City council denies zoning change request
By Scott Lucc
The first item of business the
Abernathy..city council addressed
Tuesday night was a zoning
matter concerning a game room
at 108 E. 2nd St.
Jesse Hood brought a request
for a zoning change to the city
council to allow the game room
in an area zoned multi-family
zone1.
The council sent out questionnaires to all property owners
within 200 feet of the proposed
game room asking whether or
not they had any objections.
The responses showed four
had no objection while two
respondents were opposed.
Mayor Pete Thompson and
Councilman Tommy Overstreet
also voiced objections citing
traffic and possible devaluation
of adjacent property as potential
problems.
Thompson said that he would
recommend to the council not to
allow the change if there were
only one objection.
The other councilmen agreed
with Thompson and Overstreet.
Overstreet made a motion to
deny the request for a zoning
change. Councilman Carl Johnson
seconded the motion and it
passed, 4-0.
The council then held a pul.lic
hearing on the city's budget for
1990·91.
The hearing was a workshop
for the council to discuss the
city's various departments' needs
in a public forum with city
manager Frank Russell.
The council will direct Russell
to devise a budget with their
priorities in mind.
The council discussed budgeting for pay increases for city
employees; declining revenues
from licenses and permits; water
tower repair; and the airport.
The council took no formal
action, adjourned from the
hearing and entered the regular
meeting.
Discussion items
The council discussed the
closing of the landfill and
alternatives needed.
Triple C sanitation services
has offered a contract to the
city for handling the extra
ref usc after the landfill closes
in November.
Russell pointed out that
tearing buildings down after
November would be more expensive to dispose. He also said
that trash put into large ·portable dumpsters would have to
be inspected and separated.
No action was taken.
Thompson gave a presentation
on the city's water wells status.
He presented graphs and
charts of measurements of four
of the city's active wells.
The mayor's work showed that
all the wells' static levels were
dropping.
He also said that the wells
should be checked twice a year.
One time during peak (summer)
periods and once during low
(winter) periods.
Russell said that city employees would begin the twice yearly
tests.
Russell gave· the council tax
collection report showing 96
percent of the taxes levied by
the city have been collected.
Through the same time period
last year, 95.78 percent had
been collected.
Tota l collections for current
taxes was $185,717.86 from Oct.
1, 1989, to July 31, 1990.
Action items
Overstreet made a motion to
a
re lease a paving lien against
property owned by James Davis
in the Vineyard Addition.
City secretary Hcilda Cannon
said that no paperwork could be
found to show where Davis owed
the cily any money for street
paving.
Johnson seconded the motion
which passed, 4·0.
The council sclecled by acclamation First State Bank of
Abernathy as the cily's bank
depository.
The council agreed to pursue
a join! filing agreement in an
effort to obtain extended area
telephone service. (Sec related
story page 1.)
Councilman
E lias "Shorty"
Vecchio made a motion lo set
the cily's 1990-1991 tax rate at
.4642 cents per $100 of properly
valuation.
Overstreet
seconded
the
motion and it passed, 4·0.
The council then set a public
hearing date for Aug. 28.
Councilmen Vecchio, Over·
street, Johnson and Bill Elliott
were in attendance.
The next regu lar council
meeting is scheduled for Sept.
10.

AISD 1990-91 estimated budget
shows decrease from 1989-90
Prior to Monday night's school board meeting the members
met for a budget hearing.
AISD business manager Floyd G:~llow:~y expbined to the
bo:~rd increases and decreases in each of the d istrict's JCJ90-91
operating funds as compared to 1989·90 amended
_Thc_l990-91 !Qtal operating expense for :~II
estimated to be $5,133,289. The total as amended for 19R9-90
was $5,286,174 for a $152,885 decrease from last sc hoo l year
to this year.
The figures showed increases in some funds for supplies and
materials and instructional services. The overall decrease for
the estimated 1990-91 budget from 1990-91 was due in part to
not having an approximately $330,000 asbestos remova l project
or a c~ pital improveme nt expense of approximately $4),000 for
the track resurfacing as in 1989-90.
The 1989-90 amended budget was $421,624 higher than what
was estimated for that year.
The amended budget reflects some actual operating expenses
incurred and some balances for the 1989-90 school year .
The board cannot amend the 1989-90 budget after Aug. 31.
Tommy Myatt made a motion to accept the 1989-90 amended
budget. Robert Pope seconded the motion and it passed, 5-0.
Mike Lambert then made a motion, seconded by Steve Riley,
to accept the 1990-91 estimated budget. The motion passed, 5-
0.

