Battle UPS service OK'd in Texas Associated Press AUSTIN — After a 19-year bat tle, the Texas Railroad Commission on Monday authorized United Par cel Service to deliver packages be tween Texas cities. But because of an anticipated court challenge, UPS’ familiar fleet of brown trucks probably won’t be making intrastate deliveries for a while, according to a company law yer. UPS long has been allowed to make shipments to and from other states, and some deliveries within Texas cities. But a 1931 state law requiring package deliverers to operate on scheduled and regular routes barred UPS from Texas intercity service. The Connecticut-based company offers on-demand, non-scheduled service. The order signed Monday by Commissioners Buddy Temple and Mack Wallace said UPS “proved that the services of existing carriers were inadequate.” Commissioner Jim Nugent, dis senting, said “The evidence in this case demonstrates the applicant does not intend to provide a service in accordance with present laws and regulations of die commission.” UPS’ application was challenged by Tex-Pack Express, a group of Texas companies. Tex-Pack lawyer Timothy Her man of Austin said his client would ask for a rehearing and then go to court. “We’ll do essentially what UPS did when they were ruled against,” he said. “We take the position the stat ute as interpreted and enforced by the commission hasn’t undergone any change.” The Texas Supreme Court never has ruled on the merits of the case. Tex-Pack’s battle against UPS stretches back as long as UPS’ re quest. The Texas companies, in press releases, have called UPS the “greedy brown giant” and criticized the company as “a giant, automated out-of-state corporation owned by Easterners.” “Texas is just an awful lot differ ent from Massachusetts or some place,” Tex-Pack spokesman Jake Westfall of Fort Worth said last year when it looked as if the commission was leaning toward approval of UPS’ request. “There’s a long bunch of miles out there between towns in West Texas. They demand regular routes and schedules.” Bill to give teachers more power to punish Associated Press AUSTIN — Teachers would be able to act faster and tougher against students who bring firearms, drugs or alcohol to school under bills intro duced Monday in tne Legislature. “The primary responsibility of a teacher is to teach — not to police troubled students,” said Rep. Bill Haley, D-Center, sponsor of the oill in the House. “One troubled student shouldn’t disrupt the learning process of other students who want to learn.” The bill’s Senate sponsor, Sen. Hector Uribe, D-Brownsville, said the measure would give “teachers and school administrators broader authority to maintain discipline in our classrooms.” Currently, a student must be declared “incorrigible” and a danger to the school before the student can be removed from school. Haley said under the new measure, a teacher can send a disruptive stu dent to the principal, who in turn may suspend the student or send him to an alternative education program. Uribe said currently the only cause for immediate expulsion is an assault on a teacher while at school. CUSTOM SOUNDS Westgate Center Wellborn Road 846-5803 Visa, MasterCard, Am.
