This I Have
By Olga M. Rodriquez
DON’T HESITATE, VACCINATE!
The rabies epidemic in south Texas is for real! Several young children HAVE DIED due to bites from rabid animals. Don’t put off for tomorrow what can be done today. Put this newspaper down right now, pick up your pet and rush to the veterinarian........
Esto Lo Tengo Que Decir Por Olga M. Rodriquez
No Delite Mas,
Vacune Sus Animales!
La epidemia de la rabia en el sur de Texas es real! Varios niños SE HAN MUERTO debido a mordidas de enrabiado. No deje para otro dia lo que pueda hacer hoy. Ponga este periódico a un lado y ahorita mismo vallase con su animalito al veterinario.
Clinica El Miércoles
Ria
Por Favor
Un caballero de nariz descomunal, viendo que se acerca la hora en que se costumbre quitarse los antifaces, dice a la señorita con la que esta bailando: —Antes de que nos quitemos las mascaras, creo oportuno advertirle una cosa; la nariz es mia.
Clinic Wednesday!
In case you just can’t make it sooner, the City of Uvalde is sponsoring a special clinic for pet vaccination at the Civic Center on Wednesday, July 18 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Please, don’t miss this chance!
The School Board Makes A Good Move..
Thanks to Dr. Eddie Little’s idea, the school board rearranged their seating arrangement and is encouraging citizens to attend their meetings. There are so many important decisions being made — items that concern us as parents and as taxpayers— please, make an effort to attend. The meetings are once a month, on the first Tuesday of the month. I hope to see some of you there
ne^t time.
I Hope the additional busing goes t
ough
ol districts
Thanks to the 66th Legislature, sch will now be partially compensated for transporting students, through hazardous areas, although they residojwithirptwo miles from their schools. Our school board is seriously studying the possibility of providing busing to all children, rather than spend time and money on limiting bus students. The expanded busing will probably increase the average daily /attendance— and which in turn, increases the state funds our district so badly needs. This idea would benefit parents and school district.
En caso de que no lo pueda hacer antes, la Cuidad de Uvalde esta patrocinando una clínica especial para la vacunación de perros y gatos en el Centro Civico el miércoles 18 de julio desde las 8 a.m. hasta las 6 p.m. No pierda esta oportunidad.
Directiva Escolar Toma Buen Paso....
Gracias a la idea del Dr. Eddie Little, la directiva escolar hizo un nuevo arreglo en las sillas de la sala de junta para mejor comodida de los cuidadanos que deseen asistir. Esto eS* muy animante. Tantos casos importantisimos se discuten en estas juntas—por fabor— hagan el esfuerzo de asistir. Las juntas son una vez por mes, el primer martes del mes a las 7:30 p.m. Espero ver a algunos de ustedes allí en la próxima junta.
Ojalavque se puedan transportar mas alumnos a la escuela en autobus...
Gracias a la reciente legislatura estatal, los distritos escolares ahora serán recompensados parcialmente por transportar alumnos de areas peligrosas, aunque ellos residan dentro de dos millas de la escuela que les corresponde. Nuestra directiva escolar en su junta el martes pasado escucho un reporte de los administradores que indica seria muy favorable ofrecer transportación a todos los alumnos, sin requerir que vivan mas de dos millas de la escuela. Este servicio de autobus para todos los niños aumentaría la asistencia de los alumnos, y esto en cambio aumentaría el dinero estatal que le corresponde al distrito. Esta idea beneficiaria a los padres de familia y al distrito.
Un septuagenario se hallaba en la esquina de una calle sin atreverse a cruzarla por la enormidad de transito rodado que habia en ella. Después de una larga espera, se impaciento, si bien no se decidió a arriesgarse. De pronto ve a otro anciano, al otro lado de la calle, y le grita: —Eh! Como ha llegado hasta ahi? El otro, poniéndose las manos en la boca a guisa de bocina, le responde: —Yo nací aqui!

Plenty of Gas In Uvalde
UVALDE- A “GAS WATCH ’ and a telephone number for motorists and tourist to call when looking for gas has been established in Uvalde. The telephone number is 278-8057 and is operated 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
over a front page story that recently appeared in the Uvalde Leader News telling of a gas shortage in Uvalde.
includes an advertising campaign in Houston, Corpus ; Christi, and San Antonio.

The idea of a "Gas Watch” for Uvalde was first conceivecf by Leo Tumbarello, owner of the Uvalde Continental Best Western Motel, and
motel and hotel operators became concerned
A survey by Uvalde motel operators where gass is available revealed that 15 locations remain open with gas on Sunday. Out of the 15 locations four are open 24 hours and two sell diesel also.
“Hopefully this program will encourage tourists who had planned
on coming to
Uvalde for vacation but are now unsure because of long lines at big city gas stations, will feel more secure a-bout getting back home,” said.
