6- HEPPNER GA2ETTE-TIMES. Thursday. January 23, 1958 Mustangs Lose Hard Fought Games Against Echo And Stanfield Teams The Mustangs played three and a half quarters of good ball against both Echo and Stanfleld, but the last minutes were bad for them and they ended up losing both games by almost identical scores: 51-43 and 51 42. Heppner went into the Echo eame tied for first place in the league and hoping to break the jinx that Echo has had on Hep pner teams for many years. The first half was fairly close except for the middle of tne sec ond period when Echo got points ahead. Heppner came right back as good as ever and mJjfLpendent Insurance AGENT is -IIKVU YOU Jllll' HI tr 'BYE! We're glad to welcome back Our helper; Mrs Wise!

RUGGLES INSURANCE AGENCY HEPPNER, OREGON Phone 6-9625 Box 611 ORBIT HEARING Who wouldn't be surprised to hear with a pair of glasses you can't see through (not blind folded, anyway). The fact is this astonished girl is hearing every thing with nothing in her ears, thanks to Sonotone's new bone conduction eyeglass hearing aid. Although nothing is worn in either ear, you can use both ears to hear sounds from every direction around you. This is binaural, or orbit, hearing, the same way that persons with nor mal hearing listen. Yet every thing is concealed in stylish, prescription-fitted glasses. PP-130 MR. HARRY BOSTRON Manager of Sonotone of Walla Walla will be at the HEPPNER HOTEL For Service and Fittingi JANUARY 29 From 2 to 7 p. m. shortened the lead to 3 points at the half, 20 to 23. The second half saw the Mus tangs play good steady ball and were down only two points at the end of the third stanza. In the first part of the final quarter Heppner took a lead of 36-34 and it was a see-saw battle until the score was 39-41 Echo leading. The next few minutes went by without Heppner scoring and the Cougers taking a 39-45 lead. The game was all but over as the Mustangs tried but could not catch up and they lost, 43-51 with the jinx still holding. High for Heppner was Groshens with 14 while high for Echo was Cam pbell with 188. At Stanfield the Mustangs were trying their hardest and they really had Stanfield scared as they took a 14-11 first quart er lead and had them 19-14 in the middle of the second per iod. Stanfield came clawing back and before the Mustangs knew what hit them, they were behind 28-25 at halftime. After the halftime session, the Mustangs began to look like a team again and pulled up to within one point at the end of the third stanza with the score of 34-35. The next few minutes saw the lead change a dozen times. Then, just as the night before, the Heppner team was stopped dead but Stanfield kept pouring them in and went on to win by 51-42. Top scorer was Moms with 15 and Ruhl next with 12. Evans was tops for Stan field with 22. The B squad won a come from behind with Echd 39-33 but lost to Stanfield 14 to 3G.
