Heppner Tossers Beat Ilermiston
After Keller's smashing double on
the first pitched ball resulted in 3
run, it looked as if the Hermiston
team was going to have things their
way, but Heppner retaliated with a
five-run spree in the second inning.
The final score: Heppner 8, Hermis
ton 3.
The entire team went lo bat in the
inning, pounding out four hits and
gaining a walk. Munkers, Stone and
Van Marter were chalked up with
singles, and Gilman a double.
This Friday the Mustangs will en
tertain the strong Arlington squad.
Heppner has an early season vic
tory over the Honkers, but won by
only a one-run margin. After two
weeks of practice, the river team
should be at full strength for the
undefeated Heppner team.

Open House Friday
Many students are very busy this
week working on exhibits for Open
House. Each class will have some
kind of exhibit in the class room.
There is also going to be a program
in the gymnasium. The main doors
of the school will be opened Friday
night at 7:00 at which time the par
ents and friends are invited to enjoy
the exhibits and meet the various
teachers. At 8:00 the doors will be
closed, and everyone will go over
to the gymnasium for the program.
After the program the school will be
opened again for a short time if there
are still some people who haven't
had an opportunity to see all the
exhibits.

Elks Entertain Band
The Elks gave a banquet last Fri
day night in honor of the Heppner
school band for their success at the
contest at Corvallis. Many people
think that this banquet was a fare
well to the band for this year, but
it was only the beginning. The band
plans to give three or four more
street concerts before school is out.
They are going to play a number or
so at the "open house this Friday
night; then there is the May Day
music festival in which the band has
a part, on April 30. Probably dur
ing the last, or next to last, week of
school there will be a date set for
the annual band concert, which will
be for the benefit of everyone.

Do You Know That-
Only seven letters G, J, K, U, X,
Y, and Z have not been used in the

In football, the kicker may now

The Aleutian Islands, extending
out of the Alaskan coast, are far

Maine, is east of Seattle?
The daily burden (soil carried by
the river) which the Mississippi
River carries down from the uplands
to the Gulf of Mexico is so great
that it would load 900 trains of 50
cars each, each car containing 25
tons?
A good camel will carry a 500
pound load 70 miles a day, and, if
necessary, go 10 days without food
or drink?
Beethoven was deaf most of his
life? In spite of this handicap he
wrote some of the most noble music
that the world has ever heard.
The earth is belted with more than
300,000 miles - of submarine cables,
over 100,000,000 miles of telephone
wires, and 5,000,000 miles of tele
graph cables?
Although the human heart is only
5 inches long and ZXA inches wide
and weighs from 9 to 11 ounces, it
moves six ounces of blood at each
stroke? It beats about 100,000 times
in a day, so that the work done by
it is equivalent to moving 12 tons in
each 24 hours.

Mr. Grimes and Mr. Blankenship
were traveling toward Condon one
time, and they lost their way. Mr.
Grimes stopped to inquire the way
of a small boy of the road to take
at a cross road. The small boy re
plied, "I don't know the way to Con'
don."
"Which way does that road go,'
asked Mr. Grimes.
"I don't know," replied the boy."
Mr. Grimes said, "You don't know
much of anything, do you?"
The boy replied rather sharply,
"Well, anyhow, I'm not lost."

in the junior play, "The Patsy." Also,
during this year, he filled the office
of student body treasurer. In his
senior year he filled the highest of
fice of the student body, student
body president. Don plans to attend

