Houston Chronicle Obituary
Date: Tue 07/10/2007 Section: B Page: 1 MetFront Edition: 3 STAR JOHN LUKE HILL 1923 - 2007 / Former state chief justice dies at 83 By R.G. RATCLIFFE, Austin Bureau Staff John Luke Hill - who was one of the state's leading lawyers, a former state attorney general and chief justice of the Texas Supreme Court - died Monday of a heart condition at the age of 83. Hill wooed juries with a soft East Texas twang accented by a lisp. He joined the ranks of the strongest of Democratic politicians, luring voters with honesty, sincerity and folksy humor. Hill twice won statewide election as attorney general, was victorious in a race for Supreme Court chief justice and in 1978 defeated sitting Gov. Dolph Briscoe in the Democratic primary for governor. But Hill's dream of becoming Texas' chief executive was dashed by Republican Bill Clements. When Hill retired from the Supreme Court in 1988, he said he was leaving elective office but not public service. "I don't think of it in terms of a swan song," Hill said. "I will always, as long as God gives me breath, be interested in this state and the public policy of this state." Until a month before his death, Hill practiced law at the Winstead firm in Houston, working on appeals and teaching courtroom skills to young lawyers, said managing shareholder Ross Margraves. Hill also headed a committee to raise private funds to help pay for the restoration of the 96-year-old Harris County Civil Courts building. Hill entered St. -

WWII Alumni Reunion and Personal Histories Interviews/Recordings WWII Alumni – We Need Your Votes and Feedback
UT NROTC ALUMNI FOUNDATION P.O. Box 143562 Austin, TX 78714-3562 Forwarding Service Requested The official message board of the University of Texas NROTC Alumni Foundation Volume 12, Issue 3 August 2007 WWII Alumni Reunion and Personal Histories Interviews/Recordings WWII Alumni – We Need Your Votes and Feedback The 2007 WWII Alumni Reunion will bring us a giant step closer to capturing the individual personal experiences of our UTN- ROTC shipmates during World War Two. For the first time, this reunion will offer individual video recorded interviews of WWII alumni on their wartime experiences. (You will remember that during last year’s reunion we had a group recording of 18 WWII alumni who attended a special record- ing session.) And for the first time, the UT Institute for Military History Studies, part of the University’s Center for American History Stud- ies, will conduct the interviews. We’re having video recording. The Institute will then archive them, along with last year’s audio and other official record data, to make them available for future research and to use excerpts eventually in a web-based historical presentation. The Institute hopes to make this the first chapter in a book about UT ROTC members who have served their country in time of war. Wow!! And that is on top of an expanded plan of casual, purely social settings where alumni can visit prior to the traditional Friday dinner social at the Austin Country Club. Saturday the Board and General Membership will meet, as in past years, followed by a BarBQ. In This Issue The Drury Inn & Suites will be the Alumni Reunion hotel for all alumni from WWII classes to the present. -
