Cuff Notes
— AmibUiI by —
JOE WOOSLEY
•rtsf Wtes: Jeff Taylor,
Hopkins County tax amssor-
collector, says new laws
reqNre a more detailed break-
down of information on tax
statements this year ... So,
when the new statements are
mailed for taxes which may be
paid in October, he is urging
property owners to read the
statements carefully ... One of
the new changes, for example,
requires a separation of the
value of a house and the land on
which it is situated ... Since
there is no change in the tax
rate or values this year, the
bottom line concerning taxm
due will be unchanged in most
cases ... So don’t let the extra
figure* prove a puzxlewba you
receive a statement... Also the
market values on farm lands
will be projected as another bit
of information although
agricultural exemptions may
be claimed.
Mere notes: If you happened
to read an article by Sally
Reynolds Barton in the Sep-
tember issue of Family Circle,
here’s a local angle: she is die
niece of Tip Sparks of Sulphur
Springs. Her mother is the
former Sarah Sparks, now Mrs.
R.G. Reynolds of Amarillo ...
Wolfe City’s schools had to
reverse procedures late in the
week. They borrowed buses
from area churches... Four of
die Wolfe City school system’s
buses and a storage building
were destroyed in a fire to
bring about the emergency
situation... T. Cass Tollaferro
recently transferred Us law
office to Mount Vernon. The UT
Law School graduate earlier
had prosecution experience
with a DA office in the
metroplex ... Donna Smith, a
graduate of Miller Grove High
School, is a new employee of
The News-Telegram ... The
Rev. Marvin Robinson, a
distinguished graduate of the
old Douglas High School in
Sulphur Springs, was a visitor
in town a few days this week
before returning to Pasadena,
CaUf. He recently returned
from another trip to the Holy
Lands ... He did a little
preliminary planning with local
friends about a proposed
reunion of Douglas High
graduates next year.
Last notes: Herman (Sleepy)
Morgan, one of the nation’s
premier college football
recruiters, will soon be
returning to his native Sulphur
Springs to reside ... He has
covered a great deal of ground
since Us high school days in
Sulphur Springs, where he was
a member of the great 1929
Wildcat team... Later, he was
captain at ETSU the first year
the Lions won the Lone Star
Conference... Then came seven
years at Mount Vernon, a move
to Highland Park, and thence to
SMU, where he has been
associated as a coach, recruiter
and fund raiser for some 30
years ... Morgan has many
great memories about his
athletic assocation ... In a
recent conflab, he recalled that
Hopkins County’s Sheriff
Junior Tittle was a star end on
his 1938 undefeated football
team at Mount Vernon ...
Morgan says without a moment
of hesitation that Bo Campbell,
another Mount Vernon star,
was the greatest place4dcker
he ever saw... He believes that
Campbell could have been a
truly great professional kicker
if he had come along at the
right time... Local fans recall
that Campbell kicked off in
Sulphur Springs in one game,
with the ball sailing through the
goal posts, over the fence and
onto the highway.
