REDWOOD ASKED TO
ENTER TOWN TEAM
IN BASKET LEAGUE
Redwood and Renville County
Towns Plan Organization
at Morton Meeting

Redwood Falls is to be invited to
enter a team in a basketball league
now in the process of organization,
it was announced this week.
A tentative organization vas form
ed at Morton Monday evening at
which time matters relative to a
league were discussed. The opinion
of those present was favorable, and
if the enthusiasm shown at this meet
rs.sextends to towns not represented,
a league organization will become a
reality.
Because of the short notice, not all
of the proposed teams had represent
atives at the initial organization
meeting. A temporary set Of offic-
ers, Elmer Helgeson, Redwood Falls,
president, and Homer B. Hanson,
Morton, secretary and treasurer, were
elected and as soon as the necessary
number of towns have directors sell
ected, permanent organization will
be perfected.
The suggested towns for the lea
que, of which it is hoped that at least
eight will join are: Sacred Heart, Rem
vile, Olivia, Bird Island, Hector,
Fairfax, Franklin, Redwood Falls,
Wood Lake, Belview, Morgan and
Wabasso.
:. Basketball managers in these towns
have been asked either to write or
confer with the temporary officers at
an early date so that another meet
ing may be called to organize the
league in detail.

leased this week by A. P. Falk, coun-
ty treasurer.
This figure is approximately $685.
900 less than the amount collected IN
the same period last year and includ-
es some increase in delinquent taxes

ference is made up by reduced local
tax levies and by the extension OF
principal payments of ditch liens, Mr..
Falk explained. Of taxes levied this
year, 81.35 per cent were paid by
November 1.
The state took a greater amount
from the settlement than last year,
receiving $48, 438.56 as compared with
$40,942.08 last year, but all other
groups received considerably smaller
amounts. The state rate which last
year was 81 mills, this year is 1888

ly more than last year.
