JLTAINTAINING that no boy can become the best kind of citizen without
ATA recognizing his obligation to God, the Boy Scouts of America, in this
new Norman Rockwell painting, symbolizes the spirit and meaning of its
Twelfth Scout Law: "A Scout is reverent. He is reverent toward God. He
is faithful in his religious duties and respects the convictions of others in
matters of custom and religion." I

Girls' League Presents Program
An original theme was carried
out in the assembly presented by
the Girls' League last Friday after
the student body meeting. The en
tire program was presented in a
cabaret setting.
The first part of the program
consisted of the story, "Little Red
Riding Hood" as told by Hitler (Peg
Tamblyn). Mildred McClintock por
trayed the nice, kind old wolf, who
got shoved around by that rat, Red
Riding Hood (Jean Hays) and that
louse, the grandmother (Neta Bleak-.
man).
The remainder of the program
included "Frankie and Johnny,"
sung by a quartet of girls Dorotha
Wilson, Kingsley Chapin, Lucille
Barlow and Patty O'Hara. The
words were carried out in panto
mime by Shirley Wilson as "Fran
kie" and Kathryn Thompson as
"Johnny."
Johnny proved he wasn't dead by
popping up again in "Oh Johnny,"
sung by the quartet.
The closing numbers were "At the
Balalaika" and a tap dance by Wan
da Howell to "La Cucaracha."

FROM THE BALCONY
Bill Blake
This correspondent humbly apol
ogizes for the statement in the last
issue of the Hehisch which read
"Mustangs Win Conference Title."
The statement should have read
'Mustangs win Conference Tilt. . . .
By virtue of their win over Condon,
and Fossil's upset over Arlington,
the Heppner team is assured of no
less than a tie for top honors in the
"A" division of the league. If the
Mustangs should lose to the Honk
ers, the league will again be put in
a tie. . . . O'Donnell made some beau
tiful shots in the Condon game,
while Drake, high scorer to date,
was unable to find the basket all
evening, missing many chances,
. . . Irrigon leads the "B" division of
the league with seven wins and one
loss; closely followed by Boardman,
with five wins and one loss. . . . lone
played Heppner with a much strong
er team than the one Heppner de
feated by a score of 39-13 This
is due to the return of the Petty
john twins, diminutive forwards. . . .
Pinckney now holds the bottom
rung of the free throw ladder with
a .200 percentage; Osborne holds
the lead with a .533. . . . Wray con
tinues to top the foulers with 23
personals called against him; O'
Donnell follows with 19 Coach
Knox has only twice used the same
starting combination.
Modes of the Day
As the weather has changed to
wards spring there are also changes
in the ensembles of the girls.
This week colorful blouses are in
the news. Frances Wilkinson wore
a peach silk sport blouse with a
blue wool pleated skirt. Norma
Prock wore a pink silk blouse with
blue satin stripes in it to give it a
different touch. Lois Jones wore a
yellow shantung blouse with blue
flowers in it. Kathryn Thompson
wore a royal blue wool blouse with
long sleeves.
One dress this week that caught
the eye of all was Claudine Drake

flowered rayon dress. The attract
ive neckline draped effectively with
a clip at the neck.
