LOCAL FOOT BALLISTS DEFEAT LEXINGTON Using rough tactics in the open ing of the first quarter, but later playing clean football, the much flaunted champions from Lexing ton went down to a 6 to 0 defeat before the fierce onslaughts of the dashing Heppner backfield on the depot grounds, last Sunday. The game was played in the old style, mass plays and straight line bucks, with no successful forward passing with its open playing. The game was Heppner s from the first kick-off, for at no time during the game was the local's goal in any serious danger of being crossed by their opponents. The home team consisted of an all-star line-up. but the mdivid ual shinning lights were Walter Yeager, Hiatt, Maddock, Swag- gart and Ayers. Hiatt's plung ing was the feature of the game. Lexington cannot boast of any individual stars, but Dinges Rudd and Pointer stood out head and shoulders above their team mates. Since Lexington defeated lone, Heppner is now entitled to the football championship of Morrow county. O.A.G. GADET BAND WILL VISIT HEPPNER Mr. Harry S. Walters, Drum Major and manager of the Ore gon Agricultural Colletre Cadet Band, visited Heppner Monday evening and made arrangements for the appearance of his band here on the evening of December 30. It is with much pleasure that we announce the appearance of this band in Heppner, for when it is understood by our people that this is one of the finest ama teur organizations in the West, carrying a complement of thirty five pieces, the fact that they are willing to cover additional mile age to make Heppner a visit will be readily appreciated. There is another side to the story, however, and it is only fair to the people of Heppner to com pliment them at this time. In making their first annual tour in 1912, the 0. A. C. Glee club vis ited Heppner. This was their last engagement on the road. Here they were accorded the heartiest welcome and the great est success financially on the en tire trip. The same may be said of the University club on some of its visits. This fact has taken a firm hold on the college people and they never plan an Eastern Oregon tour without giving Heppner due consideration. And they can well afford to for this is the big gest show going town in Oregon for its size. In the case of the band, sever al of Captain Beard's former "stars" were Heppner boys, and to that extent he feels a personal interest in paying the town a visit, but the stronger and really potent factor is the appreciative attitude of the people.

All his fellow hunters are nearly as proud of it as he is, not including that little pang of something which might be defined as "I wish I could have got that goose, high school notes.

HI DEFEAT SOPHS-FRESIES Displaying a great lack of team work, but otherwise holding their opponents down to a close score, the sophomore-freshmen girls went down to defeat before the larger and more experienced junior-senior girls of the Heppner high school, in basket ball at the rink last Saturday night. The score was 9 to 6 for the upper class girls. Each girl starred individually for her team, but Hazel Rankin was the accurate -basket tosser for the winners, while Margaret Crawford made most of the points for the losers. The centers, Van Vactor and Bergstrom were there on the jump. George Case umpired; Helen Ames, refereed; Lucile Culbert son, official timekeeper, and Li lah Clark, official scorekeeper. The game was played strictly under girls' rules and the two teams lined up as follows: SENIORS-JUNIORS Huerhes and Rankin, forwards; E. Aiken and H. Aiken, guards; Allison, side center; Van Vactor, center. . SOPHOMORE-FRESHMEN Thorley and Crawford, for wards; Perry and Groshens, guards; Goulder, side center; Bergstrom center. lone Vs. Cardinals. The basketball season will open in Heppner tomorrow night at the Rink wheii lone and the Cardinal Club of this city will meet in their first struggle. The game will be preceded with a curtain raiser by the girls' teams of the High school. The girls played a good game last Saturday and this next one should be even better. The boys from below have played several games already this season and thereby have a de cided advantage over the local five, since the Cardinals have not really had a good practice game yet, and have not been able to perfect their team work. How ever, they should be able to hold down the Ioneites to a fairly close score, lne uarcnnais win De represented by Hale and Craw ford, forwards; Elder, Hallock, Mahoney and Young, guards; Rogers center. The management expects a arge crowd, for many tickets have already been sold. Mrs. Jack Devore is seriously ill at her home in Heppner. The first Sunday in December is the time of the Elks' Memor ial service. Hon. John B. Coffey of Portland will deliver the ad dress. Mrs. Lillian Conser, formerly of Heppner, but now of Port- and, is chairman of the commit tee on arrangements at the an nual banouet of the Monday Mu sical Club of that city. Her pic ture appeared in the music sec tion of last Sunday's Oregonian. A party consisting of Chas. Vaughn, Gene Noble. Lou ziegler, Will Hughes and Chas. Cox, made an auto trip down to the Jim Carty ranch in the Sand Hollow country last Sunday. They spent the day hunting rabbits. Accord ing to reports they brought back with them, there was not much hunting to it. The rabbits were so plentiful that the boys did'nt have to get out of the machine to shoot them. HJffl ifflER PEOPLE fiKE ROUND, TRIP Ladies Aid of the Federa ted Church Conduct the Tour. Heppner was crowded with tourists last Friday evening. Many globe trotters were making a trip around the world by auto mobile. The special points of in terest visited were Georgia, Bos ton, Alaska, Germany, New York City and Heppner. Cars began leaving the Hepp ner station, which was the Case furniture store, at 5:30 in the evening. They left at regular intervals from that time on until 8 o'clock. It took onlv three minutes for the trip from Hepp ner to Georgia. At this particu lar station things greatly resem bled the sunny South. With the exception of the American trav elers, no white people were in sight. Many negro servants were in evidence and they served watermelon to the visitors. The trip to Georgia was featured by the songs of the picaninnies. The journey from theF. N. Chris- tensen residence to Boston was uneventful. After a fifteen min ute bean eat at Boston, we left the LImer Slocum residence for far-away Alaska. Upon our ar rival in Alaska we were very hungry and the natives gave us some kind of a salad to eat which was made of the native Alaska salmon. It was good and we ate heartily of it We spent some time here admiring the beautiful country with George Case as a guide. We found much of inter est in the trinkets which the na tives made. Basket weaving, little wooden canoes, blankets and furs. Our happy visit in this country was broken into by "the arrival of the boat which was to carry us to Germany. As we left the Case residence, we en tered an automobile which was to make the first trip of its kind across the water to Germany. The water was fine. Arriving in the "fatherland" we were met by enthusiastic "deutchers" and treated to a lunch of cider, "hot dog," and sauerkraut. We re mained in the old country longer PaBticaiair TFrasf e We make a specialty of the best in Coffee.

PHELPS GROCERY COMPANY than we had first intended, and when we did get ready to leave the Patterson residence the boat was late and consequently our arrival in good old New York was delayed to a great extent. We had much trouble in satis fying the customs officials and health officers at Ellis Island, but we were finally allowed to land. After three Quarters of an hour- spent here, we left the Phelps home for Heppner, fully satisfied that the fifty cents we had in vested in 'a round trip ticket had been well spent. Thanks to the Ladies' Aid of the Federated church for affording us the op portunity of seeing foreign lands without going outside of our own city. O. P.
