*» *>•*! Il EASTERN OREGON OUTDOORS Mustang JYs defeated, 14-12 The Heppner Mustangs JV’s were defeated, 14-12, by the visiting Umatilla Viking JV’s Monday, September 24 at the Morrow Coun ty Fairgrounds. Umatilla opened the scoring the first quarter with a 25-yard touchdown pass. The pat try was ¿in complete and Umatilla led, 6-0. The Heppner JV’s waited until just before the half to tie things up on a 46-yard Rick Koffler to Tony Burt touchdown pass. Burt did a little bit too much celebrating after the touchdown by spiking the ball and the Mustangs were unable to convert the pat from 17 yards out. The half ended, 6-6. The Umatilla JV’s jumped back on top in the third quarter on a five-yard touchdown pass. After a successful pat pass play, they led 14-6. The Mustangs scored with five minutes left in the game. Travis Greenup took a handoff, went over right tackle, cut back across the secondary and scooted into the end zone to finish a 22-yard touchdown run. The Mustangs ran an off-tackle play, trying to get into the end zone on the pat. It was no good and the final score was 14-12 for Umatilla. The loss evened the JV’s record at 1-1 for the season. The Mustangs will get a chance to avenge the loss as they travel to Umatilla for their next game at 5 p.m. on October 8. Garden Club time changes The Heppner Garden Club meeting Monday, October 1, will be at Theta Lowe’s home at 6 p.m. Carol Bennett will demonstrate the best way to barbecue garden vegetables, followed by a special social supper as arranged by Ida Farra and Theta, hostesses.

SEED WHEAT Quality & Purity at its Finest! 1990 Oregon State Fair OSU Seed Foundation Project Award Winner Registered & Certified M ALCOLM & S T E P H E N S W h eat & STE PTO E Barley Anderson Seed Eric and M am ie 422 - The harsh winter of 1988-89 follow ed by last winter’s mild conditions pro ved to have varying effects on eastern Oregon’s mule deer herds, which has led wildlife biologists to predict mixed success potentials ranging from poor in some areas to relatively good in others for the 1990 general buck deer rifle season, beginning Saturday, September 29. In central Oregon, deer populations in the Ochoco, Grizzly and Maury units are still suffering from excessive losses of two winters ago coupled with continued poor herd recruitment, ac cording to information from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Last year, buck-hunting success and harvest rates in these areas hit their lowest level in years; sadly, biologists expect little change for this season. Buck hunter Chad Pugh of Madras Gun and Tackle believes last year’s mild winter did as almost much harm as good to deer populations in his area. “ I don’t think we have quite as many young deer as we normally have,” Pugh said. “ We had a real dry summer and there was no feed for the coyotes; I think they started eating deer rather than jackrabbits.” On the other hand, ODFW claims deer survival was up last winter in the Paulina, Upper Deschutes and Metolius units, which should pro vide fair to good buck hunting. In the Metolius unit specifically, the department claims good numbers of mature bucks are available, especially near areas of heavy cover. Many units of the south central region again suffered heavy fawn losses, due to late winter storms and heavy coyote predation. Poor recruitment of yearling bucks and limited numbers of mature, carry-over bucks could result in low hunter success here this year. On a brighter note, areas spared from the detrimental conditions include the Keno, sprague and Fort Rocks units, where good winter survival, good fawn production and fair numbers of all age classes of bucks should provide the best hun ting opportunity. In the northeast region, deer populations remain an average of 30 per cent below management objectives, but improved fawn survival this year should increase hunter opportunity for year-and-a-half-old bucks. Deer numbers in the Walla Walla, Mt. Emily and Ukiah units are said to be up 10 percent this year. Although carryover of mature bucks has im proved here somewhat, biologists still expect 75 percent of this year’s buck harvest to be comprised of young animals. Hunting opportunities are expected to be “ excellent” on the private lands in and around the foothills of Umatilla County due to increasing herd populations, though permission to hunt must first be obtained from landowners. Biologists are predicting 20- to 25-percent success rates (considered fair) for mostly younger bucks in Heppner, Fossil and Columbia Basin units, though larger bucks are available around timbered, high-elevation thickets and within roadless areas. Also, “ fair to good hunting” is expected in the northeast portion of the region, with all of the Wenaha unit open to general buck season this year, as is the Starkey unit (except the Starkey Experimental Forest). Limited-entry areas include East Mt. Emily and Catherine Creek units, and the JJells Canyon Wilderness and Snake River Corridor The tough winter of 1988-89 and poor fawn production during the spring of 1989 has deer numbers down in the Keating, Pine Creek, Lookout Mountain and Sumpter units. Of the four, only the Sumpter unit remains open to hunters with general-season tags. Similar conditions also show fewer bucks available for Grant Coun ty, Murderer’s Creek and Northside units remain limited entry, while general-season units include Desolation and Beulah. Hunters should consult the 1990 Oregon Fall Synopsis for season-end dates and regulations. Have a safe, productive hunt. Buck-hunting Prospects Vary for Opener visit to Diana Kincaid's 4th grade class in lone. Ms. Potter told of her childhood in London during the strict Victorian era. She was not allowed to play with other children, was for bidden toys, even a doll, and was raised by nannies and governesses. The 4th graders, who have been studying famous women in history, were thrilled to have Ms. Potter serve them English high tea, com plete with a silver tea service, real china cups and saucers, and English tea biscuits imported from London. The polite tea conversation centered on how Beatrix Potter had come to write her charming Peter Rabbit stories as a get well letter to a young friend. Beatrix Potter was portrayed by Betty Rietmann dressed in 19th cen tury period attire. Mrs. Rietmann also showed slides of the Lake District and Beatrix Potter’s home which she visited. The class is now busy studying Annie Oakley and Grandma Moses.
