NOW IN STOCK RED ROCK BARK A PEAT MOSS P E T T Y ju n r 424 Linden Way, Heppner On Sunday, May 5, the Hope- Valby Lutheran Parish wiU celebrate Rural Life Sunday, a celebration that for many centuries has been associated with planting crops and praying for favorable weather and a bountiful harvest. This observance grew out of calamity that occurred around 450 A.D. It was the destruction of Vienne, France, by earthquakes, fire, rioting and looting. Bishop Mamertus called the people to observe a solemn fast and public supplication as atonement for their sin. The observance lasted three days and included a solemn procession with litany around the bounds of the city. Over the centuries the observance has developed a three-fold emphasis- petitions for forgiveness of sins, for protection from calamities and for bountiful crops. Today the emphasis calls for prayers that thank God for the many blessings to us, but also calls atten tion to protection and careful use of the environment, for good weather and abundant harvests, for farmers and their families, for those whose land and way of life are threatened, for the underemployed and the unemployed, for the hungry of the world. An old observance of the church which arose out of calamitous situation has similarities to condi tions in today’s world. Services are 9 a.m. at Valby Lutheran Church and 11 a.m. at Hope. Sunday School begins at 8:15 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. respectively.

Hood Community College (formerly State B meet.) The State 1A Meet gives the smallest category of schools a chance to compete strictly against each other since the OSAA does not break track down to 1A and 2A divi sions. Thirty-eight schools par ticipated on a cloudy chilly day. April Taylor was the only girl to place, running to sixth place in the 800 meters with a time of 2:44.8. That time was a personal record for her. Crystal Minster recorded per sonal bests in the triple jump and the 200 but didn't make the finals. For the boys, David Wagenblast recorded a personal record of 2:11.7 in the 800 meters where he finished fourth. Gabe Garcia, who ran seven races, counting preliminaries and finals, finished fourth in the 400 (54.6) and fifth in the 200 (24.2). Mac Lovett ran a total of eight races for the day. finishing sixth in the 200 with a 24.7 and in the 100 with an 11.9. Ryan Halvorsen leaped 38’4 !/4” in the triple jump, good for sixth place and a new personal record for him. “ All the kids are making pretty good progress,” says coach Del LaRue. I was especially pleased with April and David’s 800 meter races,” he added. He also noted that the sprinters ran well but with so many preliminaries, they were worn down In girls’ action, Nancy Morter lost to one of the district’s stronger players, Mel Tarter, 3-6, 6-2, 4-6. According to coach Cathy McCabe, Nancy showed improvement from her last match with Tarter and played aggressively to return her lob shots. In other singles’ play, Erika Bergstrom was defeated by Kristy Hoch, 2-8, and Heidi Orem fell to Missy Stuck, 2-8. In doubles’ action, the Cards tallied their only wins of the day. Kari Morgan and Nancy Morter teamed up to defeat Jen Adams and Shawna Fry, 6-2, 6-4, Erika Bergstrom and Heidi Orem downed Shannon Gibson and Sara Nelson, 8-6. The lone tennis teams played just one match this past week, with their Tuesday outing called because of rain. On Saturday, the Cards hosted a tough, more experienced Umatilla squad and Umatilla showed what ex perience can do, losing just two mat ches for the entire day. The lone boys were shut out. los ing both singles’ matches and one doubles. Brent Sheirbon fell to Javier Ingels, 2-6, 2-6, Mike Green lost to James Purvis, 0-8 and doubles’ team, Aaron Heideman and Tony Bjerke were defeated by Nick Saliby and Jaime Ramirez, 4-6, 2-6.
