eppner youngsters
Special Olympic bowling this weekend
by Elane Blanchet
If the first games bowled by
Sue Dicker's Special Educa
tion Class are any indication,
Morrow County may very well
by the home of some medal
winners when the eight-child
squad returns from the 1978
Special Olympics Bowling
Tournament to be held at
Hillsboro's Park Lanes on
Jan. 27-28.
Excitement and pride were
felt by both the bowlers and
their instructors as the pins
fell at Heppner Bowl last
Thursday. Most of the chil
dren had never held a bowling
ball and noticable improve
ment was attained by the end
of the 10-frame game, the first
of a three-game average
required to participate in the
Olympics.

Thousands of babies come
into the world and have to
fight to survive. Many of them
don't make it. Others are too
small to breathe on their own,
too weak even to cry, or have
hearts too tiny to function,
correctly.
"The March of Dimes is
working to help these babies
to protect the unborn and the
new born," Mrs. Gentry said.

Ms. Dicker said that the
Special Olympics, held in
many sports, is designed to
help build coordination and
self esteem for children with
physical and learning disabili
ties. It also gives them the
change to enjoy competitive
sports with their peers and get
acquainted with other young
sters with disabilities.
The Hillsboro tournament
will be the first Special
Olympics event with Heppner
competitors but not the last.