Ten Years Ago This Week
Ellis Thomson wrote the jokes for
the Heppnerian.
In two baseball games played dur
ing the week, lone beat Heppner
8-0, and Lexington 13-0.
Ten new members were added to
the "H" club. A "Hi Jinks" was be
ing planned for the near future to
entertain the "H" club members.
The seniors received their an
nouncements and were pleased with
them.
PINTO-POINTS
The athletically inclined represen
tatives of Hermiston high school, j
living partially up to that famous
historical adage, came and saw, but
were conquered, twice in fact, los
ing the baseball game in the after
noon by a score of 8 to 3, and the
smoker in the evening, winning one
bout to Heppner"s four, one match
being called a draw.
Gunning for them in order to
make up for the defeats in basket
ball, the Mustangs practically
changed the Hermiston pitcher's
curve ball into a smashing "fence-
ball." On the mound for the river
team, Crampton, whose odd style of
delivery remained no problem for
the local sluggers, was nicked for
four hits in the second inning, three
singles and a double, and in addition
a walk. Heppner put across five
runs in their half of this frame, hold
ing the visitors to four scattered hits
in seven innings, three of which were
converted into scores.
In the best smoker seen here in
many a moon, the Heppner leather
tossers had a little too much on the
ball, or rather the fist, for the pu
gilists from Hermiston. All six of
the inter-school bouts were slug
fests from start to finish, with the
fans clamoring for the always de
sired "slumberland" punch. The
boys whose last names sound the
same but are spelled differently
(Hayes and Hays) proved the out
standing winners in their respect
ive divisions, each winning by de
cisive margins. The main event was
one in every respect, as the heavier
boys hold some unexplainable at
traction for the fight fans; and when
the light-heavies paired off for the
final round, action, and plenty of it,
was witnessed.
Of course, there is always the in
evitable complaint, so here it is. In
the fourth bout of the evening, af
ter piling up an early lead and stav
ing off his opponent's last round
onslaught, Earl Crissman's arm was
not even raised in recognition of his
being awarded a draw with his foe.
Tsk! Tsk!
The only wrestling bout of the
evening was quite comical, as are
mist matches of that nature. Masked,
as their box-office attraction would
probably drop considerably were
their identity made public, a Red
Shadow and a Masked Marvel put
on a show but the spectators' made
it known that the time should be
shortened, and so it was.
An entertaining incident occurred
during the week, concerning the
wrestling match. It seems that a
certain woman on the "party line"
got wind of the fact that the Red
Shadow was to show his wares in
Heppner against another masked
ruffian. As she had been following
his ventures as a wrestler in Port
land by the radio, she naturally was
interested; so to the telephone she
went. After calling several friends
and being unable to find out the ac
tual facts, one of them suggested that
she call the local printing office. The
publishing concern answered the
woman's question that as far as they
knew two boys of the competing
schools were putting on an exhibi
tion. Upon hearing this, her hopes of
seing the Shadow in action hit rock
bottom, and it was said her disap
pointment was hard to hide, even
over the mouthpiece and earphone.
Round and about . . . Latest ru
mor has it that a barn was the scene
of a Braddock-Louis fight (on April
Fool's Day) with 500 millionaires
paying $1000 each to see the Irish
man win the decision. Bill Britton,
northwest representative in the Na
tional Golden Gloves championships,
kayoed his first opponent in the
first round . . . later he was elimin
ated. Bob Feller, sensational 18-year-old
Cleveland hurler, while
pitching for his home town team in
a five-inning game, walked thirteen
men . . . and the opposing team
scored no runs ... he struck out
fourteen , . . which brings up Gil
man's strike-out record ... 39 of
them in 23 innings. Bill McKenna
is not a candidate for reelection as
athletic director at Condon. The
boy answering to the name of Roger
Conner, who fought in a prelimin
ary to the "H" club socking party,
wants to don the gloves at the next
gathering of the kind. Plans are be
ing made for an extensive physical
education program, with baseball,
track, and horseshoe pitching on the
menu.
Fence Constructed
Undoubtedly most of the towns
people have noticed the black and
white fence on the curve of the state
highway adjacent to the. school
building, which has been erected, to
protect the lives of the youngsters
playing on the school grounds.
This has been a much needed im
provement for some time. Although
the improvement has been some
time coming, we want to express our
appreciation to the state highway
department for it.
