Page Two LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER, LA GRANDE, ORE. Tuesday, October 18, 1932 Albion State Normal College Eleven to Play . . . . : FIRST CHANCE TO SEE MOUNTAINEER TEAMjN ACTION Normal School, After Three Out-of-Town Games, to Tackle Idaho Squad on Local Field. Tbo Eastern Oregon Normal school football team.' after playing tliree games' out of town, will make Its debut to La Orande and Union coun ty fans' here Saturday, Oct. 22, lln Ing up against the Albion Btuto Nor mal coHege of Albion, Ida., at a p. m, The game brings together the two teams for the first tlmo, and as far as Albion's strength Is concerned, no one'' here apparently knows what to expect. 1 The visitors may be as strong as a Northwest conference team; they may be on par with teams from smaller colleges It all remains to . be seen, All that la known here Is that the Albion eleven plays teams or Eastorn Idaho and Nevada, rarely entering the country farther west. Game Is Chanced 'Originally the game was' scheduled for Friday afternoon but because the . funeral or president bocock, or ai blorj, who was' killed In an automobile accident last week, la to be held on Saturday, It was necessary ta clriingo the date of the game. Tho Wallowa and La Orande high schools, which had a game scheduled In La Orande ori Saturday, consented to move tholr date to Friday, thus allowing tho two teacher elevens to tako tho Sat urday date. So far this season the Mountain eers have lost two and won one gamo, scoring 88 points against opponents 41." Two of these games were with larger, four-year colleges really out of the Normal school's class, although the Hountalncora made a strong showing In the face of defeat. Against Columbia, after the first quarter, the Qulnn-coached players made more yardage and more first downs than the Irish. In Caldwell, against the College of Idaho Coyotes, the La Orande school shoved ovor ono touch down and lost another score due to n fumble. In strength from running plays, the E. o. n. outfit was nearly on par with tbo Coyotes. The Normal school squad returned to La Orande last Friday after Its Portland game Thursday night, and thus will liavo a lull week or prac tics before meeting Albion Saturday. Fault Jliat have shown up during tho last thrco weeks are being given much attention this week, and Coach Qulnn hopes to have the team In better condition than at any time so far this season for the Albion Teach ers. No ono Is on the Injured list at B. O. N. this week, Much attention is being spent this week on blocking and tackling, which didn't show up so well in Portland. Scrimmages were held last night and tonight and a final scrimmage was scheduled for tomorrow. Albion Coining Frlilny Word was received from Albion this morning that tho Idaho eleven would be hero Friday In tlmo for a light workout late In the afternoon on tho L. H. S. field.

Are Re-Enacted Human Element Is Downfall of Play That Was "Cinch" This is the sevcuth of a series of articles In which O. W. "lied" Severence, noted official, relates the humorous and "insldo" stories ho has run across In a long as sociation with leading football . coaches. Uy O, W. "Jtcd" Severance (Written for Tho Associated Press) Back In 1020 the series play was making football history and Coach Charlie Bachman at Northwestern had perfected n truly unique ono for tho Benson's finale ogalnst flutgers . that "couldn't miss." The key man was to bo "Jim," ono of tho greatest halfbacks North western ever turned out but who always had n most difficult time re membering signals. On tho first down "Jim" was to carry tho ball over right tucklo and bo "knocked out." A iwl UN BVinlml It11 n I7n I mire II unit. to revive, Northwestern was to lino up hurriedly and the ball would be snapped for a wide end run with out calling signals. Tho team practiced diligently and rehearsed every detail time after time.' The referee was warned to watch for tho play and In tho third quarter of tho Rutgers game an op portunity presented to turn tho play into a touchdown. Tho quarterback barked out tho scries play signals and everything started perfectly, with "Jim," gain ing throe yards over right tackle on tho first down. Northwestern lined up quickly only to find "Jim" standing in his accustomed position at left half, a wldo grin on his faco over the Ihree yard gain. Tho awful stillness warning him that something' was amiss, "Jim" suddenly remembered tho second part of tho ploy, dropped to the ground and screamed: "Ow owl I'm hurt!" The referee blew his whistle, and tho second part of tho "suro fire" series still remains to be plnycd. M.TSTIIAM.W KACINU BODY MOVllS TO CI.KAN HP SPOUT MELBOURNE.

GRID TITLE La Grande, One of Con tenders, Will Pljiy Wal lowa Here on Friday. Slowly Wut surely the gridiron situation in Eastern Oregon Is clarify ing. Last weekend's games resulted In three developments of much in terest. First. La Grande High turned back the 1031 champions, the Enterprise Savages, 6 to 0. thus apparently elim inating the Wallowa county lads from fi claim for the championship. How ever, It is likely to be the only loss on the Snvago record, as future games Include contests with Wallowa, Jo seph and Cove, all teams generally regarded aa not so strong as tho En terprise aggregation. Tho victory left La Orande In the running, in spite of the scoreless tie with Mac-Hi. t Over tho mountains Pendleton High served notice of strength by de feating a strong Heppner eleven 13 to 0. It was a gallant comeback af ter a 38 to 0 defeat at the hands of Walla Walla, and Indicates that the Bucks will provide La Grande with some strong opposition on Armistice , day In tho Round-Up City. Another game of much importance j was tho contest at The Dalles. Mac- i Hi lost 34 to 0, and although this does not relegate the Pioneers to the ash-heap. It certainly doesn't Im prove the Mac-Hi record. The Dalles, however, Is out of this section of Eastern Oregon, and the gamo must be regarded as an lntcrdlstrlct one without sectional championship at stake In any sense of tho word. Baker xwe Again A strong Ontario team humbled Ba ker last Friday 12 to 0, making it four straight losses for the Bulldogs. But Ontario always lias a strong team, and It doesn't mean that Coach George Scott's team Is not dangerous. As a matter of fact, the Bulldogs out gained and in general outplayed the Ontario Tigers, but succumbed to somowhat lucky scoring of the South eastern tcaim Baker Is another team that will bo a tough ono for tho La Orande eleven' to defeat. With everything to win and nothing to lose, look out for the Bulldogs! An It stands now, Pendleton. Mac-.the HI, La Orande, Ontario, Nyssa are all undefeated, and a two- or three-way tie for the Eastern Oregon champion-'other ship Is not unlikely. But there are some tough games ahead for most of the leaders. anything may happen Games scheduled for the coming weekend Include: -V, .Friday Wallowa at La Orande, En terprise at Joseph. Saturday Baker at Pendleton, Baseball Leads To Training of Boy's Vpice By Cantor CHICAGO, Oct. 18 OT Tho horse- ' hldo cover of a baseball may exude ; culturo after all. j This has been learned by Meyer Zollo, who protested some time ago ( to tho sports editor of a newspaper, mat someining to nnousn nascDnu , should bo done. I "It's on account of my little son, j Irving, 13, who Is leader of a boys' baseball team himself. Every time tho cubs lose he cries for two days. 1 Anyhow baseball has no culture." Nothing was done and nothing was) heard of Mr. Zollo until yesterday when he reappeared and asked the editor not to do anything about abolishing baseball. "A cantor," he said, "has heard my boy yelling at tho kids on his team. Tho cantor likes his voice and he's training htm, now. Maybe the boy'll bo an opera singer, and alt on account of his bnscball." Arrow Kills Deer Near Tacoma, Wash. TACOMA, Wash.. Oct. 18 OT S. L.
