We, the undersigned residential taxpaying owners of
real property of Calhoun County, Texas, adjacent to and served
by Alcoa Drive of the city of Port Lavaca, Texas, and its ex-
tension along the County Road, called the "Chocolate Loop Road"
to the South between the Maximo Sanchez League and the Samuel
Shupe League, hereby respectfully petition your Honorable Body
for the removal of the fence which blbcks public access to and
from the one acre public park on Flounder Point, that the brush
be removed from the original public right of way, that the road
down to the park be regraded and improved and tbat the park,
within its boundaries as shown by the map and plat of the Port
Lavaca Development Company's Subdivision of the Maximo Sanchez
and Samuel Shupe Leagues, which has suffered serious erosion by
tropical hurricanes since its dedication, be included within
the seawall program of Precinct No. 1 for protection and improve-
ment by the construction of necessary breakwaters and an adequate
boat launching ramp in order that the public may have proper and
adequate access to the waters of Chocolate Bay.
I
I
The opening of this access road and the improvement of
this public park would be in general public interest and benefit,
as it is the only County Park adjacent to the City of Port Lavaca,
it would provide a suitable safe camp area for our Boy and Girl
Scouts as on the east it has a sand bottom and a fine beach. It
is adjacent to a shell reef which provides excellent fishing, with
deeper water to the 'south west for boating and sailing.
Respectfully submitted,

APPROVE PETITION FOR OPENING PUBLIC ROAD TO PARK
Mr. J. D. Sandlin appeared before the Court in behalf of the
petitioners who desire access established to the park area on the
North shore of Chocolate Bay at the terminus of Alcoa Drive, and
read the following report from the County Surveyor, Mr. Charles W.
Hodges:
I
In regard to an area on the North shore of Chocolate
Bay originally containing about 4 acres of land at the Bay
shore terminus of a; platted roadway, now known as Alcoa
Drive, please be advised that the undersigned has made a
careful examination of the Plat of the Port Lavaca Develop-
ment Plat Records which bears the notation':"Subdivided and
Drawn by Hill, Kelly and Thayer, Architects, Engineers and
Surveyors, Sept. l893." I find that this Plat shows an area
approximating 4 acres of land by scaling, on the North shore
of Chocolate Bay at the Bay shore terminus of a platted,road~
way, now identified on most modern maps as Alcoa Drive. Said
area is marked "RESERVED" on the recorded Plat.
Recent surveys show that erosion has claimed a large
part of this area but there remains some one and one-half
to two acres of land not covered by water of the original
area "RESERVED". This area is surrounded by lands owned
by the Willett Wilson Estate and the roadway leading to
the "RESERVED" area is blocked by a fence.
sf CHARLES W. HODGES
After discussion of the problems involved in opening the road
and improving the park area, Commissioner Wedig made a motion that
the following Order be adopted:'
I
That the 'Court approves ,and accepts the petition to open said
roadway, which petition was presented on September 12, 1960, and is
recorded in Volume L, Pages 31 - 32 of the Commissioners Court Minutes;
.;
That the County Attorney notify Mr. ,Willet Wilson that he has
thirty (30) days in which,: to remove his fence from the road right of
way which is now blocking access to the park area; and,
That if the obstruction is not removed within the specified time,
the Court will proceed to 'remove ,the 'said,obstrucEion. ..
It is so ordered this, the lOth day of October, 1960.
Motion seconded by Commissioner Radtke, and unanimously carried.

WHEREAS, on this the lOth day of October, A.D. 1960, came on for

with a quorum being present and at a regular meeting of said Court,
at the Courthouse in Port Lavaca, Texas, the following item of
business, to-wit:
Commissioner Frank Wedig presented to the Court, a proposed right

right of way easement for public road purposes the following described
land and premises located within Calhoun County, Texas, to-wit:
/
'64',
Being in the 'Samuel Shupe Survey; Calhoun County, Texas, 'and
more fully described as follows:
Beginning at a stake 'set' at th~ northwest ~orri~r~f Tract
No. 16 of Block No. 1 of W. Peikert Subdivision, Samuel Shupe Survey,
in Calhoun County, Texas, as per plat of record in Vol. Z, page 125,
Calhoun County Plat Records;
Thence north 45 deg. west a distance of 300 feet to a"stake

Ground Countywide activities, and that for the safety and protec-
tion of the general public, the use of said accepted public road
right of way should be restricted ,until such time:as the 'grantors.
of the easement should cease to use said easement for the taxiing
of aircraft.
Now therefore, upon motion ,made by Commissioner Frank Wedig, and,
seconded by Commissioner Ernest Radtke and unanimously carried, the
said grantors in said easement are hereby granted the right to build,

subject to temporary removal upon the request of the Sheriff Depart-
ment of Calhqun County, Texas, and ~ich limitationsqall ~ontinue
to exist until such time as 'the, grantors in said easement:'shall cease
to use said easement for airplane taxiing purposes.

such right of way so as not to impede the passage of taxiing planes,
and keep the same in a smooth condition.

ing by the County Judge and Attested by the County Clerk of Calhoun

APPROVE STATE AFFILIATED HEALTH UNIT
Dr. S. W. Lester and Mr. Clayton Toalson appeared before the
Court to discuss the possibility of establishing a State affiliated
Public Health Unit in Calhoun County.
Dr. Lester said that all the ,doctors he had talked 'to were in
favor of such a unit; that a much broader program for Public Health
could be had at a lesser,cost than would be possible for a County
Health Unit to provide.
, Mr. Toalson mentioned the reduced cost of certain'medications I
and the fact that a State Health Board doctor would be on call to
the local unit. He said that the approval of the Court would be
necessary before they could apply to establish such a unit, but
that the establishment of the unit would havt to be granted by the
State. He stated that they hope to be included in the State's
program of new units, and with the Court's approval, they would
be able to make application.

ENGINEERS RECOMMENDATIONS ON'SEAWALL-PROJECTS

"'-
Gentlemen:
We have reviewed the bids received by the Court on October 12, I
1960, for construction of shore protection facilit'ies at six loca-
tions in Calhoun County. We found that the extensions of the three
low bidders were correct, that there were no qualifying statements
attached with the bids, and that the bids were accomp~nied by the
required 5% Bidders Bond.
The low bid of $594,835 was submitted by the Claude Everett
Construction Company of Houston. We have previously checked the
financial responsibility and experience record o~ this contractor in
connection with other projects in Calhoun and 'Victoria County. We
I
--!

have also inspected the methods and workmanship used by this contractor
on other projects totaling approximately $560,000. Based upon our
pre~ious checks, and our personal knowledge of the contractor, it is
our opinion that he is adequately qualified to perform the work.
Therefore, we recommend award of the Contract for the shore protection
work to the low bidder, the Claude Everett Construction Company of
Houston.
However, as the Court knows, the low bid of $594,835 exceeds the
allocated funds which total $561,000. This situation was anticipated
and the bids were received on a unit price basis to permit adjust-
ment of the Contract price as necessary.
It is our recommendation that adjustments to the bid prices be
made as follows:
1. Seadrift -Port O'Connor
Bid Price
Allocated Funds
Required Reduction
$375,355
354,000
$21,355
In order to provide sufficient funds for the above $21,555., plus
contingencies and engineering expenses, it is suggested that the
contract price be reduced by a total of $44,500. This will afford a
contingency and engineering fund of $23,000. Near the completion of
the project, such amounts of the contingency and engineering fund
which have not been used may be re-incorporated into the work by
adding protection at the unit bid prices.
It is suggested that the above $44,500. reduction be affected by:
a. Modification to and reduction of number of stairs through
the protection wall.
b. Deletion of the cement stabilized shell-sand blanket on the
ground surface at the wall.
These suggestions will not reduce the degree of protection,
however, they may result in somewhat higher maintenance costs.
2. Point Comfort - Olivia
Bid Price
Allocation
Required Reduction
$190,904
177 ,000
$ 13,904
It is suggested that the above amount be increased to $30,000
to allow for contingencies and engineering costs. This will provide
a contingency and engineering fund of about $16,000 of which the
unused portion may be re-incorporated into the project to provide
additional facilities. ..
It is suggested that the $30,000 reduction be accomplished
as follows:
a. Modify the design of stairs through the protection wall.
b. Delete the concrete slope-plating of the bluff bank across
the school site.
d. Delete the sand-shell protection blanket on the ground sur-
face behind the wall on the school site.
/12
TheSe suggestions will 'not reduce the degree of erosion pro-
tection, nor will they subtract any of the desired facilities at
the Point Comfort City Park.
3. SiX Mile
No changes are necessary at Six Mile Park since the bid of
$28,576 is less than the allocation of $30,000.
The above may be summarized as follows: I
SUGGESTED NEW CONTRACT
LOCATION BID REDUCTION PRICE
1. Sea drift'; Port O'COnnor $375,355 $44,500 $330,855
2. Point Comfort-Olivia 190,904 29,,908 160,996
3. Six Mile Park 28.576 NONE 28,576
TOTALS $594,835 $74,408 $520,627
After the Court has had an opportunity to consider these sugges-
tions and offer comments of its own, we will issue Notice of Award
to the successful bidder to whom the 'work is awarded and will assist
the Court prepare the engineering portio~s of the Construction Contracr.

