NEW FINISHES FOR EASY
CARE
Spot and stain resistant
finishes are being built-in or
applied to many upholstery
fabrics.
Most all of the treated
materials are labeled to tell
the type of soil resistant
treatment it has received. A
folder describes Its advantag-
es and gives tips on methods
of care.
Fabrics with a silicone or
other water repellent finish
resist water soluble soil. A
patened finish put on by
manufacturer also resists oily
soil. Spills can be blotted up
and will not soak into the
fibers. Soil remains on the
surface where It can be dust-
ed off or removed with the
vacuum cleaner. If necessary,
some surfaces such as vinyl
can be sponged off with warm
water and a mild detergent.
Permanent mothproofing
makes it possible to use wool
and wool-blends without fear
of damage from Insects.
Be sure to ask the sales
person for the facts on clean-
ability and fade resistance of
both sun and water. Since
much furniture must be
placed in front of windows,
one of the most critical tests
for upholstery fabrics is the
lightfastness require ment.
Most accidents happen from
liquids and some materials
fade or spot If water is spilled
on them.

THE BIG LAKE (TEXAS) WILDCAT
April 21,
By Pam HavenhlU
This week began the last
portion of the school year.
There are only 6 weeks left
for most students, only 5 for
the seniors. The seniors real-
ized just how close graduation
was last week when they re-
ceived their invitations.
The golf team came
through for RCHS again this
year and won district. On the
first team were Eddie Burk-
ett, Dan Edwards, Tommy
Hayes and Billy Benton. The
medalist was sophmore Billy
Benton who shot a 75. Eddie
Burkett was next with 77.
These boys will compete with
other district winners In the
regional tournament in Lub-
bock this weeke-end
The band received a very
good rating at the UIL Band
concert contest at Crane last
Friday. The Owl band receiv-
ed a II division in concert
playing and a II division in
sight-reading contest. The
band from Wink was the only
Class A band to receive a I
division in both concert and
sight-reading. Because of
these two wins and another
gained at marching contest
last November, Wink was
awarded a Sweepstakes Tro-
phy. The Reagan band proved
to be one of the best Class A
bands, and the band members
were very proud of their rat-
ing.
The Reagan Owls placed
Eth in the district track meet.
Sonora won the meet with 105
points. Three Owls placed
high enough in their events
to enable them to compete in
the regional meet held In
Lubbock this week-end. Don
Childs won the discus, while
Richard McReavy tied for 1st
place In the high jump, and
John Dolan placed 2nd in the
220.
The Student Council was
responsible for a safety as-
sembly which was given on
Wednesday. The presentation
was a film, The Last Prom,
which the Reagan delegates Mrs James Matthews ma
saw this past summer at thej Herbert Cope and Mrs j L

SOCIAL SECURITY NEWS
Older people in the Big
Lake area who did not sign
up for the voluntary doctor
care before the close of the
first enrollment period on
March 31, have been given a
little more time, Floyd B.
Ellington, social security dis-
trict manager in San Angelo,
announced today.
In legislation signed by
President Johnson last week,
Congress has extended until
May 31 the deadline for
enrollment by persons 65 or
over.
Nearly 90 percent of the
Nation’s elderly were enrolled
for the doctor bill insurance
when social security offices
closed at midnight on March
31, Ellington said. Only 5 per
cent had turned down the
protection which supplements
the basic hospital Insurance
provided persons 65 and over.
Another 5 percent had not
made up their minds cither
way, or else were not aware of
the deadline and the need to
sign up for the supplement-
ary protection.
Older people who have not
yet applied for their medicare
benefits should get in touch
with the nearest social secur-
ity office now, Ellington said.
Residents of the Big Lake
area can contact Frank Upp,
Field Representative from
the San Angelo District Of-
fice as follows: May 12 and
June 9, County Courthouse,
Big Lake, Texas.
