ites for the team trophy.

HOUSTON. Jan. 18.—(PP)-Resi-
dents of Pelly charge that Goose
Creek citizens one dark and deso-
late night long ago came into Pelly
and stole its lost postoffice, later
returned and stole its bank, and
now are trying to get its school.
Pelly has taken the school deal
to court.
District Judge W E. Moore yes-
terday granted an order tempora-
rily restraining Goose Creek from
completing its annexation of Ro-
bert E. Lee high school for 30
days.
The order further prohibits
exercise of any municipal powers
over the disputed territory during
that period.
A hearing will be held Jan. 24
In its petition. Pelly blames the
latest development on the schools
success with a football team.
The Ganders went high in-the
state football race, losing a tight
game to Waco who later tied for
the state championship. Pelly says
most of the players are Pelly boys.
The petition says that the terri-
tory including the school, wih
Goose Creek is trying to annex by
an ordinance passed Dec. 7. 1945,
was annexed by Pelly on June 7,
1928.
The day before Goose Creek’s
ordinance was official. Pelly had
retaliated unsuccessfully by trying
to annex Baytown.
The petition says they face the
possibility of "a small civil war'
if such high-handed practices con-
tinue.

Starting Late
DALLAS, Jan. 18 Texas
league club owners were arriving
in Dallas today for the annual
scheduled meeting opening tomor-
row at 10 a. m. at which time the
final item of business preparatory
to returning to baseball will be
disposed of.
If there is enough business to
warrant, another meeting will be
held Sunday but President J. Al-
vin Gardner said mapping of the
schedule was the only matter he
knew of due for discussion.
Statistician Bill Ruggles has
worked out four schedules for con-
sideration. The baseball race—first
since 1942—will start April 16
This is the latest any race ever has
opened. Gardner explained that it
was a week later than usual so as
to give the clubs a better chance to
obtain players since all will be
starting from scratch this year
The club owners will form a re-
ception committee at 11 a m Sun-
day for Baseball Commissioner A.
B. (Happy) Chandler, who will be
here for an informal meeting with
the league and to address a sports
achievement banquet next Monday
