Braniff rebirth plan irks airlines across industry
American Airlines and at least three other carriers object to Braniff being folded into PSA under a BI-PSA reorganization. They argue bankruptcy court lack of jurisdiction and that the plan is incomplete for creditors to act, potentially leaving Braniff assets and leases unsettled as the case heads before Fort Worth judge John Flowers.

Odessa seeks relief as chuckholes persist on old streets
City street superintendent Don Coleman says prolonged moisture and heavy traffic have packed older Odessa streets with chuckholes. Temporary patches will be replaced when Dixie and University boulevards are resurfaced later this year. Extra crews from Christmas snowfalls cost about 1200 dollars, with patching materials around 500 dollars and brine near 1410 barrels used. If winter weather worsens, brine spending may exceed budget while University Street sees the worst wear.
