The decision to appoint a committee to review the issu e cam e a day after a W illiam son County jury ruled in favor of a former UT employee who blew the whistle on UT royalty collection policies.

"D uring elections som e of the Republican id e a s are a w aste of time. [It's the] sam e thing with the Democrats.

Political leaders from both parties agree that the H ispan ic vote will be a d ecid in g factor in future elections. Roberto Alonzo, chairman of the Mexican American Democrats, said when Democrats address issues important to the livelihood of Hispanics, the base of Democratic Hispanic voters will grow. A lonzo said 70 percent of the H ispan ic community in Texas votes Democratic and the other 30 percent vote Republican. "By and large the Republican Party shuns the issu e s of affirm ativ e action, English- only, immigration, judicial redistricting and education," Alonzo said. But Republicans Party officials said they are w orking to increase H ispan ic sup p ort for their party. Frank Alvarez Jr., director of the Hispanic Outreach Program for the Republican Party of Texas, said that the Republican Party has significant Hispanic voter support and that more than 50 conservative H ispanic candi­ dates appear on ballots throughout Texas. A lv a r e z s a id the p a r ty is try in g to increase the total of H ispan ic R epublican voters by at least 15 percent through p ro­ gram s and workshops.

"P eople have not been inform ed on the issues in Texas where we see large pockets o f H is p a n ic s w ith o n e -p a rty ru le by Dem ocrats," Alvarez said. Alvarez added that the Republican Party of T ex as ta rg e ts H isp a n ic p ro fe ssio n a ls, businessm en and the young who agree with the conservative ideologies of family values.

But under the new zero-tolerance rule, any resident with a crim inal background who jeopardizes anoth­ er resid en t's safety can be evicted from the-apartm ent com plex.

"They have done a good job with clean in g up the property, but the zero-tolerance rule has got every­ body," Cisneros said. Orlando Andino, housing manager of Thurmond Heights, said he is doing things by the book and the zero-toler- ance rule has brought the drug and g an g p roblem s, that w ere once so prevalent, down to a minimum. He stressed that with the zero-tol­ erance rule, residents get "one strike and they're out. We only evict peo­ ple that have a past that could affect other residents."

But Brigid Shea, a form er coun- cilmember, said reducing the debt is easier said than done. "It is a highly com plex process," Shea said.

Jim Dedman Royalty: Collection policy to be reviewed Continued from page 1 that UT failed to collect in excess of $100 million." UT officials said the royalty collections were adminis­ tered in accordance with UT policy. The University Board for Lease first considered creat­ ing a committee in 1994 after examining Luna's audit findings. But Pam Bacon, an attorney in the Office of General C ou n sel and secretary o f the U n iv ersity Board for Lease, said a blue-ribbon committee to study collection policy has not yet been formed. "The purpose of the committee would be to look at the current Board for Lease policy' to see if it's appropri­ ate to change the policy in any way," Bacon said. T hroughout the m onthlong trial, Herring said UT officials could not cite the provision of the Board for Lease policy that made exceptions to the payment poli­ cies of the state. "Their explanation of the Board for Lease policy was in legal interpretation," Herring said. Herring also criticized the UT System's auditing pro­ cedure, and said, "It com promises the integrity of the audit process." "It made no sense to have [Stephen Hartmann, direc­ tor of West Texas Oil Operations], w ho is supposed to be collecting, co n tro llin g a u d its to see if he did," Herring said. "It's the fox guarding the chicken house."

"There have been similar investiga­ tions and it's a pretty good way to reclaim a neighborhood," he said.

But Charles Curry, budget officer for the city, said although individ­ ual hom eow ners may pay more in tax es, th e ra te s h a v e ste a d ily declined in the last few years. Curry said the value of property has increased. If the property value th e ra te in c re a s e s fa s te r th a n declines, property owners may have to pay more, he added. Russell Hur, an appraiser for the Travis C entral A ppraisal District, agreed. "If you h a v e a new h o u se or a p a rtm e n t com plex, you ad d the value of that property to the rolls," H ur said. "If the rate goes dow n, but not more than the value of the property goes up, there will still be m ore tax d o llars [collected] even though the rate is lower." Tlidis Austin, governm ent affairs d ire c to r for the A u stin B oard of But C harles Curry, b u d ­ get officer for the city, said although individual hom eow ners may pay m ore in taxes, the rates have steadily declined in the last few years. Realtors, said Austin Independent School District and Travis County property taxes are higher than those levied by the city. She said property taxes add to the overall cost of the house, causing new home owners to search for less expensive houses. N ew h o m e b u y e rs so m e tim e s have a difficult time qualifying for hom es, b e c a u se th ere are n o t as m any firs t-b u y e r h o m es in th e Austin area, she said. New hom es u s u a lly ru n in the $70,000 to $100,000 price range, she said. Austin said not being able to find an affordable home in Austin some­ times pushes new home buyers into the suburbs, w here they can get a larger house for the same price with a d d e d a m e n itie s su ch as la rg e r yards and more space. But she said those p eople w ho live in the city of Austin enjoy the conveniences of living close to a large city. "It is a trade-off," she said. She added that property taxes do go toward projects that benefit citi­ zens, like im proving infrastructure and increasing police protection. Schuarte said $2 million in funding for cultural arts and funding for pro­ grams such as neighborhood policing and a graffiti coordinator are good programs, but are not a priority, like reducing the city's debt. "We can't afford to get into debt paying those things," Schuarte said. Schuarte added the council did the right thing by elim inating the pedestrian coordinator position this summer. The position was approved by the co u n c il b e fo re tw o new co u n cil members were elected in June. The position for a pedestrian coordina­ tor w as designed to m ake A ustin more "pedestrian friendly." Citizens and council members felt the position was important, but not e n o u g h to m erit its in d iv id u a l ' salary of $45,000. Schuarte said although he thinks it is too early to criticize the council, he doubts it is going to make many changes. "It is too early, but the trends are not happy to suggest this council is going to do anything different than past city councils in reducing the city debt," Schuarte said.

