Hundreds of nervous law stu­
dents bit their nails and ground 
their teeth in the lobby of the UT 
School of Law Tuesday, but it 
w asn't the Bar exam they w ere 
worried about.

Mixed cries of joy, anger and 
surprise could be heard as three 
te le v is io n se ts sh o w ed O .J. 
Simpson cracking his first smile 
in n in e m o n th s, as th e Los 
Angeles jury acquitted him of all 
charges in the murder of Nicole 
B ro w n S im p so n and R on ald 
Goldman.

"M o st of the people around 
h ere p ro b a b ly sk ip p e d c la ss 
because this case is such a big 
d eal," said third-year law stu ­
dent Allyson Carr, who said she 
skipped class herself. "This is a 
major case and contains a lot of 
issues we study in law' school."

Several law professors joined 
the stu d en ts, eith e r ca n celin g 
class Tu esday or sen d in g stu ­
dents out into the lobby for trial 
updates. But professors warned 
a g a in st v iew in g the S im p so n 
case as typical of the American 
justice system.

The case "m ade a circus out of 
the criminal justice system," said 
W illiam K e lly , a p ro fe sso r of 
sociology. "It turned into a rat­

O ne w ay 

the 
Sim pson case is atypical is the

observers said.

"W ith th e rig h t a m o u n t o f

Shaun Ramey, president of Beta 
Alpha Rho, a pre-law fraternity. 
"T h at kind of ruins my w hole 
concept of justice."

A poorer defendant would not 
have .been able to hire as many 
law yers and investigators, said 
Susan Klein, assistant professor 
of law.

"There's no question his mon­

Florists, caterers and m usicians

The gaitv stood in m arked co n ­

At a defense team news co n fer­

But fellow defense attorney Robert 
Shapiro disagreed, saying he w as 
"deeply offended" that Cochran had 
compared the police detective who 
found the b loo d y glove to A dolf 
Hitler. He said would never work 
with Cochran again and would never 
talk to attorney F. Lee Bailey.

Housing may 
expand to east

AMY STRAHAN_______________________________
Daily Texan Staff

In a meeting with school administrators and community 
leaders Tuesday, UT officials took steps toward building a 
married student housing complex in East Austin, officials 
said.

The U niversity has m ade a "com m itm ent based upon 
requirem ents" to build housing in East Austin, said James 
Hill, UT associate vice president for adm inistration and 
public affairs.

Under the proposal, the University will build housing on 
East A ustin's 11th and 12th Streets if both neighborhood 
residents and city officials want the housing to be there, 
and if the city donates the land for the housing. UT officials 
also must decide how much housing to build, Hill added.

S o m e E a st A u stin re sid e n ts and city o ffic ia ls h ave 
thrown their support behind the new housing, but the city 
has not yet given any land to the University, Hill said.

1 million men

Austinites ready to march on Washington
OSCAR CISNEROS

While some black leaders are try­
ing to get more than one million black 
men to march on Washington D.C. 
on Oct. 16, no one is sure how many 
UT students will participate in the 
event, one way or another.

The n a tio n a l o rg an izers of the 
march, Nation of-Lslam leader Louis 
Farrakhan and Ben Chavis, former 
head of the NAACP, have advocated 
that African-Americans who do not 
participate in the march itself abstain 
from work or school on Oct. 16 in 
observance of the event.

"The purpose of the march is to get 
black men to unite as a brotherhood, 
so that we may com e back to our 
comm unities and cleanse our com ­
munities of drug abase, gangs, gang 
rapes, etc. etc.," said Cedric X, The

Clinton vetoes congressional budget

Associated Press

in 

W A SH IN G T O N — H ittin g 
C o n g ress 
its p o ck etb o o k , 
President Clinton vetoed the legisla­
tive branch budget Tuesday and told 
lawmakers he wouldn't budge until 
they make concessions on a larger 
spending feud.

Issuing the third veto of his presi­
dency, C linton rejected a m easure 
that would let Congress spend $2.2 
billion this fiscal year — a $200 mil­
lion reduction from last year's bud­
get. The m ove opened C linton to 
attack from Republicans.

"President Clinton has put politics 
ahead of cutting government spend­
in g ,” Senate M ajority Leader Bob 
D ole and H ou se S p eak er N ew t 
Gingrich said in a joint statement.

The W h ite H ou se said C lin to n 
supported the bill and its cuts, but 
vetoed it as a sign of his frustration 
over the slow progress of budget 
deliberations. Though the fiscal year

began Sunday, only two of 13 spend­
ing bills have passed Congress.

"I d o n 't think C ongress should 
take care of its own business before it 
takes care of the people's business,” 
Clinton said in his veto message.

In another move aimed at putting 
R ep u b lican s on 
th e d e fe n siv e , 
Clinton approved a bill providing 
money for military construction pro­
jects, including family housing. The 
approval came despite the measure's 
inclusion of $70 million in projects 
Clinton said amounted to wasteful 
GOP spending and pointed up the 
need for a line-item veto.

Both actions carried political risks 
for C linton. In the latest round of 
p o litical g am esm an sh ip over the 
th e p re sid e n t actu a lly 
b u d g et, 
approved one bill he said wasted tax­
payers’ money and vetoed another 
that would cut government spe nding 
— a bill he said he liked.

C lin to n 's actio n and th e G O P

response were the latest tit-for-tat in 
a war between the White House and 
Republicans over spending priorities, 
especially on M edicare, M edicaid, 
education and the environment.

The president has threatened to 

veto eight of the 13 spending bills.

House Appropriations Committee 
C h airm an B ob L iv in g sto n said 
Clinton had "n o substantive grounds 
for a veto” of the congressional bud­
get.

"T he president can't have it both 
w ays,” said Livingston, R-La. "H e 
can't lecture the Congress on political 
reform w hile vetoing the first real 
e ffo rt in 40 y ea rs to reform the 
Congress."

White House aides said the veto 
carried out a thseat C linton m ade 
w eeks ago, h o p in g that it w ould 
make Congress look like the selfish 
th e b u d g et d eb ate.

Continued from page 1

Approving the militan- bill gave the 
president a chance to push again for 
the line-item veto.

Clinton said the $70 million in mil­
itan- projects approved by Congress
— but not requested by the Pentagon
— illustrates why: "T h e taxpayers' 
deserve protection from this kind of 
wasteful spending."

a . u 

. . ~

^

Republicans made passage of the 
lin e-item veto a key part o f their 
campaign "Contract With America" 
last y ear. W h ile the H o u se and 
Sen ate have passed d ifferent v er­
sions, negotiators have not yet devel­
oped a co m p ro m ise m e a su re . 
D e m o cra ts 
the 
co n ten d 
R e p u b lica n s d o n 't w an t to g ive 
Clinton that power.

th at 

White House press secretary Mike 
M cCurry said Clinton did not veto 
the military construction bill because 
the $70 million was just a small por­
tion of an otherwise beneficial mea­
sure.

Vetoing it would have been trou­
b le so m e for a p re sid e n t w o rried 
about a shaky relationship with the 
military.

Congress' budget and the military 
bill artiount to a tiny fraction of the 
overall government budget which is 
tied up in the 11 sp e n d in g b ills 
Congress was still debating.

The White House was intentional­
ly vague about w hat R ep u blicans

must do to get approval of their bud­
get bill, which Clinton said he would 
sign " u n d e r d iffe re n t circ u m ­
stances."

"T h e people of this country need 
to know that C ongress is w orking 
w ith the p resid en t to resolve the
overall questions that will lead to an 
accep tab le b u d g et for fiscal year 
1996," McCurry said.

The congressional spending bill 
does not include lawmakers' salaries; 
their paychecks are tied up in anoth­
er bill. But staff salaries and the cost 
of doing business on Capitol Hill are 
covered by the vetoed measure.

None of the funding was in imme­
d ia te p e ril, b e c a u se C o n g ress 
approved a C linton-backed bill to 
pay the governm ent's expenses for 
six w eeks while the budget debate 
drags on.

The bill that includes spending for 
White House operations is still pend­
ing in C o n g ress. M cC u rry said 
Clinton would have vetoed it, too, if 
Congress had sent it to the president 
before acting on other spending leg­
islation.

C lin to n 's p re v io u s tw o v eto es 
came on a bill to lift the arms embar­
go in Bosnia and a measure reducing 
sp e n d in g for the fisc a l y ear that 
ended Oct. 1.

affairs, said the march does not fit the
University's description of a holy day.
"I have difficulty considering this to 
be a holy day," Vick said, adding that 
he cannot understand why the orga­
nizers would ask students to miss 
school rather than further their educa­
tion.

But he added, "A n absence from 
class is something that needs to be 
w orked out betw een the professor 
and the student."

Women are not invited because as a 
group they have stood up for them­
selves and it is time for black males to 
do so, Cedric X added.

Black males also need to repent to 
God and properly serve in their roles 
as protectors, fathers and husbands, 
he said, adding that they have not 
done so in the past.

But not all African-Americans at the 
U niversity agreed with C edric X 's 
assessment of the black community.

"T h a t's not true — black s have 
been doing that for generations," said 
John Butler, UT professor of manage­
ment and sociology. "It's an insult to 
say that."

"Black America is more than the 
inner-city ghetto. Black America is 105 
black colleges founded in the U.S.," he 
added.

Still, B utler said the m arch w ill 
draw attention to black issues, and 
said a similar event should be put on

C edric X said about 1,000 black 
men from Austin will take part in the 
march. Two jetliners have been char­
tered, though most people will travel 
either in church car pools or by per­
sonal means, he said.

While there is no itinerary set for 
Oct. 16, Cedric X said there will likely 
be no march, as it would be danger­
ous to move one million or more men 
from one point to another. Instead, the 
participants will congregate outside 
the White House and not the Lincoln 
Memorial.

"The reason for that is that we want 
to make a statement to a living presi­
dent, not a dead president," Cedric X 
said. President Clinton, however, is 
scheduled to speak at the University 
that day.

M arlen W hitley, d irecto r of the

Whitley said that no such plans have

would involve a joint U T /H u sto n -

Gulf Coast prepares for Opal

Residents unwilling to take chances with ninth hurricane of season

A r r / A o / V i f / N / 4 D r A A r . 
Associated Press

PE N SA C O LA , Fla. — H u rrican e O pal 
raced towards the northeast Gulf Coast late 
Tuesday, threatening areas still recovering 
from Hurricane Erin with deadly 115 mph 
winds and heavy rain.

The sto rm 's n o rth east pace qu icken ed 
from 11 to 21 mph within hours, meaning 
landfall could occur Wednesday afternoon, 
rather than midnight. Panama City was the 
most likely target for Opal's eye, forecasters 
said.

"By far this is the biggest storm this year 
for Florida," Joe Myers, state director of the 
D ivision of Em ergency M anagement, said 
late Tuesd ay. " I t 's the biggest storm for 
Florida since Hurricane Andrew."

Residents already weary of the busy hur­
ric a n e se a so n e m b a rk e d on w h a t has 
become the routine practice of boarding up 
their homes.

Erin tore off most of the roof from Lisa 
R o s e n 's b e a c h fr o n t h o u se on a b a rrie r 
island. Plastic sheeting flapped thunderous­
ly in the w ind, and the roof leaked as a 
squall hit Tuesday.

"T h e h ou se is livable but it leaks like 
m ad," said Rosen, who planned to flee to 
Atlanta. "It can't take another beating, and I 
sure don't want to be around to witness it."

Neighbors in Pensacola Beach and other 
coastal towns shared Rosen's fears — and 
home repair problems — as they prepared 
to evacuate as Opal approached.

