By Molly R hea
Heppner's JV girls revenged
their only loss of the season by
beating the Riverside JVs 41-30,
Saturday, January 3. Wearing
"S.H." and "#10" on their shoes
or socks in honor of classmate
Shad Hisler, who was killed in an
auto accident, the young
Mustangs played with intensity
and teamwork to overcome the
varsity-strewn Pirates.
In this their first game after a
three week sabbatical, the
Mustangs came out a little stiff
and were only able to post six
points in the first period.
Managing to score eight in the
second quarter put the Mustangs
at a one point advantage going
into the half time break.
The Heppner girls headed into
the second half with fresh resolve
and the determination to prove
their mental toughness. They

The lone Lady Cardinals trav
eled to Pilot Rock for the two
teams’ second meeting in pre-sea
son basketball action on Saturday,
Jan. 2. lone lost in overtime, 54-
48.
The Rockets got the opening
tip and their Amber Evans scored
two, but lone’s Nikki McElligott
answered with two on a pass from
Brenda Burright. M cElligott
scored 16 of lone’s 19 opening
quarter points. Pilot Rock’s Jenny
Simmons and Evans played hard
on the inside and started to show
lone’s six foot tall posts there was
more than height needed under
neath.
The Cards defense slowed as
the second quarter ticked away.
The poor outside shooting of the
Cards was no match for the Rock
ets inside lay-ups. The score af
ter one half was lone 25-21, but
the second half proved the Cards
had been on a break for too long.
The Rockets’ Evans started an
Happy New Year 1998. This
new year gave the majority of our
rural area a reminder that people,
family, friends, neighbors, and
being there for each other is what
life is truly all about. We are re
minded to celebrate what it means
to have the love and care our
small community offers, to offer
these more frequently and to
move forward, knowing there are
angels in our midst. Each day is
indeed a gift, that’s why it’s called
the present.
As we move into 1998, the
Chamber of Commerce kicks off
the year with its annual luncheon
on Tuesday, Jan. 13 at noon at All
Saints’ Episcopal Church Parish.
A full agenda includes a celebra
tion of Heppner, “Flute Q,” instal
lation of board of directors, Hat’s
Off Award, Lifetime Achieve
ment Award, additional recogni
tion and the Luxury Vacation
Chamber drawing. Lunch will be
prepared by Kate's for $6 per per
son. Spouses and persons inter
ested in knowing more about the
Chamber of Commerce are wel
come to attend. Please RSVP to
the Chamber by Friday, Jan. 9, at
676-5536.
Town and Country has
changed a bit this year, with the
luncheon on Tuesday, the banquet
on Thursday and the elimination
of meetings. Some of the organi
zations involved had indicated
attendance was down and maybe
a change was needed. The com
mittee will evaluate that decision
with input from all concerned for
1999.
“The Slob Sisters" will enter
tain Town and Country Banquet
attendees on Thursday, Jan. 15.
The social hour at the Elks Club
begins at 6 p.m., with a prune rib
dinner at 7 p.m. “Absolutely No
body,” a vocal quartet featuring
Joe Lindsay. Jeremy Miller, Tom
Phelan and Rick Pullen will per
form during the dinner. The an
nual Man, Woman, Educator and
Business of the Year awards will
be presented and the Morrow

Court will be crowned. Tickets,
$ 15 each, are available at Murray