U p until today my only w riting consisted of headlines, photo captions and w hatever blurbs w ere needed in my countless g raph ­ ics.

VIEWPOINT Abortion rights In A rkansas Tuesday, g overnm ent officials and a local abortion p ro v id er com prom ised on the fate of a 15-year-old, developm entally disabled incest victim . Their agreem ent provides that, until 1998, p ri­ vate groups, instead of the state, w ill fund abortions for rape or incest victims. S ound unusual? It is. This issue arose because the A rkansas State C onstitution currently bans public financing of abortion except to save a m oth er's life. Thus, ------------------------------------------------- Gov. M ike H uckabee, a Southern The U.S. Supreme Court Baptist m inister and a rd en t p ro ­ lifer, refused to honor the Little ruled that Arkansas m ust Rock Fam ily Planning C linic's follow federal law to be $430 abortion-related M edicaid claim. eligible for Medicaid fund­ ing, u nd er which the state received $900 million this year. Hence, Arkansas faces a difficult decision. H enceforth, p riv a te d o n o rs will provide sim ilarly situ ated w o m en w ith fam ily p la n n in g services, and A rkansas will use federal M edicaid for other w o r­ thy pu rposes. This resolution nicely blends indigent victim s' abortion rights w ith the m oral reservations of a large percentage of Am ericans. T hanks to a com prom ise, the th e m edical victim attention she required. received But it's illegal. In 1993, the H yde A m endm ent w as m odified so that federal law requires M edicaid to pay for abortions in cases of rape or incest. A nd, u n d e r the Suprem acy Clause, federal law trum ps state law w ith regard to adm inistratio n program s like M edicaid. For this reason, the A rkansas provision w as declared u n co n stitu ­ tional. The U.S. Suprem e C ourt ruled that A rkansas m ust follow fed­ eral law to be eligible for M edicaid funding, w hich the state received $900 of m illion this year. Hence, A rkansas faces a difficult decision. As H uckabee said, the situation parallels th at of 1973, w hen states could keep speed lim its above 55 m ph — if they w ere w illing to forsake federal high w ay d ol­ lars. P erhaps A rkansas conservatives should stand up for the right to life and refuse W ashing ton's $900 m illion. T hat will do the rest of A m erica a huge favor deficit-wise. Just let those in du strious Little Rock bankers find an o th er source for 75 percent of A rkansas's M ed­ icaid budget. Or, H uckabee an d Co. can accept federal m oney an d abide by fed­ eral law. In 1957, A rkansas Gov. O rval Faubus tried to defy a federal court o rd e r by using N ational G uard sm en to p rev en t desegregation of C en­ tral H igh School in Little Rock. Like the rest of America, A rkansas public schools are now open to all races. Som e folks never learn. GOP convention disappoints controversy-hungry media D escending u p o n San Diego this week, m edia correspondents hun g ered for rancor and controversy at the Republican N ational C onvention. They have not found any. The naysay ers w ho b randed 1992's convention "intolerant" will find only hope and opti­ m ism in San Diego. R epublicans h av e offered A m erica an inclusive and positive m essage. A ppealing to citizens' hopes, speakers called for tax relief and less governm ent interference. If im p lem en ted , such m easu res create great o p p o rtu n ities and pave the w ay for n a tio n al p ro sp e rity . D o le's 15 p ercent across-the-board tax cuts allow A m ericans to keep m ore of their incom e to p u rsu e their goals. Such tax cuts do not favor a select g ro u p of A m ericans; they b enefit every Am erican. As Jack K em p likes to say, "a rising tide lifts all boats." Jim Dedm an TEXAN COLUMNIST K em p and Colin Powell are the tw o m ajor figures signifying the em pow erm ent w ing of Lincoln's party. The form er quarterback and U.S. representative and the retired gen­ eral grabbed headlin es for the enth u siasm they inspired in convention delegates. D ole's selection of Kemp as his ru n nin g m ate was the m ost exciting convention pre­ lude. O n the heels of his bold econom ic pack­ age, Dole energized his party by choosing the p o pu lar form er Secretary of H ousing and U rban D evelopm ent. K em p w as the only Republican w ho could sim ultaneously unify and electrify his