I would like to take this
opportunity to inform our
good citizens of Colorado
County that we are re-
ceiving many reports of
camphouse burglaries, and
also some daylight burg-
laries are on the increase.
The daylight burglaries are
on the increase nationwide;
however, we are determined
to keep the burglaries to our
area to a minimum.
Citizens can assist the
law enforcement agencies by
reporting any and all suspi-
cious - looking persons in
our area. If they are to
a vehicle, get the license
number of the vehicle. If
at all possible get a des-
cription of the vehicle such
as color, make, model, etc.
All persons owning items of
value should record the ser-
ial numbers of these items.
This will assist us to re-
covering property should It
be stolen. Should you find
yourself a victim of a burg-
lary, notify us immediately
and keepeveryone away from
the area and please do not
touch anything around the
area where the burglary was
committed. The possibili-
ty of lifting prints will be
destroyed should anyone
'ouch ’terns that may have
neen handled by the burglar^

i The New Ulm Firemen
. closed their baseball
» season on a losing note
• with *4-1 loss to zone
1 leading Schulenburg Sunday
afternoon here at Firemen’s
. Park.
It was closer than foe
score indicates and it was
a game that mirrored the
entire New Ulm season.,,
flashes of good solid base-
ball sandwiched around a
couple of bad innings.
Young Kyle Fahrenthold
started on the hill tat New
Ulm and went the first 5
innings, allowing 4 tainted
runs on 5 hits while strik-
ing out 7 and walking
but 2.
A horrible 4th inning that
featured 3 Firemen errors
ted to a pair of unearned
runs Fahrenthold got out
of the Jam by striking out
the side.
The fifth inning was an
almost repeat. After a
leadoff stogie, centerflelder
BiU Bobne lost a fly ball
in the sun. Then an in-
field error and a ground
out scored another pair for
Schulenburg.
Ronnie Scearcecametotbe
mound in the sixth and
Richard Hollas greeted his
first pitch by knocking
it for a single.
From that point on
Scearce retired 12 Schul-
enburg batters to a row
aad not allowing a single
runner. Six of the 12 batters
went down via the strike-
out.
In contrast, New Ulm got
8 hits, scoring but the
one run while leaving 9
runners stranded.
The lone New Ulm run
came to foe fourth when
BUI Bobne opened with
a single and was forced
out on Tommy Dlttmar’s
gotnder, advanced on an
infield out and scored on
Brian Zapalac’s double.
For New Ulm Dittmar
had a double and a single,
Zapalac foe double, and
singles by Lindsay Byrum,
David Marek, Bill Bobne,
Jim Marik and Ronnie Sce-
arce.

The night of the Donkey Baseball game has come and gone
and it was a rousing success as a fund-raising effort for
the Little League. Over a thousand tickets were sold through
advance and gate sales, a huge crowd came and it was a
hilarious evening of entertainment. Godfrey’s Donkeys Inc. of
Crescent, Oklahoma, brought the donkeys and said that it
was the biggest crowd of the year that this particular group
had played to. They had finished on Friday with a game at
Giddings and were headed for a game thia week near San
Angelo. Thanks are to order for the many, many people
who mate the event a success to the support of such a
community-spirited effort. Many people worked hard to many
capacities, some in more than one Job. And the tans were
great, the players were at their athletic best and the sup-
porters and area businessmen were most helpful. It all takes
effort and everyone deserves an abundance of thanks. In the
entertaining game, the Bellville Lions Cite won 1-0 over the
West End Lions Club. A pair of glasses were lost and anyone
who may have found them at the field can contact Mrs.
Florence Raeke who will get them to foe owner. Also there
were a couple of glass ice cream Jars left in the concession
stand and there is also an ice cream freezer dasher at the
concession stand that doesn't fit the freezer it ended up
with. So folks might check their ice cream freezers so that
they can get foe right dashers exchanged.
