If ever a football team was bal
anced on a fence precariously,
ulli, on one side the green pas
lures of victory, and on the
other, the brown and dusty grass
of defeat, it is the I.a Grande
high school eleven.
o
These arc the facts. A 1-5 roc
ord for the season. That's not
at all a marvelous mark. On the
other hand, the club is 0-1 in the
Bine Mountain Conference. That's
riot so bad anyone would jump in
tlje ocean over the fact. Particu
larly when the schedule shows
three more conference games to
go. Facts would show too, that
its even possible to win the con
ference title but that mark is a
long way from home at the mo
ment.'
The highest part of that fence
faces the Tigers tomorrow night

o
The Dalles is 0-2 in the loop,
showing losses to Baker, 26-12,
and last weekend to Pendleton,
20-7. La Grande's only loss is to
Pendleton, 19-13. The margin of
victory ny tne Bucks would in
dicate that La Grande would be
tne favored tomorrow night... A
check of statistics in the Pendle-
ton-lhe Dalles game a week- ago
indicates this is not necessarily
so. The Dalles led in first downs
in that game 15-14 and tied Pend
leton in net yardage, both clubs
netting 249 yards. The ' Bucks
used the same tactics that won
them the La Grande gamee. Quick
1'D's and then hold the other
team inMho final two quarters!
It certainly worked in both in
stances. Coach Franz llaun may start
sophomores and juniors only in
ne game Friday night. They de
feated Baker juniors and sopho
mores 33 0 on Monday night in a
eame and have been tearing
holes through the senior line all
week in drills. The older Tigers
may be sitting on the sidelines
come game time. , . -
Eastern Oregon College's elev
en has lost its last two games, but
that's possible when you lose
in doing so. Only a momentary
slack in pass defense allowed
the Oregon Tech Owls, who are
running away from the crowd in
the conference, to win by a 27-6
count two weeks ago. Then the
loss of two key players, John
Willmarth and Sam -Clack, in the
game, undoubtedly hurt . the
Mounts'' cause. And last week
Coach Arch Dunsmoor s . crew
scored 12 points on the huge
Westminster club more than any
of the Parson's opponents have
done this year in its own-confer
ence. Orgcon Tech scored' six
o win against the Salt Lake City
club, but those points and EOC's
12 are only points on the Parson's
debit' ledger this year. Saturday
it's Portland State at Portland

Deer hunter success in Grant
county has been good. Deer are
on the move and weekend success
should be good with improved
hunting in all areas. Road con
dittons are ' still passable but
quickly become muddy with
storms. Chains should be carried
when leaving main roads.
Deer hunting has improved in
fhe Wheeler and Heppner units
with the rectent rain. Wheeler
unit areas - producing deer are:
upper Kanler. basin, Wheeler
point, . Long Prairie, Kinzua,
breaks of the John Day river, and
adjacent . to agricultural lands
where hunting by permission is
allowed. Hunters should have
permission to .'hunt on private
land.' Heppner unit areas pro.
diiclng deer are: North fork of
the John pay rjver, Ant Hill, Tup-

Fair weather has allowed ani
mals to stay high and scattered.

best bet for deer hunters with