At least 10 people died and 20 were miss­
ing in M exico after Opal passed over the 
Y ucatan peninsula, causing flooding that

Late Tuesday night, Opal was about 265 
miles south of the mouth of the Mississippi 
River. O fficials in the Florida Panhandle 
w orried that O p al's rapid streng thenin g

would catch people off guard.

"T h is is not a Jerry. It's not an Erin. It's 
g e ttin g to be a d a n g e ro u s s to r m ," said 
M vers, referring to ’Tropical Storm Jerry, 
which doused Florida's southeast, central 
and southwest coasts in August.

County officials in the Florida Panhandle 
ordered low-lying areas evacuated Tuesday 
night. State offices were closed in coastal 
areas, and Escambia County schools were 
closed Wednesday.

H u rricane w arnings w ere issued from 
Mobile, Ala. east to Anclote Key on the west 
coast of Florida. Tropical storm w arnings 
stretched south to Venice. Hurricane w atch­
es and a tropical storm warning extended 
west of Mobile to Grand Isle, La.

Opal has already caused coastal flooding 
in southern Texas. Workers were evacuated 
from offshore drilling rigs near A labam a's 
D auphin Island and elsew here along the 
coast as gusty thunderstorms moved in.

Macedonian 
president 
injured in 
car bombing

Associated Press

SKOPJE, M acedonia — The man who led M acedonia to 
independence was seriously wounded Tuesday in another act 
of violence in the Balkans — a car bom b ripped apart his 
armored Mercedes, killing his driver and shattering windows 
as high as the ninth floor.

President K iro G ligorov lost his right eye in the blast, 
according to Saso Ordanoski, director of Macedonian TV. In 
hours of neurosurgery, doctors removed shrapnel from the 78- 
year-old president's head.

Surgeons from France and Yugoslavia assisted, and U.S. 
doctors, including the U.S. N avy's onlv neurosurgeon in 
Europe, were en route.

The bombing raised concerns about further violence in the 
volatile country. About 540 U.S. soldiers are part of a U.N. 
peacekeeping force in Macedonia.

Two suspects in their mid-20s were arrested in the bomb­
ing, authorities said, but their identities were not released. No 
one immediately claimed responsibility for the blast, which 
also wounded Gligorov's security officer and five pedestrians, 
one critically.

"For now, Gligorov's life is not in danger," a police state­
ment said. But doctors noted that any head injury was serious 
for a man of Gligorov's age.

The 45 pounds of explosives, packed into the trunk of an 
old Citroen, blew up as Gligorov's car passed by. The blast 
ripped open the car's right front door, and the right rear door 
where Gligorov sat was penetrated by metal shards.

The bomb was detonated by remote control about 100 yards 
from Gligorov's offices in Skopje, the Macedonian capital. The 
president's route to his office is well known, and the car often 
slows at the point where the bomb exploded because of heavy 
traffic. A small car in front of the presidential limousine was 
reported to have deliberately slowed down before the blast.

Tuesday's assassination attem pt came as M acedonia, an 
impoverished state of 2 million, seemed headed toward more 
stability and better relations with its neighbors.

G reece agreed last m onth to end a crippling econom ic 
blockade. On Monday, Gligorov, in Belgrade on h i s first offi­
cial visit, said Macedonia and neighboring rump Yugoslavia 
could recognize each other as early as November.

Although Macedonia seceded peacefully in 1991 as the old 
Yugoslav federation broke up, independence aggravated 
volatility in the republic, which has a large ethnic Albanian 
minority. The country historically has had uneasy relations 
with neighboring Serbia, Bulgaria, Greece, and Albania.

Local media speculated the bomb might be the work of 
M acedonian nationalists who would oppose com prom ises 
with the republic's neighbors.

In Washington, U.S. State Department spokesman Nicholas 
Bums said the U.S. administration "very much condemns this 
cowardly terrorist act."

G ligo ro v , a lead in g co m m u n ist o fficia l in the form er 

Yugoslavia, was elected Macedonia's president in 1992.

During a one-day trip to Belgrade Monday, he held talks 
with President Slobodan M ilosevic of Serbia about mutual 
recognition. Serbia has not recognized Macedonia because of 
border disputes and out of solidarity with Greece w hich 
claims Macedonia has territorial designs on its province bear­
ing the same name.

Fort Hays State University senior Ryan Swayze, left, 
attempted to lasso the foot of freshman Levi Getz, fore­
ground, as the pair played a game of roping football at 
the FHSU Rodeo Arena in Hays, Kan., Monday. The

game involves players attempting to rope each other’s 
feet in three seconds while both players walk. They 
were at the arena practicing for the first rodeo of the 
season with other members of the FHSU rodeo team.

Pope John Paul II enjoys 
favorable American polls

Associated Press

NEW YO RK — Placido D om ingo, 
N atalie C ole and Roberta Flack will 
warm up his audiences.

Free tickets to his outdoor events are 
being scalped at prices that might be 
whispered in Shubert Alley for sold- 
out Broadway musicals — upwards of 
$100.

A healthier Pope John Paul II returns 
to the United States Wednesday with 
popularity ratings any politician would 
covet. A New York T im es-CBS News 
poll released over the weekend found 
92 percent of U.S. Catholic adults view 
him favorably and only 4 percent unfa­
vorably.

During his five-day visit, the pope 
w ill con fer w ith P resid en t C lin to n , 
address the United N ations G eneral 
Assembly and preach to huge crowds 
at the outdoor Masses in Giants Stadi­
um in the New Jersey Meadowlands, at 
A q u ed u ct race track , on the G reat 
Lawn in New York's Central Park and 
at Oriole Park in Baltimore.

Even if the pope faces little visible 
opposition, polls show many American 
C ath olics reject his view s on sexual 
morality and other issues.

Critics inside the church object to the 
pope's vehem ent opposition to birth 
control and want him to at least consid­
er allow ing m arried priests and the 
ordination of women. The number of 
U.S. priests is falling even as the num­
ber of Catholics rises.

The pope began 1995 as Time maga­
zine's Man of the Year, his 12th appear­
ance on Time's cover. His book, Cross-

mg the Threshold o f Hope, was a best-sell­
er in 20 countries.

The English translation of the new 
Catechism o f the Catholic Church, a major 
project of his papacy, has sold an aston­
ishing 2.3 million copies in hardback.

At the outset of his 18th year on the 
throne of Peter, C atholic population 
worldwide has passed the billion mark.
John Paul II has made a remarkable 
comeback from the effects of a partial 
thigh bone replacem ent after a bath­
room fall that caused the cancellation 
of a planned U.S. visit a year ago. Jour­
neying to his fifth continent since then, 
the 75-year-old p o n tiff has throw n 
away his cane and walks with less of 
the pronounced stoop observed during 
his recovery.

O ccasion ally how ever, esp ecially 
when he is climbing steps, the ruddy 
face is caught by the TV cameras gri­
macing in pain. To assist him during 
the recent A frican trip, elevators or 
hydraulic lifts were installed at several 
altar sites.

In addressing the United Nations on 
Thursday, John Paul II will have a far 
greater presence than when he faced 
the w orld body at the outset of his 
papacy in 1979.

Such diverse figures as Czech Presi­
dent Vaclav H avel, Ronald Reagan, 
Zbigniew Brzezinski, who was Jimmy 
Carter's national security adviser, and 
the Rev. Vincent O 'K eefe, wrhom he 
removed as acting Superior General of 
the Jesuits, look upon this Pope as a 
moral battering ram in bringing down 
the Berlin Wall and European Commu­
nism.

grims and faithful as he arrived in

In the words of Mikhail Gorbachev,

without the important role, including 
the po litical role, he played on the

Leftists’ protests and violence mar observance o f long-divided nation 's reunification

its fifth birthday by toasting its ach ieve­

Speeches at Unity Day observances and a 
television address by Chancellor Helmut 
Kohl m ade it clear: W est G erm any and 
com m unist East G erm any drifted so far 
apart during four decades of forced separa­
tion that they w on't be truly united for 
years to come.

"It is true that not all wishes have been 
fulfilled in the past five years," said Kohl, 
who as the West German chancellor steered 
the two Germanys to unification on Oct. 3 
1990.

ment s main Unity Day celebration in the 
central G erm an city o f D uesseldorf, and 
they were right.

Before daw n, leftist m ilitants torched a 
car, hurled stones at police and smashed the 
windows of a Duesseldorf bank and depart­
ment store. Police arrested six youths and 
confiscated various weapons.

About 3,000 p rotesters, many of them 
masked, marched through the city flanked 
by riot police. They carried banners reading 
"Five Years of Unity — There's Nothing To 
Celebrate."

Unity Day celebrations are hosted every 
Oct. 3 by whichever of Germany's 16 states 
holds the presidency in the upper house of 
parliament. North Rhine-Westphalia, where 
Duesseldorf is capital, has that role this 
year.

S e c u rity o ff ic ia ls had feared le ftis t

Inside a Duesseldorf concert hall, Kohl, 
President Roman Herzog and other guests

heard sp e ech e s and m u sic, in clu d in g a

singer Barbara Hendricks.

Surrounding the concert hall were some 
o f the 3 ,000 p o lice o ffic e rs d ep lo yed in 
Duesseldorf for Unity Day.

Johannes Rau, North Rhine-W estphalia 
state governor, said that since reunification, 
"th e inner divisions have disappeared, but 
re se rv a tio n s and p re ju d ices h av e m ade 
some invisible gaps wider and deeper than 
before.”

"M uch remains to be done, above all in 

the heads and hearts of Germans," he said.

com m unities in the form erly com m unist 
region are starting to look like the bustling 
cities and towns of the west.

Nevertheless, many westerners are bitter

that costs have gone up to pay for unit\ and 
m any eastern ers see th eir lives as being 
dominated by the more affluent west.

U n e m p lo y m e n t in e a s te r n G erm a n y 
remains at a stubborn 14 percent, and the 
region relies on federal governm ent infu­
sion s of m ore than $100 billion annually 
because it can't vet support i t s e l t w ith its 
own production.

Manfred Stolpe, governor of eastern Ger­
many's Brandenburg state said he gets the 
impression that westerners frequently over­
look the abilities and knowledge of eastern­
ers just because their lives were once dictat­
ed by communists.

But, he said in a speech in Potsdam, "w e

scape and culture, we also bring w ith us 
hard-working people and experiences that 
are important for the future."

France, the former colonial ruler of the

It had already put its 4,000 troops on the 
nearby French-ruled islands of Mayotte

Coup leaders had hoped to turn over

collapsed Tuesday.

having it all played out in public.

Tipper Gore said Tuesday their 16- 
year-old daughter, given a ticket last 
weekend, is wrestling with the public 
attention as well as "th e severe disap­
pointm ent of her fam ily and friends 
and herself."

Sarah Gore was cited Friday in sub­
urban Montgomery County, Md., after 
a police officer saw her holding an open 
beer w hile sitting in a car outsid e a 
party. The d river of the car was not 
drinking.

C ivil citations also w ere issued to 
several other juveniles, police say. The 
maximum penalty for underage posses­

The family is dealing with Sarah's sit­

their teen-agers about the availability of 
alcohol and the fact the temptations are 
out there."

Unpaid prostitute cuts 
off part of client’s organ

■ NEW YORK — An enraged prosti­
tute cut off part of a client's penis after 
he refused to pay her for her services, 
police said.

The woman fled after the Monday 
afternoon attack on Domingo Morales,
67, who summoned her to his apart­
ment in the Bronx, said Officer Valerie 
St. Rose, a police spokeswoman.

