Teague Election;
Bureau To Give
Run-Off Returns
The Teague Election Bureau,
sponsored for the past quarter
a century by the Chronicle, will
collect, coihpile and announce the
primary returns as they come
Saturday evening for the run-off.
The directors’ room of the Teague
National Bank has been equipped
with lights, fans and telephones
for the purpose, and the returns
will be announced from the stand
on the west side of the building,
where Fourth Avenue will be
roped off from Main Street to
the alley south of the building.
The official ballot will be i
simple affair for the run-off, and
an effort will be made to include
the county totals in the six state
races by boxes, as well as those
of the county.
Following is a copy of the offi-
cial ballot, published for the bene-
fit of the voters:

THE CHRONICLE, TEAGUE, TEXAS, AUGUST 25, 1938.
September might Jjave been
named aa it is for the seventh
month of the old Roman year, but
to the American sports fan it
symbolizes the arrival of the foot-
ball season, with the crashing of
the blocks and tackles, the thrills
of the completed forward passes,
and .the dips' into gloom as the
other club intercepts a Ideal
aerial, the cheers as a swivel-
hipped back breaks through and
dashes for yards and yards, etc.
And so it is that the accumulated
dust of some nine months is
dusted off the above heading and
it is put back in the forms for
weekly appearance in the Chron-
icle—to bring the readers the be-
hind the scene dope and idle
chatter on the Teague Lions and
their gridiron opponents for the
1938 season.    t
heaviest back has to bear down
hard to tip the scales at 155; the
heaviest lineman—and only one
of him—weighs 197, with the
next lad doing well to weigh 170.
At any rate, the above sob story
should please Coach Davidson no
end, and he should set ’em up to
Barney.
\
The Lions started workouts this
week under the direction of a new
Head Coach, Wiley Grinnell, a
dyed in the wool exponent of
the Notre Dame system of foot-
ball. His football candidates have
spent this week in getting the
elementary ideas of the colorful
Notre Dame shift into their nog-
gins, and work on plays .will fol-
low the latter part of next week.
Fundamentals, fundamentals, fun-
damentals, is the theme of ‘ Grin-

Miss Teetsa Boumias of Nava-

week.
Miss Jo Anne Bowen of Marlin

Robert D. Ellis of Tucumcari,
New Mexico, who is with the
State Highway Department, has
been visiting Mr. and Mrs. S. J.
Scott and family.
Miss Norma Perkins of Fort
Worth is the guest of her sister,
Mrs. S. E. JMayberry.
Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Hunt are
now in Duluth, Minn. They are
enjoying their traiior very much.
They intend to stay about a week.
Speaking here last Friday in
behalf of the candidacy of Pierce
Brooks, the plain businessman,
who led the race for Lieutenant
Governor in the July 23 primary,
J. V. Nelson of Athens and B. B.
Burnett, said:
“The wholehearted endorse-
ments plrdrinir thntT*active sup-
port support received by Pierce
Brooks from Senator G. H. Nel-
son, George A. Davidson, Jr., Al-
ton M. Mead, and other * well
known citizens of the State is
ample proof of a landslide vote
being cast August 27, for the
standard bearer of the people in
their flight against the monopol-
izing special interests of Texas,
who are mobilizing their forces
in an attempt to tie the hands of
our new Governor by placing in
office their candidate. But, all
their money and political trickery
will not stop the people and
Pierce Brooks, their candidate for
Lieutenant Governor. The people
realize that they must go back
to the polls August 27, and com-
plete their job of putting Texas
on a good sound basis, thereby
ridding our Capitol of “Old Line”
political disregard of peoples’
rights that is so evident today.
The lines are well drawn in the
fight between the people and the
politician.”
nell’s policy, as the Notre Dame
system, more so perhaps than
some systems, depends upon the
rhythm and precision of the of-
fensive blocks to send the ball
carrier on down the field to
touchdown land. Each play Ts
basically a touchdown play—if
the players ahead of the leather
lugger handle their assignments!
;,.P P
Next week the members of the
squad will be put    before    the
looking glass, and we will at-
tempt to see what is ' mirrored
therein. Pessimism seems to go
hand in hand with the football
season, and rarely can a coach be
found who thinks    things    will
work out as he wants them to.
That being the case, it is refresh-
ing to hear Grinnell say “We’re
gonna win some ball games. Just
which ones they’ll be, I don’t
know—but we’re    gonna    win
some.”
Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Donaghe
and daughter, Lee Elinor, of

The Ennis Daily News is com-
ing to the Chronicle exchange
desk during the football season,
and we find the following com-
ments by Pete Barney under the
heading “Sports Fodder” which
are gleaned from the column:
“To start things off, our team
this year and their chances are
not very bright . . . During the
past four years Coach Davidson
and his able assistants have won
three district championships, one
regional, and finished second in
the other ... If you stop to con-
sider that the coaches have had
to build new teams from year to
year, then you will understand
and appreciate such a wonderful
record . . . During spring training
things were looking up . . . The
coach had some promi^ng mate-
rial . . . eleven boys who could
start and be on even terms with
others , . . There wasn’t and
never had been enough reserve
strength . . . final exams took
their toll . . . Four first string
men and one promising reserve
were lost ... a fullback weighing*
196, a tackle weighing 220,
half back weighing 172, and a
guard weighing 160 . . . reserve
lineman weighed 180 . . . Their
presence meant the difference be-
tween a winning and a losing
team .... As things stand today
the Lions will be lucky to make a
couple of first downs . . . Remem-
ber this: if Ennis turns out to be
a winning team this year, (he

From another portion of the
Ennis News, same date as above,
we get the following:
“Coaches Davidson, Blair and
Mitchell left early this rnomihg
for Mineral Wells with some 26
boys training for the Ennis High
Lions grid team.”
Then follows a list of 26 names
and weights, presenting an av-
erage of approximately 140
pounds. If the average holds
true, we won’t be able to believe
our eyes this fall In Ennis, for
in some five or six years we Rave

averaged less than 150 per man.
For the good of the locals, we
hope the figures prove exact.

Dave Doyle, the man-mountain
manager of Estes, is one of the
most ardent grid fans in town,
and can hardly wait until the
16th to see the Teague-Marlin
fracas. He is doing his bit in
helping some of the boys by pro-
viding part time employment in
his store on Saturdays. That’s a
good example, and doubtless
Coach Grinnell and the school of-
ficials would like to
more of the same.
