Women Meet; Plan
Annual Salad Luncheon
The United Methodist
Women met for their regular
monthly meeting at the
fellowship hall of the First
United Methodist Church Tues-
day, at 4:15 p.m.
Refreshments of cake and
punch were served to the six-
teen members by hostesses
Cathryn Stalcup and Margaret
Price.
This month’s program was
an Easter program entitled
“New Possibilities of Life,”
and was led by Frances
Barlow. Natalie Lane and
Cathryn Stalcup assisted by
reading scriptures from the Bi-
ble. The past president’s pin
was presented to Nelda Malone
by Vicki Spiekerman, present
club president, in behalf of all
members of the UMW. Mrs.
Malone was president in 1979.
Final plans were made for
the annual salad luncheon to be
sponsored by the UMW. This
event will be held Saturday,
April 12, at the church’s
fellowship hall. Serving time
will be from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
with the price of $2.00 per plate
for youngsters age 10 and
under, and $3.00 per plate for
all others. A variety of
delicious salads will be served.
The luncheon is the only fund
raising project of the year for
the United Methodist Women
and is open to the public.
Tickets will be sold at the door
and a cordial invitation is ex-
tended to all.
The next meeting of UMW is
scheduled for April 15, at the
fellowship hall.
15-Year Old Awarded
Rural Heroism Award
A statewide search by the
Texas Farm and Ranch Safety
Council for the most deserving
recipient of the annual rural
heroism award has ended.
A Fifteen-year-old Jay Trammell
W of Central Texas received this
honor for his act of bravery and
quick thinking when saving the
life and limb of his grand-
father, Harmon Trammell, 68,
a farmer-rancher in the Olin
Community near Hamilton.
Jay, the son of Mr. and Mrs.
Jack Trammell, received the
award at the annual meeting of
the Texas Safety Association
here Monday.
d The Trammells were living
in Center in East Texas at the
time of the accident last sum-
mer, but have since moved to
Hamilton. Jay was staying with
his grandparents for the sum-
mer, helping in the fields.
Jay and his grandfather were
on separate tractors pulling
shredders in the same field late
in the afternoon on July 9,1979.
The elder Trammell noticed a
^ malfunction on his shredder (a
rotary mower), and while step-
ping down to investigate, his
foot caught the shift lever and
threw it into high gear. It lung-
ed forward, throwing the
grandfather to the ground. The
rear tractor wheel ran over his
chest, breaking several ribs
and inflicting other injuries.
Trammell managed to clear
his upper body from the shred-
der, but his legs and feet were
cut badly, with his right foot
almost severed from his leg.
Jay witnessed the accident,
and rushing over, jumped onto
the shredder and climbed on
the tractor to shut off the
engine because it ws circling
dangerously close to his grand-
father. Jay ran for the truck,
lifted his badly-mangled grand-
father into the front seat, and
drove to some neighbors, who
finished the 12-mile drive to the
Hico City Hospital.
Due to his grandson’s
bravery and quick action,
Trammell not only has his life,
but his right foot was also sav-
ed.
Joan and Cynthia Atkinson
travelled to San Antonio, where
they were weekend guests in
the home of friends, Mr. and
Mrs. Dennis lams.
