fur Madras, and the Saturday
nijiht battle ended 58 50 for the
Kuifa. In each game, though, the
Mustangs ttM an early lead be
fnre fading later in the contests.
With only three minutes left
to play In the third quarter of
the second game, the Heppner
five had an 18 polnt lead over
the BuffH, 47-29. before falter
ing as the determined visitors
started to pour on the coal. While
the Madras rally was In pro
Kress, the tiring Mustangs made
only three points In the last 11
minutes of the game and none
in the fourth period. In the
same 11 minutes Madras made
30 points.
Black-headed Mike Clements,
a six foot sophomore, capped the
death knell lor Heppner wnen
he hit a layln and drilled two
long pushers midway in the
fourth period. The first long shot
tied the score at 50-50 and the
second was the co-ahead bucket.
From then on, the Mustangs
were left at the post.
Sophomores Lee Padberg and
Dour Dubuque figured strongly
in tho good start for the Mus
tangs when they picked up
seven of the team's 13 points
in the first quarter of the hatur
tiny night game. Dick Springer
and Sonny Biuaie aiso ngurea
n the scoring in that penoa
With a 13-10 lead going into
the second quarter, the Mus
tangs started finding the range.
Shan Applegate banked six
points in a row, four on free
throws without a miss and two
more points on a fast break
layln. Bruce Moyer sank two
free throws and the count mov
ed to 21-10 for Heppner.
Biddle swished a pair from
deep corner in the next two
minutes and Heppner was in
front, 25-11. At this point, though,
the White Buffs took command
for the rest of the quarter, prof
iting by ragged Heppner pass
ing. With deadly young Clem
ents zeroing In, aided by an
other sleek guard, Kanin Smith,
the Buffs pulled within five
points by halftime, 30-25.
Tadberg, Springer, Biddle,
Moyer and Applegate all con
tributed a sparkling five min
utes for Heppner at the start of
the third quarter to roll the
tally to 47-2!) before the tide
turned. The fast break clicked
and the points piled up steadily
for Heppner until they ran out of
gas midway in the quarter. They
seemed to tiro then perceptibly
and their game went to pieces
with a rash of bad passing and
over anxiety.
But it didn't take long In
watching the Mustangs on the
opening night, Friday, to de
termine that Heppner has the
maklnrs of a fine ball club this

Springer broke the Heppner

The sizeable wildly-cheering
turnout of local fans who saw
the games were disappointed
that tho Mustanes didn't win
after piling up the early leads,
but they had no reason to be
discouraged. The Heppner squad
turned In fine performances ex

casion, a common malady with
the last DreaK.
Coach Bob Cantonwlne had
said early this year that he felt
sophomores might hold the key
to the outcome of the season. If
this Is true, the prospect does
not appear bad because Pad
berg played real good ball
games and captured top scor
ing honors, and Doug Dubuque
came through with some steady
work and will be a real cog in
the club with a little more ex
perience. Friday
