SCOTTSBLUFf ALSO
HAS A SORE SPOT

Thing of Alliance Tenni
Following the highly edifying ex
ample of the Bayard Transcript, the.
BcottflblufT Siar.Hemld proceeds to
exhibit to all the world another sore
toe. After declaring that Scottabluff
has no chance for the championship,
the Star-Herald says that the "next
best thing" is to see the honor go
to a "town in the valley," and inti
mates that a number of people from
that city will boon! for Bayard.
. The Scoltsbluff newspaper doesn't
admire Coach Prince, apparently.
After the Alliance-Scoltsbluff game
it cried. "Wolf, wolf," for a while,
like the youih in the fable, but met
no encouragrtnent until the Bayard
team didn't have quite as good luck
here as It expected. Now, backed by
Bayard, it talks grandiloquently of
"barring Alliance" or "barring foot,
ball" In western Nebraska.
It might as well be understood, at
the outset, that football ia not so
peaceable game as ping pong, and
that even at the colleges, In the
stress of scrimmages, players have
been known to neglect to use their
powder puffs as often as they should.
This is, of course, highly regrettable,
and something should be done about
it. Coach Prince should see to It
that tbe Alliance team, in mixing
with teams from the valley, should
avoid disarranging their purple
neckties.
Here's the latest howl:
"Scottsbluft Is, of course, out of
the championship race, and the next
best thing of course is to see a val
ley town successful In securing the
honor, especially if it takes in a ter
ritory composed of the entire west
ern portion of the state. There will,
it is thou ht, be many Bayard boost,
era from this city.
"Incidentally there was pome crit
icism of. this paper anent the write
up of the Alltance-Scottsbluff foot,
ball game played here earlier in the
season, in which the local team was
the winner. The boys of the local
team made no "holler" but spectators
of the game were loud in the pro-

Alliance. Now comes lh Bayard
papers, which go the Star-Herald
several better when It comes to call,
ing attention to the unsportsmanlike
conduct of Alliance coach ar.d play
ers in the Bayard-Alliance game.
"If Alliance persists In ber present
tactics It will result In one of two
things: Either that team will be
blackballed by the association, or th
game of football will be barred in the
west part of the state. Football is
a rough game at best when playid
as it should be, but wh-..i l pee"'

mertly to gang' certain playen and
to deliberately Inflict such injuries
that players shall be 'put out of
businoRs,' then it s time to call u
halt. If such methods are dilrfl,
why not save; time and trouble by
ou tilting tleven lads with san-lbaps
and billies and tur nthem Iooh" to
'do their beet,' or worst.
"Sidney, the latest team to co up
against Alliance, won the conttat by
a score of 40 to 7 on last Friday, !u
the list of casualties is as yet nit
learned."
LEGION MAKES PLANS
FOR ARMISTICE DAY
Members of Alliance post No. 7,
American Legion, turned out for the
first meeting of the new year In good
numbers at the city hall Thurslay

Armistice day, which comes on No
vember 11, and the members of the
post decided to give a big dance, to
which the public will be admitted.
The Lowry & Henry roof garden
has been secured for next Thursday
evening, and the festivities, "while
perhaps somewhat different than on
the same day In 1918. will be In
the same spirit.

the dance: Ed Iteardon, chairman;
J. B. Miller, K. V. Black. D. C. Brad
