Editorial
Not many of you were there to
even know that the last rally was
very weak and anything but boost
ing to the confidence of the football
team, but maybe they didn't know
there was one; at least, most of the
players didnt come.
If the attendance last Thursday
night was any indication of the
amount of spirit in Heppner high,
we are sadly in need of a shake-up.
A rally is usually a good way to
let the people know that the Hepp
ner team is playing a game the next
day. The rally may account to some
extent for the few people who at
. tended the game Friday.
You can't expect people to be en
thusiastic about a game if the stu
dents aren't, themselves.
Costume Ball Success
Say, what is this? Don't get ex
cited, it's only the Girls' League
dance. Everyone was there in cos
tume. Did you hear that Dorotha
Wilson, in a Scotch lassie outfit, and
Hugh Crawford, in an outstanding
admiral costume, won the first prizes
which consisted of chocolate pump
kins. We don't believe that any. of
you who were there will soon for
get the Girls' League party of Oc
tober 27, 1939.
Junior Assembly
The juniors entertained the stu
dent body last Friday morning with
an excellent program. First was a
skit entitled "United by Love." Fol
lowing this, Jack O'Hara was to
have given a violin solo, but Mr.
Peavy, his accompanist, had his feel
ings hurt and failed to show up, so
we were minus an excellent num
ber. The following part of the pro
gram consisted of impromptu talks
made by four of the sophomores by
way of preparation for Public Speak
ing, next year. As the allotted time
was not quite taken up, the yell
duchess and yell king led us in sev
eral yells. The next assembly will
be given by the FFA on November
10th.
Mustange Play Condon Tomorrow
On Friday, the 3rd, Heppner jour
neys to Condon to play a return
game. Heppner beat Condon, 20-0
in the home game. Judging from nast
experience the boys expect a harder
battle on the other team s home field.
This is the next to the last game of
the season.
Forty Attend C. E. Rally
Ralph NeiU, vice-president of Co
lumbia Union, and Mrs. Warner,

Monday
AT 4tHE
Washington, D. C, Nov. 1. This
has been a very unhappy week for
the 435 members of the house of
representatives or many of them
for on the way they vote on neu
trality legislation depends, in num
erous cases, whether or not they will
be reelected next year. Some are
in accord with the views of their
constituents as expressed in letters,
others are not, and are voting con
trary to the requests in their mail.
Until last Tuesday the house had
not been permitted to legislate on
anything except appropriate money
for the expense of the special ses-
sion.
No committees were permit
ted'to meet. The calendar is filled
with bills which could be disposed
of, but all these were deferred un
til next year. Members were called
to Washington in September and
after hearing the president's mes
sage were prohibited from doing
anything until the neutrality legis
lation had been disposed of in the
senate and sent to the house for
consideration.
It was only after members became
unruly at their idleness that the
administration made a concession;
the house could meet a short time
each day to enable representatives
to make speeches for the Congres
sional Record, and mail these to
their constituents. It was collegians
call a "bull" session; just a gabfest
For the special session each mem
ber will receive mileage at 20 cents
a mile for the round trip. When
the January session comes they will
be entitled to collect mileage for
that. It will average around $1,000
for each member from the west
coast.
Anticipating that congress will
lilt the embargo on munitions, man
ufacturers of bombers and pursuit
planes on the Pacific coast have not
suspended work on filling orders for
Great Britain and France. Scores
of planes have been shipped over
land to the east coast and are ready
to be sent across the Atlantic with
out delay. Under provisions of the
cash and carry" act there is noth
ing to prevent Japan from purchas
ing such war munitions as it can
pay for from the United States, es
pecially if Japan makes a forma!
declaration of war against China
Presidential support has been re
quested by Rep. Walter M. Pierce
of Oregon for his bill to establish a
government owned chemical plant
on Columbia river to supply Inland
Empire farmers with a solution to
destroy noxious weeds. Pierce wants
to use Bonneville power, and his
bill calls for an appropriation of
$700,000. Hearings on the measure
will be held in January. At the
White House the president did not
commit himself, but suggested to
Pierce that he see the executive next
session.
Pursuing the plan to extend Bon
neville power as far as possible
from the generators in Columbia
river, the budget bureau is being
requested to approve an appropria
tion of $10,000,000 for more trans
mission lines. The project has al
ready received $27,000,000 for this
purpose. Request will be made in
a few weeks for four more genera
tors, bringing the plant to its full
capacity of ten units.
Uncle Sam intends going into fish
culture in a big way on the Colum
bia river and its tributaries. Scien
tists are now looking for eauitable
hatchery sites and when these have
been located $500,000 will be spent
m establishing stations to maintain
and increase the fish runs. It is
the largest and most comprehensive
program of the kind that the federal
government has undertaken.
Under congressional act a labor
atory is being onstructed at Albany,
Calif., to study uses of surplus farm
commodities and waste material at
canneries. This laboratory is to deal
with products of the Pacific north
west, such as wheat, potatoes, fruit,
vegetables and alfalfa. The govern
ment is seeking to learn how these
products and waste material at can
neries can be utilized in industry
and to discover new uses for the
commodities. Secretary of Agricul
ture Wallace warns, however, that
it may be several years before any
discoveries are made that will be
practical and aid the farmers.
To enforce the wage-hour law, 500
inspectors will be in the field in a
few months, compared with less
than 100 now; the litigation branch
will increase its staff of lawyers
from seven to more than forty.
A business census will be taken
in January; the population census
knext spring. Supervisors of each
district will receive training in De
cember. Each district will have a
supervisor, an assistant, a stenogra
pher and two clerks. Sufficient enu
merators will be employed in each
district to count noses. Designation
of the towns for district headquar
ters is made by the bureau of cen
sus, which relieves congressmen of
making the decision between com
peting communities.
Four O.S.C. Classes
To Hold Reunions
Oregon State College Four of the
more recent Oregon State college
graduating classes have decided to
hold a joint reunion at the time of
the 1939 Homecoming, instead of
waiting until the usual alumni day
at Commencement time, announces
Warren Reid, manager of the alumni
association. The classes which will
meet here Nov. 18, at the time of
the California-Oregon State game,
are those of '24, '25, '26, and '27. The
tour classes will hold a luncheon
that day and will have special tables
at the evening alumni banquet.
