Dole outlines plan for tax cut

Associated Press 

‘ 

------- ------------------------------------

C H IC A G O 

M akin g a bold bid to ca p tu re a 
skeptical p u b lic's attention, Bob D ole proposed a 
$548 billion tax cut and asserted M onday he could 
balance the budget at the same time and "finish the 
job Ronald Reagan started."

Laying out the details of his campaign centerpiece, 
Dole proposed cutting the income tax rate 15 percent 
across-the-board, halving the capital-gains tax rate 
and g iv in g lo w er and m id d le-in co m e fam ilies a 
$500-per-child tax credit. He also vowed to "end the 
IRS as we know it as part of his long range plan for 
a "sim pler, flatter and fairer" tax system.

"A s of this moment, Bill Clinton and his party are 
th e d e fe n d e rs o f th e sta tu s q u o ," d e cla re d the 
R ep u b lican p re sid e n tia l can d id ate. " W e are the

party of change."

President Clinton countered that D ole's proposal 
would "balloon the deficit, raise interest rates and 
weaken the econom y."

It will hurt the American people ... I am unalter­
ably opposed to going back to the mistake we made 
before and having big tax cuts that are not paid for," 
Clinton said, referring to the deficit deepening 1980s.
The Clinton cam paign im m ediately launched TV 
ads throughout much of the nation attacking Dole's 
plan: "A m erica's econom y is coming back. Now Bob 
Dole is endangering it all with a risky last-m inute 
schem e..."

The launching of the econom ic package came at a

critical time for Dole, who trails Clinton by as much 
as 20 percent in some national polls. He was close to 
naming a running mate and was preparing to be for­
m a lly n o m in a te d at n e x t w e e k 's R e p u b lic a n 
National Convention in San Diego.

For Dole, who has a history of preferring deficit 
reduction to huge tax cuts, proposing such a large 
tax cut was a difficult one.

D o le p ro v id ed o n ly v a g u e d e ta ils on how he 
would pay for the six-year plan — suggesting that 27 
percent of it or $147 billio n — w ould com e from 
"incom e growth effect."

Such supply-side econom ics — suggesting tax cuts 
can partly pay for th em selv es — have been d is-

Air travel

D e s p ite h e ig h te n e d s e c u r ity at a ir p o r ts 
n a tio n w id e , se v e ra l A u stin re s id e n ts said 
M onday these new guidelines have had little 
impact on their travel plans to and from Robert 
M ueller Municipal Airport.

P resid en t Bill C lin to n ord ered airlin e s to 
tighten security last w eek after a pipe bom b 
killed one person in C en ten n ial Park at the 
A tlanta O lym pics and all 230 p assen gers on 
TWA Flight 800 died when it crashed into the 
Atlantic Ocean.

F ed eral o fficia ls have not d eterm in ed the 
cau se of the plane crash, but have said new 
security measures are just a precaution.

T he p resid en t m an d ated that all a irp o rts 
have the following measures in place by Aug.

■ All passengers must show a form of photo 

ID. 

h

■ Passengers are no longer allowed to check 

ba8 8 a8 e a* curbside for international flights.

■ Airport officials take all com m ents about 

bom bs or terrorist attacks seriously.

" I tra v e le d last w eek so I k n ew w h a t to 
expect. I knew they would ask for an ID," said 
Ronnie Palmer, an Austin resident.

Palmer said although she did not encounter 
any delays, she did notice airport officials pay 
more attention to the X-ray machine.

"They seemed extra careful," Palmer said. 
Palmer said she noticed more airport security 
e m p lo y e e s at the X -ray m a c h in e s and she 
thought the machines were moving more slow ­
ly than usual.

Ken Cox, chief of airport police, said the air­
p o rt is not d o in g m any th in g s d iffe r e n tly 
because the new regulations do not affect the 
airport.

T h e federal regulations affect the airlines," 

Cox said.

Terrorism 
leads to new 
sanctions

Associated Press

W ASHINGTON — Aggravating tensions with allies, 
President Clinton ordered sanctions M onday against 
foreign companies that invest in Iran and Libya.

"Y o u sim ply can't do business with people by day 
who are killing your people by n ig h t," the president 
declared.

Germany and France denounced the move as a barri­
er to international trade. The 15-nation European Union 
also protested. And Iran predicted the new law was 
"doom ed to failure" because of the allies' objections 
^ T h e U n ite d S ta te s a lr e a d y w as u n d e r fire from 
Canada, M exico and other allies for a measure Clinton 
signed that penalizes foreign businesses that invest in 
property the Cuban government confiscated from cur­
rent American citizens.

Clinton said he expected the allies would eventually 
come around to his way of thinking. But he also said, 
W here we don't agree, the United States cannot and 

will not refuse to do what we believe is right."

With Americans still aw aiting answ ers to the TWA 
disaster and the Olympics bombing, Clinton spoke out 
against terrorism in an Oval Office bill-signing cerem o­
ny and in a speech at George Washington University.

Terrorism is the enem y of our generation and we 
must prevail," the president said. He singled out Iran 
and Libya as 
two of the most dangerous supporters of 
terrorism in the w orld."

Clinton was joined at the White House by relatives of 
victims of the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over 
L o ck erb ie, Sco tlan d . A lso p re sen t w ere tw o o f the 
Americans who had been held hostage at the American 
Embassy in Iran at the end of the Carter administration.
Clinton said the sanctions bill would heighten pres­
sure on Libya to extradite two suspects in the Pan Am 
explosion.

And V ictoria Cummock, president of Families o f Pan 
Am 103, responded, "Today marks an important day in 
Am erica's war against countries that use terrorism as an 
instrument of national policy against American citizens 
and the free w orld."

The new law, w hich cleared C ongress on Ju ly 23, 
requires the president to penalize foreign firm s that 
invest $40 million or more annually in the energy sec­
tors of Iran and Libya. "The act will help to deny them 
the money they need to finance international terrorism 
or to acquire w eapons of m ass d estru ctio n ," C linton 
said.

However, the law would not cover existing contracts;

Though federal research funding per A ID S death is seven 
tim es as high as funding per cancer death, advocates say there 
are good reasons to raise still more funds to help AIDS patients 
pay for new, effective and very expensive medication.

Accord hig to statistics from the National Institutes of Health 
and the Centers for Disease Control, federal funding per cancer 
death in 1996 will be at $4,100, while funding per AIDS death 
will be at $29,000.

You can argue that there should be more money going into 
a n y th in g ," said Tom R eynold s, spokesm an for the N ational 
Cancer Institute. "Som eone who is an advocate for a particular 
disease is going to make a case for more money. It's obviously a 
good cause; on the other hand there are limited research dollars."
Elizabeth Taylor, who founded The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS 
Foundation in 1991, has been an outspoken advocate for funding.
"W e live in a society that, above all, values each nd every 
human life,' Taylor said in a speech to the National Press Club in 
July. "To continue to withhold the means of self-protection from 
part of our population is not benign neglect. Is it not a deliberate 
act of premeditated and selective murder — an act clearly unac­
ceptable in any country that calls itself civilized?"

A passionate battle for research funding rages, but advocates 
searching for an AIDS cure argue strongly for the seemingly dis­
proportionate funding.

Money for fighting cancer and heart disease comes from many 
sources other than just the research funding funneled through

the N ational Institutes of H ealth, 
said Michael LaFlam, reference spe­
cia lis t a t 
the N a tio n a l AID S 
Inform ation C learinghouse of the 
Center for Disease Control.

"M edicare and M edicaid spend 
millions on people with heart dis­
e a s e ," he said . "N o m ore m oney 
was spent on AIDS patients than on 
heart patients."

" I f you take in to acco u n t oth er 
sources than federal funding then 
funding evens ou t," he said.

LaFlam said the urgency of AIDS
funding stems from the potential of 
HIV to reach far beyond the groups 
w ith which it is traditionally associ­
ated.

Though hom osexual m en, intra­
v en o u s d ru g u sers and th e ir sex 
partners expose them selves to the 
h ig h e s t ris k fo r c o n tr a c tin g th e 
H um an Im m u n o d eficien cy V irus, 
L a F la m s a id , th e r e h a s b e e n an 
increase in H IV's occurrence among 
o th e r g ro u p s , e s p e c ia lly w o m en 
and teenagers.

"W e're well into the second wave 
which has nothing to do with gay 
m en," said Sandy Bartlett, commu­
nity education coordinator for AIDS 
s e rv ice s of A u s tin . "T h e fastest 
growing groups in the second wave 
are IV users, heterosexual women, 
babies and teenagers. It's not limit­
ed to that initial population of gay 
men which was a m atter of histori­
cal accident. Look at the rest of the 
world — this is a straight person's 
disease."

Bartlett also said several factors 

m ake AIDS funding paramount.

"First of all," he said, "w hen you 
ta lk a b o u t c a n c e r , y o u h av e to 
rem em ber the battle against cancer 
has been a pretty fully funded pro­
gram for about three decades. We 
have only reasonably funded HIV 
research for about seven years."

Bartlett said AIDS research lays a 
foundation for the understanding of 
the human immune system that will 
benefit all diseases.

H e added that drugs developed

by A ID S research will have wide 
application among people at large.

He named as an example a newly 
d evelop ed fu n gicid e for treatin g 
candida aldicans, a fungus which 
causes serious problems for people 
with AIDS. Candida aldicans also 
causes yeast infections in women. 
A s a re su lt of A ID S o f research , 
there is a new treatm ent that also 
helps cure yeast infections, Bartlett 
said.

