UNITED PENTECOSTAL
CHURCH ACTIVITIES
Sunday was packed vuth
blessings from the Lord,
reminding us of Psalm*
"Delight thyself also in the
l.ord, and He shall give thee the
desires of thine heart."
Hro. J. Hall, pastor of the
new P.A.W., First Pentecostal
Church of Bastrop, brought
several from his new church
over early before services on
Sunday morning and baptized .1
lady in the wonderful name of
Jesus. He reported later in the
day they had 24 in Sunday
School under the tent, We are
so excited seeing this answer to
our prayers as this Black
Pentecostal Church for Bastrop
begins to take root and grow.
A young man from Nigeria
who attends St. Edwards
University in Austin became a
member of the United Pente
costal Sunday School this week.
We know from this that God
will truly lead a hungry soul to
the truth of His Word if you
are sincere.
Several from the Church
were able to join with their
friends in (he pleasure they felt
at the lirsl official servici held

Thanks To
Helpers of The
Little League
Bastrop Little League has
closed an especially good year.
We would like to express our
appreciation and thanks to our
sponsors and all those who
made this possible.
Local business firms spon
soring teams are Kelley Peeb
les Ford. Gus's Drugs, Long's
Grocery, Clardy's Meat Mar
ket, First National Bank.
Citizens State Bank, Sawyer's
Wholesale, Long's Star Mart,
Griesenbeck Furniture, Has
trop Pharmacy and Kragh's
Jewelry.
We would also like to thank
Hilly Maynard and Austin
Savings for their financial help.
We are grateful to all the
coaches who have worked so
faithfully with our boys and to
the mom's who have kept the
concession stand open. There
are so many others who have
helped it is impossible to name
them all, but we do want to
remember Mrs. Wilma Wiley,
our county commissioner;
James 1'. Sharp, our mayor;
Cecil Long and Joe Middleton.
These fine people working
along with L.C.B.A., the City of
Bastrop and the Lions Club
have made a long time dream
for Bastrop come true. After
much time and effort on their
part Bastrop now has a new
Little League ball park. The
park is located on Hill Street.
Although we were unable to
use these facilities this season,
we are looking forward to a
great time next year.
We are very proud to have
had a wonderful president in
Donnie Hibbs. He has worked
so unselfishly with all the boys
in every capacity.
A very special thanks goes to
Lawrence Frerich for his
faithful work in the concession
stand.
His devotion to the youth
shows as lie is alwnys ready to
serve.
Last but not least, one who
has made a lifelong career of
being a friend to all the boys,
not only in baseballl but by just
being there year after year and
helping these boys grow into
fine young men, Bastrop will
always love Busty Reynolds.
All the boys are great and we
love them all. It was a close
season but there are winners
and losers in all competitive
play.
The winning team this year
in the Minor division was
sponsored by Clardy's Meat
Market and coached by Mat-
Ross.
In the Major League, the
number one team was the A's,
sponsored by Long's Star Mart
and coached by Rudy Barron
and Edward Fa/..
Little League Ball will begin
in eariy April next year. With
the two ball parks, there will be
even a greater opportunity for
all the boys and girls interested
in baseball.

Gardeners Get
New Insight
About Insects
Home gardeners who didn't
emerge victorious in their
battle with insects this year
probably gained new insight
into some of tlie problems
faced by farmers
Kven long time gardeners
and farmers are sometimes
puzzled over insect behavior
patterns One frequently
asked question is why ,i cer
tain insect turns up in great
numbers one year when it
was hardly seen ;il all the

The Fire Department made a
call Saturday evening al
approximately 8 P.M. It was a
cabin just off the Did Galveston
Boad on a side street north of
the bridge. They went out to
hack up the Bastrop Fire
Department. Four trucks were
there and most of the water
that the trucks can haul was
used. The supposition was that
some one went to sleep while
smoking. One man was led out
just in time to be saved. The
L. B. A. Volunteer Fire
Department was on the ball.
They arrived just as Mr. Long
was making a call for them to
back him up; he needed more
water. The people who were
alerted lo help watch and be
ready for a call during the
weekend were really on the
alert and they were on the job
in a very few minutes. The Fire
Chief was out of town, but Mr.
Bussa, the assistant, had
several fellows on call, and in
doing this, ihey were ready lo
go on a moment's notice. They
all came in hot and tired and
Mrs. McEvoy had refreshments
ready for them on their return,
which they appreciated so very
much.
But there is one other thing
that we would like to mention
in regard to being useful to a
fire department and that is that
Ihe trucks have to be washed
and Ihe fire hoses all have to lw
stretched out and washed iili
soap, then dried and rolled on

unwound, to light fire with
