Hpnrt Fund campaign chair
man, reported that the 1967 to
tal represented an increase of
$1,314,399 over the previous
high of $34,613,822 in Heart
Fund gifts set in 1966. Mr.
Cheatham Is chairman of the
board of directors of the Georgia-Pacific
Corporation.
The 1967 Heart Fund total, he
said, included $6,024,408 in be
quests and $3,864,954 in mem
orial contributions. During the
residential "Heart Sunday"
campaign last February, he no
ted, gifts amounting to more
than $11,000,000 were received.
Business sources, both compa
nies and their employees, gave
more than $8,000,000 to the
Heart Fund. All totals set rec
ords, he said.
Owen R. Cheatham, chair
man of Georgia-Pacific Corpor
ation and national Chairman of
the 1967 Heart Fund campaign,
said the increased contributions
from all segments of the public
constituted a mandate for the
American Heart Association to
continue and expand its cease
less fight against devastating
cardiovascular ills.
"Diseases of the heart and
blood vessels are the nation's
number one killer, taking more
than a million lives yearly
more than half of all causes of
death combined. Additionally,
more than 22 and a half-million
others in this land suffer
from cardiovascular diseases,
making these diseases the
country's leading health men
nee," Cheatham pointed out.
He added:
"Great progress has been
made in the fight against these
dread ailments, especially since
the first Heart Fund campaign
in 1949. Through ever-increasing
public support over the
years, the American Heart As
sociation has been able to
channel 133 million heart fund
dollars into scientific research
which has helped to save thous
ands oi lives.
The 1968 Heart Fund cam
paign will be conducted
throughout February by the As
sociation and its affiliates and
chapters nationwide. February
25 will be observed nationally
as Heart Sunday.
OSAA Approves
League Football
Round Robin Plan
Oregon School Activities Asso
ciation has approved a round
robin plan for football among
high schools in the A-2 Greater
Oregon league, according to a
letter received by Richard Car
penter, Heppner High school
principal and district 7 A-2
chairman, from A. Oden Hawcs,
executive secretary of the Uoaa.

The round robin schedule was
ho cnlrl to KPttlp Drob-
lems that had arisen because of
Nvssa and vale naving commit
ments with Idaho schools as
wpii as those in the Greater
Oregon league.
Carpenter said that some
school administrators in the dis
trict felt the time Is here when
Nyssa and Vale must decide
whether tney win piay wun
Idaho schools or Oregon schools.
ITnripr thp round robin Tjlan.
each of the schools in the league
would play each other school,
making nine league games each

playoff game would be requir

would represent the district. At
the Dresent time, a Dlavoff is
required between the eastern

La Grande at a meeting on De
cember 7 to follow the round

In rpnlvlnc to Camenter's let
ter notifying the OSAA of the
action, Hawes said, "Our asso
ciation approves this plan, since
iha rvi a itritJ rf ttphonlts in VOUT

desire to piay a rouna romn
schedule, and to my knowledge
nur association has never ruled
against the wish of a district
committee."

This year, Nyssa ana vaie
competed with Pilot Rock and

Water Project Funds Get FHA Veto
(Held over from last week)
Br DONNA EPPENBACH
IRRIGON The December
meeting of the Irrigon tlty
Council had all councllmcn In
attendance and In a lengthy ses
sion conducted business touch
iniz on a number of items.
Of foremost Interest was a
report on progress of the water
svstem. Mayor Chester wuson
read a letter from Farmers
Home Administration saying
funds for Irrlcon'a project had
been rescinded and that it was
possible they would not be re-
Instated before July 1, rJt.
The fact that the City had not
yet committed any funds, be
cause of Insufficient service ap
plications to assure revenue,
and final engineering and is
sue of bonds had been author
ized, appeared to be the cause
for action. Immediate applica
tion for reinstatement of the
funds for this fiscal year was
made by FHA's county office in
behalf of the city.
Only a few more applications
for service are needed in order
to proceed immediately should
funds be reinstated.
Mrs. Billy Griffin requested
that the City put in a water line
from her well to her house as
agreed when the city met a wa
ter need in the area in March
when the Griffin well went dry.
At that time the water line from
the CItv Service Building was
connected into the Griffin well
line and a resolution adopted
to the effect that an alternate
supply line would be burled 6
inches deep when they were
ready to use their well again.
It was also stipulated that they
could purchase the pipe from
the cltv when thev wished.
Mrs. Griffin suggested they
would buy the necessary plas
tic line if the city would bury
it 2 feet deep. The council felt
this was asking more than the
city had agreed to do, but stat
ed the Job would be done as
stipulated. Mrs. Griffin told the
council this would not be ac
ceptable to her. She was refer
red to the January meeting.
Three resolutions were adopt
ed. Two dealing with transfer
of the funds and one authoriz
ing a request to the State high
way department for endorse
ment of a tree planting pro
gram between the highway and
railroad through town. The pro
posed development for this
spring would only be a portion
of the overall plan and would
be from 4th to 8th atreets.
Signing of a legal services
agreement with City Attorney
Don Morrison for counsel dur
ing construction of the water
system was deferred to a later
meeting.
The Irrigon Home Extension
Chrlstmaa party was held
Thursday, December 14, at the
Irrigon Lions Club house. After
a ham dinner, Mrs. Orville Bu
chanan gave an Illustrated talk
on Japan, "Modern Japanese
Navy" and modeled and dis
plaved several of her beautiful
kimonos.
Mrs. Ellen Recder was releas

fhere's a modern twist to old-fashioned cookin' . . .
those wonderful electric appliances which let the
home-maker do more things... better... and
quicker!
An electric range, for example, takes the guessing
out of good cooking. Once you establish a superior
automatic timing devices which "watch" the meal
while you are doing other things with your family!
And very importantly, an electric range is safe be
cause it's flameless. That makes it cleaner, too.
Think of all the other wonderful electrical appli
ances that make the home-maker's day easier and
more efficient. Dishwashers take the drudgery out
of that unpleasant chore . . . today's models hold all
the dishes and utensils for family-size meals. An
electric disposer unit enables ydu to "wash" the
majority of your kitchen garbage down the drain
recipe, you can repeat it time after time because an
electric range lets you select the "just right" tem

Kitchen
Convenience
Electric appliances make it simple to prepare spe
cial treats. Mixers are in daily use for a wide as
sortment of jobs from preparing your favorite cake
to whipping potatoes. Tired of trying to cut meats
with a dull knife? Try an electric knife sharpener
or an electric knife . . , you'll soon be using it every
day. An electric toaster? Why, does anyone still
burn toast by using the oven?
Add all those wonderful electrical appliances to

thanks to low-cost rural electric power.
