Personality Miss Neva Neill was brought up in Heppner and went to high school and grade school at Pine City. She attended the Eastern Oregon Normal school; then came to Heppner where she is teaching the first grade. She has taught here only one year. H.H.S. Junior Play Cast Party The junior play cast assembled Wednesday, March 31, at the Hager residence to celebrate their recent success. Ice cream and cake were served for the refreshments, and for entertainment games of monop oly and rummy were played. Mr. Peavy was presented an electric table-lamp by La Verne Van Marter in behalf of the class. Mr. Peavy thank ed them and expressed his apprecia tion for their fine cooperation. He also favored the play cast with a few popular selections on the piano. H.H.S. Brain Buster. 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? H.H.S. Grade School News The third grade is making kal somine pictures to illustrate their Indian stories. First grade Joan Marie Hisler was ill all last week. Bobbie Kilkenny has left Heppner to attend school in Portland. The second grade is working on a unit about birds; they are now making bird pictures. The fifth grade is studying the Indians during the early colonial period. They are making dolls and tepees to illustrate them. They have also formed a citizenship club. All grade and high school students were dismissed Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock for teachers institute, which will be held at Spokane this year. H.H.S. Band Dance Successful The annual band dance was held Saturday, April 3, for the purpose of raising funds to send the local school band to Corvallis. The dance proved a great success, clearing $76.30. Ev eryone enjoyed the dance to the greatest extent. At ten-thirty, the band played the three numbers they will play at the contest in Corvallis. These included Stars and Stripes, Carnival Over ture, and Festival Overture, the lat ter being the required selection. Hugh Crawford, who is to be the solo representative, played his se lection, Corinthian Polka. The entire community wishes the Heppner school band the best of luck, and hope that they are rated in the first group. H.H.S. 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?) H.H.S. 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. H.H.S. 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!
