This was Umatilla's first defeat and Heppner's fourth straight league win which plac es the Mustangs on top in dist rict 7B, and tied with Stanfield for first in the Cay use league. The Vikings of Umatilla quick ly got on the scoreboard by go ing around left end on the sec ond play of the game for 60 yards. They again scored in the first quarter on a 6 yard plunge that climaxed another 60 yard drive, but were unable to go through the Mustang line for the extra points. The Mustarigers came back in the second quarter with a 27 yard Morris to Ruhl pass in tfte end zone. Morris plowed through for the extra point. The relief was fihort lived, however, when the Horsemen again rang up six points on a 45 yard pass In trie dosing minutes of the first half. The score looked bad at half lime, 19-7 against Heppner. The second half was all Must ang, as Ruh' started it off inter cepting a Viking pass and run ning it back 35 yards for a TD. with a Key block coming from Kay Corbin. Morris carrlei the pigskin across for the extra point. Len Ray Schwarz made a perfect on tide kick that enabled the Mustangs to get the bail and march down the field for another cure that put Heppner ahead for the first time, with Ruhl going t cross from 4 yards out. Morris again boomed across for the ex tra point. Heppner kicked off ag ain and held Umatilla forcing them to kick. The Horsemen then picked up the ball and marched G5 yards fcr their clinching touchdown, with Morris going over Horn 8 yards out, and Ruhl going over for the extra point. The game ended with a great victory for the Mustangs, 28-19. The outstanding player on the Umatilla Vikings was Delbert Hail who played an outstanding game in spite of a very sore arm. Delbert made the 60 yard run fn the opening minutes of play, giv ing the Vikings the first TD. He also made several other notable yardage gains. THE D.

Nationally, the feed grain buildup is expected to leave re cord carryovers on hand next fall. While the nation's corn acre age this year is 13 percent smal ler than 10 years ago, the nation's grain sorghum acreage is 2Vi times as large and the barley acreage has, practically doubled in the past 10 years, the econo mists report in the current issue of OSC's Oregon Farm and Mark et Outlook. Oregon hay supplies for 1958 feeding season probably will be at least as large this year, the ec onomists say. Unless unusually harsh weather lengthens this winter's feeding season, the car ryover of hay next summer is likely to increase again, accord ing to the OSC outlook report. The outlook circular also ex amines the 1958 picture for wheat, r.in UvnuiS ink nnH thP S()., Bmk c (es of the drcular are available from local county extension offices. 0 OSMINS ARE GRANDPARENTS Mr. and Mrs. Merle Plank of Salem are the parents of a son born October 5.

Arthur King, Oregon State col lege conservation specialist in charge of contest arrangements, says the contest is the first of its kind in the Northwest and probably in the nation. It is spon sored by the board of directors of. the Oregon Association of Soil Conservation Districts and the Pacific Supply cooperative. Each of Oregon's 55 soil con servation districts will be eligible to enter one team. Districts have now been established in 31 Ore gon counties and embrace 80 per cent of the state's farm acreage, according to Ralph Wilson, Sal em, president of the SCD associa tion. Cash awards offered by the co operative include $100 for first place team and other awards for high rating teams and individual scores. The contest precedes the annual meeting of the SCD as sociation at Tillamook November 21 and 22. Kaig and Murray Dawson, OSC soil scientist, will select soil sites for judging and will be in charge oi scoring contestants against the official Oregon soil judging card recently developed at the college. Soil wiill be judged on easily- recognized characteristics such as depth color, texture, slope, tilth, and susceptibility to erosion. From this information, plus known chemical analyses, con testants will make recommenda tions for soil use and needed im provements. Understanding of this basic in formation for developing farm plans, King says, is complicated by the fact that Oregon has the widest range of soil types of any tate in the nation. Taxable Value of Property in Oregon Shows Big Climb Reappraisals, improvement in assessment practices and normal growth have Increased the true cp.sh value of taxable property in Oregon by nearly $309,000,000, the the State Tax Commission report ed recently. The increase, bringing the total of taxable property to $6,192,956. 607,97, was recorded in the com mission's annual summary of property valuations and includes official totals of each county and utility values assessed by the commission. It marks the first time in state history that valua tions in this area have topped the six billion mark. The complete summary shows that for the same period, ending January 1, 1957, that assessed values had risen by $106,000,000 in all classes of property, includ ing nearly $30,000,000 increase in utility property. u II k Limited Quantity- First Come PASSENGER TIRES 5 670-15 tube nylon 15.95 4 650-16 truck ny. 6 25.95 13 710-15 tube nylon 17.95 3 700-15 truck roy. 6 ...29.95 11 670-15 tube rayon 13.95 2 700-15 truck ny. 6 31.95 14 670-15 tube ray. wh...l7.95 2 700-16 truck ray. -.31.95 4 710-15 tube ray. 15.95 3 700-16 truck ny 33.95 2 710-15 tube ray. wh... 18.95 5 825-20 rib 10 58.95 3 760-15. tube ray 17.95 1 900-20 rib 10 73.95 8 670-15 tbls. ny 19.95 4 1000-20 rib 12 ...89.95 5 710-15 tbls. ny 21.9$ 5 1000-22 rib 12 94.95 HARVEST SPECIAL 6 Volt Battery N. MAIN STREET Increased values of locally as sessed properties are attributed to normal growth factors, reapprais al of properties under the state supervision and improved pract ices by local assessors, Tax Com mission chairman S W. Horn said. The increase in state-assessed utilities is due to expanded plants and facilities, Horn ex plained. He said several major utility company projects have been added to the tax rolls this year, chief of these is the new natural gas pipeline into Oregon. The increase in true cash value for all utility companies over last year is $96,579,610, Horn said. Every county assesses at a lev el below the true cash value of jroperty subject to taxation . and tax bills are based on a ratio as signed each county by the State Tax Commission. The average as sessment rate for the state last year was 34.773 percent of true cash value. They range from 22 percent in Polk county to 48 in Multnomah county. o Local News In Brief Bert Darnielle of Lexington is a new janitor at Pioneer Memor ial hospital.
