In spite of the known strength of the visiting team, there are indications that the E. 0. N. squad will be equal to the task of holding off an Idaho victory. Coach Bob Quinn has developed one of the finest football teams 'ever put together in this section of the state, in fact, one of the finest teams . ever assembled m any Northwest school of this size. A battle royal of the gridiron is assured a football -game worth going many miles to see. This city, as well as all of Eastern Oregon, should support the game handsomely not only to have the fun of watching a thrilling contest, but also to pay respects to the school, which is giving such a ; valuable educational service to Eastern Oregon. . ' Particularly should La Grande men and women support the ' school and team by attending the game! Eventually " the ; Normal school here can be the greatest asset to La Grande business stability this has been proven time and again in other college towns and it is our duty to do what we ; can to help the school and its extra-curricular activities, whether they be sporting, dramatics or what not. Everyone possible should be at the gridiron Saturday af ternoon. Prospects seem to be for a game and excilfement that will live a long time in memory.
