Mustangs Roll Up Three Early Wins With their basketball season less than a week old. Hermner High's Mustangs have rolled to a 3 0 record, topping DeSales of Walla Walla, McEwen of Athena and Umatilla high in that order since l-riday night. The boys of Coach Bob Canton wine had a corker on their hands with big and potent McEwen there Saturday night but got top performances out of their starters to win, 48 to 42. They had another good contest against DeSales at Walla Walla Friday night in the opener but came through with flying colors, 65 to 49. Their third game, the home opener against Umatilla High Tuesday night in the Heppner High gym was on the ragged order, but the Mustangs, perhaps a little court weary because of playing three games in five nights, had no trouble downing the visitors, 51 to 39, using re serves through much of the game. Against DeSales, the Mustangs fell behind in the opening quart er, 13 to 11, but claimed the lead by halftime, 25 to 24. They shift ed to high gear in the third period, scoring 27 to only 10 for the home five, and had a com manding bulge at the start of the fourth period. 53 to 34. From there, they coasted to victory. Lee Padberg canned 20 points on seven field goals and six frer throws to lead scoring for both teams. Dick Springer had seven and three for 17 and Shan Apple gate counted five buckets and four gift tosses for 14. High for DeSales was Bob Greco with IS on five field goals and three free throws. Athena measured up to all advance reports and gave the Mustangs a nip and tuck battle. The McEwen five forged in front at the start, 14 to 11, and held a one-point edge at halftime, 24 to 23. The Mustangs moved in front in the third quarter, 35 to 33, and battled down to the wire for victory. The Scotties re gained the edge in the final period for a time, but lost it with three minutes to play and the Mustangs emerged with the 6-point bulge. In losing, the McEwen five stopped Heppner's fast break of fense. The Mustangs had a shooting edge, .404 as they hit 19 of 47, t0 .310 for the Scotties on 13 of 42. High point man for the game was Robert Mc Millan with 17 points, nine of which were free throws, and he was followed by a teammate, Mike Shields, with 12. Three Mustangs tied with 11 each, including Shan Applegate, John Porter Porter and Fred Harnden. Against Umatilla here Tues day before a good home open ing crowd, the Mustangs led all the way. They showed brief per iods of smooth work but other wise had a ragged night. At the end of the first quarter they lea, 10 to 6, and boosted this to a 10-point margin by halftime, 28 to 18. The teams held even in the third quarter and went into the fourth with the home club ahead, 37 to 27. Heppner shoot ing was off as they hit but 20 of 73 attempts for a .274 per centage. Umatilla did not have nearly as many shots but ended with a better average, connect ing on 15 of 50 for an even .300.

Dubuque to Underqo Operation to Knee Doug Dubuque, 6-2 lunior at Heppner High school, will under go an operation on his knee in a Pendleton hospital Wednesday, Basketball Coach Bob Canton- wine said Wednesday. He suttered an injury in foot ball season and was able to play only spasmodically thereafter. It was hoped that the injury had healed by the start of basketball season, but it was aggravated in recent practice and he has been unable to participate since. I he coach said that cartilage is torn, affecting ligaments and tendons. It is expected that it will take from four to six weeks for recovery. Doug, first string center for the Mustangs, is sorely missed by the team, and his absence from the lineup will hurt Heppner's chances for a league title despite the fact that the team has a good crew of veterans and re serves to call upon this year. Mr. and Mrs. Blaine Isom of Pendleton were week-end guests at the home of Mr, and Mrs. Claude Graham, and were among those from here attend ing the Elks Annual in London Saturday night.
