ROOM SERVICE CLOSE TO CITY CENTER BANQUET FACILITIES MEETING & DISPLAY ROOMS 1 MOTOR HOTEL BOWLING BITS By JO PETTYJOHN SEVERAL INTERESTING things have happened since last re pcit. For one thing, Joyce Espsy says she gives the writer notice to retract last week's statement that Iris Campbell had high ser ies or else! ! Stand corrected, Joyce had the 465 series and is tied for second in the second half of play. Must mention, just In passing that last week Joyce bowled one outstanding frame, two "gutter" balls. She said she was making it easier for the storekeeper! THE MEN'S teams will have concluded their Echo city lea gue tournament play Tuesday night, and as of this writing, there are no complete results. A little birdie did say the fellows from here were not too excited about their scores. What's this about Joel Engelman getting "strikes" with' the ash can? All of this happened during the tournament! ooo THE GALS came out last week with some wins and some loss es and two of the teams are giv ing the leaders a race for the lead. MCGG is in third place with an 8-win 2-loss record, one game behind second place sheets and three games behind first place Eagle Valley. Padberg Machinery moved up to fourth spot one game behind MCGG with a 7-win 3-loss record and Turner, Van Marter and Bryant is tied with Burns for fifth with 5 wins and 7 losses. Lovgren Improving Dean Lovgren is showing con tinued improvement in the Good Samaritan hospital, Portland, on his way to recovery following an auto accident near Heppner Dec ember 30, his uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Bob Lovgren, reported after visiting him over the week end. He is regaining movement in his legs slowly. The Lovgrens also visited Mrs. Bill Weather fad in the hospital and Richard Robison in the Veteran's hospi tal. Mrs. Weatherford returned to the hospital recently after pre vious hospitalization in Decem ber. Robison was expeced to be discharged sometime this week. Also visiting him were Mr. and Mrs. Bob Kilkenny of Heppner. MCGG TANGLED with Turner last week and came out with three wins against one win for Turner. Vesta Kilkenny, Turner, had high series of 446 and high game of 165. Lois Hunt had high game and series for MCGG with a 438 and 161. Guess MCGG re instated her to the team! Speak ing of MCGG, ask Jo Pettyjohn how to get two chances at the pins without throwing the ball? Easy, just take off on the ap proach, decide to stop and start over again. You're sure to get a strike. Adds a little excitement! Padberg took three from Echo Hotel to move into fourth place. Vonnie Lovgren had high series of 430 and Faye Ruhl had high game of 154. ooo THE WOMEN'S city tournament Is set for March 6-7 at the Echo Lanes. Any women bowling on the Wednesday or Thurs day night leagues may enter In the singles, doubles, all events and as a team. Hope the weather is better by then! Assessors to Help SDAGet100 Record Of Cattle Owners Livestock officials of the state department of agriculture are teaming up with county asses sors throughout Oregon to gain 100 per cent record of names and addresses of all cattle own ers in Oregon. The cooperative effort will help the department determine if it is getting the level of vac cination and testing needed to eradicate brucellosis (Bang's dis ease) in Oregon. In other words, the assessor records will be checked against the department lists to uncover any cattle, either beef or dairy, that are being missed in the cleanup program. The cooperative effort will have some advantages for as sessors, too, says SDA Assis tant J. W. Southworth. It will give them a double check on location of herd owners and in formation on the movement of cattle into Oregon, particularly as it applies to the border areas. In addition to verification of the herd lists it currently pos sesses, the department antici pates the assessors' records will provide information on very small herds one to four or five cattle possibly not yet located in the brucellosis program.
