Do We Want Cliques?
Heppner High has been very un
fortunate this year in having a large
number of cliques. These have been
severely condemned by many, but
they still seem to be present. The
schools that do. not have cliques
seem to get along a lot better than
those that do. They have more co
operation between members, and in
general seem to have more activities.
If Heppner would do away with her
cliques, it is believed that they would
have much better activities than
they have had in the past. It will
soon be time for the basketball tour
nament and the team will need CO'
operation. If the student body gets
together, works together and yells
together at the games, our team
should win the tournament without
a doubt. We can't be together when
we clique off into groups. So let's
get rid of the cliques and do our
best so that we can help win the
tournament.

Heppner Loses to Hcrmiston
Reaching its lowest scoring ebb
of the season, Heppner lost its re
turn game at Hermiston last Satur
day to the Bulldogs by a score of
25-14. Hermiston, inspired by a
large turnout and playing on the
home court in a new gymnasium,
decidedly outplayed the Mustangs
throughout the game.
Heppner has been unable to find
its scoring eye since the Condon
game, but with only two games in
twelve days, the team should be in
top shape for the sub-district tour
nament to be held here the 26th and
27th of this month. Tomorrow, Fri
day, Heppner plays Fossil in the lo
cal gymnasium in the final home
game of the season. Saturday night
they journey to Milton-Freewater
for a return engagement with the
Pioneers.

Program by Freshmen
An assembly was held last Friday
in which the freshman entertained.
The program was opened with "The
Man on the Flying Trapeze," played
by the freshman band, which con
sisted of Carolyn Vaughn, Jack Mer
rill, Richard Hayes, Harold Arm
strong, Paul Doolittle, Harry Tam
blyn, and Kemp Dick. The sym
phony orchestra, directed by Donald
Jones, played "Sola." The mem
bers of the orchestra were Shirley
Wilson, Margaret Tamblyn, Richard
Hayes, Paul Doilittle, and Jack Mer
rill. A piano duet was then played
by Jack Merrill and Carolyn Vaughn.
The program was concluded with
two tap dances, one by Norma Prock
and the other by Cora Scott.
After the freshmen had given their
program, a yelling contest was car
ried on between the classes. The
junior class having won, each class
member was presented with a val
entine by the student body.
H.H.S.
Basketball Turnament
The sub-district 13-B basketball
tournament will be held at Heppner
on February 26-27. The teams that
are to play include Boardman, Con
don, Fossil, lone, Lexington, and
Heppner.
Boardman and Heppner are prob
ably the strongest contenders, each
team having defeated the other once.
The winner of this tournament is to
play in the district tournament at
Arlington March 4-5.
Let's turn out and give the team
our loyal support.
H.H.S.
Guess Who?
She goes to high school. She dif
fers from her sisters in that she is
beautiful, for her features are deli
cate and regular and her figure is a
perfect 36. She uses cosmetics, but
only to accentuate her loveliness,
and then only privately.
Her lips are red and kissable, but
she is faithful to only one.
Her clothes are informal, always in
good taste. She carries them with
an appealing, unconscious charm.
She studies hard, makes good
grades. She does not employ soft
soap with her men teachers, nor
does she cling about their necks.
She chews gum lightly. Her danc-1
ing is exquisite, but restrained.
Having no affectations, she does
not attempt to employ a "line."
Her great characteristic is her nat
uralness, her poise.
Give up? Well, we dont know
her, either.
H.H.S.
No Class News?
There has always been some dif
ficulty in securing class news for
the Hehisch. Many of the teachers
complain that the writers of the pa
per come to them and ask, "Is there
any news?" What we should do is
ask more specific questions. Let's
try it.
It is hard for a student to write
up class news that he takes no part
in. I believe that better results
could be had by having a person
who is acquainted with each class
write up the class news. Why not
enlist some assistants, news editors?
H.H.S.
Humor
Have you ever seen or heard
Bismark?
The high school woman-hater?
(Where did you get such ideas, Mar
vin?)
The battle of wits on the bulletin
board, lately?

