Edie Goldenberg named new

E d ie N. G o ld en b e rg , the d ean o f the 
College of Literature, Science and the Arts 
for the U niversity of M ichigan, has been 
appointed the new UT provost, UT officials 
announced Monday.

Goldenberg's selection completes a year­
long search to replace Provost Mark Yudof, 
who left the University last year to become 
president of the University of Minnesota.

The provost is the University's chief acad­
emic officer and is responsible for academic 
programs, departmental advising and plan­
ning, faculty recruiting, and management of

the o verall UT A u stin 
academic budget.

A list o f 100 ca n d i­
dates was compiled and 
narrowed to three final­
ists by a search commit­
tee made up of UT facul­
ty and students in early 
Ju n e. The co m m ittee 
su b m itted 
UT 
President Larry Faulkner 
the 
in clu d ed 
Goldenberg; Morton Lowengrub, a dean at 
Indiana U niversity; and Sheldon Ekland- 
Olson, dean of the UT College of Liberal Arts.
Each candidate had dinner with UT deans,

to 

vice presidents and faculty leaders in early 
June and was invited back a second time for 
more extensive, on-campus interviews with 
faculty, administration and students.

F au lk n er, w ho had final say over the 
appointment, said he took into considera­
tion feedback from those interviews, back­
ground from references, and his own per­
sonal impressions in making his decision.

Fau lkn er said he w as im pressed w ith 
G oldenberg's 9-year adm inistrative track 
record at Michigan.

"S h e has proven h erself in one of the 
most complex and difficult academic jobs in 
the United States with a scope comparable 
to the provost job," Faulkner said.

The College of Literature, Science and the 
A rts is the larg est co lleg e at M ichig an, 
boasting two-thirds of the undergraduates, 
one-third of the faculty, 23 departm ents, 
and a budget of more than $200 million.

Fau lkn er said G o ld en b erg 's ab ility to 
maintain academic excellence under a con­
fined budget shows she will be able to han­
dle the tight academic budget at the nation's 
largest university.

"I think she understands the conflicting 
challenges and the tradeoffs that have to be 
made to foster quality in academics with a 
set spectrum of resources," he said.

After the U niversity's top two adminis­
trative spots were left vacant last year, the

U n iv e rsity has filled th o se sp o ts w ith 
administrators from outside the state.

Faulkner, who began his job as president in 
A p ril, w as p rev io u sly p ro v o st at the 
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champagne.

Faulkner had previously said he wanted 
to fill the provost spot with a current UT 
adm inistrator. "W hen we first started the 
search, I placed a high premium on a candi­
date with strong local knowledge," he said.

But Faulkner said it was easier to consid­
er o u tsid e can d id ates on ce he saw how 
quickly he had picked up on the needs of 
the UT community. UT Liberal Arts Dean 
Sheldon Ekland-Olson was the only internal

Love triangle
Board rejects original plan, 
gives 3 months for alternate

Opponents of the Triangle devel­
o p m en t w on a v ic to ry M on d ay 
when a state board voted to reject 
the original proposal and give resi­
dents and state and city officials 
th ree m onths to com e up w ith a 
compromise.

Because the original site design 
had drawn little support from the 
City of Austin and the property's 
n eig h b o rs, the six-m em b er State 
Board of Review voted unanimous­
ly to reject the plan.

"The plan, in its current form, has 
n o t g a in ed the su p p o rt we had 
hoped for," said Charles Cooper, a 
review board m em ber and ch air­
man of the board of the Department 
o f M en tal H ealth and M en tal 
Retardation, which owns the land. 
"There is no reason to go forward."

Instead, the concerned parties — 
neighbors of the property, the site's 
developer, Cencor Realty Services, 
Inc., and city and state officials — 
will sit down over the next 90 days to 
hash out a new site design based on a 
revised plan of the original proposal.

During the three-month planning 
period, board m em bers said they 
hope a compromise can be reached 
that satisfies the city's, state's and 
residents' concerns.

Land Commissioner Garry Mauro, 
who is the chairman of the board, 
said if all the parties make an effort 
to collaborate, the end result should 
be apian everyone can live with.

"There is no reason why you can't 
work toward a process that meets 
everybody's needs and make it a win- 
win for everybody," Mauro said.

U niversity plans to break ground 
on construction of the project this

plans for the am phitheater in the

and a speaker system.

Construction of the amphitheater

months to complete the project.

Hoelting said the idea to update 
the Jester courtyard area came from 
students who felt that Jester's court­
yard was underused.

"Jester students came to us in the

Another controversy is brewing 
in the City of Austin as two local 
beer makers are butting heads to 
tap the party m arket in the Live 
Music Capital of the World.

C e lis B rew ery , 

in 
Austin, has unveiled its new mar­

Austin's official beer.

"W hen people think of Austin, 
we want them to think of the Celis 
Brewery," said Christine Celis, the 
brewery's president.

C elis o fficials said m icro and 
regional brew eries have alw ays 
achieved their greatest popularity 
in th eir ow n hom etow n, so the 
com pany plans to focus its cam­
paign efforts on Austin residents.

They have also g on e to local 
bars and restaurants to encourage 
bartend ers and beer-drinkers to 
add a slice of orange or a splash of 
orange juice to their Celis White as 
a p art o f its new "O ra n g e and

"Shiner is the number one seller. 
It beats every [other beer] here ten 
to o n e ," said E d d ie M ack, the 
m an ag er at T e x a s Sh o w d ow n , 
located at 2610 Guadalupe Street. 
"You don't want to ask me about 
C elis — I like it; it ju st d o esn 't 
sell."

M any fre q u e n te rs of T exas 
in c lu d in g Tom 
Sh o w d o w n , 
"S a rg e" Painter, a UT alum nus, 
affirm Shiner's status as top beer.

With so many beers and so little 
time, most local bar ow ners and 
beer drinkers said Celis will have 
a hard time convincing Austin res­
idents that it is the city's official 
beer. 

»

The only catch is that C elis is 
brewed here in the Austin city lim­
its, while Shiner is an hour and a 
h a lf so u th e a st o f A u stin in a 
sleep y tow n th at is the b e e r 's 
namesake.

In Sh in er's defense, som e bar 
o w n ers w e re n 't so su re th at 
p u ttin g o ra n g e s in b eer w ill 
become a trend.

"H ell, oranges cost more than 
C elis W h ite ," 
said B ro o k s 
Brannon, a bartender at Hole in 
the W all Arcade and Restaurant 
on the Drag. H ow ever, Brannon 
added that the owners of Celis are 
good people and they come into 
Hole in the Wall all the time.

Some UT students are already 
b a ck in g C elis as th e ir beer o f 
choice.

"I think that Celis is a good rep­
re se n ta tio n o f A u stin b eca u se 
A u stin 
is a re la tiv e ly you ng 
tow n," said finance junior Lorie 
Lutz. "I prefer Celis to Shiner, no 
question — Women prefer fruitier 
drinks, and anytime you advertise 
something fruity, you're going to 
open the market to more females 
who g en erally d o n 't p refer the 
dark beers."

