Transient Tests
Mails With Coin
By MARGARET BLAKE
One day last summer a transient
visitor in lone insisted on mailing a
silver dollar, to his sister in Indiana,
"just to see if she will ever get it."
Contrary-to the advice of the post
master, Mrs. Ruby Roberts, he pre
pared it for mailing by pasting a
piece of paper (just the size of the
dollar and addressed to his sister)
on one side and the necessary post
age on the other. A few days ago
Mrs. Roberts received a card from
the sender that his sister had re
ceived the dollar, so perhaps he is
now convinced of the honesty of
Uncle Sam's mail messengers.

Heppner Mustangs
Sink Toucher, 50-0
The Heppner high school football
machine started clicking last Friday
when an inspired Mustang rolled up
a score of fifty points to Touchet's
nothing.
Gilman, Merrill and Moore were
outstanding with their long gains on
off-tackle plays and end runs; while
the bullbacks, Hayes and Pettyjohn,
showed their ability to gain through
the middle of the line when a few
yards meant a first down.
Both teams went scoreless the first
period, but Heppner started the sec
ond with a touchdown on a line
plunge by Pettyjohn. A little later
Drake scored on a long pass from
Morgan. Coxen kicked the point.
Later in the same period, Gilman
ran around end for about 30 yards,
another tally. Just before the half-
time whistle, Pettyjohn ran a pass
interception back for the final
touchdown of the first half.
The only score of the third quar-
ter was made on an off-tackle" play
by Bennett, Heppner's small, plucky,
reserve halfback.
In the fourth period, Gilman went
around end twice for two touch
downs, one run being for 60 yards.
Heppner's final score was made on
a run of about 35 yards on a pass
interception by Hayes. Morgan con
verted the extra point on an end run.
The Heppner team showed an im
provement in blocking and tackling
and in pass defense. Touchet fought