"W h e r e w e r e a lly n eed m o re 
m oney is in prevention education 
and in care," Bartlett said. " If you 
have no vaccine, how else are you 
going to stop the epidem ic?"

a 

"N o w th ere is a m ove afoo t to 
reorient the budgets of the National 
Institutes of H ealth," Bartlett said. 
"T h is is a political m atter as much 
as 
s c ie n t if ic m a tte r . T h e 
Republicans are now in control of 
C on g ress. R ep u blican s, co n serv a­
tives in general, do not like people 
w ho have HIV. W ho are the prima­
ry su fferers of HIV? G ay m en, IV

users "and their partners^ poor urban 
people of color and disenfranchised 
w om en. I have no doubt th at the 
actual agenda here is to w ithdraw 
fu n d in g from g ro u p s th ey d o n 't 
like."

LaFlam said that a powerful, new 
but prohibitively expensive treat­
m e n t fo r AIDS called p ro te a s e 
inhibitors had driven a state treat­
ment program in Washington to the 
verge of bankruptcy.

Barlett said the $15,000 price tag 
for the new treatm ent has forced 
major reassessments of priorities in 
K ansas, Illinois and W ash in gton , 
w h ere AIDS treatm en t p ro g ram s

costs.

w ould be a major step toward end­

Israel and the Arab w orld.

Talks betw een the two countries 

have been frozen since February.

N etanyahu told reporters he had

The talks are to in clu d e Israel's

Investigators find

ATLANTA — Fragments of the

The scraps were found by investi­

shortly before it exploded and scat­

concert audience early July 27. One 
woman w as killed and 111 people 
injured.

“ He had three pieces of m etal 
fragments and a piece of wood and 
they supposedly had something to 
do with the explosion," one of his 
lawyers, G. W atson Bryant, told The 
Associated Press. "I guess if your in 
law enforcement, maybe you would 
keep such things as souvenirs."

He said the item s were seized by

"M y client says h e's innocent. I

Security: Travelers not deterred by changes
Continued from page 1

A ustin airp ort officials 
continued hand searching 
items at screen points on a 
random basis and on occa­
sion if the X-ray m achine 
does not clearly show items 
so that they can be identi­
fied.

C ox said the airp o rt is 
also requiring travelers to 
demonstrate any electronic 
devices.

"If it is a pager, we have 
them punch a button and 
make it beep to make sure it 
is in fact a pager," Cox said.

But Palm er said despite 
the added security, she has

not noticed many long lines 
at terminals.

"A w eek ago Saturday 
Delta had a real long line, 
but I th o u gh t it w as ju st 
e v e ry o n e g oin g to the 
Olympics because it was an 
Atlanta flight," Palmer said.
Palmer said she does not 
think the extra precautions 
have done any good for the 
places she has traveled.

"I didn't feel scared at all 
to get on the plane," Palmer 
said.

According to a prepared 
sta tem e n t 
released by 
American Airlines, passen­

gers should arrive at the air­
port one to two hours early 
and be prepared for delays 
caused by increased securi­

airport o ffic ia ls held the

Julie Peskuric, an Austin 
resident, said though she is 
fly in g on 
in tern atio n al 
flights, she is not too wor­
ried.

"I fly quite a bit. I figure it 
is more dangerous on 1-35. 
There is more of a chance 
that I will be shot on 1-35 
than blown dp on a plane," 
Peskuric said.

She flew to Austin from 
Ireland last week and said

"I think abou t it, but I 
d o n 't w orry abou t 
it," 
Peskuric said, adding she 
was subject to one of the air­
ports random searches.

But D avid K ing, an 
Austin Community College 
student, said that while the 
recent news of terrorism at 
the O ly m p ics co n cern ed 
him, he was forced to fly

Anticipating such criticism, Dole

"D o le 's plan as it is w ritten is 
highly optim istic, but not silly ," 
said David Wyss, an economist at 
D R I-M cG raw 
Inc. 
"Econom ically, there is no reason 
you couldn't do it."

H ill 

M ajor elem ents of D ole's plan 

include:

— A 15 percent reduction in all 
p erson al incom e tax rates, to be 
phased in over three years in 5 per­
cent installments.

— Reducing the capital gains tax 

rate from 28 percent to 14 percent.

— A tax credit for families of up 
to $500 per child, which also could 
be invested in tax-free education 
accounts for college expenses.

— An exp an sion of In dividu al 
Retirement Accounts and repealing 
tax in c re a s e s of 199 3 on S ocial 
S e cu rity b en efits o f w e a lth ie r 
Americans.

— Simplification of the tax code 
so that up to 40 million Americans 
would not have to file returns and a 
one-year tax-amnesty program dur­
ing which individuals could pay 
back taxes without penalties.

"Families are being squeezed by 

rising taxes," he said.

in a b liste rin g a tta c k on the 
In tern al R ev en u e S e rv ic e , D ole 
called his economic plan "th e open­
ing salvo to repeal the current tax 
co d e and to end the IRS as w e 
know it."

"W e 're going to dow n size the 
IRS and u p size the a m o u n t of 
money Americans can keep in their 
pockets," Dole vowed. "... In short, 
my a d m in istratio n will free the 
Am erican people from tax tyran ­
n y."

Defeated GOP rival Steve Forbes, 
w ho has becom e a Dole ad viser, 
cautioned that Dole must stick to 
his plan. "H e has to keep hitting it 
each and every day. If he is seen as 
backing off of it, then his campaign 
is over. And he knows it."

Wall Street Joum al-N BC News poll 
last w eek found th at seven in 10 
Americans said they would regard 
a 15 percent tax cut as a campaign 
gimmick.

tax cuts would be paid for with by

But a large portion — roughly 2

come from the assumption that th 
tax cuts would stimulate econorm

of 3.5 percent a year, well above th

Dole closely stuck to his carefully 

worded text.

Fired

Aides say First 
Lady pressured 
them to get rid 
of travel staff

Associated Press

W ASH IN GTO N — Form er W hite House 
chief of staff M ack McLarty told Congress he 
"felt a pressure" from Hillary Rodham Clin­
ton in M ay 1993 to take action against the 
White House travel office. Three days later, 
the entire staff w as fired.

And Hollyw ood producer H a m Thom a­
son, who has emerged as a central figure in 
th e c o n tr o v e r s ia l firin g s , to ld th e sam e 
House investigators the first lady had said to 
him the workers "ought to be gotten out."

T h e tw o s ta te m e n ts , b o th fro m clo se 
friends of the first family, were contained in 
depositions and docum ents released M on­
day by a Republican-led House investigative 
committee. The m aterial portravs Clinton as 
a prime instigator in the episode.

The firings, which presidential aides later 
acknowledged w ere improper, have become 
a major political em barrassm ent for the Clin­
ton White House and the subject of a special 
prosecutor's investigation.

The possibility that the first lady played a 
role in the botched firings first em erged in 
January w hen a three-year-old draft memo 
by ex -W h ite H o u se a d m in istra tio n ch ief 
David Watkins was belatedlv discovered and 
turned over to investigators.

That memo said there w ould be "h ell to 
pay" if W atkins did not fire the travel office 
workers "in conformity with the first lady’s 
w ishes."

Clinton has said publicly — and has sworn 
in legal d o cu m en ts — that she expressed 
concerns about reports of financial m ism an­
agement in the travel office but never pres­
sured anyone to take action or suggested the 
workers be fired.

H ow ever, Thom ason and M cL arty both 
recounted in their depositions tw'o conversa­
tion each had with Clinton m the da vs before 
the firings. Both said their first conversations 
were brief, and the second more detailed.

" I think that when the first lady — the sec­
ond conversation where it was more detailed 
— she said they ought to be gotten out, but 
w hat would we do about trips?" Thomason 
was quoted as saying.

McLarty said he felt pressure to take action 
after Clinton spoke to him prior to a dinner 
in the W hite H ou se resid en ce on M ay 16, 
1993, just three days before the firings.

"I believe the first lady had a serious con­
cern about this matter, and I felt a pressure 
from her to take it seriously and to act upon it 
if necessary," McLarty was quoted as saying

M cLarty, a boyhood friend of the p resi­
d en t, said th re e d a y s b e fo re th e d in n e r 
encounter, Mrs. Clinton requested a meeting 
with him to discuss the travel office for the 
first time. "Sh e came to my office and raised 
this matter wath me. And that w'a^ — 1 heard 
about it at that point," he said.

Rep. W illiam Clinger, R-Pa., chairm an ot 
the House com m ittee investigating the fir­
ings, accused the White House on Monday of 
p ro tectin g C lin to n by w ith h o ld in g d o cu ­
ments, refusing to answer questions and pro­
viding witnesses with "hazy m em ories."

He called it a "m o s t strik in g p attern of 
obfuscation and obstruction. C linger also 
said he was giving the W hite H ouse until 
mid-August to turn over documents or face a 
contempt of Congress vote.

W hen asked w heth er M rs. C linton ever 
sp ecifically recom m ended the w orkers be 
fired, McLarty answered " I don't recall her 
saving anything o f that nature to me, and I 
just simply don't believe she did."

Dole’s new tax break is big 
step in defining comeback

J OHN KING_____________ __________
Associated Press

SAN D IEGO — With his dram atic new 
econom ic plan, Bob Dole staked his claim to 
the anxious middle class voters who helped 
President Clinton to his victory four years 
ago. M ore importantly, it was step one in a 
two-week Dole comej^ack formula.

D ole's selection of a running mate and his 
convention acceptance speech next Thurs­
day are big pieces of the puzzle, each offer­
ing an opportunity for the Republican nom ­
inee to convince voters to give his campaign 
a fresh look.

