Mustangs Break .
Losing Streak,
Beat Lexington
By Jim Morris
LEXINGTON
Heppner's Mustangs finally got
their foul shooting average above
50 on Friday, January 18, as
they bopped the Lexington Jack
rabbits by a score of 48-40.
The Mustancs opened the game
by taking a commanding 9-6'lead
in the first quarter. In the second
stanza the teams fought on even
terms an both scored eight to
leave the score 17-14 at the half.
The horsemen came back
strong in the third period and by
the end of that quadrant they
had galloped to a 36-22 edge.
The Jackrabbits tried a full
court press in the last period, but
the ball handling of the Mus
tangs proved to be too much for
the 'Rabbits as they went down
to defeat.

ECHO
The Heppner high school Mus
tangs took to the road, Saturday,
January 19, as they traveled to
Echo to take on the high-ranking
Cougars and ended up by getting
"clawed" 58-31.
The Cougars and the Horsemen
fought on even terms in the first
quarter as neither team could
seem to get their offenses to
click. The quadrant ended 14-11
in favor of Echo. In the second
panel the Mustangs dropped in
8 points to the 10 for the Cougars.
After the half the Echo quint
seemed to hit their old pace and
really rolled as they held the
Mustangs to 6 while they potted
16 for themselves. In the last
stanza the Mustangs completely
folded under the pressure of the
Cougars and they never could
get back into the game.

Dog Owners Told
Rabies Control
Doe owners must be alert to
presence of rabies In Oregon, the
state aepartment oi agriculture
said today. The source of rabies
in the Bend area has not been
traced and may have originated
elsewhere in Oregon, officials
state.
A rabid cat was found In Bend
recently. Authorities instituted
complete control measures and
there is hope of preventing the
spread to other areas.
At this time all animal bites of
humans should be reported to a
physician immediately. Animais
bitten or havine fought witn
strays should be taken to a local
veterinarian promptly. Rabies
can be prevented by inoculation
of animals prior to infection for a
nominal sum.
Orecon residents are cautioned
against taking unvaccinated pets
into the Bend area at present and
against removing animals from
the Quarantined area until the
disease is controlled. Report
strays to authorities and do not
acquire any pets from unknown
sources at this time.
