AUSTIN — Democrat-
turned-Republican Phil
Gramm owes an apology to
Texas members of the GOP
for saying the only lifelong
Republicans he knows of are
dead, according to Houston
oilman Michel Halbouty.
Gramm, a U.S. Senate can
didate, made the remark in
response to one of his com
petitor’s campaign advertise
ments.
In his ads, candidate Rob
Mossbacher refers to himself
as a “lifelong Republican.”
Halbouty, a Houston oil
man who serves on
Mossbacher’s steering com
mittee and also is a member
of President Reagan’s re-elec
tion finance committee, said
that “as a lifelong, living Re
publican he was disappointed
and insulted” by Gramm’s re
marks.
“Our party welcomes con
verts to its ranks and we cer
tainly welcome — and need
— Phil Gramm,” Halbouty
said, “but we should not toler
ate such negativism toward
the people who built this
party and remain dedicated
to its conservative principles.”
Prosecution rests in Jones trial
United Press International
GEORGETOWN — Prosecu
tors rested their case Tuesday
against murder defendant Gen-
ene Jones, accusing the nurse of
killing a baby girl as part of a
scheme to start a pediatric in
tensive care unit in a tiny coun
try hospital.
After a one-day break
Wednesday, the defense
planned to begin presenting ev
idence Thursday. Defense law
yers refused to say whether
Jones would testify.
Forty-four witnesses testified
over 14 days against Jones, a 33-
year-old mother of two charged
with killing 15-month-old Chel
sea McClellan by injecting her
with a powerful paralyzing
Jury debates death sentence
for convicted killer Moreno
United Press International
RICHMOND — Prosecutors
Tuesday asked a jury to impose
a death sentence on Eliseo
Moreno who was convicted of
killing a state trooper in what
police say was a six-killing ram
page triggered by marital prob
lems.
Moreno, 25, was convicted
Monday of capital murder in
the shooting of Trooper Russell
Lynn Boyd, 25. He also is
charged with five other killings
in Hempstead and College Sta
tion on Oct. 11 but awaits trial
I in those cases.
In order to impose the death
sentence, the jury had to decide
Moreno acted deliberately and
constituted a continuing threat
to society. The only alternative
sentence was life in prison.
Among witnesses testifying in
support of the death penalty for
Moreno were managers of two
Bryan stores. They told jurors
Moreno bought two handguns
from them Oct. 11, the day he
killed Boyd north of Hemp
stead.
Testimony showed Moreno
bought .25 and .22 caliber pis
tols and that a .357 pistol —later
identified as the gun that killed
Boyd — was stolen from a gun
cabinet in one of the stores the
morning of the killings.
Another prosecution witness
was Raymond Reyna of Donna,
the ex-husband of Moreno’s es
tranged wife Blanca, who testi
fied Moreno assaulted him last
summer in the parking lot of a
grocery store.

Hightower apologizes to Krueger
for mailing of unauthorized letter
United Press International
AUSTIN — Agriculture
Commissioner Jim Hightower
apologized Tuesday to U.S.
Senate candidate Bob Krueger
because a letter bearing his sig
nature and criticizing Krueger
was mailed without his authori
zation by another candidate,
Lloyd Doggett.
In the letter of apology,
Hightower called the incident
“an extremely unfortunate mix-
up.” Hightower has endorsed
Doggett, an Austin state sen
ator.
“I want you to know that crit
icisms in the letter do not come
from me and I regret that my
name is attached to them,”
Hightower said. “I hold you in
high personal regard, and I
never would have signed such a
letter had I seen it in advance.”
Doggett was not immediately
available for comment.
In the unauthorized letter,
which apparently wag drafted
by Doggett’s campaign workers,
Hightower purportedly blasts
Krueger for voting against jobs
bills, food stamps, day care cen
ters and heating assistance for
the elderly.
The letter also is critical of
Senate candidates Kent Hance
and Phil Gramm.
At a Capitol news confer-
ence, Krueger said the incident
was one in a series of misrepre
sentations by Doggett.
“I guess I’ve been used to
Lloyd Doggett misrepresenting
me for a long time,” Krueger
said, “it looks now like he has
not stopped at misrepresenting
the people who are seeking the
same office he is.”
Krueger said the unauthor
ized letter must have been
mailed to “thousands of Tex
ans” because he even received
one at his New Braunfels home.
After Krueger’s news confer
ence, Hightower said that
though he supports Doggett, he
also seeks party unity.

drug at pediatrician Kathleen
Holland’s clinic on Sept. 17,
1982.
She also has been charged
with injuring six other children
in Kerrville, where she worked
for pediatrician Dr. Kathleen
Holland for five weeks in 1982.
Those six children survived.
The physician whose suspi
cions led to an investigation of
nurse Genene Jones testified
Tuesday there was enough
muscle relaxant missing from
the clinic where Jones worked
to paralyze four adult men.
Dr. Frank Bradley, an anes
thesiologist at Sid Peterson Hos
pital in Kerrville, said what was
missing — one vial plus five-
sixths of another vial of the
drug Anectine — would have
been plenty to paralyze and
stop the breathing of at least six
children.
Previous witnesses testified
three bottles of Anectine were
ordered for the clinic. One was
never opened, another disap
peared and was never ac
counted for, and the third had
been depleted of five-sixths of
its contents, then refilled with a
saltwater solution.
“That is enough Anectine to
paralyze four average-size men,
150 to 160 pounds,” Bradley
testified.
Bradley said the jerky body
movements he observed in a
child brought into the hospital
emergency room on Sept. 23,
1982, could only have occurred
in someone recovering from a
brief paralysis caused by a dose
of the drug.
“This child exhibited the
same type phenomenon we see
when we give Anectine in the
operating room,” Bradley said.
“There is not another physical
phenomenon I’m aware of (that
would cause the symptoms.) I
don’t know of anything else that
could mimic that.”
The child Bradley observ
was 5-month-old Rolinda Ru
the last of several patients
Holland who suddenly stopp 1
breathing and displayed s
zure-like symptoms shortly
ter being left alone with Jon?
Ghelsea had died a week earlil
Bradley said he contact
hospital authorities the sav.
day he saw Rolinda.
Blanca, who at that time was es-.
tranged from Reyna.
Reyna said Moreno knocked
him down and repeatedly hit
him in the face with a can of
peanuts. The injury required
stitches, he said.
Moreno also is charged with
the Oct. 11 killing of two of his
in-laws, Juan Garza, 30, and his
wife, Esther, 31, in their College
Station apartment after a day
long argument over Blanca.
He also is charged with kill
ing three other people the same
day — Ann Bennatt, 70, her
brother, James, 71, and neigh
bor Allie Wilkins, 79 — at the
Bennatt’s house in Hempstead.
Police charge Moreno sought
help in fleeing from the police
T
had warned and the Bennatts and Wilkins
away from did not act quickly enough.
