Leonhardt, of La Grande, for his party nomination for superintendent of public instruction. Leonhardt, who has an excellent record, who has proved his merit in the years he has taught school here, and who certainly has nothing that detracts from his qualifications for the position ho seeks, should receive the 100 per cent support of the Democratic voters of Union county. .Leonhardt lias been teaching school for 21 years, and du ing that time was principal at Gladstone for seven years and superintendent at Alilwaukio for seven years. lie now Is principal of Central school here, and is also president of the Young Democrats of Union county. He emerged from the World War 'a second lieutenant and also saw service with the 3rd Oregon on the Mexican border. Present indications are that Leonhardt very likely will be the Democratic candidate for the supenntendency in the fall election., ' ' i .. FLIGHT TO ROME ENDS IN IRELAND JJVH3NCH.

Tbfls was man's way of building a memorial which should always stand os' a tribute to those who had given tltrlr lives that we might live In se curity. But Ood and nature fashion ed a living memorial which marks the last resting place of those who, paid the supreme sacrifice tho Uttlol blood-red poppy growing wild on tho fields of France. Even midst tho terrtblo devastation of batUo this benvo little 1 lower did Us best to cqvor tho scars miul0 by sholls and gins, BocauAo of this It Is very fit tliigi that once eaoh year an army of peace-loving women go forth on tho streets of our cltlos and towns, nell Jiig the Memorial flowor that the Am- erica n public may help pay Its' Just debt to those for whom the wur will never end.

J, HE Tigers Defeat Elgin n Last Game 7 to .5 (Continued frcoi Page On. This, the second year of baseball for L. H. S.. shows a distinct Improve ment over 1933. when the La Crawl ers wound up In the cellar with, one win and five losses. Next year the Tigers expect to be a real factor In the pennant battle. There was. plenty to seo in Tues-j day's game, but it was a surprise! bunting attack by the Tigers in the, fifth iimitifr that gave the fans the; biggest kick. , With the score 4 to 8 in -favor of la Grande, Arnold us, first up, ftnlntffl first on Henry's error. Then Walden sacrificed him to second, but was safe himself on Heed's error. Leonard, next up, singled, and Robertson laid down a pretty bunt and both Kncze vlch and Phlppen, ElRln battery inn t os. mnde a dash for the ball while Robertmn streaked it for first. Then both decided It was the other's and stfpi e :l and Robertson was safi with a scratch hit to his record and ArnoldUK had scored! With the bases full and none out Biirps laid down another bunt, and Walden streaked heme, the Elln Infield handling the bull too slowly. Leonard also scored that Inning on a passed ball. Leonaii:l pitched the fir.', three in nings for the Timers and receives credit for the victory, his teammates bringing In four runs enough to win while he held KI::in to one hit and no scores. Your?;; relieved Leon ard In the fourth, and was promptly hammered for thro scores before he settled down. From then on Young was master of the situation, allowing two hits In three frames. Defensively, the Tigers played their, bejit ball of the season, making only' two crrom and completing one double play. A Kceond double almost, resulted but Walden dropped the ball on i sure throw from lJlgus In rt;;ht field. The prlre "boner" of the day came in the second Inning when Arnoldus, with the bases loaded, stepped up and whacked tho ball over center flolder's head for a home run. But after he came In. it was learned he missed touching second baw. so only two of the run tiers on base when lie hit were counted aa scores and Ar noldus' homer went for a single. But then, big leaguers havo done the same tiling! A fair-sized crowd witnessed the game. Tho box score; " - Elgin: Henry, 3 Cope, g Cummins, rf Phtppen, c ....