Mrs. Dolezal spoke for the group.
Mrs'. Dolezal said they were there to ask for some relief in the
job of holding elections; that it is almost impossible to get capable 'I
workers for $1.00 per hour for such a difficult job; that the hours
which must be worked in order to conduct and make returns on an
election are a hardship few people can assume.
The County Judge told the ladies that it is not now permissible
to pay more than $1.00 per hour, and that any change in the wages of
election judges would have to be made by the Legislature. He said
that he would write Mr. Dick Cory and ask him to do what he can
toward effecting an increase in the hourly rate for election workers.

Below is an estimate of the cost of lowering and casing
these lines:
We are prepared to do this work upon receiving assurance
from you that we will be reimbursed for the cost of same.
It is estimated that the work can be completed in two

Attention: Mr. F. A. Dugat
Dear Mr. Dugat:
Confirming our telephone conversation on Monday,
November 21, 1960, the City of Point Comfort and Calhoun
County accept the responsibility for the expenses'incurred
in lowering and casing the two existing pipe lines owned
by Somico which cross Highway 35 just west of the P.C. & N.
railroad tracks within Point Comfort City limits. It was
further,agreed during'our conversation thatSomico would
provide the labor and equipment necessary for the lowering
of the City of Point Comfort's 8" water line in addition
to the two lines owned by Somico and would invoice the
City of Point Comfort for the actual expenses incurred on
this project, which should be approximately $1100.00. It
was further agreed that the City of Point Comfort would
provide the casing material for all three lines and that
such material will be moved from its present location to
the job site by Somico.
I
It was pointed out by Mr. W. A. King, Senior Resident
Engineer with the ,State HighwaY,Department, that this work
be completed by December 15, 1960 and that this date was
agreed to by the City of Point Comfort" :,
90
The City of Point Comfort certainly appreciates
Somico's cooperation in removing the obstruction ,from
the Highway 35 right-of-way, and if there is any waY,we
may be of assistance, please let us know.

POINT COMFORT, TEXAS
November 22, 1960
Commissioner Ernest H. Radtke
Calhoun County Courthouse
Port Lavaca, Texas
Dear Mr. Radtke:
The State Highway Department has requested that the City
of Point Comfort and Calhoun County comply with the terms of
the agreement dated in 1954 providing that the State of Texas
be furnished an obstruction free right-of-way for the proposed
Highway 35 improvement project by December 15, 1960.
To comply with the terms of this agreement it will be
necessary to lower and case two 6" lines owned by Somico and
one 8" line owned by the City of Point Comfort that are
located in the right-of-way. Also, it will be necessary to
remove five 40' poles and a length of cable that is no longer
in service, which is owned by the City of Point Comfort.
I
The Houston Natural Gas Company has completed the
lowering and casing of their 2" line located in the right-of-
way and, ,to the best of my knowledge, they will ,absorb the
cost of this work.
The extensive street repair program presently in progress
in the City of Point Comfort has strained our budget to a point
that for all practical purposes there are no current funds

From such point, the pipe line will proceed in a northerly
direction along the west right of way line of said County Road, a
distance of approximately 1320 feet to an intersection ~tth the
County line between Jackson County and Calhoun County.
In consideration of the authority granted to the Southeastern
Pipeline Company by the County of Calhoun, Texas, to so construct,
lay and maintain the pipe line across the above described roads and
along the same as above provided, the said Southeastern Pipeline
Company hereby agrees as follows:
1. It will install pipe line so that the top of the line will
be at the minimum depth of 36 inches below the flow line of the
ditches on either side of the road.
2. It will employ a competent person or persons to do such
installation and complete same in accordance with the covenants
herein set forth.
3. It will use all proper caution in performing the work to
prevent injury to all persons and property and it will indemni~y
Calhoun County, Texas, against all damages that may be assessed
against it by reason of the negligent performance of any work here
permitted and the maintenance of such pipe line.
4. It will replace the road as nearly as possible in the same
condition as it was before the pipe line operations began by refill-
ing the excavation until the surface of the land has settled uniform-
ly with the surface to the adjoining lands. It will notify the County
Commissioner of that precinct upon completion of this work so that
he may make such inspection as he deems necessary and it will comply
with any reasonable requirements that he may make in the placing of
the surface of the road to its original condition.
5. In the event Calhoun County, Texas, the State Highway
Department or any other municipality, then constructing, reconstruct-
ing, maintaining and operating said public road should in the orderly
course of its operation of said roads deem it advisable to relocate
said pipe line or to have the same removed to another .part of said
road, then the Southeastern Pipeline Company, covenants and
obligates itself to remove and relocate said pipe lines at its own
expense. If upon giving thirty (30) days notice in writing to the
Southeastern Pipeline Company, at its offices in Houston, Texas, to
remove or relocate said pipe lines by any,of the above mentioned

itures in excess of budget appropriations for the year 1960.
INDIGENT

112

deficiencies in items under certain Gen. and R&B accounts. ,Order to
be prepared by County Ausitor. Motion carried unanimously.
Katie Guidry - charge overage to over all surplus rather than
ending balance in Salary Fund.
I
REQUEST POSTPONE PLANNING & ACTION ON BRIDGE - GUADALUPE
Representative R. H. Cory requested postponement of planning
and action on bridge (Cap May) over Guadalupe River between Refugio
and Calhoun Counties.
ORDER ON EXCESS EXPENDITURES
The Commissioners Court convened in special session at 10 a.m. on
December 19, 1960, to review the budget appropriations which have been,
or will be, exceeded by the end of December, 1960. The County Auditor
explained the circumstances relevant to each situation, whereupon
Commissioner Radtke made a motion, which was seconded by Commissioner
Barton and unanimously carried, that the following actIons be approved:
1). Since the actual cash position of each of the various road
and bridge funds is better than anticipated in the 1960 budget and
because surpluses exist in other appropriations of these funds, that I
additional expenditures be allowed and the closing balances reduced
as same appears below:
a) . Road and Bridge General
Accounts #14 & 38 over $ 177.92
b) . Road and Bridge Precinct 1
Accounts #3,21,30,56,57 & 60 over 1,064.16
. c) . Road and Bridge Precinct 2
Accounts #14,28 & 60 over 2,303.44
d) . Road and Bridge Precinct 3
Accounts #12,14,18,28,31,55 & 56 over 2,882.72
e) . Road and Bridge Precinct 4
Accounts #14 & 30 over 118.22
2). Since the same situation prevails in the Jury, General and
Permanent Improvement funds, that additional expenditures be allowed
and the closing budget balances be reduced as follows:
a). Jury (Accounts #38,66 & 71 over)
b). General (Accounts #3105,3210,3214,3314,
3438,3806,3807,3814,3951 & 3952 over)
c) . Permanent Improvement(Account 114538 over)
$ 278.75
5 ,44L 92
10.00
I
3). That the total of each of the Salary Fund department budgets
remain as presently approved, but that ,additional expenditures be
allowed for various appropriation accounts, provided that the over-all
departmental totals are not exceeded.
1.13
4). That the total authorized expenditures in the road
maintenance and sinking funds are much more that the actual expend-
itures and since the only excess expenditure in any of these funds
is for valuation engineer fees (code #38), a relatively small
expense, that these funds be allowed to remain as is.
It is so ordered.

