Skipper leaves job that was not first choice
ByJudyl.uce
Soon after _vaduatioo from
Abernathy Higb School, Billy
Skipper went to work for F'ust
Stale Bank in Abernathy.
Ke ooly planned on keeping
the job for a few months and
then hoped to begin farming
with his grandfather.
"I wasn't for it (the job) at
all. I didn't want to go to work
at the bank. I was going to
farm and he (his father) said
'just go try it'. And I'm still
here,• said Skipper.
That job turned into 48 years
of service to the bank and to
Abernathy.
While in high school Skipper
worked as a "soda jerk" at
Roberts' Drug Store. Mr. Roberts recommended Skipper to
Ercell Givens of f"ust State
Bank. Givens talked to Skipper's
father and Skipper bad the job.
Skipper retires from his bank
job today, Jan. 31. He leaves as
a vice president and member of
the board of directors.
His first responsibility at the
bank was as bookkeeper, beginning Nov. 1, 1943. He became a
cashier in 1952; joined the board
in 1955 and became vice president in 1977.
Skipper took a leave of absence from the bank from April
1946 to April 1947 to serve in
the United States Air Force.
During World War II be was
stationed in Denver, Colorado,
and near Phoenix, Arizona.
"I was in the last draft call,•
said Skipper. "Then after a year
they sent me home."
His years of service on the
Abernathy City Councii,,J963 to
1967, are remembered by aomc
as when the town ran out of
water.
Skipper said the water didn't
actually slop flowing, but it did
have to be rationed.
"In the year of '64 a lot of
wells went dry around here;
said Skipper.
The prediction was that
Abernathy would at least have
water another 20 years, Skipper
said.
For several months residents
were asked not to water their
lawns but there was enough
water for drinking, cooking and
bathing.
"It was a little bit scary."
The good side of this is that
music could play a part in
Skipper's future as it has in his
past.
Du~ the late 1940s Skipper
• played m . a band caUed Bill
Harkey and the Sour Notes.
They played for annual gin
meetings and dinners, square
dances and Fourth of July
festivities.
"It was just fun. Every once
in a while we'd get paid something; said Skipper.
Skipper played the mandolin
"just well enough to want to but
not good enough to be good at
it."
In the band along with Skipper and Harkey were John
Harkey and "the Attebury boys".
Skipper's musical ability may
be a large portion of his future
in the work he hopes to do with
the Southern Baptist Home
Missions Board.
He said he and his wife Edna
plan to look into the possiblity
of becoming involved with the
board.
They could be "building new
churches or helping new churches get started."

court clerk. Shropshire seconded
the motion which also passed, 40.
Zoning issue
The council held a public
hearing to discuss a zone change request at 311 S. Monroe
presented by Ola J. Bynum.
Bynum was requesting a
change from R-1, single-fmily
residence, to 1-1, light industrial. She was accompanied by her
son Larry.
The council ultimately approved the change.
Mayor Terry Martin explained
that the request was being made
to make the property more
desirable for purchase by the
Northrup King Co.
Danny Hancock and Richard
Palmer, Northrup King representatives, were also present.
Herman Lorenz and Leroy
Freeman, as members of the
public, were on hand to consider
the plans for expansion.
Martin offered them a copy of
plans presented by Steve Thompson at a special council meeting Jan. 6. Thompson is the
Northrup King plant manager.
"I don't see any problem with
it," Lowrance said after be and
Freeman inspected the plans.
Martin pointed to the plans
and said the property would
primarily be used as a driveway
for easier access to expanded
plant facilities.
Hancock told Lowrance that
the company did not have any
intentions of placing any loud
machinery on the new property
near the Club House on the
northside of the current facility.
"This will be the most modem
sorghum conditioning facility in
the United States; Hancock
said. "It should accommodate us
for 20 or 30 years."
He added that environmental
pollution was a "primary concern" of the company.
Martin asked when they
thought
construction
would
begin if the land was purchased.
Palmer said the "best case•
scenario would be May 1.

p.m. when the regular meeting
began before taking action.

