JOH N’S, Newfoundland (UPI) — Battered by 50-foot waves, the world’s largest oil rig sank in the storm-tossed northern Atlantic Monday. After an all-day search, rescuers abandoned any hope of survival for the 84 crew m em bers, includ­ ing 15 Americans. Helicopter pilot Capt. Mike Clarke said there was no sign of life — “ none other than sea gulls” — when he flew over the site where Mobil Oil Canada’s 35-story-high Ocean Ranger sank in heavy seas 170 nautical m iles southeast of St. John’s. Clarke said he saw only “ a few bodies floating around, a couple of life rafts and various debris.” Other pilots said the only visible signs at the site of the world’s second-worst oil rig d isaster were m arker buoys and an anchor. “ Mobil certainly cannot hold out much hope for survivors,” Mobil president William Mason said after search aircraft returned to base at nightfall. A Mobil supply tug got close enough to ail three lifeboats for the crew to see through the side portholes. Two were empty and there were two bodies in the third, one of which was recovered before the heavy swell carried the craft out of reach, Mobil said. It is the only body recovered so far. Mobil said a “ provisional breakdown” indicat­ ed the rig was manned by 52 Newfoundlanders, 16 other Canadians, 15 Americans and one British citizen. Mobil said the drilling crew evacuated the $50 million rig at 12:15 a.m . CST Monday after send­ ing a “ Mayday” signal reporting a 15-degree list. Mobil operations m anager Steve Romansky said a half-hour later “ there were no sightings of the rig either on radar or visually.” The Ocean Ranger w as the largest semi-sub- mersible drilling rig in the world, m easuring 398 feet long, 262 feet wide and 357 feet high. One hundred feet of it floated above the water. It had been drilling for 14 months in the oil-rich Hiber­ nia field. It was the second worst oil rig disaster in histo­ ry. On March 27, 1980, 123 workers died when an oil platform collapsed in the North Sea. Seventy crewmen were killed when a rig toppled into Chi­ na’s Bo Hai Gulf Nov. 25, 1979. A fleet of planes, Coast Guard vessels and the bulk carrier Gadus Atlántica battled turbulent seas to reach the area, but Coast Guard Capt. Robert Alford said the rescue efforts were se­ verely hampered by the vicious storm that threw up 50-foot high waves. Romansky said that within hours “ three life­ boats and one raft and several bodies and debris were sighted” within a five-mile radius of where the rig was sinking an exploratory well, Hibernia J34, into the Grand Banks. The rig had been equipped with about a dozen life rafts and three fiberglass lifeboats,a torpedo­ shaped vessels which had a covering hatch. Mobil said one of the lifeboats that w as spotted “ in a capsized position,” and another one w as “ stern down,” indicating both had taken on water. Mobil official Susan Sherk acknowledged the Ocean Ranger had experienced a five-degree list last week when one of 16 supporting pontoons “ went slightly out of balance, letting water in or out.” Mobil executives insisted, however, “ there was no connection between what happened and the in­ cident of last week.” Romansky said the “ simple problem” last week was caused when “ a valve was inadvertently left open.” He said it was “ a human error, which w as quickly rectified.” Romansky also said that there were no design problems and the Ocean Ranger should have been able to withstand the winter storm. He said the rig had operated in the North Sea and off the Alaska coast where “ the waters are as storm y a s they are here.” The American Bureau of Shipping gave the rig a “ total inspection” only last June, Romansky said. The Ocean Ranger is a semi-submersible oil rig that gets its stability from pumping seaw ater into ballast tanks. The rig uses propellers to direct itself and floats without the benefit of anchors or legs set on the ocean bottom. Industry officials said a rig of this type is aban­ doned when it lists 15 degrees, because it tips over at 18 degrees. The Mobil rig had been leased from American-owned Ocean Drilling and Explo­ ration Co. In New Orleans, a spokesman for the drilling company said semi-submersible rigs of this type were designed to withstand waves of up to 110 feet. NY firm selected as S TNP builder By DOUGLAS McLEOD Daily Texan Staff Partners in the South Texas Nuclear Project selected a New York nuclear contractor Monday to complete the con­ struction work on the beleaguered project near Bay City. If contract negotiations succeed, Ebasco Services Inc., a New York City- based firm with a large Houston office established in the 1920s, will finish con­ struction at the site, a spokesman for Houston Lighting & Power, the manag­ ing partner in the project, said Monday. Ebasco will pick up where Brown & Root left off when it walked out as builder of the project last fall after be­ ing pulled from architectural and engi­ neering duties by HL&P for alleged in­ competence. Austin owns a 16 percent, 400 mega­ watt share in the project, though voters chose last fall to sell the city’s share. The new builder w as chosen from a group of three construction firm s in the running. The California-based final Bechtel Power Corp., the current project engineer, architect and mana­ ger for the project, w as one finalist, as was Daniel Construction Co. of South Carolina. “ We would have felt equally comfort­ able with any of the three,” said HL&P spokesman Graham Painter, who noted that the selection w as contingent on “ our ability to negotiate a satisfactory contract with E b asco.” Contract negotiations will take place during the next couple of weeks, though a resolution could be m ade within a few days, Painter said. Ebasco is a union contractor, and un­ ion contract stipulations have yet to be worked out, he said. Though all three construction firms had “ im pressive credentials,” he said, Ebasco was selected because it has more resources available. The project partners are hoping to see Ebasco begin work by April 1, he said. Work at the site would begin on a small scale and “ take m ost of the rest of the year or more to get back to the (peak) level” reached about 18 months ago when the project employed 4,000 workers, Painter said. Ebasco is not as well known as Brown & Root because Ebasco builds electric generating power plants exclu­ sively, while Brown & Root builds a wider variety of projects, he said. The company has been either engi­ neer or constructor of 750 conventional power plants and 40 nuclear power plants worldwide, Painter said. Austin Mayor Carole McClellan, who represented Austin at the Monday meeting in Houston, said the selection of Ebasco was a positive step because there would be better quality assurance and quality control. With both Bechtel and Ebasco work­ ing on the project, the partners — which include Austin, HL&P, Central Power & Light of Corpus Christi and the City of San Antonio — will have a sys­ tem that insures higher quality control, she said. “ If you had just one group doing it all, granted you would have only one to blam e,” but with two companies partic­ ipating, either company would not hesi­ tate to tell the other if it was negligent in its duties, she said. “ So you’ve got toe checks and balances.” She said this is a good approach “ con­ sidering som e of the past problems we’ve had with the STN P.” The project is now $3.4 billion over budget and six years behind schedule. Austin Electric Utility Director R.L. Hancock, who also attended the meet­ ing along with City Manager Nicholas Meiszer and City Council m ember Rog­ er Duncan, said, “ this way there will be a little bit more of a separation between quality assurance and construction.” He said that was a prime reason for not choosing Bechtel as the project builder. Another factor that im pressed Mc­ Clellan was the agreement on an incen­ tive-based program. She said this was very different from the fixed-fee, cost- plus program Brown & Root used. “ Brown & Root had a fixed fee for working with toe project, this group will not. The only way they can make money on it is to do it correctly,” she said. is Bechtel the mo§t experienced builder in the nuclear industiy with 90 units operating, and Ebasco is the sec­ ond most experienced with 40 units op­ erating, McClellan said. Hancock said Ebasco is finishing work on two nuclear plants in Florida and Louisiana that are scheduled to go on line next year. The collision with the utility pole in an electrical power resulted blackout in the immediate area, but power was restored later Monday Through a spokeswoman, Weitz declined comment on the incident Monday. Involuntary manslaughter is a third-degree felony punishable by two to 10 years in the penitentiary and/or a fine of up to $5,000. In an unrelated incident, a 25-year- old woman was killed later Monday morning when her car slid into an oncoming lane and collided with a car in the 1300 block of West F irst Street. She was alone in the car at the time of the accident, police said. Pronounced dead at the scene was Katherine A. Hodge, of 1106 Red Bud in Cedar Park. Police said her car, traveling west on First Street, ap­ parently slid on toe wet street and collided with a sedan traveling in the opposite direction. The accident occurred at 7 a.m ., and Hodge was pronounced dead at the scene 20 minutes later by em er­ gency personnel trying to rescue her from the twisted wreckage. The driver of the sedan was treated and released at Brackenridge. The two deaths raised the 1982 Austin traffic fatality toll to six. Bill Rallis a.m ., editor John Schwartz said. The accident occurred at about 2:45 a.m . Monday when Weitz appar­ ently lost control of R allis’ 1972 brown Mustang while traveling west on 29th Street, five blocks northwest of the UT campus, police said. The car veered to the left of the street, jumped the curb and hit a utility pole, police said.

