Our goal case in ’ , ' is “explosiif VS'ood reft self at an ng, “that hagra’s) was | is to help beat Gramm. Kubiak, a 14-year veteran of the Texas House, and John Henry Faulk, a radio humorist who was blacklisted during the McCarthy era, were considered the most serious candidates. “I think it’s going to be a very strong Democratic effort and 1 think a statewide effort,” said Democratic Agriculture Com missioner Jim Hightower. “I suspect we’ll do some campaign ing down there and make so nr calls. As long as Faulk stays 1 the race I’ll support both >f them.” “Gov. White intends to \ork actively for the election d a Democrat in that race, bujdoes not want to get involved im con test among competing demo crats,“said Ann Arnold, White’s press secretary. Comptroller Bob Bullock echoed that sentiment “1 will go to the disuct if they ask me to,” Bullock sak “I think it is very important tckeep Phil Gramm out of Congess.” Neither Kubiak nor Faulk have openly solicitd the sup port of prominent democrats. “\e want to make this, for the firsdme in the history of Texas, an ‘lection in which there are se<ral good Democrats run- nrg for office against a com- rpn opponent and they don't <it each other to pieces,” Faulk aid. However, Land Commission er Garry Mauro said he en dorsed Kubiak. The two w ; ere opponents in the Democratic primary for l.and Commission and Kubiak eventually endorsed Mauro in the runoff contest. Mauro said he had Gramm as an economics professor while a sophomore at Texas A&M. “Even as a 21 -year-old Aggie I recognized Gramm’s economics for what they are,” he said. “If you spent more than you bring in you have deficits.” Gramm’s opponents are hop ing the number of candidates in the race — 1 1 in all — will force the contest into a runoff. In that event a Democrat would have additional time to chip away at Gramm’s lead. Both Kubiak and Faulk have indicated they would support the other in a runoff against Gramm.

Only 10 or 20 percent of the women who want test tube babies become pregnant, the doctors said. Couples will be counseled to make sure their hopes are not too high. The UT medical school in San Antonio has, in fact, been “drag ging its feet” for two years on making test tube babies until the success rate rose above 10 per cent, said Dr. Carl Pauerstein, chairman of the school’s obstet rics and gynecology depart ment. “We don’t know very well what the success rate of pre gnancy is in normal couples,” Asch said. “It may be just 10 or 20 percent. We may he reaching the top success rate possible for human beings.” “But the other side of the coin is zero,” Pauerstein said. “These are people who have no hope of fertility.” Ihiell n ' force I respf e. is involved task and was call at then lales said, no charges ie officer,' would he the acciden! i divisions rent. ies of th e 1 not immeij OVIIN’ATYA! izza Delivery Now /Vloccasi" 19* Pfea -Hut.
