    HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday. December 26, 1963
Heppner, Fossil,
Condon, Sherman
In Holiday Show
(Continued from page 1)
The combined record of the
four teams in the tourney shows
only one defeat for the season,
that being Condon's loss to Hepp
ner in the Friday contest. Wheel
er, Sherman and Heppner are
undefeated in competition this
year.
Sherman Is the solid favorite
to win the tourney. The Huskies
start five seniors of which two
were starters last season. Doug
Bish leads the Husky attack with
his deadly outside shooting abil
ities and his springy rebounding
talents.
The Huskies are rated as the
team to beat in the race for the
western division of Greater Ore
gon conference crown. The Mus
tangs are also a member of the
Greater Oregon loop, and if the
two teams meet in the tourney
it would present a good picture
on the Mustangs hopes for ihe
league crown.
Condon is a dark horse in the
race for the tourney champion
ship. The Blue Devils demon
strated that they are a team
to reckon with in their game
with the Mustangs as they made
the Horsemen go to the wire to
grab the victory. With their
height, the Condon quint can't
be rated as an also-ran for the
tourney.
Bob Cantonwine, He p p n e r
basketball mentor, 'commented
on the tourney picture by say
ing that the affair will give local
fans a chance to see four of the
finest. A-2 and B basketball
teams in the state in action.
Nightly admission for the
games will be $1 for adults,
and $.50 for students with stu
dent body cards.
Mrs. Jon Blake of Kent Wn..
visited her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Paul Jones, recently, helping out
while both Mr. and Mrs. Jones
were in the hospital in Pendle
ton. He was undergoing treat
ment to his back, and at the
same time, Mrs. Jones was troub
led with influenza. Both are
now home again. Mrs. Blake was
here from December 3 to 18. Also
visiting recently with Mr. and
Mrs. Jones were their son, Gary,
and family of Hood River.

Mustangs Open
New "Corral"
With 58-54 Win
Heppner High scored first and
most Friday night as they trip
ped the Condon Blue Devils, 58
54, in the inaugural basketball
tilt played on the Mustang's
new floor. A crowd of around
800 turned out for the affair
and before the night was over
witnessed a free-wheeling ball
game.
Condon outshot the Horsemen
from the field and the free throw
line but didn't get as many blasts
at the basket. The Mustangs dis
played a case of nerves as they
managed only a .319 percentage
from the floor and .387 from the
charity stripe. Condon shot a .333
from the floor and .695 from the
gift line.
The Mustangs jumped to a
quick 3-0 lead in the first stanza
as Dave George hit on a lay-in
and connected on a gifter. From
here the local quint ran their
lead to 14-7 at the end of the
period.
The Blue Devils swept back
in the second quarter to out
shoot the Mustangs and narrow
the lead to 23-21 at halftime.
R. Stinchfield led the Condon
attack in the period as he con
nected for seven counters.
After the rest break the Mus
tangs came back to widen their
margin, largely on the arm of
Ken Wright who reeled off eight
points in the quadrant. Wright
hit four straight jumpers mid
way through the period to hinder
the Blue Devils. At the end of
the period the Horsemen were
in command of a 45-37 lead.
A determined rally in the
fourth quarter caught the Mus
tangs with their guard down and
they had to fight for survival
in the contest.
Led by Jim Bailey and Gary
Beck, the Condon crew whittled
the Mustang lead to 2-points
with 1:50 to play.
At that point, Doug Dubuque,
a Mustang who had seen no
action this year due to an in
jured knee, came through with
a timely tipin to preserve the
Mustang lead at four points
Condon was not to be denied
as Bailey hit an 18-foot beauty
from the corner to put his team
back into contention.
With less than a minute re
maining in the contest, Heppner
attempted to stall out the clock.
With just 4 seconds remaining
Carl Bauman was fouled and
stepped to the charity stripe to
coolv hit on two attempts to
put the game on ice for the Mus
tangs. Lee Padberg was a ball of fire
on defense and led the Mustang
offensive effort with 15 points.
Bauman and Wright contributed
14 and 12 points respectively for
the Mustangs.
Beck and Bailey each hit 12
points for the Blue Devils.
