Living with the law
I have heard that apartment prices are going up in the spring.
Will this affect me since I am already living in my apartment?
Probably not. The ultimate answer will depend on an individual’s
lease situation. Under a written rental contract or lease rent pay
ments are guaranted for the term stated therein. In the Bryan-
College Station area this is usually nine months. If your rental
contract-lease has expired, rent is guaranteed for at least 30 days.
This situation arises where a student-tenant continues to occupy that
apartment after the termination date specified in the lease. An oral
lease agreement may insure against increased rent, depending upon
the term of occupancy. In Texas, the law is such that an oral lease is
valid if the term is not in excess of one year. If the term of an oral
lease exceeds one year then that lease cannot be enforced by the
owner or the student-tenant. But, an oral lease for less than one year
is a valid agreement and rent is guaranteed for the agreed upon
period. In conclusion, the rental payment stated in the lease cannot
be increased or decreased during the specified term without the
consent of both the student-tenant and the owner. The student-
tenant need not sign a new lease providing for increased rent unless
he desires to do so. The student-tenant cannot be forced to agree to
increased rent by threats of eviction.

Sleep in next Sunday
WASHINGTON — Next Sunday
you’ll get back the hour you lost to
daylight- saving time last spring.
The country returns to six months
of standard time on the last Sunday
in October. Daylight time — an
idea first suggested to the United
States by Benjamin Franklin —
ends this year at 2 a.m. local time
Sunday, Oct. 29.
Franklin learned, while he was
ambassador to France, that Euro
peans saved money on lighting
shops and homes by setting their
clocks forward each summer.
It took a while for Franklin’s idea
to catch on. Congress first adopted
the concept during World War I as
an energy-saving measure and used
it again during World War II.
But it wasn’t until Congress
passed the Uniform Time Act of
1966 that the concept of setting
clocks forward an hour on the last
Sunday of April and ahead on the
last Sunday of October became an
annual ritual.

Mules laden with Blue Maguey pinas on their way to Cuervo's La Rojenaplant.
Since 1795weVe gathered our
Blue Magueys for Cuervo Gold
the gentle way.
Its the old way. And still
the best.
At Cuervo we know that there is only one way to make
Cuervo Gold perfect. The way we've been doing it for more
than 180 years.
That's why people still nurture our fields of Blue
Maguey plants. And why mules are still used to bring
these precious plants to our distillery. Fbr tradition is still
the most important ingredient in Cuervo Gold.
This is what makes Cuervo Gold truly special. Neat,
on the rocks, with a splash of soda, in a perfect Sunrise or
Margarita, Cuervo Gold will bring you back to a time when
quality ruled the world.
Cuervo. The Gold standard since 1795.
