Nickerson told the chamber of commerce luncheon group Mon day that due to the spread of the disease within the past year it will be necessary to raise a much larger sum than has been trie rule in recent years and that all individuals and organ izations will be waited upon for contributions. The chairman reported on a meeting of polio chairmen of the several counties of the state Saturday in Portland which was highlighted by a visit from Basil Basketball Fans Treated to Rare Brand of Play There was no thought on the part of the fans or players that the Heppner Townies could or would win their game from the Harlem Globetrotters. In that no one was disappointed. The question in the minds of all was as to how much of a showing the local squad could or would make. To be truthful, the final sore does net look too bad for the Townies, but it doesn't tell the story. The record shows a score of 61-34 in favor of the colored boys. it could have been almost any thing the Harlemites wished to make it had they really "gone to town" in a big way. They chose to make a good game of it and have a lot of fun at the same time, with the result that the 500 or so cash customers got the full value of their in vestment The first quarter was fast and furious. The visitors really worked for afew minutes. The Townies even got ahead once in that period, 10-9. After that tii GTs ran up a long margin and then settled down to their evening's fun. Fancy passing, trick shots and clowning kept the crowd in an uproar much of the time. At one time "Pipei" Davis (we think it was he) playing near the south basket all by himself, tossed one in for the Townies. That broke up a long scoreless spell for the local boys and they perked up for a while. The pay-off .came when Fran cis Nickerson, playing his lust game of basketball, heaved one in for 'he Townies. One of the Harlem boys cleared the floor and tola "Nick" to shoot, telling him, j'ou're going to get a bas ket if I have to throw it for you." . . , While all of the Globetrotters are outstanding players, the one making the greatest impression on the crowd was Boyd Buie, one-armed guard. His precision in throwing baskets is uncanny ancj he is equally proficient in receiving and passing. Manager LaVerne Van Marter is angling tor other games for his Townie squad and may pos sibly iind another big tune i t- traction before the season ends. Presses Were Hartford and Started at Burgh Hill, Ohio Lack of press and other equip ment did not deter A. Bennett from launching a newspaper at Burgh Hill, Ohio, in September. 1845. There was need for a school publication and he set about to perpare It "A Paper Devoted to Education, General Intelligence, Etc.," he wrote on the masthead. Some weeks back Walter Gay brought a copy of the Hartford and Vernon Times to this office. There are eight pages of sheets eight by twelve inches and the copy Is all prepared in long hand. There were no typewrit ers in those days 102 years ago and printing presses were not available except in the larger centers. The masthead "Hartford and Vernon Times" 13 cucfully hand lettered and the rest is In long hand. In his opening paragraph, Ed Itor Bennett announced: "The Hartford and Vernon Times Is a newspaper published at the Burgh Hill Institute, Hartford Trumbull County, Ohio.

There will be a plenty of vaiiety for all who have a correct taste for reading It has already a circulation of two thousand and subset lpttons O'Connor, head of the national foundation and also chief of the Red Cross. He brought a mes sage from O'Connor urging the people to be generou3. Of great local interest is the proposal of 4he state organiza tion to send LaVerne Van Mar ter on a trip to Portland an'! the Willamette valley towns in the Interest of the campaign. A great many of the polio victims are discouraged with their out look on life and Van Marter was selected as the man best fitted to demonstrate to these unfor tunate victims that their chance for success has not been lost Chairman liickerson is awaiting word from the state director '.el ative to Van Matter's itinerary. Mrs. Van Marter wijl accompany her husband on the trip. Dance Fouled Up With Men 'Beating It Up' in Kitchen Dancing without a masculine partner is not the fondest thing the girls is of. That's the im pression gained from a state ment of one of the gentler sex at the old time dance staged following the PTA meeting at the school house Wednesday evening. With the gents in the kitchen preparing refreshments, dancing partners of the opposite sex were at a premium and ac cording to one of the gals the dance was "fouled up." The evening opened' with a short business session and was followed by an illustrated talk by Tom Wilson, his subject be ing "Resources of Eastern Ore gon." Wilson had numerous pictures which were projected on the screen to depict the type of industries and resources found in this region. The fifth grade was awarded the picture of the month, hav ing 15 parents present at the meeting. Stephen Thompson was chair man of the refreshment com mittee which included Claude Graham, Blaine Isom, Edmond Gonty, Tress McClintock, Marvin Wightman and Conley Lanham.

Scarce When Vernon Times .ut- uauy increasing, it is a large and extensive sheet of the finest paper. It cannot fail to give satisfaction. Terms, five dollars a year in advance." (That last sentence is of Dar ticular interest to publishers of tins era who mail out their is sues each week at subscriptions averaging about $2.50 per an num.) Experience gained while strue gling along with a hand-written paper must have placed Editor Bennett in position to enjoy the luxury ot a printing press if that privilege were accorded him. The original copy contain ed contributions by others, such as "Early Remembrances" by A M. Read, the text of which leads one to believe that the writer was a teacher; an article on "Neglect" by M. Moses; "The Two Travellers"; a lengthy dis cussion ot Mesmerism, and an article on the Burgh Hill Lyce um. But no athletics. The rule in those days was "readln', writ In' and 'rithmetic." Despite the fact that the pa per was prepared more than century ago It Is In a good state of preservation. Mr. Gay did not know how his family came to be in possession of it but think It might have been the property of his grandfather who passed It on to the late Henry Gay.

Written aboard the Queen Elizabeth as the great ship was pulling Into the har bur at Southampton, Luckman said he had had a pleasant Journey. Word received on ship board was that the weather was cold In England, but he would be willing to take it to get his feet on land once more. Change in Town's Water and Police Setup Proposed Superintendent of Both Departments Gets Consideration A proposal to place responsi bility for both water and police departments on one man met with approval of Mayor Lanham and the city cou.'cil when the plan was submitted Tuesday evening at a called meeting. The plan was evolved to relieve councilmen from hiving to take time from their rspeotiv busi nesses to lay out and o'esee pro jects and otherwise oversee af fairs of the city The plan as first presented did not meet with the approv al of J. O. Rasmus, city water supervisor, who contended that the job of water mastef and po licing are separate jobs and should be kept that way. Ras mus forthwith handed in his keys and tendered his resigna tion, leaving the meeting while the matter was still under dis cussion. The mayor and council are In accord on the proposal to create a job of city superintendent who will be in charge of both water and police departments. The plan includes an assistant to the superintendent whose duties will be mostly in the water de partment, and a police chief. If the proposal is correctly un derstood, all three will be sub ject to police duty if occasion arises, but police work in the main will devolve upon the man retained for that purpose. A meeting has been called for Friday evening to make final arrangements for putting the plan into operation and to con sider applications for the posi tion. The town is temporarily without a watermaster. The new councilmen entered upon their duties with a zest and had plenty of business to thresh out. Councilman Dun ham proposed that the city make an effort to collect revenues on punchboards as provided by a city statute. Some change in the ordinance may be necessary to make collecting practicaL R. B. Rands of JJoardman was present and submitted a propos al for installing five or six slot machines in Heppner. Rands has machines in opeation at Ir rigon, Boardman, lone and Lex ington. Luke Bibby also was present and his offer on operat ing the machines on a percent age basis appeared to give the city a better break. The coun cil favored Bibby if permission is granted to operate them. Bennett Family in Reunion Sunday Sunday was a red letter day in the history of the I. C. Ben nett family, for all members of the family were together in the first reunion in 25 years.
