For Leonard's Title ! 1 Tigers May Face Tough Job in Local Tournament By RCOOP) Did It ever occur to anyone that La Grande high school's Ixc.ket ball team might po.'-r:iiIy not nor vlve the I nion-WHllowj. county tournament here n xt w"ek and therefore not be. eligible for iar ticlimtton in the district tmirrn-m'-nt at t'nion the first week in March? It could happen, although It ! very unlikely. As It stand, how ever, two teams to participate Joseph and Wallowa have twice beaten Ijl Grande, ir ia Grande has hard enough luck, to draw games with these two in the pre liminary tourney and loses to both, she will he through. The find: game l-a Grande will play will be with Knterprtse which should end In a wiji for the Tigers. After that well, let's hope for the bent. The Tnlon girls' team is to play Pendleton some time in the tiPa future, according to reports.