At the sam e tim e, the G O P 's fractio u s 
abortion debate, being played out this week 
in platform deliberations here, loom s as a 
threat to D ole's effort to rein vigorate his 
campaign and redefine his party.

"T h is is an extremely im portant period," 
said Republican pollster Ed Goeas. "V oters 
know Bill Clinton but say they don't really 
know a lot ab o u t B ob D ole. T h is is h is 
opportunity to redefine the race."

Ju st M o n d ay , for e x a m p le , D o le w as 
forced to retreat from his effort to add lan­
guage to the Republican platform specifical­
ly acknowledging those who disagree with 
the p latfo rm 's strict an ti-ab ortio n view s. 
D ole b ack ed dow n a fter b ein g told that 
abortion foes had the votes to force a con­
vention floor fight over abortion, a divisive 
spectacle Dole advisers are eager to avoid.

" T h e rich are g ettin g rich er w h ile the 
m iddle class gets left b eh in d ," Dole said, 
su gg estin g that higher taxes and re g u la ­
tions im posed by the D em ocratic incu m ­
bent were causing an econom ic squeeze on 
the very middle class that Clinton promised 
a tax cut four years ago.

D o le a lso re a ch e d fo r th e le g a c y of 
Ronald Reagan — substantively by pushing 
bold tax cuts and stylistically by adopting 
an o p tim istic sp irit that is o ften m issing 
from Dole speeches.

ANALYSIS

"G row th will put those women and men 
back on the job, paychecks in their pockets 
and hope in their hearts once again," Dole 
sa id , s u g g e s tin g h is tax c u ts w o u ld 
unshackle a sluggish economy and cause "a 
new birth of freedom ."

The reaction on Wall Street underscored 
Dole's dilem m a heading into his nom inat­
ing convention: D ole's promise of deep tax 
cu ts cau sed b are ly a rip p le, su g g e stin g 
investors do not give Dole very good odds 
of erasing C linton's healthv lead and get­
ting the chance to implement his program.

Beyond tax cuts, the Dole plan includes 
proposals to help parents pay for education 
and a consolidation of federal job training 
p rog ram s, again ch allen g in g C lin to n on 
issu es central to the p re sid e n t's pitch to 
middle class voters.

In d oing so, D ole so u g h t to recast the 
p r e s id e n tia l race in te rm s fa v o ra b le to 
Republicans, calling C linton a traditional 
tax-and-spend liberal hiding behind Repub­
lican rhetoric. "T h e campaign begins anew 
today," Dole campaign manager Scott Reed 
said . He said D o le w o u ld re p e a t th e se 
themes in his acceptance speech.

" I f he runs this cam paign on the central 
m essage of Bob D ole is going to deliver a 
tax cut and Bill Clinton raised taxes, he will 
have a m essage he can carry all the way 
through the election," said Goeas.

Better taxes than abortion. The next ques­
tio n is w h eth er s u p p o rte rs o f a b o rtio n 
rights can m uster enou gh votes to press 
their case on the convention floor. Regard­
less, many predicted Dole would suffer at 
the polls for failing to make an significant 
overture to supporters of abortion rights.

"T h e y will find out in N ovem ber that 
w a sn 't a good id e a ," said A nn Ston e of 
Republicans for Choice.

Dole ends push 
fo r abortion 
rights tolerance 
on GOP platform

Associated Press

SAN DIEGO — In a major victory 
for social conservatives, Bob Dole's 
campaign on Monday abandoned an 
effort to add language to the Republi­
can Party platform that sought "toler­
an ce " of diverse opinions on ab or­
tion.

The move elated staunch abortion 
foes, who had argued hard to keep 
pure the p latfo rm 's h ard -lin e lan­
guage, including a call for a constitu­
tional amendment banning abortion. 
Moderate Republicans who support 
abortion rights predicted Dole would 
suffer at the polls for backing down.

Dole had wanted a new "tolerance 
p lan k " in the platform that reco g ­
nized "m em b ers of our party have 
deeply held and sometimes differing 
v iew s on issu es of p erso n al c o n ­
science like abortion and capital pun­
ishment."

But, faced with vehem ent objec­
tions from abortion foes, including 
primary rival Pat Buchanan and the 
Christian Coalition, Dole lieutenants 
relen ted M onday and agreed to a 
generic statement of recognition for 
diversity of view points. It does not 
specifically mention abortion or any 
other issue.

Citizens execute S. African drug kingpin

Associated Press

C A PE T O W N , So u th A frica — It w ould 
have been no surprise had Rashaad Staggie 
d ied his fiery d eath at the h an d s of riv als 
eager to snatch control of the drug empire he 
built with a mixture of cunning and brutality.

Instead, he was executed by the men of a 
w orking-class neighborhood d riven to v igi­
lante violence by frustration and fear.

Rashaad was buried Monday, a day after he 
was shot repeatedly and set on fire by a Molo­
tov cocktail. P oliticians, youth w orkers and 
even civil rights lawyers expressed sympathy 
for his killers.

that ord in ary citizen s w ould not feel co m ­

U n d er a p a rth e id , w h en b la ck S o u th 
Africans had no reason to believe the white- 
led p o lice force and ju d icia l system w'ould 
protect their communities, it was not uncom­
mon for "people's courts" to sentence alleged 
rapists, robbers or political traitors to beatings 
or death.

Since w hite m inority rule ended in 1994, 
new black leaders have faced spiraling crime. 
Police are understaffed, underequipped and 
after y ears o f op erating as en forcers rather 
than investigators, seemingly no match for the 
robbers and murderers.

"They see how our youth is undermined by 
drugs and they experience the totally unac­
cep tab le actio n s o f the ... gangs on a d aily 
basis," said W estern Cape provincial premier 
Hem us Kriel.

California drug agents shut down cannabis club

Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — A club that openly 
sold marijuana to people with AIDS, cancer 
and other diseases reopened Monday, a day 
after state drug agents cleaned out its cup­
boards.

"W e don't have any marijuana, but we 
have each o th e r," said volunteer Gilbert 
Baker as a dozen people lined up outside. 
" W e have love and co m p assion . T h at's 
what the club's been about from the start."

The Cannabis Buyers' Club has sold mari­
juana to the seriously ill since it was found­
ed in 1991 Boasting 11,000 members, the

club operated from a storefron t on busy 
Market Street.

Club leaders made no secret o f the fact 
they sold the illegal drug and city police, 
under orders from elected officials, didn't 
disturb the operation.

But on Sunday, state agents burst into the 
club, seizing more than 100 pounds of pot, 
documents and more than $60,000 in cash 
In raids on five hom es in San Francisco, 
Oakland and Mi librae, they also sei/ed 400 
marijuana plants, along with more than 50 
pounds of cookies, brownies, and muffins 
that may have been laced with the drug.

The raid came after a two-vear investiga­
tio n d u rin g w h ich u n d e rc o v e r a g e n ts 
allegedly saw minors buying pot and peo­
ple selling the drug to "patients" with doc­
tor's no tes" scribbled on napkins or scrap 
paper.

tre a so n 
charges in connection with a military 
crackdown on a pro-dem ocracy upris­

1980, six months after the coup. Hun­
dreds of people were killed or injured 
in the unrest.

The two leaders also are accused of

demanded that Chun be fined $270 mil­

The charges of m utiny and treason 
against Chun carry a mandatory death 
penalty. But w hile a guilty v erd ict is

Hector Garcia died last week in 

Corpus Christi, Texas. He was 82.

For the last 50 years, Garcia was a 
cultural beacon not only for Mexi- 
can-Americans seeking to improve 
their lives, but for all H ispanics 
struggling with poverty and racism. 
With firm determination, an im pres­

leader in contemporary American 
history.

Know n affectionately as "D r. 
H ector," Garcia graduated from the 
University with a medical degree in 
1940. After distinguished service in 
World W ar II, Garcia opened a med­
ical practice in Corpus Christi in 
1946, coincidentally next door to the 
local V eterans A dm inistration 
office.

VIEWPOINTi „
Accouiatability

1

Three weeks ago, UT adm inistration decided to charge all auxil­
iary enterprises a 2 percent fee. The decision was made with minimal 
consulting to the affected enterprises, including the UT Health Cen­
ter and the University Student Childcare Association, and will result 
in increased costs to students for needed services like cold medicine 
and married student housing.

In a memo explaining the fee, Vice President for Business Affairs 
Charles Franklin said, The auxiliary enterprises ... will begin assum ­
ing a share of the financial responsibility for such services such as 
budgeting, general accounting, payrolls, voucher processing and 
payments, banking, data processing, central purchasing, central 
receiving and delivery, cam pus mail, executive support and other 
services."

It is the opinion of The Daily Texan that no enterprise should pay 

this fee until the UT Office of Accounting improves these services.

The University lost baseball coach Cliff Gustafson because of 
financial discrepancies from an outside account. The Office of Inter­
nal Audits concluded that "the problems created by use of this out­
side account offer strong evidence of the need for University over­
sight of such financial activities and the reason behind long-standing 
and detailed policies regarding the receipt and disbursement of 
monies from University activities."

Gustafson s outside account, like other current departmental out­
side accounts, was created to process transactions quickly — some­
thing the departments cannot currently do under the Office of 
Accounting. Departments face daily delays with the very services 
mentioned in Franklin's memo: accounting, payrolls, voucher pro­
cessing and payments, banking and data processing.

Regardless, the outside accounts are against UT policy, and clean­
ing them up wiii creaie a huge delay in payroll benefits corrections 
and sales tax corrections.

W hy? Because the UT Office of Accounting does not examine the 
details of UT departmental accounts such as which goods were sold, 
and what sales tax rate was applied.

