Thanksgiving Fantasy and Pigeons in a Small Town
A humorous column recalls local characters and odd events including talk of a new gate, the police chief, a trip to J's hamburger shack, and a windy golf game with a large pigeon from the electric company. The writer muses on Thanksgiving plans with grandmothers in Arkansas and ends with a lighthearted gag about turning turnips and a request to help a hungry pigeon.

Burn injuries call for safety laws say Texas doctors
Six physicians from the Shrines Burns Institute and University of Texas Medical Branch urge Texas to pass safety standards to reduce burn injuries in children and at homes. They cite home accidents, flammable clothing, gasoline and gas water heaters as major causes and propose standards for flame proofing clothing, banning open gas space heaters, and safety norms for gas and water heaters. Legislative action requires collaboration among doctors, legislators, and industry leaders.
