Director Fred Martin pointed out the necessity for establishing definite criteria to provide for (lie runs so that it would not "get out of hand." It was suggested by Supt.

A motion was passed that an activity bus be provided for Heppner to Lexington, provided it meets the established criteria. Activity bus runs will be subject to board approval and must meet the financial capacity of the budget, it was decided.

Cards to Travel For Grid Opener To Culver High Last year's state B-2 football runnersup the lone Cardinals will travel to Culver Friday for their opening game of the 1962 season and the non-league con test is due to start at 2 p.m. Coach Glenn Biehl, who lost such stars as Wayne Hams, Ken Nelson, Jerry Davidson, Joe Palmer and Tom Pointer by graduation, has juggled his team considerably in early practices to fill the big gaps. Ron Crabtree, outstanding end last year, is at the quarterback spot this year replacing Hams. Les Madden, guard on the Morrow-Umatilla champion team in the 1961 season, has been moved to halfback. Both of these men are seniors. Jim Martin, also a senior, may see some duty at halfback from his regular end position. Other senior veterans who probably will hold to their fam iliar positions are Marvm Pad berg, guard; Gary Morgan, cen ter; and Rollie Ekstrom, end. Some bad news hit the team this week when Crabtree dislo cated a wrist and is out of prac tice for the week. Whether he will get to play in the opener was still uncertain at this writ ing. Seniors coming out for the first time this year are Bill Akers, guard; and Mancel Townsend, center. Junior lettermen back include Tom Heimbigner, end, and Ken Klinger, halfback. Two more juniors who did not turn out last year are Steve Lindstrom and John Rea, both guards. Two sophomore lettermen are Joe Halvorsen, guard, and Bob DeSpain, halfback. Adding substance to the squad is a good contingent of fresh men, including Bob Crum, Mark Halvorsen, Jay Ball and Tim Tullis, all backs; John McElli gott, guard; and Joe Hausler and Mike Palmer, ends. Robert Emert is manager. The Cardinals have a six game schedule, but they .do not open at home until October 5, after two games away and one week-end idle. Four of the con tests are league games, begin ning with the battle with highly rated Riverside at Boardman at 2:30 on September 25. First home game will be with Umapine at 2:30 October 5, and then the Cards take to the road again to meet Helix there at 2:30 October 19. Echo is at lone on October 26, also at 2:30. All of these games are league coun ters. Final game is set with Wish ram at lone on November 2, at 2:30, a non-conference tilt.

Mr. and Mrs. Walter Edger returned Friday after a two weeks' vacation trip to Califor nia and return via the Oregon coast. They went to Lake Tahoe and enjoyed it there, although found it crowded. They also went to Yosemite National Park for three days and were impres sed by everything but the short age of accommodations. They re turned north via Redding and Red Bluffs before going west to hit highway 101 to come up the coast. New stretches of Oregon highway made this a very plea sant and enoyable drive despite the patches of fog encountered in the mornings. depends on how the backfield "jells." They have been working on timing and ball handling with the lineup juggled from last year. He feels that Culver will give them a tough ball game. Last year the Cards downed them, 35-21, in a hard battle. River side looks good to the lone coach with good size and experience.
