KSTAHI.ISIIKD MARCH I. 1 KT :i
Musings
By J. Troy Hickman
nil: ANT IK.NT
M ARI.NKR
I was spinning a yarn down-
town the other day. My audience
.shifted his eyes and inadea move
as if to flee as soon as he could.
1 let him go.
Way back In high school, an
Knglish teacher made me read
The Ancient Mariner, a poem
by Coleridge. I'm glad she did.
Fifty years later, I sometimes
see my self in the role of The
Ancient Mariner.
The old boy in this story was
a sailor who had been the only
survivor of a shipwreck, lie
had spent long days at sea, a-
lone on a drifting boat. The or-
deal had made him a little daffy ,
and when he finally got home,
he became a village nuisance.
He had a compulsion to tell
his story to everyone, all in
detail. He had a skinny hand
with which he gripixxl the vic-
tim's arm, and a glittery eye
with which he hypnotized him,
until he was as helpless as a
bird is said to be before a snake.
(me day he seized ti|x>n a poor
fellow who was on his way to a
wedding, and he held the Wedding
Ciuest so long with his direful
tale, his skinny hand and his
glittery eye, that the Wedding
Ciuest missed the wedding. 1
know it can be argued tliat he
was better off for missing it,
but that's another story.
Incidentally, the poem has a
tremendous rhythm in its lines,
so that you catch yourself pat-
ting your feet as you repeat
their music:
"Water, water, everywhere,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, everywhere,
And not a drop to drink!''
Head it sometime. It is better
titan counting sheep to go to
sleep on.
I p to now, I have always i-
dentlfled with the Wedding(iuest.
Many a time have I crossed to
the other side of the street, or
suddenly remembered an im-
portant engagement, in order to
avoid Phe Ancient Mariner.
Sometimes, as a pastor, it has
been my lot to hear someone
out to the bitter end, when I
might not have done so from
pure grace.
Persons who are shutln for a
long time with illness, some who
have handicaps that limit their
contacts and interests, or folk
who have lived too a long a time
in the same place, are all can-
didates for the Ancient Mariner
role.
Formal education doesn't have
much to do with it, for some of
the most tedious people I have
every known have been supposed
to lie educated. Kgotistical per-
sons, by whom we mean |ar-
sons who are not sure of them-
selves and deeply need to be
accepted and admired, are also
tempted to fall into the pattern.
In fact, aren't we all'.'
The old mariner can be male
or female. If the new unisex
movement catches on, it will
also provide some more re-
cruits, no doubt.
Now, as a retired man soon
to be sixty-eight. I am begin-
ning to like the old mariner
better, In my softer moods to-
ward him, 1 think, "Well, some-
one now and then ought to stop
and listen to the old guy!"
Still and all, those older people
who have lots to tell and can sum
it up in a few terse but spicy,
direct but loose-hanging phrases,
seem always to have hearersand
to be welcome in the most ex-
clusive watering places, be they
street corners or drawing rooms.
A good raconteur can i«ck
miles and years into a sentence.
The second sentence and you are
with him, the third and you laugh,
the fourth and he is through,
leaving you wishing he would go
on. You enjoy the gaps as much
as the words, and what he did
not say seems more meaningful
than his ideas did. His tribe is
all too small.
The Ancient Mariner isa com-
mon species, all too abundant
and found everywhere, lie tran-
scends race, color, clime and
culture, one of the endeavors
I stall set for my retirement is
that, if possible, I shall not
add to his number.

Bastrop Scouts
Help Open New
Scout Camp
The summer of 1972 saw the
opening of a new scout camp at
LCRA Lost Pines Boy Scout
Camp, Bastrop. The newly com-
pleted camp was occupied for
the first time this year with the
beginning of summer camp in
June. With the completion of the
facilities just prior to Summer
camp, this new camp is consid-
ered as one of the finest Scout
camps in the country.
on hand to help break in the
new camp facilities were scouts
Randal Barnard, Mike Owens,
Greg Tate, David Spooner and
William S|H)oner and scoutmas-
ter, Marvin Bartsch, all from
Bastrop Scout troop 187.
After a one week stay at the
new camp, the scouts are con-
vinced that the new camp is
great and lots of fun. Mr.
Bartsch reports that the camp
is indeed ideal in every scout-
ing respect in so far that scouts
can get the most and the best
scouting from these new facil-
ities.
At the end of the week long
stay at camp the scouts returned
home with a total of two ranks
advancements and sixteen merit
badges and all five scouts re-
ceived the honor camper patch.
Tliis is indeed a praiseworthy
accomplishment for the scouts
and a fine new camp.

