ON THE DOUBLE 331 University Drive, Mfcaza $n>n murder motive, police so 1 HOUSTON — An attempt to col lect about $300,000 in insurance benefits was the motive behind the alleged murder-for-hire slaying of a 40-year-old Houston man, police tr' Geraldine Swatm, 43, the victim's wife, and her son from a previous marriage. Anthony Joseph PaJmire, 18, remained in the Harris County Jail without bond Monday. They were charged Sunday with capital murder in the slaying of Giloert Boyce Swaim. Mrs. Swaim allegedly husbai , master- mined to have her husband killed and hired two men in October to carry out her plan, Sgt. C.W. Kent said. The killers were allegedly prom ised $50,000 for the slaymg. he «id. Swaim was found shot In the neck in the bathroom near the master bedroom of his home in southeast Houston on Saturday. Charles Steven Sisk and Jerry Chaffin, both 19, also were charged with capital murder Sunday and were being held without bond, au thorities said. A “contract of termination" and the weapons believed used in the killing were found buried near a home where Chaffin and Sisk lived. investigators said. Investigators said the killing was supposed to take place in November, when Swaim went on a hunting trip in Arkansas. Police said they believe Swaim was followed for three weeks, but no attempt to kill him was made. "Apparently, they were going to make it look like a hunting acci dent," Kent said. According to investigators, the fee for the killing was raised front $25,000 to $50,000 after Swaim re turned to Houston. Mrs. Swaim is accused of arrang ing for the couple's house to be lefl umockird the morning of the killing, Kent said. Town raises money for child’s transplant AMOciaScd Prr** HASLET —- Only about 300 peo ple live in the tiny Tarrant County cixnmunity of Haslet, but they re sponded in a big way to a little girl's need for a costly liver transplant. Over $65,000 was raiseo through a variety of fund-raising benents and contributions for Patricia “Tye" Foster, 3. a victim of biliary artresia — the absence 4jf ducts that drain the liver. Paula Foster, the girl's mother, said, “We’re just amazed at the re sponse." Dr. Rt>b Squires. Tye's pediatric gastroenterologist in Fort Worth, said she could die without the trans plant, but would have an 80 percent to 90 percent chance of surviving with a new liver. She is now on a waiting list at Children's Medical Center in Dallas. The transplant is expected to cost $ 150.000. The girls father, Cve Foster, a maintenance supervisor for the Coca-Cola b4»ttler in F4>rt Worth, said that when he learned that his in surance would not cover Tye’s pre- exisidng condition, his family turn-d t4> their community l4»r help Three months ago. their church, the Haslet Church of Christ, began a letter writing campaign that reached 750 churches across the state and helped put $30,716 in the Tye Fos ter Funca. Betty Knox, secretary and trea surer at the church, said checks have come in the mail every day. “It’s really incredible," Knox said The Rev. Joe Hawkins, pastor at the church, said the response has been tremendous because people understand. “We’re looking out for one of our own members, but also everyone re alizes that this could be anyone's child," he said. “And when they look at the little girl — she’s there all the time in church and everybody has K wn up with her — it just tugs the rt st rings On Nov. 23, the Haslet Volunteer Fire Department sponsored a bene fit barbecue and auction that raised $21,1 !0 for Tye's fund. “When we have something, it takes the wfmle community to get to- ? ether to make it work,” said Haslet ire Chief Delt4>n Sewell. ‘That’s what this effort was — the whole community.” Supreme Court to review Texas inheritance law WASHINGTON — The Su preme CaHirt agreed Monday to review a Texas law that makes it more difficult f4>r an illegitimate child U) inherit from the father than from the nun her. The court granted a (tearing to a I exas woman who claims she is entitled to a share of her father’s estate even though she may have been lx>rn out of wedlock. A year ago. a Texas appeals court ruled against Delynda Ann Reed. 27. who is seeking a share of the estate of her natural father. Prince Ricker • Ricker was married to a pre vious wife at the time of the mar riage to Reed’s mother Ricker died in 1976 without leaving a will. L'nder 1979 amendments to the law, an illegitimate child was allowed to inherit from the father only if the child was born or con ceived before or during the mar riage 4)1 the father or nmther, if the child was legitimized by court tlet tee or it the father formally acknowledged his paternity m a written statement. Texas town puts on changed look for PBS film about teenage mayor Associated Press McDADF — When the movies came t4> town, nothing was quite the same in this century-old Bastrop County community. Seigmund’s General Store was re named for somebody named Gijya. Dungan Drug Store had some red curtains 4>n its windows and a sign out front calling it the Zeebar Cafe. George Cx>le, 70, was playing checkers instead of dtiminoes, and the beer cans 4>n the table had water in them “it’s a lot of excitement for Mc- Dade," said Dennis Atkinson, 75, the town’s unofficial mayor. Atkinson, a former dancer in Hol- tywood, is one of the few townsfolk not in “The Lone Star Kid,” a Film being shot this month in McDade and the surrounding area. The film, to be aired Feb. 10 by the Public Broadcasting Service, tells the story of Brian Zimmerman, who at the age of 1 1 became mayor of the of southeast of Houston. The film stars country singer Charlie Daniels as an elderly farmer opposing the youngster for the may or’s i4)b. James Earl Jones plavs a blind man w ho is Brian's adviser And Anson Williams of Happy Days fame is executive producer and director of the film McDade was chrisen instead of Crabb because of McDade's pictur esque downtown area, with stores concentrated in a one-block area, and because of its proximity to mo tion picture industry facilities in Austin, said Barbara Hiser, pro ducer-writer for the project. About 100 area residents arc used as extras. uninci>rporated town Crabb, “I think just about everylxKly in town is in the film,’’ Hiser said dur ing a day of filming last week. “We shut the town down. It’s TV movie day." A fight between two stray d4>gs has l>eeri the only hitch in filming, Hiser said. She saitf stray dogsi ba bies, and other lixal color have been added to the prtxfuction. Brian Zimmerman, now 13, was on the set T hursday to view the pro duction and p4>ssibly to l>e in some crowd scenes. He said the film's depiction of him has been fairly accurate, except for two p4)tnts. The crowd that is gathered around the general store is bigger than the number that was in Crabb on election day, Brian said. Only 3(| }>eople voted in the Crabb election. ^ Also, it bothers him that a skinny kid is playing his friend Moses Rangel. "Moses weighs about 180 pounds and that Bennie Moore guy playing him weighs 100 pounds less/’ Brian said. “I’m going to have fun explain ing that to Moses.” 6DI12/I3 ^ cncaaoto. twired door. «|n win- -umpoomi*. padded daih.
