Locals Take Game
From Irrigon
J. G. Barratt motored to Portland
Monday morning, accompanied by
Mrs. W. V. Crawford and R. A.
Thompson. Mrs. Crawford went to
the city to join her husband and to
assist in locating a residence where
the family will live while Mr. Crawford, recently transferred from San
Francsico, is employed with a casualty company there. Their daughters, Nan and Jo Ann, remained here
with relatives until living quarters
are established in the city.
Four copies of the booklet "Are
Young Drivers Good Drivers?" issued last year by Secretary of State
Earl Snell were mailed recently to
the Arkansas Automobile club for
use in its safety reference library.
Two copies of the. Teacher's Manual,
similarly prepared, were also enclosed. The Arkansas organization
is about to introduce a course of
study in automobile driving in the
state's high schools.

Team
Possessing an enviable record of
ten straight wins and one defeat, the
latter number was increased last
Saturday as Hpner edged out a
24 to 23 victory over the championship-labelled
Irrigon squad.
This game gave Heppner its second
win in two nights, a decided change
of basketball menu for local fans.
Irrigon put up a better battle against
the Mustangs than did Fossil the
night before, but they were still unable to match the speedy play of
Heppner's surprising squad.
Van Marter didn't have quite the
eye for hitting the basket that he
did the night before; none of Coach
Knox's hoopsters did, for that matter, but the Mustang center still
managed to fatten his game average
with 14 points.
Heppner's victory came close not
to being such, as their 24 to 21 lead
with two minutes to go diminished
rapidly when Houghton, Irrigon forward, sank a basket to just miss surpassing his host's score.
