Dugas, in his first interview since arriving at death row at the Ellis Unit of the Texas Depart ment of Corrections 18 months ago, said during the weekend that he was having problems getting information from his court- appointed attorneys, so he has be gun delving into the law himself. “People who depend on their lawyers can often get shafted,” he said. “If you have to depend on a ‘Lovers’ presented tonight The Aggie Players will present the comedy, “Lovers and Other Strangers,” tonight at 7:30 in the Rudder Forum.

State Senate turns down wills on IRANCt jIES: : Webb ; didn’t worts ivado hegi gator that es. »r bit SwM headed* irch, theal and ren^- ent compl' 1 ] icials not * United Press International theain i AUSTIN — The Senate refused it got intoll I Monday to consider a bill that would have provided for all prop erty of a husband or wife who died in Texas without a will to be inher ited by the spouse. Current state law provides that insuch cases, one-half the proper ty belonging to the deceased goes (1; tO me surviving spouse, and the ! other half to the children. Sen. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin, said the probate section of the | State Bar had proposed the change, but it ran into strong opposition in the Senate. Dog- gett’s motion to have it debated failed 11-20, receiving only half the 21 votes needed for considera tion. Sen. Tati Santiesteban, D-El Paso, lead the opposition to the bill, arguing the proposal would allow a surviving spouse “to do whatever he wants with the prop erty that for years and years has belonged to the children.” “With your bill, a husband can die and his wife can remarry some body else who can influence her to sell the property, and the surviv ing minor children will he left with nothing,” Santiesteban said. Sen. E.L. Short, D-Tahoka, suggested Doggett’s bill was an attempt by lawyers to force all Texans to have written wills. b 5« S N OS o a Free Extra ■ Thick Crust!

I go through every case, read every opinion to see if there’s something there I can use in my case.” Dugas, 34, is on death row for the 1978 death of Jason Phillips of Woodward, Okla. Murder charges still are pending against him in the deaths of four other members of the Bishop Phillips family. He said he currently is waiting for his lawyer to file an appeal of his 1979 conviction. Last week, he filed a writ of mandamus to force Jefferson County officials to either drop the four other murder charges or bring him to trial. “They’re holding them over my head in case I get off on appeal. ” The Phillips, including three Oklahoma family members visit ing during the Fourth of July weekend, were abducted from a farmhome outside Winnie, Texas, bound, shot in the head and buried in a mass grave 10 miles away. Dugas had been married to Phillips’ daughter, Mary. Also convicted in the case was Linda May Burnett, 33, of Neder land, Dugas’ lover. He claimed he only intended to scare the family but Burnett forced him to kill the child while she shot the four other people. Burnett claimed she was an innocent pawn in Dugas’ attempts to get revenge on his for mer in-laws. In the meantime, he is trying to learn law and helping fellow in mates with their legal problems. He estimated about half of the death row inmates study law and most are unhappy with their attor neys, particularly those who fought charges with court- appointed attorneys. During his trial, Dugas claimed he was drugged and beaten while in the Chambers County Jail, and his confession was coerced. He filed a nearly $2.1 million civil rights lawsuit last July against five law enforcement officers in Cham bers and Jefferson counties. He contends he was denied his civil rights and signed a confession “under great fear for his life.” He said three of those named in the suit punched him in the sto mach, elbowed his head and neck and “slapped me up the side of the head” during his interrogation.
