WAR CRY: 'Beat Anson."
zzzzzz
The football team will have to
do most of that, of course; but
there are still a good many people
who think their shouts of encour-
agement help their team to win
zzzzzz
One thing that makes football so
interesting Is that anything can
happen. A team can be clicking
in one game and nothing can stop
it, and then maybe next time the
tame outfit Is a pushover.
zzzzzz
Lots of money is spent on the
game, and many towns take their
football very seriously. However,
we need to remind ourselves that
games are not always played for
the iole purpose of winning, and
forgetting this has caused lots of
the fun to be missed in all kinds
of contests.
zzzzzz
Had it ever occurred to you that
other people are not going to look
down on you because you get beat
at a game In fact, there might
be a good many Instances when
(he other fellow might like you
better if he won.
zzzzzz
Speaking of play, Walter Wln-
fhell quotes the Broadway Wise-
guy as saying: "You Dont Stop
Playing Because You Grow Old.
You Grow Old Because You Stop
Playing."
zzzzzz
In war the defeated ones usual-
ly hate the conquerors The Japs
and Germans are taking their lick
ings with pretty good grace, and
it may finally turn out that tlx*
common people will be better off
there for their military leaders be-
ing practically wiped out,
zzzzzz
Now wouldn't it be funny if this
country should eradicate the mili-
tary in Germany and Japan und
then build up a big war machine
in our own country. With the
bomb in our possession for the
present, we could really be the
cock of the walk for a while.

Editor Harry C. JDodson of the.
Hurkburnrtt Star changes heading
on his column entitled Old Ram-
bler. The column had been con-
spicuously absent for some weeks
and then Editor Dodson came out
with an explanation of why he was
changing the column heading. It is:
zzzzzz
'You can't do much ramblin'
when you have your shoulder to
the wheel, nose to the grindstone,
ear to the ground, eye to the
future and both feci on the ground
- and that 's Just where we have
been."
The Wichita Times had an ed-
itorial on the Victory Bond drive,
and quoted a 21-year-old B-28
pilot of Dallas, The boy, who has
35 missions to his credit, comment-
ed In his city: "We have been
served peace and victory. Now
let's pick up the check."
zzzzzz
The University of Texas regents
say they are not going to elect a
new president Just now, until they
have time to check over some of
the suitable material. Of course,
thqy have had a year in which to
look around. They could have
gone ahead and said that no cap
able man would have the job un-
der its present set up,
zzzzzz
Some people are working their
way Into heaven, others depend on
coasting in; while there are a
few who feel so confident that
they do not worry about whether
or not they will make It Others
do riot trouble their minds about
the matter at all.
zzzzzz
John Gould of the Wichita Times
remarks An the fact that hay fever
sufferrers have become docile and
have made no appeal this year to
the government for relief With
strikers making demands and near-
ly everybody applying for some
kind of bonus or allotment, the
hay feverers have probably modi-
a mistake.
ami
They may have finally decided
that nothing can be done to cure
(heir trouble, but something could
be dont With their numbers and
political influence it should hi an
oaav thing for the sufferers to get
a subsidy oi so per month

Anson Game Fri.
Will Help Decide
District Winners
Football will fly thick and fast
on the Seymour field Friday night.
At present Stamford. Anson and
Seymour are tied for first place
in District 11A—and Seymour and
Anson meet here tomorrow night
to see which team will go into the
finals with Stamford for District
Championship. Anson is out to win
the District this year, and Seymour
is out to repeat; of course Stam-
ford is just waiting to tear up both
their playhouses.
The tilt Is called for 7:30 at the
Fair Park Stadium. With weather
favorable, the stands should be
packed. Coach O. B. Willbanks has
his Panther squad in pretty good
condition. No Injuries of any con-
sequence were sustained last week
against. Hamlin. Dope means very
little In figuring how a ball game
will come out, however, Anson beat
Albany 13-0 last Friday night; the
same score by which the Panthers
beat Albany two weeks earlier. It
would seem by that dope both
teams are pretty evenly matched.
Anson had a good team last year
and lost only a few boys whereas
the Panthers lost nine boys from
last year's regional champ team.
Coach Willbanks has developed a
squad this year that will battle
any team to the last whistle and
are in the habit of winning. It will
be a good game Friday night win,
lose or tie.
Last Friday night the Panthers
were in Hamlin taking a game
from the Pled Pipers, It turned out
to be a pretty tough game with the
Panthers winning 13 to 6 in spite
of being assessed 00 yards in pen-
aftles.
First Quarter
With Hamlin receiving Bryan
Hatter kicked with Tirey Samsill
holding, to the Hamlin 25, returned
to 3B, Hatter making the tackle.

