The Yannlgans were given a severe drubbing yesterday afternoon by he regulars, and with tbe exception of Peterson who was out for the first time, the regulars were aligned In something like the position they wil; occupy wben they get down to bus:. bass. It was the nearest to that at any rate that has yet been doped out. Peterson played snort. The Regu lars got away wKh tbe practice game nicely, however. The pitchers ar till on the slow schedule, bring re futed the right to twist any over.

That La Grande is to have two ex cellent tennis courts and maybe more became a certainty last night when the Triangle club took it upon itself to further plans to that end. it is like ly that with the Dumber of new peo ple In the city who may be Interest ed, It will become necessary to keep three or even four courts la order, but that the old B. M. A, courts are to be repaired, tbe fence rebuilt anci otherwise improved, now is certa'n. Just who will be affiliated with the courts has not been determined, but the players will not be required to wait until hot weather comes to get to playing th's year, as waa the case last year.
