Malakoff Tigers Lose
First Game To Van
The Malakoff High School Tig-
ers drew the small end of a 14 to
0 score in the first football game
of the season Friday night when
they met the strong aggregation
of the Van, Texas high school.
The game was played at night on
the Van field before a very large
cro/vd of enthusiastic fans,
The locals played a far better
game than the score would indi-
cate, as both the Van counters,
coming in the first and fourth
quarters of the game, came as di-
rect results of bad breaks at cru-
cial moments. Too, the Tigers
were considerably handicapped
shortly after the start of the
game when Captain Joe Ady,
main spring of the backfield and
the Tiger's only punter, had to be
taken from the game with an in-
jured foot. "Spec" Rogers an-
other backfield star and veteran
of last year's squad, was hamper-
ed with an injured shoulder
which he received recently in the
rounds of training.
Patriotic Program
At Bazette Draws
Capacity Crowd

musical program to an overflow
audience of fully 3000 people at
the Holiness Tabernacle at Baz-
ette Sanday night All the other
churches discontinued their ser-
vices and attended the services
at the Tabernacle. Mr. Sandlin,
father of two of the young musi-
cians, furnished a microphone
and loud speaker for the occasion
which made it possible for the
large number of people who were
unable to get imside the Taber-
nacle ts enjoy the program.
In keeping with "Constitution
Week" Mrs. Dr. Williams deliv-
ered a patriotic message which
was well received and brought
many compliments at the close
of the service. An urgent invi.
tation was extended to return
and assist in a revival that will
be in progr s at the Tabernacle
all this week.

tertainment will be secured

booths, in which various attrac.
sions may be seen on display.

ing attraction of the evening will

people of Malakoff to visit their

Work To Start At
Once On Trinidad
Absorption Plant
Work on the new adsorption
plant, which is to be constructed
by the Lone Star Gas Company

ed here. When the construction

learned that approximately 200
men will be employed on the job.

Malakoff Hi. Tigers
To Play Edgewood
School Here Today
The first appearance of the 1935
edition of the Malakoff high
school Tigers on the home field
will be made this afternoon when
they meet the strong eleven from
the Edgewood high school.
The visitors are heralded to be
in possession of a very strong
team and as the locals, too, boast
of a real fighting crew, the en-
counter today is likely to prove
very interesting.
As today's game will be the
first on the local gridiron this
season and with the admission
:educed to the very low figure of
25c, it is expected that a very
large crowd will be on hand for
the affair.
Ready for Edfiewood
After losing a hard game to
Van on the Vandals home field,
the Malakoff Tigers are back at
work ironing out flaws in their
football machine.
Captain Joe Ady, stellar Tiger
quarterback, who was injured in
the opening minutes of the Van
game, will be ready for action a-
long with "Spec" Rogers and
James Harvill, who also have
been injured.
The starting line-up for the Tig-
ers in today's game will probably
be as follows: Laney and Wilson,
Ends: Whitehead and Buckner,
Tackles; Harvill and Captain
Patton, Guards; McGregor, Cen-
ter; Captain Ady, quaoterback;
Bradley and Rogers, Halfbacks;
Mitchell, Fullback.

usefulness in less than a month,

and France in 1856, and is the
property of Charles Lindsey
Clark of Austin, a University
student and the son of Dr. D. L.
Clark, professor of English.