Mr. Bill Henslee of the Calhoun-Victoria County Soil Conservation
Service appeared before the Court and submitted recommendations on a
proposed engineering criteria for Drainage District No. 11.
Mr. Henslee made a most informative talk pointing out to the
Court the value of, and reasons for making each of the recommendations.
Whereupon, Commissioner Wedig made a motion that the recommenda-
tions for the engineering criteria be adopted and recorded. The
motion was seconded by Commissioner Kabela, and unanimously carried.
The recommendations are as follows:
PROPOSED CRITERIA FOR DRAINAGE DISTRICT #11 ENGINEER
1. The drainage system shall be designed based on the most
intensive land use that the land can be put to in accordance with its
capabilities.
2. Lateral ditches shall be carried to the property line of the
last woner in each sub-watershed and continue to the point where only
100 acres remain to be drained if such owner has more than 200 acres.
3. All existing fences shall be replaced with swinging water
gates designed in accordance with SCS Drawing No. 4-8-14,950.
4. Stabilizing structures shall be provided at all lateral
intrances into mains where the difference. in. depth ex~eeds 2 feet.
5.
throught
included
Drainage water from fields adjacent to mains shall
stabilized entrances, the cost of these structures
in the preliminary cost estimate.
enter
to be
6. Private crossings on existing ditches shall be replaced
with the same type of structure, such as grade crossings shall be
replaced with grade crossings - either culvert or bridge, the
choice based on cost to the district - low water crossings to be
replaced with low water crossings designed in accordance with SCS
Drawing "Low Water Crossing for Drain Ditch". Where a new ditch
isolates a farm or a portion of a farm, a low water crossing shall
be provided when easy access to the land is not available from a
public road.
7. The minimum design for agricultural drainage purposes shall
be based on criteria contained in the National Engineering Handbook
Section 16 of the Soil Conservation Service.
8. Bridges on county roads shall be designed for H-20 loading-
2 lane width 18' - 1 lane with 14'. . Bridges on private roads shall
be designed for H-15 loading with 1 lane width 12'. The engineer
shall consult the commissioners court for each bridge on county roads.
9. All spoil shall be spread so that, the spoil area can be
farmed with 4 row equipment, the inside slope to be continuous with
ditch slope, have a maximum depth of 3 feet above normal ground, top
of spoil to be shaped so that water falling on the spoil will drain
away from the ditch on a slope not steeper than 10:1.
10. The Preliminary Report shall contain recommendations from
the Engineer on the following three items:
116
a. A suggested proration between Victoria Drainage DEtrict #2
and Calhoun Drainage District #11 of the cost of improving the main
ditch on Big .Chocolate from the county line to Chocolate Bay, such
proration to be based on quantities of water, acres drained, legal
responsibilities, etc.
b. A determination of the true natrualwatershed for the area
of land in Victoria County Drainage District #2 which lies just above
the county line on the west side of State Hwy. 87 and which area now
drains into the highway ditch and down against land lying in Calhoun I
County, and a recommendation for the most feasible and practical .
method of taking care of this runoff, taking into consideration the
topography, legal responsibilities, costs,etc.
c. An an?lysis of the problems which exists in Victoria County
Drainage District #3 just above the county line on the east side of
State Hwy. 87, to include a recommendation for .handlmng this runoff,
taking into consideration the topograp~y, legal responsibilities, etc.
11. The preliminary report and cost estimate shall include an
estimate of the costs of procuring right-of-way based on $ per
acre for easements of sufficient width to cover top witath~ditches
plus 15 feet on each side, plus permission to dispose of spoil.
12. Due to soil characteristics the ditch side slopes shall not
be steeper than 2:1. For ease of maintenance it is recommended that
slopes be 4:1 Where conditions permit.

will increase the efficiency of the obstetrics area and treatment
rooms and provide fora recovery room.

ARCHITECT REPORTS ON LIBRARY PLANS
Mr. Foy Martin, of Rustay & Martin, Architects, of Houston, met
with the Court to present revised plans for the Library Building.
Members of the Calhoun County Library Association present to
hear the report were:
Mr. Dick Reavis; Mr. Bill Shepard; Mrs. Leland Williams;
Mrs. W. L. Massey; Mrs. Roy Johnson; Mrs. J. M. Phillips;
and Mr. John Vail.
Mr. Martin presented a drawing of the proposed exterior of the
building and explained that the new wing would be built adjoining
the old building upon the existing adjacent concrete slab. The
new wing to house the Library, with the old building to serve as
a Museum.
The new wing will be an 8" concrete block structure, and will
be finished to match, as nearly as possible; the old bui'lding.
Mr. Martin said the whole building would emerge as a harmonious
design.
The blue prints were passed around for examination by those
present, and Mr. Martin explained that the interior walls could be
finished in either wood or sheetrock; that the ceiling would be a
suspended acoustical ceiling; and the lights would be fixtures
similar to those in the Commissioners Courtroom, and placed across
the ceiling. The plans include a five ton air conditioning unit
with the compressor housed outside the building.
Mr. Martin said there was 2500 square feet of building to be
air conditioned, and that he would secure figures on the cost of a
seven ton unit. Mrs. Williams asked Mr. Martin if the unit would
be both heating and cooling unit, and he told her that it would be.
In answer to another question, Mr. Martmn said that these
plans provided for a work counter with a wash basin, and some
book stacks. He said the floors could be finished in asphalt tile,
but that other coverings would increase the cost.
In clos&ng; Mr. Martin told the Court that these revised plans
c~ould be done, according to their, estimate, for the $24,000;00
budgeted for the project, but that it would not be a first class
building; that they would not recommend building.. on :the present, slab;
<Ind that the building would probably entail a continuous maintenance
problem.

MOTOR GRADER FOR PRECINCT NO. 3
On this, the 17th day of February, 1961, at a regular term of
the Commissioners Court, with all members of the Court present,and
the County Judge presiding, there came for consideration the matter
of an Allis-Chalmers motor grader for Precinct No.3.
The bid of AndersonMBchinery Company of Corpus Christi, Texas,
had been accepted as the lowest bid of those bids submitted on
Monday, February 13, 1961, and recorded in tabulation on page 141 I
of this volume of the Commissioners Court Minutes.
An Allis-Chalmers motor grader was delivered to Precinct No. 3
at dark on the evening of February 15th, and unloaded at the ware-
house. Upon inspection of the machine early the morning of
February 16, the machine was found to be a used machine with certain
parts worn and others damaged. The tires had been damaged and
reversed, the battery was stamped with a date four months earlier,
the blades were necked, and the machine had been given a hurried
paint job. Commissioner Lindsey refused to accept the machine.

Commissioner Lindsey asked that the other commissioners meet
with him at his warehouse and inspect the vehicle. This was done on
the afternoon of February 15th.
At 10 a.m. this morning, the Court met in their regular meeting
place and present for the hearing were: Mr. H. E. Barnett and
Mr. Hudson Anderson, of Anderson Machinery Company of Corpus Christi;
and Mr. Gene Medcaff, of Allis-Chalmers of Dallas, Texas.
Judge Hartzog told the men that Commissioner Lindsey was not
happy with the machine delivered him; that it was obvious that the
machine was not a new machine; and, that Commissioner Lindsey would
not accept it.
Mr. Anderson said that they certainly did not want him to have
a machine that he did not want, and that they would send a new
machine down. He said that they had two new machines coming within
a few days.
Mr. Medcaff, of Allis-Chalmers, then told the Court that their
stock was in San Antonio, and that they tried to keep their inven-
tories moving, and that they transferred stock from one place to
another as needed in order to keep inventories of current models;
that the machine in question could not have been more than 60 to 90
days in stock; that it was a new machine which had never been sold.
When reminded of the condition of the machine, Mr. Medcaff said
that he would not have accepted the machine either, and that he could
order a new machine from San Antonio with only a 4 or 5 day delay.
Judge Hartzog said that the machine ,looked as if it had been
used; that it looked shopworn, and had been repainted. Mr. Barnett
then said that he had repainted the machine himself.
Judge Hartzog asked if the machine could have been used as a
demonstrator at one of, the palces it had. been. Mr. ,Medcaff said that
it could have been; that they had,no control over that; ,but that the
machine had never been sold before.
The Judge then asked if the bid should be refused. He said that
a customer is not happy when he thinks he is buying a new ,machine
and is delivered one in such a condition as this machine.
Mr. Medcaff then said that they certainly wanted Mr. Lindsey to
have a machine which he could have confidence in; ,that Allis-Chalmers
have always stood behind their machines.
The Judge said that the Court certainly wanted Commissioner
Lindsey to be satisfied with the machine he would use before they
would accept delivery; that this machine was defin~tely not satis-
factory to him.
The gentlemen were then asked to step into the waiting room
while the Court considered the matter.
When the men returned to the courtroom, Judge Hartzog told them
that after conferring on the matter, in fairness to Commissioner
Lindsey and to them, Commissioner Lindsey would look at their machines
at their office in San Antonio.
Mr. Medcaff said that he would prefer to have the truck bring
the machines down directly from the factory; that they now had on
order two new machines from the factory, and that they would be
down here about Wednesday, the 22nd of February; that they would be
taken directly to the warehouse in Precinct No.3; and, that if
Commissioner Lindsey was not satisfied with either of them, he would
be under no obligation to accept one of them.