Applied Research Laboratories, a UT department which research­
es for private companies and the U.S. Department of Defense, recent­
ly closed an outside account it held since 1967. The department had 
been sending receipts with the wrong sales tax to the accounting 
office, but it took ARL officials bringing the account to the attention 
of UT officials to clean it up.

"I don't think anybody was checking," said ARL director Mike 

Pestorius.

Both Kathy Miller, director of the Office of Accounting, and Danny 
Fletcher, controller for the Office of Accounting, said the office has 
intended for years to restructure the way it handles departments. 
Auxiliary enterprises have only one year to prepare for the new fee; 
it is only fair to give the UT Office of Accounting a sfmilar time frame 
to rework its system.

One way to do this is by surrendering current sales tax records to 
state Com ptroller John Sharp. With the assistance of his office, UT 
could face next year's auxiliary fee with a more efficient system and 
a clean conscience that all previous tax obligations are met. Perhaps 
if the Accounting Office had reworked its system earlier, we would 
still have Gustafson.

Either way, change is needed, and soon. As of fall 1997, one of the 
biggest departmental contributors to the new auxiliary fee will be the 
one that just lost its beloved baseball coach.

University should continue to fund colloquium scholarships

W hile students continue to com ­
plain that the U niveristy w astes 
funds on unnecessary scholarships 
and overpaid professors, there are, 
believe it or not, some worthwhile 
University expenditures 

The Honors Colloquium is one 
such great investment. Unfortunate­
ly, due to budget cutbacks, we no 
longer offer the $1,000 scholarship 
previously guaranteed to colloquists 
who chose the University.

The colloquium is a three-day 
conference focused on the Universi­

Vice President of Student Affairs

is 

The colloquium not only benefits 

the University, it is also a necessity.

Many types of students consider 
the University, including those who 
know they are coming here but are 
looking for a focus, and those who 
would give anything to go to Har­
vard. For the former, the colloquium 
is a good way to present the options 
the University has to offer, with 
honors programs in a wide range of 
fields. For the latter, the colloquium 
helps prove there are good alterna­

tives to an ivy-league education

The colloquium also serves to dis­
m antle the college stereotype of 
"you pay more, you get m ore." 
Once a student arrives it becomes 
clear he will get out as much as he 
puts in, but in high school, pricier 
often mistranslates into better pre­
paredness for the real world. H on­
ors students in particular get bom ­
barded with pressure to attend "top- 
notch" schools. While the University 
is not the best choice for everyone, it 
is a great option for many.

In addition, several other schools 
competing with the University for

high caliber students hold honors 
programs.

to 

Good students are a valuable 
asset 
the U niversity. They 
improve the learning environment 
and increase national prestige. The 
University frequently isn't ranked as 
high as we'd like in national reports 
and we complain bitterly about it. 
This is our chance to do something 
about that. Considering how aggres­
sively the University recruits ath­
letes, a good academ ic effort is cer­
tainly justified.

W hile the scholarships are not 
absolutely critical to the colloquium,

other funding to run the program is.
The colloquium offers free food 
and lodging, an influential draw. 
Fortunately, generous faculty volun­
teer time to help mentor the pro­
gram and teach classes.

In many ways, the colloquium 

brings out the best on campus.

With about a 40 percent successful 
recruitment rate, it is a sound invest­
m ent for the University, and should 
continue to receive maximum finan­
cial support.

FIRING LINE

Dead on

Dennis G. M edina's recent Firing 
Line letter was as erroneous as it 
was naive. In his vitriolic attack on 
Jim Dedm an's fine Aug. 2 editorial, 
M edina illustrates his self-right­
eous opinions are governed by 
anger, not intellectual honesty.

Medina accuses Dedman of "ad 
hominem reasoning," when in fact 
it is Medina him self who engages 
D edm an 
in personal attacks. 
offered a reasonable and fair cri­
tique of the diversity training UTA 
President Robert W itt mandated 
two weeks ago. M edina, on the 
other hand, barrages Dedman with 
juvenile insults which do nothing 
to further debate.

Diversity training is an exercise 
in groupthink. Medina and his ilk 
believe we should judge people by 
which racial group they belong to. 
In their eyes, diversity is about skin 
color, not intellectual achievement. 
When will Medina and his out-of­
touch pals realize true diversity 
concerns not physical characteris­
tics but academ ic merit?

Medina is also guilty of com ­
pletely m isrepresenting Dedm an's 
arguments. Diversity is not confor­
mity, as M edina's version goes. 
Liberal college administrators seek 
to impose conformity upon their

campuses under the guise of diver­
sity. Did Medina actually read the 
article Dedman wrote, or did he 
just get angry at the title?

"Diversity is not mandated by 
the governm ent or educational 
institutions," claim s M edina. O f 
course it is. Campuses across the 
nation have speech codes and 
mandatory diversity training. It's a 
good thing The Texan is profiling 
events that could lead to similar 
practices at the University.

We must scrutinize the reasoning 
behind sensitivity 
training and 
diversity coordinators before we 
mindlessly reach for M edina's feel 
good rubber stamp of multi-every- 
thingism.

When it comes to this issue, Med­
ina is wrong. Dedman was dead 
right.

Olympic closure

After watching the closing cere­
mony of the 1996 Olympics, I could 
not help feeling sad and dejected. 
Very much like the Opening Cere­
mony, it was mostly bland and 
good 
The 
u ninspiring. 
m om ents w ere those w hen the 
organizers had stopped trying to be 
"artistic" and had just tried to por­
tray Am erican life and culture. 
Rather than feeding the world a 
dose of ill-thought out art and 
form, the organizers should have 
tried to focus on what America is: 
the most advanced country in the 
world technologically. I remember 
watching the Opening Ceremony 
(or was it the Closing Cerem ony?) 
of the 1984 Olympics as a 12-year- 
old. I was completely overpowered 
by the sight of a man flying with 
the help of a jet engine that was car­
ried like a backpack by him. Who 
cares for the pretentious dances 
and forced symmetries? When I 
think of the USA, I do not think of 
it as a haven of culture and art (I, a 
lowly Pakistani, have more "cu l­
ture" in my blood than most Am er­

icans); what I think of is its military 
and technological prowess. So why 
this feigned attitude that tries to 
portray the United States as what it 
is not, and probably never was?

On another note, during the 
Opening and Closing Ceremonies, 
unity of all the races and nations 
stood out as a dominant theme. Yet, 
it is no secret that the games had 
become an open invitation to defect 
for athletes from countries like 
Cuba, Iraq and Afghanistan. Wow! 
Providing opportunities for defec­
tion to athletes from unfriendly 
countries must be a proven recipe 
to bringing world unity and peace.
And finally, one can not but feel 
relieved that the games being over, 
NBC's coverage of the games will 
be over too.

Foreign coverage

In her editorial "N BC Olympic

ris mentions several ways in which 
NBC could have 
its 
Olympic coverage. I agree with her 
on most of these points, but one 
seems conspicuously absent: NBC 
included next to no mention of for­
eign athletes. I understand that the 
Am erican public expects to see 
how its own athletes perform, but 
one cannot forget that they are but 
600 of the 11,000 hosted at the 
Atlanta games. I found it hard to 
accept that NBC would relate near­
ly all the swimming events, a gold 
medal gold-mine for the United 
States, but forw ent coverage of 
every G reco-Rom an w restling 
match (a boon for Polish athletes), 
all fencing events (a Russian victo­

A recom m endation to consider providing m a n ­
aged care at the UT Student Health Center will be 
at the forefront of a com m ittee's report evaluating 
quality of care at the center, Student G overnm ent 
President Jeff Tsai said M onday.

The stu d en t-le d com m ittee stu d y in g UT s tu ­
den t health services will release a 19-page report 
Tuesday calling for m ore stu d en t input and better 
public relations in o rd er to bolster student confi­
dence in the center.

The com m ittee, chaired by Tsai, surveyed 269 
UT stu d en ts concerning th eir perception of care 
at the center.

W hile Tsai adm itted the survey is not scientific, 
he said it served as a start for m ore m eaningful 
stu d e n t interaction w ith the health center.

The results indicate that there are m ore people 
than n o t w ho think the h e a lth center p ro v id e s 
q u a lity care, Tsai sa id . "W e w ere s u rp ris e d , 
quite honestly."

Q uality of care at the center becam e an issue in 
M ay after the death of Jennifer Sparrgove, a g ra d ­
uate student w ho developed blood clots associat­
ed w ith birth control pills.

The Student Health C enter failed to diagnose a 
p u lm o n a r y e m b o lism on th e th re e o c c a sio n s 
Sparrgrove visited the center com plaining of dif­
ficulty breathing.

The health center should get a com m ittee to 
exam ine m anaged care," Tsai added . "Lots of stu 
dents covered by HM Os w on't use the health cen­
te r as a p rim a r y care p ro v id e r" in th e fu tu re 
un d er the cu rren t system, he said.

- 

From the com m ittee's study of o ther U niversity 
health care facilities, Tsai said he will suggest that 
the UT h ealth center exam ine the U niversity of 
A rizona's stu d e n t health care.

"A rizona w o rk ed out a netw ork w ith HM Os" 
to allow m ore stud en ts covered u n d er HM Os to 
use the university health < enter as their prim ary 
care provider, Tsai said.

Tsai stre sse d th e com m ittee d o es n o t recom ­
mend that the Student H ealth C enter require stu ­
dents to have insurance.

In addition, the com m ittee calls for the estab ­
lishm ent of a Student Health A dvisory C om m it­
tee to provide in p u t regarding the center's poli­
cies and suggests changing the nam e of the center 
to U niversity H ealth Services.

