Death Ends
Career of
LJ. Wyatt
Funeral and Burial
Held in Refugio
Saturday Afternoon
Judge Lee Johnson Wyatt of
Kenedy, a former resident of Re-
fugio County for more than half
a century, passed away in this
city last Friday morning at 7:45
o’clock, at the home of his daugh-
ter, Mrs, 25. W. Coward. Death j
was due to a complication of j
diseases aggravated by advanced ]
age, for he was 79 years, four
months and 27 days old.
Although a resident of Kenedy
for the 10 years prior to his
death, Judge Wyatt never lost in-
terest in Refugio and the friends
he had made during his long resi-
dence here, and paid numerous
visits to this city during the pe-
riod since he moved to Kenedy. It
was while on one of these periodic
visits that he was stricken.
Judge Wyatt was bom near
Belmont, Texas, in 1861. He came
to this section when still a youth
and lived for a time at Rockport.
October 18, 1881, he was married
to Miss Annie Pauline Plummer,
member of a Refugio County pio-
neer family, at the old town of
Copano, and the most of their 59
years of married life was spent
in Refugio, where Judge Wyatt
took an active part in the relig-
ious and social life of the com-
munity.
He joined the Methodist Church
Nearly in life, but became a char-
ter member of the local Presby-
terian Church upon its organiza-
tion in 1908. For many years he
worked at the carpenter’s trade
and in 1926 was elected justice of
the peace, serving until 1930,
when he moved to Kenedy.
Funeral services, attended by a
large concourse of former friends
and neighbors, were held Saturday
afternoon at 3 o’clock at the local
Presbyterian Church, conducted
by the Rev. S. P. Riccobene, pas-
tor of the Kenedy Presbyterian
Church. He was assisted by the
Rev. C. S. Long, Presbyterian pas-
tor; the Rev. L. S. Cole, pastor of
the Refugio Baptist Church, and
the Rev. John McCormack, pastor
of the Refugio Methodist Church.
Burial was in Oakwood Cemetery,
beside the grave of his father, the
late Henry Hayden Wyatt, who
died here June 25, 1905.
Surviving are his widow; three
daughters, Mrs. E. W. Coward
and Mrs. J. E. Johnson of this
city, and Mrs. D. C. McManus of
Kenedy; one sister, Mrs. Mary
Wyatt Morre of Kansas City, Mo.;
nine grandchildren, Eddie and El-
ton Coward and Mrs. Howard
Ham of Refugio, Mrs. P. A. Lank-
ard of Bay City, Dudley C. Mc-
Manus Jr. of Beeville, Mrs. C. E.
Meier of San Antonio, Mrs. Henry
E. Mathis of Levelland, Texas, and
Misses Ruth and Mary McManus
of Kenedy, and six great-grand-
children, Pattie Mildred and Ed-
ward Coward and Gordon Chad-
well of Refugio, Mozelle Larikard
of Bay City, Dudley McManus in
of Beeville and Harriet Ann Ma-
this of Levelland.
.Active pallbearers were five
grandsons, Eddie Coward, Elton
Coward, Howard Ham, Dudley
McManus Jr. and Clifton Meier
and Homer Williams.
Arrangements were in charge
of the Refugio Funeral Home.

Mrs. Fannie Heard
Slightly Improved
The condition of Mrs. Fannie
Heard, who underwent a serious
operation Monday at the Refugio
County Hospital, was reported as
slightly improved on Wednesday
morning. It was necessary to
amputate one of her lower limbs
to relieve an infection and owing
to advanced age, her condition
has been critical.

Battalion Band
To Give Concert
At King Park
The twenty-first battalion band,
under the direction of Lieutenant
Brett Hargrove of Woodsboro,
will give a concert in King Park,
Refugio, Monday evening, May 5,
it was announced this week. The
public is invited to hear the con-
cert, which will begin at 8 o’clock
and last one hour.
The battalion band is thought
to be the only organization of its
kind in the state. *Jt is composed
of members of the State Defense
Guard of Woodsboro, Refugio and
Bonnie View, an while only a year
old, is an organization of which
all Refugio Countians may well
be proud.
Lieutenant Hargrove hopes to
continue these concerts here and
at Woodsboro during the spring
and summer months. Further an-
nouncements of time and place
will be made later.

