The Texas Supreme Court ruled the state holds title to minerals in 3 901 000 acres of school land, mostly in oil regions, permitting the state to claim one half bonus rentals and royalties from future development. Current and future revenues could total millions, with initial receipts ranging from 500 000 to 1 000 000 and potential earnings to about 20 000 000 for the school fund. The Magnolia Petroleum Co challenged a Reeves County lease, and the decision affects ongoing school fund income.
