Model T Derby Makes
Debut in Heppner
A large crowd enjoyed Heppner's
first Model T derby at Rodeo
grounds Sunday afternoon, which,
though devoid of spills, contained
many thrills as six drivers vied for
supremacy of the track. Some out
side entries who had been signed
failed to come due to Saturday
evening rains in their sections and
threatening rain here that omened
postponement of the event.
It was a sunshiny day and the
track was in good condition except
at the curve in front of the band
stand where the cars dug out a big
rut and gave drivers plenty of dif
ficulty in regotiating the curve.
Jim Lyons of John Day, driving
for Ferguson Motor company, took
the main racing event. As No. 2 he
early passed Jim Shoun, local boy,
driving No. 1, then picked up No. 6
to maintain the lead throughout.
Shoun stayed in second place until
near the final lap when he had to
pull out for repairs, letting Jim
Benefield of Walla Walla, ' Braden-
Bell driver, take second, and Les
Parsons, Lewiston, Idaho, in third
finish place. Two balloon races and
presentation of the new Ford V-8
were other features. Herb Martin
of Walla Walla promoted the event
under sponsorship of Heppner post,
American Legion.

ers who intend seeding winter wheat
and are considering crop insurance
should make application at the Mor
row County Agricultural conserva

Heppner friends of the family was
that of Dr. Joseph Roberts, who
took as his bride Miss Cathryn Col
lins at Saturday nuptials in Portland.

and spent several years of his child
hood here, being the son of Mr. and

church. Mrs. Roberts is the daugh

and Henry W. Collins, formerly of
Pendleton. After a wedding trip, Dr.
and' Mrs. Roberts will be at home

GUARANTORS TAKE OVER
Continued from First Page
directors had signed personally, and
a hauling bill of $60 to Russell
Wright for bringing poles for the
corral out of the Ellis ranger sta
tion district.
After hearing the financial report,
and shouldering the deficit which
was termed "easy enough in view
of the run-in with Turtles and gen
eral conditions," all present voted
unanimously that the show go
ahead for another year.
When it was revealed, however.
that President Aiken considered
seven years long enough service for
one man, and several directors ex
pressed desire to retire from ser
vice, it was thought best to 'delay
next years organization for two
weeks. The meeting to elect direct
ors and perfect organization for
next year was announced by Presi
dent Aiken to be held Monday eve
ning, October 23, at the Elks club.
Sentiment of those present was that
everyone interested in Rodeo, and
Heppner business men in particular,
must attend the 23rd meeting if a
show is to be held next year. Prob
ability of having to start with new
officers makes careful planning nec
essary, it was believed.
In expressing his desire to retire
from service, President Aiken said
it had been a pleasure to serve, and
that he had no ill-will toward any
one. He said that he could not carry
on without personal sacrifice, how
ever, and thought he had done his
share. In retiring from leadership,
he did not intend to quit Rodeo. "I
will do everything in my power to
aid my successor," he said.

1939 show follows:
