Graebner to decide on year as Chamber president
Charles Graebner, president of the Chamber of Commerce, is weighing another year at the helm after a push from a committee of business leaders. The organization has grown strong under his leadership, with an annual election set for January 14 and a nominating committee to name a ticket among directors who choose officers later. Separately, in Taylor, Texas, the Katy railroad selects a site near the I G N and Katy tracks for a new $20 000 passenger station after final plans and contract letting.
