All Stars Down Mustangs
A quintet of former Heppner high
basketball stars defeated the Mus
tangs, 47-32, in a wild basketball
game last Thursday afternoon be
fore Christmas. The all-stars shot
ahead to an early lead on long shots.
They all seemed to have an unoanny

"H" Club to Hold Dance
The meeting of the "H" club was
called to order Thursday, Dec. 22,
by the president, Harold Armstrong,
for the purpose of adopting a new
constitution. In order that the mem
bers might vote intelligently on it,
the president read the constitution,
article by article, and it was voted
, on that way.
The constitution was adopted as
it stood, with the exception of Ar
ticle V. A fifth section was added,
which stated that the "H" club would
give $6.50 toward a sweater to any
member who had won a letter in any
major sport for three years.
In the form of new business, a
motion was made and seconded that
the "H" club sponsor a dance after
the Arlington basketball game. This
was passed by a large majority.
The president appointed a com
mittee for the purpose of seeing
what could j,be done on that line.
Some non-"H" club business was
brought up and declared out of or
der, after which the meeting was ad
journed. Exams
It has come to pass that we will
meet our greatest foe next week,
"Semester Exams." Many students
have put off from day to day the
work they 'should have done. But
any place, 'anywhere, 'everyone has
a reckoning day. Many students
need to change .their motto, "Never
do today what you can do tomor
row" to "Never put off anything
you can do today." So during the
coming semester tests, let's study,
and surprise our teachers.

GAS HOUSE GOSSIP
By JOE AIKEN
The local sports front offered lit
tle for the public in general; how
ever, the different bowl games re
served most of the interest.
The alumni scheduled games with
lone and Lex, in which they emerged
the victors. Most of the alumni at
tend colleges in Oregon as follows:
Gilman, Pacific; Van Marter, U. of
0.; Cox, O. S. C; Green, U. of O.;
Turner, U. of O.
Tiger Nickerson, top boxer in his
division at the U. of O., worked out
in the gym with McMurdo, a stu
dent of OSC, during the vacation.
A glimpse of the local casaba team
they worked out lightly several
times in the last week. Last Monday
a scrimmage session was held under
the supervision of Coach Knox,
Practice ws started in earnest Tues
day to prepare for the tilt with Ar
lington at Arlington next Staurday.
This will be the second league game
in which Heppner will be a partici
pant. Heppner has played one lea
gue game, while all the others have
had at least two. This, however,
doesn't mean that we are not wor
thy our present position, the top of
the league ladder, but since we have
a victory over Fossil, and Fossil has
beaten Arlington and Condon, it
should make us about the best as
far as prognostication goes, which
isn't what it is cracked up to be.
In the lower division of the lea
gue, Irrigon seems to have jumped
to an early lead and held it, although
Umatilla has been giving them a
close race for their place. It makes
it almost impossible to predict any
winner as yet, but time is the best
solution, and patience will see the
result.
There has been talk about organ
izing a city league, such as was or
ganized for the soft ball league this
last spring. This would be possible
if action was taken some time in the
near future. It would not only pro
vide excellent amusement but would
be a civic movement toward some
physical activity for men. As there
is no such field of sport in Heppner,
it would be greatly enjoyed and
would be an opportunity to receive
exercise other than in the morning
rising.
These leagues have been organized
in various other towns and could
be carried out to a great extent in
this town.
Here and Yon
The plans have been layed upon
the table for the "H" club smaker
with Hermiston in the near future.
Those high school students inter
ested can get full particulars from
Harold Armstrong.
Jack Morton won a first string let
ter from the Newberg high school.
This was his first year at football.
He states he likes it very much.
The Condon F. F. A. lads are still
training for the Heppner smoker.
For their training program they run
one mile before breakfast and box
from seven to eight-thirty in the
evening.
Girls' League Holds Meeting
The Girls' League held a meeting
Thursday, December 22. The busi
ness part of this meeting was to de
cide whether they should donate
five dollars to Father Flanagan or
buy new presents and give them to
those grade school students who
would be apt to receive little. The
girls finally decided to buy presents
for the grade school students.
The first grade girls entertained
the Girls' League by putting on a
short skit, which was very enter
taining. Following this, each girl
answered roll call with the present
she should like most to receive for
Christmas. Also "to get into the
Christmas spirit, the girls sang car
ols for the remainder of the time.
Christmas Assembly
Friday afternoon Santa Claus
made an early visit for the benefit
of the student body. He distributed
presents, oranges, candv. and read
a few -of the interesting letters he
had received, much to the embar
rassment of some of those present.
Santa Claus was impersonated bv
Harold Armstrong.
Also in the spirit of Christmas.
presentations were made to Mr.
Knox, a beautiful sjocky satin jacket,
on behalf of the football squad, as a
token of their appreciation of his
efforts in making a championship
Gazette Times, Heppner,
football team. Mr. Peacy, Miss Smith
and Miss Nordstrom were presented
with gifts for their help in making
the operetta a success.
' Several of the alumni were called
upon for short speeches; then with
the singing of- Christmas carols,
school was dismissed for the year
of 1938.

During vacation many events of
Oregon
interest to the younger set were
taking place. On Christmas eve the
annual Christmas ball was held at
the Elks' hall, with the high school
and college set very much in evi
dence with their "shagging," "truck
ing," "Lambeth Walk," etc.
On Monday a dance was held at
Echo with several of the high school
students attending. On Wednesday
another dance was held at lone, and
finally to "top it all off' came the
great New Year's ball at the Elks.
At the stroke of midnight confetti,
serpentine, paper hats were flying
around, and shouts of Happy New
Year were ringing in everyone's
ears. This dance was, of course, well
attended by the younger set.
Various students of Heppner high
spent their Christmas vacation out
of town. These included Helen Egan,
who spent a very enjoyable week
end in Condon; Billy Barratt, who
spent it visiting with his grand
mother in Portland, and Willie Stone,
who spent part of the vacation vis
iting in Pilot Rock and Pendleton
with friends.
Work Starts on OSC
Ag Engineering Plant
Oregon State College Reconstruc
tion of the agricultural engineering
building at Oregon State college has
commenced following the recent
awarding of a contract to the Dou
gan - Hammand company of Port
land. ,
Increased construction costs in re
cent months made it necessary to
eliminate certain features of the en
larged building as planned, although
use of the PWA grant will make it
possible to add one wing to the pres
ent structure and to improve on the
former structural standards.
Because of lack of facilities this
winter, the usual farm tractor short
course conducted by the agricultural
engineering department has been
cancelled, but will doubtless be held
again next winter.
