The "off horse" controversy being aired in the Portland Oregonian will have no bearing on the riders at the Pendleton roundup. There buckaroos generally are off the horse, and which side they get off is not a topic for argument. Cyrus Whoopfall saya the idea of a $3.00 auto licence fee tends to cheapen all good machines. Cy. claims the fee applicable to Fords of ancient vintage, but late model cars should be allowed to throw all the "dog" possible, even to the extent of an $100.00 license tag.

News Of Busy Shaniko County Nurse, Miss Sena Peterson spent Tuesday afternoon examining the pupils of the Shaniko schools. The Tygh Valley Juniors played our quintet here last Thursday night in one of the fastest and best matched games played this season. In weight, size and ability the boys were equals.. The Tygh group started scoring, but the Shaniko Juniors rapidly caught up. When the whistle blew ending the last quarter the score stood 18 18. After a two-minute re6t playing was resumed for a five-minute per iod. The only foul called during the entire' game enabled the visitors to win the needed point Thereafter each side scored a basket, the game ending 21-20 in favor of Tygh Valley. Coach, Paul Light of Tygh Valley refereed the game. Several rooters for thir team were present from Tygh. The Shaniko Juniors played Tygh Valley at that place on Wedesday, March 14.

Tygh Valley Doings The Junior basketball team of Tygh met and defated the corres ponding team of Shaniko-Antelope in the hall at Shaniko on last Thurs day, March 8, with a 6core of 21-20. The game was hard fought from the very start At the end of the first quarter the score was 6 to 0 in the favor of Tygh. By a most deter mined effort the Shaniko boys tied the score at the end of the fourth quarter, and it was necessary for an extra period to be played to deter mine the winner. The members of the Tygh junior team are: Kenneth Webb, center, guards: Wilbur Math ews, and uarrei wing; iorwarus: Arthur LuCore and Raymond Sta cey, the latter being also captain.

The return game is to be played at Tygh Friday evening, the 16th. at this time the Tygh juniors will play the Boy Scout team of Dufur making two games for the one evening. The High school dance given on last Friday night was an enjoyable affair. The crowd was not large compared to our former crowds, but was composed of folks, who know how to enjoy themcelves and we are pretty certain' everybody had a good time. It might be interesting to the pub lic to know that since the High school has taken over and remodled the old barn, now known as their "gym," the cash receipts have been $919.26. Only just a few steps more and we will be entirely out of the woods, which means that the property will be entirely paid for. We appreciate the support and encourgement we have had from our own community and those communities adjoining Tygh. We are trying to make our dance floor, our orchestra,, our plays, and everything connected with the school the very best, to the end that the people who so loyally sup ported us may have value received for their money. The Freshman play, as announced in this issue of The Times, will be given Saturday evening, March 24, m the I. V. V. f . nan. me aance to be given immediately after the play, will be in the new gymnacium.
