PINTO-POINTS
The sports double-header today
between Heppner and Hermiston on
the local athletic grounds offers
something new in competitive enter
tainment for Heppner sport fans . . .
this sports feature, which will be
inaugurated here, is that of tennis
. . . Heppner hasn't had a tennis
team since 1917, but with the recent
construction of two hard-surfaced
? courts, which resulted in a surpris
ing interest in tennis, both grade and
high school, A. H. Blankenship con
sented to instruct a Mustang net
squad . . . the team has tied one
match, that with Pendleton, and lost
one to Hermiston ... the inexper
ience of the local players, three
freshmen, a junior, and two seniors,
perhaps accounts for the none-too-
Heppner
remarkable record thus far this sea
son, but a win over Hermiston, the
predicted Umatilla county champion,
will give Heppner an upset victory.
The other half of the double-header
is a baseball game between Hepp
ner and the Bulldogs . . . some are
rather' fearful of this game's out
come, especially if the errors total
up as they did in the last game at
Hermiston . . . the final score was
25 to 2, with Heppner sadly claim
ing the latter figure.
Last week Coach, Knox gave his
physical education students one of
the stiffest tests possible when he
gave the boys in his gym classes an
order, as an examination of physical
condition and endurance, to take
ten laps around the track at the
rodeo grounds, to be completed in
41 minutes . . . each lap is a distance
of one-fourth mile, and ten such
trips make a total of two and a half
miles . . . some of the fellows kept
up a consistent pace for the entire
two and a half miles, jogging along
at a dog trot, some even sprinting
the last lap . . . others couldn't keep
up a trot; some couldn't even pro
duce a fast walk . . . the best part of
the show was the after-effects ...
some of the speedier lads paid for
their flashy demonstration, for as
soon as they finished, they were
practically forced to take advantage
of the opportunity to rest their
weakened anatomy ... it was all
some could do to walk back to the
gym . . . after the distance men
reached the gym, they sat down on
the first stable object that came in
sight, and there was no moving them
until they felt physically able to
head for the showers . . . one boy
thought he would demonstrate his
reserve strength and chin himself
on an overhead bar ... it took two
attempts to raise his chin to the
level of the bar . . . after he suc
ceeded, he called it quits and gently
eased himself against the wall for a
longer rest.
Quoting an item carried by Dick
Jones' sport column in last Satur
day's East Oregonian: "Note to
coaches at Oregon and Eastern Ore
gon Normal: Ellwynne E. Peck, Lex
ington, and La Verne Van Marter,
Heppner, recently awarded scholar
ships to the university, are, respec
tively, track and basketball stars."
The paragraph then expressed the
abilities of two other lads who were
granted scholarships to the La
Grande normal. However, in con
nection with the two previously
mentioned Morrow county athletes,
Peck and Van Marter, especially the
latter, are undoubtedly outstanding
track and basketball men, but their
ability in football far exceeds any
thing they have ever shown in either
track or basketball . . . playing with
Lexington's six-man football team
last fall, Peck displayed some real
football talent in his ball carrying
and blocking, while Van Marter, who
captained Heppner's gridiron eleven,
led his team to several victories with
his 195 pounds smashing forward
walls of many eastern Oregon foot
ball teams ... in fact Van Marter
is considered of such football calibre
that John Warren, University of Or
egon frosh coach, called on him
some time ago in connection with his
playing football with the Webfoot
freshman squad next falL

Track Team Fourth at Condon
The Heppner track team took part
in the track meet held in Condon
last Saturday. The boys did very
well, placing fourth. Guy Moore
placed first in the broad jump and
second in the two-twenty. Arthur
Vance was fourth in the high jump
and third in the half-mile. Bill Blake
ran fourth in the mile. Scores of the
top four teams were as follows: Con
don 51, Arlington 50, Wasco 13 and
Heppner 12.

Vacation Nears
As vacation nears and school is
nearly out, many students forget
their sole purpose of going to school
and start slackening up on their
work. Semester examinations will be
given next Tuesday and Wednesday,
and until then we had better not
forget what our books are used for.
The seniors, above all, should take
all precaution in their work. They
not only have to worry about per
haps not graduating but also since
this is their last year in school, about
leaving with a clean slate and a good
name.

Humor
Some people have all the luck.
We know a fellow who was born
with a silver spoon in his mouth,
and now he has a gold plate there.
It is rumored that Kemp Dick has
written to Washington, outlining
his latest scheme for spending Gov
ernment money. He suggests cov
ered roadways be constructed in all
sections where there are heavy
snowfalls by merely roofing across
from billboard to billboard.
Matrimony says, "I do" Alimony
says, "I due."
Dictators are great humorists
they can gag a whole population.
The European dove of peace seems
to be reposing in a machine gun
nest.
