Mustangs lake Seventh in District Track Meet By Larry Mollahan Heppner liijili school's small but mighty track team came out in seventh place in a field of fourteen competing teams in the "B" division at the District Track Meet al La Grande last Saturday. The crucial point in the track meet for Heppner came when Bill Hughes, Heppner pole vaulter, was locked in a tie with Duane Chapman of Pilot Rock. The two vaulters were tied for the all im portant second place position which would enable the holder to a state meet berth. As it turned out Hughes won the second place ribbon but winning, forfeited his right to go to the state, while Chapman took third and is going to Salem this Friday. A surprising thing about the two senior, two-sophomore, two junior track squad is that every one of them idaced in the event in which they were competing. The top men of the squad, Bill Hughes and Jim Green each placed, Hughes with a second in pole vault anil a third in the high jump; Green, fourth in the high hurdles. The team's two juniors, Lyle Jensen and Larry Mollahan did fairly well as much is going to he expected from them next year. Jensen came in first in his heat and his time ranked a fourth place ribbon. Larry Mollahan, weights man of the Heppner squad took the discus for a ride into a fifth place rating. The two real stars of the team take form in two sophomores, Skip l'uhl who won third in the I in and Mike Monahan In Ihe en durance mile. This being the last inlerschool competition of the year.

It's the cir cumstances of how many regis trants go to the polls and vote and how rnanv scattered votes are cast. At the last general election, two years ,-igo, the Republican primary vote was barely 50 per cent of the registration figures, and 19.")2 was a "presidential year of presidential years." The most effectively publicised campaign since the' days of the torch light parades before the turn of the century. The voting per cent this year will be as low as the interest in the campaign. Granting the im probable, that there will be a 50 per cent vote, there would be a total of only V.K.W) Republican vote scast. Deducting 5 per cent for scattering votes and illegally marked ballots would leave 187, 5S7 voles divided between Gov. Paul Patterson and Secretary of State Fail T. Newbry, The winner?
