Mustangs Fall Before Pioneers
. Last Saturday night the Heppner
Mustangs met defeat at the hands
of the highly-touted Mac-Hi Pio
neers, in what proved to be the best
game seen on the local court for
some time. The crowd was the larg
est to witness a game here for sev
eral years.
Despite the fact that the Pioneers
are rated as one of the best teams in
the state, the Mustangs gave little
ground and provided them with
some of the stiffest competition they
have had this season.
The first quarter was nip and tuck
with the crowd in a frenzy before
Mac-Hi finally took the lead, 5 to 4.
Throughout the second quarter they
further increased their lead, until it
stood 15 to 8 at halftime. Starting
the second half they increased their
margin to 29 to 16. The last quarter
was even with both teams scoring
six points each.
The illness of several members of
the squad handicapped the Mustangs
somewhat, and therefore the start
ing team was forced to-play through
out the whole game, while the Pio
neers used several reserves. The
lack of reserves made it difficult for
the Mustangs to hold the Pioneers
in check during the last stages of
the game.
, Even though they lost, the Hepp
ner team made a good showing and
has promise of being victorious in
many games during the rest of the
season. Next Friday night the Mus
tangs tangle with the Arlington
Honkers in what has every indica
tion of being a thrilling struggle,
with the Mustangs out to avenge
last year's defeats.
The lineup for the Mac-Hi game
was as follows: Heppner forwards,
Turner (5), Gilman (3); center, Van
Marter (8); guards, Munkers, Hos
kins (6). Mac-Hi forwards, Kol
berg (6); Ireland (8); center, Morris
(7); guards Rinker, Fisk (10). Sub
stitutes: Mac-Hi Preston (4), Ro
loff. Referee: Edwin Ingles, Board
man. H.H.S.
New Semester Results in Changes
With the beginning of the second
semester, the English classes will
devote most of their time to litera
ture, but ten minutes of each class
period will be spent in drill on the
principles of English. In this way
the students will gain knowledge
valuable for the Minimum Essentials
test.
"Occupations" is being offered this
semester, with Mr. Blankenship as
instructor. This course teaches stu
dents facts about the various occu
pations and the advantages offered
by them for development and ad
vancement, as well as surveying the
personal requirements for success
in any field.
The state vocational director has
allowed Heppner high school full
time Smith-Hughes work. This
makes a division of these classes pos
sible, and in the future Mr. Grimes
will teach nothing but agriculture
Mrs. Ed Clark has been engaged to
teach biology and geometry, the two
subjects which Mr. Grimes formerly
taught. Mrs. Clark is also the in
structor of a new course called Eng
lish Essentials, taught for those who
are weak in fundamentals.
The two general science classes
have been combined into one class,
with Miss Peterson as the teacher.

Junior Play Selected.
This year a hilarious three-act
comedy has been chosen for the
junior play. The play, "Crashing
Society," is the story of a farmer who
inherited a large amount of money,
and with it troubles with his family.
His family, with the exception of his
son and himself, is set on crashing
New York society. In the play many
humorous and embarrassing situa
tons exist which will hold one's in
terest throughout the presentation.
The cast consists of the following:
Adam Dunnigan, the husband who
prefers the farm; Elsie Dunnigan,
the wife who wants to crash society;
Marguerite, the oldest daughter;
George, the son; Christabel, the
youngest daughter; Scruples-Scruples,
the butler; Miss Gadgett, the
tutor; Mr. Van Witherspoon, a lead
er in New York society; Mrs. Van
Witherspoon, his wife; Cyril Van
Witherspoon, their son; Agatha Mul
rooney, virtuoso, and Miss Louise
Miller, the reporter.
The play promises to be a great
success. Everyone is urged to attend
and have the time of his life. The
date set is March 19.

