■jgThunderstorms, cool tempera

to spend time at the state’s most pop-

Service said.
j At Mustang Island State Park, un-

campers who remained after Sun
day’s showers, prompting officials to
refund their camping fees.
“The weather is rainy and nasty,”
said Angela Crummett of the Gal
veston County Sheriffs office. “It’s a
drizzly mess. It looks like the kind of
day everyone should be home in
bed.
^ “It’s not a really good day for a
hsirbeque, like I had planned today.
The streets are dead, like an early
Sunday morning.”
At Galveston’s Hotel Galvez a
spokeswoman said the rain and wind
had a relatively small effect on the
number of guests.
“We have done very well over the
weekend, considering the weather,”
said Holly Cupp, a hotel supervisor.
I “We were booked to capacity Satur-

United Press International
NEW ORLEANS — In the month
the World’s Fair has been under the
rein of the independent committee
created to straighten out its sagging
Finances, the expo has been unable
to shave spending to fall within its
weekly income.
The seven-member committee
four weeks ago told fdir President
Peter Spurney to slash weekly ex
penditures almost in half to some
$2.1 million.
Spurney cut entertainment, laid
off employees, implemented a
charge to ride the previously free
monorail and asked leaseholders to
accept late rent payments.
Weekly expenses, however, con
tinue to run more than $500,000
above the budget set by the commit
tee.
“If we get to budget Nov. 1, it
won’t do any good,” committee
member Jim Landis told Spurney at
the group’s meeting last week.
“We’ve got to do it now. These aren’t
goals, they are authorized expendi
tures.”
Landis said he would refuse to
sign checks that exceed the weekly
budget.
* Lee Randall, chief financial advi
sor to the fair, blamed some of the
fair’s troubles on a $350,000 pay-

pools, so many people stayed around
the hotel.
“We had a few cancellations for
Saturday and Saturday night and
Sunday, but had quite a few walk-ins,
in spite of it all.”
In land-locked areas, Sunday’s
rains did not appear to discourage
Texans from many lakes and amuse
ment parks on Monday.
“We were expecting about 7,000
people for the holiday,” said Bruce
Neal, spokesman for Six Flags Over
Texas in Arlington. “But that num
ber was eclipsed by noon Monday.
The weather hasn’t really had any
effect on our business. We had a ca
pacity crowd Sunday night, despite
the heavy rain.”
Officials at the largest lake in the
Panhandle reported brisk business.
“It’s calm and almost usable,” said
Sgt. Bob Smith of the Hutchinson
County Sheriffs office. “It rained all
day Sunday, but this looks like an or
dinary holiday. It’s sunny and
warm.”
One exception was Lake Grape
vine in north Texas, where a spokes
man for the U.S. Army Corps of En
gineers said crowds were only about
half the size of last year’s throngs.
He suggested that the death ear
lier this summer of a 3-year old Ir
ving boy may have accounted for the
low turnout. The boy died of a rare
brain disease medical authorities say
he contracted while swimming in
Lake Grapevine’s depleted, stagnant
water.

merit to an escrow account for taxes
the expo claims are not yet due.
The escrow money must total
some $2 million by Sept. 20 to pay
sales taxes on bulk sales of fair tick
ets sold before opening day. The
expo has not paid the taxes, claiming
they were not due until Aug. 31, the
deadline for return of the bulk-rate
tickets.
“That $350,000 in taxes distorts
the weekly budget average,” Randall
said. “Take it off and the fair only
exceeds its weekly budget by
$100,000.
The accountant said another fac
tor to balloon fair weekly expenses
are catchup payments, such as the
expo’s utility bill which was several
months overdue.
Other deferred bills — such as for
telephones — are haunting the com
mittee, which was formed July 12
when state officials discovered the
fair was not paying debts.