party. An avid sup- ply-sider, K em p is adored by econom ic con­ servatives, w hile his solid pro-life congres­ sional voting record appeases social conser­ vatives. Furtherm ore, Kemp appeals to Rea­ gan D em ocrats and Independents, as well as m inorities and union m em bers. Party leaders have lauded D ole's selection of the optim istic Kemp. In fact, the only real criticism D em ocrats have offered is that Dole and K em p have disagreed in the past. Though rivals in 1988, both agree on eco­ nom ic grow th and the perils of big govern­ ment. R unning m ates need not be ideologi­ cal clones. A passionate econom ic grow th advocate, Kemp favors enterprise zones, free trade, and sw eeping tax cuts. Kem p feels freedom from high taxes and excessive regulation will allow A m ericans to create m any m ore jobs an d sm all businesses. "The appeal of grow th and o p p o rtu nity crosses every bou n d ary of geography, cli­ m ate and race," Kem p said of his p ro ­ grow th philosophy. H ow true. W ith an extraordinary knack for reaching beyond the p arty 's boundaries, and a positive agenda for change, K em p can tru ly seek the su p p o rt of "every single A m erican from the boroughs of N ew York to the barrios of California." Pow ell's convention speech inspired the delegates. Though a su p p o rter of abortion rights and affirm ative action, Powell hails R epublican efforts to achieve econom ic o p p o rtunity by lessening the b u rd en s of heavy taxation and big governm ent. "W e are the party com m itted to lessening the b u rd en of taxes, cutting governm ent spending, all for the pu rp ose of generating higher econom ic grow th that will bring bet­ ter jobs, w ages and living stan d ard s to all our people," he said. "A t the sam e time, let us never step back from com passion." The GOP is reaching out to new constituencies w ith calls for em p ow ering the d isa d v a n ­ taged. Powell m ade com passion a central them e of his speech. A great ad m irer of Kemp, Pow ell w h o le h ea rte d ly ag ree s w ith the Republican em pow erm ent agenda. G overn­ m ent w elfare program s offer their recipients entrapm ent, not com passion. A vibrant econom y, driv en by citizens free of b urd en so m e governm ent regulations and taxes, can achieve w h at governm ent bureaucrats cannot. Enthusiastically end ors­ ing the D ole-K em p ticket, Powell praised their efforts to stim ulate econom ic grow th by low ering taxes. Tonight, Dole and Kemp will ad d ress the nation from San Diego. The C linton a d m in ­ istration does not w ant A m erica to hear their ideas. This is because D ole's econom ic pack­ age, and K em p's and Pow ell's vision, illus­ trate the D em ocrats have no m onopoly on com passion. Dedman is a history junior. FIRING LINE Sense of humor In response to C hristopher Pur- d o m 's letter "Gig 'em " (8 /1 3 /9 6 ), I m u st say he is overreacting to a very sim ple m atter. H is reference to "so p h o m o ric insu lts and childish atte m p ts at subtle hum or" are correct in every w ay. O f course w e at the U niversi­ ty poke fun at the Aggies; I w ould be shocked and h u rt if they did not pay us the sam e treatm ent. It all goes along w ith the long­ stan d in g rivalry an d tradition the tw o schools enjoy. W ithout it, life at either school w ould be banal at best. I have been reading The Texan for th e last year an d I can n ev er rem em ber a tim e w hen any of its re p o rte rs becam e vicious a n d attacked A&M. Sure there have been a few ribs poked b ut nothing m ean; it is all in fun. So yes they m ay be guilty at "s o p h o m o ric " "ch ild ish hum or" b ut they have kept it clean. S om ething that Mr. Purdom has not done by calling The Texan "a rag." and By doing so he has insulted the e n tire U n iv ersity of Texas in a m ean spirited m anner and should be asham ed of him self. A nother suggestion: if you do n 't like w hat you are reading, then d o n 't read it! It is people like Mr. P u rd o m w ho cause the fun-filled rivalry betw een the tw o schools to becom e so bitter. M y advice is to just sit back and take a joke. I can. C a n 't you? Jeffrey Bean History sophomore Know your facts Before n u m b ers p u b lish in g reported in a Finny Line — specifi­ cally the reported loss of 24 assis­ tan t instructors in low er division Spanish — p erhaps it w ould m ake sense to confirm those figures.

