LA GRANGE, TEXAS,
TUESDAY, MARCH 18, 1952
NUMBER 40
LOCAL LEGION
ANGLES FOR
TWO EVENTS
Wants To Be Site
For Fall Meeting
And Skat Tourney
La Grange’s American Le-
gion post set its sights on two
major events to be staged this
year, when it met in monthly
session Thursday night.
Representatives of the post,
attending the 9th district con-
vention at Moulton on May 4,
will invite the fall district
meeting to La Grange.
Also, -efforts will be made
to have the state Skat Con-
gress use the Legion’s facili-
ties for its August tournament.
The two events will be
sought for dual reasons. The
post would like to have the
congenial groups which gath-
er on these occasions, and it
can well use the income that
would accure in order to pay
on its indebtedness.
Upon adjournment the
members joined with the
Ladies Auxiliary in a birthday
party. The ladies provided the
food and the men the refresh-
ments to make the evening one
of pleasant sociability.

recorded its third case of a
rabid fox since the initial one
which was killed on February
26 at Winchester, when Arnold
Zapalac, Fayetteville area
farmer, celebrated his 25th
birthday by fighting a mad
fox. armed only with an axe.
Without further ado, let it
be said that Mr. Zapalac was
the winner—and is mighty
glad that he happened to have
an axe with him when the
fox attacked.
Mr. Zapalac, who is as yet
unmarried and who farms at
Rek’s Hill, said that Thursday
morning at about 8:30, a fox
began attacking his cattle,
after which the animal, obvi-
his dog. Third on the list was
Mr. Zapalac himself who pro-
tected himself with an axe and
in the fight that followed, the
farmer killed the fox without
suffering any personal injury.
Mr. Zapalac reported the in-
cident to Justice of the Peace
Edward L. Hruska at Fayette-
ville who recommended that
the animal’s head be sent to
Austin for a rabies examina-
tion. Although the final report
Nearly 700 Dogs
Vaccinated To Date
A total of 692 Fayette coun-
ty canines have been vaccin-
ated up to the present time, it
was reported here Monday
morning by Dr. F. L. Gunn.
Friday, he innoculated 12
dogs at Waldeck and 12 at
Nechanitz.
It is quite probable that
other areas in the county will
be selected as sites for future
vaccination of dogs; however,
dates, places, and times will
be announced later by Dr.
Gunn.

all or part of the Day of Re-
collection sponsored by Chrom-
cik council, Knights of Colum-

fortitude in everyday living.
The Rev. Edward J. Jansky,

the annual event, assisted. The
Plum ladies served breakfast
and dinner.
from Austin hasn’t been re-
ceived, all odds favor the be-
lief that the fox was mad since
veteran fox-men and fox-hunt-
ers are unanimous in saying
that a fox attacks only when
rabid.
Hoping to save his dog from
possible rabies, Mr. Zapalac
brought the canine in for vac-
cination here Thursday after-
noon by Dr. F. L. Gunn, local
veterinarian.
Meanwhile, the program of
dog vaccinations continues by
Dr. F. L. Gunn throughout the
county as a defensive measure
against rabies, and the county
is continuing to pay bounties
for the slaying of foxes, crows,
wolves and bobcats.
Scouts Cancel
Week-end Outing
.Rabid foxes, three of which
have been killed in Fayette
county since the plague be-
gan, are also affecting the acti-
vities of local Boy Scouts, in
addition to causing concern to
farmers and ranchers of the
county who are usually armed,
one way or another, when
they leave their homes nowa-
days.
The Scouts, who had plan-
ned a week-end overnight
hike, cancelled the projected
activity because of the danger
of rabid foxes on the lose, it is
reported by Judge Henry J.
Schovajsa, scoutmaster.
The event may be held at a
later date, he indicated.

FAYETTE ELECTRIC CO-OP
SENDS 5 TO CHICAGO MEET
Five representatives of the
Fayette Electric Co-operative
returned to La Grange Friday
after attending the convention
of the National Rural Electric
Co-operative association in-
Chicago, Monday through
Thursday.
Over 4000 delegates, repre-
senting 900 electic co-ops in
every state in the union, were
present to get first hand infor-
mation on a myriad of matters
of interest to their organiza-
tions. Panel meetings, in
which various experiences and
problems were discussed and
ideas interchanged, offered one
of the finest features of the an-
nual meeting.
Outside of the shortage of
materials which faces all co-
ops as well as the electrical in-
dustry in general, the chief
concern voiced at the conven-
tion was the general shortage
of power because of rapidly in-
reasing demands, John F.
Luecke, manager for the Fay-
ette co-op, said in commenting
on the meeting.
“Fortunately, we, in this
part of the country, are not
troubled with this shortage,”
he declared, “but should some
major industrial development
occur in our area, we might
find ourselves in the same si-
tuation.”
Tie-ins with other systems
to help each other in case of
power shortages was one of
the items discussed. Develop-
ment of further power sources
was another.
Attending the convention
with Mr. Luecke were L. A.
Giese, president, C. M. Janda,
secretary, and Directors Joe
Matocha and John Migl.
The information gained is
such that is not available from
any other source and is essen-
tial to the proper operation of
a business such as the co-op I
has grown to b«, the manager ^
stated. It was time and effort]
well spent, he added.

2 Week-End Wrecks
Two traffic accidents marred
the serenity of vehicular tran-
sportation in Fayette county^
it was reported here Monday
morning by James spertdfcr,'
State Highway Patrolman, who
investigated.
In collision Saturday night
at 8:15 were a 1937 Ford pick-
up driven by Willie Lee

Plymouth coupe operated by
Richard Schmidt, Camp Hood
soldier, 3 miles north of Fla-
tonia on FM Road 154. Both
cars were damaged greatly,
Patrolman Spencer said.
Adams was charged with
“failure to yield one-half the
road."
Sunday afternoon at 2 o’-
clock, almost on the Fayette-
Bastrop county line, automo-
biles driven by Richard Roach
of Austin and Leo Evanicky
of Smithville were in collision
on State Highway 71. Roach,
driving a 1949 Chevrolet, was
eastbound and collided with
Evanicky’s 1937 Cherolet as
the latter moved his car out
from a side country road onto
the State highway.
Both of the automobiles were
damaged extensively, Patrol-
man Spencer said.
