Award in Baptist
Achievement Program
Dallas—Conducting the first
youth revival in its history and
providing recreation for ita
young people helped the Ar-
lam Baptist Church near Nac-
ogdoches earn the district
award in the 1980 Texas Bap-
tist Church Achievement pro-
gram.
Two professions of faith re-
sulted from the youth revival
The 81-member congregation
also sponsored an extension
program to bring the Sunday
school lessons into the homes
of aged and 31 neighbors.
The Ariam church's ministry
to the youth was among 29
projects which it sponsored in
an effort to build a better
church, a better community
and a better world.
As the representative of Dis-
trict 2 in the Church Achieve-
program, the church will be
honored during the annual
Baptist General Convention of
Texas meeting at Lubbock,
Oct 31-Nov. 2.

graphic areas in the state pro-
moting the Church Achieve-
ment program, includes 263

PASSING THE TORCH
MWWWWWWWVWWWVMWVVWWWWWMIW
The ancient Greeks had a
ceremonial foot-race called
“Passing the Torch.'’ Their
swiftest runners carried a
lighted torch and passed it
burning, into the hands of the
next relay of runners, some-
times from city to city, until it
reached its goal.
In our nation, we have an
annual event carrying a simi-
lar idea—a path of light to-
ward a goal. However, in this
event, no physical exertion is
involved—only faith. The oc-
casion b National Bide Week.
The twentieth annual ob-
servance of Bible Week takes
place October 17-23. The
theme for the week is, “The
Bible—Strength • at oar Na-
tion.”
Former President Herbert
Hoover b serving as honorary
national chairman for the week
and Edward C. Werle, chair-
man of the board of the New
York Stock Exchange, b na-
tional chairman.
Thb year also marks the
twentieth anniversary of the
Laymen's National Committee,
the interfaith organization
which sponsors the week. The
first observance of Bible Week
began on December 7,1941, a
date that shall endure in our
history. Today, we are again
confronted with an interna-
tional crisis. Full participation
by our people in National Bible
Week will help us to keep the
’faith handed down by our
Founding Fathers.
SHELBYVILLE
TIE 0-0
(By Gilbert Rhodes)
The underdog Timpson
Bears fought the highly-re-
garded Shelbyville Dragons to
a 0-0 tie before a large home-
coming crowd in Boar Stadium
last Friday night. The Bears
led in penetration* 2 to 0 and
will be considered the winner
in case of a tie with She) byvilie
for the district championship.
In the first period, neither
team was able to advance the
ball and a rugged deftnatvs
battle loomed ahead, limp-
son’s first penetration came
early in the second quarter as
the Bears marched 75 yards to
the Dragon 3 yard line where
the hall waa lost on downs. A
Bear 6 yard penalty near the
goal line practically killed the
drive and waa perhaps the de-
ciding factor in the ball game.
Shelbyville tried to rack np
a touchdown before halftime
and came very close to suc-
ceeding with long passes. The
threat ended in a tingle of ex-
citement as the gun sounded to
signal that time had ran out.
In the third quarter, Timp-
son again surged inside the
Shelbyville 20 yard line hot
the Bear offense failed to mus-
ter a scoring punch and, as be-
fore, lest the bell on fourth
down. Shelbyville begin to
move in the Utter moments of
the final quarter with Quar-
terback Calvin Cannon blast-
ing tbe way to the Timpaon 30
yard line. From thb point, an
attempted screen pass was bat-
ted high into the air by dsfen-
aive Lineman Dow McWil-
liams and then intercepted by
190 lb. Bear Tackle Coy Lane
Kimbro. who returned the ball
to the Timpson 47 yard line.
Timpson then proceeded to use
up the clock’s remaining sec-
onds and emerge the winner
over e surprised Shelbyville
eleven, 2 to 0. Of course, the
game b tabled a tie by the
usual proceedurea but the
Bean are not in doubt of who
won the exciting game.
Haifbaek Hal Horton
the outstanding ball carrier
with 70 net yards gained in 19
carries for a 3.8 avenge.
Backs Bob Bass, Jim Powers,
end Bobby Bushier were also
outstanding for their offensive
accomplishments, Albert Brid-
weli and Johnny Bush led the
fierce Bear defenalve line com-
posed of Robert Burns, Calvin
Smith, Joe Peters, Charles
Simpson and Koy Kimbro aa
the potent Dragon offensive at-
