Warriors 36-0
A "very underrated band * of
Farmersville Farmers jail but
. wrecked the Honey Grove Warriors
pennant .hopes last Friday at
Farmeravijle.
Going into the game undefeated
in district play; the highly fftvored
Warriors made a dismal shoving
against the fired xip band of Farrri-
_ crs vho were playing before a
small but enthusiastic home-com-
ing crowd. «,
The Warriors couldn't fathpm
the Farmers offensive attack, and
their shifty and cagey sharpshoot-
ing quarterback, Johnny Stookes-
berry, nor could they get their sin-
gle-wing offense Into gear against
the Farmers. The Tribe's all state
candidate, Tailback Bobby Eaton,
was completely contained by the
Farmers, coming up with minus
yardage for the night.
The Farmers had the measure of
big. John Allen, who also couldn't
move against them- and like, Eaton
ended up in , the minus column.
Keith Gudgel, sophomore tailback
atfd wingback, tsoooy Stuart gave
the Honey Grove partisians about
their only reason to cheer as they
reeled off several chunks of yard-
age for nice gains, but the Tribe
was never able to get a drive going
all the way to p^ydlrt.
With an under-rated team the
Farmers had in senior Stookes-
berry, possibly the most under-
rated single one-man ithreat in class
A football. He was ever bit of that
Friday night. He did everything
and. everything he did was at the
expense of the/Honey Grove War-
riors. .
Stookesberry tossed what act-
ually amounted to five touchdown
passes, as every TD was either
made with an aerial or set up only
a few yards from the goal line on a
throw from Stookesberry to his
two fine ends, Byron LaFevre or
Phillip HbK.
The Honey Grove Warriors who
will be trying to maintain their
three-way tie for the lead in dis-
trict play, meet thi Celina Bob-
cats at Warrior Stadium tonight
at 8:00 o'clock In the season's final
game. 8
ft'11 be the last game of their
high school career for six seniors
unless the district race ends in a
three way tie .and Honey Grove
(which isn't likely) is chosen to
represent the district in post sea-
son play).
Senlprs who'll be playing their
last jpame are: Jeff,tMiorrow, Buster

Fever Must Be
Fed, Watered,
Doctors Say
» CHICAGO — The old saying,
"Feed a cold and starve a fever,"
has been che«ked out by the scien-
tists. It is wrong,
A fever must-be watered and fed,
not starved, warn two physicans at
the Medical Research''Institute of
Michael Reese Hospital here.
Fever leads to the breakdown of
body tissues; Drs. Rachmiel "Levin
and Sidney Cohen repprt, and the
body loses-water. At high tempera-
tures the' body cells work faster
and break down faster; When a
fever reaches 103 degrees Fahren-
heit or more, it becomes dangerous,
they said. .The central nervous
system does not function normally
and high fever can injure the
heart.
A child's body temperature, will
react more sharply with a fever
than does oh older person's. React-
ions to fever-causing agents are
slower and not as drastic, in the
older person, Drs. Levin and Cohen
jeport in the current issue of To-
day's Health, published by the
American Medical Associatiqp.*
There is no general remedy for
fever, they say; Feter caused by
infection is reduced by elimina-
ting the infectious agent. Other
causes of1 fever include food in-
Take, excessive fati^Ue, hypi-rsi'iisl--
tivily to drugs, cirrhosis of the
liver and pregnancy. Fever, the
scientists point out, is not a dis-
ease but rather a symptom which
should be thoroughly Investigated
by a medical doctor. Some persons,
however, have a normally higher
than average terhperature. -

Veterans Day -
Wednesday of this week, ^Nov-
ember 11, was Veter&ns Day. It is
a day that, in recent years has
been more or less neglected, by
American people. In connection
withn this day just passed we print
the following as prepared by .the
office of the Adjustant General of
Texas. Major General K. L. Berry.
