TWO THOUSAND
SEE DANCE AO
a
Ruth St. Denia and Ted
Shawn Thrill Crowd at
Harlingen
(Special to The Herald)
HARLINGEN, Nov. 7.—Two thou
sand Valley people were thrilled last
night by one of the most interesting |
programs ever presented in the
Lower Rio Grande Valley—by two
of the world’s greatest dancers,
Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn.
The famous dancers were pre
sented in the Fair park auditorium.
The huge auditorium was almost
filled.
From the opening number to the
ciose, the audience was held by the
intense dramatic interpretation of
difficult classic music and symbolic I
phantasies given by the Denishawns.
Miss St. Denis, with her delicate j
artistry, where a slight motion of j
.lie hand will convey more meaning j
than words appeared in a number
of solo numbers.
Ted Shawn, who has improved his j
art re me rkably in the last five years. |
interpreted dances with a finesse j
and understanding which caused J
the audience to Insist on an encore j
to many of his numbers.
The two great dar.rers reached j
the peak of their performance in
some duet numbers, particularly in
Toilers of the Soil, in which the
slow, tragic meaning was conveyed
with great understanding.
A symphonic quartet, headed by
Sol Cohen, violinist, furnished music
for the dancers, and played several
selections on the program.
The Denishawn troupe arrived
yesterday morning, from San An
tonio, and toured the Valley yester
day, leaving last night for Hous
ton.

Raymondville 6-0
RAYMONDVILLE. Nov. 7—A town
team called the Riff-Raff played
the Raymondville High school team
on their home field Tuesday even

It was a regulation match ac
cording to high school rules and
the teams proved to be very evenly
matched. The score was made
when, near the end of the first quar
ter a punt went out of bounds on
the ten yard line and put the Ray
mondville High with the ball almost
cn their own goal line. A short
kick by the high school followed
by a end run by Bill McCharen of
the Riffs placed the ball on the
High School 3 yard line as the quar
ter ended. On the first play of
the second quarter. Harris carried
the ball over for a touchdown.

THINK FERGUSON WILL BACK
EARLE MAYFIELD CANDIDACY
AUSTIN, Nov. 7-UD- Former
Unite* States Senatoi Earle B.
Mayfield has not entered the gov
ernor's race formally, but his friends
evidently have literally shoved him
in, if one is to take the general
distribution of cards advocating his
nomination and election as ind
icative.
••\Ve ask y-u to vote for Earle
B. Mayfield for Governor, in the
Democratic Primaries 1930,” reads
the card which has been pretty
generally disseminated.
Continuing, it reads:
• He is the ablest and best in
formed on government affairs of
any man in the race.
• He knows more about economics
and transportation and their rel- i
ation to the farmer, labor and
public.
“He never advocated or voted for
anything that was not for the
public welfare.
'“He is a gentleman, a worthy
citizen and a statesman.
"He is the only logical solution
for taking the taxes off our homes,
farms and small business.
"These cards were printed with
out Mr. Mayfield’s knowledge.”
So many people have Senator
Mayfield informed in "confidence”
that he intends running for gov
ernor that his intentions are not
a secret any longer. It is taken for
granted here that his formal an
nouncement will be made in a
course on a few weeks.
Expect Announcement.
It is even widely talked that he
is at work on his platform and
that when he turns loose his an
nouncement he will release the
planks on which he will base his
candidacy.
There are many In political
circles, who recalling former Gov.
Ferguson's advocacy of the re
electian of Senator Mayfield in
the run-off last year believe that
Ferguson is planning to espouse
Mayfield’s candidacy.
They believe that Ferguson’s
statement of recent release in
which he gave out a tentative
platform for use . i the event he
should become a candidate (strong
ly hinting that he might make
the race) was for the purpose of
working up interest among his
followers so he could more easily
deliver them to someone of his
choosing.
Hints “Dark Horse”
Ferguson h- repeatedly said
that the “next governor of Texas"
has not yet announced. That means
that he does not choose any of
eight who are avowed candidates:
Oscar F. Holcombe. Houston; E. G.
Senter, Dallas; Thomas B. Love,
Dallas; Miss Katie Daffan, Ennis;
Barry Miller, Dallas; T. N. Maur
itz, Ganado; V.’. Gregory Hatcher.
Dallas; and Charlton Brown, Min
eral Wells.
In the event Gov. Moody does
not definitely decide to become a
candidate for a third term, either
R. S. Sterling of Houston, chair
man of the :-,tate Highway Com
mission. or Attorney General R.
L. Boboitt, is certain to get into
the field.
Ferguson may r.ot be planning on
Indorsing Mayf‘?ld, but many be
lieve he does r.ot intend running
himself, but throwing his support
to someone else.
