Valtey athletic officials expressed disbe lief and questioned Coach Mrie Stewart's intentions. They hinted that perhaps PHS was afraid to meet the Valley ciub. Adding to tension was the fact 1 that the meetlr.ar cf the V-o schools ! at Valley in 194? was forfeited by the scheduled home team be- ' cause of a :.u epidemic. Truth is that the Eastern Nebr aska conference is on its last lesrs. It is rapidly disintegrating. The po sition it holds in respect to other pr-ep loops is the very lowest. The conference lacks keen competition, proper publicity and enthusiasm of sponsors. Plattsmouth. a big power in the circuit, is net fearful cf the future Sentiment here is not against en-', largemer.t of the loop which would call for, north and South divisions with a late playoff for the cham- ! pionship. This is the system used : bv the larger schools in the nrep ' Pig Ten. Bv iocn Fridav workmen had put the field into the best shape it has been all season. It had dried out and nice white chalk lines made it look very football-iike.A little rain ruined all that. At 5:"0 i: was a swamp. Grand Island has almost racn- team deteated.
