tint annual Upshur
Tripla Plays The rarest of base-
ball plays, the triple play, was
pulled off by three Bears Sunday
to unravel the I.eugue-leudlng
Marshall Brown's rally. The
browns jjot two men on base in the
5th and the third butter, Duve
Hush, hit a grounder \Q B„b Cul-
lms on 3rd base. Collins stepped on
the bait for the first out, fired to
Little Dutch Meyer on second for
No. 2 and Dutch whipped the ball
to Van Pelt for that big No. 3. The
entire play consumed less than
four seconds. Eagle Owner Dick
Burnett, visiting here for the
weekend, was outside the park at
the time the play was made. 'Tv*
still not seen a triple play like that.
Just my luck to be outside at the
time," he fumed. (The Bears rasslo
Longview tonight at 8 p. m. Last
two times the teams met there
were fisticuffs galore!)
Thumbs Down: Secy, of State
John Ben Shepperd turned thumbs
down on a chance to “have tea"
with the President. J. B. S. was to j
speak at a Citizenship meet in D.
C. but he had previously promised I
three graduating seniors 'the entire
class at Blum, Tex.' that he would
speak at their graduation. A family
reason also enters the pix . . .
Prank Shepperd and Bill Shepperd j
(John Ben's uncle and cousin who
are the school's trustee prexy and
member of the graduating class,
respectively) asked him to speak
mbnths ago. Seems olood is thicker
than the President's “tea.”

Census Endangers
Tyler Cop's Raise
TYLER. May 22 (INS'.—The
personnel of Tyler's police and
fire departments fear the result of
the current census.
The two departments face a $5
a month per person pay cut be-
cause Tyler didn't have the grow-
ing pains that were predicted.
Last Jan. 1 the personnel of
both departments were granted
pay boosts because the city fathers
figured the population as at least
40,001.
But Jerome Bishop, >1. strict
census manager, said preliminary
figures indicate the population at
only 38,500.
A state law set firemen and pol-
ice pay In cities of more than 40,-
000.

Few doctors con make the claim
that they have worked as oil field
roughnecks, mule skinners and
lumber mill laborers, blit Dr. Bain
Leokq has been all Uptae.
He worked his w»J) through
West Texas State College at Can-
yon by roughnecking in the Burk-
burnett oil boom, where he later
opened his practice as a doctor
following his graduation from the
University of Texas and the Medi-
cal Branch in Galveston.
Born in Indian Territory, near
what is now Ardmore. Okluhomu,
he has spenj most of his life in
Texas. His father, a cotton buyer,
was on temporary assignment to
Indian Territory in 1899 and Dr.
Leake was born before the family
returned to Texas.
Dr. l,eake grew up in Mobectie,
a West Texas trading post which
had grown up around an old In-
dian fort. Mobeetie, an Indian
word, means "sweet water." The
town is the oldest in Texas, Dr.
Leake says.
Among other trades which he
has pursued is the newspaper
business. He served as a “printer’s
devil" while he was eleven years
old.
"The boss printer was making
a whale of a salary in my young
eyes," Dr. Leake said. "Ho was
drawing $40 a month. I was mak-
ing $1.50 a week and to me that
$40 was a pile of money."
The shop used an old gasoline-
powered press, and young Bain's
job included a turn at running the
press. However, he says, they cut
off th ' power and let him run it
manually because they were
afraid be might got hurt with the
press running at full speed.
Dr. Leake came to Gladcwater
on temporary assignment for an
oil company in July of 1931 when
the oil boom was opening up here.
He liked the town at first sight
and opened an office for practice.
Most of his early patients were
victims of shootings and violence
as well as roughnecks hurt In the
fields.
His present clinic building and
residence Is on property once
owned by Bobby Munziel who was
responsible for bringing In one of
the first oil wells in Gladcwater.
Dr. Leake’s family consists of
his wife Pearl, a daughter, Mrs.
C. E. Senning of Austin and a de-
ceased son, Bain, Jr., who died in
the service of his country during
World War II.
Dr. Leake has been a Rotarian
since 1928 and is a member of the
Methodist Church, the Chamber
of Commerce here, and the Ma-
sonic Lodge.
Asked about his polities he said,
“I’m a Democrat. Perhaps a con-
fused Democrat would be a better
way to put It."
