SPORTS
By Johnny Britsch
OWL TEAMS TAKE SHAPE
The Hondo Owls concluded their first week
of practice last Friday and split into the vari-
ous teams to shape up for a rather optimistic
year.
Competition is keen for the filling of the
backfield berths for the Owls, while the de-
fense may prove to be tougher than expected.
Going through these practices with the Owls
are head Coach A. J. Viertel, line coach Guy
Dillion, B-team coach Dale Lusk, and new-
comers James Bohles and Danny Keath. Bohles
is a graduate of Texas Lutheran College and
will coach the backfield for the Owls, while
Keath will hold down the freshman mentor's
job. Keath is a graduate of Texas A & I.
FOUR HOMERS
CINCH AZTEC VICTORY
Two homers by Charles Fusselman and hom-
ers by Buddy Jones and Jaok Hartung carried
the Hondo Aztecs to a 13-10 victory over the
Uvalde All-Stars Sunday afternoon.
Rodriguez with a single and a homer and
Zamora with two singles and a double, led the
Uvalde hitters.
The Aztecs racked up 13 hits off three U-
valde hurlers. Aviles, the Uvalde starter, was
charged with the loss.
Reliable Pepper Urrutia came up with a sin-
gle and a double to join Fusselman, who col-
lected two singles along with his homer.
Fusselman and Urrutia are engaged in a
tight batting and slugging duel. Fusselman has
a .388 batting average with 5 homers, while
Urrutia is batting .370 and has 6 homers.
Jessie Cardenas registered his first win de-
spite numerous Aztec errors and misjudgmertts.
Cardenas went seven and a third innings before
leg trouble caused him to give way to Buddy
Jones.
Next Sunday the Aztecs travel to uvaide for
a return game against the All-Stars.

Social Socurlty
Medicare was not the only change in the so-
cial security laws, James E. Forbus, acting dis-
trict manager stated today. One major change
was in the requirements for disability payment*
Under the new law the disability does not
have to be permanent. If the condition is ex-
pected to last at least 12 months or more, a
person can qualify for disability benefits if he
is otherwise eligible.
Forbus pointed out that there has been no
change in the other requirements for monthly
disability benefits.
The present requirements are as follows (1)
The Individual must be unable to do any kind
of su|Munti«l work. |2) Heittt)*t worked
in employment covered by social security for
at least 5 of the 10 years before becoming dis-
abled. (3) There must be medical reports to
establish his disability. (4) The disability
must be expected to last 12 consecutive
months or more. (5) No benefits are payable
for the first 6 months of disability.
IN HONDO SEPT. 1
Forbus stated that anyone whose claim was
disallowed because his disability was not per-
manent should consult his social security rep-
resentatives, Jack Jones and Joe Reeves, who
will be in Hondo at the District Courtroom on
Thursday, September 1 at 2 p.m.

IOCAI tUSINESS
ADVERTISING IS
LIFEBLOOD
OF MERCHANDISING
General Motors is the largest business in the
world in terms of sales volume and profits. The
company also is the largest user of newspaper
advertising among manufacturers.
Sears is the largest reta i 1 business in the
world. It is also the largest user of retail news-
paper advertising in the world.
The relationship of bigness and successful mer-
chandising to the use of newspaper advertising
is no coincidence. Sears and General Motors
have grown big over the decades as the result of
consistent appeal to the cQosutnfi: on the loculi,
level.
*U' >■
Such great national'Companies have enorm-
ous facilities for testing the worth of their ad-
vertising efforts. They give every method of
advertising a fair trial before investing millions
of dollars. They continue to increase their
newspaper advertising year after year.
Their sales have increased accordingly. The
result Is a constant reminder that all sales are
local. No business grows so large that it can
forget the individual consumer and the factors
which cause him to make a final buying deci-
sion.
Conversely, no company is so small it can
overlook the processes which lead to growth.
Indeed the small local firm has more chance
than giant national enterprises to profit from lo-
cal newspaper advertising.
Newspaper advertising is more economical
for the small local store than for the national
firm.
Because of his specialized knowledge of the
community, the local retailer should be able
to do a better selling job with less space. And
because people are truly interested in the suc-
cess of a local firm , they will patronize it
when advertising proves that the local store is
competitive.
10 YEARS AGO 1956
Much variation occurred in the amount of
rainfall recorded in Medina County last Sunday

mount reported fell at Medina Lake--3.8 inch-
es was recorded there. Rio Medina recorded

two and one-half inches. Castrbville recorded
two inches while four miles north of Castro-
ville, three and one-half inch** wai recorded.

High School football coach Tom Bridges is
in Corpus Christi this week attending the Texas
coaching school. Assistant James Roy Kile is

and then spent four years in the Marines, but
will resume teaching this fall.
30 YEARS AGO 1936
Feathers will be in high Style this fall. Ladies
will have to increase their vocabularies to in-
clude such terms as COQ feathers, which means
the tail feathers of a rooster and Coquille, the
short body feather of a goose. Black leghorn
hats for late summer are trimmed with gray os-
trich feathers and the new season will be form-
alized by elegant ostrich plumes,
40 YEARS AGO 1926
Quite a number from here attended a picnic
at the Echtle grove below LaCoste last Sunday.
A big dinner, band music, and public speaking
were among the main features >of the day.
Speaking at the request of thti management
were Judge L. J. Brucks and Cdunty Judge R. J.
Noonan. Judge Brucks delivered a masterly dis-
course on the fundamentals of our republican
form of government, giving wholesome instruc-
tion on one’s duty as a citizen. Judge Noonan
gave a lucid review of the gieat achievements
of Mrs. Ferguson's gubernatorial administration
and pointed out specifically where the people
of Medina County owe her a large debt or gra-
titude for having granted them many favors. It
is expected that,the voters of Medina Valley
will do the handsome thing by rolling up an o-
verwhelming majority for Mrs, Ferguson in her
bid for re-election to a second term.
