champions of the 1921 tourney. It is
very doubtful if there will be a team
that won a class championship last
year that will repeat in the same class
this year. Some such as Ravenna may
win in a higher class, however. Ne

to 1, by Grand Island in this year's
tournament, has a record of having
won the championship five times in ten
years. Beatrice has won twice, and
Geneva, the team that conquered the
locals, has won once. This was when
Attorney E. L. Meyer, a local attor

also coached the high school team here,
the last time that they won the west

year. ' -.
The increase in the scope of the
tournament is shown in figures setting
out twenty-one teams as participating
in the first meet in 1911, with Beatrice
the champion. Omaha Central won the
1912 tourney and Geneva won the title
from forty-four teams entered in 1913.
Sixty-four entered in 1914, won by
Lincoln. Classification started in 1915,
when seventy teams entered, Lincoln
again winning the cup. Beatrice came
