HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday. December 12, 1963 School Directors Talk Many Matters At Regular Meet (Continued from page 1) Chairman Milton Morgan is to contact the renter and adjacent property owners to see what ac tion might be advisable, and it will be considered again at a later meeting. As interpreted by the board of directors, advisory boards have the right to appoint their own members to fill vacancies. The Heppner advisory board submit ted names of Mrs. Brown and Baker for the two existing vac ancies, and these were affirmed bv the directors. At the forth coming meeting with the ad visory boards, postponed from a previously scheduled date, the directors will discuss with them their duties and responsibilities in the hope that a clear policy may be determined. Mr. and Mrs. Howard Golly horn have offered V2 lots, about one-half acre, to the district near the Irrigon school at a price of $302 in response to the district's proposal to consider more prop erty there for future expansion. The Terteling Company, holder of other property that would be sought, replied to a "feeler" let ter from the board that it was not interested in selling any of its property there. However, an other letter was sent by Supt. Wayne Brubacher after the Mon day meeting telling of the dis trict's needs and the importance for future expansion. Terms of Mrrvln Leonard, Lex ington, and Mrs. Howard Petty john, Ileppner, on the school bud get committee expire this year. Appointments will need to roe made soon in order that the corn- Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Scott are moving to the Bill Barnett place, Rt. 1, Lexington, this week trom their home in Heppner and plan to offer their home for rent or sale. Thev will occupy the farm place for the Marquardt family. mittee may start to work on the 1964-65 budget. It was decided to make appointments Monday night when the board meets to open bids on the music room. Discussion on the school an nual advisors came up when it was recommended that the lone advisor be paid $100 flat for extra work on the annual in stead of $4.50 per hour. Heppner High pays $100 to its advisor. Ron Daniels, Riverside High ad ministrator, pointed out that the Riverside advisor receives noth ing extra for work on the an nual outside the classroom. The The board felt that the payment should be made equitable for all involved and decided on the $100 for each, leaving the matter open for further consideration in a future year. Herrick's presentation on the remedial reading program brought out points that the board had not known about the work being done. Mrs. Lindsay teaches remedial reading there one-half time per day for one-half of the school year. Herrick said that 16 students are involved in the pro gram, and told of progress being made in the instruction. Directors appeared favorably impressed with the presentation and decided that they would like to hear similar reports of other phases of school work from throughout the district at en suing meetings.

Both games will be played at Heppner in the old gymnasium. It was hoped that the supports for the backboards in the new plant would arrive and be erec ted in time for this week's games. However, it was learned Wed nesday that the supports were in Pasco and would be unloaded there and brought by truck to Heppner. This proved no relief as it was also learned that the crew which will install the sup ports and backboards is in the State of Washington and will not be here to install the appar atus in time for this week's games. Therefore, Heppner fans will once more have to journey to the old high school to watch the Mustangs in action while the new gym sits unblemished by the yelling of fans and the swishing of nets. While the Mustangs routed the DeSales Irish of Walla Walla last week, the McEwen squad opened its season by soundly thumping the Pilot Rock Rockets, 40-25. The Scotty attack is a well balanced effort. Three of the team, which averages 6 feet per man, hit the double figures in the Pilot Rock encounter. This would indicate that the Mustang defense faces one of its stiffest tests of the young season. Returning to the Mustang squad and bolstering its attack will be Doug Dubuque, a letter man last season. His return will cive the Mustangs more punch under the boards. Dubuque has i been hampered by a knee in jury so far this year but the doctor has given him the go ahead for this week-end. Saturday night the Mustangs will tangle with a squad that hasn t been seen before in com petition in this area. Gervais, of the Capital Conference in west ern Oregon, will make the journ ey to Heppner in the hopes of dis posing with its cross-state rival, while the Mustangs will be out to gain the recognition assoc iated with an eastern Oregon team whipping a team from the western half of the state. Gervais lost its opening contest to Cas cade High. The preliminary game Friday night will be between the Hepp ner High jayvees and the Mc Ewen High jayvees and will start at the regular time. The Saturday preliminary will be a game between the lone eighth graders and the Heppner eighth graders. The contest will start at 7 p.m. instead of the regular 6:30 p.m. Although the game with Ger vais is not listed on Heppner high's season tickets, due to an oversight, the tickets will ad mit their holders to the tilt. Coach Bob Cantonwine, who has been absent from the helm of the Mustangs thus far this year, due to an illness, will be guiding their fortunes during this week's action. Cantonwine reminds everyone that season tickets are still available.
