A.T.,T.
means
to your
telephone
service
\
The men and women who
furnish your telephone
service here could not do
their job so well without
the help of American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Com-
pany, parent organization
of the Bell System.
TF a better way of doing
X a job gives better tele-
phone service on the Paci-
fic Coast, it may work
equally well in the cities
and towns of this state.
Staff experts of Ameri-
can Telephone and Tele-
graph Company, parent
company of the Bell Sys-
tem, search constantly for
these economies and im-
provements . . . test them
... study them. The per-
fected result is offered to
aid the 24 Bell operating
companies... of which the
Southwestern Company is
one .. . give a nation-wide
telephone service, uniform-
ly good, at a fair price.
This is a fundamental
policy of the Bell System.
It is based upon the belief
that what is best for the
telephone user is in the end
the policy that will bring
us the surer, more endur-
ing measure of success.

PET DEER BROUGHT
TO LAMPASAS
I LET US HELP YOU |
| Look Your Best f
| Rathman Tailors |
Something new in the line of pets
is an eighteen months old buck deer
which has just been presented to
Mrs. W. T. Bullion as a gift from a
friend. Before bringing the deer to
Lampasas it wa§ necessary to get a
State permit from Austin which es-
tablished the right to keep the deer
as a pet. A pen has been built across
the street from Bullion’s filling sta-
tion and a shed will be added to the
structure later.
Quite a few people have been out
to see the new pet, and it is expected
that many more will do so in the
near future.
ORDINANCE AIMED
AT PRACTICE vOF
BODY-SNATCHING
DALLAS, March 22.—The city
council today had passed a city or-
dinance designed to curb the activi-
ties of some body-snatching under-
taking companies.
The city council passed an ordi-
nance providing that no ambulance
can make a call to an accident or
scene of a violent death without ob-
taining the permission of the City
Emergency Hospital.
Action of the council followed sen-
sational disclosures by City Manager
Edy that ambulance drivers fre-
quently take bodies from the scene
of accidents without consulting rela-
tives and also that they refer to
corpses as “stiffs” in front of the
bereaved.
Following Edy’s report, made sev-
eral days ago, the council began a
study of the problem with a view to
curbing the alleged practices.
METHODIST YOUNG
PEOPLE ENTERTAINED
Thirty-five members of the Meth-
odist Epworth League and their
guests met Thursday evening at the
annex and enjoyed a social hour.
Various games were played through-
out the evening. The program and
refreshment committee was compos-
ed of Betty McCrea, Mildred Ro-
mans, Lurline Creekmore and Marvin
Adams. A refreshment plate con-
sisting of sandwiches, iced tea and
cookies were served. Bro. and Mrs.
Davis were chaperones.
The Baptist training school which
has been in progress the past week
will close Friday eveqing. Every-
one is urged to attend this last meet-
ing.
Otto Lang went to a Temple hos-
pital the first of this week for a
medical examination and he will un-
dergo an operation tomorrow morn-
ing for appendicitis.

TWO GIVEN LIFE SENTENCES
IN HATCHET SLAYING
SAN MARCOS, March 22.—Mateo
Cuellar and Julian Ybarra were con-
victed and sentenced to life imprison-
ment today for the hatchet slaying
of Claude E. Kelley five years ago in
what prosecutors described as a po-
litical plot against the life of Kel-
ley’s father-in-law, E. C. Couch,
judge in Hidalgo county on the Rio
Grande.
A flays county jury returned the
verdict in district court here after
deliberating about 24 hours and
shortly after it asked the court the
difference between a life sentence and
99 years in prison. The judge ex-
plained the sentences legally were
alike.
B. N. Brubak, a defense attorney,
announced he would ask for a new
trial for Cuellar and Ybarra and
would appeal the case should his mo-
tion be denied.
Kelley was wounded with a blunt
ax or hatchet in a midnight attack in
the Couch home as he slept in the
bed usually occupied by Couch. Mem-
bers of the Couch family found him
in the living room and found his b^fl
saturated with blood. Kelley was not
able to talk from that time until
his death in Dallas several months
later. For a time he was treated in
Lubbock.
The State sought to show that cer-
tain political groups ’ wanted Couch,
a leader in an opposing faction, out
of the way. Cam E. Hill and George
C. Beck, former Hidalgo county resi-
dents, also have been Charged in
connection with Kelley’s death but
have not been tried. At the conclus-
ion of the trials here, Sid Hardin,
district/ attorney, said he would seek
to have Hill’s trial transferred to a
nearby county.
All were arrested last fall after a
long investigation. At Hhat time
both Cuellar and Ybarra made state-
ments to officers admitting partici-
pation in the plot but on the witness
stand several days ago they repudi-
ated them, claiming that they made
them under threat of death.
Fred Blundell assailed the defend-
ants’ reputation on the statements
ani| declared they were “clutching
at a straw.”
The defense in arguments tried to
show that the State had not proved
that Ybarra and Cuellar had killed
Kelley and ridiculed the prosecution
premise that an effort to reach Couch
motivated the attack.
Hardin said a juror said the panel
stood 10 to 2 for the death penalty
until just before it reported.
The cases were transferred to
Hays county on a change of venue
three months ago.
