Track Meet Next Week
With 42 hopefuls out,
track work started in earn-
est this week at Humble
High School with the first
scheduled meet little more
than a week away*
Track Coach Charles
Forehand has only two let-
termen back from last
year’s squad, but a wealth
of younger athletes are on
hand and some could de-
velop into contenders by the
district 23-AA meet on
April 11.
Senior, Tommy Brooks
will be the Wildcats’ main-
stay on the cinders this
season, expecially through
the early meets in March.
Brooks took first place in
the 180-yard low hurdles
although he failed to place
in that event in the district
meet last spring after a

Junior Eddie Crain is the
only other returner this
year to earn a letter last
year. Crain took fourth
place in the district high
jump with a 5’ 8” leap.
Forehand will take his
squad to the Livingston in-
vitational meet on March 7
to kick things off. After
that, the Cats will run in
meets through the April
11 district meet. The re-
gional meet is down for
the weekend of April 25
with the state meet to fol-
low the first weekend in
May.
Two lettermen off last
year’s team are still in
school, but will not com-
pete this year. Eddie
Krouse, who was second in
the broad jump in district
last year, is ineligible and
Gary Francis, who was
first in the district high
jump and fifth in state,
is not out.
“We’re going to be
young,” Forehand ex-
plains. “We’ll be building
for next year and the next
year and the year after
that.”
“I look for Brooks to do
a pretty good job for us,”
he continued, “and maybe
some of the other kids will
come through, too.”
Looking ahead to dis-
trict 23-AA competition,
Forehand said he looks for

again this year.
“I’d say it will be Lib-
erty with Hardin-Jefferson
pushing them and every-
body else scrambling for
what’s left.”
While listing his track
schedule, Forehand noted
one meet date is still ten-
tative. That is the Trinity
Valley Relays in Liberty
on March 26.

VETERANS ,
Q — When will the 1964|
GI insurance dividend be
paid?
A — The VA will pay
the 1964 GI insurance div-
idend to eligible policy-
holders between January 2
and January 15, 1964.
Q — How many young
men and women are taking
advantage of the War Or-
phans Educational Assis-
tance program administer-
ed by the VA?
A — About 20,000 are
enrolled in colleges and
schools at the present time.
Q — Do we have a re-
ciprocal agreement with
some Allied nations that
veterans of their armed
forces may be treated in
a VA .hospital?
A — Yes, but these gov-
ernments reimburse the
VA for this care just as
the United States must re-
imburse these nations for
care of a U.S. veteran.
Q — As a veteran, I
plan to be buried in a
National Cemetery. Can
my wife be buried there,
too?
A — Yes. Should your
wife die before you, she
may also be buried in a
national cemetery, provid-
ed you give written inten-
tion that you plan to be
buried there at the time of
your death.
Q — If a veteran has
named his mother as bene-
ficiary of his insurance and
then marries and has chil-
dren, will his new family or
his mother receive the in-
surance money in case he
dies?
A — The VA is requir-
ed by law to pay the in-
surance proceeds t o the
designated beneficiary. In
this case, the insurance
money would go to his
mother.
