will maintain ' optimum growth
when uged fP early dalf feeding.
His experiments are niknle on Holh

fed a limited whole mjilk schedule

at the same time.
/Great variability in i weight nnd

calves fed on four different gruel
mixtures. Dried whey was the
only milk constituent used in the
gruels. Calves fed.on 1 mited whole
milk were In better 'condition at
six months, and the cost was about
the same as for th'! gruel fed
calves.
No definite conclusions can be
drawn yet, according [to Anthony,

Forbidden In
Texas Waters
AUSTIN, March 24 —(&
A new plan to keep Louisi
ana shrimp boats out of Tex
as waters was sent back to
the House Game and Fish
committee after opponents of the
bill succeeded jin lacking on two
amendments on the House floor
yesterday.
The bill, by Senator Jimmy Phil
lips of Angleton, had the approval
of the governor and the state
game and fish commission. It ori
ginally would have allowed the
game and fish department to make
a survey each,year and issue com
mercial fishing licenses on the
basis of cstinmted edible marine
life available off the Texas Coast.
Rep. Miller Walker of Beau
mont, who sponsored the bill al
ready passed by the Senate, said
it would allow the commission to
keep Louisiana shrimp boats from
'invading Texas waters in large
numbers.
Ah amendment by Rep. Marshall
Bell of San Antonio changed the
license provisions to prohibit the
game and fish commission from
setting any duota on the dumber
of commercial Ashing licenses to
be issued each year. The amend-
'tnent, adopted 84-38, also would
allow each fishing boat, regardless
of size, to catch the same amount
of
Another amendment by Bell,
adopted 77-38, would prohibit tho
giwjuu add fish commission from
issuing Hcoiihcn on any priority
basis. Tho Vlglnul bill would havo
given present license holders top
pHhrity, j \ i id
Walker said the amendment
would allow Imuislnnn bonis to
set licenaesi es well as Texas
honts.
A move l)y the\ opponents to
recommit the bill to\ne State Af
fairs Gomml(:tee failed 71-58.
It was then recommitted to the
game nnd fish committee by a
voice vote. ‘! [ j . \

Proposal in House
For Division Of
University Fund
AUSTIN, March 24 —UP)—The
House yesterday in effect killed
one bill to tax natural gas and
gave new life to a proposal to
divide part of the university per
manent fund income among all-
state supported colleges.
This action came while legisla
tors were mulling over the latest
plan to solve the taxation-spending
issue. It was a suggestion that
only one-year appropriations be
made thia season, leaving tax talk
and future spending to a special
session next January. *
The tax bill was Rep. Derio Tu-
fares’ measure levying a cent and
n half on each 1,000 cubic feet of
natural gas,. It was sent to an un
favorable subcommittee by the
House revenue and taxation com
mittee. Tufares asked the House
to send it to the Committee on
highways and roads .The House re*
fused 85 to 50 and that virtually
finished the bill.
By a vote of 71 to 50, the lipase
granted Rep. James L. Norton’s
request to send the college fund
proposal to the committee on con
stitutional amendments, which had
sent it to an: unfriendly subcom
mittee. The action gave the pro
posed constitutional change a new
lease on life.
Gov. Beauford H. Jester had no
immediate recommendation on the
proposal voiced by Lt, Gov. Allan
Shivers yesterday to postpone fin- 1
kl decision oh spending and tax
ation until next year. He said it
deserved consideration and study.
