cord to announce his candi-

Democratic primaries.
In his announcement, the
sheriff made the following
statement to the voters:
“I hereby announce my can-
didacy for re-election as sheriff
of Fayette county. It has been
a pleasure and honor during
the past five years in serving
and working with the good
people of this county as your
sheriff. Crime is definitely on
the increase everywhere, and
we are on our toes all the
time trying to figure when and
where the criminals will hit in
our county next. However, I
have a good staff of deputies
who work long hours, and we*
are always ready and willing
to go on any kind of calhto
protect the lives and property
of the citizens of Fayette coun-
ty; by this we have managed
to keep the crime to a mini-
mum in our county.
“None of us are perfect and,
of course, there are a few min-
or cases that have gone un-
solved, but we try to do our
very best. However, I am al-
ways willing to listen to any
suggestions that might per-
tain to the betterment of our
law enforcement program.
“I want to again express my
thanks to my many frietals for
providing us with our radio
hookup. It has more than paid
for itself in many ways. I am
sure that no police or sheriff’s
department can properly oper-
ate without a radio system in
trying to cope with the modern
day criminals. I certainly ap-
preciate your help and sup-
port in the past and I sincerely
ask and solicit the vote and
support of everyone' in the
July primary election.
“T. J. Flournoy."

kum and La Grange.
Schedule of play will be
published in the near future,

LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL HERE
RECEIVES STRONG BACKING
Little League baseball is de-
finitely in for a great season
here, judging from the reac-
tion of the people of this area
thus far, it was revealed Fri-
day afternoon at a parley of
executives of the little loop-
»*
ers.
The Little League needed
four complete sets of uniforms
for the youngsters, three for
Little Leaguers and one for
the Teen-agers. There wasn’t
any waiting around for action.
In atomic fashion, Brasher
Motor Company, the La
Grange State Bank, Morgan
Lumber Company of Plum,
and Western Auto Associate
Store responded. The First
ously provided suits for one
of the Little League nines,
thereby “rounding out” the
needed five units.
In addition to the donation
of the suits for the five teams,
U. S. cash has been donated,
exact amount of which will be
announced in the immediate
future. This phase of operation
has been in charge of Jake
Palmer, feed man and civic
enthusiast who, although not

Scout Camporee
Draws 400; La Grange
Boys Win Two Places
A Fayette County Boy
Scout Camporee was enWusi-
astically staged Friday and
Saturday at the swank Oscar
Wolter j Ranch three miles
from Schulenburg, the event
attracting Scouts from High
Hill, Flatonia, La Grange and
Schulenburg, it is reported by
Howard Law, assistant scout-
master here.
From La Grange, a total of
20 senior Scouts attended and
on Friday night, on the occa-
sion of a Camp Fire Program,
all of the La Grange Cub
Scouts, under direction of C.
H. Griffin, were also in at-
tendance. More than 400 were
present for this event, Mr.
Law said.
La Grange’s portion of this
phase of activity was a “base-
ball skit” presented by Jackie
Schwake and Ed Weeren.
Field events were staged
during the two-day camporee,
including contests in signaling,
wood chopping, fire building,
a compass course, and flint and
steel fire building contests.
Twelve patrols competed in-
cluding two from La Grange.
The Apache Patrol, whose
leader is Billy Darilek, placed
third in total points for all
contests, and the Cuckoo
PatroJ, led by Moise Lauter-
stein, placed fourth.
One of the most enjoyable
highlights of the camporee was
the unusually efficient fishing
exploits of the Scouts Mr. Law
reported that all of the lads
had good luck fishing, both in
Mr. Wolters’ big tank and in
the adjacent creek.
The overall description of
the entire camporee was that
all of the Scouts and their
leaders had a great time.
