Presidio County gets drought relief help
Farmers and ranchers in Presidio and 18 more Texas counties have, been cleared to recdve drought relief under the federal government's Emergency Feed Program. US. Sea Pml Gramm announced.
Also, the AgrlcultureDepart-ment has agreed to open the Emergency Feed Assistance Program in all counties eligible to take pert in the Feed Program. Gramm said.
Counties added to the Feed Program were Bowie. Camp, Cass, Collin, Ddta, Fannin, Franklin, Hopkins. Hunt, Lamar, Morris, Presidio. Rains, Wood. Wilson Upshur. Titus. Rockwall and Red River.
The Feed Program allows USDA to share the cost of buying livestock feed for drought-stricken fanners and ranch-era," Gramm said. The Feed Assistance Program allows farmers to purchase feed grain directly from government stor-SJSSSAP n % m #%S S^S>W^p» ^rtiPSSw^S'^
This brings the number of counties In Texaa eligible for the emergency feed programs to 89," he said.
In addition, a total of 115 counties nave oeen approvea for emergency hay harvesting and grazing on set-aside land and the USDA has dropped its "drought severity formula" and opened Conservation Reserve Program land for haying In those counties.
Counties recently added to the haying and grazing eligibility list are Bastrop. Deaf Smith. Fisher, Mills and Presidio counties.
The department also has agreed to earmark an extra 850 million to buy bulk ground beef in a bid to ease the impact of the drought on cattlemen and has allocated another 840 million to guarantee exports of beef, pork and poultry to Mexico.
The effect of the purchase and export guarantees will be to provide badly needed market assistance to cattle raisers who are being forced to cull thdr herds, prompting depressed cattle prices nationwide." Gramm said.
TSTA leaders blast state career ladder
Thirty-five Texaa State Teachers Association leaders.
' representing most state geographic locations, told members of the State Board of Education that the Texaa Teacher Appraisal System (TTAS) snd the teacher career ladder are not working. . The teacher testimony was presented at two public hearings conducted by the State Board in Austin June 33 and 24. v
TSTA President Charles N. Beard Jr. told members that the current teacher appraisal system has failed to inspire the confidence of teachers, a neceaalty for improving Instruction In Texaa.
He also said that local school boards were "substituting" career ladder bonuses for "across-the-board" raises. causing Texas' national pay
- ranking to fall from 21st to 27th In four years,
"The Texaa Legislature mteTKW that career ladder bonuses be used to reward outstanding teachers, not to keep wages at a sub-fcvd base," Beard said.
The TSTA president also told the board that it should
stop changing the appraisal standards every year.
"Not onry have the state levd standards changed, but most local districts have adjusted the standards yet again through stricter performance criteria, often montha after scores have been awarded." he said. That, coupled with other mathematical games which districts play to keep teachers from qualifying for the career ladder, accounts for teachera' lack of faith In the value of airy appraisal score."
Much of the teachers' testimony complained of the poor quality of appraiser performance. Most recommended additional appraiser training and the monitoring of appraisers through site Add checks.
Other teachers eatd that the current appraisal Instrument stifled creativity in the classroom, recommending that more flexibility be allowed In this area.
AD teachers said that If the career ladder remains In place, the Legislature must act this
to provide full funding, also asked the board to
libit districts from using quotas

Class of '73 recalls 'Year of the Deer' Mar fans among participants
wememm
By Robert Haapern for the Alpine High School Class of 1973
We're now bankers, home-makers, mothers and fathers, telephone company workers, executive secretaries and security guards.
We're businessmen and businesswomen, research technicians, nurses, petroleum engineers, international business^ analysts, Postal Service workers, journalists, teachers and some of us have served in the Armed Forces.
We're the Alpine High .School Class of 1973, and a group of us gathered in the Tine last week for our 15th reunion.
Yeah, it's been 15 years since the Year of the Deer (that's the name we dubbed our yearbook), A decade an one-half ago, the Vietnam War was still two years from ending in disgrace for the United States, and President Nixon was knee-deep in Watergate. The top pop tunes that year were "You're So Vain/ "Superstition," "Love Train," and yes, "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Hound the Old Oak Tree."
