Parowan, Utah, Feb. 81. 1922.
To whom It may concern:
I am writing this letter in reply to
one written and published by Coach
Jack Christensen concerning the Dixie
B. A. c. basket ball game Of Feb. 4th,
held at Dixie, in which he intimates
that influenced the referee to be I'M
fair and prejudiced against to B. A.
C.
The statement made by Mr.. Chris
!tesen in his protest to the effect
that I held secret conference with
Mr.. Adams is false and erroneous.
did not discuss the teams in general
or any player of either team with Mr..
Adams.
CLIFFORD EMPY.
Iron County record. [volume] (Cedar City, Utah) 1893-1982, 1922-02-24

from him that unless he desisted from
coaching his team from the side lines
fouls would be called on him.
Since this incident the b. A. G.
coach discovers that I am unfair in
my refereeing. Although Mr.. Christ
ensen states to the Athletic Associa-
ton that I was appointed by the
Division Representative to referee the
above game this Is net 80 as Mr..
Christensen ask me and was very in
sistant that / should referee this
game and also would not give his eon-
sent TO having an umpire. Although
I told him 1t was desired by the state
officials that two men be used in all
games wherever it was possible.
The following sums up the many un.
fair things which am accused Of
committing in the protest and the
statement TO the Athletic Association
as given in the Tribune, Continually
took the ball from b. A. C. players
on out-of-bounds and held ball--Al-
lowed the Dixie team to hold, block
and hack B. A. c. on attempts to
play their signals--Called an ava
lanche Of fouls on B. A. G. during
the last five minutes Of game--Put
Salisbury out on personal fouls with
out reason--Held a secret conference
with Mr.. Empy, and had to have Par
owan fans call my attention to FOULS"
This appears to be a formidable
list. Let US examine few of them
as shown by the results Of the game.
Is it reasonable to suppose that after
eight years Of contentious refereeing
l would stoop to the above tatics to
win game for Dixie, in which I was
only interested as lover Of clean
sport. Parowan team had already
defeated both B. A. c. and Dixie. Mr..
Christensen had insisted on my refer
eeing and has stated since. the game
to Division Representative Fenton in
the presence Of others that he knew
I was fair.
Official score Of fouls in this game
were as follows; Dixie personal IL
total Is. B. A. C.--personal z
total 12. Twelve fouls would hardly
be called an avalanch, besides more
fouls were called in the first half
than in the second.
In the previous game between these
teams played in Cedar City. Jan. 26th,
at which / was referee, official score
shows 23 fouls on Cedar and II on
Dixie. B. A. G. won this game and
there was no kick, although 6 more
fouls were called on b. A. C. than on
Dixie.
Do you approved of the use made by
Mr.. Christensen and the B. A. G. Of
the fact that Mr.. Empy walked out
and conversed with me during slime
out" between halves to brand me as
unfair and crooked? Would such
evidence be considered for moment
in Court Of Justice.
Quoted from the b. A. c. protest.
"Paul Hafen one Of the Dixie players.
but not In said game, made statement
to Mr.. Adams in the presence Of Jack
Christensen to the effect that Nc
Arthur Of the Dixie team attacked
Salisbury of the B. A. C. committing
a personal foul, Adams blew his
whistle ran over and called the foul
on Salisbury instead Of Macarthur"
Almost any close observer of bas-
ket ball and the work Of a referee
would know that the above could not
take place during the game and If Mr..
Christensen means that Hafen related
the incident after the game I wish to
say that Mr.. Nichols. principal OF
Dixie Normal College has given Dis

We are very sorry to have received

protest to Mr.. Moss concerning the
game between us and the B. A. G..
February 9TH on the basis Of your
officiating.
We desire you to know that our
faculty and students and townspeople
are entirely satisfied with your ref
erecting. We have both lost and won
under your ability and fairness.
We feel you should not consider
seriously the protest Of Mr.. Chris

