8 Heppner Gazette Times, September 13, 1945 Rodeo Track Adds Zest to Races It is one thing to have a fine string of race horses and quite an other thing to have a good track for them to run on. In the case of the Heppner Rodeo spectators had an opportunity to see what fine running horses can do on a fast track, for this year, through the insistance of Frank Turner, the oval was put in first class condition for the races.. Not only did Turner insist that the track be put in first class shape he did much of the work and felt amply repaid for his services when race horse owners and riders com mented favorably upon th fine con dition of the turf. This was only one of Turner's activities in connection with preparations for the 1945 show but he is more satisfied with the track job than any of the others. He hopes that will be tfte only job hell have m connection with next year's show. ?rnT AUXILIARY TO MEET " The first fall meeting of the Am erican Legion auxiliary will be held at 8:30 p. m.

Joe Marshi Mad Dogs and Wagging Tongues The county had a "mad dog" scare last week. Phoebe Token's spaniel bit the postman, and he vowed that he was plenty mad about it. But by the time the rumor got around, it wasn't the postman who was mad, it was the dog. And before the truth was learned, half the kids in the neighbor hood had missed school, while their mothers nearly died of fright. Wagging tongues can cause a lot of "mad dog" trouble. Like wagging tongues that gossip about our soldiers drinking too much around Army camps. It's just not true, as the govern ment found out and told us. Milk and beer are among a sol dier's favorite drinks -which Is why we have the best behaved army in history. But those ugly , rumors are bound to hurt mo rale and cause hard feeling. From where I sit, wagging tongues can cause a heap more trouble than mad dogs. Ccpy-Ash:, lr-:-5, United States Bremen Foundation St ar Reporter ....
