WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.—The
huge job of shifting the recovery ad-
ministration from an emergency to
a permanent organization has been
begun by Hugh S. Johnson, the ad-
ministrator.
Looking forward to the time when
he hopes to have all industry operat-
ing under codes of fair competition,
Johnson is endeavoring to work out
a plan for self-regulation of indus-
try with the least governmental in-
terference consonant with protection
of the public interests.
Thomas S. Hammond, executive di-
rector of the president’s emergency
^e-employment campaign and until
mid-summer a prominent Illinois
manufacturer, was reported tonight
to be drafting the proposed perma-
nent setup of the NRA at the request
of Johnson.
It was emphasized, however, that
the present outline under which in-
dustry would be given a thorough-
going chance to run its own'affairs
had not yet been approved by the
cabinet advisory board headed by
Secretary Roper. However, the board
has discussed a similar set-up with
the administrator.
Besides the staff reorganization,
there also is under way an examina-
tion of existing codes for revision
of weak spots and merger wherever
possible of as many additional indus-
tries as possible under master codes.
This merging into as few charters
as possible constitutes the ‘heart of the
proposed permanent setup of the
NRA as now proposed by Hammond
and those assisting him.

LET’S HAVE A PEP SQUAD
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.—Presi-
dent Roosevelt tocfciy ordered the
purchase of surplus foodstuffs and
staples by the government to be turn-
ed over for relief work.
The program called for federal
purchase of surplus beef, dairy and
poultry products, cotton and cotton
seed, among other things.
A rough estimate places the amount
of purchases at about $75,000,000.
The government will buy at market
price.
Personally announcing this gigan-
tic proposal to furnish the wasting
surpluses to needy persons, Mr. Roose-
velt emphasized its two-fold object:
First, to improve relief particular-
ly in those areas where he considers
present relief to be totally inade-
quate.
Second, to aid in reducing surplus-
es and thereby stabilize markets.
The cotton to be bought will be
manufactured into cloth.
The undertaking will be directed
by the administrators of federal re-
lief and of the agriculture adjust-
ment act.
The funds will come from the de-
partment of agriculture and from the
federal relief admisistration.

Job Printing
In the history of Lampasas high
school there is . shown a number of
splendid football teams and also pep
squads. In the past few years the
football squad has contributed its
part to the history of the school, but
has the student body done its part
of the boosting?
The failure to arouse enthusiasm
and school spirit is not the fault of
the yell leaders but is the fault of the
student body. Do you expect the
town to be interested in your school
activities when you, yourself, are not ?
The first football game is to be play-
ed here "with Belton, Sept. 29. If 30
boys and girls would represent the
student body in uniforms as a pep
squad, don’t you think the players
would fight harder to win and show
more spirit if they thought the school
was backing them.
Let’s have a pep squad. Girls and
boys* both and in unfform.

A farmer boy wants to be a school
teacher.
A teacher would like to be an
editor.
An editor hopes to become a bank-
er.
A banker plans to become a trust
magnate, and a trust magnate hopes
some day to own a farm and have
some chickens.
Thus the cycle is made complete
and the end is the beginning.

He only weighs 185 pounds in a foot-
ball uniform.
They say dynamite comes in small
packages. That is tjhe truth because
we have 114 pounds of “Dynamite”
Burns playing in the backfield again
this year.
The spirit of the team rides with
the ever cheerful T. J. Childers, cap-
tain and right guard, whose dogged
determination to win is felt by all of
the squad.
A probable line-up may be stated
as follows: Ends, Greeson and Ham-
mett; tackles, Berry and J. or L.
Landrum; guards, Childers, (Capt.)
and Dickason or Dickens; center,
Tumlinson or F. Dickason. The back-
field: Brown, quarter; Burns and Per-
ry, halves; Cowan, fullback.
Good news! New jerseys and hel-
mets have been provided for this
year’s team. The jerseys are dark
blue with white letters on the front
and back and a white stripe on the
shoulders. The team will appear in
their new equipment at the first game
against Belton.

