cooking hints
cFrom °7iome ^Economists

RICE THAT'S DIFFERENT: LONG GRAIN
If you’re one of those people who say “Rice is’rice-
it all tastes and looks the same,” there is something
you should know.
Although the various types of rice are similar, there is
one type, American long grain rice, that is different and of
premium quality. Look at a package of long grain rice and
«:) ".youi’ll s^oiilenderjilowg'grains, snowy white in fcolbK After
•i t booking, long grain- rice iis tender, separate, and light. Its
flavor-is delicate and complemeWtaity almost ‘all foods. -
Some other people say rice is difficult to cook. The
truth is, long grain rice is very simple to prepare. Follow
these directions for perfect rice every time: bring to boil
2 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir in 1 cup American
long grain rice, lower heat; cover, simmer 20 minutes.
If there is a “trick” to cooking rice, it’s that the heat
should be turned low enough to prevent “boilovers,”.but
high enough that a small amount of steam escapes arc id
the edge of the saucepan. This steam tells you tha* che
rice is cooking and that it will be done.
Rice cookery is necessary to many cuisines, but. it is
especially important to Creole or Southern recipes. One
favorite Southern rice recipe, Country Captain, consists of
economical chicken simmered in a mild curry-tomato
sauce and served over fluffy, tender long grain rice.
1 THOUGHT FOE THE VfEEK
JIMMY HARREU
The tune of Auld Lang Syne so frequently heard on
New Years is probably the oldest custom attached to
the "old times." It is a good custom unaffected by
changing times from one year to another. Every New
Year poses problems unheard of in the past and the
fact that we have problems should give us a challenge
- and hope.
Shortages in many things, especially in energy,
indicate the extent of past mistakes. But the past is
over with. The present exists. The future is coming.
And both the present and the future reflect the need,
the absolute necessity to change the changing times.
This thought is beautifully expressed by an
unknown author- "Another year behind us, into the
toils of time, Another year will find us, Far upward in ‘
our climb...So, friend set high your banners, unfurl
your colors bright, - Your march is ever onward,
Success shall crown the fight"...To which we add a
personal hope - with the help of God, may you all have
a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New year....

New grand piano *
AUSTIN, Texas (Spl.)-The
sounds of music emanating
these days from The Universi-
ty of Texas Music Department
are made rifcher by one of the
finest musical instruments in
the world—a new Steinway
concert grand piano from
Hamburg, Germany.
Few music departments in
the U S. have a Hamburg
Steinway, says Dr. William
Race, head of UT’s keyboard
division.
The glossy black piano will
be used for recitals by faculty
members, visiting artists and
advanced piano students.
Funds for its purchase came
from a benefit recital by the
piano faculty, private gifts
and the UT president’s pffice.

HOME BUYER
CLINIC
By William J. McAuliffe, JrTjj
Executive Vice President
American Land Title Association
LATE HAZARDS
Before purchasing a home,
remember that a person with
a claim against the property
may not turn up until after
the transfer of ownership—
when this can be an expen-
sive problem.
This happened in the
southwest when an affidavit
obtained in a
title search’
before com-
pletion of pur-
chase stated
that the owner
of an undivid-
__ed one-sixth
McAuliffe interest in the
real estate had died leaving
‘no heirs.
Sometime after the trans-
action was completed, this
supposedly deceased person
filed a claim against the pur-
chaser for one-sixth of the
purchase price. Fortunately,
the buyer had obtained
owner’s title insurance and
was protected.
Since the claim was valid,
the insuring title company
■paid the claimant for his in-
tent .tp.ijfttttathq.matter aftd
spar^jthe ,purchaser ftowy. a
financial loss.
Advance safeguards are an
excellent idea when you buy
a home or other real estate.

