SAN ANTONIO — A former
Marine who survived a rifle bul
let in Vietnam only to die eight
years later in an argument over
the war with hometown friends
was buried Monday at Fort Sam
Houston National Cemetery.
“On behalf of a grateful nation,
we present to you our nation’s
flag,” a cemetery official said as
he handed to the victim’s sob
bing mother the folded American
flag which had covered the coffin
of Robert I. Martinez.
Martinez, 32, was stabbed four
times in a fight with two former
high school chums who allegedly
“were making fun of him because
he was in the war,” according to
his brother, Jesse, 21.
The brother told police a man
held him at gunpoint to prevent
him from going to Martinez’ aid.
“It was jealousy, I guess,”
Jesse Martinez said. “He (Bobert
Martinez) said, are you making
fun of me?’ and they began to
fight.”
Martinez, a migrant worker
staying temporarily whith his
parents in San Antonio en route
from Michigan to California, was
survived by his wife, Solia, and
six stepchildren ages 4 to 16.
"Whether we won the war in
Vietnam or whether we thought
it was silly, I really don’t care,”
the Rev. Eugene Micheals said,
addressing 100 friends and rela
tives at St. Joseph Catholic
Church. “He went to Vietnam
and fought for a country that at
times forgot him. There’s lots of
violence in the world today. We
don’t even know why it’s there.”
An unusual amount of elec
tioneering — including an unex
pected public endorsement of a
candidate by a former convention
president, the Rev. W.A. Criswell
of Dallas — marked preliminary
sessions Sunday and Monday.
There were reports those favoring
strict “biblical inerrancy,” that is
stringent enforcement of the Bible
as church doctrine, were planning
to provide transportation for dele
gates expected to vote their way.
Criswell, whose 20,000-member
Dallas First Baptist Church is the
denomination’s largest, Sunday vio
lated what he called “an unwritten
law’’ against former convention
presidents’ endorsing candidates.
“We will have a great time here if
for no other reason than to elect Ad
rian Rogers (pastor of Bellevue Bap
tist Church of Memphis) president
of the Southern Baptist Conven
tion,” Criswell told the two-day pas
tors conference.
Criswell said others mentioned as
FBI releases
drawing of
Wood assassin
United Press International
SAN ANTONIO — The FBI
Monday released another composite
drawing of a man it wants to ques
tion in its investigation of the May
29 assassination of U.S. District
Judge John H. Wood Jr.
The sketch of a young man with
dark complexion and large nose
brought to six the number of com
posite drawings compiled by an FBI
artist from descriptions given by res
idents of the Chateaux Dijon Tow-
nhomes where Wood was shot in
the back with a single .243-caliber
bullet.
Michael A. Morrow, special agent
in charge of the local FBI, said that
the individual portrayed in the
drawing, “is not necessarily a sus
pect in the assassination, but was
also described by witnesses as being
in the immediate vicinity of Judge
Wood’s residence at the time of the
shooting.”
A special team of 40 FBI agents
assigned to the case so far have not
identified any of the persons in the
six composite drawings, a spokes
man said.
inerrancy candidates, the Rev.
Bailey Smith of First Southern Bap
tist Church, Del City, Okla., and
the Rev. Jerry Vines of Dauphin
Way Baptist Church, Mobile, Ala.,
will withdraw if Rogers runs.
No leading candidate had
emerged from the other side, which
espouses commitment to the Bible
as ruling doctrine but recommends
concentrating on worldwide
missionary commitment rather than
doctrinal criticism.
Among possible alternatives to
Rogers were Baylor University pres
ident Abner McCall; the Rev.
William Self of Wieuca Road Baptist
Church, Atlanta, and the Rev.
Douglas Watterson of First Baptist
Church, Knoxville, Tenn.
Two-term, outgoing president
Jimmy Allen, pastor of San Antonio
First Baptist Church, had expressed
concern doctrinal quibbling will dis
tract from the theme, “Bold Mission
Thrust,” a call to spread the gospel
to the entire world by 2000.
