' The matter of meeting the expense
Is worrying the management some
and a large crowd alone can take the
local instiution out of the expense
without trouble. While the team it
self Is preparing for the first and real
ly the biggest game of the season, as
ceed, but there Is no man who Is not
pleased to. see youth and . superior
ability excell. By the way,' even out
here In Oregon far from the actual
fever, betting is free and considerable
money changed hands this week when
the Observer's complete stories of the
contests appeared on the streets.
With today's game the La Grand-
second team about passes out of the
far as La Grande is concerned, ar-, public eye for its schedule is practic
rangements for meeting the heavy ex-, ally completed. Perhapsone trip lat-
pense will be going on.
All . in all, La Grande's . football
season begins and ends with this
game, for It Is by far the most impor
tant at home game on the schedule
to date. v
er in the year may be arranged for
them.' Principally, from now on, the
sole duty of the second team will be
to let itself be pounded about by the
first team which Is as necessary as
eleven men on the first team.

One of the richest and spiciest
jokes that have been worked off in
La Grande in late years was success
fully manipulated last Sunday even
lng by Ed. O'Connel, the Sun Flower
shoe drummer, who is good at-imper
nonation and who by the we Is up to
snuff on the prize ring dope. O'Con
nel was here last week and was lone
some last Sunday night. Two ' or
three local fellows helped him out on
the B. ' B. B. bunch which has club
rooms in the post office building. He
was introduced to the boys, who were
lounging Sunday evening in the club
rooms and he carried out the part of
Eddie Hanley, ex-champion ' middle
weight boxer. The way O'Connel
worked out of the story of how "he"
was put out by "Rube" Fern in "98
was something rich, The boys, who
all aBplre to things athletic and have
all won more or less fame in local
high school' circles, fell to the bait
like a house afire, and with open
mouths and interest intent they list
ened to the reminlscenses of Mr. Han
ley. O'Connell was so pleased with the
way the boys took his bait that he
grew enthusiastic, and went through
come interesting lessons on how to
spar and how to keep in physical trim.
When he had spun his little yarn he
went back to his hotel and the club
boys swelled up with Justifiable pride
because an ex-champion boxer had
called on them and volunteered them
some useful hints on the ring game.
The boys are still of the oplnion that
pareatly rather uncertain. Dwight , they heard something worth while,
