up with the club in Texas through

appeals to all Of our clubs Of the
state, urging affiliation with that
body, irrespective OF the state associa-
tcu. In fact, ever since our last an
nLal election. the Texas State AutOmo-
bile association through its officers
and executive committee, has been
trying TO get the cooperation Of the
