D., March 1.—Garri- son will come to Washburn next Fri- day, March 8, to play Washburn at basketball, which claims the champ- ionship of McLean county this seaso Out of six games played in the coun: the Washburn school has lost only one game and asserts that the claim of the Cole Harbor team to the champ- jonship is preposterious and prema- ture. Washburn has protested the last game played at Coal Harbor for several reasons. “It would be foolish to continue this discussion in the Tribune,” declared Captain Carl Knudtson, “but Coal Harbor does not know when to quit. It is apparent that Coal Harbor per- sists in being wrong. Take, for in- stance the statements made by Messrs Voguel and Glover about the referee. They claimed that the referee is a graduate of the University of North Dakota. Now L. M. Bettinger, regis- trar of that institution writes: “We beg to advise that he attended the university during the summer sessions of 1914 and 1915. However, he never filed credits with us or became a cdnd- idate for a degree.” “Ig referee then a graduate of the University of North Dakota? We} Wright, commanding at Camp Doni-! phan and Brigadier General L. G. Ber- ry, who commanded at the camp while; General Wright was on observation tour in France, have been called on by' Secretary Baker for reports as to howj such conditions as were found in the camp hospitals came to exist. Conditions at ‘the Camp Doniphan hospital first came into public notice through a letter read by Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the senate military committee, in the senate. The letter was written by Hestwood’s fath- PARADE HONORS - SELECTED BOYS Eleven Leave in Answer to the World’s Battlecry of Free- dom, Amid Cheers ‘ Marching in gallant, if unmilitary| style into the home guard armory last night, eleven boys who have been selected to serve the flag, bade good- bye to friends. . “We'll escort them to the depot, any- how,” someone shouted, And they did. ‘From the armory to the N. P. depot, marched a gay martial line of men, part of whom were leaving for less happy, grim pursuits of war. The Elk|* band had been notified. It appeared a few minutes later, before the parade gone very far, and struck up the airs of America. The steps became swifter but more’ soldiery. Then a crowd of ordinary folks formed in line behind the parade nucleus. It. grew. Hundreds of people were in the line hospital without making known vfact that he spi when the parade reached the depot. and. music the think not'and we assert that other statements of Messrs. Vogel and Glov- er are about as reliable. The Wash- burn boys had the highest regard for the aforesaid referee. They felt they could depend on him for a _. square deal. It was for that reason they did not take an official along with them to Coal Harbor on the last ‘trip, also to save Coal Harbor that much ex- pense. That point was definitely und- erstood in advance. They were sur- thus surprised to find that trust be- trayed, “As to the missing towels, that is the most absurd feature of the whole business. two towels and the Washburn boys take them? Our boys were given royal treatment at the hotel and’ we still have the friendliest feelings for the Coal Harbor boys but sonfebody, with enthusiasm than judgment. “We have played Coal Harbor three games; two at Coal Harbor and one at Washburn. It is the turn of Coal ably Bismarck, and thus determine of McLean county.” night stars shine more brightly and the moon seem to smile in a half- happy, half-sad way. Sighs and Cheers Friends of many years were parting, possibly for the last time. Mothers were giving up their sons to.America, fathers stood stiffly erect and tried to appear self composed. ; But there were tears in smiling eyes, and sobs in cheering throats. The passengers on the train caught the spirit of patriotism, which is more contagious among Americans than la- erippe. Nearly a thousand voices bade godspeed to the boys selected to serve the flag.
