By halftlme, the count stood 50 to 29. Fortunately, the winners simmered down In the second half and limited their scoring to 34 while the Mus tangs managed 28. Russ Kilkenny, Heppner cen ter, and Bill McLeod, forward, made double figures for the Mustangs, but they were the on ly ones who could find the range. Kilkenny ended with 19 points and McLeod had 12. John Holmes followed Volz in DeSales' scoring with 19, and Doug Moramarco picked up 12. In previous meetings, Heppner has pretty much had its own way over DeSales, holding a considerable margin in games won. Evidently the Washington team decided that this was the time to put a stop to the trend. HEPPNER 57 jrg ri ip 4 4 3 Li McLeod Hall Kilkpnnv ODonnell Stillman McCabe Ppttviohn. L. Pettyjohn, S.
