Master Sergeant H. .1. Werner
High school and college students
and recent graduates who have re- | the 300 level.
According to a talk made be-
fore the local Kiwanis i lub Tues-
day, Denison and Sherman stand
to have the best baseball club in
the Twins since the twin-city or-
ganization was formed. The bus-
iness manager of the club, Dick
King, who will make his home in
Denison, stated that they hud
some of the best men in the v.
riou.-; positions to be found in the
business and believed the dub
had a chance to sport the penna it
winners for the district, if not
the state in their class.
Mr. King named the various
players and their positions and
gave their records as to putouts,
batting average, etc. All of the
men had a batting average of
near the 400 mark, a few of them
dropping down to slightly above

ry J. Werner, in charge of the lo-
cal Marine recruiting station an-
nounced.
Previously, the receipt of a no-
tice to report for pre-induction
physical examination or induction
barred a student or recent grad-
uate from enlisting in any branch
of the service.
The new order, Werner warned,
applies only to high school and
college students or recent gradu-
ates. Anyone else receiving pre-
induction notices still cannot be
enlisted, he said.
Students or recent graduates
who have received only their or-
ders to report for pre-induction
physical and mental exams can
enlist without reference to their
draft board.

The Kiwanians received the talk
with enthusiasm and pledged their
full support.
Mr. King outlined a series of
special nights to promote the club
and make it popular. Among them
will be nights dedicated to sur-
rounding towns, when they will
be special guests of various local
clubs and other organizations. A
high school night at which both
Denison and Sherman will have
part with a 30 minute game play-
ed between the two high school
teams with the rooters from both
towns given special seats was in-
dicated as a possible feature for
one night. School administra-
tors will be welcomed and the
bands will furnish music. Bands
from various high schools will
also be invited as guests for the
event, Mr. King stated.
Mr. King was presented by H.
R. Miller and John Clift. Sing-
ing was led by E. V. Odeneal and
the invocation was by John Reid.

“The more education a man has,
the better Marine he makes. But
if he has already decided to leave
