Pastor praises police
EShar, Senfb Bait Leader.
Of the hundred* of cat* on the Mock,
it i* only the one that get* itself stuck up
in the tree and ha* to be rescued that
catche* the attention of the puMic-
perhap* even get* it* picture in the
new* media.
Out of the hundred* even thousand*
of good deed* that the officer* of our
police department perform every day.
few if any get before the eye of the
public But let there be one misdeed,
and there i» no end to the public
exposure.
I, for one, wish to compliment and
express my appreciation for the service
rendered by our police officer*. At
the same lime 1 must admit that I do not
recognize faithful service a* readily a* I
should.
However. I have had an occasion for
my appreciation to be stirred and ex-
pressed.
My automobile was stolen from the
parking lot of our church not two
minutes after I had stepped from it.
Since I was only going to be out of the
car for perhaps five minutes, I regret-
fully left the key in the ignition. (Let
this be a lesson for all!) I heard the car
being started and apparently moving.
By the time I could look outside 1
watched a* someone, unknown, drove it
away at a high rate of speed.
My appreciation for the police de
partment and it* officer* came from the
fact that within two hour* after the car
was stolen, I had it back intact.
It was because of the alert and
prompt attention given to my need by
officers cruising the local streets that I
could breathe a sigh of relief.
Sure, there may at time* be injustice
and sometimes lack of effort by indivi-
dual officer*, but why not give credit
where credit is due for faithful service
rendered?
To the department and the officer?
who came to my aid I say a hearty
"Thank you!"

Barnes says ‘slow down’
Editor, South Belt Leader:
As a resident of this area. I have a
concern which 1 wonder if other* share:
the speed zones by our schools, espe-
cially those on Hughes Road.
In my experience traveling through
these zone*. I have been honked at,
glared at. passed as if I were standing
still and in general made to feel I am at
fault for observing the school zone's
speed requirements! It is true that at
times, when this has occurred, there
have been no children in sight but the
lime and the speed posted on the sign
were still in force.
My children are mostly grown (my
last child is in high school), but 1 still
care about others’ children and my
community. I have been a part of PTAs
in many way* and for many years. In
one PT A. in cooperation with the police
department, we helped with a similar
problem by authorizing the crossing
guards, school patrol and concerned
parents to take down the license num-
ber of offenders in school zones. After
these numbers were turned in, a nice
letter was sent by the PT A reminding
the offender of the violation and sug-
gesting that had a patrolman been
present they would be receiving a ticket
rather than a letter. People in the area
became more respectful of the schoo,
zones!
I am proud of the concern which has
been shown by this community in other
matters and it is my hope that we car
share concern about this one. too. We
too often complain about our younger
citizens' disobedience* of the law but
might it be possible they’re following
our example? If we expect them to obey
laws, we ought also to expect ourselves
to obey the school zones as posted, even
if NO ONE is in sight.
Children are wonderful creatures!
They are full of life and enthusiasm
most of the time. . .and careless.
Would it take the loss of one of these
lives or injury for us to sit up and take
responsibility for our speed in school
zones? 1 hope not. Let's slow down
before that happens.
Sincerely,
Clarice K. Baine*

Sagemont seeks candidates
Continued from Page 1
oppose assessments.
She said she wants those voting to
have a clear choice.
Thus far, an election has not been
set, but it is hoped the election could be
held in January.
The club ha* just completed circula-
ting a petition signed by over 900
Sagemont homeowners (over half the
residents) which calls for a new election
to the Maintenance Committee. The
last election was held 15 years ago, and
two of those elected at that time have
since moved from the area.
Sagemont homeowners have not paid
an annual maintenance assessment
since the subdivision was annexed by
the City of Houston.
McFarland said there have been
some Sagemont residents who favor a
small assessment (in the neighborhood
of $10 per year per homeowner) for
esplanade maintenance and possible
additional security for the subdivision.
.........""W" ' t...... —
If each homeowner paid $10 annually,
the committee would have nearly
$20,000 to use toward these purposes.
On the other hand. McFarland points
out, there are some homeowners in the
subdivision who oppose paying a main-
tenance assessment and who feel those
maintenance duties are the city’s re-
sponsibility.
McFarland said if the candidates can
represent the two points of view, then
Sagemont homeowners will actually be
voting on whether they favor the as-
sessments, and she says she and other
members of the civic club want to know
how the subdivision's homeowners feel
on the issue.
Anyone desiring to be a candidate for
the Maintenance Committee should
contact one of the following three civic
club board members: McFarland at
481-6113; Carol Fielder at 481-2744; or
Judy Etheridge at 481-1994.
Candidates will be introduced at the
civic club’s Christmas dinner on Dec.
