The Lela 4-H club won third
place at the meeting held at
Wheeler Saturday. The boys were
accompanied by J. D. Puroell, spon-
sor of the local club.
The Lela boys’ stunt, written by
Aubrey Pike, was a racy dialogue
on the merits of a county agent.
The evidence advanced was laugh-
able but conclusive and convicting.
The prize money will be deposited
in the treasury to be used to send
a boy to College Station In the
summer.
Boys participating in the stunt
were: J. L. Coleman, Archie Pike,
Vernon Puroell, Gordon Pike. Dur-
ward Rankin, Jack Griffin, B. F.
Graham, Lee Earnest Erskine and

Lela Play
The characters have been selected
for a play which will be presented
at the Lela school In the near
future.
The play is a delightful comedy
in three acts, dealing with religion,
baseball and love. The characters
are exceptionally well fitted for the
roles In which they were cast. A
great deal of interest Is being
shown and all are getting to work
in gerat form.
