Amarillo city commissioners accepted the third bid for pumps for three water wells at the Westex site in Randall County south of Bushland. H. H.

The plans foresee about three million gallons per day extra. The commission also approved over 30 overhead street lights in northeast Amarillo and agreed to pay about 300 dollars in delinquent taxes on property bought at tax sale near The Children’s Home. A charter amendment to extend the city commission to seven members was proposed by the Forest Hill Civic Club for the April 1 election.
