TitASiS AS'far as La Grande people as a whole are concerned wltrl'Oife exception of those fans who ardently pursue' the spoiling: cdliihuis of the newspapers day by day the 1932 loot bull season is past history.- The' Hiirh schbol eleven' concluded its' Eastern Orecron sch'edule at Pqhdletgii' Ai'riiistice Day, arid' on the'sanie after noon the Eastern Oregon Normal-school Mountaineers wound up their schedule uy trouncing i,ewiston Normal school 12 to 0 here in La Grande. From a football standpoint it has been a very successful season for both High' school and Normal school. The one' earned a district championship, and the' other had its second, most successlul year in its history. Coach' Bob Quiiiii; after two relatively lean years on- the. gridiron,, assembled' a slirorigi hard-hitting team' that made a splendid showing against other institutions of a similar class 'in the Pacific Northwest. s True, the Mountaineers bowed to'Columbia university, College of Idaho, and Ashland Normal, but, on the other hand, all three of those schools hiive superior material and -are long established in Northwest fdbtball circles'. Furthermore, the Mountaineers made an excellent showing iii each of. those three games, going down with colors flying, and battling just as hard oil the las.t down as'in the opening qflirrter. Nothing to be ashanied of therel 'yt'nd'th'ere were '' Victories' tp offset the' defeats. E. 0. N. defeated Lewiston Normal this' year for1 the first time in histdryV (Even in 1929, when the Mountaineers won the state; normal school championship, Lewiston held them to a 7 to 7. tie.) Then Spokane university fell before the Quinn coached eleven- by a score of 31 to 9 ; and AJbion Normal school; of Albion; Ida., were handed a 39 to 0 defeat. The B.akei' Independents' Were' also beaten, in the opening game of the season, by a score of 27 to o! All in all, the Mountaineers playing a heady, fighting brand of football, scored 115 points to their opponents' 81. A very ci'editable record ! ..The' La Grande' High school's final , game brought the Eastern Oregon championship pennant to the blue and white staff for the second time in three years. Incidentally, with the conclusion of his fourth fall in La Grande, Coach Woodie iinds ins teams have been beaten only three times in Oregon once lor the State championship, and twice for district championship, The' Tigers had only one momentary pause in' their march to. the title a Scoreless tie at Mlton-Free-water but. by defeating Pendleton's team which had also tied Milton-Freewater, that obstacle was removed. Victories were rolled up against Union, Wallowa, Enterprise, Baker,1 ajid Pendleton. It is .interesting to note that in the past four years Baker and Pendleton traditional rivals of La urancie nave lailed to dent the Tigers' supremacy, j Best Of all, the .Tigers played good, clean football,- fight ing to victory in, tlie championship game after trailing 6 to 0 at the end of the half. They made the greater amount of yardage in every game with an Oregon team this season. Coach Woodie will lose 17 of his team by graduation next spring, but La Grande people are not worrying about the jutiue, mere win oe anoiner splendid turnout next fall, and another successful team because of the excellent system now iu vogue here keeping hew material constantly developing, from the grades on up, by means of class football schedules. Today's news columns carry the announcement that the Tigers will meet The Dalles eleven there next Friday af ter noon in a post season game. If La Grande Should win, it would have' a theoretical right to hieed the winner of the Hood Kiver-Medford game and then play Jefferson High of Portland for the state title on Thanksgiving Day, if suc cessful. But a game with either Hood River or Medford seems extremely unlikely. If those two teams should play a tie'g'aine, however, and La Grande beats The Dalles, we would be eligible to meet Portland in the championship" game be cause The Dalles has already played a tie game with Hood Liver.- These, of course, are merely possibilities, and we shall have to wait and see what developments bring. . At any rate, La Grande, located far awav from metropoli tan centers, nevertheless saw a brand of football this year that would rank with that seen in ntanv cities Of much larger population. We should be thankful for this to the two coaches, Quinn and Woodie, and to the hard work and per severance of the many boys who carried the battle onto the gridiron for our two institutions of learning. LETS fvEKP THE PRIMARY Alfred E. Smith suggests that we "pay some attention to the direct primary" to "find out if that isn't the thing that is producing a great deal of chaos within the parties." - TM6 former governor of New York lines up with other leaders of both parties in attempting to create enmity against the primary, trying to blame the nonvinating system for the political faults of the day. Renders' of The Observer, most of them men and women Qf average intelligence and influence in life, should strenu ously resist the efforts of conservative politicians and think ers to kill the primary system. We are not concerned with us .effect, at this time, upon the quality of our gOvertinient or its contribution to the so-called "chaos" of our parties. The direct primary places political power in the hands Of men and women everywhere arid prevents corrupt control bjf'j)aity gi-puns' and1 a'; few favored citizens. Tlie primary gives to the electorate not1 orijy tlie right to accept or reject the organization choice of candidates, but the more valuable riht of naming the party candidates. ' j .The .ballot will' be I worth little to the voters of this counti-y if the nominations of both parties are to be made by small groups, usually looking out for their selfish interests. iWd have jib false illusion as I to 'the people's ability to make .. aeiAous .errors in primaries aim elections, or ine ease witn '.i.l.:-!.

THE PITIT.T CHILD Mary Chadwlck, visiting a kinder garten In Lonrion which was attend ed by children from underprivileged homes, observed -that many of them. When they first came, sat about like so many little wax figures. The children did not speak unless they were spoken to. They had no idea of how to piny with the mate rials lying accessible on every hand. They did not know how to become acquainted. They seemed only half alive. Yet many of them we:$ equipped with a complete set of manners which they used with auto matic precision. . The mothers of all these children had much harti work to do. For them the Ideal behavior In their children meant that which gave them tho Senst trouble. Hence they had trained them to alt still, keep still arid keep clor.n. The mothers had no time to talk with the children or tell them stories, j and the children's painfully rmnll vocabularies and general Inarticulate ness showed how at can be the effect of such deprivation.
