COMMITTEE PUSHING PLANS FOR RECREATION BUILDING Another step towards realiza tion of a civic building for Hepp ner was taken early this week when the committee in charge of the project engaged an archi tect to draw up plans for re modeling the city-owned build ing at the swimming pool site. Expansion of the building is desired by the committee in the hope the architect will be able tn meet this objective without too great a cash outlay. Locker rooms, a club room, and a dance floor 30x60 feet is envisioned by tie- committee, with the plans not interfering with the use of the building duripg the swim ming season and at the same time providing a year-round civ ic center that can be made to pay its way. o Riding Club Here Object of Meeting Set for Monday Formation of a local riding club is the objective of a meet Ing to be held at the council room in the city building at 8 o'clock p.m. Monday, March 31 C.

Too Many Orvilles ' Getting New Planes; Reporter Fouled Up If the parties concerned had not known which plane belong-i ed to who, an account of the new plane all ready here and the one that was to come later in the week as it appeaerd in these columns last week might have caused some misunder standing. Cause of all the misunder standing on the part of the re porter was too many Orvilles. Orville Smith had just received a new plane for the Heppner Lumber company and Orville Cutsforth was flying east with Jack Forsythe and Ted Smith in his Stinson to pick up another Stinson and fly it back. The Smith plane remained here un til Saturday morning when Mr. Smith took his family on a trip to Portland, Seattle and other Washington points over the week end. Cutsforth returned ahead of Forsythe and Smith soloing all the way. Forsythe, a licensed pilot, was grounded east of the Rockies dut to bad weather, but Cutsforth flew blithely on and arrived home without mishap. o Livestock Brings Good Prices Here Popularity of the Heppner Sales yard is increasing, with buyers coming from long dis tances to bid on the livestock offered here twice each month. Prices are satisfactory to the sellers, too, according to Harold Erwin, yard manager, who cited some figures to prove his con tention. At the March 6 sale, Ben An derson, Eightmile farmer, sold one Hereford cow at 20 cents a pound. She weighed 1200 pounds result, $240. Another cow sell ing at 20 cents a pound brought !iim $211; a third one weighing 1280 pounds sold at 15 34 cents, totaling $201.60, and the fourth, 1450 pounds at 16.10 cents net ted $233.45. On March 20, Gordon McGough sold a 1245 pound steer at 22 cents a pound, bringing $273.90. At this sale the yard donated a $20 pig which was auctioned eight times bringing in $120 for the Red Cross. The pig was all dolled up in a blanket bearing the Red Cross symbol on each side and had a red bow of rib bon around his neck and on his tall. Next sale at the yard will be April 3. Mrs. Emma Evans left Mon day for 'Newport to spend sever al weeks. She accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Carl Her who came to Heppner to attend the funeral of Mrs. Llllie Aiken. lone.
