Who says deer are scarce in
Young County? A few weeksago
while the ground was covered
with snow, all the wild game
was having trouble finding food
to survive. The Morton boys
and Buster Farmer at the Air
View Motel decided to do some-,
thing about it.
Feed was placed outside the
Morton ranch house. They re-
moved a window pane in order
to shoot pictures of the game.
All at once the yard was full
of hungry deer and Mr. Farmer
game was almost free of any scoring whatsoever.
It seems that the Longview eagers felt that they couldn’t
"run and shoo" with the speedy Midwesterners, so they de-
—‘cided to equalize matters by slowing the game to a stand-still.
The strategy almost payed off as LeTourneau went ahead 8-7
in the last minutes of the game. The Indians, however, quickly
regained the lead by sinking their only field goal in the second
half. LeTourneau stalled until the last 30 seconds, then tried a
desperation shot which missed.
Paul Wood scored on a basket and a free throw to lead the
losers with a total of three points. Midwestern’s Benny Grill was
the game’s high-point man, however. Grill deluged his oppo-
nent’s defenses with a fantastic total of five points.
And if the players had an off night, what about the officials?
They only got to call four personal fouls during the entire game.
It is interesting to note that Midwestern’s Junior Varsity
scored 82 points as it beat Weatherford Junior College that

San Angelo -- Barring more
severe winter weather, the
state’s principal antelope herds
apparently will reach spring to
fairly good,nymbers, according
to reports‘t the Texas Parks
and Wildlife Department
The antelope range through-
out the Panhandle was described
in a report by Biologist Jack
K. Parsons as "in good con-
dition with prospects for good
crop of late winter and early
spring forbs."
He added “Antelope in the
Marfa-Alpine area are to very
good condition at the present
time and will probably make
the winter in good condition.
Ranges in the area have re-
ceived winter moisture and
should produce early forbs.”
Parsons added that "An-
telope in the Hudspeth-Cul-
ber.son area comprises only a
small part of the herds in the
Trans-Pecos.
Parsons noted that favorable
moisture conditions to the Per-
mian Basin region (Odessa-
Midland-Big Lake area) have
helped maintain a good antelope
status.
