Ontario was the dark horse In the Eastern Oregon track and field meet at Baker City, In which La Grande failed to show much strength, and which was anybody's meet until the relay was run, By winning 16 points, Ontario figured consptcluously and gave the death-scare to both Baker City and Pendleton all too frequently. When either of the leading teams needed a point to gain a lead over the other, Ontario generally managed to steal In and carry off an honor or two, making things extremely uncer tain all around. Especially In the hurdles, was this true. Moody of On tario was leading, and would ' un doubtedly have defeated Jay had he not fallen on a hurdle. The fall was disastrous to Baker City and it gave Pendleton the meet. La Grande lost a place In the broad lump by the difference between three-eighths and three-fourths of an Inch. Reynolds ran a remarkable race In the low hurdles. He fell twice. but even at that finished well up In front. Young comes back as the team's only salvation from utter defeat. By winning an easy third in the pole vault and taking second in the high hurdles he placed La Gradne on the score sheet. Walters and Irwin of Island City, gave their team a total of 7 points. Walters won the quarter handily and pulled a third In the 100. Irwin, landed a third In the fast half mile event. The Summary. The Individual score was as follows; Orle Jay, 11; Arthur Means, 9; Les ter Means, 8; Chester Gordon, (; Nat Kimball, 5; Cliff Turner, 8; Glenn Storle, 1. Moody of Ontarolo tied A.
