It goes without saying that
flic ink Dropper congratulates
(lie Cuh football team for their
District title. You may remem-
ber that this writer missed the
first two season games while in
the hospital for surgery, but
we predicted the Cubs would not
kise another season game as long
ss wc were in attendance at the
games. That is one prediction
we made that came true. So if
this sports fan and deer hunter j furnished by the post,
(haven't scored yet) doesn’t got I ‘
snow before Friday, we’ll be in
Georgetown come kick-off time.
Wc are also pleased to o'fer
our congratulations !o our neigh-
boring Valley Mills Eagles grid-
siers for their successful district
title.
They'll be passing through Clif-
ton Friday on their way to Cle-
burne to do' battle with lhc
slate-ranked Crow.ey eleven, and
we wish the Eagles all the best.
