The paper changed hands again a few years later and was closed this year. In 1992, Communications another family enterprise, sold its five television stations to Young Broadcasting in New York.

One estimate put the selling price at $600 million. The sale left with only one broadcast outlet, KPRC-AM in Houston. Mrs. Hobby had always loved politics. When her father was elected to the Texas House of Representatives in 1919, when she was 14, she went with him to Austin.

After a year in college, she returned to Austin to work first for the State Banking Commission, then as clerk for the House Judiciary In 1926, the Texas Speaker of the House named her parliamentarian.

Later that year, the agency was renamed the Department of Health, Education and Welfare and its secretary was made part of the Cabinet. She was only the second woman to serve in a President's cabinet. The first was Frances Perkins, secretary of labor under Franklin D. Roosevelt. Mrs.

Hobby served in the post for 31 months, overseeing the annual disbursement of $4 billion in welfare funds. One of the major events of her tenure was announcement of the Salk vaccine to prevent polio, which had stricken thousands. She was praised at the time for having the patience to hold the announcement until the vaccine had been properly tested. In 1955, Mrs. Hobby resigned her position and returned to Houston to take care of her ailing husband.

He died in 1964. She was born Jan. 19, 1905, in Killeen, and married Hobby, a family friend, in 1931, when she was 26 and he was 53. Hobby, who was then president of the Post, was on the brink of bankruptcy at the time, so the new Mrs. Hobby went to work at the paper, first as research editor.

The Hobbys had two children, William Jr. or Bill, who was Texas lieutenant governor from 1973-91, and Jessica Hobby Catto. In 1938, Mrs. Hobby was named the Post's executive vice president. The following year, the Hobbys.

Hobby's son, former Texas Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby. On top of her work for the federal government in Democratic and Republican administrations, Mrs. Hobby was a key executive in the Houston Post and other family enterprises.

Forbes magazine listed her as the country's 287th wealthiest person in 1994, estimating her worth and that of her family at $400 million. In 1988 the list ranked her 83rd with an estimated worth of $650 million. Mrs. Hobby was helping her husband, former Texas Gov. William P.

They want to see the war and fight it personally. There are a great many restless WACs overseas." Asked if she meant that women should be issued guns, she demurred, saying, "There is a lot more than shooting to fighting a war."

Russell was a gifted artist and hair stylist. His life was dedicated to creating beauty both with his art and in work for his clients.

Russell was truly one of God's great creations. He was a kind, gentle, and guileless soul for which we all should be thankful for having known and loved. Russell taught us to live life to the fullest, to love without reservation, and to laugh with the merriment of a small child. To borrow from the timeless thoughts of Elizabeth Glazeri He taught me to laugh, when all I wanted to do was cry. He taught me to help others, when all I wanted to do was help myself.

He taught me to love, when all I wanted to do at times was hate. He taught me to live, when all I wanted to do was die. Good-bye my sweet angel. You changed a part of our world for the good. In lieu of flowers, the family requests contributions be made to the Russell A.

A Wichita, native, Swayze began his career as a reporter with the Kansas City Journal Post. He later switched to radio, and did a brief stint on pioneering television in Kansas City in 1933. He permanently moved into the new medium in 1948, when it wasn't considered a plum assignment.

Many journalists referred to it as the "thing," Swayze recently recalled. Even as television began to grow in the 1950s, Swayze saw it in conservative perspective. "Newspapers are necessary if one is to have the complete story of what is going on in the world," he said in an address to the Los Angeles Advertising Club in 1952. "Neither radio nor TV can give the background of a news story the way a daily newspaper can. "But television has the extra dimension of the pictorial to aid it in telling a news story.

Television more than any other medium brings the story to the public and lets the viewer make up his own mind." Last year, Swayze moved from Connecticut to Sarasota, which had been his winter home since 1986.

The newscaster and announcer with the folksy voice died Tuesday at his home. After becoming host of the 15-minute "Camel News Caravan" on NBC in 1949, Swayze developed into one of the first popular TV personalities. The show, sponsored by Camel cigarettes, was the forerunner of the modern newscast and boasted presenting "today's news today." It replaced a straight newsreel for-, mat with live shots, interviews and commentary.

Swayze, who was host for seven years, was known for the opening line "hopscotching the world for headlines" and the carnation on his lapel. His sign -off was also fondly 'quoted by the public as a farewell phrase: "Glad we could get together tonight." "When he signed off with that phrase," said his son, John Carrier -(! on Swayze "he really meant it, and I think people understood that I he meant it."