An official Texas Historical
Marker for the City of F.lgin
will be erected on July 1, 1972,
It was announced today by Mrs.
W. K. Maynard chairman of the
Bastrop County Historical Sur-
vey Committee.
The marker will be placed at

roads:
"CITY OF ELGIN
CENTENNIAL, 1872-1972

tral Railroad built through this
area in 1971, town was platted
(1872) and named for Robert
M. Klgin (1825-1913)- H&T.C.
Land Commissioner.
Brick and tile, for which Klgin
is widely known, have been chief
products here since 1882 when
Thomas O'Connor (1846-1937)
made hand-molded, sun-dried
brick, other manufacturing and
agricultural products bolster the
economy.
Settler of six ethnic origins
have made the city a center of
cultural richness, with good
homes, churches and schools."
The marking of local historic
sites and landmarks is part of
the Texas State Historical Sur-
vey Committee's program of
preservation activities. Thtse
include archeological investiga-
tions, small museum consulta-
tion, and administering the Na-
tional Historic Preservation Act

Bastrop County
Gets 8350,393
From Oil & Gas
Sale of Bastrop County oil and
gas production accounted for
$550,593 of the county 'seconontic
output for 1971, according to a
study by Texas Mid-Continent
Oil \ Gas Assn.
In producing 108,891 barrels
of crude oil and 1.1 billion cu.
ft. of natural gas, the county
ranked 178th in Texas. Value
of its crude oil was $383,290;
natural gas value was $107,297.
The county is among 190 Texas
counties with oil and gas pro-
duction value topping $100,000,
although 211 counties produce
oil and gas.
"Bastrop County oil and gas
wells made a significant contri-
bution to Texas' sliare of the
nation's energy needs last year,
but growing demand is sapping
reserves In Texas faster titan
they can be replaced," Robert
A Buschman, Association presi-
dent, said. "As fewer new fields
are discovered, due to less drill-
ing, the continuing strong econ-
omy and tax base of many Texas
counties may now depend on up-
dating Texas oil conservation
laws to encourage wider use of
new recovery technology," he
said.
The Association study showed
that I la strop County farmers,
ranchers, and other royalty own-
ers received $08,824 as their
share of the production.
The county's wells generated
$17,632 in crude oil production
taxes for state government and
$12,547 in state taxes on natural
gas. Oil and gas producers spent
$431,274 In drilling eleven wells
in die county last year, $15.1,012
of which was lost in drilling four
dry holes.
Texas Employment Commis-
sion figures showed 29 oil and
gas industry employees in the
county last year, with an annual
jxiyroll of $70,020.
Warning!!
The City of Bastrop has purchased a
Radar Unit and can now determine
accurate speed without pursuing the
violator — Please observe the speed
limits so you will not be given a ticket
for speeding.

Pine\ Creek Philosopher Says
Latest Public Opinion Poll
Shows Mistrust Has Gone Wild
Kditor's note: The Plriey
Creek Philosopher on his John-
son grass farm on Piney starts
out on one subject and winds up
on another in his letter this week.
Dear editar;
This is supposed to l>e the
,ige of mistrust, half the people
say they don't believe wliat the
government says, the government
says half the time it can't be-
lieve what the iieople say, young
people don't trust older |>eople,
older iieople don't trust young
people, no country really trusts
another ountry. and so it goes.
But I guess the climax was
reai lied week before last in that
public opinion poll which showed
McGovem leading Humphrey in
i aliforiiia b. a lop-sided ma-
jority only to have the actual
voting result in just a slim mar-
gin.
But when that liappened, the
pollsters had a ready answer.
They said the poll was right
but a lot rf voters voted the
other way just to prove the poll
wa s w r< rng.
\ ou mean to say we've carried
mistrust so far that there are
now a lot of people in this coun-
try who, when asked by a poll-
ster how they're going to vote,
will tell him wrong just for
tin imusement of seeing their
iniwer turn ip is an inaccur-
ate statistic '
i hi-, keeps up and it'll iust
about put the public opinion polls
out of business.
To change the subject, I have
discovered that there was one
piece of information President
Nixon brought back from his
trips to China and Russia that
has gone almost unnoticed. In
promoting trade with the two
count! res, he said one of the
things they're particularly in-
terested in buying is computers.
This is encouraging news. It's
great news, \ny time a country
needs more computers it means
it's got more problems than it
can soive. You take a country
tliat's still adding on its fingers
and using a pencil and long di-
vision to figure up his national
debt and life is still simple and
orderly there, but when the
problems get so big only a com-
puter can handle them, look out.
I don't object to the use of
computers, what I object to is
thinking up problems big enough
to require one.
Yours faithfully,
J. A.
