COMMANDING OFFICER
TO GIVE CONSIDERATION
A letter received last week
by the Chamber of Commerce
from the Adjutant General's
Department, Austin, gave encouragement in the matter of
securing Texas National Guard
units in this section. Major
General Fred L. Walker, Commanding
Texas
National
Guard, wrote that he would
"make a restudy of the tentative allotment (TNG units)
with a view to establishing a
mechanized cavalry unit at
Marfa."
State Guard companies have remained with their organizations
in the expectation that National
Guard units would be assigned to
this section. A recent list of unit
assignments did not include any
in the Big Bend.
Temporary or permanent armory housing is available at Fort
D. A. Russell, it was stated, and
land for the building of an armory could be secured. The City of
Alpine will give land for an
armory there, and both Presidio
and Terlingua were said to have
housing and land for armory uee.
The availability and desirability of
land in the Big Bend for training
purposes was described.
It was pointed out that many
members of the First Cavalry Division live in this section and are
willing to enlist in National Guard
units of the mobile or armored
type which would be most practical for duty in an area of the
type of the Big Bend. The proven
ability of Latin-Americans as
World War II soldiers was referred to in stating that many of
those citizens who have returned
are interested in National Guard
activity.
Enclosed with Mr.
Fuller's
"statement of position" were letters from Big Bend organizations
and individuals who expressed the
opinion that there should be National Guard units here.
It was requested that Battalion
headquarters, Alpine, be advised
soon of the possibility of National
Guard units being established
here. Morale and recruitment
would be aided by such information.
Conference for
District Employees
New developments in the prac
tice of safety in their daily work
were outlined to West Texas Utilities Co. employees at a safety
meeting for Big Bend District employees here Tuesday night.
George Clark, Jr., of the Safety
Department of the company's headquarters office in Abilene showed
a motion picture on the subject of
the practice of safety in doing
electric line work.
Watermelon was served on the
lawn near the company's power
plant.
Visiting in New York
A summer visit in New York
City will be enjoyed by Mrs. Paul
T,ewis and daughter. Miriam who
city. They will be guests of Mrs.
Lewis' sister, Mrs. Marian Tomares. The sisters have not seen
each other for nearly three years.
The Marfans will be away three
or four weeks.
A colt show and matched horse
races are to be a part of the 3-day
Rodeo which will be sponsored this
year by the Chamber of Commerce
on a basis that it is hoped will
make the annual September event
in Marfa a sectional one which will
be of a substantial, worth while
character.
Directors of the organization
met Friday morning and made tentative arrangements for the holding of the sports event which will
be September 12 to 15. W. E.
Crews, Jr., was named chairman
of the Rodeo Committee which will
be in active charge of the staging
of the Rodeo, and Jack Knight,
will be secretary-treasurer of
committee. T U , handling «-P
funds in connection with the Rodeo
will be entirely separate
from
Chamber of Commerce money.
The Chamber of Commerce will
have over-all supervision of the
Rodeo.
No "underwriting" of the Rodeo>
is proposed this year. Instead it
is hoped that -$3,000 may be subscribed by individuals and firms as
a basic fund which will assure
financial success this year and in
years to come. It is believed that
the Colt Show and Matched Horse
Races features should be of sufficient drawing power to a t t r a c t
visitors in large enough quantity
to eliminate the usual deficit t h a t
the Rodeo suffers. L. L. Warner,
Chamber of Commerce secretary,
said yesterday that some money
for the ''backlog" fund has been
subscribed.
T..
Chamber of Commerce directors
feel that the Rodeo-Colt ShowMatched Horses Races, staged in
1947 and years beyond that with
the Highland Feeder Show and
Sale, may well make a week-long
attraction that will attract not
only people of the tri-county Highland area but many from other
parts of the state. The fund that it
is wanted to establish at this time
should be the first step toward thesecuring of a surplus which will
assure success in the yearly event
which is looked forw*ard to by so
many people of this section of the
state, and of other states, namely,
those in which live the feeders of
Highland Hereford calves.

MSI-* —
A night of terror and mortal
peril forms the highlight of RKO
Radio's powerful drama, "A Game
©f Death," today, Saturday at the
Palace, with John Loder in the
jrole of a shipwrecked victim on a
jungle island, who is forced to
submit to being hunted by a maniac armed with a bow and arrow
and aided by a pack of dogs. Also
featured in the picture are Edgar
Barrier as the hunter, Audrey
Long and Russell Wade as two
other victims.
MONEY FOR CHILD'S PLAY—
Bobby Blake, 9 years old, is a
fcoy who makes money playing
Cowboys and Indians. Bobby is
the Little Beaver of Republic's
Western film series based on the
characters of the Red Ryder cartoon strip. Ryder himself is Wild
Bill Elliott, star of the action pictures. Latest in the series is
"Wagon Wheels Westward," today, Saturday at the Palace.

