F.a Grande Girl Heaped With Praise for MuMi-al Ability. v One of the -most pleating musical events of the week was th recital given in the college chapel on Thurs day evening by the pupils of Miss Harriet Esther Young. . Miss Young has long been . recognized at one o'f the most talented musicians in the clyt and has met with marked suc cess In her two years as a teacher ot piano. This year she has a large class and her gifts as a teacher were shown In the success which her pupils met with in their first recital ot the year on Thursday evening, i Every num ber on the program was well received. Especially pleasing were the two numbers played by the younger pu pils of Miss Young. The charming "Spring Duet" rendered on the piano by Miss Maysle Penrose and Miss Margaret Reynolds appealed to all in the audience. The effect was similar with the "Hunting Song" from Gur- lltt, played by another small maiden Miss Margaret Paxton. Walla Walla Union.

The big game, the one which La Grande followers entertained fond hopes of winning, was captured by the local club girls from the Pendle ton high school by a score of li to 10. The latter team won a tie game here recently by a score of 6 to i The La Grande club boys were not o fortunate, for with but little prac tice and no actual experience on-the floor, went against a team of state championship caliber, which out classed the locals in many phases or the game. Don Scott went out of the game because of injuries, after the first half and was replaced by Ber nle. McMIcken displaced caytor i r.,.d in the second half. The change In line-up failed to help mat ters much. However, in the last of the second half the La Grande boys dropped their defensive tactics and became more aggressive with the re suit that Chllders was able to score th nnlv field goal made by La Grande. From free throws, La Grande netted 8 other points, while the final score for Tondlcton at the end of the game was 25. The Pendleton team has had more experience, but La r.rnnde has a chance of captnrinc laurels with additional practice, which will be had hereafter. The girls' game was a sensational one. with honors in favor of the La nt-onrto nulntet throughout. Spectac ular free goal throwing by Hattle Mc- Murtay It resrfonsible for the docis i... rnre. So closely did the Pendle ton guards camp on the trail of the La Grande forwards, that attempts i field goals were few and far between. Miss McMurray did, however, land one field goal, as did also a Pendleton player. With one field goal each, and 10 free throw goals for La Grande and 8 of them for Pendleton, the fin- Brusseis Net I."

LaCrandc Oregon al score stood 12 to 10 in La Grande's favor. The visiting team showed improved form over the last game. For one brief minute the almost perfect ma chine work broke and Pendleton scored a fiedl goal.' The patch was healed instantly and from then on Pendleton girls were either held to an even break or outclassed. This was especially true in the second half when remarkably clever aggressive work by Floy Massee kept the ball continually in La Grande's territory. Ethel Gulling was handicapped with slight illness, but the score sheet fails to record an error In her playing. Ruby Thelsen played her usual splen did game at center. At forward Frances Massee and Hattle McMurray were in the game every minute and played an errorless game. A bad taste was given the girls' game by persistent interference and seemingly purposely ungentlemanly conduct on the part of the umpire. His actions smacked of babyism. . The umpire who officiated for Pen dleton" In the boys' game- was very satisfactory to all. A delightful reception was tendered the visitors at the Armory following the game. tin HE CathoDo onorcta.
