Texan Loses Life but Saves Wife at Flood Crossing
In Belton Texas on a Friday afternoon amid black skies and rising water from upstream rains, R S Woelfel and his wife attempted a low water crossing on the Lampasas River near Stillhouse Hollow Dam. The husband shoved his wife to safety from the pickup cab as a wall of water hit, saving her but he vanished with the truck, believed swept downstream. The wife survived after hours in the current and found a farm house to call for help. The search continued Saturday as waters receded.

Silence, Not Hurrahs For Returning Vets
A veteran columnist notes that Vietnam returnees often face national silence rather than celebrations. Many ex-servicemen recall parades and cheers from past wars, while today they encounter limited public attention, mixed respect, and job difficulties.
