Houston Post enters ‘new era’ United Pres* HOUSTON — Under its new ownership, The Houston Post Monday takes on a fresh look as it enters what its editors call M a new era.” “You are going to see a new look, but you will also see a lot more in The Post than you have in the past,” said Peter O’Sulli van, the new editor-in-chief. “This begins a new era for The Post. A newspaper is a living entity. It changes constantly with day-to-day or year-to-year events,” he said. “This is a change for The Post and we think it will revitalize it in a lot of ways.” In October, it was announced that the Toronto Sun planned to purchase The Post for $100 mil lion in cash, plus the value of the paper’s operating capital. Since 1924, The Post has been owned by the Hobby family, including the family’s matriach Oveta Culp Hobby and Texas Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby. The sale to the Canadian firm was completed Friday in Washington, D.C. The Toronto Sun, which publishes three newspapers in Canada, was founded 12 years ago by several former employees of the now- defunct Toronto Telegram. One change that paper’s 430,000-plus subscribers will immediately notice is the front page layout and the use of more color pictures on all the section fronts. The editorial page, which will be headed by col umnist Lynn Ashby, will move from an inside page and the sec tion will be expanded. Photographers have been in structed to listen to the police scanner radio and take all pic tures in black and white as well as color. “We are definately thinking color in pictures and copy,” said veteran city desk reporter Juan Palomo. Creighton said he did not anticipate a newspaper war be tween The Post and its chief competitor the Houston Chro nicle. “I think there is plenty of room for two newspapers in Houston,” Creighton said. O’Sullivan said since the pur chase was announced, the new owners have received more than a thousand unsolicited letters from readers telling their likes and dislikes and offering sug gestions for improvement.

Eight U.S Marines were kil led in Lebanon Sunday, and Bush told reporters the United States is holoing Syria responsi ble for the deaths. “We are holding them direct ly responsible for firing on re connaissance aircraft over Leba non — and not Syrian territory,” Bush said. “That is simply un acceptable international be havior.” Bush, who was in Houston to attend a GOP fundraiser for the Harris County Republican Par ty, said the aggressive retaliation by the United States against Syria was not part of a secret pact between the United States and Israel, despite rumors to that effect. Although the United States watched Syria for several years. Bush said Sunday’s shelling by Syria was the first direct attact on U.S. forces, but he said he was optimistic for peace. “This makes it extraordinari ly difficult to deal with such a radical force — in this instance, Syria — who is backing the most extreme elements,” he said. However, Bush said the ob jective in Lebanon will remain the same — To get all foreign forces out of Lebanon and have Lebanon at peace.” “America will not be driven out of the peace keeping mission. Terrorists acts backed by ex tremists will not alter the foreign policy of the United Stales. “I think for too long in this coun try we’ve condoned things that we knew in our hearts we should have condemned," Bush said. “but we never truly forgot, we never truly lost sight of the values that made America great. All around us today, we see Americans once again rallying around those values, speaking up for what they believe.” Nine-hundred Republicans paid $ 150 each to hear Bush and other high-ranking Texas Re publicans, such as Sen. John Tower and Congressmen Bill Archer, Ron Paul, Jack Fields and Phil Gramm.
