Gibney Tells Of
Play Contest Is
Asian Situation

The freshmen won first place with
presentation of their play in the
high school play contest held Tues­
day night and the seniors sold the
most tickets to the event.
The junior class won second in
the ticket sale contest, the sopho­
mores third and the freshmen
fourth.
The classes will receive

Pep cup, the same as in the play
contest.
In the play contest, the frosh re­
ceived 153 votes, the seniors 144, the
sophomores 71 and the juniors 59.
The plays, attended by approxi­
mately GOO persons, were presented
as follows: "Elmer and the Love-
bug," freshmen, first; “ I t ’s Cold In
Them Thar Hills,” seniors, second;
“Close Courting," sophomores, third,
and "Dear Lady Be Brave,” juniors,
fourth. All of the plays were com­

Margaret Engstrom and Richard
Wilson, seniors; Charles Steffens,
Miss Lois White and K. E. Keveren,
the sophomores, and Frank Mazzio,

Frank Gibney, war correspondent
who spent two years in Japan and
sometime on the Korean fighting
front, told members of the Mai-
heur K nife and Fork club in On­
tario Saturday night that "The rec­
ord in Asia is not a record of com­
munist successes, but a record of
American vaccilation and failure,
which the communists capitalized
on. Asia has fallen under the com­
munist influence through our de­
fault and not through the success
of the soviets.”
In contrast to the confused action
of the United States and other Unit­
ed Nations members in Korea. Gib-
ney said "W e succeeded in Japan
because of a definite policy and be­
cause we were not afraid to talk
democracy and display American
idealism. We almost failed in Korea
and the rest of Asia because we fa il­
ed to show the people any leader­
ship and we were saved from failure
only by entry into the war."
Gibney told of the great respect
that the Japanese held for General
Dougjas M ac Arthur and the sorrow
they felt when he was recalled by
President Truman. He also discus­
sed the co-operation that the Jap­
anese are now giving to the United
Nations forces fighting in Korea.
"China is a nation of unlimited
population and unlimited resources
that under communist rule could
engulf us,” the speaker said. “ W e
can combine the positive approach
we used in Japan with other count­
ries in Asia and succeed as we have
partially succeeded in Europe.”
’ In observance of past president’s
night. President Tony Yturri pre­
sented three of the past presidents,
Judge M. A. Biggs, Noah Richards
and J. L. Herriman. The fourth
past president of the club. Robert
Lytle of Vale, was not present.

Last Payment On 1950
Beets Amounts To
#1,125,000
Local farmers, who received checks
this week for the last payment on
their 1950 crop o f sugar beets from
the Amalgamated Sugar company,
have been facing considerable rainy
weather during the last few days,
but are expected to complete the
harvest without loss.
The additional payment to the
farmers amounted to $1.0166 per
ton, making the total distributed in
the Nyssa-Nampa d i s t r i c t ap-
proximately $1,125,000
With this
payment. District Manager Jed
Lewis of the sugar company said
the growers will have received from
last year’s crop, Including the gov­
ernment payment, approximately
$13 per ton.
Mr. Lewis pointed out that “ the
farmers of this area are well equip­
ped with machinery to handle the
crop. There has not been a lot of
rain, but enough to slow down the
harvest. Under the circumstances,
the harvest is coming along very
well. W ith a few days of dry weath­
er, we could hit our full strike.”
Pheasant Hunters
Face Charges O f
Violating Laws
Six men were fined in Nyssa Just-
Ice court since the opening of the

each on a charge of disguising the
sex of a game bird. Five dollars of
each fine was suspended.

fined $25 on a charge of shooting
from a public road. Ten dollars of
the fine was suspended, so with
court costs the assessment was
$24 50.
Sherman W. Coulter of Prairie
, City, Henry C. Houser of Portland
I and W illiam W. Rosenfeld of Port­
land faced a charge of shooting

The Nyssa Bulldogs nosed out the
Weiser Wolverines 13 to 12 on the
Weiser field last Friday night In a
thrilling conference football game,
which was won in the last few min­
utes of plays
Weiser scored the first touch­
down after making a sustained drive
from the kick-off. The Wolverines
drove to the Nyssa two-yard line,
where Ron Campbell drove over for
the score. The conversion try failed
when Campbell was dropped short
of the goal line.
After a good drive to the Weiser
12. the Bulldogs took to the air, but
failed to connect for a first down.
Dan Lovejoy kicked a 60-yard punt
to the Weiser 10, where It went out
of bounds. Again the Nyssa line held
and Weiser kicked to the Nyssa 40.
Following some preliminary skirm­
ishes, Lovejoy passed and Tucker
snatched the ball on the 10-yard
mark and dashed over for Nyssa’s
first score. Lovejoy’s kick split the
uprights and the Bulldogs led 7
to 6
The Nyssa offense bogged down
after taking the kick-off at the
opening of the second half and
Lovejoy booted to the Weiser 20.
With a series of off-tackle and
end plays, the Wolverines fought
their way to the Nyssa four, where
Campbell hit pay dirt. The attempt
for the extra point failed.
One of Weiser’s ends, Cooke, boot­
ed the ball to the Nyssa 10, where
Jim Skeen took the ball, reversed
his field and started a 90-yard sprint
for a touchdown The counter was
not allowed because of alleged clip­
ping on the part o f a Nyssa player.
Nyssa soon had another chance

One man. Bradley P. Tillotson of
Ontario, was killed and at least four
other persons were Injured by shot­
gun pellets last week-end in M al­
heur county’s most tragic pheasant
hunting season In several years.
The 36-year-old Tillotson, Ontario
Insurance man and former advertis­
ing manager of the Argus-Observer,
was apparently killed when his gun
accidentally discharged while he was
separated from his hunting com­
panion, Hugh Kennington, 19, who
was hunting over a small hill from
Tillotson.
A fter hearing a shot,
Kennington went over the hill and
found Tillotson with a shotgun
wound in the abdomen and the stock
of his double-barreled shotgun brok­
en. The hunter died en route to the
Ontario hospital.
District Attorney Charles W. Swan
said the shooting was obviously an
accident, so that no Inquest wlH be
held.
Tillotson, who engaged in news­
paper and printing work in Cali­
fornia and Oregon prior to moving
to Ontario three years ago, was ad­
