FOUR The heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, December 6.
1979
With Justine U'rulhcrforri ,A J
So now local football fans have viewed two state
championship teams this fall lone and St. Mary's, and know
why each of these teams has repeated its winning ways for a
second successive year.
This month basketball has become king and queen of
sports. Followers of the ball-through-a-peach-basket game
must salute its inventor, James A. Naismith. Naismith, a
Y.M.C.A. physical-education instructor, worked to create a
team sport that could be played indoors during the winter
months and he surely succeeded. Today's game is still
basicaly as Naismith put it together in 1891. '
If you didn't get out to the Artifactory last Saturday you
missed a really splendid opportunity to see and purchase a
tremendous variety of unusual gifts. Shoppers seemed
pleased, and most of the sellers stated that the affair was
better than in its earlier years. Again this area's great
diversity of talent was represented.
It seems it would have been impossible to crowd all the
parked vehicles into any single parking area in the south
county except at the fairgrounds. Although folks came and
went all day, the parking spaces were occupied from before
the 10 a.m. opening until the 4 p.m. closing.
The addition of the Heppner Garden Club's Christmas
greens workshop into the room adjoining the main sale floor
proved to be a plus for both of these annual pre-Yule affairs.
Many front doors will now be brightened by evergreen
wreaths or swags that were constructed by the ladies of the
homes.
Both the American Association of University Women and
the Garden Club missed the presence of an outstanding and
most helpful member, because Jane Rawlins was confined to
her home with a stubborn, heavy cold.
A commentary of sorts on the reading habits of Morrow
County folks was evidenced at the Artifactory. For sale were
many books donated by individuals. In addition books were
offered for sale by the Heppner Public Library. These were
priced at 10 cents for paperbacks and a quarter for
hardbacks, but they seemed to sell very slowly. After a time
the price was cut in half. Then as the 4 p.m. closing
approached it was announced that the books were free for the
taking, which helped move some of them off the sales tables.
or they buy books and periodicals regularly.
Wasn't it good to awaken to a dandy increase in
temperature last Sunday morning? The rows of icicles and
the crusty snow had disappeared and the danger of icy falls
was gone for a while. Lots of us wish that winter's ice could
be outlawed somehow.
There are always those among us who manage to esape
to balmy climes. Mary Bryant returned from Hawaii about
the time Helen Currin went off to take her look around the
land of grass skirts, pineapples and the garbge strike which
ended this week. Helen was lucky; she came home just
before the torrential rains struck.
Lois and Ernie Winchester went to Orlando, Florida,
where Lois attended a Humane Society of the U.S. meeting.
They also visited Ernie's brother, Ben Winchester, and his
wife Eris in Tampa. While in the tropical state they took a
look at Disney World and the renowned Busch Gardents, too.
The Winchesters flew home via Santa Rosa, Calif., where
they enjoyed a visit with son Lowell Turner and his family.
Lois will be happy to talk with folks about the Humane
Society meeting.
Community members, especially those connected with
Heppner High School as teachers or students, are very
saddened by the untimely, tragic death of new English
teacher Chuck Wyatt last Saturday. He had only been
working here for two months but had already made many
friends.
Local merchants have their windows so nicely decorated
with beguiling items. Wouldn't it be fun to buy, buy, buy?
Senior Citizens
The Craft Ladies of the
Neighborhood Center were
well satisfied with the sale of
their decorative and useful
items at last Saturday's Arti
factory. They say that they
still have a few of most items
'which they will continue to sell
at the center and which make
inexpensive and practical
gifts.
The Social Security Repre
sentative will be at the
Heppner Center from 10 a.m.
until noon, Friday, Dec. 14.
