HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday. August 21. 1958 Dodgers-Giants Tie For Little League Season Champions The Little League ended their summer season with the Dodg ers and Giants being co-champions. The Giants won the first half of play with a 6 won and 3 loss record and the Dodgers won the second half of play with a 7 won and 2 loss record. A playoff game was cancelled because the field had to be made ready for the fair. The Little League had a good season with large attendance at all games. The donations were greatly appreciated, the money being used to buy needed equip ment for the teams. At a meeting held Monday night, the officers re-elected were president, Rev Lester Boulden; vice president, Wayne Snyder. Some new ideas and plans will be presented later. The Dodgers split their last two games, beating the Giants 12-1 and losing to the Indians 11-9. The Giants beat the Braves 12-4 in the last game. On Friday, August 8, the All Stars went to Pendleton and played the Pendleton Braves los ing in a very good game to the Braves 5-3. The managers here autograph ed balls and certificates which they will present to their All-Stars.

Effects of Truck Strike Being Noted The nearly two weeks old truck strike is beginning to make itself felt in the Heppner area, it is reported today with some merchants finding deliveries of merchandise either held up en tirely or delayed by several days. Most grocery deliveries are still coming through on private trucks but as much as 20 percent of orders are belner cancelled out by some suppliers. Apparently this is due to shortage of supplies in the warehouses and Inability to get shipments In to those points. Delays in the delivery of all types 'of merchandise Is being noted with many shipments be ing three to five days late. At the present time the only public transportation concern serving the Heppner area is the Union Pacific railroad. No settlement of the 11 state strike appears in the offing. 20 Foot Hole Makes Appearance During Night at lone Farm Anybody want a hole In the offering all eligible land on a ground? bid basis: lowest "asking price" There's a new one on the Win- i-. . nmnaroH t Vl Q tAn 1 tila 7nlar rnnph TlpSf TflTie that IV IflllCliria LUIIIMUiVU IV LI il 1 1 1 1 (il 1 1 1 V l ' " ' " - rate established for such land by, nobody has been able to figure scheduled at Washington, D C, the county ASC committee. out how or why it got there.
