During Friday's season op ener, starting at 7:30 p.m. in lone, the Cards will have their 1 hands full with Touchet. They've really got some animals on their team," commented Meyers, noting that Touchet boasts a few players in the six-foot-three, 205-pound range. A win over the overgrown Touchet team in the season opener could have a positive '. psychological effect on the Cards that could carry well into regular conference play, he noted. But the Cardinals' biggest adversary in Big Sky action will in all likelihood be Arlington, last year's state champs, who look tough again this year, Meyers said, with a number of big players and a string of all-conference linemen The annual auction sale of breeding sheep of the United , States Sheep Experiment Sta tion, in cooperation with the University of Idaho, will be held on Thursday, September 21, 1978 at the Experiment Station headquarters about six miles north of Dubois, Idaho.

Truman Messenger.county senior transportation chair man, stated that the new bus needs many asjustments. Re ynolds said that all eight buses sent to a northeastern Oregon did not meet specifications.

Heppner football i444044444 Cont. from page 5 remains a bit of a question mark, according to Sporseen, with John Bier the likeliest candidate to start during Friday's season opener. Bier, a southpaw and an ace pitcher for Morrow County's Babe Ruth baseball team during the summer, "has shown more improvement than anyone else on the team," commented the Mustang coach. "He's a good ball handler, but we won't have him running the ball," he added. Other candidates for the QB slot are freshman Doug Hol land, who will likely be the starting JV quarterback, and Lionel Woods, whom Spor seen termed "an intelligent first-year player." Other starters will include Ray Miller at center and on the defensive line, and speed sters Scott Groshens and Dale Holland as defensive ends. Sporseen was wary about the competition his team will face on Friday. "I don't have any idea what Pilot Rock is like this year," he said. "I'm pretty nervous about it. ..but I . think you have to be a little scared to play good football."
