YULE PLAY
PROVES BIG
EVENT HERE
Choir Of 200 Boys
And Girls Among
Features Of Night
A virtual capacity crowd
here Monday night viewed and
enjoyed a delightful presenta-
tion of the Christmas story,
staged by students of Hermes
Elementary school in the La
Grange High gymnasium.
Approximately 250 students
lent their talents in making
the event a success, including
a versatile choir of approxi-
mately 200 young voices, un-
der direction of Miss Martha
Helen Card, faculty member.
Accompanist was Mrs. Wnt.
Feller of Warrenton.
A trio of methods were
utilized in making the story of
Christmas vivid. Abetting the
reading of the Biblical story,
paralleling scenes were pre-
sented on the stage in panto-
mime, backgrounded by ap-
propriate carols from the
mammoth, youthful choir,
•whose carols were skillfully
directed and excellently pre-
sented.
Among the choir’s featured
vocalists were Shirley Giesber
and Walter Schaefer and as
Kings, Frank Hagler, Marvin
Wessels, Edward Matocha,
Glenn Rohde, William Futsch-
ik and Bill Williams. Young
Miss Rose Marie Malcher's
presentation of “The First
Noel” was superbly offered.
Others in the cast of charac-
ters were: Eugene Niemeyer
as the prophet; Marilyn Giese
as Mary; Royce Raschke as
Joseph; Billie Ruth Futschik
as Gabriel. “The Three Wise
Men” were portrayed by

Big Sewage Plant, Ready In February set HIGH FOR
YEAR OF ’53
Minus ostentation but never-
theless progressing smoothly
and efficiently day by day, La
Grange is having added to it a
$67,078.73 structure which,
when completed, will be one
of the most modern of its kind
and will provide this city with
a long-needed, vital improve-
ment.
Located in southwestern La
Grange, at the end of a wide,
well graded street, the new
“addition" to the town is a
super sewage treatment plant,
work on which began on Sep-
tember 4 and work on which is
hoped to be completed by mid-
February by Clyde Smith of
Austin, successful bidder for
construction of the project.
Engineer for the big pro-
ject is R. E. Schiller, a veteran
in his field of work and former
state resident engineer for
Fayette and Colorado counties
for nearly 20 years. Mr. Schil-
ler, who served as county en-
gineer for about six years
prior to his two decades as
Car Inspection
Law Still In Force
state resident engineer, drew
the plans for the huge new
plant and is supervising its
construction. The site is a two
and two-tenths acre tract
.which was purchased by the
city for that purpose.
Mr. Sciller estimates that
the new facilities, when placed
into operation, would take
care of the needs of between
4,500 to 5,000 persons. In view
of the population trend here
during the past 50 years, it
appears logical that the plant
will be more than adequate
for another half-century.
An explanation of the pro-
cess involved by the new plant
is not as simple as might ap-
pear. The process used by the
“old plant" might be, but this
“new deal,” expected to cost
about $80,000 when all f(nal
improvements have bieen
made by the city after the
contractor has finished his
part of the contract, is just a
bit involved.
The “A-B-C’s" involved
seem to be as follows, an in-
terview with Mr. Schiller re-
veals.
First of all, there is to be
erected what is known as a
“lift station,” a 14 by W tile
building which will house the
electrical equipment and the
motors to lift sewage fr<*n the
old sewer line, approximately
30 feet below, to the new
“double Imhoff settling tank.”

automatically and capable of

John Hollyfield, assistant
chief of the car inspection di-

of public safety, said Wednes-
day any car driven past a

yellow inspection sticks
firmly affixed to the wind-
shield.
“We intend to enforce the
law,” he said.
The law instructs tax col-
lectors to refuse license plates
for uninspected cars and for
cars with inspection certifi-
cates more than a year old.
Hollyfield noted, however,
that there is apparently no
,penalty for tax collectors who
don’t follow the law.
He said plans are being
made to ask the next legisla-
ture to remove the inspection’s
tie-in with license plates and
leave enforcement entirely to
law enforcement officers.

