Farmers Branch Progressing Rapidly in early 1940s football season
The Carrollton Lions face Diamond Hill in a Friday night game at Ramsey Field as part of a long rivalry in the 1940 season. Coach Green expects a strong showing despite injuries to Pat Jeoven and Joe Martin. Gate plans, pre game tickets, and announcements by Dr. John Mitchell and Blum Act are noted, with a campaign underway to fund city hall and fire station. A barbecue fundraiser on October 17 and a Ford giveaway were announced, while a car-parking crew and gate helpers prepare for the event. The town builds a new telephone building and tire truck, and a school bond election passed by a narrow margin. Sixteen lines of garbled OCR were partially deciphered to capture key local actions and civic efforts.