POSTPONE ACCEPTING BID ON LIBRARY-MUSEUM
The Court met at 10:00 A.M. this 16th day of March, 1961, to
discuss various problems I ,which have arisen as',a result.ofthe call
for dist to' construct'. a Library-'Museum." : " .. '.' : "
",
"
One of the problems'being that the low bid exceeded the'amount
of funds appropriated for such construction; and, ' '
Another problem being the protest of the High Bidder, ,who felt
that,since he had submitted ,a: Cashier's Check with his bid, and, the
Low Bidder had submitted a Bid Bond with his bid, the bid of the
High Bidder came')closer to conforming to the requirements specified
for bidding.
The COunty Attorney, upon a previous request by the Court, had
submitted his opinion that the matter of cashier's Check, as opposed
to Bid Bond"was a matter of 'formality; and, that since the COurt
always reserves unto itself the right to waive formalities, and.to
reject any,orall bids, the formality could be waived; and, that
the County could accept the low bid.

The following letter was addressed and sent to the above petitioners
individually and by family:
April 18, 1961
Dear
I
Your recent petition as jointly addressed to the
Commissioners, the County Attorney, the Sheriff, and myself
in request for all necessary action to prevent livestock from
running at large in the Indianola area has been duly presented.
I know that you will be pleased to know that.action to
protect your property can be immediately had under the provisions
of two laws:
First, in November, 1930, a County-wide election adopted the
provisions of Article 1370 of the Criminal Code, and made it
unlawful for certain livestock to run at large in Calhoun County
outside of our incorporated cities. This law has been success-
fully tested numerous times in our courts in the past.
Second, in 1959, effective:;July 1, 1960, Article No. l370a
was enacted prohibiting livestock to run at large on fenced or
unfenced rights of way of all State Highways except Farm-to-
Market roads. In your .area you have State Highway No. 316, which
terminates just below laSalle's Monument.
The jurisdiction of all such cases are in the Justice
Courts, as the maximum fine is limited to $200.00. Appeals
are made direct to the County Court by trial de novo. Each
day is a seaprate violation.
I
I am certain that all of your law enforcement officials
will act promptly upon your complaint. They must be supplied
with all possible accurate information in order to determine
whether or not the evidence will sustain a conviction because
the law, like all criminal laws, refers to a willful violation.
Owners of livestock have a valuable investment; they are
likewise responsible for damages to property. Most owners are
glad to receive woro that their cattle are out of their pasture
so that they can round them up. You should have no difficulty
in identifying the branded stocks. A call to the County Clerk's
office most of the time will give you the name of the owner; and
a call to the owner will usually be appreciated.
It is whemcsuch a call is not appreciated and brings no
relief that you will want to invoke the assistance of the law.
If you cannot reach the Highway Patrolman, Constable, or
Sheriff's Department, be certain that you make a note as to the
number, size and color of the animals; their brands, or other
distinguishing marks for:the assistance of the officers, and
for the preparation of your complaints before the County Attorney.

You must bear in mind that proof sufficient for a conviction
must be made beyond a reasonable doubt on the issue of whether or
not it was the intention of the owner to permit such stock to run
at large. Consistent failure to maintain adequate and proper
fences, or, to round up stock no notice, is usually found to be
evidence of willful intent.
However, where trespassers break down fences, or leave
gates open, the responsibility is on such a person and not upon
the owner of the livestock.
No injunctive relief can be granted unless there is a showing
of a consistent series of violations and that the criminal remedy
is not sufficient.
The successful enforcement of these laws will depend upon
your cooperation with your law enforcement officers and the County
Attorney. If you have the proper facts and are prepared to testify,
your officers will investigate your complaints; proper information
will be prepared; and the case will be heard by the court as
quickly as law will permit.
Very sincerely yours,
HOWARD G. HARTZOG,
County Judge.

The Court having been presented the recommendation of the
Committee to whom the bids had been submitted for study; and,
Mr. Clayton Toalson, Committee Member, and Mrs. Faye Sterling of
the Sterling Drug Company being present, there was some discussion
of the organization and operation of the Health Unit and the
Out-Patient Clinic.

Mr. Toalson briefly explained how the Connnittee had. set up "
hypothetical cost-to-clinic evaluation of the bids (which follows
recorded _in detail),; and, expla,ined that, the. Connnittee. are, in

In the discussion among the Court, the County Auditor, Mrs. Sterling,
and Mr. Toalson, it was made clear that the Health Unit and the Out-
patient Clinic for ~ndigent_ patients are two distinctly seaprate
operations, which work together, and to some extent, use the same
facilities and personnel.
The Out-patient Clinic is a part of the Calhoun Memorial Hospital,
and is under the direction of Mr. James Suddath as Hospital Administra-
tor.
I
The Helath Unit is a joint County-State operation under the
direction of Dr. Roy G. Reed, with Mr. Clayton Toalson as Chief
Sanitarian.
There being no further discussion, ,a motion was made by Connnis-
sionerWedig, seconded by Connnissioner Barton, and unanimously carried,

at cost plus 10% for the County Health Unit.

Gentlemen:
We are pleased to submit for your consideration our
proposal for medical service to qualified Health Clinic
patients.
We will furnish prescriptions at current Bluebook or
Redbook COST prices, plus a Service Charge of Fifty cents
per prescription. "Over-the-counter merchandise" may be
had at current Bluebook or Redbook "list" prices less
25%. This service will be available through both City
Drug Store and Sterling Drug. Billing to the County
will be from only one point, however.
It is our feeling that this arrangement will be to the
benefit of Calhoun County. Essentially the preparation
of a $1.00 prescription and that of a $10.00 prescrip-
tion is the same, expressed in terms of time and effort.
By establishing a set service charge, the County is not
penalized for our increased cost of keeping more ex-
pensive medicines in our inventories. Secondly, the
County's cost of medication, will be reduced, we believe,
below the present "cost plus 10i., plus 10 cents for
container" fees.
I
Thank you for your consideration.
.Sincerely,

Honorable Howard G. Hartzog and Members,
Commissioners Court of Calhoun County
Port Lavaca, Texas
Gentlemen:
Pursuant to your request, a detailed study of the bid
propositions concerning "drugs for indigents" has been
completed, and the following observations are respectfully
submitted.
Your attention is invited to Enclosure #1, attached.
You will note that an average of 68 prescriptions per
month have been approved, at .an average cost to the
County of $2.51.
I
In as much as the proposals submitted were separate and
distinct, (one at cost plus 10%; the other, prescription
items at Red or Blue Book cost plus 50~, and over the
counter items at Red or Blue Book list price less 25%)
it would be exceedingly difficult to evaluate the bids
based on the Statistics quoted in the paragraph above.
We have, therefore selected a typical month (March, 1961)
and have attempted to compute the pertinent cost for each
prescription.
~

The Red Book cost, together with projected charges for
both proposals, have been calculated, -and are submitted

mitted by Butler Pharmacy would prove to be most
advantageous. to Calhoun 'County.

DISCUSSION ON GUADALUPE RIVER PROJECT-U.S. ENGINEERS
Mrs. Grace Harvey appeared before the Court and said that she
had come at:the request of residentSlOn the Guadalupe;River to get
information about the proposed U. S. Engineers project on the river,
I
Mrs. Harvey said they'wanted to know what the Court was going
to do about the proposal that the County become a sponsoring partner
in the project. She said that Refugio County had agreed to enter
into the project.
Mr. Barton told her that the Court could not enter into the.
project; that they had consulted the Attorney General's Office
on the matter; and, that the project had been ruled an illegal
expenditure for the County. He said that the West Side Navigation
District had also been approached on sponsoring the project, and
that they could not do it. either.
Mrs. Harvey said that all the Engineers want is aid in pulling
out the logs from the river, and that it would ,cost only about
$400,000.
Mr. Barton said that this figure would be merely the initial cost;
that consideration should be given to what sponsoring such a project
would entail. He asked her to think about who would have to keep
the logs out of the river; who would build and maintain the levee,
and then keep it mowed on both sides. He said that Refugio County is
making a legal expenditure, but that the Court would not be.
I...,
Mrs. Harvey then asked if they could get help on the bridge
across the river.

