The latest estimates available credited Abilene and San Angelo each wun as a result of the formal inspection of that unit recently, Col. L. C.

Adams, professor and head of the department, announced late Saturday afternoon. Announcement that the unit had been awarded the "excellent" rating was made in a letter to Dr. Wm. M. Whyburn, president of Texas Tech, from Gen.

Thomas T. Handy, commanding general of the Fourth Army at Fort Sam Houston. The award authorizes the ROTC Tech to continue to wear the "Blue Star" award which the unit won last year, Col. Adams said.

Even the Amarillo chamber termed that figure "a little high." Gene Howe, publisher of the Amarillo Globe News, claims a population of 90,162 for that city, and has posted his own road signs to that effect. If the same yardsticks should be applied to Lubbock, a figure of 71,000 would compare with the Amarillo chamber's 80,000 estimate. As to the 90,162 estimate there, the satne factors would indicate 79,000 for Lubbock. In 1940, Amarillo's official 51,656 population exceeded Lubbock's by 19,803.

By that city's own yardsticks, the margin has now been reduced to 10,000 or 12,000. May Extend City Limits As to the prospects of extending the" Lubbock city limits before 1950- The matter unquestionably will be discussed thoroughly. Just what may be done about the extensions remains to be seen.

Walters had identified a double sink earlier as hers, the sheriff's department here said. It was believed, officers said, that she would be able to identify a hot water heater, as well. It had been sold and installed in another residence, they said they were informed.
