Gas Kills Three Men
Digging Well at Boerne
Boerne, Texas—The San Antonio
fire department succeeded in retriev-
ing the bodies of three men drowned
or overcome by gas in a well in
Boerne late today, but not until J. J.
Patterson, who recovered the bodies
narrowly escaped a similar fate.
The three men, Beno Sosas, 20, his
brother, Alex, 19, and Simon Rodri-
guez, 35, with three of Rodriguez’
brothers, Alcaro, Francisco and Re-
fugio, had been hired to clean a water-
well in the rear of the home of Mrs.
Johanna Weiss Kobbe, on main street
in downtown Boerne.
Beno was overcome first, his broth-
er was overcome while attempting to
rescue him, and Simon Rodriguez was
overcome in attempting to bring the
bodies of his two companions to the
surface,
being some lovers of basketball on
the school board, and of course
Prairie Lea has always had an ex-
cellent girls basketball team, and
more often winners than losers has

part of the spring feed crop seed and
also forage. Counties in the drouth
relief classification are receiving hun-
dreds of thousands of dollars as the
government pays the cattleman for
culling his herds of old and diseased
cattle. Responsible institutions in
such sections report improved business
and credit conditions now.
Agriculture is important to us but
we must not overlook other advant-
ages we have. To be brief, Texas has
much more money to offer than in
preceeding years and is in pretty good
condition when judged by the barom-
eter of spendable income. The state’s
oil income for the first half of this
year was $195, 709,000 which is a fig-
ure of significance when we realize
the big oil play now going on through-
out our section alone.
South Texas should not be brack-
eted with the stricken areas of theJ
mid-west when speaking of the
“drouth.”
The name of the late Wynn Seale
will be perpetuated in a concrete man-
ner through action taken by the two
school boards recently. On August 2T
the Robstown school board took ac-
tion to change the name of the gram-
mar school to the Wynn Seale Ele-
mentary school. A few days later
announcement was made that the
beautiful new Junior high school at
Corpus Christi will be named the
Wynn Seale Junior high school.
As has been predicted new con-
struction work is on the increase
throughout South Texas. Various
communities report new homes and
buildings going up and old structures
being remodeled. It is a good sign
of improved economic conditions and,
if the movement continues, will be a
vital influence on business activity
this winter.
Chevrolet Has Largest
Aug. Output in 5 Years
Detroit, Mich.—The largest August
production for five years, totaling 74,-
437 units for all plants, is reported
by the Chevrolet Motor Company.
This total includes domestic, export
and Canadian production.
For the first eight months of 1934
production totals 692,477, and ex-
ceeds by 66,200 the 1933 12 months'
total, which was passed early last
month.
Retail sales reported by dealers
took a decided upward turn in the
last 10 days of August, promising con-
tinued demand in September. The
reported deliveries in the United
States exceeded the domestic produc-
tion.
Frank Groenlich of Berlin paid a
fine of $100 for calling a woman he
did not know “sweetheart.”
Henry Freeborough of Bulwell,,
Eng., in his will left a penny each to
a son and daughter.
