SOCIETY NOTES.
Formal Entertaining- Lags During .
The Summer But Excursions, Outings
And Swimming Prove Very Popular
Formal entertaining logs along
these summer days as slowly as the
old vegetable cart but meantime
'summertime society" speeds by with
nil the gay aash or a modem road
ster. And no one misses her bridge club
calender Just now when picnics of a
dozen different varieties are "in. the
air."
There can be long excursions into
the Wallowa country. Already this
season several groups of La Granders
the more daring ones have taken
the Eagle Cap and Box Canyon trips.
Then, at the other extreme of ple
xites are. those supper parties, one of
Hiieir charms being that they are
"Just no trouble at all." A salad,
sandwiches, coffee go Into a basicet,
swimming suits go into the car
and the plcnlo is m.
For these small out-of-door suppers,
Pine Cone Is as popular as ever. Last
night, for example, one saw picnicking
there a number of family groups. At
om of the park, tables were M. and
Mrs. R. S. Eukin and their sons. Jack
and Bill, and Mrs. Eakin's mother,
Mrs. Ed Kiddle. At another table were
Mr. and Mrs. S. B. Morgan, Miss Moi
ba Hanks. Miss Edrls Maguire and
Mrs. Avis Ferris. At still another sup
per were Mr. and Mrs. Herbert R.
Hanna and their daughters, Miriam
and La Vella and Mrs. Lloyd Berry
(Genevieve Hanna), of Walla Walla.
Mrs. Berry and her baby daughter,
Barbara Jean are guests at the Hanna
home here.

I.A.A.F. Power
To Be At Stake
In Friday Vote
LOS ANGELES, July 28 m The
battle to re-Instate Paavo Nurml in
time to permit his competition for
the fourth time In the Olympics will,
in effect, be secondary to the fight
within Che International Amateur
Athletic Federation over the power
of Its council to suspend an athlete
or a nation, arbitrarily, for alleged
violation of amateur rules. It is
scheduled this Friday.
Executives of the I. A. A. F., led
by J. S. Edstroxn, of Sweden, In seek
ing a change In the rules to cover
specifically their suspension of Kurmi
last April, have run into strong op
position, in which the United States
now has Joined. This opposition, re
gardless of the merits of the Kurmi
case Itself, is based on objections to
giving blanket powers to the I, A,
A. F,
"It ts the league of nations all over
again," declared Frederick W. Ru-
bein, of New York, veteran Ameri
can delegate to the federation, TUla
country declined to bind Itself to an
international group, endangering free
dom of Individual decision and ac
tion. The amateur athletic union
takes the same attitude- In regard to
the I. A. A. F." v
Defeat of the proposed rules change,
Finland's delegates hold, automatic
ally will mean the reinstatement of
Nurml, inasmuch .as this would leave
Finland as the final authority in the
case. The Finns already have cleared
Paavo and repeatedly demanded his
suspension be revoked.
GRII TEAMS TO SHIFT
LOS ANGELES, July 36 The
question of "to shift or not to shift'
confronting the western and eastern
football teams practicing for their
Olympic games demonstration on the
night of August 8 has been answered.
Both elevens will employ the shift.
The eastern squad, made up of
players from Harvard, Yale and
Princeton, had been expected to em
ploy tnls method of attack, and will
use a variation of the Notre Dame
movement.
Because of the opposition of Glenn
(Pop Warner, member of the west
ern staff, against the shift In col
lege games, the offensive play of
the athletes from Stanford, Univer
sity of Southern California and Cali
fornia had been something of a ques
tion. Howard Jones, head of the
California; group, always has favored
the .shift, and apparently won his
point.
