Llano Narrowly Misses Severe Weather Outbreak
Llano County avoided the worst of a regional storm system but recorded 1.35 inches of rain raising May total to 4.27 inches at the Llano weather station. Upstream floods pushed the Llano River into a foamy chocolate brown surge near the dam as meteorologists traced the moisture from a system moving north from Mexico. The setup produced strong winds and brief thunderstorms before a gradual clearing was forecast.

Llano County Grants Grass Lease to Two Davises
Llano County commissioners discussed a five year grass lease signed in late 1971 with A E Davis of Brown County and A E Davis Jr of Concho County. The 17,388.6 acre lease begins August 1 1972 and ends July 31 1977 at 80 cents per acre yearly totaling $69 554.40. The Davises may renew under same terms if they match higher bona fide offers. Tax coverage remains a concern as the lease barely covers land taxes. Moore Johanson and Frida city manager George Rogers attend a water pollution control seminar in College Station.
