ming. She plans to attend Tar-
leton State College In the fall

FRANCES LONG
Frances, a junior at OHS, ls
16 years of age and ls the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ro-
Joe Carroll Announces Candidacy
For District Attorney, 27th District
TO V0TER8 OF
MILLS COUNTY:
I’m running for District At-
torney on the following plat-
form.
1. Firm, vigorous prosecution
of all criminal cases so that the
qullty will be punished.
2. Fewer probations so that
only those entitled to a second
chance will get one.
3. More jury trials so that
the people will have a choice In
justice.
4. Fair treatment with equal
justice so that all people will
get an even break before the
law.
Politics is hotter this year
than It has been in many years.
Many races and office seekers
are competing for your attent-
ion. The race for District At-
torney deserves your serious
consideration.
At a time when narcotic and
drug addiction ls reaching epi-
demic proportions, at a time
when the violent crime rate ls
rising faster than population,
and at a time when crime ls
moving out of the large cities
and Into smaller cities and
towns, it is time for you to be-
come concerned, as I am.
I am presently County At-
torney of Bell County. During
my first year in office, convict-
ions In that Court were up 43%
over the previous year and fury
trials were Increased 13 times
over the same period.
The snmU businessman's big-
gest enem^. the <S9t Check,'was
successfully combated for the
first time; as Well. These pro-
secutions resulted In fines and
Jail terms being assessed agai-
nst the offenders and restitu-
tion being collected for the vic-
tims.
Three years and four months
ago. I served as Assistant Dis-
trict Attorney In this, our Dis-
trict. Then the Army had a
place for me for six months.
I have been a private pract-
icing attorney in Temple and
am still In the Air Borne Na-
tional Guard.
We should all devote time to
public service when we can.
Since finishing Law School four
years ago, I’ve been a member
of many civic clubs, boards,
and chambers. Among them axe
the Optimist, the Jaycees, the
Rotary, the Child Welfare
Board, the Central Texas Area
Museum, and the Chamber of
Commerce.
Susan, my wife, teaches
school In Belton, and we attend
the First Baptist Church.
My roots go deep In Central
Texas. My grandmother was
born on a farm In Bell County.
My dad, Joe Carroll, lived In
Temple all his life; and I've
lived In Temple all my life.
I love our country side and
the outdoors. J believe lt should
be protected. As County Attor-
ney, we filed, also for the first
time In Bell County, pollution
CB86S.
I believe if we don’t beat nar-
cotics, they will beat us. Drug
sellers should be In prison with
no probation or suspended sen-
tence.
Look at the qualifications of
the candidates, and their pro-
fessional associations. I hold
memberships In the Bell-Lam-