Tuesday, police were still searching 
for the severed organ and the woman. 
Morales, a retired trucker, was in stable 
condition after undergoing surgery.

The trouble began after the two had 
sex and he didn't want to pay. "She 
took out a knife and cut off a part of his 
penis," St. Rose said,

It's fine that environm ental activists d isagree w ith U T C hancellor 

W illiam C u n n in g h am 's choice to jo in Freep ort M acM oR an 's board 
of directors. They have a First A m end m ent right to d enounce him .
B ut w hen their political protests extend to h arassin g the chancellor 
at hom e during a private party, they have crossed a line, not of law, 
but o f courtesy.

A lthough the activists could legally protest ou tsid e the ch an cellor's 
hom e, their actions blur the im portant distinction betw een public and 
private life. N o U T ad m inistrator should have to live in the political 
arena 24 hours a day, and C u nningham d eserves a chance to put poli­
tics behind him for a few hours in the evening.

The environm ental activists have am ple op p ortu nity to attack C u n­

they also chase the m an hom e?

Whether the verdict rendered by the O .J. ju ry on Tuesd ay w as 

correct or not, those w ho ju d g e him guilty can still find som e 
satisfaction in that som e facts, fortunately, are indisputable.

O .J.'s life w ill never be the sam e. R egardless of his m em oirs or the 
m oney that they w ill yield him , the man that endeared him self to 
A m erica w ill never be able to escap e the p u blic's perception of his 
guilt.

H is football accom p lishm ents w ill forever take a back seat to the 
score of incrim inating w itnesses and the pile o f evidence linking him 
to those heinous m urders. O .J. m ust now deal w ith the harshest ju ry of

think again.

Y es, m oney m ight have b ou ght him innocence, but no sum can 
repair h is ta m ish e d *re p u ta tio n or m ake him as venerable to A m erica

Buster Keaton
Wednesd ay m arks the centenary of the birth o f Buster K eaton. 

Best know n as an auteu r of the silent era, K eaton is the trag i­
com ic figure o f A m erican film.

W earing a dead pan face and a porkpie hat, K eaton portrayed the 
com m on m an confronting a w orld of problem s w ith pluck, stoicism 
and im placable grace. U nperturbed by the likes of cascad ing boulders, 
roaring rapids or falling houses, K eaton survived 34 silent shorts and 
13 featu res inclu d ing his m asterpiece, The G eneral.

M ad e on the cusp of the sound era, The G eneral displays K eaton 's 
m astery of the m edium . He w rote, directed and starred in the feature 
that m any consid er the greatest silent com edy ever m ade.

D espite his ability, how ever, K eaton failed to m ake the transition 
from sileints to talkies. Because his hu m or d epended on situations, not 
w ords, and the stud io system treated artists as ju st the m edia o f com ­
m ercial m ovie-m aking, the com ing of sound dim m ed his stardom .

Sad ly, the m an w ho ou tm aneu vered a m alevolen t universe in his 
ow n film s succum bed to the control of studio execs, and in the 40 years 
of life rem aining to him after he m ade The G eneral, he only found parts 
that parodied him self or his era.

Fortunately, his tim e and w ork are not entirely forgotten. The 
D ep artm ent of Radio, Television and Film featu res his w ork in its 
introd u ctory film class, and today A m erican M ovie C lassics w ill air 
m any of his film s.

T hough from an earlier tim e, they ad dress peculiarly m odern prob­
lem s, and though silent, they still speak to the hum an predicam ent 
w here the only im p erative is survival.

Gen. Powell still shines for America
Has anyone not been lured by an ad vertise­

Marc Levin
TEXAN COLUMNIST

m ent prom ising the w orld only to read 
the fine print and find ou t that you have 
to buy the un iverse first? W hether it's a m islead ­
ing ad or a national hero such as O .J. Sim pson, 
everything seem s to lose its luster upon closer 
exam ination.

A s such, it is nothing less than rem arkable that 
the m ore C olin P ow ell's surface is scratched , the 
m ore he shines.

T h o u g h p u n d its p red icted P o w e ll's im ag e 
w ould be tarnished once he announced his view s 
on controversial subjects, his popularity contin­
ues to rise. In the latest CN N poll cond u cted in 
N ew H am p shire, a key prim ary state, Pow ell fin­
ished ahead of both D ole and C linton. W hy has 
P ow ell's supp ort grow n rather than shru nk since 
he has gone p u blic w ith his positions?

First, his m oderate view s are in tune w ith the 
politics of m ost A m ericans. O n econ om ic issues, 
he favors b alancing the bud get but end orses low ­
ering taxes only w h ere it is possible and respon ­
sible. But on issues such as abortion, gun control, 
im m igration and school prayer, Pow ell d istin ­
guishes h im self from conservatives w h o w ant to 
ban abortion, brand ish w eapons, blam e im m i­
grants and brainw ash students. Since polls show 
that A m ericans are increasingly fiscally conserv a­
tive but w orried about social radicalism , Pow ell's 
continued popularity can be partially attributed

to the correspond ence o f his view s w ith those of 
m ainstream A m erica.

Y et this does not explain w hy those on the 
polar end s o f our political spectrum have not 
abandoned Pow ell. A fter h earing P ow ell's fiscal­
ly conserv ativ e ideology, how can liberals like 
U.S. Rep. K w eisi M fum e, D -M d., still have kind 
w ords for him ? Likew ise, how can those on the 
religious right like C hristian C oalition C hairm an 
Ralph Reed still praise Pow ell after hearing his 
liberal social view s?

O ne obviou s reason is that people are reluctant 
to criticize Pow ell in light o f his distinguished 
record. A n other explanation is the subtle and 
thoughtful m ann er in w hich P ow ell has stated his 
positions on these issues. W hile opposing school 
prayer, he has acknow led ged the im portance of 
relig io n . W h ile sayin g he 
is p ro -ch o ice, h e 
expresses h is personal preference for life. Even 
though m ost A m ericans p ro bab ly d isagree w ith 
Pow ell on one issue or another, this kind of tem ­
pered rhetoric sm ooths ov er these differences.

The final factor that exp lain s P ow ell's con tin ­
ued popularity is the p u blic's d esire for presid en­
tial lead ership. As the presid ent enjoys su p rem a­

cy in foreign affairs w hile the C o n g ress prim arily 
controls dom estic m atters, the end o f the Cold 
W ar has w eakened the p resid en t's policy-m aking 
role. C onsequently, m ost A m ericans w ould sacri­
fice agreem ent on every policy issu e in ord er to 
have a m oral lead er w ho can use the presidency 
as a bully pu lpit to un ite the nation.

Since the end of the Cold W ar, neith er Bush nor 
C linton has b een able to assum e the m antle of 
m oral leadership. Bush, w hile a good and hon or­
able man, had little to say on dom estic issues and, 
as dem onstrated by his shock at seeing a m agnet­
ic scanner in a superm arket, w as too detached 
from the average person. C linton has been h am ­
pered by his w ishy -w ash y stances, shad y land 
deals and sexual escap ades.

In a society w h ere p risons are the fastest-g ro w ­
ing segm ent of the construction ind u stry, A m eri­
cans feel that w e have lost a sen se o f shared val­
ues. They know that law s alone are not enou gh to 
w eave to g eth er ou r fragm ented social fabric. 
Instead, the p u blic is looking for a p resid en t with 
lead ership and integrity w ho can establish a dia­
logue with those w h o are d isconnected from soci­
ety, w h eth er they be black or w hite.

As long as A m ericans see these fundam ental 
qualities in G eneral Pow ell, no am ount of scratch ­
ing by the m edia will w ear off his luster.

T h e rapid p ace o f

G O P stonew alling w ill not restore

Ethics reform , despite w h at Arm ey

Carpenter lectures benefit UT
The year of the 100th b irth d ay of the U niversity, 

Liz Carpenter
GUEST COLUMNIST

1983, w ord w ent forth that the U niversity needed 
end ow ed chairs, $1 m illion for quality faculty and 

lectu reships for bright students.

Friends decided som ething should be done in my 
nam e as an alum na of the U niversity as well as having 
been the first fem ale vice presid ent of the stud ent body.
They rented the P aram ou nt Theater, and w ith an 
A ustin-based cast plus Erm a Bom beck and M ark Rus­
sell, they put on a m ock funeral for me, called a C elestial 
E v en in g , to raise m o n ey. In one n ight, w e raised 
$100,000. N ot quite enou gh for a chair, but rather a foot­
stool.

So the Liz Sutherland C arp en ter D istingu ished V isit­
ing L ectureship in the H u m anities and Sciences w as 
born. The C ollege of L iberal A rts — under the lead er­
ship of Fran C h apm an and Barbara M yers — has been 
en th u siastic and m ade m y d ream a reality.

Life has been good to me. It has taken m e places 

w h ere people and events are exciting.

A t 22, I w ent to W ashington w ith m y U T jou rn alism 
d egree in hand and covered the conferences o f Roo­
sevelt — Franklin, not T edd y — and on to K ennedy and 
Johnson.

W hen I cam e back to Texas, m y rolodex w as filled 
w ith celebrities and their private phone num bers. Not 
hav ing a fortu ne of m y ow n, I used every single contact 
am ong m y friends (and a dash o f sheer gall) to sw eet- 
talk, cajole and ultim ately book speakers for an annual 
lectu reship that w ould m ake the U niversity proud.

And it has — from the beginning in 1985 with M adam 
Sadat, w ho during a snow storm packed the H ogg A ud i­
torium to talk about The Road to Peace. Each year, we 
w ould m ove to a bigger aud itorium . W e w ere on our 
way.

O ver the next six years, w e could bring in such 
d iv erse talents as President G erald Ford, C arol Chan- 
ning, N ora Ephron, Fannie Flagg, M ark Shield s, Jean 
Auel, Pat Paulsen, Jack V alenti, Jan e G oodall, G ov. Ann 
R ichard s, Linda Ellerbee, Betty Freidan, Sarah W ed- 
d ingtob and Liz Sm ith.

In 1991, for "C allin g All W om en ," the Texas Union 
D istinguished Sp eak ers C om m ittee joined the celebra­
tion, and w e'v e been ru nning together since then.

They spread the w ord, fliers and T-shirts on cam pus.

I get the guests.

W hen it cam e to our eighth speaker, w e knew the Bass 
Perform ing C enter — our hom e for three years — w as 
too sm all. The next option w as the Erw in C enter. As 
soon as the tow n heard that the next Liz C arpen ter L ec­
turer w ould be H illary R odham C linton, all 14,000 seats 
w ere taken.

I invited her to talk about "R em o ld in g O ur Society ." 
She spoke 45 m inutes w ithout looking at a note and ral­
lied us to red efine ou rselves and give new m eaning to 
politics. It is know n as her "p o litics of m eaning " speech, 
w hich I believe will be recorded in history as her best 
speech.

Since then, I have been pursuing P resid ent C linton by 
letter, fax and face-to-face to rally stud ents to public ser­
vice. He know s w hat being a student and teacher m eans. 
"K eep after m e," he said. And I have. I think m y W hite 
H ouse requ est file m ust be a foot thick.

W hen I read he w as com ing to T exas to be in D allas 
and H ou ston for fund-raisers, I got the nerve and the 
phone nu m ber to call him by cellular phone w hen he 
w as hiking on one of the G rand T etons in W yom ing. "I'll 
look into it," he said.

Like all of the Liz C arpen ter L ectureship s, this is no 
fund-raiser. It is free. It w ill be a d iscou rse by President 
C linton telling us w hat he has learned from the cam pus 
to the W hite H ouse.

