IS 10 4-2 Rally in Last Period Is Nearly Disastrous for Visitors BROKEN BAT FATAL M on U true and Soivester Star for Gil liam County Tram; Game Scoreless to Seventh A broken bat may have been the cause of Heppner's defeat at the hands of Arlington on Gentry field Sunday. It was a no-score game up to the seventh inning when Arling ton run in 4 counters. It looked then like a shut out for Ileppner till the last of the ninth, when the locals started a batting rally which resulted In two tallies before the broken bat incident brought the game to an end. "Speck" Aiken started the rally with a safe bingle for two bags, and crossed home plate on a pretty drive by "Chappy" King, the next man up. King made third in the melee that followed, and a hit by Van Marter brought him home. Anderson waa un able to locate the ball, making two down. Ward picked a nice single that landed Van Marter on htird and Paul Aiken came to bat. Paul had his bat ting eye with him and hit the pill a lick that should have sent It out of the lot, but Fate decreed against the locals when his bat broke, making a nice little pop fly to right field. What might have happened with Van on his way home from third and Ward on second if the bat hadn't giv en way, la left for Heppner fani to surmise. As It was Arlington went home with the bacon to the tune of 4-2. The pitching of "Toots" Montague was an outstanding feature of the game. He had a no-hit record to his credit till the last of the ninth, and it is little wonder that he weakened when once he was found. B rough ton, Heppner's lanky twirler, had an off day, as he was unable to put the dope on the ball that has characterized his pitching in previous games. The receiving work of King did much to ward holding the local team together. "Buster" Soivester, short-stop for the victors, was a thorn In Hepp ner's side, as they were unable to find a safe place for the ball any place in his part of the daimond. He field ed several balls that were probably good for hits in most any league. Con ley, his running mate on sec ond, likewise played a pretty field ing game. The locals consider it no disgrace to be downed by the brand of ball dinplayd by Arlington Sunday, and are only awaiting their chance to re deem themselves.

Home Institution Is Making Fine Ice Cream As a usual thing we all think that what is produced away from home is superior in quality to that of the same article produced by the local factory. During the past several sea sons, the Morrow County Creamery has been manufacturing ice cream, and each seaRon Manager Cox has im proved the quality and increased the quantity of his product until now he is taxing the capacity of his plant to meet demands. The best thing about it is the ice cream now being put out by the creamery company is not excelled by any product on the Heppner market, and Mr. Cox Is to be congratulated for the excellence of the article he is manufacturing, and is deserving of the fine trade he enjoys.

A Junior - Senior Banquet, First Event, Is To morrow Evening 16 TO GET DIPLOMAS Baccalaureate, Class Play, Class Pic nic and Commencement Round Out Four Years of Toil Closing events of Heppner high school for the year begins with the Junior-Senior banquet at Hotel Hepp ner tomorrow evening. Baccalaur eate sermon will be at the Christian church Sunday evening, delivered by Rev. W. O. Livingstone, and the fol lowing week will be filled with ex aminations, class play, class picnic and commencement. The class of sixteen to be grad uated from the high school Friday evening has a busy time ahead of them for a full week, when comes a short relapse to regain energy with which to attack further problems in the making of a career. When they gather round the festive board with the Juniors tomorrow evening they will forget all strife and dissention between the two classes for three years and bequeath to their succes sors all the rights of Seniorship for the coming year. Then donning their best demeanor and handsomest togs they will file down the Christian church aisle Sun day evening and take their places in the front pews before Rev. W. O. Livingstone to receive God's benedic tion for having progressed thus far in the struggle for supremacy with a prayer to help them to attain much higher stations. But, even at grad uation time, all is not glory, for on Tuesday and Wednesday this same sixteen must knit their brows and ir ritate the gray matter over final ex aminations. For a moment's diver sion, however, they will put on their stage faces and amuse the public for a couple of hours Tuesday evening with the class play. "And Home Came Ted" is the ve hicle with which the class is to make itself famous in high school theatri cals at the Star theater Tuesday night. The play is a comedy of mys tery in three acts, and promises to be a rare treat for those who may see fit to desert family firesides for the show house when it is presented. After the play and another day of exams have been safely passed the class will resort to a day of recrea tion Thursday, when the class picnic will be held, to recuperate to the fullest possible extent for the big gest ordeal of all the graduating exercises on Friday evening. At the graduating ceremonies in the high school auditorium the pub lic will be accorded a musical treat, as Mrs. Bernice Dafoe Hopper, di rector, has prepared several beauti ful selections.
