Principals and counselors from Terrell and Pasadena school districts toured Bastrop Middle School
Friday to quiz students and teachers about their opinions regarding the new TEAMS teaching and
modified block scheduling. ■*

and the citizen group, Mrs.
Wilcoxen said she is also studying
the likely cost of a service
qualified to provide advanced life
support with paramedic atten-
dants and potentially lifesaving
drugs and equipment.
Earlier this week Mayor David
Lock said the city has shied away
from seeking ALS ambulance
service because of the likely cost
and lack of citizen demand.
But that may be changing, said
Space camp—

ice cream. When you try to bite
into it the food falls apart.”
Also while Lindsey was at
Space Camp she won one of two
prestigious awards when she
received the Right Stuff Award.
“I asked a lot of questions and
participated in discussions,” she
said.
“I think Lindsey learned a
great deal from her trip,” Mrs.
Hickman said.
Mrs. Wilcoxen.
At this week’s council meeting
Dr. Stephen Yount said properly
equipped EMS vehicles staffed
with paramedics can save the
lives of heart attack victims and
other patients.
In many cases, if treatment
does not begin before driving to
a hospital emergency room, pa-
tients cannot be revived, accor-
ding to Yount.' Even if later
revival attempts succeed at first,
“It was a real neat contest and
we were happy for her to get ex-
posed to the Space Camp,” she
added.
e Lindsey managed to miss a
week of school to take her adven-
ture, but is required to give a
presentation about Space Camp
to her class when she returns.
According to Lindsey, she may
be a little shy speaking to her
class, but she is looking forward
to it.

above the ash were formed more
than 625,000 years ago as soils

said.
Lower terraces are younger.

Mandel.
Warily watching the skies for
signs of rain, Mandel said the
group will continue its tour today
and Sunday near San Antonio and

most such victims never leave the
hospital, he said.
Mrs. Wilcoxen said the level of
training by Bastrop Community
EMS crews has declined in recent
years, and no certified paramedic
is on its staff.
The city manager said she will
also press Bastrop County of-
ficials at least to match the city’s
subsidy for ambulance service.
The city pays $27,000 each year.
The county adds another $20,400.
But more than half the Bastrop
ambulance calls come from
areas outside the city, said Mrs.
Wilcoxen.
cash when he was arrested but
only $700 was returned to him the
next morning.
When Juarez returned to the
police station as instructed on
April 2, he was “told he was be-
ing charged with several offenses,
including ‘exhibition of accelera-
tion,’ criminal mischief, attemp-
ted aggravated assault and
resisting arrest and told to report
to the Bastrop County Sheriff’s
Office in Bastrop,” says the suit.
After reporting to the county
jail and being released, according
to the petition filed Thursday, “To
date, no further action has ever
happened on these charges.”

Bond issue-—
conditions at both elementary
schools and overcrowding at all
four of the district’s schools.
“Every child in the Bastrop
school district will benefit from
this bond issue,” said Fleming.
He cited pupils who ride school
buses three hours or more each
day, those in inferior science labs
and others who have classes in
lunchrooms, closed off hallways,
offices and teacher workrooms.
Proposed new buildings will
also have an impact on special
March 31, his wife took him to
Austin for treatment at
Brackenridge Hospital, said
Smith.
“I don’t know what caused it,
but they were not justified in
beating this man,” Smith said in
a Friday interview.
Elgin City Manager Jack Har-
zke declined to comment on the
suit, saying Mayor Jan Schroeder
was served on behalf of the city
Friday and the matter was refer-
red to city attorneys.
Harzke said he could not be cer-
tain he knew of the two-year-old
incident before seeing the suit
Friday.
The civil rights suit asks for
unspecified damages from all
defendants, plus:
•Judgement against Alba and
Matthews for assault.
•Exemplary damages against
Alba and Matthews.
•Attorney fees.
• Costs of the suit.
Most actions alleging civil
rights violations are heard in
federal district courts, but Smith
said the Juarez case is being pro-
secuted in the state court because
its docket is less crowded and the
judges have a reputation for
fairness.
“We can get justice there in
Bastrop,” Smith said.

High School.
“The funds proposed in this
bond issue will be spent solely for
school house buildings. Legally
the district cannot take left over
funds to buy school buses or pay
teacher salaries,” said Fleming.
“Another plus to the bond issue
is the number of jobs and money
it will bring into the Bastrop com-
munity, including restaurants,
gasoline and grocery stores,” he
added.
The citizen group plans to meet
again at 7 p.m. April 2 to finalize
plans and promotions.
Fleming estimates the commit-
tee needs about $3,000 to fund its
plans. The money will go for
postage and printing costs.
Besides the bank account at
Victoria Bank and Trust, dona-
tions can be taken to Kay Wesson
at her real estate office or drop-
ped off at the adminsitration
building, he said.
