Public Notice
Southwestern Bell Telephone Company
(“Southwestern Bell”) submitted an application on
January 4,1991 to the Public Utility Commission of Texas
("Commission") requesting that the central office-based
PBX/type service market be declared subject to significant
competition pursuant to the Commission’s Substantive
Rule §23.27. If this proposal is approved, Southwestern
Bell intends to provide service to this market segment via
its PLEXAR-Custom service, which provides for contractual
rates and charges to be based on an individual customer-
specific basis.
PLEXAR-Custom is a central office-based service
which provides switched voice and/or data communications
similar to a customer-premises PBX. PLEXAR-Custom
service is currently being provided on an individual
customer-specific basis via Southwestern Bell'S Customer
Specific Pricing Ran Tariff for central office-based
telecommunications systems of 200 stations or more.
If Southwestern Bell’s application is approved, the
PLEXAR-Custom service tariff will be revised to also
include central office-based telecommunications systems
which require between 75 and 200 stations.
Centrex and Plexar-ll services are currently priced
according to a standard tariff regardless of the customer’s
geographic location in the state. If this application is
approved, customers needing 75 to 200 stations will be
able to obtain this service priced on an individual customer-
specific basis rather than under a standard tariffed rate.
Southwestern Bell’s application proposes that the
service market for PBX/type systems of 75 stations up to
200 stations be declared subject to significant competition
statewide in all of the exchange areas served by Southwestern
Belt and in which the central office capability to provide the
service exists and/or can readily be made available.
Persons who wish to intervene, protest, or comment
on this application should notify the Public Utility
Commission of Texas by June 21,1991 at 7800 Shoal Creek
Boulevard, Suite 400N. Austin, Texas 78757. You may also
call the Commission's Public Information Office at (512)
458-0256, or (512) 458-0221, teletypewriter for the deaf.
Please refer to this matter in all correspondence as
Docket No. 9960.

MERIDIAN — An invitation to lead
the pledges of allegiance to the Unit-
ed States and Texas flags at a Com
missioners' Court meeting was the
result of a recent letter from two fifth
grade students to County Judge Er
nest W. Reinke, Jr.
Johnathan Higgins and Jared Jack-
son, who attend Walnut Springs
Elementary School, wrote Judge
Reinke on Jan. 28:
“In 1989, when we were in the third
grade at Walnut Springs Elementary
School, we started saying the pledge
of allegiance to the Texas flag every
day at school. In 1991, our whole
elementary school started saying the
Texas pledge every day at school.
“The week of March 3-9 is Texas In-
dependence Week. We think it would
be a very good idea during this week
if all schools in Bosque County said
the pledge of allegiance to the Texas
flag. This is if they already say the
United States pledge of allegiance ev-
ery day, too.
“We think it is very important to
have kids our age honor the Texas
flag and grow up to respect the flag
and what it stands for. We are Tex
ans and proud of it!!!
“Thank you for your support and
help in this matter.”
Judge Reinke invited the two Wal-
nut Springs youths to the March 11
Commissioners' Court meeting at the
county courthouse. After he had in

McGlothlin s bond at $50,000. After
initial confinement at Bosque County
Jail, McGlothlin was transferred to
"omanche County Jail in Comanche.
Besides acting on the vacant chiefs
post at the March 11 meeting, the
Council unanimously agreed to take
art in a proposed countywide eco-
nomic development study. Bruce
Gaines, executive director of the Cen-
tral Texas Economic Development
District, made a presentation on the
subject at the session
Gaines also presented the proposal
at the March 11 meeting of Bosque
County Commissioners' Court and
the March 12 meeting of the Clifton
City Council. Under the plan, the ci
ties of Meridian and Clifton will join
Bosque County in paying shares of
the estimated cost of $50,000 for the
study-

dents led those present in pledges to