to the 50 yard stripe. Hamlin fumb-
led with Perkins recovering for
Seymour. Hatter hit line for no
gain. Hatter picked up five yards
over left guard. Samsill gained two
yards but Seymour received a five
yard offside penalty, which was re-
fused. Samsill punted to Hamlin's
20 yard line. Rowland was stopped
by Moore for no gain. Dean picked
up three yards over right tackle.
Rowland quick kicked to Seymour
40 yard line. Samslll's pass to Har-
ris was no good, Seymour was off-
side but penalty refused. Ilariis
gained eight over left guard, and
Seymour got 15 yard penalty for
clipping. Harris, over left guard
for five yards. Samsill punted from
Piper's 40 out of bounds on the 13.
Rowland's attempted pass lost two
yards. Rowland gained a yard over
right guard. Rowland's pass to
Gray was incomplete. Rowland

sill and returned to 37 Perkins

flutter gained three yards over left
guard Hatter made a nice 35 yard
run on a cutback for the first scor-
ing of the game. Samsill passed to
Perkins for the point, giving Sey-
mour a lead of seven points, Hatter
kicked to Dean on 22 where he was
stopped by Hatter and Cox. Tuck
stopped Dean for a yard gain. Row-
land gained three, stopped by Whlt-
ten Rowland to Gray incomplete.

turned to 27. Rowland pass to Gray

lin was offside, penalty refused,
Rowland tried another pass that

on 20, returned to 36. Panthers 15

Junior Panthers
Smear Olney B
Team 16-0 Tuesday
Still smarting from a 13-0 defeat
handed them two weeks earlier,
the Panher Cubs came back Tues-
day night to give the Olney Cub-
lets a thorough trimming 16-0.
Coach Willbanks has about 40
boys in the Freshmen and Sopho-
more category that promise to put
the Panthers squad on top for sev-
eral seasons to come. Sparked by
the running attack of Ralph Culver
and George Morris the Cubs held
their own well the first half but
failed to push over the touchdowns.
Early in the third quarter Olney
was pushed back to her goal line
and was caught for a safety Later
Morris carried the ball into scoring
position and Culver carried over.
The point was made running. In
the last period an Olney punt was
blocked on the five yard line, re-
covered and carried over by the
Junior Panthers for another score,
the point being made by running.
Some good material is being de-
veloped which will fill in the open
spots In the Panther lineup next
year.

A meeting of the soliciting com-
mittees for the Victory Loan drive

able start has been made, and he
thinks the county will go over th<
top this time, just as in all the
other bond drives.

those who intend to make sub-
scriptions shall do tfils early in

JAMES Y. ELLIOTT
Funeral services were held at
the Baptist church iri Bomarton
on Thursday afternoon. Oct. 28th,
for Jim Elliott, who died at his
home on Oct. 23rd. Heart failure
was the cause of his death.
The services were conducted by
Rev. Reneau Swindell, pastor of
the Bomarton Baptist Church, who
was assisted by Rev. J. R. Balch
of Seymour. Interment was in the
Bomarton cemetery, with the fol-
lowing as pallbearers L. Pierce, L.
B. Pierce, Roy Richeson, Arthur
Eidson, Ed Holub and Anton Kohut.
A large number of sorrowing
friends were present for the last
rites of this good man.
James Y. Elliott was born Nov,
10, 1884, In Montague County, Tex-
as. He came with his family to
Baylor County in 1907, and had
lived ever since in the communi-
ty north of Bomarton. For many
years he and family have been on
the old home place some 3 miles
north of Bomarton. Not long ago
they had remodeled their home,
making of it an attractive place In
which to live.
In 1909 Mr. Elliott was united!
in marriage to Miss Eula Harlaml
of the adjoining Shady community,
and they had lived on the same
place during all their married life.
His wife survives him, together
with three sons: Edmon, Jimmy
and Wilson Elliott The deceased
is also survived by three sisters
and two brothers Mrs. Cilia Kel-
ly of Bomarton, Mrs Richard Cas
sle of Albuquerque, N M , and
Mrs J C. Brooks of Seymour; and
P. t' Elliott of Bomarton and Tom
Elliott of Chillieothe Texas.
Mr Elliott professed faith in
Christ at an early age, and he
lived out faithfully his profession
in his daily hie lie was a kind
friend and a helpful neighbor, and
a citizen whose loyalty was un-
questioned Apparently, he had
many years of usefulness and hap
pines, before him and his death
has been an occasion for sorrow
throughout the community and the
cpunt.v The community at large
e*tcmL the deep' it sympathy to
Itu loved ones, who have been so
sadly and so suddenly bereaved
Election on Bond
For School to Be
Held Here Nov. 3
Voters of the Seymour Inde-
pendent School District will have
the opportunity on Saturday, Nov.
3rd. of voting on the proposition
of issuing bonds in the sum of
$24,000, with which to finance two
needed improvements. The issues
are rather well known, but a brief
resume of them will be given.
One main item of expense now
needing to be assumed is in the
proposed construction of a voca-
tional building at the high school.
The building which had sufficed
for this has been taken over as
a school lunch room, and this feat-
ure was badly needed, especially
when so many pupils come In from
the rural districts. And the build-
ing was not very suitable anyhow
for the vocational work
Another project is the building
of a place where the school buses
can be kept. The district has a
large outlay In these buses, and
it behooves the trustees to take
good care of this property. If the
building is erected, then it will
be the duty of one of the drivers
to stay there during the day and
work on repair and maintenance
of the vehicles.
It is expected that the two struc-
tures will not use up all of the
$24,000, and if there is anything
left over It will be used in pay-
ing off some bonds that are draw-
ing 0 per cent.
Before the consolidation with a
number of rural districts was ef-
fected the Seymour district had
set aside 30 cents on the dollar
of taxes received for the purpose
of retiring Its bonds. With tax-
able valuations nearly doubled, all
of this will not be needed. There-
fore, the voting of bonds will in-
cur no added taxes. Also, the ef-
ficiency provided by the two new
buildings should save the district
more than enough each year to
retire the bonds.
The school board feels assur-
ance In stating that the new bonds,
If voted, will not carry an interest
rate of more than 2 1-2 per cent,
and it is liable to be substantially
less than 1hat,
New Owners Take

