Heppner High School
Editorial
Christmas has again made its ap
pearance in the "March of Time,"
and many hearts are gladdened by
the thoughts of the reunion with
loved ones. King Frost will set his
icy fingers on the scene, thus help
ing to paint more clearly the picture
of holiday fun.
Let's enjoy ourselves and make
others happy while doing so. It is
merry making. Everyone feels the
tingling joy of a holiday season.
This is not only a season of re
ceiving, but also of giving. We can
do a lot for peiple by giving more
than receiving, and after all, it isn't
the gift we give, but the spirit in
which we give it.
H.H.S.
Christmas
There was a Christmas party at
the gymnasium Wednesday, in the
form of a big social hour. It lasted
from eight o'clock to eleven, and a
good time was had by all. Refresh
ments were served by the Home Ec
economics club. Other committees
were appointed for decoration and
entertainment. Students from the
high school who have graduated in
the last four years were invited also.
H.H.S.
Heppner Bows to Goldendale
The Fighting Irish tasted defeat
for the first time this season at the
hands of the fast breaking Golden
dale squad at Goldendale last Sat
urday. The Washington speedy five
ran up a total of 34 points to the
Oregonians' 28.
The Washington team held the
lead throughout most of the game,
Heppner taking the lead only once
when Gilman sank a basket at the
opening of the second quarter.
Pacer for the Heppner quintet
was Hoskins, with 10 points; Van
Marter was next with 8.
H.H.S.
Class News
The junior class members have
ordered their class rings. They had
their pick between gold and silver;
also gold and silver rings with sets.
They expect the rings to be thor
oughly satisfactory.
H.H.S.
Feature Flash
The alarming number of colds and
absences in the last few days make
us wonder whether Winifred
Rhoades isn't right to a large degree
in "It's the Soul That Needs Treat
ment." She says "Sick bodies are
after all the result of sick souls,
and thus we must develop inner
strength to face life squarely."
H.H.S.
Boys' Sports
The boys' gym class has taken up
the subject of basketball. The boys
are divided up into four groups.
Twelve minute games are staged be
tween the groups. Later on, the
class will be divided up into regu
lar teams.
Ag. II class is building a foot-bath
in the boys' shower room. This was
a much needed accessory, as there
was much danger of "athlete's foot"
"getting started among the boys.
It seems that many gym suits have
disappeared. Many have no way in
identifying them all are urged to
sew their initials in their suits, so if
they are misplaced, they can be iden
tified. H.H.S.
""' Humor
Did you know that
Eileen Kelly looked for the mistle
toe all afternoon, and nothing hap
pened? Gerald Cason asked everyone to
bring him razor blades for Christ
mas, to go with his three razors.
'Tis easy enough to be pleasant
When life flows along without a
frown;
But the one worth while is the one
who can smile
When his garters are coining
down?
Miss Peterson: (after Fred had
nearly tripped one of the girls in
the aisle.) "Don't you know you
shouldn't do that you had better
count to ten after this."
Fred: "Yeah, but she'd be gone
by then."
