that the rain predicted by the
weather bureau for Wednesday
evening as probably amounting
to from one to two tenths of an
inch had passed the .30 of an inch
mark at his North lone racnh be

the "seeding" operations of the

increasing the rainfall in this
area, bringing direct results to
the farmers and stockgrowers.

Shamrocks Won All
Games on Regular
Basketball Slate
A handsome trophy adorns one
of the windows of the Turner, Van
Marter & Co. office following the
close of the basketball season for
the Shamrocks, town team coach
ed and managed by La Verne
Van Marter. The trophy signifies
that the Shamrocks are the cham
pions of the Morrow-Gilliam lea
gue and if they can hold the
"cup" for two more seasons it will
become their permanent posses
sion. The Shamrocks made an im
pressive record during the sea
son just closed. They won all of
their 16 , regularly scheduled
games in the league and besides
went on to win 10 out of 13 other
games with teams outtside of the
district.
The team journeyed to Hood Ri.
ver and won there; lost at Moro.
Goldendale and one to ihe Pen
dleton Motor-In team, winner of
the Umatilla -Morrow district AA
U championship. Heppner wasn't
particularly interested in going
out of the district for this title,
although Van Marter admits it
would have been somewhat of a
satisfaction to have won it.
Final victory for the Shamrocks
was over Irrigon, the score being
61-40.