All the past presid ents and vice presid ents I have 
know n w ere shaped by the D ep ression and W orld W ar 
II. C linton and Gore, shaped by un popu lar w ars and the 
environm ent, are in tune w ith the '9 0s and the 21st cen­
tury.

The presid ent will talk in a very personal way about 
his journ ey "F ro m the C am pus to the W hite H ou se." 
And hop efully, w e w ill lift som e o f the dark clouds and 
the m ed ia-battering that drives good people from public 
life.

Recycling benefits community

This high d egree of caution translates into a large

The trial b r o u g h t the is su e of 
racism in police departments to the 
forefront, said Shuronda Robinson 
Jones, managing editor of the Austin 
Sun, a newspaper that concentrates 
on black issues.

" F o r A f r i c a n - A m e r i c a n s as a 
group, the understanding of how 
racism in police departments affects 
us is more real" because of the trial, 
Jones said. "The jury hopefully con­

sidered the evidence more than they 
considered race. Certainly race is 
im p o rta n t, but it's not the m ost 
important thing."

Students and faculty alike agreed 
that the discovery of the Fuhrman 
tapes helped Simpson's case.

"What it really came down to was 
the credibility of the prosecution's 
witnesses, and one of their witness­
es was positively a racist," said Luis 
Reyes, a second-year law student.

"Also, more than half the jury mem­
bers were African-Americans who 
p r o b a b ly had bee n e x p o se d to 
racism before."

Students said they were glad to 
see lu esd ay 's end of the Simpson 
saga, which began with the deaths 
of N ic o le B ro w n S im p s o n and 
Ronald Goldman in June 1994.

" I 'l l be glad to get this off the 
TV," said Rob Kientz, a third-year 
law student. The verdict is "long

overdue; now people can start con­
centrating on other social issues."

O th e r s w ere d is tu r b e d by the 
amount of media coverage the trial 
received.

"How much TV coverage is given 
to the hundreds of other murder 
cases that go on in this country?" 
first-year law student Rick Killoúgh 
asked. He added that the trial "was 
taking up too much of our attention. 
It was a distraction for the country.'

Fans may get more floor 
seats at basketball games

JENNIFER SCHULTZ
Daily Texan Staff

Students may have a good shot at. 
getting better seats at home basketball 
games, Student Governm ent Presi­
dent Sherry Boyles said after a Tues­
day meeting Tuesday with UT men's 
athletic officials.

DeLoss Dodds, director of m en's 
athletics, said the University will sup­
ply a minimum of 44 floor seats for 
students at home games this season. 
Students may receive up to 120 seats 
at some games, Boyles said.

The new student seats will be at the 
north end of the Frank C. Erwin Jr. 
Special Events Center, "in front of the 
band and in front of the student [sec­
tion]," Dodds said.

D odds said the extra seats w ill 
make the area cramped, but it will be 
w orth it if the change brings more 
students to the games.

M en's basketball coach Tom Pen­
ders said these floor seats w ill be 
great ones for students.

"These are the $l,000-a-game tick­
ets for the Knicks in New York. That's 
where W oody Allen and Spike Lee

sit," Penders said.

home game.

The additional seats fulfill one cam­
paign promise of Boyles and SG Vice 
President Brandon Bichler who said 
they also are happy with the progress 
they have made in attaining better 
seats at basketball games.

"I think it is a good start as we try 
to increase participation at basketball 
games," Bichler said. Bichler said he 
believes that if student attendance at 
games increases, the players, students 
and alumni will all benefit.

"Part of the unity on campus has to 
do w ith su p p o rtin g the ca m p u s' 
sporting teams," Bichler said.

Boyles said she hopes the addition­
al seats will also help to unify the stu­
dents at the games.

"It's not that we want more seats. 
Let's look at the number of students 
who go and accommodate them, not 
put them up into the balcony," Boyles 
said.

Previously, 500-1,000 arena seats 
were reserved for students and more 
than 3,000 seats were available in the 
upper deck, Penders said.

He added th at on average only 
1 ,00 0 -2 ,5 0 0 stu d en ts atten d each

While students consistently did not 
fill these reserved seats, season ticket 
holders were being turned away. Sea­
son tickets cost $4,000 for non-stu­
dents, and 9,000 season tickets have 
been sold for next season.

Penders said that if students sup­
ported bask etball more regu larly, 
they would have more arena seats.

"I would like to see the arena full of 
9,000 students, but I don't pay the 
bills around here," Penders said.

Boyles said the fact that students 
are not guaranteed good seats may 
discourage a high student turnout.

"Students are just kind of pushed 

off into the corner," Boyles said.

Dodds said he is more than willing 

to satisfy the wants of the students.

"Students are our best customers. 
We want to treat students fairly ," 
Dodds said.

An SG ad hoc com m ittee w hich 
Boyles has formed will plan out the 
specifics of how the tickets for the 
new seats will be allocated.

Boyles and Dodds will meet again 
this month to finalize the details of 
the seats.

André Yi, a studio art senior, attempted to weld a 
steel rod into the shape of a circle Tuesday after­
noon in the sculpture labs located behind the Art

Building. Yi said that in his sculpture class the stu­
dents can use all media, but sculpting with metal 
requires a little trial and error.

Campus groups to question Doggett at ‘town hall’ forum

EVAN JOHNSON
Daily Texan Staff

Several student organizations are gearing 
up for U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett's visit to cam­
pus W ednesday, where they expect him to 
talk about federal financial aid and other 
issues affecting students.

Both liberal groups like the U niversity 
Democrats, the extent's sponsor, and conserv­
ative groups like the College Republicans will 
send rep resen tativ es to hear D oggett, D- 
Austin, discuss events and issues in Washing­
ton, D.C, that will directly influence the Uni­
versity.

The forum will be held in room 3.134 of the 
University Teaching Center.

"M r. Doggett will basically be holding a 
[town hall] meeting with students," said Josh 
Coger, projects director of the U niversity 
D em ocrats. "H e'll talk for a few mom ents 
and then open up to questions from students. 
He'll probably cover anything from funding 
for public broadcasting to student loans."

Doggett will also discuss "w hat Congress 
has done that hurts the middle class and the 
Republican assault on a w om an's right to 
choose," said Jeff Nelson, a spokesman for 
Doggett's office.

A representative from the College Republi­
can s said th at th ou gh CR m em bers w ill 
a tten d the event, she w ished it w as not 
Democrat-sponsored.

"I'm kind of disappointed that he's being

brought in in a partisan manner, because he 
does represent everyon e in A u stin ," said 
Paula Frey, public relations chairman of the 
College Republicans, which distributes anti- 
Doggett bumper stickers in West Mall. "But I 
would say that he has stuck with his promis­
es, although we disagree with those promis­
es."

But members of other groups, such as Stu­
dents for Choice, said they favor Doggett's 
stand on some issues.

"W e support Lloyd Doggett," said Jessica 
Strickell, secretary-treasurer of Students for 
Choice. "W e're one of the groups that helped 
get him elected. I am very happy to see him 
up there” in Washington D.C.

The Student Lifesavers, a campus pro-life

group, did not share Strickell's sentim ents 
about Doggett.

"A lthough Lloyd Doggett thinks that he 
represents the students of this campus, unfor­
tunately, he w on't be doing so for long; he 
will never represent the 4,545 would-be stu­
dents that w ere aborted today due to his 
abso lu tely asinin e pro-death, anti-fam ily 
agenda," said Sonia M ohammed, executive 
director of Young Conservatives of Texas and 
president of Student Lifesavers.

Some other non-partisan groups also hope 

to get Doggett to address their issues.

"M em bers of University of Texas Hemp 
C am p aig n p lan to ask R e p re se n ta tiv e 
Doggett what he's doing to put justice back 
into the criminal justice system," said Doug

Lewin, president of the UT marijuana legal­
ization group.

Cas Purdy, an advertising freshman and 
m em ber of Lesbian Bisexual Gay Student 
A sso c ia tio n , said re p re se n ta tiv e s from 
LBGSA want Doggett to address homosexual 
issues.

"The big focus is on how schools are deal­
ing with the gay issue. I think that is our main 
concern — how schools react and deal with 
homosexual students," Purdy said. "I think 
that there is a lot of discrimination out there, 
but I am hoping that public schools will take 
a pro-active stance on discrimination."

But Suzanne Sanders, chairman of College 
Republicans, said students should not place 
such faith in Doggett.

announced Tuesday that students will have input 
on the quality of food served in dorm cafeterias.

"W e are proposing a round table," said Floyd

U n iv ersity R esid en ce Hall A sso ciatio n m eeting 
Tuesday. "The people who eat at the cafeterias will

The University Residence Hall Association is a

residence halls. The representatives make decisions 
that affect students living in residence halls.

The student round table, which Hoelting said is 
part of his ongoing com m itm ent to w orking with 
dorm residents, will consist of three resident assis­

with his own ideas and input from students who 
live there. So in the first w eek o f the sem ester, 
Hoelting moved into the Beauford H. Jester Center 
to get closer to the residents.

Now in his second month as a Jester resident, 
H oelting said he has no com p lain ts, though he 
does not see his family very often. Hoelting added 
that he has gotten to know quite a few students 
from all areas of the dorm.

"H e's new, but he'll have a reallv positive effect 
here, said Jill Vincent, University Residence Hall 
Association national communications coordinator, 
who is in contact with other residence hall associa­
tions in the country.

"H e's really looking to get people involved."
Hoelting said he plans to add a lot more variety 
to the d o rm ito ries' cafeteria fare but could not 
comment yet on the specifics.

Cafeterias are planning to work w ith several of

Students tape questions 
for Clinton on West Mall

TOM VAUGHN
Dally Texan Staff

UT students may get a chance to 
direct specific questions at President 
Clinton when he com es to cam pus 
Oct. 16.

O fficia ls of the D istin g u ish ed 
Speakers C om m ittee said Tuesday 
they will be on the West Mall Monday 
videotaping student questions for 
Clinton, and the president is expected 
to answer as many as possible.

"He's doing us a favor by coming to 
campus," said Jane Cummins, chair of 
the committee.

C um m ins also offered the first 
insights as to what Clinton might talk 
about in his speech, saying "he will 
mainly be addressing student issues," 
including financial aid. The speech 
will be titled "From Campus to the 
White House," and it will include his 
own experiences as a student and his 
philosophy on higher education.

In a separate a meeting Tuesday, 
Student G overnm ent officials d is­
cussed the videotaped questions to 
Clinton and other ways students can 
communicate with federal legislators.

O fficials are looking for w ays to 
establish long-term communications 
between students and U.S. legislators 
about federal financial aid cuts, said 
Ellice Perez, SG citizens affairs director.
"W e are working on getting post­
cards sent to students with facts about

financial aid," said Brian Greeney, Leg^ 
islative Relations Agency co-director.

He said the postcards would detail 
cu rren t p ro p o sals in W ashin g ton 
regard ing fin an cial aid cuts and 
would allow students to communicate 
their opinions about those and other 
issues directly to legislators.

"Financial aid is som ething that 
affects everybody," Greeney said. He 
added that cuts "w ould affect more 
than just people who receive financial 
aid" because universities might have 
to raise tuition and fees to compensate 
for the loss, and people with aid might 
be forced to go to other, cheaper uni­
versities.

Some SG members also will address 
federal financial aid concerns at the 
first annual National Association of 
Students for Higher Education confer­
ence Oct. 13-15 in Washington, D.C. 
NASHE, which SG President Sherry 
Boyles co-founded, is a new student 
lobbying organization almost exclu­
sively concerned with financial aid 
matters.

