Fortunate Turn of Luck Closes Game
With Fcudleton Lettdftuf. , ,
i Fortune's spindle swung and stop
ped with good result to Pendleton lust
nlglit before an abbreviated but excit
ed crowd or storm daring basKotball
tans at the high school gymnasium
When the wheat town cohorts sneaked
out a victory over the La Grande city
team by a margin of one point, gained
from a thrilling basket a moment be
fore the whistle . blew. Pendleton
probably earned its victory In. view
of the uneven performance of the
home guard, but had the spindle of
fortune been less mean to La Grande
the locals would have won by a mar
gin' of one or two. The first half was
manifestly in. favor ,of Tendleton.. At
no time was the margin wide but Pen
dleton bad the consistent team work,
snap and ginger and Its guards were
classically dropping baskets from any
place on the' Moor that opportunity
presented itself.; In the second half
the guarding was more loose and tne
Pendleton- forwards did .; most ' of the
scoring principally because of the su
perior endurance that; allowed -the
nifty forwards to get away from their
?uards altogether too frequently. Fee
nd Strain are gifted, with fast feet
and sure eyes
i , It was a laborious game. i. The home
, guard got together at spurts and In
- every instance ran far ahead of the
: visitors, Such a condition arose Just
before, the end of , the last half when
for a few minutes the real cilabre of
the locals displayed Itself and as long
as if lasted, ' Pendleton '' was bested.
The spurt broke and cogs clogged a.
moment too soon and Pendleton took
down the lead and got one point the
best when the time was up. ' lit was a
see-saw affair, lacking even-.speed but
wsb exciting through the : brilliant
basket Bhootlng of the visitors, and
home players alike, r Especially; Jor
dan; the guard, dropped baskets from
the middle of the floor on the dead
run repeatedly, 'Liudsey and Hollis-
ter each got .difficult baskets; from
hard angles,' but not , enough to keep
ahead of the steady drilling or tne vis
itors from over the mountains. ; .,
