Badgers Clip
Dogs in Vital
District Game
Th.* Lampasas Badgers, here in
the Brndy ;ym Friday night, fair-
ly well decided the question of
who's best in District 1K-AA.
They defeated Brady’s Bull-
dogs,
It wus Brady’s first district
loss, and it gave the Badgers a
perfect record over every other
member of the league.
The Bulldogs rnn still get
back in the race—by whipping
Lampasas in their next meet-
ing. But they’ll have to do it
on the Badgers’ home court,
and that won’t be easy.
* t *
Lampasas fielded a fast, hustling
team here Friday, grabbing the
rebounds and swiping the ball
from the Doga on many occasions.
Brady, however, held a 10-12 lead
in the first period, hut the Bad-
gers tied it at 19-19 in the second
quarter and then gradually pulled
abend, leading at one time 10-19.
It was a cold third quarter that
killed the Dogs. They scored only
7 points while the Badgers were
getting 17. Point-maker Charles
Reynolds sank a hot BO points
during the night, but his
teammate, George Kidd who has
been sharing the high-scoring hon-
ors was having an off night and
managed only .'1 points.

The Bulldogs couldn’t hit from
the floor, but they had a good
nig * free throw line, mak-
ing 2,r) out of 35 attempts.
Tommy Patterson led the Bad-
gers’ scoring with 21 points.
Earlier in the night Brady's
Bullpups lost a B-game heart-
breaker, 47-45. Greg Chase
put away 21 points for the
Pup*, and Charles Dicker i
dropped in another 17.
The Bulldogs this week had two
more district games on the sched-
ule. both at home. San Saha was
to be here Tuesday night, and
Llano will come in Friday night.
The Dogs managed only a 4-point
win (46-42) over San Saha in their
previous meeting.

OKAY NOW, GIVE HIM
The development of the contact lens has produce I a new
hazard in I askethall. Sometimes they pop out, und then every! .dy
gets down on the floor und starts looking for a tiny piece of
/lass. That's what happened here In Friday’s Brady-Lampasas
game. Jimmy Williams (No. 17) of Lampasas lost his lens and
BACK HIS EYEBALL!
the whole Badger team quickly began scanning the floor for it,
as many amused spectators wondered what was going on. Brady's
Charles Reynolds—who also wears contact lenses helped in the
search. Williams found his “eyeball” and the game continued.

The Brady Pupettos offered the
only bright spot in Friday's

member of the dstrict, the Pup-
ettes have the inside track toward
the district championship.

From Waco Send
Thanks to Dunbar
Coaches and players from
Moore High School, Waco, were
very impressed by the hospitality
they received from members of the
Dunbar community when they
were here recently for a basket-
ball game with the Dunbar Steers.
When they got home they < nt
a handsome little trophy to the
"Dunbar School and Parents. It
was engraved: “Thanks for Your
Kindness.” anil with it came a
letter from L. H. Ritcherson,
Moore High School coach.
Addressed to Dunbar Principal
Alonzo Reed, it said:
“In all of our traveling around
the state of Texas, we have never
been so royally entertained ns we
were in your fine city. You and
your people are simply wonderful.
"May we (the team and
coachea) take this method of ex-
pressing our sincere appreciation
for what you did for us The
lodging anil food was the l*est. If
at any time we can be of some
service to you please do not hesi-
tate to rail on us. Thanks very

will receive their citizenship pap-
ers in two weeks.
The citizenship class here
has been meeting once a week
since November, I960, nml
is being taught by Daniel
Sanchez, pastor of Brady’s
Emmanuel Baptist Mission
and a senior at Howard Payne
College.
“He has taken a lot of inter-
est in the class,’’ said Mrs. Eliza-
beth Hughes, secretary to County
Judge Love Kimbrough. The class
now has about l() Latin-American
students.
“Most of these people have
lived here since they were child-
ren, and they own their homes
1 here.”
But because they technically
are "aliens" they have not been
| entitled to the privileges of U. S.
citizenship.
“It has been long, hard work,
and it was a hard examination,’’
said Mrs. Hughes. “But these
really
first three graduates are
I proud.’’
Sanchez gives his time in teach-
ing the class without charge, and
the only cost to the County has
been $7.50 for a few hooks and the
j use of the district courtroom
where the class meets every Wed-
1 nesdny night.
Thc Fort Worth Chapter of
the Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution also sent a
group of “Manuals for Citi-
zenship" for use by the class.
The older members of the class
are permitted to take their exam-
inations in Spanish, but the j
younger ones must be able to read,
write, and speak simple words in j
English.
"That is the hard part,” Mrs
Hughes said. “Because some of
the students can’t speak English,
anil the lessons have to be trans-
lated.’’
Assigned Here
C. II. (Swede) Johnson has
been transferred here from Bos
que County ns game warden for
the Texas Game and Fish Com-
mission.
He succeeds Bill Bennett, game
warden here for the last several
years.
Johnson finished high school in
Dallas. With the game depart-
ment, he spent nine months in Dal-
las and has been in Meridian for
the last 14 years.
Johnson comes here highly re-
commended.
"He has done nn exceptionally
fine job since he has been in Bos-
que County, and we hate very
badly to lose him,” said Bosque
County Judge J. P. Word in a
letter to McCulloch County Judge
Love Kimbrough.
Other local officers also have
received letters from Bosque
County recommending Johnson.
“He believes very strongly in
law enforcement, and he is fair
and impartial as it is possible to
i>e.’’ said Judge Word. "He has
enforced the game and fish laws
and has made friends here while
doing so.
"He also hns taken nn active
interest in the atfairs of the com-
munity and has been one of our
outstanding citizens. 1 am happy
to recommend him to you.”
tions now is 2,628—up front
2,409 last year.
The gains are reflected also in
tiie City’s total utility billings:
$36,427 on Jan. 20, as compared
to $33,218 on Dec. 20, I960.
Pioneer Natural Gas Company
has an additional 71 connections
since last year. The December to-
tal was 2,342 (including 143 on
tiie company’s rural lines), as
compared to 2,271 <132 on the
rural lines) last year.
Southwestern States Telephone
Company showed a 7 percent in-
crease in number of telephones in
its Prndy exchange during 1961.
“This is a sign of continued
growth of the community,” said
A. J. Lacy of Brownwood, divi-
sion manager. At the end of
December, the company had 2,351
phones in use here. That compares
with 2,189 at the end of December,
1960.
