Gramm forgoes
taking political trip
to Latin America
Associated Press
AUSTIN — U.S. Sen. Phil
Gramm said Tuesday he decided
against visiting Central America
vvnile Texas National Guard troops
are in Honduras because such a trip
might look, too political.
But Gramm, R-Texas, declined to
criticize Democratic Gov. Mark
White’s current visit to guard troops
training in Honduras.
“I thought about going,” Gramm
said. “In fact, I looked into it before
the governor had decided to make
the trip.
ing the regular U.S. Army and Hon
duran troops.
White arrived in Honduras on
Monday and Tuesday toured the
Texas guard’s camp.
“I would have rather the exercise
be in Brazil, but on the other hand
it’s the kind of training that we need
if we are going to integrate the
guard and the reserves into the over
all military establishment of the
country,” he said.
“But I decided against it. I
thought that with the guard there it
just might look political if I did it.
I’m sure the governor looked at it
and made a decision he wanted to do
it. I certainly don’t criticize that deci
sion.”
“That’s what we are committed to,
because we don’t have the money for
a Standing army the size we need to
keep the peace,” said the freshman
senator.
White and all Texans have a spe
cial interest in Central American af
fairs, said Gramm, a member of the
Senate Armed Services Committee.
Gramm was in Austin for a speech
to a joint session of the Legislature.
Afterward, he told reporters he
wasn’t thrilled by the decision to
.send the troops to the troubled re
gion, where the Texans are playing
the aggressors in war games involv-
“I am concerned if El Salvador
goes communist and becomes a stag
ing area against Mexico that we are
going to have millions of political
refugees coming across our south
ern border,” he said. “And they’re
not going to Massachusetts. They’re
coming into Texas.”
‘Unopposed’ candidate
loses school board election
Associated Press
EL PASO — Marc Goulait found
it hard to believe that he’d lost an
election for a seat on a local school
board, especially since he thought he
was running unopposed.
“We didn’t campaign,” Goulait
said Monday after learning the
Ysleta Independent School District
board seat he had sought in Satur
day’s election had been won by an
other man. “A lot of people who
would have voted for me didn’t
come out because I was unopposed.”
Dave Overvold, a civil engineer
with the U.S. Bureau of Reclama
tion, was declared the victor in the
race even though he had withdrawn
from the contest in March.
Overvold mailed a letter March 20
to school district officials saying he
had withdrawn as a candidate for a
position on the seven-member Ysleta
education board.
When officials received the letter,
it was too late to remove Overvoid’s
name from Saturday’s ballot, but all
people involved — including Over-
void, Goulait, Ysleta school officials
and El Paso County elections offi
cials — said they believed Goulait of
ficially was running unopposed.
Goulait, a general contractor, said
he is angry and would have cam
paigned had he known he faced op
position.

The InterRrst
Student Loan.
No one really needs to be told how expensive
a college education is these days. But what many
don’t know is where to look for help.
You can start at InterFirst. By asking about an
InterFirst Student Loan.
Undergraduates can borrow up to $2,500 per
school year, graduate students up to $5,000. And
the annual current rate for first-time borrowers
only 8%, simple interest.
If your family’s annual adjustable gross
income is less than $30,000, you’re
automatically eligible. If it’s more, there’s
an excellent chance you’re eligible for all or
part of the loan amount.
What’s more, you have ten years to repay
the loan. And you don’t start until six months after
graduation or withdrawal from school.
For more details, and an InterFirst Student Loan
application kit, send us the coupon. Or call or visit a local
InterFirst bank. Then you can stop worrying about money, and
start worrying about grades. beliCVC in yOU.
