Outdoor cooking is definitely
here to stay as long as the good
weather holds out.
Besides being real fun for the
family, outdoor cooking offers a
good escape if you’re having the
kitchen remodeled or painted.
With the new outdoor gas grills
you can go as far as cooking
breakfast, lunch and dinner on the
patio, and by using picnic equip-
ment such as paper plates and
throw-away utensils, you need nev-
er wash a dish.
Perhaps this idea is a bit far-
fetched for everyday living, but it
might be fun to do on a weekend
sometime.
For breakfast, you could have
the regular fare of bacon, eggs
and pancakes, all prepared in
throw-away aluminum foil uten-
sils.
At lunchtime, what better could
you serve than grilled cheese
sandwiches with potato chips and
strips of carrot and celery?
For the dinner menu, prepare
Fancy Hamburgers and roasted
corn on the cob, the cook-out way.
FANCY HAMBURGERS
IV2 pounds ground beef
2 onions, chopped
Steak sauce
Make eight hamburger patties
by pressing portions of the ground
beef between sheets of waxed pa-
per until very thin and flat. Make
a filling from the chopped raw
onion mixed with steak sauce. Put
filling between each two patties
and crimp edges firmly together.
Broil on gas grill set at medium
heat for five minutes on each
side.
GRILLED CORN ON THE COB
Clean the corn and reserve the
husks. Butter corn well and sprin-
kle with salt and pepper. Wrap
each ear in a husk, then in heavy
aluminum foil, twisting ends
tightly. Place on outdoor gas grill
and cook 20 to 25 minutes. Turn-
ing once.

SCHOOL FUND ALLOTMENT
APPROVED
State Board of Education rais-
ed the per student apportionment
of state available school fund
money to local districts from $78.50
to $81.50.
This $3 per capita hike repre-
sents an overall $7,600,000 raise in
available fund aid to the districts
for 1964-65, based on a current
estimate of more than 2,500,000
students.
Comptroller Rober S. Calvert es-
timated the fund for the coming
school year at $218,300,000. Board
allocated $10,500,000 to finance the
cost of purchasing and handling
text books. This left $207,700,000
to be distributed on a per capita
basis
This increase means no increase
in overall state aid. Allocations to
all but the few prosperous “bud-
get balance” districts for salaries
and operations will be decreased by
an amount equivalent to the avail-
able fund boost.
Dr. L. S. Richardson, Brazos-
port Public Schools superintendent,
was appointed to the 1964 state
textbook committee to study books
offered for school adoption.
Board also agreed to name a
study committee to look into a
proposal for a $1,400,000 junior col-
lege at Pampa.
A policy change directed that
more time in driver education
courses be spent on behind-the-
wheel instruction and less on gen-
eral safety lectures.
YOUTH CONFERENCE HELD
Some 1,800 teenagers from 230
counties convened here for the at-
torney general’s second Youth
Conference. All are outstanding
teenagers who were sponsored by
a civic, church or school group.
Purpose of the conference is to
promote a free exchange of ideas,
and then inspire the youngsters
to go home and offer help to curb
potential teenage troublemakers.
Attorney General Carr, confer-
ence sponsor, delivered the key-
note address. He brought them
up-to-date on two pressing prob-
lems — school dropouts and juve-
nile delinquency — and said that
adult leaders need help from the
new generation.
Other speakers included Bernard
M. Suttler, Federal Bureau of In-
vestigation; Dr. Paul M. Stevens,
director of the Southern Baptist
Radio and Television Commission;
Department of Public Safety Di-
rector Homer Garrison, Jr.; House
Speaker Byron Tunnell; and Fort
Worth Judge Wright Armstrong,
Jr.

