PAGE SIX HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, JAN. 7, 1937. THE Hehisch Published by the Journalism ClMg ot Heppner Sigh School Heppner to Play Grass Valley This coming Saturday night at the gymnasium the Heppner and Grass Valley high school basketball teams will oppose each other for the first time in several years, in what prom ises to be the most exciting game so far this season at Heppner. Having taught at Grass Valley for several years, Mr. Tetz, coach of Heppner's team, knows most of the boys on their team and says that four of the five have played bas ketball together since they were in the fourth grade. This in an indi cation of the strength of their team, and as many of you will remember Grass Valley represented their dis trict at the district tournament here last year, and will undoubtedly be the strongest team Heppner has played so far" this season. The Heppner team is also com posed of veterans and has won four out of the five games it has played. Both the Heppner and Grass Valley teams play the same type of game, a fast-breaking offense and man-toman defense, and consequently the game will be fast and full of thrills, with anything liable to happen. If Heppner can win this game, it will be an indication that our team is really going places. Mr. Tetz is par ticularly anxious to win this game from a personal standpoint, and the team members intend to do their part Everybody be sure to come! It is guaranteed that you will see a game well worth seeing and one you'll not soon forget. H.H.S. Heppner Swamps Lexington In a fast rough game on the local court last week, the Fighting Irish took the measure of the Lexington squad and ran over them by a 21 point margin. Heppner took an early lead and held it throughout the remainder of the game, the score at half time be ing 23 to 5. Munkers of Heppner paced both squads with 11 points, while his teammates, Turner and Gilman, garnered 10 each. High scorer for the Jackrabbits was Palmer, with 3 field goals. H.H.S. Basketball Spirit Basketball season is upon us again, Our chances for a winning team are bright, but a lot depends upon us, the students. A good team is not made from practice alone. It is made from the support it gets. ATTEND ING THE GAMES will not help much if we go just to be going somewhere. We have to go to the games with the idea in mind of backing our team whether it is win ning or losing. Cheering them on continually is really showing our loyalty to the team. Catcalls for the opposing team only show our poor sportsmanship. Let us throughout the basketball season show our team that we are loyal to them whether they win or lose. H.H.S. Excuse? Through the misty, swirling snow, two figures, muffled and wrapped to the "high" brows, struggled tow ard an ultimate goal. Ho! One falters and nearly falls. His com rade takes his arm, and on again they go, only to stumble and both go down in a drifted pile of snow. Can it be exhaustion from this su preme effort? Nay, these "kids" think they can play along on the way to school and then use the deep snow as an excuse to get out of staying in an hour for being late. We are rather dubious. H.H.S. Semester Tests Now that vacation is over, stu dents can settle down to prepare for semester tests. Everyone will take all of his semester exams this year. This is somewhat of a blow to the pride of those students who have been proud of ! the fact they have never taken a semester test because of exemptions. However, we realize that tests are being required of all beginners in the important fields of life's work and we should get our preparation for and experience in taking this type of examination in high school. Another valuable outcome of , these examinations is the help in summing up what we have gained from each course during the year. Some think of exams with dread and trembling because of the fear of failure. There should be no grounds for this feeling if their daily preparation has been satisfactory. If their work merited exemption un der the old plan they should cer tainly be well prepared to pass these semester tests. H.H.S. Pep Club Holds Meeting The Pep club held a meeting on January 5th to draw the names of three people to be taken in as mem bers of their club. The three names drawn Were Harriet Hager, Robert Scrivner and Riley Munkers. H.H.S. "Guess Who" Very nice looking is she, this ju nior girl who has a pretty head of blond hair, blue eyes, and long lashes. She likes all types of ac tivities and may be seen at dances, the theater, on the hill coasting, bicycling, or hiking. During the recent vacation she could usually be found at the home of a girl friend whose brother from college was spending the holidays at home. No matter where she is she likes to joke and get into a little mis chief. She always likes to have a good time and is seldom sad. She likes all types of people especially red-heads. She is a very outstand ing girl and naturally has many friends. H.H.S. Christmas Social Hour As a last get-together before the holidays, the high school student body gave an inforrrial dance in the school gymnasium Wednesday, De cember 