Heppner High's One Man Gang?
Fred Hoskins winning nickels?

Why Marvin got on as humor ed
itor?
Flash: Dead! All student cliques,
murdered by Student Body Opinion.
Martial law declared!
H.H.S.
Get Your Tickets Early
Have you, as yet, purchased your
ticket for the basketball tournament
to be held here February 26-27?
Season tickets are on sale at $1.10
for adults and 60c for children. If
you are unable to attend all games,
you may purchase tickets for just
those you will be able to see. The
price depends on the game. You
may get details from the girls sell
ing the tickets.
Please do not try to make up ex
cuses when you see the ticket sellers
coming. The high school needs your
patronage and support. We, the
students, will appreciate it very
much if you will buy your tickets
and attend the games.

History Class Discusses Lincoln
Last Friday, the American history
class was devoted to stories of the
life of Abraham Lincoln. The fol
lowing speeches were given: "The
Life of Abraham Lincoln," Clayton
Wright; "How Lincoln Acquired the
Name of 'Honest Abe'," Paul McCar
ty; "He Knew Lincoln," La Verne
Van Marter; "Almost an Oregon
Governor," Neva Bleakman; "Lin
coln's First Hatred for Slavery,"
Maxine McCurdy; "A Conception
of the Gettysburgh Address," Ruth
Green; "Assassination of Lincoln,"
Venon Knowles.
H.H.S.
Eighth Grade News
Alex Thompson is back in school
after an absence of chicken pox.
Lincoln's birthday was observed
February l4 in this grade with the
reading of the "Perfect Tribute" by
Mary Shipman Androse.
The eighth grade boys will journey
to Arlington some time this week to
play basketball with their eighth
grade team.
PINTO-POINTS
The play-offs to decide the dis
trict representatives at the state
tournament will, soon be in full
swing. In this sub-district it looks
like Boardman, especially after the
shellacking they gave Heppner the
other night. Believe you me, the
standings in th N. C. A. L. are surely
a mess. The cellar-holding Lexing
ton team took Fossil on the Wheeler
county team's floor . . . but that
isn't all . . . Condon got around Ar
lington by one point in an over
time period ... a double foul in the
last few seconds of the extra frame
. . . and Condon did what Arlington
didn't . . . again, so what? Just this
. . . that the tournament to be held
here will be worth more than the
price of the ducat.
Yon scoreboard predicts a few of
the "A" teams that were visitors at
Salem last year will repeat this year
. . . looks as if La Grande, Astoria,
Corvallis, McMinnville, and Frank
lin of Portland are pretty fair bets
to show their wares again . . . and of
course Salem, the host, draws a bye
. . . but the struggles which holds our
interest is our neighboring District 2
. . . this should really be a close race.
It's the tricky Hood River Blue Drag
ons against the strong Mac-Hi Pio
neers. As for myself, I'll take the
Pioneers.
The jeering accorded George Gillis
after his decision on the main event
of the F. F. A. smoker had been
given was the most unsportsmanlike
deed seen in Heppner in many a
moon, having every justification for
awarding it as he did. The Condon
lad could have taken the bout on a
foul in the first round if he had so
desired. What would have been
the reaction then? Surely not a few
lusty boos!
According to authorities, swim
ming is one of the best all-round
sports known to physical education
. . . but it can't be proved so without
a swimmin' hole.
It finally happened . . . the tail-end
Idaho Vandals upset the Oregon
Webfoots in a Northern division
game last Friday night by a 35 to 31
score. Here's the chance you O. S.
C. followers have been waiting for
. watch out H. E. T.! To those
who are worried because their team
loses a game or three: Roosevelt
High recently dropped its 49th
straight conference game in the Port
land Interscholastic league. .
H.H.S.
