Jim Conley, in charge of construc
1 tion work being done on the Parker
Eight Mile road, doesn't feel that he
is a stranger in Heppner. In 1923
he played on the local baseball team,
being imported from Portland along
with Freddie Roberts and Chappie
King, battery. He says that the lo
cal people took their baseball pretty
seriously then. He remembered that
a number of times, when the team
was in- a tight spot and he was at
bat, a fan would wave a ten dollar
bill under his nose and shout, "It's
yours if you will only hit this one."
But in such a case he could never
quite manage to connect with the
elusive pellet.
E. L. Gardiner and Roy Landon
of the state highway department
were guests at Hotel Heppner this
week. They are in charge of right-of-way
work. Mr. Gardiner has oc
cupied the position since the death
of .the late D. C. Wells, pioneer res
ident of Heppner, and Mr. Landon
will have charge of the territory
from now on.
Elmer F. Peterson, district mana
ger at Portland for a leading insur
ance company, was in the city Mon
day evening with his brother Henry
of Eight Mile, coming to the old
home town in time for opening of
the pheasant season. Mrs. Peterson
and daughter accompanied him to
the county for a visit of several
days.
Mr. and Mrs. Carl Christenson of
Portland were hunting guests of
Logie Richardson the opening day
of pheasant season. Mr. Richardson
and Mr. Christenson have missed few
years in the last thirty hunting to
gether, and the old cronies enjoyed
a renewal of their favorite pastime.