Abernathy Chamber of Commerce
schedules street dance Aug. 25
Abernathy Chamber of Commerce met Aug. 2 for their
monthly meeting.
The organization voted to
sponsor a street dance for the
youth of Abernathy Aug. 25. It
will be in front of the city hall
and currently the chamber plans
to hi rc a live band.
In a report about the June 30
nea market sponsored by the
chamber, the chamber lost
$180.42 in funds on the activity.
Members voted to sponsor a
football page in the ~
Avalanche Journal.
They voted to apply the S10
that had gone to a monthly
drawing to the scholarship fund.
This was already being done but
will now be done on a permanent basis.
During the July meeting there
was discussion about making
membership dues payable either
yearly or every six months. A
committee was selected to look
into the matter. The committee
reported to the chamber that
their reccommendation was to
leave the payment as they were
so members could pay at their
convience. The chamber decided
to go with the committee
recommendation.
The chamber appointed Jim
Odom as temporary chairman of
an induStrial board. The board
will act as a committee to look
into
prospective
businesses
wanting to move to Abernathy
and supply those ·businesses with
information about the community.

God is lovi ng, and God is also long-suffering, but even God can,
and does get his fill of sin. And according to th e book of Jonah,
God had had enough of the sins of th e people from Nineveh.
He had decided to bring down upon them destruction . But before
he could do that he had to try and warn them, so he spoke to a
man by th e name of Jonah. He told him to go and warn them of His
plans, and plea for their repentance.
No:w Jonah wasn't as eager to save Nineveh as God was, in fact
he tned to run away from God. He went to buy fare on a ship that
headed for a city called Tarshish, which on the map is in the opposite direction of Nineveh, but any tim e you're not going with God,
you're going against him.
So God had to teach Jonah a lesson. He prepared a great whale to
hold him awhile, and while Jonah was in the belly of th at whale, it
was a school house of learning for him.
In the belly of the whale Jonah did some tall praying, and while
there he decided to do as God was wanting him to do. So God
caused the whale to deposit Jon ah out on the shore, and from there
he headed st raight to Nineveh to procl aim God's message; "Repent,
for in forty days God is going to wipe you out because of your
sinful ways!"
So what happened' They listened to him and they all repented , all
120,000. And th en what happened? God had mercy upon them, He
spared them all.
Docs God ever change His mind? Only when we have a change of
heart, H c docs.
Have you been in the belly of a whale lately? Surely we all are
there at some time or another. No one lik es to be there, but we do
have to admit, there we learn some of th e best lessons in life. And
it 's during those times when we really learn what faith is all about.
The sto ry is told of a man who purchased a little song bird, but
the little bird could not learn any tunes because of all the outside
interfere nce. The owner would try to teach the song bird, but he
was too distracted by o ut side noises. So the owner decided to place
a blanket over the cage, a nd it was then in those dark lonely hours
that the song bird began to learn lovely tunes from his master.
You know it's the same way with us, sometimes we have to be
down on our back before we will ever look up to God and listen to
what he is saying to us.
Christ had His Garden of Gethscmane, and you and I will have
ours as well. And we will have to pray as Christ did while there;
"Father, if tho u be willing, remove this cup from me, nevertheless
not my will, but thin e, be done."
No, it's not always easy, but remember, He has promised th at H e
would never le ave you, nor forsake you. And He knows what pain
and agony is all about, for He's been there.
So the next time that you're in the belly of a wh ale, do these two
things: pray in earnest as Jonah did and be as open to God's will as
Christ was. He will see you through. "And, lo, I am with you always,
even unto the end of the world." (Matthew 28:20)

