) MOUNT PLEASANT—The
sister of convicted murderer
Calvin Loyd Padgett Wednes
day begged jurors to spare her
brother and allow him to spend
‘the remainder of his life in
prison.
1 “I beg that they would please
let him live,” said Jo Ann Glassco
of Dallas.
1 Padgett was convicted Tues
day of capital murder in the May
|0,1982, shooting death of Ho
ward Leroy McClaflin, one of
hree pizza restaurant em
ployees killed during an appa
rent robbery.
Padgett’s sister and step-
nbther, Betty Bearden of Gar-
atid, testified Wednesday
Horning before jurors retired
for deliberations on whether to
give Padgett the death penalty
or life in prison.
District Attorney Charles Mac
Cobb argued that Padgett mur
dered McClaflin in cold blood,
and he told jurors a decision to
send him to the death chamber
would be “what is right.”
Cobb reminded jurors of tes
timony from Dr. Clay Griffith,
who Tuesday said a person with
Padget’s background could not
be rehabilitated.
“My opinion would be that he
would be a continuing threat to
society no matter where he was
or where he was locked up,”
Griffith said.

Educators seeking more pay
Teacher evaluation tests OK’d
United Press International
AUSTIN — Texas classroom
teachers are willing to subject
themselves to competency test
ing if it means higher salaries,
the president of the state’s
largest teacher organization said
Wednesday.
Testifying before the Select
Committee on Education, Dale
Young, president of the Texas
State Teachers Association, said
every major study of education
shows Texas teachers are under
paid.
Young conceded that Texas
has incompetent teachers who
should be weeded out, but he
said teachers’ pay should also be
raised at the same time com
petency testing is implemented.
“I’m not suggesting that in
creasing all teachers’ salaries
across the board is the only thing
we need to to to assure that qual
ity teaching is taking place in our
schools,” he said.
But Young said teachers “are
willing to deal” with competency
testing if it means their pay will
be upgraded.
“Teachers are troubled not
only about their salaries but also
about their loss of status, the
bureaucratic pressure and nega
tive public image and the lack of
recognition and reward,” he
said.
And he recommended that
teaching training programs in
Texas colleges and universities
be expanded from four to five
years to set up a one-year intern
ship similar to what is required
of physicians.
Public wants
taxless shops
to stay open
don’t want to cause him any
problems because of who I was
married to.”
U S. Attorney John Volz con
firmed Walker was the subject of
a federal investigation. Howev
er, Volz said there was no evi
dence Lee knew of Walker’s
alleged activities.
The sheriff was cooperating
with the inquiry, he said.
Walker, who operates a New
Orleans restaurant, was the
second person to come under in
vestigation for allegedly deceiv
ing the smugglers into thinking
he could help them avoid
trouble.
Former Metairie banker AJ.
Graffagnino admitted telling
them he could bribe federal pro
secutors and a federal judge to
have charges dismissed in con
nection with the burning of the
cargo vessel Nooderkroon off
Breton Sound.
Gaffagnino pleaded guilty to
obstruction of justice.
United Press International
EL PASO — U. S. Customs
officials have been swamped
with letters opposing a proposal
to shut down duty-free shops
along the Mexican and Cana
dian borders.
Officials said more than 400
letters have been received in
Washington, D.C., nearly all
asking that the duty-free shops
be permitted to remain open.
The stores offer products to
people who are leaving the Un
ited States and therefore are not
required to pay duties or taxes.
Cigarettes and liquor are popu
lar items.
Customs officials said they
fear the products are taken into
Mexico and Canada and then
smuggled back into the United
States and resold without taxes
ever having been paid.
LJ. S. merchants in border
areas such as El Paso complain
that the duty-free stores are un
fair competition.
In a duty-free store, for ex
ample, a bottle of American
bourbon is offered for $5,
although the item normally re
tails for $13. A $260 car stereo
sells for $136.
There are six duty-free stores
in El Paso, employing fewer
than 100 employees. The stores
are located in communities
across the U.S.-Mexico border
and also along the border with
Canada.
A Customs proposal to abol
ish all the shops was one of four
options offered for public com
ment. The other options are:
— Abolish the 43 shops on the
Canadian border and the 33
shops on the Mexican border
while leaving the 44 shops in in
ternational airports.
— Leave only those shops
where the customers have to
leave the country after their
purchases.
— Tighten U. S. Customs
control over the shops.
Ruben Saenz, chief inspector
for U. S. Customs in El Paso, said
there is no evidence that large
quantities of duty-free goods are
being smuggled back into El
Paso.
Owners of the duty-free
shops contend that laws already
exist to stop smuggling, and that
the stores provide jobs, use local
services and pay taxes on the
U.S. side of the border.
