quencfiKThe College Station School
nrd met Monday night in a
Bcial meeting to discuss au-
girization of 11 additional per
sonnel for the 1983-84 school
9 r>
■ The board recommended
A Bt College Station Indepen
dent School District Superinten-
Bit H. R. Burnett be given au-
, Iferization to employ the same
a ' tl ' number of personnel for the
1982-83 school year and up to
11 instructional personnel for
l’s” isahB
the 1983-84 school year.
Other items on the agenda
were pedestrian signals for
Holik Street and awarding the
bid for the A&M Consolidated
Junior High paving project.
The City of College Station
recommended that automatical
ly time controlled and/or manu
ally operated signals and 20
mph speed limit signs be instal
led on Holik Street for the safety
of students.
The estimated cost of this
project is between $3,500 and
$4,000 with the school district
not to pay more than half of the
total cost.
The board accepted the re
commendation with an amend
ment to discuss the future aban
donment of Holik Street by the
city so the school district could
take over.
The paving project was
awarded to Diamond Energy for
the amount of $47,540.74.
Diamond Energy was the second
lowest bidder, but because of an
error in tabulation the first
lowest bidder, Benbow-Coen,
withdrew their bid.

About 250 officers with black
tape across their badges were
among the crowd of 700 people
who packed the First United
Methodist Church and stood
outside in the humid afternoon
to pay their last respects.
State Medical Examiner Dr.
Fahmy Malak expected to con
firm with dental records Mon
day that the charred body re
moved from the bunker after
the shootout Friday night was
Kahl’s. He said earlier he is
“quite certain” the man is Kahl.
Kahl, 63, died of a gunshot
wound just above his right ear,
and Malak said the bullet came
from a .44-caliber Magnum
handgun — the type carried by
Matthews.
Matthews was hit twice, Malak
said. A blast from a shotgun was
stopped by his bulletproof vest,
but the rifle bullet tore through
his left arm and into his chest
just an inch from the vest, he
said.
Officers outside opened fire
as soon as they heard shooting
inside the bunker. Reports have
differed on whether Matthews
ran from the house under his
own power or had to be dragged
to safety.
He died three hours later at a
hospital in Walnut Ridge, the
town where he had lived all his
life.

slayings of two federal marshals
in North Dakota. A citizen who
apparently had seen Kahl’s pic
ture on an FBI wanted poster
reported Kahl was in northeast
Arkansas last week.
The couple who built the con
crete bunker in the side of a hill
— Leonard and Norma Ginter
— were arrested just before the
shootout and later charged with
capital murder in Matthews’
death. They also face federal
charges of harboring a fugitive.
“They’re just common, old
death
ordinary folks,” said Bill Wade,
who owns the property. “Man
alive, they’re the finest people in
the world.”
Wade said he and the Ginters
shared Kahl’s opposition to fed
eral income tax but were not
members of Posse Comitatus.
“Leonard was a good student
of the Bible,” Wade said.
Eight thousand rounds of
ammunition stored in the Gin
ters’ home exploded when
police tear gas burst into flames.