H ow could anyone believe we can continue doing w hat it is w e're doin g to this planet and not start to feel the effects? I'm terribly interested to hear w hat these corporate types will say in 50 years w hen California is a series of m oun tain o us islands, the Eastern seaboard starts in Ohio, and a loaf of b read costs $500. "H ey w hat are all of you com plain­ ing about? Y ou've got jobs and cheap gas — isn 't that w hat you voted us into office for?"

Republicans are counting on him to carry those voters aw are that after some thirty years of public service, Dole still does not know anything the econom y. about controllin g D ole's plan to cut taxes for "every­ one" is not only a bad idea finan­ cially, it is also the m ost flagrant show of e le c tio n y e a r p o litic s sin ce C lin to n sig n e d th e m o ro n ic Iran an d L ibya S an ctio n A ct of 1996.

Stev e Taylor, A pp lied M aterials Inc. corporate affairs manager, said em ploy­ ees w ere laid o ff "b ase d on .w hat jobs w ere least required because the business took a downturn." The com pany, located east of Austin, m a k es se m ico n d u cto r m a n u fa c tu rin g equipment. An Applied Materials Inc. m anufactur­ ing technologist, who wished to remain anonymous, said though he was not laid off, the threat of future layoffs still hangs over his head. "First of all, I am relieved. There have been rum ors for m onths," he said. "For the time-being I am making no long-term plans. If things get worse there could be m ore layoffs in the future." The source said em ployees w ere told about the layoffs Tuesday and that they w ould be notified W ednesday by m an­ agem ent w hether or not they would be laid off. Applied M aterials Inc. officials said the company is restructuring itself because of the worldwide surplus in memory chips in the sem iconductor industry. A contract worker who previously did assembly work at Applied Materials and does not want to be identified because he does not w ant to jeopardize future con­ tracts also said the layoffs were expected. "You could see it coming. Business had been falling for some tim e," he said. "It w as so rt o f a toss up b ecau se I d id n 't know w hat Applied was going to do." Som e local engineering stud ents and professors are worried about the effects the layoffs will have on the job market in Austin. Billy Wood, a mechanical engineering u nd ergrad u ate ad viser, said there w ill probably be one less em ployer recruiting on campus this year. But Wood said the College of Engineering has a 95 percent placement rate of its students immediate­ ly after graduation so students will not be d irectly affected unless they plan to remain in Austin. "W e w on't see an effect at all because the quality of our program is excellent," Wood said. "I think som e of our former stu d en ts w ho w ork w ith them may be laid off." Nancy Evans, program director for the UT Engineering C areer Assistance C en­ ter, said e n g in e e rin g u n d e rg ra d u a te s may be affected. "For the last four years Applied M ate­ rials Inc. has been a big em ployer of our undergraduates," she said. A pp lied M aterials Inc. o fficials said they hope the market will be better next year. Taylor said, in addition to the layoffs, the surplus of memory chips has caused Applied customers to delay orders. " I t is c y c lic a l. T h e re a re u p s and d o w n s," Taylor said. "C om p u ter chips w ill alw ay s be n eed ed and th ere w ill always be a m arket," Taylor added. Applied Materials Inc. employees exit onto U.S. Highway 290 and leave work behind. The high-tech company in Austin plans to lay off 340 employees. A company spokesman said the company expects the downturn in the industry to be temporary. RUDY MELENDEZ/Daily Texan Staff Local politicians react to Republican convention COLIN POPE Daily Texan Staff The Republican Party's efforts to broaden its appeal to moderates have made the con­ vention a success, Texas party leaders said. But Texas Democrats said those same efforts are weakening the Republican platform. After retired Gen. Colin Pow ell's m oder­ ate op en in g speech M onday, w hich ch al­ lenged the beliefs of many conservatives in the audience with his defense of abortion rights, affirm ative action and open im m i­ gration policies, Republicans said they are stronger and more united than ever. After Tuesday's onslaught of Republican women questioning President Clinton's fis­ cal policies and personal integrity, Republi­ cans said things could not be going better. This despite the fact that the two keynote speakers, U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison and Rep. Susan Molinari of New York City, support abortion rights, which goes against Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole's strong anti­ abortion plank in his party platform. "W e are delighted with the way the conven­ tion is going so far," said Royal Masset, politi­ cal director for the Republican Party of Texas. "W e feel it is really hitting home, mainly due to Jack Kemp and the female speakers." Republican Party members said the GOP's attem pt to find peace in the m iddle of the road has been a success, but Anne Marie Kil- day, spokeswoman for the Democratic Party of Texas, said their efforts have backfired. "Overall, I think it is a wonderful televi­ sion show — a made-for-TV m ovie," Kilday said. "W e have not heard from one single convention speaker, at any tim e, who has stood up and defended the party's position on issues that affect Am erican's lives." Powell, who is more moderate than most d eleg a te s at th e co n v e n tio n , q u estio n ed some of the key elem ents of the Republican Platform in his speech Monday, but made it clear that he supports both Dole and Kemp, who will accept the GOP's presidential and vice presidential nominations Thursday. Powell called Dole a "man of courage" and Kemp a "man of passion and conviction." Dole's primary rival, Pat Buchanan, ended his holdout on the first day of the convention and endorsed the Dole-Kemp ticket. T exas G ov. G eo rg e W. B u sh , w ith h is father, form er President Bush, at his side, also charmed the delegates M onday night with his skill, grace and popularity. R e p u b lic a n s a tte m p te d to o v e rc o m e D ole's gender gap Tuesday by presenting his agenda with a female face and taking a more direct aim at Clinton. In an attempt to win female votes, Republi­ can women attacked the president's character and economic anxieties of the middle class. "T h is speech is a lot like a Bill C linton prom ise," M olinari said in a speech at the convention. "It w on't last long, and it will sound like a Republican talking." M asset said T u esd ay 's fem ale speakers w ill p la y a k ey ro le in sw in g in g m o re female votes towards the Dole-Kemp ticket. "It is good to make it obviously clear that we have excellent female leadership," M as­ set said. "I think we have done that." M asset also said fem ale speakers' view s on abortion will not have a negative effect on the Republican campaign. "D iscu ssio n about abortion is really not going on within the party and is not an issue in term s of C linton," he said. "C learly, the focus of the convention is going to be the econ­ omy and character. That's what we are hear­ ing and that7s what the nation will focus on." But Kilday said personal attacks against the president are designed to take the pub­ lic's attention away from w here it should be — the issues. "T h e s e p e rso n a l a tta c k s on P re sid e n t Clinton avoid talking about his record," Kil­ day said. "H e has been able to achieve what Republicans said all along they were going to do, which was cut the deficit." Masset said, in the future, the focus of the GOP convention will be the economy, which Dole has made a centerpiece of his campaign, promising to cut taxes 15 percent while still balancing the budget by the year 2002. But Kilday said the Republican Party stands to lose support with Dole's economic plans. "Everybody likes the idea of a 15 percent cut in income taxes, but how is that going to be m ade u p ?" Kilday said. "It is going to cause a $548 million shortfall in federal rev­ enu e, w h ich w ill resu lt in the cu ttin g of social programs. But which programs? That has a lot of people concerned." M asset said the G O P's presentation of its econom ic plans "w ill be done in a positive fashion." "W ith our plan, we trust the individual to spend your money, as opposed to the govern­ ment," he said. "W e will run with our vision and Clinton's vision will be clear. There will be two different and clear choices." ■ j$¿% *' . . "s'* *v -i. IN AUSTIN Tfie Bagel Manufactory, near the UT cam pus on the Drag, is open 7:30 a.m . to 4 p.m .