Mr. Barton told her that they could not. He said that the
County has no right in there; that to work on the bridge would be
no different than going onto any private property to install a
culvert. He then asked her if the people who live there would want
to give right of way, and reminded her that they could go only to
the middle of the stream even in that event.
Mrs. Harvey then said that if the residents could get local
sponsors for the project they would give right of way, and asked if
there was no way of getting help on the bridge.
Mr. Barton told her that the Court would have to have right of
way; that then they could go only to the middle of the stream; and,
that local interests would have to do the remainder of the work. He
reminded her that they would have to maintain the levee; keep the
logs out of the river, and that such a maintenance project could
cost from $50,000 to $175,000 in one year's time. He said that he
could not be a part of tying up the Court in such a project; that
the County could not take on a project of that size for maintenance.
APPROVE TREASURER'S REPORT FOR MAY
On this, the 12th day of May, 1961, at a Regular Term of the
Commissioners Court of Calhoun County, Texas, Miss Mary Stephens,
County Treasurer, presented her report for the month of May, 1961,
and it having been read in open court and the Court having duly
considered the same together with the exhibits accompanying same,
and having compared balances in the various accounts and finding
said report to be correct, on motion duly made, seconded, and
unanimously carried, the County Treasurer's Report for the month
of May, 1961, is hereby ordered approved.
APPROVE BILLS FOR MAY
Upon a motion made by Commissioner Barton, seconded by Commis-
sioner Kabela, and unanimously carried, the May Bills #1199 through
#1514, as presented by the County Auditor were approved.
AUTHORIZE AUDITOR TO RECEIVE $1200 PER YEAR EXTRA FOR AUDITS
On this, the 12th day of May, '1961, there having come on for
hearing the question of accounting for the revenues and expenditures
of the various navigation, drainage and water and control and im-
provement districts in Calhoun County, the following action was
taken:
Since the County Auditor is required to audit the affairs of
such districts and, under the provisions of Article 1672, R.C.S.,
is entitled to supplementary compensation for his services on
behalf of such districts in an amount not less than twelve hundred
dollars per annum, to be paid by the County out of the General Fund
and repaid by such districts in such proportionate amounts as the
Commissioners Court may determine; and,
Since the County has paid the sum of twelve hundred dollars as
expressly provided in the aforementioned article;

It was therefore moved by Commissioner Barton, seconded by
Commissioner Kabela, and unanimously carried, that the districts be
advised that when the County Auditor has filed a detailed report
with the Commissioners Court showing the findings of his audit and
the condition of such district, the districts will be charged
according to the following schedule:

APPROVE DEPUTATION - COUNTY CLERK'S OFFICE
Upon a motion made by Commissioner Barton, seconded by
Commissioner Lindsey, and unanimously carried, the Court approved
the Deputation of Mrs. Mary Lois McMahan as Deputy County Clerk.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION ON OLD BRIDGE AS FISHING PIER
On this, the 13th day of June, 1961, at 11:00 A.M., there was a
meeting with Mr. Dick Cory, State Representative, the Commissioners
Court, and other interested groups and individuals, to discuss the
future of the old causeway and bridge which is planned to become a
fishing pier.
Those present were: Mr. Dick Cory, State Representative;
Mrs. Lois DeShazor; Dean Hlaford, Radio Station KGUL; Alton White, I
Calhoun County Navigation District; Dr. R. J. Roemer; K. M. Matlock;
Don Lenertz, Chamber of Commerce; Scott Vaughan, Mayor of Point
Comfort; Dick Reavis, Publisher; Hugh Bower, Port Lavaca City
Manager; Herman Ladewig, City Engineer; Jean Day, Attorney;
J. N. Green; and Mayor Frank Kinsey, of Port Lavaca.
Mr. Cory told the group that he had called them together to
discuss the handling of the bridge and causeway in order to get an
opinion of how the local people desired the matter to be handled.
He explained that if there should be need of a special bill, time
would be of inportance in working it up and presenting it. Mr. Cory
said that the Legislature would probably be in session until about
August 10.
Mr. Cory said that he understood that dedication of the new
bridge would be July 1; and after the new bridge is completed, the
State Highway Department will remove the center span of the old bridge.
He also told the group that the title to the approaches still rests
in the State, but that the State Highway Department had informed the
Game & Fish Department that the Highway Department would not be able
to maintain the pier; and, that they would agree to turn it over to
the Game & Fish Commission.
I
Mr. Cory told the group that the Game & Fish Department will
put lights along the old bridge and will build steps down to the
water. No automobile traffic will be allowed on the pier. He
said there were several choices in handling the matter;
The pier could be turned over to the State Highway Department
who has no money for maintenance of such a project; and would have
to maintain it only as a roadside park;
I

The pier could be turned over to the State Parks Board, who has
no money for construction to fix up the pier;
It can be turned over to a local agency; the County and the
Cit~es of Port Lavaca and Point Comfort; or, to the Navigation
District.
Dr. Roemer then asked Mr. Cory if he thcught that the Game and
Fish Department would take better care of it.
Mr. Cory told him that the Game & Fish Department has no money
for maintenance of the pier but that they do have money for construc-
tion to fix up the bridge as a pier.
Sheriff Halliburton then suggested that there would be little
actual maintenance required in the next two years since there would
be no auto traffic or heavy loads on it.
Mr. Houlihan then asked who would keep the pier clean; and if
the Game & Fish Department would be willing to go in and spend money
on it and then turn it over to us. He added that the County has no
maintenance people.
Mr. Cory told him that in that case they would have to look to
the County road maintenance people for that operation.
Judge Hartzog then said that the County had asked that the old
bridge be left standing so that it might be used for a fishing pier.
He referred to orders of January and May, 1958, recorded in Volume K,
of the Commissioners Court Minutes making this request of the State
Highway"Department, and said that a letter from the Department had
been received agreeing to this.
The Judge said that in all these possible ways of handling the
pier, there seemed to be no way of obtaining maintenance or cleaning
without granting concessions on the pier. He said that the County
has no right to grant concessions; that the State Parks Board can
but that they have no money for construction to fix up the pier.
Mr. Cory then asked the question, "Do you want. a local party
to handle it?"
The Judge then said he thought to let the Game & Fish Department
handle it; He said he did'not think~the Highway Department could do
it sincecthey have no money for it. eHe reminded them. that a. special
bill would be' needed.
Mr. Cory then told the group that a bill could be put through,
but that if they asked for money, ilt:would.not go through;u,
The Judge then remarked that exemption would have to be specified
for whomever handles the pier; that the State is not liable; the County
is not liable, but that the City is liable; therefore, that any party
not having exemption', and. operating the pier would have to have such
exemption written into the bill.
Mr. Cory then asked Mr. White if,he thought the Navigation
District would want the pier. Mr. White said that the Navigation
District is not set up 'for it; that they have no organization, and
he did not think they could. handle it.
Mr..Bower interjected that he thought that would involve too
many complications there.

Mr. Cory,then asked again if the group wanted a local party to
handle the pier, or if they wanted the Game & Fish Department to have
it. He said that it seemed they were the only ones left to consider.
Mrs. DeShazor then said that it should be left with the Game and
Fish Department, and after that, let the richest one handle it.
Mr. Vaughan, Mayor of Point Comfort, said that they have no
facilities and do not want to be involved; that it should be left
with the Game & Fish Department.
Mr. Bower then suggested that perhaps the State Highway
Department would maintain the approaches; that the City of Port
Lavaca could not do it now. He said that they could make some
improvements; perhaps get them to put in water and lights; that the
City could help with the charge for the lights; but that he favored
letting the Game ," & Fish Department do it.
I
,Mr. Cory then said, "Then you think we should let the Game and
Fish Department do it?" He said that the Department could get it
included in their parks program.
Mr. Reavis asked if Mr. Cory thought the Game & Fish Department
would be willing to stay in for just a couple years. Mr. Cory told
him that they would. be.
Mr. Bower then asked who would pay the light bill. He said that
the City could pay the light bill; that they could go along on that.
Mr. Cory then suggested that the City coula:also be charged with.
police protection of the pier; and, ,that if there were a private
concessioner, the concessioner could be charged with the maintenance
and cleaning of the pier.
I
Mr. Cory reminded them that he has about 30 days for legis-
lation, and that he needed to know what the group wants to do.
He said they seemed to be in agreement that the Game & Fish
Commission should be the ones to take over the bridge.
Mr. Reavis then asked whether in the event the Game & Fish
Department did not want the bridge, they could lease it to someone
else. Mr. Cory told him that they could.
Judge Hartzog then suggested that perhaps the Stare Highway
Department could fix up the approaches a little, drive T-heads, and
fill, which would allow space for restrooms and space for cars to
turn around in.
Mr. Cory then stated that the. Game & Fish Department could give
concessions. That perhaps part of the pier could be let to the
County and part to the City, or to a private party. He said that
it seemed in that case, the City' would have to come in on the lights,.
Mr. Bower then said that if they did~ they would want regular
light standards and not boards nailed up with drop cords and open
bulbs; and that they would want water so that fish could be washed,
and there would be drinking water.
I
Mr. Cory then ,said that they could meet again with the Game. and
Fish'Department and ,the Highway Department; that there should be
people from both cities and the Chamber of Commerce. He told them
that if anybody came up with any more ideas, they should call him.

