Residents recently targeted in a direct mailing have beenoffered free airfareand hotel rooms.

Police and the local travel agency remind would-be travelersofan old adage: Ifit'stoogood tobe true,it

At least severalLa Granderesidents received letters recently with their names and addresses on them that indicated they "have been selected to receive 2 round-trip airline tickets on American, Delta, Southwest, United or other major airline, plus 2 nights ofhotel accommodations providedby a Marriott, Intercontinental, Hilton or Hyatt hotels."

If one calls within 72 hours, they will receive a "bonus" three-day car rental

plusa $50 cash giftcard,the letter says.

After dialing the toll-free number provided in the letter, callers are prompted by the representativetoprovide the offer number also listed in the letter. The company representative then invites the caller to a presentation.

For La Grande residents, they were invited to the Pendleton Oxford Suites for one of severalpresentations.

When asked for a website, the representativedirects peopleto aw ebsitefor Global Options Travel.

Andrea Asmussen, officer manager at Alegre Travel in La Grande, said two people came in with letters.

"The only thing to really tell them is if it looks too good to be true, it probably is," she said.

La Grande Police Lt. Derick Reddington said if some-

one offers something for free, there's a good chance it's a scam. Reddington had not heardofthisparticular letter.

''We always tell people itol never give any of your personal information over the telephone, not that these are always done by telephone," he said."Always use caution with who you're giving your information to."

Reddington said the police department usually refers people to the attorney general's offrce.

'There's a possibility they have a track record," he said, noting that the AG's office has "better and bigger resources" to help with fraudulent claims.

According to Better Business Bureau, Global Options Travel is not BBB accredited and has a C- rating.

PENDLETON — Sen. Bill Hansell, R-Athena, announced Thursday he has arranged a new Legislative delegation for many membersofthe majority party to visit Eastern Oregon in the hopes of educating them on issues facing rural Oregon.

"I am very excited about the trip we have planned formy colleagues from the valley," Hansell said.

'The conversation began

when ioregonl Sen. iChrisl Edwards joined me for this year's Pendleton Round-Up. We started talking about rural issues and wolves in the Blue Mountains. I asked if he would like to come out for a one-on-one experience. He said he would love it and we began to work on the details.

Now, we have expanded the trip from just Edwards to a delegation oflegislators."

The delegation oflaw makers includes Hansell, Edwards, D-Eugene, Sen. Betsy Johnson, D-Scappoose, Sen. Lee Beyer, D-Springfield, Sen. Ginny Burdick, D-Portland, Rep. Caddy McKeown, D-Coos Bay, and Rep. Greg Barreto, R-Cove.

"For too long we have been tryingtotellm embers ofthe majority party about the issues that we face in Eastern Oregon," Hansell said."I believe if we can show them first-hand the challenges we face, we will be able to work together to pass legislation that helps instead ofhurts

our region."

The trip will begin Oct. 26 in Boardman. The Eastern Oregon Hansell W omen's Coalition and the Northeast Oregon Water Association are arranging the day's activities in Boardman.

It will include learning about family farming and the challengesoftransferring farms to the next generation, water issues and an overview of the Umatilla basin, a meeting with the Confederated Tribes of Umatilla, and the w aterconservation effortsin agriculture.

The following day, the delegation will head to Wallowa County for a conversation on wolves, human safety surrounding the predators in thearea,forestcollaboratives, and the recent wildfire in Troy.

The day's activates are being arranged by the Cattleman's Association, local ranchers and John Williams of OSU Extension Services in Enterprise.

The La Grande volleyball team reigns supreme in the Greater Oregon League once again.

Ari Rich had 11 kills, Kali Avila had seven aces and Liz Cashell added five as the No. 19 Tigers locked up their fifth consecutive GOL title Thursday, sweeping Ontario 25-10, 25-22, 25-13.

"It means a lot," La Grande head coach Melinda BeckerBisenius said of getting the title again."My kids, we had to work really hard this year. Definitely Ontario's challenged us, Mac-Hi did a little bit too, so it's good."

PENDLETON — Sliding tectonic plates will eventually wreak havoc on much of Oregon.

