A resolution from Carbondale to

When the report Of the scale

President Petrey, made an appeal
for support OF the international or

said, had been incorporated almost
verbatim In the report. AS soon a.

CASH RESIGNS
Continued from page one,

whereby the bonded indebtedness
maturing a year hence will be cared
for, and the strictest economy prac
ticed carrying on the work, In har
mony with the present financial
stringency.
At the close OF the meeting, al.
ter all the reports were In, and the
board had expressed itself as being
convinced that the present condi.
ton Of the building and wide
scope Of the work being done had
justified every dollar that had been
expended. the secretary read u
communication from A. j. Cash,
tho general secretary rendering his
resignation. The communication
was discussed quito freely, aud
since It was known to the board
that Mr.. Cash had turned down
two very flatterlng offers in the
past year In order to continue In
Fairmont, the resignation was &C.
cepted. AS an expression of the con
fidencc OF the board In Mr.. Cash
no was voted two months salary,
commencing April 1. At this point
the meeting developed into an old
fashioned Methodist testimony
meeting, every man present ex.
pressing his confidence In Mr..
Cash as having put the Y. NJ. c.
A. ION the map" in Falrmont as
no other man has ever done.
Because of the Illness Of Mrs.
Cash, Mr.. Cash was not able to
be at the meeting. Consequently,
the president OF the board, Clar-
ence D. Robinson. appointed a
comittee composed of Messrs.
Seyferth, Henry. Thomas. Bloom
Smith and Bloomfield to visit Mr..
Cash, and convey to him the action
Of the board. This committee
visited Mr.. Cash at the close OF
the meeting, and after bolng told
of the action OF the board Mr..
Cash expressed his deep apprecia-
ton Of the cooperation he had en-
ioyed In the past three and a half
years with the board OF directors
and with the general public.
Messrs. Seyferth, Maurer, and
Cole were appointed a committee
on ways and mans, their specified
function being to have oversight OF
all the activities Of the Y. NJ. C.
A. until a successor to Mr.. Cash
is secured.

Fairylew basketball fans are
seeking to have a game arranged
between Fuirview High Schoo
and Buckhannon High School Il

weeks at Clarksburg TO decide the
tie that exists in the seasons
games between Nthc two institu
tons. Fairview was defeated on
the Buckhannon floor, and Buck
harmon on the Fairview floor and
each won q tournament In which
both teams were contestants
There is no doubt that such a
game would attract fans from ali
over the state and would net a
nice sum for the athletic funds Of
the two competing high schools.
Buckhannon and Fairylew are
looked upon by many as the two
best teams in the state with little
to choose between them. so that
such a contest would be sure 10 at,

Just how the proposition will be
taken in Buckhannon Is problem.
aticsl, but 1t is hardly likely that
Coach Shroyer will consent TO the
battle, because he is likely well
satisfied that his team escaped
meeting Fairview In the state
games and does not desire to risk
post season game after having
won the state championship.
II would be a splendid thing II
the game could be arranged. The
FairYiew officials have taken the
matter up with Buckhannon but
have received no reply yet.
The following selt.explanatory
letter was received this morning
by the sporting editor OF The West
Virginian from G. c. Tustin, sup.
erintendent OF schools In Paw Paw
District:
Local basketball fans are anx.
ious to meet Buckhannon's High
School basketball team with the
local team in a basketball game in
Clarksburg some time within the
next two weeks TO play off the tie
which has resulted in the seasons
encounters. Mr.. Copp has already
written Coach Shroyer in regard
to such a game and would like
TO have the support OF your paper
in arranging the contest.
"Fairyiew has won one game
from Buckhannon and the valley
championship in which Buckhan.
non was entered, while Buckhan.
non won one game from Fairview
and the state championship in
which Fairyiew was entered. The
result is complex tie. The third
game will create quite a bit OF
interest and would likely attract
fans from all over the state"