The government also will begin its 
voter registration drive Wednesday on 
the West Mall.

"We are going to try to get people to 
register to vote and to actually get 
people to go vote. We need to make 
students realize there are many issues 
affecting them," Smith said. "We cer­
tainly don't want the student vote to 
be neglected."

DO YOU HAYC Tension HCADACHCS?

I f so, you may qualify to participate 

in a research study.

1. M ale or female, at least 18 years old.
2. Have 1-10 headaches per month.

Sobriety checkpoints 
spur civil rights debate

BRIAN R O S A S ________________ . 
Daily Texan Staff

___

A state senator told the Senate Crim inal Justice C om ­
m ittee T u e sd a y that in the next le g islativ e se ssio n he 
will p u sh for a p lan to u se police ro ad b lo ck s to fight 
drunken driving.

“ In ste a d o f p u n ish in g a p e rso n for d riv in g w h ile 
in to x icated , so b rie ty ch e c k p o in ts d e te r p e o p le from 
ever getting behind the wheel drunk in the first place," 
said State Sen. D avid Sibley, D-Waco.

A cc o rd in g to S ib le y 's p ro p o sa l, v e h icle s w o u ld be 
sto p p ed on a regu lar b asis, and officers in m ost cases 
could inspect each car for no longer than two m inutes.

Vehicles w aitin g to be inspected w ould be required 
to w ait no longer than 10 m inutes. O fficers w ou ld be 
able to conduct a field sobriety test if a driver ap p eared 
to be intoxicated, and vid eo cam eras w ould be used at 
each checkpoint.

But A m erican Civil Liberties Union officials said the 
p ro p o sa l w o u ld im p o se u n w a rran te d co n strain ts on 
m any law -abiding citizens, not give T exan s ad d ed pro­
tection again st drunk drivers.

Jay Jacobson, executive director of the T exas chapter 
of the A CLU , said drunken driving in the state is not a 
big enough problem that peop le should be pulled over 
and interrogated by police.

“ The w h o le bill o f rig h ts is in je o p a rd y , w ith the

exception o f the Second A m en d m en t," Jacob son said. 
"T h is is just another nail in the coffin."

Jacob son w ent on to call Sibley's p ro p o sal "political 

posturin g" and "a violation of the Fourth Am endm ent."

The Second A m endm ent guarantees the right to bear 
arm s, w hile the fourth protects again st illegal searches 
and seizures.

While Sibley told the com m ittee that variou s studies 
have show n sobriety checkpoints to be the m ost effective 
deterrents to drunken driving, Jacobson said that adding 
police patrol officers is the best w ay to fight the problem.

But M o th ers A g a in st D run k D riv in g o ffic ia ls said 
cou rts have found checkpoints do not violate anyone's 
civil rights.

"Checkpoints aren't all the answers, but they do offer a 
tool to police to prevent drunk drivers," said Bill Lewis, 
public policy liaison for tht? Texas chapter of M ADD.

L ew is,ad d ed that checkpoints have a clear ad van tage 
over otKér form s o f law enforcem ent because they are 
m ore visible and serve as a better deterrent.

L ast session Sibley filed a bill identical to the p ro p o s­
al he p re se n te d to the c o m m ittee T u e sd a y . T he bill

Paper food stamp system nears 
replacement by ‘Lone Star card’

N ew program to increase security, save millions of state dollars
44 This card now makes

The plan has come under some fire from advo­
cates of the poor, becau se the card allow s no 
cash to change hands. Som e users w ould buy 
food with stamps and take change to buy other 
items such as toiletries or laundry detergent.

Texas Comptroller John Sharp stood in what 
w ill b e c o m e a d in o sa u r T u e sd a y and bid 
farewell to traditional food stamps in Texas.

Associated Press

Standing in the largest food stamp warehouse 
in the nation outside the U.S. Treasury, Sharp 
pointed out the last 55,441 paper food stamps to 
be used by Texans in the state.

By the end of October, the state's new Elec­
tronic Benefit Transfer system will be up and 
running statew id e. C entral T exas is the final 
region to stop using paper food stamps and start 
using a plastic debit card, called the Lone Star 
card , to d e d u ct e le c tr o n ic a lly fro m a sta te 
account.

"T h is card now m akes the food stam p pro­
gram in the state of Texas the most efficient, the 
most fraud-proof that exists in the United States 
of America," Sharp said.

The new system has been in the works since 

1991 and has been phased in throughout 1995.

H ouston, the first area to get the new Lone 
Star card, has seen food sales rise by $4.5 million, 
a month. And that was with no new benefits and 
even a drop in the number of people on the pro­
gram, Sharp said.

The Dallas-Fort Worth area similarly has seen 

the food stamp program in the 
state of Texas the most efficient, 
the most fraud-proof that exists 
in the United States of America.” 
— Texas Comptroller John Sharp

"T h is little card doesn't work in a downtown 
street corner in H ouston, Texas, buying crack 
cocaine or something that you're not supposed 
to bu y," Sharp said.

The card also provides users m ore security, 
w hich is reflected in its use across the state. 
W hereas people used to deplete their food stamp 
supply in the early days of a month for fear of 
losing their stamps or having them stolen, those 
using the Lone Star card may use benefits equal­
ly over an entire month.

By Novem ber, more than 64,000 households 
will use the new Lone Star card at 16,000 retail­
ers. Mary Fero, program manager at Transactive 
Corp., the private company that won the right to 
implement the system, said her company is pro­
cessing 250,000 transactions a day.

But state officials say the food stamp program 
w as never m eant for th ose p u rposes. W h at's 
more, much of the time change was used to buy 
drugs, cigarettes, alcohol.

" Y o u 'r e seein g the food stam p p ro g ram , I 
believe, returned to w hat its original purpose 
was, and that is feed poor kids and not feed part 
of an underground econom y that should have 
never been there to begin w ith," Sharp said.

The state and nation stand to save millions of 
dollars in costs for printing, collecting, sorting, 
counting and shredding paper tickets.

Sharp spoke at the M agic Valley Distribution 
warehouse, which used to employ 50 people. It 
now employs just 12.

Nancy Ward, manager at Magic Valley, said it 
was a "b ittersw ee t" mom ent for the company, 
which was created to distribute food stamps. But 
the com pany supports the new system , w hich 
she called "b e st for the clients and best for the 
taxpayers."

"Y ou can't stand in the way of progress," she 

said, adding that the company would survive.

Bush names 2 Supreme Court justices

Associated Press

G ov. G eorge W. Bush appointed two fellow 
Republicans to the Texas Suprem e Court Tues­
day, giving the party a 7-2 majority on the state's 
highest civil court.

Appellate Judge James A. Baker of Dallas was 
sworn in immediately to fill the vacancy left by 
the Sept. 1 resignation of Justice Bob Gammage. 
State District Judge Greg Abbott of Houston will 
replace Justice Jack Hightower beginning Jan. 1, 
1996.

Gammage and Hightower are both Democrats.

"T h is is a h isto ric day for our state. R arely 
does a governor get to appoint anybody to the 
Suprem e Court, and I get to appoint two fine 
Texans," Bush said.

Baker, 64, has served on the 5th District Court 
of A p p eals in D allas for n in e y e a rs and has 
earned consistently high marks in the Dallas Bar 
Association poll.

"T h is position offers op portunity, it entails 
responsibility and it presents a challenge," Baker 
said . " I a ccep t the o p p o rtu n ity . I accep t the 
responsibility. And I accept the challenge.

A bbott, 37, p resid es over the 129th D istrict 
Court in Houston and has topped the list of out­
standing state judges compiled by the Houston Bar 
Association every year since his election in 1992.

The timing of H ightow er's resignation works 
for Abbott, who is wheelchair-bound after a par­
alyzing jogging accident, because he will not be 
eligible to serve on the Supreme Court until Nov. 
8. Judges must serve for 10 years before being eli­
gible for the high court.

Hightower announced in June his intention to 

quit at the end of the year.

"It's a position of tremendous responsibility to 

be on the Texas Supreme Court," Abbott said.

" I accep t the ap p o in tm en t from G ov. Bush 
w ith fu ll u n d e rs ta n d in g o f th e ro le o f th e 
Supreme Court and the role that it plays in our 
lives and lives of all Texans.

The judges "bring experience and innovation, 
legal scholarship, trial expertise, fair judgm ent 
and sound tem peram ent" to the Supreme Court, 
and they share "m y co n servative philosophy 
about the judiciary," Bush said.

"Judges should interpret the laws as passed by 
the Legislature, nob make law s from the court­
room ," he said.

They should also campaign for their seats on 
the bench, the govern or said. H is exp erien ce 
appointing Baker and Abbott did not change his 
mind about Texas' system of judicial selection.

Both men must run for election next year to 

keep their seats on the court.

"I think it's good for Texas if they ask for the 

vote," Bush said.

Gam m age and other supporters of reforming 
the current system of partisan elections for the 
ju d iciary said the ap p o in tm en ts w ould focus 
attention on judicial selection.

L aw m akers debated a p ro p o sal d uring the 
1995 Legislature to change the system of partisan 
e le c tio n s for ju d g e s in to a sy ste m by w h ich 
judges would be appointed by the governor and 
confirmed by the Texas Senate, but the measure 
failed.

Both Baker and A bbott say they agree w ith 

Bush in advocating the current system.

" I think the present system is what we need in 
Texas. That's the way I came in ," Baker said. "It's 
beneficial to me, so why knock it?"

Both men said they would comply with new 
voluntary cam paign finance guidelines, which 
were supported by Bush and passed by the 1995 
Legislature.

Gammage, however, said the new justices will 

learn to dislike the selection system.

" I don't think it will take them long to change 
their m inds," he said. "W hen they have to try to 
do this job and w age that p artisam b attle out 
there, their perspective will probably change."

Houston mayor tied 
to FBI investigation

Associated Press

H O U STO N — FBI agents are 
in v e stig a tin g w h eth er o ffic ia ls

benefited from a collections con­
tract awarded to a longtime asso­
ciate of the m ayor, the H ouston 
Chronicle reported Tuesday.

U n id e n tifie d so u r c e s c o n ­
firmed the probe in the newspa­
per's Tuesday editions. The Asso­
ciated Press confirm ed the story 
w ith an u n id en tified source on 
Tuesday.

At issue is a 1993 city contract 
with M unicipal Collections Inc. to 
p u rsu e d e lin q u e n t tr a ffic and 
p a rk in g tic k e t re v e n u e . T h e 
agency is owned by Peary Perry, 
a private investigator with long­
standing ties to Lanier.

L a n ie r sp o k e sw o m a n P a ig e 
Cullison said Tuesday the mayor 
has not been contacted by investi­
gators. Lanier told the Chronicle 
M onday that any speculation he 
is a target of an investigation is 
"a total fabrication."

The FBI in Houston would not 
comment on the story when con­
tacted Tuesday.

The sources fam iliar w ith the 
in v estigatio n told the C hron icle 
that federal agents are casting a 
wide net in their quest for infor­
mation, interviewing figures con­
nected to the collection contract.

investigators, sources said partic­

Perry and his contacts in city gov­

At issue is a 1993 city 
contract with Munici­
pal Collections Inc. to 
pursue delinquent 
traffic and parking 
ticket revenue. The 
agency is owned by 
Peary Perry, a private 
investigator with 
longstanding ties to 
Lanier.

L an ier can celed the co n tra ct 
between Perry's firm and the city 
in August after an audit by Con­
troller George Greanias conclud­
ed the firm was overpaid an esti­
mated $1 million.