In som e p arts of the country, college football fans look at their team 's schedule each year and circle one gam e that stan d s out above the rest. in C alifornia, it's Southern California versus UCLA.

To all the die-hard fans from each school, it d o esn 't m atter h o w bad the season was. Tire For the first tim e since 1976, OSU can m ake that claim. The C ow boys' 4-8 season w as a d is­ app ointm en t to m any, b u t a suc­ cess based solely on the fact that on one fine day in N ovem ber, the C ow boys toppled the Sooners 12-0. "The OU w in w as a big w in for the state," O klahom a State head coach Bob Simmons said. "To all of o u r alum s, they really appreci­ ated that, because w e had not w on that game in 19 years. The intrastate rivalry is good, but you have to set your sights higher than that. M C E N ow , y ou have the T exas', the Nebraskas, and the C olorados, and th at's w here you have to focus." The w in wáte a m ajor shot in the arm for a program still trying to find itself after being ripped apart by an three-year NCAA probation sentence levied in 1989. O ne year after the greatest back in school his­ tory, Barry Sanders, left for the pros, an NCAA com m ittee found m ore than 40 infractions, m ainly concerning the paym ent of players by alum ni. The attitude of "doom and gloom " overtook the cam pus in Stillwater, Okla., and running back David T hom pson still rem em bers the day that new life had sp ru ng for OSU. "Ever since [Simmons] cam e in, things in Stillw ater have brightened up," Thom pson said 'You could tell from the start that things w ere going to brighten up. Players had a new attitude, the coaches were great, and it w as a step in the right direction." A ny step is a step in the right direction.

LONGHORN FOOTBALL NOTES Holmes’ improved look impresses coaches ■ Tw o years ago, it appeared Priest H olm es w ould be the L onghorns’ m ain run n in g back in 1995. He w as com ing off a Sun Bowl MVP appearance in w hich he carried the ball 27 tim es for 161 y ards and four touchdow ns. Texas had som e new tailbacks com ing in, but H olm es seem ed to have a firm grip on the starting job. In a spring practice, how ever, H olm es tore the anterior cruciate ligam ent in his left knee, forcing him out for the season. N ow he has retu rn ed , b ut his startin g positio n is no longer tailbacks, Shon M itchell and Ricky W illiam s, ru shed for 2.089 total yards and Priest H olm es' role for the 19% season w as uncertain there. The new "I see m yself fitting in, playing my role," Holm es said. "It's all in G od 's plan. 1 saw this as a chance to m ature." Holmes has becom e m ore focused mentally, as well as physically. Knowing that he could not help the team by getting out of shape, Holmes said he dedicated his new -found free time to w orking out and the results are obvi­ ous. His w eight increased from 190 pounds to 210, and his speed improved. "H e's the most physical back we have," running backs coach Bucky G odbolt said "If you notice his body, h e 's carved like some­ thing sp ec ia l.... I think he'll be a Sunday play­ er. Two years ago I couldn't have said that." H olm es will join W illiams and Mitchell in a sta r-stu d d e d backfield. R ushing y ard s could be hard to find at such a packed posi­ tion, b u t G odbolt expects all three backs to receive a good num ber of runs. "D on't be surprised if Mackovic finds a w ay to get all three in there at one tim e," G odbolt said. QB Brown looks strong, shows no sign of injury ■ Q uarterback James Brown, w ho is being w atched closely to d eterm ine if he is over last season's injuries, looked good W ednesday. He threw the ball hard, as well as show ing the lightning quickness he possessed before injurin g his ankle last year. But it w as B row n's m ental gam e that im pressed M ack­ ovic the most. "I'm really im pressed w ith James Brown," Mackovic said. "1 really like how he sees w h a t's happening." Brown has been a big w orry for Texas fans this sum m er. R um ors circulated that the junior quarterback's rehabilitation w as not going very well, but he has squashed those rum ors thus far in sum m er camp. UT practices in full pads ■ For the first time this sum m er, the Long­ horns practiced in full pads on W ednesday, participating in full-contact drills in both the afternoon and m orning practice sessions. "The first day [with pads] w as good," head coach John Mackovic said "1 thought we Red shirt looms for Clayton ■ Because of the incredible d epth at the ru n ­ ning back position, senior Jeffrey C layton will likely be redshirted this season The 5-10, 207-pound tailback played in all 13 gam es last year, rushing for 124 yards on 23 carries. "I everything goes well, w e'll hold out Jef­ frey Clayton," Mackovic said "W e'll w ork in Neil, Jackson receive praise from coach ■ Offensive linem an Dan Neil and re c en e r C urtis Jackson w ere singled out W ednesday by M ackovic for their strong perform ances this sum m er. Jackson, w ho w as redshirted last season, has been a pleasant su rp rise since m oving from tailback to receiver after his sophom ore year. In 1994, as a junior, he caught 27 passes for 407 yard s and tw o touchdow ns. N ow he will step into the sta rt­ ing role opposite Mike A dam s. The add ition of C urtis Jackson at receiver is really w orking out for us," M ackovic said. ... 1 like his leadership, his catching ability everything he's doing." Neil, w ho is not a surprise, is the leader of th e team, on and off the field. In a poll of the players, Neil and linebacker Tyson King each received 21 votes as the team leader. James Brown w as third, receiving seven votes. "It's obvious w h en [Neil's] not out there," M ackovic said. "H e 's been an all-Am erican. 1 think he's the best right g uard in college foot­ ball " — B y D a vid Livingston.

