Now alignment of Southwest

ing taltted and thought lately, fol-
It)wing :: ]'(,cent. meeting or' the
Sotthwe.*t Washington Princil)als
and Coaches AssociatiOn at Con-
trails
The plan in mind is to split the
present no,-thorn mid southern div-
isions into three Five-team sec-
tions instead of the pre.ent two.
adding St. Martins for the 15th
member,
The divisions would be.as fol-
lows(

ion.

mend, (;heballs atd Rt, Mar-
tln.
No. $Longview, Ktlo, Vtm-
t,ouver, Bat tl@ Ground and Cam-
as,
The idea comes partly from the
fact that the Solthwest diatrtct
is allotted three entries in the
I state tournament, with second
place teams of the present two
divisions playing off for the third
position. Under the proposed new
alignment each division winner
would go to the tournament with-
out engaging in any inter,division
playoffs.
Two other factors, among sew
eral, enter into tle arguments
favoring the proposal, one being
the poor balance in the present
northern division which is cam-
posed of so-called "Big' Four" and
"Little Four" groups with the for-
mer dominating the latter rther
strongly and consistently over the
years the divisio)t has bee)t so
comprised.
The other fad,tar is the ob-
Jection southwest Class B lea-
gues have to competing with St.
Martins, whose etrolhnent Is
made tti) entirely of hays. The
(;lass B leagues contend that
even thouglt St. Martins' enroll-
ment t(da is actually less tha;z
tLhe CI B )rmximum it still
gives silent twice t many boys
as Class B s4,ltools of approxi-
mately th(s same size from
whi(,h to draw material for Its
teams. There's legit' in tlutt,
tmquestional)ly.
Sent iment for the proposal
seems to be fairly strong and
probably meets with approval in
ahnost 'every sector except at St.
Mrtins mid here at: Shelton.
Such a division wot]ld be a ter-

It would be u shame now that

four games separate the teams