tend the funeral of Jack J Rieger,

T. Rieger. who married Miss Eliza-
beth Donchoo. R. T. has been
In the navy, but has had his dis-
charge and Is back home, During
his absence his wife has held down
the position of postmistress. She
was ready to turn this job back
to her husband, but since the death
of his father Mr. Rieger intends
to resign as postmaster and become
manager of the dry goods store
that was run by the elder Rieger
until his death.
B. C. Brady was here last of the
week from Carlsbad, N M for
the purpose of winding up some
business affairs here and seeing
about things on hla farm north-
west of town. Mr. Brady says that
they are situated very nicely at
Carlsbad, and the boy's health is
much better there The altitude
Is a bit high for Mr Brady, but
he thinks he can stand it all right.
Mrs. Brady decided to take the
management of the largest tourist
camp at Carlsbad, which is a bet-
ter job that she would have had
with the Caverns, as she had first
intended

pathy and help they gave us at

CROWDS NEE NEW FORI)
Manager J. O Butler of the j
Ford agency here, iri commenting I
on the great number who have
been in to see the new car, says |
it has been tough turning down
so many offers to buy. He hopes
all the would-be purchasers will i
j still be in the market when the I
I machines are again In mass pro- i
j ductlon.
j The 1940 Ford has some resem- |
blance to former models, but also
has many added new features. A-
morig the outstanding features are:
a more powerful motor, a better
performance, longer life, improv-
ed economy and a better ride.
The new V-8 engine developes a
horsepower of 100, which is more
powerful than any car the com-
pany has formerly made.
The chief exterior change is a
newly designed radiator grille.
The louvers are fewer in number
and larger. They extend horizon-
tally from fender to fender, en-
nancing a lower, broader appear-
ance.
Luxury and eye-appeal are ac-
centuated in the Interiors. Instru-
mentation is generally the same,
but the styling and color schemes
of the Instrument panel are new.
Durable, eye-appealing art-leather
decorates the door panels and the
interior trim
Over all, the new car Is bigger
and sturdier than ever, with 32
outstanding engineering Improve-
ments, and a choice of six body
types.
Sgt. Albert Wlrz is plain mister
again, and is enjoying the title.
He received his discharge Tues-
day from the air corps, in which
he had been serving all the time
as a physical director Before he
went into the service Albert had
been teaching and coaching foot-
ball teams, He seems doubtful a-
bout going back to that work,
however, At. present he and his
wife are visiting his mother, Mrs,
A Wirz, and taking things easy
for a while. For a little spell it
will seem good to just sleep as
late as a fellow wants to, and not
take orders from anybody,
week had come up to that of the
past week, then our quota would
have been in the bag
Chairman Bunkley will be back
home Monday, and further news
will be given next week on the
j future plans for the drive.
