Oregon 97818 481-9474 481 7351 Do Not Crush These Medicines Pharmacists get questions about whether or not certain tablets or liquid-filled capsules can be crushed before they are taken. This question usually comes from those who have difficulty swallowing large tablets and capsules or par ents who have trouble getting smal 1 children to take prescribed medi cines. Often a crushed tablet added to applesauce or other soft foods can be swallowed more easily. Bad tasting medicines can be disguised. However, do not crush: Sublingual or buccal tablets: These dosage forms are intended to be placed under the tongue or between the cheek and gums. Crushing may impair stability. Extended-release forms: Delayed action or extended-release formu lations should not be crushed or cut in half. Crushing may interfere with the ability of the medicine to deliver its ingredients over a speci fied period of time such as 24 hours. Enteric-coated forms: The coat ing allows the medicine to pass through the stomach and be re leased in the small intestine. This is useful for drugs such as erythro mycin that are destroyed by the acid in the stomach, or medicines such as aspirin that irritate the lin ing of the stomach. Liquids in capsules: These medi cines sometimes can irritate the mouth if crushed. - x Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. The Heppner Mustangs used some of both as they beat the Pilot Rock Rockets in a hard fought and physical 16-15 victory, Friday night, Oct. 21. at Pilot Rock. The Mustangs capitalized on a Rocket fumble inside one minute to play to score the go ahead touchdown. Quarter back Brian Koffler scored on a quarterback sneak to make the score 15-14 in favor of the Rockets. Koffler then hit wide receiver Bill Schlaich in the back of the end zone for the winning two point conversion. The Rockets started out with a bang at their homecoming game. They took the opening kick off 65 yards for a score in the first two and one-half minutes of action. Senior run ning back Chris Humphreys broke loose on a 48 vard run to get the Rockets on the score board. Glen Stillman added the pat for a Pilot Rock lead. The half ended 7-0 as the Rockets' line men Branden Dames and Kevin Stanley con trolled the Mustangs' running attact and Jon Hanna, Chris Sykes, Jim Schlaich and Shaun Hisler did the same, stuffing the Rockets running game. The Mustangs took the lead in this seesaw battle on their first possession of the second half. The big play of the drive was a screen pass from Koffler to fullback Chad Skroch. Skroch took the ball behind a huge wall of Mustang blockers and used some niftv running to penetrate deep into Rocket ter ritory. After good gains from running backs Hisler and Chris Dickenson, Dickenson blasted Lady Cards lose to Pilot Rock Lexington Baptist Church will have its annual Harvest Dinner Sunday, October 30 at 5:30 p.m. The theme for the evening is missions.

Heppner started their drive with less than five minutes to go in the game. Koffler and Schlaich teamed up tor a long third down completion and a critical four and six completion to keep the drive alive. The drive stalled at the one yard in side one minute to play as the Rocket defense stiffened. All seemed lost as all the Rockets needed to do was run a couple of plays to win the game.