The Pacific Ocean floor moves st eadily eastward along a 600-mile fault line calledthe Cascadia subduction zone. Earthquake experts say the big one will undoubtedly happen sometime — most likely in the next 50 years. The coming quake will trigger landslides, the collapse of bridges and buildings and a tsunami. Telecommunications, energy, transportation and water systems will be disrupted. Thousands will die. The economy will take a

Biologists are still optimistic for a good rifle elk season in spite of dry conditions that have plagued Northeast Oregon this year

BIOLOGISTS ENTER ELK SEASON WITH A • Despite the lingering heat and fire aftermath, local biologists are hoping for a goodseason

By Jayson Jacoby and Ronald Bond Wescom News Service

Brian Ratliff thinks elk hunters who drew a tag for one of Baker County's four units have ample reasontobe excited about their prospectsfor therifl e seasons later this autumn. cWe've been growing more elk," said Ratliff, the district wildlife biologist atthe Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's Baker City offrce. "Elk in Northeastern Oregon in general, and specifically in Baker County, are doing well."

Among Baker County's units, overall elk numbers, and the

all-important bull ratios exceed ODFWs goals in the Keating, Pine Creek andLookout Mountain units, Ratliff said.

The situation isn't quite as promising in the Sumpter Unit, but even there elk populations are strong and steady, he said.

Ratliff said he and other ODFW biologists saw quite a lot of elk while they were patrolling and checking hunters during the rifle deerseason in early October.

And theyheard the same from many of the hunters they talked with.

"Peoplehave been seeing a lotof elk," Ratliff said.

The historically large wildfires that burned across about 150,000 acres in Baker County this summer probably will affect the movements of elk, particularly in the Sumpter Unit. The CornetfWindy Ridge fire burned about 10 percent

of that unit.

Ratliff said that even if timely rains prompt a new crop of grass in the scorched areas, there won't be enough forage to sustain elk.

Unlike deer, which sometimes will remain in small herds in the unburned or more lightly burned pockets within a larger fire, elk almost always go elsewhere after a big blaze, Ratliff said.

In the case of the CornetfWindy Ridge fire, that elsewhere, in many cases, unfortunately is private agricultural land.

Ratliff said there have been an unusually high number of complaints this fall from landowners in places such as the Burnt River Valley on the south edge of the Cornet/ W indy Ridge fi re.

Although ODFW has issued damage hunt tags for some of those properties, it's likely that during the two main elk seasons — Oct.

28 to Nov. 1 and Nov. 7 to Nov. 15 — some of the elk will remain on private property and, except with the landowner's permission, off limits to hunters.

But the fire's displacing of elk isn'tnecessarily a complete lossfor hunters, Ratliff said.

He expects that some elk have migrated west of the CornetfWindy Ridge fire, possibly into the areas around Black Mountain and Huckleberry Mountain south of Phillips Reservoir, and farther west toward Whitney Valley.

Much of that area is public land open to hunters.

Ratliff doesn't expect any significant effect on elk movements due to the Eagle Complex fire in the southern Wallowa Mountains, however.

He said that blaze didn't burn as severely as CornetfWindy Ridge.

TO-DO LIST

AREA HUNTING CONDITIONS

A look at select reports in Northeast Oregon Baker County:Blue grouse can be found in the higher elevations while ruffed grouse are more common in wetter areas. Hunters should expect an average year for grouse. Successful hunters are asked to place the tails and wings from harvested birds in the collection barrels.

Union County:Black bears are plentiful throughout the county. Look for signs around fruit trees and in canyon bottoms. Bears can beconcentrated along creeks and rivers in the late summer. This year's berry crop is not quite what 2014was but should still make for good early season bear hunting.

Wallowa County:Cougar numbers are moderate throughout the county. Most lions are taken incidental to other hunting; however, calling with fawn bleat, or locating a cougar kill and waiting for a cat to return are often successful techniques.

have a confession to make.

I'm somewhat concerned that making this confession could cause me to become an outcast given the area of Oregon I now live in. But here itgoes: I'm probably one of the few people in northeast Oregon that is not an avid hunter.

Avid probably isn't the right word. Let me rephrase that: I don't remember the last time I hunted.

Now, it's not because I have anything against hunting. I totally understand while people do it. Whether for the sport, the exercise, the extra meat hunting can provide or any other reason.

And there are several membersofmy family who have hunted or do hunt and have come away successful.

For whatever reason, though, Ineverlatched onto thatparticular activity.

Basketball, football, baseball, etc. became my thing. Taking in a sporting event, whether in personor on television,or even participating in one, is what makes a good day for me.

That's not to say I've never hunted, because I have.

