Time Growing Short
Just one more six-weeks' period
before school it out! That proba
bly sounds good to a great many1
students, but is vacation a time to
look forward to? It may be in one
sense of the word but not in another.
The time school is out is partly a
sad time. Several of the students
are leaving Heppner high school for
good, although they are only under
classmen. The seniors, some of them
our best friends, are leaving to go to
college or for jobs in distant towns.
The ending of school also means the
end of a great many good times. W
means that there is another high
school year gone and all those good
times with it. When the ending of
school means all these things, why
are so many students wishing for it?
Instead of just sitting around and
wishing for school to be out, why
don't they all try to make the most
of the good times in the last six
weeks of school? There are thous
ands of opportunities floating around
such as the possibility of becoming
a student body officer, or getting
more recognition by using one's tal
ents in making some exhibits for
Open House. These are only a few
of the things a person can do. Sal
with these thoughts in our mind,
let us use the last six weeks of school
to the best advantage.

Sophomores Win Ticket Contest
Through the aid of the other
classes in the ticket sales contest,
the junior class play, "Crashing So
ciety," was made a howling financial
success. As was announced last
week, the sophomores, in a last hour
ticket-selling splurge, forged ahead
of their competitors, selling $21.70
worth of tickets, their margin of
win topping others by approximate
ly $10. The juniors were second
with $11.40 worth of tickets sold.
Taking the lead in the forepart of
the contest but dropping back as it
progressed, the freshmen finished in
third place, with $8.80 to ther credit
Through lack of interest, the ever
industrious seniors, feeling that last
year's ticket selling meant a vaca
tion this season, sent their forces to
scout the town for stragglers and
returned with $1.50 in their pockets,
a remarkable feat in itself.
As a whole, the contest was very
successful, and the junior class con
gratulates the students for the fine
cooperation shown.

Brain Buster
A lady once purchased a box of
peaches in a grocery store. The
purchase amounted to sixty cents.
The lady paid the correct amount in
two new American coins, but one of
them was not a dime. How could
she do this?
Answer to last week's Brain bust
er: Since nobles always tell the
truth, a noble would invariably say
he was a noble. And since slaves al
ways lie, they would never say they
were slaves. Therefore, none of the
group would say he was a slave.
Since the second said that the first
said he was a slave, he lied (because
no one says he is a slave) and was
therefore a liar and a slave. The
third said that the second was a
prince but we already knew that the
second was a slave. Therefore the
third lied, too. So he, also, was a
slave. This leaves only one man, the
first, and he must be the noble.

idea of what it is all about, and they
say that next year it will be a very
different story.

Will the Band Hit?
Will the band hit? The answer is
"yes." It will not only hit, but it
will make a home run. In the last
few weeks the band has progressed
very rapidly, and in the remaining
rehearsals it should be in top con
dition for the state contest at Cor
vallis. .
This trip is made possible by the
cooperation and donations of the
Heppner people. The band sincere
ly appreciates this help and will try
its best to do something of which
the people of Heppner will be proud.
Next Saturday, April 3, is Band
Day for the Heppner bandsters. They
will appear Saturday afternoon on
Main street to give another concert.
The Elks have been very generous
by arranging for a dance to be held
in their hall this Saturday night and
have secured the services of Elmer
Steele and his swing band. This
dance is for the benefit of the
Heppner school band.
Let's make it a point to attend
this dance. The band will play the
three numbers which they are going
to play at the contest in order to give
you a chance to form your opinions
of what showing they will make at
Corvallis.

Ten Years Ago This Week '
Last Saturday about eighteen
sophomores journeyed a short dis
tance up Skinner creek and spent a
pleasant afternoon. Terrel Benge
and Paul Jones took cars. Miss Fish
el and Miss Wright chaperoned the
party. A delicious lunch of hot dogs,
salad, sandwiches, ice cream, cake
was consumed. After two or three
games of ball the party returned
home.
The Heppner high school baseball
team will meet the Lexington team
in their first game of the season.
This game will be played on the
Lexington field. A large number of
players have been turning out this
season, and although the team has
not been chosen, this game is ex
pected to be very snappy and inter
esting, due to the fact that Heppner
and Lexington are very close rivals
and usually play the closest and
fastest games of the season.
Plans are under way for the junior-senior
banquet, which will take
place on the 4th of May.
H.H.S.
"There's Something in the Air"
What's wrong with everyone these
balmy spring days? The students
sit around in the class rooms with
blank expressions on their sleepy
faces and glance longingly out of the
windows. Is it late hours they're
keeping, or is it the spring sunshine
and out-of-doors they are thinking
of? Well, whatever it is, they'd bet
ter be getting it, for next Monday
the six weeks' examinations begin.
Why not wait until next Wednes
day afternoon when the teachers go
to Spokane for institute to get that
acute case of spring fever?
H.H.S.
Baseball Game Saturday
Saturday afternoon the Heppner
high school baseball team will at
tempt to add another victory to their
record by defeating Umatilla's hard
hitting team. Last Saturday the high
school tried their strength against
the CCC camp and made a fairly
good showing by defeating them 9-7.
It is the hope of the student body
that the town people will turn out
and support the team as they have in
the past two years. With a good
crowd at the games, Heppner should
again have a championship team.

Did You Know That
It is said before radio there were
only three methods of communica
tion telegraph, telephone, and tell
awoman? A committee is a gathering of im
portant persons who singly can do
nothing but who together decide
nothing can be done?
That Fred Hoskins was looking
for girls at Condon?
That Lawrence Wehmeyer has an
attraction at Arlington?
That Marvin Casebeer can squeal?
Riley Munkers likes an usher?
Gabby likes water from a fire hy
drant? Six weeks' exams come next week?
H.H.S.
Teachers to Attend Institute
School will be dismissed at 2:00 P.
M., April 8, so the teachers can
start for Spokane and the institute
which is to be held there. The six
weeks' exams will be held Monday
and Tuesday of next week instead
of Thursday and Friday.
Musicians, Typists
Compete at O. S. C.
Corvallis The week end of April
9 and 10 will see a large number of
Oregon high school boys and girls
assembled on the O. S. C. campus to
take part in two major state-wide
contests.
Classes A and D of the annual
state high school band contest will
compete at Oregon State April 9 and
10, and classes B and C at U. of O.
the following week end. Band lead
ers decided to divide the contest this
year because the number competing
each year has grown so large. All
of the solo contests will be held on
Friday, April 9, according to Capt.
H. L. Beard, conductor of the col
lege R. O. T. C. band.
Several hundred more high school
students will arrive on the campus
Saturday to match their speed and
accuracy in the annual state high
school typing contest sponsored by
the secretarial science division. In
addition to the usual official cups
and awards, a number of the major
typewriter companies are offering
special prizes to those showing the
greatest skill.
