Navy port
Texas finalist for base
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Texas offi
cials were confident Wednesday that
at least one and perhaps two Texas
cities would be among'the Navy’s fi
nalists for location of a proposed
new battleship base.
After officials met with Navy Sec
retary John Lehman, congressional
sources said they expected Corpus
Christi and maybe the Houston-Gal-
veston area to be on a honed-down
list taken from the 16 cities that have
bid for the new base.
Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas, called
a news conference Thursday at
which he is expected to release the
list.
After a 45-minute meeting in
Gramm’s office that also included
Gov. Mark White, Lt. Gov. Bill
Hobby, Texas House Speaker Gib
Lewis and U.S. Sen. Lloyd Bentsen,
Lehman said he was “confident that
Texans want the Navy as part of
their community.”
Seven Texas Gulf Coast cities are
vying with nine cities in four other
Gulf Coast states for the proposed
new base.
“The decision will not be politi
cal,” Lehman said. “Dollar costs will
determine the outcome of the deci
sion.”
Hobby said the state has pledged
up to $25 million for road construc
tion and education facilities for the
base.
Lewis said he had met Wednesday
morning with former Texas legis
lator and now Assistant Navy Secre
tary Chase Untermeyer.
“He wouldn’t tell me what site had
been selected or who all was in the
running,” Lewis said. “He said that
Texas would certainly not be disap
pointed with the short list, so that
gives us quite a bit of encourage
ment.”
Gramm said, “We’ve been mar
ried to the military for a long time in
Texas, and it’s been a long and
happy marriage.”
Shotgun blast victim
wins $6.13 million suit
Associated Press
AUSTIN — A man wounded in
the leg by a blast from a Spanish-
made shotgun, which fired even
though it was on safety and no one
touched the trigger, won a $6.13
million judgment Wednesday in the
Texas Supreme Court.
Clifford Wayne King was struck
in the left shin, with the blast exiting
from his upper calf.
King, claiming he had suffered
some permanent loss of the use of
his left foot, sued the manufacturer,
Armas Erbi S. Coop, of Spain; Inter
national Armament Corp., a Dela
ware firm that imported and distrib
uted the 12-gauge shotgun; and
Oshman’s Sporting Goods Co.,
Texas, Inc., the retail seller in Hous
ton.
King, according to court records.
had set up cans for target practice at
a relative’s farm in Marlin in Novem
ber 1979 and was walking toward his
stepfather, who was inspecting the
“Star Gauge” shotgun, when it dis
charged.
The trial court awarded King
$234,053 actual damages against
Oshman’s and Interarms; $1.5 mil
lion punitive damages against Inter
arms; and $4.4 million punitive
damages against Armas Erbi, which
made no appearance at the trial.
Justice James Wallace of the Su
preme Court noted that of 700 shot
guns received by Interarms in two
shipments, 150 were rejected for
“cosmetic” defects, and of the re
maining 550, only two of every 25
were internally inspected for safety
and mechanical defects.
