By a two to one decision, they were declared the win ners in the contest with the Wheeler county high school in Fossil last night and the glad news was receiv ed in this city over the telephone this morning. The Judges of the debate were all from The Dalles. Pendleton was represented in the contest by James Hartwell, leader; Claude Hampton, first colleague, and Chester Fee, second colleague and they supported the affirmative of the question: "Resolved, That further ma terial increases in the United States navy are desirable." The outcome of this debate is but another link in the long chain of vic tories won by the local high school debaters. Onlv once in three years TRACK MEET HERE NEXT TUESDAY The only track meet to be held in Pendleton this year will be pulled off next Tuesday afternoon when the athletes of the different classes of the high school contest for the lnter-class championship and incidentally for places on the team that .will represent Pendleton in the annual county meet which will be held in Athena on April 29. In addition to the high school events there will be a number of races between grade school athletes inas much as the county meet is divided in to divisions and Pendleton must have representatives from each. Coach Breithaupt has been at work developing some good men in every event for several weeks and he Is very well pleased with the prospects. Uojien will of course take all of his events for he is without a peer in have they tasted the dregs of defeat; the northwest in the distance runs nn l nn :hnt occasion, thev were con- "ul "- "''- " i - testing for the state championship v.iih tne Grants Pass high school af ter having vanquished every team in several districts. Last year, they wero more successful and climbed to the topmost round of the ladder when j . . . . . 1 1 In! mey uei'-'iuea r-ugeue mgii u the final contest for the champion ship cup. Thus for two years in suc cession did they get to the finals in the interscholastic debates which are held under the supervision of the Uni versity of Oregon, a feat never accom plished by any other school in the state. The boys are well on the way to another most successful year, hav ing the scalps of both La Grande and Wheeler county at their belts. Their next forensic battle will be with Ba ker to decide the championship of eastern Oregon. The same question as in ths Fossil debate will be ar jued. The unusual success of the Pendle ton high school in debate during the past three years Is a splendid tribute to Principal A. C. Hampton, who has acted as coach and director of the boys each year, and who has worked most assidiously in preparing the Pen dleton side of many questions for issue. Student Plrvt lVt'ltoon. Under the direction of Prof. I1-n;,- I'relthKupt, agricultural students a "the hi.a!i school are today getting a little pnu'tluil experience. They r.iv planting five acres on the asylum tract we.-t of tho city to potatoes and pi omise they will raise a crop or as tiothsome tubers as ever came out of the earth. Mrs. Alexander's Aunt Dead. Mrs. It. Monro, an aunt of Mrs. R. Alexander of this city, died at Lewis ton , Idaho, yesterday afternoon. She was a sister of the mother of Mrs. Alexander and was a resident of Lewlston for SO years, being one of a well known family of that place. The funeral is to occur tomorrow afternoon. Heirs Win Their Suit. After beln out but half an hour. the jury in the case of Joseph Parra- zo et al vs. Women or oodcrart re turned a verdict for the plaintiff at 2:30 and the well known order will have to pay the $1000 Insurance which Mrs. Josephine Goodall carried on her life in that order. The case was hard fought one, occupying over two days in the taking or testimony. 1 1 General Manager J. P. O'Brien It now l I casting about for the most suitable location, says a story In the Journal. Mr. O'Brien waa in Pendleton yes terday and looked Into the possibility of securing- the vacation of some streets that will be required In hand line the additional traffic and the equipment, and It is understood that the Pendleton Commercial club has gone on record na ready to work In harmony with and assist the railroad company in every way possible. The line between 1'ortiand ana Pendleton has been greatly improved so that much quicker time is now maintained than was possible a year ago. O. O. Chapman, manager of tho Portland Commercial club, returned from Pendleton this morning after having delivered an address to the reorganized Pendleton Commercial association Wednesday evening. "Pendleton is aiming for a greater city," said Mr. Chapman, "and they are going to get it. The growth of the t-lty has been light in the past 10 years because of the fact that it is surrounded by a large wheat country where the land owners Instead of re ducing have added to their holdings by buying out their neighbors. "Pendleton has been quiet for some time, but Is not dead," Mr. Chapman continued. "The commercial club ts now interesting Itself In having Pen dleton made the new division point oh the O.-W. R. & N., the building of the Coyote cutoff compelling Its removal from Umatilla. Only Ono Election Needed. That only one special election will be neded for the voting of bonds to provide a mountain water system for Pendleton is declared by lty Attor ney J. R. Raley. Attention Is called hv Mr. Ralev to the fact that under the initiative bill as drafted the city council will be ctven the power to is sue a $200,000 bond Issue for the pur pose of providing a gravity water sup ply. Therefore it will not be necessary to hold a second special election after the people once vote upon the subject. BIRTHDAY PARTY HELD AT ECHO exciting, especially as all second place men qualify for the team. Sheldon Taylor is fast developing into a sprinter and there are many who be lieve before the season is over he will take the short dashes from Captain ( Gordon. However. Gordon is show ing up exceptionally well and it will be a fleet footed athlete that defeats him this year. There is much rivalry between the different grade schools of the city and the races which the youngsters will run will not be the least excit ing. A cup has been offered to the grade school making the highest num ber of points at the Athena meet, which fact has given an additional impetus to the local aspirants. Altogether Tuesday there will be about thirty events in which 7o con testants will be entered. The meet will be held at Roundup park, which is in fine condition for making fast time.