STUDENT BODY ELECTS
BAILEY AND RAWLS
YELL LEADERS
The age-old game of marbles is at
its height in grammar school this
year. Large and small boys can be
seen with dirty hands and ragged
knees. They don’t seem to mind the
dirt as long as they can play this
exciting game.
They seem to go in groups and
are scattered from one end of the
school yard to the other. The best
“shooters” usually are seen playing
together and then the next best
“shooters” and so on down to those
who are so small that they can’t
play.
Heated arguments are heard and
fights frequently occur, but outside
of this the games are very interest-
ing as well as amusing.
say such nice things to me. I bet
you don’t say them to any other girl
do you? Well let me tell you. One
day Lurline Creekmore had lost all
interest in school. Isn’t that awful ?
And the next day just one thing hap-
pened and she’s o. k. now. Guess
what? A boy entered school, isn’t
that just too silly, what’s in a little
town like Kempner could interest her
so?
I want to tell you something. The
other day a girl pulled a joke on me.
Was I embarrassed, was I burnt up ?
I was walking to school with L-ynette
Walker and all of a sudden she stop-
ped and said, “This is the end!” Well
thinking she was thinking suicide I
tried to console her, then she laugh-
ed and said, “Don’t be dumb I mean
this is the end of the sidewalk.
And so ends my chatter for this

WATERING THE COW
PERS; ISN’T IT THE TRUTH?
That:
the man who gets the fewest letters
complains loudest about the manage-
ment of the postoffice.
the man who finds the most fault
with his preacher pays the least to-
ward his salary.
the man who has the most trouble
with his neighbor is the meanest
neighbor.
the man who has the least sense is
the most conceited. '
the man without any children has
the best theory for bringing them up.
the bachelor knows the best ways
for managing a wife.
and that the man who borrows his
neighbor’s paper is the worst critic
the paper has.
“The Crane.”
DRAMATIC CLUB ORGANIZED
The' old Jersey cow that was stak-
ed at the north side of the football
grounds got watered well Wednes-
day afternoon.
The man who was watering the
grass turned^ the spray on the old
cow and she seemingly enjoyed the
shower. She flopped her ears, switch-
ed her tail and did a little charleston.
By accident she happened to get tang-
led in her chain which ended the little
dance. After she got untangled she
began grazing like a “contented cow.”
Possibly she had some forethought
that a good watering would bring
much “carnation milk.” Possibly
that’s why she grazed contentedly.
Billy Bean was elected president
when the dramatic club organized
Tuesday, Sept. 19. The other offi-
cers were: Annette Roberts, vice
president; Bob Yarbrough, secretary-
treasurer, and Orville Rush, chair-
man of social committee.
Members of the club are: Lurline
Creekmore, Annette Roberts, Floy
Humphries, Thais Higgins, iMary
Kathryn Walker, Jessie Standard,
Billy Bean, Marie Yarbrough, Orville

It’s a good thing that there is no
fair telling tales out of school be-
cause I have seen plenty of, this sum-
mer. Now that school has stai'ted
maybe it is a good time to ask some
question, so here goes.
Whose necklace and ring is Betty
McCrea wearing.
Frankie Berry had a thrill Thurs-
day at noon—why? ,
Why were Lamar Hocker and Kittie
West Word seen riding around to-
gether ?
Why did W. H. Berry hand in Anna
Ruth Pharr’s paper Thursday?
Orville Rush seems so lonely this
year. Why ?
Who is the freshman Doc Lindsey
has been trying to flirt with?
Why have so many freshmen girls
proposed to the boys since school
started ?
Anyone who can answer these
questions please write the answer to
“The Alley Cat” in care of the “Bad-
ger.”

BOOST FRESHMEN
Ellen Mae Bailey, senior, and Dor-

elected leaders of the pep squad for
1933-34 Friday, Sept. 22. Other can-

Ellen Mae and Dorothy Delle have
shown that they know how to yell
and to lead too, and both promise a

IMPORTANT
The upper classmen seem to think
that the frelhmen and sophomores
of 1933-34 are unusually small.
After talking with a few freshmen,
sophomores and will-be freshmen it
is vei’y evident that although they are
small physically they are well devel-
oped mentally. These youngsters:
are very brilliant and are certainly J
not unwilling to try to adjust them-
selves to high school life.
So, upper classmen, let’s stop look-
ing to see how small these freshmen
are. Let’s see how large we can
help them to become, in order that
they might carry on after our high
school days have passed.
