Hearings Slated
On Juvenile Cases
After Burglaries
lliilirlnos ui-ri fcrliofliili'd till
start Wednesday morning, Aug
ust 2.'l, In Juvenile court of
County Judge Paul Jones, on
case Involving 10 local youths,
ranging In age 13 to 17 who
are Implicated In burglaries and
vurulullsm in Heppner In recent
weeks.
Wrhen the youth were ques
tioned and remanded to the Ju
venile court by city officer, it
apparently cleared 12 illegal
entries Into three Heppner bus
inesses and meeting halls, as
well as miscellaneous Incidents
of vandalism.
County Judge Jones and Chief
of police Glen Kolkhorst said
that there appeared to be at
least four entries at Pettyjohn's
Farm and Building Supply,
three at Murray Rexull Drug,
three at Court Street Market,
one at the Odd Fellows hull ana
one at the American Legion
hall. In addition, four street
lights were broken out, garbage
cans were emptied, windows
were broken nt the grade school,
and wire was rolled down a hill
at the Columbia Basin pole
yard.
None of the youths was in
volved In all of the Incident,
according to the statements of
those Involved. They did not op
erate as a gang.
Chief Kolkhorst said that the
coses were broken when an an
onymous phone call came to
the police station late one night
that someone apparently was
breaking Into Court Street Mar
ket. Officers went to the scene
and took two youths Into custo
dy. The tip apparently came
from an adult.
When the youths were ques
tioned. Information came to
light that linked others to oth
er offenses, and when the chain
continued, eventually 10 were
Implicated.
In most cases they took little
merchandise from the stores.
However a considerable quan
tity of ammunition and hard
ware was taken from Petty
John's. Included were 12 boxes
of .22 caliber cartridges, $15 In
cash, six padlocks, a wrench,
spray paint, a box of .300 mag
num shells, other ammunition
and probably other miscellan
eous Item. Mr. and Mrs. How
ard Pettyjohn had been aware
of burglaries but did not real
ize that so much had been tak
en until it was recovered from
the room of one of the boys In
volved. From Court St. Market, some
cigars, a bottle of hair lotion
and perhaps other small Items
were taken. Two cases of beer
had been moved towards the
back door.
At Murray, which also hous
es the State liquor store, en
tries had been made In an at
tempt to obtain liquor but none
was noticed to be missing. A
cigarette lighter and some col
ogne were among items taken
from the store. One entry was
made through a back window,
which was later covered with
steel bars. A later entry was
made by crossing the Gazette
Times roof to reach a higher
ter-ln-law, Mr. and Mrs. Dick
Ekstrom and family.
Dennis E. Swanson, who re
cently completed basic training
as a commercial airlines pilot
at Dallas, Texas, with Branilf
Airlines, has accepted a posit
ion as a pilot with Northwest
Orient Airlines. He will be bas
ed at Minneapolis, Minn., and
last week moved Mrs. Swanson
and three children to that city.
Mrs. Biddle Wins
$5 in Who's Who
Entry of Mr. Marion (Shar
on) Biddle of Heppner was
drawn from the many Who's
Who contestant slip Tusdny
afternoon by Chief of Police
Glen Kolkhorst, again acting as
Juilge, and Mr. Biddle thereby
win a $.1 prize.
She missed $25 more because
she slipped on one of the clues
that Identified Ed Gonty as the
Who's Who of the week In the
August 17 Issue of the Gazette
Time. Mrs. Biddle failed to spot the
clue, "Mustang alum" which
was Included In the Pettyjohn
Farm and Building Supply ad
vert isement on the classified
page. Under the rules, dues may
be In 8onsors ads wherever
they appear In the paper, and
contestants should not overlook
the classified page.
Because Mrs. Biddle failed to
find all the clues, the prize
next week will go to a possi
ble $55. Five dollars will go to
the person whose name Is
drawn if he correctly Identifies
the mystery pcron, and $50
will be added If he gets all
clues.
The coming contest, based on
clues In this week's (August
24) paper, will be last In the
Who's Who series. To be eli
gible In the final competition,
entries must be placed In box
es by Tuesday afternoon at 4
o'clock. Entries must be depos
ited in the boxes at Jack's Chev

der to cross a narrow space be
tween the buildings.
Admission to the IOOF hall
was apparently gained by shin
nylng up a guy wire to the roof
top (a feat that took some
courage) and going through a
skylight. Only two billiard balls
(both 8-balb!) were taken from
the hall.
Chief Kolkhorst said that
powder from the magnum shells
taken from Pettyjohns was used
by some of the youths in mak
ing smoke bombs.
Most of the entries and van
dalism occurred in early morn
ing hours with the youths going
out after their parents were
asleep. In some cases they were
sleeping in the yards at their
homes and left unnoticed by
the parents.
The chief of police and the
Judge said that parents have
been cooperative In helping to
clear up the cases.
"Their attitude has been ex
cellent," Chief Kolkhorst said.

Monotonous, isn't it?
And whoever seeks to check
the continuous maximum tem
peratures for the long stretch
might also want to look at the
minimums. The nights have
brought some perspiration, too.
Last Wednesday through Sun
day had consecutive minimums
of 62. 65, 63, 61, and 61, Would
n't those minimums feel won
derful as maximums along
about next February?
Bat If you are amona thos

book to dispute ltl
If you go back to the last
rainfall on June 22 of this year
and start from there, you'll find
that there has been no day with
a maximum temperature of less
than 78 degrees (August 7) and
only one other In the 70s (79
on July 8).
There have been 32 days of
90 degrees or higher (17 of these
95 or higher), and 26 days in
the 80-90 range, with empha
sis on the high 80's.
Gilliam said that a few drops
of rain fell early Sunday morn
ing, but not so'8 you notice it
and not enough to measure.
The main evidence was a few
spots that a person might find
in the dust on top of a car.
Of course, if you insist on
setting records, there Is still a
chance that the rainless string
might go on for some time yet
and challenge that 1929 mark.
After all, it isn't snowing to
day (Tuesday), and the Arbuck
