The Ho Bo Woods’ mission was.
not his first taste of combat. In
August, he and 30 other men
were attacked, and of the 30, only
Pfc. Spurgin and four others sur-
vived the mission uninjured.
These five men carried the dead
and wounded across streams and
through enemy fire to safety.
Then only a month later came the
Ho Bo Woods’ mission.
In October, Pfc. Spurgin again
was sent on a mission, and his
company was attacked. He was
wounded in the left arm and lost
his eye. After a month’s stay in
Tokyo, Japan, he was flown to
the States and to Brooke Gen-
eral Hospital, Fort Sam Houston,
Texas. He was given the rank of
Sp. 4th Class on Jan. 15, 1968,
and he was honorably discharged
from the Army on April 23, 1968.
Pfc. Spurgin is no stranger to
awards and medals. Other than
the Silver Star, he has received
the Purple Heart, the Oak Leaf
Medal, Combat Infantry Badge,
Vietnam Campaign Medal, Viet-
nam Service Medal, National De-
fense Service Medal, and Sharp-
shooters (rifle M-14) Medal.
After being discharged from
Fort Sam Houston, Pfc. Spurgin
returned to his home in McKin-
ney to live with his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. B. B. Spurgin, 502 Wad-
dill St. He is presently employed
with Texas Power & Light Co. in
Irving.
Miss Collin County, in addition
to her title, received a $200
scholarship given by Blackland

Collin County National Bank,
and A. M. Scott & Company; a
savings bond from Gene Fur-

ply toward her wardrobe for the

Spurgin was a soldier who show-
ed an individual dedication to his
comrades in arms and to the ur-
gent mission of the United States
in Vietnam.
The day was Saturday, Sept. 30,
1967, and the place was in the
Ho Bo Woods of Vietnam. His
company was attacked by the
Viet Cong. Wounded in the left
arm, Pfc. Spurgin became “one
man alone” — the only remain-
ing soldier of his company who
was able to continue fighting and
to call for help for his wounded
and dying comrades. Because of
his single efforts on this day, he
was awarded the Silver Star, the
nation’s third highest award for
combat action against enemy for-
ces.
John M. H.emchman, LTC, In-
fantry Commander, Company D,
4th Battalion, 9th Infantry
(MANCHU), 25th Infantry Divi-
sion said of Pfc. Spurgin, “Your
heroic actions reflect your deep
seated love of country in keep-
ing with the MANCHU spirit —
‘Keep Up The Fire!’ ” Spurgin
was a member of this division, in
which he served as a rifleman.

attractive brunette Miss Dianna
McClain of McKinney.
The crowning of Queen Dianna
climaxed three hours of entertain-
ment at the Miss Collin County
Beauty Pageant Friday evening
in the air conditioned McKinney
High School auditorium. The
event is sponsored annually by
the McKinney Jaycees.
Queen Dianna won her title
over five other young ladies from
Collin County. First runner-up
was Miss Charlyese McGee,
daughter of Mrs. Dorothy Mc-
Gee, who presented her version
of “Summertime”. She played
“millions of dollars in taxes were
being evaded” and that the “vest-
ed interests have proved their
political power to escape the tax-
es they ought to be paying.”
Morse stated that he would vote
against the bill because “what
this country needs is tax reform
and not tax increase.”
We cannot help but agree with
him. The late Senator Kennedy,
in his debate with Senator Mc-
Carthy, made the statement that
he knew (this was said without
reservations) persons who made
$200,000 annually and others
worth millions who paid no in-
come taxes at all. He did not ex-
plain.
While the war goes on and on
with the expenditure of more and
more for its support, as our for-
eign aid to other countries con-
tinues, the national deficit
mounts. It will continue to mount
until expenditures are cut.
And while that deficit mounts
and wage earners pay and pay,
Congress is now considering ways
of transforming the nation’s $8
billion welfare program into a
system of income guarantee. It
will be a long time before that
transformation can be made, but
in the meantime, “the concept of
guaranteed income is winning
converts and provoking debate on
the left and on the right,” ac-
cording to the National Obser-
ver.
No one with a spark of Christ-
ianity in his heart opposes as-
sistance to the hungry and needy.
But, with proposals to assure peo-
ple enough money to meet bastic
needs whether they work or not,
we most heartily disagree.
As long as the unnecessary
spending goes on, it looks as if
you and I, the in-betweens, will
pay through the nose.

