Answer to Auburn Herald.
To The Tribune: The Auburn iler
uhl of lust week says that the Auburn
High school extended a very pressing
invitation to Falls City High school
for a game of basket ball. The in
vitation was reeleved on December
25th and was for December 29. The
Falls City basket ball team had just
returned from a trip and the boys
were tired. Then, also, we had
rented out our gym and had no place
in which to practice, and I knew well
that it. would be difficult to defeat
the Auburn High School, with one of
our best men off the team, and we
would have to have some practice*.
For those above reasons, and
these only, did 1 refuse to play Au
burn. Not once did the question of
a “square deal” enter my head, for
the ' manager of the Auburn High
School basket ball teams had prom
ised us all of our expcuses and to
get an outsider to act as referee. 1
also know that all of the hard feel
ing, between Auburn and Falls City,
was not hard feeling between the
Falls City High School and the Au
burn High School, hut between the
Auburn Herald and others outside of
the High School.
If the Herald stops its roasting,
and all else goes well, the Auburn
people will see the Falls City bask
et ball team on Auburn's court, Sat
urday. .lam.arc- 15. with A. .1. Dud
den as referee, and ready for a good