It’s all In the wrist Kevin VandMer, Dally Texan Staff Filing deadline delayed for 16 districts By TINA ROMERO Daily Texan Staff Blaming the U.S. attorney general’s office, a federal three-judge panel in Austin responsible for redrawing state congressional districts Monday delayed the candi­ date filing deadline for 16 of the state ’s 27 congressional districts for the second time. U.S. District Judge Sam Johnson, a m ember of the panel, signed the court order changing the filing dead­ line from Feb. 22 to March 19. The original deadline was Feb. 1. Johnson said the court’s “ ability to function in the best interest of the people of the state of T exas by facil­ itating a timely and orderly elective process a s provid­ ed for by the laws of this state has been substantially impeded. This impediment has been occasioned by the unseemly delay, inattention and inactivity of the office of the attorney general of the United S tate s.” The panel had delayed the original deadline because it still was hearing argum ents in a suit contesting the constitutionality of the congressional redistricting plan drawn by the Legislature. Later, the U.S. Ju stice Department rejected the con­ tested congressional redistricting plan on the grounds that it discriminated against Mexican-Americans in two congressional districts. The task of redrawing the districts was handed to the federal judicial panel. Johnson said the Ju stice Department m ay still alter its objections to the L egislature’s congressional remap plan, which could cause further delays in the court’s decision on a new plan. The filing deadline delay also applies to prospective candidates filing for state Board of Education seats be­ cause the board members are elected by congressional districts. In the sam e order, the court waived the residency requirement for congressional and state Board of Edu­ cation candidates filing in the 16 contested congression­ al districts. The court also ordered parties to the redis­ tricting suit to file by Friday an agreem ent setting any other election deadlines that m ust be changed because of the filing deadline delay. ACLU questions voter equality Report says pre-clearance still needed By GARY RASP Daily Texan Staff Although minorities have m ade progress in voter registration and election to public office since enactment of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, widespread resistance to equal political participation still exists, the American Civil Liberties Union said in a recent report. “ Voting Rights in the South,” a 132-page study of the litiga­ tion and adm inistrative proceedings brought by the southern regional office of the ACLU during the past 10 years, asse sse s the impact of the act and urges its extension. The study was released Sunday. Key provisions of the act are up for renewal in August. The original act, passed by Congress in 1965, prohibited the tactics responsible for the exclusion of blacks from voter regis­ tration and placed supervision of the act in the hands of federal officials. Amended in 1970 and in 1975, the act contains both permanent and special provisions The permanent sections apply nation­ wide, while the special provisions apply only to jurisdictions that meet certain conditions specified in the act. Texas was not included in the original act signed by Presi­ dent Lyndon Johnson, but it was added to the list in 1975 when the act was revised to protect language minorities. Act Section 203 requires jurisdictions, in which a single language minority is more than 5 percent of eligible voters, to conduct bilingual elections and registration cam paigns. Texas. Arizona and Alaska are required to provide bilingual election procedures, as are about 215 counties and townships in several other states Section 5, known a s the “ pre-clearance” requirement, is probably the most important temporary provision in the act. Jurisdictions covered under Section 5 may not implement any changes in voting or election procedures unless they have been pre-cleared by the U.S. attorney general or a federal district court. In either case, the jurisdiction seeking the change must prove that the alteration does not have the purpose or effect of denying the right to vote on account of race, color or m ember­ ship of a language minority. If the jurisdiction cannot meet this burden, pre-clearance must be denied and the change cannot be implemented. Section 5 applies only to areas that previously used a literacy test for voting and in which less than half of the voting-age residents participated in the 1972 presidential election. T exas is one of 22 states that is covered by this provision, which is set to expire in August. In its report, the ACLU contends that there is no evidence that areas covered by Section 5 have m ade voluntary, construc­ tive efforts to eliminate at-large voting or other discriminatory election procedures. Changes that have occurred, the group claim s, have resulted from enforcement of the pre-clearance provision or traditional federal lawsuits. “ The record stow s that pre-clearance is still needed to safe­ guard the equal right to vote,” the report states. In addition to extending the present act, the ACLU says Con­ gress should strengthen enforcement of the act by: giving the U.S. attorney general the duty of monitoring state and local election law changes; and providing dam ages to individuals who have been discriminated against because of a violation of the act. “ The criminal sanctions presently contained in the act have never been used and have thus had no deterrent effect on voting rights violations,” the report states. “ The addition of a dam age provision enforceable by a g ­ grieved persons would provide a strong, new incentive to local officials to comply with the law and escape financial liability.” Jurisdictions m ay exempt or “ bail out” from Section 5 cov­ erage by convincing a federal court that for the preceding 17 years — or fewer if the area becam e covered when the act was revised — no test or device for voting was used with a discrim i­ natory purpose or effect. The U.S. Senate is reviewing testimony concerning extension of the act and will make a vote on extension before Aug. 6. By HECTOR CANTU Daily Texan Staff A University student died early Monday of injuries received when his car, driven by another UT stu­ dent, struck a utility pole in the 1200 block of West 29th Street. William W. Rallis. 23, of 10319 Rutland Village E ast, was pro­ nounced dead at Brackenridge Hos­ pital at 4:30 a.m . Monday after he was taken there by Em ergency Med­ ical Services personnel. Rallis, a business senior, died as a result of head injuries, police said. The driver of the car, Matthew J. Weitz, 23, of 4415 Shoalwood Ave., was treated at Brackenridge for neck injuries and released at 6.37 a.m. Police arrested Weitz at the scene before he was taken to Brackenridge for treatment. Upon his release from the hospital at 6:37 a.m ., he was tak­ en to city jail and charged in Munici­ involuntary man­ pal Court with slaughter. Bond was set at $20,000, but Weitz gained release Monday afternoon on personal recognizance bond. Weitz. an editorial assistant for The Daily Texan, and Rallis, a Texan columnist, were working at the newspaper late Sunday night, staff m embers said Monday The two left the offices at about 1:30 Page 2 □ THE DAILY TEXAN □ Tuesday, February 16, 1982 2405 San Antonio 474-7812 Open Mon-Fri O n f 9 :3 0 -3 :3 0 Hidden in the trees behind Tarings M ISS MOM'S HOME COOKING?

