Goldthwaite High returned to
the winning trail here Friday
night as the Eagles soared over
the Early Longhorns, 31-0, in
their first conference game of
the season
The Eagles' big offensive line
set the stage, their defenses kept
the Longhorns honest and hard
running Childress racked up the
points /
Childress, a 182 pound sopho-
more halfback, was little short
of spectacular He scored three
touchdowns on runs of 72. 45,
and 21 yards and rolled np an
amazing 225 yards rushing on
16 carris for 14.1 yards per
carry to account for more than
half of Goldthwalte’s offensive
total of 446 yards.
In the first quarter the Eag-
les came up with their first six
pointer as they erupted from 85
yards away in only two plays.
First Childress tacked up the
Eagles’ first down when he
plunged from his own 15 to the
28 yard line.
Then on the next play he
blasted up the middle and haul-
edm yards to give the Eagles a
6-0 lead with 7:01 left in the
opening period Halfback Char-
les Blackburn hiked the count
to 8-0 with a successtul two-
point converslon run.

When we view the early his-
tory of the Priddy community,
we behold the Lord Jesus ful-
filling His Word, "I will buUd
My Church."
Through the Holy Spirit’s
guidance He moved the early
Lutheran settlers to invite pas-
tors of Aleman, Hamilton coun-
ty, to come and serve their
spiritual needs.
The result of their Christian
labors was that on October 26,
1889. Zion Lutheran Church was
organized, and fourteen years
later, on December 27, 1903, St
John Lutheran Church was or-
ganised under the spiritual
leadership of a pastor from Kil-
leen A further result of the
Holy Spirit’s work was the mer-
ger of St John and Zion con-
gregations to form Zion Luther-
an Church, Priddy, Texas This
merger was effected on Septem-
ber 7. 1941
Feeling the need of a house
of worship, Zion Lutheran
Church built its first house of
worship in 1892 In 1898 the
congreatlon built a parsonage,
and eight years later it enlarged
the church
For a number of years after
Its organization, St John Lu-
theran Church met for worship
services in a school house In
1916 St John built its house of
worship, and in 1917 the con-
gregation built a parsonage
The present Zion Lutheran
Church was built in 1929
In 1941 the St John property
was moved to Priddy near the
Zion Church The St John
Church was used as an educa-
tion building, and the parson-
age was enlarged During 1960
the old education building was
taken down, and the new educa-
tion building was erected.
In the fall of 1961 a furnace
room was added to the rear of
the church, and two furnaces
were installed.
During the summer of 1964
air conditioning was installed in

After an entertaining half-

took the kickoff and marched
on for their third TD.
Again Childress was the big
name as he stepped off the final
21 yards with 10 06 left in the
third quarter Childress’ fine TO

drive that went 46 yard* in five
plays This time Blackburn pro-
