TOMLINSON’S BEAUTY SHOP
IN NEW LOCATION
Mrs. Tomlinson’s Beauty Shop,
formerly located in the Hetherly
Hotel Building, has just been moved
to its new location in the old Cun-
ningham Sisters location, next door
to the Leroy Theatre. The building
has been completely remodeled and
divided into two parts, the west side
being occupied by Gartman’s Music

'This is an excellent location for
a beauty shop, being near the main
business section of the town and easi-
ly accessible to the general public.
Mrs. Tomlinson has used every means
possible to make the shop beauti-
ful, comfortable and serviceable, and
is ready to serve her customers in
the new location.

BUD’S GROCERY
Mrs. Ed Noyes was hostess at an
attractive party on Thursday after-
noon from 3 to 5, when the Woman’s
Council of the Christian Church ex-
tended a miscellaneous shower hon-
oring Mrs. Brown Cornett, a bride
of the month.
Autumn flowers were placed thru-
out the rooms with a vase of large
white chrysanthemums centering thfe
piano, in.the living room. The guests
were received by Mrs. Noyes and the
honoree. After every one had arriv-
ed, quilt scraps were passed with in-
structions to piece a block for a
friendship quilt. When these were
finished, the guests were invited to
the dining room where the gifts were
arrayed. Mrs. Cornett opened the
packages and in her quiet, sweet
manner thanked each and every one
for their lovely gifts.
A refreshment plate of sandwich-
es, cakes, salted nuts and coffee was
served the forty or more guests in
attendance.

HEAD OF PRISON
IS GRAVELY ILL
Huntsville, Nov. 14.—Dave Nelson,
in his fourteenth day as the new
manager of Texas’ vast prison sys-
tem, tonight lay near death of double
pneumonia.
One attending physician, who de-
clined to allow use of his name, said:
“If Mr. Nelson recovers it will be
a miracle—and I don’t believe in
miracles.”
Physicians said Nelson, resident of
Orange, had a week heart and added
“that is where pneumonia hits hard-
est.” The prison manager, stricken
only two days ago, ran a temperature
of 105 degrees today and was placed
under an oxygen tent rushed here
from Houston.
Nelson -v^as taken ill Tuesday at
Houston, where he attended a meet-
ing of prison farm managers. Suf-
fering with a severe cold and sneez-
ing spells, he hurried back here af-
ter also experiencing a slight heart
attack.
Yesterday his fever mounted to 101
degrees and early today he became
gravely ill. Dr. W. B. Veazey, pris-
on physician; Dr. E. W. Anderson,
former prison medical supervisor, and
Dr. S. M. Lister, Houston member
of the prison board, were attending
Nelson.
Two sons and his wife rushed here
to his bedside. His wife came from
Orange and one son from Texas A.
& M. College at Bryan.
Nelson succeeded Lee Simmons as
prison manager on Nov. 1 after the
former head had resigned. His resig-
nation brought a storm of protest.
Nelson had made only a few imme-
diate changes but had announced a
general policy of “no brutality to
prisoners.” He also planned an ex-
tensive rehabilitation plan involving
segregation of prisoners and had out-
lined a large scale plan of athletic
activities for all units of the system.
He planned to alio wprisoners to
play football for the first time in the
history of state penal institutions.

FOOTBALL GAME
We are not trying today to men-
tion the names of all who attended
the Fredericksburg-Lampasas foot-
ball game, because that would be an
almost impossible undertaking. Con-
sidering the way the town is desert-
ed, it looks as if it would be easier
to name those who stayed at home.
A holiday was declared at school to-
day so that every one who wished
might go to the game, and it seems
that the majority of the students took
advantage of the opportunity.

seed for this purpose? If you will
call me, I will be glad to come for
them and turn them lover to the
Highway Department.—Mrs. Norman

SILENT MAN OF BASEBALL
DIES OF HEART CLOT
Detroit, Nov. 13.—Frank J. Navin
died of a heart attack today, five
weeks after his Detroit Tigers grati-
fied the long-deferred ambition of his
life by winning the world baseball
championship.
He fell, unconscious, from his fa-
vorite riding horse at the Detroit
Riding and Hunt club, and died with-
out recovering consciousness. Coro-
ner Albert A. Hughes, after a post-
mortem examination, said stoppage of
the heart by a clot in an artery caused
death.
Close associates said the 64 year
old silent man of baseball, a power
for nearly three decades in the na-
tional game, had paid, almost liter-
ally, with his life for the one world
championship his baseball team won.
Five years ago, those friends dis-
closed today, his physicians told him
he must sell his baseball club and
shun all excitement if he wished to
prolong his life.
Not only did Navin refuse to heed
that advice, but he set out more reso-
lutely than ever to build a baseball
team that would be the peer of any
other.
His fortune was depleted by the
depression, but he borrowed $100,000
and bought Mickey Cochrane as man-
ager in the greatest gamble of his
career. That was at the close of the
1933 season.
A month and six days ago, the
Tigers climaxed two successful sea-
sons by defeating the Chicago Cubs
in the deciding game of the world
series.
