battling the elements which
brought a steady downpour of
rain most of the morning as
well as one of the trickiest
courses to be found in all the

Rain which began falling in the

throughout the morning but did
not dampen the ardor of the fems
as they entered enthusiastically in-
to the confest.
While, no scores were available
at 11 o’clock a. m. it was not ex-
pected that any records would fall
today as the condition of the
course following the rain was not
conducive to good golf shooting.
Nearly ail the twelve towns in

AUSTIN, April 28 (UP)—Or-
ville S. Carpenter, executive direc-
tor of the Texas Old Age Assist-
ance Administration, back today
from conferences at Washington,
announced:
(1) An effort will be made to
begin pensions in June.
(2) Federal funds will match
state pensions dollar for dollar.
(3) It will be possible for pen-
sioners to receive $30 dollars a
month if their needs justify that
much.
Carpenter said reports that
Texas funds would not be match-
ed by Federal funds is "fiction.”
He said Federal funds would not
reimburse states for payments
made to applicants who were not
in need or for payments in excess
of their need, but payments to
needy will be matched dollar for
dollar.
Director Carpenter said he
could not now promise definitely
that June payments will be made
bu( that every thing possible, in-
cluding a night shift of workers
in some of the offices, is being
done to hasten payments.
