Couforonco Official and having usn
-most of tho teams In action In thd
state, having worked a great numbor
of the High School games, in nil
fairness I believe that tho North Platte
team should have at least ono man on
the list of the first and second toams.
You havot ried no doubt, to pick the
men according to tho reports but we
do not seo why North Platte should be
entirely ignored, inasmuch ns they
have defeated all comors with tho ex
ception of Lincoln.
Tho. Captain of tho local High School
team, Mr. Adams, Is In my opinion ev
ery bit as good, as tho men you have
listed for half-backs with tho possible
exception of Mr. Mahoncy, nud I be
lieve that ho Is a better man on de
fense than Mr. Mahoney. Tho local
team has defeated such teams as Scott"
Bluff, Creighton High, Grand Island,
Kearney and lost only one game, n
