No Maid Needed!
With II Children, Schwarzbach Home
Is Setting Of Love And Cooperation
A family who finds less need
than most to seek outside fun, who
finds little use for additional
household help, and who knows
what the word cooperation really
means is the L. B. Schwarzbach
family of 3330 Tangley.
Their fun and their spirit of co-
operation exists simply but em-
phatically among Larry, Jerry,
Mary Margaret, Jimmy, John, Mary
Helen, Mary Kate, Mary Beth, May
Anne, Tom and young Bill—the
couple’s 11 children.
Their ages, in the order of their
names, are 19, 18, 17, 14, 13, nine,
seven, five, four, three and seven
months.
The four-bedroom home houses
11 doses of love and affection and
a spirit of unselfishness, and those
words come from the one who
should know—the mother!
Besides being a busy mother at
home, Mrs. Schwarzbach finds time
to be president of the St. Vincent
de Paul Altar Society, to be active
as a trustee of the International
Federation of Catholic Alumnae, to
be an active volunteer worker in
St. Vincent's library, to be a mem-
ber of St. Vincent’s Mothers’ Club,
and to plan on once again joining
the mothers’ group at St. Thomas
University next year. Last year
she was inactive in the latter group,
since it was the first time in many
years she did not have a child in
that school.
The oldest child, Larry, will be a
junior student at St. Thomas Uni-
versity next year, and this summer
is a merchant seaman on his way
to South America to earn money
to help him through the university.
Second child, Jerry, has just fin-
ished his basic training at San
Diego, California, and is now sta-
tioned with the Marines at Ocean-
side in that state.
Mary Margaret will be a senior
at Incarnate Word next year, and
Jimmy enters St. Thomas as a
freshman. John, Mary Helen, Mary
Kate and Mary Beth all attend St.
Vincent’s.
OPS Gives Local
The parents (he’s credit manager
for Earle M. Jorgensen Steel Com-
pany and a native of Galveston
and she’s a native of Houston)
have one particular sport in com-
mon with all their children, ex-
cluding young Bill for the present,
and that is swimming. Jimmy and
John are particularly interested in
sports, Mrs. Schwarzbach said, and
Larry hopes to be a teacher.
The older children have worked
at least at part time jobs, and
each gives a specific helping hand
around the house, Mrs. Schwarz-
bach said. From that, she believes,
the many children have learned to
be unselfish with one another.
And as for birthdays, Mary Kate
arrived on Lincoln’s birthday and
little Bill on last Thanksgiving
day. Jerry’s birthday, August 31,
follows Mary Beth’s by iust one
day.
“Most of all,” Mrs. Schwarzbach
said, “I believe our truest bond and
our main basis of happiness is our
religion. It plays a big part in
all our lives and in our lives as a
family unit. I feel that from it we
derive our greatest happiness and
understanding.”
Merchants Info
On Price Control
The second in a series of com-
munity price clinics scheduled in
Houston by the District Office of
Price Stabilization was held Tues-
day at the American Legion Post
77 Hall, 5505 Kelvin Drive.
The three-hour clinic, sponsored
by the Village Association, was
staged for the benefit of merch-
ants and operators of consumer
services in the Southwest section.
“We are arranging these com-
munity clinics so that merchants
and businessmen can get first-
hand and full information on
government price regulations,”
Charles A. Winerich Jr., director
of the Houston OPS regulations.”
The OPS panel was headed by
Fred C. Hopkins, district price ex-
ecutive, and Rex Poston, district
enforcement director.
Other OPS representatives at
the meeting were Sam W. Davis,
head of the district economic an-
alysis branch; F. Owen Curson,
