HIGH SCHOOL
TEAM INV|NC|BLE
ANOTHER GAME TO BE
PLAYED HERE TONIGHT
Normons Out for Revenge are Over
whelmed by AZ TO IL Score-Speed
of Locals Bewilders.

Displaying a speed and teamwork
that was simly amazing, the Pendle-
ton high school basketball team last
night swamped the NJ. 1. \. team of
La Grande by the overwhelming score
of AZ to u. The tide of victory, how
ever, did not turn until the second
half but it came with a flood when
II did turn.
The first half ended with the local
boys but four points in the lead, the
score being II to : and throughout
this entire portion of the game, the
large crowd which had gathered in
the high school gym witnessed a
struggle as fast, as fierce and as ex-
citing as was ever seen on a floor in
this city. Each man on both teams
put forth every atom of energy and
every ounce of steam that his body
possessed and the spectators were al
most bewildered by the rapidity with
which the players raced from one end
OF the hail to the other fighting every
inch of the way for possession of the
ball. In this half Pendleton dropped
the sphere into the basket five times
from the field and once from the foul
fouls and two field goals
The Second Half.
In the second half, however, the
local boys demonstrated their super
ior capabilities. The vital force Of
the La Grande boys seemed to have
been spent by their heroic efforts in
the first half while that Of the locals
appeared to be undiminished. They
started the canto at a pace that no
one thought they could maintain, but
from whistle to whistle. they never
slackened one perceptible bit. This
pace soon told on their heavier and
older opponents and, as they began
TO grow tired, the machine like pro-
clivities Of the home team began to
assert themselves with the result that
basket followed basket in quick sue
cessiOn from all points and angles. In
this half the visitors scored but one
lone goal from the field while three
balls were dropped into the basket
from the foul line. Pendleton scored
81 points during this inning while
the Mormons only garnered five.
In justice to the visitors, however, it
must be said that they were handi-
capped 10 some extent by the low CELL
ing which interfered with their long
passes, but the local boys assert they
were also under a handicap in being
forced TO use the visitors ball which
was much softer than the one to
which they had been accustomed and
consequently more difficult to pass
and catch.
Stars of the Game.
For the home team, every individ-
ual member was a star of the first
magnitude and in the aggregate they
made up a constellation, a brighter
than which never shone in the local
armament. But If any one mans
work showed up more resplendid
than any others, it was that of young
Tom Boylen, the fiery headed whirl-
wind forward. Of the total ~ points
scored by his team, to his accurate
shooting goes the credit Of IS and
TO his field work a number Of others.
Time and again he electrified the

/ crowd by some sensational feat and
his agility and speed have never been
| equalled by a wearer of the big P
in all the history of the high school.
Chapman, the other forward, whose
aim at the basket is almost always
unerring, had an off night last night,
and missed many goals that ordinar-
| lily he would have scored with ease
However, he made nine points as it
was and his passing made possible
many more.
Houser, at center, was pitted against
the hardest player the Mormons had
with them and the contest between
these two men was we'll worth watch
ing. From first to last they battled
each other to a standstill, each man
scoring three baskets from the field.
But the one factor which was re-
sponsible for the smallness of the
Mormon score was the guarding of
the Jordon brothers which was so well
nigh perfect that the formidable for
wards of the visitors were rendered
powerless. Few indeed were their
chances at the basket so completely
were they covered up, and these few
trials were made only under the most
difficult circumstances and availed
their team not one point. Cliff Jordan
also demonstrated that he can throw
baskets as well as he can prevent his
opponent throwing goals over him.
During the last half he dashed down
the hall four different times and drop
ped the ball into the iron hoop thus
scoring eight points for his team.
For the visitors, Bean, the center,
was the bright particular star, scor-
ing the only three field goals credited
to his team and holding the redoubt-
able Houser down to a like number.
Lindsey proved TO be a hard fighter
but he met his match in young Art
Jordan Childers was the best man

Of Amieable Negotiations
Between Two Powers.

st. Petersburg, March 1.-THE
Russo Chinese imbroglio has develop
ed three distinct situations, each OF
considerable concern to this govern

In the first place, Russia has awak-
ened to the fact that China's deep.

the failure of amicsble negotiations.
Next, the Novoe Vremya makes the
unusual intimation that there is dis.
cord in the government over the
measures to be undertaken against
China.
Poor Food for Soldiers.
The third situation is revealed in
disqueting dispatches from the army
on the Chinese frontier. These re.
ports describe a disturbance among
the soldiers over the poor quality of
the food provided for them. An out
break was prevented only by the tact
of the commanding general, who or

season, and a dependence for supplies

News of the movement of the troops

Russia. Other papers are silent on
the subject.
