The San Saba Armadillos lost their district opener to the Fred- ftricksburg Hillbillies, 27 to 6, Friday night, Oct. K5, at Fredericksburg.

Politics, the main subject of conversation days the N'ov 3rd election draws near, will be! taking over most of the time for programs on radio and television, as well as much of the spacn in ti.c newspapers. Although, wo all have our ideas on the meaning of the word, politics, we looked up the won! in the an'l nlao in a ur- 13. Webster's definition of politics is thus: The science and art of government; the theory of practice of managing affairs of public policy or of political parties; hence, political affairs, principals, of the like; in a bad sense, dishonest management to secure the sue- i cess of political candidates or parties; and etc. The Thesaurus gave this definition: statesmanship, statecraft, government. We will allow each individual to select the proper definition in his own opinion for politics, as this ia one subject BO many people have BO many different definitions, depending upon the candidate of their choice.

There is one thing about it, however, in our country, each individual has the right to his own opinion and can cast hia ballot accordingly. For this privilege, we ahould be thankful, for it isn't so in many countries today, as we have learned within the past few days. We doubt that many of the Russians even knew of their recent change of rulers, much less had a voice in the selection of new officials, or making such change, until it was done. Here, the people of the nation will have the privilege of going to the polls to cast their ballot for the candidates they choose, regardless of party affiliation, and the candidate, who receives the majority of votes will win. If your vote is counted among the majority, then you win.

otherwise, you lose, as in any contest, there are winners and losers. All indications point to San Saba county becoming a two-party county. We the start of the game but were forced to punt. The Dillos received, but wore also furred to punt on fourth down. The Hillbillies got thpir first break after punting to the Dillos the second time.

San Saba received tho punt but was hit immediately which caused them to fumble the ball with the Billies recovering on the Dillo 30-yard line. After running a play which took the Billies to the Dillo 15-yard line, the Billies fumbled the ball and San Saba recovered. In the second period, the Billies reached the Scoreboard after picking off a Dillo pass. It was Dor Brown who carried the ball over for the 6-poiner, with Fred Frair kicking the extra point. The clock showed a little more than six minutes left to play in the second quarter.

The Dillos received the kick with Danny Miller returning it to the Cherokee P-TA Will Host Bi-Council Meet The QieroVee Parent-Teacher Association will host the first of the four Bi-Council P-TA meetings of the year at 2 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 21.

The Dillos could not stop the powerful Billy backs, and in only two plays, the Billies drove 30 yards to score again. Jerry Gold carried over for 6 points and Fred Frair added the extra point making the score, 14-0.

Again, San Saba received the kick with 5:45 left in the first half. The Dillos started driving from their own -14-yard line. A few plays later found the Dillos 3 yards from paydirt. And finally, quarterback Rodney Hyatt ran the 3 yards up the middle to score. Conversion attempt was no good and the action was over for the first half with the score 14-6, in favor of the Hillbillies.

The Dillos received the kickoff to start play in the second half. Unable to move the ball, the Billies then got control and early in the third period, Jerry Gold scored the Billies' third touchdown. The extra point was good, raising the score, 21-6, for the Billies. The Dillos could not seem to move the ball at all, and the Billies controlled it most of the second half. The Billies' final touchdown came after Friedrich, an end, intercepted a Dillo pass and went yards for the touchdown.

This time the extra point was missed, and the final score was Fredericksburg, 27 and the Dillos, 6. The Dillos played a fine game but the breaks seemed to be against them. The Dillos were led in tackles by Jimmy Gilstrap and Mike Clausen.