And it very well may have been a success, if I had just pulled the trigger.

I vaguely remember the hunt, though. The details are foggy, but it's worth a try to tell the story.

I was probably 13 or 14 years old, and my dad, cousin and I had antlerl essdeertagssomewhere outside of the Vale area.

I think we only went out one day, but spent the whole day searching and coming up empty.

That was until I, the young, inexperienced one of the group, happened upon what should have been a jackpot late in the afternoon.

I came up to the peak of a hill, and on the next nob over stood probably five or six deer, just ripe for the taking.

A sense of awe overcame me, that,"No way, this just happened to me" kind ofawe.

I was going to get a deer. My first deer.

But I panicked. Unsure of what to do with this goldmine, I didn't settle in to take the shot right.

Instead, I hollered at my cousin, Nate, to come check it out.

Before long, the deer had taken off, and I don't recall if Nate had made it up to see them or not.

Regardless, the chase was on.

A race not only to try and track them down, but to beat the fading sun.

As I recall, we followed them down into a valley and reached the bottom.

luck, frequently an essential element in a successful elk hunt — game cameras can at least help hunters avoid blundering about for days in country that elk have temporarily abandoned.

Game cameras can give hunters vastly more information than they can gather no matter how much time they can devote to pre-season scouting.

Above all else,cameras have theadvantage ofbeing on duty at all times.

No sleeping late and missing the period around dawn when elk tend to be more active.

A bull elk walks in front of a game camera. Game cameras can be an effective tool to use for scouting animals.

he question has at some point plagued every elk hunter, infecting the subconscious like a nasty virus.

Where do the elk go?

And how do they get there?

Do they travel between dimensions like characters in a cheap pulp science fiction novel?

Are they shape-shifters, capable of disguising themselves as trees?

Anyway, there seems to be something, well, supernatural about these massive animals' ability to evade, to fool, to confound.

This, of course, is no small part of the reason why so many hunters spend so m uch moneyand time, and endure considerable hardships, just to get a big bull in their crosshairs.

Still and all, I suspect most of us who have pursued the wapiti would prefer to demystify the elk, at least partially.

I recommend the game camera.

These remote-controlled gadgetscertainly won'tguarantee a hard-luck elk hunter will bag a six-point.

But deployed properly-

Inquisitive elk can dislodge a game camera, as happened a few images later in this case. It's wise to place the cameras high enough to thwart curious animals.

You can spend less than that on a game camera, or more than twice as much.

But $100 is a reasonable pricefora basicm odel.

Regardless ofcost,they have the same basic purpose: tophotograph (orshootvideo, depending on the model) everythirgthat moves pastthe inlraredbeam thattripsthe camera's shutter, day or night.

There's plenty of things movingin the woods, of course, and even the most sophisticatedgame camera can'ttella raccoon fiom an elk.

But there are ways to reduce the chances that your camera's memory card will expend mostofitsgigabytes on blurry images of tree branches swaying in a

strong breeze.

Irecommend you bring along a hatchet or bow saw when you set up the camera, to clear limbs that could obscure the view or, worse, result in a bunch of worthless pictures.

Most cameras come with straps or bungee cords by which you can affix them to a tree trunk.

A coupleofothertips: • Make sure to install new batteries before you put up the camera.

• Check the memory card to ensure it's not nearly full. If you plan to check the camera often, you can buy an extra card — computer memory is pretty cheapand swap cards each time.

You can place a camera anywhere on public land, of course.

But obviously, your chances ofgarnering usefuldata are much better if you pick a spot where you, or someone you know (and trust) has seen elk.

Ideally youll find a spot where the camera can focus on a place where elk are more likely to walk — the intersection of prominent game trails in asaddle,forinstance.

Because even the simplest camerasinclude date stamps, you can get an idea not only whether elk are using a particular area, but when.

That information might show that evening is likely to be a more fruitfui time than morning.

If Columbian deer populations remain stable or grow, thefedscould considerdelisting it in a couple of years.

Columbian white-tailed deer once thrived throughout the Columbia and Willamette river basins and along the coast fiom the Umpqua River to Puget Sound.

They began disappearing as set tlersexpanded west, converting bottomlands into farmsand timber lots.

"People cleared it for agriculture because that's where the best soils and the water were," said Paul Henson, Oregon's state supervisorfor the fish and wildlife service.

"A lot of the whitetail deer's preferredhabitatturned into grass farms and blueberry patches."