Sheriff Halliburton then asked about the

to have two or three emergency phones on the
telephone lines on the
left as it is planned
pier.
There being no further discussion, and everyone being in agree-
ment that the bridge should be turned over to the Game & Fish Depart-
ment, the meeting adjourned at 12:05 P.M.

PUBLIC DISCUSSION ON FISHING PIER
The County Judge, Commissioner Kabela, and Commissioner Lindsey
met with Senator Patman and Representative Cory. Also present were
Mr. Howard Dodgen and Mr. Howard Lee, of the Game & Fish Department;
also Mr. R. W. Barlow of the State Parks Board, and Mr. King of the'
State Highway Department. Other interested persons present were:
Mr. Scott Vaughan, Mayor of Point Comfort; Mr. Hugh Bowers,
City Manager of Port Lavaca; Mr. Herman Ladewig, City Engineer;
Mr. Don Lenertz, President of the Chamber of Commerce; Mr. Ed Eckert,
Manager Chamber of Commerce; Mr. William Shepard, Alcoa Public Rela-
tions; Mr. Carl Webb, Game Warden; also, Dr. S. W. Lester; Mr. Dick
Reavis, Publisher; Mrs. Mary Phillips, Reporter; Mr. R. A. Barton;
Mr. J. N. Green; 'Mr. Ed Melcher; Mr. J. C. -Melcher; Mr. R. Rendon;
Mr. John Vail; Mr. Simon Cornelius; Mrs. Lois DeShazer; Mrs. A. L.
Burris; Mr. Wm. Massey.
The meeting was called to discuss the mechanics of turning the
old causeway bridge into a public fishing pier.
Mr. King read correspondence and minute orders dating back to
1958 wherein, at the request of the Commissioners Court, arrangements
were made with the Game & Fish Department, the State Highway Department,
and the U. S. Engineers, to turn the old bridge over to the Game and
Fish Department for conversion into a public fishing pier.
The said minute orders approved leaving 3000 feet of the old
bridge on the Port Lavaca side of the bay, and 1000 feet on the Point
Comfort side. Approval of this was received from the Corps of U. S.
Eng~neers; who $t:i!nt;ed.the,Highway Department 180 days, after the
opening-to-traffic of 'the;.ne,w:bTidge, in which to remove the center
section of the old bridge.
Mr... Dodgen, of the Game & Fish Department, in response to a
question as to whether they could do the necessary construction on
the old bridge, said that since the first arrangements had been made,
they had run into several hitches; that the Attorney General had

advised them they do not have the authority to spend money on a
fishing pier; that they had to tend to the Game & Fish business of
conservation. He said that they had tried to get a bill through the
legislature enabling them to do so, but that it had failed. He said
that they still have the power, and the permit, and that they want
to retain it, but that if the present appropriations bill passes the
money available would be a dead item. He said that it would be such
an interesting thing but that actually, the operation is more appro-
priate to the Parks Board; that they would have to work out the
mechanics of making the bridge into a fishing pier. Mr. Dodgen I
stated that however it might be managed, he is in favor of it, but
that he could not now commit the Game & Fish .Department to fixing
up the pier.
The Judge then suggested that the thing to do is to leave it
with the Parks Board.
Mr. Barlow of the Parks Board, said that he had driven out and
looked at the bridge, and that it looked as if they could carry it out;
that it seemed ideal for a fishing pier; and, tha~ they have the author-
ity to maintain and operate such a project. He said that his recommenda-
tion to the Parks Board would be to try to work out something with the
Game & Fish Department. He then asked if the title would vest in the
State. He was informed that it would. He said that they could not
spend money on anything that did not belong to the State. Mr. Barlow
said that he could not see anything more desirable than this project,
but that at this time they do not have funds to fix up the pier. He
said the Game & Fish Department does have such funds; that they would
fix up the pier. Mr. .Dodgen then reminded him that would depend upon
the Legislature.
Mr. Cory then said they would need a local bill empowering the
Game & Fish Department to spend the money.
I
Mr. Melcher, a local merchant, rose to say, that he was indeed
happy to see this project forming up so nicely; that it would be an
enormous thing~;fClr ~'~:g60d-of. 'Calhoun County. He stated it seemed
to him that the mechanics of arriving at a completed project would be
better left to the representatives of the government who were there;
and, to the Senator and the Representative. He said he thought the
departments could work it out.
There was a short,:period of questions and general remarks from tIe
floor by those present, then Mr. John Vail read a letter from Mr. Leonard
Fisher advocating leaving all of the old bridge except the draw-bridge.
There was some discussion of whether 3000 feet on the Port Lavaca
end of the bridge would put the pier out over the reef. Mr. King said
that the 3000 feet goes onto the reef; that it does not go beyone the
reef, but does go onto it.
Mr. King said that any modifications now made would have to be
allowed by the Corps of U.S. Engineers; that the permit granted
allowed 3000 feet on the Port Lavaca side, and 1000 feet on the
Point Comfort side. He reminded them that he has 180 days in which
to remove the old structure after the new bridge is open to traffic.
I
There followed some discussion of leaving an additional 500 feet
and Mr. King said that it would not be objectionable to him, but that
consent of the U. S. Engineers would have to be gained.

Mr. Bower then asked what was going to be done; whether the
bridge would be left with the Parks Board or whether they would go
to the Legislature with it.
The Judge told him that the Game & Fish Department has the permit
for it; that the Parks Board can operate it; and, that they would try
to work those things out. He said that since they are all in agreement,
Mr. Patman and Mr. Cory will know what to do in the legislative session.
Mr. Cory then asked if the Permit to the Game & Fish Department
could be transferred to the Parks Board. Mr. King told him that it
could be.
There were comments from the floor expressing agreement that the
proper way to handle the matter would be to let the Departments work
out the details between them.
Mr. Dodgen then expressed confidence that all the problems could
be worked out satisfactorily; that Mr. Patman and Mr. Cory were
interested in the project; and, that together they would find a way
to convert the old bridge into a fine public fishing pier.
Judge Hartzog thanked all those present for attending,and express-
ing their interest; and declared the meeting adjourned. He then
invited anyone who might care to ask questions they had not already
voiced, to feel free to come up and chat with the visitors.

