La GRANDE FACING BIG /
SEASON, LACKS COACH

| La Grande's school authorities arc
worrying. Their discontinue has just
came about through the resignation Of
Charles shrimp" Reynolds, athletic
coach there. With school opening only
| a Few days hence and no athletic
coach, superintendent A. C. Hampton
is reported mighty busy trying to land
successor.
Reynolds made good at La Grande
i'm athletics and it was thought that he
would be on the job again this fall.
Efforts TO retain him, however. are
said to have failed. To make mat
tcrs worse. Baker and Pendleton have
both signed new men, strong athletes.
in the persons OF George Dewey and
Richard Hanley. La Grande. Baker
ard Pendleton are natural rivals.
Dates for both football and basket
ball with Baker and La Grande have
already been scheduled by Pendleton
high school. Each team will meet the
other once in football and twice in
basketball according TO present ar
rangements. Pendletons eleven will
journey to Baker for @ football game
on Armistice Day. November II and
La Grande's team will come here for
the big THANKSGIVING day contest.
Games with The Dalles and sWaiia
walla high schools are certain to be
arranged and other high schools in
this section, including some of those In
southeastern Washington, probably
will get in on the schedule.
The basketball season will find La
Grande's quintet in the local gym on
the night of February 4. Baker will |
be here on Lincoln's birthday, Febru- |
airy IL. Pcndleton will play both La
Grande and Baker on its trip of the
week end, going to La
Grande on February. is and to Baker
the following day. II
Interest among the high school
boys who play football is growing al
ready with prospects of a high class
coach here. and the thud of boot on
pigskin two weeks hence probably will
be accompanied by the presence of q
arge squad.
