Corvallia has hit upon a unique and
appropriate method of selecting its

held there May 22. The La Grande
students to get to go, will be selected
by the Corvallli management on the
strength of the championship meet
at Wallowa, May 6, and personal let-

each individual. That letter alone will
open the portals to the Corvallis
meet. All expenses will be paid by the
school, and gold, silver and bronze
trophies will be hung up. Highest
point winner is to be rewarded with
a handsome cup. The interscholastic
is part of a three-day carnival to be
held in Corvallis. Letters explaining
the methods to be followed, were re
ceived in La Grande today.

The game between the Weary Nine
and the East Side and the Colored
Giants of the West Side came off as
scheduled last Sunday despite the bad
weather, and it was some game, says
the Elgin Recorder. Once more the
hobo tribe demonstrated the fact that
they were masters of the West Siders
at the great national pastime, but this
time the score was closer than in
either of the contests of last season.
The boys of both teams were on hand
prepared to carry out the idea pre
sented by the names and the make
ups created a lot of run.

The first baseball activities of the
season for Wallowa will come tomor

chosen. Manager Marvin has-called

many makes of cars from America
and Europe and won the honors on
its excellent showing including the
most advances in automobile manu
facture. The Cadillac, handled by
W. H. Bohnenkamp Co., features
among other things this year the two
speed axle which smoothens the run
ning and cuts down the gasoline used
nearly one-third and also reduces the
friction a great deal, the demonstra
tors say. It has many features.
Among them are the folding steering
wheel and tilting front cushion which
allows a lady to be helped into the
front seat from the curb without the
inconveniences of other makes. There
are no freakish features, which large
ly helped that car to win the Royal
trophy; it is the only American car
to win it, and the only car anywhere
to win it twice. The car is built for
service, comfort and stylish appear
ance.
The first car received in La Grande
of this make and model was sent to
Fhillip Conley of Cove, and another
car is expected soon.

, Cut of the new 1914 model "Big Y ," two- speed motorcycle, which won'
the endurance test in a motorcycle co ntest at Lincoln, Neb. The big Y ran
22 miles on a quart of gasoline. A ma-chine built for economy, speed, en
durance and pull. : i
Is the Yale Motorcycle a winner?
To be a winner it must have power,
endurance and speed, it must be able
to save fuel, to run in any kind of
weather, to be dependable. The Yale
does and is all of that and more. The
motorcycle Club of Lincoln, Neb., held
a motor cycle test. Each rider was
given a quart of gasoline. A YALE
RIDDEN BY GUMBLE WENT FAR
THER THAN ANY MULTIPLE CY
LINDER MACHINE IN THE CON
TEST. Twenty-two miles on a quart
of gasoline. Can you beat that? That
means 88 miles per gallon. That
means TWO TENTHS OF A CENT
PER MILE. That means a heap of
usefulness at little cost.
We say other machines are good,
wo admit all they claim for them,
but when you are in the market for
a machine, don't you want the ma
chine that wins in big contests? Don't
it mean that the winner has the stuff
In it that makes it superior? The two
speed Yale, don't forget that the
two speed Yale, the two speed Yale
that starts on low gear from a stand
still with the same ease as an auto
mobile, that plows through mud and
climbs hills. Look at other machines,
that's your privilege, -test them but
when agents have said and done all,
when they have told you that their ma
chine is the best on the market, they
have not told you the truth, and they
can't afford to tell you that the big Y,
the two speed Yale, is a powerful,
speed demon, a gasoline saver, and
perfection in motorcycles. All we ask
is a call and the car will speak for
itself. I hold the agency for this car
and will willingly show you the ins
and outs of motorcycle making.
