The final score was: La Grande, 2; Pendleton, 6. In the beginning It looked as If the game was to go to the Pippins through the loose fielding work of the home guards. In the second in ning three consecutive-errors allow ed the visitors to chase one across, while In the fourth a two-sacker frdm King's bat, a fluke single and a sacrt flee allowed another. Fox was in fine form until the sixth, when the Euckaroos slugged his 'offerings for five hits, three of which went for ex tra bases, and these, with a pass and a bonehead by Barry, allowed four runs.
