more Fullback, who fell heir to
the team's punting and quick
kicking chores at mid season
booted the ball 39 times in the sea-
son's final five games for an av
erage of 32 yards, via the punt
and quick kick route. Eaton had
no punts blocked and in both the
Rockwall and Emory games his
ability to punt high and for dis
tnnco as well helped supply the
margin' bf victory by keeping his
opponents deep in their end of the
field most of the time.
Eaton also did well as a runner,
In the season's final game with
Emory, he scored one TD and
amassed a total of 69 yars in ten
limes at carrying the ball for
average of 6.9 yards per carry.

NEWS FROM
PETTY
Friends were made sad when told
of the death of W. W. Mitchell
who died in his sleep early Tues-
day morning. At midnight Monday
night his daughter, Mrs. Walter
Stewart, with whom he made his
home, went to his room to see a-
bout him and he was asleep ant^
resting well and at 6 am. she went
in to see about him again and
found him dead, he passed away
peacefully sometime between the
hour of 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock
Tuesday morning. Truly it can be
said ''In the midkt of life we are
in dfeath." Mr. Mitchell would have
bean 91 years old on November
25, 1957. He was born at Knox-
ville, Tenn., on November 25, 1866
and 20 years later he moved to
Texas where he has lived until
his death. He was married Jan.
18, 1888, to Miss Mattie Hughes
who preceded him in death. He
leaves the following children, Mrs.
W. W. Gurley, Mrs. Guy Graves,
Mrs. Walter Stewart, all of Patty,
and Mrs. John Barnes of Paris,
who died earlier this year. He al
so leaves a number of grandchild-
ren and 1 great-great-grandchild
and 3 brothers all of Fountain,
Tenn. The funeral services wi
held Wednesday at 2 p.m. at West
Funeral Home with burial at
Forest Hill cemetery. His pastor,
the Rev. J. L. Hyde of tha -Petty
Methodist Church, conducted the
services. Deepest sympathy is ex
tended the bereaved loved ones.

To the people of Fannin County:
This is a report to the people
of Fannin County regarding the
thirty-day special session which
ended last week and the opening
of the second thirty-day special
session.
During the first thirty-day
special session the legislature
passed a lobby registration bill
This bill requires all persons who
represent others for pay or who
are interested in legislation, pend-
ing before either branch of the
legislature, to register and list
their clients with the Chief Clerk
of the House of Representatives.
They must also list the amounts
of money spent for lobbying pur-
poses during each month the legis-
lature is in session. After many
years of frustration and failure
Legislature. The passage of this
in the problems of controlling the
unusual influence of both the "or-
measure represents a Btep forward
this bill was passed by the Texas
ganized" and the "back door" lob
by in Texas.
The legislature passed a bill re-
quiring registration of stAte of-
ficials who practice professionally
before any of the state agencies.
Water legislation adopted in the
first thirty-day session provides
for a state-wide water ylanning
program. There was appropriated
nearly one million dollars to a wa-
ter-planning division. This is a
new division created under the
Board of Water Engineers by this
bill. It also allows the water board
to make preliminary agreements
for the purchase of storage space
in federal reservoirs subject to ap-
proval of the legislature.
A bill was passed setting up a
Law Enforcement Commission.
This measure authorizes the-ap-
pointment of a study committee
to be composed of nine members
which will make effective studies
and recommendations in the field
of crime prevention and law en-
forcement. Study and recommen
dation changes in the penal code
and code of criminal procedure
are also contemplated by the bill.
The committee is directed to make
its report to the 56th Legislature
for possible legislative action.
Many other bills of lesser impor-
tance and of a local nature were
submitted In the closing days by
Governor Price Danlfcl and were
passed by the legislature.
I was one of those who strongly
urged the enactment of a lobby
control bill and an adequate state-
wide water program. I feel that
the legislature has made a great
accomplishment with the enact-
ment of these two laws.
Bills were introduced in both
the House and Senate on the first
day of the second called session
which, if passed,will require
schools to close if troops are used
to enforce Integration. Public
hearings have been held this week
on both these bills and are expect-
ed to be voted out of committee
and passed by the legislature be-
fore the week han ended. The only
danger which might prevent pas-
sage of this legislation this week
could be a "filibuster" in the Sen-
ate. If tliis "filibuster" does some
about by Senators representing
South Texas districts, it can only
last for seperal hours. I feel con-
fident that one of these bills will
be passed. However, these delay-
ing tactics could force the legis-
lature to stay in session for iin
extra week.
The legislature could possibly
stay in session the entire thirty
days if the Governor submits
other matters for its consideration.
However, it is doubtful that he
will do so and we expect to com-
plete our work and to adjour-
this week and certainly no later
than the end of next week.