The deer joined the grizzly bear, Florida panther and bald eagle among the nation's first endangered animals after congress passed the Endangered Species Actin 1966.

By then, its population had dwindledto 450deerconfi ned to a small patch of mainland W ashington and afew Columbia River islands. Another small group was discovered in 1978in Douglas County.

hobby.

For Enterprise native and current Oregon City resident Chad Garrett, it was one of those encounters while visitinghisrootsthatopened the door to get into what has become a passion for more than a decade: guiding hunts.

And though he doesn't hunt much personally now, guiding gives him a chance to stayclose to a sporthe loves.

"Ifeelgood forthem iclientsl because I don't hunt much for myself and I love to hunt," he said."It's very gratif ying for me to seea client get their animal and be successful."

Garrett has returned to Wallowa County countless times to guide elk and deer hunts for clients since he began leading hunts about 10 years ago. While he isn't quite certain of the exact number, he believes he has led between 100 and 200 hunters in their quest for an animal.

Garrett grew up hunting and has always had a passion for the sport. He was taught the sport by his dad and began venturing into the field as soon as he was old enough to legally pack a rifle.

He returned home about a decade ago for his brother's wedding and to take care of his dad following a surgical procedure.

It took 48 years, but the Columbian white-tailed deer has pulled back fiom the brink of extinction.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service last week unveiled a proposal to downgrade the deer's status &om endangered to threatened, continuing its protections under the Endangered Species Act with more leeway for state wildlife officials to get involved in managing deer populations.

In a statement, the service' sdeputyregional director, Richard Hannan, saidthe animal'srecoveryis a resultofstate,federaland tribal wildlife managers' combined efforts. The deer's numbers have doubled since its 1967 listing, fiom 450 to about 900 today.

The deer joins the Oregon chub as the Northwest's secondspeciesthisyearto be downgraded or removed fiom the endangered species list. The chub was taken off the list in February.

Deer aren't rare in Oregon, where hunters are &ee to target black-tailed deer, mule deer and Eastern Oregon whitetailed deer,along with elk and pronghorn antelope. The Columbian

"Itgot me hooked after that," he said.

Think about it a minute. Scouting, scentcovers,cal ling,decoys, camouflage, boots iso you don't getblistersandcan keep walking), clothing and setting up a camp. If you don't get any sleep, you won't be able to hunt hard. So I could write a whole article just listing necessary topics/items.

Since I can only write on one topic, let'scoverchoosing a good elk knife — and just one knife won't cut it. Let me explain. You need at least two different knives and really four if you're going to mount the head. Let's cover this.

To mark the pattern on your elk you'll need a clippoint knife so you can cut through the skin and mark the pattern. When I say pattern, this is your initial cut along the belly and out to all four hooves. If you're saving the hide you'll want a droppoint knife which will have a rounded tip. A drop-point will prevent you from cutting through the hide as easily as with a clip-point isharppointed knife). Do you have to havea drop-point? No. I've skinned a ton ofbig game animals with my old fold up clip-point. It's just if you're wanting to save the hide you can skin faster with a droppoint without fearing cutting through the hide. So for sure you need a clip-point knife.

HUNTING TIPS

ODFW pointers for hunting in dry and arid conditions Oregon Department of Fish andWildlife

The mild winter brought both good and bad news for Oregon's deer and elk herds.

Itincreased over-winter survival,buta continued drought will keep conditions dry, crunchy and loud for the hunting season.

Wildlife biologists share these tips for hunting in dry weather: • Slow down. Wear something on your feet that allows you to feel the dry sticks and twigs that are going to make noise when you step on them. You will not be able to cover as much ground, but you will get a better look at the animals you do see.

• Plan to be at your destination early in the morning and late in the evening. When you get there, slow down or sit and use your optics to find deer.

• Hunt areas where you can sit and glass, then develop a stalk that will get you within range without getting so close that all the

noise you make getting there doesn't spook the quarry.

• Hunt from a stand, either tree or ground, and minimize walking.

• Expect big game to be concentrated in areaswhere there isforage.Locate pockets of waterand isolated pocketsoffresh,green forage. Generally, moisture retention is best on north-facing slopes. Animals may only be moving at dawn and dusk, and bedded down much of the rest of the day, especially ifweather ishot.In desertareas,expect deer to use areas with an abundant shrub component in the understory as this will be the only vegetation with any forage value. When in these desert units, focus on mountain shrub habitats within a few miles of water.