D aw son held a new s confer­ ence W ednesday to confirm that he'll retire at the end of the sea­ son, and the w ords d id n 't come easily for the 42-year-old Florida M arlins outfielder. He rubbed his eyes, sniffled, sighed and stopped several times to regain his com posure, once pausing for m ore than a m inute. D a w so n 's w ife, V anessa, cam e to the rescue by joining him at the lectern and reading the first p art of his statem ent. "Som e nine years ago, m ost critics thought that I w as physi­ cally unable to continue as a pro­ fessional baseball player," she read. "B ut I did. N ow the time has come for me to bid farewell to my jealous lover — baseball." The announcem ent w as h a rd ­ ly a surprise; D aw son said last m onth he expected to retire this year.

Even in his final season, the player nicknam ed H aw k stands at the plate w ith a m enacing look few can match. A nd as a rig h t fielder, he has w on six G old Gloves. Majerle changes mind about Miami ■ M IA M I — Dan Majerle, fly­ ing to M iami to sign w ith the Heat, apparently had a change of heart d u rin g an airport lay­ over in D allas and returned to Phoenix. "T he d oor is still open w ith D an M ajerle," H eat sp o k e s­ w om an Kim Stone said W ednes­ day. O n T uesday, coach Pat Riley said he w as on the verge of sign­ ing a free agent and prom ised a big announcem ent. He did not m en tio n M ajerle by nam e, although clearly he w as refer­ ring to the veteran guard. M ajerle's agent, C urt Schoep- pler, w as in M iam i and h ad reached an oral agreem ent w ith the H eat on M onday, The M ia m i Herald re p o rte d .

