First period of Camp Kawinis
camping officially closed Sunday
j noon, after some 50 boys had
spent the week here in prepara-
tion for the National Jamboree.
M. H. McMasters was director
general of the camp, with D. P.
Antwiler in charge of scout ad-
vancement. John H. Hopkins, Jr.,
was in charge of water front di-
rection.
Boys from Gladewater, Eleysian
Fields, Longview, Tyler, and oth-
er towns of this section attended
the camp.
Time was spent in passing scout
tests, life-saving classes, and other
activities pertaining to scout life.
From here, those boys who plan
to attend the National Jamboree
in Washington went to Longview
for a three-day training camp
prior to the Meeting.
Beginning here July 18th, the
scouts will return here for the
period of camp, which will be
three consecutive weeks with a
hundred boys expected for each
week.
Local scouts will attend the
second week camp, it has been
announced.

Writing on the Cherokee toma-

to say last week:

Approximately 50 railroad
freight cars of tomatoes have been
moved this season from Frankston
it was reported Tuesday. An un-
determined amount of tomatoes
have been trucked out of the area
to Jacksonville markets, it was
asserted.
Frankston sources estimated
that the crop is about half gath-
ered.
Quality and price of the toma-
toes are holding up.—Palestine

at the moment. "We are told
that when Oklahoma's Bill Mur-
ray Gulf fills with the expected
water our growing season will be
three weeks earlier. When the
fill has come up to expectations a
fisherman can fish in water 137
feet deep," we are told. That
depth is rather deep but not to
deep for Oklahoma. Our supposi-
tion is that Bill Murray Gulf is
the body of water being impound-
ed behind the big dam in the
vicinity of Ardmore. Governor
Murray inaugurated that inter-
prise during his term of office.
He wanted a place for his con-
stituents to fish, and he did not
designate the development as a
flood control measure, a naviga-
tion scheme or a power generat-
ing project. He wanted a place

ATHENS, June 17.—Two hours
after he had shot and killed a
Malakoff man who assertedly re-
sisted arrest, Traffic Officer E O.
Brown, 26, himself was injured
fatally when his motorcycle struck
the rear of a truck.
Brown and Constable D. D.
Billings had been summoned to a
Malakoff home Wednesday night
to quiet a disturbance. As they
approached, Billings said, William
Baker, 47, a brick company em-
ployee, came out on the front
porch and fired once with a shot-
gun. Brown put a pistol bullet
through Baker's heart as he re-
loaded and cocked his shotgun,
officers were told.
Justice of the Peace W. F.
Ybung returned an inquest ver-
dict that Baker died while resist-
ing arrest.
Brown left Malakoff a short
time later for Corsicana, his
former home, and was injured
when his motorcycle struck the
truck as he attempted to pass it
on Highway 31. The truck driver
took the officer to a Corsicana
clinic, where he died Thursday
