Enterprise won the toss and re ceived the kick-off, defending the south goal. Lockwood ran the ball back ten yards, and on the (irst down Conaway and Face promptly worked the forward pass (or (Kty yards. Forsythe was sent around the end (or fifteen yards, but an Enterprise Player was off side and the home team suffered a penalty o( (Kteen . yarus. Lockwood made 7 yards around end and Bilyeu was Rpnt through tackle (or ten yards be(ore ne was downed by the entire Jo seph back field. The next play failed to gain yardage and Pace dropped back (or a punt which was cleverly blocked by Martin. This gave Joseph! the ball. Two line plays were unsuccessful and Berland punt ed twenty yards to Bauer. Anoth er forward pass from Conawav to Fleener netted Enterprise twenty-(lve yards and a(ter two unsuccessful line bucks Pace tried a drop-kick but tailed. Joseph took the ball on their 25 yard line and on ;ome fierce line plunging by Martin and Beriand, together with a (orward pass, worked the ball to Uie center o( the Held, where the first hal( end ed with no score. In the second half Pace kicked o(( (or Enterprise lioner returning the kick 15 yards; Joseph worked the ball to their own 60 ya.nl line where they were forced to punt, and on the play were penalized 25 yards (or holding. Here McCully punted to, the center of the field, uieener ran the ball in ten yaTda7the (orward pass netted 20 more; Will Bauer was sent through right guard (or (our yards; Lockwood made two more through led tackle and here Pace was again sent back (or a drop kick. Every man in the line held like a stone wall. Crumoack er made a beautiful pass and Pace's trusty right root booted the pigskin squarely between the goal posts' for the only score of the game. A(ter this Enterprise took no chances and usually punted on the (irst down. keeping the ball In Joseph territory all the re3t o( the game. Near the end of the game Joseph worked a very neat (ake play when Martin was sent into the line with a head gear under his arm. which looked so much like the ball) that; all the men in the Enterprise, line were upon him be(ore they discovered that Mc- Cully was circling their right end with the ball. Eaj Weaver was the first man to et wise to the Dlay and he showed the big crowd that be could sprint some himself, by run ning down the Joseph quarterback. The game ended with the ball near the center ot the field- The Enterprise team was weakened by the loss o( Burnaugh and Homan Doth being kept out of the gams by Injuries. This made It necessary to take Pace out o( backfield and put him at guard. Putman took Bur- naugb's place at center and made a good showing. Punting honors were about even between Fleener of Enterprise and McCully o( Joseph The Enterprise line played good ball while Bauer at (ull and Lockwood and Forsythe at halves proved s tower of strength, both In advancing the ball and on defense. Conaway thowlng of forward passes excelled anything seen In that department of the game,' For Joseph, Martin, Berland and McCully played the best ball, al though; the (irst , named seemed to think the game was too tame aud had' a chip on his shoulder ell during the game. Or. Irwin of Joseph, and Sheets of Enterprise, were the officials and gave" entire satisfaction to both sides. The two teams were evenly match ed In weight, Joseph making up In the: 'backfield what they lacked In tbs line.

The teams were evenly matched In weight and age; but the superior joaehing of the county team was In jvldence and demonstrated that Prof. Shirk's ability as a coach ranks aigh. The first touchdown was secured :pon a (orward pass, which Dick Mc Vdams placed behind the goal posta ifter a sprint of twenty-five yards ; the next was the result of a well executed "fake"' play In which Asa Craig secured the attention of the od- posing line,- while Jake Bauer carried the coveted pigskin across the line, and then kicked goal. The Wallowa bunch are a husky lot of players, and a set of real gentlemen, as was evinced by their lean, manly conduct, both upon the field and In their capacity of host The W. C. If. S. boys may feel proud of their record which stands: Two sames won; one tie and but one defeat. WEDDING BELLS.
