r i c AMONG STABS on the East squad of the Shrine game in Pendleton on August 24 will be John Potter, big guard from the 1962 Heppner High football team. Porter Prepares For Shrine Game August 24 Burns Nine Dumps Mustangs, 18-6 In Season's Final Hopes of Coach Pete Glen nie's Heppner High baseball team to edge into a first place tie at the finish of the Greater Oregon league season were rudely shattered Saturday when the Burns Hilanders shellacked them 18-6 at Burns in a game that only went 22 innings. Ken Smith, Fred Hamden and Bill Snyder saw action on the mound for the Mustangs in the short contest, but Burns, trail ing 1-0 in the bottom of the first, went to work and shoved over five runs in their first time at bat. Heppner went down in order in the second inning, but Burns' big stickers came back with a nightmare inning for Heppner, tallying 13 runs on six hits. The Mustangs staged a rally of their own in the top of the third and managed five runs to make it 18-6, but the game was called at that point. Ihe contest had been sched uled to start at 11 a.m. so that the Heppner diamondmen could get back in time for the junior senior prom that night but it didn t begin until 1 p.m. Even quitting after 2k in nings, the team didn't get home until 8:) p.m. Woodfin, on the mound for Burns, gave up only one hit, that to Dick Springer in the third. The Hilanders connected for eight bingles. Coach Glennie used every man on his squad in the sea son's finale. The loss brought the season s league record to an even 2-2 and the overall record, including non-counters, to five wins and six losses. Pilot Rock and Sherman Coun ty tied for the western division championship in the circuit and must play off for the title.

Sunshine helps, and this last week-end there was lots of it. Many enjoyed our course. On Tuesday, the ladies met at 9:30 (which will be our perm anent tee-off time through the summer.) There are 11 sunburn ed noses that I know of. Joining us for the first time, and inci dentally her first game in 30 years, was Mrs. Ethel Rose, and her daughter, Betty. They are both nurses at our hosDital and it's a wondeiful way to relax after a strenuous day with medicine. Golf balls were won by Lois Hunt for most 7 s, and a tie be tween her and Hester C. for a nine on their cards (which means lots of trouble.) Hester won the flip. Our new score cards are now in use, the rules of play are plainly stated and makes it easier to score. Playing Tuesday were Ethel and Betty Rose, Hester Creswick, Cork Norene, Lois Hunt, Juanita Martin, Marie McQuanie, Hazel Mahoney, Cora Mae Ferguson, Helen Schaffitz and Dee Cribble. Sunday afternoon five couples played late in the day. Bev Gun derson was surely hitting her tee-off shots a "fur" piece Ed gifted her with a box of fur trimmed tees. You've heard of Johnny Apple seed? Well, we have "Weeping Willow Don." Don Tinner plant ed five of the 12 Willows purch ased by Ed Gunderson, Lowell Gribble and Don. He was mighty unpopular when he phoned the group in the early hours Sunday morning to neip plant, but he got the job done, lonesome like. Kinzua will be guests of Heppner, with play on Sunday. Golfers, please turn out to make this a successful day. Willow Creek is a "million dollar stream," there are so many golf balls in it!
