Heppner Coaches Have Bumper Basketball Turnout Heppner High school basket ball coaches are a little bit in the same predicament as the "Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe." They have such a big turnout of basketball players this season that they don't quite know what to do with them all, but yet don't want to give up any of their talent. Unlike last year, Coach Bob Cantonwine has an experienced squad for the varsity with some promising newcomers up from the jayvees and one likely trans fer in the person of Fred Harn den, formerly of Mitchell. Fred won his spurs in Mustang ath letics in football and appears as an even better basketball pros pect. Back as seniors are Shan Applegate, spark plug of last CHOOSE; IK imi m m t m Don't Wait Until The Last Minute ONLY 33 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS GOOD ASSORTMENT FOR BUSINESS GREETINGS, TOO!

('denotes league games) year's team, Dick Springer and Jonn Porter, both big "tall firs, LeRoy Gardner and Bill Cox, all lettermen, and Mike Lesser and Rodney Ayers, up from the jay vees. Harnden is also a senior Two of last year's veterans are Juniors, including high-scoring Lee Padberg, who connected for 33 points in one game last year, and another big guy, Doug Du buque. Other junior candidates are Ken Wright and Ken Smith, both of whom saw reserve ac tion with the varsity last year, and three of last year's layvees vieing for positions on the squad, including Bill Sherman, Ray Nichols and Richard Clark. There are no sophomores out for the varsity this year, and no room for them unless they could turn out to be exceptionally good. The coach faced the hard task of cutting his squad to 12 this week, and early in the week he could not say just where the cuts would be. Three probably will go to the jayvees but Coach Dick Strait said there is a goodly turnout of prospects, too, includ ing 19 sophomores, all rann' to go. Strait this year is taking the jayvee assignment which Coach Jim Sutherland, head foot- j ball coach, had last year. Suther land will assist Pete Glennie in baseball in the spring and also will help Don McClure in track. Coach Strait formerly coached at Sandy high and at the Uni versity of Alaska, There is no doubt that Heppner this year will be on the comfort able "hot seat" as one of the teams in the Greater Oregon league to beat for the champion ship. Coach Cantonwine would like to shift some of that pres sure to John Day which will have four starters back in the lineup and will floor an all- senior ball club. Burns is considered a "sleeper" because of its size, and Sherman county will have two of its last year's starters back. Pilot Rock, competing for its first year in the circuit, Is rated as one of the underdogs. The Mustangs will probbaly play a 3-2 offense this year with the post about at the free throw line and forwards on either side directly towards the sidelines from him. Guards will be back In direct line from the sides of the key towards the center of the floor, some 5 or feet back of the center. A large area underneath the bas ket will be open for driving.

The candidates have been working hard at drills since start of practice last Juesclay and look fairly good at this early season point, the coach admit ted. Opener for the team will be tough with uetsaies ot walla Walla there on December This is a school of some 425 and the team has all starters back from last year. They beat Mac Hi twice last season. This u ; non-league game for the mus tangs, however. Another tough one follows on Saturday, December 8, when Heppner plays McEwen at Athena. This club lost to Mt Vernon in the B district tourna ment last year but made a good accounting or nseir towards state laurels, only a lew are gone from their last year s team. Home opener is with Umatilla here December 11, a Tuesday night. League play doesn't start un til January 11, when the Mus tangs travel to Moro for an en counter with Sherman county, The team has one non-league tilt booked tor the Christmas holidays, against Stanfield here on December 29. Coach Cantonwine figures that the winner of the western div ision of the Greater Oregon league this year must rack up at least a 7-1 record to take the honors. Chances are that the champion will play Vale for the right to go to tournament. Those basketball fans who want a bargain may buy season tickets soon for $6.50, entitling them to nine home games which have admission of $1 each. There may be 10 home games adding a bonus game to the season ticket holder if an opponent can be found for the open dates of January 8 and 29. Originally games were scheduled with lone on these dates, but the contests were cancelled. Starting times for home games all doubleheaders will be 6:30 for jayvees and 8:15 for varsity.

Mrs. Gordon, one of the direc tors of the Portland Jewish Com munity center for retarded children, has had a very active part in the development of edu cational facilities and the under standing of modern problems in Oregon relative to the mentally retarded child. She has done much in this field through legis lative interest in national and state governmental organiza tions. The speaker also appeared on the Heppner PTA program last Wednesday evening, calling at tention to the needs in this field. Accompanying Mrs. Gordon to the meeting was Mrs. Ed Dick, local PTA president. Other guests present were two high school senior girls, Ann Jones and Laura Lee Sumner; also Mrs. Bernard Doherty, Mrs. Clarence Frederickson, and Mrs. Earl Ayers. Mrs. Ed Gonty pre sided at the meeting in the ab sence of Mrs. Jim Hager, presi dent. "Over 54,000, or slightly above 3 of our total population in Oregon, are mentally retarded," Mrs. Gordon told the group. "Eighty-three per cent of these are mildly retarded, or are able to be educated and equipped to earn their own living. A little above thirteen per cent are mod erately retarded but able to care for themselves and work In sheltered areas. Slightly over four per cent are severly re tarded and will need institut ional care during their lives. About $160 a month is the av erage cost to care for a mentally retarded person in an institu tion," the speaker pointed out. Present national need is for 55,000 additional teachers in this field, and more and better equipped institutions. She urged community cooperation ana sup port of the local program and of legislation which would in crease funds available for bud gets to carry on research work in medicine and for profession ally trained personnel.