UTmost’s fate nears deadline By M IC H E L L E L O C K E Daily Texan Staff The fate of deficit-plagued U T m o st m agazine is sched­ uled for discussion during the Tuesday m eeting of the Texas Student Publications Board of Operating Trustees. The m eeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. in the photo stu­ dio of the fourth floor of the TSP Building. Since the first issue hit the newstands in fall 1978, U T ­ m o s t has operated in the red, and the magazine faces an es­ tim ated $16.398 deficit this year, Loyd Edmonds, TSP general m anager, said Mon­ day. Overall, TSP expects to have a $1,457 deficit this year, he said. However, M aureen Paskin, l :T m o s t editor, said she ex­ pects a $12.954 deficit for the magazine, based on the m aga­ zine's perform ance so far this year. When the m agazine was es­ that within tablished, a com m ittee ap­ pointed by the board recom ­ mended three years the m agazine’s deficit should not equal m ore than 20 percent of its total expenses. L ast year, another TSP-ap- pointed com m ittee extended L T m o s t's deficit deadline to 1983, Edmonds said. This year deficits are pro­ jected to total 41 percent of expenses. “ I t’s difficult to get out and get the students to buy the said. m agazine,” Edm onds However, m agazine circula­ tion has improved each year and is now a t nearly 4,800. Last year s com m ittee set a circulation goal of one-third of students. “ I think the m ajority of the board really w ants to keep it (the m agazine),” Edmonds said. “ I think it (the m eeting) could go either w ay,” Paskin said.

Weinberger's proposal to sell advanced planes and anti-aircraft missiles to Jor­ dan. Speaking in the Knesset, or Parlia­ ment, Begin presented an array of sta­ tistics on what he called “the mighty, almost unimaginable flow of sophisti­ cated weaponry reaching the Arab states from both the East and the West.” The result of this arms buildup, he contended, was to jeopardize Israel’s qualitative military edge over the Ar­ abs, which Reagan had pledged to maintain. The Knesset then approved a resolu­ tion, voting 88 to 3, with 6 abstentions, expressing “deep concern" over the proposal, which “poses a serious dan­ ger to Israel’s security.” The only oppo­ nents were members of the Communist Party. Shimon Peres, leader of the opposi­ tion Labor Party, joined Begin’s appeal to Washington, arguing that such arms sales “would disrupt the strategic bal­ ance that has existed until now, and by which both Israel and Jordan could ex­ ist with no further conflict.

S. for Polish violence WARSAW, Poland (UPI) - Upset by demonstrations and the weekend dis­ covery of a powerful bomb, officials charged Monday that the United States backs rising resistance to martial law that is pushing Poland toward “civil war.” Police said a 13-pound time bomb they discovered Saturday in Lubin would have caused a “massacre” if they had not defused it and blamed pro­ tests marking two months of martial law in Poznan and Swidnik on leaflets inspired by Washington. “It is not enough for the authors of the leaflets to call for a boycott of work,” said the official Communist Party newspaper Try buna Ludu. “Now they have started to call for con­ spiracy against the authorities, instigat­ ing again adventuristic moods and fix­ ing the dates of the confrontation. “The same forces which before (the imposition of martial law) Dec. 13 pushed the nation towards tragic catas­ trophe have efforted and will continue to effort to use this direction. The whole bitter anti-Polish campaign by Presi­ dent Reagan and his closest allies serves this goal,” it said. Security patrols searched Warsaw residents thoroughly Monday for the clandestine leaflets. A military patrol stopped foreign reporters near the For­ eign Ministry press center and attempt­ ed their dispatches. “Threats are made, (such as) ‘Death to the Reds,’ and they assure that a civil war will take place,” the newspaper said. “ All that forms a definite area of danger.” to confiscate Police found the home-made time bomb at a downtown gas station in Lu­ bin, in southwest Poland, hidden in a shopping bag full of potatoes, the offi­ cial news agency PAP reported.

The dispute focuses on charges that the nation’s largest grain exporters con­ spired with an Agriculture Department official to fix wheat prices in a way that allowed them to “ buy low” from farm­ ers and “sell high” to the Soviets. Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico farmers want the justices to overturn lower court rulings that threw out their antitrust suit against six grain export­ ing firms and former Assistant Secre­ tary of Agriculture Clarence Palmby. The grain companies describe the farm ers’ allegations as “ fanciful claims of conspiracy” unsupported by investigations of “a half-dozen federal agencies and two congressional com­ mittees.” Targets of the suit are Continental Grain Co., Cargill Inc., Louis Dreyfus Corp., Cook Industries, Garnac Grain Co. and Bunge Corp. The dispute had its origins in the win­ ter of 1972, when unusually dry weather in the Soviet Union — followed by light rainfall the following summer — caused a big shortfall in the Soviet wheat har­ vest. At the same time, U.S. wheat farmers produced record surplusses. The farmers claim this prompted Continental to conspire with Palmby “to withhold and suppress from the wheat market the true demand for wheat.” They contend Continental held “a se­ ries of clandestine meetings” with Palmby, during which he was offered a “ lucrative executive position.” “ Having already decided to leave the department for toe private sector, Palmby coordinated and took an active role in the goverament-to-government negotiations (with the Soviets),” they added. When the sales became public, farm­ ers Joe Zinser, John Spearman and Edgar Cleveland filed class action suits on behalf of wheat farmers in their re­ gions, accusing Continental, Palmby and the other firms of engaging in a to restrain “ horizontal conspiracy” trade and monopolize the grain sale. A federal district judge threw out the case on grounds antitrust claims are in­ valid if they are filed by someone who is “ more than one step removed in the distribution chain from the antitrust vi­ olator.” He ruled the farmers “were one step removed” because they did not sell their grain directly to the Soviets, but rather sold to the giant grain compa­ nies, which acted as middlemen. The 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver upheld the decision The justices could decide in the next few weeks whether they will hear the case.

Page 4 Repeat performance turns tragedy to farce By DAVID TEECE “H isto r y r e p e a ts i t s e l f tw ice : the f i r s t t i m e as tr a g e d y , the s e c o n d t i m e as f a r c e . ’’ — G eorg F r e d e r i c k H egel During the Reconstruction era of the 1880s, many blacks and liberal whites believed the race problem in the United States had been solved forever. After all, the civil rights gains following the Civil War were impres­ sive. A black man became a U.S. senator, there was a black governor in Louisiana, and black sheriffs and mayors were scattered throughout the South. But more importantly, the existence of dozens of civil rights laws appeared to settle the issue of racial inequality for good, and these included a federal law protecting voting rights in the South and a national public accommoda­ tions act. Then the backlash began. A national economic crisis developed, unease grew over welfare and taxation for social purposes, a more conservative Supreme Court took shape and an ambivalent new president took off­ ice. Liberal white legislators either lost their stomach for civil rights battles or were voted out of Congress. The foundation for racial equality crumbled, turning the gains of the Reconstruction period into meaningless memories. If Hegel was right, then this part of the story is the tragedy. Now here comes the farce. Almost exactly 100 years later, blacks again began to believe they had a basic framework for equality. Slowly but surely a foothold was gained. A black man became a U.S. senator, blacks were elected as sheriffs and mayors, and once again federal voting rights bills and a public accommodations act were passed. People be­ lieved that racial inequality was gone forever. After all, the groundwork was laid. But history repeats itself. In last October’s issue of E b o n y Magazine, Lerone Bennett Jr. examined the sim ilarities between what he called the first and second Reconstructions, and found “coincidences” all too frequently. The possibility of his­ tory repeating itself on this issue is raising more than just a little concern in the black community. It may be presumptuous to assume that this story will end up as pathetically as the first one did. But the ironies of these periods are too painful to ignore. And the disturbing fact is that we are in the process of writ­ ing the ending to the second story right now. Boiling down the reasons why the civil rights gains of the first Reconstruction turned into a historical tragedy for blacks in America, it becomes clear that the estab­ lished powers responsible for running the country were searching for a political scapegoat. Consciously or not, the government began to obliterate civil rights to bring about more tangible political accomplishments — such as economic stability. Without governmental support, social achievements became impossible. Bennett points out in his article that the sam e social facts usually yield the same results. And if th a t axiom is true, then the country has once again reached a criti­ cal point in its civil rights development. The current administration has repeatedly reassured us that “we will not balance the budget on the backs o f the poor.” But that statement in itself spells out the} political realities of the 1980s. Social accomplishments; no longer bring in votes. Civil rights have been on thel back burner for more than 10 years now.