ByScaui.Uollll are on the prowl in New
I
Deal.
F"ust year bead eoacla and
· athletic director Sammy Lee
began senclillg his 1990 New
Deal footbalf players throup
two-a-day workouts Monday.
Today, they will put the pads
on and prepare for their Aug. 7A
scriQimage at home against Hart.
Their second scrimmage, Aua.
31, will be on the road against
Lodney.
The saimmagcs will help Lee
rmc tunc his Lion machine for
their season opener at home
against Hale Center Sept. 7 at 8
p.m.
Assisting Lee with coaching
responsibilities will be Desmond
Ayala with linemen, tacldea and
noscguards; Brad Eblen, linemen
and secondary; and Kyle Carver,
linebackers, split ends and
receivers.
The assistants are familiar
with the players but the players
aren't familiar with another new
offense • wishbone. The fourth
new offense in four years.
"The seniors now have been
under four different systems
since they've been in high
school," lee said.
Lee worked with the Lions
the
ofT-season
last
during
spring. He has seen the team
play on film but hadn't seen the
players work out until this
week.
"They look real good," Lee
said. "I'm real encouraged by
their work habits and ethics.
The kids work hard. That part
of it is real pleasing - that you
can'! work them hard enough.
They like it. They like football."
lee said that he had 26
players come out for the varsity
and 30 on the junior varsity.
The positions aren't sewed up
and competition is stiff.
"We're two-deep everywhere,"
lee said about the number of
players vying for individual
positions.
"We've still got people fight ing for jobs. We're awful young

still. We've got two,. ~ophomores
at quarterback," he sa1d.
The quarterback contingent is
Abel Ramirez and Matt Williams.
lee did admit to some offensive strength.
"The only place that we're
real strong at that I can sec is
at fullback; lee said.
That is senior Tommy Herrnn.
"Because he's been there. He
knows it; he's played it; he's
played it on Friday nights," lee
said. "He understands what
Friday night's about."
Herron received an Honorable
Mention last year in District 4AA at offensive running back as
well as making all district
second team defense at defensive end .
Lee agreed that the Lions
aren't big in the weight category but he can sec other plus
marks in the team .
"We're pretty strong. We're
not excessively strong like I
want to be," he said. "We're
quick. The kids arc smart. They
understand football. They know
what it takes to get a guy a
block and that means a•Jot.
"Where you got a bi!l.!!uY. th~ t
may not be as ncet-foo~, he
cannot get a block even though
he's the prettiest kid out there.
If you got a small one that's
scrappy,
never-say-die
type
attitude, we'll get a block," lee
said. "That's what we've got.
We're full of them."
The district realignment this
year took one of New Deal's
long-time rivals, Shallowater,
out or their district which
pleases Lee. He did sec a downside to t eam~· movements.
"I'm sorta happy," lee said
about Shallowater's exit. "I'm
sorry Post's in our district,
though."
Post was a powerhouse in
class AAA football last year.
Lower high school enrollment
numbers forced the Antelopes
into class AA .. Most prognos-
ticators have already picked
Post to win the district. They
have also been picked as high as
third place in the state in class
AA in some early polls.
The Top of Texas football
magazine has pi~ked New Deal
to finish fourth in their district
behind Post, Idalou and Seagraves.
lee said that ranking came
from area coaches.
'That's done by the coaches.
They (Top of Texas) send out a
questionnaire," lee said. "I think
it (New Deal's rankin!l) just
~oes back to our tradotion. I
mean it's obvious that we're not .
going to be any world-beaters
or contendi ng for any state
titles as they did two or three
years ago.
"In the same vein, New Deal
football and New Deal kids,
they're !mown to come hit you
ami do what they need to do,"
Lee said.