The reunion kicked off Friday night with a get together at Kokernot Lodge. We caught up on each others news. We recalled embarrassing high school moments. We remembered the trouble we used to get into. We wondered what happened to Principal Henry Ward. I suspect he's Spuds McKenzie's trainer. And I bummed too many cigarettes from everybody.
I thought we all looked pretty good for being 15 years down life's road since sradua-tion. Sure, some of us had put on a few pounds, others lost weight — and hair — and a few of us have, grown beards and
mustaches, the guys, not the ladies.
Put everyone sounded upbeat and excited about what we all are doing.
We made tentative plans for our 20th reunion. It's to be a formal afiair: tuxes for the L and gowns for the ladies, idea for a toga party was nixed.
We returned to the beautiful grounds of the Lodge Saturday for a barbeque. A light rain fell. And most of us brought our

kids. Seems that the Class of '73 went forth and multiplied. Our offspring all look like winners.
The reunion ended with a dance Saturday night at the Chute, followed by. an early morning breakfast of leftover barbeque.
Maybe the success of the 1973 Fightin' Buck football team was an indication that we could tackle the challenges facing us after graduation.
The Bucks went all the way to the state semifinal playoffs before bowing to a respectable defeat. We tiea Rockwall 20-20, but they won on penetrations. One of the teams to fall to the Bucks that year was our rival the Marfa Shorthorns. We skunked them 49-0.
They say time heals all wounds, and evidently some rivalries, too. At least two classmates married Marfa ladies, and I now have a slew of relatives and friends in Marfa.
Jo Ann Rivera of Marfa is married to Tiburcio "Bucho" Garcia. He works for the Postal Service in Alpine. And Else Ceniceros of Marfa is the wife of Leo Domingues.
Leo, I guess, is our class Yuppie. He's an internatonal business analyst for General Telephone and Electronics at its worldwide headquarters in Stamford, Conn. They live in nearby Danbury. That's on the East Coast. The Domingues's are Yankees. They have three kids — and two Volvos.
Last year, GTE sent Leo and family to the Dominican Republic capital of Santo Domingo where Leo did some telemarketing work and scouting for telephone equipment plants.
About 28 classmates — and their children, spouses and companions — of the 76 graduates stopped by the various events. A majority came from out of town it seemed. We sure missed those who couldn't make it, especially those who still live in Alpine or the area.
Yall missed soma good energy and fellowship. QoodVold. energy is the best kind. I go back with some of my graduating class since before school dsys. It was great to be with yrll again.

prlate to review one of the dubious Joys of parenting; Some babies burp easy, some babies burp hard, some are in the middle, and they all throw upthlsvuesubstancethathas made many new mother think she would have been better off to go Into selling used cars Instead of maternity. One of our pediatric professors stated that a baby waa simply an alimentary canal equipped wltha sound alarm suitable for converting milk into disposable diapers. Burping Is an extra added benefit
In the first place, when It comes up "clabbered", that's good. It means that the baby has gastric acid necessary for the first step of digestion, if this is hard to believe, look up in the hlatoiy book how cottage cheese waa flrstproduced. When a calf was slaughtered for veal, the butcher opened the stomach, scooped out the contents, (remember, this Is a nursing calf), wrapped the mess in muslin and laid it in the atream where the water washed out the foul-tasting stomach acid and left what we now caD cottage cheese (for those of a weakened digestion. It's made a little differently nowadays).
And now for a change of scene. It Is Kansas City. Missouri; the fourth grade of Mfss Friend and World War n ended with V-J Day six weeks ago. In
the midst of a quiet morning lesson the silence Is shattered
Sy an immense belch from orman Wolf: a titter of laugh
ter follows, another belch follows, a large amount of laughter follows, and Miss Friend dismisses us to recess where Norman Wolf holds seminars on how to swallow air and voluntarily belch. Eve-ryone learns how to belch and swallow air before the end of recess and this includes Robert Shore who never quite got things right until the eighth grade. In the fourth grade, he waa always the first to turn in his test papers, invariably with all the answers, wrong. Tnspiteofconsiderable counseling in the philosophy that accuracy was better than speed, he continued to hand In hla papers with almost everything vmuig for the next three years. (He waa fast though.) After lunch, the classroom erupted with belches and utters, belches and Utters, dou-
• ble belches and laughter, and finally, by amazed silence when Robert Shore vomited aO over hla desk and hla shirt and his pants. For some reason, he went home sick that day.