Hollings of South Carolina is asking sharp questions of those who voted last year for the Reagan tax cuts and now proclaim their anguish at the impend­ ing deficits their votes helped produce. Such questions as: What did they think would happen if they eliminated $750 billion in revenues in only three fiscal years? Didn’t their own Congressional Budget Office tell them that the lost revenues and the huge military spending increases they were approving would total far more than all projected spending reductions? Weren’t they warned by the CBO and numerous economic au­ thorities that the Reagan estim ates of economic growth (4.5 percent after 1982) and declining interest rates (to 8 percent in 1982) were Disneyland figures, so that the lost revenues were not likely to be made up by the promised “supply-side” eco­ nomic boom? Didn’t all that plainly forecast the deficits, possibly totaling $250 billion, in the Reagan budgets for 1982-84? The answer to all those questions is a loud yes. Those who voted for the Reagan tax cuts — 89 senators, 238 representa­ tives, in both parties — either knew all that, or should have known it, or preferred the president’s assurances to the plain warnings plentifully available. Many have only done a quick switch to the anti-deficit bandwagon now. Fritz Hollings, the ranking Budget Committee Democrat, is not among these stunt men, but is too shrewd to engage in recriminations. He voted against the Reagan tax cut and — having expected the worst — was able quickly to come forward with an alternative to Reagan’s 1983 budget. The Hollings budget would freeze military spending, federal pay and Social Security cost-of-living increases; eliminate this year’s 10 percent tax cut, reduce next year’s to 5 percent and repeal other costly features of the 1981 tax bill. All this, Holl­ ings estim ates, would cut the 1983 deficit to an acceptable $42 billion and enable the budget to be balanced by the end of 1984 (as Reagan once promised to do). Here’s the senator’s rationale on the tax cuts: The 10 percent reduction isn’t really needed, since the best econometric projections call for the recession to have ended before then. Eliminating the cut will save about $40 billion in revenues, which otherwise would have to be borrowed at 14 or 15 percent interest. Meanwhile, the investment tax credits voted last year might well have set off enough “ supply-side” economic growth so that the 1983 tax cut couki go through, if reduced from 10 to 5 percent, without increasing the deficit. And here’s his defense of the proposed freeze on military spending: Last December, Congress voted a $31 billion add-on in Penta­ gon budget authority for 1982; another $31 billion for 1983 would represent a 14 percent increase over the two years; actual spending would go up by 2 percent in the sam e period. The 3 percent annual real growth proposed for years beyond that would provide adequately for the military — and would hand the Defense Department as much money as it can efficiently manage anyway. With the Federal Reserve slowly squeezing inflation out of the economy, Hollings believes, the “first order of business” is to “unlock these high interest rates.” To do that, “we don’t need a stimulus and we don’t need these d eficits.” His alterna­ tive budget would be aimed at avoiding both. Before it could become an acceptable compromise, however, some hard swallowing would have to be done on all sides. Pres­ ident Reagan would have to accept the wreckage of his prized income tax cut, the centerpiece of his economic program. Democrats would have to yield to the one-year elimination of cost-of-living increases for Social Security recipients, together with reduced increases in future years. Some Democrats undoubtedly will argue that it would be better to let Reagan drown in his own deficits. But Hollings believes his party is unlikely to “ rise from the economic ashes” unless it can present a “viable Democratic alterna­ tive.” In his view, “economics is the Achilles heel” of the Demo­ crats; in their years of power, the country cam e to expect that they would spend too much and run up big deficits. That was a prime reason for Reagan’s election and it’s why even with unemployment at nearly 9 percent his economic program still has much public support “ Nobody thinks Democrats are going to pay the bills,” the South Carolina senator contends. He’s not the only one who thinks that, and therefore his budget proposals may turn out to be good politics as well as good economics. c 1982 The New York Timet DOONESBURY ‘Texan’ story perpetuates racism at U T By RICARDO NAVARRO In these tim es of growing conserva­ tism, it is unfortunate that the tenor of the article, “ Minority graduates forced, into public jobs,” ( T h e D aily T e x a n ,' 2-11-82) should strike a subtle yet dam­ aging blow to the integrity of minority students at the UT School of Law. This article is an example of the constant' affronts many minorities have to deal; with simply by virtue of being minority* students. \ \ Racism is a deep-seated, emotionally charged issue. Because Mr. Fritschel’s article was brief and superficial it ful­ filled no useful purpose. The problem of racism is a serious one, and it should* not be treated as hot news for one day’s coverage. This article plants in the reader’s mind a series of connections which are poorly supported. Interspersed between statistics concerning minority GPAs, job placements and salaries are “sup­ portive” paragraphs based on personal opinion, rumor and generalization on these subjects. For example, Mr. Bernal’s theory of needing to fit a mold to be successful at the school is highly debatable. The idea conveyed to a careless reader is that if one does not fit the mold one lacks mo­ tivation. A more careful reader might draw the conclusion that students can become discouraged if they feel alienat­ ed — do not fit the mold — but that is quite different from saying that they lack motivation. The word “motivan tion” cuts too deep; law students as a group are not lacking in motivation. Mr. Hall’s comments add little sub­ stance to the article. To say that dis­ crimination is a general problem every-* where does not tell us anything. His* attribution of minority underachieve­ ment to cultural differences and under­ graduate background implies that these are handicaps. Cultural homogeneity is not a requisite for achievement, and the diversity of undergraduate backgrounds within the law school is not a culturally dependent variable. Under the guise of informative re­ porting, this article undermines the confidence of minorities in their ability to excel as students and lowers expecta­ tions in general of their capacity for ac-’ ademic achievement. Fritschel should be aware that he is perpetuating a ster­ eotype of minorities as second-class students. If the T e x a n wants to write about racism at the law school, it would do better to make a careful and deliber­ ate analysis, rather than giving us sen- sational articles such as this one.______ N a v a r r o is a law s tu d e n t. by Garry Trudeau INRON6 AS USUAL.CPU.

Let’s face it: we keep hearing how great these bands are not because of any qualitative standards but be­ cause they are so safe. Most mega-groups make music that’s about as dangerous as mother’s milk — although you can, if you want, dance, make love or sleep to them. Rock ‘n’ roll at its very greatest is dangerous stuff, because it is unknown and unknowing. At its best, it in­ volves hot lights, sweaty bod­ ies and dancing all night long, neither knowing nor caring where you are going to end up. Rock ‘n’ roll, at its very greatest, is just the kind of music that makes terms like “ greatest” laughably so meaningless because it is so the recent reissue of the Shaggs album, that they’ve jammed with Jonathan Rich- man and that of the eight al­ bums they've issued one was a collaboration with rock pio­ neer Carl Perkins and another with country star Skeeter Davis — but that still doesn’t go far enough. NRBQ are music-loving crazies who seem to know every rock or even near-rock song ever recorded, as well as a healthy percentage of ev­ erything else that’s ever been committed to vinyl. At their most inspired, they mix it all together, shake it up and pro­ duce magic. They never work from a play list, but start out each gig as a new wild adven­ ture — and audience partici­ pation is a vital link in that adventure. At each show, on­ lookers put song names into a box. and the band plays each one. I don’t want to appear too obsessive Tuesday night so I will drop the hint: it would be nice to hear them do a Sun Ra song (they actually recorded one, but that’s an­ other story), any Shaggs tune and “ Roadrunner.” Personal­ ly, I ’m going to request “ Spir­ it in the Sky” and any Bobby Fuller Four song that crosses their minds. p i M i r t f t R g l K ■ O ' S T E A K E R Y \ s n ^5 * S A L O O N ÑIGHÍ HAPPV* HOURf wndiU / ~ O rrhjfffJfjj / JO J z r z r Or join us weekdays 2:30-6:30 p.m. Featuring doubles for the price of singles, 175 frozen margaritas, 75C wine, 85C domestic & 110 imported beer.

