Allsup Annual
Marathon Set
The 7th annual Allsup's
Marathon is slated to be
held in Govis, New Mexico
on Saturday, October 3rd.
Those interested in parti-
cipating are requested to
register no later than Sep-
tember 25th. Registration
fees on or before that date
will be S7.00. Registrations
after that date will cost
$9.00 and will be accepted
through Friday, October 2nd
at the race headquarters in
the Holiday Inn, 2700 E.
Mabry Drive. All proceeds
go to the Govis Track Gub.
Marathon activities will be-
gin October 2nd with a
spaghetti dinner at the Holi-
day Inn.
The marathon, sanctioned
and certified by the Ama-
teur Athletic Union (AAU),
will give runners a choice of
the full 26.2 mile course, a
13.1 mile course or a 10
kilometer course. The race
will start at the Govis High
School track at 7 a.m. Ac-
cording to Lonnie Allsup.
president of Allsup's Con-
venience Stores. Inc. and
snonsor of the race, "At 12
noon T-shirts will again be
given to all contestants who
complete the race and 117
trophies will be awarded to
the winners." The number
of trophies in three cate-
gories has been expanded
this year to reflect the grow-
ing number of runners com-
peting in the following age
groups: Female 0-15 years;
Males 15-29 and 30-39.
Competition reached new
heights last year with 440
runners participating, some
from as far away as Califor-
nia and Florida. An indivi-
dual record for the state of
New Mexico was set in the
half \ marathon with Al
Waquie winning in 1:07:47.
In fact, the first five finish-
ers in the half marathon all
bettered the old state mark.
Benito Arellano took the
marathon with a time of
2:34:27 and Kyle Smith the
10 kilometer in 33:59. A
field of over 500 runners is
anticipated for this year's
race.
Persons who desire addit-
ional information about the
Allsup's Marathon, or who
wish to receive a registra-
tion form, may do so by
writing: Royce Jones, 3532

____ling is

Baggarly salute to attract strange bedfellows
As editor Ben Knell of tile Ca-
nadian Record puts it, the dinner
honoring retired Tulia editor H.
M. Baggarly in Amarillo on Fri-
day night is sure to attract some
strange ideological bedfellows.
"The Salute to H. M. Baggarly
— Mr. Democrat and Country Ed-
itor” at 7 p.m. at the Hilton Inn Is
expected to attract Panhandle
Democrats and some state leeders
of the party.
It also, as Kuril observed in a
recent editorial column, may
draw "a few outspoken Republi-
cans who admire a worthy and de-
termined opponent, plus a few
political mugwumps...and fellow
editors of varying political persua-

“H M. has been tilting at Re-
publican windmills from ids Tulia
soapbox for 30 yean, with a sin-
gle-mindedness which has earned
him the title of ‘Mr. Democrat’
and the warm praise of such dis-
tinguished Texas Democratic par-
ty leaden as Lyndon Baines John-
son and Ralph Yarborough,” Ezz-
ell wrote.
Baggarly sold the Tulia Herald
a few yean ago to Wendell To-
oley, but he continues to write hit
political column, which has read-
ers throughout the nation.
Two collections of his writings,
“Texas Country Democrat” and
"Texas Country Editor,” have
been published.
The dinner is sponsored by
Baggariy’s friends in Tulia and
area Democrats under the leader-
ship of the district committee-
woman. Donna Forbes of Claude,

Kenneth Wyatt, Tulia artist
and humorist, will be the speaker,
and among the distinguished
guests will be former U. S. Sen
Ralph Yarborough of Austin, for-
mer State Rep. Ralph Wayne and
former Lt. Gov. Ben Barnes, both
of Brownwood, and U. S. Rep.
Jack Hightower.

chased from Mrs. Forbes in

Women InvolvBd In Farm Economics
COMMENTS
There are more male than female
farm residents.
Although farm residents are more
likely to be employed in agriculture
than non-agricultural industries, they
no longer make up the majority of all
agricultural workers.
Unemployment remains relatively
low among farm residents, although
their average income is lower than
that for non-farm residents.
Since it was first counted, the farm
population has declined almost
steadily. The North Central region
currently has the highest number of
farm residents, while the South, which
from 1920 through the mid-sixties was
the first in the number of people living
on farms, ranked second. The South's
share of the farm population has
dropped because of heavier rates of
population loss than the rest of the
country. The apparent increase in the
number of farm residents in the
Northeast is not statistically signifi-
cant.
FACTS ABOUT THE
FARM POPULATION
(From the USDA'S Economics and
Statistics Service.)
The U.S. farm population numbered
6.1 million during 1980, about 2.7% of
the total U.S. population. This esti-
mate of farm residents is not signifi-
cantly below the 1979 figure. How-
ever, over the last 2 years, there was a
significant decline of 450.000 resi-
dents. Regionally, the largest concen-
tration of farm residents is in the
North Central States, with 45% of the
total U.S. farm population.
A related report issued jointly by
the Bureau of the Census and the U.S.
Dept, of Agriculture (USDA) noted the
following characteristics of the 1980
farm population:
Compared with the non-farm popu-
lation. farm people are more likely to
be white than black or of Hispanic
origin.
Farm residents tend to be older than
their non-farm counterparts.