When a young mother asks me when her child will stop burping. I retell this story and reassure her that surely a child win learn to control the bubbles of air in hla stomach by the fifth grade unless he is a whole lot Uke Robert Shore, who after all did turn out all right in the end. He went Into the fast food business where speed is essential and quality is incidental

Marfa Trailblazers take T-ball league title •: Often in sports when the little fiella comes from nowhere to win i t a certain event, the loudest cry k that of, "sometimes the size of the dog in the fight doesn't
always count, but what does, is the fight in the dog."
Taking this into consideration, when the Marfa National Bank Trailblazers won the T-ball
Association championship title on Wednesday night, the name of the team had been changed, so had the team colon, but not the individuals In the unit. For the
last two years in a row, the Winn's Misfits had won the league title, and this year when Winn's could no longer sponsor the team, the Marfa National
Bank took over. They simply took over as the
sponsor, but the same players who had been Misfits, turned to Trailblazers and once again went
The Marfa T-ball Association League Champions- The Marfa National Bank Trailblazers
out and won the title. In winning the title for the third year, two as Misfits, and one as the Blazing batters of the Marfa National Bank, the Trailblazers now have their own slogan. Something like — you can change the team name out of the championship trophy, but you can't take the champion-ship trophy away from the same team.
Not only did the Trailblazers win the title, they did it with a touch of class, winning the championship trophy from another class act in the Corder Lumber Company A's. Going into the season finale on Wednesday night, the A's report card for the season had 6 A-pluses (wins), one A-minus (tie) and one D-plus (loss), but overall they made the National Honor Society (league standings) with flying colors.
In fact had it not been for the valedictorians of the league in the Trailblazers, they would have won the title going away. Still the Blazers had to win Friday night or they would have gotten an incomplete in their report card. A loss would have put both teams in a deadlock for the title at 6 wins • 1 loss and 1 tie, but that was not to be.
Taking on Fowlkes Title in the season finale, the Blazers and the Title team were tied for two innings at 9 runs apiece, but then the coached Glenn Garcia, Cruz Quintana and Eddie Barraza unit started to pull away. In the third inning alone they tallied 9 runs plus followed with offensive productions of 6, 7 and 4 to finally win by a 35 to 24 score.
The Fowlkes unit, a team playing very well lately, held its ground early but then slowly fell farther and farther behind. In the first inning, Fowlkes scored 6 runs followed by 3 in the second

With a little luck, Yankees could have had title hopes With a break here, and a break
there, the Presidio Yankees could still have a shot at the Marfa Teen-Age Baseball'Association -league, title. As they say, a little luck, sometimes is better then skill, but not everybody can have Irish luck.
"At the moment, the Yankees have a season record of 5 wins and 4 losses which is good enough for a tie for second place in the standings behind the current leader, the Presidio
Astros who stand at 9 wins and no losses. Here is the point though, where a little Irish luck could have been better than team talent.
The Astros-a~coupIe pf weeks ago were trailing the St. Mary's Irish 7 to 4 and were one out from falling from the undefeated ranks, when all of a sudden a rain pour put an end to the ballgame, just one out from being considered an official contest. Luck for the Astros — yes, luck for the
Yankees — no. That's not even an end to the
Yankees lack of a lapracon bondage. Just last week, the Yankees had the base loaded and only one out in their last at bat, and trailed the Astros by only one run at 6 to 5. Two outs later, they could not score and were down for the three count.
In the same week, the Astros managed another one run win, this time over the Irish, and again luck was on their side. Three

times an irish Astros — yes, three times an irish Yankees — definitely no. Thus with a little luck the Yankees could be tie with the Astros or just one game behind with one confrontation remaining between the two teams.