DELEGATION .ON DRAINAGE DITCH - D. D. 1f8
A delegation comprised of Mr. M. D. Shillings; Mr. Louis Jaster;
Mr. V. B. Chanek; Mr. Ralph Tanner; Mr. W. W. Zwerschke; Mr. Alvin
Turk; and Mr. Larry Dio appeared before the Court complaining of a
plugged drainage ditch, which ditch is an outfall ditch of Drainage
District No.. 8.
li.....~
;,~~.:,c,.,*"~, .', ....,,,
"J
206
The delegation told the Court that the plugging of the ditch
had caused water to back up into the fields and that some cotton
crops were threatened with ruin, and that water had collected in
the public road and could not drain away. They told the Court
that Mr. Upton Mickle had plugged the ditch and would not .allow
anyone on€the property to clean out the ditch.
Judge Hartzog read from Article.1365, and told the delegation
that they could file a complaint to get it before the Justic~ of
the Peace Court.
Mr. Chanek said that he had two feet of water on his cotton.
Mr. Tanner said that the water would soon be in his house.
I
Judge Hartzog advised the delegation that anybody damaged by
water had a right to sign a complaint. Mr. Dio then asked how
you wuold justify an injunction. He asked if they would say that
the person responsible for plugging the ditch had not maintained
the ditch.
. Judge Hartzog attempted to call Mr. Mickle and the property
owner but was unable to contact them.
There was some questiori:.and discussion of whether or not .the
Drainage District or the County had an easement for the ditch
since it lies in the Roberts property. Judge Hartzog told the
group that he understood the ditch was originally a part of an~
old railroad grade; that where a drain was established without
restrictions as to width, the people could use any adjacent
area. He said it is known that the ditch has been there since
1928or.1929.
Mr. Ramsey then asked if perhaps any records could be found
to show that the ditch is a drainage ditch. The Judge told him
that there was a record of about- 'sixteen different ditches, none
identified. He suggested that Mrs. John O'Niel might have some
of the old minute books of the drainage district, or that Mrs. Anna
Stanford, or some of the other long-time residents might have
knowledge of the facts.
I
Mr. Dio then asked if the ditch were left open would the
property owner,on whose land it is, have to maintain it. He said
that it seemed to him that the big problem was maintaining the ditch.
He then suggested that the State Highway Department, the County, the
Drainage District, individually or together, could. maintain the ditch.
Mr. Zwerschke said that the property owner was not required to
maintain the ditch; and that Mr. Mickle had told him that he would be
glad to talk to anybody about the problem; ahdtthat h~.would be
willing to allow the ditch to be maintained if there were a proper
easement.G Mr. Dio then said that they would like to get some help
from everybody to maintain the ditch and keep it clean.
Mr. Chanek then asked whether in case his crop is ruined by
the water he could get damages. The Judge told him that he would I
have a right to bring a suit. He said that the water is also
over the highway; that the Drainage District has an easement; that
action could be taken by injunction which would involve the question
of ownership of land. He said that. the ditch is apparently on the
Wittenberg-Roberts property line.
Mr. Tanner said that he did not know as a fact that there was a
written easement; but that he remembered the ditch had been cleaned
out in about 1929.

Mr. Ramsey then commented that it must be established as a fact
that there is an easement; that they had been warned to stay off
the land.
Mr. Jack Fields was present through part of the foregoing
discussion, and the Judge recommended that they have him assist them
in filing a proper complaint and getting the actions started. The
delegation then left with Mr. Fields.
NOTE: July 12, 1961.
As these minutes were being recorded a report was received that
the Sheriff's Department had gone to. the man charged with
plugging the drainage ditch, and that upon request, he had started
digging out the ditch and that the water is. now draining from
the land.
LIBRARY ASSOCIATION SUBMITS PROPOSED BUDGET
Mr. Bill Shepard, Chairman of the Budget Committee of the Calhoun
County Library Associition; Mr. Dick Reavis, Chaiiman of the Coordinat
ing. Committee; and Mr. George F. Rhodes, Member of the Board, appeared
before the Court to make certain recommendations concerning the Library.
Judge Hartzog told the delegation that we now have a shell of a
library; and that after money becomes available, the Court hopes to put
some furniture in the building.
Mr. Reavis told the Court that the.Association appreciates what
the Court has done; that a lot of progress had been made. He said that
in talking to people, he had found that there is a very great desire for
a public library, and a true need for one.
Mr. Reavis. said that a Library is a great source of education for
adults as well as children; that a library is no longer just a place to
pick up a novel for entertainment, but a place to aid in the overall
education of the people; that people of all income levels have need of
a good public library. He said that the school children use the library
in pursuing research for their various assignments.
Mr. Reavis told the Court that the Association can put a reason-
able number of books on the shelves at the very start of the opening
of the Library,in the new building; that many people had given money
and books, and that more would be happy to do so once the Library is
permanently housed and operating. He concluded by saying that the
Ass6c~at~h had gon~ about the business of library education pretty
seriously.
Mr. Shepard then told the Court that the Committee had visited
many different libraries and had talked with Mr. Peace of the State
Library Board; and that he had received much help in setting up an
initial budget recommendation for operation of the Library. He said
that he had compared library services in various counties in an effort
to try to arrive at a reasonable first year budget. Mr. Shepard
commented that many counties with less valuation were expending a
great deal more on public library facilities and cited a few as an
illustratmon. He told the Court that despite this, the Committee had
decided not to pay too much attention to valuations in drawing up the
recommended budget for the Calhoun County Public Library. He said that
equipment and services could be added as required.

Mr. Shepard told the Court that the Association planned to put
a book file in the areas outside of Port Lavaca so that the entire ~
county could avail itself of library services. He said that as it is
now planned, a person in Port O'Connor, Seadrift, Point Comfort, and
other areas outside the City of Port Lavaca will be able to go to
the book .file and choose a book, which would be sent to them.
Mr. Shepard said that the Association had not worked out all the
details of this service, but that they feel.sure of getting the .
necessary cooperation to provide such a service. He said that this I
service was the reason for the item of travel expense being placed
in the budget since the Librarian would have to tend the book deposit
stations. ,He said that this service would be offered until such
time as a regular bookmobile could be put into service.
Mr. Rhodes told the Court that the Association had been buying
books and that they still have. money with which to buy more. The
information was then given that the Association had, at the last Board
meeting on July 7, authorized an expenditure in the amount of One
Thousand Dollars for the purchase of books; and that there remains
about that much moremoney'which the Association will spend for
books for the Library.
Mr. Shepard told the Court that the Association had bought some
necessary supplies and equipment but that card file cases were still
needed as well as supplies for beginning the Library operation in a
proper manner when it is moved into the new building. He also told
the Court that the Association had hired a professional librarian,
Mrs. Carl Shultz, to work for a month in an effort to get the books
properly cataloged, repaired and ready t.o be put on .shelves. in the
new building. The Association is paying Mrs. Shultz.'s salary :for .! I
this month.
Mr. Shepard told the Court that Mr. Peace, of the State Library
Board is now putting aside books for loan to the Library so that the
Association will have a good library system ready to function,properly
when it is turned over to the County. He then presented copies of
the following budget for the consideration of the Court:

Court, to-wit:
DISCUSSION OF DAMAGE & REPAIR - SEAWALLS - RELIEF ITEMS
The Court met in a special session to discuss hurricane damage
and emergency repairs with various insurance representatives; also,
the problem of distribution of relief supplies.
. .
I
Those present were:
Mr.D. D. Boyd, and Mr. B. I. Lempert, Insurance Representatives;
Mr. Scott Vaughan, Mayor of Point Comfort; and Mr. Jim Wright, of
Alcoa. Also, Mr. ,James Sudduth', Hospital Administrator ; and"
Mrs. Nancy Chambers, State Welfare Worker. Mr. .Ed 'Brinkman and: ' ,
Mr. DeFord, of;Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Seawall Engineers, were
present to discuss the damage to the Seawalls.
Mr~:Houlihan,askedMr. Vaughan(~ow Pofnt Comfort, had handled
repairs, and rebuilding under .fnsurance claim, and Mr. Vaughan said
that they had acquired one, general contractor who would handle the
overall repair and rebuilding program using local contractors as
subcontractors in performing the work. He said that this system seems
to be working fine for them, and that they should be at work placing
siding by tomorrow (Friday 22 Sept.).
Mr. Houlihan then mentioned the need for emergency repairs to
guard against further damage, and asked the insurance representatives
if this type repair could be started before the appraisals are
~mpleted. All the representatives present told him that their
companies allowed for this and wanted repatrs made in order to
forestall further damage. Mr. Houlihan told them that he had reports
on the emergency repairs which should be made to the Courthouse,
Hospital, and other County buildings, but that the Court had wanted
to be sure that this would not affect the County's insurance claims.
I
Mrs. Chambers told the Court that there seemed to be enough
clothing for the storm victims but that food was in short supply,
especially the kind which could just be warmed and eaten without
long cooking as those who were trying to rebuild and start over
did not have a way to cook. She.said that detergents and soap, also
were badly needed.
Mrs. Chambers recommended that the clothing be kept here in the
County even though it seemed that there might be more at present than
is needed. She said that the people are still in a dazed state, and
so busy working to try to clean up and get resettled that they are
thinking only of the immediate need. She said that mens' work clothes
and childrens' clothes are the things most in demand now because the
men are concerned only with working to get restablished, but that with
winter coming on, the usual requests for clothing will be multiplied
by those who have lost everything.
It ~as decided that these things would be stored at the Agri-
cultural Building, with volunteer workers to sort and distribute
the clothing as needed under local supervision.
I
Mr. Ed Brinkman, of Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Engineers, told
the Court that he had a question as to upon whom would fall the
burden of damage done to the seawalls. He said that the walls had
withstood the hurricane surprisinglyjwell considering their unfinished
state; that where the walls were capped, there had been very little

