Mustangs Win Home Opener 2k to
Second Local
Game Set Friday
With Slanfield
By Larry Mollahon
The Heppner high school Mus
tangs broke into the win column
last Friday in their first home
game, by beating the Umatilla
Vikings 24 to C. The local grid
dcrs were again short the ser
v ices of several players, but had
little trouble in taking command
of the play.
The Heppner squad got off to a
poor start in the first quarter
with a series of fumbles and off
.'ides, but as the poriod progres
sed Jerry Haguewood, Mustang
halfback, pushed over for the
first touchdown. The Mustangs
were almost constantly in a posi
tion to score, but due to fumbles
couldn't get rolling to run up a
big score. Haguewood repeated
his performance in the second
period to add another tally dur
ing the first half.
In the third quarter the Mus
tang aerial attack began to roll
with a 35 yard pass from Lyle
Jensen to Jim Hayes for a score.
At the start of the fourth period
of play the Vikings put together
a sustained attack that account
ed for their only score of the
Came.
Jerry Haguewood, in the final
quarter, after a sustained drive
from niidfield, went over for
Heppner's final score to bring the
total to 21 to G. Haguewood, Jen
sen and Hayes are all juniors and
are expected to be a powerful
trio around which to build a
team next year.
Play Here Friday
The Mustangs will again per
form on their own field this
Friday when they play host to
Stanfield. The Umatilla county
squad Is one of the most power
ful In the league, and is expected
to give the Heppner team a rough
afternoon, Starting lineups for
this game have not yet been re-

Lose to Hermiston,
To Tackle Pendleton
The HeDDner grade school Pon
ies invaded Pendleton this after
noon to tackle their second game
of the grid season. They will meet
the Pendleton grade school at
4 o'clock on the Round -Up field.
The Ponies, who came out the
short end of a 26 to 6 score with
Hermiston last Thursday are in
good spirits and suffered no in
juries from their first game.
"Considerinc the fact that most
of the boys have never played
11 man football before, they uiu
very well," coach Jim Peterson
stated Wednesday. Tackling and
blocking practice during the past
week has helped the boys con
siderably, he said.

field and will start at 7 p. m.

CAUSES OF HOME FIRES LISTED
AS CHECKS IN FIRE PREVENTION
Over sixty deaths resulted from
home fires In Oregon last year.
Property damage exceeded 4
million dollars. More than three
fourths of the fires reported by
the Oregon Fire Marshal were in
homes.
N. C. Anderson, Morrow county
extension agent, says "Only YOU
can prevent home fires" by re
moving fire hazards. Fire Pre
vention Week, October 4-10, is a
good time for householders and
farmers to inspect their property.
Fire risk can be prevented by
no more care and attention than
a farmer would give to the main
tenance of a farm machine, says
Anderson. Spending a few hours
correcting fire hazards around
the home or farmstead will great
ly reduce fire risk.
