Over The
Tee Cup
By MARIE McQUARRIE
The Heppner High School Golf
Team has had very little
recognition, heretofore, by this
column. The reason for this
could be, they play their
tournaments and meets so
much earlier in the season than
the regular golfing starts. Do
think it is time to put these boys
in the news. They probably will
be future very good golfers,
either here or wherever thev
make their homes later on.

The first meet this year at
Willow Creek Country Club will
be held this coming Saturday,
March 31st at 9:00. Teams
participating are Umatuia, i ne
Dalles, Wheeler County, River
side and Heppner. Anyone
interested in watching these

athletic sport always make it
more interesting for those doing
the playing. Kind of boosts their
ego, you know.
Tom Shear is the coach of the
golfers and has been for the past
few years. The boys are
fortunate to have a teacher that
is also a good golfer, as he can
show them some of the finer
points of the game.
The members of the Heppner
High School team are Bill
Jepsen, Mike Mills, Gary Hunt,
Barry Munkers, Cliff Harris,
Mark Cutsforth, Doug Gunder
son, Brian Boner, Rob Eckman,
David Campbell, Jim Boyce
and Larry Groce.
April 5th the team goes to The
Dalles. Riverside will play a
duo here on April 12th at 1:00.
Best luck to our boys.

the feeling of sterness that
prevailed during that time, and
simple furniture, to show the
forbidding attmosphere of the
area, are being used on the sets.
No curtain will be used during
the performances. The scenes
will open and close with total
blackouts. The effect of lighting
is important throughout the
play, and will be used several
times during the different
scenes to achieve a special
effect.

direction of Mrs. Lynda Slush
er, English teacher at HHS,
consists of both community
adults and high school students.

played by a student from grade
school.
