To See and to Read
Up until now, there has been
nothing said about the school spirit
of the teachers or about the way
they have participated and helped
in making a success of the high
school athletic games. It seems only
appropriate that a few good words
should be circulated around about
this and the good examples they are
setting. If any one is in doubt of this,
let him come to one of the basketball
games; and by casting his eyes
around on the floor he can see at
least three of the teachers right out
among the players, giving encour
agement, and the rest of them in the
audience, where they give their
share of the yelling.
Perhaps this would be a good ex
ample for many of the high school
students to follow.

Ten Years Ago
Heppner's debating team will
journey to Pendleton, where the
negative team will debate. The af
firmative team will stay home to
meet Mac-Hi.
Five Years Ago The junior class
play, "Seventeen," is being shown
for the last time tonight. . .. Hepp
ner defeated the lone basketball
squad, 25-20, last night. Heppner
plays Adams here February 17.
One Year Ago Mrs. Clark is add
ed to the faculty. . . . Arlington de
feated Heppner, 31-19, last Friday
night. . . The Pep club gave their
annual assembly, with the seniors
winning in the yelling contest. . . An
epidemic of colds is sweeping thru
the school.

PINTO-POINTS
Again, as last year, the District 13
basketball tournament goes to Ar
lington . . . the dates set for the
meet of champions are March 11 and
12 . . . the referee of all games will
be Emile Piluso, renowned arbiter
of college tilts . . . Heppner could
have had the tournament, but this
city's past record for supporting
such basketball get-togethers was
one that did not merit its being
awarded another ... a meet of this
nature, the district tournament be
ing second largest only to the state
tournament, brings to the host city
squads from a most spacious terri
tory . . . with these basketball teams
journey the home town rooters, who
come to be entertained, and very
seldom do they travel with the ac
companiment of a flat pocket book,
especially with the recreational ex
pectations of basketball in mind . . .
all in all, the business houses profit
as well as the school . . . such will
be the case at Arlington in the sec
ond week of March.
Of the backboard ... A school
having an enrollment exceeding 150
is considered of class "A" ranking
and must compete in tournaments
with schools of similar nature . . .
Hermiston is now officially one of
that ranking . . . the complaint that
the Bulldog institution had over 150
students made the powers that be
sit up and take notice, for Hermiston
is now in the same district as Pen
dleton, Mac-Hi, The Dalles and
Hood River. Arlington used the
"sleeper play," one that consists of
a long pass to a man under the bas
ket, resulting as a general rule in
two points, more effectively than
any team seen yet this season . . .
the Honkers are also masters of the
whirl shot, a good scoring threat that
is very difficult to guard. Players
still push each other around in en
deavoring to be sure they are facing
their own basket on a jump ball . . .
according to the new rules, no par
ticular facing is required. An amus
ing incident occurred Saturday night
in connection with the McLaughlin
game ... a Pioneer reserve, one
Mr. Nelson by name, had been com
plaining, in a friendly sort of way, to
Coach Fox that he didn't get to play
enough . . . the Mac-Hi second string
was to open the game, and just be
fore the referee's starting whislte,
the Pioneer mentor notified the Nel
son lad he was acting captain . . .
that just about got the best of the
startled second stringer ... in fact,
he was so dumbfounded he hardly
knew what to do during the game.
During the summer, Frank O'Neill,
handsome Hermiston coach, was un
der employment of a Tillamook
dairy, driving a shiny, new white
milk truck for this concern ... on
his route, which happened to cover
several coast towns, including Rock
away, were several store clerks of
the so-called "weaker sex" ... a
question, the answer to which they
had long been seeking, was whether
or not he was married . . . later in
formation revealed, much to the dis
appointment of his feminine ad
mirers, that he was. Students this
year are more and more availing
themselves of the opportunity of
making the best use of the gymna
sium at all possible times . . . when
not being occupied by the class and
club teams, it is well filled by free
lancers who have inclinations along
the basketball line, whether they
possess championship form or not.
Almost everyone had the general
impression that the freshmen were
more than eager to defeat the se
niors for the intramural champion
ship, but their anxiety was underes
timated . . . one freshman voiced the
opinion that he'd rather win the se
nior game than a big game like the
one with Mac-Hi. Sponsored by the
"H" club, the picture, "Basketball
and Its Forms," shown last Monday
evening at the local gymnasium was,
without a doubt one of the finest of
its kind ever produced . . . there was
just about as much basketball pack
ed into that hour and a half of
reeled entertainment as one sees
during an entire season. The locals
have won five games and lost seven,
not an outstanding record but far
from one of the opposite nature . . .
to run in most regular order' to draw
to run in most regula order to draw
crowds of any size to future games
. . . Heppner doesn't win all the time,
no team can do that, but they do
fight and try to take victories; yet,
practically any estimate as to the
number in attendance at Saturday's
game would be entirely too liberal.
Within the near future, an an
nouncement will be made public that
will startle basketball fans of one
sector and upset the same of another
with a force equal to the explosion
of a powder train!

It surely isn't over weight"

State Druggists Assist
Pharmacy Students
Corvallis Oregon druggists have
made it financially possible for many
students of the school of pharmacy
at Oregon State college to complete
their courses during the past 12 years
by maintaining a loan fund from
which needy pharmacy students may
borrow. During the 12 years since
it was started, a total of $11,425 has
been contributed, from which 110
loans, averaging $87.31 each, have
been made to students. Not a single
loss has ever been incurred through
failure of a student to repay a loan.
The plan was inaugurated by John
F. Allen, Corvallis druggist, and a
'95 graduate of OSC, who is treasurer
of the board of trustees through
which the educational fund is han
dled. Other officers are S. A. Mat
thieu, Portland, president; Adolph
Ziefle, dean of the school of pharma
cy, secretary, and A. S. Kier and L.
S. Stovall, who are president and
secretary, respectively, of the Ore
gon State Pharmaceutical associa
tion. Henry Smouse came to town on
