THE NEW
HARPER LONGHORN
DRILL TEAM
Sept. 5, the Harper Longhorn
Cheerleaders got together with
some of the high school girls
and discussed the type and
color of uniforms for the drill
team. They also went over
some of the yells that will be
done Sept. 15, when “The Mean
Green Harper Longhorns” play
Jarrell here at 8 p.m.
The sponsor of the drill team,
June Spencer, thought it to be
better for the drill team to wait
until the next football game,
which is to be Sept. 22 here with
Medina, before the drill team
marches with the band. That
will give the drill team mem-
bers a chance to practice and
also to get their uniforms
ready.
We hope everyone will help
support the Harper Longhorn
football team, the cheerleaders
and the new drill team.
HARPER LONGHORN
BOOSTER CLUB
The Harper Longhorn
Booster Club met at the football
field on August 31 for the an-
nual ice cream supper.
During a short program,
Jerry Hood, 1977 Booster Club
president, welcomed members
and guests and introduced
Coach Masser. After a short
talk, Coach Masser then intro-
duced Mr. Robert Fikes, a new
member of the coaching staff,
members of the 1978 Harper
Longhorn Football Team, the
cheerleaders, and majorettes
for the coming year.
Officers of the Band Booster
Club were present at the busi- I
ness meeting. The following
officers were elected for the
Athletic Booster Club: Harry
Wilke, president; Donnie Bode,
vice-president; Elva Wilson,
secretary; Annette Maner,
'easurer; and Nancy Bode,
eporter. After much discus-
sion it was decided that dues
will be $2.00 per family for the
year.
The concession stand com-
mittee members then reported
that the floor and walls have
been poured and will be raised!
on Saturday, Sept. 16, at the
site when all help will be ap-
preciated.
Mrs. Nila McMahon was
elected to act as treasurer for
the concession stand. A sepa-
rate account has been opened
under the name A & B Conces-
sion Stand (Athletic and Band)
and all business matters will be
conducted through this ac-
count.
All parents with students
involved in any athletic sports,
band, and pep squads are being
asked to help maintain the con-
cession stand during the foot-
ball games. After the initial
debt for the building has been
paid, the profits will then be
used to support all phases of
athletics (basketball, football,
track, tennis, etc.) and band
during the year.
The next regular meeting will
be at 6:30 p.m., Monday, Sept.
18, and every first Monday of
the month thereafter. Films
will be shown each Monday
night at the school at 6:30 p.m.
All parents are urged to attend
these meetings and support the
youth of the school.

Amendment”

STEAK HOUSE OPENS

H.J.R. 1 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitution allowing the
legislature to exempt in-
tangible personal prop-
erty, requiring the legis-
lature to exempt certain
household goods and per-
sonal effects, and allow-
ing the legislature to
exempt all or part of the
personal property home-
stead from state and local
property taxation.
The amendment re-
quires the legislature to
provide for the taxation
of farm and ranch land
on the basis of its produc-
tive capacity instead of
its market value and al-
lows the legislature to
provide for the taxation
of timber land on its pro-
ductive capacity.
The amendment per-
mits local governments to
extend the present exemp-
tion of not less than
$3,000 of the residence
homestead of persons 65
and older to include cer-
tain disabled persons.
The amendment grants
an exemption from public
school property taxes of
$5,000 of the market value
of the residence home-
stead. It authorizes the
legislature to grant an
additional exemption from
public school property
taxes of an amount not
to pxceed $10,000 of the
market value of the resi-
dence homesteads of per-
sons 65 years of age or
older and certain disabled
persons. If a person 65
years of age or older
qualifies for this exemp-
tion, the total amount of
public school taxes im-
posed on that person’s
homestead may not be in-
creased.
1 The amendment pre-
vents local governments
from increasing property
taxes unless the govern-
ing body provides public
notice and conducts a
public hearing. The
amendment requires the
legislature to provide by
law for each property
owner to receive notice of
the revaluation of his
property and the amount
taxes will be increased.
The amendment limits
appropriations from state
tax revenue to an amount
not to exceed Texas’ esti-
mated economic growth
rate, with the legislature
authorized to make excep-
tions for emergencies.
The amendment pro-
hibits the statewide ap-
praisal of real property
for property tax pur-
poses. Enforcement of
uniform standards and
procedures for appraisal
of property for property
tax purposes is required
to originate in the taxing
authority where the prop-
erty tax is imposed.
The wording of the
proposed amendment as
it will appear on the bal-
lot is as follows:
“The constitutional
amendment providing for
tax relief for residential
homesteads, elderly per-
sons, disabled persons,
and agricultural land; for
personal property exemp-
tions; for truth in taxa-
tion procedures, including
citizen involvement; for
a redefinition of the tax
base; for limitations on
state spending; and for
property tax administra-

