Welcome Northwood Insti-
tute!
Monday morning classes
will begin on the Cedar Hill
campus of Northwood Institute
It's a first for Cedar Hill.
As a community, Cedar Hill
has long been active in pro-
moting education among it’s
young people but the thought
of having a college this near is
a new idea.
We have a pretty good re-
cord for students entering
college each year. We average
from fifty to sixty-five per-
cent. This year 19 students
who graduated in June, out of
a class of 34, will enter some
college this fall. Two of these
students will begin study Mon-
day at Northwood.
In colleges our young people
itlll aural! Wm tune a uunUmr
For a community that aver-
ages graduating around thirty
students each year, the re-
cord of students activities in
college is one the whole town
can be proud of.
For Northwood Institute, we
wish the very best and hope to
see the campus grow and if we
as a community can be of
assistance, we will welcome
the opportunity to serve you.

With the new ftampus open-
ing and the Gifford-Hill plant
progressing, we are having
more and more people seeking
rooms to rent and houses to
rent or buy. This is a major
problem for our city in the
future.
We hope our city fathers,
the Chamber of Commerce,
and yes, most of all. [*•■•

count to be used in the future
for extension of water and
sewer lines.
--Discussed the fact that
long distance telephone calls
have been made on city tele-
phones that were not autho-
rized calls. The city secre-
tary, J. L. Drake, said that
the matter was being checked
into already.
--Paid the bills and ad-

Suitors To Spoasor
Chili, Boaa Sappor
The Cedar Hill High School
seniors will sponsor a chill
and bean supper Friday night
before the home football game.
The supper will be held from
S p.m. to 7 p.m, in the high
school lunchroom.
Cedar Hill’s Longhorns
confronted Glen Rose Tigers
with a stingy and stealing
defense Friday night as well
as Toby Toberny, who gallop-
ed through the Tigers for 121
yards on nineteen carries.
• The final score was 14-6.
Each time the Tigers would
get their vaunted offense to
rolling (prior to this game
they had averaged 44.5 points
per game) an alert Cedar Hill
defender would intercept a
pass to stifle all dreams.
The 'Horns stole four in all.
Randy Vincent plucked off two,
and Toberny and Wayne Hayes
each got one.
The first half was complete-
ly dominated by Cedar Hill.
It looked like the'Horns would
camp on Glen Rose's goal-
line all night, but one touch-
down was all they could muster
in three penetrations.
Finally, John Rowan skirt-
ed left end from two yards
out and Toby Toberny tacked
on two extra points to put the
‘Horns ahead by 8-0 at the
half.
Glen Rose was able to make
only one first down the first
half as linemen Terry Pace,
Mike Gibson, David Lemmons,
Earl Mullins, Ronnie Foley,
and John Rowan gave the
Tigers only 1 yard rushing.
The third quarter was all
Cedar Hill, too.
After kicking off to Glen
Rose to start the second half,
the ‘Horns held and took over
on their own 20 after a Tiger
punt rolled into the end-zone.
It took the ‘Horns eighteen
plays to move the eighty-yards
for a score, and Wayne Hayes
got the final eight yards on a
reverse up the middle.
The attempt for extra points
failed and the ‘Horns entered
the fourth quarter with what
looked like a comfortable 14
point margin.
However, in the fourth quar-
ter, the ‘Horns had to fight
for their life to salvage a
victory. Glen Rose accounted
for its first touchdown when
Toberny intercepted a pass on
the Glen Rose 1 yard line to
halt a long drive. On the
next play, Vincent fumbled the
Jaycee-Ettes Hove
Pot Luck Supper
The Cedar Hill Jaycee-
Ettes held a Pot Luck Supper
at the home of Mrs. Linda
Brown September 27.
At this time, Mrs. Shirley
Nicholson was named Out-
standing Jaycee- Ette of the
Quarter.
Mrs. Nicholson is vice-pre-
sident over all ways and means
projects the club undertakes.
She has been chairman of three
projects and co-chairman of
two. She has also helped with
nine other projects this quar-
ter.
Following the supper, a
membership meeting was
held. Ten members and two
guests were present.
ball on the 1 yard line, and it
took the Tiger’s Bennie
Nichols two plays to sneak it
across for the TD.
Following the kick-off, Glen
Rose recovered another
errant ‘Horn fumble and was
knocking on the goal-line,
when an alert Mike Gibson
pounced one one of their fum-
bles. From here the Long-
horns kept the ball long
enough to run out the clock
and preserve their first vic-
tory of the 1966 season.
Kennedale Game
Cedar Hill will play their
first home game of the season
this Friday night when they
play host to the Kennedale
Kats.
Game time is 8:00 p.m.
Coach Roten said, “Kenne-
dale has a very scrappy ball
club, one that is capable of
giving us a hard time if we're
not ready to play. If we do
what we’re capable of, how-
ever, we should even our re-
cord this weekend.’’
Longhorn Stars
Four Ixmghorns received
stars for their play in the Glen
Rose game last week.

pass, a tackle on kick-off in-
side 30, recovered onside
kick-off, and a master tackle.

punt.

Bullies Beat St. Marks

The Bullies scored once in
the third quarter then broke

final period. Fullback Billy
Barrett led the charge, scor-

Letters of Commendation
honoring their high perfor-
mance on the 1966 National
Merit Scholarship Qualifying
Test (NMSQT) have been
awarded to one student at
Cedar Hill, Principal C. W.
Hawkins has announced.
The named Commended stu-
dent is Mary L. Griffin.
Mary is among 38,000 stu-
dents in the United States who
scored in the upper two per-
cent of those who will graduate
from high school in 1967. The
Commended student rank just
below the 14,00 SemifinaJists
announced earlier this month
by the National Merit Scholar-
ship Corporation (NMSC).
John M. Stalnaker, presi-
dent of NMSC, said: “The
outstanding record made by
these students in a national
competition deserves public
recognition. Their significant
academic attainment gives
promise of continued success
in college.
“The Commended students
should be encouraged to
pursue their education as their
intellectual talent represents
an important and much needed
natual resource. Our nation
will benefit from their con-
tinuing educational develop-
ment.”
Only the highest-scoring
students in each state, the
Semifinalists, remain eligible
to be considered for Merit
Scholarships. Although stu-
dents receiving Letters of
Commendation advance no
further in the Merit Program,
their names are reported to
other scholarship-granting
agencies and to the colleges
they named as their first and
second choices at the time
they took the NMSQT. These
colleges also receive reports
of home addresses, test
scores, anticipated college
majors and career intentions
of the Commended students.
NMSC encourages these
students to make every effort
to continue their education.
