We are Informed that there remains in the warehouses here, unsold, only about 40,000 pounds of the present season's clip, and this will likely be taken over by the buyers soon. The market has been very good here this season, the average price ranging around 35 cents, with the fleeces cleaner than In other years. Henry Cohn of this city, and Max Gorfkle of Pendleton were among the heaviest buyers, these gentle men taking over the greater por tion of the Morrow county clip. Shearing of sheep In the Hepp ner vicinity is going along rapidly and the season will soon close. Shearers are at the D. O.

Some few bands remain to be sheared in the Butter creek country but these do not aggregate a very large number of sheep. The season has been fine, especially during the past several weeks.

Where the Teams Flay Next Sunday Wasco at Heppner. lone at Umatilla, Arlington at Condon. With four games to play, the Wheatland league standings, remain unchanged by action of directors at Arlington Tuesday night, when they voted to let the games pro tested by Heppner and Umatilla stand as reported. After voting to allow both protests and count the games as "no games," to be played over, the directors rescinded their action to promote harmony In the league, which it is felt has been the most successful of any ever formed in this section. As the result of this action Con don and Wasco are tied at the head of the percentage column with .666 each. Arlington and Umatilla are each a game behind with .500 and Heppner and lone, keeping com pany in the cellar, still have a chance for the pennant with .333. Sunday's game at Heppner holds especial interest as the locals again meet Wasco, the opponents in their contested game. Heppner undoubt edly will make a supreme effort to dislodge Wasco from their top perch with Wasco just as determined to make the locals sorry that they ever instigated a protest Then Heppner fans will have an addi tional treat the following week on June 2 and 3 when Arlington comes for"a two-day series. This arrange ment was made to give the Chautau qua crowds a chance to see some good ball games, though the Sun day game only will count in the league standings. ' The local club is offering no alibis for their ignominious defeat by Condon Sunday. They just natur ally got off on the wrong foot Schroeder feeding the Condon boys some fat ones that they connected with mercilessly, and the heat af fecting many of the fielders, re sulted in considerable laxity in that department Condon plays a return game here in three weeks, and lone comes here to close the league season the week following, giving Heppner aH- the remaining games of the schedule at home. All the directors were present at the Arlington meeting Tuesday. In addition to their action on the pro tested games they voted that all fu ture protests must be made to the umpine-in-chief at the time a dis puted play is made and the game finished under protest, the umpire- inchief to announce this is the case. They also voted that the pres ent officers woujd hold over till the beginning of the season next year to call the' organization meeting. The officers are Dean T. Goodman, Heppner, president; Earl W.

These two clubs with 478 each were nosed out by just three birds by the Klamath Gun club, winners of the cup. Heppner placed the same team in the match that won the first shoot off two years ago, with the excep tion of Chas. Vaughn, replaced by Earl Warner.

With the graduation of a class of 22 pupils, the Heppner public schools closed the work of the year, and yesterday saw most of the fac ulty on their way to their respec tive homes. The graduation ceremonies this year were held In the new auditor ium-gymnasium, and although sim ple were very effective in their pleasing dignity. At exactly 8 o'clock, Miss Mary Beamer began the processional and the class marched in, accompanied by members of the school board, the Rev. B. Stanley Moore, Profes sor Victor Morris, speaker of the evening, and the superintendent of schools. Following the Invocation by Rev. Mr. Moore, Superintendent Burgess introduced Professor Morris to the students of the class and the pa trons of the school. Professor Mor ris, who is a member of the depart ment of economics of the state uni versity, gave a fine, interesting and instructive address to -the class. Taking as his topic "The Great Adventure," he first pointed out the great achievements of mankind In the course of the past centuries, and then held out to the class the ideal of still more achievements that are possible in the future. Although pointing out the value of a higher education to the mem bers of the class, Professor Morris did not urge its members to Indis criminately enter college, but to pick their future with care, and once embarked upon it to stay with it Professor Morris' address should have been of inestimable value to the patrons of the school as well as the students of the class.
