Students Attend Conference
Eleven Heppner high school stu
dents helped to make up the one
hundred and fifty-five representa
tives of 21 high schools of Umatilla,
Morrow, Grant, Baker, Union and
Wallowa counties at the second an
nual student conference, Friday, Dec.
9, to which Pendleton was host.
The morning's program consisted
of interclass debate by Pendleton
high school students. Following reg
istration in the afternoon, the regu
lar sessions of the conference were
held at the Vert Little theater, with
Marion Hughes, Pendleton student
body president, presiding. This was
followed by a dinner at the high
school cafeteria. Events for the eve
ning included the Hermiston-Pen-dleton
basketball game and an all
school "mixer" dance, at which del
egates were guests.
Discussions were held on topics of
particular interest to high school
students, such as athletics, music,
journalism, dramatics, and social ac
tivities. Heppner and La Grande
were assigned to lead the music dis
cussions in connection with their
championship bands. Delegates from
other schools were found ready and
willing to rise and explain solutions
to various problems which they had
encountered and offered these so
lutions for the benefit of those
schools whose problems remain to
be solved. Typical discussions rang
ed from the arousal of student inter
est in the activities to gaining pub
lic cooperation, including novel
methods for advertising and carry
ing out activities. Delegates from
Heppner high school included Shir
ley Wilson, Harold Armstrong, Rich
ard Hayes, Jeanette Blakely, Doro
thy Howell, Kemp Dick, Bud Blake
ly, Dick Bogoger, John Crawford,
Omer McCaleb and Bill Barratt.
Student Participation in Basketball
Games
The students of this school have
a very poor cooperative spirit. They
sit in the assembly hall and listen
to the announcements about the
coming game, and as they listen they
say to themselves, "I'm going to
that," but five minutes later they've
forgotten about it.
Of course, all the students can't
go to the games out of town, but the
home games should bring them out
in full force.
At the last game and the game be
fore it, there were about twenty stu
dents, out of a possible fifty or sixty
that could come.
There have been pep talks, pep
assemblies, and every other sort of
thing that could be thought of h&s
been tried, but the students do not
seem to know what is being said or
done.
The members of the Pep club, or
any other group that is trying to get
the students aroused enough to at
tend the games, should stay up
nights if necessary in order to think
of something that will bring out the
basketball fans in force.

GAS HOUSE GOSSIP
By JOE AIKEN
In the Fossil game the locals start
ed off with an early bid for points
after the first few minutes of play,
when Coxen broke in for the first
two points. The Mustangs led for
the first half, two points ahead. But
after the third quarter, the Falcons
evened up the score, and it looked
like a tie game. But Coxen sank two
more tallies with O'Donnell adding
another basket. Prindel tallied with
a basket seconds before the final
whistle. The total score, 28 to 25,
alone speaks for itself. Those who
Tailed to attend missed the game of
the year so far, and it is an even
guess that such a game will not be
witnessed in a long time.
The "B" squad game proved to be,
more or less, a set up, as the local
squad took their invaders with com
parative ease.
With two good wins upon the score
sheet, Heppner goes to Hermiston
Dec. 17, to meet them in the annual
battle of a home-and-home series.
They meet Hermiston at an advant
age as Hermiston has lost several
games thus far in the season. Her
miston lost valuable men when Ran
kin, Keller and Marble graduated
last spring.
Heppner has won two games out of
two played, which gives them a
thousand per cent for the season
so far.
Upon the following Monday, the
locals will still be on the road when
they meet Pendleton upon Pendta
ton's home court. This is the first
game in four years between Hepp
ner and Pendleton. The game is be
tween the Heppner "A" squad and
the Pendleton "B" squad in the ju
nior high gymnasium.
Two wins puts the local team in
the upper bracket with Arlington,
who won from Condon in the "A"
league. Condon, Fossil, Arlington
and Heppner make up the "A" lea
gue. In the a league, Irngon,
Lexington, and Umatilla. The winner
from each league wil play a game
to decide the champion of the U. C.
A. L. From almost a pre-season pre
diction it looks best for Irrigon in
the "B" and Heppner in the "A."
Last week the football lads re
ceived their letters, twenty boys in
all, (not counting the manager, of
course) ten of them seniors. This
leaves the team without two guards,
one tackle, a center, quarterback,
halfback, fullback, and end. For a
drawing card there will be a regu
lar boxing bout each evening be
tween halves and between games
This may prove to be interesting as
it goes along.
Here and Yon
Gerald Keller, the all-star bas
ketbal player from Hermiston, is on
the Pacific university traveling
squad.
Howard Patton, the lad who leads
the boxing team, has recovered from
a broken hand and has been working
out lightly.
The local F. F. A. chapter invested
in a punching bag for the chapter's
boxing team. The clattering heard in
the gym basement is the bag being
used.
It is rumored that the Condon F.
F. A. boxing team is set for the
match with Heppner, as they have
been training steadily for two
months.
