Grande' High school senior class' play "The IntiV miate Strangers", goes down in' local records as one of ne best dramatic productions presented here by an amateur cast. From the director, Miss Kathryn Sartin, down through' the actors, managers, etc., all those. who helped to make the production a success are deserving of a great deal of credit; FOG AND AIR TRAVEL . .LuGranfle, besides ta geographical location which mattes it ideal as an inland air travel center, has another good point th'qt 'ispe$iaps 'he most outstanding of all. Jt is absence lof fog. The other night, it was learned that every airport of consequence in the far western states was covei-ed with a blanket of fog with the sole exception of La Grande. When permanent' airports of gravel are finally decided on in the Pacific northwest, that matter of fog should go a long way toward giving La!Grande a favorable position.. " TE ,B0XJNG TOURNAMENT , ,.

Probably more action will be seen during any one night of the three-day tournament than during two 'op three profes sional cards, and all indications point to unusually large crowds. It will be one of those events wherein the fighters ge,t no money, but they'll be fighting for the glory of a title, and there's bound to be battling galore. And li&y the best bnan win!
