Local sports notes include Oregon bound graduates and standout javelin mark
Henry Heldenrich of La Grande will matriculate at the University of Oregon next fall where his long arm should aid in the javelin. Will Neil, a Oregon freshman, broke the javelin record last Saturday in Eugene after earlier catching attention in La Grande. Bradley improves at bat and gains fan favor, though his on field demeanor draws comment. A Cove fan notes Cherry Pickers will still compete despite players leaving. Slats Grier from Enterprise is described as a stylish ladies’ man and Baker City’s jinks persist as Union played 12 innings without a hit.
