ISPORT1NG NEWS Sbortvof material In the first place, green timber lnthe second place and a majority of the team lacking the fun ' damental principle that makes a wln ningteam In the third "place, Coach Zimmerman faces anything but an encouraging prospect with the local high school football team. Several im portant gamea are drawing near, and unless the players ginger up it wlll.be a losing proposition. With one excep tion the team is well balanced. The squad has no fullback and unless Wal do Geddes matriculates at once and joins the squad It Is doubtful if that weak place will . be effectually bol stered up until the big games are here. Geddes would fall into the fullback shoes very nicely and friends of the team hope to see him In school by Monday morning. . " ; New football the forward pass and onside kicking has been aptly seiz ed by the entire squad. Forward pass es are received and handled with ease and precision that Indicates the team wlllfj.able to negotiate gains with out tiuch danger of penalties.' New and fancy plays, patterened after, the outline that Walter Camp himself wishes, have been practically master ed so that when the first team goes Inter the first big game, It will be in such a condition that if the team's . weight is insufficient, the skill and swiftness with which the plays can be engineered .will "offset the lack of weigiit. From end to end the team Is in fairly good shape as far as .experience and ' uniformity are concerned. But the paramount weakness of most of the linemen is the lack of ginger. No amount of coaxing or driving that the coach, may do Beams to eliminate that desire to make practice hou? play hour and until the line comes to rea lty? that football is not entirely a pastime, the sooner the line will be come a real asset to the team. Charg ging,' aggressive up-on-the-toes spirit Is entirely lacking much to the disap pointment of their fellow students, and to the fans throughout the city who are anxious to see the team ex cel. - .

It enters into th Bpirlt of the game with more vigor and though light, indicates it will be a formidable quartet provid ed a fullback Is picked up. Grout, the clever lineman is being worked there a little this weekbut the place is new to him and he is still uniimbered as he only recently entered school. His weight' and willingness to work will go a long ways toward filling the on ly serious weakness of the squad at this time, if no experienced full back Is found. V - 7 If Zimmerman's plays are mastered and the team shows more desire to learn the game than It does to enjoy an hour's outing each night, a wonder ful Improvement wjll be noticed ere another week has come and gone. The team Is going to Spokane soon and with the spirit entertained now by the big majority, of the squad, the trip Is going to afford a splendid out ing at the expense of the Spokane school. However,' the reputation of the local school, brought to a high level during the past few years, is seriously at stake, and if the team disregards the reputation of the school and city and goes to Spokane and fails to put up the best fight It knows, it will have done much to dampen the ardor of the city as a whole. On the other hand, if the team shows more Inclination to do the very, best it can show the is defeated at Spoken,.no matter what the score, It can return with Us chin In the air and be' greeted with the good right hand of fellowship by every football lover In La Grande. Without dlsparlng the prospects of the team, the Observer mentions these facts in the hope that the players will sooner or later realize the momentous re sponsibility resting upon them' and know" that to be defeated without having tried to win is the worst de feat of all. and that in the school and out of the school are hundreds who are dead anxious to see the little squad overcome its handicaps and land as near the top'rung of the ladder as possible. 5 8 Real'Estate, '.?- 220 Depot St.,' Grandest" MANY (BACK SHOTS HERE. Experts Gather from Entire Northwest to Attend the Shoot at Wallowa. . Once more a galaxy of the all stars with the shot' gun are In La Grande Uub time awaiting for the arrival .of the first pigeon's appearance at the Wallowa Bhoot under auspices of the Union and Wallowa countv Snorta- man'8 association. L. H. Reid. repres enting Peters', Cartridge company,. T, D., Barclay, representing the Selby people, Ed. Morris for the Win chester Arms company, William Par ker for the U. M.

He will be eligible to knock down for the amateur medals , and trophies, while the other men are professionals and will travel In a class, by them selves next Monday." . It la seldom that so many blue rocks cracks get together as there are here today, and the hotelB have buzzed with little else than arms and blue rock talk."-'. . 5 HEADY TO HOI BEAR. Predatory Animal In Wallowa Js doomed for Sure Says Hunter. Equipped with a new .401 gauge gun, and with blood in his eye, Ed. Morris, the professional shot, will hit the trail of the big predatory ani mal in Wallowa county known as old Grlzzley. His guide will be "Huckle berry" Joe, of whom every school boy has heard so much about, and the two win keep going until they get the bear or the bear gets them. Mr. Morris, who is In La Grande today has had this hunt under consideration ' for some time and is fully, prepared now. to keep on the trail until the bear is run down. This particular bear has been eating sheep and cattle and his pres ence is a detriment to the welfare of the ranges. The government Is pay ing "Huckleberry" Joe for his trouble, but Mr. Morris Is out after the glory on his own hook. His monster gun Is guaranteed to kill the "bloomln bar" once he gets a bead on his snarly body. ' REGULARS MEET SCRUBS.' Fans Given Home Talent Treat at the ' Lincoln Grounds This Afternoon.

Levy, 'of Union was presented with a beautiful cup by the La Grande fair management for his trouble In showing his. string of Shetland horses at the local .fair. Mr. Levy is highly pleased with the cup. Contracts for handling the E. M. F. In Union county during the year 1811 ' have Just been. closed by the M. & M. company. The machines ; will be sold on the sliding scale basis,- and the first order is In the neighborhood f ten machines. ' y:- ,':v; :: That the "automobile Is not displac ing the pure bred horse in this coun ty is testified to by the remarkable showing made at the stock shows In connection with the county fair. Good horses, like good automobiles will always be a part and parcel of, this county. ' -. Among the latest recruits to the rapidly growing crowd of iuto fans and owners is C. C. Penington, the clothier. He purchased a Chalmers Detroit "40" from G. M. Richer This car was brand new a month a?o and has 'covered less than 600 miles when Mr. Pennington got It. ; . t.:-r . ., Portland's wonderful record in go ing 76 innings without allowing a sin lie score ' is giving La Grande fans added hope that she will be able to grab the rag even after the deliberate steal on Judge Graham's part. Port land made it 1 to 0 yesterday and thereby went nine more innings past the world's record. Among the new and stylish cars in La Grande this week la the new Cadllac "35" owned by W. II. Bohnen kamp, The machine is a little larger over , all than the old models of the same car, even the steering wheel being a little wider. The car Is a trifle heavier than the old styles too. Its A. L. A. M. rating Is 33 4-10. ' A new international baseball league will probably be launched next year, to Include Butte, Helena, preat Falls, Mont., and Calgary, Edmonton and Lethbrldge, Alberta. The Western Canada league will probably be drop ped in case the new organization is effected. Baseball Is highly popular In the Alberta" cities, and the Montana fans are eager for a good quality of professional ball. To go. seventy-six Innings without allowing a run Is unquestionably a record of the world In organized base? ball, but. In 1907 Weiser -which. was playing without national commission protection, went eighty-six Innings. To make the Welser performance all the more remarkable, one man did the pitching for the entire eighty-six con secutive innings, and thai man la Walter Johnson,, the young phenom with Washington.