Here's to the Class of '38
Here's to the Junior Class,
The class of the third long year.
Here's to the members who man
aged to pass
With trembling and with fear.
Here's to the honors they have won,
To the teachers and officers true,
Who've labored when there was no
fun,
Through the weeks and the Mon
days blue.
Here's to the years they've put be
hind, With their share of the cuffs and
aches.
Here's to the ties that long will bind
Our love for old '38.

what is a wampum warehouse?"
Mr. Tetz: "I don't know."
Harold: "It's an Indian bank."
Cora Scott: "Boy! It sure is snow

IT SEEMS AS THOUGH
Len and Riley were hunting for
two valuable possessions Sunday
night. Where and how did you find
them?
The new schedule is quite dis
tressing to the students. What sched
ule isn't?
A certain junior girl has a special
interest in a tall center on the bas
ketball team. Here's wishing her
good luck.
The new boy has a special at
traction for freshman girls. Well,
why not
Andy D.: "Fred, can you loan me
some money?"
Fred Hoskins: "I couldn't loan
you a cent. I'm so poor, I can put
my socks on from both ends."
Riley: "What's the matter, Andy?
You look mad."
Andy Shoun(holding up his exam
ination papers): "I am. I'm seeing
red, I'm so mad."
H.H.S.
Still Room for Improvement
Even though our basketball team
did lose last Saturday night to Mac
Hi, a much bigger school, we have
nothing to be ashamed of because
they made a Very good showing
against a team ranked high in this
state.
One of the reasons for the good
playing of our team was that they
received a large amount of encour
agement from the numerous towns
people who were at the game. This
had a decided effect on the morale
of the team, as it showed the boys
that you were behind them.
For some time it seemed as though
all the efforts being made to try to
get you to come to the games were
in vain, but we certainly appreciated
the turn-out Saturday evening.
There is still a great deal of room
for improvement, however, because
the gymnasium was far from full
last Saturday night.
The major part of the season is
yet to come, so don't quit coming
now. We have promise of a cham
pionship team, and with tournament
time looming up in the near future,
we must all get behind our boys.
Next Friday we play Arlington here,
so lets all go and get in on the shel
lacking they are going to get for last
year's defeat.
Remember now! You've got to
be there.

'Tis the one and only A. J. D.
Testimonial Would
Honor Governor
Morrow county has been allotted
a quota of $30 by The Governor
Charles A. Martin Testimonial, an
organization which proposes to place
a large bronze bust of the governor
in the new state capitol, according
to word received by Judge Bert
Johnson from J. C. Ainsworth of
Portland, president of the testimonial
organization.
Governor Martin's large part in
obtaining the new capitol entitles
him to this special recognition, the
organization believes. Contributions
of $1 to $5 are solicited, which may
be left with Judge Johnson.
L. L. Gilliam, the government
weather observer, was "under the
weather" yesterday, being confined
at home by flu.
ALL CITY OFFICERS
Continued from First Page
money be turned back to cities' gen
eral funds was approved.
The PWA street surfacing project
being prepared by Frank Hayes,

versation with Hayes a few minutes
before.
Payment of current expense bills

meeting.
Returning from Pendleton Satur
day evening on his local stage run,
Marion Oviatt hit driving conditions
the worst he had found them any
time up to then. A heavy wind was
fast drifting a blinding snow in og
Hollow and on top of Franklin hill.
Though he made it across without
chains, he doubted if the feat could
have been accomplished a few min
utes later.
Leslie L. Matlock was reported
sufficinetly recovered in his fight
against an attack of pneumonia to
be able to sit up at Heppner hospital
the end of the week.
J. O. Rasmus, city water superin
tendent, was reported as quite ill at
his home last night, suffering an at
tack of the flu.
Mrs. P. W. Mahoney was confined
at home by an attack of influenza

AT THE LEGISLATURE.
Members of the senate committee
on alcoholic control at a meeting
Tuesday morning predicted that Or
egon would soon again be a dry state
unless steps were taken to clean up
conditions existing in many beer
parlors and to enforce the law more
strictly. Senator Franciscovich sug
gested that enforcement of the pro
visions of the Knox act be centered
in the Liquor Conrol commission
instead of leaving it to city and
county officials as 'at present with
its innumerable opportunities for
buck passing.
Newspapermen covering the ses
sion whose wives or other relatives
are holding down legislative jobs
were made the target of a House
resolution this week condemning the
practice as depriving many needy
persons of a chance for employment.
