HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thuraday, January I 1S5 Mustangs Take Two From St Joe By NEAL PENLAND Heppner took two games over the weekend from St Joseph of Pendleton. On Friday night the Mustangs squeezed by 55-53 at Pendleton and on Saturday night on the home court took a 48-40 game. Friday night the game took off at a good pace but in the second quarter the Mustangs really settled down and came up with a 25-16 half time score. Again In the third period they racked up more points but In the fourth quarter Heppner coasted while St Joe played a better game. Dick Ruhl took the Initiative for Heppner Friday night. He set up plays, was high scorer and played a superlative defense. Along with Ruhl on defense were Dick Robison and Bob Huffman. Saturday night on there home court the boys played better ball than the night before. They really started at a fast pace and at the end of the first quarter Heppner led 12-3. All through the game Heppner was "on". In the fourth quarter, St Joe came to life but too late to beat the Mustangs. Again on defense and offense Ruhl and Robison showed top. FRI HEPPNER ST JOE F.

More new cases of TB were found in Oregon in 1958 than in 1957, pointing up the contin uing necessity of supporting the fight against the disease. The sale of Christmas seals finances much of the case-finding and research on TB. Morrow county residents who have not yet made their dona tions are urged to contribute to the local Christmas seal sale chairmen, who are Mrs Gary Tullis, lone; Mrs Randy Lott, Lexington; Mrs Ruth Coy, Irri gon; Mrs Margaret Kuhn, Board- man; and Mrs L E Dick, Jr, Heppner. Since most of the money re ceived from the seal sale remains in Morrow county many benefits are received locally. This year a cone was purchased for the X-ray unit In the Pioneer Mem orial hospital which is used for TB chest X-rays, to pinpoint the area exposed to the X-ray. The X-ray service Is used by approxi mately 250 people a year, an other service to Morrow county people financed through the sale of seals. Mrs Velma Glass has distribu ted TB literature to schools in the county to be used in con nection with health classes. The pamphlets are attractively writ ten and illustrated, with differ- levels through high school. The cost of testing material and the testing program are yet another expense borne by the seal sale fund. Although the number of new cases reported each year In the state remains fairly constant, new treatment methods are re ducing the number of months necessary to arrest the disease. For this reason, the number of cases being treated In the state tuberculosis hospitals Is smaller than it was only a few years ago. Finding more victims in the early stages of the disease also short ens their stay in the hospital. Since TB is merely arrested and not cured, continuing vigilance on the part of those who have had it is necessary. They and members of their families also must be tested occasionally to insure their freedom from the disease. TB is a giant among disease, only a good health program I keeps it from infecting more . 1 1 r t Guests at the home of Mr and nfa NOUC n KNPl Mrs Arnold Melby over the New LUvUl llClfJ III UIIW iYear's holiday were her brother land family, Mr and Mrs Stan Mrs Toe Loss and children of Sherwood and four children of Arlington spent Christmas with Coqullle.

In discussing this Increase, Vernon A Welo of the LaGrande district office of the Social Security Administra tion, points out that protection for families In the form of monthly income has become more and more significant with each change In the social secur ity law. From the early days of the act, when no family could receive more than $80 a month, to the new maximum of $254 a month, these provisions have grown into a realistic approach to problems a family faces when a worker retires, dies, or becomes permanently disabled. Mr Welo emphasizes that in all planning for the years ahead, a family must face the possibility of death, long illness, or insuf ficient resources after retirement of the breadwinner. Social secur ity benefits do not and should not be expected to replace, dollar for dollar, the income a worker and his family can earn, but they can and should be used as a base in planning for the future. A person who knows how much he and his family will receive if he retires, becomes disabled, or dies is a person who can plan carefully to round out that In come and use these benefits as a firm foundation for his family's needs. Knowing what he can ex pect from social security, he should strive to add insurance, savings, investments, etc, to adequately provide for his family- Mr Welo advises all workers ceive more or less than yours, All payments are based upon the worker's average monthly earn ings." Following are some examples of typical family benefits now payable: Present benefit $78.50; new benefit $84. Present family maxi mum $160; new family maxi mum $165.50. Present benefit $88.50, new benefit $95. Present family maxi mum $200, new family maxi mum $206.50. Present benefit $108.50, new benefit $116. Present family maximum $200, new family maximum $254. In amending the provisions for family payments, the new law now provides for payments to aged dependent parents of de ceased workers as well as to their widows, widowers and children. In addition, a totally disabled qualified worker's de-; pendents may now receive monthly payments when he has reached the age of 50, instead ' of waiting until he is 65 as in the past. Mr and Mrs Ambrose Chapin returned home New Year's day after a weeks visit with their daughter and son-in-law, Mr and Mrs Clayton Slyter in Seatle. Mr and Mrs Joe Hughes, Bill Hughes, Tom Hughes, Mrs Anne McNamee, James P McNamee and Mr and Mrs W E Hughes were in Pendleton Friday to at tend the funeral of William J to find out how much they can!
