CBC Season preview puts Mustangs Cardinals down Wallowa 32-30
as league champions
The Heppner Mustang football
squad starts their CBC schedule
of games this Friday, Sept. 25
when they play host to the Sher­
man County Huskies at the Mor­
row County Fairgrounds. Game
time is 7:30 p.m.
Following is a look at each
team in the Columbia Basin Con­
ference, their preseason successes
and a guess at where they may
finish in the seven team league.
Sherman County Huskies-
The Huskies are back in the CBC
after several years in the eight-
man Big Sky Conference. The
Huskies, from Moro, played for
the state title at that level losing
to the St. Paul Buckeroos.
Sherman County lost heavily to
graduation and their returning
quarterback, Brandon Jones,
transferred to Dufur this fall.
Sherman County lost to the
Goldendale JV’s in their opener
and Wahtonka defeated them
16-6 last week.
Although the Huskies have a
proud football tradition, they will
find the going rough in their first
year back. They should finish
fifth this year.
Weston McEwen TigerScots-
The TigerScots were hit hard
with graduation and return only
three starters for head coach Dan
Cogswell. Weston McEwen
squeaked by Union 10-8 in their
opener and were run over by the
Riverside Pirates last week 34-0.
Look for the TigerScots to be
in the middle of the pack this year
at fourth place.
Stanfield Tigers-The Tigers
are coming off a 3-5 record from
last year and early season results
aren’t encouraging.
Stanfield was shutout by Joseph
14-0 to start the season and lost
to Elgin 24-6 last week. Both
Joseph and Elgin are lower divi­
sion Wapiti League teams.
New coach Jay Sweifelhofer
appears to be in for a long season
with his team. Look for the
Tigers to finish sixth.
Wahtonka Eagles-from the
Dalles struggled through a
winless season last year with a
very young team. Wahtonka. one
of the largest schools in the CBC
looks to be ready to reverse that
trend.
Six starters return and the
Eagles have already topped last
year by besting Sherman County
in a nonleague game last week.
Watch for a resurgence in foot­
ball at this school. Wahtonka will
be in third place when the year
is out.
Pilot Rock Rockets-The
Rockets return to the league after
playing a noncounting eight-man
schedule last year. They have
another new coach. Perry
Sheehan, to lead them this year.
It will take several years to
return Pilot Rock to prominence
in the league. The Rockets lost to
Union 29-6 and Imbler 26-6.
You’ll likely find the Rockets
in the cellar in seventh place.
Umatilla Vikings-are back
w ith a talented group of players
from last years league champs
that barely lost to Dayton in the
quarterfinals.
Enterprise, a Wapiti League
team that Umatilla beat in the
playoffs last year, opened the
season with a 40-12 shellacking
of the Vikings. Umatilla got on
a winning track with a victory
over Imbler 34-6 last week.
Look for Umatilla to challenge
for the league title again but fall
just short at second place.
Heppner
Mustangs-The
Mustangs opened the season with
a narrow 3-0 win over the Grant
Union Prospectors. They con­
tinued to improve with a convin­
cing 21-8 victory over the 3A
Riverside Pirates.
After a Bye last week Heppner
is ready to test the CBC waters
with their opener at home against
the Sherman County Huskies.
It will come down to a late
season matchup with the Umatilla
Vikings but look for the
Mustangs to win that dog fight
and the league championship.

keep this year’s perfect record
intact.

scored in the first half with the

chipping and pitching, fairway

the lessons they had a skills test

tients there.

-:-Holly Rebekah Lodge met
on Thursday evening for the
regular meeting and birthday
potluck. Visitors at this time and
welcomed were DDP of McNary
District Donna Blades and Ruth
Olson, financial secretary of
Sunbeam Rebekah Lodge from
Hermiston. A potluck dinner
preceded the meeting with Kathy
Clark and Geri Martin as hosts.
Following the dinner the DDP
gave the unwritten work and told
the group plans for the coming
year district meeting in Her­
miston when the state president
Mina Fish will visit. She will visit
Holly Lodge the evening of Oct.
15 at which time the lodge will

Upcoming events for the Hol­
ly Lodge were announced with
the card party for Oct. planned
for Oct. 3 at 7:30 p.m. at the hall.
Admission will be $2 with
refreshments and prizes. The
Lodge will meet Oct. 1 and 15.
A spaghetti supper and card par- t
ty is planned for October 24 at the
hall. Admission will be $3.50 for
the spaghetti supper and $2 for
cards or $5 for both.
Several finance plans were
discussed. It seems as if the
lodges are busy making money to
support the hall, as it is used for
a community hall and it is the
wish of the Lodges to be able to
continue as such, so expenses
must be met. The Lodges ap­
preciate the assistance given them
by the people attending these
functions. The November card
party will be held Nov. 7 at the
hall. Committees were appointed
for the President’s visit and the
card parties.
