Invitational track meet. Burns in the A-2 ranks and Columbia Christian of the B division out ; distanced all opponents to take the team titles. At the same time, individual performers re corded some of the best times and marks in the state so far ;this year. The meet was also htizhly suc cessful for the host Mustangs, as thev nabbed third place in the A-2 division with 1024 points, edged only by the much larcer teams from Burns, 143. land Madras. 1054. I Both Tim DriscoU, high man for the meet with 28 points, and Tim Smith, hardy distance man, 'demolished their own forme Heppner school records.

And weight man Steve WafienbU.-t continued to close in on the HMS discus mark with a 135'5V heave, although he had to set tle for third place. Mustang strength in the dis tances was highlv evident. In the SSO Simon Winters took i third. Bill McLeod fourth, and Mark Brown sixth against stiff competition. The mile finish found Tim Tullis taking third i in 4:47.1). while Brown was barely back of him in a fifth place time of 4:49.7. But the Strongest HHS showing of all was in the two-mile, where sophomore Randv Stillman and freshman Rick Witherrtte took third and fourth behind Smith, i Meanwhile, the keen compe tition brought forth outstanding marks for the other schools as well. Wahtonka's flashy Phil Berthold took the distance doub le for A-2 ranks with a 4:2S mile and a 2:02.2. SSO. Both .times were meet records and among tne best marks in tne state. But Burns' Bob Rhen was barelv behind him. checking in with 4:34.2 and 2:02.6 marks for the two races. Harland Yriarte, also of Burns, flipped the discus 1561" and Dave Emmons of Wahtonka shoved the shotput 50' 4" for other outstanding A-2 distances. , Area schools did well in the i B division, too, with Pilot Rock I racking up 105 points to take j second place behind Columbia Christian's 126. However, the lat ter, a school from Portland, clearly dominated the small schools' division. CC sprint man Mike Lawrence captured blue ribbons in the 100 and 220-yard dashes, both in meet record time, while Pumage set a new 880 mark for the "B's". I The Rockets' Mike Hughes, last year's state 440 champ, top ;ped his specialty in 52.6 sec onds. Another Kindle, Duane :(from Wheeler County), tossed jthe javelin 170'5". Both were .new B records for the Invita tional, as was the 5'114" high jump of Helix's leaping Charles I Porter.
