Don Pierson Exhibits New 1949 Dodge to Crowd
Don Pierson drew large crowds to view his new 1949 Dodge selected by Vasco Lee as the lucky buyer. Comanche girls fell 32 to 34 in a De Leon district cage game against Lingleville. Mollie Ross shone but many shots paused on the rim and fell away. The team deserves a celebratory banquet and the Lions may host a big feed for their effort.