Well, Tuesday night at Club Foot holds the potential for just that kind of rock n’ roll, because NRBQ will be head­ lining. This band has been to­ gether for over a dozen years just weird and enough, just talented enough and just in love with rock n’ roll enough (and ready to stay they are out all night any night to prove it), that you can never be quite sure what is going to happen at one of their con­ certs. At one time NRBQ stood for New Rhythm and Blues Quartet, but that doesn’t even begin to explain the band. It does help some to point out that they were responsible for L O S T HI GHWAY - By DENNIS NOWLIN Daily Texan Staff To say that emmajoe’s is a nightclub is an understatement. To say it is a haven from the storm of local musical mediocrity would be hyperbole. But emmajoe’s is a valuable part of the Austin music scene because the musi­ cians who play there offer an almost complete live history of Texas country music. The club’s name is derived from the first names of early century radicals Emma Goldman and Joe Hill. Gold­ man, along with a quote reading: “ If I can’t dance, I don’t want to be a part of your revolution,” graces the back of the emmajoe’s T-shirt. Ironic, since you can’t dance there, but emmajoe’s realizes the fact that mirth and a love of life is revolutionary, especially in America today. Co-trustees Martin Wiginton and Bobbie Nelson say they want to offer a place for people — especially Universi­ ty students and employees, for whom they will offer a noon-to-6 p.m. happy hour through February — to get togeth­ er and swap ideas during the day, as well as listen to musically encased ide­ as at night. In the daytime, the club is an open forum for almost any activity — from card-playing to informal class­ es and discussions. Emmajoe’s is also a club that asks for some measure of respect for the performers, the theory being that there are other places to drink and talk loudly. The musical format is as varied as the people who pass the auditions. “ We want anyone that sings on sub­ jects other than one-to-one pairings or sexist songs. If they sing those kind of songs here, they only sing them once,” said Nelson. In short, the people at em­ majoe’s want to nurture personal, so­ cially conscious musicians that don’t or can’t play elsewhere. Coming under this heading: the Jim m ie Rodgers- based country blues of B ill Neely (who was first chord by Rodgers); the fresh country arrange­ ments of Rank and File (who at one time played almost solely at the old Alamo Lounge — emmajoe’s’ prede­ cessor — because it was the only club in town to give them a chance); the Lubbock sound of Butch Hancock and Jimmie Gilmore; the beautiful, soulful Lucinda; and a host of others that are too numerous to mention. In the future, emmajoe’s plans to begin live taping and possibly live broadcasts on some as yet unspecified radio station. This is heartening, since some of the perform­ ers at emmajoe’s represent the best that Austin has to offer. And if the taught his quality of the acts — and booking poli­ cy — stays high, then emmajoe’s lives up its namesakes stood. to everything for which The Texas Noteables Museum is an exciting new development in Texas music. Already the publishers of a newsletter of the same name, creators Leon and Chic Carter, apparently want to give every person involved in Texas country music — famous or not — their due. “ We plan to feature Texas coun­ try from A to Z — the people and the instruments,” says Leon Carter, who has played in bands with Lefty Frizell and Johnny Bush. The planned muse­ um deserves (and will recieve) further discussion, but the fact that it exists, and no one involved is a famous name, make for thrilling possibilities. The newsletter is “ fanzine” in for­ mat and is free. It catalogs the Texas country scene quite adeptly and is fresher than most professional country magazines in its approach. The most current issue features a story on John­ ny Bush, explains the presence of the big cement guitar on North Lamar Boulevard and has a reprint of a fine story that ran in the Pflugerville Pflash recently.

'Break' snorkel trip to explore Caribbean The Mexican state of Quintana Roo lies along the east coast of the Yucatan peninsula on the Caribbean Sea. Coral reefs, tropical fish, white sand beaches, palm trees, balmy breezes, and clear, blue-green waters describe this tropic setting. A REC SPORTS group will be there this Spring Break snorkeling, beach­ combing, exploring, and relaxing along the coast. The style of this trip is more akin to Robinson Crusoe than Fantasy Island. For six nights, we’ll be staying at KaiLuum, a camptel on the beach about 35 miles south of Cancún at Punta Bete. Each tent is fully furnished with daily maid service, though no telephones, TV, or electricity are present. While snorkeling is the main activity, the trip will explore the Mayan ruins at Tulum and Coba, the Underwater Recovery Museum at Akumal, and any­ thing else that looks interesting. Some snorkeling sites include the Punta Bete reef offshore from KaiLuum, Akumal, the national underwater park at Xel-Ha lagoon, and Xcaret. No previous snorkeling experience is required; a snorkeling clinic will be held before the trip in Gregory Gym Pool. A trip fee of $360 ($400 Non-UT) includes round trip airfare from Houston to Cancún, the snorkeling clinic, guides, lodging and meals at KaiLuum, and ground transportation in Mexico. Sign-ups are going on now in Bellmont Hall 104. Payment is required with registration, which could be subject to change due to an increase in airfare or lodging. For more information, call 471-1093 or PAX 2055.

But how and where, and how much will it cost? A student s budget is limited, so when something is wrong with your car, what do you do? Of the many garages and mechanics in town, how do you choose the best and the cheapest? Some people are fortunate enough inclined to have mechanically friends. Good for them. But what of those who aren't so lucky? Where do they turn? The Better Business Bureau is one service that may be helpful. Af­ ter finding a nice-looking advertise­ ment in the Yellow Pages, call the BBB and determine if the place has been complained about before. The BBB will even give tips on how to avoid rip-offs. And if someone does m anage to rip you off, call the BB B and complain. Not only will they put it on record, they will also check out the establishment and try to rem e­ dy the situation. The Attorney General s Office of Consumer Protection offers servi­ ces sim ilar to the BBB. The attor­ ney general also writes a Consumer Alert Column in sm all newspapers, which som etim es concerns auto m e­ chanics. The Independant G aragem en’s Association has information about mechanics registered with it, said Mary Hardesty of the attorney gen­ eral's office. The Consumer Infor­ mation Center in Pueblo, Colo, also has information about avoiding rip- offs and finding reliable mechanics.