L an ier has sh arp ly d isp u ted 
the audit findings, and said the 
m a tte r w o u ld b e re s o lv e d in 
court. Municipal Collections sued 
the city last w eek for breach of 
contract.

Among those being questioned 
are business associates of Perry, 
said Richard M orrison, attorney 
for the agency.

M o rriso n an d P e rry d en ied 
that collusion or cronyism played 
a role in aw ard in g or m an ag e­
m ent of the collections contract, 
and predicted the investigation 
would come to nothing.

The Chronicle reported that fed­
eral grand jury subpoeanas could 
go out this week for documents 
pertaining to the investigation. 
Another source said investigators 
already have collected numerous 
docum ents relevant to the con ­
tract.

If a beer sits around for a day, it 
goes flat. Unfortunately, so does The 
Complete Book o f Beer Drinking Games, 
by Andy Griscom, Ben Rand and 
Scott Johnston.

This is a book you really want to 
like. In fact, it will probably be the 
book to supplant Final Exit as the 
book most often borrowed but never 
returned. And it is funny... once.

The second time through, it's only 
mildly amusing. And the third time 
it is as bland as the Federal Tax Code.
As a reference book, Beer Drinking 
Games shows its real weakness. No 
one can pretend to include every pos­
sible version of a drinking game in 
144 pages, especially when 16 pages 
are wasted (no pun intended) on 
some lame "Beer Curriculum" joke.

For example, these guys mess up 
one of the most well-known drinking 
games in the nation: quarters. They 
left out the rules. Everyone knows 
when you play quarters, if you hit 
three or more times in a row (the 
number depending on the skill of the 
players), you get to make a rule.

The authors of Beer Drinking 
Games take it upon themselves to set 
rules at the beginning of the book 
and say such house rules should 
apply to all drinking games. What 
are these guys, drunks or elemen­
tary school teachers?

All the answers to this book's 
to one 
problem s can be traced 
source: The authors are all Yalies. So 
while they are legitimate college stu­
dents, and (if you believe their sto­
ries) legitimate drunks, do we really 
want graduates of George Bush's 
alma mater telling us how to play 
drinking games?

A u t h o r s o f a d r in k in g g a m e s m a n ife s to s p it fo r a c c u r a c y , n o t d is t a n c e .

What's more, do we want imbib­
ing instruction from Yankees? Grant­
ed, Boston gave us Samuel Adams, 
but have you ever tried to pound one 
of those? They seem to like Texas 
beers (Lone Star and Pearl get men­
tioned), so they're not all bad. But 
Yankees? No thanks.

The book is not a total loss. Some 
of Beer Drinking Games' more 
obscure games 
fun 
(although no one I know has dis­
played the guts to play them). Beer 
Hunter, in particular, stands out 
from the crowd.

look pretty 

In this game for suicidal maniacs 
who aren't crazy enough to kill 
themselves, two players need a six- 
pack of beer in cans. The players are 
blindfolded, or close their eyes, or 
whatever, and a third person shakes 
one of the cans. Then the cans are 
switched around so that no one 
knows where the loaded can is.

Then, player 1 takes any can, puts it 
under his nose, and pulls the top. If he

gets sprayed, he's dead. If he doesn't 
get sprayed, he's still alive. Then play­
er 2 does the same, and so on, until 
someone gets drenched. Then the 
winner is blindfolded, a new player 
joins the game, and the loser has to 
drink all the open beers. This mix of 
brews and suspense sounds good (by 
the way, they call it Beer Hunter 
because of the Russian roulette scene 
in the movie The Deer Hunter).

So, do read this book — there are 
some fun games contained therein. 
Read it at the library, read it at the 
book store, read a friend's copy. But 
don't buy it. The authors would just 
blow the money on beer.

cal flights of poetry on bleak, black 
and w hite film.

The w ords, too, are quite good. 
A lm ereyda gets aw ay w ith a lot 
m ore than he d eserves. H is w illing 
actors speak in allegories, in para­
graphs, in unabashed abstractions, 
in d isconnected frag m en ts and in 
hilariou s non-sequitur.

In a bar, N adja d eclares “Y oung 
people know just ab ou t everything, 
bu t they have no m eans of d efend ­
ing them selves against it." In the 
gloom y basem ent o f C astle Dracula, 
Edgar rum inates, “I rem em ber play­
ing here as a child. It seem s so m uch 
sm aller now ."

A lm ereyd a's p ro gram is to create 
a vam pire film w ith alm ost no gore, 
suspense, or tension. N either is he 
particu larly interested in the philo­
sophical or psychological aspects of 
vam pirism . He seem s to be striving 
for a sort of poetry of experience 
that hovers betw een startling ju xta­
position and beau tiful pauses.

T h e b est realized m o m en ts 
in 
N adja are stark and haunting. Lucy 
and N adja m eet for the first time in

NO JOKE
Artist: M eat Puppets 
Label: London R ecords 
R a tin g: ★ ★ (out of five)

Em ergin g from the desert, both 
m u sically and geographically, The 
M eat Puppets staked their claim as 
one o f the oddest, m ost talented, yet 
un derapp reciated b an d s of the '80s. 
W ith the exception o f The Gin Blos- 
som s and Barry G old w ater, A rizo­
nans rarely find fam e, fleeting or 
otherw ise.

For a w'hile, the m ost anyone ever 
saw o f The M eat P uppets w as their 
cam eo role on the B everly Hills 90210 
pilot episode. But w’ith their new 
album , No Joke, The M eat Puppets 
o n ce again hope to p lease their 
90210 fans by adding to the M TV 
su ccess they found from their previ­
ous sem i-breakthrough album , Too 
H igh to Die.

Produced by local B u tth ole Surfer 
Paul Leary, No Joke carries with it 
the broken prom ise of im provem ent 
ov er their last few paltry releases. In 
all fairness, Leary ad ds a few inter­
estin g touches to their sound, m ain­
ly in the form of ov erd u bb ed noise, 
rem iniscent o f the interesting m usic 
he used to m ake in the '80s.

H ow ever, the few to u ches Leary 
adds are precisely that: few. O ther 
than the tw o "ro ck e rs" w hich open 
each sid e of the albu m — that is, if 
im a g in e m u sic by
w e can still 

S u z y A m is is C a s s a n d r a in Nadja.

pheric m om ents in N adja are m ore 
attem pted than successful. M any of 
the pauses and im ages seem poorly 
thought out or half-d eveloped .

T here is an in ven tive note of bitter 
self-m ockery in the d ialogu e ("M y 
sister is sending m e a psychic fax .") 
and a penchant for cam p y m om ents 
— a vam pire p u ppet cackles at the 
cam era, a close up o f L u g o si's eyes 
appears during a m onologue.

The sum effect is on e of halfheart­
edn ess. The film exists neither in 
one w orld nor another. It is neither 
thriller nor poetry, but a disgust 
w-ith the form er and cow ard ice in 
the face of the latter. The ending 
seem s rushed and choppy.

v in y l's tw o-sided stand ard s — the 
C D is a gradual retreat in to balladry. 
L ack in g the m ood o f the slow er 
songs from their album Up on the 
Sun, the ballads from N o Joke remain 
only as w hat a that genre often is — 
cliche, sleep-inducing, and u nevent­
ful.

T h o se w ho had benn about to give 
up hop e on this band w ill be disap­
pointed if they hoped that N o Joke 
w ould put the M eat P u p p ets back 
on course. It doesn't.

Som etim es a band w ill m ake a 
few albu m s that are so good that the 
b an d can never again m eet their 
fans' expectations. A rguably, M eat 
P u ppets 11 and Up on the Sun were 
th ose defining album s. Instead of

H elp W anted QB’s wife recounts domestic attack

800 - General 

T h e D a i l y T e x a n Wednesday, October 4, 1995 Page 13

Associated Press

R IC H M O N D , Texas — W arren 
M o o n 's w ife feared for her life 
when the quarterback attacked her 
this summer, according to a police 
affidavit.

" I was afraid for m y life," Felicia 
M oon told police as she recounted 
the Ju ly 18 incident. " I saw black 
and could not breathe."

H er statement is in .a probable- 
cause affidavit, obtained by The 
Houston Chronicle and revealed in 
Tuesday editions.

She said she implored, "Jesus, 
just help m e," in anticipation of the 
assault.

Moon, traded by Houston to the 
Minnesota Vikings after the 1993 
season, could not be reached for 
comment. H is attorney, Rusty 
H ardin, did not return a p hore call 
Tuesday to The Associated Press.

The N F L star faces a Class A mis­
demeanor assault charge in connec­
tion w ith the incident at the cou­
ple's spacious home in M issouri

The M oons and th eir four 
ch ild ren have sought 
co un seling since the 
h ig h ly p u b licized in c i­
dent and the 38-year-old 
q u arte rb a ck ’s arrest

City, southwest of Houston. H e is 
scheduled to be arraigned on Oct. 
24 before C ounty Court-at-Law No. 
1 Judge La rry Wagenbach.

38-year-old 

The Moons and their four chil­
dren have sought counseling since 
the highly publicized incident and 
quarterback's 
the 
arrest. In news conferences after 
the incident, M oon's w ife said she 
did not w ant to pursue charges 
against her husband. Both pledged 
to continue counseling and w ork to 
save their marriage and their fam i­

ly-

But district attorney John H ealey 
said the facts of the case prompted 
his office to proceed anyw ay. His

office has since subpoenaed her 
and her 7-year-old son, Jeffrey, 
who made the 911 call, to appear at 
M oon's first court date.

H ealey said he believes he has 
the option of using a new state law 
that took effect Sept. 1 to force 
M oon's w ife to testify against her 
la w elim inated 
husband. The 
"sp o u sa l p riv ile g e ," w h ich pre­
vented testim ony against one's 
spouse.

The M oons' housekeeper, Elena 
M arie M orales, told police she 
heard M oon yelling for help about 
noon on Ju ly 18 and saw her hus­
band pushing her. Moon later fled 
in h er car. Sources say M oon 
chased his w ife at speeds reaching 
100 mph.

Felicia M oon 

returned home 
w hile detectives were talking to the 
housekeeper, the report said.

She w as "c r y in g and vis ib ly 
upset," detectives said. "S h e had 
blood to the right side of her face 
and neck. She had scratch marks on 
her face and abrasions on her neck.

She appeared to be in p ain ."

M o o n 's sw orn statem ent to 

police detailed the encounter.

"T o d a y I was in my gazebo read­
ing m y B ib le," she said. "W a rre n 
came in. I got up and left the gaze­
bo and started to w alk toward the 
house, and I started saying, 'Jesus, 
just help me ... Jesus, just help me.' 
I was praying because I thought 
that W arren was going to hit m e."

The document does not indicate 

w h y she thought he w ould hit her.

"W a rre n started to slap me on 
the head by m y ears w ith his open 
hand,” M oon told police. " H e 
choked me so that I couldn't talk or 
breathe. W hen he choked me, I 
thought that he was losing control 
and that he w o uld n't know when 
to stop choking m e."

A t that point, according to the 
affid avit, detective A n d i W iltse 
placed her hands on her ow n neck 
and asked, "W h e n you say choked, 
do you mean like th is?"

M oon replied, "Y e s ," the affi­

davit said.

TRADE WARS

Counterfeiters 
must pay pros

Associated Press

O RLA N D O , Fla. — Two Florida men who prosecutors 
say operated one of the biggest counterfeit trading card 
operations in the nation have been ordered to pay $2.1 
million to professional sports leagues.

U.S. District Judge G. Kendall Sharp ordered Dennis 
Murray and his son Tim, both of Melbourne, Ha., to pay 
damages to the N BA , NFL, N H L and Major League Base­
ball.