Kelly Jones, general manager at 
Copper Tank, located on Trinitv 
St. between Fifth and Sixth streets, 
said the large number of fans of 
other popular beers could make 
b eco m in g the o ffic ia l b eer o f 
Austin a "big leap" for the Celis 
Brewery.

C hristopher Joseph, known to

'

his patrons as C. J., tends bar at 
Touché's at 417 E. 6th St. and said 
his top selling beers are Bud Light 
and D os E q u is, w h ich av erag e 
about 24 cases per week and 2.5 
kegs per month, respectively.

But, he added, Shiner Bock isn't 

too far back.

"In comparison to my num ber 
one seller, I buy abou t 10 to 15 
cases of Shiner for every 100 cases 
of beer," Joseph said.

D av id W in k le y , a se n io r at 
Southwest Texas State University 
and a bartender at Shakespeare's 
Pub, located at 314 E. 6th St., noted 
that only a few people notice the 
difference between a pale beer or a 
bock, and that most people aren't 
even aware of the many types of 
beer there are.

"M o st peop le know C oors or 

Bud," Winkley said.

W'inkley and several other bar­
tenders agreed that whether or not 
Celis gains the elusive "O fficial 
Beer of A ustin" title, the biggest 
seller in the area will continue to 
be B u d w eiser, or an o th er w ell- 
known American beer that bene­
fits from plenty of advertising.

This courtyard is the future site of a $500.000 amphitheatre at Jester Center.

Border region among nation’s poorest, study says

SA N A N TO N IO — T e x a s' 43- 
county border region is one of the 
poorest and least-educated areas in 
the nation, according to a new study 
by the state comptroller's office.

The rep o rt, 

to be re lea sed 
Tuesday at the University of Texas- 
Pan American, also suggests several 
measures to deal with border prob­
lems, including getting the Texas 
Legislature together with its coun­
terparts in Mexico.

Comptroller John Sharp, a candi­
date for lieutenant governor, said he 
hopes the study will be a starting

p o in t for h elp in g th e reg io n he 
called important for the state's eco­
nomic future.

"The more prosperous the border 
region becomes, the more prosper­
ous Texas b eco m es," Sharp said. 
"This contains a message to legisla­
tors and to the rest of Texas that, in 
the future, you ignore the region at 
your own peril."

The stu d y say s T e x a s' b o rd er 
reg io n , if it w ere its ow n sta te, 
w ould have the n a tio n 's highest 
unemployment rate and severe bar­
riers to education and medical ser­
vices. It would also be the poorest.

The rest of Texas, meanwhile, has

a robust employment market and a 
relatively well-educated work force 
that enjoys healthy growth in annual 
average pay, according to the report.

The revelations are not new, but 
Sharp says the study provid es a 
u niqu ely co m p reh en siv e way to 
look at the border region and its 
conditions as a whole.

The report addresses several issues, 
including econom ic developm ent, 
elementary and secondary education, 
housing, medical care, air and water 
quality, transportation and crime.

Sharp declined to detail all of the 
re p o rt's re co m m en d atio n s u ntil 
Tuesday. The San Antonio Express-

ask in g 

in c lu d e 

News reported, however, that they 
in clu d e 
the 
Legislature to initiate joint sessions 
with the Mexican states of Coahuila, 
Chihuahua, Tamaulipas and Nuevo 
Leon to explore issues for both sides 
of the border

Another proposal is for the feder­
al government to establish a sort of 
"Border Regional Commission" for 
the states bordering Mexico so there 
would be a voice in W ashington, 
D C., for the area.

"T h o se issues are addressed in 
the re p o r t," C arm en L u ev an o s, 
spokesw om an with the com p trol­
ler's office, confirmed Monday.

Despite G oldenberg's unfam iliar­

said she has a clear idea of the most 
crucial UT academ ic issues.

G o ld en b erg said she is looking 
fo rw ard to m e e tin g w ith stu d e n t 
and faculty leaders to pinpoint the 
details of the UT com m unity's p ri­
m ary concerns.

W hile she is quick to ad m it she 
has a lot to learn about the school,

undergraduate education.

I have been very im pressed by 
the students, faculty and staff I've 
met so far and their enthusiasm for 
high-quality academ ic program s," 
she said.

M any of the p ro b lem s w ith UT 
academ ics — including a poor fac- 
ulty-student ratio and non-com peti­
tive faculty salaries — are tied to 
financial need, she said.

Im proving the instructional b u d ­
get, which pays the faculty salaries, 
is key to m ain ta in in g q u ality and 
e n s u rin g g ro w th of UT academ ic 
program s, G oldenberg said.

The University m ust find ways to 
increase faculty salaries to keep the 
best professors and researchers, she 
said, adding that adequate com pen­
s a tio n for sta ff m e m b e rs w ill be 
im portant.

The U niversity will also need to 
somehow increase graduate stipends 
to attract the most talented students to 
UT research programs, she said.

G o ld en b e rg said she w ill w ork 
closely with Faulkner to explore all 
av enues for revenue, b u t she said 
she believes it will need to be a col­
lective effort involving the legisla­
ture, the adm inistration, the private 
sector and the student body.

"She has a breadth of adm inistra­

hopes G o ld en b erg 's experience as

A rm ed with a guitar, six-shooters, 
good looks and charm, Rogers rose 
in salary and popularity to "King of 
the Cow boys." From 1943 to 1954, 
he w as the top W estern star at the 
box office in a m agazine poll of the­
ater operators.

Loaded with fights — always fair — 
and chases that corralled the bad guys, 
his 87 films, with nam es like Under 
Western Stars and Song of Arizona, were 
especially popular in small towns. His 
television series, which ran from 1951 
to 1957, and thereafter in reruns, had 
similar appeal.

great cowboy rival, Gene A utry.

"W e have been close friends for 
half a century. This is a terrible loss

Rogers kept up his musical career

neighborhood leaders, the city and 
the state will put together a regulat­

each aspect of the design.

Once a developm ent plan is pro­
duced, neighborhood residents will 
have a change to voice their concerns 
with the proposal at a workshop.

Mayor Kirk Watson, w ho is on the 
b o ard, said the co o p erativ e effort 
should become a model for the way 
the city and state can work together.

A 45-day progress report on the 
deliberations will be produced by city 
staff and the General Land Office.

The discussions will be based on 
a modified version of Cencor's orig­
inal d ev elo p m en t proposal, w hich 
w as is su e d by th e G e n e ra l L and

Muslim, Croat genocide trial begins

Associated Press

THE HAGUE, N eth erlan d s — 
Trying a genocide case for the first 
time, prosecutors at the Yugoslav 
w ar crim es tribunal on M onday 
accused a Bosnian Serb of oversee­
ing the rape, torture and murder of 
Muslims and Croats.

The U.N. tribunal's seventh trial 
will decide whether Milan Kovace- 
vic orchestrated atrocities while he 
w as a member of the ruling Serb 
elite.

