Diamondmen Face
Sherman Saturday
By BOB DOBBS
Another league clash Is on
the schedule for the Heppner
High diamondmen this week
end against the Sherman Coun
ty Huskies. This first meeting
or these clubs will be on Sher
man's home field, Saturday,
April 20, at 10:00 a.m.
Heppner's win-loss record Is
far from good but we feel the
team is better than the record
shows. The big problem has
been with fielding the hit ball,
Both mental and fielding errors
nave played their role as disas
ter-makers.
The infield work Is very good,
with the Horsemen working
nard and well for each play, in
fact, we watched a double-play
work to perfection in one inning
but three errors then followed.
Batting doesn't seem to be a
problem, with nearly everyone
pulling off one or two hits a
game. Mike Smith, Earl Ayres,
and John McCabe have warm
ed the cowhide consistently
throughout the year.
The Mustangs are a good
club potentially, but the errors
have been ruining their at
tempts to reach fame. The day:
they can combine limited er
rors with their pitching and hit
ting ability is the day they
will start winning.

Hold Meeting
(Continued from page 1)
'The primary reason for the
deficit will be a lack of re
ceipts," he said.
The board also discussed the
reorganization of intermediate
education districts. Daniels said
that the reorganization commit
tee had not been receptive to
the Morrow county district's pro
posal that this district join with
Umatilla and Union counties to
form an I.E.D. because it would
leave Wallowa county standing
alone.
Instead, the committee has
recommended to the state that
Umatilla and Morrow compro
mise one district, Union and
Wallowa another, and Malheur
and Baker a third.

Willows Park Developing
At the east side of the Wil
low Creek bridge at Heppner
Junction is Willows park, where
access is obtained by the new
interchange. There will be a
sheltered water area of several
hundred acres here, he said,
that will form a quiet zone
when it is too rough to go out
in small boats on the main res
ervoir. There will be a launch
ing area, park and access road
here.
The Willows park has great
potential for future use. Locat
ed between the railroad and the
reservoir it will be very con
venient for highway travelers as
well as for local persons.
At the Boardman park area,
pilings have been driven in a
protected area (the old gravel
pit near the old Riverside school
site). The port district will put
in some docks, Slater said, and
a small marina could be bunt.
At the Dunes area between
Irrigon and Boardman will be
headquarters for the Fish and
Wildlife Service game refuge.
While this will be a refuge,
there will be certain areas des
ignated for hunting, he said.
At Irrigon will be a park ana
launching area. Irrigon is put
ting in piling, and it is hoped
to put in docks. This site does
not have the potental for a full
marina, he said.
A major marina will be lo
cated at Umatilla.