1990 Property Tax Rates
in City of New Deal
This notice concerns 1990 property tax rates for City of
New Deal. It presents information about the three tax rates.
Last year's lax rate is the actual rate the taxing unit used to
determine property taxes last year. This year's ~ lax
rate would impose the same total taxes as last year if you
compare properties taxed in both years. This year's ~
lax rate is the highest lax rate the ,laxing unit can set before
taxpayers can start tax rollback procedures. In each case
these rates are found by dividing the total amount of taxes by
the tax base (the total value of taxable property) with adjustments as required by stale law. The rates are given per
$100 of property value.
Last year's tax rate:
Last year's operaling taxes
+ Last year's debt taxes
= Last year's total taxes
+Last year's tax base
.
= Last year's total tax rate
+This year's adjusted tax base
(after subtracting value of

By Stefani Harrison
Steve Burleson brings a lot of
enthusiasm and first-hand experience to his new endeavor as
Abernathy Junior High School
principal.
Burleson has worked as a
teacher and coach for 14 years
and now begins his fifth year as
an administrator. Last year he
worked as a principal at Alpine
High School, just south of
Odessa.
Burleson is looking forward to
a productive and exciting year,
and feels comfortable around the
teachers he has met.
As far as im provemc:nt ha the
school system, Burleson said he
would like to continue working
with at-risk students.
Abernathy's junior high system, which includes fifth through eighth grades, won't be a
completely
new
experience.
Burleson also worked for Booker
Texas High School as a principal. Booker's school system
began with fifth grade and
continued through the twelfth
grade.
Burleson is pleased with the
community's warm welcome to
his family. He and his wife,

j:Abernathy Back-To-School News
Welcome Back!
Open letter from school superintendent
Officers of Abernathy High
School's student council attended student council camp at
San Angelo State University July
72-27.
Attending the eamp were
Alyson
Aldridge,
president;
Mandi Mouser, secretary; Alexi
Woodul, historian; Tiffany Pope,
reporter; and Lisa Pearson,
sponsor.
Dear Students, Parents, and Patrons of Abernathy lSD
Although it was a long time ago, I can remember my very
first day as a fust grade student. It was an exciting and
special day that changed my life forever. I can also remember ·
a · special and exciting day some years later when I stood
before my first class and gave my first lesson as a teacher.
This year will mark the beginning of my twenty-fifth year in
education and I still feel the same excitement that I felt some
forty years ago. Good schools are still wonderful, special and
exciting places that open doors and change lives. I feel that
Abernathy school is such a place and I feel blessed to be part
of a school system such as this.
The academy's curriculum
provides a quality education in a
Christian environment.
Anyone interested in attending
Abernathy Christian Academy
should call 298-2858 for more
inform ation.
During the sixth called session of the legislature, Senate Bill
1 was enacted. The financial impact of this bill on our school
will not be completely known for some time but other provisinns in that bill will once again change some of the rules
that govern our schools. The legislature is making one mor~
ancmpt to legislate good schools. In my opinion this is not
poss ible. Good schools happen because parents, teachers,
school board members, students, and community leaders work
together and cxpecl th e best.
Abernathy High School cheerleaders attended checrleading camp at
Texas Tech University June 1(}-14. Thm;c atlcnding were (front row,
left to right) Alyson Aldridge, mascot Kristi Galloway, Alexi Woodul,
(back row) Cami Pope, Micha Riley, Kara Davis and Mandi Mouser.
Teacher appraisal periods
scheduled for school year
I am glad that on August 29, IIJ<JO, some kindergarten
student will walk into our school for the very first time and
discover that school is a wonderful place that opens doors and
changes lives. I am glad that the impression that is made on
that student will last a lifetime. I am looking forward to the
challenge of se rving all our st udent s in thi s most positive
way. T hank you for giving me and those that work with me
that privilege.
Th e Abernathy Independent
School District board of trustees
approved a list of dates for
teacher appraisals for the 1990·
91 school year.
Superintendent Charles Floyd
gave 1he board a list of dates
that comp ly with state laws at

For Children
At camp the group obtained
new ideas for the coming school
year. They learned about new
fund raisers and how to promote
school spirit.
Each council member was put
in a group, not with others from
their hometown, and that group
formed their own council. Aldridgt and Mouser were each
elected secretary of their group.
Christian Academy classes start Sept. 4
The re arc many good reasons for me to look forward to this
year. I feel very confident in the abilities of the teachers,
administrators, and stafT members that make up our school. I
feel that under the guidance and leadership of our school
board, that we have made excellent preparations for this year.
And I am confident of your support for quality and excellence
in education. No community in this state can come close to
the support that you give us here at the school. We recognize
this support and look forward to working with each of you in
the months ahead.

