Kermit Man
Robbed of $80
By Hitchhikers
Two hitchhikers robbed Ed
Dosh of 146 Jackson Street,
Kermit, of his billfold contain-
ing about $80 Monday night, took
his car, and left him stranded
in Odessa. The victim told of-
ficers he was held at gunpoint
for 50 minutes.
Dosh told officers he stopped
for the hitchhikers at the north
edge of Monahans about 10:30
p.m., Monday. After riding to-
ward Kermit about four miles,
one of the men accosted him
with a revolver and began giv-
ing orders to turn the car
around.
Dosh retraced the route of
the ride at gunpoint. He said
they made him drive back to
Monahans and turn at Highway
30 toward Odessa. The pair
forced him to stop at the Sand-
hills State P.ark, where they
took his billfold. One of the men
took the wheel of the car and
drove to Odessa, where he was
released, and the men drove
away in his car.
The car was later found aban-
doned in Odessa.
Dosh reported the robbery to
Sctor County officials about
3:10 a.m. Tuesday, after walk-
ng from the eastern edge of
the city to the sheriffs office.
Ward County Sheriff’s Depart-
ment joined the investigation of
the robbery Tuesday and
authorities throughout Texas
were alerted to be on the look-
out for the pair.
One of the men was de-
scribed as between 25 and 30
years old; about 5 feet, 10 inch-
es tall; weight about 150 pounds
with dark hair. The other was
near 40 years old, about 5 feet,
8 inches tall, and weighed about
140 pounds.

FAULTY THERMOSTAT
CAUSES FIRE IN STOVE
A thermostat in a gas kitchen
stove broke and the gas erupted
like a torch. However, Mrs.
Billie Jean Westmoreland called
Kermit firemen before fire had
a chance to damage her home
at 703 Underwood Tuesday
about 12:53 p.m.
“If I could have found a
wrench, I would have had the
gas turned off,” the housewife
said.
However, stove, house and a
chicken being prepared in the
oven escaped damage.

County Farmers, Ranchers To Elect ASC Committee
Farmers and ranchers of
Winkler County are urged to
take part in the election of their
County ASC committee, which
will be held on Tuesday, Sept.
KJ.
An announcement by Jack W.
Linebery, Kermit, county agri-
cultural stabilization and con-
servation committee chairman,
points out that this annual elec-
tion is one in which all eligible
farmers and ranchers should
feel a duty to participate. Be-
cause of the vital part that the
ASC county committee plays in
the farming and ranching af-
fairs of the county, it is im-
portant that each farmer and
rancher give serious consider-
ation to the men elected to these
posts.
The county ASC committee to
be elected consists of three reg-
ular members and two alter-
nates.
The following slate of nomi-
nees for the 1964 ASC county
committee has been released:
Jack W. Linebery of Kermit;
Ferral M. Roark of Kermit;
Mrs. Carolyn.Ross of Andrews;
James M. Waddell Jr. of No-
trees; John B. Walton Jr. of
Kermit; and Guy Witt of Wink.
Any person may vote in the
county election who is of legal
voting age, who has an interest
in a farm or ranch as an own-
er, tenant or sharecropper, and
who is eligible to participate in
any of the farm programs ad-
ministered by the committee.
Also, any person not of legal
voting age, but who is in charge
of the supervision and conduct
of the operations on an entire
farm or ranch, is eligible to
vote. In the case of joint owner-
ship by two or more individuals,
Wink Chapter
Eastern Star
Plans Hat Party
Everyone enjoys a party,
whether it’s a birthday, anni-
versary or just any excuse to
gather people together for a
celebration, but when you get a
group of women together for a
hat party, that is enjoyment in
the purest form.
That is the kind of party
women of Wink Chapter of the
Eastern Star are giving Satur-
day, Aug. 31, at Wink Communi-
ty Center, from 9:30 a.m. until
5:30 p.m.
They have ordered over 200
brand new hats, all in the sea-
son’s newest styles and featur-
ing the colors decreed by hat
designers to be the stunning
shades for the coming fall. And
best of all, the price of these
hats is one which will please
a wife’s fashion sense without
offending a husband’s pocket-
book.
Eastern Star members are is-
suing a blanket invitation to all
women throughout the Wink
area to attend the Hat Party
and try on hats to their heart’s
content. It’s the best way, they
say, to jerk one out of the
end-of-summer doldrums and get
rid of those back-to-school jit-
ters.
each is an eligible voter. ■
There are some limitations on
voting. Each voter is entitled to
only one vote on any one ballot.
Voting by proxy is not permit-
ted. In the case of partnership
farms or ranches, the vote may
be cast by either partner, and
a corporation’s vote may be cast and to hold office will be de-itee, subject to appeal to the
by any authorized officer of the
corporation.
Questions on eligibility to vote
termined by the county commit- state committee.

PARK NAMED FOR BOY
POTAGE, Ind. — Criticism
last year by Sam Perry, 14, of
the town board at Potage, for
failure to develop a park system
has paid off. Not only did the
board allocate $2,000 for the
park, but it also named it Sam
Perry Park.