The crimes allegedly were com ­
mitted in the Prijedor municipality 
of northwest Bosnia in 1992.

Prosecutors say they in cluded 
m urders and tortures in three of 
the Bosnian war's m ost infam ous 
prison camps: Omarska, Keraterm 
and Tmopolje.

Kovacevic, 57, faces 15 charges, 
in c lu d in g g en o c id e , w ar crim es 
and crimes against humanity.

He has pleaded innocent. If con­
victed , he faces a m axim um life 
sentence.

A lthough K ovacevic is the first 
defendant to stand trial on gen o­
cide charges before the U .N . tri­

b u n al, he is n o t th e o nly su sp e ct 
facing those charges.

Harassment law changes demanded

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Supreme 
Court's séx harassment rulings for 
school and workplace could send a 
mixed message, critics say, and they 
w an t C on gress to step in and 
change the law.

The court, in its recently ended 
term, said an employer can be held 
r esp o n sib le for a su p e r v iso r's 
harassment of a worker, even if the 
em p lo y e r w as u n aw are. On the 
oth er hand, sc h o o ls cannot be 
forced to pay d a m a g es w h en a 
teacher harasses a student unless 
administrators knew about the mis­
conduct and ignored it.

The rulings are different because 

the laws are different.

"The clear message is 'change the 
law,'" said Kathy Rodgers of the

N ational O rganization for W omen 
legal defense fund.

W ith o u t C o n g re s s m a k in g a

"Strong and pow erful incentives

dures" to prevent harassm ent, said 
Marcia G reenberger of the National 
W om en's Law C enter. But th ere 's

to hide from the h arassm ent," she 
added.

Employers are always responsible 
if a w orker suffered retaliation, such 
as firing or dem otion. If there was 
no retaliation, em ployers can avoid

O n the o th e r h a n d , school d is ­

WASHINGTON — Congress was 
having a hard enough time digest­
ing President Clinton's decision to 
leave U.S. troops in Bosnia for the 
foreseeable future. Now, tensions in 
nearby K osovo are raising even 
tougher questions about the U.S. 
role in the Balkans — ones Congress 
does not seem eager to address.

"We alw ays talked in terms of 
Bosnia — that we have to contain 
that so it will not spill over into the 
Kosovo region. Now just the reverse 
has taken place," said Sen. John 
Warner, R-Va. "It is Kosovo which 
threatens to spill over, dislodge, and 
disrupt som e of the achievem ents

Neither the House nor Senate has

views on how to deal with the crisis.
Som e w h o o p p o sed se n d in g 
ground troops to Bosnia in 1995, 
including Senate Majority Leader 
Trent Lott, R-Miss., are hinting that 
the U nited States arid its NATO 
allies should use force to end Milo­
sevic's crackdowns.

"This is a very dangerous situa­
tion and the United States, working 
with our NATO allies, cannot stand 
by for a co n tin u a tio n of eth n ic 
cleansing and slaughter," Lott said 
recently

Bob Dole, the former Senate major­

candidate, w ants NATO to conduct 
a irstn k e s against m ilitary installa­

his attacks in Kosovo and agrees to 
peace talks. Sen. Alíonse D'Am ato, 
R-N.Y., w ants an international w ar 
cnmes tribunal to indict Milosevic for 
cnmes against humanity.

But others have voiced more cau­

among Serbs, Croats and Muslims 
seems to be working in Bosnia, few 
are optimistic that such a coalition 
government could function in Koso­

Mexico’s 
ruling 
party on 
rebound

Associated Press

CHIHUAHUA, Mexico — W rit­
ten off by som e as a d y in g relic, 
M ex ico 's ru lin g p a rty h a s com e 
back with a dramatic election victo­
ry, reclaiming the governor's office 
in this northern border state.

"We transformed the PRI and the 
people re sp o n d e d ," C h ih u a h u a 's 
Gov.-elect, Patricio M artinez, said 
Monday, referring to the Institution­
al Revolutionary Party by its Span­
ish initials.

It w as th e firs t tim e th e PRI, 
which until a decade ago controlled 
every state in Mexico, has rec ap ­
tured a state lost to an opposition 
p a rty . A nd it w as a m ajor bo o st 
after a string of defeats — including 
th e loss of th e PR I's m a jo rity in 
Congress last year.

The PR] also won the governor's 
race in north-central D urango state 
in S unday's elections, b u t a leftist 
o p p o s itio n c a n d id a te w a s th e 
apparent victor in Zacatecas, anoth­
er northern state.

Chihuahua state election officials 
said that with 75 percent of the vote 
c o u n te d , M a rtin e z led R am on 
Galindo of the conservative Nation­
al Action Party by 341,247 votes to 
276,048 — 51 percent to 42 percent. 
Three other candidates split the rest.
The victory belies claims that the 
PRI w o u ld w ith e r once o u t of 
power, at least on a state level. Cre­
ated in 1929 to govern Mexico, the 
party historically has depended on 
handing out patronage to a network 
of labor, farm and social groups.

The C h ih u a h u a sta te PRI w as 
devastated when Francisco Barrio of 
National Action was elected gover­
nor in 1992 — a victorv fed by wide­
spread belief that fraud had robbed 
him of the post six years earlier.

The PRI w as fo rced to l a y off 
hu n dreds of its workers, and new 
officials cam paig ned against cor­
ru p tio n . They scoured state p a y ­
ro lls, firin g h u n d r e d s of PRI 
activists w ho worked for the party 
rather than at their state jobs.

D eeply in debt, the PRI had so 
m u ch tro u b le p a y in g b ills th a t 
pow er and phones were cut off to 
its state headquarters for a time.

Asked w hen the party began to 
re b o u n d , 
sp o k e sm a n V ic to r 
Alvidres joked: "About two months 
ago." In fact, the parte recaptured a 
m ajority in the state legislature in 
1995.

Cuban exiles send 
food, aid to others
■ MEXICO CITY — In a protest 
aim ed at the U nited States as 
w ell as Fidel Castro's govern ­
ment, a Cuban exile group sent a 
raft 
lo a d ed w ith food and 
h um anitarian aid into C uban 
waters Monday.

The M iami-based Democracy 
Movement said its action was the 
first by an exile group in Cuban 
territory since Cuba shot down 
tw o unarm ed p la n es in 1996 
flown by Brothers to the Rescue, 
killing four exiles.

The raft, containing food, soap 
and other supplies, was launched 
late Sunday from Cuban waters, 
about 10 1 /2 m iles from the 
Cuban coast, said Luis Felipe 
Rojas, a Dem ocracy M ovem ent 
spokesman. Attached to the raft 
w as a 20-foot-long blim p with 
the word "Democracy" em bla­
zoned across it.

The action cam e one m onth 
after the United States resumed 
direct humanitarian aid to Cuba, 
which was suspended after the 
planes were shot dow n. Presi­
dent Clinton lifted the ban after 
Pope John Paul II visited Cuba in 
January.

