Senior Citizens

Property tax exemption appli
cations have been accepted from
36 Morrow county residents un
der the new senior citizens ex

legislature, Rod Thomson, coun
ty assessor, states. Total value

later years or to his heirs the
payment of the taxes. Thomson
said that many asked about this
provision but that none chose to

Heppner Swamps Burns Hilanders In Season Finale
Heppner's Mustang base
bailers ended their season on a
sweet note Saturday as they
took both ends of a double bill
from the Burns Hilanders, 5-3
and 12-5, on the Heppner field.
The win in the first contest of
the day left the Mustangs in
sole possession of second spot
in the western half of the Great
er Oregon league. The second
place finish was the third sec
ond place finish in a major sport
for the Horsemen this year.
Wahtonka of The Dalles fin
ished the campaign in first spot
in the loop. The Eagles sported
a 5-0 league mark to win the
title. The Mustangs were 3-2 for
the league and 11-5 for the sea
son. Burns had beaten three teams
from the A-l Intermountain
league this year and threatened
to give the local lads a run for
their money for the runner-up
position in the loop in the Sat
urday finale.
The threat lasted until the
sixth inning of the initial con
test, a seven-inning affair, when
the Mustangs broke a 3-3 stand
off with two more counters on
a hit by Bill Snyder, a walk to
Jim Doherty, and a fielder's
choice which was thrown home
and got away, allowing Doherty
and Snyder to score.
Earlier in the contest, the
Mustangs had taken a 3-0 ad
vantage in the third inning
when they scored three tallies
on a dropped third strike to
Dave Anderson and hits by Stu
art Dick, Don Munkers, and Carl
Bauman.
The Hilanders flew back to
knot the score at 3-3 when they
scored three runs in the top of
the fourth.
Ken Smith pitched the victory
for the Mustangs, going all the
way and striking out seven
Burns batters. The win gave
Smith a record of 6-3 for the
year. He won his last five In a
row.
Heppner came up with a fine
display of hitting to swamp the
Hilanders in the second, five
inning affair. The Mustangs
scored every inning and collec
ted eight of their runs in the
first frame.
Stuart Dick, Don Munkers,
Carl Bauman, Ken Smith and
Sam Strait all hit two safeties
for the Heppnerites. The big
blow of the game was a bases
loaded double by Strait in the
first inning.
Bauman went to the mound
for the Mustangs for the second
time this season and turned in
another creditable performance.
The Mustang first sacker struck
out two to even his record at
1-1.
Pete Glennie, Mustang' dia
mond coach, commented that he
was pleased with the perfor
mances of his charges for the
season and pointed out that 16
of 17 are returning next year.
The only loss to the Horsemen
is a great one indeed as they
will lose their prime pitcher, Ken
Smith, who will graduate in two
weeks, and is rated among the
top 20 pitchers, statistically, in
the state, an enviable record.
