Over The
Tee Cud
By Jackie Labhart
CHEERS! Tee time is here full of rocks we decided to quit
again, and this brewer of golf- i and eat lunch. (We had planned
ing gossip has the old pot per
kin' once more.
Even tho No 1 green (Affec
tionately known as the "sink
hole") is somewhat submerged,
the rest of the course is in peak
condition, thanks to the diligent
efforts of Raymond Ferguson and
his harrow.
A few golfers have been play
ing the course the past few
weeks, but due to most of us
being a little "rusty", our scores
show signs of being a little
"moldy" too. Among those play
Ing have been Dee and Lowell
Gribble, Coramae and Ray Fer
guson, Kay Robinson, Inez Mea
dor, Cork Norene, Vi and Conley
Lanham, Maxlne Gray, Marie
and Clint McQuarrie, Fannie Do
herty, Ed Bennett, Hazel Ma
honey, Velma Glass, Hester Cres
wick and this "aching athlete."
The women's first, somewhat
disorganized, ladies day was
held Tuesday morning. Ten fro
zen females braved a brisk nor
easter to partake in a coffee
break at Dee's before venturing
to the north and the golf course.
Eight of us were there at the
appointed time, but somehow
Cork got her signals crossed and
had proceeded to the links where
she waited, somewhat disgust
edly, for some golfing gals to
show up. Finally she decided no
one was coming so she drove
back up town where she was
informed to go to G r 1 b b 1 e s,
(That's the nice thing about a
small town . . . you can' leave
messages at all the business es
tablishments). She finally arriv
ed, but one "Bonnie" lass was
still missing; so Dee called and
told her to put on some warm
clothes and come running. She
did, but her warm clothes con
sisted of a jacket, heels, hose,
skirt etc which was not what
we had in mind . . . because the
order of the day was to work
on the course.
It seems as tho' a few people
thought we could use some exer
cise, so we did knee bends all
the way down No 4 and No 6
fairways; and as the old saying
goes, "it was strictly for the
birds." (But in this case it was
for rocks and you might say we
really took the fair-way for a
cleaning.) The "rock pickln' wo
men were Coramae Ferguson,
Dee Gribble, Cathy Collins, Hazel
Mahoney, Bonnie Mattoon (she
changed her clothes), Cork Nor
ene, Maxlne Gray, VI Lanham,
Marie McQuarrie and myself.
After two hours and a pickup
to golf but the blustery, bitter,
blowing March atmosphere soon
quelled our spirits.)

Heppner High School
SCOOP
By CAROLYN McDANIEL
The Junior play Is finally un
derway! Mr Pratt, who is the
director of the play, announced
this week that he had selected
the members of the play cast.
Tryouts were held last week and
selections are: Carolyn Carter.
Tom Hayward, Judy Cochell, Tom
Driscoll, Roseann Ayers, Carol
K Anderson, Connie Anderson,
Sam Green, Mickey Van Schoiack,
Jean Collins, Stan Schoonover,
pair of dumbells to strengthen Cliff Green, and Mary Johnston,
her arms 'Now there's one gal
you can't call a "dumb-belle")
. . . . that John Williams, Ted
Palmateer, Paul Koening and
myself are planning a Country
Club party for around the first
of April . . . that the Mahoneys
and Fergusons are planning to
play a lot of golf on their trip
to Phoenix . . . that we certainly
appreciate the heated patio room
and the wonderful service from
Herb Hamilton at the Wishing
Well . . . that "Grlb" was one
under par until the last hole
and then he zigged when he
should have zagged.
That's about all I can see in
the tee leaves this week . . . but
with spring approaching and
things turning green, golfers will
also approach the golf course
greens more profusely than the
budding daffodills; then the tee
cup should be full to the brim.

It sounds like science fiction: traveling across the
continent in hours, New York to London in 6V2,
cutting airline schedules almost in half.
Yet these are routine for jet liners in the jet age
an era people at Standard's research laboratories
have been working toward since the day seventeen
years ago when we fueled the first U. S. jet flight.
Since then our scientists have worked with the
armed forces to perfect fuels and special lubricants
for planes that fly faster than sound, or cruise non
stop around the world. They've also helped engine
designers solve problems of heat and cold; aided
airlines with faster airport fueling systems.
The sum of these years of development has been to
add hours to the traveler's day, days to the tourist's
week. In helping to harness time, as well as putting
petroleum to many other uses for you, the people
at Standard are planning ahead to servo you better.
