better inform you, the postal custo-
mer of mail service in your area.)
The most common complaint re-
ceived is delayed mail. There are
several factors that can and do delay
your mail. The main factor is human
error. But, not all errors are
attributable to the postal employees.
You, the customer, can reduce many
of the errors before they ever enter

Salute To
Texas
Telecast
The Houston Livestock Show and
Rodeo has announced the live broad-
cast of its Sesquicentennial event on
KUHT-TV, Houston’s Channel 8.
The three-hour spectacular, titled
“Texas and Houston - 150 years of
greatness," will air live Tuesday,
Feb. 18 beginning at 8 p.m.
“We planned a tremendous birth-
day party for Texas and Houston
and we didn’t want to limit it to the
45,000-person capacity of the Astro-
dome. With the decision to work with
KUHT-TV, we’re able to share this
very special event with the greater
Houston area community,” said
Dan Gattis, Houston Livestock Show
and Rodeo general manager.
Emceed by Mac Davis and featur-
ing a 4,000-member cast, the extra-
vanza is topped off by a full-length
Willie Nelson concert. The Houston
Symphony Orchestra, a 1,000-voice
choir, marching bands and drill
team units will add to the re-enact-
ment of Texas’ and Houston's histor-
ies.
Special effects and props include a
rocket belt pack man, a moving
train, a gushing oil derrick and a
tremendous indoor fireworks dis-
play.
Due to the scope of the Sesquicen-
tennial event, no rodeo will be held
during this Feb. 18 performance.
Rodeo competition begins Wednes-
day, Feb. 19 and continues through
March 2. The livestock show begins
Feb. 15 with horse show competition
starting Wed., Feb. 12. All events
conclude March 2.
Dora
Unit
Meets
The Dora Unit of the Industry
United Methodist Church met in the
educational building on Thursday
night, February 6, at 7:30 p.m.
Thirteen members and two visitors
were present.
Irene Mieth presented the pro-
gram entitled “The Invitation." The
purpose was to focus upon the call to
be active participants in God’s
covenant relationship, the role of
disciples of Jesus Christ and the
disciplines for Christian service, the
hymn, “Lord, Speak To Me, That I
May Speak" was sung. In closing, all
members were invited to come and
dip their hands in a basin of water,
which symbolizes the cleansing
which comes through faith in Jesus
Christ. The person next in line
participating in the servant role,
dried her hands with a towel saying:
“Take this towel with you as a
reminder that we are servants and
disciples of Christ."
Sharon Spiess, president, presided
over the business meeting. New year
books, were handed out and discus-
sed.
In old business, the flower beds
that the Dora Unit cares for and the
cleaning of the old church were
discussed. It was voted upon to get
someone for the job. Members were
reminded of the dishcloths, pot
scratchers and necklaces for sale.
Personal questionnaires were filled
out to help secret friends in selecting
gifts during the year.
In new business, Waldine Rudloff,
UMW treasurer, reminded mem-
bers of their pledge cards and
pledges. As Mission Coordinator
Waldine also encouraged the unit to
have study courses. Martie Wald is
planning to conduct a study course
entitled “Pro-Earth” on March 20,
1986 from 7-8 p.m. The Dora Unit is
planning to invite the Bertha Circle
and their families for a covered dish
dinner on April 6 before the UMW
meeting. There were 248 sick calls
reported. The meeting adjourned
with the Lord’s Prayer.

emphasized since all mail is sorted
according to zip codes initially.
Next, please use the entire address
such as P. O. Box 506, Rt. 1, Box 210
or 111 Main St., #12. Please do not
take it for granted that the delivery
carrier or clerk has memorised
every addressee. Another must is
your return address. This Is neces-
sary in the event that your letter is
undeliverable as addressed. Above
all, write legible. Once you have
checked all of the above, check your
postage. Is it enough? Is the
envelope securely sealed? Are there
any sticky substances on the en-
velope such as glue or tape that may
cause it to stick to another letter?
These may seem like insignificant
points, but they can delay that
important letter to your bank, utility
company or even your grandmother.
While we are on the subject of
correct addresses, please notify all
of your correspondents of your
correct address. Many large com-
panies have address correction
forms on their statements. If not,
take a few minutes to write them a
note, or, ask your post office for a
Change of Address card, PS form
3576.
This next point is directed to the
local businesses. Be sure you have
your customer's correct address
before you send them their bill.
Again, do not take it for granted that
the postal employee knows where
they live. With your cooperation, we,
the US Postal Service, can improve
our service.
If you have any questions, com-
plaints, items of postal interest, etc.,
please feel free to contact: Postmas-

Sweeney’s
Review
Board
Interviews
Applicants
A review board appointed by
Congressman Mac Sweeney assem-
bled Saturday, January 25, to inter-
view high school applicants to U. S.
military academies. The ambitious
young people came from all over
Sweeney's 22 county congressional
district to Victoria for a full day of
interviews.
The military academies generally
prefer to receive a list of the top
applicants so that they can select
their own appointees. “I disagree
with that system of letting the
military academy admissions offi-
cer make that decision," said Swee-
ney. “Hence, we formed an Aca-
demy Review Board to choose these
young people who will be entrusted
with the security of our nation,” he
said.
The Review Board consisted of 15
community leaders from across the
congressional district. The Review
Board’s task is to nominate five of
the 20 finalists, selected by Con-
gressman Sweeney, for appointment
to the Army, Navy, and the Air
Force academies. Because of the
calibre of the students from our
district, Sweeney said, “Members of
the Review Board told me that
deciding between two candidates
was one of the hardest things they
had ever done.”
“It was refreshing to meet these
future leaders and shapers of South
Texas and our country,” said Swe-
eney who personally spent time with
each of the applicants. “Every
student I spoke with showed a level
of intelligence, inner strength and
enthusiasm which made me proud to
be in the same room with them,”
Sweeney added.
The final selection of the Academy
Review Board will be announced
next week. Those individuals select-
ed by the Academy Review Board
will be nominated by Congressman
Sweeney for military academy ap-
pointments. An academy student
receives a free education valued at
$100,000; in turn he or she commits
to serving in the armed forces for 6
years.
The interviews lasted from 9:00
a.m. until 6:00 p.m.
