It's been three months since our last chat with you, but we're back now, swinging those rock hammers and spinning de lightful mineral yarns again. Under discussion at our Sep tember meeting was the advis ability of having a rock display case in the court house. After all, rockhounding Is such an interest ing hobby that we want to share it with everyone. By the way, that word "hobby" brings lis a much discussed subject: are we a hoby or social club? Dur ing 362 days of the year we are considered a hobby, but, for some reason, the other three days we are classified as "a social club! What are we? Among some of the interesting items at our meeting was an other beautiful agate-top coffee table made by Doc and Mrs. Babb of material from Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, California, New Mexico, Brazil, and South Africa. If you saw the rock hounds display at the county fair this year you saw another Babb's table top made entirely of Morrow county material . . . and it was lovely! Must share with you a little of the regional genvand mineral show held at the Seattle World s Fair display hall two weeks ago. One thing that was rather sur prising was the large amount of material from Oregon. Saw the Gem Stone Carousel, a charming merry-go-round, de signed and built over 18 months time by Glenn Moreland of Grants Pass. It was a working model, with each horse fashion ed from a different material and moving up and down as the unit revolved. Sterling silver was used for the carousel crown and tiny stirrups. After closely scrutinizing dis play cases of blue agate, emer ald, sapphires, Montana agate, chrysocolla, jade and many others, we suddenly came upon a case which almost threw us ijr n n n w urn irrirTiffi rn a fill CHEVROLET Phone 676-9921 Cardinals Run Wild for 59-7 Win over Umapine With their greatest scoring display of the season, Ione's football team clobbered Uma pine in the first home game of the year for the Cardinals Fri day afternoon, 59-7. This was their second league victory and third straight win of the unde feated Cards this year. Ken Klinger counted six touch downs by himself, going 14, 9 and dl yards on runs and catclv ing three passes for the others, One pass-run play covered 63 yards with Quarterback Ron trabtree on the pitching end. Crabtree threw three passes that brought touchdowns and flipped two others that were good for extra points. He made another contribution to the big score when he intercepted a Umapine pass and zipped 63 yards to tally. Bob DeSpain went around end in the fourth quarter for a touch down, and Jim Martin took a pass from Crabtree for a tally in the second period. Extra points were made bv Roland Ekstrom on pass recep tions, DeSpain and by Tom Heim bigner who kicked the extra point after the final touchdown. Gary Trump of Umapine pass ed to Jim Schubert for 20 yards nad the visitors' only touch down in the fourth period. Con version point also came on a pass between the same pair. Coach Glenn Biehl used all his players in the contest and even freshmen got in plenty of action, This failed to slow the lone offense, though, and the team rolled over the visitors. Ione's total offense gained a whopping 501 yards to 266 for Umapine. Rushing yardage fav ored the winners, 374 to 114. This week the Cardinals are idle again before going to Helix there Friday, October 19. then a second look brought forth the laughs. It was arrang ed by Mrs. Helen Fulmer as a "Scientific Aid to the Identifi cation of Minerals with apolo gies to Dana." Edward S. Dana, by the way, was the author of a highly technical textbook of mineralogy. At any rate Mrs. Fulmer had a new and less tech nical approach to minerals; for instance, the mineral trlpolite was represented by three match es laid on a piece of white paper and labeled "triple-lite;" a small slice of rye bread was called rhyolite; crazy lace was the name given to a pretty lace bow; a smashed quart jar was called "mutilated quartz;" a small plastic garden gate car ried the name "agate;" sodalite was represented by a box of soda and a light bulb; and her ex ample of a pseudomorph was a small china dog chasing a china cat and labeled "canine-lte after feline-ite." Some displays were made up entirely of cut and polished ma terial and some were a com bination of the rough naturul rock and cut and polished speci mens of same. But I still get a good laugh over Mrs. Fulmer's unique display and a thrill when remembering Glenn Moreland's Carousel and the matchless color and flawless quality of the chrys ocolla In the ring and bolo tie settings worn by Walt Larson of Seattle. The club members will be guests of the Hubert Wilsons in their newly completed ree reation room for the October 27 meeting.

It was the third straight win toe the boys of Coach Jim Sutherland. ihe wild early scoring plunge found the Mustangs capitalizing on the breaks of the game. Hepp ner recovered a Tiger fumble on the Stanfield 27 and drove to the five on a series of plavs. At that point Ken Smith shot a pass to Larry Muessig that brought the first six points. Smith ran the extra point. Another Tiger fumble, this time on their 17, was picked up by John Porter who ran it over for the second Mustang touch down. Smith again added the point. With 14 points to their credit and the game barely underway, the Mustangs were still not fin ished. The Tigers tried to move from deep in their territory after the next kickoff but Gary Siebel was caught and dropped in the end zone for a safety and two more points for the Mustangs. On the long end of the 16 points, the Heppner eleven failed to tally again until the fourth quarter when they capitalized on another play. They blocked a Stanfield punt on the Tiger 25 and marched from there to the one-yard stripe and Fred Harn den boomed into the end zone for a touchdown. Smith shot a pass to Lee Padberg for the extra point. Despite the early scoring ram page of the Mustangs, the game was not a rout. Stanfield show ed a fine ball club but suffered from the early case cf fumbilitis. Coach Sutherland said that the Tigers had the best passer and best end that his team has work ed against this year. The Mustangs gained 368 to tal yards in the contest, of which 192 came on passing. Stanfield's total was 174. First downs favor ed Heppner, 14 to 5. Porter, who played his usual top game on defense, was cited by Coach Sutherland for his work on offense in this game. "He blocked real good," the coach said. Coach Jess Moore of Stanfield said after the game that Porter proved to be the big gest "thorn in the side" of the Tigers. Hardner was praised by the Heppner coach, along with Lee Padberg and Shan Applegate. Although Applegate did not score, he ran "awfully well," the coach said. Padberg was excel lent on both offense and defense. Two sophomores were com mended for top work, too. They are David Hanna, tackle, and Dean Lovgren, end. Doug Dubuque, who suffered Marco-Mix, Inc.

First tally came on a trick play that well might have fans thumbing through their rule books. The entire Heppner team, but for the center, lined up on the opposite side of the field from the ball. The center alone faced the full Pilot Rock squad. When the play came off, the center merely picked up the ball and sldearmed It 15 yards across the field to Don Munkers who ran it 60 yards for a touchdown. Munkers took the ball on a rollout the next time Heppner had the ball and went 72 yards for the second TD. Simon Winter made the extra point. In the second quarter David Anderson, defensive linebacker, nailed a Pilot Rock back In the end zones for a safety and two points, bringing the tally to 15 0 for Heppner. Winter scored another touch down for the local jayvees later in the same period on an off- tackle crack good for three yards, and Tim Driscoll made the extra point, making it 22-0. Pilot Rock came to life in the third when Scott Case Intercep ted a Don Munkers pass and ran 70 yards to paydirt. However, Heppner came flash ing back when Stuart Dick re ceived a 20-yard pass in the fourth quarter and scored, The point try was no good and the count was 28-0. The home eleven had trouble getting a touchdown to count from then on. Dick Intercepted a pass and ran 65 yards to score, only to have it nullified on a penalty. On an ensuing play Munkers ran 45 yards, but it, too, was called back. A few plays later, however, Dick cracked over from the 3 and Driscoll made the point. Next jayvee game Is against Hermiston there at 7 p.m. Thurs day, October 18. an Injury some time ago, was out of the game and will also miss the contest with Grant Union at John Day this week.
