"If we knew tho actual mo tive, then we wouldn't be conducting the search so blindly. "Clues that we now have would be of much more value and seem ingly unimportant evidence might take on a much more valuable aspect it only we had tho motive of the crime to hook . up with them." Dozens of theories have been ad vanced and many of them are ex tremely logical. The one given most crcdcnco by tho polco Is that the crime was committed by gangstors solely for ransom. This Is the theory held by Governor A. Harry Moore of New Jersey. He discounts entirely the theory that the baby was kid naped for reasons of revenge.

Although the as sociation feels that the playground space In La Grande Is Inadequate, the cost of the courts Is too great to un dertake at present, they stated. Dues will be payable at once, how ever, and the courts will be repaired this week to prepare for the tourna ment with Union on the local courts next 8unday afternoon. Plans for the Eastern Oregon tournament, which will be staged la La Grande this summer, were started, and trophies to the winners were dis cussed. The repairs on the courts this summer will cost very little, and a portion of tho dues can be put away to start the building fund, it was decided.