It looks now as if we will all
have to dig a little deeper in our
pockets to come up with enough
to finance all the government pro-
jects, some legitimate and others
completely unnecessary.
Beginning next month, most
American wage earners will find
their take-home checks smaller,
and Texas shoppers will likely
have to come up with another
penny out of each dollar spent.
After one of the largest and
bitterest disputes in the history of
Congress, the 10 percent sur-
charge was passed last week and
sent to the President.
While national newspapers
were headlining the surcharge
passage, Texans were reading
about the 1-percent increase in
the state sales tax. It all adds up
! to a bit of discouragement to the
J middle class wage earner and the
' small business man who, it is
generally acknowledged, pay the
largest portion of collected taxes.
The 10 percent surcharge, as it
now stands, is to expire on July
1 of next year. In other words it
is to serve only as a stop gap due
to the mounting deficit in fed-
eral spending. But, not many peo-
ple believe it will be only tem-
porary. Temporary things have
an annoying way of becoming
permanent with the passage of
time, and Congress has the re-
served right to extend the law if
it is found necessary.
With the peace talks going so
badly in Paris, it looks as if we
will be supporting the fighting of
a war for a long time to come. It
would have been good had we
had more fighters like Senator
Wayne Morse, Democratic Sena-
tor from Oregon, who waged a
battle against the tax increase
right up to the bitter end .
Senator Morse contended that
possible. She said it had certainly
been a wonderful highlight in
her life. Her final duty was to
crown the new Queen.
Pageant officials are to be con-
gratulated on their selection of
Jaycees Bob Thompson and
Johnny L. Davis for the emcee
honors of the evening. They really
kept the show moving, and with
the help of five fine judges, the
first known local pageant was
over by ten o’clock.
Six visiting Queens who will be
competing in the Miss Texas Pag-
eant next month were present
and were introduced to the aud-
ience. They were Misses Dallas,
Fort Worth, Haltom City, Texas
Woman’s University, Arlington,
and Grand Prairie.

Shiela Odle, daughter of Mr. and

a dramatic reading for her tal-
ent competition.
Queen Dianna, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Homer McClain, com-
bined vocal and dancing talents
with her presentation of “Big
Spender” from the Broadway
musical, “Sweet Charity.”
Other contestants in the Open
Division were Miss Alena Nich-
ols of Princeton, Miss Norma Sue
Carter of Frisco, and Miss Becky
Webb of McKinney.
Another coveted title, that of
Miss Jaycee in the Senior Divi-
sion, was awarded by the panel
of five judges to Miss Mariette
Miller, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Louis Miller. She was in com-
petition with eleven other con-
testants. Miss Dessie Carroll was
named first runner-up with Miss
Valerie Vaughn taking the sec-
ond runner-up spot.
In the Intermediate Division,
Sharon Stone took top honors
over nine other contestants. Laur-
ana Curtis was selected as first
runner-up with Sandy Talkington
receiving second runner-up hon-
ors.
In the division which always
draws the greatest number of
entries, the Junior Division for
ages 3 to 7, petite Rhonda Bailey
was acclaimed the winner by the
judges. Judy Kay Jones was first
runner-up followed in the second
runner-up slot by Julie Franke.
There were twenty-three entries
this year.
Jaycee President James Mc-
Carley opened the show with a
welcome to all in the audience
and to the contestants in the
show. He also expressed apprec-
iation to all who had a part in
making the pageant a success.
Mrs. Judy Hamilton Lindsey of
Arlington, a former Miss Collin
County title holder, was in Mc-
Kinney Thursday and Friday
nights and directed the choreo-
graphy for the opening number
which she wrote. The number was
titled, “Pageant Is a Wacky
World.” She later presented a
medley of songs.
Miss Collin County 1967, Roxa
Penland, performed several times
during the Pageant with vocal ar-
famous “Desert Song” “One
Alone” and other enchanting
numbers. We’d say the Summer ,
Musicals are off to a terrific start! ’
