Pedigo then suggested that Mrs
Russell keep careful track of the
number of duplications reported
by the tax districts to help deter-
mine an answer to the question.
Board Members Kenneth Booth
and Ted Price both quizzed Rider
and Mrs. Russell about the need
for some of the items listed under
ATS’s services in the contracts.
When, stressing the time ele-
ment, Mrs. Russell pointed to the
vast number of changes expected
to be made in the rolls this year.
Judge Coffield hinted that the
changes might not be the district’s
responsibility.
"I think this year we’re going to
have an awful lot of corrections,”
Coffield conceeded, “(but)

The city manager also said the
city’s tax attorney reported, "You
can’t pre-pay taxes.”
Mel Chapman, owner of
Nocona Belt Company, had of-
fered to either donate $10,000
towards the sewer project in lieu of

“The city’s probably going to
put the lift station in ourselves and
save that money too," Sparks add-
ed.
Original estimates by the
engineers called for a total ex-
pense of $30,000 to contract all
the work and purchase the
materials and lift station.
“We hope to get it for
something less than $20,000.”
Sparks said of the plan to use city
labor.

Dr. William J. Teague, a
member of the Nocona High
School Hall of Honor and current
president of Abilene Christian
University, has been selected as
the speaker for the 'March 6
Nocona Chamber of Commerce
Banquet.
Martha Reed, chairman of the
Banquet Committee, । made the
announcement Monday at the
monthly Chamber Board of Direc-
tors meeting.
She noted that Dr. Teague, a
nationally reknown after-dinner
speaker, humorist and educator,
had accepted the request to return
to Nocona again as an after-
dinner speaker.
Dr. Teague was recently well
received after speaking to a
$50-a-plate benefit for the
Nocona Library Association last
May.
A 1944 graduate of Nocona
High School, Teague was a
member of the 1944 state cham-
pionship basketball team at NHS.
He received his bachelor’s
degree from Abilene Christian
College, his master’s from Colum-
bia University and his doctorate
from UCLA.
He worked at ACC for six years
as an executive assistant to the
president. From 1957 to 1959 he
was vice president for develop-
ment at HardingCollegein Searcy,
Ark. He then became a vice presi-
dent at Peppeidine University in
Los Angles until he went to work
for William J. Teague Associates
in 1964 providing services to mid-
dle and upper industrial and in-
stitutional executives.
From 1972 to 1978 he was an
administrative vice president for
the Purex Industries, Inc., before
going to work for Kerr-McGee
Corp as a vice president, a posi-
tion he held until accepting the
post as President of ACU this past
August.
An elder in the Church of
Christ, Teague was his party’s
nominee for the U.S. Congress in
1968. He served from 1968 to 1971
as a commissioner for Western In-
terstate Commission for High
Education and from 1969 through
1972 as a director on the
whether or not they should be
made through this contract I don’t
know."
Rider, continuing his sales
pitch, noted ATS has developed a
computer program which will
print out a scale drawing of the
outline of a building.
Booth responded, "We ought to
be able to do without the
pictures.”
"We need to do something real
fast if we intend to have a tax roll
out next year on time," Mrs.
Russell persisted.
When she added that the
building outlines were needed.
Judge Coffield reminded her.
"You will have that on your ap-
praisal cards."
