HHS students
raise $303 for
stricken girl
The student council at
Heppner High School worked
fast in obtaining $303 for the
Michael Boylan fund as it
began collecting donations
last Monday and concluded
the event Thursday.
Despite various charitable
funds that have poured into
Pendleton for the little girl
with her disease of the bone
marrow, her recent graft from
'an older sister failed to take
and she will be undergoing
another graft from another
sister in the near future.
Spring sports begin
"Spring has sprung," ac
cording to some of the
elevating atheletes at Hepp
ner High School who are going
out for track this year.
Practice has already begun
for tracksters. And the buse
ball squad has begun to
stretch winter-weary pitching
arms.
Some atheletes are going to
be competing in both sports,
making a full training sched
ule. The golf teams for both
boys and girls is reportedly
receiving many participants,
all of whom will be practicing
at the Willow Creek Country
Club. This is the first year the
girls have competed in golf.
At lone High School spring,
sportsters have started tennis
as part of the usual spring
sports.
These three students at Riverside High School had nothing
better to do during a 7th period last week so they got
permission to clean up the school grounds. From the left,
they are David Hug. Don I.eighton, and Jack Itrasel.