But Tsai said the com m ittee's rep o rt does not 
specifically a d d ress how the needs of patients at 
the UT health center are determ ined w hen a stu ­
dent makes an appointm ent.

U n d er th e c u r re n t p ro c e d u re , h e a lth c en te r 
ap p o in tm en t staff d eterm ine w h en a stu d e n t is 
seen and if they should be exam ined by a physi­
cian or a nurse, said Jeanne C arpenter, associate 
director of the UT Student H ealth Center.

Health center staff w ho answ er stu d en ts' calls 
m ake their reco m m en d atio n s based on a list of 
sym p to m s p ro v id e d by h ealth p ro fe ssio n a ls at

Tsai said the com m ittee will encourage the cen­

terserro rtst

CASA protects abused and neglected children

MIKE CARR
Daily Texan Staff

Karen remembers the time she secretly 
arranged for her grandfather to pick her 
up from school and hide her from her 
mentally ill father.

The plan fell through when her father 
found out and had Karen's grandfather 
arrested for kidnapping.

In court, Karen, who was 12 at the time, 
pleaded with the judge not to send her 
back to her mentally ill father.

"I w ou ld ra th e r go to ja il th an go 
home, she said she told the judge, who 
denied her plea and sent her back to her 
father.

Despite the outcome, Karen Cox, now 
the acting executive director of CASA, a 
T ravis C ou n ty ad vo cate p rogram for 
neglected and abused children, never for­
got how her grandfather put himself on 
the line for her by acting as her advocate.

Karen said to pay back her grandfa­
th er s g o o d w ill, sh e v o lu n te ere d to 
become a similar type of child advocate 
for Court Appointed Special Advocates.

Through Aug. 17, CASA is holding its 
fifth annual playhouse raffle at Highland 
Mall to raise money to increase the size of 
its advocacy program for abused and 
n eg lected ch ild ren who have beco m e 
wards of the state.

CASA of Travis County is one of more 
than 40 CASA programs in Texas and one 
of nearly 600 organizations nationwide.

D u rin g 10 y ea rs of se rv ic e in T rav is 
County, CASA has helped nearly 1,000 
children find a home free from abuse.

Dawn Kloster, vice president of CASA's 
board of directors and co-chairwoman of 
the playhouse fund-raiser, said CASA is 
striving to find stable, happy homes for 
the approxim ately 800 abused children 
who remain in the state's custody.

"O ur w hole goal in life is to get the 

child a safe permanent home," she said.

C ox said C A SA n eed s to exp an d 
because its program covers only one-third 
of the children who need an advocate.

We can only deal with the very worst 

cases. That's not good enough," she said.

She said CASA volunteers are essential 
in helping children survive neglect and 
abuse.

"W e will be the only constant in the 

child's life," she said.

The $30,000 in proceeds that are expect­
ed to be raised from the raffle will help 
pay the salaries of more full-time CASA 
employees. Each new employee, in turn, 
will direct the efforts of 35 new volun­
teers.

Winners of the raffle take home eight- 
foot-tall playhouses that are designed and 
constructed by area architects. The play­
houses, with themes to renowned movies 
such as Gone With the Wind and Star Wars, 
are worth $5,000 to $10,000.

Bill Pitts, 9, was scrambling around in 
the Captain Hook playhouse on Monday 
afternoon at H ighland M all w hile his

mother bought $25 worth of raffle tickets.

Outside the house a treasure chest lay 
open, d isp laying a load of sh in y gold 
coins, sparkling pearls and a gli stening 
sword among other pirate booty.

Black cannon barrels poked oi it from 
the brown playhouse's windows, under­
neath one of which rested a gunjoowder 
barrel. An inside stairway led to th e deck 
of the boathouse, which had a s teering 
wheel at the bow and a skull anc 1 cross- 
bones black flag at the stem.

Pitts, a fourth-grader, said he li ked the 
stairway but was not too thrilled v vith the 
cannons.

"They slip out easy and the w indows 
don't have screeas on them," he said. In 
fact, one of the cannons did fall when a 
passer-by brushed past a window.

Pitt said the Star Wars fighter playhouse 
was too small for him because it did not 
have two stories and added he "v/ouldn't 
be ca u g h t d ead " in the H eid i h ou se 
"because it's for girls."

But middle school students Jan a Davis 
and Katie Stew art said they lo v e d the 
Heidi house.

It's neat. It looks like a real hoi ase. The 
only thing I'd do is paint it a dAfferent
color," Davis said.

Karen Stew art, a resident of G eorge­
tow n and K atie's m other, saicl all the 
houses were wonderful.

"They sort of inspire magic, just like 

CASA does," she said.

Hutchison, Gramm praise welfare bill

.Kutac’ a CASA volunteer, hands out balloons as part of the organization’s fund-raiser. A 

raffle to win one of the six movie-themed playhouses will be held Aug. 17.

Teen indicted in 
church burnings

Associated Press

DALLAS — A black teen who 
adm itted he set fires ai iwo pre­
d o m in a n tly b la ck ch u rch e s in 
Greenville has been charged with 
two counts of arson, according to 
federal indictments unsealed Mon­
day.

In confessions to police, Mark 
Anthony Young, 18, said he set a 
total of four fires, including the 
two church blazes that inflamed 
racial tensions. He has been in cus­
tody since his July 17 arrest.

The New Light House of Prayer 
sustained $60,000 in damage in an 
a rso n fire Ju n e 9. A few h o u rs 
later, the C h u rch of the L iving 
God suffered an estimated $2,000 
in damage during a predawn fire.

Dozens of fires, mostly at vacant 
buildings, follow ed. Young con­
fessed to the church fires in the 
town about 50 miles northeast of

Dallas after being taken into cus­
tody in connection with a fire at a 
vacant house.

A federal grand jury on Friday 
returned the indictments charging 
Young with arson stemming from 
the tw o ch u rch fire s, said U.S. 
Attorney Paul Coggins said.

"W e're trying to convince arson­
ists don't do it and for God's sake, 
d o n 't target a c h u rc h ," he said. 
"W hen you bum a church it's not 
like just burning another bu ild ­
ing."

Y o u n g 

is sc h e d u le d 

to be 
arraigned Friday before U.S. Dis­
trict Jud ge Sid n ey F itzw ater. If 
convicted, he faces a m axim um 
punishment of 40 years in prison 
and a fine of $500,000.

He is not a suspect in the other 
fires that have plagued the com ­
munity and federal agents are con­
tin u in g th eir in v estig atio n into 
those incidents, Coggins said.

D A L L A S — A w eek b e fo re 
R epublicans step into the national 
spotlight at the party's convention 
in San D iego, the G O P 's tw o U.S. 
senators from Texas barnstorm ed 
Texas touting the landmark welfare 
reform legislation passed last week.

K ay B ailey H u tch iso n and Phil 
Gramm started the day with a swel­
tering stop at an industrial laundry 
in Dallas. Sweat trickled from their 
foreheads as they took turns prais­
in g th e b ill to w o rk e rs m a k in g 
around $7 an hour to wash and iron 
sheets and towels.

" I t is fair for ev ery o n e to help 
pull in some w ay," Hutchison said 
o v e r th e h is s e s and c la n g s o f 
m a c h in e ry at 
th e 3 4 -y e a r-o ld 
National Linen Service plant. "T his 
is a bill that will work because it is 
fair and becau se every A m erican 
will see that it is fair."

A bill p assed by C o n g ress last 
w eek sets a life tim e lim it of five 
years of w elfare per family. It also 
requires able-bodied adults to work 
after two years with certain exemp­

States can set many of the rules, 
such as terminating benefits sooner 
than five years. P resid ent C linton 
has said he will sign the bill.

Hutchison and other Sunbelt sen­
ators successfully waged the fight to 
gain ad ditional d ollars pegged to 
population growth.

Gramm said the bill would help
people to get their foot on the bot­
tom rung of the eco n o m ic lad d er 
and start clim bing."

T h e le g isla to rs' co m m e n ts fo l­
lowed those by G regory W oodard 
and Douglas Brown, new em ploy­
ees described by plant o fficials as 
successful examples of the welfare- 
to-work transition.

B ro w n , 40, w ho m a k e s a b o u t 
$1600 per month as a tumbler oper­
ator, said he believes almost anyone 
can find a job.

" I f people really w ant to w ork, 

there are jobs out there," he said.

A n o th e r w o rk e r, 4 9 -y e a r -o ld 
Beatrice Mackey of Dallas, said that 
the welfare bill "w ill help some and 
hurt som e."

H e w as having one of those dream s th at seem ed 
very real in his m ind, b u t w as rath er comical for

because he w as dream ing about the craziest of 
things — a football gam e.

N ot just any old gam e m ind you. A g am e th at p it­

riches and a chance to play for the Sears tro p hy on 
the second day of January.

So, in H atchell's m ind, it was settled rig h t then, 
right there. After 12 team s fight it o u t o ver 3 1 /2 
m onths, the top tw o w ould m eet at a n eutral site to 
determ ine w ho is the best from a seven-state span 

W ith that, the Big 12

C h a m p io n sh ip

betw een the w in ner of 
the Big 12's N orth Divi­

To w in in either division, each team will have to 
com e prepared to w ork every Saturday ... or T hurs­
... or practice on M onday, T u esday, and 
d ay 
W ednesday 
... o r film sessions th ro u g h o u t the

into m aking a cham pion.

In a conference that boasts 15 national cham pi­
onships, nine H eism an Trophy w inners, and a 49- 
10-0 record versus non-conference o pp o n en ts in 
1995, there is no room for slackers.

