Congratulations, Band
The Heppner school band lived up
to expectations again by finishing
in first money at La Grande last
Friday evening. This is the fourth
first place in a row for the Heppner
band.
A brief summary of the band's
achievements in the past might be
timely. In their first contest in 1935,
the band received third place at the
state contest at Eugene.
In the springs of 1936 and 1937 the
band went twice to Corvallis to com
pete in the state band contest. Both
times the band returned with first
place awards in Class D.
Last year the classes of competi
tion of the bands were revised. All
schools with student bodies under
250 were placed in class C. Com
peting in class C for the first time
at Eugene last year, the Heppner
band was the only one to obtain
"superior" rating.
The contest which the band won
last week gives it the privilege of
competing in the regional contest
to be held in Portland the week end
of May 12. This is the same contest
that was held at Seattle last year
and includes schools in Oregon,
Washington, Idaho and Montana.
This series of victories certainly
speaks well for the band. It repre
sents months of hard work on the
part of the band and its director, Mr.
Buhman. The band has grown from
the 25 members who went to the
first contest at Eugene to the almost
60 members that went to La Grande.
All of the publicity received by
the band for their performances has
done much more than any other sin
gle thing in years to put Heppner
high school and the city of Hepp
ner on the map. The band has ob
tained the respect and admiration
of all eastern Oegon and some rec
ognition in the Portland papers. But
the band has done much more good
than help advertise the town. The
band has brought out and developed
the musical talent in many students
who never would have done any
thing in the musical field. It im
proves their appreciation and know
ledge of music. The band has done
much to raise the music mindedness
of the community as a whole.
Newest Fad: Small bright colored
bows worn in the back of the young
ladies' hair.
Newest Expression: "Oh, fap!"
Question Most Asked: "Have you
got your English?"
Subject Most Often Brought Up:
"School will soon be out."
Funniest Scene: Dad Driscoll,
Ruth Green, Mr. Blankenship, Mr.
Peavy all scurrying up stairs and
down stairs looking for the music
the band forgot.
Tennis Matches
Wind and rain called to a halt the
tennis matches with Pilot Rock last
Wednesday, but not before the locals
had won two matches. Hugh Craw
ford defeated his opponent 6-2, 6-3,
and Frances McCarty won from her
opponent 6-1, 6-0.
'
FFA Slate Ring Meet
The city hall ring will be the
scene of leather-slinging Saturday
evening at 8:00 when the Heppner
Future Farmers meet the Arlington
Farmers in a return fistic meet.
The Heppner boys are just recover
ing from a slight bouncing taken at
Arlington last week; however, they
plan to repay their respects, an eye
for an eye.
The finals feature Heppner's Gil-
man and Arlington's LaMance. This
same match resulted in a draw at
Arlington. (Gilman seems to be in
fine condition, having pulled weeds
in the lawn all week in preparation,
or in preference to making up time.)
Williams and Tom Kurtz, Arling
ton, will provide the semi-fnals.
Other bouts scheduled thus far in
clude: Stone and Wayne Jackson,
Hill and Mancel Krebs, Swick and
Bob McKinney. Exhibition matches
will also be scheduled.
Time Trials
The local track squad held time
tryouts to determine the squad that
will go to Mac-Hi this week end.
In the sprints, Guy Moore skipped
the the 100-yard dash in 11 seconds,
and Kemp Dick ran the 440 in 63
flat. Howard Patton heaved the dis
cus 100 feet to make a toss good
enough to take many of the eastern
Oregon meets.
Baseball Saturday
The veteran Heppner baseball
team meets Arlington on the home
diamond at 2 p. m. Saturday. Ar
lington boasts a rather inexperienced
team as they have completely reor
ganized their team from that of last
year. Under the new schedule, this
will be the second game of the three
home game series.

Plans Announced for May Fete

county track meet and music festi
val has been set for Friday, April

visions of Morrow county will gath

on the high school lawn, weather
permitting. A complete progam is to
be announced later.
Student Council Meets
Thursday's student council meet
ing consisted largely of clearing up
minor bills and making arrange
ments for payment of the larger ones.
Prior to the final settlement of the
pending tennis question, there was
brief discussion concerning expected
receipts for the rest of the year. Fu
ture receipts are expected to be suf
ficient to enable appropriation of
$24 to the tennis team for supplies
and transportation, although the re
serve fund set aside at the first of
the year will have to be taxed. Ten
nis was made to resemble a major
sport in that full sized letters will be
given upon recommendation of the
tennis coach.
Open House Friday Night
Friday night is the evening when
all of the students show their work
to their parents. This is known as
open house. This year, as usual, the
parents will be given a chance to
see what is being done in our school.
The procedure will be about the
same as usual, with the parents be
ing shown through the school in the
early part of the evening and the
latter part devoted to a program in
the gym.
The doors of the school house will
open at 7:00. At 8:15 a bell will be
sounded as a signal to go to the gym.
There are many interesting things
slated for the program. Among them
are the following: Round table dis-

Pacific Speakers
The students of Heppner high
school had the privilege of hearing
a group of speakers from Pacific
university a week ago Tuesday. The
program was of a farcical nature
with all serious subjects taboo. The
first speaker talked on the subject,
"I Can Do It Too," which had ref
erence to the way people copy Hol
lywood. Two members of the Pa
cific debate team presented argu
ments on both sides of the subject,
"Should Men Walk on the Paved
Side of Women?" The final speaker
closed the program by proving that
no one knows what he is talking
about.
Light Rays Create New
Varieties by Heredity
Oregon State College That the
X-ray and utlra violet ray consti
tute one of the naturally occurring
mechanisms of evolution was shown
by Dr. Lewis J. Stadler, noted spec
ialist in heredity of the University
of Missouri, who spoke at the an
nual invitation meeting of Sigma
Xi at Oregon State college.
This honor society in scientific re
search initiated 32 new members,
including alumni, faculty, graduate
students, and seniors. ,
Dr. Stadler has shown that many
varieties of plants can be treated
through the influence of special light
rays on heredity which breed true
thereafter. These rays also occur in
nature, he said, and account for
many of the chance sports and mu
tations which occur. Great advance
in the controlled development of
hybrids has occurred in recent years
through the better understanding of
the mechanism of heredity, the sci
entist pointed out.
