“I’m really proud of
the girls,” said Coach
Bob Wright of , the
Violets basketball team.
According to their
coach the girls took
their first defeat of the
year with dignity and
showed real sportsman-
ship.
The basketball girls
lost their bid for the

to the Duncanville Daf-
fodils, 28 to 19. They'
placed second in a field
of 6 teams.

County Commissioner
Roy ’Orr, who was ap-
pointed to the Commis-
sioner’s post by Dallas
County Judge W.L. (Lew)
Sterrett, formally an-
nounced his bid for re-
election. District 4
covers much of Oak Cliff
DeSoto, Cedar Hill,
Duncanville, Grand
Prairie, irving and
Southwest Dallas Coun-
ty.
Orr stated, “I have
continually fought the
evils of forced busing
and have been a pro-
ponnet of the neighbor-
hood schools for many
.years.”
At the time of his
appointment, Orr was
mayor of DeSoto, and it
was during this time he
organized the Mayor’s of
Dallas County into a
group to Combat Forced
Busing. It was Orr who
urged the Mayors and
their respective councils
to pass resolutions op-
posing the forced busing
of Dallas County’s
school children. Orr then
took these resolutions to
Washington, D.C.
It is sad that one of
my opponents, while
serving as a member of
the Texas House of Re-
presentatives, voted
against House Concur-
rent Resolution Number
65 that was for local
control of our schools.
“As a matter of fact, he
was the only House Mem-
ber from Dallas County
to vote against local'
control,’’ Orr said. Not
only did one of his op-
ponents vote against
local control of our
schools, but he did not
vote for the Ethics Bill,
and he did vote for the
Sharpstown Bank Bills,
[n four years as a mem-
aer of the Texas House
of Representatives, one
of my opponents has
never had one, not one,
of his Bills to pass and
jecome law.
In order to be effect-
ive, one must be able to
cooperate and work with
his fellow office-holders.
I feel that my appoint-
ment shows confidence
in my ability to be
effective and to work
with the other members
of the Commissioners
Court.
During his tenure as
Mayor of DeSoto, Orr
appointed a 100 member
Blue Ribbon Committee
to involue more of the
local citizenry and to
improve communication
with the residents.
Orr started service to
his community, county,
and state at a very early
age as Scoutmaster for
Boy Scout Troop 141. He
served as president and
member of DeSoto’s
School Board for five
years. Orr has twice
served as president of
the DeSoto Chamber of
Commerce, president of
his local Lions Club
twice, and held various

district offices in Lions
International. He is a
past member of the
DeSoto Jaycees and
served on the Central
Highway Committee of
Dallas County for sev-
eral years.
Orr ;has served the
Democratic Party of
Texas as Precinct
Chairman, Committeeman
for Senatorial District 23
Chairman of the State
Democratic Executive
C ommittee.
Orr was named Out-
standing Man of DeSoto
in 1963.
He is married to the
former Janice Gallagher
of DeSoto, and they have
four children, Valorie,
age 18; Roxie, age 15;
Lei Ann, age 9; and Tim
age 3. The Orr family
sttends the DeSoto
Church of Christ, where
he is an Elder.
