SLIPPERS, in Black and Copenha-
Mr. and Mrs. Barry Scobee of Ft.
Davis were in Alpine Tuesday and
made the Avalanche office a pleas-
ant visit. Mr. Scobee is an old news-
paper man haing at one time edited
the Ft. Davis Post, and has followed
the newspaper business and writing
practically all his life. He has been
away from this section some few
years in Canada and the northwest-
ern part of the United States, en-
gaged in writing, Mr. Scobee said,
but has returned to Ft. Davis and
will make that his headquarters, and
resume the work he left off at the
time he left here, of writing fiction,
dealing with this part of Texas. Mr.
riors Friday afternoon during the
Baylor-St. Edwards game at Waco.
An X-ray picture revealed that the
lad had a fractured collarbone and
will be out of the game the remain-
der of the season. Deegan played a
great game in the first quarter and
started on the second lap in great
fashion. In crashing through the
line, however, he met more than his
equal and the injury resulted. Dee-
gan has played around the local
fields for many years and was the
mainstay of the St. Mary Academy’s
backfield last fall. Catch Jack Mea-
gher expressed regret at losing the
lad, especially for the annual clash
with Sam Houston Normal on Thank
having visited in Alpine on numer-
ous occasions and attended school
here. He is a nephew of Mrs. E. D.
Linn of this city.
