The Union High School had a team entered but they filled to make a point. v ss . i 4 Q $&$ P P ? Breasted at the finish and shunt ed Into second place when sailing was smooth for first honors, La Grande's track and field team is home from the annual classic test at Baker last Sat urday. Perfectly satisfied with the management and praising Archie Hahn's administrative , abilities and the meet as a whole, the locals have only one1 regret at losing the meet, and that Is that the point-winning members of the local team were of necessity required to enter ' several events at the same time, cutting off points, gome men were In four events at one time. ( lean Sweep In Vaults La Grande made a clean sweep In the pole vault, and many an event was hotly contested. The-lfigh bur dies were won by Millerlng after a brilliant race between Fee of Pendlo tun and M.llorlng, the latter finishing h few feet to the good by a final spurt at the, tape. Roberts was a consistent point winner throughout the meet. running in fine form and losing first place in the dashes by Inches. Millerlng Meet's Star Manager .Millerlng captured the In dividual points medal, though Baker papers give it to a Baker man. Mil lerlng, Conkey and 'Roberts tied In the polo vault, or rather failed to jump it off, the two last named conceding the event to .Millerlng. Given credit for five points In tha. event, .Mlllering's score would be 14 but he compromised with the officials nt 12 points, who tried to count the relay as Hi points for Malone, the nearest competitor. This was overruled and Millerlng was given the medal. The winner: Fifty Yard nsli Gordon, Pendleton, 1st; Roberts, La Grande, 2nd; Malone, Baker, 3rd. Time 3-5.
