the proRrnm of tho Soroptimlst
club at its luncheon meeting
last Thursday noon by two
members of tho teaching staff,
Mrs. VI Lanham and Mrs. Ha

The Student Exchango pro

available where a hich school
youth from a foreign country
is Invited to live in a commu
nity and attend the local high
K. luinl The nroL'ram also pro
vides opportunities for a local
student to be sent abroad to
study the culture of another
country and live in a foreign
home.
Purpose of the student ex
change program Is "to promote
understanding and friendly re
lations among the inhabitants
of tho world by giving high
school students the opportunity
to know each other's culture,
people and countries personal
ly tho main purpose of the
I.S.E. program is not tourism,
but serious study."
The sneakers told how a for
eign student may be sponsored
either for a 10-week period or
for the full school year. A foe
of $30 must be provided by any
sponsoring group for the 10
week time, or a $550 scholar
ship fee for the full school year
period.
Interest of the Soroptimlst
club in participating in helping
to sponsor such a program
would be stimulated through
its committee on international
goodwill and understanding.
The Soroptimist organization is
Requirements have been Ret
up bv the exchange program
for both the host school and the
host family, with which the stu
dent will live. These Include the
facts that "the school has to
select a suitable host family;
work out an Interesting sched
ule for the ISK student and
guide and counsel him through
out his stay. The host family
should have at least one of their
own children in high school.
They must have an excellent
reputation in the community,
patience and understanding as
well as a genuine Interest in
foreign cultures. Also, they
must be financially able and
have sufficient living space to
support the I.Sh, student. The
only financial obligation for the
host family Is to provide food
anil shelter."
Mrs. Lanham and Mrs. Dick
spoke of many of the benefits
gained by not only the visiting
student, but by the host school
through their associations with
tho students, by closer cultural
ties and understanding of the
other countries, by strengthen
ing the foreign language pro
gram within the school, with
tho opportunity for more conver
sational language. The host
family also experiences a close
bond and lasting friendship
with the exchangee , ana pro
vided an opportunity to "look at
things through other eyes," the
speakers emphasized.
Many of the Heppner High
school students are anxious to
get ISE program underway here,
they said, but considerable or

need to be made, along with

Stop Card Five
Hitting only 19 shots of 73 at
tempts, the lone High school
basketball team lost its first
league game of the season Sat
urdav night to McEwen at
Athena. 47 to 44.
Until that time, the Cardinals
had defeated every team they
faced, including the Heppner
Mustangs.
lone, despite its cold night
from the floor, battled into a
one-point lead with one minute
to go, 41-40, but four free throws
made on one-and-one situations
by the Scotties in the ensuing
few seconds iced the game for
McEwen.
The first quarter proved to be
the diference in the game. Mos
es of the Scotties fired three
successive buckets on jumpers
from 20 feet out, his only field
goals of the night. But these
gave the McEwen five a fast
start, and they took a 16-9 lead
by the end of the period. Going
into the second quarter, they
rolled ahead at one time, 22 to
9, their biggest lead of the night.
While lone was having a cold
first half, the Scotties were hit
ting at a near 50 percent clip,
bagging 10 of 21. In the same
time, lone hit only eight of 40
attempts.
McEwen played "ironman
ball," the five starters going all
the way without substitution.

ers with his 20 points on eight

three years, reaching a maxi
mum of $5800. Present sched
ule also starts at $5200 but
reaches a maximum of $5500 at
the end of the third year.
A salary Index for girls'
coaches was also established as
follows: High school volley
ball, .02: basketball, .02; track,
02. Elementary, all activities,
.02. If the same instructor
coaches both high school and
elementary school sports, the
elementary Index will be a to
tal of .02 and not .03. Maxi
mum for any teacher, coaching
all sports In grade and high
schools, was thus set at .08.
Fulleton Bid Accepted
The board accepted the Din
of Fulleton Chevrolet Co. of
$2,511 for a 30 passenger school
bus chassis with S100 addition
al for delivery. Fulleton's bid
was low among four received
the others being Heppner Auto
Sales, Farley Motor Co., and
Morrow County Grain Growers
Bid of Schetkv Equipment Co,
on the bus body or $2,aai.s
was accented. The company will
furnish a Superior body and al
low tradem of $765 on the old
bus. With delivery of the bus
by Fulleton Chevrolet Co., the
Schetky body bid was slightly
lower than the only other bid
er, Phillips Long Ford sales.
Committee Appointed
Chairman Don McEIligott ap
pointed members of a district
building committee, which he
prefers to call a "long range
planning committee." He said
additional members will be
named when they have agreed
to serve.
Those announced are as fol
lows: Heppner area Dr. Wal
lace Wolff, Bob Jones and Or
val Matheny, alternate; Board
man area Mrs. Dewey West,
Vernon Russell; Irrigon area
Orval Buchanan, Bill Parker;
lone area Louis Carlson, Gar
Swanson; Lexington area El
den Padberg. Supt. Daniels will
act as secretary and Chairman
McEIligott will serve in a non
voting capacity. Another single
member is to be named for each
of the Heppner and lone areas.
A meeting of this committee
is scheduled with the advisory
committee on January 3.
Chairman McEIligott said
that he envisions the commit
tee's work as that of "looking
over the school system, seeing
wnat we have now, determln
ing what we want to do and
when we want to do it."
Riverside Progresses
Progress on the Riverside
school was reported bv the su
perintendent. It is expected
that workmen will start roof
ing tho structure this week and
they are now putting in heat
ducts. Most of the electrical
work has been completed, and
the board authorized $849.50 ad
ditional for electrical change
oraers.
Supt. Daniels said that the
well being drilled has tested at
not less than 260 gallons per
minute at a depth of 99 feet.
This Is better than anticipated
and It now appears that this
will save the district $1300 by
being able to stop at the shal
lower depth.
The question of "What will
we do If the building Isn't fin
ished by April 1?," date that
the old school must be evacu
ated, is one yet to be answer
ed. The superintendent said
that this must be discussed at
tho January meeting.
Purchase of lockers for the
dressing room, 226 chairs. Ven
etian blinds, and curtain track
to equip the new building were
approved by the board. This ex
penditure of some $6800 com
pletes the use of the $17,000 set
aside for equipment for the
building in the 1967-68 district
budget.

Heppner High school, and chair
man of the Greater Orepnn nth.
letic League, reported on prob
lems facine the lea cup Tho
league, he said, is split in two
divisions and most members
favored a 5-5 split of the in
teams. However, Vale and Nys
sa couldn't meet the fi-5 sniff
in football and keep their com
mitments with nenrhv IHahn
schools, so the football season
was operated on a 6-4 split, but
basketball and baseball la to
be 5-5.
The football season this year
was played with six teams in
the west and four in the east,
Pilot Rock Joining Enterprise,
Vale and Nyssa In the east.

plans were made for the next
football season, but Carpenter
said that he then received three
calls from administrators say

not moot their commitments.
A special meeting was held
In La Grande, and it was pro
posed there that a league round
robin bo played in football. It
passed 7-3.

seven of the nine other teams
in the league with Enterprise!
