NAZIS POUND GUILTY, RECEIVE SENTENCES—Pictured are five Nazis who were
found guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity by the International' Mili-
tary Tribunal at Nuernberg, Germany. The five pictured and those whose names
are in inset, lower rightt, all received death sentences. Seven of the twenty-two Nazis
tried were given life terms, while three, Franz von -Papen; ITjalmar Schacht; Hans
Fritsche were aquitted.

ed Indians a narrow margin of

The red jerseyed Lions swarmed
all over the Indians all through
the game, holding them in check !
when they neared pay dirt. Early
in the game a series of Lion pen-
alties gave the Indians a first
down on the Ennis 5. But try as
they would they- could not push
over the Ennis double stripe. With
only about 1-foot to go on fourth
down, Stollenwerck was stopped
cold and the Lions punted out of
danger.
The heavy Waxahachie line held
the Ennis offense in check, throttl-
ing them to a lone first down in
the game, but on the other hand
they were unable to move the
Ennis line. Both teams played
great defensive games. The heavy

reprieve from the hangman’s rope.
The 11 men under death sentence
by the International Tribunal had
-.....nothing to do but sit and await
Oct 16. The trial excitement was
over, their gallery gone. They had
no pi'ospect of seeing their fam-
ilies again.
Eevry thing indicated that any
clemency appeals they make to the
Allied control council before the
Saturday midnight deadline would
be only for the record.
Without neckties, razor blades
knives, breakable furniture—any-
thing they might use to commit
suicide—the 11 were restricted to
their cells 23 hours each day. The
other hour was for rigidly guard-
ed exercise.
Every minute in their 325-odd
- remaining hours of life the con-
demned will be under the guard-
ian eyes of American soldiers peer-
ing- at them through square peep-
holes in their cell doors. They
will not evn , be permitted their
eyeglasses when alone.
The executions will be carried
out in Nuernberg, where the Nazis
sat for 11 months through the
trial that yesterday condemned
them for plotting aggressive war
-and crimes against humanity. A
council spokesman said the seven
men underp rison sentence will be
brought to „ Berlin to serve their
terms ranging from- 10 years to
life. He said he could not name
their prison for security reasons.
Franz von Papen, Hjalmar Sch-
acht' and Hans Fritzsche, the three
acquitted defendants, spent the
night in unlocked rooms in the
Nuernberg jail. American security
officials feared for the safety of
the three men if they .-were to
travel from Nuernberg at night.
Von Papen’s lawyer asked an
escort to the British zone for the
farmer Nazi diplomat. Schacht was
■expected to seek similar protection,
but Fritzsche’s plans were uncer-
tain. There was a possibility the
men might be prosecuted under de-
Nazifocation regulations if they
remained in the American zone.

An orphan boy who got his" start
running an elevator in the Texas
State Capital some 24 years ago
has reamed the top level of Texas
politics as chairman of the State
'Democratic Executive Committee.
He is 41 year old Riobert V/. Cal-
vert, a tall and lean Hill County
lawyer known as Ebb to his friends
and a man with an enviable rec-
ord of service to Texas.
Calvert’s full name is Robert
Wilburn Calvert. He was born in
Tennessee, and his widowed moth-
er brought him to Texas and plac-
ed him in the State Orphans
Home at Corsicana.
Even as an orphan, Bob Calvert
was outstanding. He played foot-
ball, basketball, and baseball, and
represented the orphan home at
county and district debating con-
tests.
'Calvert helped work his way
through the University of Texas
by running the Capitol elevator.
He won his law degree in 1931 and
started practicing law at Hillsboro.
Before long, the young lawyer
was in politics. He won election
as a state representative and in
the 45th Legislature was named
speaker of the house. Calvert was
a leader of the loyal Democrats in
the battle in 1944 with anti-Roo-
sevelt Texas Regulars and he was
prominently mentioned as a poten-
tial candidate for governor this
year. .:
But Calvert chose to follow the
middle-lane “People’s Path” pro-
gram of Beauford Jester, and,
when Jester won the Democratic
nomination for governor, he en-
dorsed Calvert as his choice to
head the state committee.

Washington, Sept. 25. (U.P.) —
One of the best bargains offered
by the federal government in years
meeting a stone wall in the En-
nis line. Ennis threatened only
one time, that being in the third
quarter when they drove to the
Indian 30.
Taking the ball early in the
fourth quarter Waxahachie start-
ed a march down the field from
their ■ own 42. They drove down
to the Ennis 11 yard line but there
the Lions tightened again and
\ rushed them so badly that they
| furribleid and Essaryi recovered on
f the Lion 21. It was at this point
that Ennis was rushed and fumbl-
ed giving the Indians the ball
deep in Lion territory.
Stollenwerck, Boatman, Howard
and Allen all played the full game
for the Indians in the backfield
and did a good job. The Ennis
line from end to end did an ex-
cellent job. They were driving

performances. Outstanding was
the work of the two Ennis tackles,
Wilson and Essary. The ends,
Springfield and E. Roberts were
stopping the Indian end runs and
the (guards, Shaw and Lovell,
stopped them through the center.
Glaspy and Crow also played heads
up ball backing the line.
Late in the 3rd quarter an En-
nis lineman crashed through to
block a second quick kick and af-
ter scrambling for the ball, Boat-

on the Lion 12. Had Ennis re-

Most Ennis fans agreed that the
Lions have a scrapping ball team,
capable of playing good football
against any team. Waxahachie
fans came to Ennis expecting to
walk away with the game and
felt lucky indeed to get a win last
night.
A slight drizzle fell during parts
of the game making the ball
slippery and hard to handle. The
