Violence apparently took a holi-
day in Texas over the week end.
Only five persons were reported
killed
Traffic accidents killed three
persons. There was one death by
hanging. And another man died of
what appeared to be an accidental
gunshot wound.
That was all the deaths reported
to the Associated Press from FrL
day at fi p m. through midnight
Sunday. Usually from 10 to 20 or
more persons die in Texas violence
during a week end.
Two men were killed and seven
persons were injured in a head-on
automobile collision near Angleton
Sunday. The dead were Roland
Smith, 52, Angleton, and Clarence
I.yda, 33, Rockdale.
Five children of Mr. and Mri.
Raymond Robert Gwin Sr., Houa-
ton, were injured in the collision,
two critically. Mr and Mrs. Gwin
were less seriously hurt.
T. G. Walker, 8«, Amarillo, was
killed Saturday night and hia
daughter, Mrs. Ruth Corbin, Dal-
las, was injured in an autotruck
smashup five miles southwest of
Greenville.
M’rs Corbin received a broken
leg in the Highway «7 crash. Two
occupants of the truck escaped ser-
ious injury.

That’s the opinion of a man who

But be isn't discouraged.
He is E. I. (Tommy) Thompson,
independent operator and execu-

Independent Operatot* and Royal

He figures there are a thousand
or so other independent operators
like him who are still looking for
their big strike for every one who
has found it.
’ But 1 still don I know of any
otl^r business that offers so much
opportunity,” te say*.
“It s a matter of percentage. If
you keep playing the percentage [
you’re bound to hit sooner or
later.
He recall* there haa never been
more than two years running m
his 30 years oi searching that he

He drilled the first well in oil-
rich Scurry County — the J. J.
Moore 1. It was also his first.
He drilled five more. Four hit. But
..he was 20 years too soon. Oil sold
for 60 cents a barrel then and his
wells settled out at about 10 bar-
rel* a day each under the ineffi-
cient production methods of that
day. He moved on. Others reaped
the ricii rewards later.

“Recreation is the big chance

prison can lead to trouble,” says
the 36 year old graduate student at
Ohio State University.
“It gives them a chance to per-

“If they can star in one of our

Neither will come right out and
say this is why Ohio Penitentiary
hasn’t been swept up in the wave
of prison riots that have washed
over other and larger prisons, but
they do know this:
The number of cases in the pris-

creasing. The American Prison As-
sociation rates this as the tipoff
for trouble. If your prison court
cases mount, look out; if they de-
crease, congratulate yourself.
Circus acrobatics are just a part
of a big prison recreation program
directed by McCullough. Recrea-
tion is a solid belief of Warden
Alvis, who used to play a rugged
professional fullback, and it’s one
way Alvis seek* to rehabilitate the
men who come to his institution.
