The game was set early for the benefit of merchants, who can more easily arrange to at tend a game early In the afternoon. Baker is believed to have an out Bide chance to win over La Grande, which has been undefeated In eastern Oregon competition this fall and has been beaten only once. The Tigers fell before the alia Walla Bluejackets by a score of 6 to 0. La Grande has the heaviest team tn eastern Oregon and Is unusually heavy for a high school outfit. The Bulldogs will depend. It is understood, upon a running attack for victory. " Baltantyne, back field player, is suf fering from a bad Charley horse. He will probably be relieved by Rags dale. The probable starting lineup as an nounced by Coach Georgo Scott, fol lows: Brookover, left end; Peyron, left tackle; Chrlsmas, left guard; Southard, center; Smurthwaite, right guard; Arthur, right tackle; Harding, right end; Smith, quarter; Holman, right half; Ragsdale, left half; Grabb, fullback. TIGERS OUT TO WIN Although fully realizing that Baker will present a serious threat to the Tigers' Eastern Oregon record to morrow afternoon, the La Grande High team expected to present Its strongest combination of the season against the Bulldogs. The team will leave tomorrow morning for Baker, and present re ports are that a large number of students and sonw townspeople will accompany the squad. Coach Woodie has been working his players diligently every evening of the week, and hopes to have the strongest lineup of the season on the Baker field. There were no injuries in the squad this week and the Tigers arc in the best of physical condition. The La Grande High school band will accompany the team to Baker tomorrow. Locally it was announced that the gamo would begin at 2 o'clock, and It was believed that the 2:30 time given in the Baker story was in error. High school officials here advised all La Grando people who planned to at tend the gome to arrange to be there not later - than 2 o'clock if they ex pected to see the opening klckoff. A big pep rally will be .held at the L. H. S, tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock, previous to tho departure of tho squad for Baker. Officials for the game follow: C. H. Reynolds, La Grande, referee; Mr. Mlmnaugh, umpire; Mr. Duff, Baker, head linesman.

"Hod" Severance (Written For The Associated Press) Bnck in 1930 the University of North Carolina Tar Heels were play ing their ancient and deadly rival, the North Carolina State Wolfpack. The game always is fought to the last minute, no matter what the odds. Tho university team this year, with superior numbers and more experienced players, was having little difficulty gaining ground and had scored a few touchdowns be fore the end of the first half. The Wolfpack ball carriers could do little gaining through the Tar heel line, with the exception of their fullback, an Indian named Guerno. This redskin was poison to tho university eleven anad made gain after gain in terrific plunges. Capt. Nash of the Tarheels, back ing up tho line continued to spur his linesmen to hold this plunging attack, but with no noticeable re sults. Finally Guerno tore off about eight yards, -dragging four or five linesmen with him boforo he was stopped. Capt. Nash, very much disgusted, rushed up and cried out: "What's the matter with you birds, can't you stop that Indian?" Guerno, up on one knee, looked at Nash and mado the reply him self: t "Capt. .Nash, If all tho Indians had been as tough as I am you folks wouldn't be across the Mis sissippi river yet."

The Law School would then be shifted to Salem; NIAV buildings would be necessary immediately for the housing of this department of the University. Another unmcdetl expansion "DISPOSE" IN THIS CASE means destruction and loss of over $700, 000.00 State-owned buildings and property. 4- -v- In Addition . . . THIS "JUGGLING" SCHEME will increase instruction costs 25 for Un iversity and Oregon Slate students. The costly experience of IH States having combined institutions should be a warning Oregon's present unified system of instruction and management is saving $900,000.00 annually, compared with previous costs. It is not economy to discard this saving, then adl tremen dous expenditures for NIAV buildings, NfcW equipment, and NtW dormi tories. Over half the students attending col lege are dependent upon employ ment; hundreds vould be deprived of an opportunity for higher education. Stop this wholesale destruction then COSTLY EXPANSION of our school system. -v THIS BILL, IN ADDITION TO CREATING 2 NEW untried and un needed institutions, establishes State mpfmrt for other Junior Colleges in every Oregon town or city. To educate students for Junior stand ing in technical and scientific college courses requires expensive and elabo rate equipment. Thus, the same facil ities now maintained at the Uni versity or State College would be TiUI'LKD at taxpayers' expense! THIS BILL SPECIFICALLY DI RECTS THE JUNKING of Oregon's present Normal School .system, which is fully accredited by the American Council on Education. The combined enrollment of the pro posed teachers' college at Eugene would use hut one-third the facilities now available. Two-thirds of the build ings, land, anl equipment, valued at at $3,300,000.00, would be a total loss to the taxpayers. Mr. mid SCHOOL TAX-SAVINO ASS N. Amodeo M. PmiHj, Ctuilrman F. If. Ynuojt.

Some provision must be rfiade In the im mediate future for the work of such schools as Basic Arts and Sciences and Vocational Education, that are now driven from pillar to post in an effort to find even temporary classroom accommodations, .'- THIS "WOVE" ORDERS the entire student body "hauled" from Uuftcne and "dumped" onto the Stale College campus, which now ac commodates the enrollment of one institution. NEW buildings N1!W lecture rooms NEW equipment NliW dormitories, must be pro vided at Corvallis for this doubled enrollment. THE EXPERIENCE OF OTHER STATES, having combined institutions, has proved that non-technical courses, given on the same campus, tend to mbmerge agricultural, mechan ical, and scientific courses. Training in those courses pertaining to the major industries of this State would be seriously, if not faulty, handicapped. THINK!

The total of txpayerownfd property that would be leopard ld as a result ol this "Jujjllnj" bill. Is the stag gering sum of $15,000,000.
