Dates for special
mstate election set
United Press International
AUSTIN — Gov. Bill Clements has set Feb. 10 as the date for a
special election to fill the vacancy created by the House’s decision to
void a legislative race in San Antonio.
The House Thursday overwhelmingly voted to void the race in
which Republican Alan Schoolcraft defeated Rep. Al Brown, D-San
Antonio, by 1,038 votes in the November election.
Earlier a special committee recommended to seat Schoolcraft, but
the entire House accepted the committee’s minority report to void the
election,
Clements, who announced the date Friday, also set Jan. 21 as the
filing deadline.
Brown claimed that nonresidents of the district were allowed to vote
ibsentee by mail. He said if the questionable votes were thrown out
the result of the race would have been different.

as president of the Baptist-supported
university were his actions when
some Baylor women students
wanted to pose nude for a Playboy
Magazine pictoral in 1980.
McCall promised that students
who posed for the magazine would
be severely reprimanded and fol

newspaper. The Lariat, published
pro and con editorials on the matter,
and McCall dismissed three student
editors for their actions.
In 1978, McCall and university
trustees heard rumblings that some
Baylor professors were not following
the Baptist Faith and Message State
ment of 1963 that advocated teaching
the Bible as the inspired Word of
God and interpreting it literally.
A trustee committee investigated
the school’s religion department and
ruled that religion department pro
fessors must use the Bible as its main
textbook.
The same year, McCall banned an
informal campus group which had
been present since the 1930s. The
secret Noze Brotherhood’s members
dressed in outlandish garb and pul
led relatively harmless campus
pranks. McCall reprimanded the
group several times and finally dis
banded it when it proclaimed
McCall pope upon the death in the
Vatican of Pope John Paul I.