Pag* 2 • Car Care Guide Knowing the lew reduces anxiety By ROBERT EBERLE How many times has this happened to you? You’re sit­ ting at an intersection waiting for the light to turn green and a police car pulls up behind you. You know you haven’t been speeding or run any red lights, yet your usually re­ laxed body suddenly becomes a tensed bundle of nerves, and your skin becomes clammy and cold. Your breath shor­ tens, beads of sweat break out on your forehead, and your mind desperately searches the exterior of your car for the slightest discrepancy. Your eyes nervously glance in the direction of your in­ spection sticker and you hope that one of your tail lights isn’t out. Suddenly you re­ member that you needed new tires about two months ago. You shudder at the thought of that police officer’s pencil scribbling a long list of viola­ tions. Congratulations. You have needlessly reduced yourself from a rational, confident hu­ man being to a frantic bundle of tissue. If you have ever gone through the above situation it was probably because you aren’t informed about Texas laws on car maintanence. Many aren’t sure what the laws are or refuse to obey them. The Motor Vehicle Inspec­ tion Division of the Depart­ ment of Public Safety esti­ mates approximately 25 percent of the cars submitted for inspection each year are required to have some type of work done before they pass inspection, and an estimated 50 percent of cars on the road today violate some Texas mo­ tor vehicle law. If you aren’t sure whether your car is one of them, here are some of the most basic, yet commonly overlooked de­ tails. Your car must have: • One mirror that reflects the highway for at least 200 feet. • Working turn signals. • Lighted rear license plate. • Windshield wipers in good working order. • A sound muffler and ex­ haust system (no holes where fumes can leak out). • A horn audible for 200 feet. lights. lights. • Two functioning head­ • Two functioning tail • Front seat belts. Also, you must now carry in your car proof of liability in­ surance that shows type of coverage, policy number and the date that your policy ex­ pires. A copy may be carried instead of the original. If you have questions con­ cerning motor vehicle law jo u can get a copy of the motor vehicle inspection laws hand­ book at a library or contact the Department of Public Saf- tey. If your car violates one or more of the laws, save your­ self some money and embar­ rassment by having it fixed promptly. Then, next time a police officer pulls up behind you, you can breath easily and smile confidently. Take precautions on trip to Mexico By ANN WHITTINGTON The driver closed his eyes as he came within inches of bitting a truck that was going the wrong way down a one­ way street. Cars rushed by him on either side, honking furiously. He switched lanes frequently, rarely looking to his right or his lqft as he did so. If the above sounds like a horror story, take heed. Driv­ ing in Mexico is dangerous, ,and there are some definite rules to know before planning a trip. Car insurance is one of the most important things to have with you in Mexico. An accident in Mexico is considered a federal offense, so it is best to take some pre­ cautions. There are several places to purchase Mexican insurance, one being the American Auto­ mobile Association office (AAA). The price is $2.21 a day for liability insurance, which is what AAA recom­ mends Another problem tourists should consider is the gaso­ line situation. Prices have doubled to $1.60 for unleaded gasoline and 70 cents for regu­ lar. The low octane Mexican gasoline won’t ruin the en­ gine, but it is not the best thing to use for your car. If you use Mexican gasoline, use premium grade or mix half regular with half a tank of unleaded The car will have some knocks and pings, but these disappear when Ameri­ can gasoline is put back into the engine. If you do have problems in Mexico, look for the Green Angels. This organization pa­ trols Mexico’s major high­ ways in green vehicles, look­ ing to give service to disabled vehicles. Wayne King, spokesman for AAA, said the Green Angels have very competent mechan­ ics who can help get the tour­ ist’s car started again about ‘‘80 percent of the time.” They can get you to a service station if you need to buy tires (They do have American brands) or they can do most minor repairs. Auto care calendar Attention preserves car By CATHY TABOR Here are a few preventive maintenance tips to follow, month by month, to help save your precious transportation from the tow truck. According to Dale Martinets of B ill Talley ’s Delwood Exxon, here is what to do: JANUARY - Check the oil about every other tank full, or have someone at the service station check it for you. H ie dip stick under the hood has a marking for “ full” and one for ' low.” which means the car is a quart low on oil. Changing time for oil varies depending on car make and driving hab­ its, but every 3,000 miles is a good general guideline to change the oil and to have the car greased. Make sure the ml filter is changed along with the oil. FEBRU A R Y — A new Texas law requires that drivers carry proof of liability insurance in their car at all times. While this tip may not help to keep your car running smooth- ly.it could alleviate the headache of a fine from the “ boys in blue Tires are very important hi maneuvering an automobile, and do not hug the road as well when they are low on air. They should be checked with an air gauge every three to four tanks of gas. Special attention should be given to radial tires-they tend to seep. MARCH — Get ready for the rainy season by checking your windshield wiper blades. A good set lasts five to six months depending on use. If the wipers make the windshield streaky or if the rubber is tom or worn down, better get some new ores. A PR IL - This is a good time to make sure the air condi­ tioning is in good working order before the weather gets too hot. If the air output is not cool, check the freon. Check the coolant in your car, too. MAY — If you have been neglecting your Yjnyl roof and car interior, now is the time to make amends. A product such as Armour-all w ill clean, moisturize and protect both the roof and vinyl interior. JU N E — Check your radiator for leaks in the reservoir system. It should be full-if not, it probably has a leak. This is important for keeping your car cool during the hot Texas summers. JU L Y — There are several belts under the hood which drive the air conditioner, alternator, fan, power steering and air pump. These should be checked periodically by a service station attendant. Also, keep an eye mi your inspection sticker. Give your­ self enough time to replace parts that do not pass inspec­ tion. AUGUST — Time for a brake check. Newer model cars have a plastic reservoir for the brake fluid, thus making it visible to the mechanic when he checks under your bred. Older models do not have this feature and should be checked every three to four fill-ups. Provided your car is washed mice a week, it should be waxed once a month. This ret only helps the car stay clean­ er, but it protects the paint from the elements and exposure. SEPT EM BER — Now it’s a good time to check out the heating system, and to check mi your car’s anti-freeze. A mixture of half water and half anti-freeze is best, since 100% anti-freeze can freeze. OCTOBER — Lend a watchful eye to your transmission. Fluid should be changed every 25,000 miles, and should be checked every three to four tanks of gas. Note also the expiration date on your license plates. NO VEM BER — For a good start, keep batteries filled to the proper level. From personal experience, I can assure you that they w ill not work without it. Some batteries, how­ ever, do not need water. Keep an eye mi your battery’s indicator to keep tabs on how strong the charge is. D EC EM BER — To finish the year in style, give your trusty Chevy (BMW, etc.) a tune-up. Spark plugs and timing can make quite a difference in the performance of your car. It should be tuned about every nine months, depending on your driving habits. Happy trails. Tuned car a financial pleasure By KRISTIN KEENAN An automobile, like the human body, brings most pleasure to its owner when it is finely tuned. A small investment of time and money can help you get maximum efficiency from your car How often you should tune your car depends mostly on its age, says Robert Romines of Tune Smiths Inc. Cars with electronic ignitions require a tune-up every year, while those with conventi­ onal ignitions require one every six months. If you know how and are willing to shop around for parts, doing a tune up yourself saves money, says David Hall of Wayne Bull East Side Car Parts. “ You can usually find quality parts at good prices by looking in the newspa­ per. Depending on what you buy, you should spend anywhere from $18 to $25,” he said. Hall suggests stocking up on parts when you find some at a good price. If grease under the nails isn’t for you, there is always the option of tak­ ing your car to one of the many service stations, garages and shops that offer tune-ups. Places that specialize in tune-ups are usually the cheapest way to go. In Austin, the least expensive of these shops is Dyna-Tune Tune-up Center at 38 Vz Street and IH 35. It charges $29.90 for four-cylinder cars and $34.50 