• Hunters are also advised togetaw ay from roads and people to hunt, especially for elk.

We launched near SedroWoolley and powered downstream towardthe railroad trestle.

Last time I fished for bull trout in the Skagit, in Western Washington, the pinks were in the river. That was two years ago. The big run hits the river every other summer inodd-numbered years.

They may be fi nicky at times, but pink salmon are the easiest of the Pacific salmon to catch.

The Associated Press

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — A group that opposes trophyhunting hopes the case of an NHL player charged with killing a grizzly becomes a rallying cryto protectbears.

About a dozen members of BearsMatter gathered outside provincial court in Vancouver last week in connection with a court date for Anaheim Ducks defenseman Clayton Stoner.

Stoner is charged with five counts under the provincial Wildlife Act after

a bear was shot on British Columbia's central coast in 2013. He is accused with knowingly making a false statement to obtain a hunting license.

Group member Barb Murray hopes the case raises awareness about such hunting practices.

Murray also wants Stoner to apologize, pay a large fine and contribute to conservation in the province.

Stoner's caseis setfor Nov. 13. A lawyer appearing in court on his behalf says he does not know how the player will plead.

In response to a growing number of cougars in Oregon, the state Department of Fish and Wildlife has increased cougar kill quotas around the state this year.

By Dylan J. Darling

•

WesCom News Service

After nearly a decade of the same statewide limit on how many cougars may be killed in Oregon, state wildlife officials increased the quota for this year.

The quota went from 777, the limit since 2006, to 970 this year.

The higher kill quota comes in response to an increase in the number of the cougars prowling around the state, Michelle Dennehy, spokeswoman for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife in Salem, said Tuesday.

"Our population modeling shows that we are over 6,200 icougarsl now," she said.

The department said the number of cougars in Oregon increased by nine percent from 2006 to 2013 and went up by 96 percent from 1994 to 2013.

The growing population over the years prompted the quota increase this year, said Craig Foster, district wildlife biologist forthe Department of Fish and Wildlife in Lakeview. cWe are justresponding to the number ofcats," Foster said.

In only one part of the state — the Coast/North Cascades region — has the number of cougars actually killed come close to state limits in recent years. The region includes the woods around Sisters. The Department of Fish and Wildlife divides the state into five regions for cougar management. Most of the forests around Bend fall into the Southeast Cascades region, where the number of cougars killed has long been less than the quota.

Before the increase this year, the quota for the Southeast Cascades was 65.

In the five years from 2010 to 2014 an average of 19 cougars were killed in the region,according to Department of Fish and Wildlife data. Not much has changed in the first year of the new 80 quota in this region, with 12 cougarskilled sofar.

In increasing the statewide quota, the quotas for all five regions have bumped up. The quotas cover animals killed by hunters, hit by cars and trucks and killed for safety reasonsorfollowing property damage, such as attacks on livestock. Once the quota is reachedthe stateclosesa region to cougar hunting.

In deciding the quotas, wildlife managers weighed the interests ofhunters, the hopes of people who want to protectcougars and the amount of conflict with cougarspeople would tolerate, Foster said.

The quota is not a target but the upper limit of what could be killed. Fish and

A treed cougar is shown in Northeast Oregon. The Oregon Department of Fish andWildlife has increased the number of cougars allowed to be killed in the state, and this is the first year of the higher quota.

Wildlife does make an exception for cougars causing a risk to public safety or going after pets or livestock.

The state's raising the cougar kill quotas has doubters, including Sally Mackler, carnivore advocate for Predator Defense, a Eugene-based nonprofit trying to protect native predators.

"I don't think there is any real, scientific backing that there is a need to hunt cougars or other large predators," she said.

She wondered why the state would bother to increase the quotas if they were not being hit around Oregon.

Along withraising the quota, the Department of Fish and Wildlife earlier this month announced plans for four cougar target areas next year, where the statedoeshave agoalfor how many cougars need to be killed. Those are based on

reducing safety concerns and livestock conflicts or improving biggame populations,according to the Department of Fish and Wildlife.

On Steens Mountain, one of thetargetareas,the Department of Fish and Wildlife plans to have 10 cougars killed, with the hope of increasing mule deer numbers. The U.S. Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services is set to do the killing.

