Condon Retaliates
With 9 to 4 Win
Over Heppner
Turn Neal, Condon rir.ht-liand-er,
pave Heppner a bud drubbing
last Friday striking out seven
Mustang bailers during a seven
inning catastrophe for the locals.
The Blue Devils won It to 4.
Beating Condon seemed to be
an easy assignment on the Con-
Ion diamond when the Mustangs
previously put the Blue Devils
on i he sboit end of a 16 to 3
moic, but improved pitching and
fielding left eppnei''s victory
hopes fading as Wilmet, Mcln
lie and Neal each slammed the
horsebide for consecutive runs in
i he lost inning.
The Mustangs made a feeble
cffori to retaliate but their
pooi' fielding couldn't even slow
down the liluc Devils.
The fifth inning saw Condon
mercilessly pounding the ball
through a weak Heppner infield
to add three more runs to llieir
scoreshcet.
Heppner began to rub the dirt
out of its eyes in the sixth in
ning v lien Skip Kuhl worked a
walk into a score, as did Lance
Tibbies, and Jei ry Dougherty rap
liing out a single that tallied.
The Mustangs will go to Ar
lington today to meet the Honk
ers this allernoon on their own
diamond and the next sport
e ent u h icli Mustangs will take
p.nl in v. dl be the Condon Gal
lops, invitational track meet at
Condon Saturday.

steers were insufficient to meet
the demand, and fat heifers were
up $2.20 to a $20.00 top. Demand
was very broad and trading was
brisk throughout the sale. Belter
quality meaty bulls were con
signed", and the heavier rather
than the preferred lighter feeder
pigs were consigned, accounting
for a drop from $.'12.75 to $2!).10.

sale next Friday are ewes with
lambs at side as well as highly
finished heifers, cows and steers.

Reapportionment
Group Formed
A meeting to formulate an or
ganization to promote the placing
of a new legislative reapportion
ment measure on the ballot in
1950 was held Saturday, April 10
in Pendleton with representatives
from many sections of Eastern
Oregon being present.
The organization, for which a
name will be chosen later, is
planning to promote the placing
of the so-called "Federal plan"
of reapportionment, on the ballot
at the general election in 1956
and it was the feeling of those
present at the meeting that the
two-year delay was advisable to
allow ample time for education
and promotion of the plan. For
the proposal to become effective,
it must be a constitutional
amendment.
The new organization is to be
s!;.te-wide in scope and represen
tatives from each county will be
named to the executive board.
Henry Peterson of lone, was
named from Morrow county.

Grain Storage Bin
Loans Available
To Oregon Farmers
Farmers an
who are anticipating big supplies
of grain this fall can borrow a
large part of the cost of addition
al storage space and drying
equipment, says Ray Teal, seed
and grain marketing specialist at
Oregon State college.
Teal, citing loan programs of
the U. S. department ot agricul
ture, explains any farm owner
operator, tenant, landlord or pro
ducer partnership is eligible to
participate. Applications for
loans may be made at county
agricultural stabilization and
conservation offices. i
Loans may be made either di
rectly through the county office;
or a local bank and can be on
storage of wheat, oats, barley and
dry edible beans.
Farmers in Oregon can borrow
up to 80 percent of the cost of new
storage bins, cribs or other ap
proved storage structures, the
specialist says. However, the
structure must meet require
ments for storage under the price
support program.
Four years may be used to pay
loans off. The firsi installment
is payable 12 months after Hie
loan is made. Interest rate is
4 percent per year.
Up to 75 percent of the deliver
ed and assembled cost exclusive
of labor costs of storage equip
ment needs to keep stored grain
in proper condition may be bor
rowed under the program. This
includes mobile mechanical dry
ers, air circulators, ventilators,
tunnels and fans, Teal states.
Storage equipment loans are
payable in three annual install
ments. As in the case of storage
structure loans, the first install
ment is payable 12 months after
the loan is made. Interest rate
is -1 percent per year.
There are also special income
tax features in the program. Teal
adds. They are that cost of new

These facts about the New Chevrolet
can help you make an important decision
Don't you agree that buying a new car calls for careful
consideration? Regardless of make, it involves a sub
stantial amount of money and a lot of future satisfac
tion. This information can give you a better idea of com
parative value and help you decide which make to buy.

