AUSTIN, Tex. — There have, shade. Shiny new seats replac-
been some changes made!
Veteran legislators swom-in
*or a new term of office in a
r.iaag ceremony in the House of
Representatives were pleasan-
tly avyare of a change of scen-
ery since last January’s special
session.
The once-dark, dusky setting
for the biennial battle of State
lawmakers had been transform-
ed in their absence. Every desk,
•hair and table had been refin-
ed to a glowing light oak
Here Are
Hints on
Game Care
Oppose you are hunting »nd
shoot a deer or a duck, which
falls mortally wounded. Before
you can get to it, another hunt-
er beats you there and claims
the fallen game as his own.
What are your rights?
Jim had been hunting all day
without success, and had head-
ed for home when he finally
saw a doer, lie took careful aim
and h.: he deer with his first
sIktI. Although mortally wound-
ed, the doer managed to run a
short distance, with Jim in hot
p. .•suit.
Boy v, as aim riser lurking,
Fe"heard Jim’s, shot and saw a
riser i aiming toward him. How-
ever, before it reached the spot
where he was standing, the deer
fell to .the ground;
Although it was obvious that
ed the drab, worn ones in the
balcony. And the brass rails
were gleaming.
Most noticeable was a new
$20,000 gold wool carpet with a
brown Seal of Texas woven in-
to the section installed directly
in front of the speaker’s stand.
Senate Pay Problem — About
onedhird of the House now have
qualified for the 58th Legisla-
ture and have been added to
the payroll. But the 10 new
senators- elect probably won’t
start drawing their $400 month-
ly pay until January t, when
the 1963 session begins.
A recent ruling by the at-
torney general that "members
of the Legislature” now oould
qualify for the payroll brought
inquires from seven new sena-
tors as to whether they would
be included. The term "Legisla-
ture” also applies to senate
members.
But Sen. Culp Krueger of El
Campo, acting lieutenant gov-
ernor, and several other senior
senators said the official open-
ing date has been the custom-
ary time for senators to take of-
fice and they think the custom
should stand.
Senate Sweepstake*! — A small
glass Ixxwl and a handful of tiny
capsules will decide the politi-
cal destiny of Texas Senators,
come January.
Once each 10 years, Texas’ 31
senators must "draw straws" to
determine who will serve a four
year term, and who will serve
for two years.
Drawing is required by tire
state constitution.
Normally" half the state , sen-
ate is elected for 4-year terms,
overlapping with the other half
MASONS LEVEL HIGH SCHOOL CORNERSTONE
Prominent Texas Masons met in Fort Worth
recently to level the cornerstone fora $350,000
high school and auditorium at Masonic Home
and School of Texas. The structure is part of an
expansion program which already includes a
new chapel and an infirmary.
Among participants were, left to right: Dr.
J. D. Tomme Jr. of Fort Worth, president of
the Masonic Home Independent School Dis-
trict board; G. R. M. Montgomery of Fort
Worth, Past Texas Grand Master and presi-
dent of the Home’s board of directors; G. R.
M. Montgomery II of Fort Worth; John G.
Kcmmerer of Fort Worth, Past Texas Grand
Master and a Home director; Robert L. Dillard
Jr. of Dallas, Grand Master and vice president
of the board of directors, who leveled the
cornerstone; Jim VV. Wcatherby of Kerrville.
Deputy Grand Master; John R. Collard Jr. of
Spearman, Grand Senior Warden, and J. Car-
roll Hinsley of Austin, Grand Junior Warden.

J.m ran up and claimed the

Nine senators who will face
committee on highway* and ro-
ads to keep two license plates
on vehicles. Although the state
would save $200,000 annually by
using only one plate per vehicle,
police officials believe identi-
fication is easier with two.
The Distaff Side — Only one
woman will be seated in the Se-
nate and two in the House of
Representatives come January.
They are: Sen. Neiveille H.
Colson of Navasota, Rep. Myra
D. Banfield of Rosenberg, and
Rep, Maud Isaacks of El Paso.
The small percentage of wo-
men legislators (1-30 in the Sen-
ate and 2-148 in the house) is
par for1 the course in state gov-
ernment.
Although about 5,020,770 of
| Texas’ 9,960,000 citizens are wo-
men, only 50 women are among
j the 561 appointees on 87 state

