The lack of recreational and en- tertainment facilities in the Groton Borough has led Mike to believe that a Bowling Alley and Skating Rink would go nicely on this suit able corner lot right In the heart of the Borough. In spite of store and other commercial enterprises in the immediate neighborhood, the Borough zoning officials have turned a thumbs down on his de- mands for a permit to build, al- leging that this Is not a conner cial district and Mike will have to look elsewhere for his site. With a store across the street and an- other around the corner on Baker Avenue, we are inclined to disagree with the zoning officials, in view of the fact Tree Nursery, located on the proposed site of the Bowling Alley Skating Rink, completes the picture of business district. -

Lote Word on the
Championship Game

Negotiations were started Mon
day with local school officials con-
tacting Hamilton and asking that
the game be played here, agreeing
to figure large enough to pay the
4 expenses of the visiting team. Ham
llton officials talked the matter over
and Tuesday the officials of the two
schools conferred on the matter. At
this time Hamilton clarified the
possibility as to the time of the
game by stating that with three
more games to play the champion
ship game could not be held before
November IS or 16 They also ex-
pressed themselves as wanting the
game to be played there, despite
the fact it was pointed out to them
that they had the championship
game there last year, defeating
Whitefish 40 They suggested the
decision be made by the State
Director of Football Examinations,
Professor Walter T. Scott, of the
Montana School of Mines in Butte.
Mr.. Scott, when contacted, agreed
with the Libby point of view, that
since the championship game had
been played at Hamilton last year,
and the other games for the cham
pionship for a number of years had
been held in the Bitterroot, that
the game this year should be played
on the field of the Northern Dis |
trict winner. He stated, however, |
that if the two schools could not
reach a decision that he would have
to decide by the flip of coin if
the matter was left to him.
AS matters now stand, local of
ficials are trying to convince Hamil-
ton, that since the game was played
there last year, the only fair thing
to do is come to Libby this year.
Stating that they felt sure the foot
ball fans of Libby were fair minded
so that if the game had been
played in Libby last year they
would gladly play the role of the
visitor this year. In other words,
hat we were not asking for more
han we would be willing to do
Inder the same circumstances.
