Third Session Fizzled as Governor Calls Fourth
The Texas 56th Legislature ended its third session with main funding bills undone. Gov. Price Daniel called a fourth session. House declined tax measures from joint committees while the Senate approved them. A fuel gas severance tax dispute persisted between chambers. An activity fee bill for state colleges passed both houses. A public access to beaches bill also cleared conference review.

Young Texans Face Three Day Waiting Rule For Marriage
Gov Daniel is expected to sign a bill requiring all boys under 21 and girls under 18 to wait three days after obtaining a license to marry. Licenses must be obtained with a parent or guardian present, prompting talk of cross border elopements. Oklahoma passes a similar measure, while debates on college funding persist as the Higher Education Commission halts new programs until money is available.
