LOCAL SCHOOL
TAKES THE LEAD
HEADS MOVEMENT FOR
CLEANER ATHLETICS
Cali for Conference of Representatives
of All High schools in Eastern Ore.
gOn Will BE Issued by Local Stu
dent Body-Dcbates and Oratorical
Contests VIII Also BE Discussed

Pendleton High school took lead
in the movement for cleaner and bet
ter athletics in the high schools of
eastern Oregon when yesterday at a
meeting of the executive committee Of
the high school student body it was
unanimously determined to call Il
conference of the high schools of the
eastern part of the state to set stand
ards of eligibility for participation in
interscholastic events.
Under rules to be adopted by the
conference il is expected that sched-
ules will be arranged whereby the re-
spective football, baseball and basket
ball championships of the eastern part
of the state will be effectively deter
mined. The conference will also prob
ably consider putting track athletics
upon more satisfactory basis than
at present and is to assume a general
supervision of all interscholastic con-
tests including those of a literary ma
ture.
The importance of the movement
fathered last evening by the Pendleton
High school will be felt most strongly
in the football and other athletic re-
lations between eastern Oregon
schools. Strict rules will be drawn
through which only bona fide stu
dents will be allowed to participate in
any contests between schools.
While hitherto it has generally
been supposed that only students
could participate in such games, there
has been no stringent regulation. and
instead of a rule limiting the eligibil-
ity of high school players In football,
for instance, there was nothing to
prevent a star player from repeated
ly entering school every fall and par
| ticipating in every game until the
occurrence of his marriage-after
which in one conspicuous instance
the "star" might develop into coach.
A regulation prohibiting the play
ing of new men who have not been
members of their respective school
| bodies for a certain specified time
previous to partaking in any games
will also be adopted in all probability.
This afternoon following the close
of school at the high school the stu
dent body will hold its semi-annual
meeting for the midwinter season.
Although nothing definite is aunoun-
( ced as to the purpose of the meeting
, it is supposed that several matters OF
more or less importance to the stu
dents will be brought up at the meet
| ing.

chance led to the opening of the chest
that the body of the young bride was

chest in which the poor bride was
