RIGHT The Heppner Gairttr-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, January 14. 19X2 Heppner JV boys lose a pair of ball games Around About By Justine Weatherford By now many of our shining New Year's resolutions are either already broken or about forgotten. This may be partly because of last-week's deep freeze which made it hard to stay with a pre-set schedule when so many meetings were canceled or postponed. However our public schools re-opened and the BMCC winter classes began on time enrolling interested learners who are grateful for the assortment of classes offered In this away-from-the-main-highway area. A great collection of beautiful pictures of Australia was shown and narrated at last week's Chamber of Commerce luncheon meeting by Chris Donaldson. They certainly took minds off of Heppner's chill. AFS student Chris, who is staying in the Bob Abrams home, quickly had her viewers and listeners thinking of visiting her home continent down under. New Chamber President Bob Harris announced committee chairmen for the year and urged them to form their committees and to be ready to really get functioning. Bob and Mrs. Harris moved to Heppner because they really like this area where Babe lived in her early years and where they had come to hunt during their residence in Toledo, Oregon. Bob is a strong believer in the importance of a local Chamber of Commerce. He says "I would like to talk to anyone about programs here that would strengthen the chamber and better this area." Do you realize that business men's associations existed in the days of the Roman Empire? The first group to have the name Chamber of Commerce was organized in Marseille, France, in 1599, 383 years ago. Such groups promote the interests of members and of business in general. In some European countries chambers of commerce are official agencies, supported by taxes. The International Chamber of Commerce is working to bring about closer international economic ties. Chambers work to bring new industries to their communities partly by furnishing information about their locations that may help those who might move into their areas. "In the U.S. a chief purpose of the organization is to improve and protect the free enterprise system, and also to work at developing private-business programs to help solve social and economic problems" according to the "World Book Encyclopedia." Only when all business people work together can a chamber effectively lead acommunity forward. In Morrow County it is well known that the economy is based on agri-business' and forestry with the recent additions of food processing and energy production. These activities bring considerable money here where some of it is spent. The Chamber of Commerce greatly needs more participation by representatives of these basic activities. The wisdom provided by government and school district personnel and doctors, lawyers and clergy contributes significantly to the strength of the organization. This winter the group here has sorely missed the attendance of two veteran members, Oscar Peterson and Orville Cutsforth, both of whom have been ill. The Chamber of Commerce of the United States was organized in 1912 during President Taft's administration; its headquarters are in Washington, D.C. One most encouraging sign of upward movement here came last week when Doug Smith, the new owner of Heppner Bowl, came to the first meeting of 1982 saying "I wish to join you. I am volunteering to serve on a committee." Doug and Mrs. and Mrs. Smith have been here less than a year, but have already made many friends. Maybe the new year, the newly installed officers, and the important continuing integration of many fine, comparatively new members, such as Ron McDonald, Ralph Limanen, David Sykes, Fred Toombs, C.W. "Hutch" Hutchinson, Bob Costa, Kristy Lovgren, Kenneth Miller, Tom McElligott, the Rev. Ed Watts and Doug Smith, with their fresh ideas and leadership abilities will bring the local organization to a position where it can better unify, serve and strengthen the business communities of this country. During these winter months many of us have more hours to watch TV. This week Channel 10, PBS, began presenting a tremendous 13-part BBC series, "Life on Earth," which in England ranked in ratings "only behind Queen Elizabeth's coronation, the Apollo II moon landing and the recent royal wedding." The series covers the beginning of life up to the present, closely following Evolution patterns. If you missed the first episode on Tuesday evening at 8 p.m. each program will be repeated at 7 p.m. the following Sunday. The Heppner Update Your GAZETTE "Outlook" Job Printing 676-9228 The Heppner junior varsity boys' basketball team lost a pair of games over the weekend. The Mustang JV's lost 34 - 32 to Riverside Friday night. January 8, and 55 46 to Pilot Rock Saturday night. Against Riverside, Heppner led at halftime 15 - 14 in a slow-paced game, but a lapse in the fourth quarter allowed the Pirates to pull away and lead by as many as nine points. However, the Mus tangs closed with a rush of points at the end of the game mid actually had a chance to tic the game in the last minute, said Coach Brent F,gKers. Heppner had one more field goal than Riverside, hut lost it at the foul line by converting just eight of IB free throws. Sid Kennedy led the Mus tangs in scoring with eight points and in rebounds with 10, Kennedy and Shane Iaufihlin led Coach Brent Eggers' special rating system with 6 ratings. ' According . to Eggers. another thing that hurt Hep pner was commiting 32 turn overs. "We missed an unbelievable amount of easy shots." said Eggers. "We put the ball on the floor too much instead of passing it. which resulted in many turnovers. Our team defense was very good, parti cularly in the first half." In the Pilot Rock game, the Heppner starters spent much of their time on the bench as the team committed 33 fouls, resulting in five Mustangs fouling out. Pilot Rock had 12 fouls in the ball game. Heppner continued its turn over problem, turning the ball over 3! times. Eggers said. Bids set for county projects Bids will be received by the Oregon Transportation Com mission on Thursday. January 2K for 12 projects estimated to cost $3.4 million, stated a recent news release from that department. Two of the projects are scheduled for Morrow County. The first project calls for replacement of the existing narrow timber Blackhorse Creek Bridge on Arcade Street in Lexington. It will be replaced by a wider concrete slab structure. Completion time is 180 calendar days, said the news release. A second county project involves grading and paving on the Juniper Canyon Road -U'xinglon - Echo Highway section of Bombing Range Road, with the project ending approximately 9.7 miles northeast of Lexington. The project is 2.48 miles long and the paved width is 30 ft. Completion time is 210 calen dar days, the news release concluded. Haves and Marty Britr scored 12 points apiece to lead Heppner, with the latter leading in, rebounds with eight. Mark Way led the rating chart with 12. followed by Hayes at B, Britt at 7, and Kennedy with 6. "I was extremely pleased with the players' effort," said Eggers. "We controlled the game until we got into foul trouble. We can't expect to win ball games if we continue to out-foul our opponents. As soon as we realize that, we'll start winning again.".