for six- and eight-cylinder cars. When shopping around for the lowest prices on car repairs, you should check a company out with the Austin Better Business Bureau. An unsatisfactory B B B record for handling customer complaints may go along with the low prices. Tune Up Masters, with several Aus­ tin locations, had the most costly tune- ups among companies contacted. They charge $49.95 for all autos. Service stations and garages vary in their prices, but most are more expen­ sive than the tune-up shops. You can pay anywhere from $30 to $100 at ser­ vice stations. Some stations will not quote a price until a mechanic deter­ mines exactly what parts are needed. Spark plug wires, as well as the cap and rotor, should be checked and re­ placed if needed. The carburetor should also be inspected. Be careful to note exactly what you’re getting for your money because one person’s idea of a basic tune-up can be quite differ­ ent from another’s. Car clubs offer highway help By MONA CUENOD So there you are, stranded on the highway somewhere between Brown- field and Odessa with steam billowing from under your hood. Of course, you are not a mechanic, and the last gas station you passed was a few miles up the road. You think to yourself, “ If only I had joined that auto club I read about last week.” The American Automobile Associa­ tion, Montgomery Wards Auto Club and Gulf Auto Club offer similar emer­ gency travel services. AAA will tow your car, change flat tires, bring gasoline, help you start your engine and pay for unlocking your car if you lock your keys in it. With AAA’s Century Service, ser­ vicemen will pull your car out of a ditch, or whatever you happen to be stuck in, provided it does not require more than two service vehicles for more than one hour. They will also tow you up to 100 miles to the nearest facil­ ity. The Wards Auto Club card will pay up to $50 for towing to any gas station and provides up to $300 for emergency travel expenses. Gulf has an emergency road and tow service which pays up to $30 per inci­ dent and, like AAA, helps you break into your car when you lock the keys inside. If your car is stolen or broken into, Gulf offers a $200 theft reward. Accidental death and injury insur­ ance is included in AAA, Wards and Gulf memberships with benefits rang­ ing from $1,000 to $10,000. Bail bonds for most vehicle offenses are also available. In addition to emergency aid, the auto clubs offer maps, touring guides with direct routes through the areas in which you are traveling, campground and park locations, and road construc­ tion and detour information. Discounts of up to 10 percent are available at specified hotels and motels. AAA, Gulf and Wards have toll free numbers, making them an easily ac­ cessible source of travel information. AAA’s annual membership fee is $33 per year, with a $10 entrance fee and an option to purchase the Century Ser­ vice or other benefits. Gulf and Wards memberships cost a flat rate of $33 per year for all available services. Car Cara Guide • Paga 7 Diesels swap speed for economy Smoke, smell don't deter cost-conscious buyers By DOUGLASS A. REED Smelly, noisy cars that smoke a lot attract many buyers during times of es­ calating fuel and automotive costs. They’re diesels from foreign automakers, most no­ tably Volkswagen, and Gener­ al Motors. The diesel engine has been around many years, but main­ ly for industrial and farming machines. This began chang­ ing when the Environmental Protection Agency made it more difficult for domestic automakers to produce big gasoline engines. Importers saw the chance to introduce their diesel engines to the United States. What makes diesel an alter­ native to the gasoline engine? The engine bums a diesel fuel, easier to refine, which accounts for its lower cost in some areas. Diesel is also more efficient than gasoline where weight of the diesel en­ gine is less important than economy and power. D iesels have fewer parts — no spark plugs, condensers, points, dis­ tributors, coils or carbure­ tors. D iesels use fuel injec­ tors and a hot, glowing plug for ignition. Instead of intro­ ducing a fuel and air mixture into the diesel engine cylin­ der, only air is compressed and the fuel is injected, ignit­ ed by the hot glow plug in­ stead of a spark plug. For this Basic car maintenance often pays for itself By JILL HINCKLEY Basic car care — having oil, tires and brakes checked — could help you save fuel and avoid major car repairs. Alfred M. O’Rear, auto me­ chanics teacher at Johnston High School, suggests an oil check once a month. O’Rear said this is easy to forget when an owner fills up at a self-serve. “Oil lubricates and cools the engine,’’ said Shawn D. Adams, an auto mechanics student at Tarrant County Junior College in Fort Worth. “ If there is not enough oil, the car could blow a rod or stick a piston. If the car blows a rod, the engine would have to be replaced she said. Adams said that if the oil isn’t changed when needed, there could be major wear on the engine. “Tires need to be checked once a month,’’ said O’Rear. “ Adequate air in the tires prevents tire wear and uses less ga s,” said O’Rear. Adams said that getting im ­ tires rotated annually proves life of the tire because of more even wear on tires. O’Rear suggested having brakes checked every 25,000 m iles. He said that if the brakes wear down too low, disc rotors may have to be re­ placed. Disc rotors run from $50-$100 each. Adams advises checking - the master brake cylinder for plenty of brake fluid. Adams said that the car may be low on brake fluid or there may be air in the brake line is if the brake pedal “soft” or goes down to the floor. This is repaired by bleeding air from the brakes. O’Rear said that a tune-up is needed every 10,000 m iles on a standard ignition and about 20,000 m iles on an elec­ tronic ignition. “Generally a tune-up will pay for itself in savings of fuel used,” said O’Rear. A tune-up basically consists of adjusting timing and re­ placing bad parts such as spark plugs, fuel filter, dis­ tributor cap, rotor, points and condenser. “If points are bad, you don’t get good gas mileage. If spark plugs are bad, the en­ gine m isses.” said Adams. O’Rear said that it is im­ portant to have anti-freeze in a car year round. In winter, lack of anti­ freeze could result in a broken engine block which could cost from $500 to $800 in repairs, said O’Rear. O’Rear said that since anti­ freeze does not boil as fast as water, it keeps your car from the hotter in overheating months. Adams stated that anti­ freeze should be flushed out annually to prevent corrosion and to maintain a mixture of 50 percent anti-freeze and 50 percent water. reason, high grade fuel is not needed in a diesel. A diesel engine costs more, is heavier than a gasoline en­ gine, and certain aesthetic quirks bother people. One. A diesel engine sounds bad, as if something is not as tight as it should be. What it really is doing is burning the cheaper fuel in a way ahat resembles “pinging” in gasoline cars. The other quirk is the sm ell diesel leaves behind. The sm ell is not very pleasant, but neither is the sm ell of gaso­ line engines when they are out of tune. Take away sound and odor and you have a more marketable car. and engine Dusty Rhodes of Lamar Volkswagen said the diesel has caught economy-minded drivers because of superior mileage life. Rhodes said all Volkswagens get good m ileage, with the leading all models Rabbit since its introduction in 1977. Some Rabbits top 50 m iles per gallon the highw ay. Rhodes said durability also on plays a major role. Diesel en­ gines, smaller and having fewer moving parts, have a long life span compared with conventional engines. Com­ bine exceptional m ileage with durability, Rhodes said, and many buyers see the diesel as the economical choice. The only disadvantage that Rhodes found: acceleration is not up to what Americans ex­ pect. Rhodes said most people who buy diesels compromise for better mileage. General Motors began mar­ keting diesel cars in 1977, but only recently on a large scale. Oldsmobile has been the focus of GM’s diesels, with the Olds 88, 98, Cutlass and Toronado. Jim Ferris of Charles Maund Oldsmobile-Cadillac suggests much different reasons for his customers buying diesels. Ferris said many people go diesel without a good reason other than novelty: " They buy a diesel Olds 98 just as they would a fancy pair of cowboy boots.” He said they in realize an improvement less mileage is there, but other than that, a diesel is just a fad with them. Oldsmobile has enjoyed than Volkswagen, mainly because it converted a gasoline engine to diesel. Volkswagen’s en­ gine was designed for passen­ ger cars. success The primary problem with GM’s engine, said Ferris, is water condensation in the en­ gine. Because diesel is less refined than gasoline, w a tef from the fuel condenses in­ side the engine. Diesel trucks use filters to remove water before the fuel enters the cyl­ inder. This isn’t practical for passenger cars, Ferris said, because of added weight. In­ stead, many stations selling diesel fuel install filters on the pumps to ensure no water reaches the fuel tank. Choice becomes a question of trade-offs. Sacrificing ac­ celeration and aesthetics for mileage and lower fuel bills may outweigh paying for a more comfortable, quicker car.

