stated. "The kids really
wanted this one bad." one
wonders what he told Pirate
Coach Mike Wetnerell at the
end of the game Surely, if he
said "Your kids played a great
game." he must have been
kidding, for no team can take
a beating week after week and
still be expected to go out
there and try. But the Pirates
did.
This is the first year the
Pirates have been forced into
the Columbia Basin League,
because of their school enroll
ment. Riverside had two
students over their enroll
ment, so they must play in a
league that outclasses them.

It isn't because the Pirates
lack guts that they have lost
with such lop-sided scores, but
because some coach w ants his
boys to "win big."
this is the theory of Modern
day coaches, "Go out there
and w in. to hell with the other

never forget us."
Good philosophy, good

pened to sportsmanship'' Or to
the old adage. "You've got to
learn to lose before you can
learn how to win"?
If this is the case, the
Pirates have learned how to
lose, for they have only won
one game in the entire season.
They have played week after
week in an effort to win
another, game, knowing the
odds were against them. That
takes guts.
Smothering them 78-0 so
some high school player can
boost his college-entrance
average doesn't take guts. It
doesn't even require brains.
To all the players and the
entire coaching staff of the
Riverside Pirates, who only
won one game but never lost
their guts, goes loud applause
for a job well done. Have a
winning team next year, for
there are no losers on that
team, regardless of the score.

EaMern Oregon elk hunters
enjoyed a fine opening week
end, according to field re
ports. Elk w ere w idely distributed,
in part because of mild
weather conditions so far and
partly because early season
rains caused a widespread

Wet ground made for ideal
stalking conditions with hun

balmy by elk hunting stand
ards but cooler temperatures
moved into the eastern part of
the state on Sunday with
widespread heavy rains and
snow above 5.500 feet eleva

hunting pressure was reported
in most hunting areas. Early
snows also came as a bonanza
to elk hunters!

large percentage of the Ches
nimnus bull population has
already been taken.
Although hunter success
was good in most other areas,
game managers feel there are
still enough bulls remaining to
provide good hunting during
the remainder of the season,
especially if storms start the
elk moving to lower locations.
The Heppner Unit was one
area where hunters found
many of the elk already
concentrated on the lower
elevation wintering range.
This was apparently because
of more favorable food con
ditions there.
In general, prospects for the
rest of the season look very
good. Most hunters are hoping
for a good tracking snow.

Statistics went out the
window when the Heppner
High School's girls athletes,
the Fillies, won second place
in district tourney play in
volleyball after being In last
place at the start of the
season.
This Is the second year the
Fillies have competed in
league play.
The girls had a poor season,
winning one and losing five,
All agreed bringing home the
second place trophy made
their efforts worthwhile.
One of the disappointments
the girls had to contend with
was the poor attendance by
both the townspeople and
students. It probably wouldn't
have changed the score or

Elk hunts women,
she gets away
Several elk hunters are
recapping the stories of their
hunting prowess but at least
one person is telling of her
success in finding an elk when
she really wasn't looking for
one.
Mrs. Willard French was
hunting, but not for elk. She
was in the woods looking for
knots of wood or curled tree
limbs to use for floral ar
rangements. She left her
group and went down a bank"
into a little clearing. The
moving bushes and crackling
leaves warned her that some
thing was approaching and
that it was close by.
A huge set of horns emerged
into clear view just a few feet
from her, and as Carmen
relates. "It was the biggest
bull elk I have ever seen. He
was huge. I had heard of
people who couldn't move
from fright, but I had never
experienced it before. I simply
could not move or talk."
The elk disappeared on the
far end of the clearing as
quickly as he had come.
- .Alary Iloltz added that when
Mrs. French returned to the
group, "her mouth was mov
