Echo Nine Easily
By Lorry Mollahan
Rolling up their fifth straight
win, Heppner easily smothered
the Echo Cougars 10 to 5 under
the Echo lights. .
Senior weekend took its toll
among the seniors on both sides
leaving the game largely up to
the second string.
Mac Griffith subbed for Jim
Hayes, varsity hurler and made a
good showing striking out eleven
Cougars.
Leading scorer for both sides
was hardhitting Skip Ruhl who
collected three runs for the Mustangs.
The Heppner scoring shows
Jerry Dougherty with two runs,
Ed Olson one, Lyle Jensen one,
Burke Gentry one, John Piper one,
and Jim Morris one.
Each of these Cougars scored
one for Echo; Correa, Ramos,
Jackson, Tolar, and May.

PR Wins Saturday
Track Meet
By Larry Mollahan
Senior weekend really played
havoc with Jim Mallon's track
squad Saturday afternoon in
their competition in the' Pilot
Rock Invitational. t
With practically all the Varsity
gone to Oregon, Oregon State or
Eastern Oregon, Heppner was a
poor third. Pilot Rock scored 792
to Union's 79 to win by a half
point. Heppner scored 19', El
gin 15, Lexington 11, Stanfield 3,
and Helix 3.
The remaining senior was Lyle
Jensen who won fourth in the 100
yard dash the winning time for
the century was 10.3. Jensen
heaved the discus 104 feet to
take second. The best throw was
112 feet.
Skip Ruhl took second in the
440 right behind Titus of Union
whose winning time was 56.6.
Fourth place was the best Ruhl
could do in the broadjump. Horn
of Pilot Rock made the winning
leap of 19" 6W.
Del Piper surprised the Mus
tang squad when he picked up
the pole valting pole and tied
for second. The surprising thing
about it is that Piper never has
done too much pole vaulting. The
winning height was 11 6".
Fifth fell to Piper in the javelin
as McKinney from Union won
this event with a throw of 151' 4".
Mike Monahan, Heppner miler
was good for fourth place to
Jones of Pilot Rock who ran the
distance in 5:08.
This Saturday the Mustangs
will have the chance to regain
their prestige in the Heppner In
vitationai. The annual event for
quite a few years will be held as
usual on the Rodeo field.
