ladies are accomplished art
ists and their work covers a
variety of mediums. The
only male of the group,
George Magiros, is a fourth
grader at St. Thomas whose
work shows great promose.
Jo Mullendore, 5411 Indigo,
sold her first painting, a still
life of some amaryllis and a
brasspot, at 15 but was too
shy toatten the show. Since
then she's painted hundreds
of oils, acrylics and water-
colors, sold a goodly number
of them and attends shows
with hardly a twinge of
timidity.
She is currently president
of Houston Civic Art Assoc
iation, for the second time.
Her work has been in seven
shows this year and an
eighth is scheduled for May.
She is a member of four
professional artists organi
zations and has held most of
the offices in each at one
time or another.
For years she painted only
with oils and acrylics. “I was
chicken about watercolors,"
she explains. "Because I
didn’t know what to do with
them. “Not more than oils,"
she adds, "But as a change
from them. Somtimes I feel
like painting fast as one does
with water colors. Other
times it’s comfort to be able
to go back and add a dab of
white here and there.”
Jo has a new project in this
show, handpainted station-
ary, although "this may also
be the end of the project,"
them." She, like many shw says. "Painting 250
children, had owned a set of pieces of paper gets a little

Bob Gammage grew up in the
22nd Congressional District. He
lives and works in the District.
Whenever anything happens in
the District, good or bad, it affects
him. That’s another reason why
he’s asking you to keep him in
Congress — to work for all of the
people and get the job done for
the citizens of the 22nd District.
He has earned your vote and
support.
GAMMAGE IS FOR:
■ Efficient government that cuts red tape and
fights inflation from every direction
■ Cutting wasteful spending and balancing
the federal budget
■ Fighting crime through effective local and
national law enforcement
■ Developing a National Energy Plan aimed
at American energy self-sufficiency and
reduced dependence on foreign imports.
As a member of the Interstate and Foreign
Commerce committee, subcommittee on
energy and power, and subcommittees on
transportation and commerce, he worked
for the citizens of Texas to deregulate the
well-head price of new natural gas.
I Reforming welfare system and whipping
unemployment.

I Eliminating the unfairness in the present
tax system so that each individual will
only pay his or her fair share

In his term as your congressman, Gammage has shown courage and convic-
tion. He has been for all the people. .. not a selected few. He has proven his
ability to withstand the pressure and vote a clear conscience for the good of our
great nation. With so many Texas congressmen losing important seniority it is
vital to keep a man of the stature of Bob Gammage in the U.S. Congress.
