eaten to cure the yellowness of
jaundice. Their ashes were
even applied with oil of roses

lone gridders honored by chamber
as coach tells of successful season

gold, and bamboo corals are

The lone High School foot
ball team was honored aftho
Heppner Chamber of Com
merce meeting Monday at.
noon at the West of Willow
Restaurant.
Coach Gordon Meyers spoke
to the chamber about the
success of the team as lone
won its second straight state
championship this year.
"Last year we were called
the Cardiac Cards which was
fitting because we pulled out
quite a few games in the final
seconds." Meyers said. "But
this year we really did not
have any close games with the
closest one being 20 points. I
do not know if the competition
was weaker or we were
stronger but I think it was a
combination of the two.
"We were stronger because
we had one more year of
experience. I do think the
teams in our league were
down this year compared to
last year.
"The championship game
(against Prospect) was
against one of the weaker
teams we played. There were
four teams in eastern Oregon
better than that team. North
Powder was better. Dufur was
better and Arlington was just
as good.
Prospect had two players
hurt in our game and two were
hurt going into the game so the
game might have been a little
closer if they had played but I
still don't think they would
have won but it might have
been a better ball game."
Coach Meyers said he has a
good nucleus of players com
ing back next year. The team
will lose six seniors to
graduation. lone's defense
will only lose one of the eight
starters but offensively, four
players will be missed. Quar
terback Dennis Stefani will
have to be replaced as will the
center and two guard posi
tions Movers apologized to the
people at the meeting who
followed the football team at
the buffet lunch.
"I saw Jim (Rogers) put out
a lot more food and he said the
team could really put the food
away." Meyers said. "I am
sorry if the people that came
in behind us did not get any
food
