The report also states that f harlev sales were held twice last year due to Increased acreage. Increased acres of corn were planted in 1982, and higlier yields resulted; how ever, prices were lower. Al falfa acreage and yields were similar to those of 1981, but prices were higher. Acreage and yields of dry peas were also similar to those reported in 1981, although prices were lower. Drastsically reduced acreage of dry beans was reported, due to substantially lower prices. Potato acreage and yields were down in 1982, as were prices. Livestock sales did not improve much over 1981 for individual pro ducers, but the Simplot feedlot reached full capacity in 1982 and gross cattle sales in Mor row County were up by $12 million as a result.

Jan. 8, the Mus tang basketball team met de feat when they traveled to Pilot Rock to play the Rockets in action that left Heppner vanquished, 67 - 48. Coach Brent Eggers found both good and bad points about the Mustangs' execution in the ball game. "We are not disciplined enough in our half-court exe cution. That, and too many fouls, really cost us the ball game." Three Mustang starters fouled out in the third quarter. "It was close until then. The team was coming on and we were going to try some strate gic maneuvers but we couldn't because Jeff Orr, Mike Currin and Tom Huston all fouled out," the coach explained. Eggers did find something to be happy about with the Cagers performance "I was really happy with the team in one respect. The kids never quit. The bench did an excel lent job, giving 100 percent and cutting the lead to seven points at one point in the game." He added "I was extremely proud of them. That quality to never give up will be important to the team down the line." The Mustangs are looking forward to this weekend when they will play Weston McEwen here Friday and meet Umatilla there Saturday - 7 "i r -ir? z i: : - 2i : r - : r w i 1 s: : 1 i z - - '3 er l r " ' 11 7 " !l3Iv: 2 c 22 2 : ' - . 1 '. ?rY S3T7 i - 21 2 1 V I 2 2 - - "ZD m 2 22 - " r ; - ? c S-?I lh: l ; i 2 2 t Z 2 : ? -e-d :e :3 it 2- z? 22 22 :3 .: :: rjjr ?::h 22 ? 2 22 22 2: 2 22 ; ? : No. Four No. Seven No. Eight No. Six No. Two No. Three No. One No. Five Splits: Alan Basford 7-4-10; Nancy Spivey 4-5-7; Darell Padberg 6-10-7; and Carol Taylor 5-10.
