Covered with the glory of victory the
Heppner faotball team returned home
Saturday night and were met at the
depot by a large and enthusiastic crowd.
Their arrival was heralded by the firing
of anvils, and they were given a grand
reception.
The boys speak highly of their treat
ment at Pendleton. On Thursday, at
2:30 the game began.
Heppner won the toss and took the
kickoff. Pendleton making a cris-croes
gained center field, where Oney downed
thein. They then lined up, and by a
series of line bucks Clarke made a
touch-down in three minutes.
Pendleton then kicked off to Hepp
ner, in which our boys made a good run
before being downed. In- about 15
minutes after the first down Fred Ham
ilton made a touch-down which finished
the first half.
Oney succeeded in kicking both goals,
which made the score stand 12 to 0 iu
Heppner's favor.
Ater a ten minutes rest the referee
called the boys back to the gridiron and
sent them at it again.
In the kick-off Oris Robertson suc
ceeded in making a 35 yard run. By a
series of tandem and straight-line bucks,
with an occasional Carlyle Indian play,
Natter was shoved over the Hue. In
the next and last kick off Matlock made
a fumble, but fell on the ball which
kept it in his possession. By line buck
ing Clarke make the fourth touch-down.
Oney not succeeding in kicking the
goals, made the score stand 22 to 0
when the whittle blew.
In the first half Heppner was on the
verge of making a third touch-down
when time was called. In the second
half F. Hart substituted W. Cowins.
Clarke, BiBbee, Natter, Oney, Robert
son and Hamilton made some good runs
around the ends and in kick-ofls which
gave them big gains in yardage.
Heppner's line proved too Btrong for
Pendleton to get through, and with
Bisbee and Hamilton on the ends they
could make no gains on end plays.
Matlock and Lalande, the big boys,
as tackles held their men and broke up
Pendletons interference with ieat
skill.
Cowins and Thompson as guards held
their men and made some good p'ays.
McAlister, or "Pa Hayseed" the
canter rush, turned his man and also
the full back on the opposing side felt
his grasp once, which caused stars to
fly. He also made sure passes of the
balls, and Robertson, with his grasping
faculty, succeeded in catching them and
with great swiftness passed to the half
backs, Clarke and Natter, who with
Strength and quickness tore up the line
and made runs which gave Heppner
big gains and Pendleton's rooters sighs
and moans.
Full Back Oney, though light, is an
exceptional good player and made sev
eral good plays in runs and also In
tackles.
Oney, Clark and Natter received
slight injuries, but finished the game.
Hart, Stott, Driscoll and Blackmail
were substitutes.
A. Anderson, Pendleton's full back,
and Captain Larone, the quarter back,
played hard and willing and proved
themselves good men.
In the evening a very pleasant ball
was given the boys by the Pendleton
team, and the Heppner delegation re
port them royal entertainers.
When the boys arrived at Arlington
enroute home they were met at the train
by the cornet band and a large crowd
and given a grand reception. Speeches
were made by the mayor of the town
and G. W. Phelps, after which they
were escorted uptown where things
rolled high.
Will Play Walla Walla.
On Monday tbe Heppner football team
received a challenge from the Walla
Walla team to play a game and on
Monday night a meeting was called and
the challenge accepted. Frank Roberts
was elected manager and Arthur Clarke
captain. Manager Roberts phoned
Walla Walla that Heppner accepted the
challenge, and set the time as March 0
on Heppner grounds. The funds for
expenses were raised in a few minutes
among leading business men. This
is expected to be a very hotly-contested
game, as Walla Walla has a well trained
team. But the Heppner men are gritty
and expect to win.
Still More Counterfeiting.
The Secret Service bus unearthed an
other band of counterfeiters and secured
a large quantity ot bogns bills, whiob
are so cleverly executed that tbe aver
