SIX The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, December r Free-throw shooters in the annual Elks Free-throw Contest put all their thoughts and efforts behind each toss. There are no easy winners, but lots of fun in trying. Those free throws just don't come too easy in this league Sometimes it helps to clamp down a little harder on the tongue. Others try to zero in with a hardline eye squint. Some like the two hand set, the overhand pitch or the underhand knuckler. The basic launch in the general direction is also common. When you're 4'2" and standing at the foul line, the basket might as well be hanging on the ceiling. Still, a bunch of youngsters showed up recently at the Heppner and lone gyms to try their luck in the annual Elks Free Throw Shooting Contest. Results from the two schools were compiled and winners were named in six categories. Fish and Wildlife Dept. compiling new emergency hunt rosters The Fish and Wildlife De partment will begin compiling new emergency hunt rosters, one for each county in Oregon, beginning January 1, 1978. The lists will be effective through June 30, 1979. Any Oregon citizen over 18 years of age may apply for the emergency hunt list for one county where he would be interested in hunting if an emergency season should be declared. The county does not need to be the applicant's county of residence. Names of applicants are kept in a card file in the order received beginning January 1. No applications received before January 1 will be placed in the file but anyone who may have applied early can apply again after January 1. Application should be made on a postcard or other similar-sized card, not by letter. The words EMERGEN CY HUNT should appear across the top of the card and the applicant should print his name, address, daytime tele phone number, and the name of the county. Only one card per person can be accepted but if several people wish to apply as a group, they can by stapling their cards together or enclos ing them in an envelope. Applications should be mailed to the Fish and Wildlife Department, P.O. Box 3503, Portland, Oregon 97208. Emergency hunts are not often called and there is no assurance any will be neces sary in the next year and a JOE SINGLETON 414S.E.