Democracy Movement said in 
a statement that it "needs neither 
a foreign law, nor the arrogant 
denial of the Cuban government, 
to take assistance to its own peo­
ple," describing the operation as 
"a new tactic within its nonvio­
lent strategy."

Clinton silent about Chinese rights

On June 24th, Chinese officials 
forced Fu Sheng to leave his home 
in Xian because of President Clin­
ton's arrival the next day. Fu had 
led a dem onstration of workers in 
1989 in support of the Tiananmen 
Square protests. As he was taken 
out of the city, so he could not con­
tact American officials, he said that 
"The meeting between the Am eri­
cans and the Chinese is a good 
thing, another handshake. But why 
au thorities violated my 
have 
rights?" This is a question for the 
Chinese. The question for Ameri­
cans is: Why was this violation not 
protested?

to register 

On June 26th — the day after 
President Clinton's evening arrival 
in China — three Chinese citizens 
sought 
the C hinese 
Democratic Party. One of the par­
ty's founders, Wang Youcai, had 
been imprisoned for two years by 
the Chinese government for his par­
ticipation in the Tiananmen Square 
demonstrations. He said after the 
application had been submitted that 
"W e hope Clinton will pay atten­
tion and support the establishment 
of an opposition party in China, so 
we chose today to register."

Fat chance. Wang was arrested 
three days later. Clinton didn't care

to meet with democracy advocates 
in China, and he had no objection to 
being greeted at Tiananmen Square 
— the site of a government mas­
sacre of pro-dem ocracy students. 
His willingness to be greeted at the 
historic site had been criticized 
before he left; had the critics been a 
little more blunt, they might have 
observed that this would be like 
being greeted by the government of 
Nazi Germany at the site of a death 
camp.

President Clinton responded to 
his critics by saying that "I simply 
don't accept the proposition that 
observing their diplomatic protocol 
in any way undermines my capaci­
ty to advance the principles of the 
United States." Mr. Clinton was cor­
rect. The fact that he was to be 
greeted 
Square 
at Tiananm en 
would not have been so humiliating 
had he chosen to express the out­
rage of a free people at the brutal 
murder of hundreds of students — 
and yet he said nothing. W hat 
stopped him?

Before he left, President Clinton

assured his critics that he would use 
the trip as an opportunity to "say 
what I h a v e to say" about human 
rights. It seems he had very little to 
say. His address to Xian, the first 
city he entered, made no mention of 
"dem ocracy," "individual rights," 
or "liberty." The word "freedom " 
does appear, but only in a list of 
things that contribute to "A m erica's 
strength and success" — freedom is 
apparently not a moral principle, 
but a tool to get rich and powerful.
Clinton was optim istic about Chi­
na's prospects 
for d em ocratic 
reform, and even a few Republican 
lauded 
the d iplom atic achieve­
ments of the trip. W hile Clinton 
may very well have made progress 
in diplomatic relations, he failed as 
a spokesman for the human rights 
and individual liberty. He did not 
take the C hinese governm ent to 
task for its policies of repression 
and outright murder.

Clinton was more concerned with 
responding to his critics than he 
was with carrying the moral mes­
sage of freedom to the Chinese. In 
his Xian speech, he said, "There 
may be those, here and back in 
Am erica, who w onder w hether 
closer ties and deeper friendship 
between America and China are

good." But nobody suggested, that 
closer ties and deeper friendship 
are bad. Critics suggested that tacit 
endorsement of tyranny is bad.

that 

W hile 

show ed 
the president 
m oral and rhetorical cow ardice 
abroad, a few governm ent officials 
displayed integrity and courage at 
home. On July 3, the State of New 
York announced 
it w ould 
im pose sanctions against Sw iss 
banks that profited from w ealth 
plundered from Holocaust victims. 
The Sw iss banks and government 
have been reticent about settling 
claim s by H olocaust survivors, 
despite the fact that a study by a 
Swiss governm ent panel report con­
cluded that Sw iss officials w ere 
aware that gold the Nazis had sold 
were looted from Jews. If a settle­
ment is not reached, the sanctions 
would begin take effect beginning 
in September.

If the governments of an Am eri­
can state and city are w illing to 
undertake major sanctions against 
the Swiss for a 65-year-old theft, 
shouldn't the president of the Unit­
ed States be able to spare a few 
words for the slaughtered dem oc­
rats of China?

When all relevant statistics are

Josh Knowles provides some 
interesting statistics and uses 
them to argue that the death 
penalty as administered in the 
U.S. seems to be disproportionate 
when it comes to race. I'll quote: 
"It looks to me like a very dispro­
portionate number of black execu­
tions — 39 percent of executions in 
1995 coming from only 12.7 per­
cent of the population."

Yes, this number is dispropor­
tionate, but not when seen in light

Reapply your racial

An open letter to Josh Knowles:
There is absolutely no logic to 
be found in your comparison of 
the racial makeup of those indi­
viduals executed in our penal sys­
tem to the racial makeup of the 
general population. If you want to 
compare those numbers to the 
population of violent offenders 
convicted, or the population of 
individuals convicted of capital 
crimes, or even individuals given 
death sentences, then you have 
taken a step in the right "direction. 
To compare those numbers to the 
general population of the United 
States is not only illogical, but it is 
misleading and insulting to the

law-abiding majority (of all races). 
Just thought I'd point that out.

Morales accused 

of slowing tobacco 
settlement
■ Republican attorney general 
c a n d id a te John C o rn y n says 
Texas A tto rn ey G en eral Dan 
Morales has been using a lawsuit 
filed by Cornyn as an excuse to 
hold up an agreement that would 
finalize the state's $15.3 billion 
settlement with Big Tobacco.

On M onday, C ornyn said he 
would withdraw the lawsuit "to 
rem ove General M orales' last 
bogus excuse and stop him from 
holding hostage millions of dollars 
from cigarette makers that should 
be flowing into the state's coffers."

Morales on Monday said he had­
n't yet seen a new court motion in 
the tobacco case filed by Cornyn, a 
former Texas Supreme Court justice, 
and declined comment on Comyn's 
statem ents. He said only that 
progress was being made in talks 
with Gov. George W. Bush and 
w ith the private attorneys who 
represented the state in the tobac­
co lawsuit.

The p a rtie s are 

try in g to 
resolve legal objections raised by 
Bush, Cornyn and seven legisla­
to rs re g a rd in g $2.3 b illio n in 
attorneys' fees stem m ing from 
the tobacco case.

Bush says the fees are simply too 
high and could end up being paid 
by taxpayers, while Cornyn argued 
in his lawsuit filed in January that 
M orales d id n 't have the legal 
authority to enter into a contingency 
fee agreement with the attorneys.

Jury-choosing for 

David Graham starts
■ NEW BRAUNFELS — Former 
Air Force Academy cadet David 
Graham got a glimpse Monday of 
the Comal County residents who 
will decide his fate as potential 
jurors arrived in court for his cap­
ital m urder trial.

The 20-yéar-old Graham, wear­
ing a dark blue suit and sporting 
a military-style haircut, stood up 
straight and appeared confident 
beside his three law yers as he 
was introduced to the jury pool.