In the N orth Division, the Big 12 w elcom es two-

souri. M aking u p the South are O klahom a, O kla­
hom a State, Texas Tech, Baylor, Texas A&M, and 
1995's Southw est C onference cham pion, Texas.

The conference gained im m ediate respect am ong 
the college football w orld upon its conception and 
am ong the college athletic world nationw ide for the

of the b order for an exhibition of "fútbol 
am ericano."

The Chiefs got a kick o u t of their first p re ­
season gam e, being successful on four field 
goals, including tw o long ones.

Dallas d ropped to 1-1, but the Cow boys 
learned for the first tim e that quarterback 
Troy A ikm an can go deep to d efen der-tu rned- 
receiver Deion Sanders.

Played in a city ringed by the majestic east­
ern Sierra M adre, the gam e w as the 27th in an 
international exhibition series that began in 
London in 1986. The N FL's Am erican Bowl 
also has been played in Asia, Europe and 
Canada.

M exico's first A m erican Bowl, in 1994 irf 
Mexico City, drew a league-record 112,376 in 
Aztec Stadium . O n M onday night, M onter­

The Chiefs w ere auditioning tw o kickers: 
Roman A nderson and Bjom N ittm o, both for­
merly of the C anadian Football League. The 
Chiefs released last y ear's kicker, Lin Elliott, 
after he m issed three field goals in a 10-7 play­

In the first half, A nderson m ade both field

Sox thrash Rangers, 15-5

Associated Press

ARLINGTON — Som etim es a big, early lead 

is not w hat W ilson A lvarez w ants.

Alvarez, staked to an 8-0 lead after three 
innings, w on for the 12th tim e in his last 17 
starts M onday night despite allow ing a fourth- 
m ning grand slam to Kevin Elster as the W hite 
Sox cruised to a 15-5 w in over the Texas 
Rangers.

"I really d o n 't like having a lead that early in 
the gam e because you lose concentration," 
A lvarez said. "I m ade a m istake d o w n the 
m iddle to Elster and he m ade me pay. I'm 
h ap p y we w o n 't see those guys anym ore."

A lvarez (14-5) w on his fourth straight deci­
sion as the W hite Sox took three gam es of the 
four-gam e series.

The left-hander gave u p five runs and eight 
hits in 6 2-3 innings, striking out four and 
w alking four.

W ilson had one bad m ning there," W hite 
Sox m anager Terry Bevington said. "H e threw 
a couple of bad pitches and got a little tired. 
Those th in g s hap en , b u t he pitched w ell 
enough to w in."

The W hite Sox fin ish ed 

the season 8-4 
against the Rangers. The team s could meet 
again since both are in contention for post-sea­
son berths.

"It seem s like we alw ays play well against 
those guys," said W hite Sox shortstop C h n s 
Snopek, w ho went 2-for-3 and scored tw o 
runs. "W e m ight m eet them again dow n the 
line in the playoffs so this w as a good sign."

Texas, which has lost five of its last eight, 
now leads the AL W est by just one gam e over

Seattle. The Rangers' pitching staff w as bat­
tered for 40 runs in the four-gam e set.

Rangers starter D arren Oliver (9-5) allow ed 
a career-high eight runs and seven hits over 2 
1-3 innings, the second-shortest outing of his 
career.

It's got to get better and it will get better," 
Rangers m anager Johnny O ates said of his 
team 's pitching. "You just can't keep spotting 
people runs and playing catch-up. Y ou've got 
to have a 1-2-3 inning once in a while. It's no 
fun to play that w ay You've got to have better 
pitching. T hat's the bottom line."

N orberto M artin w ent 3-for-4, scoring three 
runs and hit his first hom er of the season for 
Chicago. Ray D urham also w as 3-for-4 with 
three runs scored.

We had a real good offensive series," Bev­
ington said. "B ut I d o n 't think w e can keep it

"Jack is a true professional.

BALTIMORE — Five days after the NBA

H ow ard has returned to the W ashington

Herñandez savors last hours before jail time

Associated Press 

~ 

— 

DALLAS — A former Dallas policeman who put out a 
contract on Cowboys star Michael Irvin savored his 
fleeting independence M onday by waiting until 22 
hours of the day had passed before reporting to jail.

Johnnie Hernandez, accompanied by his attorney, 
Frank Perez, arrived at the Lew Sterrett Justice Center at 
10 p.m. Monday. He was wearing plain clothes and car­
rying a notebook and a Bible.

On Sunday, almost two dozen people descended on 
Johnnie H ernandez's home in the Dallas suburb of 
Cedar Hill on his last free night.

We had dinner and discussions about old times, kind 

of like a Last Supper," Hernandez said.

After pleading guilty last week to solicitation of capi­
tal m urder and an u n d a te d bribery charge, Hernandez 
said he's ready to go to prison and accept responsibility 
for his actions.

"I'm mentally prepared to do it," he said. "I'm the one 

who did it. I take full responsibility for what I did."

Hernandez, 28, was sentenced to two six-year prison 
terms that he will serve simultaneously. With good 
behavior, the time could be shortened to about two 
years.

I Ti rnandez claimed he was upset w ith Irvin because

of anegeci threats the Dallas 
of alleged threats the Dallas receiver made against his 
girlfriend, Rachelle Smith, who testified against Irvin at 
his trial. She told the judge that Irvin provided drugs for 
several sex parties with topless dancers and that he 
threatened to harm her and H ernandez if she cooperat­
ed with prosecutors:

"I look back and I think, and people don't realize, I 
was a Dallas police officer and he still did what he did to 
Rachelle right after she testified at the grand jury, you 
know, strip-searched her, had a wand checking for wire 
taps," he said.

Irvin's attorney has denied his client m ade any
7

threats. 

In an interview aired M onday by Fort W orth televi­
sion station KXAS, Hernandez said the death plot was 
conceived when two police officers introduced him to a 
m an who turned out to be a drug informant.

I told him that Michael Irvin wanted Rachelle 
killed," he said in an interview taped Saturday. " ... The 
informant said to me, 'Well, are you going to marry 
Rachelle? I said, Yeah, I'm going to marry Rachelle.' 
And he said, Well, you need to kill Michael Irvin.'"

The informant introduced him to a man who turned 
out to be a Drug Enforcement Administration agent 
m asquerading as a major drug dealer. In later meetings

a 

.

with the undercover agent, Hernandez agreed to protect 
him on multimillion-dollar drug transactions. H ernan­
dez even said he served as a lookout on a transaction.

"I made some bad decisions and made some bad 
choices," he said. "... I d id n 't really care because of the 
state of m ind I was in."

Su d 

In his interview with The Associated Press, Hernan- 
holds no grudges against Irvin, who cut 
short his trial by pleading no contest to felony cocaine 
possession. Irvin was sentenced to four years' probation 
and also received a five-game suspension from the 
National Football League.

I think he had a lot of problems, and I'm sure that 
he s going to do the right thing," Hernandez said. "I 
don't have anything against him. I'm not going to judge 
him, because I'm sure he was in a pretty stressful situa­
tion also."

But Hernandez said believe me, yes" it seems ironic 

that he is the one going to prison, not Irvin.

H ernandez was arrested June 27 after giving an 
undercover drug agent posing as a hitman a $2,960 
down paym ent on Irvin's m urder. He resigned his police 
commission the same day.

He rnandez said he decided to plead guilty because he 
didn't want to put his family and friends through a

lengthy, high-profffe trial, even though he said many 
would have supported him.

"Everybody I talked to thought I could win the case," 
he said. "But the (district attorney) was fair with me. 
They gave me a deal I accepted. It was w hat I wanted to
do."

Prosecutors have called Hernandez a corrupt cop who 
was paid to protect people he believed were drug deal­
ers and planned a lucrative life with his underw orld 
associates. They said he concocted the murder-for-hire 
plot so his activities w ouldn't come to light durine Irv­
in's drug trial.

Hernandez w ouldn't discuss the allegations, but has 
labeled as absolutely not true "rum ors and speculation" 
that he was involved in other misconduct w ith other
officers.

"My actions were my own. I alone am responsible," 
he said in a statem ent read by his lawyer after Friday's 
court appearance.

As for life after prison, Hernandez said he and Smith 

will start making marriage plans once he is free.

I think if w e're together through this, w e're definite­
ly going to stay together for that," he said. "W hat we 
went through together probably was the hardest thing 
that any couple would have to go through."

General m anager Floyd Reese

matter differently, but it is m andat­
ed by NFL rules.

It will be a crash course for Mills, 
the fourth-year pro who has played 
tight end, H-Back, fullback and slot 
receiver and been a dem on on spe­
cial teams. He moved to defense in 
the spring.

Until the spring he-'had never 
played defense in his' life," Oilers 
coach Jeff Fisher said. "H e's shown 
us instincts. you don't usually see 
out of guys who have n e v e r played 
defense. He was always an offen­
sive player with a defensive men­

"If they think it's best to redshirt

the offensive line. Whatever they 
decide is okay."

have the W ednesday off before

and helping his team to the state

invited to any all-star games. He 
hasn't played football since Dec. 2,

"I'm glad to get out of Ten­

way Tennessee recruited me. They 
played a bunch of recruiting games. 
When I committed to Texas, I got 
asked a million times if I hadn't 
been 
recruited by Tennessee. 
They're blind to anything that's not 
a part of the SEC. If they're that 
ignorant, I'm glad I'm not playing 
there."

