arrested ranged in age from, 21
to 2fi and that all were charged
for violations of the controlled
substances act. “
He said that the raids netted
“a large amount of marijuana
and seeds” and some items that
“we are checking to find out if
they’re stolen.” A large
quantity of drug paraphernalia
was also confiscated. ' “
Lewis .said many of the of-
ficers were off-duty but came in,
to provide sufficient manpower
‘for the effort.
Detective Randy Whittle said
that the raiding force was
divided into three.....teams.
"We’ve had some problems in
the past but we set it up in
almost a military operation last
night everything went like
clockwork,” he said Wed-
nesday.
He said the raids are still
under investigation ar\d that
oilier charges anight be for-
thcoming.
“■I’d rather not release any
names of those arrested or any
details of what we uncovered
last night,” Lewis said Thur-
sday-morning. “Let’s just say*
that we had good information
and that we recovered evidence
at the locations we searched.”
The raiding force of about 20
law . enforcement officers
searched the residences for
approximately two hours before
ending their on-scene work.
“We’re going to be doing a
whole lot more of this in the
future,” Whittle said. “We’re
beginning to get more in-
formation on drug activity.
We’ll never be able to stop all of
the drug traffic but we’re trying
to slow it down.”
“Any. time- any potential
violation of the law comes to our
attention, we’ll use whatever
resources this office has to try
to stop it,’’ Chapman said
Thursday morning. "We are
committed to the enforcement
of the drug laws of this state.”
“We do have a drug problem
here. It’s the same in any city or
town in the United States,’’ said
Police Chief Delbert Harrell,
"we’re just trying to do
something about it."

Tax shelters await

Ag scholarship
COLLEGE STATION -
Many tax advarftagfc in the
form of tax shelters exist for
real estate investors “in the
know.”
“A tax shelter can mean the
difference between a needless
payment to Uncle Sam and
money in the pocket," points
out Dr. Richard Floyd,
associate director of the Texas
Real Estate Research Center,
Texas A&M University System.
“All of us want to pay our fair
share of taxes, but we also want
to take advantage of our legal
rights to reduce our individual
tax burden.”
Real estate investments
provide three opportunities to
shelter income produced from
other sources, says the
economist. These are
depreciation, interest deduc-
tions related to mortgage
payments, and income sub-
jected to capital gains tax
rather than income tax.
The Internal Revenue Service

Poerner blasts Temple
for negative campaign
John Ring of Route 3, a senior
at Sulphur Springs High School,
was announced Thursday as the
winner of a $250 scholarship
awarded annually by the
Hopkins County Agriculture
Workers Association. '
Ring, who plans to pursue a
college major in the area of
agriculture, is expecting to
enroll in East Texas State
University this fall. He is in-
terested in dairying and swine
production.
The 20-year-old scholarship
winner moved to Texas from
Massachusetts four years ago.

Poerner also charged a
Temple television ad-
vtrtMMaent concerning coal
bwhng rates is misleading. In
the ad. Temple says Poerner
has done nothing to stop large
■creases m (he cost of bringing
oafofotate coal into Texas.
"Temple has persisted in

AMONG THOSE CALLING
for a crash program to
develop alternate sources of
fael is Saudi Oil Minister
Ahmed Zaki Yamani.
He is the son of I.arry and
Margaret Ring, who also have
six other children.
Ring has been active in both
4-H Club and Future Farmers of
America programs in high
school.
The selection of Ring for the
scholarship was made at the
breakfast meeting of the Ag
Workers group Thursday
following an earlier screening
report that had reduced the
field of candidates to three.
Monty Teel, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Marion Teel, was named
as alternate winner of the
scholarship if Ring does not
elect to attend college this fall.
Teel plans to attend Texas A&M
University, where he already
has qualified for another
scholarship.
The scholarship selection is
based upon outstanding
achievement, leadership, and
scholarship with consideration
being given to need.
Ira Black presided at the
breakfast meeting during which
several other business items
were handled.