presented by Wayne Graham. La
Fon seconded the motion which
passed unanimously.
Martin asked Graham what the
difference was in a "$10,000
increase in funds available" and
a $574 overall loss.
Graham said the $574 loss is
the "best look at what the fund
might be doing•.
"Overall, we're not building up
cash but we're not sinking
either; Martin said.
"Yes, you're hoi~ your
own; Graham said, adding that
the city was "okay if the deficit
doesn't build".
Shropshire made a motion to
purchase a copier from Cannon
for $1,395. The purchase would
be contingent on Purdom's
acceptance of the machine after
a trial-use period. The. present

(jwmg It V.p
There is a story called "The Monk and
the Woman" in a book called "Song of the
Bird" by Anthony de Mello. The story Is
about two monks on their way to the
monastery finding an exceedingly beau II·
ful woman at the river bank. Like them,
she wished to cross the river, but the
water was too high. So one of the monks
lifted her on his back and canled her
across.
The fellow monk was thoroughly
scandalized . For two full hours he berated
him on his negligence in keeping the "oly
rule. Had he forgotten that he was a
monk? How dare he touch a woman· and
more, actually carry her across the river?
And what would people say? Had he
brought their holy religion Into dlsrepu te? And so on and so forth. The offend·
ing monk patiently listened to the endless
sermon. Finally he broke in with:
"Brother, I dropped the woman at the
river. Are you still carrying her?n
When someone does something
wrong, he/she should be held accountable. Every individual has to take the
responsibility for the actions which he/
she does. That Is a fact of life. We can
explain reasons why we did certain things
in certain ways and that may help
someone's understanding. But the final
result of an action rests with the lndividual. The problem Is !hal too many
people do not want .t he Individual to
forget· like the one monk In the story.
f (I
t
Songof
One monk did somethlne against his
held religious beliefs. He knew it; he real·
!zed It; he was willing to pay the consequences of it. The other monk could not let
It lie. He had to continually remind the one
monk about his mistake until the wrong
action became his problem and not the one
who did the action.
Too many people fall into the same trap.
When someone we admire and respect does
the wrong thing, our greatest desire is that
he/she does not do it again. There is a way to
do that but It is not through continually
reminding the individual about the wrong
action. Let me quickly say that we will not
forget what happened. Unfortunately, the
wrong action will "color" the way that we
view the person hom now on. When faced
with certain similar circumstances, we will
wonder If the person will act the same way.
That Is one of the consequences of wrong
actions. But It is different than continually
"carrylngn the problem with us. All of us
have to believe that people have the capacity
to change during the course of their lifetime.
Otherwise we would be suspicious of
everyone and could trust no one- not even
our own family members.
At some point, each one has to say, "This
has happened. We do not like it and do not
want It to happen again. And let's go on!n
We have an easy time saying the first two
sentences. Ills the third thai gives us
trouble. Let's make sure that we go on.

