The St. Helens team stron™ men are Jensen, Baker and Jones in the backfield and Wir s on the line. Last week’s game gave St. Helens a win of 50 to 0 over Hill Military Academy of Portland. Much of that game's scoring came through passing and expert blocking, it 1s reported. The game here Friday is timed for 2 o’clock. AiU elope Season Open Sept. 29 Competition between hundreds of nimrods and some 25,000 antelope in Oregon will begin on September 29 and continue through October 6th. Special antelope tags authorized by the Oregon State Game commis sion are still available and can be procured by application to the Portland office of the commission. During the 1939 antelope season hunters who indulged in this sport were 82% successful, even though the antelope is the fleetest of all animals, some experts insisting that they can even outrun the swi test of race horses. The antelope territory embraces the greater parts of Lake, Malheur and Harney counties and under the law sportsmen can bag one of either sex. Checking stations will be established at strategic points and all hunters must check in and check out. It is important to know that hunters must check out even though they are unsuccessful tn bagging an antelope. Your Money Goes A Long Way Here!

Phone 761 Quantity Orders Gladly Delivered SAM and BOB Grocery & Market In some years, some cars take a big jump ahead. The Ford does that for 1941. It has jumped ahead in size. It’s the biggest Ford we’ve ever built, inside and out. It’s wider. It has a longer wheelbase. Its seating room is wider by as much as 7 inches. It has new wide doors and semi-concealed running boards. You’ll notice also a new beauty, achieved by a skilful blending of mass with longer flowing lines. Larger wind- shield and windows give bet ter vision all around. One of its biggest advan tages is the new soft ride. New, slowcr-action springs give a slow, gentle, gliding movement. A newly designed stabilizer helps absorb road shocks, and maintains bal ance on sharp curves and in cross winds. More rapid acceleration to match its familiar speed and power makes this new Ford an even livelier car to drive. These are only a few of this new car’s outstanding features. It represents all the rich experience gained in building more than 28 mil lion motor cars. Any Ford dealer can give you many good reasons for making this your 1941 car.
