PROSPECTS BRIGHT
Squad of 25 Working Hard
For Umatilla Game
Saturday.
RALLY FRIDAY NIGHT
I'ep Exhibition! to Arouse City and
Instill Fighters; Coach Ex- "
presses Appreciation.
With a squad of 25 pigskin hooters
turning out nightly Coach Johnson is
optimistic as the first league game
with Umatilla on Saturday afternoon
nears. Tuesday night the team made
a good showing against a town bunch,
composed mostly of former high
school stars, and with intensive work
outs and training the remainder of
this week should offer formidable re
sistance against attacks of the in
vaders.
Though the spirit of the team Is
of the best, the squad as a '.vhole is
green, mighty green, declared the
coach. There is possibility of devel
oping the raw material into a cham
pionship aggregation, however. This
eek captain will be elected and
Friday night the "old school spirit"
will be let out of the bag for fair at
a big pep rally and bonfire at Rodeo
held. Townspeople are 'especially
urged to take in the speeches and
other proceedings at the field. Though
the lineup for Saturday's game hasn't
been given out, the coach has a good
word for many of the players. Among
those who have a good chance of mnk
ir.g their debut Suturday are the fol
lowing: "Bill" Bucknum, of last year's crew,
veteran at fullback, versatile, shifty,
and a good all-round man.
Ones Parker, the stonewall of last
vear's Wasco game, is at right end.
Merle Becket at tackle or back
field looks mighty good.
Paul Hisler at quarter barks out
the signals.
Marvin Gammell, half back candi
date, is showing up well.
Steve Thompson seems to be a good
running mate for Bccket at tackle.
Dclvin Adkins at left guard and
Dick Wightman at right guard are
both showing up well, with some rag
ged spots in their playing technique
which will be removed.
Bobby Turner, one of last year's
"stand-bys," is fighting hard for a
CBition at left end.
Karl Redding has just reported and
with experience should prove okeh.
Harold Krwin is expected out soon.
Iue to ineligibility Erwin didn't play
Inst season but showed the proper
spirit by being on hand and encourag
ing the team both at home and on
trips.
Gerald Slocum is among those call
ing for suits. If he can play like he
can fight he should prove a whirlwind.
Red Bramer, although only a soph,
rhows promise of being one of the
most versatile players on the team.
At halfback he's a whirlwind and at
tackle he's a thunderbolt.
C. Hayes recently reported and is
already worrying some of the older
men for a place.
Terril Bcnge has been laid up late
ly, but has much promise. As a line
man ho should prove dangerous with
more practice.
Among the freshmen Howard Evans
at center and Rod Thompson at end
nnd quarter show much promise. Oth
er freshmen include: Fletcher Walk
er, Homer Hayes, Jim Monahan,
Duane Brown, Louis LeTrace, Clair
Cox. These boys are learning the
fundamentals as fast as Coach John
son can pound it into them and ev
eryone is showing a splendid spirit.
Kenneth Oviatt, junior, is showing
promise of a field general, and may
hold down a quarterback's berth some
day. ,
Jack Castcel, being unable to par
ticipate in the actual playing, is as
sisting the team in a big way by tak
ing care of the occasional sore spots.
Jack has the Heppner spirit all right.
The coach, new at Heppner this
season, is pleased with the boys.
They have willingly pledged to sup
port the team in a sportsmanlike
manner, and to train diligently for
the school's football interests.
The team's success of last year
brought forth spontaneous apprecia
tion from the business men and citi
zens of the city. This year with the
interest and enthusiasm displayed by
the boys, they will undoubtedly re
ceive hearty cooperation from the
same source.
LITTLE GIRL CALLED BY DEATH.
After suffering for a period of six
weeks with tuberculosis of the brain,
Uoris Berdina, little daughter of Mr.
i.nd Mrs. Herman Young of Pine City,

ATHLETIC LEAGUE
IS REORGANIZED
Percentage Basil Will be Used In De
ciding Championships; football
Schedules Are Arranged.
The Upper Columbia High School
Athletic league was virtually reor
ganized recenty at a meeting of its
members in Arington. Represntatives
from Heppner, Lexington, lone, Hard-
man, Arlington, Fossil and Golden-
dale, Wash., were present. After dis
cussing the advisability of continuing
the league at all, some members being
dubious about its usefulness, Benti
nient finally culminated in the schools
represented getting closer together
than ever before and a most success
ful season is expected, said Jas. M
Burgess, representing Heppner.
It was decided to determine cham
pionships in the three divisions of
athletics promoted by the association
on a percentage basis thus eliminat
ing long and expensive trips between
distant schools which were necessary
under the old system that each school
might be enabled to play every other
school. Football, basketball and base
ball are the sports in control of the
league. Cleaner athletics especially
lb the aim of league rules for the
year.
