Winning and losing, the La Grande high school teams are home again from Union, where they spent Satur day as the guests of .the Union schools. The La Grande girls nosed out a victory, winning while playing off a tie game, while the La Grande boys lost. Peculiarly enough the scores for both games were the same; the La Grande girls captured the Un ion scalps' in a sensational and "ter ribly" Interesting game by the score of eleven to ten the La Grande boys lost to the union hoys by the same score. Things were Just reversed all way through. The local lassies gained a big lead early in the game -and kept it until well toward the finish when the Union forwards threw two field goals in rapid succession, tielng the score. On the play-on it required but a few seconds work for La Grande to negotiate a goal, though Just a few seconds before, Union gained one point on a free throw. It required two points to win. The Union girls had no advantage particularly over the local girls in any respect, while the low celling and cramped quarters befuddled the vis iting players continually. Every player on the La Grande co-ed squad behaved like veterans and Coach Car ruth is highly pleased with the show ing of the team, and the Individuals. With the boys, their style of playing differs from that permissible In a low celling room. The beams interfered with their pasess and It was 'well to ward the cIobo of the contest before they accustomed themselves to con ditions, and with Union far in ' the lead, and only a few minutes left to play, the La Granders crawled up rap idly as soon as they got their bear- nig. They lacked one point of tleing the score when the final whistle blew. Both the bovt and girls were en tertained in fine style by the Union contingent. liver By MARTIN V.
