IHf Mill (HUB -Off Tho Union county track meet has been definitely called for for various reasons. The chief obstacle to this heretofore annual athletic event In this county Is the fact that no rare tracks aro located sufficiently near to either Union or La Grande to gunrnn tee expense money. The gate en trance fee and livery hire as a rule throws the spectators' expense to such a figure that few care to expend the money. To linker Friday. Next Friday the La Grande track team leaves for Baker City, where the annual eastern Oregon' track and field meet will be held. Many of the rooters and followers are planning to leave on Kuturduy morning. La Grande's chances to land a, close second place or perhaps first place In this meet are excellent. In the try outs at Walla Walla. La Grande en tries showed up favorably with other teoms of eastern Oregon, excepting Pendleton. There Is litigation now In' progress as to the eligibility of Jv. the star Pendletonlan. The declamation contest will be held on Friday night. New York's "Flnot" Parade New York. May I.
