This increase does not meet with

for maintaining the game and fish

$100,000 a year steps may be taken
to have the entire game1 and fish com

Speaking of the game between La
Grande high school and Joseph high
last Saturday night the Joseph Her
ald says among other things:
The game was bv no means as one
sided as the score might indicate 37'
11. The La Grande captain was
veritable demon, scoring from the
most difficult angles. At center
Capt. Wells often outjumped his op
ponent and Allen was a constant
source of annoyance to those playing
opposite him. He was hard to keep
track of. In fact every man on our
team did excellent work. The game
was fairly won by our opponents but
not because we have not a good team;
it was because we were opposed by
an unusually fast team. . Too much
credit cannot be given the visitors for
the clean, aggressive skillful game
they played. The game was fast, and
rivalry keen, throughout, but there
I was no unnecessary roughnes diS'
played. The friendly relation al
readv existing between the two
schools has been greatly strengthened,

In the second series for the Ob

Scott defeated Williams' team in an
interesting match last night. Only
four men were used in the lineups of
the teams and some good scores were
rolled. Kohl, Zimmerman, McLeod
and Frees rolled well for the winners
while Wickline, Van Fleet and Will
iams were in good form for the de
feated bunch. Monday night, Crowe's
team and Williams' will roll to see
who "holds the cellar in the league
race.
