will not exist much longer. Class schools in this area already have talked over plans for their own conference. The western division would comprise Sidney, Mitchell. Gering, Bayard and Chadron. They are trying to interest Lexington, Gothenburg, Broken Bow, Holdiege and Cozad in forming the eastern half of the proposed loop, according to information available to Scottsbluff high school coaches.

Scottsbluff high school football coach Bill Putman and ba.sketball coach H. Hanscom booth were confident that the conference w'ill not be operating two years from now.
