Answer to last week's: One of
the coins wasn't a dime, but the
other one was.
An Irish American was refused
enlistment in the U. S. army on the
sixteenth of March. The next day
he was beaten up for waving a red
flag. Why?

Humor
Fred Hoskins: (to druggist) "Give
me some of that prepared monacteic
acidesder of salicy acid."
Druggist: "Do you mean aspir
in?" Fred: "That's right. I can never
think of that long name."
Mr. Grimes: "Say, Marvin, you
know you came second in the F. F.
A. contest at Condon."
Marvin: "That's great. Who took
first place?"
Mr. Grimes: "The rest of the F.
F. A."
Van: "That's a fly in my soup."
Harriet: "Don't worry; he won't
eat much."
Little Jaqueline Tetz, age seven,
had been taken to the zoo. She
stood before the spotted leopard for
a minute staring intently. Then,
turning to her mother she asked,
"Say, Ma, is that the dotted lion
that everybody wants Dad to sign
on.'
Bill McCaleb: "No girl ever made
a fool of , me.".
Ruth Green: 'Then who did?"
Maxine: "How long can a goose
stand on one leg?"
Len: "I don't know."
Maxine: "Try it and see."
Loren: "Say, Pop, how do you
say people in Latin?"
Mr. Tetz: "I don't know, son."
Loren: "Populi."
Mr. Tetz: "How dare you tell
your father he's lying."
Have You Ever:
Seen anyone sorry that school will
soon be out?
Heard Willie Stone pronounce shift
correctly?
Wondered why so many of the ju
nior cast members were absent last
Thursday morning?
Wondered why Mr. Peavy seemed
under the weather Thursday morn
ing? (Could it have been that
"morning after" feeling?)
Wondered why Miss Mitchell was
blushing so much last Thursday?
Wondered how come Billy Irwin
got lost Saturday night?
Wondered why John Crawford is
working so hard to make the base
ball team? (Could it be a girl
friend?)
Seen Van taking some grade school
boys to a cleaning in a game of
marbles? (Was it for keeps, Van?)

Support the Baseball Team
Baseball season is here again! Now
is a good time to show just what
Heppner High really can do. If we
get behind the team and show them
we are for them, they will fight much
harder. The boys do their best, but
they would do better if the town
people were backing them up. Al
though we forfeited the opening
game here Saturday with Umatilla
because of having to use an ineligible
player, we won the game 13 to 3 and
stand a very good chance of win
ning from Hermiston when we play
them there April 16.
H.H.S.
Guess Who?
She's high, she's low, she's gay, she's
sad;
She's short, she's tall, she's good,
she's bad;
She's fat, she's thin, she's dull, she's
bright;
She's large, she's small, she's dark,
she's light;
Her hair is black, blonde, red, or
brown;
It's straight and inclined to curl.
It's easy why the frown?
She's just the High School Girl.