Jeff Laytin, an attorney for N B A Properties Inc., said 
Monday that the Murrays printed the cards in the Orlan­
do area as well as out of state.

The leagues own the trading-card rights to their ath­
letes. Federal law bans anyone from printing those cards 
without licenses from the leagues.

Armed with a court order, the N B A seized 100,000 
unauthorized cards in a raid on Dennis Murray's home 
last year. Also seized were records that indicated the 
operation had shipped $100,000 worth of cards to dealers 
throughout the country during a three-month period in 
1994, said Eric Weinstein, another N B A lawyer.

The N B A first discovered the operation in June 1993, 

Weinstein said.

In January 1994, the N B A and Murray agreed to a set­
tlement that called tor him to pay $2,500 and stop pro­
ducing counterfeit cards. After fire N B A discovered Mur­
ray was still distributing cards, it filed suit, alleging trade­
mark infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition 
and fraud.

The Murrays, who represented themselves in the case, 

settled before the case came to trial later this month.

The Murrays have unlisted telephone numbers in Mel­
bourne and could not be reached for comment Tuesday.

New Jersey Devils Claude Lemieux (22), the 
Stanley Cup MVP for New Jersey last sea­
son, was traded twice Tuesday, ending up in

A S S O C IA T E D P R E S S
Colorado in a three-way deal featuring dis­
enchanted stars who are among the NHL’s 
top forwards.

On the front

Jones prepares for fight against NFL as Cowboys get ready to play without an injured Aikmc

Associated Press 

IR V IN G — Barry Switzer and 
Jerry Jones spent Tuesday preparing 
the Dallas Cowboys for two very dif­
ferent battles.

Coach Switzer and his staff are 
figuring out a w a y to crack Green 
Bay's staunch defensive front w ith­
out star quarterback Troy Aikman, 
w ho suffered a strained right calf in 
Sunday's 27-23 loss at Washington.

Jones, speaking at his regular m id­
day news conference, said he was

leaving later in the day for a meeting 
leaving later in the day for a meeting 
w ith N F L officials at an undisclosed 
place and time to continue discus­
sions concerning the league's $300 
million lawsuit against the club.

Jones, the Cowboys' owner, said 
the league got its first glimpse at the 
fashioned 
actual deals he has 
between Texas Stadium and spon­
sors such as Nike, Pepsi-Cola and Dr 
Pepper after meetings last week. He 
has m aintained com m unications 
with other owners and the N F L 
throughout the weekend.

The 
The

law suit has not 
law suit has not 
impeded negotiations between Jones 
and other potential sponsors, such 
as American Express, he said.

" I think there's some potential for 
positive results (from the meeting) as 
opposed to going full bore into 
heavy countersuits and heavy litiga­
tion," said Jones as his Nike logo 
lapel pin glistened in the camera 
lights. " I think there's enough to be 
gained to make me spend the energy 
and travel time to have the meeting."
H e said the four-hour session

involving him and a gr<
involving him and a group of ow n­
ers last week was "constructive," 
but nothing positive came of it.

Jones also said he believes the $35 
million contract of cornerback Deion 
Sanders, w ho is recovering from 
ankle surgery, w ill be approved by 
the league without any alterations.

M eanwhile, Switzer and his staff 
must draw up his game plan for 
Sunday's matchup against the Green 
Bay Packers without Sanders or A ik ­
man against the league's No. 1 
defensive unit.

Yanks overcome Griffey homers 
to take first playoff game, 9-6

Reds ease by LA, 7-2

Associated Press

NEW YORK — Don Mattinglv 
had waited his whole career, his 
whole life, for this game. Nothing was 
going to ruin it, not even Ken Griffey
Jr.

The New York Yankees became 
baseball's first wild-card team to win 
a plavoff game, overcoming Griffey's 
two home runs to beat the Seattle 
Mariners 9-6 Tuesday night in their 
AL playoff opener.

A standing, stomping crow d.of 
57 178, the largest at Yankee Stadium 
since it was remodeled for the 1976 
season, saw Mattingly, David Cone 
and the Yankees take a 1-0 lead in the 
best-of-5 series.

Mattingly, playing in the postsea­
son for the first time in his 14-year 
career, delivered an RBI single and a 
double. Playoff veterans Wade Boggs 
and Ruben Sierra both homered and 
Ben lie Williams doubled home the 
go-ahead run during a four-run sev­
enth inning that m ade it 8-4.

“It was everything I had supposed 
it would b e/' Mattingly said, “it was 
wild. It was a great place to be tonight. 
I'm sure some people might not 
agree but I can't think of any place I'd 
rather be."

Griffey did his best to spoil it, going 
3-for-5, driving in three runs and scor­
ing three times for the Mariners, who 
arrived at their New York hotel short­
ly before 4 a.m. EDT Tuesday. They 
were delayed because of Monday's 
playoff win over California at the 
Kingdome, a victory that meant ace 
Randy Johnson will not be able to face 
the Yankees until Game 3 at the earli­
est.

Attendance and enthusiasm was 
down at Yankee Stadium this season, 
as it was in most baseball cities, but it 
was hard to tell this night, from the 
moment Mattingly got an ovation 
when he stepped on the field to the 
final out.

"I thought there was such a passion 
and energy," said Yankees manager 
Buck Showalter, who displayed rare 
emotion when he pum ped his fist 
during pregame introductions.

“I've talked with Willie (Randolph) 
and Reggie (Jackson) about what it's 
like to play a playoff game here, and 
tonight I really got a feel for it," he 
said. “There was such an electricity in 
the air."

Griffey highlighted Seattle's first 
postseason game with a solo homer 
off the upper-deck facade in the 
fourth inning and a long, two-run 
homer in seventh that tied it at 4. His 
performance was 
reminiscent of 
George Brett's three home runs at 
Yankee Stadium for Kansas City in a 
6-5 loss to New York in Game 3 of the 
1978 AL playoffs.

Still, it was not enough to stop the 
Yankees in their 35th year of postsea­
son play, the most in the majors. New 
York broke the 4-4 tie in the seventh 
against loser Jeff Nelson and two 
other relievers, keyed by Williams' 
RBI double and Sierra's tw o-run 
homer. Williams singled home anoth­
er run in the eighth with his third hit.
Cone, 3-2 in seven career postsea­
son starts, pitched eight innings and 
allowed four runs and six hits. He had 
not pitched since Wednesday, when 
he won despite a blister on the middle 
finger of his pitching hand.

Braves scored twice to tie.

Vinny Castilla, a form er Braves 
prospect, hit a tw o-run hom er for 
the Rockies, w hile M arquis Grissom 
and Jones had solo hom ers for the 
Braves.

M addux's best feat w as escaping a 
bases-loaded, one-out predicam ent 
in the seventh. He got pinch-hitter 
John V ander Wal, w ho set a major 
league record w ith 28 pinch-hits this 
season, to bounce to the m ound. 
M addux threw hom e for one out, 
and Lopez's relay to first cut dow n 
V ander Wal.

G rissom 's tw o-out solo hom er off 
Ritz gave the Braves a 1-0 lead in the 
third.

The Rockies countered w ith three 
runs in the fourth, highlighted by 
C astilla's tw o-run hom er. W ith one 
out, W alker w alked and w ent to 
third on G alarraga's single that rico­
cheted off the wall in right-center. 
Burks then brought W alker hom e on 
a short sacrifice fly, w ith W alker 
beating Justice's high throw.

Seattle’s Ken Griffey Jr. watched his fourth inning home run clear 
the right field fence during game one of the American League divi­
sion plaoff series against the Yankees Tuesday.

“It's just one game," Griffey said.
“I've got to do something to help the 
ballclub tomorrow."

Griffey helped Seattle score twice in 
the ninth off John Wetteland before 
the reliever retired Jay Buhner and

Mike Blowers with two runners on 
base to end the Yankees' first postsea­
son game since 1981.

The crowd let loose with one last 
resounding cheer when Wetteland 
fanned Blowers to finish the victory.

Simpson verdict gets mixed responses 
from NFL coaches, players, fans

Associated Press

Fans cheered in Buffalo, site of some of O.J. 
Sim pson's m ost glorious m om ents in football. 
But the reaction of the football w orld w as as 
varied as the public reaction to Sim pson's 
acquittal Tuesday on m urder charges.

In Buffalo, h u n d red s of people packed a bar 
ow ned by Bills quarterback Jim Kelly and most 
reacted w ith delight w hen a Los Angeles jury 
found Simpson innocent of killing his ex-wife 
and her friend, Ron Goldm an.

"I'm definitely happy. I guess you could say 
I'm happy because I know the w ay O.J. w as," 
said Kelly, who w as at Rich Stadium in O rchard 
Park, N.Y.

"I knew him even before this, but my heart 
goes out to the tw o families of the deceased. 
K nowing O.J. the w ay I did, it was hard for me 
to believe that he did it."

That was the reaction of the m ostly w hite 

crow d at Kelly's Sport City Grill.

Patrons w ere h u sh e d and tense as they 
w atched the verdict that freed one of the city's 
most revered sports heroes read on m ore than a 
dozen televisions th ro u g h o u t the establish­
ment.

On hearing the first "n ot guilty," bartenders 
gave each o th er high-fives w hile patro n s 
hugged each other and wept.

"I was very relieved," said James Binner, the 
bar's m anager. "T he anxiety in the room was 
unbelievable."

Elsewhere, coaches and players show ed a 

strong interest in the verdict.

In Kansas City, coach M arty Schottenheim er 
of the Chiefs, w ho played for Buffalo, in terru p t­
ed his weekly press luncheon to watch it. A 
Chiefs aide had been told to m onitor the televi-

sion and interrupt the gathering w hen the ver­
dict w as to be announced.

But the reaction was m uted.
Running back M arcus Allen, w ho like Sim p­
son w on the H eism an Trophy at USC and was 
m arried in Sim pson's Los Angeles home, has 
steadfastly refused com m ent throughout the 
trial and had no com m ent on the verdict.

S ch ottenheim er's only com m ent was: "I 
learned a long time ago that if you d o n 't have 
inform ation, you shouldn't have an opinion."

Miami coach Don Shula w as equally diplo­

matic.

"N o w that the jury has judged O.J. Simpson 
not guilty, I hope he can get on w ith his life," 
Shula said. "It was a difficult time for all the 
parties involved in the trial, and now it is 
im portant to heal the w ounds that the trial 
opened."

Butch Davis, coach at the U niversity of 
Miami, postponed his new s briefing and invit­
ed about 30 m em bers of the m edia into his 
office, w here they w atched the verdict in 
silence.

Reggie McKenzie, an All-Pro g uard w ho 
blocked for Simpson in Buffalo, said from Seat­
tle, w here he is director of player program s for 
the Seahawks:

"All in all, from day one, I was the person that 
believed in O.J.'s innocence. I always said he 
was not guilty, and I think that's docum ented."
"I'm happy for O.J. and his family, and I real­
ly feel for the Brown family and the G oldm an 
fam ily," McKenzie said. "They cannot replace 
the tw o people that they lost, and it's very 
unfortunate and I really hope the killers are 
found."

But he add ed that he believed Sim pson 

w ould continue to suffer.

"I think there will alw ays be a cloud over his 
head ," McKenzie said. "Even if som ebody 
came out today and said, 'H ey, I did it,' there 
will alw ays be some people w ho will think that 
O.J. had som ething to do with it, and I do n 't 
think he'll ever be able to live that dow n."

