Mustangs Lose To Adams' Warriors Fresh from its smarting defeat at the hands of the strong Athena squad, district defending champions, the Adams hoopsters, led by cagey Pete Hodgen, trimmed Heppner's veteran-depleted basektball team by the rousing score of 37 to 22, in the second home . game of the season for the locals last Friday. Screening and lob passing with deadly effectiveness, the visiting Warriors, playing a seemingly im penetarable defense and a fast breaking offense- took an early first quarter lead, after a tie at four all, that was approached only a few min utes later when' Aiken brought the score up to within a basket of Ad ams' eight points. Hodgen, Adams guard and the last of a family boast ing an elongated line of outstanding athletes, sank a field goal just before 3 ITO V 1 Speed with Safety Connor Economy TRAVEL COSTS TO fa m:tlnuic and ,. iM.rC.acb-K- Porter SerA. 3. rioos P Standard .

In command of a 17 to 10 advan tage at half time, Adams, paced by the scoring combination of Hodgen, Doan and Morrisette, opened up with a third quarter offensive that netted eleven tallies. In the last quarter, Heppner, whose line-up was changed considerably, containing a mixed team of substitutes and regulars, clicked better as a unit than did the complete first string. The momentary last quarter scor ing spree of Heppner was offset al most entirely by the extremely close checking of the Adams five, which was one of the mainstays of their overwhelming victory over Heppner.
