Santa Fe plans to
drop another line
ALPINE - Brewster County.
Judge Tom Connor said he has
learned that Santa Fe Railroad
plans to abandon or sell another
railroad line in Texas and Oklahoma.
Earlier this year, Santa Fe said it
was taking under study the abandonment of its rail line from east
of San Angelo to the city of
Presidio. That line runs through
Alpine and east of Maria.
From correspondence Jie
received recently from Foard
County, Connor said it appears
that Santa Fe also plans to sell or
abandon its rail line from
Cherokee, Okla., to Sweetwater.
That route runs through Crowell,.
the Foard County Seat
Connor said he was angered by
the news, because Santa Fe officials didn't mention its plan to
abandon that route, when area officials met with Santa Fe officials
in San Angelo recently about the
abandonment of the San Angeloto-Presidio rail route.
For Marfa ISD

approved
MARFA - For the first time
since the career ladder was state
mandated about six years ago, the
performance of Marfa school district teachers will be reviewed by
sn outside appraiser.
That decision csme following a
split vote by Marfa school board
members Tuesday night
Superintendent Carl Robinson
recommended that the board appoint the district's three principals, the district curriculum
director and himself to the appraisal committee.
He added that hiring an outside
appraiser could be an option as
could dropping himself from the
committee.
• Trustee Britt Webb said he
favored hiring an outside appraiser and leaving Robinson off
the committee.
"We might have a better picture"
of the teacher appraisals, he said,
of the outside appraiser, but
added that it might not change appraisals at all.
Webb told Robinson that he had
nothing against Robinson's appraisals, but leaving Robinson off
the committee would "get you out
of the hot seat."
"I appreciate that," Robinson
told Webb.
Board President Glenn Garcia
said that if the board was looking
for new blood on the committee,
the district's new curriculum
director and elementary principal
both were new to the district this
year.
Webb made a motion to hire an:
outside appraiser and appoint tbe
three principals and curriculum to
the committee. That motion was
seconded by Trustee Wally
Harkey. '
Trustee Mark Kemp added his
vote to that line up, while Trustees
Lionel Salgado and Lonnie Mendoza voted against the measure.
Garcia votedforWebb's motion,
but said he didn't like to spend the
$4,000 to $6,000 outside tbe school
district for the outside appraiser.
Thefinalvote was 4-2.
Trustee Aurora Acosta was absent from tbe meeting.
Another split vote came following a discussion of a school board
policy regarding the use of tobacco products by employees on campus.
In approving the district's policy
manual several weeks ago, the
board, apparently without their
k n o w l e d g e , amended and
tightened the district's tobacco
use policy.
By state law, students aren't permitted to smoke at school.
Last year the policy allowed
employees to use tobacco
products on campus but only in
areas designated by principals.

Yep, we're off to what's shaping up to be a dazzling and controversial
football season this year on all levels.
The Dallas Cowboys on Sunday wbn theirfirstgame in what seems
like a decade, pun intended.
The collegiate Southwest Conferencefootballalliance is filling apart.
'The Sul Rosa State University Lobos, to quote Ray Hendryx, general
manager of Alpineradiostations KVLF-AM and KALP-FM, 'snatched
defeatfromdie jaws of victory" on Saturday in their fourth-quarter loss
to Howard Payne.
Midland Lee on Friday got skunked by die weenies from El Paso
Andreas, and Mojo, the defending state champs Odessa Permian
Panthers, may not get to defend their title amid allegations they violated
UIL rules by starting pre-season practice too early. (Maybe that explains
their powerhouse performances over the years.)
What's more, all tri-county football teams were winners last Friday in
their season-opening games - the Maria Shorthorns, the Alpine Bucks
and the Marathon Mustangs - or at least they weren't losers, in die case
of tbe Presidio Blue Devils-Fort Davis Indians 6-0 tie.
Congratulations to all teams and coaches.
The game of this week has got to be the Shorthorns-Bucks match-up, a
rivalry that dates back to the 1920s.
Tbe Shorthorns led that series up untilfiveor six years ago, when the
Bucks pulled ahead in wins.
The game will be played at 8 p.m. Friday at Martin Field in Maria.
Now it's normal for a newspaper to take an editorial stand in a column
like this, on this, the editorial or opinion page.
So we'll make our pick of the game winner, keeping in mind this is an •
election year with the politicians - and their promises - out in force,
procuring your vote.
If we're talking to folks from Maria, die Shorthorns will be victorious;
jf we're talking to folks from Alpine, the winner will be the Bucks ...
Letters to the editor
Editor:
As a frequent reader of The Big Bend Sentinel, I'd like to make a
modest informational contribution regarding a recent item in your
newspaper. The article that appeared in your August 30th edition
entitled "Houston financier gets ranch but another bidder omitted" may
leave a somewhat confusing impression in the minds of your readers. A
brief reading of your article, given its title, might suggest that less than
the full, required set of statutory procedures for the sale of the Cibolo
Creek Ranch was followed by the Presidio County Probate Court. In
fact, under court supervision, every necessary step in the purchase and
confirmation proceedings was taken and all timing and notification
requirements were adhered to or exceeded.
For your readers' information the relevant circumstances are these:
(1) In November 1988, the undersigned was determined by the
Presidio County Probate Court to be the successful bidder for tbe
Cibolo Creek Ranch. One of the unsuccessful bidders contested the
<Caatev4dmBU.<' • ; < " • '
• •
• • " T-v-;i'<•••• v•
(2) Subsequently, after litigation in the courts, the ranch again became
available to anyone who wished to approach the court and propose to
purchase it. Exceptformyself, no one ever did.
(3) On August 24, after extensive negotiations with the representatives
of the Russell White estate, and after posting all required court notices
and exceeding the required notice period, the Probate Court elected to
approve the White estate's application to exchange the title to the ranch
for a release by me from every extensive liabilities.
(4) On August 31, after again exceeding the required notice period,
tbe Probate Court confirmed tbe proceedings initiated on August 24
and finalized this matter which has taken very nearly two years to close.
No other prospective purchaser elected to appear at either of the
hearings and oppose the sale.
Given these facta, I believe that it is not entirely fair to remotely imply
that any and all persons desiring to purchase the Cibolo Creek Ranch
received less than a full opportunity to do so or that there was any
imperfection in the Probate Court'sfinaldisposition of this matter.
I look forward with great pleasure to the time which I shall spend in
Presidio County and to the continuation of the many frienships that I
haveformedin the area.
It would be a service to all of us who have been involved with the
Cibolo Creek Ranch if the complex record of its sale were set straight
TJiank youforyour kind attention.
Very sincerely,
John B. Poindexter

The law gives property owners the right to
protest actions concerning their property tax
appraisals. You may follow these procedures
if you have a concern about:
• the value placed on your property;
• exemptions that may apply to you;
• cancellation of agricultural appraisal;
• whether your property is taxable;
• which local governments should be taxing
your property; or
• you think the appraisal district has done
something else that adversely affected you.
Informal Review:Anyone who files a timely protest
will be given the opportunity to resolve problems
informally prior to formal hearings with the ARB.
