Facts About Our Students
For facts about our students this
week, Miss Shirley Wilson, our stu
dent body secretary has been cho
sen. Shirley is 17 years old and was
born in Heppner on June 8, 1922. In
addition to holding the office of stu
dent body secretary, Shirley is the
secretary of the student body and
the Pep club. She also has oneof the
leads in the senior play.
On being asked what her hobby
was, Shirley said, "Collecting stuff
and filling scrap books." Shirley's
favorite boy on week days, Sundays,
and holidays is Bill Blake. The rest
of the time she devotes to school
work.
This should not be mistaken for a
personal opinion but Shirley stated
that on completing high school, she
intended to attend college to take
accounting.
In Shirley's ideal boy she places
personality first, then neatness. She
didn't rate athletic ability.
Shirley's favorite sport is tennis.
Her favorite song is "South of the
Border." Her favorite picture is
"Daughters Courageous." Her favor
ite actor is Spencer Tracy and her
favorite actress is Bette Davis. Miss
Doughty is her favorite teacher; and
she would rather eat a marshmallow
sundae than any other dish.

Amistice Day Program Held
An interesting Armistice Day pro
gram was held last Friday, Nov. 10,
in the high school auditorium, for
the high school and seventh and
eighth grades. The assembly was
opened by the flag salute led by
Raymond Parrish. The program
consisted of "America," sung by the
audience, led by Miss McElhinny;
a baritone solo, "Tramp, Tramp,
Tramp," by Hugh Crawford, ac
companied by Dorothy Howell; "God
Bless America," by Lucille Barlow,
and songs, "On the Road to Manda-
lay" and "Goin" Home," by the grade
school chorus, led by Miss Forsythe
and accompanied by Virginia Dix.
Mr. Harry Tamblyn, who served
in the World war, was the main
speaker. He spoke on "The Glory of
War."
The closing song, "The Star
Spangled Banner," was sung by the
audience.
National Book Week
This week has been set aside as
National Book week. The object of
this is to make the people more book
conscious.
Better than a crystal ball are the
services of your library. At your
command are batteries of encyclo
pedias and other reference books,
magazines for investigation and for
keeping continually well-informed
on the current happenings, novels
for recreation and a friendly librar
ian to help you select book or find
the information you need.
In your school library as well as
in the city library yo should guard
against being the person who is al
ways too noisy, the patron who sees
that the library does not close up
early, or the patron who didn't know
the library closed for holidays. An
irritation to the librarian is the pa
tron who can't find anything. This
is the type which trips over the dic
tionary stand on the way to the desk
to ask the librarian where the dic
tionary is.
The school has ordered many
books and I would suggest that you
look a little farther than the cover
of the book and do not pass it up
because it is non-fiction.
Basketball Season Opens Soon
Basketball season officially start
ed Monday with the first practice
scheduled for that day. Heppner is
supposed to have some good material
-this year in basketball. This is based
on the fact that there will be several
members on the squad that have
been on the team in past years.
Whosit?
She is a worthy senior, she makes
a sensation as a Russian in the play,
is one of our majorettes, is presi
dent of the Home Ec club, swings it
with the piano, her heart interest
is a drummer.
Band Adopts Constitution
For the first time in the history
of the Heppner school band they
are organized under a constitution.
The use of this very complete con
stitution was adopted Monday. The
band, under the direction of Harold
Buhman, hopes to further gain the
respect of the school and the com
munity by being the most active or
ganization in the school.
In quoting the preamble from the
constitution, it states:
The Heppner School Band has
been established in order that this
band might better cooperate in any
school activity which can be im
proved by band music; that a better
understanding might exist between
the band and the citizens of the
communty; that a more sincere atti
tude might be assured at rehearsals;
that the proper handling of any bus'
iness pertaining to it might be pro
vided for; and that a more cooper'
ative spirit might exist among the
members of this organization.
The constitution was drawn up by
a committee of Omer McCaleb, Har
old Armstrong, Jack Merrill, Shir
ley Wilson, and President Don Jones.
