About Mose Simms
Blondy ( ross, San Angelo scribe,
tells the following yarn on the
Abilene baseball magnate, Mose
Simms:
Mose Simms, president of the
new West Texas baseball league
skeleton organization, is known
widely in West Texas baseball cir-
cles as Sheep Herder Simms. It
broke a number years ago when
after being thrown off one team
because the first day he hit five
doubles and the next day didn’t hit
any, he joined a club down around
McCulloch county, or maybe it was
over around San Saba, and blasted
so many balls out of the lot that
a set of the more or less militant
adversary fans thought the team
pilot had run in a ringer and
promptly asked where he came
from. It was replied that he “is
a sheep herder from Sonora.” And
the monicker has stayed.

About Rice Players
Eight stellar football players at
Rice Institute, Houston, were re-
cently suspended for irregularities
[during mid-term exams, cheating,
in other words. Lloyd Gregory,
j sports editor of the Houston Post,
turns out the following brief ser-
। mon in his excellent column, “Look-
ing 'Em Over.”
Ever so often a newspaperman
is called on to write a story that
hurts him in the writing. And it
hurt plenty for this scribe to write
the story of the suspension of eight
Rice Institute football players.
We know well these eight play-
ers—most of them just kids. All
of them are likeable. We are
sure they didn't quite realize what
they were doing when they violat-
ed the Institute’s rules on the
writing of an examination.
It tequired no little courage on
the part of the Rice Institute honor
council to suspend these men, sev-
eral of them truly great football
players. The easiest course would
have been to hush the entire af-
fair. But it must be admitted
there are some things more im-
portant than football.
If these eight football players
are made of the right sort of stuff,
they next fall will apply for re-
admission to Rice Institute. This
will be the courageous course.
In the meantime, our sympathy
goes out to the eight players, who
have made a mistake many youths
make in going through school; to
Head Coach Jack Meagher, who
sees his bright championship
hopes fading; to Dr. Gaylord John-
son, Rice business manager of ath-
letics, who helped to arrange for
1933 one of the most attractive
schedules ever carded by a South-
west conference school.
Mexico leads foreign countries with
150 in the Texas penal institution.

Rev. T. C. Jensen, Pastor
We call the attention of the
members of the church to some of
the reorganization activities which
have been completed and adopted
. officially by the church. In our
newcom- conference last Sunday morning
a week ago, the following organi-
zation was perfected by the church.
Four women’s classes were vot-
ed to be created in the Adult De-
partment of the Sunday School.
The four divisions adopted and the
teachers elected for the respective
classes are as follows:

Clyde Eubanks reports a sure-
enough side-show curiositw out at

—a tiny Jersey calf, which at four
or five days old weighs about
10 pounds. While the calf was
apparently prematurely born, it is
actually normal in every res-
pect, except as to size, and gam-
bols about as frisky as any other
calf of its age. However, it is un-
able to suckle its mother without
aid, since its head is bigger than
its body, and it does not have the
strength to hold the head up. The
mother is a regular Jersey, and
this is her fifth or sixth calf; all
her previous calves were normal.
FEARS MOHAIR PRICES WILL
REMAIN LOW THRU YEAR
(Llano News)
W. D. Jordan of Brady was in
the city for a short while yester-
day on business and meeting his
numerous Llano friends. He was
the guest of the Luncheon Club
and in a short talk there stated
that he was afraid the price of
mohair would not see much, if
any advance, during the coming
er.
Women, ages 36 to 45 inclusive
-Mrs. G. L. Hollon, teacher.
W omen, ages 46 to 55 inclusive
—Teacher not yet selected.
Women, ages 56 and up—Mrs.
A. R. Pool, teacher.
Rev. Thorwald C. Jensen was
elected as teacher of the elderly
men’s class. Mrs. Jesse Renfro
and Mr. Rocky Davenport were
elected teachers in the Intermedi-
ate Department.
Mr. C. H. Arnspiger was elected
treasurer of the church.
A cordial invitation is extended
to all who will attend the services
of the church each Sunday. Come,
find your place, study God’s word,
and enjoy the fellowship of relic,
lous worship.
Scientists estimate that 40 per
cent of the land of the earth is
desert, 30 per cent is productive,
and 30 per cent is poor grazing

waste. There is no agreement as
to the exact portion that is inhabit-
able.
season.
Mr. Jordan is manager of the
Mayhew Produce Company of
Brady and aside from buying poul-
try, this firm deals extensively in
wool and mohair and this gentle-
man has been making a close study
of the markets for the past few
weeks.
In his talk he said that it was
simply a matter of the production
being greater than consumption,
which invariably brings the price
to its lowest point. Through the
practice of economy the people of
the world have not been using
woolen and mohair goods to the ex-
tent they did in normal times. He
did say, however, there was a
strong probability of the mohair
from the younger animals bring-
ing a fair price, but that this
would include only the very choic-
est and that from the young stock.
Kansas City grain mills grind
between 80 and 90 million bushels
