Kindergarten Fails
To Qualify
For 4-C Funds
The Heppner Civic League
met Monday evening for a
budget meeting. Heppner First
grade teachers, Katherine Hos
kins and Linda Riley, were pres
ent and stressed the importance
of the kindergarten experience
for children.
Mary Thompson, Executive
Director of the Blue Mountain
4-C Council, explained why the
Heppner Kindergarten was not
able to receive the government
funds for which they applied.
She expressed the hope of more
government funds when the
present guidelines for funding
are evaluated. During the 1971
72 school year, the tuition, in
surance, and physical examina
tion fees will be paid for seven
kindergarten children who qual
ify under the present program.
It was decided that In order
to meet the expected kindergar
ten expenses the tuition would
be raised to $12.50, effective af
ter the wage-price freeze. How
ever, even with the tuition in
crease the Civic League will
still need the Semi-Annual
Rummage and Bake Sale to
meet expenses. The group real
istically reviewed all possibili
ties before deciding on the tu
ition raise.
The Heppner Kindergarten op
erates at a cost far below most
private facilities. It is the goal
of the Civic League to not on
ly meet the year's expenses but
to provide additional books, ed
ucational toys, and special
teaching materials so greatly
needed.

Post Offices, many business
firms and government agencies

Heppner Downs
Sherman in
Final Quarter
Thn iiennner Mustangs lour-
..v..,i tn Moro Friday night and
won over Sherman 25 to 8. The
game was the homecoming lor
Sherman and for three quarters
it looked as though the fired
im Huskies were going to win
a moral victory as neither team
could score the first three quar
ters.
Sherman won the coin toss
and elected to receive. On the
second play from scrimmage
Gary Watkins lntereeptea a
Husky pass and tne hu.skk.-s re
turned the favor on Heppner's
third scrimmage play by Inter
cepting a Watkins aerial. They
failed to gain on tne nt-xi wi
les and were forced to pum.
Heppner reciprocated and this
pattern held tor ine ni "

defense that thwarted the Mus

the failure of the Heppner lino
to open up holes and the backs,

During the half-time session
the Heppner coaching staff cor
rected the blocking and had the
backs run tighter than the first
half and so in the third quar
tho Mustangs received the
opening kick-off and rolled to
five quick first downs. Heppner
went to the air in an attempt
to score and a missed blocking
assignment caused Dean Wright
to be thrown for a long loss,
thus ending the scoring threat
for this time.
Sherman took over and after
gaining a first down were again
held and forced to punt. This
was the last time they were to
have the ball for the rest of
the quarter. After receiving the
Sherman punt, the Mustang of
fense began to assert them
selves again and with Barney
Marshall, Rory Stlllman and
Dean Wright alternating, march
ed down the field. With the end
of the quarter, the Mustangs
were on Sherman's fifteen with
a first and ten. On the first
play of the fourth quarter, Dean
Wright broke away for a TD
and then kicked the extra ppint
to give Heppner 8 points, Fol
lowing the kick-off, Sherman
went to the air on first down
and Wright intercepted and ran
it into the end zone for another
score making it 14 0. On the