REPLACEMENT FOR ASSISTANT COUNTY AGENT
Mr. Joe Glover, District Director, A & M Extension Service, present-
ed to the Court that a question existed as a replacement for Mr.
Migura, Assistant County Agent, who resigned to accept full time
employment as County Agent of Bastrop County. He stated that a re-
evaluation of the farm population of Calhoun County, as of 1950,
as compared with the state farm population, indicated that under the
State Program, Calhoun County did not have sufficient farm population
to justify an Assistant County Agent.
The Court pointed out that not numbers but production was the proper
criteria of need, that the farm area of Calhoun County was separated
by numerous peninsulas and bays; that it was impossible for one man
to cover the entire area properly.

request for an Assistant County Agent.

ting the Extension Service to reconsider the discontinuance of an
Assistant County Agent, whereupon the following resolution was passed
and copies ordered sent to the Extension Service at College Station
and other Extension Service personnel.
THE STATE OF TEXAS I
I
COUNTY OF CALHOUN I
BE IT REMEMBERED, that the Commissioners Court of Calhoun County,
Texas, request the Extension Service to continue the office of Assist-
ant County Agent in Calhoun County, Texas.
We recognize the problems of the Department and the fact that, as to
farm families; this County is on the border line under the rules
as adopted by the Extension Service. However, we want to point out
1262
peculiar circumstances. that necessitate an exemption of such rules
as to Calhoun County.
FIRST: The geography of Calhoun County is quite different from that
of other.counties of equal farm population in that our farm and ranch
lands are constituted of many separate peninsulas and islands by reason
of the fact that it borders around the shores of Matagorda, Lavaca,
Cox's, Kellers, Carancahua, Chocolate, Esperitu Santo, Barroom, Mes- I..
quite and San Antonio Bays.
SECOND: Transportation to serve all areas is only possible by long
detour around or by causeways, boats or plane. One man cannot pos-
sibly cover all areas within a reasonable time.
THIRD: The diversity of the agricultural crops, brought about by the
various soil types, required the planting of vegetables, flax, cotton,
corn, rice, grain, grasses, etc.
FOURTH: Because of our flat lands, large farms here on the Bulf Coast
are more economical and by consolidation we have lost farm population
but the consolidation has not served to reduce the requirements of
an Assistant County Agent, because of the physical variations from
acre to acre, requires acreage check of insects and soil treatment.
FIFTH: We have meetings which require the attendance of two County
Agents. One would have to give up some eighteen (18) nights a month
to serve with the Farm Bureau, Farmers Union, Fair Association,Cat-
t1ements Association, Youth Rodeo Association, the various Water
Control and Drainage Districts, 4H meetings and related activities.
One man cannot serve.a11.
I
We will appreciate your recommendations that Calhoun County be made
a special exemption and that we be authorized an Assistant County
Agent.

Calhoun County in your order dated July 27, 1957, I wish to make the
following progress report and to submit my resignation, effective
this date.
We have developed a disaster relief organization of responsible people
who have been tested in two large scale emergency situations within the
past sixteen months, the flood of June, 1960 and Hurricane Carla in
September, 1961.
We have prepared a disaster plan for Calhoun County which has been ap-
proved by the State Office of Civil Defense. Since our organization
has been established pursuant to state law and our plan has been ap-
proved by the state authorities, we are eligible to secure government
surplus property. A survey of needed equipment has been made and the
necessary forms are on hand to apply for such equipment.
We have submitted the necessary project applications to secure rei~
bursement from the federal government for expenditures made during
and as a result of Hurricane Carla. A separate report on the status
of these applications is attached.
We have been advised by the General Services Administration that all of
the conditions relative to the houses which have been made available at
Peary Place Housing Project and Cabaniss Field for the people left home-
less by Hurricane Carla have been satisfactorily complied with and that
the program is on schedule.
During the period of more than four years we have served in this capa-
city we have made numbers of appearances before various civic, school
and community clubs and have consulted with many people on an individual
basis regarding the problems of civil defense. We have had full cooper-
ation from the press in presenting the program. We have just returned
from attending the second annual state conference on civil defense,
this time in company with the key personnel of our local civil defense
organization and some of the members of the Commissioners Court. We are
of the opinion that at this time we have an informed and cooperative
public in Calhoun County on the subject of disaster relief.
This County, with all of the rest of the United States, is about to
undertake an'intensive 'program of surveying all property in the county
as part of the National Fallout Survey Program. This is just the pre-
lude to the job of advising, inspecting and supervising the construction
of family and community fallout shelters. From this point forward, the
accent in civil defense is going to be on protection against enemy attack
and a complete program must be developed in conjunction with the national
plan.
Since we have completed the basic assignment you gave us, and since this
new phase is about to begin, we wish to withdraw from the active adminis-
tration of this program. While we have enjoyed working with the fine
people who have assisted in the activation of this program and have wel-
comed the opportunity to serve our community on this . voluntary basis,
we have also found that the demands of this job are such that we must have
relief from this responsibility.
We will surrender the files to anyone you designate, and you may be as-
sured that we will be available to provide any information or advise
that our experience has provided us. Since this fallout survey will be-
264
gin almost immediately, we hope that you will appoint our replacement
without delay; we do not want to become involved in the new:~rogram
and the man who succeeds me should be in on the program from the be-
ginning.
Sincerely yours,
James F. Houlihan

RESOLUTION - BOB HERNDON
A motion was made by Commissioner Barton, seconded by Commissioner
Lindsey, and carried, that the following resolution be adopted:
"The County Commissioners Court of Calhoun County, Texas, charged
by Texas law in coordinating Civil Defense and Disaster Relief in
Calhoun County, Texas, where the eye of Hurricane "Carla" expended
its fury and laid waste to lives, homes, businesses and p~operty,
such as never experienced since the days of Cabesa de Vaca, and Robert
de LaSalle, have many to thank for their efforts and cooperation and
we have a deep sense of gratitude and appreciation to the Amateur
Radio Operators, who provided us with our only outside communication
after the winds had exceeded one hundred and twenty miles per hour.
We are all in agreement that it was the thinking, planning, testing and
long hours of self sacrifice by one man that resulted in our success and
that man is Bob Herndon, W5URW, who early in 1961 volunteered to accept
the assignment of Director of Communications of the Calhoun County
Volunteer Civil Defense Organization.
Mr. Herndon is a dedicated "Ham" with a full time avocation as Medical
Technician of the Calhoun Memorial Hospital. Because of his awareness
of public welfare and his belief that communications by amateur radio
is the only dependable service which by history can be successfully
maintained in a disaster, gave his time and efforts to planning an
organization in advance of need.
As Hurricane "Carla" approached our Texas shore, two full days before
there was certainty of it reaching the Texas Coast, Bob Herndon moved
into Civil Defense Headquarters,~adio room, completed checking his plan-
ned set up and was on twenty four hour duty save a few minutes of rest
from time to time.
Prior to the first full winds units of our armed forces likewise set up
their radio equipment and communications personnel, but when the hurricane
reached its peak, all telephone lines, law enforcement and military equip-
ment blacked out and our sole service was on Bob Herndon's ham radio
crews, who then doubled for military, state, police and law enforcement
branches as well as for civilian defense.
(Cont. 267A)
I
I
I
267A
One Major was heard to say, "Here I am with a million dollars
worth of electric equipment dead as a mackerel, and the "Ham"
next door with a hundred dollar set is reporting the hurricane
to a man in Germany".
Mr. Herndon loaned part of his equipment to the military and for
two days the "Hams" kept vital communications open. He was first
on duty and the last to leave after other communicators were
established some two days later. His efforts were above and be-
yond his duties and we feel that he is entitled to consideration
and any recognition of merit that can be awarded.

As you know, the Republican Party will hold a Primary Election
May 5, 1962. The part will need a set of four boxes for each
precinct and the absentee box. The Republican party expects
boxes of equal quality with the Democratic boxes. I am sure you
know the election code specifications regarding construction and
type much better than I.
Secondly, the Republican Party requests the use of the Court House
for the Primary Election to be held May 6, 1962 for Precinct No.1.
Sincerely,
F. M. Logsdon, M. D.
Coun ty Chairman
Republican Party
The Court advised that this matter had been taken care of by order
dated December 11, 1961.
