Eight H urt
in Latest
Texas Storm
' By ASSOCIATED PBESS
Eight members of a farm
family were injured in north-
east Texas yesterday as tore
nadoes raided rural com-
munities for the second
straight night
The Wednesday night funnel
tore into the F. R. Cooper home,
11 miles south of Paris, Tex. The
five-room frame structure was
torn to bits.
Burney Oats, who lives a half
mile west of the Cooper home,
said “it looked like a huge fun-
nel of black smoke.’’ The Oats
home had its porch ripped off and
the barn was unroofed.
Tornadoes in West Texas and
North Texas Tuesday night killed
one person and injured 14.
The Coopers live in the Lake
Creek community between Com-
merce, Tex., and Paris.
The tnj-yred were Mrs Cooper,
\4ftrMevlin'a, 18: Loretta, 16, Vir-
gin, 12; Stella, 10; Drosi, 8; Ferna
Lee, 6; and Wayne, 2.
Five ambulances took the family
to Lamar Hospital in Paris. To-
day all eight were still in the hos-
pital but none in critical condition.
Loretta was the worst injured
with stomach and hip cuts.
Meanwhile, a cool front that
kicked up the damaging winds for
two nights was along the upper
Texas coast at dawn today.
As it moved into Orange a little
after midnight it kicked up a can-
nonade of thunder which woke
most of the sleeping residents. The
storm lasted for only a brief period
and was accompanied by a hard
rain.
Temperatures today as the
sun came up ranged from 45 at
Dalhart to 78 at Catulla, aheaid of
the front.
Until last night at midnight,
24-hour rainfall totals reported in-
cluded .02 of an inch at Beaumont

Sabine Bill
' BATON ROUGE. La. (Spl)
--Louisiana expressed solid
faith in the proposed develop-
ment of the Sabine River
watershed yesterday.
The Louisiana House of Repre-
sentatives unanimously approved
a bill ratifing the Sabine RlvCr
"Compact with Texas. The rote was
75-0.
The measure now goes to the
Senate where quick passage, fol-
lowed by early signature of the
governor, is expected.,..
Immediately following final en-
actment of the Louisiana ratifi-
cation bill, representatives of both
states will go to Washington where
identical measures, providing the
federal government’s approval,
already have been introduced.
The compact becomes effective
upon ratification by Congress and
the signing of that-bill by Presi-
dent Eisenhower. In the fasp of
the solid support given .the com-
pact in Legislature of both states,
little if any opposition is expected
in Washington.
Worked out by a compact com-
mission made up of representa-
tives of Texas, Louisiana and the
U.S. Army Engineers, the agree-
ment will regulate the division
