CHURCH DESTROYED BY GAIL Last Sunday morning, as Reverend James May gazed over his sinners, the church was wrecked by little Gail, son of Mr. and Mrs. Marlyn Cornett.

WELL KNOWN FARMER SUFFERS SUNSTROKE Jerry Drew, former high school student, while working on his irrigation ditch, suf- fered a sunstroke.
