Half a dozen smaller' merchants

One bag of sand is little protection from a

them piled together lias allowed a small force
to repel a charge of man and bullet power
many times stronger.
A savings nccount is like that, too. One de
posit, made and. then forgotten, amounts to
very little. Add to those deposits regularly
and you'll have a sum that will protect you
from a "sui-priso attack" of financial hard

TIGERS DEFEAT
UNION 31 TO 14
IN OPENING TILT
Playing In form expected to be dis
played In mid-January Instead of
mid-December, the Tigers basketball
team upset the fast-coining Union
Bearcats liere last night 33 to 14 to
open their season with a victory. The
second team also won from the Union
seconds, 31 to 13.
Rarely has a La Grande team shown
as much teamwork and smoothness
this early In tho season, and that.
coupled with Ralph De Bole's stellar
work, accounted for the win.
DeBole. a veteran guard from last
year, consistently broke through
Union's close defense to score shots
of the "set-up" variety. His total
for the evening was seven field goals
-14 points. Kenneth Webb, an
other veteran guard, broke through
twice In the last half to score.
' On the defense, the Webb-Debole
combination and the Osborn-Irwln
combination both functioned nicely,
particularly the former. .
Toll Tom Zlvkovlch, starting at
center, gave promise of winning out

ing twice, and getting the tip-off
with regularity. Stitt and Hyde,
working at forward positions, turned

Fans, summing up the situation.
decided that La Grande would again
be a factor In the district race, but
speed and defensive strength prob
ably will predominate, instead of the
high scoring . tactics used by last
year's champs.
The Tigers at times last night were
slow to take the offensive, but at
other times broke rapidly, giving
promise of more consistent speed later
on. There was some fumbling, also,
On the-other hand, the Union at
tack was slower than expected, partly

Bobcats, accounting for seven points,
with Reuter, sub center, ringing two
field goals In the last half.

SUCCESS OF 0.0.
SQUAD DEPENDS
ON NEW PLAYERS
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
(Special) Hopes for a winning Ore
gon basketball quintet this year will
depend to a great extent on the show
ing of several newcomers to the Web
foot 1D34 squad. .
This was the opinion of Bill Rein-
hart, head coach of the Webfoota,
after looking over his prospects for
the first time. Bel n hart has Just re
covered from a long selge of Illness
which has kept him away from his
coaching duties.
Only five lettermen returned for
the 1934 season and with the con
ference season but a month away, two
have been, injured and will not be
able to take part In practice until
late in this month. Jim Watts, two
year veteran guard, broke bis cheek -bono
the second week of drill, while
Bob Miller, big forward who was
tagged for a regular berth this sea
son, crackedj two bones In his wrist
which will keep him on the bench
for at least three weeks.
This leaves Gilbert Olinger, cap-
taln-ecct and a guard; Jack Robert
son, sharpshootlng forward with two
years of experience, and Bill Berg,
reserve guard last year, to form tho
nucleus of the team.
To fill the center post left vacant
by tho graduation of Charles "Cap"
Roberts, Relnhort Is depending upon
Wlllard Jones, six foot four Inch
transfer from Ashland Normal. An
other former SONS star, Budd Jones,
husky guard, is expected to make a
strong bid for a guard position.
Ron Gcmmell, a transfer from East
ern Oregon Normal school, is leading
the field of candidates for a forward
post.
Miss Freda Thompson was tho f Irst
woman In Australia and the third in
the British Empire to qualify for a
flying Instructor's license.
