DARE seeks lightstick program donations
Mustangs down Pilot Rock 51-Zip
The Morrow County DARE
program is soliciting donations
for the lightstick program, accor
ding to Morrow County Sheriff
Roy Drago.
The purpose of the program is
to make Halloween safer for
Morrow County children.
A lightstick is a four-inch long,
sealed unit that contains a non
toxic, non flammable mixture.
When activated, the lightstick
produces a bright light that can be
seen from a distance of up to 100
yards and lasts for up to six
hours. The lightstick may be
placed on a string to be worn
around the child’s neck, or at
tached to the child’s costume.
The money donated goes to
purchase enough lightsticks for
each school age child from
preschool to sixth grade in Mor
row County. Selected area
businesses are also supplied with
a small number for those children
who have not yet entered school
or who did not receive a lightstick
through the school.
This project costs the Morrow
County DARE program between
$700 to $1,000 to cover the en
tire county with the exception of
the Boardman area. Boardman is
covered by the Boardman Police
Department’s own lightstick
program.
Anyone interested in helping
make Halloween safer for the
children of Morrow County send
your donations to Morrow Coun
ty DARE % Lightstick Program,
Box 159, Heppner, 97836.

Mustangs ball carrier is wrapped up by Rocket defenders
The Heppner Mustangs rolled
into Pilot Rock Friday night, Oct.
16 and ruined the Rockets
homecoming celebration crushing
them 51-0.
The victory kept the Mustangs
perfect in the league and the
season, 3-0, 6-0. Heppner is tied
with Umatilla and is headed for
a late season contest with the Vik
ings to settle the deadlock.
The Mustangs cruised to their
most lopsided victory of the
season against a young but
spirited Rocket squad.
Heppner got on the board First
when a punt snap sailed out of the
end zone for Pilot Rock for a 2-0
Mustang lead. Heppner scored
again 42 seconds later with senior
fullback T.R. Riehl busting up
the middle with an 18 yard run
after a short Rocket punt. Len
Brittner added the pat for a 9-0
lead with only four minutes gone.
The Mustangs put together a
nine play 59 yard drive the next
time they got the ball. Senior half
back Scott Coe ran the ball three
times on the drive accounting for
41 yards, the last 15 yards into
the end zone. Brittner added the
pat for a 16-0 first quarter lead.
Junior Rick Koffler used a
quarterback sneak to cap a seven
play, 65 yard drive on the
Mustangs next possession. Riehl
had a 28 yard run to chew up
some of the yards.
Jim Tellechea scored on a two
yard drive to end the scoring for
the half. Tellechea had in
tercepted a Rocket pass and
returned it 33 yards to set up the
score.
As in recent games the defen
sive side of the ball continued to
stiffle the opposition and give the
offense great field position and
plenty of opportunity to score.
Heppner intercepted five Rocket
passes. Coe, Tellechea. Kevin
Payne and Britter each picked off
one pass from the Rockets and
Brittner returned his for a
touchdown. Junior cornerback
Chad Doherty stole the other pass
late in the game to snuff the only
real threat Pilot Rock could
muster.

ny, Ryan Pence and Shane
Munkers dominiated the Rocket
offensive line while the
linebackers as secondary did their
part with the interceptions and
three fumble recoveries.
Sophomore Chris Dickenson
engineered the offense in the se
cond half and scored on the first
possession with an 11 yard option
keeper. Brittner drilled the pat for
a 36-0 lead. Payne rambled 30
yards with a touchdown with four
minutes 22 seconds left in the
quarter. Brittner picked up a bad
pat snap and rolled right, finding
senior Jeremy Maddem in the end
zone for a two point pat.
Coach Greg Grant moved Ryan
Pence, a guard in his former
career, to f u l l h a r k tr.
the final touchdown with tour
i minutes, 31 seconds .remaining.
The pat was good making the
final score 51-0.
The Mustangs return home this
Friday to entertain the Wahtonka
Eagles. The Eagles were a sur
prise 8-7 winner over the
Weston-McEwen TigerScots last
week.
The new light system and new
scoreboard have been installed
and tested and will be ready for
the game. There will be a short
ceremony just prior to kickoff to
dedicate the lights. Game time is
7:30 p.m.

Flower show judge speaks
Connie Tellefson, a master
judge and a teacher in the Na
tional Council of State Garden
Clubs Flower Show Schools,
taught a demonstration lesson on
conventional American floral
design to the Heppner Garden
Club and their guests at their Oc
tober meeting at the St. Patrick’s
Senior Center.
Tellefson defined a flower ar
rangement as “ plant material
organized in a container or on a
base or with other components.”
Focusing on beginning arrangers,
she stated “ You must first know
and learn to apply the principles
of design: balance, contrast,
dominance, proportion, rhythm
and scale.”
She advised arrangers to find
effective methods of preparing
cut plant materials, “ hardening”
them to remain fresh longer.
Some plants require special treat
ment. Examples include placing
ends of snapdragon stems in
vinegar and holding delphinium
stem ends over open flame.
She discouraged purchasing ex
pensive containers and suggested
finding them about the kitchen, at
yard sales, but better yet, mak
ing your own by painting food
and sundry household containers
such as jars, bottles, and so on.
The success of any design, she
told the group, depends on
mechanics, on holders to keep
stems securely in place. She
recommended and demonstrated
using weighted needlepoint
holders and showed both Oasis
and Sahara (floral foam) used by
florists.
Beginners do well by learning
to make the basic American
designs: mass, line, and mass-line
as well as horizontal, vertical, cir
cle, triangle and crescent ar
rangements. She recommended
the National Council's “ Hand
book for Flower Shows” as a
resource.
After making several designs
from both fresh and dried
materials, Tellefson critiqued the
dried arrangements made by
garden club members.
This program followed a buf
fet dinner served with linen,
china, candles and floral center-
pieces in honor of the arranger
and her husband, Kem. Hostesses
were Eleanor Gonty and Jane
Rawlins.

Appropriate foot care and pro
per trimming of the toenails are
an issue with many citizens. As
people get older their circulation
and ability to heal decreases,
plus, with many people, hand
strength diminishes and even
reaching your feet is sometimes
impossible.
Pioneer M emorial Home
Health has been providing foot
care as an ancillary service to
meet the needs of the communi
ty. This is usually performed at
the Home Health office on an as-
needed basis, but due to the
Home Health department’s heavy
patient load, it is becoming in
creasingly difficult to accom
modate clients’ footcare needs.
To ensure the continuation of this
necessary service, the Home
Health department of Pioneer
Memorial Hospital will offer foot
clinics on the afternoon of the
first Wednesday of each month at
St. Patrick’s Senior Center.
The charge is $8 a client. At
this time Home Health is receiv
ing United Way funds to under
write some of the expense. For
an appointment call the Home
Health department at Pioneer

on the Truth
about this Election
On November 3, we
have a choice. We can elect
to the State Senate an
extremist who offers no
positive ideas or solutions.
Or we can vote for teamwork
and positive action for rural
Oregon’s future.
"Rural Oregon
has always been
my home."
Rural Oregon is my home.
I was born and raised in the Hood River Valley, where my
wife, Gloria, and I have farmed for two decades. Like you,
we’ve worked hard to build a good life. We care about the
future of rural Oregon because it’s our future. I have fought
in Salem for our fair share of state dollars for economic
development, school funding, and rural health care. I am
fighting for respect for our region and our vital interests.
My opponent’s sole strategy is to attack me by distorting
the facts. My response is to keep pointing out the truth
about my positive record - and to set the record straight
about his mudslinging. It’s up to you to decide who you can
really trust.
