Select a ball that fits the grip of the hand; use the thumb and middle finger; be careful to have fin ger holes large enough. . Second.r-Do not try for speed; try to acquire a natural delivery and speed will come gradually. Too much speed is not good. Third. Learn to roll the ball free ly; do not bounce it or yirow it on the alley; bouncing alters the course of the ball. Fourth. Start the ball from the right hand corner of the alley, on a direct line with the head pin. Fifth. Use the largest ball you can handle;, the large ball gets the best results. Sixth. Acquire a stride of either three or five steps, so as to bring the ibtill and the left foot to the foul line. at the same time. Seventh. Watch the pins, not the alley; your eye on the spot between the 1 and 3 pin, known as the pock et. Eighth.

Successfully using a forward pass every time they came within the 20-yard line, Halfback Snow putting the bail each time over Baker's goal into the arms of the waiting Howie, who never failed to grab the oval, the Boise high school football team had little difficulty in disposing of Baker high yesterday af ternoon by the score of 34 to 7. Four of the Boise touchdowns were made as above stated, the local defense being helpless to stop the play, while the first came in the first minute of the game on a fumble punt, which a Boise man picked up and carried over the Bilker goal line after the strong de fense of the home team had com pelled hevisitorstoJkick. This play PENDLEI VISITORS WORN DOWN TOWARD THE LAST Conkey's Toe Saves Kalsomining at Hands of Pendleton Team . ' Pendleton vanquished the dimin utives from La Grande yesterday at Pendleton, 21 to 3. Conkey's booting toe shut off the kalsomine. Heavier but slow ,the Pendleton team wore down the youngsters from La Grande and toward the close of the game ran over two touchdowns. The game was exceptionally clean though marred oy trequent unavoiaaDie injuries on the part of La Grande. Indicative of the excellent treatment accorded, might be stated that the doctors who treated La Grande players did so grat is, and Pendleton merchants and stud ent body members alike "tried their best to give La Grande a good recep tion.' Nothing but praise and no sem blance at fault, is heard from L Grande ranks today, though defeated by a big margin. The team arrived last evening and is now to get into shape for the big game with Baker here next Friday. Regardless of past performances. Baker and La Grande' can always put up stellar perform ances' when pitted against each other and the result will be a good game, certainly. The detail of play at Pen dleton yesterday is: First quarter Captain Couch won the toss and chose the west goal while Pendleton chose to receive the kick. Conkey kicked off to the fullback, the ball being caught on the five yard line and the runner was downed in his tracks. La Grande went to sleep and let Pendleton .pull off one of those old side line passes for a gain of 15 yards, after which they made yard age through La Grande's line for first down. But beautiful tackles behind diu'e Una hv Tjffpl. Hunter and Couch, forced Pendleton to kick. La Grande seemed to have caught stage fright and were almost as slow as Pendleton in getting their plays start ed. A forward pass from Kiddle to Leffel constituted the only happen ings while the ball was in La Grande's niuraocinn US fhpV SOOn lost it OH & pass which was intercepted by a Pen dleton back. Second quarter Pendleton was un able to make yardage and punted to Rosenbaum, who made a good return. Ln Grande lost on the first down on an intercepted forward pass and Pendle ton was soon forced to punt again and Conkey ran 20 yards on a fake play. La Grande kicked and Pendleton made a forward pass for 10 yards. Kiddle tackled Pendleton behind the line but on the next down the heavy Pendleton backs skirted their left and for a 20 yard run putting the ball on the five yard line. - Time was taken out for Rosenbaum, who received hard knocks on the head. With only 40 seconds to play the Pendeltons put the ball over 10 I Call Black 1241 Adams Avenue took the heart out of .he locals ap parently, for although they fought ev ery inch of the way the superior weight, age and experience of the Ida hoans was too much1 for them. Dahl berg, the visitors' fullback, gave a fine exhibition of punting, some of his kicks covering 50 yards or better. It was simply a team of green play ers against older and more experienced men, with the bad start taking the heart' out of the local players, who nev ertheless fought to- a finish and are entitled to much credit for their show ing. Rev. Father Driscol, of La Grande officiated as referee and Dr. H, J. Home as umpire and George Jett bond linesman. the line for a touchdown and kicked goal. Score, 7 to 0. Conkey kicked i off . and Pendleton made good re turns. Half over, Third quarter Conkey kicked to the very goal posts and the Pendleton receivers were down after a short run. Pendleton was soon forced to punt, but La Grande lost the ball on a forward pass but again Pendleton was unable . to make yardage and punted. La Grande for the first time looked up and with the ball on the 40 yard line, and started a march for Pendleton's goal. A forward pass to Hunter, a 20-yard run by Oliver a 12 yard line buck by Couch, and an off tackle play for five yards and then Pendleton held but Conkey kicked a pretty place kick over the bars. Score 7 to 3, Pendleton kicked off to Ros enbaum who fumbled when tackled hard, but Andrews recovered. La Grande failed to make yardage and Conkey punted. Fourth ouarter Pendleton bv a ser ies of line bucks and forward passes, worked the ball to the five yard line but lost the ball on downs and Con key kicked out. Leffel was injured and Proctor went in at halfback and Rosenbaum took right end, Pendle ton, by the works of their heavy backs, forced the ball across the goal line for the second touchdown, and kicked goal. Score 14 to 3. Pendleton kicked to Hunter, t who made a good return but was injured when tackled. Adams took the end and Rosenbaum went back to naif back.

Kramlich Office Building GLASS SUPS WELL REGULATED TYING CON TESTS ARRANGED FOR Indiscriminate Tussles to Be Elimin ated In Local Schools. Class fights are not by any means a thing -of local school history and as long as there is a good live high school class fights will continue' to hold a certain comer of the stage along about this time of the yaar. Of course ev eryone knows that the sophomore nat urally has a "pick" at the freshman and so it is left to the upper classes to pick a fight just to be m the swing of the tnTng. This week has seen a lively class fight .at the local high. Early one dark night some dignified senior nailed the senior emblem on the flag pole, ; The flag fluttered se enely tn the breezes for five days and a half to be correct by the senior time, although the juniors wilt have it a lit tle less. Then one eventful morning art energetic Junior "lifted" the flag and placed the junior emblem on the mast. Loud was the cheering that morning, but alas! the flag was doom ed to sudden downfall for within a few minutes the seniors had the colors nicely pocketed. Honors being about , even the two elasse decided to wait a day or so and watch developments, The developments came in form of a wee green emblem; no , not green, but then it belonged to no less than the., freshmen. Now the alt important soph- omores must appear on the scene in or der to complete the tragic setting; tne flag must be - torn down amid the cheers of the faithful followers!.
