New Christian Church Facilities
Dedicated In Sunday Ceremonies
A large crowd of out of
town guests joined with mem-
bers and friends of the First
Christian Church here Sunday
afternoon in dedication rites
for the new facilities, which
include an interim sanctuary
and Sunday School rooms.
The service was held at 3
p.m.
The Rev. Robert W Daniel,
paster, was in charge of the
service which heard Dr. James
Moudy, vice chancellor of Tex-
Pet Deer
Dangerous
as Christian University and a
former local pastor, preach the
dedication sermon from t h e
subject "Let This Building
Speak".
The church choir, under the
direction of Jan Harrington,
presented special music, and
greetings were extended by
Rev. Jesse Pugh for the 17th
district of Christian Churches;
i by Dr. Gilbert Callaway for
i the Wylie Ministerial Alliance;
i and by the Rev. Rex Mix for
i the Texas Association of Christ-

tian Churches.
Other ministers appearing on
the program included Dr.
Lloyd Motley of McKinney, the
Rev. C. E. Mull, Sr. of Terrell,
Dr. Chester Crow of Garland
and the Rev. C. C. Klingman
of Comache.
In Autumn For Game Birds
Persons possessing "pet"
wild deer were cautioned by E.
A. Walker, wildlife executive
for the Parks and Wildlife De-
partment, to beware "season-
al unruliness" of the animals.
He said he was prompted to
intervene because cf the "vi-
cious tendencies characteristic
of fall behavior" and because
of a recent attack on a Geor-
gia man by his own pet deer,
naturally named "Bambi."
Thomas A. Stovall, age 56
and weighing 205 pounds, re-
ported he fought the animal
about an hour and (hat it charg-
ed him repeatedly with its eight-
point antlers, slashing t h e
man's legs and chest and
wounding him in the forehead
and groin.
Stovall 'finally crawled un-
der a fen<-e and sought to bar-
ricade himself between t w o
logs but the deer pursued him
relentlessly. He said he grab-
bed the attacking beast with
one antler and its tongue and
held on until he was rescued
by a fisherman in a boat in a
nearby cove.
He later asked wildlife au-
ti.::'.ies to destroy the buck.
Walker said only agencies
with zoological permits are au-
thorized to have a wild deer
on their premises and that all
such possessions by individuals
are discouraged. "Every fall
when the mating season con-
verts ordinarily docile wild pets
into p< ential killers, similar in-
cidents occur," said Walker.
"And that is why our policy
is to prevent attempted domes-
tication of the creatures."

Leaving crop stubble as long
j as possible after harvest serves
jas a food source for many
game birds.
j Such birds as quail, doves,
j ducks geese and wild turkeys
! often have a difficult time find-
ing food during winter and
j early sprinp, points out Wal-
' lace Klussmann, Extension
wildlife conservation specialist.
Crop residues plus the seed
of native weeds that are avail-
able i.i harvested fields make
one o! the best food sources
for wild game, But, says Kluss-
mann. some birds, particularly
quail, will not utilize food in
! a field unless there is some cov-
er to protect them from natural
' enemies. Plant stubble left in
J the fio'd will give this needed
protection.
Rice, corn, grain sorghum
and other field crops provide
especially good feeding areas
I following harvest if left undis-
turbed as long as possible. Na-
I live wieds and woody vegeta-
j tion along field borders serve
as natural travel lanes for
birds attempting to feed in a
; field.
Leavi'ig stubble on the field,
| idds the specialist, is also rec-
ognized in many areas as a
°ood soil conservation practice.
The stubble aids in controlling
both wind and water erosion
and in holding snow in north-
ern ar-as.

Your grocery store stocks
more than 1,000 food items

did not exist even 10 years ago.

