Special $9.95 In 1970 Ilcppncr its league udlctic Prairie City. Oregon athletic leagues under the Scholastic Activities Associ ation are presently divided in to three classifications, A l, A 2 and B. Under the present system the OSAA has classified the schools in accordance with their avei- age daily membership. A 1 schools have memberships of ov er (i(;0 a day. A-2 schools varv from 200 (ilK). and B. under 200. The enrollment of these schools covers 9-12. The plan presented bv Dr. Koger Wiley of Washington State University will substitute enrollment of grades 1012. His plan is to redistrict our pres ent system from three to four, which will be classed as B. A. AA, AAA. In his proposal theie would be an ADM (average daily membership! of 0-69 for B school: A. 69-199: AA. 199. 599: AAA, 599-up. All assign ments for OSAA districts will be based on average daily membership. The proposal Is based on the system used in Washington State. Wiley, a graduate of Uni versity of Oregon, has coached in Oregon, so has had a taste of hoth systems. For example, our present league is composed of Grant Union, Burns, Madras, Wanton ka, Sherman, Nyssa, Vale, En terprise, and Pilot Rock. The size of these schools range from Heppner with an ADM of less than 200, to Madras with about 600. If the proposal passes, after 1970 there will be a drastic change in league membership. Heppner would probably be a member of the 7-A conference. which would comprise Prairie City, Stanfield, McEwen, Uma tilla, Pilot Rock, and Heppner. Condon, Sherman, Wasco County, and Culver would com prise the teams In district 6. District 8 teams would be En terprise, Wallowa, Joseph, El gin, Lnion, Adrian, and Pirn Eagle. Members of the Intermountain conference could chance. Herm :ston and Mac Hi of Milton- l-reewater could drop down to the AA classification aceordinp io ineir ADM, II the proposal passes. For those who are interested In the enrollment of various schools, the following list gives 1967 08 average daily member ship figures for grades 9-12, then for grades 1012: Hcrmiston Madras Mac Hi Burns Nyssa Wahtonka Vale Grant Union Pilot Rock Sherman Enterprise Heppner Umatilla Condon McEwen Stanfield Schools may petition to play in districts with schools of lar ger size, but may not drop down nto districts having schools with smaller ADM. 737 326 600 431 593 437 512 376 388 271 370 267 378 266 284 207 237 176 232 173 216 151 206 193 154 120 141 106 132 100 130 99 Bird Count Due fFor Second Year Before Christmas f LARRY PETTYJOHN Student fmm Heppner High will again participate In the Na tional Audubon Society Christ- inn mm coiiiii. uist year was the first time Jills had partlcl pated in the annual count, which is now in Its "8th year. The purjMiso of the count Is to Inform biologists all over the world alxiut nilgrational fly. ways, winter habitat and other (lain. Until last year, little was Known aix ut birds in this area. Approximately 53 positively identified species plus several unidentifiable species were re ported last year. One of the most unusual discoveries for this hab itat was it while-winged cross bill. This tiird Is generully found further ninth. "Even though our first at tempt at bird counting was a general success, some problems did arise," agreed some of the veterans of last winter's count. "But we hope to Iron out most of them this year." Some of the problems which arose were not covering the count areas thoroughly enough ami not r.cnifi carol ul enough in iticntllylng the birds. I he nth count also ran into a not lur handicap In the form of anout 12 inces of snow and cold Weather. The group was highly praised for its ambition In going ahead with the count, it is hoped tlir- weather conditions will not be as severe this year. ine counters will leave Thurs day morning, December 19. They win cover the same area as las year, a 15-mile diameter circle. The center is located about four miles south of Ruggs. This en compasses several types of bird habitat which include forests, open ridges, creek beds, cult vated land and others. The count area is divided Into eight sub areas, with a group of counters assigned to each sub area. Those expected to partici pate ire Mark Lovgren, Matt Murray. John Harris. Jim Schaf- fltz, Larry Pettyjohn, Rob Ab rams, Bill Greenup, Debbie War ren, Molly Becket. Bob Worden.

Four adult chaperones going along are Dorris Oraves, Hard man; Bill Rawlins of the Eight mile area; Bob Abrams, Hepp ner; and Miss Patricia Cassidy, biology instructor at HHS.

It appeared to be a certain tie or Mustang victory, but with ten seconds remaining on me iock, a Mustang Ban loss caused the game to slip out of their hands. The Prospector dom i n a t e d game saw Mike Hendrix toss in the winning points seconds be fore the final horn. Hendrix was also top gun for the Prospectors with 23 counters, of which 12 came in the first panel. The Mustangs were outscored in every period except the last when they tallied 18 to John Day's 9.

Recent visitors at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Padberg were her son and daughter-in- law, Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Tuck er, and two boys, Danny and Kyle of Salem. The family ar rived on Friday following Thanksgiving and remained to visit until the following Sunday. Visiting at the Padberg home over the past week-end were his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Archie Padberg, Jr., and family from Boring, who came to attend funeral services in Hermiston December 5 for his mother, Mrs. Susan Whit man. The family visited at the Padberg home from Thursday evening through Saturday before returning to their home. Mrs. Gordon (Jennifer) Spray of Pilot Rock visited her moth er, Mrs. Patricia Brindle, over Thanksgiving week-end.

Martin was director of the project for several summers, be ginning In 15)62. Recently. Dirk Rinehart, chairman of the Chamber's youth activities com mittee, suggested the possibili ty of a summer work program for youth here In lieu of the recreation prolect that was un dertaken on a trial basis dur ing the past summer. Thirty bovs carticiDated in the Hood River county project, doing such work as buildini? fountains, rest rooms, picnic ta bles and fireplaces in Darks: cutting wood; repairing and re- roofing a lodge building, cut ting shakes for the roof them selves. Their headquarters were lo cated in a camp at Cooper Spur. quite close to Mt. Hood. The 11-weeks program included some school dropouts and some straight A students. Their ages ranged up to that of junior in high school. The boys lived in four tent covered structures, and the camp staff included the director, fore man, cook and assistant cook. The boys received 87c per hour for their work, and the program was financed under a $15,000 an nual budget. Wasco county also started such a program, following in the pattern ot Hood River countvs Martin said. When Rev. Rinehart DroDosed the possibility of such a pro gram here, it was with tho thought that a vouth work Dro- ject would keep the young peo ple in worthful employment and allow them a chance to earn some money while helping de velop the community.