The judge asked the potential 
jurors as a group w hether they 
knew any of the figures in the case 
and w hether they had crim inal 
charges against them or other cir­
cumstances preventing jury service.
A total of 20 were excused Mon­
day, leaving 161 people in the pool.
The judge is questioning the 
jury pool himself through Thurs­
day. The defense and prosecution 
attorneys will question prospec­
tive jurors early next week.

Because of extensive publicity, 
the judge moved Graham 's trial 
from Fort W orth in T arran t 
C o u n ty to this tow n 30 m iles 
northeast of San Antonio.

G ra h am 's ex-fiancee, D iane 
Zamora, who had been a Naval 
Academy midshipman, was con­
victed of capital m urder in Febru­
ary in Fort Worth and is serving a 
life sentence.

Both G raham an d Z am ora 
w ere charged w ith k illing 16- 
year-old Adrianne Jones, a high 
school classmate with whom Gra­
ham allegedly had a brief roman­
tic fling. P ro sec u to rs allege

State will oversee certain 
property insurance rates

Associated Press

Consumer credit property insur­
ance rates will be regulated by the 
state beginning in 1999, Texas Insur­
ance C om m issioner Elton Bomer 
announced Monday.

Consumer credit property insurance 
protects property, such as computers, 
refrigerators and stereos, from theft or 
other loss while property is being paid 
off. It does not cover homes or cars.

The coverage is generally sold by 
d e p a rtm en t stores and specialty 
stores marketing such goods as elec­
tronics, furniture and appliances.

The new regulations, which take 
effect Jan. 1, 1999, m ark the first 
tim e that rates and policy form s 
have been regulated.

"I w ant to make sure that con­
sumers know exactly what they are 
paying for and that they are making 
in fo rm ed d ecisio n s w hen they 
decide w hether to purchase con­

sum er credit property insurance," 
B om er said. "These re g u la tio n s 
accomplish those goals and are fair 
to both the sellers and the buyers of 
this type of insurance."

Insurance in d u stry spokesm an 
Jerry Johns, of the S outhw estern 
Insurance Information Service, raised 
no objections to the regulations.

"We believe that people need to 
make informed choices when p ur­
chasing any type of insurance, and if 
the commissioner's rules will help do 
that we are supportive," Johns said.

In January, Bomer and officials of 
Montgomery Ward signed a consent 
o rd e r u n d e r w hich the com pany 
agreed to offer refunds to customers 
who bought a "Credit Security Plan" 
without realizing it was insurance.

Refunds could total as much as $5 
million if all customers who unwitting­
ly bought the insurance seek a refund.
U nder the adopted regulations,

TDI will control rates and policy lan­
guage. Also, retailers m ust clearly 
point out to prospective buyers that 
the coverage might duplicate existing 
residential property coverage.

O ther key points th at m ust be 

explained to the purchaser include:

■ The policyholder's right to can­

cel the policy at any time.

■ The price of the insurance.
■ The fact that the policy pays on 
any covered property before any 
homeowners coverage kicks in.

Bomer held a hearing on the credit 
property insurance issue April 9. A 
Texas Department of Insurance staff 
report at that hearing said allowing 
the coverage to be sold "in its current 
unregulated status invites consumer 
abuses." He said Monday that stud­
ies show ed loss ratio s on cred it 
property insurance industrywide in 
1996 were lower than on any other 
type of credit insurance.

City folk found healthier than rural

Associated Press

WICHITA FALLS — Rural Texans 
have access to the same kinds of med­
ical services as city dwellers, but put 
themselves at risk with fatty diets and 
a seeming reluctance to wear seat belts, 
a community health study found.

"My personal opinion, from my 
reading of this survey, is that rural 
people exhibit certain behaviors that 
s£em to make them more suscepti­
ble to these kinds of problems," said 
Dr. Anthony B. Way, a professor of 
occupational and preventive medi­
cine at the Texas Tech University

Health Sciences Center, who ana­
lyzed the survey results for a con­
ference presentation. "At the same 
time, the educational opportunities 
available in the city aren't as widely 
available in the country."

Commissioned by St. Mary Hos­
pital in Lubbock, surveyors for Pro­
fessional Research C onsultants, a 
private firm, conducted telephone 
interview s in 1995 of about 1,000 
residents of Lubbock and eight sur­
ro u n d in g co unties. A bo ut tw o- 
th ird s of the re sp o n d e n ts w ere 
u rbanites in the city of Lubbock, 
while the remainder were rural resi­

dents. Way said the survey had a 
m argin of error of plus or m inus 
three percentage points.

Forty percent of country people 
surveyed reported a weight prob­
lem, versus 30 percent of people in 
the city, he said. Eighty-five percent 
of urban drivers said they wear seat 
belts, while only 75 percent of rural 
people reported doing so.

Part of the problem is tradition, 
Way said. Although today's farmer 
relies on machinery for many of the 
tasks that were once done by hand, 
ru ra l folks still eat big m eals 
because they always have, he said.

3 indictments
handed down 
in Jasper

Associated Press

JASPER — Three white men were 
indicted on capital m urder charges 
Monday in the suspected hate-slay­
ing of a black m an w ho w as 
ch ain ed to a p ick u p tru c k and 
dragged to his death.

Two separate indictments, issued 
by a Jasp e r C o u n ty g ra n d ju ry , 
accuse the three suspects of kidnap­
ping and killing James Byrd Jr. June 
7 on a rural East Texas road.

N am ed in one in d ic tm e n t are 
John William King, 23, of Jasper and 
Law rence Russell Brewer, 31, of 
Sulphur Springs. A second indict­
ment names Shawn Allen Berry, 23, 
of Jasper.

The suspects remain jailed w ith­
out bond in what authorities call a 
racially m otivated crime. All three 
have criminal records and authori­
ties have said at least two wear tat­
toos of white racist prison gangs. 
Racist lite ra tu re also was seized 
from their homes.

T here w ill be no a rra ig n m e n t 
hearing for the three. The earliest 
possible trial date is January 1999, 
said Jasper C ounty Sheriff Billy 
Rowles. If convicted, the suspects 
could face the death penalty.

Jasper County District Attorney 
Guy James Gray could not immedi­

ately be re ach e d for com m ent. 
Attorneys for Brewer and King did 
not return telephone messages from 
The Associated Press.

B eaum ont law y e r Jo seph C. 
"Lum" Hawthorn notified the court 
Monday that he has been retained 
by the suspect's family to defend 
Berry at trial. H aw th o rn said he 
expected Berry to plead innocent.

Investigators believe Byrd, 49, 
accepted a ride from the suspects as 
he w alk ed hom e from a n iece 's 
bridal shower. But police believe 
that instead of taking him home, the 
men drove Byrd to a wooded area, 
b eat him , ch a in e d him b eh in d 
B erry's tru ck an d sped d o w n a 
bumpy road just east of town.

