year to promote national History
Day, as well as segments at the
screening that will be used for
future segments of Year By Year
For Kids.
The History Channel is the
exclusive cable television sponsor
of National History Day, which is
actually a five-day (June 11-15)
student competition that is the cul-
mination of year-long educational
program that fosters academic
achievement and intellectual
growth among secondary school
students.
Initiated in 1974, National Histo-
ry Day is a highly regarded national
competition involving
450,000 students, 800,000 parents
and more than 50,000 teachers and
media specialists from all over the
United States.
“Conflict and Compromise in
History” is the themed topic chosen
this year for the student presenta-
tions that will be judged during the
National History Day Celebrations.
Two Baytown Junior School stu-
dents, Emily Tucker and Hayley
Futrell, will attend and compete at a
National History Day celebration in
Washington, D.C. on June 14. The
two are sponsored by Carol Urbani,
a teacher at Baytown Junior. The
students and their project, entitled
“David G. Burnet, The Flickering
Light In Texas’ Darkest Hour,” will
be among those featured on a tele-
vision special to be broadcast on
A&E’s The History Channel, kick-
ing off a year-long campaign “His-

The History Channel’s in-house
H-TV production unit will be on
hand to follow the hosts of Year By

DRUCILLA COLAND
MEADOWS HICKOK
Funeral services for Drucilla
Coland Meadows Hickok, 79, of
Baytown will be held at 10 a.m. on
Wednesday, June 14, 1995, at
Navarre Funeral Home with the
Rev. Jim Arthur officiating.
Mrs. Hickok died on Monday,
June 12, in a local nursing home.
She was bom on Nov. 20, 1915,
in Grand Saline and had been
member of Coady Baptist Church.
She was next to the oldest of
eight children of Claude and Lula
Meadows (now deceased). She
was very small in her youth, very
fast, and athletically inclined. She
played on a women’s softball team
in the 1940s, the Humble Oil-
erettes, sponsored by Humble Oil
and Refining Company, now
Exxon.
She was a very experienced and
excellent hairdresser and had a
large and faithful clientele before
her health started to go.
Mrs. Hickok was slow to make
long term friendships, but once a
friendship was made, it endured
and her friends loved her dearly.
Many of those “older” friends
have since departed. She could
appear to be sometimes gruff in
manner, but her heart was big as
Texas as all her friends and family
can testify.
She was preceded in death by
her first husband, Chester Chan-
dler and son, George Douglass
Chandler.
She is survived by granddaugh-
ter, Tina Kay Taylor of Baytown;
great-grandchildren, Michael
Wayne Taylor and Kimberly Kay
Taylor; brothers and sisters-in-law,
Durwood and Mae Meadows of
Baytown, Bascum and Maxine
