Game Is Featured by Shooting of
Linn.
Last Friday our boys went to lone
to play the lone high school team.
The game started with a spectacular
district met in Pendleton on Wed
nesday, February 22, to decide on a
tournament date.
Pendleton, Athena and Heppner
thus far had lost no games and it
was decided that these three teams
would play at Pendleton on March
10 and II. If, however, any of these
teams lost one game between now
basket from the tip-off by Linn of ,and tnat datCi a)1 teams who had )ost
lone, lone showed herself to be
much stronger than she was in the
other game and the first quarter end
ed 8 to 5 in lone's favor. The sec
ond quarter started with Heppner's
team hitting their stride and bringing
the score at the end of the first
half to 10 to 11 in Heppner's favor.
The score in the third quarter see
sawed back and forth with neither
team having an advantage and the
quarter ended with a score of 19 all.
After about four minutes of play in
the last quarter lone secured a lead
and started passing the ball in Hepp
ner's end of the court. Heppner
was unable to effectually break up
their passing and the game ended
23 to 26 in lone's favor. Linn, for
ward, secured almost two-thirds of
lone's points and made a good many
brilliant shots from the floor in the
first half. The rest of lone's team
passed well and their teamwork, and
Linn's individual playing were the
causes of Heppner's defeat. Doh
erty was high point man for Hepp
ner and was well backed by the rest
of the team. The lineups were:

Linn F Doherty

Heppner Girls Win Two Games.
The Heppner basketball girls in
vaded lone's territory last Friday
and came home with two victories.
The first one was the result of a for
feit by lone. They wanted to play
an ineligible girl, and rather than put
in a substitute they forfeited the
game, making the score 2 to 1 in
Heppner's favor.
The same two teams then played
as town teams. It was a very fast
and clean game, with the score end
ing 15 to 14 in Heppner's favor.
Arlene Balsiger made the first
two baskets for lone, but after that
Heppner pepped up and lone was
unable to get more than four points
ahead. The first score for Heppner
was a free throw. At the end of the
first half the score was 10 to 8 in
lone's favor.
There were three minutes left in
the last half to play. The score was
14 to 10 in favor of lone. Every
girl in each team was playing her
best when Elaine Sigsbee, for Hepp
ner, threw a basket. Still Heppner
needed two more points to make the
game a tie, and only one minute was
left to play. Just before the whistle
blew Sigsbee made another basket
find the score was 14 to 14. The
teams then rested five minutes be
fore playing the five minutes that
had been agreed on to play off the
tie. Each team went on the floor
determined to win, and as a result
neither team made a basket until
fifty seconds before time for the
whistle to blow. It was Elaine Sigs
bee aeain who came to our rescue by
throwing a basket making the final
score 14 to 15.
The team work on both sides was
excellent. The star for Heppner was
Nellie Flynn who played a wonderful
came as guard. The two centers ai
so plaved a good game. The lineups
were:
Heppner lone
Sigsbee F Balsiger
Ritchie r bngleman
Doherty C Devin
Hall y S(J rarrens
Flynn G Retfmann
James G .-. Musgrave
Substitutions: Turner tor james,
Independents Win.
The Independent team played the
lone American Legion team last Sat
urday. The game was a little slow
at first but speeded up in the second
half. The game was very much in
favor of the Independent team be
cause two of the lone stars were un
able to come. The final score was
43 to 8 in favor of the Independent
team. The lineups were:

Basketball, Lexington, Friday
March 3.
Return eamcs of basketball will
be played in Leach's hall at Lexing'
ton Friday night.
Both schools have promised
much faster game, but. nevertheless,
we will do our best to bring home
another victory.
The road between here and Lex
ington is in a fair condition and we
would like to have the town folk
show their loyalty by attending and
cheering for our boys and girls. Let :
not deprive thlm of the chance of
going to Salem.
Basketball Tournament Pendleton,
March 10-11.
The committee appointed to decide
only one game would be eligible
All expenses will be paid by Pen
dleton, and any excess funds are to
be divided equally between all con
testants. Prof. Borleske, coach of
Whitman college, Walla Walla, will
rtferee the games.
Since Heppner lost the game with
lone last Friday evening, all teams
who have lost only one game are
now eligible.
Student reading grades from re
port card: "C, D, B-, B, and B in
deportment. Well, with nothing
worse than a C in science, and a

take my card home and have it sign
ed up."
The civics eleven class are in the
midst of a study of the United States
courts and some of the students are
beginning to think they'll never get
cut unless the courts are abolished.
A new system Of work has been
established in the domestic science
department by Miss Norris, fhe in
structor. The girls are given certain
positions each week, such as man
ager, assistant manager, general
manager, first and second cooks, pas
try cooks, first and second waitress,
nd girls in charge of the lunch
room. With every position are a
number of specified duties which
each girl is held responsible for. In
this way the work is accomplished in
an orderly manner and each girl
has training in supervising the work.
The system of ventilation and heat-
ng which has been put in pactice for
several weeks seems to have been
pretty successful. The epidemic of
colds seems to have subsided as most
f the rooms for the month ending
February 24 have an average attend
ance of over ninety-five per cent.
Claude Sigsbee left school Mon
day to go to work through shearing.

Operetta practice is progressing
rapidly. Some changes have beea
made in the cast, and the present one
is working hard. From what we hear
of it we feel sure that it is going to
be the best ever put on in Heppner.
At the program given under the
auspices of the Patron-Teachers as
sociation last Tuesday evening, Miss
Hull, who is representing the Ellison
White Lyceum circuit, addressed the
audience for about ten minutes. The
audience was requested to sign up
for the number of tickets they were
intending to purchase for the lyceum
for the coming year. This gave the
members of the Patron-Teachers as
sociation some idea of what the town
people thought of the lyceum work.
At the Patron-Teachers association
meeting which was held immediately
following the program it was decided
no to have the lyceum course.
Since the recent adoption of a new
law in H. H. S., the students' heads
are seen frantically looking in every
diiection before they ask permission
to speak. Study hall has been much
quieter since then, but it is rather
hard to tell when the other fellow is
through.
The biology class informed us that
they had completed their long themes
at last. The class was divided into
groups of three persons, each group
writing a paper of 6000 words on
some biological subject.
