With both Heppner and Arlington
high schools winning in league play
last Friday the top spot in the "A"
division of the Wheat league basket
ball standings remains divided be
tween the two teams. This situation
is likely to exist for still another
week since both' teams should win
their Friday night games handily,
Last Friday night Heppner Mus
tangs played bang-up ball to win
from a scrappy Fossil team on the
Heppner floor. Although outscored
in the early moments of the game,
the Fossilites went on undaunted,
putting up such a spirited fight that
the Heppner quintet had to extend
itself to make the final score 35-21
in its favor. Meanwhile the Arling
ton Honkers were having an easy
time tromping on Condon, 28-15.
Over in the "B" division, the Ir
rigon high Comets made their first
place position almost impregnable
by steam-rolling over a tough Um
atilla team, 33-19, with Irrigon's
Jones connecting for 20 points to
outscore the entire Umatilla quintet.
The game, played at Irrigon Tues
day evening, was somewhat of a
revenge session for the Comets as
the Umatilla squad is the only team
to register a win over the league-
leading basketeers this season.
Umatilla displayed great defen
sive power last Friday night in its
30-4 win over Echo in which the
Echo team failed to score a single
basket except by way of the foul
line. Tuesday evening the rejuven
ated Jone quintet gained revenge
over Lexington by coming from be
hind to win. a 23-17 on the lone
floor.
In non-league competition the Ir
rigon five proved to be the pace
setters of both leagues by trouncing
Adams high, 44-30, early in the
week and then jumping on the big
time Hermiston team to squeeze out
a 32-2G win at Hermiston. Echo
high beat Pilot Rock, 23-18, early
in the week and not to be outdone,
the lone quintet turned back the
same Pilot Rock team last Saturday
night with a 25-23 score. Arlington
high school took it on the chin when
John Day handed the visitors a 25-15
jolt last Saturday. On the same
night Condon squeezed out a 33-32
win over Boardman. Boardman
dropped another one to the power
ful Hermiston outfit, 33-11, on Tu
esday night.
Games for the coming week in
clude the Echo-Lexington game at
Lexington on Thursday with The
Dalles high visiting Arlington for a
game the same night. Heppner
journeys to Condon and Arlington
travels to Fossil on Friday night
while Umatilla goes to Hermiston.
Saturday night Condon meets Fossil
at Fossil, and Arlington tackles
Klickitat.
Heppner goes to lone next Tues
day for a night game while Uma
tilla travels to Arlington. Boardman
will go to Echo for the only Wed
nesday night game of the week.

Auxiliary Supports
5-Poinr Program
Five important points head the
legislative program which the Am
erican Legion Auxiliary is support
ing during the present session of
congress, states Mrs. Lucy Rodgers,
egislative chairman of the local
auxiliary unit.
The half million auxiliary women
are joining with the one million
American Legion members in urg
ing passage of Universal Service
legislation, adequate appropriations
for national defense, federal protec
tion for widows and children of de
ceased World war veterans, real
preference for veterans in govern
ment employment, and tightening of
the immigration, naturalization and
deportation laws.
Enactment of the principle of Uni
versal Service into law has been
urged by the Legion and auxiliary
ever since the World war to provide
equal service for all and special
profit for none in event of war.
Universal Service bills have been
before congress at many sessions,

with steadily increasing support
Leaders are hopeful that an effec
tive Universal Service law can be
enacted during this session.
National defenses strong enough
to discourage aggression against the
United States and to give full pro
tection to the country in event of
war always have been advocated by
the Legion and auxiliary. This year
they have a large and specific pro
gram of national defense measures
which they are urging and which
they are confident will be in large
part adopted by congress.
ATTENDS DAD'S DAY
F. B. Nickerson returned from
Eugene the first of the week after
spending the week end at the Uni
versity of Oregon. He went primar
ily to attend the annual Dads' day
at the university and reports a grand
time. Aside from enjoying the grand
entertainment provided by the stu
dents, Nickerson visited his son
Francis and all of the Heppner en
rollees at the university. He saw
the two basketball games between
Oregon and Washington and is loud
in his praise of the Oregon quint,
which he says staged the greatest
comeback Saturday night he ever
saw made by any athletic team.
PAST MATRONS ELECT
Mrs. Gertrude Parker was elected
Past Matrons club president in a
