"Oregon I II members have been studying local and stale government in action for nearly 15 years," says Cal Monroe, Ore gon State University Assistant State 1 H leader, "with the hope that they will be better inform ed citizens and take a more ac tive part in their government. Each county, plus the City of Portland and Warm Springs In dian Reservation annually sel ects a boy and girl to attend the State 4 -If Conference held each February in Salem. This years Know Your State Govern ment Conference will be held Feb. 6-7-8, and Is billed as the state-wide focal point of citi zenship activity. While in Salem, the older 4-II members meet with state offic- aLs and visit state buildings. During legislative years, mem bers of the Legislative and oth- rs meet with them to review the law making process. In non-legislative years, rep resentatives of the Legislature meet with them. Every year, representatives of the judicial and executive branches discuss their duties and concerns. "Because these young people will be voters in two or three years, tne state and local gov ernnient programs are even more important than before, Monroe emphasizes. 'They offer a view of government not found in textbooks". Rounding out the -MI govern ment program, is the National 4-H Conference, held each spring Washington, D. C. Oregon nils our young people chosen on the basis of their overall II records plus personal inter views. In Washington, the young Oregonians join with others from all states and Fuerto Rico for a first hand look at the na tion's capitol and how the fed eral government operates. "The 4-H government pro grams oner the soon-to-be voter an oportunity for face-to-face discussions with the people who make our form of government work. Citizenship is a full time job, but you have to know how the system works If you're to he successful at It," Don points out. The government programs are Just one aspect of 4-H citizen ship training, which also in cludes learning how to speak before groups, preside at meet ings and plan community proj ects. Additional information about the "Know Your Government" programs is available at the Morrow County Extension office in Hcppner.

NEW PHONE 989-8466 Sand Hollow Art Shoppo ria f INK HOUSE tXXWGTOW iftfa w rfil Mustangs in By BOB PLOYHAR After a dominating first half, the Hcppner Mustangs ran out of gas and fell to the Grant Union Prospectors, 63-55 last Fri day at Hcppner. Gary Watklns dumped in 10 points in the first quarter to give the Mustangs a 2211 advantage at the first buzzer. During the second quarter Hcppner continued to run over the taller Prospectors with their fast break. At the end of the half, Hcppner led the Prospect ors 31-21 and the hometown fans relaxed with visions of a vic tory. However, the intermission either took something away from the Mustangs or gave something to the Prospectors. As the third quarter progressed, the margin between the teams kept getting smaller until the buzzer when Grant Union held a 45-13 lead. The Mustangs made a futile attempt to come back in the fi nal period but Grant Union had the momentum and pulled out a 63-55 win. Steve Rhea led in the scoring department with 21 tallies. Oth ers scoring for Heppner were Watkins 13, Boyer 7, Craig Mun kers 6, McCabe 6, and Greg Green 2. The Mustangs made 21 of 40 free throws for 52.5.
