Fresh from two invigorating
victories in the Greater Oregon
League the last over Sherman
County at Moro Friday the
Heppner Mustangs return to the
home football field Friday to
meet Grant Union of John Day
with game time at 8 p.m. on
the rodeo grounds.
Coach Ed Hiemstra and his
boys hope to make it three in
a row and break out of the 3-
way tie for second place in the
standings. Grant Union will
come here suffering from a 20
6 loss to Burns Friday.
Heppner overturned the Hi
landers here two weeks ago, 31
13, and if comparative scores
were a dependable yardstick,
they would have quite an ad
vantage over the Prospectors
Friday. But anyone knows that
this is an unreliable method to
determine respective ratings for
teams.
Grant Union has had a good
season to date, and the Mus
tangs cannot afford a letdown
of any kind if they are going
to come through with victory.
After a slow start in pre-sea-son
play and a loss in their
first league game to Madras,
19-13, the Mustangs have caught
a spark and have been appar
ently getting better in every
contest. After starting with the
possibility of getting thumped
regularly this season, they now
appear one of the "teams to
beat" in the league.
Despite its loss to Heppner,
Burns is first in the league at
this time by virtue of having
played one more game. The Hi
landers' 3-1 record gives them
the edge over Heppner, Wah
tonka and Grant Union, all
bunched at 2-1.
The Mustangs have the ad
vantage of playing the next two
at home. Following the Grant
Union game Friday, they enter
tain the Wahtonka Eagles at
homecoming on Friday, October
28.
A concluding game with En
terprise is scheduled November
4 at Enterprise at 7:30 p.m., but
Coach Hiemstra states that if
the Mustangs get into the play
offs, this game will not be played.
Quarterback Chris Lovgrrn
ran for two touchdowns, pass
ed for another, and made two
extra points in leading the lone
Cardinals to a 25 6 victory ov
er Weston at Weston Thursday
afternoon.
The Cards, who now stand
second In league play with a
2-1 record, lost another touch
down when It was ruled that
their ballpacker didn't have
control of the ball when he
went into the end zone. As he
juggled the ball, an opponent
grabbed the resulting fumble
and Weston took possession on
the 20-yard line.
Coach Gordon Meyers' boys
missed several other chances to
score, but they were stubborn
in giving Weston an opportu
nity to hit paydirt.
The losers' lone score came in
the fourth quarter, the only
time thev penetrated the lone j
20-yard line. They were down
close when they benefited by i
a roughing penalty against
lone. Installed on the Vyard
line, it took the Weston team
four tries to make the goal
line. Donnie Sloan barely made
it on the fourth crack.
After a scoreless first quarter
in the game, lone opened a 14
point halftime lead by two
touchdowns In the second per
iod. Monte Crum ran for 13
yards to make the first six
points, and Lovgren ran the ex
tra point. Later in the quarter,
Lovgren packed it over from
two yards out on an off-tackle
play. Eddie Sherman ran the
point
The third quarter was anoth
er scoreless affair, but early In
the fourth, Lovgren tallied from
one yard out, and on the point
try. pitched a pass to Leon Ma
gill, making the count 21-0 for
the Cards.
Weston made its lone score at
this juncture, and it stood 21-6
for a short time.
The game's final touchdown
came when Lovgren threw a
short pass to Sherman, and he
galloped most of the 45 yards
covered on the play, ending in
the end zone. Crum ran the
point, and the final was 28-6.
of his defensive line, pointing
to their tough goal line stand
when it took Weston four tries
to go a half yard, and to hold
ing them scoreless through the
rest of the game.
The offensive linemen also
did a "great Job," the coach
said.

lone fo Finish
Season Friday
lone High School's football
team will finish its regular sea
son Friday afternoon on the
lone field when Umapine comes
for a pigskin clash. Game time
is 2 p.m.
Now standing at 21 for the
league season, the Cardinals
are a game behind Riverside
High. Should Echo pull an up
set in Its game with Riverside
and win, and If lone conquers
I'mapine. the Cards and Pirates
would be deadlocked for first In
the league. But, on paper, Riv
erside looms too powerful for
Echo.
Umapine has yet to win a
league game, and so the Cards
are favored In this finals.
Coach Gordon Meyers' team,
although short on manpower
and hampered by Injuries, has
won three games, tied one and
lost two on the overall season
to date. The losses were to Riv
erside and Dufur, the tie was
with Arlington, and the wins
were over Mt. Vernon, Echo and
Weston. The team has been
stronger with each game.

Heppner High's revitalized
Mustangs sparkled again on the
grtdiron Friday when they con
quered Sherman county at Moro,
20 to 6, In a hard fought game.
Coach Fd Hiemstra had said
prior to the contest that he was
altering his offense to provide
some surprises for the Huskies
after the Mustangs had whack
ed Burns here, 31 13. In a game
that was well scouted by Sher
Man. Whether It was this strat
egy that paid off or a rejuve
nated spirit by the Heppner
eleven, the team nevertheless
did the Job.
Against Sherman. It was Jim
Doherty and Mike Alsup that
made the telling blows Instead
of the line charges of Jim Ja
cobs who had ripped through
Burns.
In Alsup's case, he came
back to haunt his former team
mates, since he was an all-
conference pick from Sherman
county last year before his
transfer to Heppner.
Doherty scored two of the
Heppner touchdowns and Alsup
made the third. Alsup also In
tercepted a pass that paved the
way for the first Mustang six
pointer. It was In the first quarter
that Alsup snagged the Sher
man pass and took It back In
to Huskies' territory. Jacobs
gained four yards, and then
Doherty took the ball on a quick
opener off the left side to ram
ble 20 yards for the first touch
down. Alsup kicked the extra
point, and the Mustangs were
away and running, 7-0.
At the start of the second
quarter, the Mustangs struck
again. Heppner started on its
own 40 following a Sherman
punt. Utilizing the quick open
er, the team made a series of
first downs with IVan Kindle.

Halfback Doherty pitched a
pass to Alsup, who went the
distance to score. Alsup's kick
try fur the point went off to
the right, but Heppner had a
13 0 advantage which held up
until halftime.
Sherman got on the score
board In the third quarter via
the aerial route. Fred Ju.ttesen
caught one lung pass on a third
down pluy that set the stage
for the touchdown. Another
pass was completed, gaining to
the Heppner 25. Quarterback
Dan Jensen then fired a third
completion to Hill Jones, who
ran to the end zone Just before
the end of the third quarter.
The point try was no good, and
the score was 13 6.
Heppner had one more scor
ing play for the evening, anil
It wasn't long In coming. David
Hall, Mustang quarterback, who
had been doing a good Job on
runburks through the evening,
took the Sherman klckoff and
went 43 yards before he was
nailed. On the first down play.
Jacobs carried the ball, but
Sherman was penalized 15 yard
for piling on. giving the Mus

es, kicked the ball through the
uprights, for the extra point,
bringing the count to the final
score of 20 6.
The hard fought battle re

parently none serious, on both
sides. At one time, tempers
flared and a Heppner and a
Sherman county player were
eji-cted from the game.