He was 46. Police said their earlier reports of Mees rescuing his 4-year-old daugh­ ter from the pool could not be con­ firmed. "W e believe at this point there was no rescue attem pt," said Southington police Capt. Domenic Lombardo. Police initially told The Associat­ ed Press that Mees jumped into the pool to save his daughter, Gabrielle. Capt. Lombardo said Wednesday night the only people present during the accident were Mees and his two daughters, Gabrielle and Lauren, 8. Police said they have not yet exten­ sively view ed children. inter­ the Mees' wife, M i c h e l l e , found her hus­ band at the bot­ tom of the pool Lauren after their ran home next door to get her, police said. The younger child was out of the pool. Mees to H is wife then began screaming for help. A lawn maintenance man pulled Mees from the water, police and fire officials said. Mees had no pulse or respiration when he was brought to Bradley Memorial Hospital at 2:50 p.m. and efforts to revive him failed. He was pronounced dead at 3:15 p.m., said Richard Corcoran, hospital vice president. "Tom was an ESPN pioneer and the entire ESPN family is devastated by this terrible news," said Steve Bornstein, president of the sports cable network, which is headquar­ tered in neighboring Bristol. Mees was the anchor of ESPN 's nightly highlights show SportsCeuter from the network's inception on Sept. 7, 1979, until 1993. Since then, he worked as the play- by-play N H L commentator on sister network ESPN2, generally calling two games a week. Over the past two years, he also broadcast college football and basketball and hosted the N H L draft. Mees is survived by his wife and two daughters. There was no immediate word on funeral arrangements. OSU: Cowboys understand low expectations Continued from page 7 sons, and this year is no different. Making a strong push this August has been Joe Phears from Pasadena C ity College. The junior transfer is bigger and stronger, but Jones has the experience and the proven stats. Jones ranks third in school history in passing yards and needs only 379 more yards to move into second behind M ike Gundy. Jones finished '95 with a paltry 1,185 yards and seven touchdowns, and is expected to start the season against South­ west Missouri State August 31. In a rebuilding process, injuries must be avoided. Starting wide receiver Kent Luck injured his right knee in workouts last week and is expected to be back for the second game of the season against Texas Tech. Filling the role is a pair of freshmen. Adam Edw ards and Cameron W hite rotate in with sophomores Terrance Richardson and W illie Grissom to help with the passing attack. In Thompson, the Cowboys prob- aKiv the onlv 1.500+ yard rush­ er who isn't known outside his own state. The Big Eight pick and honor­ able mention All-Am erican has 2,794 yards during his three-year career. O SU is aptly named "Tailback U " for its ability to produce outstand­ ing backs like Barry Sanders, Terry M iller and Thurman Thomas, and Thompson wants to be mentioned in the same breath as past Cowboy greats. "There are times that I want to turn your head," Thompson said. "I want to be an impact player, but I'm still working to get better. This is my last go-around, and to have a suc­ cessful season and be bowl bound would be like a dream." W ithout a doubt, defensive line is the biggest question mark for O SU this season. The Cowboys lost out­ side rush threat Jevon Langford to the N FL and lost Jamal W illiam s, B illy Ensey and Russell Ensey to grades. Returning to the fold is senior Jay Grosfield. He must increase his pro­ duction at defensive tackle (48 tack­ les in '95), for O SU has two new­ comers at the other tackle and nose guard spots. A 6-3 freshman, Court­ ney M allory, and a transfer from Tennessee, Brandon Ashley, are at the top of the very thin depth chart this fa!!. I he iinebacker corps is a mixed bag of two seniors and six sopho­ mores on the two-deep depth chart. At the outside linebacker spot, Louis Adams returns after a season of spot play at the position. Josh Green and Taber LeBlanc return the most expe­ rience in to the inside linebacker unit, and both are hot off their fresh­ men debuts of 104 tackles and two interceptions combined. The defensive secondary has to be the strongest position on the team. Right cornerback R.W . McQuarters is tagged by Simmons as "the best player we have coming back." He is a sophomore and is teamed with fel­ low sophomore Jitu Criddle on the left comer. Free safety Trent Fisher was sec­ ond on the team in tackles last sea­ son w ith 91, and strong safety Courtney Garner had two sacks to his credit in '95. Not to Simm ons' surprise, his Cowboys are picked to battle for the fifth spot in the six-team South d ivi­ sion of the new Big 12. The longtime defensive specialist with West V ir­ ginia and Colorado isn't fazed by the preseason predictions, though. "W hen you finish 4-8 and haven't won in the last 10 years, from a media standpoint, that doesn't both­ er me/' Simmons said. A hard headed coach is just what a rebuilding program needs. Sim ­ mons has seen winning after being a part of the 1990 national champi­ onship Colorado team. A winning coach and renewed player attitude are two keys to bringing champi­ onship football Itack to Stillwater. Stros: Reynolds 3rd pitcher to reach 15 wins Continued from page 7 Mike Oyer in the eighth made it 6- 3. Later in the inning, Dyer hit Ricky Gutierrez with a pitch with the bases loaded to force in Hous­ ton's seventh run. The loss snapped the Expos' three-game w inning streak and kept M ontreal from m oving 15 games over .500 (66-53) for the first time since M ay 13. Corm ier lasted 3 2-3 innings — his shortest outing in 25 starts this season — allowing four runs and seven hits. Notes: The Astros expect to have Derek Bell back in the lineup Fri­ day in Chicago. Bell, who leads Houston with 94 RBIs, has missed the last five games with tonsillitis. NL announces brawl punishments Associated Press M O N T R EA L — The National League suspended and fined five players W ednesday for their involvem ent in Monday night's heated bench-clearing braw l between the Montreal Expos and Houston Astros. Houston pitcher Danny Dar­ win, who hit H enry Rodriguez with a pitch to set off the ugly third-inning scuffle, was sus­ pended for six games and received an undisclosed fine. Houston's John Cangelosi and H enry Rodriguez, Jeff Juden and Moisés Alou of the Expos were also fined and received four- game suspensions. The players' union said it w ould wait until Thursday before deciding on whether to appeal the suspensions, w hich would take affect Friday. The Expos' D avid Segui, on the list w ith a broken disabled thumb, was fined an undisclosed amount for joining the altercation but was not suspended. Dallas Continued from page 7 Zach Continued from page 7 "It's as easy for him to make the move as it would be for anyone in the league," Houck said. Allen said tackle is a little harder to play than guard because there is more ground to cover. "O nce I get m y footwork down, I'll be all right," Allen said. ■ Receiver Orande Gadsden, who had just moved ahead of rook­ ie Stepfret W illiam s into the No. 3 receiver Kevin W illiam s and Deion Sanders, w ill be out six to eight weeks. behind slot Gadsden fractured his right eye socket in the Cowboys' 31-7 presea­ son loss to New England. He leads the team in preseason reception yards with 114 and had catches of 40 yards or more in each of the team's first two preseason games. He also had played well on special teams. " I don't have the greatest speed or the greatest strength in the world, but I'm going to make the plays," said Thomas. Last season he was named the Southwest Conference's defensive player of the year and was a finalist for the Butkus A w ard as the nation's top linebacker. Yet, once the N FL draft rolled around, the size question resurfaced. Johnson decided to go with the numbers: 131 tackles, 84 solo and three sacks during Thomas' senior year. "H e took a chance on me being a fifth-round p ick," Thomas said. "Because of my size, nobody was picking me." in the Dolphins' first exhibition game. Johnson immediately released 11-year pro linebacker Jack Del Rio and named Thomas to the first string. "The bottom line is that Zach Thomas was making plays,” said Johnson. "H e has quickness, heL an instinctive player, and he makes plays. Jack Del Rio would still be here and still be our starter were it not for the play of Zach Thomas." Miam i is hoping for some consis­ tency at the middle linebacker posi­ tion. Since training camp in 1^94, D w ight H ollier, John Offerdahl, Chuck Bullough and Bryan Cox have been at the position. Thomas said he never expected to become a starter so soon. Thomas made his new coach a believer in a hurry, leading the team with eight tackles against Tampa Bay "It's great to be in this position,” Thomas said. "N o w I nave to hold m y job."