Congratulations bandsmen.
Home Ec. Girls Entertained
A short song and dance program
was given at the last Home Ec
meeting, held in the music room,
Nov. 8. Peggy Tamblyn, Dorotha
Wilson and Patty O'Hara sang "The
Chestnut Tree." The second time,
Patty sang it alone, while Dorotha
and Peggy gave side-rsplitting inter
pretations by dancing to the words.
At this meeting, it was decided to
hold a popcorn sale at the Hermis-ton-Heppner
football game. Also in
the near future, a party will be held
for Home Ec girls to which all mem
bers will bring the bazaar projects
to work on. This will be more fully
discussed next meeting.
The Home E girls deided to hold
the football banquet December 1.
The banquet will be followed by a
dance. Since this is to pay for ban
quet expenses, there will be a charge
of 35c a couple or 25c for indi
viduals. F. F. A. News
Several of the F. F. A. boys
namely Dean Gilman, James John
ston, Art Vance, James Moyer, Don
Fell, and Francis Healy, have re
ceived their beef steers which are
now located at the sheds by the
Rodeo field. A general price of 8c a
pound was paid for these steers.
Some were received of Robert
Thompson and Frank Wilkinson. Al
though these men did not wish to
sell the steers, they generously sold
them to the F. F.- A. boys.
Preparations are being made very
rapidly for completion of the con
crete floor in the Ag. shop. In the
past the boys have had to wade
around in dust about an inch deep.
Some of the forms have been laid,
but operation has been slow due to
the lack of a concrete mixer.
Hither and Thither
A new senior in our midst is Lew
is McDonald, who has transferred
from Hardman high school. He has
attended Boardman school for the
past three years.
Jean Hays and her brother, John
ny, motored to Tillamook Friday to
her sister's wedding.
The following students were ab
sent from classes the past week:
Milton Morgan, Don Fell, Francis
Healy, Nelma Hanlon, Mary Kirk,
Jack McLaughlin, Rosetta Healy,
Glen Fell, Hugh McLaughlin, Helen
Egan.
Dean Gilman received a knee in
jury Wednesday night at football
practice.
Lorraine Bothwell spent the week
end visiting relatives in Wasco coun
ty, mainly at Maupin and Wapinitia.
While in Maupin she attended the
Maupin-Dufur Armistice day game
which ended in a 6-6 tie.
Heppner to Play Arlington Again
This Saturday Heppner will play
Arlington in a retrun game on their
own field. Last year when the Mus
tangs played the Honkers on their
own home field the Mustangs were
defeated by a 6-0 score. This year
the Mustangs intend to have differ
ent results. Some of the players are
getting in practice to run in the
sand at Arlington by running around
the track four times a night.
This game is not a regular one
but is played to give Arlington a
chance to redeem herself. It has no
effect on the Upper Columbia Ath
letic league championship.
Many Attend Pep Rally
Pep, enthusiasm, and noise reigned
at the rally held last Friday night.
The pep band marched up Main
street led by the three drum major
ettes and followed by a large group
of students who serpentined behind
them. Several yells were given and
the band played a few selections be
fore going to the theater.
The program at the show consisted
of an introduction of the football
team and short speeches by the
coach, Mr. Knox, and captain, Doug
Drake. The yell king and duchess
led yells and the band played three
selections.
The yell leaders should be con
gratulated for planning such a good
rally, as should be the students who
really turned out for a change.
Fashion Dashes
The fashion spotlight of last week
centered on smart ensembles that
made their appearance at the Armis
tice dance, Saturday.
Nominated for the most outstand
ing styles of the evening: Jean Hays
in a dark green silk bustle dress,
and Wanda Howell in a lighter green
wool dress of classic style.
I'm sure you'll agree that Lowell
Ashbaugh looked especially nice,
Monday, in light blue gabardine
shirt and dark trousers. But no less
worthy of mention was Dubby Aik
en's new green sweater.