Speaking, strickly from whats been present inside the baseball diamond, the Yankees have a team that's in the same league, but the Astros have a winning tradition that is hard to beat, and many times that alone, makes them reach one step higher than most teams, and that is the difference between winning and losing.
With the addition of Ricky Renteria, the Yankees have been a different team, though not always for the better. Renteria by
natural ability is without a doubt, the strongest and best hitter in the league. On Thursday of last week, Renteria clouded a three-run home-run to lead his team to a 19 to 8 victory over the Irish. Overall, Renteria scored 4 runs on three hits to pace the team, but at times seems to want to do too much.
The win gives both the Yankees and the Irish identical records of 5 wins - 4 losses but the Irish have two contests left against the Astros, while the Yankees just one. In the 19 to 8 win, Ernest Ochoa was the winning pitcher, while Fonz Nunez took the loss. Besides Renteria, the Yankees got runs from Abel Gonzalez and David Serrano with three apiece, plus Jacob Renteria, Ochoa and Rene Tarango each had two. Tarango also had a home-run in
the contest. For the Irish, Rico Roman con
tinues to carry a big bat as he once again homered for a two-hit, two run offensive performance. On the night, Roman also had a double to go 2 for 4 in the contest. Besides Roman, the Irish got hits from Nunez and Neil Martinez as Nunez came through with a triple, while Martinez had an RBI single.
The Irish runs came on one in the second, 5 in the third, and 2 in the fourth. Nunez and Martinez each scored two runs to tie Roman for team honors plus Mark Martinez and Oscar Granado each had one.
The association will conclude its regular season, Friday night, when the Yankees take on the Astros, and the Irish will take on the Baker Gems.

Surely George Burns can't be the only honest man around...
For some unknown reason, at least to myself, I received a birthday card last week. The card was a very nice jesture by a friend of many moons ago, but for all the wrong reasons. I liked what the card said — Happy Birthday Buddy — on the front, then you opened it and it said — this Bud's for your
I don't really know how my friend has lived his social life lately, but either he's into some kind of drugs or he is thinking of someone else. At first the birthday card made me think I was once again trying to forget the day I was born on. It would not be the first time, so uncommon it would not be, but considering the circumstances, forgetting and not actually having one are two different things altogether.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who tries to forget he is getting older, but having birthday nowadays, is just like the changing of times. You're born and everybody can't wait till you grow older, then you grow older and everybody wishes you could grow younger. What's the deal here!
It's kind of funny, but everybody whose ever set foot on this earth has gone through a-time when they want to make themselves older, followed by a phase in life when you stop counting correctly so that your age doesn't correspond with the one on your birth certificate.
It's like you get to nine, and you tell everybody you're ten. Still the best age difference is-between eleven and twelve. No matter how much you want to tell me you didn't. I know you did. Tell me it ain't so that you went around telling everybody you were a teenager already when in fact you were still only eleven years old.
It's like if at eleven, everybody considers you a kid still, but at twelve you are considered a young man. I remember wanting to be twelve because I thought I could at that age go on by myself. I'm a man now, mom, I'd tell her and I don't want you kissing me in public, holding my hand to cross the street, tucking me in at night, or treating me like a kid. -
Then I'd get hungry and I ask her :o cook me something to eat and she'd say — you're a man now son, cook it yourself. But mom I'm only eleven, I only tell my friends twelve so they'll respect me more, but you should know my correct age. Still she'd be stuck on that — you're a man now son — till this young man would start crying.
Another big difference in single years is your twenty and twenty-first. It's like you tell every sole you're twenty-one just so you can go places only the big boys are allowed. I tried that once too. I'd go sit at a bar, and in a deep voice, yell, hey bartender give me a beer. The bartender would look at me, stick his hand in the cooler, grab a Root Beer and throw it at me.
