clean up Lapwai in their game on
the reservation Friday afternoon, and
Lapwai showed considerable strength
last Sunday when they all but trim
| med NeZperce. Outside of the close
call Nezperce had Sunday, they have
won all games easily, except in their
contests with OrofinO, both of which
have been close and have resulted in
a game apiece.
Grangeville likewise has lost but
one game, and that also to team it
had previously won from. The KAN
riah Indians, the only ones who have
picked game from Grangeville,
were decisively defeated by Grange
vile in the first game, and also in
their games with Nezperce and Orc
fino, so that the Indians are practic-
ally out of the running for this year.
The dope seems to be that the laur-
els will eventually fall on Lapwai.
