Want done with them. Also I
believe we could improve our
city officials if we talked to
them. We could clean up our
town and improve it so it will be
a better place for OUR children
someday.”
BILLY MORTON: “Nothing,
because the people on the city
council don’t want anything bet-
ter. They had an offer to put an
oil refinery in Rule but the city
council voted it out. They don’t
want anything to bring more
business and families.”
NAN JONES: “We all gripe
about Rule, but it is basically a
good town. One thing that the
people of Rule could do to make
it better is provide something
for the teenagers to do. Every-
one wonders why we run around
town all the time, but there is
no place for us to go. If we could
get rid of a city ordinance
against dances, and have some-
place to go, and if the people
wouldn’t gossip so much about
everything, more kids might
come back and make Rule their
home.”
TOMMY ANDERS: “I think
the people of Rule should work
more for the kids. This place
is for old people. The kids don’t
have any place to go and what-
ever they do, there is some city
ordinance against it. (We can’t
evfcn 'pop fire crackers down
town. Even when there is no one
there but us). And another thing,
I’m not the best driver in the
world, but the old people in
this town are alot worse drivers
than we are. I think the kids of
Rule should get a little more
consideration, because we de-
serve it!”
SUSAN MAY: “Everyone
needs to work together more,
not leave everything up to just
a few individuals. Everyone
tries to let somebody else do
his work for him because he
thinks he isn’t important
enough. Each individual has a
responsibility whether it is just
doing his part by not littering
or whether he is the mayor. I
think the people of Rule should
support things more than they
do. All it takes is a little
cooperation and work from
everybody to get a lot of good
things done.”
YVONNE ROSS: “One thing
the people of Rule could do to
make this a better city, would
be for all of the people to mind
their own business, and not be
so quick to judge and to put
people down. They could have
more recreations or youth cen-
ters for the young people in-
stead of forbidding dances,
roller rinks etc. They could
have better law enforcement to
make kids and adults drive bet-
ter and stay out of trouble.”
BEVERLY SMITH: “I’m sure
there are a lot of things we
could do to improve this dirty
looking place. For one thing I
think it looks dirty and trashy.
We need to keep our streets
clean or at least try to. There
is too much gossip to suit me.
You can’t even leave town or
even take a breath that the
people don’t know about it. Talk
Rifes Held
Monday For
B. F. Worley
Benjamin Franklin Worley,
82, died at about 12:30 a.m.
Sunday in the Clearview Lodge
in Haskell, where he had been a
patient the past week.
Services were held at 2 p.m.
Monday at the First Baptist
Church in Rochester. Burial
was in Rochester Cemetery un-
der direction of Smith Funeral
Home.
Born July 5, 1885, in Dallas
County, he moved to Haskell
County in 1905 and married Ber-
tha Allen September 19, 1909, in
Rochester. He was a retired
farmer and a member of the
Baptist Church.
Survivors include his wife;
four sons, Homer of Olton, Len-
nis of Knox City, Ray of Fort
Walton, Fla., and Wayne of
Brownwood; five daughters,
Mrs. Mary Hanson of Monahans,
Mrs. Mabel Sawyers of Old
Glory, Mrs. Geraldine Garner
of Iraan, Mrs. Christine Hat-
field of Earth and Mrs. Faye
McBroom of Brady; 28 grand-
children and 13 great-grand-
children; one brother, Zack of
Houston; one sister, Mrs. Hat-
tie North of Weatherford.
Pallbearers were Paul Al-
len, Morris Garner, Raymond
Couch, Wayman McBroom, Pete
Tanner and Judge Beverly Ro-
berson.
spreads over this town like a
grass fire.”
We believe that the people of
Rule should care more about
what is really happening, that
our town looks dirty, that the
people gossip too much, that
there is nothing for teen-agers
to do, and we drive as good
as everybody else and better
than some. Ask yourself one
question. Are we right?

Lott and Gary Cox each made
10 to make four of the five
starters scoring in double
figures.
The Bobcats are now 6-0 in
District competition. They have
attempted 395 shots and made
176 for 45% of their field goals,
while the opponents have netted
68 out of 250 for 27%. For free
throws, they have hit 72 out of
125 for 58% and the opposition
47%. The Bobcats have made a
total of 424 points, averaging
70.7 per game, while the other
teams have made 189, averaging
31.5 per game. With statistics
like these, you know Rule has
to have the greatest team ever.
There are two home games
this week. Tuesday, January 23
the Bobcats will play Old Glory,
and Friday, January 26, they
will meet O’Brien. COME AND
SUPPORT YOUR TEAM!

Senator Ratliff To Serve
On Council's Committee
Lieutenant Governor Preston
Smith today named Senator Da-
vid Ratliff of Stamford to serve
on the Texas Legislative Coun-
cil’s committee to study the
feasibility of establishing and
operating an academy of science
in crime prevention and de-
tection. The study was re-
quested by resolution (H.S.R.
37) adopted during the regular
session of the 60th Legislature.
Under terms of the resolu-
tion, the Texas Legislative
Council is requested to study
the desirability and practical-
ity of establishing and main-
taining at state expense an aca-
demy dedicated to the training
Texas Draft
Delinquency
Is On Increase
The number of draft'delin-
quency in Texas increased from
959 to 1,028 in the last quarter
of 1967, Colonel Morris S.
Schwartz, state Selective Ser-
vice director, said here Thurs-
day.
But the number of these cases
involving failure to report for
induction into the military ser-
vice decreased from 547 to 511,
the summary of delinquencies to
the director of Selective Ser-
vice showed.
Analysis of the reports from
the state’s 155 draft boards re-
vealed that 569 men were 'crime prevention and detection
of law enforcement officials at
all levels of government. The
resolution also asks that the
Council examine the possibil-
ities of operating such an aca-
demy in conjunction with one
or more of the state-supported
institutions of higher learning
in Texas. The Texas Depart-
ment of Public Safety and the
Coordinating Board, Texas Col-
lege and University System,
are authorized to cooperate with,
the Council during the course of
the study.
Ratliff, a public relations
counselor, has served in the
Texas Senate since 1955 and,
prior to that, was a member
of the House of Representa-
tives for two terms. In an-
nouncing his appointment, the
Lieutenant governor com-
mented that Senator Ratliff is
highly knowledgeable on the
subject under study. In addition
to his membership on the Coun-
cil, considered the research
arm of the Legislature, he is
presently chairman of Senate
standing committees on La-
bor and Management Rela-
tions and Oil and Gas, and is
a member of 13 other standing
committees. He is also a mem-
ber of four special interim
committees, including the
Senate General Investigating
Committee.
Others appointed by the Lieu-
tenant Governor to the Council’s
committee to study the feasi-
bility of establishing and opera-
ting an academy of science in
listed as having be^n reported
to United States attorneys for
various failures to copply with
the draft law and it:\ regula-
tions. All these were not re-
ported in the final quarter of
1967, as the list is cumulative.
A total of 889 names was
on the delinquent lists' from
Houston-Baytown, Dallas, and
San Antonio, with 321 of these
cases having been referred to
federal attorneys. 1 1

tions define a “ delinquent!” as
