Supt. Kidder of Glendive-"l
want to extend my hearty con
gratulations to you and your bask-
etball team in the splendid show
ing they made in the state tour

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. on your
excellent showing at the state
tournament. l happened to be
there and enjoyed seeing your
boys in action. At first we did
not think that Wolf Point would
make much of a showing, but the
boys rose to the occasion as they
went along"

." have just received your letter
of congratulation. / want to thank
you sincerely for this manifesto
ton of the true spirit of sports
manship. Let me also say that we
won from a most worthy oppon-
ent. During the first half of the
game, when your enthusiasm was
at it's highest, ours was at its
lowest, so far as the champion
ship was concerned, but ours
came during the third and fourth
quarters.
Your boys were real sports. 1t
was u plan this morning to
bring your boys out on the plat
form at the station and give fiji
teen rahs, but with a mob of
seven or eight hundred people on
the platform, it was impossible to
do anything-not even keep the
crowd back. Again, we thank you,
your team and Coach Boe."

at seems that you are headed for
much bigger things, and you are
rightfully entitled to the best we

fairs and I think that the associ-

proud of you.
I intended to attend the school
board meeting in Billings, but
changed my mind.
What l really want to do is to
congratulate you on the fine rec
ord your basketball team made
this year, and the unusual record
in the state tournament, and also
the fact that you have two men
on the all-state team. / wish that
you would personally extend my
congratulations to Bechtel and
Weeks.

Supt. Byrnes of East Troy,
Wisconsin writes: "Congratula-
tons upon your fine team. | can
just believe that enthusiasm and
spirit is running high in your
town and school. l only regret +
that you were not fortunate 7
enough to get first honors. I'm
doubtedly, the team that rated
first was no better, but, perhaps,
they got the breaks" a
