Vernon,
The Cards scored touchdowns

the fourth period.
The winners started right off
on a sustained march after the
opening kickoff and capped the
drive with a 6-yard touchdown

Lovpren to Leon Macill in the
end zone.
Mt. Vernon was held after the
next kickoff and punted to the
Cardinals. Eddie Sherman crab
bed the ball, and on the return
ran 58 yards to score the sec
ond touchdown for the lone
team.
Extra points following both
scores were good, being passes

Scott Browns Write,
Thank Friends Here
Scott Brown of Portland, who
remains a "Heppner oldtimer"
although his residence is else
where, is able to walk with a
cane now alter breaking his hip
a year a;;o he writes in a letter
to the Gazette-Times this week.
He and Mrs. Brown, who also
wrote to the paper, asked that
their thanks be extended to
f i lends here for the cards and
letters recvived when Mr. Scott
was in the hospital and nursing
home.
"His hip, which was broken
quite badiy has healed, but nut
in place." Mrs. Brown writes. He
was in the hospital and nursing
home for 61 days.
"I was pretty tired going back
and forth each day, so if it
isn't too late, we would like to
send our sincere thanks to the
very kind people up there.
'Xw thanks to you, Mr. and
Mrs. Sherman and for your good
paper. We enjoy it all," Mrs.
Brown continues. "The only thing
I, when the paper comes in the
morning I have to sit down and
read it a'.i through."
In his letter. Mr. Brown said.
"Always glad to cet the paper.
Not interested what's on it. but
what's in it. As a fellow said,
he wasn't interested in what's
on a woman's face, but what's in
it.
"I'll have to miss deer hunting
this year that was always enjoy
ed (Ed. Note: This is something
that Scott never missed for
year's when season opened!
Just will have to eat a little
more beef.
"I'll say we are doing better
than Uncle Sam. We balance
the budget every' week. Just
make the income pay the gro
cery bill. The high 'muca muca'
talk on a billion dollars doesn't
amount to much. Just think if
you had a billion dollars ami
cave away one thousand dollars
an hour 'round the clock, it
would take 114 years, one
month. 26 days and six hours
to give it away. I wish they
would think about this.
"We will have to get some
one in there that's been kicked
around a little who knows what
a dollar is. Pretty soon some
body will have to invent a dol
lar that will stick to your fing
ers a little longer. If they don't
i change their ways pretty soon
I L'ncle Sam is going to be stuck,
j and that means all of us. A pa
per dollar now is only worth
I thirty cents if you cash it in
i for gold.
"If we all could give checks
and overdraw, this would be
; a wonderful world. Well, it
seems as I am getting along in
! years, I think I'll go to Florida
' and hunt for that Fountain of
Youth. You know. Ponce de Leon
; hunted a year for it in 1513.
, He said, 'No soap!' "

School Bells
Bt DAVID R. POTTER
The 19tU"67 school year Is
'starting out very well. We in
Morrow County are verv fortun
ate to have a well qualified and
enthusiastic group of teachers
and administrators. During re
cent years much has been said
about keeping our staff mem
bers for a greater length of
time. Much can be done to help
along these lines. Our PTA
groups have had and are ar
ranging some outstanding
teacher receptions. The Heppner
Elementary PTA had an excel
lent reception last Friday night.
This tvpe of response from the
community makes the teachers
fool welcome. The availability
of housing has improved, and
this helps.
One item which must be con
sidered by the teachers, the
board, the budget committee,
and the community Is teacher's
salaries. During the past three
years Morrow county's salary
schedule has boon surpassed by
rmany sonool districts in the
I state. If we are to hold our well
qualified staff, we must correct
jthis situation by next year. In
1 doing this, we must ho well
aware of the tremendous load
that property is now carrying.
In other words, we must raise
teaching salaries, but we must
j not increase the property tax
I load. There are several w ays in
1 which this can be done.
! The best wav this can be ac
complished is by working close
FARLEY MOTOR CO., May 6 Chase --

ly with our legislators to secure
creator state support for our
schools with n provision for
property tax offset.
Another wav we might achieve
our goal, on a temporary bas
is only, would be to severely
reduce the amount we budget
for transportation, teaching sup
plies and other items In the
budget. This second method Is
a dangerous way. since in fu
ture budgets these items would
have to be greatly increased to
bring the school back to prop
er standards.
We have one other request
and a note of appreciation to
give this week. We would sin
cerely request that each and
every driver in the county be
verv cautious during the hours
before school and after school.
We have many wonderful stu
dents. Please help us in seeing
that thev get to school and re
turn home safely.
The note of appreciation:
We would like to thank all
the people that helped niako
our teacher in sorviov program
such a success.