The White Sox scored a run in the first

Chicago then broke the game open 
with a four-run second highlighted by

shot off the top of the right-field wall 
that m ade it 5-0. Dave Martinez con­
tributed an RBI single and Ray Durham 
had a sacrifice fly in the inning.

The White Sox knocked out Oliver in

And the White Sox extended their lead

Big 12

Continued from page 7

"Well, I have to admit w e're a lit­
tle surprised," Hatchell said of all 
the attention the Big 12 is getting. 
[Bob Griese's College Football] comes 
out and says that we're thé No. 1 
conference. You want to take all that 
you can, but y o i/re also realistic 
enough to know that there are going 
to be some years that they don't 
pick you.

I think that all this does is solidify 
for me why it's wonderful to be the 
commissioner of this conference, just 
because this conference is made up of 
special people. I like the idea that 
we re starting off at the top, because 
it's very much well deserved."

How is there any way that the Big 
12 w ouldn't start at the top? Each of 
the teams in the conference has an 
athletic history as storied as the 
institutions they represent.

The four Texas schools (Texas, 
A&M, Tech and Baylor) have m ade 
legends out of A&M's John David 
Crow, Texas' Bobby Layne, Tech's 
Donny Anderson, and Baylor's 
Mike Singletary. The four schools 
combined have four national titles 
and 49 Southwest Conference titles. 
In more recent history, the Aggies' 
"Wrecking Crew" and the Bears' 
"Wild Bunch" have made a name 
for themselves defensively. While 
Texas' "BMW offense" has fans 
ready for a fireworks display on sta­
dium scoreboards.

In the North, Iowa State possesses 
1995 s only 2,000-yard rusher in 
Troy Davis. Kansas State and 
Kansas finished No. 6 and No. 10 
respectively to turn their programs 
into contenders from also-rans. Col­
orado's head coach Rick Neuheisel 
makes news by taking his teams on 
ski trips and by hosting team parties 
at his home while finishing 10-2.

At times, it took a police blotter to

keep up w ith Nebraska in 1995 
while en route to its 12-0 record and 
a second-consecutive national title. 
But the leader of those two teams, 
quarterback Tommy Frazier, is gone 
and the questions are abound — can 
Scott Frost run the option well 
enough for the Huskers to three- 
peat?

The Big 12 is officially considered 
a merger between the old Big Eight 
and the four Texas schools from the 
SWC. Left out in the cold were Rice, 
SMU, TCU and Houston. The first 
three have moved onto the Western 
Athletic Conference while Houston 
is now a member of Conference 
USA.

Texas Tech coach Spike Dykes 
believes that the new increased 
competition is the key to gaining 
respect as a football program and as 
a conference.

"We're dropping Rice, Houston, 
and SMU. Last year, they won four 
games and lost 29," Dykes said of 
his Red Raiders, schedule for 1996. 
"W e're picking up Nebraska, 
Kansas, and Kansas State. They won 
32 games and lost four. Now, I'm 
not real good at arithmetic, but 
there is a correlation between who 
you play and how much harder it is 
to win sometimes. So it looks to me 
like we got our tails to the heater."

Dykes is not alone. Everyone will 
be feeling his way out this season as 
everyone is looking for footing in 
the new Big 12. Each team has its 
ow n mine 
to m aneuver 
around, and the two left intact get to 
fill out the lineup cards of Hatchell's 
dream game.

field 

Although it remains to be seen 
who will be the top teams in the 
conference, one thing is certain — 
big time college football is coming 
6
this fall.

Cowboys

Continued from page 7

the end zone untouched. For the 
an 
game, Gannon 
impressive 10 of 11 for 143 yards.

com pleted 

Starting quarterback Steve Bono 
looked rusty during three series, fin­
ishing with four completions in 10 
attem pts and one interception by 
Cowboy safety Darren Woodson But 
he led the Chiefs on a 71-yard drive 
for a field goal in the first quarter.

Aikman and Sanders lifted the 
Cowboys in the first quarter with a 
62-yard bomb that showed — if 
there were any doubts — the speedy 
erstw hile cornerback 
is a deep 
threat.

Sanders beat left cornerback Dar­
ren Anderson on a fly pattern, catch­
ing the ball in stride at the Chiefs' 40 
and running another 29 yards.

Dallas has been looking to bolster 
its receiving corps since the NFL

suspended Michael Irvin for fivé 
games after the star wideout plead­
ed no contest to a drug charge.

A chance for a touchdown was 
lost when running back Sherman 
Williams was stuffed for no gain on 
fourth down at the 2-yard line.

With star running back Emmitt 
Smith sidelined with a throat infec­
tion, the Cowboys' starting offense 
was stifled in the first half, m anag­
ing only a field goal.

Ihe (. hiefs added 

two touch­

downs in the fourth quarter.

Ihe C hiefs, who last year had a 
league-best 13-3 record during the 
regular season, did not have the 
crowd on their side. The fans in this 
northern Mexican city clearly are in 
the camp of the Super Bowl cham pi­
on C owboys, known in these parts 
as the "Vaqueros."

The game gave Monterrey, cele­
brating its 400th anniversary this 
year, a chance to preen before 
nationwide audiences in both coun­
tries. ABC televised it in the United 
States and Televisión Azteca 
in 
Mexico.

Monterrey, with a metropolitan 
population of 3 million, is a leading 
exporter of steel, glass and cement 
and a poster city for the North 
American Free Trade Agreement. It 
has more in common with Texas, its 
citizens say, than Mexico City.

I hat makes M onterrey fertile 
ground for NFL prom otion in a 
country where football is better 
known as a sport requiring a spher­
ical ball and a netted goal.

Hopefully, this can continue to 
grow ," NFL com m issioner Paul 
Tagliabue told TV Azteca, "a n d 
maybe som eday we'll have an 
expansion team here in Mexico."

Gastr Del Sol is nothing if not expansive. The duo behind 
the Chicago group, Jim O'Rourke and David Grubbs, brings 
together such a potlatch of musical styles that it is almost
impossible to pin down exactly what a particular performance 
by Gastr Del Sol will sound like.

The two compose sound rather than play it, bringing togeth­
er all manner of diverse elements — whispered ballads, free 
jazz improvisation, orchestral movements, ominous t$pe loops 

and create jaunts through various ideas about music.
Gastr Del Sol, willingly or not, is now firmly mired in the 
avant garde — the highbrow music which will surely turn off 
far more listeners than it will inspire.

By consistently jumping away from a sound once it has been 
established (the only constant in the band's amorphous reper­
toire) Gastr Del Sol forces the listener's mind and attention to 
jump also, something very few take to well.

On the other hand, Gastr Del Sol is an extremely popular 
group for the college rock scene of the moment, as the group 
represents a mildly more accessible connection between rock 
music and the avant garde — Grubbs' first connection to live 
music was through the punk rock of Squirrelbait and then the 
acclaimed sounds of his following group Bastro.

Gastr Del Sol recently released Upgrade and Afterlife, its sixth 
(or maybe seventh or eighth — w ho's counting?) album, 
which represents some of the group's newer avenues of inter­
est.

The album, as most of Gastr Del Sol's work is, is a collage of 
the ideas floating through the heads of O'Rourke and Grubbs 
at the moment.

"A lot of my m usical interest com es from when I was 
younger, and I would research things," says O'Rourke, who 
primarily plays guitar and electronic elements for the group.

"If I saw something referenced, I would go to the library 
and look it up. I spent quite a bit of time in the library doing 
this. For instance, Freak Out by the Mothers of Invention I 
remember hearing and looking up all the influences from it 
that I could."

Such an acad em ic approach to m usic ev en tu ally led 
O'Rourke away from his original interest in film and into the 
field of music composition.

After playing with such renowned improvizationalists as 
Eddie Prévost of AMM, O'Rourke made his way to the Chica­
go Art Institute, where he enrolled to study guitar.

"I was actually pretty com bative while in school," says 
O'Rourke. "I really don't want to say anything to support the 
school approach to music. I think the only thing it really did 
was force me to articulate what I thought was wrong.

"I met David about four or five years ago at the Art Insti­
tute. I was interested in possibly being in a rock outfit. I had 
basically been locked up in my room for a couple years, work­
ing on music, trying to save money to go overseas and play —
I really had no social life.

" I eventually got together the group Brise Glace to have the 
dynamic of being in a rock band. But David and I started writ­
ing stuff not long after we met.

"The writing tends to vary. There are a couple of songs on 
Upgrade that are just tape pieces by me, and then for example 
The Relay was written by David. Some are evenly written 
though."

"The new album was written over a period of four or five 
months, from the fall to the spring," says Grubbs, who tends to 
the piano as weH as the guitar and most of the vocals for Gastr 
Del Sol. 
It was the first time where we recorded entirely at 
Jim's studio. So we kept going back again and again to the 
material and tweaking it. All it came down to was the record­
ing budget, which was just the cost of tape.

"One thing I'm glad about is that despite the fact that we'd 
worked on it for four m onths it's still relatively ... open. 
There's not so much dense sedimentation. We'd try, try, try 
something and then get rid of it as opposed to adding on.

One of the ideas we had was working more with other 
musicians. We had lots of people sending in contributions by 
tape 
Tony Konrad, Günter Müller. ... That's one of the rea­
sons each track has a different feel from the previous one. 
When we reached the limits on our ability to strike out we 
called in other musicians.

For exam ple, G ünter M üller is a Sw iss-G erm an w e'd 
played with a couple of times. What we did was ask him for 
examples of certain types of his playing. He plays with com­
pact microphones instead of drumsticks, so we wanted the 
whiss-whiss of playing cymbals with compact discs. He sent us 
two hours of examples of stuff on tape, so we're pretty set up 
for Günter Müller. We used two or three out of maybe 40 
examples. It all goes into the tape library."