Stadium Is
Authorized
For School
Local Board Adopts
12-Grade System;
Elects Teachers
The Refugio School Board, at
its regular meeting Tuesday eve-
ning, April 22, approved the build-
ing of a combination football sta-
dium and laboratory for shop
classes on the west campus of the
public school grounds. The sta-
dium, which will be next to the
highway, facing east, will be of
concrete and steel construction
and will comfortably seat approx-
imately 1,000 persons, it was said.
According to plans which were
drawn by local Architect I. H.
Dunbar, there will be two large
rooms underneath the stadium,
each to be approximately 21x70
feet in size, connected or adjoined
by a 10-foot corridor. The school
board will take up the matter of
equipping these rooms for shop-
work later, it was said. The floor
will be of appropriate concrete
construction.
Stadium plans are now in the
hands of National Youth Admin-
istration officials, who have al-
ready tentatively approved the
project. Final approval was ex-
pected within the next few days,
it was stated. Under an arrange-
ment with the NY A, all labor
will be furnished by this federal
government agency, and the
school board will furnish only the
necessary materials. Approxi-
mate net -local cost was set at
$7,00Q, which money is now on
hand as a leftover from the $100,-
000 1940 building project.
Work on the stadium was ex-
pected to get under way by May
1, with the project to be com-
pleted in time for the first home
football game of the high school
Bobcats early in October. Plans
call for the playing field to be

High School Plans
Third Annual
“Stunt Nite”
The third annual “Stunt Nite,”
Refugio High School’s big spring-
show, under the direction of Rob-
ert H. Renfro, is scheduled for
two nightly performances, Thurs-
day and Friday evenings, May 1
and 2, starting at 8 o’clock, in the
high school .auditorium.
The main theme of this year’s
show, which is expected to attract
the usual capacity crowds on both
nights, is the “March of Time,” .a
take-off on American history..
Eighty-fiye high shcool students
take part in the program on and
off stage during the two hours of
wholesome entertainment. Ad-
mission prices will be 15 cents for
children and 25 cents for adults,
it .was announced.
Part of the show takes place on
the stage and the remainder is
across the footlights in the audi-
ence. There are eight big acts,
featuring all available high school
talent, according to Director Ren-
fro, who freely predicts that this
will be the most enjoyable “Stunt
Nite” to date. There will be 12
colorful stage sets, with appro-
priate costumes of the periods of
the Revolution, Civil War, Gay
Nineties, World War, and Present
Day.
The feature act will be an air
raid, with the inevitable accom-
panying “black-out.” Such re-
nowned chararters as Napoleon,
Washington, Uncle Sam, Roose-
velt, Mussolini and Hitler will be
depicted on the stage, bringing
the past up to the present in the
spirit of youth today.
Stunt Nite this year is not a
pageant, a play, a musical, a cir-
cus, or a side show, but rather a
combination of these all in one of
the funniest, most “screamlined”
shows ever put on at the local
high school, it was said. The ap-
pearance of such stage oddities
as maniacs, horses, army tanks,
snow and even live chickens keep
the show moving at a rapid pace
throughout the performance.

nameless as yet, will open the
season in Refugio Sunday after-
noon, when they meet the Corpus
Christi Ex-Service Men nine at
Ryals Park. Game time will.be

The Reesers lost a thriller last
Sunday at Ingleside to the strong
Humble Oilers, the score being 2

when a Refugio fielder lost a high
one in the sun. Batteries for Re-
fugio were Charles Bryant, pitch-
ing, and E. A. Linney, catching.

are accompanied by a paid ad-
mission.
County Asks
Bids on Two
Road Jobs
To Use Local Labor
With 30c an Hour
Minimum Wage
Bids will be received Friday,
May 2, by County Judge T. G.
Jeter on the first two contracts
in the road building campaign re-
cently authorized in road district
No. 6, which was last year cre-
ated out of commissioners’ pre-
cincts Nos. 1 and 2. The first
contract to be let is for earth-
work, drainage and pipe culverts
on the county road running east
from Refugio to a junction with
the Hug-the-Coast Highway, 20.92
miles in length. The second con-
tract is for bridges and culverts
on the same road, which is proba-
bly better known as the O’Connor
rQTlpb vnq r]
Costing an estimated $130,000,
the two projects are only a part
of the road building program in
road district No. 6, which is to be
accomplished with a $600,000
bond issue voted last year. Other
roads to be built include one to
each of Refugio’s two cemeteries,
one to the Houston Gulf Gas Co.
roads through the populous farm-
precinct No. 1, and numerous
roadst hrough the populous farm-
ing sections around Austwell and
Tivoli in commissioner’s precinct
No| 4.
Bids on other parts of the pro-
gram will be asked as soon as
plans and specifications can be
prepared, it was stated at the
county engineer’s office.
The road from this city east to
the Hug-the-Coast Highway, the
first of the program that will be
paved, will shorten the distance
from Refugio to Austwell and Ti-
voli by several miles and give di-
rect connection with Lamar and
Rockport.
An effort wiU be made to use
Refugio County labor exclusively
on the entire program, with a
minimum wage of 30 cents an
hour. Persons desiring employ-
ment on any of the different proj-
ects must register at the Texas
State Employment Agency in Re-
fugio, as all labor will be hired
through that office.

