Cards Continue Touchdown Parade Against Echo 11 Coach Dick Strait's lone High football team continued the touchdown parade against Echo that it started the previous week against Arlington when they shellacked the Cougars at Echo Friday night, 40 to 19. They scored two touchdowns in each of three quarters, while the Cougars tallied one each in three Quarters. The Cards made theirs in the first, second and fourth, and the Cougars counted single tallies in the first, third and fourth. Joe Halvorsen, Ken Klinger and Tom Heimbigner were the big guns of the Cardinal attack, with Halvorsen scoring three touchdowns, two on running plays of 15 yards and one yard, and on a 4-yard pass from Klinger. Klinger broke loose for two long runs, of 35 and 46 yards, for two scores. He intercepted a pass prior to the 46-yard run. Heimbigner snared a pass from Mike Halvorsen, which, with the run, was good for 52 yards and the sixth touchdown for the Cardinals. Heimbigner figured in three extra Doints, scoring two him self and passing to Mike Palm er for a third. Butch Williams of Echo had a hand in each of the three Cougar touchdowns. He passed to Dan Flanagan in the first quarter, ran 40 yards to paydirt in the third period, and ran 60 yards to score in the fourth. Big gainer for the Cards again was Ken Klinger with 103 yards on offense. He made 17 tackles during the ball game.

David. 5-11 tackle, weighs 200 pounds. The husky Junior has been a strong performer for the Mustangs this year. (G-T Photo) Umatilla Thumps Mustangs, 19-6, At Rodeo Grounds Umatilla's Vikings, conquer ors of three of five western di vision teams of the Greater Ore gon league, included Heppner's Mustangs in its list of victims at the rodeo grounds here Friday night, 19 to 6. A B-school powerhouse with no fear of A-2 opponents, the Vikings earned the victory on sheer power that they displayed. Led by Captain Albert Eisele, a powerful performer himself, the Viks scored first in the first quarter when Eisele ran over from 25 yards out. Tom Lewis ran the extra point. Heppner, stopped until late in the third quarter, got on the scoreboard with a neat pass from Quarterback Don Munkers to Tim Driscoll,' the pass and run good for 35 yards and the lone touchdown of the night. The point try failed. But the Mustangs' optimistic thoughts of victory were soon jolted again: when Bill Durand, another of the hard-driving backs of the Viks, scored from two yards out after a long sus tained march. The conversion try failed. Final touchdown of the even ing came in the fourth quarter on a Heppner fumble although it looked more as if Dale McCoy of the Viks broke through and literally stole the ball from the carrier's hands. This set up the visitors on the Heppner 15, from where they moved to the three and Durand took it over from that point. Larry Muessig, senior back for the Mustangs, almost broke away on a couple of occasions, one at the opening kickoff. He took the ball on his own 10 and ran back to the 50 before he was halted. However, the Heppner gridders couldn't dent the Uma tilla defense and were forced to kick. Muessig averaged 5.7 yards per carry during the ball game, and Stuart Dick both ran and blocked well. "They literally overpowered us," said Coach Jim Sutherland after the game. "They are very strong. Our defenses were a little slow in reacting to their power blocks." Heppner, bolstered by some excellent defensive performances by Lee Paduerg, David Hanna and others, was able to stop the visitors up the middle but were hurt by their wide power. Offensively, the Must a n g s moved quite well around end and on some short passes, but couldn't gain up the middle.

Box 247 HEPPNER Coach Sutherland said that Hanna's showing was "another good game, both defensively and offensively, for the third straight week." He commended David Anderson, 145 lb. junior guard. "Though small, he was very tough on defense," he said. ; Heppner gained 108 yards run ning and 58 on passing while Umatilla racked up 201 yards running and nothing on passing. First downs favored the win ners, 11 to 7. : A good-sized home crowd was on hand to witness the game which was played on a beaut iful, balmy night The loss brought Heppner's season s rec ord to 1 and 2, winning over London and losing to Enterprise ana umatuia.