The ODFW district office in Bend proposed a cougar targetarea near the city,but the Department of Fish and Wildlife rejected the proposal along with a couple of others aroundthestate.Foster said the choice by the state likely came down to cost.

"It's extremely expensive to do this," he said. The agency estimates killing the 10 cougars on Steens Mountain probably will cost about

$12,500.

HUNTING AMMUNITION

Howtherightor wrongiiulletcanmakethedilerence

By Ron Spomer

Pick a winner

Special to The Associated Press

Hunters should choose bullets based on the velocity their cartridges/rifles put out and the size/bulk of game they're targeting. The higher the impact velocity, the harder the bullet should be.

Smaller, thin-skinned game can be addressed with softer, wider mushrooming bullets since deep penetration isn't essential.

Elk, moose and big bears call for tougher,harder, controlled-expansion bullets designedtoretain more mass and penetrate deeply.

Sleek, pointy bullet shapes reduce air drag, which translates into more energy, less drop and less wind drift downrange.

At extreme range, bullet speed and energy drop dramatically from muzzle velocity. The right bullet at 350 yards might be the wrong bulletat50yards.

Finally, keep in mind that bullet placement beats materials, construction and shape every time.

Park your bullet in the rightspot,and itsperformance will be optimum.

It's all about the bullet.

Your hunt hinges on a puny littl e chunk ofcopper or lead that weighs less than a halfounce. So it pays to know and understand big-game bullets.

They are not created equal.

Before we explain these projectiles, consider what you expect them to do: • Fly straight and to the same point of aim every time.

• Land with enough energy to penetrate an animal.

• Expand to rip through more vital tissue.

• Penetrate bones and muscles to reach vital tissue.

ALL TIMES PACIFIC NO. 22 MONTANA-WESTERN AT EASTERN OREGON, 1PM. The Bulldogs are coming off a pair of tough losses, as they fell 37-30 to Southern Oregon and 10-9 to Carroll College. Conversely, the Mountaineers are riding high after upsetting then-No. 4 Carroll College 28-21 in Helena,Montana, lastweekend.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN COLLEGE AT COLLEGE OF IDAHO, NOON This matchup could be the biggest shootout of the weekend in the Frontier Conference. The Coyotes have scored 31.2 points per game, which is tied for third in the conference, while the Battlin' Bears are fifth with 30 points per game. Both defenses have struggled to stop opponents, as well.

MSU-NORTHERN AT NO. 13MONTANATECH, NOON The Lights are still searching for their first win of the season, and of their five conference games, the least amount of points they've yielded is 44.The Orediggers should enjoy a field day on offense as they enter Saturday averaging the second-most points per game in the conference (31.4) and are tied for first place with Southern in the conference standings.

NO. 11 CARROLL COLLEGEAT NO. 2SOUTHERN OREGON, 1 PM. All Frontier eyes will be on Ashland for this premier showdown. The Raiders, which average a conference-best 43.8 points per game, will be out for revenge after the Fighting Saints edged Southern 26-20 in the season opener in Helena, Montana.

PLAyER TOWATCH Eastern Oregon linebacker Gary Posten continues to sparkle in his senior season. After compiling eight tackles against Carroll College (his lowest total of the season), Posten leads the Frontier Conference with 75 tackles on the season and ranks sixth in the NAIA overall.

TREIIR TO WATCH Eastern Oregon must improve its offensive third down conversion rate of 29.3 percent, which ranks secondto-last in the Frontier Conference.

Bulldogs' physical defense poses numerous issues for Mounties

By Josh Benham The Observer

When No. 22 University of Montana-Western comes to play, one thing is clear — it wants to physically beat you up. Judging by some of the Bulldogs' scores this season, they've done a fine job ofthat.

"I think the biggest thing with them is they play fast, and they play extremely hard through six seconds," Eastern head coach Tim Camp said."Our key will be playing to the echo of the whistle."

Montana-Western holds a 3-2 record in the Frontier Conferencebut easily could be 5-0.It fell to No. 2 Southern Oregon University 37-30 in overtime Oct. 10, and was edged by No. 11 Carroll College 10-9 in the previous game. The Bulldogs' physical defense ranks near the top of nearly every defensive category in the conference, showing what that unit is capable of with wins over Montana State-Northern (44-2) and Rocky Mountain College (49-6) earlier in the season.

The Bulldogs are allowing just 107.4 rushing yards and 318.2 totalyards per game, both of which lead the Frontier. Defensive lineman Reno Ward leads the conference in sacks (nine), and linebacker A.J. Wilson is second with four interceptions.

