The Policy of The Southwestern States _ Telephone Comp my is to render the highest 1 type of telephone service at the lowest pos sible cost. Increas sd costs of living has neces sitated payroll boosts of more than 200?$, during the past decade. Almost all materials Used in telephone maintenance and for exten sions have increased from 25% to 100% since the war. With th: urgent demands now pre vailing for telephones, it is imperative to make tremendous cash outlays for plant ex pansions. We arc making plant expansions as rapidly as equipment and material deliv- schedules ‘ii. Because of i the wide plant v:*; f.

Written Pledge Required A few minutes later, they adopted another stand that no one could attend a precinct or county convention this summer ithout a written pledge to sup- irt the nominees of the party. Both resolutions were adopted without dissent in the commit- tee’a second consecutive harmony session. But, as stated by Committee man Stuart Long from Austin, the state regulatory body was guided by an 8 to 1 opinion of the Supreme Court. The court, in effect, held that the party could demand loyalty. While at it, the executive com mittee went through the formal ity of numberign three places on the court which will be up for election this summer.

Duncan’s point-after - touchdown try was blocked. Defense Dominates Action thep changed back into rugged defensive play until 10 minutes of the 3rd quarter had passed, paring the 15-minute in termission, the fansxdrifted to the left-end wire fence bf the base ball diamond and were' entertain ed by the Aggie baseballers who were playing an intra-squdd tilt. The Maroons attempted to score early in the third s t a n z a when quarterback Darrow Hooper faded to his 35-yard line and heav ed a long lob downfield to Yale Lary.. But Royalty slapped the ball harmlessly to the ground to pre vent a tally. With five minutes remaining in the third quarter, the Whites took the ball at midfield and marched 50 yards to the final touchdown of the afternoon. Only Sustained Drive Running plays with Jim Dobbyn and Smith spearheadjngi the way and a 20 yard pass ‘ play from Sikes to end Walter] Hill placed the oval on the Marojon five yard line. At this spot the Maroon line stiffened, and after Smith and Dobbyn bucked the line land one incomplete pass, Sikes carried the ball over on a quarterback sneak. Duncan’s conversion attempt sail ed wide and the score remained at 25-7 till the final whistle. Line-play dominated the remain ing minutes of the contest with W. T. Rush, Dick Self, Curl Mol- berg, Jack Little, and Chuck O’Neil, a linebacker, turning in aggressive defensive pltty for the Maroons. Gardemnl Thrills Fans White gridsters of equal show ing were Wright, Russ HUdeck, Elo Nohavitza, Max Greiner, and James Flowers. In the fourth quarter Garde mnl thrilled the crowd with a 40- vnrd jaunt after he had dropped back to pass but couldn’t spot an open receiver. The 155 pounder changed his direction at least four times as he weaved down- field. The White’s offensive punch was enriched bv Gj*ave’s passes to Hodge, his brother Rav, and Herbert MeJunken, who got more than his share of yardage on the ground. \ Same Teams Next Week The last remarkable play of the game came when Gardemal hit Lary with a perfect 43-yard pass after the Fort Worth kicking spec ialist was surrounded by Maroon defenders. The ball sailed over Lary’s shoulder into his arms for the most beautiful pass play of the day. ^lame stalwarts along the for ward wall were Bobby Wright. Hudeck, Frey, Flowers. and O’Neil, who was outstanding as a linebacker.
