14-26 from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., producercoordinator Elmer Martinez is nurturing the essence of the Hispanic spirit through song, dance and display. It is, Martinez asserts, "an educational array of authentic good things to fill the eye and indulge the palate."

"An awesome sight for a European youngster. Today, he is known throughout the Southwest as a painter, watercolorist, etcher, maker of mosaic murals and designer of the collosal eagles, which adorn the Amistad Dam. He has had not one, but two careers in art. One as art director and art editor of "'Hearst's American Weekly" when it was one of the world's most widely circulated periodicals; the other as an artist who portrays the southwestern desert country with a fresh eye, and with an ever-deepening love and understanding. It was a visit that first week in the United States to the Art Department of the "American Weekly" that inspired the young man rigorous discipline of learning to draw and paint in a way that would qualify him for a job on the magazine.
Twelve years later, he became an illustrator for the "Weekly," and later was chosen art director and art editor. It was a period during which American journalism reached a peak of no-holds-barred, free-swinging reportage, and the "American went into almost every home in America. Today, his entire efforts are directed toward ever more interpretive watercolors of the Southwest. The music he hears while painting, he feels, is relfected in his more recent works. Watch for the announcement of this attraction in November and for more details of this master painter's fresh ideas.

Plains issues new plans GRANTS (AP) Plains Electric Generation and Transmission Cooperative says more wells than originally anticipated will be impacted by its proposed use of 7,000 acre-feet of water needed to cool down a generating plant once it goes into operation. The cooperative filed a supplemental water replacement plan with the state engineer's office, which is to review the plan at a Nov.
9 hearing. The water Plains has applied for is to come from the Gallup Underground Water Basin. The company filed the plan in compliance with the Mine Dewatering Act of 1980. Originally, Plains said about 50 wells would be affected by the plant's water needs. But earlier this month, the company estimated that approximately 180 wells would be affected.
Several area residents have filed complaints to the company's request for more wells, saying they feel their wells will be harmed. In its latest plan, Plains included detailed descriptions of how it will offset impacts on each individual well. The company's coal-fired generating station is being built near Prewitt. Company officials said they expect it to be completed by mid-1984. The plant must have the water appropriation granted before it can begin operations.