"The strength of their defense istheirlinebacker corps and their defensive linemen," Eastern wide receiver T J. Esekielu said."They're big and strong and they run to the ball every play."

Conversely, their offense is nothing to sneeze at, either.

Montana-Western is averaging 31.2 points and 208.8 rushing yards per game, both of which rank third in the conference.

University of Montana-Western linebacker A.J. Wilson is one of the main components of a defense that has held opponents to just 14.6 points per game.

About the game SERIES HISTORY Eastern Oregon and Montana-Western have met a total of 23 times, with the Mounties holding a 15-8 head-to-head advantage.

Recently, the series has been much closer, as Eastern has won five of the last nine meetings.

BULLDOGTO WATCH The defense for Montana-Western has been stout all season, and one of the top performers is A.J. Wilson. From his linebacker position, Wilson is tied for second in the Frontier Conference with four interceptions, and returned one interception and two fumbles for touchdowns against Rocky Mountain College in the season opener.

EOII OlMitch Staeffler

KEY STATISTIC:Montana-Western's defensive lineman leads the Frontier Conference with six sacks

KEY STATISTIC:The Mountaineers offensive lineman is the lone returning starter

Montana-Western is off to terrific start to the season with a 4-1 record, and a big reason why has been its ability to dominate defensively. The Bulldogs have held opponents to 10 points or less in three games, and it starts with Reno Ward.

The 6-foot-2, 255-pound junior from Deer Lodge, M ontana, haswreaked havoc on off ensive lines from the get-go this year, compiling two sacks in each of the Bulldogs' first two games. Ward has sacked the quarterback a Frontier Conference-leading six times, and his nine tackles for loss is third ranks third in the conference.

Eastern entered 2015 knowing it had to replace four seniors that graduated off of last year's prolific offensive line,andthe unithasbeen up-and-down through the first six games of the season. The Mounties are counting on Mitch Staeffler to lead the battle in the trenches.

The 6-foot-2, 291-pound redshirt junior has the experience of starting last year, and his size should be a bonus against the physical Bulldogs' defense.

Staeffler may not be matched up with Ward the whole game, depending on formations, but his leadership of his youthful line mates will be counted on.

WinoverCarrollSrovidesmuch-neededhoost oy, did Eastern Oregon Uni-

B versity need that.

The wounded Mountaineers sauntered into Helena, Montana, to face then-No. 4 Carroll College with losses in three of four Frontier Conference games. It was a team that was squarely on the ropes.

The Mounties had been defeat-

ed byCollegeofIdaho 40-28 in a game that got away from them in the second half, and had lost two heartbreakers: 38-35 to then-No. 1 Southern Oregon University, and 36-35in doubleovertime to Rocky Mountain College in their most recent game.

'You look back at it, you play the No. 1 team and you thought had them beat," Eastern head

ONTHE SIDELINE JOSH BENHAM coach Tim Camp said.'Then you have a very good Rocky Mountain team, and you have a chance to line up and win it in regulation.

To lose that game in front of your home crowd was tough, because these guys wanted to prove they were a good footballteam."

It may have been two weeks later, but Eastern proved just that when it slugged its way off the ropeswith a 28-21victory over Carroll last Saturday. The reason the team needed that win is twofold. The first, and most obvious, is that the win theoretically keeps

the Mounties in the Frontier hunt that is up for grabs this year.

No. 13 Montana Tech and No. 2 Southern are tied at the top with 4-1 records, No. 11 Carroll and No. 22 University of Montana-Western are second with matching 3-2 marks, and Eastern, College of Idaho and Rocky Mountain sit

tied for third i2-3).

While it appears Eastern is behind the eight-ball, it did defeat Tech earlier and has remaining contests against Southern and Montana-Western, three ranked teams as of this week. It's not going to be easy, but with the way the conference has gone thus far, the final standings most likely will look a lot different. If the Mounties can run the table, who

knows where they end up.

But personally, I felt the other reason Eastern needed that win was thebiggest—for the team's collective psyche. The Mounties had high hopes entering this season. Falling to 1-4 in conference could've put the players in a rut they would be unable to get out of.

So that victory, at the very least, should give Eastern a jolt in the arm to finish the season with that Mountaineer pride.

