SOFT BALL LEAGUE STARTS MONDAY;
SQUADS AND SCHEDULE GIVEN
Fifty-three townsmen are set to
compete for the softball honors in
Heppner. Making up four teams,
they will compete in a tournament,
opening Monday, along with two
CCC teams, over a period ending
May 26. Each of the six teams will
play each other team once, with
games on Monday, Wednesday and
Friday of each week.
Leading the town teams as cap
tains are Logie Richardson, Mark
Merrill, Hubert Gaily and Russell
McNeill. Those playing under each
captain have already been named,
but there is still time for any male
citizen to enlist. It has been agreed
between the captains that new en
listments will be added to squads in
consecutive order so that no squad
will have a chance to enlist "ring
ers. Richard and Gaily squads will
meet in the opening fray next Mon
day. Each player will be assessed
25 cents to help defray cost of equip
ment. Town squads named are as fol

Raymond Dolven
Weds Miss Sharkey
Mrs. C. S. Wheeler of Pendleton,
in town Tuesday with Mr. Wheeler
and her mother, Mrs. B. F. Swag
gart, announced the marriage of
Miss Gloria Maude Sharkey, daugh
' ter of Mr. and Mrs. Wheeler, to Ray
mond Milton Dolven of this city at
the family home in Pendleton at
8:30 Sunday morning. Rev. F. C.
Wissenbach, rector of the Church
of the Holy Redeemer, read the cer
emony before a mantle banked with
greenery and spring flowers.
Mr. Wheeler gave his daughter in
marriage. The bride was attractively
gowned in ensemble of navy sheer
with top of daffodil yellow chiffon,
and corsage of yellow Pernet rose
buds and lilies of the valley.
Wedding breakfast for 12 was
served at Pendleton hotel, and im
mediately following the young cou
ple left for San Francisco to attend
the world's fair on their wedding
trip. A visit at the Wheeler summer
home at Cannon Beach was also
planned before returning to Morrow
county to make their home on the
Swaggart farm north of Lexington,
which they will manage.
Mrs. Dolven is a graduate of Uni
versity -of Oregon and has been
prominent in club work at Pen
Hlpton. Mr. Dolven has been man
aging the Swaggart ranch for three
years.
Hynd Bunk House
Burns; City Responds
Fire of undetermined origin razed
the bunk house on the Hynd broth
ers Sand Hollow farm just at noon
last Friday. The main house, but 40
or 50 feet distant, was seriously
threatened for a time and would
surely have been consumed had it
not been for the gallant work of the
hired men, said David Hynd, secre
tary of the company, when in town
Saturday. Several starts on the
house roof were extinguished thru
formation of a bucket brigade. The
loss was insured.
In answer to an emergeny call
trucks of CCC boys and the chemi
cal equipment o the Heppner fire
department arrived on the scene,
but were too late to be of much as
sistance. Had the main house start
ed to burn, however, this assistance
would have been in time to be of
considerable help, Mr. Hynd be
lieved. J. O. Rasmus, watermaster,
accompanied the city chemical
equipment to the scene of the fire.
Relatives of "prisoners in the state
penitentiary are advised by the pa
role board against the employment
of attorneys to represent the prison
ers in their plea for liberation. The
parole board refuses to listen to at
torneys, according to Cecil Edwards,
secretary to Governor Sprague.
Let's Send Band to
National Contest,
Says Judge Johnson
No more ardent supporter of
the Heppner school band may be
found, with possible exception of
a host of proud parents, than
Judge Bert Johnson.
"Since I went to Eugene with
the band last year, I guess I have
become a bit rabid on the subject,"
said Judeg Johnson. "But I want
the world to know that I think the
band will win the regional contest
at Portland, and I want to see
them go to the national contest,
wherever it may be.
"If they keep working like they
have been, those kids are good
enough to hold their own any
place," the judge avowed.
The judge didn't believe there
would be much difficulty financ
ing the band's trip to Portland.
"That part will be easy," he said.
"But we should start right now
making plans for Chicago, or
wherever the national contest is
to be.
Judge Johnson's sentiment is
typical of that heard on every
hand since the band got its su
perior rating at the eastern Ore
gon meet at La Grande last week
end.
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to extend our sincere
thanks to the CCC boys and offi
cers. to the Heppner fire depart
ment. to the citizens of Heppner for
their response: and especially to

tion of Christian Endeavor this week
end. Included were Misses Kathryn
Parker. Marie Barlow, Lois Jones

ECLIPSE SEEN HERE
Morrow county people who were
abroad at 7:30 yesterday morning
observed a, fading out of the sun as
a 70 percent eclipse took place. Some
of those who were aware of the
eclipse looked at the sun through
darkened glasses and observed the
bite taken out of Old Sol as the
moon passed partially between it
and the earth.
The Baker Record-Courier sug
gests editorially that one of the chief
mechanical defects contributing to
automobile accidents is that the nut
at the wheel gets too tight.

Growers May Enter
National Contest
Wheat farmers of Morrow county
have a chance to gain nationwide
recognition in an acreage compliance
contest sponsored by the Eastern
Oregon Wheat league, according to
information received by E. H. Miller,
chairman of the Morrow county con
servation committee.
The contest provides that counties
having the best record of compliance
with their 1939 wheat acreage allot
ments will receive distinctive awards,
and in addition a representative of
the winning county will receive a
free trip to the wheat league's 1939
convention at Condon in December.
The winning county's record will
be recognized through award of a
glass globe filled with select Oregon
wheat, mounted on a base of Oregon
myrtle wood. The globe is symbolic
of the nation's full ever-normal
granary.
In addition, the winning county of
each state will be awarded a plaque
made from select Oregon juniper
wood and inscribed with the coun
ty's compliance record.
A total of 938 counties througout
the United States, each having a
wheat acreage allotment of more

than 10,000 acres, have been invited
to participate. The contest closes
August 15.
Each county's record will be judg
ed two-thirds upon the percentage
of its wheat acreage allotment that
complies with the program, and one
third upon the percentage of farms
having wheat allotments that stay
within their acreage. Compliance
will be based upon farms qualifying
for parity payments in 1939.
The 1939 wheat acreage allotment
for Morrow county, an important
factor in its participation in the
contest, is 93,216 acres.
