He stressed that the clubs are urged to use their individual initiative to come up with ideas to be used in wel coming activities. W. O. (Bill) Davis of the Rotary Club, military affairs committee chairman for the Brazos County Chamber of Commerce, and Gus Lampe of the Kiwanis Club were assigned to work on the committee with Sandlin. Sandlin said he plans to contact all the service club representatives today, and hopes to have more con crete plans in the making before the end of the week. The National Guardsmen are scheduled to come home Tuesday, August 7. Sandlin expressed hope that the people of the community will line the sides of the highway to welcome them as they arrive. In all probability, according to Sandlin, the guardsmen will arrive from the Huntsville cutoff which connects with Highway 6 south of College Station. They are expected to arrive about 3 p.m. Mustering out is to take place on Aug. 9 for citizen-soldiers. Plans are also being made for a program to honor the guardsmen at that time, probably about 4:30 p.m. Tables may be set up near the National Guard Armory with re freshments available for guards men and their families. }®8I" Daniel Boone May Rove Once Again FRANKFORT, Ky. (A 5 )—Daniel Boone, who was always the roving kind during his lifetime, may be moving along again before the year is out. Gov. Bert Combs has indicated he wants to transfer the famed pioneer’s tomb to a more access ible tourist site in Frankfort. If that’s really Boone in the tomb, of course. At present Boone’s purported bones are in the city cemetery on a hill overlooking the Kentucky River. Ruses can’t get to the cem etery and the grave is hard to find. “You have here,” Combs told a civic gathering recently, “per haps the most fabulous figure in American history—and hidden from visitors.” “You have here,” says more than skeptic, “the bones of a slave. NSF Schedules Special Speakers Three special sp.eakers have been scheduled for National Science Foundation program participants here this summer. Dr. Robert H. Heller of the Uni versity of Minnesota will speak at 8 p.m. Thursday on “Earth Sci ences in the Secondary School.” Friday at 2 p.m., Dr. K. R. Tef- ertiller of the Department of Agri cultural Economics will discuss “Linear Programming Applied to Agricultural Economics. He will speak in the Chemistry Building, Room 231. “Solar Research” will be the top ic of Dr. John W. Evans of Sacra mento Peak Observatory, Sun Spot, N.M., Monday at 8 p.m. The public is also invited to this lec ture'in Room 113 of the Biological Sciences Building. Boone rests in peace in Missouri.” It was back in 1845 that the city cemetery board, promoting the new cemetery, arranged to have the bodies of Boone and his wife, Re becca, transferred from Marthas- ville, Mo., some 25 years after their deaths. A big parade and celebration followed and two bodies eventually were buried in the c e m e t e r y, topped by an impressive monu ment. The monument eventually was chipped to pieces by voracious sou venir hunters. The second or third monument—no one is certain which—contained a tall statue of Boone, complete with cbonskin cap and rifle. Earlier this century lightning struck a tree nearby and a heavy limb crashed into the statue. All that’s left today is the base of the monument. As for who is underneath, every one agrees that Rebecca arrived in 1845. But the argument that the wrong man came along still smol ders during otherwise orderly his torical society meetings. Combs is extremely interested in the touxist trade. He has decided the grave might do wonders for tourism if it were placed in the rear of the Capitol, atop a hill near Frankfort’s park or on the lawn of the old restored Capitol downtown. He even talks of building a na tional shx'ine around it. Most letter writers, however, want Daniel and Rebecca moved deeper into the Blue Grass coun try. Heavily favored is a site near Boonesboro State Park which in cludes Ft. Boonesboro where the old frontiersman once lived and fought.

(Photo by Robbie Godwin) DanieL State Water Backers Launch Conservation Campaign By VERN SANFORD Texas Press Association AUSTIN—Gov. Price Daniel and water conservation leaders are launching a campaign to win voter approval of Constitutional Amend ment No. 4 on the general election ballot Nov. 6. Daniel’s Statewide Water Con servation Committee will meet on Sept. 10 to map the campaign. Other statewide organizations are being uxged to join the effoid. This amendment would allow the Texas Water Development Boax’d to use part of its $100,000,000 wa ter loan fund to pay for the added height needed to fully utilize dam- sites in Texas. Story is this: When cities or the Federal government build reser voirs, there may not be enough demand for water in the area to build the dams to their fxxll height. Water studies have indicated that in 20 to 50 years, the full yield of all presently proposed reservoirs will be needed to supply the 21,- 000,000 Texans expected by the year 2010.