I have a feeling that many of us
have come to take the veteran for
granted.. We no longer think of him
as the young man with the tense
and grim face waiting for the ramp
to go down on his landing craft so
that he can jump onto the ^beach
ahd face the death that will be all
around him. . we" think of hitfl as
Bill Jones, a piumoer, or Howard
Smith, farmer, or John Brown
lawyer. Of course, in one sense,
this is good, as the Jopes', the
Browns and the Smiths- i.voula
agree. It's an indication that vet-
erans, A3 the good citizens they are,
have made a, smooth and lasting
adjustment to the civilian world of
America. And yet, we should not
lose sight of them as veterans. It
should be remembered that he did
give up some of the beat and most
fruitful years of his life in" the
service of his county; and it should
be recognized that he is contribut-
ing in peace as he did in war.
Armistice Day originated as
strictly an pbservahce- far World
.War I veterans. It. was largely a
day to pay tribute to" the men who
gave- their lives in battle. Jt was a
day to" remember Noveniber 11,
1918. . .the day of armistice that
heralded the end of the first World
-.War. But a lot has happened since
that history-making moflllllK fui.ljc-
one years- ago. America has gone
through a second World War. Then
fought a war in Korea. The number
of veterans in the USA "rose from
five million to 22 million, yeterans.
became a sizeable, and ^important;
element in the American Way v°f
Life. So the American People de-
terminded . . through their Con-
gress. . that a day; be set'aside to
: honor all who wore thelfcccUntry's
.uniform'.- veterans of World War I.
World War II, the Korean Con-
nect and all other wars in which
America' was engaged. For that
reason, Armistice Day- jjMcai"
changed to Veterans Dny. It wfcid
•not be fitting or mi* to re-
fer to Veterans Da.yAvith6ut point-
ing out that>*e . have reserved
>iay 30, Ateliiorral Day, to pay tri-
butt^toour honotetLdcad. .
^Today, whereever you look,-you'll
find veterans. . .in every inch of
the vast fabric that is America.
They are our doctors, lawers. • our
school teachers and skillet^ crafts-
men ... our merchants end our*
administrators. our scientists
HONORED AT TOCTT'S GAME WITH
CELINA;
The six seniors on the Warrior
squard will be accorded special re-
cdgftltiori tonight when the War-
riors host the Celina Bobcats in
the final 13A game of the season.
All six seniors will be in the
Tribe's starting__li!ie up tonight.
Coach Cotton Martin said Tuesday
Warriorettes Win
Over Windom and
Sherman Giris
The Honey Grave Girls A bask-
etball team has subdued their .op-
ponents in the three games played
thus far in the 'infant season, to
remain uncfefeated. They.haue won
over the Windom girls 'twice "and
the Sherman girls in one gajne.
Monday night of this week, the
Warriorettes downed Sherman 47-
•13 in a nip and tuck, battle which
saw the Lead f-hange four times,
Ann Keen was high point with
26 points, with teanimate Winnie'
Whited netting 18 points.
The big factor in the Monday
game mas Coach- Cotton Martin s
two sets of guards, led by Liz
Sangster and Carolyn Felts. Using
ir mari-to-man defense', these six>
girls have stalled the offensive
thre;at of their competitors in all
three" games,-
morning in discussing his plans
for the game tonight.
Playing in this, the last sched-
uled football game in' their high
school career will be these Seniors;
John Allen, Bobby Baton, Sonny
Dodd, Jeffrey Morrow, Buster Col-
lins and Weldon Houehlns.
A radical change In the Warrior
offense was hlnted'by Martin Tues-
day when he said, "We're making
some- big offense changes and we'll
be working out behind cloaetl
gates to ALL Spectators the rest
of this week." , ' '
The game this (year will be the
first meeting of the two tpams. Al-
though they were in the same dis-
trict last year, Celina forfeited to
the Warriors due to bad weather.
The Bobcats finished in the cellar
last' year in district play, winning
no ga.mes. This year, although im-
proving steadily each week, they
have yet to win in district play.
Last Friday the Bobcats gave
the Wylie Pirates a real scare. Al-
though playing at Wylie and before
a homecoming crowd, Wylie barely
sqeaked by the Pirates. 14-8. r'