And even if the early losses prove too difficult to overcome, the Mounties can hang their hats on a memorablevictory thatproved what they'd been trying to show allseason — thatthisisa good football team.

takes next

step in role of leader

By Josh Benham The Observer

Eastern Oregon University head coach Tim Camp pulled his quarterback aside prior to the matchup with Carroll College in front of a raucous crowd.

"I told him, 'Quarterback is the hardest position to play, because everybody thinks they know how you should do it. I just need youto dowhat you do',"Camp said.

Ifhe meant playing like one of the premier Frontier Conference signal-callers, then Zach Bartlow took the message to heart.

While admittedly making some mistakes he'd like to have back, the junior earned his second straight Frontier Offensive Player of the Week honor after leading Eastern to a 28-21 victory over then-No. 4 Carroll Saturday in Helena, Bar t low Montana. Bartlow was 13-for20 passingfor 108yards,butrushed fora season-high 105 yards on 16 carries and two critical touchdowns in the first half that helped the Mounties tie the score at 14-all at halftime.

That performance left Bartlow averaging243.7totalyardsofoffense pergame, which is second in the Frontier. Bartlow had completed 108 passes, which is second in the Frontier, and his 334 rushing yards are the most for a quarterback in the conference and sixth-most overall.

His most important trait so far, however, hasn't been anything that can be measured in yards and touchdowns.

"I think just the confidence level that he has, as a player and a person," Camp said of Bartlo w's greatesttransformation from last year to this year."He's really developedintoa guy thatis aleaderforus.He carries himselflike a quarterback should."

His leadership was sorely needed when Eastern limped to a 1-3 start in the Frontier, and Bartlow knew the team was at a crossroads.

"After the loss to Rocky iMountain College), you could either bag the season and continue playing the game just for fun, or you could work toward something," Bartlow said.'We wanted to work toward something. We're still fighting. I think that's the best way to describe our team. We're not giving up and we've got a lot to play for."

That command of the huddle and the offense, in general, is something that wouldn't have been seen to this extent in 2014. Bartlow had a fantastic sophomore season, passing for 2,318 yards and 19 touchdowns while adding 523 yards and nine scores on the ground for a seniordriven offense.Bartlow credits that squad, plus Camp and offensive coordinator Tyler Paopao, with aiding his progression over the years.

"Last year was the first year I was the full-time starter," Bartlow said."That senior class believed in me and they really gave me a lot of confidence because they had my backthrough anything."

Besides the improved leadership,his confidence has allowed the Waitsburg, Washington, native to shine often despite Eastern's up-and-down start. He threw for 250 yards and three scores with no interceptions in the 36-35 loss to Rocky Mountain, racked up 299 combined yards and four scores in a 38-35 loss to Southern Oregon Universit y and had a 97-yard rushing touchdown in a 40-28 seasonopening loss to College of Idaho. ''We have designed runs forme ,andif things don't work out in the passing game, it's something I can fall back on," Bartlow said."I definitely think ithe ability to run) is an asset for me. But I'm a quarterback, and ideally I want to be able to throw the ball."

With 1,130 yards passing and 10 touchdowns to just four interceptions through six games in addition to his sophomore season, it's that passing ability that has Bartlow poised to leave a lasting impression on the Eastern program with his senior season still ahead.

"He's still got a lot of football to play," Camp said.'With the type of kid he is and the competitor that he is, he'll end up being one of the best quarterbacks, if not the best, Eastern has ever had."

BY JAY BOBBIN

JAMES BRQLIN OF "LIFE IN PIECES"oN cBs Your "Life in Pieces" character had an affention-geffing start as the subject of a mock funeral. Was that uncomfortable for you to play?

I had heard about people doing this in the past, trying to pull this otf where everybody gets to speak about your life before you're dead ... but in reading this script, what fascinated me mostly, it was like a blackout show where the punch line is funny. The scene isn't ended when you cut out of it, (it's) almost serialized.

That's what I love about this show. You never quite are satisfied, but you end up wanting more. I only hope we keep up with the qualities that the first (episode) had and we're here a lot longer than 13.

What's the main appeal for you in doing comedy?

I love characters, first of all. As you know, I've layed a few. Every once in a while, they hire me or something decent. Sitcom is not my area of expertise, although I was raised in a tamily that was never serious about anything.

My dad had a 5:00 post-time with these pina coladas with these umbrellas and a big piece of pineapple, and everything was just kind of a cute answer. Everything my dad taught was just silly.
