Palestine, he said, would furrush

to utilize the water.
Neither of the other two mem-
bers of the Authority—Rusk and
Jacksonville — expressed a press-
ing need for a new source, but Ty-
ler's municipal needs were men-
tioned as a possible customer.

pounded water became a remote

'58 Cage Tilt
Rusk's Eagle cagemen Tuesday
night took a 48-31 thumping from
Frankston in the season opener
for the local club.
Scoring about three-quarters of
its 31 points from outside field
goals, the unexperienced and rel-
atively unrehearsed Rusk quintet
nevertheless turned in a good per-
formance.
Frankston, a no football school,
has had the feel of the court for
the full school year. The Eagles
entered the season without a sin-

Each Installment
On GI Loans Must
Be Paid On Time
Despite what some veterans may
believe, there is no grace period
for the late payment of install
ments on GI loans, Dr. George T.
McMahan, Manager of the Veter-
ans Administration Center in Wa
co, said today.
Thus, he added, veterans should
make their GI loan payments on
or before the date they are due.
Failure to do so may prove costly,
since GI lenders may make an ex-
tra service charge when payments
are received late.
He also warned that veterans
who gain the reputation of being
"chronic delinquents" will find
their lenders taking that fact into
account if the veterans should ev-
er need an extension of repay-
ment time on their GI loans.
