For several minutes the game progressed with honors even, but Frances Massee brought the crowd to Its feet with a pretty and clean goal from the field. With a small lead against them, Pen dleton took a noticeable brace, and ere long had a field goal, too. The home players camped on the trail of each player, for to lose sight of them a moment, meant a goal. This oc curred once In the first half, when a player broke loose. The first half ended -3 all. Kurly In the second half Pendleton scored another field goal and the wore stood 4 to 2. Spectators' grew nnYtniii as minutes passed and no change was made on the score sheet. Huttle McMurray administered a lightning shock to the crowd by throwing a thrilling goal from the side lines. This tied the score and thus the game ended, in playing off the tie Pendleton made a clean throw making the score 6 to 4. Ilefereo Popular. Referee Shockley made a splendid Impression on the spectators. His work was the fairest seen on the local floor. His spirit was faultless, but he Is responsible for the extreme rough ness which was exhibited throughout the game, Had he called fouls on both teams, early In tho game, this roughness would have disappeared and the game would have been void of the slightly undesirable features. Every minute of the game was full of fouls; they simply abounded In pro fusion. However, Mr. Shockley was fair, and while It was the general opinion that ha should have called more fouls, still the unanimous decis Proprietor. Auction Effects.

The game has cemented athletic re lations between the two teams. Both parties are pleased with the other and other games are to follow, . Players Strong. La Grande has a strong Quintet of girl players. At forward Hattle Mo Murray played a faultless game in team work and getting away from her guard. She was playing out of luck. however. Frances Massee soon tired her guard by heady and fast foot work. Both forwards were guarded so closely that opportunities to throw goal were extremely few. Ruby Thei sen at center, was pitted against a strong player of the visitors. Her strength and grit saved many goals. With more experience on the floor she gives promise of making as fast a center as there is In this portion of the state. Floy Maxsee,. the team captain, played a faultless game throughout, but was foiled in the last minute of play by a combination that she 'was unable to break and the deciding goal followed. Ethel Gulling followed her forward like a professional. Her work at breaking up plays and start ing the ball to her forwards, was su perb. Press Comments. Theatergoers who have been read ing so much for the past year of "The Man of the Hou,r," will have opportu nity of seeing Wm. A. Brady and Jos eph K. Grlsmer's production at the Steward January 21. with a special company of players and complete scenic production. In tHe New York Evening Telegram of December 5, In the review of "Tho Man of the Hour," the writer say.: "Not since the days cf "The Senator," has a play been presented with sui'h brilliant promise of success bs "The Man of the Hour." The other New Tork papers in th?'r reviews were equally fulsome. The Herald referred to the play as "a sensation." The World as "a straight from the shoul der hit." The Tribune "as one of t!i; most auspicious successes of the year." The Evening Journal as "a howling success." The News suys, "It will Inst." The Press "The Man of the Hour" Is likely to live for many years." "It Is a Buccess." The Post The Man of the Hour" fulfills an im portant and honbrablo theatrical function." "Gloriously triumphant in every detail." In the Mall, Frederk Edward McKay refers to the produc tion, "as one you had better go ill sec," and In the Telegraph Renoid Wolfe says: "Success loomed up Ilk? a big capital 'S'."

It can only be said that a site has been selected, an op tion has been secured, but the lot has not been actually purchased. The building, when erected, Is to stand adjoining E. D. Selder's candy store, on the lot opposite the Foley. This was agreed upon by the local Elks In a regular meeting last night.