Heppner Wins But Loses
Last Saturday, in the opening
game of the season, the Mustang
baseballers knocked in 13 runs, 10
more than did Umatilla, who chalked
up 3 to their credit, but still the Vik
ings had the satisfaction of journey
ing home with a victory over the
strong Heppner team. Minus the
services of their regular catcher, the
locals had to substitute a player
who was ineligible for high school
competition, and the result was the
forfeiting of the game to the vis
itors. Heppner started the scoring in
their half of the opennig inning,
when Gilman, after clouting a triple
off the light field fence, was knock
ed in by Van Marter's double. Hepp
ner scored again in the 5th, 7th, 8th,
and 9th innings, making 6 runs in
the fifth. Umatilla's big inning came
in the 7th, three players crossing
home plate.
Gilman fanned 15 Umatilla men,
with Van Marter, relief pitcher in the
ninth inning, adding two more, for
a total of 17 strike-outs.
Heppner's next game will be with
Arlington on Saturday, April 10, be
ing played on the river team's home
field. The Honkers have a veteran
ball club, and promise to make it
tough going for Heppner.
H.H.S.
Ten Years Ago This Week
The grade school game with Lex
ington, which was to have been
played last Friday, will be played on
the home field Thursday at 3 o'clock.
Last Saturday about eighteen
sophomores journeyed a short dis
tance up Skinner creek and enjoyed
a very pleasant afternoon.
The seniors have ordered their an
nouncements and expect to receive
them by the first of May. Each an
nouncement will be headed with the
senior class emblem worked in the
class colors coral and silver.
The students of the typing class
will test their skill at thumping the
keys Thursday. Miss Peterson has
received some new tests and the
students will try for the typing cer
tificates given for writing 30 words
a minute, with a maximum of 15
errors.
H.H.S.
But Six Weeks Left
Now that all of the six weeks' ex
aminations are over and only six
weeks of school left, it would be
profitable for, each and every stu
dent to get down to work and show
the teachers of our school that we
can really do something.
The end of school is not something
to look forward to, as it will mean
a parting of a great many of our
friends, especially the seniors.
HHS
PINTO-POINTS
Umatilla, the shut-out conqueror
of Arlington, was set back 10 runs
by the Heppner team; but as many
good games go this game went, trav
eling via the forfeit route to the
Vikings. As the Mustang backstop
failed to appear in uniform, it was
necessary to find a fill-in, and find
ing eio experienced substitute, Willie
McRoberts, a graduate, was placed in
the catcher's position. The game al
ready being forfeited, Don Turner,
an ineligible, donned a glove and
played the left field position. Al
though the locals garnered 13 tal
lies to the Umatilla's 3, they lost the
right to claim their victory, because
they were forced to use players who
according to the state high school
eligibility rules, had already had
their limited fling at baseball. Per
haps the next game will see an eli
gible team in action.
The Hermiston outfit look to be
a tough one, at least if scores indi
cate a team's strength. Playing on
the home field, the Bulldogs wal
loped Stanfield 22 to 1. The Her
miston battery, v of Crampton and
Rankon, totaled five runs between
them, with the infield crossing the
plate nine times to the outfield's
eight. They seem to size up as a
very formidable foe, and will no
doubt provide real competition when
they tangle with Heppner April 16.
When Physical Ed is held outside,
it is quite interesting to note the
number of boys wearing gym suits
. . . the first day of outside gym,
probably 90 of the class has on
regular gym togs, but each day this
number is decreased until one per
iod last week, exactly four boys in a
a class of 36 had on gym suits . . . the
next step for those who desire not
to wear a gym outfit is to drop their
Physical Ed altogether; but that is
an example set by the feminine side
of the school, and not a commend
able one, so let's not follow suit.
Texas leaguers . . . Tennis is rap
idly becoming a popular sport at
Hermiston . . . the petition concern
ing the swimming pool, which was
recently signed by students of the
Heppner school, should prove to the
"downtowners" that, when it was
made known that a plunge was our
desire, we were not talking just to
hear ourselves do so ... It will be
the New York Yankees and the New
York Giants again in the 1937 World
Series, according to the managers of
15 major league ball clubs. Vic
Adams, present coach at North Bend,
formerly held that position at lone.
Goliath had his David, Louis his
Schmeling, and Dave had his Brit
ton when Bill Britton, Pacific uni
versity, clipped Dave Johnston of
Boardman on the whiskers for a one
round knockout, dethroning the
Morrow county lad as the North
west Diamond Belt heavyweight
champ ... Britton also scored a
first-round kayo over Jack Brandis
of Oregon State in the semi-finals.
With no games chalked up for either
win or loss, Heppner will try to put
one in the "won" column when they
take on the Arlington team, down
there. So far, their seasonal play has
not been outstanding, but last week's
practice session revealed decided im
provement in the hitting department
... a hit in the park is better than
two strike-outs while swinging for
the fence!
