TEAM DEFEATED
WALLA WAlLA HIGH SCHOOL
WINS EXCITING GAME OF
BASKETBALL.

BY tie decisive score of % to -16,
the Walla Walla high school invinci-
bles yesterday evening defeated the
Pendleton high school team in one of
the fastest games of basketball games
ever witnessed in this city. The game
was played in the high school gym

basketball fans who became so ex-

Although the Pendleton boys out
weighed the local team, the latter made
up for weight with agility and quick
ness. ana these two valuable assets
were instrumental. in large measure,
for the high score made by the home
team. Rough playing characterized the
game from start to finish, due to the
ferceness Of the struggle and the
evenness Of the opposing players.
Blackman, who starred for the home
aggregation, was disabled somewhat
with sore foot, but managed to cover
his territory to the satisfaction of the
teams supporters. Bollerman, captain
of the team. vas in the game from
start to finish. and demonstrated that
he can play basketball as good as he
can baseball.
1t was Walla Walla's game all the
way through. At the end of the second
the local team. and at no stage of the
play did Pendletor get lead over her
opponents.
Thus far. the Walla Walla team has
experienced no defeat this year, al
though it has encountered some re-
good teams. A short time ago
first team went down to
defeat before the formidable bunch, in
a practice game. and the following
evening the Pearson academy team
was put out of business. 1t is now
probable that the team will go to
Spokane for game which will decide
the championship of the Inland EN-
pire. A return game with Pendleton
will be played in that city some time
