Page 6 Heppner Gazette Times, Thursday, September 22, 1955 Mustangs Drop Grid Opener 41-6 To Pilot Rock By Jameg Monahan Heppner's Mustangs dropped their opening game to a power ful Pilot Rock team to the tune of 41-6 in an afternoon tilt last Thursday. The score of 41-6 demands an explanation on the part of the Mustang team, and on behalf of the team, this scribe can only say that the team forgot the basic fundamentals of a good football game. In the opening minutes of the game the horses of Ileppner dis played some good football as they held the Pilot gridders on a series of line smashes and pass plays. In the latter part of the first period, fumbling and lack of first downs gave the ball to Pilot Rock deep in the Mustang's territory. The Rockets covered ground in Jong gains when they executed a series of end runs which sent them over into pay dirt in the closing minutes of the first period. Again, in the early part of the second stanza, the Rockets push ed the pigskin into the end zone and completed the try for extra point to give them a 13-0 lead. With but minutes left in the first half the Rock Gridders got off to another touchdown drive and, as the gun sounded, the Rocks sported a 20-0 margin. , Injuries plagued the Mustangs in the third quarter as Captain Ed Brosnan suffered a bruised lip, while Dick Ruhl could see no further action in the second half due to a head injury suffered from an attempt to block a kick. The fired up Rockets took the field again in the second half with the same enthusiasm that they did in the first. Long passes in the third section of play netted the Pilot Rock footballers one more quick TD and the PAT was good. The fourth and final quarter of play saw the Mustangs trailing 27-0. The pilots took to the air again and found paydirt twice in the last period, while the Mus tangs rolled across just one. This was a pass play from Tibbies to end Vic Groshens. A blocked kick left the score at 41-6 as the final gun sounded. . This weekend lone plays host to the Mustangs and the blue and gold gridders ate out to avenge two defeats and one tie at the nands or the Cardinals in the last three years. Although the Redbirds have been victori ous so far this year with a 19 11 win over the Mac Hi "B" squad the Mustangs hope to rack up a score In t he win column. Injuries are still with the "Horses of Ileppner" as this week's scrimmage has left seve ral of the backs and linemen on the casualty list. Jerry Dougherty, converted center, has a knee in jury that has slowed him down considerably. Not only has the nightly practice left many mem bers on the recuperating list but also the Pilot Rock game has slowed the Mustangs down. if 5 V f 3 t J A t ' it' 't 4 -1 CHICAGO The world's first "technological circus" featuring huge earthmovers like this 37 ton scraper with beautiful girl jockeys, singers, dancers, aerialists, elephants and horses is presented four times daily at General Motors' fabulous Powerama, the big free show on Chicago's lakefront through Sept. 23.

Minor Surgery Howard Rose, Ileppner, dismissed; Vicky I New Portable Stall For Sows Prevents Big Pig Crushing Sow-crushing of baby pigs is nearly impossible with a port able farrowing stall developed by Tom Johnson, Oregon State col lege animal husbandman. Testing of the simple device showed no baby pig loss up to three weeks after farrowing. De tailed plans . and building in structions will be available soon from county extension agents or the OSC bulletin clerk. The stall is made from two partitions wide enough to con fine the sow comfortably yet narrow enough to keep her on her underside before she rolls into nursing position. Space be tween the bottom of the partitions and the ground permits baby pigs to move about freely. Stalls are easily adjustable to handle different size sows. Heat lamps suspended over the area outside the "sow" portion of the stall warm and attract baby pigs while they are not nursing, Tests indicate sows should be placed in the stall a dty or two before farrowing. Stalls are roomy enough for daily feeding and watering, but Johnson sug gests 15-minute exercising twice daily. The first two days after birth is the critical period for death from crushing. After that, the sow and litter can usually be re moved to a regular farrowing pen. Besides stopping deaths from crushing, Johnson cites other ad vantages of the stall: 1. Less chilling. Compact de sign reduces drafts between pigs and heat lamps. 2. More handling ease, Can tankerous sows usually settle down quickly and quietly. County Agent News -. Last fall and winter, many in quiries were made by wheat far mers and organizations interested in wheat, in the possible produc tion of durum in the Pacific Northwest. This interest was brought about with a short crop in the durum producing areas and a premium offered for this wheat which is used for macaroni products. Kenneth Kamerrer, in the Pine City community, secured 10 .bushels of Mindum Durum from North Dakota which was seeded on thirteen acres on the Kamerrer farm. The field was one of the poorer fields that had been diverted from wheat and even with this poor field and the poor year the durum yielded 10 bushels per acre. The weight per bushel on this durum was 59.5 pounds with a protein test of 17.35. Turkey wheat grown on the same farm tested 60 pounds per bushel with a 10 protein test. The county agent sent a sample of this durum to the Pa cific Northwest Crop Improve ment Assoc. for a laboratory test to determine its qualities for macaroni products, The test made by Crown Mills at Portland proved so satisfactory that the company has asked Mr. Kamerrer to provide them with the entire production of 130 bushels so that a commercial milling test can be completed and the end product made into macaroni products. Mr. Kamerrer will deliver this wheat to Portland within the next few days with the hope that the durum will prove satisfactory for macaroni products and that there will be a demand for fur ther production. The sample brought in to this office ap-t peared to be suitable for a No. 1 Amber Durum grade with the kernels hard and vitreous. Local News In Brief Mr. J. F.