Schedules for all sports were ar
ranged, Heppner being admitted to
basketball on provision that a suit
able court is provided on which to
play. Following is Hcppner's foot
ball league schedule:
Oct. 9 Umatilla at Heppner.
Oct. 16 Heppner at Condon.
Oct. 30 Heppner at lone.
Nov 11 Lexington at Heppner.
Lexington Girl Wins
First Prize on Wheat
Miss Eva Wilcox, farmer girl of
Lexington, is still winning honors, as
evidenced by this letter received from
J. E. Calavan, industrial field worker
of-the Department of Education at
Salem, under date of October 4:
"Miss Eva Wilcox,
Lexington, Oregon.
My dear Miss Wilcox:
We received your wheat exhibit in
due time to exhibit it. It Jon first
place as usual, and we have forward
ed it today to your address.
Congratulations to Oregon's farm
er girl."
Miss Wilcox won first prize on her
exhibit at the State Fair last year
and this gave her a trip to 0. A. C.
summer school last summer.
While club work has somewhat lag
ged in Morrow county of late years,
we are informed by Mrs. Walker,
county superintendent, that the in
terest is again rising. She took with
her six of the pupils of Morrow coun
ty schools interested in club work
this year on her trip to the State
Fair last week, and states that she is
not the least disappointed in the
showing made.
WALKING.
From Sate Board of Health.
In order that the human body may
be in perfect health as to its circu
lation, digestion, nervous system and
muscular system, exercise is absolute
ly necessary. More ills are caused
by disordered activity in organs as
a result of errors in diet, rest, and
exercise than are caused by actual
disease processes. The various phy
siological processes of the body de
pend for their proper performance on
activity. The lungs will not function
properly if the chest is not well ex
panded. Indigestion will result if
there is an inactivity in the stomach
and intestines. The heort structure
will fail in its efficiency if an excess
of fat accumulates in nnd around its
muscular walls, or increases its work
by a disproportionate deposit of fat
through the body penerally. The
nervous system is prone to certain
functional disorders such as irrita
bility, insomnia, etc., resulting from
tne prolonged irritation by poison
created by the body's inactivity.
some form of exercise is necessarv
to keep the body in perfect health.
The most universal and beneficial x
ercise is walking, for the amount, the
rate, and the type, are each easily
regulated to the particular needs of
the individual. Walking is a pleasant
form of exercise, easily obtainable,
and meanwhile an abundance of fresh
air and sunlight are possible. Almost
two-thirds of the muscles of the bodv
are involved in walking; this exer
cises the larger portion of the body
muscles. The nervous Bystem, the
circulatory, the digestive aparatus,
are all stimulated by walking.
10 get the greatest benefits from
walking, one must have in mind prop
er attire. Properly fitted 'shoes are
essntlal; they should not be too wide
and they should be long enough so
that the top of the toes does not
touch the ends of the shoes, and yet
at the same time big enough to allow
tne wearing of wool hose. In sum
mer or winter, the use of wool' as a
covering for the feet makes for corn-
tort in walking. The rest of th
clothing will be indicated by the sen-
son, tnough wool of different weight
is to be preferred. Walk with the
weight carried on the outer side of
the feet, placing the feet on tho
ground parallel to each other. The
chest should be carried well forward
r.nd the arms should swing easily at
ine siucs, i ne Btruie and rhythm are
important because unless there Is a
free swinging of the arms which is
accompanied by a slight turning of
tne Dociy witn eoch stop, a very val
uable exercise of the body becomes
a loss. Walking in the manner de
scribed exorcises practically everv
muscles in the body, keeps you physic
ally lit, ana gives you an added zest
and enjoyment in the day's work.
M
Is Found by Investigators
After Being Missed
For a Week.
RENOWNED AS POET
Was Long Conspicuous Figure; Brick
Mason and Nightwatchman
Main Occupations.
Anson Hooker Currier, better known
as "The Baron," was found dead at
his home in this city on Friday morn-
iiig. A conspicuous figure on the
streets of Heppner for many years,
and self-appointed night watchman
for Heppner business men for the
last four or five years, the baron's
presence was missed for several days
last week arousing considerable ap
prehension as to his whereabouts.
On Friday morning Marshal Devin
thought it time to start an investi
gation, and in company with S. E.
Notson, district attorney, went to Mr.
Currier s nome.