THE ART OF LIVING
Someone has made the observa-
tion that God is the Original Art-
ist: When He conceived the world,
that was poetry; when He formed
it, that was sculpture; when He
put into it beauty and color, that
was painting; and when He peopl-
ed it with living beings, that was!
the grand, divine, eternal drama.1
It is our common experience
that exposure to great art lifts the
spirit into a sense of harmony with
the infinite and the eternal. One
cannot visit the fine art collec-
tions or the famous cathedrals of
this country and Europe without
feeling awe and gratitude before
what man has created under God’s
inspiration.
Furthermore, the thoughtful per-
son who responds to a true work
of art develops what might be
called “the art spirit.” He may
not become an artist in the tech-
nical sense of the word, but he
seeks to carry into daily life the
same awareness of beauty, and the
same faithfulness to high stand-
ards of workmanship, which char-
acterize the painter, the sculptor
or the musician. He realizes there
can be an art of being a good
parent or friend, an art of being
a good business or professional
man, an art to be followed in all
human relations.
As we think along this line we
realize that Christ called men to
the highest of all arts, the art of
living. When He gave the central
commandments to love God and
to love man He was setting a pat-
tern that would bring harmony
into the individual life and into
the life of society. He was calling
men to a sense of meaning and
dignity in human existence, and
a true perspective on life’s values.
He was demonstrating, both -by
word and example, that the high-
est art of all is that of humble and
joyous awareness of God.

Driver's Seat
When more than 43,000 people
are killed by automobiles in one
year (1963), tragedy has visited
a lot of people who were friends
and family of the dead. Another
tragedy is that many of those
deaths could have been prevented
by safer highways, but weren’t.
No one pretends that all fatali-
ties can be prevented. But, even
efforts to reduce their number —
to convince people to drive more
safely—has resulted in people driv-
ing less safely. The accident rate
per 100,000 people has increased
in each of the past two years.
If we’re going to prevent acci-
dents we would be wise to await
more persuasive mass communica-
tions before trying to convince
people to drive safely, and, mean-
while, concentrate upon improving
highway environment.
.Collisions between vehicles would
become rare if opposing directions
of traffic flow were separated by
space, and by barriers; if inter-
sections were eliminated by over-
passes; if direct access to high-
ways from adjoining property was
avoided. Interstate highways in-
corporate all these safety fea-
tures.
The number of injuries and
deaths resulting from increasingly
more frequent running-off-the-road
accidents could be reduced by wid-
er lanes; wide shoulders; protec-
tion of all physical obstructions
such as light posts by guard rails;
wide bridges, and straighter curv-
es.
Traffic engineers generally agree
that light, too, prevents accidents
and protects pedestrians. The
well-lighted streets of some cities
give the lie to the complaint by
cities with dark streets that light
costs too much. A far greater
cost is property damage and the
potential productivity of traffic ac-
cident victims.
However, it is economically im-
practcal to light rural roads, where
about 70 per cent of all fatali-
ties occur, more than half at night.
The alternative to lights is signs
which glow in the dark, and reflec-
tive striping for the edges of roads.
There’s no doubt that highways
can be made safer. Now it’s a
matter of balancing money against
human life and determining which
weighs the most.

QUIZ
YOU CAN’T ENFORCE A BET
Is a bet with a friend, with wit-
nesses present, a valid contract
upon which you can collect in
court? Can you force a person to
pay off a bet that he fmade with
you?
Jim was the town’s most loyal
supporter of the Marysville base-
ball team, even though the team
was having a disappointing sea-
son. Tom, a supporter of Johns-
town, a rival team, offered to bet
Jim a sizable sum of money that
Johnstown would beat Marysville.
Jim was quick to accept and
asked several bystanders if they
would be witnesses to the bet.
That weekend Marysville won,
but Tom refused to pay. Jim
claimed that the bet amounted to
a valid and binding contract. He
wanted to bring a lawsuit against
Tom to collect the money that he
felt Tom legally- owed him. How-
ever, he was advised that he did
not have a case.
The bet that they made was a
gambling contract, and as such
was illegal. Where both parties
assert rights founded on a con-
tract which is illegal and void, the
court will refuse to enforce it,
leaving the parties just where they
placed themselves, and as they
were before coming into court.
The court has said that they owe
it to public justice and to their
own integrity to refuse to enforce
contracts essentially violating
morality or public policy. It is a
judicial duty always to turn a
claimant upon such a contract out
of court regardless of how the
character of the contract is made
to appear.
In this case, even though Jim
could prove that he had made a
contract with Tom, and regardless
of the number of witnesses Jim
could call into court to swear to
the terms of the contract, the con-
tract itself was an illegal one,
made for an illegal purpose, gamb-
ling, and as such the courts will
refuse to enforce it.
The courts will allow great free-
dom to people in the making of
agreements between themselves,
but they draw the line when the
agreement made is illegal. The
courts will not aid people in break-
ing the law.
