Page 8 Heppner Gazette Times, Thursday, February 16, 1956 Heppner Clips Boardman Five But lone Cardinals Saddle the Mustangs By James Monahan Kivalry prevailed Saturday night before a jam-packed crowd on the lone Cardinals floor as a redbird quintet fired back in the second half from a six point de ficit to post a 48-43 win over the Heppner Mustangs. The night before the Mustang quint had played the reserves against the rangy "5" from Boardman and had rolled over the Yellow Jackets 49-31. "Skip" Ruhl dumped in 7 tal lies the first quarter to lead the horses against the Cards as the Mustangs went out in front as much as 12 points as the score stood once at 14-2. Heppner's fighting attack faded offensively and defensively In the second stanza, but Heppner continued to lead with a 25-19 halftime lead. Ruhl dropped through Heppner's final F. G. in the first half with a short running jump while Ernest Drake banked through a Ione's final second period score with 15 se conds to go. lone scored first in the opening period of the second half on a jump shot by Pryse but Ruhl came Lack with a two pointer. J. Piper put in a trusting jump for Heppner's largest leading score of 29-21 for the last half. From here the Cards continued to chop away at the Mustang lead until the red and white crew fin ally went ahead 30-29 on K. Reas pair of free throw shots. Heppner scored only 5 points in the third period but rallied within two points of the lone cagers in the final fourth as they poured in 13 points, lone cut loose for a total of 15 in the last quar ter to keep their lead for the 48 43 final. Earnest Drake took high point honors with a total of 18, while Skip Ruhl tallied 13 for the blue and gold hoopsters. Poor ball handling and bad passes handicapped the Mus tangs tremendously throughout the entire game, but a short pre view of the game was seen in the Friday night contest with liuardman. Heppner dominated the tilt as expected, but little things that are important in win ning tight gall games were not evident. Heppner llirew the ball away a tolal of 31 times against the buzzing bees. A 15-4 first quarter margin was rung up by the first "5". The reserves entered for the second half .play and outscored the var sity by 1 point but were a little more lax on defense and the Yel low Jackets scored 9 points on the subs. Heppner, outscored In the last half duo chiefly to a scoring spree, ran up against the subs who scored only 6 to the "bees" 11. V. Groshens and L. Tibbies took high pint laurels with the small totals of 8 apiece while Board man's Thorpe scored a night high of 11. Echo, who have virtually clin ched the league title with a pre sent 8-0 league record, plays host 1o the Mustang quint this Satur day night and have the nod as favorite. Friday night a visiting ton plays on the home court in which the favorite nod goes to Heppner. Game time here is scheduled for 6:45 for "B" game nd the var sity plays at 8:30. Due to time needed for play offs in league standings which at the time seems likely the Irrigon game has been moved up to Tuesday, Feb. 21. The Mustangs will see action with the Comets on the Horses' home court. Joe "BJ" Mann will lead the streak ing balls of fire with his 6'6" frame and his bag full of shots. o Barley Can Replace Corn in Poultry Rations, OSC Finds Feed barley, now plentiful in Oregon, can be used to replace part of the higher priced corn in poultry rations, reports G. Ii. Arscott, poultry husbandman at Oregon State college. In a series of battery and floor tests with broilers, Arscott found that barley can be used to re place up to one-half the ground corn in all-mash broiler ration when 3 percent stabilized ani mal fat is added as a supplement. Under these conditions, growth and feed efficiency are as good as that obtained with an all corn ration without added fat. Without the added animal fat, only one-fourth of the ground corn could be replaced with bar ley. Arscott is also experimenting with pelleted broiler rations. The results look encouraging, but until experiments are completed he Is recommending barley be substituted for corn in pelleted lations at the same rate as in mash rations. In tests with laying hens, only a very slight decrease in egg pro duction was noted as larger amounts of barley were used to replace corn in both the mash and scratch rations. One thing needs to be watched when barley is used to replace corn, Arscott says. In every case, he found that little moisture became more of a problem as the level of barley in the ration In creased. This should be kept in mind in deciding to replace corn with barley. How can you tell when barley will save you money? Here are Arscott's recommendations based on his ingredient-cost calcula tions: For broiler rations, whenever corn costs $15 a ton more than barley, barley is a good buy. This holds true when corn is between $45 and $75 a ton, and stabilized animal fat is selling for 7 to 11 cents a pound. When stabilized animal fat is priced at 6 cents a pound, a $10 difference between corn and barley would make bar ley a good buy. For layers, Ar scott says barley can be substitu ted for some or all the grain in the mash or scratch when bar lev costs 85 per cent as much as corn. lone Townies Still Fighting for Place In MU Playoffs The lone town basketball team dropped a close contest to Con don Monday night on the lone floor G9 to 77 but played the Con don squad again last night (Wed nesday) in the second game of a series to see which team will get a spot in the district A.

New Airplane-Type Gasoline Introduced Standard Oil Company of Cali fornia today announced the West's first automotive gasoline made with an aviation anti knock fuel formula. This aviation blend is avail able only in Standard's premium grade gasoline. Company engineers say the new gasoline is designed to meet the special performance require ments of modern engines. These special needs are the result of increased compression ratios, radical cylinder head designs, and critical valve operation. Extensive tests in Standard's laboratoiies and on the road indi cate the new gasoline lengthens valve life and reduces combus tion chamber deposits, thus im proving octane performnce. A substantial reduction in wear rate of piston rings and cylinder walls also is reported in the tests. Spokesmen for Standard Oil say the same benefits improve performance of older cars as well. Primary purpose of the new blending, however, is to make possible all the performance de-i signed into modern high-compression engines. o Weekend guests at the Jessie Griffin home were Mr. and Mrs. Norman Griffin and children, Mr. and Mrs. Sie Walker all of Port land, Lillian Cook of Oregon City and Glenn Smith of Lebanon.
