The fans who weren't there are entitled to know, however, that PeDdleton players fat tened their batting averages to the tune of 20 swats, Barry's bender lec tors being unable to stop the slaugh ter. La Grande has hitched its pride for that particular contest to the home drive by Harmon when two were on. It was a game that luc figured in conspicuously along with terrific bitting and some poor playing all around. Good night, first game. Morning Cam Bad, Too.

Erown' absence from the keystone bag broke up the infield badly- yes terday. Luttrell wag pulled in . to second In the morning and Foster in the afternoon. Bradley was on bis old bag at third and Luttrell went to center field. . ; Desmond was as wild as a March bar. He mad life dangerous for the batters. Poor King. He grouched much but worked hard. Saturday the poor cuss til chasing wild heaves all afternoon 1 did the same thing Sunday morning and b ythe time the afternoon game I came around was naturally some tired. I . The grounds a week ago were too soft now they are too bard. The j player are stiffened and sore from running on tne Diiuiiiuic-iiKe inneia. We win two out of six with Pen dleton which was better than Boise could do with Walla Walla. Pendleton sent a delegation of root ers over Sunday but the games were not even close enough to hold their Interest and the fans from the wheat town put ln msot of their time match ing wits, with the local rooters. The panning back and forth was rich at times. Harmon got a fine plastered to him In the afternoon for being saucy. . Infielder Mensor, released from Pen dleton's payroll because of trouble be tween Lodell and Mensor, will be In the La Grande lineup tomorrow, "Hap'' Smith, the Pacific Coa6t league twirler, is to arrive Wednesday and he brings a pitcher with him, while Manager Jack Barry is now negoti ating with Cooney Sarklll of Tacoma. ' With the weak place Jn the Infield again plugged up since Brown eft us, the Pippins ;are looking up again. Mensor isan all right ball player. .The crying need In La'Grande Is ' pitchers. It is believed that "Hap ' j Smith will go a long way toward fil ling this gap. For the past three days ! La Grande has been going through with only a few errors on a bad Ee.'d but the 18, IS or 20 hits have done tW business. ' Give us pitchers," cry the fans, "and we will be off like a h ju4 afire.' Walla Walla labored under the mis understanding that Barry was to move his stalwarts to Walla Wr.'la th's week nstead the Gardeners are coming here for a week's series. - SUNDAY SCHOOL IS QRGAUIZEO DISTRICT ABOUT ALICEL HAS A SCHOOL.
