Page 8 Mustangs Split In First Week Of Hoop Play By Jim Morris The Heppner high school Must angs got their 1957-51 basketball season in full swing Friday and Saturday as they came out of two contests with a 1-1 record. In the Friday night outing the Horsemen took St. Joseph's Blue- jays to a 42-37 cleaning only aft er a long struggle. The 'Jays Jumped to a 5-3 first period lead and by virtue of the Mustang's "missing eye" were able to main tain a 16-13 halftime lead. After the third panel whistle the Mustangs spurted back with a renewed determination to take the contest and led by guard Ed Groshens they picked up a 29-26 lead by the end of the third stanza. From here on the Must ang's hustle was too much for the luckless Bluejays. Scoring: Heppner: Alderman, 5; Driscoll 4; Ruhl 3; Robinson 7; Morris 5; Prock 2: Groshens 15: Flue 1. St. Joseph: Perry 5; Secton 8; Groncer 10: Quampts 8; Olle 6. Heppner's basketball quintet hit their first snag or the still young season on Saturday when thev collided with an Arlington Honker five who took a hard earned victory away from the Mustangs on a 33-27 count. The Mustang offense seemed to click all through the game but the hoopsters Just couldn't seem to find their ranee as thev hit only 9 out of 67 in the shooting department. It was only the Must ang's good defensive maneuvers that kept them in the game until the last second. Scorlne: Heppner: Alderman 2; Driscoll 2; Ruhl 6; Robinson 3; Morris 3; Prock 2; Laughlln 2 Groshens 7. Arlington: Farley 7; Sharrad 3; Burd 7; Anderson 2; McClaskey 12; mtyjonn i. - o New Feed Lot (Continued from Page 1) Though he is now handling 620 cattle, he plans to feed out a reg ular bunch of 400 in four lots the year around with the feeding period to be about 120 days. Bergevln stated that he had al ways felt that this area was ideal for such feeding operations as almost everything that is used in the operation is, or can bo, available locally. Much of it can be grown on his own ranch or purchased from neighbors with only minerals and molasses com ing from outside the area. Others in this area are also do ing some feeding but their opera tions are reportedly on a dif ferent basis. They include Delb ert Emert, lone; the Barratt ran ches, Heppner; Harold Wright, Ruggs; and the Cohn feed lot on Butter creek. Many other ranch ers run cattle, but most of them raise them rather than finish feed the animals.
