Heppner Nudges
Condon 10 to 7
By Larry Mollahan
A w ild seventh inning that saw
Condon make five of their seven
runs fell short for the Blue Devils
Thursday afternoon on the Hepp
ner field.
The first two innings were as
uneventful as a stay in solitary
with neither side showing too
much spark.
It wasn't until the third that
Skip Ruhl smashed a triple that
was like a spark In a dry forest.
Jerry Haguewood singled and
Lance Tibbies walked to be on
when Buck Lamb stepped to the
plate and tied into a double that
brought them both in. Lamb
proved to be no slouch but made
it in on Dick Kononen's single
which let him make in a round
trip. Kononen slipped Into home
when the catcher missed a peg.
Jim Hayes and Skip Ruhl led
off in the fifth with a walk and a
single respectively. Lance Tib
bies brought them both in when
the center fielder erred but was
unable to make it himself.
The Condon pitcher proved to
be a little wild in the sixth al
lowing Kononen to walk and
score and hitting Jerry Dougherty
with the bail who capitalized on
the wild pitch by making it
home too.
Bettencourt and Tom Neal
proved that Condon was down
but a long ways from out in the
bottom of the sixth when they
both scored to make It 10 to 2.
The final set was Condon's
final desperate effort with Mc
Kinney, Bettencourt, Neal, Mc
Intyre, and Harris scored.
Heppner made 10 runs to
eleven errors to Condon's 7 runs
to 8 errors.
The opposing batteries of
Hayes and Connor of Heppner
versus Lear and Neal of Condon
showed Heppner with three
strikeouts and three walks to
Condon's 6 strikeouts and four
walks.
Heppner plays the return game
with Condon over there this Fri
day.

Ways To Stretch
Water Supplies
Shown by Study
Oregon farmers in areas that
may be hit with below normal
supplies of irrigation water this
year can "stretch" the supply by
cutting down field losses from
runoff and excessive seepage, re
port Oregon State college and U.
S. department of agriculture scientists.
OSC soils scientist A. W. Marsh I
says only 54 percent of water de
livered by furrows was crop-used
during trials on 16 Owyhee pro
ject farms. About one-third of
the water turned down the fur
rows ran off the lower end of the
field, never reaching plant roots.
About one-sixth "percolated" or
seeped below crop roots, draining
to the water table below the soi
These losses can be reduced
tremendously, the scientists be
lieve, by shortening irrigation
time, by reducing amount of
water in each furrow by increas
ing the soil's water Intake rate.
A sample of soil from the root
zone is one way to tell when
enough water has been applied.
On 13 of the 16 test farms, irri
gation time could have been re
duced from an average of 52
hours down to 41 hours.
Another water-saver, say the
scientists, is to apply plenty of
water at first enough to reach
the end of the furrow in one
fourth the irrigation time. Then
cut the flow down to maintain
just a trickle off the lower end.
Water flow can best be regulated
through use of syphon tubes
from the feeder ditch to furrows.
These plastic or aluminum
"spiles" can be varied in size or
number per furrow for accurate
water control. Such control Is
difficult wilh shovel-controlled
irrigation.
The soil's water intake rate can
be increased by reducing the
width between forrows and flat
tening slope of the furrow. These
steps, says Marsh, increases the
amount of soil surface exposed
to water, decrease irrigation time
and save water.
Others cooperating In the trials
include F. M. Tileston, Ontario,
USDA agricultural research ser
vice, and L. R. Swarner, Boise,
bureau of reclamation.

14MILU0N REASONS WHY
you can always rely on a FORD V-8
SINCE 1932 FORD HAS BUILT MORE
V-8 ENGINES THAN ALL OTHER
MANUFACTURERS COMBINED!
Yes, Ford has turned out more than 14 million
great V-8 engines. The new V-8's for '55 are
coming off the lines in quantity. And this year,
these great engines deliver Trigger-Torque
Power for more responsive performance at all
driving speeds. There are 3 new Ford engines
for '55 . . . 162-h.p. Y-block V-8 . . . 182-h.p.
Y-block Special V-8 . . . and 120-h.p. I-block Six.
ONLY LOW-PRICED CAR WITH
SLEEK THUNDERBIRD STYLING
Only in the '55 Ford will you find the longer,
lower exciting look these fine cars share with
the brilliant Ford Thunderbird. You can have
your choice of 16 beautiful Ford models for '55.
And you can take your pick from a wide
variety of single and two-tone body finishes
and beautifully color-keyed interiors. Many of
the Ford upholstery materials for '65 have
never before been offered in any car.
ONLY LOW-PRICED CAR WITH NEW
ANGLE-POISED RIDE
Rough roads or smooth, they all feel better
when you're in a Ford. Why? Because this year
Ford has re-designed its famous Ball-Joint
Front Suspension. The front springs are now
tilted at an angle so they can absorb road
shock from the front as well as straight up
from beneath the wheels. As a result springs
are sensitive to tiny road flaws, such as paving
joints, as well as really rough roads. It means
smoother going for you over all roads.