Finding the door locked the inves
tigators at first thought the baron
had left the city. However, it came
to Mr. Devin's mind that on previous
occasions when Mr. Currier had left
for a short time he had locked the
outer door with a padlock, which they
did not find to be present on this
occasion. Seeing the possibility that
something serious might have hap
pened to the elderly man, who had
been in rather poor health for some
weeks previous, they forced an en
trance. Inside they found themselves
in a small room, bearing no evidence
of the occupant. They next tried
the one inside door leading to the
other room of the apartment and
found it locked with a bolt on the op
posite side. Being certain that Mr.
Currier was inside they forced this
door also. The blinds were down and
their first attention being drawn to
the bed, which was undisturbed, they
thought they had made a mistake.
Mr. Devin, however, produced a flash
light whose rays revealed the sought
man in a heap near a stove in the
corner, his very position leaving no
doubt as to his being dead.
Further investigation revealed that
the baron had not been seen since
the previous Saturday, and from his
condition it was judged he had died
that evening. He had apparently re
turned home with some groceries
that were in a box on the floor nearby
und had started to build a fire before
preparing his evening meal. It was
when he stooped over to pick up some
wood that he keeled over unconscious
and died in that position. There be
ing no signs of violence it was plain
ly evident he had met a natural death.
Anson Hooker Currier, as near as
can be determined, came to Heppner
shortly after the Heppner flood in
1903. He was a native of Boston and
a brick mason by trade. Though his
exact age was not learned it is be
lieved he was in the neighborhood of
70 years old at the time of his death.
ror the past fifteen years he was a
conspicuous figure on the streets of
Heppner and was widely known. He
worked at times at his chosen trade,
but was probably better known for
his poetic genius which showed itself
at memorable past occasions, especial
ly at the passing of the saloons, the
baron in the old days being a devoted
follower of John Barleycorn. Short-

finding little to do at his trade,
asked Heppner merchants to give him
a job as nightwatchman for a nominal
sum. This they did, giving him his
main source of livlihood since. Tho
Mr. Currier can not be given the
credit for making a financial success,

FRESHMEN WIN
FIELD DAY MIX
Lower Classmen Take Most Points
in Events at Rodeo Field Last
Friday Afternoon.
A new tradition of Heppner High
school, displacing the old pole fight
was instituted on Rodeo Field last
Friday, when the lower classmen
tangled in a mix that contained
plenty of pep, action, good sports
manship and excitement for all. From
the formation of the parade to the
last event there was not a dull mo
ment in the entire show, nor was any
Injury sustained by any of the mix
lis, except for a few torn shirts and
some muddy clothes.
The entire contest was decided on
a basis of points, the class annexing
the most points being declared win
ner. The freshmen went at it hot
rd heavy, since winning for them
meant the privilege of hanging their
pennant on the wall of the high
p.thool assembly room. The sopho
mores were just as determined that a
little green pennant about a foot
long Bhould represent the freshmen.
The freshmen were awarded 100
points on the parade as they made
the most noise and treated the spec
tators to the most amusing sights.
In the lug oi war which followed
i either side was declared victor, due
to a misunderstanding of the rule's by
narts of both sides. In view of this
fact each team was awarded 60 points.
The sophomores won the bag rush
by ten points. The freshmen girU
helped win the pennant by capturing
the relay race from the sophomore
girls quite decisively. This netted
he frosh 2B0 points. The push war
was taken by the sophs for 100 points.
ine climax of the contest was the
marking of the gridiron. This event
wnich ordinarily occupies about half
i a ay s time on tne part of some
,cry unwilling undreclassmen was ac
complished in the record-breaking
time of 8 minutes, by the two teams
working from opposite ends of the
field. The freshmen easily won this,
giving them an additional 750 points
ana a decisive victory.
Sinse the field day was ao success
ful in the minds of students, faculty
and townspople who attended, there
no doubt that the new tradition
v. ill be perpetuated.
Burgess Made Director
Umatilla Debate League
Jas. M. Burgess, superintendent of
the Heppner schools, has been ap
pointed director of the Umatilla Dis
trict Debating league. This district
comprises schools of Morrow, Uma
tilla and Gilliam counties. Mr. Bur
gess said debating is to be made a
major activity in the district this
year, preparations being made for
activities in all Morrow county
schools.
In 1922 Heppner High school was
represented in the state high school
debating conference held at the Uni
versity of Oregon in Eugene, the re
sult of a successful year in this ac
tivity. Mr. Burgess hopes to regain
the former status of debating in this
district, believing it to be one of the
most worthwhile activities from the
standpoint of educational advance
ment that a student can take part in.
At a later date a schedule for Inter-
school debate will probably be ar
ranged to decide the district cham
pions who will be entitled to take part
n tne state debating conference in
the spring.
Culling Sheep Flocks
Based on Two Factors
By H. A. LINDGREN.
Livestock Extension Specialist. O.A.C.
