The Lady Cardinals
used a stirring come-from-
behind victory over Echo
on Tuesday, October 16, to
give themselves a shot at
staying in the district vol
leyball chase. After wrap
ping up the five game match,
the Lady Cards were then
forced to await the outcome
o f Friday’s Arlington-Echo
match-up. An Echo win put
lone. Echo and Arlington
into a tie for third place,

for homecoming week. “ 1
liked the crowd involve
ment,” said Coach Brandi
Heideman. “ It helped the
girls pick up their inten
sity.” She also noted that
Echo lost for a brief time
a player who had not only
been giving the Lady Cards
fits with her spikes but also
with her blocks. lone used
her absence to change the
direction o f the match in
their favor.

spikes, five kills and three
blocks. Emily R ietm ann

day o f volleyball competi
tion, finishing pool play with
two wins and two losses and
advancing to the Champion
ship bracket.
The C ardinals led
their first opponent. South
W asco C ounty, for most
o f the game before falling
19-21. “ We were ahead for
quite a while but in the end,
we got com placent,” said
C oach H eidem an. South
Wasco’s big hitter also woke
up late in the game. “The
girls played really w ell,”
said Heideman. Kylee Svet
ich led the team with four
points and Tori Heagy added
three.
E m ily R ie tm a n n
started the C ards o ff on
the right foot in the second
game, serving eight points in
a row to put lone up 9-1 over
Willamette Valley Christian.
The Lady Cardinals held
o f a rally to win the game

in a best two of three match.
The Lady Knights downed
the Lady Cards 25-13, 25-
16. “O ur serves hurt us
but we really didn’t get a
chance to serve much. We
had a hard time returning
their serves,” said Coach
Heideman. In the last game
o f the day, Beth Morter had
four kills for a good effort
at the net. “They played
hard in the second game
but they were so tired from
the Homecoming Dance the
nigh before and six games

REALTOR
EARNEST MONEY PROTECTION?
When you make an offer
to purchase a home, standard
practice is to* accom pany
the offer with “earnest mon
ey". The fate of your earnest
money is governed by the
language of your offer.
If the bid is not accepted,
your check should be returned
immediately. The situation
can get a little sticky if the
transaction falls through - like
you change your mind or you
can’t get financing.
The language of your bid
should contain two protec
tions. The offer should be
made contingent on the acqui-
sition of mortgage financing
and the seller should agree to
accept the earnest money as
“liquidated damages” if you
default. If you can’t obtain a
mortgage, you still get your
earnest money back as long
as you have responded hon
estly to appropriate questions
about financing. The “liquida
tion of damages" clause will
limit any compensation for
the seller to the amount of the
earnest money if you back out
of the transaction or otherwise
default.
The Heppner High
School National Honor So
ciety will be sponsoring a
coat and dollar drive for
members o f the community
November 1-17. They are
asking for donations of used
coats and/or flat donations.
