nVO GOOD FOOTUAM. 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.

.Rather, we refer to mental diseases

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. They had
not been allowed to use their muscles