Flock management of Oregon sheep
of great importance to returns
from the business. To keen the flock
up to improved standards culling is
essential, and hinges on two main
considerations the ewe's ability to
produce a good lamb, and fleece pro
duction.
A good lamb is of good mutton con
formation with good marketable
weight at weaning time. This means
that she is as blocky as possible ac
cording to the breed. She has a good
strong straight back, a wcU-filled
d leg of mutton, and a wel-filled
brisket, deep chest and plenty of
heart girth. In addition she carries
a sound udder and is capable of pro
ducing plenty of milk for the lamb.
The best time to judge her ability
perform as a lnmb producer is
ust before the lamb is weaned. At
hat time all the ewes that do not
crme up to sandard are marked so
they can be picked out later.
The second point, that of fleece pro
duction, can best be determined at the
time of shearing. A certain standard
of fleece weight is determined for the
flocks. This of course is different
for different classes or breeds. The
pood fine wool ewe is able to produce
t.t least 10 pounds of wool in addition
o raising a good lamb. The medium
wool ewe produces at least 8 pounds
and the long wool 12 pounds. This is
the aim of the flockmaster. Age, feed,
and climatic conditions influence the
amount of wool produced in a big
way and that is considered in judg
ing a ewe's wool-producing ability.
BOOSTER CU B STARTED.
H. R. Johnson, high school princi
pal, is perfecting organization of a
students' booster club. This club is
to be a voluntary organization, the
purpose of which is to fostor school
spirit of the proper kind. It is ex
pected organization of the club wi',1
be perfected in a few days.

Are You Resilient?
Wanted A Canal.
Jazz or Religion?
Men become accustomed to every
thing, especially when It happens at
a distance in space and time. We
talk now calmy of 20,000,000 lives
destroyed by the great war, and that
number is no exaggeration. News of
hundreds killed in Florida moves us
more deeply than did news that tens
of thousands had been wiped out in
a single battle.
Man dreads especially the stroke of
nature's power, realizing his helpless
ness before it. At any moment our
great sea coast cities might be swept
out of existence by a tidal wave. And
Man can no more prepare against it
than the ant can prepare his tiny city
against the gardener's watering pot.
Men have learned to take disaster
philosophically, and to find relief
in effort.
It was not so in other days. When
"the great earthquake of Lisbon"
wiped out thousands of Uvea and
destroyed a city, many lost their
faith in God and in Eternal Justice,
as others lost their lives and prop
erty. The earthquake and dreadful fire
came on a holy day, when the
churches were packed with worship
pers. "
Rofos of churches and cathedrals
fell in, crushing great numbers, even
as they knelt, imploring Divine mercy.
The day has passed when a natural
disaster could be made a convincing
argument for shallow atheism. Men
have lost much of their superstition,
without losing their faith in eternal
wisdom and Justice.
We know that nature's laws work
eternally and evenly, and it is for
man to rely on his intelligence and
science, not on protecting miracles.
Wonderful is resiliency in man or
material. -If yon bounce up after you -are
squeezed down, nothing can keep
you down. If you stay flat when you
are squeezed flat, you don't go far.
Scientists are searching vainly for
synthetic rubber. Its discovery would
be worth billions to the world. Syn
thetic elasticity for the human mind
and courage would be even more val
uable. By the way, if any young man can
find a way to "reverse the vulcanizing
process of rubber," making old rub
ber as good as new rubber, as old
iron is made good as new, that young
man will realize the ambitions of
millions, and get enough cash to make
Paris and Palm Beach take notice.
Congressman Holt of Illinois wants
a canal from Lake Michigan to the
Gulf of Mexico, and the people of the
united states ought to have it. Con
gressmen from Texas, Louisiana, Flor-
ma, every state in the union, should
work for it.
A canal connecting Lake Michigan
and the Mississippi would establish
transportation by water ways between
nouston, bt. Louis, Kansas Citv. Chi
cago, Omaha, all the great lake cities.
And the thing could be done with
few of the scores of millions that
we are so cheerfully sending to Eu
rope now, in private loans, to build
up THEIR industries, canals and oth
er enterprises.
Some day this nation will realize
that it pays to develop your OWN
country.

PICTURE WAS FAILURE.
The Van Winkle studio took a pic
ture of the Bible school at the
Christian church last Sunday morn
ing. The negative was splendid, but
through a mistake it was not proper
ly developed, so the picture failed.
This was a disappointment to many,
and to the photographers as well.
However, on the coming Sunday morn
ing another attempt will be made,
and it is promised by the picture pco
that this will not be a failure. There
was a fine attendance on Sunday last;
let all these be present for next Sun
day, and just as many more, and we
will have the picture taken again.