conon p1 _. ccrs on the High Plains who have
suffered crop losses in either 1990 or 1991. PCG
undcrsLands lhat this item pertains mainly 10 the value
a producer could receive from shifting the crop to a
secondary usc. A good example would be someone
growing oranges inlcnded for sale as fresh fruit. If
the producer is then involved in a disaster situation
that prevents the oranges from being so~d. as frcs_h
fruil, he could elect to have the remamtng frutt
squeezed for juice. The value of the juice from those
oranges would then be considered the secondary
crop value.
Net insuruncc indemnity is the difference
between the amount of a producer's insurance claim
and the amount of the insurance premium the
producer paid. The resulting figure will then be
alkted to lhe expected gross disaster payment due the
producer. If the sum of these two items is less lhan
the farm's expected gross income lhen no adjustment
will be made to the disaster payment. If lhe sum of
lhe two is greater than the ·farm 's expected gross the
disaster payment will be reduced by lhe amount of
difference between the two.
J)eficicncy puymcnts will figure prominently in
the disaster payment calculation. The disaster
legislalion slates that a producer may not draw a
disaster payment and a deficiency payment on the
same p(!und 'or bushel of a crop:1n'iimple terms a
·'Producer who ' received a · def~ency pa;rme~t. on
40.000 pounds in either 1990 or 1991 and tsehgtble
for a disaster payment on 20,000 pounds wtll have a
value for deficiency payments received on lhc 20,000
pounds eligible for disaster deducted from his final
disaster payment.
The deficiency paymcnl value will be derived by
multiplying the tolal pounds eligible for disaster
payments by lhe applicable national factor. 'The result
of this calculalion will provide the actual number of
pounds lhat will be multiplied by the final deficiency
payment rate to come up wilh the necessary reduction
for duplication of disaster and deficiency benefits.
l•"miiA l~mcr,.ency l..uuns will also figure inlo
the disaster programs calculations. To the best of
PCG's knowledge 1990 disaster payments due to
producers who received ;m emergency loan in that
year will be reduced by the amount of the loan. For
1991 producers who file for an emergency loan from
FmHA will have the loan reduced by wnatever
amount !hey receive from a disaster payment
All producers arc encouraged to get their disaster
paperwork started as quickly as possible. Additional
questions about the program can be answered by
county ASCS officials however lhey arc 'urging lhat
producers gather as much in formation as possible
before making lhe trip down to the ASCS office.

The kind of weather we will see;
By watching experts on 1V,
Or teaming what we have in store
By turning to our native lore:
A famous groundhog known as Phil
Will leave his burrow on the hill,
And If his shadow will be cast.
Then winter's cold Is bound to last.
It's just for fun, yet we recall
That superstition grips us all.
Don't let it overshadow you,
But keep faith's messages in view;
!'or rain or shine, your true reward
Will come from trusting in the Lord.

LUBBOCK, Friday, January 24, 1992
Confusion.
That is what inany High Plains producers arc
feeling whenever thcr sit down and try to figure out
how the 1990·1991 disaster program will affect their
operations. With sign-up scheduled to begin
February 3 man;r arc wondering how the program is
going to be admmistercd.
Those questions can now be answered by county
Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service
(ASCS) employees who completed their own training
session for the new program this past week.
Producers can now get some of the answers they
need to get their disaster applications in the works.
ASCS officials are advising that producers who lhink
they are eligible for disaster assislance, in either 1990
or 1991, get their paperwork started as soon as
.
possible.
"ASCS is encouraging producers who intend to
file a disaster' claim to do so all, soon as possible."
noteS Donald Johnson, Executive Vice President of
Lubbock-based Plains Colton Growers (PCG). "We
have been told that when the sign-up period ends
March 13, any applications that have not been
completed will be dropped."
One exception to lhis is that producers waiting
for production evidence will be given two weeks to
gather that information.
PCG has also received several questions about
what will happen ir two different producers had
disasters on the same farm, one in 1990 and one
1991, and both submit disaster applications. ASCS
officials have explained lhat when lhis occurs bolh
producers will be notified and it will be necessary for
!hem to agree to withdraw, voluntarily, one of the
applications before the March 13 cut-off date. If
neither of the applications is wilhdrawn by March 13
ASCS will kick bolh the applications out
Some of the questions most commonly asked
about the disaster program have to do with issues
such as how 1hin1,1s like secondary crop value, net
insurance indemmty, FmHA Emergency Loans and
the 1991 deficiency payment will be handled in lhe
disaster payment calculation.
.
With information about the program still
somewhat sketchy at !his time PCG has received the
following information aboutlhesc items.
According to the Amerj~an Cancer Society. one out ol nine women
in the United States will develop
breast cancer sometime in her
lifelime. It is currently estimated
that over 37 ,ooo women die each
year as the result of breast can·
cer.
Ninety percent of breast can·
cars are diagnosed by women or
their physicians finding a lump In
the breast. Women who are di·
agnosed with a lump large
enough to feel have a 50 percent
five year survival rate. A woman
who is diagnosed as having
breast cancer by mammo·
graphy, before a lump can be
felt, has a 97% five year survival
rate and a 90% 10 year survival
rate.
A mammogram can detect a
even
cancer this small,
before It can be felt.
