The above score was rolled on the
Club alleys Tuesday evening against
a scrub team, by the team who wiVJ
. probaUy represent ' lia Grande in
- the coming' v match with Pendleton
next Tuesday ' -evening. This shows
' that the boys are "rolling qome" and
should give Pendleton an awful run
in the coming match. .
However, while the La Grande team
was showing this fine form which,
if duplicated, in the Northwest bowl
ing tournament would win nine times
out of 10 the Pendleton bowlers
were not loafing. The highest single
score for one game ever rolled in
, Pendleton was set Tuesday evening,
. Fred Book- rolled 298 pins. In three
games he rolled 712.

Not the least ' worry that Mrs.
Housewives has, is to cogittte about
the prospective price of flour, f With
wheat at fl.60nd in demand, the
price of flour has of course 'gone up
wards, but that the next month or
two. will find the price soaring a
great deal higher, is feared. The con
sumption of flour will likely be re
duced should the price of the food
stuff goes much higher. Many are
laying in supplies at the present
price, fearing a stiff advance inertly.
