Dear Mr. Read:
On April 30, in the Pine
Needle Newspaper there ap-
peared “A Letter To the Edi-
tor” signed Robert Ward with
no address.
This letter accused the other
papers in the county of trying
to hide the truth. Which I do
not believe. I admire you and
the fact that you do not try to
persuade people to think upon
matters the way you think.

As my name is also Robert
Ward, 1 have been teased and
jeered about the letter and
have been embarrassed and
ashamed that my friends
thought I would write a letter
of that nature, I am not old
enough to vote so therefore I
have very little interest in the
election.
I sincerely hope you will
publish this letter stating that
Robert Ward, 20-year-old son
of Mr. and Mrs. Sim Ward,
owner and operator of Ward’s

How to save money regularly,
In spite of yourself
Just ask your paymaster for a
card like the one above, and fill it
out.
This makes you an official mem-
ber of the Payroll Savings Plan,
entitled to all the rights and priv-
ileges thereof.
From now on saving money is
no problem. Every payday, your
employer sets aside a little from
your check and puts it toward the
purchase of a U. S. Savings Bond.
Your savings come automatically.
There’s no temptation. No back-
sliding.
You can get your savings whea
you need them. But, of course*
they’ll be worth 3314% more If
you wait until your Bonds reach
maturity.
Being a Payroll Saver entitles
you to feel pretty proud of your-
self, too. Because your savings
help protect your country’s future
as they help provide for your own.
Why not talk to your employer
and get started Baying regularly
this payday ? You’ll be amazed at
your new perseverance.
Keep freedom in your future with

In other business conducted
at the Tuesday session, the
Lions heard reports from the
various committee chairmen
concerning club projects and
activities during the current
year. Among the projects spon-
sored by the local Lions is the
recently formed Sea Scout Unit
in Silsbee, Sea Explorer Ship
No. 203. The Club’s Crippled

will replace the present Silsbee
High and will be located on a
15-acre tract next to the pres-
ent high school baseball di
amond. It will be a compact
one - story, air conditioned
building containing 40 teaching
stations, accordng to Supt. Don
L. Hough. Science laboratories,
library, home economics labs
commercial subject rooms, gym
and shop rooms are all consid-
ered to be teaching stations as
well as home rooms.
Supt. Hough has said that the
unit will be of sufficient size to
house almost 1100 students. He
estimates that the top four
grades will contain over 900
students during the next school
year
The other new school is pro-
posed to be located on the cam-
pus at Frank Robinson Ele-
mentary school. It will replace
the present Waldo Mathews
School and will also contain the
top four grades. This building
will contain 16 teaching units.
Like the larger proposed Sils-
bee High, it will be a compact,
air-conditioned structure.
Silsbee’s school organization
will be revamped from the bot
tom up, according to Supt
Hough, if the bond issue passes
and the propo&d schools are
built.
Grades one through four will
be housed on the present Read-
Turrentine and Kirby elemen-
tary school campuses, grades
five and six at the present ju-
nior high, grades seven and
eight at the present Silsbee
High, and the ninth through
twelfth in the new Silbbee
High.
Grades one through five will
be at the present Frank Robin
son school, six through eight on
the present Waldo Mathews
campus, and the top four cur-
rently at Waldo Mathews will
be in the proposed high school
on the Frank Robinson campus.
Both of the proposed build-
ings have been designed to be
added to in the future with the
least amount of trouble, accord-
ing to George Ingram, archi-
tect.
James C. Tucker Co., of Aus-
tin, the school district’s fiscal
agent, has advised the board
that taxes will have to be rais-
ed a total of 28 percent. This
figure was based on the current
valuation of $28,600,000 and
tax rate of $1.65 per $100 valu-
ation.
Total valuation of the district
will be increased to $35 million
and the rate increased to $1.75
per $100 valuation, according to
the fiscal agent
Alf Fullingim, president of
the school board, has said that
the trustees have tried to plan
the budding needs of the dis-
trict wi\h the least expense to
the taxpayers in the long run.
He stated that any adding on to
the current buildings would
have to be done again within
another year and would actu-
ally cost more than the two new
air conditioned units.
Texas Legislature entered the
May 2 primaries with a strong
expression of support for pub-
lic school needs.
More than three-fourths (77.1
percent) of the 441 candidates
for the Texas House and Sen-
ate replied to a Texas State
Teachers Association question-
naire on six education ques-
..U.JVUV ........Response was OVer-
Mitchell. Bean polled 5835 whelmingly favorable to the
- — TSTA proposals.
A report of the individual re-
plies to the questionnaire were
concluded in the May issue of
the “Texas Outlook,” TSTA
magazine. Earlier replies were
carried in the April issue.
Major plank in the TSTA
program calls for a $45 per
month increase in the mini-
mum salary for public school
teachers. This proposal, called
“$45 for ’65” by teachers, is to
be presented to the 59th Legis-
lature next January.
Of the 340 legislative candi-
dates and 12 holdover senators
replying, 265 gave an unquali-
fied “yes" on the salary in-
crease. Another 47 said “yes ’
with a condition, three said
“no,” while the remainder were
undecided or had no comment.
A minimum sick leave plan
for teachers was endorsed by
an even stronger margin. A re-
gional film program for schools
was endorsed, but by a lesser
margin.
The candidates also pledged
support in defense of the Per-
manent School Fund, the se-
lection of textbooks, and the
standards lor entering the
teaching profession.
Candidates for governor and
lieutenant governor also re-
sponded favorably to the ques-
tionnaire.
TSTA Exec. Secy. Charles H.
Tennyson editorially commend-
ed legislative candidates “for
taking the time—and the op-
portunity—to study these mat-
ters and to give their views.”
Joe B. McNiel, Wichita Falls
superintendent of schools and
chairman of the TSTA legisla-
tive committee, added his ap-
preciation to candidates for
making their positions known.
Of the 35 candidates for the
15 Senate positions on the bal-
lot this year, 29 responded. This
gave an 82.9 percent return.
In addition, 12 of the 16 sena-
torial incumbents not up for
election this year answered and
their replies are not included
in tabulations.
And 311 of the 406 House
candidates answered the ques
tionnaire, giving a return of
76.6 percent.
Candidates from the Demo-
cratic party had an 83.2 percent
return, while 54.3 percent of
office, took high count of the
votes, 1285, but will be in the
runoff election on June 6 with
Virgil L. Caraway, 1122. Milton
R. McKinney polled 832 -from
the Silsbee-Caney Head pre-
cinct and I. T. Odom had 186.
The Precinct 3 County Com-
missioner’s battle will also be
decided with a runoff. E. E.
Cotton, the incumbant, totaled
176 of the votes in that district
but will have to face Houston
Fields, with 120, on June 6.
Fields was followed closely by
Joe D. Hunt, 117, and L. R.
Taylor, 115. Clint Walston was
the last man with 56 votes. This
precinct includes Saratoga, Vo-
taw, Thicket, Batson.
In the eight-man Sheriff’s
race, Ira W. Moore and Henry
Overstreet will face each other
in the second primary runoff.
Moore polled 2577 votes
county - wide to Overstreet’s
1508. E. W. Coleman was third
with 915 votes, Howard Har-
grove fourth with 832; then
Olan H. Davis, 733; Tommie D.
Easley, 581; Don L. Hawthorne,
297; and O. P. Roden, 97. This
race was thrown wide open
early in the year when the late
Sheriff Whit Whitaker an-
nounced that he would not run
for re-election.
E. Ricks won the constable’s
race in precinct 2 at Chance-
Loeb. He collected 511 votes to
307 for Walter Baer.
A lively writein campaign for
constable of precinct 5 in Sils-
bee developed. John Gibson
polled six votes and Edgar A.
Eaves, three. Silsbee has not
voted on a constable for sever-
al years.
Runoffs in all the contested
offices will be held in the Se-
cond Democratic Primary elec-
tion on Saturday, June 6.

