ODESSA OUT — The expect-
ed bumper crop of college stu-
dents in 1985 will have two
more state colleges to choose
from. Angelo State College in
San Angelo and Pan American
College in Edinburg join the
state-supported system in the
Call of 1965.
But Odessa Junior College
still will be a junior college,
despite strong efforts by Rep.
George Cook of Odessa and Sen.
Frank Owen III of El Paso.
STATE STUDIES PROJECT-
ED—When the 58th legislative
session ended, lawmakers im-
mediately began to study pos-
sible legislation for the 59th
Legislature.
Interim committees of legis-
lators will look into guidance
training testing in public schools;
boating safety; reservoir plann-
ing; Texas bays; care and dis-
covery of tuberculosis cases;
poverty and indigency in the
state; State and Local Tax
Policy; and a thorough survey
of the oil and gas industry.
WOMEN WIN SMALL VIC-
TORY The armv of women's
clubs, led by Mrs. Uen^ ne Tab-
olowsky of Dn" ~ '.ost their
session-long battle to get the
Legislature to approve a pro-
posed constitutional amendment
bv Sen. Bill Moore of Bryan to
provide "equal rights" for
women.

Moor's amendment was lodged
in a reluctant House Insurance
committee at the session's end.
But they did gain something
in the way of equal property
rights under bills passed by
Rep. George Cowden of Waco to:
1. Give married women the
right to manage and sell their
separate property without their
husband's consent.
2. Take away the "examina-
tion apart"' required cf notaries
public.
NEW AG SKIPS RECORD—
Alty. Gen Waggoner Cart re-
ports that his Bond Diviskt* set
arilill^i^edrff for bonds ex-
amined and 'approved during the
first four' months of his adrnttw
istration.
He stated that the record' of
274 bnd issues approved — J189.-
000,000 worth — exceeded the
first third of anjr calendar year
since the Attorney General's of-
fice was first given "these duties
in 1905.'
Also since January 1, parr's
office has handled a total' of
1.311 cases: 986 won, 61 lost and
264 disposed of in other ways.
COTTON DEADLINE EX-
TENDED—Agriculture Commis-
sioner John C. White announced
a 10-day extension of the cotton
planting deadline in 17 coastal
counties Extension to June 1
was due to extremely dry
weather in the coastal bend area.
Planting of the state's 1963
cotton ciop is three-fourths
complete, accordng to the Texas
Crop and Livestock Reporting
Sisrvico.
JUDGES' PAY—Another leg-
islative study will concern the
pay needs of judges.
One of the most controversial
subjects during this legislative
=ession has been the proper pay
for district judges.
State pays all district judges
rin annual salary of $12,000.
Many counties supplement this.
Manv morp b«ve asked their
reDresentativs to nass bills this
session to authorize county sup-
plements.
Lawmaker* from districts
where iudges pet onlv $12,000
or a slight supplement have bat-
tled every bill that called for
increased pay. Some increases
would have run as high as $20 -
000 a vear. Rural members arcue
that judicial salaries like that
cause too much competition.
Rep. Maurice Pipkin of
Brownsville noted that creation
of a new Court of Civil Appeal?
in Corpus Christi and the open-
ing of three justice jobs at $15.-
000 caused a flood of applica-
tions.
GOLD IN THEM HILLS- Peo-
ple who think a hidden fortune
may lie "somewhere north of the
Big Bend" may get a chance to
test their theory under a new
iaw. Tt allows prospector permits
for f>40 acres, at 25 cents an acre
• nr.ual rental, for a maximum
of five vears.
Rep. Grainger Mcllhany ot
Wheeler, author of the bill,
noted that present law limits a
hard-metals prospector to 40
acres .
WATERSHEDS—Speed-up in
planning watershed flood pro-
tection projects won approval
from the Senate-House confer-
ence committee 1 on appropria-
tions.
It allocated $100,000 a year to
the State Soil Conservation
board to, be used to plan small
watershed programs.
U. S. Soil Conservation Ser-
vice. funds for planning are
limited So some watershed dis-
tricts ; have . raised ' money and
hired the planning done rather
than .wait for. the: U. S.
State program will help in the
same fashion "
SALT WAffl^ta^ agencies
are moving deeper wit} the field
of stopping oilfield pollution of
fresh water strata, j
New Texas Water Pollution
Control Board gives oilmen^in
Gaines County until December 1
to stop using open pits for salt
water disposal
Railroad Commission issued a
similar order for Menard and
part of Schleicher Counties.
Agencies have concurrent pow-
ers in this field.
EEACH SPEEDS—Voters said
last November that it would be
fine with them if the Legisla-
ture gave Gulf Coast county
commissioners courts authority
to pass ordinances regulating
soeed and littering on public
beaches like Padre Island,
Rep. James L Lattlfflore of
Corpus Christi passed such a
soeeding bill through the House.
Ironically, he was killed in a
traffic accident
But Governor Connally felt
the law was too vague, because
of amendments placed in it by
the House. So he vetoed it.
Rep. Charles Scoggins, Corpus
Chrsti Republican wh"> replaced
Lattimore. tried to get the House
to override the governor's veto.
Although he got a majority
vote of 78-62, it fell short of the
two-thirds needed to override.
BILLS SIGNED — In recent
days Governor Connally has
signed into law bills that make
San Angelo and Pan American
colleges state-supporlfcd, senior
colleges; authorize commissioners
courts to appropriate monies for
historical markers and monu-
ments; provide for annexation
by municipalities; authorize a
70-mile speed limit; and allow
weekly newspapers to miss two
issues a year and still retain
their legality.
Also, change the name of
A&M College to Texas A&M
University; authorize counties to
issue bonds to establish homes
for the needy; and provide for
emergency succession to state
offices in the event of an attack
or a disaster.

TEXAS LEADS — This state

Highway engineers from other

countries who want to know
how it has" been done heard

gineer D. G. .Greer speak on the
subject in Washington, D. C.
A pay-as-you-go< plan' has
been one secret of success,- Greer
says, in building a highway net-
work of 65,000 miles. Some other
states run into road delays be-
cause of bond elections and
sales.
Greer said his department's
motto is "Total road service to
all the people."
The highway administrator
must not be guilty of favoritism
for one region Over another," he
stated.
