State Inspector Visits
D. A Emerson, assistant state su
perintendent of public instruction,
inspected the entire school system
during his visit here Wednesday. He
commented very favorably on the
several changes and renovations
made during the year, namely the
new lunch hall, the lighting improve
ments, the new F. F. A. building,
and rearrangements in the library
and domestic science room. He
seemed to be pleased with the gen
eral staff and complimented the
maintenance of the buildings.
He regarded compulsory typing for
freshmen a practical measure taken
by few schools. Required public
speaking is also a novelty to most
school systems, but has been sug
gested in the state course of study
for next year.
Marimba Xylophone Program Given
On Wednesday, Dec. 1, Roy Gray
bill of California presented a most
entertaining program before the
student body and eighth grade. Mr.
Graybill first explained the struc
ture of the marimba xylophone and
then presented an entertaining pro
gram of old melodies. Of special in
terest was the playing of two pieces
in three tempos.

GAS HOUSE GOSSIP
By JOE AIKEN
This week the casaba season open
ed officially for Heppner as they
met lone Monday and will meet Fos
sil this Friday. lone had played two
games previous to the game with
Heppner. Both of these games were
lost to Arlington.
Many wonder why the basketball
schedule is not more complete. The
schedule has fourteen games and
includes a league play-off, besides
the sub-district tournament, which
will mean plenty of basketball be
fore the season is over. However, in
past years, we have had as many as
twenty games, besides the sub-district
tournament. '
This year it is our hope that the
spectators will be watching the
game from the gym floor.
This may sound impossible, but it
is still probable as the mental work
has already been completed. An es
timate upon the cost has not yet
been made; but if the cost isn't too
great, the building will start after
Christmas. The labor is to be fur
nished by the local F. F. A. chapter.
It is the purpose of these bleachers
to give the spetators a better view
and in turn get bigger turn-outs for
the games.
Anyone knows that the support
that is given to student body activ
ities isn't nearly what it should be
for the size of this town. The school
puts forth its best efforts and gives
you a winning team, yet we have no
support. What is wrong? Is it we
or you.
Any suggestions would gladly be
accepted, and if you think there is
something wrong with us, whatever
the case, we would like to know and
would appreciate any change that
would be possible.
Here and Yon
This year there is going to be a
finger bowl game in Texas. Two six
man teams will play in the first
game of this kind in history.
Upon sending in a substitute this
year, it is necessary for the players
to exchange jerseys. The new play
ers must inform the officials of the
change.
Coach Irvin of E. O. N. invites the
H. H. S. basketbal squad and fac
ulty to attend his games this year.
To all those who hold season tick
ets: These tickets are transferable,
and anyone presenting them at the
ticket booth will be admitted to the
games.
Student Body Votes on Amendments
Last Friday the third student body
meeting was held. A big surprise was
given to everyone when Bob Scriv-
ner, legal advisor, read a summons
to Bill Barratt, to the effect that
the student body is being sued by
Ruth Green, trustee of the Last Will
and Testament of the Senior Class
of 1938, for the sum of $1.00.
Written votes were taken on the
amendments concerning the student
body tax and parliamentary pro
cedure, but a revote must be taken
as the ballot box was "stuffed."
Two new amendments were pro
posed. One was to repeal the Article
5 of section 2 of the constitution,
which states that a club activity cup
be presented to the club most active
during the year. The second is to be
added to Article 2, Section 3, and
states that the student council be
empowered at the beginning of the
year to appoint a song leader who
will serve the full year.
Dub Aiken made the motion that
$3.50 be appropriated for a new
printing press. The assembly voted
unanimously in favor of it.
After the official business was all
taken care of, Mr. Knox presented
letters to the twenty-one boys who
earned them during the football sea
son. Following this, the Girls' league
held their White Elephant sale with
Bob Runnion as auctioneer. This sale
was very successful, with $5.65 be
ing cleared.
Peering Into the Past
One Year Ago . . . The sophomores
defeated the freshmen in an inter
class basketball game.
Five Years Ago . . . The Heppner
basketball squad defeated the lone
squad on the local floor, 30 to 21.
Ten Years Ago . . . The seniors
and freshmen debated the question:
"Resolved that Heppner high school
should publish an annual." The se
niors, who upheld the negative, won
the debate. ' ,
F.F.A. to Hold Banquet
sponsibilities better,
a parent and son banquet December
10, at 6:30 p. m. It is to be held in
the lunch room of the school house.
The Home Ec club is cooperating
with the F. F. A. by cooking and
preparing the food. The officers are
planning to hold several meetings
for the purpose of learning their re
responsibilities better.
.
Humor
Norma Prock: "Why, Don, what's
the matter?"
Don Jones (coming down the hall
looking very disappointed): "I got
gyp't on that White Elephant sale."
Norma: "How did you get gyp't."
Don: "I came up here under the
impression that I could get a date
with every package."
Joe Aiken: "When I take a girl
riding in a taxi in the city, I never
let the mounting fare bother me."
Emery Coxen: "Ah, mind over
meter, eh?"
Hugh Crawford: "If you go home
at this late hour, will there be a
light burning for you?"
Donnie Bennett: "Yes, my mother
doesn't like to lick me in the dark."
With a wild yell he sprang behind
a chair, threw it madly to one side
and then flung himself under a ta
ble. For several minutes he lay
there, wiggling and squirming Then
he dragged himself out, hitting his
head on the bottom of the table, and
cursing furiously, dashed across the
room and dived over a divan. After
a minute he crawled from behind it
and stood up. "These danged ping
pong balls sure are the devil to
catch," he muttered.
