School Budget Talks Highlight Pay Increases and Revenue
The board approved teacher and administrator pay raises with state guidance, boosting salaries by about 10 percent for non‑teaching staff and 9.4 percent for Supt. Johnny Clark, whose pay rises to 35,000 in September. Supplemental after‑school raises added 33,273, while overall salaries and social security total 12.0 million. The amended 1973‑74 budget shows expenses 195,453 over estimates, but unexpected revenue of 932,985 offsets deficits, lifting projected revenue from 18,438,000 to 19,370,985. Coach John Merritt's Ten football team has 49 games in the past five seasons.

Protest at Texas water board hearings over ship channel cleanup
At the Texas Water Quality Board session in Houston industry leaders protested new discharge limits for the Houston Ship Channel. Dissenting groups included Tenneco Shell Olin Lubrizol Southland Paper Mills and Petro Tex with City of Houston objecting to limits on Northside and Sims Bayou plants. Shell’s R G Dillard argued EPA standards should allow 1700 pounds BOD daily while the board proposed 1200. The panel says the cleanup advances Galveston Bay protection and notes BOD loads fell from 430000 pounds in 1968 to 110000 in 1973.

Probes include a 100000 transfer between funds, a controversial lease of a drug building, and potential conflicts linked to a golf course and concessions.
