GETS BIG HEARING
Local Talent Entertain
' ment Gives Impetus to
Book Circulation.
HILARITY IN SKITS
Many Organisations Provide Talent
for Variety Program; Music
and "Drammer" Feature. ,
A capacity audience greeted the
annual library benefit Stune Nite at
the school gym-auditorium last Fri
day evening, and gave new Impetus
to the circulation of good books
through the local library. Good
music and clever skits marked the
two hours of appreciated home-talent
entertainment furnished by
many organizations from over the
county.
Starting with numbers by the
Heppner school band, led by Har
old Buhman, the program moved
smoothly throughout, bringing
rounds of applause, and in the less
serious moments, uproars of hilar
ity. Jack O'Hara captivated the audi
ence, singing "The Oregon Trail"
to accompaniment played on the pi
ano by Miss Juanita Leathers and
on the violin by his small sister,
Mary Patricia, This offering was
followed by the Business & Profes
sional Womens club skit, "Little
Nell," a farce starring Miss Kather
ise Mitchell as the bewhiskered
father, Miss Rose Leibbrand as the
innocent daughter, Miss Dorothy
Peterson as the villain, and Mrs.
Frelda Sharp as the sheriff.
The Rebekahs were represented
by a piano duet with Miss Marjorie
Parker and Norborne Peavy offi
ciating at the ivories. Another farce
skit, "The Romance of "Fiff Pin"
Land," was the offering of the
Bookworms, presenting Mrs. Muriel
Vaughn as the king, Mrs. Louise
Becket as the princess and Mrs.
Madge Thomson as Prince Charm
ing. The Eastern Star sponsored
another piano duet by Mrs. Virginia
Turner and Mary Lou Ferguson.
A tap dance by Jerry Cutler was
the Lexington school offering, a
charming number. Pat Bleakman
with an original reading and Rich
ard Robison with an original song,
represented the Townsend club,
displaying some of Hardman's ex
ceptional talent. More talent from
the same place represented the
school in a farce skit, 'Love and
Corned Beef."
Camp Heppner CCC boys gave
"The Successful applicant." In the
roles were Fred Northam, Fred
Conway, Paul Pierce, Allen Mc
Grath, John Wiley, Andrew Cofflll,
Daniel Beale and John Barber.
Misses Juanita Leathers, Mary
White,. Katherlne Mitchell and
Phyllis Pollock in vocal quartet
sang two pleasing numbers for the
Heppner school faculty. "Gee, How
Gladiola Loves a G-Man," another
of those extra farcical villainous
affairs, gained a big hand as it was
presented for the American Legion
with Harvey Bauman as the old
man, Spencer Crawford as the In
nocent daughter, Clarence Bauman
as the villain and Elbert Cox as the
G (for garbage) man.
For the Lions club, Mrs. Henry
Tetz, Miss Juanita Leathers, Blaine
Isom and Dr. R. C. Lawrence sang
in quartet. The Campflre Girls of
fered "No, No, a Thousand Times
No," a musical farce with still an
other of those long-mustached vil
lains in the person of Caroline
Vaughn. Cast as the heroine was
Kingsley Chapln; the hero, Mar
garet Doollttle; the grandmother,
Kathryn Nys; the grandfather,
Wilma Hudson, while in the hick
quartet which sang the theme song
were Lucille Barlow, Eilene Kelly,
Jean Gemmell and Dorotha Wilson
Lois Jones and Margaret Doollttle
did a skit at the end, with Claribel
Adams as property manager.
For the Christian church, Mrs.
Walter Blackburn In hilarious
makeup read "Sis Hopkins and Her
Beau Bilious." Concluding the
event was Woolgrowers" auxiliary
style Bhow. Joseph Belanger an
nounced this event while models,
wearing latest woolen creations,
were Arlene Morton, Harriet Hager,
Louise Anderson, Kathryn Parker,
Maxlne McCurdy, Marjorie Parker,
Dora Bailey and Frances McCarty,
On behalf of the library assocta'

Voting Here Corresponds
With Outcome in
State and Nation.
ALL MEASURES LOSE
McNary, Pierce, Holman, VanWln
kle, Fatland, French, Victors;
Rodent Tax Favored.
Morrow county was somewhat
ahead of state and nation in the
landslide vote for President Roose
velt at the polls, Tuesday. While
latest returns gave Roosevelt 23
million popular votes nationally to
Landon's 12 million, and Oregon
voted 195,000 for Roosevelt to 95,000
for Landon, this county gave the
president 1181 to Landon's 518. Most
enthusiastic Rooseveltian precinct
was Eight Mile where Landon re
ceived but one of the 62 votes cast
and Roosevelt got 55. Roosevelt
carried every state in the Union ex
cept Maine and Vermont.
The county favored McNary for
senator, Pierce for representative,
Holman for treasurer, Van Winkle
for attorney general, all of whose
election is indicated from the out
side vote. Pierce's vote here ex
ceeded that polled by the president
He polled the heaviest vote of any
opposed candidate, 1282.
Morrow county gave Hanson
Hughes, its candidate for slate rep
resentative, a handsome majority
with 1010 to Fatland's 573, French's
429 and Gray's 423. With two to be
elected, almost complete returns
from the outside showed Fatland
and French leading. The total dis
trict vote at last report, Morrow,
Sherman and Wheeler counties
complete, was Fatland 2344, French
1946, Gray , 1573, Hughes 1725. All
of Gilliam county had been heard
from except Arlington.
