AUSTIN — Gov. Bill Clements
wants his guests at the Republican
Governors Conference to have a
good time. The good time will cost
about $175,000, and is being co
vered by Clements’ financial
backers.
The governors get Cadillacs to
take them around town, and Texas
Rangers and Department of Public
Safety officers provide them with
security.
They have been treated to a ranch-
style barbecue, and given gifts in
cluding belt buckles, watercolor
prints of a Longhorn steer, charms,
handcrafted purses and a Texas cook
book.
A state dinner Monday night in
cluded entertainment by a Houston
theater group which presented five
musical numbers from the play “The
Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. ’
“We just wanted them to have a
good time,” said Chuck Nash, chair
man of the Republican Governors
Conference host committee. “Gov
ernor Clements is proud of his state,
and wanted them to have a good time
with a Texas flavor. ”
Nash said gifts from 75 to 100 of
Clements’ financial backers will cov
er the expenses. Anything left over
will go to charity, he said, adding
that Clements “was pretty intent on
there being some left over.”
While the governors went to the
barbecue Sunday night, staff mem
bers and reporters attended a Mex-
ican-style buffet and cocktail party at
an exclusive private club, complete
with Mariachi music and red cowboy
style neckerchiefs imprinted “Re
publican Governors Conference.”
A Dallas Cadillac dealer loaned 20
cars for use by the governors and
other dignitaries, and Nash’s own