Tenth Anniversary of the Refugio County American Legion
Post Sees Splendid Record of Many Notable Achievements
Next Thursday, May 1, will
mark the tenth anniversary of
the official chartering of Mar-
tin McDonald Post No. 298, of
the American Legion, which,
though its headquarters are at
Refugio, is a county-wide or-
ganization, and which has a ros-
ter of about 100 members whose
objects, like those of all Le-
gionnaires, are to preserve the
ties of comradeship and to pro-
mote mutual helpfulness and
service to the country.
Organized in March, 1931, the
post was consolidated with the
Cosmopolitah Post at Woods-
boro, formed a year earlier, and
named for William Martin Mc-
Donnel, the only soldier from
this county to be killed in bat-
tle during the World War. (The
error in spelling was made on
the charter.)
B. A. Johnson was elected as
the first commander at a meet-
ing held in the county judge’s
office in the court house March
7, 1931. Other officers chosen
at this meeting were: Joe C.
Heard, first vice commander;
Dr. T. J. Strong, second vice
commander; H. J. Young, fi-
naice officer; I. C. Williams,
sergeant-at-arms, and J. L.
Jones, historian.
Since the time of its organi-
zation, the Legion has taken an
active interest in the civic af-
fairs of the community, and
almost every major improve-
ment made in Refugio during
the past 10 years may be traced
directly to the start given it by
the American Legion. Notable
among these is the first street
paving done here, organization
of the volunteer fire department
and building of the City Hall
and the Refugio County Hos-
pital.
In addition, the veterans have
seen to it that patriotic holi-
days were fittingly observed.
Their first patriotic service was
on Memorial Day, Saturday,
May 30, 1931, when the graves
of soldiers of all wars of the
Republic of Texas and the
United States were decorated.
September 25, 1931, the first
regular election of officers was
held, with the following being
chosen: Joe C. Heard, post
commander; J. L. Jones, first
vice commander; Roy Kolb,
second vice commander; Jack
Comerford, adjutant; V. V. Bai-
ley, finance officer; J. C. John-
son, sergeant-at-arms, and Dr.
T. J. Strong, chaplain.
The American Legion Aux-
iliary, composed of the wives,
mothers and sisters of Legion-
naires, was organized October
23, 1931. It has aided the Le-
gion in many of its undertak-
ings, especially those of a char-
itable nature. Most of the fi-
nances of the post have been
raised through the efforts of
the Auxiliary.
The Legion conducted the
first town clean-up campaign
here in November, 1931, when
the city was cleaned of trash
and rubbish as a fire prevention
move. Since that time, clean-
up day has become an annual
event, being sponsored by the
fire department, assisted by the
city government.
Led by Commander B. E. Mc-
Guill, the Legion played an im-
portant part in the reburial
here of Captain King and his
small band, who were massa-
cred in Refugio in 1836. The
bones of the Texas Revolution-
ary heroes were disinterred,
after lying for almost a hun-
dred years in an unmarked
grave, and reburied with fitting
honors. The members of the
Legion furnished the military
escort for the services.
Another purely unselfish ac-
tivity of the Legion is the an-
nual school award, which is
made to the outstanding boy
and girl of the seventh grade
of all county schools. The pu-
pils so honored are selected by
their classmates and teacher
according to aptitude on seven
points prescribed by the Amer-
ican Legion.
J. S. Pennington served the
post as commander during 1934.
His administration was charac-
terized by many progressive
moves, as were those of Hobart
Huson, local attorney.
Present officers of the post
are Homer Williams, command-
er; A. D. Rooke, vice com-
mander; Marvin Null, adju-
tant; V. V. Bailey, finance of-
ficer; Hobart Huson, historian;
John L. Cooke, chaplain, and
Ed Perkins, sergeant-at-arms.
Current activities of the post
have to do principally with pa-
triotic undertakings. It is spon-
sor of the Refugio County All-
Purpose Defense Unit, from
which the twenty-first battalion
of the Texas Defense Guard has
been organized, and has re-
cently announced its intention
to present, without cost, serv-
ice ribbons to all war veterans
now living in Refugio County.
The people who make the
advertisements that appear
on the screen at the Rialto
Theater have at last learned
how to pronounce the word
“Refugio,” and thereby have
deprived audiences of the only
fun they got out of these
often repeated little strips.
For the past 10 years, the
movie ad makers have strug-
gled with the tongue-baffler,
calling it “Re-fuge-eo,” “Ra-
fook-eo,” and many other vo-
cal combinations that sounded
queer to the native. 6ut at
last one announcer has mas-
tered it, and lets the soft
“Ra-fure-eo” roll off of his
tongue like he had lived here
all his life.
Even at that, the Mexican
citizens giggle a little, for in
their language, to which the
word is native, it is “Ra-
fook-eo,” or something like
that.
