Card of Thanks

There comes a time in the lives
of all families when nothing earthly
can heal the wounds caused by the
passing of loved ones Such a time
we are now experiencing. But our
sorrow would have been much great
er had it not been for the sympa'
thetic words of friends and neigh
bors. To each of these we want you
to know that we are deeply sensible
for each thoughtful act and each kind
deed that was done for III departed
husband. father and grandfather
while he fingered on his bed and for
each thoughtful act and deed after
his death.
Especially do we thank the South
ern Undertaking Association for
their efficient and sympathetic ser
vice. The Doctors for their faithful
service and Brother Miller for his
sympathetic words, for those who
sent flowers we are also grateful.
MAY Gods richest blessings be
showered upon each and everyone OF
you is our prayer.

Children & Grandchildren.

Town ~SoftboIIers Trip
Roturiuns 81
BY William Cathey

- ~
Base hits were rare articles here
Thursday afternoon as the Durant
Independent softbaM squad conquered
the Rotary Club to the tune OF 3 to
1. Except for poor Judgment on the
part of the losers in running the bags
in the final inning, the contest might
have been more interesting.
The Rotarians secured only three
safeties OFF the pitching OF HARRY
O'Cain, but what happened in the
final frame will make the outfit be-
grudge its opponents victory. With
mel on second and third and none
out and the Rotary team three runs
behind, Harrington crossed the plate
on a passed ball and McCullar, who
had beaten out an infield tap, took
second on the same incident. Then
came happenings that assumed light
ning-like s~uddenness.
Red Taylor singled and when Nc
Cullar tried to scamper home from
second, he was thrown out by Drane
who scooped up the ball and heaveo
it to Carroll. Renacker then flied
to Herman Odom, Jr. in center field
and Taylor. apparently thinking the
smash was a safe hit and who had
run all the way to second, was dou-
bled off first base.
Neither team counted until the
third canto when the town a dent
