short while later it was noticed
that she had quit breathing and was
rushed to the local hospital, where

parently had been in good health

could have been the result of any
one of a number of causes.

tery and were conducted by Rev-
erend Walter T. Gigstad, chaplain

to the banquet, and the chapter
sweetheart, Randy Outlaw, a junior
student and daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Clyde Outlaw, was presented
with an official FFA sweetheart
jacket by John Mitchell, chapter
treasurer. Carroll Draper, chapter
president, served as master of cere-
monies for the affair.
Highlight of the evening for the
group was when Bob Rhudy, Bos-
que County Game Warden, gave an
address concerning deer and other
forms of Central Texas wildlife.
Mr. Rhudy made the statement
that because of the screwworm era-
dication program the deer popula-
tion of Bosque County will increase
rapidly and may double itself with-
in five years. He also pointed out
that some of the land in this coun-
ty brings more income to landown-
ers when left with its natural cover,
so that deer may thrive there, than
when it is cleared for pasture. The
fee owners charge persons to hunt
there during the deer season is
greater than the profit made as
the result of grazing cattle on the
land the year-around.
Other subjects included in Mr.
Rhudy’s address were Bob-White
quail, stocking tanks with fish, and
poisonous snakes. He also present-
ed a very interesting 30-minute
film on the history of deer in Texas
to conclude the banquet program.
Usual FFA Chapter awards,
which previously have been made
at this annual banquet, will be pre-
sented at a later date this year, as
the awards did not arrive in time
for the banquet last week.