Then he'd come over, grab me by the shirt and shake me out of whatever amount he needed. That by the way was the only time I tried it, thinking to myself as I walked out the door, a kid could easily get hurt in a place like this. . '" "
Then comes the after twenty-five syndrome. No matter how the question about your age is directed, you change it everytime. In a job application, you think about writing down a year younger but you change your mind by the thought of getting caught. You meet a girl that's younger, you take some off. Then you meet someone older, you add one on.
Still the one you try to forget the hardest is your thirtieth birthday. Not that I would know how, but surely George Burns is not the only man who gets all the pretty young girls because his honest about his age . . .

Producers to gather for convention Kitchen philosopher by Betty Sparks
Producers may want to gather a little carry for the 73rd annual Texas Sheep and Goat Rsiser's Association (TS&— ORA) convention In San Angdo Jury M-16. TS&ORA has arranged for the Te Department of Agriculture to offer a livestock protection col* lar training and certlflcatton course Wednesday. Jury 13.
The training program is a natural adjunct to convention activities and will begin at 10 a.m. at the San Angelo Research and Extension Center. It was not on TDA's original schedule of courses, but Is being offered because of
- increased Interest In the collar as license users have begun reporting a string of successes against problem coyotes.
Collar developer and manufacturer Roy McBrkteAlplne, win be one of the featured speakers when the TS&GRA convention begins at the Convention Center, addressing the Predatory Animal committee at 1 p.nt Thursday. Jury 14. McBrlde will discuss the collar, its record so far and his recommendation for getting the most out of the device.
State Animal Damage Control program supervisor Don Hawthorne Is also on the Predatory Animal Committee agenda, Hawthorne will provide an update on the ADC program and outline future plans.
The Health & Product Development Committee will meet earlier Thursday, beginning at 10:30 am. Scheduled speakers include Dr. Howard Whit-ford of the Texas Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory, who win discuss ramepl-dldimytis. This disease can severely reduce -lamb crops and yet exist unrecognized In a given herd If enough uninfected rams are present to mask its effects. It has long
been a topic of concern In other areas but Is seldomglven much attention In *~
The TDA la expected to provide a speaker for the Health fit
^Pnxluct^Devdopment Committee to discuss the controversial Issue of animal patents.
TDA has taken a position against patents on living organisms, contenting that livestock producers may someday be forced to pay royalties to
Ktent-holders for natural-m livestock descended from
genetlcaUy-altered seedstock. Thursday's third committer
session will convene at 2:45 p.m when the Natural Resources Committee hears from Texsa Parks AWlldllfe spokesman Wilson Dolman. Dolman win discuss recent land acquisitions by TFflkW as weU as changes In the hunting
sons. Both ofthese topics have their supporters and opponent Yetanothercontroveratal issue is the US. Environmental Protection Agency's proposed plan to limit pesticide use under "endangered spe-~ des" labeling. TDA spokesman EUen Wldess wlfi deal with that subject for the Natural Resources Committee. The EPA plan in Its first Incarnation Included extensive areas where a broad range of common pesticides were to be prohibited to prevent supposed threats to obscure plants and animals. That proposal was delayed In the lace of massive nationwide opposition when it was discovered that protected areas in many cases were expanded beyond any reasonable semblance of need.

A Member el Tht CmMl aad Snath VtaN
is not what anyone could call a reafly large dty. Not even-I who think Shaffer is too much town for me could think so. Therefore, it came as a shock to find myself lost there a few weeks ago.
The shopping maflal Ah. the maQsl They were my downfall)
Even country gins like me enjopy shopping, and when spending time where such tempting dusters of stores teased. I suppose it was not surprising that I yielded. But I certainly never Intended to stray.
It all began innocently enough when we completed our work one day and three of the other teachers working on curriculum development Invited me to go shopping.
So off we went to Walmart After a half-hour I had finished as had one of the others. While waiting on the other two who were not even near the checkout counters, I said. "I think IH walk on down to Sears since it's at the other end of the malLM '*•
"Fine," replied the girl in whose car we had come."but don't bother to walk back here: well Just meet you there."
BUssfuQy Ignorant of the fact that Sears was not where I thought off I went When I found It is located Instead at the end of the next mail I strode on across the block separating the two malls to my destination. After all It was Sears where the others were to meet me.