B yrd's severed head, neck and 
right arm were discovered about a 
mile from where his shredded torso 
was dumped. A trail of blood, body 
parts and personal effects stretched 
for two miles, police said.

According to one court affidavit, 
Berry told authorities that Brewer 
sp ra y ed B y rd 's face w ith black 
paint before he was killed.

In addition to any state charges, 
federal authorities are considering 
federal hate crime charges against 
the trio, w hich also could m ake 
them eligible for the death penalty.

Bill allowing illegals to 
remain in U.S. debated

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — After a bruis­
ing battle, Congress last winter ended 
a controversial program that allowed 
certain illegal immigrants to remain in 
the United States while legalizing 
their status, provided that they pay a 
$1,000 fine.

Less th a n e ig h t m o n th s later, 
ho w ev er, lan g u ag e th a t w o u ld 
revive the program on a permanent 
basis has been quietly slipped into a 
Senate appropriations bill.

The proposed resurrection of the 
program, known by its bureaucratic 
nickname 245, won't go unchallenged.

House lawmakers who fought to 
terminate the program last year on 
grounds that it rewards lawbreakers 
and encourages illegal immigration 
are vowing to block its return.

The program originated in 1994, 
envisioned as a short-term measure. 
Due to end in 1997, it was revived 
twice last fall under heavy lobbying 
from immigrant, business and reli­
gious groups.

"We think if s quite unfortunate that 
some folks want to revive this fight," 
said Rick Dykema, top aide to Rep. 
Dana Rohxabacher, R-Calif., who led 
last year's campaign to kill 245.

Rohrabacher didn't prevail in his 
effort to terminate the program out­
right. But under a compromise fash­
ioned by House and Senate negotia­
tors, und o cu m en ted im m igrants 
were given until Jan. 14, 1998, to file 
for 245 status.

One who isn't eager to revisit the 
debate is the chairman of the House 
im m igration subcom m ittee, Rep. 
Lam ar S m ith, R-San A n to n io .

"There was a grand com prom ise 
created th a t w on b ro a d ac cep ­
tance," said Smith spokesman Allen 
Kay. "That issue is over."

The program , term ed a rolling 
am nesty by its critics, always has 
had m ore su p p o rt in the Senate. 
Last year, even as House conserva­
tives worked to terminate the pro­
gram, the Senate voted in favor of 
permanent extension.

Last month, members of the Sen­
ate appropriations subcom m ittee 
th a t co n tro ls s p e n d in g for the 
departm ents of Justice, State and 
Commerce approved a 1999 spend­
ing bill that would revive 245. The 
bill was approved by the full com­
mittee as well, and now goes to the 
Senate for its consideration.

Some are critical of the process.
"Sneaking that provision, which 
is a fairly major provision, into an 
a p p ro p ria tio n s bill w ith o u t any 
public debate is not a good idea," 
said Rosemary Jenks of the Center 
for Im m ig ratio n S tudies, w hich 
favors tighter immigration controls.
A spokesman for Sen. Judd Gregg, 
the New Hampshire Republican who 
chairs the Commerce, Justice, State 
appropriations subcommittee, could­
n't immediately provide any expla­
nation for the action.

Officials at the Immigration and Nat­
uralization Service said the proposal to 
revive 245 wasn't done at their behest, 
as some observers have suggested.

"The first we heard about this bill 
was last w eek," INS spokesm an 
Don M ueller said M onday. "My 
understanding is we have not asked 
for 245 back and are definitely not a 
party to this bill.

Astros deal for 
Florida's Powell
H D E N V E R — Relief pitcher Jay 
Powell, one of the Marlins' last 
links to the team that won the 
World Series, has been traded 
from Florida to the Houston 
Astros in a three-player deal.

The trade was completed late 
Sunday night, after the teams 
played their final game before the 
A ll-Star break. Houston also 
acquired m inor-league catcher 
Scott Makarewicz and Florida got 
catcher Ramon 
minor-league 
Castro.

Powell was the winning pitch­
er in Game 7 of the World Series, 
working a scoreless 11th inning 
against Cleveland. The Marlins 
won 3-2 in the bottom half on 
Edgar Renteria's single.

left w ith the M arlins. M oisés 
Alou, who was traded to H ous­
ton in the offseason, and sever­
al other p layers w ere either 
dealt or not re-signed.

Powell, 26, was 4-4 with three 
saves and a 4.21 ERA this year. 
The right-hander pitched in 33 
games, tied for the team lead 
with Felix Heredia.

Powell led the Marlins with 74 
appearances last season, going 7- 
2 with two saves and a 3.28 ERA. 
He pitched four times in the 
World Series, going 1-0 with a 
7.36 ERA.

The trade moves Powell from 
the Marlins, last in the NL East, to 
the NL Central-leading Astros. 
He joins a bullpen that has Billy 
Wagner as a closer and uses C.J. 
Nitkowski, Doug Henry, Bob 
Scanlan and Mike M agnante,

named MLB boss
■ D E N V E R — Baseball's long­
term search for a new leader is 
over — and Bud's still the one. 
The only one.

After six years without a com­
missioner, the sport will finally 
elect one Thursday, and the lone 
candidate is the man who said 
early and often that he didn't 
want the job — Milwaukee Brew­
ers owner Bud Selig.

"I really meant that," Selig said 
as he prepared to travel to Tues­
day night's All-Star game. "I love 
what I was doing. Many had said 
to me they wanted me to stay in 
some capacity. We argued. The 
rest is history."

acting commissioner for life, after 
all.

Selig decided the best decisions 
are often no decisions.

Selig preferred to wait for a

"I don't accept that criticism," 
he said. "W hen you look back at

most active five years in baseball 
history."

Griffey wins 
homer derby 
over Thome, 
McGwire

Associated Press

DENVER — Junior surprised 
fans at the All-Star Home Run 
Derby, and so did Big Mac.

Ken Griffey Jr., the leading vote- 
getter in fan balloting with more than 
4 million votes, had intended to pass 
up the glamour event at this year's 
Ail-Star Game. But he changed his 
mind after being booed during bat­
ting practice and was a last-second 
entrant and winner.

"I don't like to get booed," Grif­
fey said. "There were 4 million rea­
sons why I did it."

And Mark McGwire, baseball's 
home-run 
leader, expected by 
many to win the competition or at 
least dent the Coors Field score­
board in the mile-high altitude, hit 
just four homers and failed to get 
beyond the first round.

"I like the ball middle in, and 
the pitches were middle away," 
said McGwire, who did thrill the 
fans with a 510-footer — the 
longest of the day.

"So, sorry everybody."
Cleveland's Jim Thome, who 
choked last year in front of the 
hometown fans at Jacobs Field by 
failing to hit one homer, finished 
second to Griffey, who outhome- 
red him in the final 3-2.

Early Monday afternoon, Griffey 
was insisting he would pass up the 
chance to rocket balls through the 
thin Colorado air. He was booed 
loudly the first time he was intro­
duced and fans continued to get on 
him during his BP swings.