4 p. m. to 12 Midnight Doily Incl. Sunday
A good customer of ours was telling
us the other day how lie sizes up a
new ear. Because he's bought a num
lier of them over the years, we were
interested in what he had to say. We
think you will Ik1, too.
Actually, what he does is to ask
about seven basic questions. The
answers Rive a pretty complete pic
ture of the car and its comparative
value. 1 lore's what he wants to know.
How well do I like its looks?
That's one question, of course, that
only you can answer. You're the one
who buys the car and .you, above
anylnxly else, should be proud of its
apxaraiut
All we can tell you is that we hear a
lot of nice things about Chevrolet's
new styling. People seem to like the
new front-end and rear-end designs,
and the way the bumpers curve even
farther around the fenders. They like
the new styling touches all around the
car and the wide choice of bright new
colors and two-tone combinations. A
gcxxl many tell us that Chevrolet has
a decided edge over the other cars in
its field for smooth and graceful lines.
Who makes the body?
This question takes in much more
territory than the appearance of the
ear. It involves the quality of the
interior as well as the strength and
safety of the body construction.
That's why we think it worth your
consideration that Chevrolet has the
only Body by Fisher in the low-price
field.
You can see the difference outside
and inside. We'd especially like you
to look over the new interiors. Just sit
in the car, if you will. Feel the
quality of the fabrics and notice the
more generous use of vinyl trim.
In all these ways, you'll find evi
dence of superior quality and work
manship. And after all, isn't that
what you would expect in Body by
Fisher? As you know, Fisher is the
largest and most famous manufac
turer of automobile bodies in the
world. Doesn't it stand to reason that
Fisher can build extra quality into
the Chevrolet body? It's there and
you can see it.
What's under the hood?
You hear a great deal of talk these
days about engine power. The truth
is that the number of horsepower
isn't nearly as important as what the
horsepower does for you.
In this year's Chevrolet, you get
increased power in two finer engines.
There's the "Blue-Flame 125" engine
teamed with Powerglide automatic
transmission and optional on all
models at extra cost. In gearshift
models, you get the more powerful
"Blue-Flame 115" engine.
But, actually, the increase in
horsepower is only a sort of by
product of design changes made for
other reasons. Chevrolet engineers
were after greater engine efficiency,
not just greater power. So, you get
improved acceleration, with greater
and safer passing ability. You get
quieter, smoother operation. You
climb the steep hills with new ease.
How hungry is it for gasoline?
A car's reputation for, and record of,
economy of operation is certainly an
important consideration to most
people. We'd be glad to have you
compare Chevrolet in this respect
with any car at any price.
And, in the case of this new Chev
rolet, you do not have to sacrifice
economy for finer performance and
more horsepower. That's because
the Chevrolet engines are high-compression
engines. Their compression
ratio of 7.5 to 1 is the highest in any
of the leading low-priced cars.
This means simply that the engine
compresses, or squeezes, the fuel mix
ture to a greater degree in order to
wring more work out of it. That's
how Chevrolet is able to give you an
important gain in performance along
with money-saving gasoline mileage
and on regular gas, of course.
Is it up to d3te in features?
We can't think of a new feature or
development you might want that
you can't have on the new Chevrolet.
Now you can have Chevrolet's zippy,
and thrifty Powerglide automatic
transmission on any model. You can
have Power Steering on all models
and at a new, lower price. You can
have Automatic Window and Seat
Controls on any Bel Air or "Two
Ten" model, and you can have
Power Brakes on any model equipped
with Powerglide. All are, of course,
optional features at extra cost.
How popular a car is it?
When you come right down to it,
there's no better way to judge the
satisfaction a car gives its owners
than by its popularity. How many
people buy it and keep on buying it?
Well, as you may know, Chevrolet
is by far the most popular car in this
country. That's true today and it's
been true for a good many years now.
But it couldn't be true or wouldn't
be true unless Chevrolet gave its
owners an extra measure of satisfac
tion and value.
How much does it cost?
There's a short, sweet answer to that
one: Chevrolet is priced below all other
lines of cars. This lower cost is made
possible by the greater production
facilities and purchasing power of the
world's largest manufacturer of auto
mobiles. That is why Chevrolet can
offer you all the advantages we've
told you about here and many
more, too.
We'd be more than glad to have
you see all these things for yourself
and to try out this new Chevrolet on
the road. We'll be happy to see you
at any time.
