$1 Million Okayed for LBJ Grove
Washington AP A House bill would require taxpayers to pay $1 million for parking and facilities near a privately financed Lyndon Baines Johnson Memorial Grove. Rep Jim Wright says extra parking and an overhead walk way are needed for anticipated bicentennial visitors. Rep Robert Bauman disagrees, recalling prior promises not to use public funds. Private donations financed the grove. Congress would fund nearby public land facilities, not the grove itself.

Use Turkey To Stretch The Budget
A Texas Agricultural Extension Service foods and nutrition specialist from Texas A&M advises buying one freshly processed turkey and dividing it into four portions for meals. Each full leg serves a main course for four, while the breast roasted can feed up to eight. Freeze the portions, label them, and thaw in the refrigerator when ready to use to avoid spoilage.