ASH With: Cotton Mather, Muzzle At: Electric Lounge Ddte: Tuesday, Aug. 13__________ SOUND BITES Guzzard slams into town JO E S E B A S TIA N Daily Texan Staff live music H yper-infectious rock is h ard to come by. Sure, people can throw all the hooks and choruses in the w o rld into a song, and peo p le w ill hav e the d am n thing floating in and out of their forebrains all day long, b u t to m ake m usic th at sticks in the craw an d still rocks hard is a lot harder. G uzzard can do this really well. Songs like Thermal Personal War jam their catchy lyrics ("N othing really m atters now that I've declared w ar") into the skull, along w ith angu lar guitar lines and a great rhythm . T hat song, an d o th e rs like it on G u z z a rd 's new album The Alienation Index Survey show a band that has exploded o ut of the confines of the sim ple punk rock they started w ith and ad d e d som e new elem ents to create som e great rock music. In ad d itio n to retaining the po p hooks of previous album s, The Alienation Index Survey im proves on the b a n d 's sense of dynam ics and guitar playing. "The new album is different," says d ru m m er Pete Beeman. "But 1 w o u ld n 't know how to describe how. O u r first record w as pretty solid, and then the second w as a little different. The third, I guess, is m ore so. "W hen y o u 're to u rin g all the tim e, playing every night, you just get tired of playing the sam e stuff. So you try to keep it fresh, change it up a little. T o rn [vocals and g uitar] an d I are b ro thers. We h ad sta rte d p lay in g to g e th er a b o u t four y ears ago, and w e h eard th at there w as this g uy nam ed D ave [Paul] w ho w as interested in being in a band. So w e got together. I d alw ays played drum s, since I w as like six years old. And m y brother played guitar, and he w as in a band, but w hen w e got together, w e d id n 't have any ideas a b o u t w h a t w e sh o u ld so u n d like. W e d id n 't really talk a b o u t it. W e just w o rk ed together. A nd w hen D ave joined the band, w e still d id n 't have any ideas, w e just played." This lack of p reconceived ideas ab o u t h o w G u z­ zard should so und has allow ed the band to rem ake itself w ith each album . From a start as a band w ith d e fin ite le a n in g s to w a rd th e S o u th e rn C a lifo rn ia p u n k p e rsu a sio n G u zz ard h as m u tated in to a new incarnation.

W ith this im proved precision, it could alm ost be said that the band has m oved in to m ath -ro ck territo ry , b u t no m a th -ro ck band ever w rote real songs as well as G uzzard. "For me, it's all about having a good show — p lay­ ing well, m eeting good people," says Beem an. "W e m eet som e great people, it seem s to h a p p e n to us a lot. Like last [M onday] w e had an off n ig h t because o u r show in D enton got canceled, b u t w e w ere able to get a show w ith Diesel Boy and Strung O u t from C al­ ifornia. W e m et som e great guys, and m ade 50 bucks. "The bass player from Strung O ut insisted on b u y ­ ing us pizza, and he gave us $20. We tried to slip it back into his guitarcase, b u t he insisted w e take it. "Us guys w ere talking the other day, and w e d ecid­ ed that w e really liked the people in Texas," says Bee­ m an, w h o se voice b e tra y s his M in n ea p o lis h o m e ­ tow n. "The people are all really nice like that." G u z z a rd h a d som e p la n s to h a n g o u t w ith th e ir friends in The U nsane w hen the the band opened for Slayer Tuesday night. Beem an, specifically, had an idea. "I'm going to w ear K erry K ing's nails. You know that big nail w ristband thing he w ears? I'm gonna get him to let m e w ear it. We do really well w ith those big metal stars, ya know. W e w ere eft a Pantera show and w e got Philip A nselm o ru n n in g a ro u n d for us. He w as o u r boy — he w as getting us beers and every­ thing. I think he w as just really sick of hanging o u t w ith m etal people all the time, he w as really excited to talk to real people."

T h o u g h th is m ig h t be a g o o d m ove as far as the b an d 's publicists are co n cern ed , it really m akes no sense to th e b a n d 's fans. S la y e r's fa n s m ig h t h a v e b e e n w illin g to overlook the b a n d 's foray into "th at w eak pu n k rock shit" on their last album , Undisputed Attitude, but lim ­ iting the nu m b er of tickets available and thus d riving aw ay a lot of the fans w asn 't the greatest idea. As it hap p en ed , the audience w as evenly d iv id e d b e tw e en lo n g tim e fans, d e c k e d o u t in th e ir fre sh ly purchased tour T-shirts, w ho d id n 't give a d a m n w h a t the b and m ight do, an d o n e -tim e fans in M arilyn M anson sh irts w h o cam e an y w ay to see if th eir scorned idols m ig h t th e th e m s e lv e s re d e e m ignom iny of their sell-out record. fro m Both sides probably got a little of w h a t th ey w a n te d , an d a lot th a t th e y d i d n 't.

T he n o rm a l d is to r t io n w a s s tr ip p e d aw ay in favor of Slayer's squeaky- ciean sound, so the guitar sounded like Slayer's guitar, the bass so u n d ­ ed lik e S la y e r 's b a ss, th e v o c a ls sounded like Slayer's vocals, and so on. After the U nsane gleefully o v er­ stayed their welcom e, it was a short s e t-c h a n g e (by m e ta l s ta n d a r d s ) before Slayer stalked onto the stage. Slayer then launched into South of Heaven, finally giving the crow d the chance to h e a r w h a t they w a n te d to.
