Events of the Past
One Year Ago The varsity team
of Heppner high school basketball
squad defeated the town team 45-38
in the main game of last Friday
night's sports performance; while
the H. H. S. seconds lost to the Camp
Heppner team to the tune of 35-14.
. . . The Heppner school band se
lected the musical numbers which it
is going to play in the state cnotest
to be held at Corvallis some time in
April. . . . The H. H. S. Mustangs
overcame another obstacle in their
march for basketball honors by de
feating the supposedly unstoppable
Boardman auintet by a score of
30-23.
Five Years Ago Mr. Robert Tur
ner, who has just recently returned
to this country from Japan, spoke to
the student body about his travels
in the Orient. . . . Local basket toss
ers lost to the flashy Lexington Hi
hoopsters 32-28 last Saturday night.
The following Tuesday the squad
motored to Umatilla and returned
with a well-earned 20-13 victory
over the Vikings.
Ten Years Ago The Arlington
Honkers snatched the fruits of vic
tory from the Fighting Irish of Hepp
ner in the last period of a thrilling
battle. The final count was 15-13. . . .
During the Christmas holidays, the
high school library was moved from
the main building to its new room in
the recently-completed gymnasium.
. . . The girls' basketball team of H.
H. S. defeated the women's town
team by a 14-8 score. The town team
women were decidedly handicapped
by lack of practice; however, the
score does not indicate the true form
of the older ferns, as all of their
tallies were gathered the hard way.

Yum! Yum!
A week ago Tuesday the basket
ball boys journeyed to the Barratt
ranch to take part in a well man
aged turkey dinner, which was given
to the local players because they
had beaten the Grant Union team
and provided many thrills for the
crowd. Van Marter and Aiken were
victims of practical jokes launched
by Mrs. Barratt and Mr. Knox.
After the dinner, the boys who
could walk with such a full stomach
were rushed to town and treated to
a show by Dave Wilson. All of the
players wish to thank Mrs. Barratt
and Mr. Wilson for their fine enter
tainment.
H.H.S.
Support the Annual
It was decided by the student
council to have a school annual this
year. In previous years we have had
just a memory book, which has
taken the place of the school annual,
The staff is composed of members of
the different classes, mostly juniors
Heppner
and seniors. These students have a
large responsibility, but with the
support of everey member of the
student body, we can make this an
nual a success. .

PINTO-POINTS
Basketball does have its rewards,-
in more ways than one ... Hepp
ner's victory over Grant Union in a
nerve-wracking over-time period
called for a celebration, a double
one . . . Mrs. Garnet Borratt, whose
eldest offspring is a member of the
basketball team, entertained the
boys with a turkey feed, and Dave
Wilson, local merchant and owner
of a men's clothing store at John
Day, home town of the Grant Union
hoopsters, and the sports-minded
citizen who so graciously sponsored
the advertisement in connection with
that game, topped the bird feast by
purchasing for each squad member
a ticket of admission to last Tues
day night's theater attraction. Any
one who wants to take in a rough
house basketball game may do so
by wandering over to the gymnasium
around 2 o'clock on the afternoon of

Seniors Win
In the second of a series of casaba
Gazette Times, Heppner,
contests, the senior class five eked
out a 23-21 victory over the junior
class quintet on the high school ma
ple court last Thursday afternoon.
The senior hoopmen got off to a
fast start and held a 10-0 advantage
at the end of the first period. The
score at halftime stood 14-7. The sec
ond half was decidedly ' rougher.
Plavers on both sides committed
fouls right and left, intentional and
unintentional, which resulted in the
discharging of two men. With one
minute to go, the score was knotted
at nineteen all. The senior hoopsters
sank two field goals in quick suc
cession to put the game on ice while
holding their opponents to one bas
ket.

CAMP HEPPNER NEWS
A group of about 25 enrollees of
Camp Hepnper are now under the
supervision of Morrow county's sher
iff, Clarence Bauman. This supervis
ion, however, is not from the strong
arm of the law, but that of the edu
cated brawn of boxer and wrestler
Bauman who, with Rangeman Wood-
row Morris, camp recreational di
rector, is conducting classes in box
ing and wrestling. With two classes
a week in a regulation ring in tne
county pavilion, Sheriff Bauman and
Mr. Morris believe some of the boy's
will be in shape soon to participate
in regular smokers. In the meantime,
plans call, for a tournament to se
lect a champion from each of the two
classes in which enrollees are now
learning the law of besting fellow
opponents in boxing and wrestling.
The writing on the hill spells
"Camp Heppner, Co. 297, C. C. C."
and it is readily visible for miles
around. It is not a neon or an elec
trical sign, but it is plain lettering,
arranged of rocks painted a cream
color, pointing out for persons in
terested the exact location of Camp
Heppner among the vast area of roll
ing hills. Enrollees Peter Ratolo and
Joseph Accuno were the letterers
and Robert Strausbough and Sam
Leone the painters of this sign on
the hill.
Four tickets of admission to the
Star theater in Heppner and a one
dollar canteen book are the awards
sought in a pool tournament in
which all of the enrollees of Camp
Heppner are now competing. The
tournament as scheduled gives each
man a chance to show his skill among
the fellow men of his barracks, the
winner of each barracks receiving
a ticket of admission to the local
theater. These ticket winners will
then play the finale, and the grand
champion of Co. 297 will be the win
ner of the canteen book.
Harold Anderson was in the city
yesterday from the farm in Goose
berry. He reported snow there yes
terday morning, falling much as it
did at Heppner.
