Gramm will not
run for Senate
United Press Internationa]
DALLAS — Texas congress
man Phil Gramm, criticized by
the party faithful for helping
write the Reagan administra
tion’s economic program, says
he will stay in the Democratic
party and seek re-election.
His announcement Sunday
at a fund-raising event put to
rest reports he might seek a
Senate seat.
“I’d love to run for the Senate
but there is a job to be done
where I am,’’ said Gramm, D-
Texas. He was referring to the
new economic proposals whose
fate in his opinion will be de
cided in the House.
About 1,100 persons, includ
ing many Republicans,
attended the fund-raising event
and helped raise more than
$100,000.
Gramm was confident the
Reagan administration will be
able to balance the budget by
1984 because of its determina
tion to reduce government
spending.
“We’ve shut down the expan
sion of government,” he said. If
enough conservatives win dur
ing next year’s elections,
Gramm said, “the pro-spending
element will be out of power for
the rest of the century.”
Saying he would never vote
on the basis of partisanship,
Gramm declared: “The people
didn’t elect me to go to
Washington to do what (Speak
er) Tip O’Neill and (Majority
Leader) Jim Wright tell me to
do. They sent me to defeat
those boys and we’ve done it.”
Among those who helped
organize the event were com
puter millionaire H. Ross
Perot, First Baptist Church
Pastor W.A. Criswell, and Gill
Clements, son of Gov. Bill Cle
ments.
Texas State Fair readyinj
for Oct. 9 opening date
United Press International
DALLAS — Big Tex, the 52-
foot cowboy that has become an
integral part and symbol of the
state fair held in Dallas will be 30
years old at this year’s opening of
the nation’s largest state fair.
It may be hard to believe the
huge figure with the Western
slant began as a Main Street Santa
in Kerens, but it’s true.
Big Tex joined the Fair in 1952,
trading in his jinglebell hat for a
tall sombrero that was later re
placed by a 10-gallon hat. Cosme
tic surgery the next year straight
ened his nose, corrected his wink
and made him to talk.
Since then, Big Tex has greeted
fairgoers and kept them up to date
with each year’s festivities.
This year’s 17-day extravaganza
opens Oct. 9 with the theme
“Going Places, Doing Things.”
Fairgoers will be able to find
everything from Ronald Reagan’s
favorite candies to Elsie, Amer
ica’s favorite cow, in the exhibit
buildings at Fair Park.
