a vaudeville
act by Jett Hughes known locally
as “The Tired Hand” of the Electra
Hardware Co. was presented in the
auditorium of the Elliott High
School. In the boy’s pig club con-
test sponsored by Electra merchants,
a pure bred sow pig of the big bone
Poland-China type bred by J. C.
Guyer was awarded to Fay Gooch, 9
years old, of the Elliott Community.
Electra firms awarding the pig in
this contest were: The Electra Star,
Electra News, and Smith Printing
Company. Boys winning in these
contests are required to sign an
agreement to use due diligence in
! caring for the pigs received and to
| return to the Mercantile Bureau of
the Electra Chamber one sow pig
from the first litter raised, to be
awarded in pig club contests to be
conducted during 1927. A similar
community meeting is planned for
Clara on Friday evening, September
24.
BY ROY MANKINS.
Sports Editor, The, News.
Approximately 500 people witnessed
the defeat of the Electra High
Tigers Saturday qfternoon when they
lost a ragged contest to Wilson,
Oklahoma, high school, 15 to 0. Al-
though the final count does not show
it, Mentor Jim has some fine mater-
ial for a good team this year, after
a few more Weeks of hard training
and scrimmaging. Mr. Reese used
the most of his men during some
More than 500 people attended the
community meeting held under the
auspices of the Mercantile Bureau
of the Chamber of Commerce and
Agriculture at Elliott Thursday eve-
ning. The program consisted of a
concert by the Electra Band; an ad-
dress by Attorney Ben W. Tipton of
E’ectra on “The New Relation Be-
tween the Man in the Country and
the Man in Town;” a
Master Russell Austin;
Mrs. Hal Hughes and daughter
• Maxine were visiting in Wichita
Falls, Saturday.
The fame of the Electra Creamery
is to be spread to the thousands of
persons who visit the State Fair of
Texas at Dallas this year. Ferd
Keller, Jr., general manager of the
Electra Creamery, a. cooperative con-
cern, is in receipt of a letter from
Chairman Thomas of the Dairy De-i
partment of Texas A. and M. Col-;
lege asking that tha creamery send
an exhibit.of its famous product to
the fair. Mr. Keller says the
creamery will have an exhibit at
the fair. He already is making room
on the walls of his office for the I
blue ribbons.
TH’lF e"lectr a' '
500 /MB BIG
COMMUNITY MEET
. HELD AT ELLIOTT
an equal chance to make a showing.
Douglas Fowler was the outstand-
ing player on both offense and de-
fense, getting many hard tackles
and opening holes for the backfield.
This is his first year to try for a
berth on the E’ectra eleven and he
will in all probability make a strong
guard for Reese; the guards being
left open when Gilger and Turner
finished their careers as high school
gridsters last year.
Lendon Smith, loomed as a good
backfield man, netting most of the
gains for Electra, but, most of all,
he shows a real fighting spirit that
should gain for him a permanent
position on the team. This is Smith’s
third year to train for football and
he has failed to make the team in
past years, but everyone expects
him to have much better luck this
year.
Taylor, an all state tackle on the
Wilson eleven played a stellar game,
breaking through the Tiger line for
the majority of the tackles netted
against the locals.
Following is the line-up started
by coach Reese:
Fullback, Harry Preston; Half-
backs, Gerald Gillum and Lendon
Smith; Quarter, Willis Carnahan;
Center, Roy Coolidge; Guards, Doug-1
las Fowler and Bob Smith; Tackles,
Orin Sargent and ^Buddly” Avens;
Ends, Sylvan Cloninger and Mike
Brown.”
It has been rumored among some
of the boys that there will be
game between the Wichita Falls
Junior College and Electra High
next Saturday but this is not an
official announcement. They will
probably take on Iowa Park the
following Saturday. \
The Electra Tigers wi'l take on
their old rivals, Wichita Falls’ Coy-
otes, Saturday, October 23 on the
local field and will play the Vernon
Lions the following Saturday. Or
October 7 they will tackle Quanah
, in the last scheduled game for this
part of the game, giving them all encj of this district.
