Sherman In one of its better defensive games of the season, Ione's junior high football team battled to an 18-6 victory over North Sherman last week. Coach Jerry Martin praised his defensive unit of Denny Starr, Steve Millman, Roger Childers, Tim Patton, Craig Gutierrez, Donny Taylor, Craig Hams and Howard Leavitt for their efforts in the Bleacher Seats Cont. from page 5 , team should stay home. Revenge could be in the air At any rate, I urge any of you fans who haven't seen a game this year to come on out and see the Mustangs play. The lone Cardinals continue to roll. It is looking more and more like the season ender will be for all the marbles. The Cardinals traveled to Echo to play the Cougars last Friday. Someone got confused, because it must have been a track meet. The final score was 62-26. With that much scoring, there wasn't much time for anything but running up and down the field. It would be quite a feat to have the Cardinals and the Mustangs wind up the season as champs in their respective leagues. The Cardinals seem to have the ability to score any time from anywhere on the field. The backs run the ball very well and Dennis Stefani shows a great deal of poise and confidence throwing the ball. The receivers have good hands and also run well after the catch. The defense does its share also, with fumble recoveries and pass interceptions. Also, do not forget that Coach Gordon Meyers has the option of a field goal in the strong leg of Dennis Stefani. I received an anonymous note that I should write a note about the outstanding chain gang at the Heppner home games. "With the exception of one member needing a haircut, they seem to be the class of their tasks."

Leavitt, unfortunately, suffered a broken arm while making a tackle during the contest, and will be sidelined for the remainder of the season. "Our defense did a super job for us," commented Martin. Ione's offense was none too shabby, either. The Junior Cards began scoring on a 30-yard pass play from Starr to Patton. Starr made the second lone TD, diving across the end zone from one yard out. The final Junior Card touchdown came on a half back pass from Donny Taylor to Tim Patton. lone held North Sherman scoreless the entire second half. The Junior Cards will re main idle this week, then travel to Condon on Nov. 2 for the final outing of the season.

Points are awarded on the basis of fair programs and facilities, fi nancial report reviews, ac tivity reports, and on progress made towards reaching goals. The state evaluator stated in the report on the Morrow County Fair that fair officials were "a dedicated group of people who work very hard."