Farm 'Look
Remains
Unchanged
The overall agricultural out-
look for 1965 takes on a com-
plexion pointing to an increase
i in demand as well as an in-
| crease in supply of farm prod-
! ucts. Farm prices and incomes,
| however, are expected to re-
] main relatively stable.
Markets for farm products on
j the home front will continue to
| expand due to economic growth,
rising consumer incomes and
population growth, reports John
'McHaney, Extension econo-
mist, Texas A&M University.
Looking to the foreign mark-
et, agricultural exports in fis-
cal 1964-65 are anticipated to
continue at a high level, though
somewhat below the record-
setting total of $6.1 billion last
year. This total was 20 percent
above the previous two years.
Producers of agricultural
commodities, however, will
still be confronted with large
supplies of farm and ranch pro-
ducts, says the economist. Both
iivestock and crop production
are expected to increase slight-
ly, while carryover stocks re-
main large, particularly for
grains and cotton.
With the large supply of farm
products, little hope prevails
an increase in average prices
1 received by farmers. While lit-
tle change is foreseen in live-
stock product prices, crop pric-
es will probably ba sl'igM.y low-
er in 1085.
McHaney estimates the total
gross income realized by all
farmers and ranchers wiill
maintain the level of the past
two years. This income includes
cash receipts, government pay-
ments and non-money income.
Furthermore, only small in-
creases in production expenses
are in prospect as compared
wi.h increases in recent years.
Farm assets during 1964 are
anticipated to increase more
than three percent, due mainly
to rii'ng land vaiiues. Farmers'
debts, though, continue to rise,
says McHaney, and there will
bo a greater need for farm cred-
it .":r acquiring land and capital
goods in the coming year.
F„r tiie U. S. as a whole,
farmers' liabilities are likely to
increase to about 16.4 cents per
dollar of total assets on Janu-
ary 1. This compares wftih a
j rate of 15.7 cents a year earlier
and 9.5 cents in 1950.
John Haitfield, Bill Wingfield
and John S. Pendergreas spent
the week-end deer hunting near
Mason.
The Sunday dedication c I i-
maxed a full week of activities
for the congregation. A num-
ber of area ministers spoke
each night throughout the week
and visiting choirs furnished
the music each evening. Fri-
day night service was labeled
one of ecumenical witness with
Dr. Luther Holeomb of the
Dallas Council of Churches
speaking.
Dr. C. C. Klingman, a for-
mer pastor of the church,
spoke to the congregation on
Sunday morning.
The new facilities, located at
the southeastern edge of the
city on FM - 544, was complet-
ed in November with the first
service being held in the new
building on Nov. 22.
Texas Cut
Steaks To
Governors
As a result of the recent con-
ference in San Antonio, South-
ern governors are in complete
accord on at least one subject,
thanks to Governor John Con-
nally.
That subject is Texas Cut
Steaks which Governor Connal-
ly presented to them as dele-
gates to the Southern Gover-
nors' Conference in San Anto-
nio, which Connally hosted a
few weeks ago.
As a personal gift from the
Texas Governor each of the
18 Southern governors who at-
tended the conference received
boxes of Texas Cut Steaks at
their respective mansions fol-
lowing the conference.
The steaks were shipped by
air express to each of the 18
state capitols. Governor Con-
nally chose the Texas C u t
Steaks as "something typical-
ly Texan" inasmuch as they
are produced from Texas beef,
raised, fed and processed in
Texas.
Governors receiving the
steaks were so pleased with
the Texas product they wrote
"tlnnk you notes" express-
ing their appreciation of Gov-
ernor Connally's gift and the
condition in whic'h the steaks
arrived.
Typical Gubernatorial com-
ments included:
Governor Frank G. Clement,
Tennessee: . . nice of Gov-
ernor and Mrs. Connally to re-
member us with this delicacy."
Governor Farris Bryant, Flo-
rida: "... the delicious Texas
Cut Steaks added to tlhe hos-
pitality" of the occasion.
Governor John M. Dalton,
Missouri: . . saved them for
an extra special occasion as
we know they will be delicious

Wylie Boys Are
Undefeated: Prep
For Tournament
Coach R. C. Dodd's basket-
ball boys are undefeated in sea-
son play and are making plans
to continue their winning ways
in the annual tournament here
this weekend.
The Pirates have defeated
Carroid 55-31; took Forney 53-
42 and Monday night trounced
Rockwall 65-51. All 'three games
have been against stlTf compe-
tition.
Next game for the lads will
be tonight (Thursday) when
they meet Farmersville at 7:40
o'clock.
This year's squad will be the
smallest team Coach Dodd has
ever coached here, but will no
doubt be the most colorful. A
combination cf two of the small-
est guards in the state, Donald
Johnson, all of 5-ft. 8, and Clem-
mie Benson, a 5-ft. 6 lad, gives
premise of providing colorful
ball handling and excellent play
making.
This colorful duo will be aid-
ed and abetted by some sharp-
shooters such as Phil Tibbals,
Ray Barnes, Mike Coffey, Lar-
ry Travis, Roger Austin, Pete
Martinez, Russell Phillips,
Mike Hale and Richard Parker,
all of which adds up to an in-
teresting prospective year.
Many of the lads on this
year's team have played to-
gether throughout both Junior
High and High Scihool, and they
are the type team which could
surprise in this year's confer-
ence race.
