Photo by Joyce Hughes Eric Schonbachler (11) attempts to block shot against a TigerScot player The Heppner Mustangs were no match for league-leading Weston-McEwen Friday night, Feb. 10, as the TigerScots jumped to an early lead and never looked back, except once, in their 76-60 win over the Mustangs. The TigerScots built a com fortable lead of 60-38 going in to the fourth quarter. The TigerScot coach began heavy substitution and the Mustangs pulled to within 11 points. That put a scare into the 10-0 CBL leaders, who brought back in the starters to seal the victory over the 0-9 Mustangs. Heppner's shooting percen tage improved to 51 percent for the game, but it wasn't enough to overcome the taller, quicker TigerScots. Trent Hughes lead the Mustangs' scoring attack with 16 points, followed by Chris Dickenson and Chris Sykes with nine apiece. Eric Schon bachler had eight, Dan Burn side and Justin Matteson seven, Brent Wright three and Ben Ewing with one point.

On February 1, Union Pacific Railroad Company and Union Pacific Land Resources Cor poration authorized Railroad Realty Services of St. Louis, Missouri to begin liquidating the property within the former Condon and Heppner Branch Lines in Gilliam and Morrow Counties. The Heppner Branch Line, 45 miles in length, was assembl ed and constructed by the Oregon-Washington Railroad & Navigation Company in the 1880's and was opened for rail service on December 15, 1888. The 45 mile Condon branch rail corridor was originally assembled and constructed by the Columbia River & Central Oregon Railroad Company at the turn of the century and was opened for service on July 1, 1905. Combined, the two rail lines and appurtenant railroad pro perties comprise approximate ly 1,164 acres, of which, ap proximately 942 acres were ac quired from non-governmental land owners and are thus con sidered saleable. Although the property is be ing offered for sale to the general public, Railroad Realty Services indicates that efforts are being made to initially con tact those persons owning pro perty parcels abutting the former rail line.