23. All members of the stu dent body and the alumni of Hepp ner were invited. About forty-five couples attended. The gym was decorated with red and green streamers. There was a small tree in each of the four cor ners of the gym and a large tree in the center. The floor was lighted by spotlights at each end and two floor lamps at the entrance. The music was furnished by Mar- jorie Parker and Miss Leathers at at piano and Buddy Blakely -at the drums. Refreshments were served at eleven o'clock, after which time everyone wished everyone else a .merry Christmas and a happy new year and departed. H.H.S. Christmas Vacations Miss Katherine Mitchell, our com mercial teacher, reports that she had a very nice time during Christ mas vacation. She flew by airplane from Pendleton to Nyssa, her home town, where she had an enjoyable visit with her folks. The last three days of vacation she spent in Pen dleton. Mr. and Mrs. N. E. Peavy spent the holidays in Corvallis at the home of Mr. Peavy's parents. Mr. Peavy reports they had a very enjoyable time visiting with his family and friends. Miss Dorothy Peterson, our home economics teacher, enjoyed a splen did vacation in Los Angeles, visiting her mother and sister. Mr. Grimes visited his parents at Harrisburg during the vacation. He also attended the O. S. T. A. meeting held at Portland and visited the Smith-Hughes department at Scap poose. Though he returned to Hepp ner early, he had a very pleasant vacation. Mr. and Mrs. Blankenship mo tored to Centralia, Wash., to spend Christmas eve with Mr. Blanken ship's parents. On Christmas day they went to Everett, Wash., and visited Mrs. Blankenship's folks for several days. They also spent sev eral days visiting friends in Seattle. After the O. S. T. A. meeting in Port land they returned to Heppner,, bringing with them Mr. Blanken ship's sister who will spend some time visiting here. 'Mr. and Mrs. Tetz spent a portion of their vacation with Mrs. Tetz's parents at Grass Valley. Later Mr. Tetz attended the O. S. T. A. meet ing in Portland. He reports the un usual privilege of being present at a free banquet there. They returned 1 to Heppner to celebrate the coming of the new year. H.H.S. Have you ever Seen Mr. Blankenship in hip boots? Noticed who was on the debate team? Wondered about the new names of some of the students Van Mar ter, "Punch Drunk Tuffy Van Mar marter" and Fred Hoskins, "Turtle Foot Hoskins"? Found out who went on a snow party Monday night? Wondered why Miss Peterson ran from home to the theater Monday night? (Snowballs surely fly.) Ed.: "Mr Peavy, are there any good jokes in here." Mr. Peavy: "Yes, plenty of them. Ruth Green: "Where do all of the Christmas handkerchiefs go to?" Fred Hoskins: "I don't know." Ruth: "No one nose." H.H.S. Mr. Grimes, in Ag. Class II: "Bill, what are you going to raise for a! project?" Bill Browning: "Do I get any grade for raising heck?" Have you ever wondered why Andy Shoun has dark circles un der his eyes? Mr. Peavy changed the seating ar rangement in English V class? So many people find the halls slip pery? So many history units are still due? So many people worry about tak ing semester tests? So many errors are made in ty ping? So many students turned out for the debate team? Why Lawrence Wehmeyer hates the girls? New Service Ready For Rural Groups "Oregon in a Can," "Millions of Eggshells," "This Little Pig Went to Oregon," "The Old Woman in the Shoe." These intriguing titles and a num ber of others designate parts of a new program service for rural or ganizations just launched by the 0 S. C. extension service under the di rection of J. R. Beck, for many years county agent of Polk county and now extension specialist in rural service. To every grange lecturer and far mers' union program committee in the state has been mailed a copy of one of these prepared programs, which are designed to form the ba sis of an evening's forum or discus sion meetings. The program outlines supplied by the extension service are prepared in attractive mimeo graphed form and contain basic facts on the subject and many sugges tions for obtaining related local in formation. Although only one "sample" pro gram has been sent out to each or ganization, any or all of the pro gram outlines may be obtained free of cost not only by granges and far mers' unions but by any other group or organization which desires to make use of them, says Mr. Beck. Five program outlines have been prepared so far and others are in the making. "Oregon in a Can" deals with the rapidly expanding food processing industry which takes the products of 40,000 of Oregon's best acres. "Millions of Eggshells" gives the highlights of Oregon's commer cial egg industry and raises ques tions on poultry production and marketing. "This Little Pig Went to Oregon" deals with swine production and marketing and shows that Oregon is still importing pork products equal to a grand total of 250,000 hogs an nually. "The Old Woman in the Shoe" presents in an attractive man ner the names and classifications of the leading soil types found in Ore gon and shows how these may be used to local advantage.
