Editorial
It is hoped that the parents and
the public will do all in their power
to help that very worthwhile organ
ization, the school band. Let's ev
eryone boost our band.
The speech given by Mr. Barratt
last Monday brings to mind the sig
nificance of the Norton Winnard
Cup. This cup was given to the
hleh school by the class of 1918 who
did this in memory of the sterling
qualities of their classmate, Norton
Winnard.
Until two years ago, this cup had
been given to the best all around
Junior; but in the last few years
the best senior has had his name
engraved upon the cup.
The qualifications for this cup
are: good grades, good personality,
narticiDation in some sport, al-
thoueht this isn't necessary, and a
good social standing among class
mates. A natural scnoiar win nave
no better chance for this honor
than has the person who must study
at home because we all admire most
a person who gets high grades be
cause he works for them.
The prestige of being a student
whose name is engraved upon the
cup is worth striving for; and not
only is the name of this cup known
in Heppner but In the whole state
of Oregon.
Therefore, a Norton wmnara
Cup student has a better chance In
after life because he is marked for
his high merits; and this is another
thing for which every student
should strive.
penings of Mr. Winnard's college
days. All that had been true of
him in HeDDner high school was
true in his higher education days
He never sought glory and some
times even dodged it. When he
graduated from Harvard he was
recommended for a position wnn
one of the largest hospitals in the
United States in New York, and he
had just entered upon what gave
promise of being a great career
when it was cut short by his un
timely passing.
In his talk Mr. Barratt said ne
honed all the students would re
member this cup and work for it
throughout their high school course
so that there would be a real con
test as to the one who would receive
it in his senior year. The candi
date selected must possess the qua!
ities of leadership, scholarship, and
personality as exemplified by the
person whom the cup commemor
ates.
Pep is Shown.
A pep meeting and rally were held
last Thursday by the student body
for the purpose of arousing school
spirit for the Heppner-Condon foot
ball game held Friday At tne pep
assembly. Mr. Mabee, school coach
introduced the players, and then the
yell leaders led the student body in
a few peppy yells. The rally was
held at 7:30 starting at the post of
fice and yelling and serpentining up
and down Main street.
Gym Flans Made for Year.
Gvm is being started vigorously
this year with the spirited organi
zation of clubs. These clubs: the
Red Devils led by Margaret Nel-
, the Wildcats led by Anabel
Turner, the Shooting stars led by
Delia Ulrich, and the Shamrocks
led by Hazel Beymer, are to com
pete against each other for a ban
ner to be given to the all star team
at the end of the year.
From these teams four managers
have been selected from whom a
supervising manager will be chosen
to help with the schedules and post
ing of games.
Coach Mabee and the four leaders
have drawn up a constitution of
rules which states that there will
be three classes of sports this year.
First, the major group consisting
of soccer, basketball, speedball, and
indoor baseball. Fifteen points will
be awarded each team that wins
one of these games and five points
for entrance. Second, are the minor
sports such as tennis, horse shoes,
dodge ball, and Sigma Delta Psi,
with ten points for winning and
three points for entrance. Third,
there are the all school sports con
sisting of track and such meets
with five point3 for the winning
team.
Later in the winter it will be
impossible to run off two games a
day during the thirty minutes of
gym provided, so it has been decid
ed to schedule and play these games
in the gym of evening3.
Gym is proving to be very bene
ficial as well as enjoyable under the
excellent training Mr. Mabee Is pro
viding.

The eighth grade civics class is
very fortunate in this being an elec
tion year so that they may study
the organization and workings of
political parties and elections from
observation. Later they will hold
an election of their own on sample
ballots to determine their choice for
president.
The class expresses itself thus:
"It is the privilege of every good
citizen to vote; therefore we are all
going to see that our parents are
registered and that they do their
part and vote next November."
A rythm band composed of all
grades played yesterday at the
school. The second grade rythm
band played a special number and

emerged from the chute as one of
the first teachers to go down for
a couple of years.

Heppner Wins First Game.
A green but hard-fighting Hepp
ner high football team defeated the
Condon gridsters Friday afternoon
on Rodeo field 13-6.
Heppner passed, skirted the ends,
and bucked the line for two count
ers the first half. In the third per
iod the Condon line stiffened and
though the ball was constantly in
Condon territory the Heppner boy3
didn't have the punch necessary to
score.
Condon's touchdown came after
their backfleld men had marched
through the center of Heppner's
line for 50 yards.
It was a good first game and
though both teams looked ragged
at times, Heppner being particu
larly careless about off-side, they
showed promise of very good mid
season ball.
The lineup for Heppner was as
follows: : L. G., Ted McMurdo; C
Lyle Cowdrey; R. G., Reese Burk
enbine; R. T., Don Cowdrey; R. E.,
Marvin Morgan; F., Jimmy Fur-
