White Buffaloes Due Here Friday By MARK POINTER Madras' White Buffaloes will invade the domain of the HHS Mustangs Friday night in the Mustangs' third league basket ball game of the season. As the postponed Heppner- Wahtonka game had not been played at this writing (resched uled for Tuesday, Feb. 4), the league standings above will be changed, and Heppner will eith er lead the league or have drop ped below Madras into third place. Willie Fortsen and OUie San derville should prove to be tough with plenty of varsity ex perience behind them. Jeff Van dervelden should also provide some excitement for the visiting Buffaloes. Heppner's balanced scoring attack will be ready for the Madras boys. The following week-end the Mustangs travel to Moro Friday night, February 14, to play Sherman County. They will host the Wahtonka Eagles Saturday night, February 15. oires ear TIRES: REG. PRICE ($38.20) ($42.25) ($43.70) CLEARANCE PRICE $24.50 27.50 28.50 ?85 ea.

The contest was close with Heppner leading at all stops. The Mustangs' half time margin was 31-25 which had melted to three at the third stop, 44-41. In the last frame the Irish, led by Jim Volz, out scored the hapless Mustangs 15 10. In a bad shooting game, the Irish came out on top percentage-wise with a .307 mark while the Horsemen, who were con centrating on defense, shot a miserable .254 from the field. In their losing effort the Mustangs out rebounded the DeSales High quintet, 38-34. Jim Volz tied the game with 55 seconds left on the clock with two gift shots. Fouled as he went in for a lav-uo three sec onds before the buzzer, Volz dropped in two more free throws to win the game, until mis point. Heppner's defense had held Volz. the last year's Wash ington all-state selection to 11 points. In their second victory over the Mustangs the Irish were paced bv Chris Waggoner's 20 points. He was backed by Volz and Dan Batfany, with 15 and 10 tallies respectively. The Mustangs were led by Jon O'Donnell with 13 counters. John McCabe and Cal Ashbeck scored 12 each. In the preliminary, the local Jayvees dropped DeSales, 50 40, to extend their winning streak to four. The Baby Mustangs trailed the Irish 9-5 at the end of the first quarter. Lee Huson, high scorer for the game, then went to work and racked up 12 points during the second quarter to put Heppner into a 25-18 half time lead. Huson's total for the night was 25 points.

The writer, Mrs. Phyllis Shimko, is compiling historical facts for a book which she is writing, and is anxious to have information on this ear ly business. Parts of her letter follow: "Dear Miss Briggs: A school teacher, Keith Jensen of Molal la, who is a friend of Jake Haynes who has a relative who owns a drug store in Heppner, suggested I write to you. Haynes gave me a box marked Slocum's Sarsaparilla in the old Slocum's Drug Store in Heppner. They thought you might be able to tell me a little history of that drug store when it went in business and how long they were in business under that name. And perhaps you might even remember the Sarsaparilla and when they sold it. "I am writing you because I am writing a book on the his tory of all the different con cerns who made Sarsaparilla in the olden days. So anything you could tell me would be appre ciated for the book, which I will have printed soon. Many thanks for your help."

March 2 Is the deadline for filing such returns. Under the new law, the penalty for filing after this date Is $5 for each $1,000 (or fraction) of the true cash value of the property, but not less than $15. The assessor points out that the old law Imposed a penalty of only 5 of the tax due, with a $1 minimum. Also, under the old law. a notice of failure to file a return from the assessor to the tax payer was required, with an ad ditional 15 days permitted for compliance without penalty. Such a notice is no longer re quired, according to the asses sor. However, upon written re quest filed with him on or be fore March 2, and for good cause, he is authorized to al low a reasonable extension of time. If a taxpayer Is penalized for late filing, he may appeal to the County Board of Equalization during Its regular sessions and the board may revoke the pen alty on a proper showing that by reason of death or serious illness in the Immediate fam ily, or by unavoidable absence from the state, the return could not be filed bv the due date. There Is no appeal from the board in such a case. Questions concerning the new penalty and procedures may be answered at the assessor's of fice.
