South African PH J. P. Kleinhans was seriously injured last week by a cape buffalo that got loose during a dart and move project. He was gored and suffered internal injuries and a broken pelvis. He is hospitalized in Port Elizabeth and is expected to recover. J. P. has a wife and two children. The DSC Frontline Foundation provided a grant to the family to help offset medical and living expenses.

In June, the Foundation provided a grant to South African PH Marco Schoonwinkel who was gored in the torso by a bull gemsbok. Marco suffered serious internal injuries and is still in the process of recovery. Marco has a wife, a young child and another on the way. The Foundation's grant helped the family offset living and medical expenses.

Please keep both of these gentlemen and their families in your thoughts and prayers that they may have full and speedy recoveries from their injuries.

A born Texan has instilled in his system a mind-set of no retreat or no surrender. I wish everyone the world over had the dominating spirit that motivates Texans.– Billy Clayton, Speaker of the Texas House

No state commands such fierce pride and loyalty. Lesser mortals are pitied for their misfortune in not being born in Texas.— Queen Elizabeth II on her visit to Texas in May, 1991.