Grubbs' background in music may not be quite so formal as 
O 'Rourke's, but he is just as interested in it. "I'v e always 
played piano, O Rourke said. "I only picked up the guitar

Jim O’Rourke, left, and David Grubbs are the eclectic, experimental musicians of Gastr Del Sor
when I was about 13 to be in a rock band, so my style of piano 
playing hasn't changed that much. It isn't something I did on 
any of the Squirrelbait records and only intermittently on the

Bastro records. Jim of course has had a tremendous impa ct on 
Gastr Del Sol, every facet of it.

UPGRADE A tB A FTBttK
Artist: Gastr Del Sol 
Label: Drag City 
Rating: ★★★I2 (out of five)

W hile The H arp 
Factory on Lake Street 
was in terestin g for 
the fact that it didn't 
bog dow n 
in the 
pseudo-lyrics David 
G rubbs 
often
indulges in, it didn't 
quite reach its full 
experimental dimen­
sions.

U pgrade, on the 
oth er h and, 
finds 
more of O 'Rourke's 
in terestin g 
tape
experiments to use, and applies them effectively. From the 
opening sonic tremors of Our Excfuisite Replica o f "Eternity", 
the album is set to make more use of studio reworking than 
past albums have.

While one would assume that the seemingly accidental 
cut-offs and fades on albums like Mirror Repair were inten­
tional, one has to wonder, because Upgrade is the group's 
first album without these problems, and is also the first one 
the two labored over in the studio. Though it does have 
more ambient elements — kettles hissing, odd tones in the 
background — the most effective use is on songs like Hetlo 
Spiral, where the noisy and acoustic elements blend over 
Grubbs' crooning to create a pocket masterpiece.

Oddly enough, the album has almost as many musicians 
involved with it as the orchestral Harp Factory, yet since 
they contribute to only a few tracks apiece, their contribu­
tions strengthen the album as a whole instead of just single 
sections.

The distinctive sounds of Gene Coleman's bass clarinet 
or Tony Konrad's violin t>lehd into the sonic weave, build­
ing up the idea of Gastr Del Sol as a sound rather than a 
group of musicians who may only sej? each other once a 
year. This technique could certainly work well for the 
band, so long as they keep things under the firm control of 
O'Rourke and Grubbs.

The acoustic ballads (like Crappie Tactics) are still a bit 
underwhelming, though taken as a w hole, Upgrade and 
Afterlife is a fine album, if not necessarily quite as inspiring 
as the musicians Grubbs and O'Rourke clearly adore. But if 
imitation is the sincerest from of flattery, constant refer­
ences to those idols can't be far behind.

"I think playing without regular percussion has bee a the 
most instructive feature about Gastr Del Sol. For me, <?very 
group I d been in started with the backbeat. Everything h ad to 
be a certain volum e to accom m odate how the d ru m m er 
played.

I d write the occasional piano or synthesizer piece for Bas­
tro, but Gastr is the first time that I've had the amount of space 
for these sorts of dynamics in almost anything I've done.

"Of course, I still like rock music — I play in the Red 1 Cray­
ola, one of the great rock bands of all time! As a matter or fact, 
I m going to California [soon] to lay down tracks for the new 
Red Kray ola record."

Gastr Del Sol, though certainly the most removed o f the 
bunch, is still a part of the great Lou isville/C hicago axis, 
which has produced a horde of bands that all tread the same 
aesthetic ground, much to their own chagrin at times.

J hese banus ^Tortoise, The For C arnation, June o 1* '~~ 
Rachels and others) are all closely related, and seem to be 
doomed to forever ride the same train to fame and/or infamy. 
Now, it certainly is fame, as bands like Tortoise have become 
the hottest thing around for altogether too many indie roc kers.

"I generally like most of the bands that have come ou t of 
Louisville. There is a very tightly-knit group of people respon­
sible for things, a very small group of people. What it h as in 
common with Chicago is that it might seem like an incestuous 
thing. You can say Tortoise X... and list the same five bands as 
you would get if you said The For Carnation X."

There hasn t really been a problem with groups sounding 
too similar. I don't think that being derivative is an issu e," 
says Grubbs, picking his words carefully. "It would be r lice if 
people continue in the direction they're going, which is to 
spread out, to continue to make music that is different from 
anything that has ever been written before.

"That would be nice. It is funny that the people from Tor­
toise, The For Carnation et al. were in a core group of j: ■eople 
from high school. Mostly from people in hardcore bands. 
Squirrelbait was definitely a hardcore band at first — soi inded 
just like Minor Threat."

The two minds behind Gastr Del Sol also have other 1 things 
on deck. The two are hard at work on their Dexter's Cigar 
label, where they have been steadily reissuing records by 
artists like Mayo Thompson, Merzbow and Squirrelbait.

O'Rourke, bolstered by his success at working Faust's last 
U.S. tour into a record, has stepped himself up to being a pro­
ducer for groups like US Maple and Untitled, and w ill be 
working on records for Microstoria (ex- Mouse on Mar s peo­
ple, if you want to know) as well as doing a remix for To rtoise, 
and maybe even a new Brise Glace record. In a role re versal, 
Grubbs is working alone a bit more.

"I'm working on a record of solos for Table of the Ele ments. 
The only justification I can find for doing solo performa nces is 
to be on a record. I have to push myself to think about solo 
performances. I've done solo performances on piano and guitar 
but I've always felt underprepared.

"It's so rewarding playing with Jim 1 just get into th« ? habit 

— Joe Sebastian

of playing with another guitarist."

SOUND BITES

disc jockeys like mini-versions of 
the songs that follow. And the hits 
the bands produce spread across 
A m erica 
like w ild fire. A few 
months pass and even record store 
employees have forgotten many of 
the artists that were just in vogue. 
For New York City's nada surf and 
Knoxville's Superdrag, the prover­
bial 15-minute clock is rolling.

With a weak major label debut 
album, nada surf is off to a rocky 
start. Produced by Ric O casek, 
High/Low is a cut and paste cheat 
sheet of nada surf's influences tied 
together with the same effects every 
other pop band has used on their 
albums.

And in concert, not even digital 
delay, reverb and feedback used in

high concentrations can disguise 
sop h om oric ly rics that fill the 
album, like these in Psychic Caramel: 
"We will always be the sea/ Years 
will be 1/ You w ill s e e / Now I 
understand the M other's belly is 
here with me."
. Nada su rf's set began with an 
unnecessarily long sound check, 
which even the 14-year-olds in the 
crowd frowned upon. After more 
than 10 minutes of fumbling instru­
ments, and cute little remarks from 
the band, 
lead sin g er-g u itarist 
Matthew Caws coyly asked the kids 
in the front row to pretty please 
pass his set list to the sound techni­
cian. These little games would have 
been amusing in the 10th grade, 
which is precisely where the men­
tality of nada surf belongs. Exploit

sch ool" in more than two songs, 
nada surf is really grabbing for any­
thing to piece together as a tune.

Even worse, these guys are part of 
the clan of people who think if you 
take verses from all your various 
influences, blend them' together and 
change up a few riffs, you'll have an 
original piece of music. Picking out 
their influences is about as difficult 
as playing pin-the-tail-on-the-don- 
key without a blindfold.

Sleep, the next single from the 
albu m , cam e off lik e a sh allow 
mutation of Sonic Youth's Bull in the 
H eather. On S talem ate, M atthew 
Caws transformed his voice into the 
best Perry Farrell he could muster.

The hit that is currently in heavy 
rotation on the radio, Popular, was 
the only song on which the band 
appears to have spent much time 
reh earsin g. And sin ce that song 
sounds like it could have been writ­
ten in one afternoon during high 
school gym class, it's no wonder the 
crowd acted with a similar level of 
interest; after the band performed 
Popular, at least a third of the crowd 
left the club. If nada surf actually 
manages to sustain the post-buzz 
burn out, maybe the members can 
arrange a-retum-to-high school tour

Superdrag in the studio
to come up with some new materi­
al. 

•

Superdrag, on the other hand, 
had plenty to say. Jumping on stage 
and lead in g o ff with a superb 
extended version of Slot Machine, 
the band led the audience through a 
high speed mesh of pop m elody 
and kinetic guitars.

Superdrag's new release, Regret­
fully Yours, is a noteworthy collec­
tion of reasonably diverse and well- 
written songs. Appropriately, the 
band brought with it a genuine 
enthusiasm to the steamy Electric 
Lounge Friday n igh t. A tigh t 
rhythm section comprising bassist 
Tom Papas and drummer Don Cof­
fey Jr. shone through on Phaser and 
Destination Ursa M ajor.

Superdrag is just as aware of its 
buzz band status as it is of the post­
buzz d old ru m s that aw ait the 
majority of bands struggling in the

pop music arena.

P refa cin g the cu rren t sin g le 
Sucked O ut, w ith a su rpri sijngly 
accurate im itation of e v ery o n e 's 
favorite R ep ublican, John paVis 
called ou t to the crow d, 
"I'm 
Kennedy and you 're listen in g to 
Alternative Nation."

W ith S u cked Out, Su p e'rd rag 
pleads to the au dience, be gging 
them to notice the reason thi s band 
is on stage performing, "this is my 
dream , playing our r o c k ir / rou­
tine."

After all, regardless of w ho the 
audience is, it is the musicia n who 
has to communicate the feelii ig that 
only the arena of live perfot manee 
can p ro vid e. O th erw ise, w ith 
today's technological conven iences, 
what other reason is there to see 
them perform in concert?