Reports
AUSTIN—Sunset Laws are
one of the most widely dis-
cussed governmental issues
in state legislatures today.
The Texas Legislature is no
exception. In fact, many
give credit to the members
of the Texas Legislature for
originating the initial con-
cept.
Basically, Sunset Laws
mandate that the legislature
periodically examine the
performance of agencies it
has created. If such a re-
view indicates that the
agency no longer operated in
the public interest or if its
activities are essentially be-
ing duplicated by other gov-
ernmental units, then the
legislature will cause the
sun to "set” and the agency
will be legislated out of
existence.
The idea for Sunset Laws
first came to Texas law-
makers' attention during the
1974 Texas Constitutional
Convention. At that time
we referred to it as the
"self-destruct" clause of the
proposed new constitution.
The idea was simple: every
statutory state agency with
statewide jurisdiction and
appointed officers, except
institutions related to higher
education, would go out of
existence after 10 years,
unless the legislature took
action to, renew their life.
However, the voters of
Texas chose not to approve
the new constitution or sub-
sequent attempts to amend
the present constitution.
Ironically, the State of
Texas has been the leader in
by Bill Clayton
this very important legisla-
tive initiative, but has yet to
adopt for its ovfri use the
concept of Sunset Laws.
In the last several years
several other states have en-
acted Sunset Laws and most
legislative bodies are in the
process of considering how
best to employ the Sunset
concept. Even the Congress
is holding hearings to deter-
mine if there are practical
applications of Sunset to be
made within the federal bur-
eaucracy.
No doubt we have yet to
see the last of Sunset Laws.
One proposal has already
been submitted for consider-
ation by the next legislature
and we can anticipate that
there will be others. Methods
of streamlining state govern-
ment will be a continuing
issue next session and Sunset
Laws are sure to be a part of
those deliberations.

Future lawyers
AUSTIN, Texas (Spl.)—A
research project under way at
The University of Texas may
enable law schools to devise
curricula for what the law will
be like 30 years from now.
Entitled “Lawyers in the
Next Generation,” the project
will focus on future in-
novations that may affect the
legal profession. Among such
innovations are advertising by
lawyers, no-fault insurance,
paralegal personnel, entry of
women and minorities into the
field and use of ad-
ministrative hearings to settle
disputes.
Conducting the study are
Profs. Alfred G. Smith of the
Center for Communication
Research and Allen E. Smith
of the Law School.
PRESENTED BY THE
STATE BAR OF TEXAS
Q: Our daughter in junior
high school is threatening to
move into an apartment
with several other girls as
■eon oo she reaeheo the age
of 17. She keepa insisting
that when she becomes 17,
she is no longer o minor and
therefore cannot be held
against her wishes. At what
age is she no longer reepoo-
sible to the rules of the
heme?
A: Juvenile court jurisdic-
tion is limited to acts com-
mitted by children after
they are 10 years old and
prior to their 17th birthday.
After they reach the age of
17, there is no law which
gives a parent authority to
force a child to return to
their home unless the child
already was under the con-
trol of the juvenile court.
Q: A tree-trimming con-
tractor came to our house
soliciting business. If we
hire him, would we be liable
if he's injured while working
in our yard?
A: A homeowner is not re-
sponsible to an independent
tree-trimming contractor if
the contractor is injured
while working in the home
owner’s yard, so long as the
homeowner does not create
a special hazard or interfere
with the contractor. How-
ever, if the homeowner
attempts to control the con-
tractor, or supplies his tools,
the homeowner could be
held responsible for an in-
jury. The key question is
one of “independence”. If
the contractor is indepen-
dent, the homeowner is not
responsible; if the contrac-
tor is controlled or directed
by the homeowner, the
homeowner may be assum-
ing legal obligations for his
safety.
Q: My neighbor’s tree
the roofs on my carport and
garage. The Bmba are w low
I can't build a small hot
bouse in that port of the
yard. Can I trim these limbs
back even with the fence on
the property line?
A: Common law property
rights give the owner of land
the ownership of the land
beneath the property and
the space above. A neigh-
bor's tree limbs extending
onto your property may be”
cut at the point where the
limb crosses the property
line. However, your neigh-
bor has a legal right to
require that his permission
be given before you can
trespass on his property in
removing tree limbs.
Q: I plan to list a resident
of Texas as executor of my
will. Is it legal for me to
name a co-executor who
lives in another state?
A: A non-resident may be
named executor of a Texas
will. State law requires that
if the executor is a person,
an agent for service living in
Texas must be designated
by that person. If the execu-
tor is a bank, the law sets'
out two qualifications: first,
that the state in which the
bank is located must have
reciptrocity with Texas in
allowing banks to act as ex-
ecutors of estates, and sec-
ondly, the bank must have
registered with the Texas
Secretary of State to pro-
vide an agent for service.