AUDREY'S
VOICE CLICKS—
There's a new candidate in Hollywood for the title of "The
Voice." A speaking voice — not
singing—low, husky, dripping with
allure. The possessor is Audrey
Totter, currently featured with
-?afe H 3B
Robert Walker and June Allyson
en the screen in "The Sailor Takes
a Wife." (Palace, Sunday and
Monday).
It was as one of New York's
busiest radio actresses—she was
dubbed "Queen of the Soap OpAudrey's interesting
eras"_taat
voice was heard by an M-G-M talent scout when she was portraying
a character named Bonnie in the
radio serial,"Bright Horizon."
The talent scout sent an enterprising assistant to the radio studio to see if Audrey's chassis
matched the voice. The assistant
rushed back, and forgot dignity
completely as he gave a wolf
whistle before reporting, "It
matches!" Audrey was screen
tested and before you could spell
memonics had signed a contract
and boarded a train for California.
That was less than a year ago.
Since then she has worked in seven
pictures. The Voice made good!
H AITS FOR FINE
CLOTHES—
Angelyn Orr waited twelve years
to get into the movies and to strut
around in glamorous clothes, but
when she finally made it, the studio had other ideas in mind. Currently featured in Columbia Pictures' "Blondie's Lucky Day,"

WORSHIP CONDUCTED IN ODD PLACES—A number
of unusual church buildings are in use by groups which
have been established recently. Pentecost Sunday, June

been added to Methodist Church rolls in recent months.

a brilliant roster of stars headed
by Tyrone Power. Gene Tierney

Both the products of their times,
Jesse and Frank James lived in a
day when the spirit of lawlessness
was abroad in the land. It is generally conceded that it is their
part in the struggle of the Missouri farm people to save their
homes from unscrupulous seizure
by the railroads that turned young
Jesse James and his equally notorious brother, Frank, to a life
of outlawry.
Almost four years of Navy duty
was completed by Manuel Dionicio
Cordero at the time of his discharge last week at Terminal Island, San Pedro, Calif.
Cordero, whose wife lives here,
was a bus boy at El Paisano Hotel
before leaving for military duty.
He served at the U. S. Navy Small
Craft Facility, San Diego, and his
sea duty was on the USS Audubon. He has to his credit the Asiatic-Pacific, American Area, and
Victory Medal awards.
The young man was graduated

God's Immutable Word
Friend—have you read your Bible today ?
Every Christian should study it with a prayerful interest and teachable spirit so long as he lives for someone has written—
"This Book contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of
salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. Its
doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true, and its
decisions are immutable.
"Read it to be wise, be/ieve it to be safe, practice it to be holy.
"It contains light to direct you, food to support you, and comfort to
cheer you. It is the traveler's map, the pilgrim's staff, the pilot's comjpass,
the soldier's sword, 'the Christian's charter. Here heaven is opened, and.
the gates of hell disclosed.
"Christ is its grand subject, our good its design, and the glory of God
its end. It should fill the memory, rule the heart, and guide the feet
Read it frequently, regularly, thoughtfully, prayerfully. It is a mine of
wealth, a river of pleasure, a paradise of glory. It is given in life, will be
opened at the judgment, and will be remembered forever. It involves the
highest responsibility, rewards the greatest labor, and condemns all who
make light of, or trifle with its sacred contents."

Three Marfa youths—Pvt. Orlando D. Franco, Pvt. Charles M.
Duke, Jr., and Pvt. David Contreras—have tfegun Aviation Engineer training in the Army Air
Forces units that are stationed at
Geiger Field, Spokane, Wash.
The many skilled subjects taught
at the AAF Aviation Engineer
School, such as repair and operations of automotive equipment,
tractors and graders used in airport and highway construction,
should prove of inestimable value
to the three. Drafting, surveying
and carpentry are some of the
other subjects taught at the Engineer Training School.
Upon completion of training, the
new Aviation Engineer soldiers
will probably be assigned to an
Aviation Engineer unit. These
units are an integral part of the
Army Air Forces and have as their
mission the performance of all engineer work needed by the Air
Forces in all theaters of operations.