Rex Ellis was favored for state
senator and his election is indicated.
Morrow county opposed all state
measures with the exception of the
'Old Age Assistance" act, and out
side returns indicate all the meas
ures were lost. The county's own
rodent control tax measure passed
797 to 600.
A total of 1870 votes were cast
for president in this county from a
registration of 2377, a 75 per cent
poll, the largest recorded in recent
years and probably the largest ever
recorded. People went to the polls
in spite of a cool, blustery day.
An abstract of the county vote
by precincts will be found in an

GROUP BROADENS
SCOPE FOR RIVER
Notson Reports Inland Empire Wa
terways Action to Lions; Wheat
Conference to be Helped.
That Inland Empire Waterways
association will devote its efforts
for the coming year to sponsoring
any feasible program of develop
ment of the Columbia river offered
by the army engineers, rather than
work specifically -for any single lo
cal project, was the meat of the
message brought to the Lions Mon
day noon luncheon by S. E. Notson,
who last week attended the annual
association meeting at Walla Walla.
In electing directors, Judge C. L.
Sweek was maintained while Mr.
Kuntzman of Arlington and Mr.
Nelson of The Dalles were added
from the lower river district to
give more widespread representa
tion, Mr. Notson said.
He outlined various proposals of
river development and still main
tained that construction of Umatil
la -Rapids dam was the next logical
step. Mr. Nelson, secretary of The
Dalles chamber of commerce, of
fered the cooperation of hi3 group
to the end that The Dalles would
not be the last inland empire sea
port, and that full advantage might
be taken of the Bonneville sealocks.
Navigation of the Columbia and
Snake by barges and coastwise ves
sels was visaged. Also announced
was development of a new type riv
er vessel which is expected to rev
olutionize river transportation and
bring lower shipping rates to the
interior.
Lions offered cooperation in help
ing entertain the Eastern Oregon
Wheat league annual convention,
December 4-5, with Joseph Belang
er, county agent, urging the import
ance of the city preparing for this
large assemblage, which exceeds in
membership that of Oregon Wool
growers, entertained here two years
ago. The club also voted to Invite
a representative of the pea canning
ndustry to address a local meeting
in the near future on the possibility
of establishing a pea-raising and
cannning industry here. Ray P.
Kinne, president, brought up dis
cussion of the pea industry after
talking with Judge W. T. Campbell
who holds high hopes that Morrow
county would be benefitted by such
ndustry.
Arlington Bows to Locals
In Friday's Football Game
By P. McCARTY and D. turner
Staging a polished aerial attack,
Heppner's Fighting Irish defeated
Arlington's "invincible" Honkers,
14-0, on the latter's field last Fri
day afternoon.
At the beginning of the game,
Heppner's kick-off was taken by
Leroy Baker who returned it to the
35-yard line. After three unsuccess
ful passes, Arlington punted. Mix
ing flashy running plays with a
dangerous passing attack, the Irish
marched 65 yards for the first score
of the game. Gilman bucked thru
center from the 2 yard line for the
touchdown. His pass to Hoskins
made good the conversion. Neither
tear.i threatened again during the
remainder of the first half.
Arlington was a consistent threat
every time they had their hands on
the ball.
In the third quarter with con
sistent gains by running and pass
ing, Heppner gained a first down
on Arlington's 8 yard line. After
three unsuccessful line plays, Hepp
ner relinquished the ball to Ar
lington after a fumble on the fourth
down. Arlington, still playing safe,
kicked out of danger on their first
play. The quarter ended with the
ball in Arlington's possession near
mid-field.
The river boys, realizing they
were a beaten team, opened the last
quarter with a barrage of passes.
However, after reaching the Mor
row county team's 18 yard line, their
threat ended when Gilman, making
a beautiful catch, intercepted Ba
ker's pass. The Irish again used
their passing attack to an advant
age. After gaining a first down on
their own 45 yard line, signal-bark
er sent Van Marter off tackle in a
fake reverse. Van Marter, who had
previously been held for short gams
by a stubborn Arlington defense,
furiously cut through the line,
dodged two would-be tacklers, and
sprinted 55 yards for the finol
marker of the game. Gilman, on
an end-around, fought his way
across the line for the conversion.
Gllman's shovel pass to Hoskins
worked 6 times without an incom
pletion. Van Matter's pass to Gil
man, and vice versa, was also a
consistent groundgalner.
On the line, Knowles and Gilliam
showed marked improvement at the
tackle and guard positions. Johnny
Hayes and Harold Armstrong,
transfers from Tillamook and Gree
ley, Colorado, respectively, were
outstanding in the local's stalwart
forward wall. Cason, speedy made
over guard, turned in one of his
best of the senson at right halt.
Munkers played his usual good
eame at quarterback.
Heppner meets Hermiston Armis
tice day, on the Bulldog's field. Fig
uratively speaking, Heppner is one
touchdown better. The local team,
resting this week end, will be in tip
top shape for the last game of the
season. This week, Coach Henry
Tetz, in t anticipation of a hard
fought game Wednesday, is busily
rounding his squad into shape.
AUXILIARY TO MEET.
Woolgrowers auxiliary will hold
their regular luncheon and business
meeting at the Lucas place tomor