12 Held Af County
Jail The Past Week
Chief Deputy Dave Rountree
with the Hardin county sher-
iff’s department reported that
the county jail had the “slow-
est business this year,” during
the past week.
Only 12 persons were held at
the jail during that period, sev-
en of which were for being
drunk and disorderly, Rountree
reported.
Of the others held, one was
for driving while license sus-
pended, two for game viola-
tions, and two for traffic viola-
tions.
Rountree said that the two
men booked for game violations
were caught with a .22 caliber
rifle and headlights at night in
the eastern part of the county.
The deputy said the men claim-
ed to be hunting rabbits, but
were still violating the law by
hunting with the headlights
where deer are known to roam.

Jasper's Bulldogs had to go
an extra inning here Tuesday
before breaking a 0-0 tie with
the Silsbee Tigers and winning
3-0.
Philip Hennigan is credited
with the win after a tight
mound duel with Tiger pitcher
Robert Hare. Both hurlers went
the distance for their teams
and allowed only two runs
apiece.
Hennigan struck out 13 and
walked one. Hare decisioned
eight and issued three bases on
balls.
Buddy Upshaw worked all
eight innings in the catcher
spot for the Silsbee team.
The loss leaves the Tigers in
the next to the cellar spot in
District 9-3A with 1-4 record.
Jasper is tied for second with
Orange on three wins and two
losses while Nederland leads
with 4-1. Vidor is fourth with
2-3 and Bridge City is in the
cellar with no wins.
The game Tuesday ended the
first round of play for the dis-
trict crown in the double
round-robin schedule.
Today (Thursday) the Tigers
start the second round againsl
Bridge City, there, with a good
chance to improve their stand-
ings, accordihg to Coach H. C.
Muckleroy.
Muckleroy praised the bat-
tery of Hare and Upshaw as
being one of the best in the dis-
trict. He said that hitting had
been the weak point in the Ti-
ger. team the whole year. He
added that if his team could
ever bunch their hits, instead
of spreading them, out, they
would be scoring much better
than they are at present.
Likely starting pitcher for
today’s game will be either
Gerald Walker or Howard Har-
rison with Upshaw behind the
plate.
