By this time, the headlights are getting dim. And of course, at this time also, another bull elk jumped into the road in front of us and just stood there staring at us about 50 yards away. Sure had the trigger-finger Itch. . . We passed Government Camp, and once more we have no bat tery. I won't bore you with the fine details, but somehow we came to the fork, met another car who asked directions of us and discovered from our quest ioner that we were leaking oil badly. Sure enough, there was a good -sized hole In the oil pan. Well, we jammed a soap plug into it, and retraced our wheels to Government Camp where 2 camps sold us 2 quarts of oil, and we were again on our way. Except that when we got to the Kinzua cut-off, the engine died. By this time, we had no head lights at all and are driving by the flashlight I am holding out the window. After waiting about half an hour for a car to come by decided to walk the 2 and a half miles back to Govern ment Camp to get these fellows to give us a tow. He started out at 5 minutes of 9:00 and at 10 minutes past eleven, they were back having taken the wrong turn and walked a mile or so out of his way. , . They pushed us up the hill, all to no avail, turned us around, and pushed us down the hill, and as we reached the cut-off once more, at the LAST possible mo ment, the motor started. There wasn't enough juice In that bat tery to fire all the cylinders so drove with one foot on the gas and the other on the brake, with me lighting the way with the flashlight. It was 13 miles to the highway, and then 9 miles to Hardman: this was Tuesday night, is to be In the hospital Wednesday morning, there was a storm brewing, and I am so night-blind I couldn't see where I was directing the flashlight. He directed the light by telling me which way to turn It. Need I say that the trip Into Hardman was HARROWING? We arrived there about 12:30 A M, and after almost beating the man's door down, got a battery and were on our way to HEPP NER arriving just before 1:00 to find had no vacancy. We stopped In the ONE place of business open a tavern and when we said we wanted a drink of WHISKEY and he said he served nothing but beer (to which I am allergic) we drank a beer. And went to the Motel which had ONE vacan cy. The next morning we had the battery charged, and by the time had called the hospital and we had returned the battery we had borrowed the night before from the man in Hardman, it was getting on toward noon, and we COULDN'T be on the road after dark so we took off for Portland stopping once in The Dalles to replace our soap plug and get some more oil and gas. I told I would WRITE you the story of our adventures as it still wasn't very funny at the time. I knew it would be later, but my humor was a little strained that Wednesday morn ing. We arrived home without further event and took stock of our miseries: a new generator, a new oil pan, and a new lock Lee Cornel ison scored the first Lex touchdown as he punched holes in a faltering Helix line. Hank Pointer scored the second touchdown for Lex on a pass from Laddie Henderson, At half time the score was 14 to 12 in favor of Helix, but Cornelison scored twice more in the last half on long runs to keep the i Jackrabbits In the game.
