Four representatives and the
sponsor of the Future Homemak-
ers Club of Kermit High School
look forward to a week of fun
and interesting study next week,
June 9-13, at Camp Aowakiya
(an Indian name meaning “band
together for a purpose”) in
Rooney Park at Fort Stockton.
The camp, an annual occasion
before the war, is being held
again, and those attending will
include Area III supervisor of
vocational homemaking educa-
tional homemaking education,
Miss Florence McAlister of Big
Spring; the Future Homemakers
Club of Fort Stockton and their
sponsor, Miss Yvonne Kit Carson,
who are sponsoring the camp, and
other club members and sponsors
from near-by towns.
Those planning to attend from
the Kermit chapter include Miss
Millie Shafer, club sponsor; and
Misses Oneida Hildebrand, LaRue
Carr and Dorothy Taylor. The
camp activities include club school
of instruction, arts and crafts,
sketching, swimming, a picnic,
dancing, a picture show and
achievement night.
Complete schedule is to be
worked out and announced as
soon as possible.
All team managers are re-
minded, according to Charlie
Green, who has been named high
commissioner of the league, that
team rosters, signed contracts
from individual players, and the
$20 entrance fee must 'be in the
Chamber of Commerce office by
noon Monday.
The field, as completed, gives
facilities not only for night soft-
ball, but hardball games also can
be played. Admission of 5c and
15c to the softball games will
be charged to pay for the lights.
Organization of the league was
planned and started several
weeks ago by the sports and rec-
reation committee of the Cham-
ber of Commerce, and its com-
pletion is due to the efforts of
the committee and some members
of the various teams who have
been anxious to begin playing.
Much of the materials, including
pipe for the light poles, welding,
etc., have been donated, as well
as the labor which has made the
field possible.
Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Lipham of
Monahans and daughters and sons
and their families who live in
this vicinity attended a family
reunion at the J. M. Lipham home
Thursday evening. Thirty-seven
members of the family were in
attendance.
Oilers Defeat
Seminole, 17 to 5
Kermit’s Oilers Sunday waltzed
back into the win column with a
17-to-5 victory over Seminole’s
cellarites.
in a game which produced
everything in the book, and a
sandstorm mingled with rain be-
sides, the Oilers whammed out
thirteen hits, including two home
runs by Hall and Durrett, and
six others good for extra bases.
Hall went the distance for Ker-
mit and gave up eight hits, three
of which were for the round-
trip. However, he was in an easy
position all afternoon, and coasted
in under wraps.
The win kept the Oilers in a
three-way tie with Levelland and
Sundown, with four wins and
two losses.
The Oilers journey to Levelland
Sunday to end play in the first
half of the season’s play. A win
over Levelland, with Seagraves
and Sundown losing would give
the locals a tie for first place
in the league standings.
Manager Roy Peden said he
would place a full-strength team
on the field Sunday at Levelland,
and, win or lose, would have
no alibis.
The bride wore a suit of light
blue, with harmonizing ac-
cessories, and carried a bouquet
of orchids.
P
Mrs. Lucy Rogers of Deming,
N.M., has spent the past week
visiting her niece, Mrs. H. B.