A nother Sim pson su p p o rte r, g uard N ate 
N ew ton of the Dallas Cowboys, blam ed the 
media.

"G ive the man back his life," N ew ton told 
reporters. "You took it aw ay from him, now 
w ho's going to praise him ?"

Linebacker Cornelius Bennett of the Bills, 
w ho is black, w as disappointed that racial 
issues w ere so prom inent.

"It's sad that it came dowm to that because 
tw o people got killed," Bennett said. "It should 
not have been presented that way."

And there were those w ho were disapp oin t­

ed with the not guilty verdict.

Some patrons of Kelly's bar stared vacantly at 
the televisions while the rest of the bar celebrat­
ed. A few shed tears as the screen show ed the 
Goldm an family.

"I can't believe it," said H enry Cooperm an, a 
life insurance agent. "I'm just totally shocked. 
He got aw ay w ith m u rd er.”

Gusball: Texas kicks off fall series

Continued from page 16
O'Dell for the White team and Donny Barker for the 
Orange team.

O'Dell has picked up where he left off a season ago, 
when he made most All-Southwest Conference teams 
after earning an 11-3 record.

His counterpart on the mound, Barker, has been 
the most impressive pitcher in practices. Barker, who 
sat out last season because of academic troubles, has 
a 1.86 ERA this fall, striking out a team-leading 30 bat­
ters in just 19.1 innings. His pitches consistently graze 
90 miles-per-hour.

Though they are just practice games, Gustafson 
said that the pitchers will be used as if the game is a 
real game during the regular season.

" T h e /re going to go as far as they can," he said. 
"When they need to be relieved, they'll be relieved. It 
will be no different than a real game."

The second game will be a matchup of two junior 
college transfers who have been impressive this fall. 
Left-hander Kendal Adare from the Orange Team 
will go against right-hander Scott Leon.

Two pitchers who will not participate in the series 
are left-handers Mark Senterfitt and Brian McKinney. 
Both of the pitchers have suffered tenderness in their 
throwing elbows and are out for all of fall practice. 
Kelly Clements also will not participate because he is 
in Dallas attempting to regain his academic eligibility. 
Pitcher Chad Smith is questionable for the series after

TIMOTHY LORD/Daily Texan Staff 

a line drive bounced off his knee on Sunday.

The two teams were picked in an informal draft by 
the two assistant coaches. When one coach selected a 
player, the other coach automatically received the

next player at the same position.

The first player selected in this draft was Campbell, 
who was the catalyst of Texas' offense last year until 
an ankle injury kept him out of action for three weeks.
Campbell never did regain the havoc-raising style 
that he had before the injur)', but looks as if he may 
have returned to form this fall. He is second on the 
team with a .414 batting average with 17 runs and 10 
RBIs.

Another player who is having a standout fall is 
Edelstein. Edelstein hit .372 as a freshman last spring 
and is hitting .458 this fall with 17 runs, 17 RBIs, 10 
doubles and five triples.

One of the surprises of the fall has been freshman 
outfielder Benji Keith, who has a .391 average and a 
team-leading 19 runs scored.

"Benji Keith has had a really good fall," Gustafson 
said. "He's hitting well, fielding well, and hustling 
well. But he's got quite a bit to learn about baserun- 
ning and the way we play baseball."

For the only time of the year, teammates will be fac­
ing each other in an intense competitive atmosphere. 
And for these seven games, players on the White 
team are rivals with those on the Orange.

"Their job is to try and win these ballgames," 
Gustafson said. "During this week, they need to 
approach it like they're on the other team instead of 
teammates."

Rodman said he would sit out a 
year if he has to.
he can play with or against anyone.

"I have no problem w ith anybody 
in the world. I can deal with any­
thing," Rodman said in an interview 
with XTRA-AM. "Conflicts. It doesn't 
matter. The main thing you do on the 
basketball court is you communicate 
in the basketball world. Once you're 
off the court, you go your ow n sepa­
rate ways."

But Rodman, w ho is set to make 
$2.5 million in the final year of a con­
tract this season, said he isn't going to 
Chicago just to play w ith certain play­
ers. And he's not crazy about his con­
tract, either.

"Chicago is cold as hell. If I decide 
to go there, it's not because of Michael 
Jordan, Scottie Pippen or anything like 
that. That don't mean nothing. I don't 
bow dow n to any man, w hoever they 
are or w hat stature they have," he 
said.

Under the new collective bargain­
ing agreement, he could only get a 20 
percent raise on a contract extension 
of his current salary. Will Rodman 
show up on time? Cam p starts Friday.
"That depends on how I feel. If I feel 
like I'm in a good situation, great," 
Rodman said in the radio interview. 
"If I feel like it's going to be San Anto­
nio, I'll just sit the w hole dam n year 
out, period.

"I feel like the NBA stripped some 
of the heart and soul out of Dennis 
Rodman the last eight o r nine years 
and now the last couple of years, I've 
regained most of my identity back. 
Hopefully I can keep it to myself. I'm 
not going to let anyone get close to 
that again."

For starters, Rodm an has reportedly 
already m ade an unusual request. He 
w ants to wear jersey No. 91, a num ber 
the Bulls w ould have to get approved 
by the NBA.

W alto n h as th e m e n ta lity he

CHICAGO — D ennis R odm an's 
game is as unique as his personality 
and now he will have to blend his tal­
ents w ith tw o stars w ho w ere once bit­
ter rivals, Michael Jordan and Scottie 
Pippen.

Rodman, the NBA's top rebounder 
for the last four years, was voted the 
league's best defender in 1990 and 
1991 and helped the Detroit Pistons 
win a pair of championships.

Four straight times in the playoffs 
the Bulls and Pistons met in em otion­
al and intense series and Rodm an's 
tactics often 
aggressive defensive 
angered the Bulls. He was fined $5,000 
after one game for flagrantly pushing 
Pippen, w ho required six stitches in 
his chin.

Detroit won the first three postsea­
son m eetings before the Bulls finally 
broke through en route to their first of 
three straight titles.

"I do n 't know if you can put him as 
the baddest of 'The Bad Boys,' " Bulls 
coach Phil Jackson said. Bulls fans dis­
liked center Bill Laimbeer just as much 
as they did Rodman.

"A nybody who enjoys basketball 
and w ould say if there is a ballplayer 
who can rebound and defend in the 
league that could bring a certain status 
to the game, a certain am ount of con­
trol from that position, Dennis is the 
one w ho's changed the course of the 
game," Jackson said.

"You see it in Michael on the offen­
sive end, you see it in Scottie on the 
offensive end."

Jackson consulted with Pippen and 
Jordan before deciding to go ahead 
and let general m anager Jerry Krause 
trade w ith San Antonio for Rodman, 
whose career has been a troubled one 
on and off the court. Jackson said Rod­
man and Jordan had played some ball 
together in Los Angeles w here Jordan 
has been shooting a movie this sum ­
mer.

"I talked to our team leaders and 
they said this guy is one of the best 
players in the game, it w ould be tough 
not to go for him," said Jackson. The 
Bulls m ade the deal by giving up 
backup center Will Perdue.

Another plus for the Bulls is that 
Rodman, w ho's averaged an incom­
parable 17.7 rebounds a gam e the last 
four seasons, doesn't need to shoot the 
ball to be effective in an offense where 
Jordan, Pippen and Toni Kukoc do 
m o s t of the scoring. He can dom inate 
a game w ith defense and rebounding.
Last season he collected 20 or more 
rebounds in a game 20 times, includ­
ing a season-high 30 against the Hous­
ton Rockets. Rodman, w ho averaged 
seven points during a turmoil-filled 
season with the Spurs last year, said

D esp ite nursing a sore throw ing shou ld er for m ost 
of the 1995 season, B row n is the lead ing p asser in the 
S o u th w est C onference. He has reached 
the 1,000- 
yard passing m ark faster than any o th er T exas q u ar­
terback, throw ing for 1,011 yards in the first four 
g am es this season.

A lthough the o ffen se has averaged 482.5 yard s a 
gam e (11th n atio n ally) and 34.5 points a gam e (17th), 
T exas has turned the ball over nine tim es in the last

H istorically , the backu p qu arterback is the m ost

said.

said it was a first for him. "B u t I know

DENVER — Greg Maddux w asn't at 
his masterful best. Chipper Jones, how ­
ever, was.

As for Don Baylor, the Colorado m an­
ager ran out of position players with 
two outs in the ninth and the bases 
loaded. Baylor had to use left-handed 
pitcher Lance Painter as a pinch-hitter. 
Painter struck out.

The result was a 5-4 victory by the 
Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night in the 
opener of their NL playoff series, the 
first postseason game in the Rockies' 
three-year history.

Jones' second solo homer broke a 4-4 
tie in the ninth to win it for Atlanta. In 
the eighth, with runners on first and 
third, Jones also made a key defensive 
play, making a diving stop of Andres 
Galarraga's shot down the third-base 
line and throwing out a runner at sec­
ond. Instead of a big inning, the Rockies 
managed only one run.

"T h e play Jones made down the line 
was probably the gam e-w inner for 
them ," Baylor said. "T h at's a two-run 
double if he doesn't make the play. 
Then he hits the game-winning home 
run."

Jones said his stop was "ju st a reac­
tion play. Andres has a tendency to hit 
some balls down the third-base line for 
doubles. I saw it was an off-speed pitch 
and was sort of leaning that way. The 
only way I'm going to make that play is 
to lay out. If it sticks, hopefully we get 
an out. If it doesn't, they probably have 
a big inning. Luckily, it stuck."

Jones hit an inside fastball for the 
decisive homer, then hopped around 
the bases in jubilation.

" I was looking for a certain pitch and 
got that exact pitch," he said. "It was a 
tremendous thrill. In a big situation, 
with the game on the line in the ninth, it 
was probably my biggest career high- 
light."

Texas hits the field fo r its annual 
Orange-White Fall World Series

MARK LIVINGSTON
Daily Texan Staff

It may not be the College World Series. It may not even be as 
important as a non-conference game during the regular spring sea­
son.

But for the Longhorns, the 
Orange-White Fall World Series is 
the heaviest and most important 
competition that will happen during the off-season.

The seven-game intrasquad series starts at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday 

and will end Oct. 11, closing the Longhorns' fall practices.

The team is divided into two teams, Orange and White, and lasts 
the full seven games, whatever the outcome of any of the games. The 
Orange team will be led by assistant coach Deron Gustafson, while 
top assistant coach Tommy Harmon will coach the White team.

"I feel like it's the most competitive thing they do in the fall," Texas 
head coach Cliff Gustafson said. "If s the best opportunity to watch 
guys under real game situations."

The importance of the series lies in players who are either border­
line starters or on the bubble of making the squad. Due to Title IX, 
which guarantees gender equity in college sports, the team can only 
carry 36 players this year.

Veterans such as left fielder Chris Edelstein, centerfielder Brett 
Loeffler, third baseman MacGregor Byers, shortstop Kip Harkrider, 
second baseman Wylie Campbell and first baseman Danny Peoples 
most likely have their jobs locked up for the spnng. Other positions, 
however, are wide open.

"We're having a good battle for the catcher spot between Roman 
Escamilla and Trey Salinas," Gustafson said. "They could do some­
thing toward settling that battle."

A season ago, Escamilla started playing late in the year and hit a 
surprising .392, although he only had 51 at-bats. Salinas finished the 
season with a significantly lower average at .255 in 55 at-bats. Sali­
nas, however, gathered ten runs batted in, while Escamilla had just 
two.

As it has been all fall, the most scrutinized position will probably 
be the pitcher. The first game will feature a matchup between Jake
