United Press International FORT WORTH — An interna- nally known Soviet pianist, who ^appeared Sept. 3 while on a Buropean tour, plans to defect to |lie United States, said a Fort /orth family which plans to spon- him. | “He (Alexander Toradze) said he basically had no choice because il was impossible for him to con- |nue to work or conduct his pro- (ssional and artistic life” under jliviet controls, said Mary Byrne, lose family befriended Toradze luring his U.S. visits. PShe said Toradze, 31, who won the silver medal in the 1977 Van libumcompetion in Fort Worth, 'as traveling from Italy to Spain iith the Soviet broadcasting sys tem orchestra when he dis appeared. The Soviet Embassy in Madrid has refused comment on Toradze’s disappearance, but Mrs. Byrne said Toradze had requested a per manent refugee visa to the United States, and her family had agreed to host him during the settlement period. During his visits to the United States, “We became close friends and he became almost a part of our family,” she said. “He is very peo ple oriented, and at the same time, when he works, he works with tremendous seriousness.” In 1978 and 1979, Toradze toured the United States with the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra and was widely acclaimed as a bril liant young Soviet star, she said. pnuaiinuuj ■ TUESDAY DISC NITC H|i FRIDAY STUDENT DISC I D CINEMA HI* 8 00- 10:00 "NIGHTMARES” (R) '•NATIONAL 7,b - 3X LAMPOON VACATION" (R) 7 30-9 40 “HERCULES” (PG) CINEMA III Post Oak Mail J500Jiarv«^l«Bd > 764jB616|__ 7:30-9 30 “STAYING ALIUE”(PG) ‘STRANGE BREW” (PG) ft •7:45-9.45 S; RISKY BUSINESS” (R) >> 21 BUCKS BUYS A LOT OF BUBGERS, BEER, illage Of our village uctible com ommittee >pt- | J Yes!

CALL 779-2830 NOW 1313 Briarcrest Drive, Bryan, Texas United Press International WASHINGTON — The House Tuesday approved an amendment that would authorize up to $500 in federal funds to educate each illegal alien schoolchild enrolled in public schools. House Majority Leader Jim Wright and Rep. Kika de la Garza, both D-Texas, offered the amend ment to a bill to reauthorize sever al programs to aid the physically and mentally handicapped. The amendment, which passed on a voice vote, came as the House restored $1.6 billion in 1981 social program and education cuts by voting to extend and add funds for the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. They said the funding would help lessen the impact of a recent Supreme Court ruling mandating free education for children of illeg al aliens, especially in states such as New York, Florida, California and Ohio that have “considerable numbers” of illegal alien school- children. Opponents said the issue should be dealt with under cur rent legislation or under immigra tion reform legislation pending before Congress. “This is a temporary anesthetic that misdirects our attention from a time bomb,” said Rep. Henry Hyde, R-Ill. The measure supported by Gov. Mark White and congress men from several states provided only one-fifth of the financial bur den of educating the children of illegal aliens, supporters said. “Many of the school districts that have been impacted are the poorest of the poor and this is one way to assist them,” de la Garza said.
