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.

lone Vaulfer
To Try for Mark
Tom Heimbigner, lone High
school pole vaulter whose best
efforts this year top the state
B track meet record, will try
for a new state record at the
annual high school B meet in
Bend Saturday.
He and teammate Joe Halv
orsen were the only ones to
qualify for the state meet with
the performances at the district
meet at Umatilla Saturday.
Heimbigner broke the existing
district vault record with his
11' 9", three inches better than
the previous mark of 11' 6". The
state record is an even 12 feet,
but Heimbigner has gone
12' 3" in practice this week,
Coach Glenn Biehl said.
Halvorsen took a second in the
120-yard high hurdles to qual
ify for the state meet in that
event. He ran it in 17.3.
Halvorsen, a sophomore, will
compete at Bend in preliminaries
Friday evening, and Heimbigner
will perform Saturday morning.

Golf is like a disease there's
very little cure. 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!
Recital is Cancelled
The public piano recital by
students of Mrs. Charles Knox
announced for Sunday after
noon, May 19, at the Christian
church, has been indefinitely
