Beaumont turns dump into picnic area and marina
The former smelly landfill in Beaumont Texas has been repurposed as a picnic site and marina on the Neches River. Public Works Director Wilbur Balmer says a new compacting landfill method reduced fires subsidence and maintenance while allowing rapid filling of the flood plain. The city plans to expand with another 500 acres as the current 500-acre tract nears capacity in three years.

Long distance rate changes show shift to more operator time
The proposal increases charges for operator assisted calls while lowering some station-to-station rates. A 350 mile daytime station-to-station call would drop from $1.10 to 93 cents if dialed, or $1.25 with operator help, and 66 cents after 5 PM. Person-to-person would rise to $2.30 from $1.90, as Southwestern Bell cites rising Texas wages as justification.
