Texas School Finance Bill Clears Critical Test In House
In Austin the $1 billion school finance bill survived a pivotal Senate or House vote, with sponsors Dan Kubiak and DeWitt Hale defending the measure against an Evans amendment that would shorten its six year span. Debate continues as 21 amendments await consideration while Hobby aides attend a dinner. The Senate already approved related measures creating two new county courts at law in Bexar and curbing annexation powers of cities, with all amendments accepted.

Not Enough School Bill For Edgewood Says Madla
Rep Frank Madla charged Gov Briscoes school finance proposal is inadequate for Edgewood and other hard pressed districts. He told Briscoes aide Charles Purnell the measure HB 1718 would give Edgewood only about ninety dollars per student and miss compensatory education while not lowering the 45 to 1 student teacher ratio.