But when his name was 
announced as the final AL entrant, 
he received a warm ovation and 
by the time he walked to the plate 
for his first round, many of the 
more than 50,000 were standing.

After connecting eight times to 
advance, he slowly walked back to 
the AL dugout, tipped his cap to 
the fans and hugged his 4-year-old 
son, Trey.

Then it was McGwire's turn. He 
hit two weak grounders before dri-

Juan gunning for record

Associated Press

A RLIN G TO N — O ne of Juan 
G o n zalez's big g est rew ards 
for 
reaching 100 RBIs before the All- 
Star break was a standing ovation 
from the norm ally reserved Texas

G onzalez got

cen ter-field 
the 
slope at The B all­
park in Arlington to tally his 101st 
RBI going into the break. It was his 
second tw o-run hom er of the game, 
both coming off Randy Johnson in 
an 8-4 win over 
the Seattle 
M ariners.

"This was one of the best moments 
of my career," said the normally shy 
outfielder as he beamed a nonstop 
smile after the game.

The 27-year-old A ll-Star right-

fielder is only the second player in 
m ajor-league history to drive in 
more than 100 runs before the 
break, follow ing D etroit slugger 
Hank G reenberg's 103 for the first 
half in 1935.

But it's only a stepping stone to 
one of the gam e's most enduring 
records: Hack W ilso n 's m ajor-
league record 190 RBIs for the 
Chicago Cubs in 1930.

At his current pace, he would drive 
in 188 runs this season, just short of 
Wilson's mark. But then, Wilson had 
fewer than 100 RBIs going into the 
midsummer break.

Still, Gonzalez knows all of the 
variables that could intrude on the 
second half. The previously injury- 
prone slugger's goal remains to play 
in all 162 of the Rangers' regular-sea- 
son games. The rest, he says, will take 
care of itself.

"You never know," he said of the 
Wilson record. "Records aren't easy 
The key is to stay healthy."

So weighty are his injury concerns 
that he decided to skip the home-run 
derby during M onday's All-Star 
workout in Denver.

The assault on Roger Maris' record 
of 61 home runs exudes glamor. Mark 
McGwire of the St. Louis Cardinals 
has 37, the Mariners' Ken Griffey Jr. 
has 35, and the Chicago Cubs' Sammy 
Sosa has 33.

That leaves the Wilson chase exclu­
sively to Gonzalez, whom Rangers 
manager Johnny Oates has described 
as "an RBI machine."

"It's hard to believe Juan has 101 
RBIs," Mariners manager Lou Piniella 
said after Sunday night's loss. "It 
used to be a barometer for a very suc­
cessful full season."

To see just how unapproachable the 
record is, look at Greenberg's 1935 
season. The 103 midterm RBIs ended 
in a season total of 170. Lou Gehrig,

Holland, Brazil to battle in Cup semis

Associated Press

MARSEILLE, France — In art, style and 
history, Brazil and the Netherlands went to 
the same soccer school.

The World Cup sem ifinalists are practi­
cally a mirror image. They have in com ­
mon a relentless attack, a patient ball-con- 
trol midfield, a suspect defense — even a 
m issing lineman on the same side of the 
field.

And, not least, a reverence for the Old 

Masters, from Pele to Johan Cruyff.

Ronaldo and Dennis Bergkamp lead their 
teams Tuesday night in the latest chapter of 
a rivalry rich in history, grudges and a tradi­
tion of soccer artistry.

"We are the teams that have presented the 
best football in the Cup so far," Brazilian 
coach Mario Zagallo said. "This will be lion 
eating lion."

The Netherlands, perhaps the best team 
never to win a World Cup, hopes to build on 
its 2-1 victory over Argentina in the quarter­

finals and defeat the remaining South Amer­
ican squad.

The Dutch, known as the Oranje, had 
their best gam e of 
the Cup against 
Argentina. They showed no signs of a sec­
ond-half wilt and capped the game with a 
show-stopping goal by Bergkamp in the 
final minute.

The Dutch also have a score to settle with 
the 
four-time Cup champions. Brazil 
knocked them out of the 1994 Cup quarter­
finals with a 3-2 victory.

"We know Brazil, Brazil knows us," 
Dutch coach Guus Hiddink said. "It will be 
an interesting contest."

The N eth erlan d s' g o-to p layer

Alex Rodriguez had live homers each. 
Detroit's Damion Easley led off the 
event and managed just two homers, 
one more than Chipper Jones.

Griffey, the 1994 champion, spent 
more than an hour before the event 
started defending his decision to skip it.
"I m ade m y d ecision a m onth

had tried to change his m ind. "Is n 't

"It's not like they held a gun to

They asked me, and I said n o ."

Fortunately, M cG w ire d idn't. In 
fact, M cG w ire has had a difficult 
tim e saying no to anyone lately.

H is pursuit o f M aris' record is the 
talk of baseball, and recently the 
C ardinals placed restrictions on the 
media in order to give M cG w ire a 
break from the constant attention.

"W ell, I d on't know if I'll ever 
enjoy it," M cG w ire said of dealing 
with the press. "T h a t's ju st not m e as 
a person. But I've com e to realize 
that I have to do som ething about it, 
and that I have to talk about it."

Sosa's Chicago C ubs and G onza­
lez's Rangers are both nine gam es 
above .500, but the C ubs trail the 
H ouston Astros by five gam es in the 
NL Central. The Rangers trail A na­
heim by l 1: gam es.

When Gonzalez went without an • 

RBI for six games in a row last week, 
the Rangers lost each game as Gonza­
lez had few base runners to drive in.

But the Rangers won their last two

the Texas offense

"T h ey can do a lot of dam age at any 
m om ent."

But the D utch defense is shaky at 
best. Star fullback Jaap Stam .has 
been a disappointm ent and the left 
sid e o f the line is v u ln erable — 
starter A rthur N um an w as ejected 
against A rgentina and m ust m iss the 
sem ifinal and his replacem ent, W in­
ston Bogarde, broke his leg in prac­
tice Sunday.

look in g for the victory, and run 
risks lik e any team th a t p lay s to

coo rd in ator.

That could also be a d escription of 
the Brazilians, w ho have scored 13 
goals this Cup and allow ed five — 
the best attack and w orst defense of 
any team in the final four.

Designer of smiley face upset as Frenchman 
nabs registered trademark for happy creation

Associated Press

BO S T O N — H arvey Ball did not 
have a nice day recently when he 
learned a F ren ch m a n had re g is­
tered a tradem ark for the sm iley 
face.

As just about everyone in Ball's 
h o m eto w n of W o rce ste r, M ass., 
knows, it w as Ball w ho designed 
the u b iq u ito u s sym b o l of good 
cheer jn 1963 as part of an in-house 
happiness program for an in su r­
ance company.

Franklin Loufrani, a 55-year-old 
e n tre p re n e u r from F ra n ce, first 
registered the symbol in 1971 and 
now holds the trademark in much 
of the world.

Ball, 76, d id n 't find any of this 

out until a couple of months ago.

