Third version of shooting introduced in Daniel case 1
United Press International
LIBERTY — An emergency
medical technician testified Tues
day that Vickie Daniel told him
the shooting of her husband, for
mer Texas House Speaker Price
Daniel Jr., was an accident and
that she only intended to scare
him with the rifle used to kill him.
The testimony by Liberty fire
department employee Oscar Can
tu was the third version of the
shooting that witnesses have testi
fied that Mrs. Daniel gave to ex
plain the death.
Mrs. Daniel herself has testi
fied she killed her husband in self
defense, and could only remem
ber firing a warning shot, not the
fatal one. Her ex-husband has tes
tified that Mrs. Daniels told him
she tripped and the gun went off.

at the Daniels’ ranch-style home
Easy access
to inhalants
discouraged
United Press International
AUSTIN — A Houston
woman said Tuesday the easy
availability of toxic inhalants has
turned her 17-year-old son from a
“law-abiding Christian” to a man
with no values.
Pilar Garcia urged the Senate
Jurisprudence Committee to
approve a bill by Sen. Bob Vale,
D-San Antonio, requiring that
toxic inhalants contain additives to
discourage inhalation.
She also supported a bill by
Vale removing the accessibility of
spray paints and other inhalants
by requiring store employees to
handle the products before they
are sold to minors.
Garcia said her son has sniffed
silver spray paint for three years
and it has changed him dramatic
ally.
“It has changed him from a fine
young man to a man who has no
values — who has dropped out of
school and does nothing,” she
said. “I raised my son to be a law-
abiding young man, a Christian. It
has changed his life and ours, too. ”
Father Dermot Brosnan, dire
ctor of a San Ajitonio drug abuse
treatment center, -the Patrician
Movement, said abuse of toxic in
halants has blossomed into a se
rious problem in a relatively short
time.
Brosnan said his center treated
2,380 cases in 1975, but in 1980
the center reported about 4,000
cases.
George Solis, representing the
Harris County Juvenile Probation
Department in Houston, said the
department has about 300 toxic in
halant cases yearly.
“The abuse of chemicals not
only hurts children physically but
leads to other criminal activity,”
Solis said. “When they get high on
inhalants, they say Y like to
drive.’ If they don’t have a car,
they’ll steal a car.”
Vale’s bill requiring an additive
be contained in volatile chemicals
was referred to a subcommittee.
His bill making it a criminal
offense to sell certain glues or
spray paints to minors was re
ported out of committee favor
ably.
‘Sex’ tapes
deleted from
info hotline
United Press International
DALLAS — It seems the
Baylor University Center medical
information hotline has proved a
bit too popular with area young
people.
The hotline, called Tel Med,
amounted to a mini medical
school, offering information on
300 diseases. Anyone with a
medical question could dial Tel
Med’s number, pick a problem
ranging from “Otoplasty-The Cor
rection of Prominent Ears” to
“What Is a Normal Bowel?” and
request by number whatever
tape-recorded program the caller
wanted to hear.
Unfortunately, most of the peo
ple calling weren’t interested in
the cure for gout or the proper use
of laxatives.
Instead, giggling young clients
kept calling and asking for number
174, titled “Masturbation.” Fol
lowing close behind 174 in popu
larity were 1050, “Male Sexual
Response,” and 898, “Female
Sexual Response.”
The popularity of the sex tapes
proved to be a bit embarrassing for
Baylor officials, who preferred
that the public listen to the cure
for canker sores.
After number 174 became a hot
item among Dallas-area children,
upset parents began telephoning
to complain and the tapes were
removed. However, Baylor offi
cials say they may be returned in
less titillating form in the future.
the night of the shooting, said that
while Mrs. Daniel was being
transported by ambulance to a
hospital he asked her what had
happened.
“She said they had an argument
and he went upstairs to get some
pot or something,” Cantu testi
fied. “(She said) she went to get a
gun to scare him and he (Daniel)
said ‘oh no.’ She said it went off; it
was an accident.”
Cantu said that after the medics
found Daniel’s body, he went to
check on Mrs, Daniel, who was
huddled in a comer in the front of
the house.
“She looked frightened but was
not crying or hysterical,” Cantu
testified. “She asked how he was. I
didn’t answer. She got hysterical.”
her what happened.
“She said she had shot him,” he
said.
The custody case, brought by
Daniel’s sister, has centered Daniel is fighting for custod
around the shooting, and Mrs. her two children by Daniel
He said Mrs. Daniel started to
lunge at him but he grabbed her
hand and both ended up on the
floor. Mrs. Daniel was thrashing
around he said, hitting her head
against the floor and trying to bite
and scratch him until a fellow
medic helped him quiet her
down.
Cantu testified Mrs. Daniel
calmed down in the ambulance
but began crying when he asked
