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.
