BOOSTER CLUB SKIT.
Small pasteboard megaphones in
high school colors were given to each
of the faculty and to each high school
student Thursday afternoon, Novem
ber 10. A "pep" meeting was held
to stir up some enthusiasm among
the students before the Ione-Hepp-ner
game, played Nor. 11. Yells led
by Hazel McDaid and Jack Casteel
were staged to demonstrate the use
of the megaphones and to show ap
preciation to the Booster club. The
high school song was sung and then
Marvin GammeU gave a very dram
atic talk on football. He brought
out the fact that every loyal student
in high school should be out to the
game the following day. A reading
on football was read by Velton Owen.
The most alluring and hilarious num
ber was the "joks," read hy Janie
Alstott. Louise Langdon and Onez
Parker sang "Ain't She Sweet" rnd
"I'm Going to Meet My Sweetie Now"
which proved a great hit with the
students. Mary and Patricia Mora
han sang "Sailin' On" and "At Sun
down." Hazel McDaid closed the
meeting with an urgent invitation
to attend the rally at 7 o'clock that
evening.

high school students met at the post

town to advertise the lone vs. Hepp
ner game. After an hour's noise
down town, they enjoyed a bonfire
on the hill above the school house.
A large H. H. S. was burned to sig
nify Heppner High school. A short
program was held which consisted
of a solo by Mr. Johnson entitled

Considering Its
High Resale Value
Tfo PONTIAC SIX
dually CoflsYouLess
To Own and Drive
Even if the Pontiac Six did not command the high
resale prices that it does, it would still enjoy the reputa
tion of being a " wonderful buy "... for it is the only car
combining the advantages of superior six-cylinder per
formance and the luxuries of a Fisher body at a price of
$745 ... But with a high resale price which reduces the
net cost of ownership, a Pontiac Six is actually more eco
nomical to own and drive . . . This is direct result of
definite planning to design a low-price six that would
win approval on the sound principles of genuine, long
lived, Inexpensive owner satisfaction . . . That is why
used car buyers are willing to pay more for the Pontiac
Six when the original owner is ready to replace it . . .
Come in get a ride and let us give you the facts.

their various trips for home coming.
Great excitement reigned in school
on Wednesday of last week. Mil
dred Green's home was reported to be
burned to the ground with all tha
furnishings including Uncle Joshua's
mustache cup going up in smoke. Ru
mors ran rife as to the cause of the
blaze. Every story that .one could
imagine was told concerning the dis
aster, with the exception that Mil
dred, herself, screamed in pain from
the second story and writhing in
agony perished in the flames. Un
deserved sympathy poured out on the
supposedly unfortunate family, until
it was learned that Mildred had near
ly quenched the fire with a cup of
water.

minder to the lucky one, into whose
possession it will justly go.