tion.’
NUMBER ONE
(S.J.R. 50)
S.J.R. 50 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitution to delete an
archaic reference to the
“Deaf and Dumb Asy-
lum.” The amendment
would allow the State of
Texas to purchase prod-
ucts and services done by
handicapped individuals
in nonprofit rehabilita-
tion facilities without
complying with bid re-
quirements applicable to
other state contracts. The
amendment also would
eliminate the formality of
the approval of certain
state contracts by the
Governor, the Secretary
of State and the Comp-
troller of Public Ac-
counts.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it
will appear on the ballot
is as follows:
“The constitutional
amendment deleting the
archaic reference to the
‘Deaf and Dumb Asylum,’
allowing certain products
and services of handi-
capped individuals to be
used by agencies and de-
partments of state gov-
ernment, requiring the
procurement of other
products and services re-
quired in the operation of
state government to be
made under bids awarded
to the lowest responsible
bidder, making all such
procurement processes
subject to laws enacted
by the legislature, and
eliminating the require-
ment that the Governor,
the Secretary of State,
and the Comptroller of
Public Accounts of Texas
be personally involved
with such transactions.”
NUMBER TWO
(S.J.R. 55)
S.J.R. 55 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitution to permit
local governments to issue
bonds for the reconstruc-
tion or acquisition of fa-
cilities (land, equipment
and improvements) de-
signed to develop employ-
ment opportunities. These
bonds would be payable
solely from the revenue
from the sale or lease of
these facilities. The build-
ing or acquisition of such
facilities must be deter-
mined by the local gov-
ernment to be necessary
to develop employment
opportunities.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it
will appear on the ballot
is as follows:
“The constitutional
amendment to provide
that the legislature may
permit political subdivi-
sions to issue revenue
bonds to develop employ-
ment opportunities for its
citizens.”
NUMBER THREE
(S.J.R. 44)
S.J.R. 44 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitution which would
allow the legislature to
authorize cities and towns
to issue tax increment
bonds to finance the re-
development of blighted
areas. The bonds are to
be paid solely from reve-
nue from municipal tax
increments. Payment can-
not be made from the
revenue of municipal
taxes, utilities, or other
services.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it
will appear on the ballot
is as follows:
“The constitutional
amendment to give the
legislature the power to
authorize cities and towns
to issue bonds to finance
the redevelopment of
blighted areas and pro-
hibiting any city or town
from granting its money
or lending its credit for
such purposes.”
NUMBERfOUR
(S.J.R. 53)
S.J.R. 53 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitution to allow the
legislature to exempt from
taxation solar or wind-
powered energy devices.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it
will appear on the ballot
is as follows:
“The constitutional
amendment authorizing
the legislature to exempt
from taxjtion solar and
wind-powered energy de-
vices.”
NUMBER FIVE
(H.J.R. 37)
H.J.R 37 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitition to grant ex-
clusive jurisdiction to
justices of the peace in
civil :ases where the
amoun, in controversy
does rot exceed $200, ex-
cept vhere the legislature
gives exclusive jurisdic-
tion b another court.
Th amendment grants
justices of the peace con-
current jurisdiction with
courcy courts where the
amomt in controversy is
betveen $200 and $500,
exept where the legisla-
tor gives the county
coirt exclusive jurisdic-
tion
fhe amendment also
gants justices of the
pace concurrent jurisdic-
tion with both county and
district courts where the
amount in controversy is
between $500 and $1,000,
except where the legisla-
ture gives the county or
district court exclusive
jurisdiction.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it
will appear on the ballot
is as follows!:
“The constitutional
amendment to extend the
jurisdiction of justices of
the peace in civil cases.”
NUMBER SIX
(S4T.R.45)
S.J.R. 45 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitution to allow the
legislature to expand the
number of judges on any
court of civil appeals.
Presently courts of civil
appeals are limited to a
chief justice and two as-
sociate justices. The
amendment also would al-
low the courts to sit in
sections, with the concur-
rence of a majority of the
judges sitting in the sec-
tion necessary to decide a
case.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it
will appear on the ballot
is as follows:
“The constitutional
amendment permitting
the legislature to increase
the number of justices on
a court of civil appeals,
permitting a court of civil
appeals to sit in sections,
and requiring a concur-
rence of a majority of
justices to decide a case.”
NUMBER SEVEN
(S.J.R. 48)
S.J.R. 48 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitution eliminating
the State Building Com-
mission and the State
Building Fund. The au-
thority of the State Build-
ing Commission has been
transferred by law to the
State Board of Control.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it
will appear on the ballot
is as follows:
“The constitutional
amendment to repeal the
constitutional authority
for the State Building
Commission and the State
Building Fund.”
NUMBER EIGHT
(H.J.R. 42)
H.J.R. 42 proposes an
amendment to the Texas
Constitution allowing cer-
tain political subdivisions
or districts in the state
that can presently issue
bonds or other indebted-
ness or otherwise lend its
credit to engage in fire-
fighting activities and to
issue bonds or otherwise
lend its credit to support
such activities.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it
will appear on the ballot
is as follows:
“The constitutional
amendments authorizing
certain districts to engage
in fire-fighting activities
and to issue bonds or
other indebtedness or to
issue bonds or otherwise
lend their credit for fire-
fighting purposes.”
or no nutritional value as a

The initial safety of food
additives is determined by the
Food and Drug Administration.
However, if an additive is
used in meat or poultry prod-
ucts, the U. S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) must also
approve its use. This is handled
by USDA’s Food Safety and
Quality Service.
All additives used in meat or
poultry products must not only
meet FDA safety require-
ments, but USDA determines
that the additives will:
1. Not cause a meat or poul-.
try product to be adulterated or
misbranded.
2. Establishes appropriate
limits or restrictions on the
additives used in meat or poul-
try products.
3. Determines that the addi-
tive is effective and produces
the intended results in the
product.
Most ingredients must be
listed on the label by the
specific name of the ingred-
ients. There are some excep-
tions to this rule. Under the
law, spices, flavorings and
colors may be declared in the
ingredient statement without
naming the specific ingredient
used.
Furthermore, generic or
collective names can some-
times be used instead of the
specific name. For example
whey can be declared when it is
reconstituted whey.
Preservatives must be de-
clared on the label by common
name and function such as
ascorbic acid as a preservative
in sausage products.
Do you favor changing the
law to require listing the
specific spices, flavors, and
color ingredients?
Present your views on food
additives and how they should
be listed on food labels at the
F DA-USD A food labeling
hearing in Little Rock, Septem-
ber 18-19, Convention Center,
Robinson Auditorium Room 102
and 103, Markham and Broad-
way.
Consumers who cannot ap-
pear in person can write their
views and send them to: Office
