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 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.".
