Some 700 Texas co-op
leaders joined lost week in
celebrating 50 years of rural
electrification. They cited the
record as reason for the
celebration-from 97 percent
with electric service today.
In compiling this record,
Texas' 80 rural electric
systems have constructed
more than 241,000 miles of
tinea throughout the rural
areas of all but nine of Texas'
254 counties. They're now
looking forward to connecting
their one-millionth meter
later this year.
Reference to the milestone
punctuated sessions of the
45th annual meeting of the
Association of Texas Electric
Cooperatives. More than 700
persons registered for the July
29-31 meeting in Austin. A
focal point of the gathering
was a program one evening
citing the late President
Lyndon B. Johnson for his
particular contributions to
the rural electric record.
Voting delegates elected
three men to two-year terms
on the board of directors: Sam
Houston of Hill County EC,
Hollis E. Joslin of Johnson
County EC, and J.R. (Russ)
Vander Zee of Bandera EC.
The board in turn selected
new officers: Sam Houston,
president, succeeding Bill
McGinnis of Denton County
EC, Hollis E. Joslin, vice-
president, and James Barr of
Coleman County EC, secre-
tary-treasurer.
The Texas Rural Electric
Women's Association elected
Mrs. Pat McAlister of North
Plains EC Texas member of
the national board. Mrs. J.R.
Vander Zee was elected to the
TREWA board.
Rural FViends, a political
action group for the
cooperatives, elected three
new officers: Tommie Cutler,
ussistant manager of Taylor
EC, is the new chairman; Jim
Springs, general manager of
DeWitt County EC is vice-
chairman; and Sid Stevenson,
president of Bluebonnet EC,
is secretary-treasurer.

T’ANKS FOR THE MEMORIES
When you hear the word recycling, do
you think of newspapers, glass bottles,
aluminum cans? How about wine vats?
The Inglenook-Napa Valley winery is
using redwood from its 106-year-old wine
aging tanks to make new doors for its
building. The winery is undergoing a $6
million renovation. Inglenook spokesmen
say that not only will the redwood doors
add a sense of history to the project,
theyll also save the company about $4,000 '
over the cost of buying new dodrs.
Out at the Inglenook winery, a lot of
people must be humming an old tune ...
called “T'anks For The Memories.” ▲
