JV Fillies lose to Helix
By Lisa Willman
Even though the JV Fillies lost to
Helix, 32-54, the game was still a
good one. Defensively the Fillies
game improved and they didn’t
allow Helix to get in for rebounds.
The first half of the game was the
Fillies best in defense. At halftime
Helix had 23 points, but the Fillies
were only behind by five points.
In the second half the Fillies had
problems with defense and allowed
Helix to shoot and score. The Fillies
offense was better, however. They
made 12 out of 18 shots, the best
they’ve done all year. Helix only hit
eight out of 25 from the foul line.
Freshman Jodi Johston led the
team with eight points and five
steals. Gretchen Berretta added four
points. Ruth Norton pulled down
seven rebounds and sophomores
Michelle McCurry and Chrissy
Schultz helped on the boards with
four each. The next Junior Varsity
game will be Jan. 25, 3 p.m. against
Weston-McEwen, there.

“ Irrigation” in north and south
Morrow County was the topic
chosen for this year’s essay contest
sponsored by the Morrow County
Historical Society, for junior high
students. Three prizes will be
presented to the winners in May.
The essay is judged by teachers
outside the county and must be bet
ween 500 to 1,000 words. It is hoped
that there will be interest in this pro
ject and the project will help the
students become aware of the ad
vancement of issues important to our
area, and the progress made from the
homestead days until now.
The meeting, held at the Jim and
Barbara Bloods worth home, started
wiht a potluck dinner. A report was
heard from Jean Nelson on the Wells
Spring project. Flyers are available
on the Oregon Trail and Wells
Springs and have been distributed at
other points o f interest. The
treasurers report was given and the
group was reminded of the memorial
fund in the society. Cards of
acknowledgem ent are sent to
members of the bereaved families.
The Gazebo has not yet been mov
ed in Boardman and the group ex
pressed their disappointment that this
project has not been carried out. The
stone with the Indian markings in Ir-
rigon has been moved to a better
location and a sign will soon be com
pleted for that project. Work has
been done on the Groshens fountain
in Heppner and work will be com
pleted this spring.
An election of officers was held
with president, Delpha Jones; vice
president, Harold Peck; and
secretary-treasurer Ruth McCabe.
During the business meeting the
guests watched a film on Celilo
Falls.

Following; the meeting Irvio
Rauch was thanked for all the
assistance given the society while he
was in office as county commis
sioner. Those present were Ruth
McCabe, Harold and Edna Peck,
Jean Nelson, Darrell and Sue Vin
son, Cecil and Delpha Jones guests

The last half of the game Heppner
dominated all the way. Their shots
sank through the hoop and a full
court press helped them to get tur
novers to score. The final score was
Mustangs, 58, Monument 31.
Everyone who played scored at
least two points. High scorers were
all in double figures with Jerid
Wickland scoring 12 points for the
freshmen and Sam Sumner and
Austin Coiner each adding 11.
Coach Bob Ployhar stated with a
smile, “ we played Pilot Rock last
night and won and to win two games
in a row is great. Our rebounding
was good. We have had problems up
until tonight so our practicing has
finally paid off.”

fense around but Monument’s
defense was tough. With three
minutes left both teams were in foul
trouble but Monument sank fouls
shots and Heppner didn’t. At

halftime Heppner was behind by 18
points.
In the third quarter Heppner
played man to man and ran a full
court press. The Fillies defense
began to look better as Monument
had to work the ball around quite a
bit to get an open shot. At one point
in the game the ball went back and
forth so much that neither team was
able to shoot. Girls on both teams
really had fast hands which caused
both teams to get into foul trouble.
The Fillies were behind by 25
points going into the final quarter.
The Fillies ran a full court press try
ing to make a comeback but were
unable to make their shots count.
They lost to Monument 20-51.
Chrissy Schultz was high scorer
for the JV Fillies with six points.
Sara Greenup and Jodi Johnston each
chipped in five points.