Then he got really steamed more 
re c e n tly w h e n he le a rn e d th a t 
Loufrani has threatened to sue U.S. 
companies that manufacture or sell 
products w ith the sm iley sym bol 
in the 80 countries where Loufrani 
holds the trademark.

“ So much for smiley and happi­

ness," Ball huffed.

The joyful smiley-face icon has 
made its w a y over the years onto

u
ley and happiness.”

So much for smi­

— Harvey BaH, designer 
of the smiley face

boxer shorts, London drug houses, 
W al-M art products and countless 
e-mail messages.

Loufrani, president of London- 
based Sm iley Licensing Corp., said 
he m ade up the s m ile y w h ile 
working at a French newspaper to 
illustrate positive stories after the 
student riots in 1968. Since regis­
tering the trademark, he has made 
millions.

The p e o p le o f W o r c e s te r — 
which bills itself “ The Birthplace of 
the Sm iley Face" — side with Ball, 
however.

He said he first drew the perky 
y e llo w face in 1963 as p art of a 
"friendship" campaign to ease ten­
sions b e tw e e n e m p lo ye e s afte r 
State M u tu a l L ife In su ran ce Co. 
took over a small Ohio insurer.

Ball, a free-lance artist, was paid 
$45 to com e up w ith a g ra p h ic. 
State M u tu a l printed 100 sm ile y 
buttons. A 1964 State M utual pub­
lication shows company Vice Pres­
ident John Adams wearing one.

Soon requests for tens of thou­
sands of buttons began pouring in. 
F in a lly , B a ll said , the co m p a n y 
stopped printing them in the late 
1960s.

Ball never sought a trademark or 
copyright. He said he doesn't miss 
the m illions he could have made 
on his creation. And he isn't plan- 
ning legal action against Loufrani, 
w h o has a U .S . tra d e m a rk , but 
only for a combination happy face 
and the word "sm iley."

Ball just w an ts re co g n itio n as 

smiley's creator.

" N e v e r

ment, and nothing has ever been 
so s im p ly done and so e a s ily 
understood in art," he said.

L o u fra n i, reached in Lo n d o n , 

had no comment.

Symbol: The Bull 
Birthstones: Turquoise, Sapphire 
Compatible Signs: Cancer, Virgo, 
Capricorn, Pisces 
Dates: April 20 - M ay 20

Taurus is a sign of property and 
money. Its natives put a high regard 
on collecting possessions and know­
ing what is theirs. Scorpio, Taurus' 
opposite sign, is the sign of shared 
legacies and wealth. The wealth of 
Scorpio people tends to be spiritual 
rather than material.

Worship of Taurus' symbol, the 
bull, was celebrated during the 
Taurean Age, which extended from

about 4000 to 2000 b.c. The bull's 
horns represented fertility, growth, 
and generation, much 
like spring, 
when the earth, is fertile and abun­
dant with life. Taureans, who live 
under the first sign of the zodiac, 
appreciate all the good things the 
physical world has to offer. In fact, 
the more beautiful and sensually 
pleasing, the better. Taureans enjoy 
the physical world and adore luxuri­
ous items. Hard work is no problem 
to them to acquire these items.

The motivating force behind 
Taurean actions is acquisition. Their 
practical, down-to-earth qualities 
and their ability to be incredibly 
focused might go to waste if there 
weren't reward behind work. The

patience and tolerance that derives 
from a bull is due in part to a 
Taurean's 
self-reliance. M aking 
steady progress along constructive 
lines and pursuing their goals with 
persistence, w ill power and tenacity 
bring all they desire. Pattern disrup­
tions cause great stress among bulls, 
triggering an impatient and argu­
mentative disposition. Still, the bull­
headed nature of the Taureans still 
makes them affectionate, stable, 
practical and determined to absorb 
all they can from life.

Grasshoppers invade Texas; ravage crops

A s s o c ia t e d P re s s

D A L L A S — Farm ers and green- 
thum bed gardeners alike are b rac­
in g fo r a b u m p e r c ro p o f plant- 
m u n c h in g g rassh op p ers in v a d in g 
Texas.

The flyin g insects are in d is c rim i­
nate in their eating habits, d e v o u r­
in g e v e r y t h in g fr o m fr o n t- y a rd 
flo w e rs to cotton to peaches.

It's enough to le a ve a g ard en er 

in the pit§.

Jo h n s o n C o u n ty C o m m is s io n e r 
R .C . M c F a ll said his pastures w ere 
first. Then came his peach tree.

" T h e y ate it rig h t d o w n to the 
seed and left them hanging on the 
tree," M c F a ll said. " It 's the craziest 
thing I'v e ever seen."

D e n to n C o u n t y re s id e n t Jo y c e 
N u ck les said she has n e arly given 
up on her garden after last ye a r's 
invasion.

" I 'v e got tom atoes and c u c u m ­
bers, and th a t's p r e tt y m u ch it," 
N u c k le s s a id . " T h e c o rn , b e a n s 
and black-eyed peas w e re w ip e d

The tw o a re n 't the o n ly Texans 
fretting about the situation. A b out 
e v e ry co u n ty in the state has been 
o v e rru n . A n d the w o rs t is still to 
cfome.

Jo h n C o o p e r, a D e n to n C o u n ty 
extension agent, said grasshopper 
season w o n 't peak for another tw o 
weeks.

T h at's w h e n each square yard of

la n d is e x p e c te d to be h o s t to 
ab o u t 80 o f the insects, far m ore 
than in an average year.

Entom ologists sa'y a m ild w in te r 
and d ry spring are to blam e for the 
rash o f g ra ss h o p p e rs. T h e w a r m 
w in te r enabled m ore of the bugs to 
hatch and reach adulthood .

The boom ing p o p u la tio n is m ore 
ob vio u s because grasshoppers are 
e a t in g p la n ts o th e r th a n g ra s s . 
D ro u g h t co n d itio n s, w h ic h tra n s­
late to slow er-g row ing grass, h ave 
forced that.

K e r r y B r y a n , a p la n t h e a lt h 
director for the U .S. D epartm ent of 
A g ricu ltu re, said m ore adults h o p ­
p in g a r o u n d n o w m e a n s m o re 
eggs later this sum m er.

E a ch a d u lt fe m a le can la y a n y ­

now until e arly fall.

"It's b u ild in g up to w h a t w e had

through the narration of Dedee.

its blatant mocking of traditional 
movie ploys such as sad m usic,

In addition to creating a witty

Aside from a wonderful script, 
what makes The Opposite o f Sex so

The cast is well-rounded despite 
a few sq u a re pegs (Mr. L o v ett,

lacks something. P erhaps Slayer 
has lost its edge, or more likely 
it is just that everyone has heard 
it all before.

The album is not irredeemable, 
however. There are a few gems, 
but they are few and far between. 
"Love to H a te " has got a k iller

artistic ability that their albums 
h ave a lw ay s o ffered so m e th in g 
new and different within the con­
straints of thrash metal. It is truly

merely run out of material. Dia-

poor album from a band that can 
only be accused of running out of 
steam.