ELEMENTARY

Dear Parents:
We will be tc~ching orl!aruzat~onal skills to our ~tudents, and there
arc some specific supplies wh1ch we arc requestmg you to furnish
for your childr~n. Many students have poor grades because they
cannot fmd the1r work, so we will be leading them and teaching
them to be organized.
We will be using_ the following "color coding" system throughout
elementary and m1ddlc school. We believe the color coding system
will become a "habit" for the students that will help them throughout school.
Red
Reading
Dark Blue
Language
Yellow
Math
Spelling
Light Blue
Green
Science
Purple
Creative Writing
Orange Social Studies
The Young Lions Booster Club operates our student store, and
supplies can be bought on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings.
Please make su re your child keeps enough supplies -- especially
pape r, pencils, crayons, glue and scissors. Your child has a much
more productive and positive day when he/she is prepared with these
"essentials". Plan on your child losing or using two to five pencils
weekly. , Pencils are two for $.25. Notebook paper and spirals must be
wide-ruled, not narrow or college ruled. Spirals need to also be
single subject lypc.
•Please identify all items with permanent marker, engraving tool or
tape.
(Please mark all items with child's name with permanent marker,
engraving tool or tape)
Physical Educalion (PK lhrough 4th)
Tennis shoes must be worn in th e gym. If your ch ild wears a different type of shoes for school, please send a pair of tennis shoe s

More than 23 million American
children will start taking their
lunches when school opens soon,
and whether the food is safe to
cat may depend on how it's
prepared.
A nutritionist with the Texas
Agricultural Extension Service
said that food-borne illness is a
bigger problem than most people
think. Between 24 and 81 million
cases of this disease are reportcd each year.
"The best defellfe against
food -borne illness is safe food
handling practices," Dr. Mary
Kinney Sweeten said. "This
means taking precautions every
time food is prepared."
Sweeten advises those who
pack lunches for school, work,
trips or other events to follow
these tips:
1) Keep everything that
touches food clean. Stop and
wash utensils, · bowls and counter
tops - everything that touches
food - in between working on
each dish.
2) Usc a fork, not your hands
to mix meat, macaroni, egg,
tuna or green salad. Your hands
continually pick up bacteria and
other germs that get into fingernails and in the creased skin
of the hands. Only vigorous
washing · with hot, soapy water
prepares hands to safely deal
with food.
3) Cook food thoroughly. For
complete safety, raw meat,
poultry and fiSh should be
thoroughly cooked, following
package or cookbook directions.
4) Refrigerate lunch ftxed the
night before. Pack your bag
with perishables - meat or
poultry sandwiches, hard-boiled
eggs - and refri$erate it. Add
chips and cook•es and cold
drinks the
plastic refrigerator dish filled
with water and frozen, or one
of the new commercial gels.
Also, some lunch boxes now
come with freeze pack inserts.
2) Freeze sandwiches. This
works best with coarse, textured
breads that won't get soggy
when thawing. The sandwich
thaws in time for lunch, and it
keeps everything else cool in
the· meantime. Sandwich extraslettuce, tomato and mayonnaise
- don't freeze well. Pack them
separately.
. 3) Use a thermos to keep milk
or juice cold, or try the new
fruit juices in wax paper cartons
that need no refrigeration.
4) Keep your lunch in the
coolest place possible. Never
leave it m direct sun or on a
warm surface.
Sweeten said some foods are
safer to take along for lunch
than
others.
Commercially
prepared and ready to eat
meats, such as corned beef,
salami and bologna, are good
lunch box choices because they
keep well.
"Canned meat and poultry,
which can be opened and eaten
immediately, are also good
choices," she said. "Before )'OU
buy these, make sure the cans
are properly sealed and not
rusted, bulgmg, or badly dented."
Fruits and vegetables go weli
with any lunch, Sweeten said.
Wash them before packing to
remove soil, bactena, viruses
and insecticide sprays.
"It's also important to take
care of your lunch container,"
Sweeten said. "Wash lunch boxes
and laminated totes thoroughly
every night to keep bacteria
inside." A