ing a minor to be delinquent
and placing him in temporary
custody of his parents, has no
jurisdiction once the minor at-
tains the age of 17 in the case of
a male, and 18 in the case of
a female.”
Central State Office — The sta-
te’s 24 licensing boards may
soon be placed under a single
administrative agency.
That’s the recommendation
being considered by a special
House interim committee study-
ing operations of the boards.
Now each board has its own
administrative office.
The Texas House committee
is studying states that reported-
ly save money by having a cen-
tral office, thus pooling secre-
tarial and clerical help.
Under the proposed plan, each
board would continue to con-
duct its own examination of
applicants.
Historical Medallions — The
Texas Historical Survey Com-
mittee awarded historical build-
ing medallions to 17 buildings
noted for their place in Texas
history.
Included were the John Dew-
beiry home near Bullard: Gary
House near StarrviHc; Ginger-
bread House in Chireno; Le-
mdustrial development for Sep-
tember.
Twenty-five new plants were
opened in 21 towns, according
to the Texas Industrial Commis-
sion. Small towns such as Cen-
ter, Big Spring, Hailsville, Hal-
lettsville, Knox City, Wills Point,
and Yantis, as well as big cit-
ies, were successful in attract-
ing industry.
Campaign Costs Told — Demo-
crat John Connally spent less to
wan the November general elec-
tion than did his defeated op-
ponent, Jack Cox.
Expense reports filed with the
Secretary of State show Connal-
ly spent $193,740.
Cox reported spending a total
of $261,072.
Sorewworms Widespread — Dr.
John L. Wilbur Jr. of the U.S.
Dept. «f A*rteufTure’* Animal
reported that all but 13 coun-
ties were Infested by screw-
worms In the period from Sep-
tember 23 to October 27.
Screwworm- free countie s
were Ector, Dallam, Sherman,
Cass, Marion, San Augustine,
Sabine, Jasper, Newton and Or-
ange.
Under the screwworm eradica-
tion program, 351,551,050 sterile
files were released in October
in an area bordered by Ter-
rell County on the west; Cole-
man, Brown and Comanche co-
unites on the north, Calhoun
County on the east and the Mex-
ico border on the south.
LCRA Value Increased — The
Lower Colorado River Authority
increased its assets by $967,266
during the fiscal year that end-
ed June 30, 1962. Assets now to-
tal $74,612,618. The Authority’s
net worth increased from $3,-
500,000 to $26,048,937.
Revenues from plants at Aus-
tin, Buchanan, Granite Shoals,
Inks,. Mansfield, Marble Falls,
Comal, Kerrville and the new
Gulf Coast Water division total-
ed $540,404, while expenses ran
$418,103.
LCRA’s books have balanced
in a similar manner since 1958
about a half- million annually
for exi>enses and a half-million
annually in revenue.
Eight Fields “Slanted” — The
slant- hole scandal has spread
into eight fields in seven East
and South Texas counties.

as Railroad Commission indi-
cates 212 illegally deviated wells
have been discovered by inclin-
ation tests in 127 leases in the

WASHINGTON (UPI)-When
a political party stages a fund-
raising affair it does not sell
tickets. That would be illegal.
But if a person wants to make
a voluntary' contribution, there's
nothing wrong with sending him
a complimentary ticket.

ard Adler, who is producing the
show, candidly admitted that
he was holding something back.
Adler explained that he want-
ed to save some information
for another news conference
later. If this technique becomes
widespread, I’m going to give
up my salary and start working

In Chairman Bailey’s chair
sat Danny Kaye, who will be
one of the stars of the show.
Next to him sat Carol Bumett,
who will be a co-star.
Miss Bumett said that she

assemble at the D. C. Armory
here for two hours of fun and
games. And, by an odd coinci-
dence, tickets to the show will
be distributed to the party don-
ors.
The event will be called an
"Inaugural Anniversary Salute
to President Kennedy,” and the
proceeds — or rather the con-
-tributions — will be applied a-
gainst the campaign debt.
On the latter date, a group j planned to do a comedy sketch.
"Of Jacqueline Kennedy?”
someone asked.
"No,” she repfied. "Of Maca-
roni.”
Kaye said he didn’t plan to
do anything funny.
"I travel with a symphony
orchestra nowadays,” he said.
"I do classical music and
Biblical readings.”
