La Grande Is not long to be with
out an athletic association of pome
ort. The young men of the city -who
are athletically Inclined, will be met
Monday evening to discuss and per
haps formulate some method of pro
cedure which tn the end will mean an
athletic club that la something bet
. ter thin th HIIm nt th nt Txl
" Grande can boast of.
One Suggested Plan.
There Is now under discussion one
plan which is somewhat e'gantle, but
If undertaken In the right spirit, will
eventually be a successful one. It
is simply to proceed along lines that
aro up-to-date and practical. If to
have an athletlo club at all, the city
and Its younger citizens cannot afford
to have a mediocre one. To do thlH,
it .Is absolutely necessary for the club
to have an Instructor, at least a part
of the year. About the middle of
August the club Should be In running
order.
An athletic Instructor should be
hired at that time and his services
maintained until the basketball Heason
closes, or about April 1, He should be
an all-around athlete, capable to take
charge of any phase of Indoor or out
door sports, who will devote his entire
To commence his day's work he
could conduct 'a gymnasium class of
ladles and girls in the afternoons. At

4. a juvenile class of school boys could
gain all the desirable benefit of gym
nasium work under the efficient in
struction of one who knows how to
teach it. At 6 . his evening's work
would commence with' the regular
membership of the club. GymnaRtlc
classes could be held for stated peri
ods, and then the varied, sports in
their respective seasons could be taken
up.
Football would be under his coach
ing, basketball played according to his
instructions, handball, indoor baseball,
boxing, wrestling and all the other
phases of the sport would each receive
Its just quota of attention.
' The Finance.
To finance such a project seems, on
the face of It, too strenuous for this
of doing these things can readily be
hired. for not to exceed tlf rp I
month for the time he I here, nail
rent, on se viral building now in sight
which are suitable, would not run over
135 per month. Expenses of a mis
cellaneous nature would bring the to
tal to something llko $175 at the most.
To clear this expenditure, a member
ship of an even 100 at $1 per member,
would handle a large share of it. If
the various sports be conducted oh a
winning basis, could not net $75 per
month, the sports had not better be
tried. ,
Meeting Monday Night.
On next Monday evening at 8 o'clock
all young men of the city are Invited
to attend a meeting at The Observer
office. At that time some tangible
scheme will be hatched and adopted
for the welfare of athletics tn this city.
