again break from the usual cus-

the audience.
The group will try its hand
at square dancing during the re-
ception, but the “ladies” refuse to
say just what will happen when
they start swinging in their high

show well worth the money; come
out and help the Boy Scouts.

Lions In Volleyball
The High School and College
teachers have challenged the Lions
Club to a public volleyball game
with the proceeds to be used to-
ward paying for an electric score-
board for the gym. The Lions Club
at its Tuesday meeting accepted
the challenge and the date of the
match was set for Thursday night,
March 30, at the High School Gym;
Clint Hennig was named coach and
captain of the Lions Club team.
Honor guests at the Tuesday

Roland Anderson, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Lee Anderson, and the Cub-
master and his assistant, David

of 35 members and are anxious
to have additional members. The
Cubs and their leaders told the
Lions of their activities and ex-
plained the meaning and benefits
of Cub scouting.
Lions Hugh Trotter and Jess
White were charged with advertis-
ing and politicking by the Lion
Tamer* at the meeting and will
have their cases presented to a jury
at the next Lions meeting. At this
coming meeting the Clifton Lions
will also be host to the District
Governor of the Lions Club; all
members are urged to be present.
The Trinity Lutheran -Ladies

there had been so much discussion
of horse meat in Texas the past

This they did with many extra trim-
mings plus homemade ice cream
and cake for one of the most de-
licious meals the club has enjoyed.

Injured h Wreck
Mrs. Anette Vemor, age 86, was
killed and her son, William Miller
Vemor, age 56, was critically In-
jured in an automobile accident on
Highway 6 about three miles north
of Clifton (near the entrance to
the Thompson Turkey Ranch)
sometime Wednesday morning.
The Vernors were believed to ba
from Ardmore, Oklahoma, and
were going north at the time of
the accident.
Mr. Vernor received internal in-
juries and concussions and had not
regained consciousness Wednesday
afternoon; his condition was con-
sidered serious by the doctors.
The accident was reported in
Clifton about five o’clock; C. G.
Bronstad went to the scene with
the Clifton Mercantile ambulance.
Mr. Vemor was said to be still be-
hind the wheel with his mother
lying on him. It was the doctor’s
belief that Mrs. Vemor had been
dead about two or three hours.
Those who examined the scene
of the accident believe that Mr.
Vernor must have gone to sleep.
His car began to leave the left side
of the road about 120 yards from
the concrete culvert, where it
struck the shoulder foundations
with great force, probably dam-
aging the front end of the car be-
yond repair.
Mrs. Vemor’s daughter, Mrs.
Clement A. Barton, was flying to
Fort Worth from New York City
by air; Mr. Vemor was believed
to have two boys in their teens.
Funeral arrangements are to be
handled by the Harvey Undertak-
ing firm of Ardmore, Oklahoma.
Red Cross Quota
Raised At Smith Bend
Smith Bend was the first com-
munity to turn in its quota on the
1950 Red Cross drive; Frank Pea-
cock was the community fund head
at Smith Bend. Womack lacks but
a few dollars of having its quota,
and the work is well underway
in Clifton on meeting the quota'.
The majority of the teams have
made their canvasses in Clifton and
if the remaining groups meet with
equal success Clifton’s quota will
be met in full.
It had been expected that other
community fund leaders would have
reported on their progress by Wed-
nesday morning of this week, but
P. L. Ashcraft, county fund chair-
man, had not heard from any of
the other groups.

of $5,000 from W. L. Moody Jr. for

authorized spending $50,000 or
more if needed to remodel the home,
employ a staff, and purchase fur-
niture.
Bosque County hopes the board
might locate one of the schools of
this type at Meridian, where spastic
children are receiving treatment
at the present time, and according
to Mrs. Lawrence Tarlton of Fort
Worth, chairman of the Board’s
committee on cerebral palsy, the
board also has under study plans
for another similar school.
The school will be used to treat
children who need specialized medi-
cal attention and other treatment
because of birth injuries or similar
factofs. The 51st Legislature regu-
lar session authorized $400,000 for
this type institution or institutions.
