:He played all year too, another asset
in his favor. With Geddes and Child
era both equal to the position, Lindsey
gets it on his assistance to the team
early In the y.ar and his constancy
at the Job. ' .
Lottes is another youngster nut un-
di&put&bly a guard. . He played all
year and played as good as any with
the possible exception of Holllster,
who is given a position nxt to Lottes
because of the first five games In
which he played. An unfortunate ac
cident put Holllster out of the game in
the height of the season, but his show
ing before that time clearly entitles
him to a position. Lottes comes first
because ho played all year.
Bean of La Grande Is backed by
several years' experience, a swiftness
of foot, accuracy of eye and ability
to guard that outdistance Kail of
Cove, or Bohnenkamp of La Grande
and Wade of Imbler.

inter-games have been many.
Bolton, of La Grand?, and Richards,
of Cove, hold their games at forwards.
Few wlUjllsagree with the statement.
Bolton is' always on the Job and no
matter how heated floor work is, he
he never leaves his firing line. Rich
ards falls to show team work with
Reynolds, but has a peculiarly good
eye for baskets. Reynolds, of La
Grande, is Just blossoming out as a
forward and his floor work commands
him honors that are unglimmered on
ly by his inability to shoot difficult
baskets a feat that will come when
he has given the position a better try-
out. He was shifted from guard this
year to his real position, and next
-ar will have mast red his new task
The same is true of Ralston who was
switched by the Reynolds transfer, and
he too shows wonderful aptitude at
guard, which will be perfected with
more eames. and for this reason, as
with Reynolds, fails to command the
consideration as Lewinn, of Union, It
la by the narrowest margin that both
Reynolds and Ralston did not qualify
as leaders in their respective posi
Hons. No one disputes Lottes' right
to the place against any team In the
county or In Eastern Oregon.
Kali big. strong, active and accur
ate basket-thrower is the peer of
center in high school circles. He
can outjump anyone in Eastern Ore
gon, but more than that, acts quicks r
and guards well and throws accurate
ly Bhowlng Just a little more finish
in most of these departments than
Bohnenkamp, a younsBter and still
new to the game. "Big Bill" will
command a permanent Job next year,
The second team men are easily
selected with the-exceptin of one for
ward position. Union has Hess
and Cove has Hancock, who are
both fairly good men to act as team
mates to Reynolds, but Crawley must
be given credit
Then comes the all county team
This brings to the front teams from
North Powder. Union, Cove, La
Grande. Imbler, Summerville and El
gin and from this bunch of players it
Is not always an easy matter to select
the men who made the nest perform
ances. Bolton of La Grande high Is
eiven the forwardshlp again as In th
high school line up. He is entitled to
it from every respect There are al
ways many instances in basket ban
where "there Is lots of time." tws
doesn't mean hours hut seconds and
Instances like these Is where Bolton
Is consistent and sure. He lacks the
brilliancy of some.
His teammate is difficult to pick
Three men appear in the running,
Either Geddes or Childers would dls
nlace Lindsey but for one or two facts
Geddes shifted to guard the last four
turn pa. disclosing that be is by far
the better suited for the defense than
the offensive end of the game, but
thereby lost his chances, in a measure
of belne a peer at forward. Childers
has a peculiar and be it said a high
lv dcBlrable knack of playing hard
hall and doing it without "dirt." He
has 4es8 fouls called him in his ca
reer than any other player. He knows
the game, too, but yet. has only ap
peared In one actual game at home
this year. Lindsey 1b given the other
forward because he rolled Tip a big
bunch of scores early in the season,
