ARLINGTON DEFEATS US.
Heppner high school played its
first basketball game in the Upper
Columbia league on Saturday. The
game was also the first played by
the locals in their new gym, their
opponents being the Arlington high
school.
Both teams were pretty evenly
matched throughout the game and
played a good brand of ball from
start to finish. However, the Ar
lington hoopsters managed to sink
a couple of long shots during the
last period which made the score
15 to 13 in their favor. In the first
period the Arlington boys were able
to run up a count of nine, while
the Heppnerites were only able to
register five. The second period
was somewhat different, however,
the locals coming back strong and
at the sound of the whistle had run
up eight points to Arlington's six.
The whistle probably saved Ar
lington from tying the score. Hisler
led the Heppner scorers with seven
points while Van Noster and Bow
man were high for the visitors,
each registering six. Substitutions
were: Heppner, Gontry for Parker,
Thomson for Farley, Farley for
Thomson. Arlington, D. Van Win
kle for J. McClard. The lineup was
as follows:
Heppner Arlington
Farley f Van Nostern
Robertson f Bowman
Hisler c W. McClard
Thotopson g Williams
Parker g J. McClard
Wertz of lone was referee.
Next Saturday a double header
with Condon will be played on the
home floor.
LIBRARY MOVED.
The library of the Heppner high
school was moved during the
Christmas holidays to its new loca
tion in the gymnasium building,
The library consists of approxim
ately 1500 volumes and new books
are arriving from time to time. It
includes complete reference data on
all subjects of high school interest
and houses a complete set of gov
ernmental documents, consisting of
congressional records, blue books
from each state in the union that
prints such a book, and various
other documents containing valu
able material for school students.
An up-to-date reading table is
maintained, upon which is kept the
latest and best literary, historical
and scientific magazines. A bind
ing machine is used to rebind the
old books and magazines, and by
reason of this rebinding of the old
books and magazines the school is
saved a great deal of money, as
otherwise they would have to pur
chase new ones to take their place
The rebinding work is done at a
nominal cost.
Miss Ruth Furlong, graduate of
the high school last year, will nan
die the library each day from 8:45
a. m. until 4 p. m., with the excep
tion of 45 minutes when she will
take dictation work from Superin-
tendent Burgess. Mr. Burgess
states that the students will be able
to get books at any time they like
but if there is a tendency to abuse
this privilege, rules will be made
to govern the getting of books. The
former library room in the main
building will be used as a recitation
room.
PHYSICAL TRAINING.
High school physical training has
been under contemplation for some
time and it is now definitely decid
ed that the classes will commence
in earnest at the beginning of the
next semester.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF A
GREAT ACHIEVEMENT
TWO years ago Dodge Brothers embarked upon a pro
gram designed to place it and its Dealer Organization
in a position on January 1, 1928, second to none in the
industry.
The astonishing results of this great achievement are now
known to the world.
It is doubtful if industrial annals can cite, over a similar
period, an achievement so outstanding.
A smart, swift, low-priced and Immensely popular qual
ity Four has replaced its famous predecessor.
The Senior Six, outstanding in performance, quality and
luxurious appointment, has been created. -
Graham Brothers Trucks and Motor Coaches (formerly
exclusively Fours) have been supplemented by sixes. Fifty
new types have been added. The capacities are broadened
to range from one-half ton to two-tcm, all resulting in
the most complete and capable line of work cars known,
and with prices ranging from $670 to $4290.
Then Thursday came The Victory a Six for $1049 and
up the most spectacular engineering achievement of the
decade.
These accomplishments, one following the other in steady
progression, nave now provided Dodge Brothers Dealers
throughout the world with the most diversified and com
. prehensive line of passenger and commercial vehicles
ever manufactured and sold by a single organization.
For every need and purse there is now a Dodge Brothers
vehicle built dependably and in full recognition of the
progressive ideals of today and tomorrow.