Mr.. J. E. Moss, President

Salt Lake City, Utah.
Dear Sir:
l have before me the protest en-
tered by the B. A G. by Jack Chris
Jensen, Coach, against the basket ball
game between b. A. C. and Dixie
Normal College, played in st. George,
Feb al, at which I acted as referee.
Also l have q report on the above
game published in the Salt Lake Tri-
bune Of Feb. goth. and taken from
allegations made to tho High School
Athletic Association by Mr.. Chris
Jensen.
II it were merely matter Of Mr..
Christensen's personal opinion Of my
work and it had only been sent to
the officials interested I would not
have felt 1t necessary to answer the
same, rs wherever Mr.. Christensen
and I are known personally would
not be afraid Of his attact on my
character. but when a school Of such
prominence and standing as the B.
A. C. will make and publish in coun-
ty and state papers such accuations
IL appears to be my duty to send you

who are only given one side Of q
question are very apt to form wrong
judgments.
Christensen states in the protest
that after was elected to attend the
school. for. referees in. December
they thought I could live above local
interests but in this they were mis-
taken.
Let me just state that I have re-
forced games for Mr.. Christensen
for the last eight years and it APP
pears that he discovered my unfair
ness for the first time at this game
One reason I am led to believe
why he made this discovery was the
following incident which took place
at the game under protest.
Mr.. Christensen was seated among
the officials Of the game and after
the first half the Dixie coach ask
to have him removed to another seat
as he, (Christensen), had actually
fired the gun which had ended the
first half. I did this and during the
naxt half uas also rnnnelled 10 in.

Dear Sir: With your permission I
want 10 write few words concern
ing twilight ball in town and also
say a few words about the game the
other night between the Cookmtn
and Mt. Salem teams at Eighteenth
and Van Buren,. am partisan OF
neither team but a ball fan who
goes to see every good game. I came
from away down oi the east side TO
see these two teams battle. saw
them twice before this season and
they were real battles. But what
] want 10 bring out 20 these teams
playing twilight ball IS 20 be out to
the playing grounds early" as they
can't expect to play any more than
five innings when they do not start
until away after $50.
The Mt. Salem team arrived at the
grounds at s.s5 and after few pre-
limlnaries such as tossing the ball
around a few times. the game com
menced and Il was a good game IN
III the sun started TO go down. either
team having good chance TO win.
But It took about an hour and ten
minutes for the game 50 the public
can see It was not so Ear from 8
O'Clock when the umpire called the
game. He should have called It ear
Her, but the umplrcs around town
seem 10 be half afraid 70 call these
games but 1t IS dangerous for all
participating in the national pastime
TO take a chance playing when you
cans see the ball until It is very
close to you
The sooner these teams playing
twilight ball make their players get
out SO as to start the game early, the
better 1t will be for all concerned. as
everyone knows the days are getting
shorter and twilight games sbouid
start at 6 O'clock.

surprise greeted the squad of Uni
versity of Pennsylvania footballer:
on their arrival here for early tain
ing Tuesday evening.
A short, slight. iron-gray- haired
man OF perhaps thirty or less stood
on the parade grounds dressed in the
early season regalia common to
coaches.
The candidates to a man regarded
him as a hangover from the sum
mer camping season or at best a
spectator from one of the resorts
hereabout. When Heisman greet
ed the newcomer with a "Howdye,
Hartman" the squad pricked up Its
collective ears.
Closer inspection revealed the fact
that Penn has a new end coach.
Hartman admitted that he had sign
ed up in place of Bevan. who told
Penn that he would not accept their
contract, and Heisman acknowledged
the fact that he had a new assistant.
Hartman's fun name Is Herbert
n. "Nippy" Hartman and he halls
from Wilmington. Del. where he
got his start iry the grid sport with
the High School team of that city.
He was captain in his last year.

with such well-known glariators as
Bull Lowe and Bodie Weldon. He

these two gentlemen and hopes to
impart It to the dozen or more can

experience, being director OF athletics

Hartman will take up post gradu-

He proved a big surprise.