Have the mechanic com e to you. Mediantes on Wheels Inc. has been making ‘car calls” in the Austin area for five years. Manager John Mugno says that Mechanics on Wheels w ill go anywhere from dorms to chirk, lonely roads to help you fix your car. “ We’ve made trips as far away as San Marcos, Round Rock and Bastrop,” said Mugno. For calls outside the Austin city lim its he charges for how long it takes to get to the c m , plus the base fee. Mugno said that m ost calls are in the Austin area and usually deal with ignition problems. “Most of the tim e the car just won’t turn over, and we end up fixing the starter,” he said. “ But w e will also do minor tune-ups.

But is your ca r really ready for the journey? Car c a re preparations should begin before startin g any journey — reg a rd ­ less of distance. D epartm ent of Public Safety spokes­ man David Wells advises checking b at­ tery, tires, windshield w ipers, w iper fluid level and oil before vacation tra v ­ el. These checks can be perform ed without charge a t full-service stations while you w ait. Checks of chassis lubri­ cation, hoses, drive belts, brake fluid level, shock absorbers and steering a re also suggested as a preventative m ea­ sure against breakdowns or accidents. P roper c a re can also aid the m otor­ ist in saving dollars and fuel. With tune-ups and oil changes every 6,000 miles or six m onths, the engine will function properly and save gasoline. P roper wheel alignm ent allows the ca r to track in a straight line. “ Up to 5 percent fuel savings can re ­ these precations,” taking sult from said Wells. When the accelerato r touches the floor, sirens blare. Not only has fuel been w asted by excessive speed, but a citation could also be in store. So, to economize, travel at low speeds with slow, steady acceleration and decel­ eration to help lessen fuel consum p­ tion. Once the c a r is in shape for travel, careful drivers pack additional item s including a fully inflated spare tire, an extra can of oil, duct tape for connect­ ing broken hoses and jum per cables to rem edy dead batteries. Flashlight and flares a re helpful in em ergencies. To prevent passengers from being injured in an accident, seatbelts, both lap and shoulder, should be worn a t all tim es, Wells said. A first aid kit is helpful in m inor m edical problem s. The tra v e le r’s pocketbook could also feel a little pain unless a certain docu­ m ent is carried in the car. House Bill 197, passed in the last Texas legislative session, com pels drivers to possess proof of liability insurance in their ve­ hicle a t all tim es while traveling. Mo­ torists stopped by DPS officials and who lack proof of insurance will be warned until M arch 1 on their first of­ fense, said Wells. A fter this date, or if previous w arn­ ings have been given, a citation will result, he said. Like liability laws, other devices are designed to protect m otorists. A Citi­ zen’s Band radio can be plugged into a lighter or attached under the dash­ board. These radios have a special channel for making em ergency con­ tact. Wells advises women as well as solo trav elers to use a CB radio. Cars, like people, do have occasional sicknesses or problem s. Take the steam y engine. P recautions a re as fol­ lows: Do not raise the hood of the car or rem ove the rad iato r cap until it cools down or stops steam ing.

But when monthly payments exceed $200, some abandon convenience and opt for econ­ omy. Alternatives are available for those willing to tolerate a little inconvenience and a lot less luxury. The University Co-Op Bike Shop, at 505 W. 23rd St., has a variety of bicy­ cles and accessories. The shop handles such brands as Fuji of Japan and Puch of Eu­ rope. They range in price, from $169 to well over $1,000. Financing is also available through the Co-Op at 6 per­ cent interest for a nine-month period. To get where you’re going a little faster, try a moped. Mopeds accelerate up to 35 miles per hour and get about 90 to 100 miles per gallon of gas. The U niversity Co-Op Moped Shop at 4101 Guadalupe St. also offers financing through the Co-Op at 6 per­ cent. These motorized bikes are priced from $475 for a one-passenger to $800 for a two-seater. The Co-Op Moped Shop also carries used mopeds starting at $300 Mopeds require a special state license. So before pur­ chasing vour moped, check into this requirement. Honda Motorcycles, 1901 E. First St., offers another alter­ native that links speed with economy. Motorcycles have long been favored for their impressive gas mileage. The new Honda Express, priced at $369, is ideal for use on and off campus. Honda will finance a motorcycle for stu­ dents 18 years or older through Austin National Bank. The interest is 20-24 percent on the unpaid bal­ ance. If you’re still not convinced you can’t live without a car, then try to save on gas. The UT shuttle bus provides trans­ portation throughout the UT area. This service is free to UT - students. The shuttle buses run from 6:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily. Stops are made at designated points every six to ten minutes between 7 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. After 5:30, buses stop about every 35 minutes. A list of routes and schedules is available from the Main Building informa­ tion desk and the Texas Union lobby. isn’t going your way, try a city bus.

Larry Kolvoord, Daily Texan Staff Bureau hears car complaints By MARK MAGUIRE If the mechanic repairing your car gives you a "five o’clock surprise,” don’t blame the Better Business Bu­ reau Inc. A 5 o'clock surprise is when a busi­ nessman hands you a bill amounting to more than you originally bargained for, said John S. Etchieson, president of the BBB in Austin. There are other trade tricks that leave customers on the dirty end. and the BBB has means of dealing with them. Etchieson said that of the estimated 350 auto repair concerns around Aus­ the BBB Business tin, 172 are on Roster, a free list available to anyone. These are shops that agree to the 10 standards of the BBB code of mem ber­ ship and keep them When they don’t, they are bumped from the roster and may no longer exhibit the BBB badge. Tune-ups To qualify, a business must serve six months without a customer complaint. Should a complaint be registered, the BBB sees to its settlement, and the tri­ al period begins again. Etchieson said 85 percent of custom­ er complaints are settled before going to arbitration. Better Business Bu­ reaus have functioned since 1912, and level-headedness or threats of public exposure and expulsion from the Bu­ reau have usually been enough to fix m atters. In 1974, the Austin BBB began pro­ viding the option of arbitration at no cost to dealer or customer. A disinter­ ested middleman acts as judge in the unreconciled cases, and his decision is final. Middlemen must be 18 years or older, and have undergone a three-hour BBB indoctrination. Political affilia­ tions do not m atter. Etchieson expects around 115 com­ plaints to go to arbitration in 1982. Of these, 25 to 30 will be related to auto repair. The BBB arbitrations have a 98 percent success rate. The other 2 per­ cent have resulted in businesses’ disho­ n o ring being scratched from the roster. So far. arbi­ tration has decided 40 percent in cus­ tomer favor, 40 percent for business and 20 percent going to a split-settle- ment, Etchieson said. a g re e m e n ts and The BBB services are fivefold: to settle complaints, report on business reputations, issue information on char­ itable organizations, investigate adver­ tising and provide consumer education on shady business practices. There are 2,000 Central Texas busi­ nesses registered with the BBB in Aus­ tin. It is funded by dues based on a business’ number of employees. The average due is about $120 per year. The BBB invites tax-deductible donations. VOLKSWAGEN REPAIR Engine Overhaul MUS! S A V I M TS OF CAS S '*! O v ar 1 0 0 M .I .0 .
