HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES. Thursday. October 27. 1966 Mustangs Trounce Grant Union Team For Big Victory Br MAC HOSKINS and TIM SMITH Explosive offensive power in the second and fourth periods provided the punch for a 27-8 victory over C.rant Union Fri day night by Heppner's fast improvinc Mustangs. The win, which was contest ed in the Mustangs' home cor ral, enabled them to establish a sure prasp on second-place in the Greater Oregon League. Their record of three wins and one loss puts the Horsemen be hind only one team. Burns. Ironically, the inlanders' only loss in league play this year was suffered at the hands of the Mustangs. Once again, the old familiar faces which have been in a large part responsible for past Heppner victories were at the forefront of the Mustangs' on slaught Jim Doherty, Mike Al sup, Dave Hall. Jim Jacobs, and Dean Kindle all were large cogs in the Heppner offensive ma chine. The first quarter could not be termed a success for either team. Both elevens were slug gish in their offensive efforts. John Day scored at the end of the period by way of a safety, which was good for two points. Heppner came to life in the second quarter, however. Mid way through the period after recovering a Prospector fumble, Dohertv pitched a 54 - yard touchdown strike to husky Mike Alsup. Alsup's conversion at temDt. in the form of a kick. was a little wide to the left. I Later in the stanza, Heppner ! took over on downs and march-1 ed 51 yards to the one, where Jim Jacobs plunged over the middle for six more. Alsup must have sighted his toe a bit bet ter this time, as his conversion kick was good. Heppner's gridders thus went into the halftime dressing room with a 13-2 edge. John Day booted to Heppner to start the second half. A de termined Mustang march was broken by a costly fumble, which ultimately resulted in a Prospector touchdown, their last of the game. i But the hometown boys, not to be outdone, pushed their way toward Grant Union's goal line. ' On the last play of the third period, Dennis O'Donnell sprint ed around left end from the 6 yard stripe within four inches of Prospector gold. After two unsuccessful saving attempts in which Heppner lost yardage, Doherty crun c h e d through the line from half a , yard out. The elusive TD pro- ' vided the Mustangs with a ' commanding 20-8 lead after the PAT attempt, a pass from Hall to Doherty, was unsuccessful, i A short time later, John Day fumbled. On the next play, sophomore standout Dean Kin dle romped over right tackle for a 53-yard scoring spree. Hall's run around right end for the extra point provided the game's final scoring, and the rest was merely icing on the cake for an elated Mustang eleven. John Day 2 0 6 0 8 Heppner 0 13 0 1427 I V .

Knee Injury Puis Russ Kilkenny Out For Grid Season "Some guys just don't get any breaks." said Russell Kil kenny, Mustang tackle, upon returning home from Pendleton after a knee operation. Russell, HHS junior, didn't exactly get a break but did tear enough tendons in his knee to require him to wear a cast which will keep him out of football for the rest of the season. A few weeks ago Russell re ceived a badly wrenched knee while playing football against the Hermiston JV's. Russell said. "It sure hurt a lot. but I didn't think it was serious." He was walking on it in a few days afterwards. Then it started troubling him again. He went to Pendleton to have it checked out. It was found that Russell's knee had several torn and twisted ligaments and ten dons. They operated, splicing and sewing ligaments back to gether on October 21. He return ed home with a cast from his hip to his foot. Russell, who will be out of action for the rest of the sea son, is expected to have the cast for at least a month. "I will probably miss the first part of basketball season," he said. "After the cast is off I'll still have to get used to run ning on it again." Kilkenny plays forward on the Mustangs' hoop squad.

Coach Hiemstra Sees Improvement In Mustang Team Coach Eil Hiemstra has seen much improvement in his Mus tangs lately. According to him, the football players have ma tured noticeably in the past two weeks. This accounts for the decrease in injuries which were so numerous at the first of the season. He also tagged lack of expereience as a cause of the injuries. However, the Mustang exper ience must be building because the coach gave some very good reports on their game against John Dav which tallied their ' third straight win in league ac tion. Hiemstra feels one mistake of the other team was keying on one player. This means focus ing the hitting on one of the opposite team members in or der to stop him and not con centrating on the whole team. The coach said the Mustang team is too versatile to have to key on one opponent. i He thought the team did very ; well without the two regular j ends, Mike Alsup and Steve ' Pettyjohn, who went out with i injuries. He also commended Jim Doherty on doing a good job of kicking in place of Al- ' sup. j Coach Hiemstra said he saw i the line backers play their first ! game of good tackling and is hoping to see it again this ! week-end against Wahtonka. j Girls Practice For P.
