Oyer lone 19-6
By James Monahan
Heppner's blue and gold Mus
tangs finally put the shoe on the
other foot as they handed the
lone Cardinals their first defeat
from Heppner in four years and
toppled them from the ranks of
the undefeated by the score of
19-6.
A solid week of grueling prac
tice and football drills along
with team spirit and co-operation
brought forth the horses' first
win of the season after they had
dropped their opener 41-6
Coach Jim Mallon's Mustangs
lost the flip and took up an im
mediate defensive position. After

the blue and gold gridders put
on a pinching defensive rush
that stopped the Cardinals cold
Quarterback Skip Ruhl then
set his offense to rolling by send
ing halfback Ron McCabe tor
pedoeing off guard for a ten yard
gain that was to no avail due to
a fumble caused Iv a hard
charging tackle,
Tone's captain, Ernest Drake,
used passing strategy to engi
neer his team down to the Hepp
ner 22. Here, at one ofMhc de
ciding points in the game, Cardi
nal quarterback Bill Brannon
fired a pass that was intended
for the lone right end. Safetyman
Skip Ruhl came up fast and
snared the pigskin out of the
air on the twelve yard line and
had a clear field all the way. The
PAT was unsuccessful as kicker
Del Piper got off a low bouncing
kick on the side of his foot
The klckoff was returned up
close to the Cardinal 30 and from
there the lone griders traveled
past the midfield stripe only to
be slopped cold again by the
Mustang's hard charging 5-3 de
fense. Again the Mustangs took pos
session and drove back to the
lone 35, then after an exchange
of fumbles resumed the ground
eating attack. With the Mus
tangs down on the lone 3, an
offside penalty set the horses
back to the 8. Then, on an off
tackle, fullback "Big Jim" Mor
ris scored an insurance T. D. This
lime Del riK'r's kicking sights
were on the beam and the ball
was true to course through the
uprights. The quarter ended with

Release of New
Winter Wheat
Reported By OSC
Release of a new hard red win
ter wheat variety Columbia for
seed increase in Oregon and
Washington promises to help low
rainfall areas swing back into
production of high protein bread
type wheat.
F. E. Price, director of the Ore

tion, announced this week that
Columbia has passed final mill
ing and baking trials and that
registered seed will be released
jointly by experiment stations of
the two states. Actual distribu
tion in Oregon will be handled
by the Oregon Wheat Growers
league at Pendleton.
Columbia is a Rex-Rio by Ne-
bred cross developed at the OSC
Sherman branch experiemnt sta
tion at Moro. It has a bearded,
common type head with brown
chaff and is resistant to both com
mon and dwarf smut. The new
variety has typically fine Turkey

supplies next year. Committee,
chairman D. D. Hill, OSC farm
crops department head, said most
of the 1956 crop will be produced
under irrigation in western Uma
tilla and northern Morrow coun
ties. Next year's production the
goal is 3000 to 4000 bushels in
Oregon will be allocated pri
marily to low rainfall areas
"where is is desirable to swing
from soft wheat production back
to bread-type wheats," Hill
stated. .
Large plantings in recent years
of high-yielding soft white wheat
have piled up a surplus of soft
wheats and brought local short
ages of hard wheats for both do
mestic needs and export markets.
Regional millers now import
most of their bread-type wheat or
flour from the midwest.
Columbia yields 10 to 15 per
cent higher than Rio and other
hard winter varieties that have
been edged aside through inabil
ity to meet yields of the soft
wheats. The new variety is more
winterhardy than the leading soft
wheats and is easier to harvest
due to a slight height advantage
in extremely dry areas.

cepted until October 2o from
young people wanting to visit
other countries.
Three or four Oregonians will
be selected to go abroad In 1956.
Exchangees need only furnish
personal items and camera sup
plies. The IFYE project is a two-

four to , six months and exchan
gees from abroad come to tnis
country on a similar setup.
'In order to be eligible for a
trip, applicants must be between
the ages of 20 and 30, have a

changees from Turkey, England
and Switzerland are now living

Funds for IFYE delegates come
from private donors. For several
years, the Oregon Bankers asso
ciation has sponsored two dele
gates. Four-H clubs throughout
the state have boosted the pro
gram in their county groups and
church and civic organizations
also have contributed.
Before an IFYE leaves the
United States, he is given orien
tation on geography and agricul
ture in the country to be visited.