Milk Producers
Enjoined From
Fixing Prices
Austin, Dec. 23—The South
Texas Milk Producers Assn,
and six Houston dairies were
permanently enjoined Tues-
day from fixing or maintain-
ing milk prices.
Dist. Judge Charles O. Betts
granted the injunction asked
in an anti-trust suit brought
by the state in 1948. It re-
placed a temporary injunction
he granted in October, 1948.
The injunction prohibits the
association and dairies from
entering into an agreement to
fix or maintain prices or pre-
clude a distributor from pur-
chasing Grade A milk or fluid
milk from any milk producer
who is not a member of the
association.
The defendants were ordered
to pay the state $22,500.
Betts, however, said “identi-
cal or substantially identical
price charges . . . occurring
simultaneously" are not a com-
bination in violation of Texas’
anti-trust laws. He said the
“public interest” did not re-
quire him to forfeit the char-
ter or permit to do business
of any of the defendants.
The dairies involved were

those confined to their homes,
under sponsorship of the La

Fifteen lads and lassies,
chosen from the personnel of

band, under direction of Er-

singing of appropriate Christ-

Many Beautiful
Decorations Shown;
Winners Listed
Residential La Grange this
year really “dressed up” for
Christmas.
Outdoor decorations, color-
ful lights and indoor scenes
were to be found in every
part of town.
They varied from a simple
wreath on the door to elabo-
rate outdoor settings and beau-
tiful window displays befit-
ting the season.
But, from all indications,
folks were not decorating for
possible honors, but because
they wanted their homes, each
in its own way, to radiate the
yule spirit.
Among entries in the La
Grange Jaycees’ home deco-
rations contest were five
worthy winners. They were
the decorative displays at the
home of O. H. Hoelter, A1
Meinen, Mrs. Verna Reichert,
Ernest Clark and D. C. Wiley.
Each will receive a $5 prize.
Judging was done Monday
night.
Original plans had called for
two divisions—religious and
otherwise — but because of a
lack of entries in the competi-
tion, this method was discard-
ed and no classification was
employed in the judging.
Jaycee officials pointed out
that only those who had of-
ficially entered the contest
were considered, although the
city had many unique and at-
tractive displays in addition
to those formally entered in
the competition.
At the O. H. Hoelter home,
a scene radiating the theme
of “Peace On Earth” was
featured. Yule lights ' were
used on the exterior of the
house, a handsome Christmas
tree could be seen within the
home, and another Christ-
mas tree had been placed at
the side of the house.
Mrs. Verna Reichert’s home
utilized a beautiful door de-
coration of candy canes.
Santa in a cute train on the
lawn, wishing everyone a
Merry Christmas, was the idea
employed by Mr. and Mrs. Al
Meinen. A blue-lighted Christ-
mas tree could be seen
through the big picture win-
dow of the handsome home.

DESPITE DROUTH, NATION’S
FARMERS HIT AG ‘JACKPOT’
The nation’s farmers turned
out their second largest crop
in history this year, in spite of
increased production costa and
the drouth that plagued much
of the country this summer
and fall.
Agriculture Department of-
ficials, in their final summary
of the year’s output, called it
“an astonishingly large volume
of crops” In view of the drouth.
They said cotton acreage losses
were “among the largest on
record.”

Eckel Wins Award
On Pigeon Showing
L. W. Eckel, La Grange’s
pigeon enthusiast who has a
happy habit of winning prizes
at pigeon shows throughout
the Nation, Monday was justi-
fiably proud in exhibiting a
handsome silver service tray
he had just received from the
Texas Pigeon association and
the State Fair.
Reason for the gift, an un-
usually beautiful one, was that
Mr. Eckel won top spot at the
T. P. A.’s big show at the Fair
with his French Gros Mon-
daine pigeon which was judged
“champion of champions” in
the show. The bird competes
in the A. O. C. class.
The win was Mr. Eckel’s
