Awards Assembly Date Reset May 31 The Awards Assembly, which was scheduled for Mnv 25 at the Heppner High cafetorium, hus been postponed until Tues day, May 31. nt 7:30 p.m. The reason fur the change Is that certain awards have not been received. There comes a time every vear when the little kiddles that have been languishing In good old Heppner High for the last four years leave those of ua that have not had the ques tionable honor of being In school as long as they have. When that happens, we poor unfia-tunate look at the long, years thut we have been sub jected to Ignominies and scorn and feel bad because they are leaving us. Just think, next year the Jun iors will be seniors and can act Just as seniors are aupiwsed to act. The sophomores will sud denly transform themselves In to Juniors and will begin to hove the teachers lay the work, on them. The freshmen will be come sophomores and can look down upon the freshmen that are coming up from the eighth grade. No matter what, we will miss the graduates and will probab ly remember some of them as long as we live.

Four HHS Spikers Win State Berths In District Meet Four speedy Heppner High runners Tim Driscoll, Mark Brown. Tim Smith, and Dave Hall qualified for the state A Leaves for Fort Sill Tfc. Greg Pierce, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ocne Pierce, left Wed nesday, May 25, for Fort Sill, Oklahoma, where he will be in Leadership Training School. He has been in Heppner for a ten day leave after finishing Basic Training at Fort Ord, Calif. track meet by taking either first or second In the District 7- A-2 championships held In On tario last Saturday. Although Coach Don McClure entered most of his boys In on ly one event so as to Insure peak Individual performances, the Mustangs still racked up 44 points. This placed them in fifth place behind powerful Burns (113), Madras nun, Nyssa mi, and Vale (64). Top Heppner time of the day was posted by two-mller lim Smith, who smashed his former school record of 10:15.4 in the fine time of 10:07.3. Although Smith has so far chopped off nearly 25 seconds from the pre 16 achool standard, he still had to settle for second place behind Wahtonka's wondrous Phil Berthold. Dave Hall, as fine a sopho more spiker as Heppner has ever seen In many years, sliced over the 120-yard high hurdles In 15.5, which set a new meet record by 2 of a second. Senior Tim Driscoll, nearlng the end of a remarkable ath letic career at HHS, came home as 880-yard blue ribbon winner In 2:00.9, though there was no serious competition. Gutty Mustang mller Mark Brown finished second in 4:52.0, which Is one of his better times of the year. Low hurdler Ken Morgan, who took third place will also go to state should either the first or second place fin isher be unable to make the trip. Heppner also took three sixth plcaes. Bill McLeod ran the best mile of his life In 4:58.1, and Steve Wagcnblast flipped the discus 132 feet. Pole vault ace Mick Kindle also nabbed a sixth with his 10'6" leap. Un fortunately, this was far under his school record best or. 12 o . McClure attributed this largely to Mick's difficulty in adjusting to Ontario's unfamiliar asphalt runway. Hall, Brown, Driscoll , and Smith will leave with Coach. McClure for the two-day state meet at Corvallls some time Friday. According to times post ed in the various district meets the past week-end, Heppner will probably score several points and could even win an event or two. Hehisch Editor Holds Interview Wth Dr. Minear By TOM RAWLINS An Interview with Dr. Leon Minear, State Superintendent of lublic Instruction, revealed some little known facts about our state school system. At his press conference at the Pendleton Municipal Airport last I-rlday, he opened by say ing that the Oregon school sys tem Is one of the finest in the United States. He said that the reason for this high standard is that. "We are a people that val ue highly, public education." As a result of the fact that the people of Oregon value ed ucation so highly, we put more money into It than any other state with the exceptions of Alaska, Hawaii, and New York, according to information de livered at the conference. With this great expenditure the state school system has achieved standards which put Oregon tenth grade students one and three-fourths years ahead of the national average In the math and science fields, and average In English compo sition. The state has also at tained a position of second high In literacy in the nation. Dr. Minear Is opposed to a decrease In property taxes be cause he feels that If the tax es were to be lessened It would become necessary for the aver age high school superintendent to release 40 percent of his teachers or decrease their sal arise by that amount Other information about Dr. Minear given out at the confer ence was delivered by Mr. Bro- eiottl. chairman of the State Board of Education. Dr. Minear has helped orga nize the school system In West Germany, and has had requests to help in Liberia and Puerto Rico. Dr. Minear said, "inese Invitations to help do not come lightly but as a recognition of the United States school sys tern."
