COURT UPHOLDS VIEWS
OF ATTORNEY GENERAL
Coming To
TEMPLE
AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 17.—To per-
mit intervention of Governor Miriam
A. Ferguson and the highway com-
missioners for the state in the Amer-
ican Road company suit would be for
the purpose of defeating any claims
the state” may have against that
company, Judge Calhoun said today
in denying them the right to inter-
vene.
The judge of the Fifty-third dis-
trict court also virtually disposed of
the claims made in pleas of abate-
ment which did not come up for for-
mal ruling, when he said that, since
it was conceded the attorney general
had right to bring suit for forfeiture
of permit to do business, it incident-
ally followed he should have the
right to revoke contracts and to re-
cover any amount of money illegally
held. The day was clearly one of
triumph for Attorney General Dan
Moody, who saw his arguments of
Monday approved in practically ev-
ery particular.
Judge Calhoun declared that where
the public interest is involved the
attorney general needs no specific
statute to bring suit. He said the
ruling of the Texas supreme court
tend to show the supreme court
judges hold the same opinion.
After the judge had refused a
plea of John Brady, attorney for the
intervenors, that his clients not be
thrown entirely out of court, but be
given a hearing on their pleas in
abatement, that they might speedily
appeal from the judge’s ruling
the company were read by Ernest
May, assistant attorney general, Joe
Worsham, attorney for the road com-
pany, read a formal answer, consti-
tuting a general denial to the charges.
Testimony in the injunction suit,
which asks an order restraining the
company from disposing of any of
its assets and from collecting more
money from the highway commission
will start Wednesday. Moody an-
nounced the state would first offer
minutes and other records of the
highway commission.
Frank Lanham, chairman of the
highway commission, asked to com-
ment on denial of intervention, said
“it seems that the commission has
not been given a fair opportunity to
defend itself against charges that
have been brought against it.”

past twelve years
money tor his services as a baseball
player last summer. The protest was
filed by E. J. Powell of Brady High
school.
The forfeiture ousted Lampasas
and left Brady and Fredericksburg
undefeated in district 8. These two
teams will be matched this week for
the championship, according to Roy
B. Henderson, league athletic direc-
tor.
“We believe that Dudley S. Moore
of Lampasas is one of the finest
sportsmen in interscholastic league
and we certainly hated to see his
team penalized in this manner,” de-
clared Henderson. “The Lampasas
fellows took the decision like great
sports, Coach Moore shaking hands
with each member of the committee
following the decision.”—Austin Am-
erican.
Coach Moore and several of Lam-
pasas’ citizens were in Austin Mon-
day when the above decision was
made. Several affidavits were pre-
sented to substantiate our claims in
the matter, which has been up for
settlement, but as stated above, the
decision was against us.

CAN THROW THOUGHTS
FROM SELF TO OTHERS,
SAYS SOVIET SCIENTIST
MOSCOW, Nov. 18.—A young So-
viet scientist, Dr. Koshinsky, who
has been studying the forces behind
telepathy and hypnotism since 1919,
announced Wednesday that he had
succeeded in transferring human
thoughts to animals at a distance
while he himself was enclosed in a
specially constructed iron box. He
also hypnotized these animals, he de-
clares, after he had placed them in
the box while he was a considerable
distance away.
Koshinsky asserts he is able to con-
vey his thoughts by means of hypno-
tism to human beings from an isolat-
ed locality without actually seeing
the person. He thinks the result he
says he has obtained prove his the-
ory that physical rays emanate not
only from the brain but from the en-
tire nervous system of every animal
organism.

Mrs. J. R. Moses, at Adamsville.
BUSINESS HOUSES
CLOSE THANKSGIVING
It has been the custom for a num-
ber of years for the business houses
of the city to remain closed Thanks-
giving day. In former years a peti-
tion was circulated each year asking
the merchants to close for the day,
but a few years back it was agreed
that it would not be necessary to cir-
culate such a petition each year. We
have heard nothing to the contrary
this year, and therefore advise every-
one to do their shopping the previous
day in order to avoid disappoint-
ment.
It is customary to hold a union
Thanksgiving service in the city on
that day, but as yet no plans have
been announced for such service. The
hour and place of this serivee will
probably be announced in a short
time.

hearfelt sympathy of a large num-
ber of friends in their sorrow.
