Brief notes: Forreat Gregg
Jr. has signed a letter of intent
to pursue his collegiate football
career at SMU, where his
fatter — the new coach of the
Cincinnati Bengals — played
before his brilliant all-pro days
with the Green Bay Packers ...
Hie senior Gregg was an all-
around athlete for the Wildcats
during his high school days in
Sulphur Springs... Dr. Bennett
Vaculik, who is comparatively
new to Sulphur Springs,
dropped by the office early the
other morning to transact some
business... Somehow, we were
under the impression that he
was a veterinarian ... “Do you
treat small animals?” we
asked. He smiled warmly and
replied: “I’m a dentist." ...
Walter Mosby has called at-
tention to the early morning
and late afternoon flights of
huge flocks of birds which have
been nesting west of Lake
Sulphur Springs ... The birds
are believed to be grackles ...
There’s a big sports event
scheduled in Mount Vernon on
April 12. It’s being called the
Catfish Smith Roast and
carries a $25 per head ticket
cost.
More notes: It costs a great
deal more to play a flute these
days, especially if you are
buying a solid silver in-
strument. Kenneth McKay
noted that one of the small
musical instruments that
formerly sold for $1,095 has
jumped to $2,345, reflecting the
metals market capers ...
Former Sulphur Springs
resident and now senior editor
with the Readers Digest is John
Barron, who may be interested
in this observation: We
overheard awoman asking for a
copy of nis new book, MiG 15, in
a Dallas book store the other
-..J.'.: ■ -L U_L. '.'-I'-.H
day. The book is due out
momentarily but the store had
not received any copies ... The
Readers Digest recently:,
carried a condensation of the
book about the Soviet pilot who -
defected with his aircraft _.
Rumors are being heard that ,
Herman (Sleepy) Morgan and..'
his wife, Lucille, are planning '
to return to Sulphur Springs to
make their home. Morgan, a:
member of the famed 1929
Wildcat football team, had been
a long-time member of the .
athletic coaching staff at SMU ,
before retiring. Sleepy un-
derwent an operation several
weeks ago and is reported
recuperating nicely.
Last notes: Dallas stock
broker Doug MiUer recently
purchased a 673-acre spread in
the northwest section of
Hopkins County and reportedly
u> planning a cattle operation ...
The spread, once known as the
Jack Henderson ranch and
more recently owned by
Charles and Lewis Helm, was
improved with the addition of
three lakes and other at-
tractions before The Kennedy
Co. sold it to Miller ... The
Hopkins County Dairy Festival,
which has been updated to
April this year, will feature a
number of beautiful girls and
pretty floats ... Also taking the
spotlight at the Dairy Pageant
will be a couple of young and
talented singers from the
University of Texas-Arlington,
and one of them is Cal Brim ...
Steve Whitworth, a fiscal of-
ficer with Rockwell In-
ternational in Kearney, Neb.,
will return home to serve as
master of ceremonies for the
colorful event which will be
staged in the Hopkins County
Regional Civic Center on
Saturday night, April 19.