When I had completed my shopping there, I came outside ana could see no sign of my friends. Actually. I wasn't sure what kind of car we had come la but knowing them to be reliable. I calmly seated myself on the sidewalk and waited, and waited and waited.
After reading every word In The Dallas Morning News purchased from a nearby vending machine and working the crossword puzzle as well. I began to realize something was amiss.
It then occurred to me that the others were probably searching high and low for me at the end of the first shopping malL Solnotsosprylywalked back but could find no sign of my friends at that store. (It waa Montgomery Ward.) So with feet even less fleet I made my way back to the second mall and resumed my wait on the sidewalk outside Sears, where I waited until 8:45 p jn.
Knowing that the malls dosed at 9s00 and that my friends might have returned to the motel by this time, I decided to call there.
What I didn't learn until later was the length and breadth they had gone to in thdr three-hour search for me before they returned to the motd in hopes that I might have gone back there.
Fearing that I might have become ul (or perhaps wandered off into senile dementia), they had searched frantically at Sears and Ward's and in both malls. They even had each place page me over the public-address system. One mall security officer hesitated before agreeing to page me on the grounds that ltwas not the usual policy to page anyone over age 12. He onry gave in when he teamed that I waa a special education teacher! ,
Not getting any answer from the room I called, I became even more frantically worried about my friends until the motd desk derk broke In and assured me that they had been looking for me but had indeed returned to the motd. .
They were, I found out later, In the bar bolstering their courage before notifying the police I w o missing and having an "APB" put out oh me. When the desk derk found them and told them I had called in and waa safe, she immediately had the bartender aerve them a round on the house to calm them down after aedng how upset they
who lives near the malls, and that he had come and picked me up and returned me to the motd after we had a nice long visit my friends began hurling
recriminating words at me Including, "You don't know how worried we wereF and "Well never take you anywhere again!"
Bentsen calls for closer U.S. Customs cooperation
During the evening hours oi February 9, VS. Customs officials detected an airplane in the northern Bahamas dropping what appeared to be narcotics into the water.
In tracking this airplane, Customs and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) cot into a squabble over who should be taking what action. Because of that squabble, a speedboat picked up the contraband and slipped through the net into our country.
Upon learning of this snafu the ILS. Ambassador to the Bahamas' fired off a cable of protest to Customs and DEA Tlie situation that arose in this pursuit is an example of poor cooperation and coordination." the Ambassador said.
"I couldn't agree more." US. Sen. Lloyd Bentsen said.
This is Just one example of theJact of coordination - and the turf batties that have erupted - between U.S. agencies involved in this far-flung war on drugs.
JSome problems, such as the use of different agency radio
-frequencies in Joint operations, have been resolved suc-cessfully. But major {urisdlctlonal disputes have
iroken out indudlng fundamental dlsagreementbetween the Coast Guard and Customs over interdiction responsibilities arid between the FBI and DEA over enforcement of our federal drug laws.
"Note that our country will spend nearly 83 billion next year to fight drugs," Bentsen said. "Since 1981. the federal drug effort has been one of the fastest growing in history, rising more thano60% from 81.1 billion.
"But despite these expenditures and the efforts of many dedicated local, state .and fed- • eral drug-enforcement off!-; dais, we're losing that war.
"Part of the reason." he said, "is that the effort,is spread over eight Cabinet-level departments - from the Justice Department to the Agriculture Department - and 26 agencies. Indudlng the CIA They all report to the National Drug Policy Board, which has those eight Cabinet officers as members and the Attorney General as chairman.
"But all of them do this part-time because they have full-time duties elsewhere. Everybody Is in charge, yet no one is in charge," said the senator.
'We need a full-time professional to coordinate enforcement of federal drug laws, and I am drafting legislation to create such a position - a drug czar.
"Let's put an end to bureaucratic squabbling and drug boats that speed through Jurisdictional disputes.
"Let's get on with the challenge of winning this war on drugs. A drug czar would hdp us do that ." Bentsen conduded.
