The board OF control OF the
high school association ar e
scratching their heads this geek
and wondering how best to sat
isfactorily put together the jig
saw puzzle presented TO them
by Missoula High School offic-
ials in the form of protest ag
ainst two members of the Butte
high school team entered this
week in the interscholastic track
meet at Missoula Two colored
boys, brothers, Herbert and Hia-
watha Brown, formerly of White
hall are viewed as top notchers
and possible winners of several
honors in the coming contests,
having given evidence of their
ability before, when aligned with
Whitehall. The boys now living
ia Butte; entered high school
there, became interested in ath-
letics and were selected to re-
present their school at the meet.
Missoula contends the boys are
over the age limit according to
rules. having been born, the re-
cords show, September II, 1911,
and May IA, 1910, respectively.
and that the "so-called" birth
certificate made out in 1881 af-
ter the boys became athletic
prospects should not be allowed
over the school records taken
from year to year. Last month"
said Principal Scott Fries, 1.-The
state board of control ruled the
Brown brothers eligible to COM
pete in track events this spring,
so we hardly feel that Missoula
should become so perturbed.
Supt. w. J. Lowry of Whitehall
said. 1T has been proved to the
satisfaction of county and state
officials that the Brown broth
ers are still eligible for inter
scholastic a h etic competition
under the rule age. We handled
their records until they moved
to Butte last June and we are
happy to say that they are scho-
lars of sufficient ability to be
finishing their twelfth, or high
school senior years work in the
eleventh year since they first en-
rolled"
The Pleasant Hour Club was
the guest of Mrs. Ida Welsh at
the residence of Mrs. M A. Low
cry last week. Preparations are
going forward for the meeting
of the federation here in July.
From reports throughout the
state it looks as If the depres-
sion did not overlook the wo-
mems clubs, as ii appears at
this time several of the clubs
are limping lamely and others
are inactive. The women have
succeeded in doing good work
through their organized efforts
and should not let the work drag
row. Revlvication of every mem
Der in the state should be the
goal from now on to July.
What is the trouble with st.
James? Does she need an oper-
alton? What is her ailment?
What has caused the disintegra-
ton of the young choir that
once proved such a boon to Sun
day night meetings? Are pre-
sent conditions caused by the
lack of leadership or too much
leadership? A peep behind the
scenes may disclose the cause.
Why not raise the curtain?
