according to the belief expressed by
a member of the local golf club to-
day. A number of the best players
in Pendleton will be unable to make
the trip. and without their services
it was found that a team with any
chance to make a good showing
could not be selected. Walla Walla,
Boise, Baker, La Grande and Pen
dleton were invited to participate in
the tourney. Last year Pendleton
sent a team to the neighboring city,
and plans were made to repeat again

to make up a team found it impos-
sible to get away.
