This photo cabled from London to New York shows air raid precautions and volunteer workers searching
among the ruins of bombed buildings for casualties in the famous resort city of Bath, England. The city
was savagely bombed by German warplanes in reprisal for the Royal Air Force offensive against Nazi
objectives. Bath is a refugee and evacuee center and it is feared that the loss of life is heavy.

Spring football entered its
fourth and last week with more
than fifty Senior High candidates
and some 25 juniors working out
daily on the high school field. The
Junior High group came over with
the seniors this week due to the de-
parture of Groce, coach, who
taken a defense job in Texarkana.
The first real .scrimmage -with
the coaches not on the field was
held last Friday afternoon. The A
team was composed of Flusche and
Walton at ends, Orr and Forbes at
tackles, Scheurer and Eckelcamp at
guards, Curfman at center with
Bruce, Jacobi, Key and Koch in the
backfield. Two more such scrim-
mages will be held this week, the
last one being scheduled for Fri-
day. The above lineup is only ten-
tative, however, and several
changes may be made before the
big game next Tuesday night.
The E Association Exes
making big preparations for the
game also. Their backfield, com-
posed of Goodson, Gillum, Forbes
and Scales anticipates having a big
night at the expense of the Tiger
green line. The 1942 Tigers will be
able to start experienced veterans
at only the end positions, one guard
position, and one backfield post.
The other lettermen, Eckelcamp at
guard, Jacobi at fullback, Curfman
at center, are either playing at new
positions or were subs at their
place last fall.
Jacobi at fullback has been the
find of the spring season. It \rill
take him some time to learn his
new position but should be far more
valuable to the Tiger cause in the
backfield next fall than he would
be at end where there are two oth-
er lettermen in Flusche and Wal-
ton. He is making his presence
felt both on defense and on offense.
Rex Bruce is a two year letterman
in the backfield while the other two
positions are wide open. The lead-
ing candidtes are Ray Noah, David
Key, Marvin Weatherford, Pete
Koch, Billy Norwood, and * Buster
Watson. Billy Ray Wright is the
only other fullback. Another point
of much competition^-is at guard

Pledges Course

with city, state and our national

ment is mistreated.

oil field thefts.

tonks” violating the laws of the
county and state.

tution, oi’ anyone encouraging

Wichita Falls, worked in the re-
fineries. I have never been without
a job since I was old enough to
■work. I have had experience in va-
rious walks of life and it has given
me a broader understanding of
people — the farmer, oil field
workers and citizens of every
classification.
I have worked eight years as a
peace officer and I have made
many arrests, but never have I had
to strike a person or mistreat him.
I have tried to be courteous to
all people and advocate this as a
policy for all officers — to be
thoughtful, patient and courteous
to all whom they arrest. Officers
will find that they have very little
trouble if they follow this policy.
I have studied the FBI system
of investigating, which is sponsor-
ed by the United States Depart-
ment of Justice, and I believe I am
capable of making a full and com-
plete investigation of any offense
that might occur in Wichita Coun-
