Letter to the Editor
Editor:
hM occurred to us that
been grossly ir-
ile in your cover-
of the Medina County
iture Pair,
coverage of each
both before and after
fair waa outstanding,
have given recognition
■pacific individuals such
as Diane Wolff and Mar-
garet Bailey, who justly
deserve the credit. But,
your gross negligence is
shown by not giving credit
to the one individual who
spent many extra hours
(and some personal beer
money) publicizing the
whole affair. He'sold more
raffle tickets than anyone

A VITALLY IMPORTANT
...survey form is printed in this
week's Anvil Herald and we would
hope that many persons take time
to fill it out and return it to the
Hondo City Hall or to the Anvil
Herald.
Concerning employment, un-
employment, or both, this survey
would be extremely crucial to the
future of our area.
We are seeking answers from
men, women, handicapped-just
anyone who can help us prove
there is a labor force in this area
that would support an industry-
and from all over the county.
It doesn't matter if you are
presently employed. We need to
know if a better job were available
would you be interested in
applying.
You do not have to sign the
form. No one will know you ever
sent it in. Just mail it or bring it by
the Hondo City Office or the
Hondo Anvil Herald, Box 400,
Hondo, Texas 78861.
- DIANE BROWN
..who toils at Mediiii Savings in actually won the scholarship.
Hondo says to tell ail her friends
she is not planning on going back
to school at this time, and especial-
ly not on a $200 Medina Savings
scholarship.
However, due to several factors,
one being the fact that Diane looks
young enough to be going to
school, we had her picture in an ad
instead of Denise Spadafore who
Diane was presenting Denise
the check in the picture and
inadvertantly the pictures were
switched.
I guess it worked out all right.
Denise got the $200. Diane had a
fleeting moment of being called a
school girl again. And we arc
re-running the ad at no cost for
Medina Savings.

Spirit soared Friday
morning as the H.H.S.
cheerleaders led Owl fans
through an excitement-
filled pep rally.
A rousing speech was
given by principal R.W.
Nations and the senior class
was awarded the spirit
stick.
Senior varsity members
took up their pom poms and
led the student body in an
Owl cheer and Mr.
Martinez and his Owl band
added the finishing touch to
another fantastic pep rally.
Senior Debbie Saathoff
waa elected chapter sweet-
heart at the F.F.A. meeting
held Wednesday night.
When aaked for her re-
action to receiving this
honor, the new sweetheart
replied, “It is very flatter-
ing to be chosen to re-
present such a fine group of
i 4
young men.’
The F.F.A. plans to
collect deer hides as a new
money-making project,
they nope to raise two or
three hundred dollars.
Tim Coyle and his senior
English students are start-
ing off the week in a new
and different way.
Each Monday every class
recites the Pledge of
Allegiance to the Flag. Mr.
Coyle and his students hope
to start what thev feel wiU
be an improvement to
classroom tradition.

throughout the state by Governor
Bill Clements and in Medina County
by Judge Joe E. Briscoe.
The Hondo Chapter of Young
Farmers includes 40 members who

month. Fund-raising activities the
chapter is involved in providing
scholarships for Hondo High School
agriculture students.
Prospective members are invited
to join the local chapter, according to
Andy Simon, Hondo chapter
president.
The memorandum reads as
follows:
“Realizing that in this age of rapid
(technological advancements educa-
tion must be a continuing process,
Young Farmers between the ages of
*"» A m*
18 and 35 have organized to carry out
{educational activities designed to
continously upgrade themselves in
their farming and ranching and
agriculture related occupations.
They are assisted in their endeavors
by the vocational agriculture teach-
ers in the public schools and the
Texas Education Agency.
'Though Young Farmers
are organized primarily for
educational purposes, they
incorporate in the planned
programs civic and com-
munity activities, rural
leadership development,
and recreational activities.
"While working to in-
crease their skill and effi-
cience in their chosen agri-
cultural careers, they are
also carrying out many
activities designed to im-
prove their communities,
state, and national and to
promote good citizenship.
“With a substantial
growth in membership
from year to year, Young
Farmers are playing , an
expanding role in the life of
rural America.
"It is appropriate that
the diligent efforts of this
group to improve them-
selves and to promote the
welfare of their fellowman
be recognized.”
