OBffifBQ f. fv 's' Many Awards Won By Heppner School Band This year marks the culmina tion of four years' steady pro gress made by the Heppner school band under the direction of Robert Collins. It has 41 mem bers this year, of which 33 are grade school students. Each year the organization has competed In the District Competition-Festival at La Grande, and has earned two ratings of "Excel lent" (II) and two ratings of "Superior" (I). This year was ex ceptional in this respect because the band entered competition in two different classifications. First they played in class "C" (high school competition) and then later. the same day they played a different selection of music in class "E" (grade school and junior high). "Superior" ratings were achieved in both contests.
