kerned by the purists who insisted they

■orcing the Patriots’ offense into re
ft’
|j| as the Bears’ 18th victory in 19 games
narked the third time they had scored
than 40 points against teams with 10
victories or more. The 46 points were the
most ever scored in a Super Bowl and the
margin of victory was the largest ever.
“The Monsters of the Midway have really
returned,” NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle
said, in presenting the championship tro
phy. “In one respect it's probably better
that you won because otherwise the person
who founded this league, Ceorge Flalas,
might have come back and taken this league
away from us.”
Bears Coach Mike Ditka, a tight end on
Chicago’s last championship team, coached
by Halas, in 1963, said, “We can get a little
better, we can score a few more points on
offense.”
Chicago assistant coach Buddy Ryan’s
“46,” which often puts eight men on the
line of scrimmage, set up 32 of the 46
points.
Led by Richard Dent, the game’s Most
Valuable Player, the Bears registered seven
sacks to tie a Super Bowl record, held New
England to minus-19 yards in the first half
and didn’t allow a pass completion for 25
minutes or a first down for 26. Only one of
New England’s First 16 plays from scrim
mage — a three-yard run by Craig James —
gained yardage.
Bears’ quarterback Jim McMahon ran
for two touchdowns and passed for 256
yards before leaving at the end of the third
quarter with a slightly sprained left wrist.
But Walter Payton, the Bears’ and the
NFL’s all-time leading rusher, didn’t score
in his First Super Bowl in 11 seasons. In
fact, he was upstaged once again by 300-
pound lineman William “The Refrigerator”
Perry, who ran for one TD, threw a block
for another, and even tried to throw a pass.
“Yes, I was disappointed,” said Payton,
who gained 61 yards in 22 carries. “I feel
bad, but that’s the way it goes.”
Perry said of his touchdown, “Coach
Ditka called it and I was overwhelmed. I
thought I was going in to block for Walter.

Arraignments set for
Marbury, Holloway
By KEN SURY
Assistant Sports Editor
Texas A&M basketball players
Don Marbury and Todd Holloway
will be arraigned before a Robertson
County court judge March 21 to an
swer to misdemeanor charges of
marijuana possession, Robertson
County District Attorney Jimmie
McCullough told The Battalion Sun
day.
The charges stem from a Jan. 16
incident in Calvert, six miles north
west of Hearne, in which Marbury
and Holloway were stopped by Cal
vert police for a speeding violation.
According to information from
the Robertson County Sheriffs Of
fice and Calvert Justice of the Peace
John C. Woods, a 1980 Buick driven
by Marbury was pulled over by Cal
vert police for driving 72 mph in a
55 mph zone about 7:30 p.m. Jan.
16.
The.Buick lurched backward and
bumped into the Calvert police car,
Woods said, and the officer radioed
for assistance.
Upon arrival of other officers.
Woods said, the police found an en
velope of marijuana seeds under the
car but were denied permission to
search the car. A search warrant was
obtained, and more marijuana was
found inside the Buick.
Woods said Marbury and Hollo
way were charged with a Class B mis
demeanor for possession of less than
two ounces of marijuana each. The
Don Marbury
offense carries a fine of not more
than $1,000 and/or imprisonment of
not more than 180 days. Bail was set
at $1,000 each, and Marbury and
Holloway were released at 11 p.m.
on personal recognizance bonds.
Woods said.
McCullough said if Marbury and
Holloway plead guilty to the charges
at the March 21 hearing, they will be
sentenced immediately. If they
plead not guilty, then preparations
will be made for a formal trial.
After Saturday’s game against
Rice, Holloway talked with reporters
briefly about the incident. Holloway
denied any wrongdoing, saying,
“Hey, I’m a junior, I know right
from wrong. Everything else is in the
past. I came out to play ball (against
Rice).
“We (the Aggies) want to win the
Todd Holloway
(Southwest) Conference. All I’m
concerned about is going to school
and playing basketball.”
A&M Head Basketball Coach
Shelby Metcalf, commenting on the
charges, said Saturday, “They tljld
me they were innocent and I believe
them.”
Metcalf added that none of his
players have tested positive in
weekly random urinanalysis drug
tests.
“I have not talked to the people
(law enforcement officials) in Rob
ertson County (about the incident),”
Metcalf said. “I’ve got my job, and
they’ve got their job. I’m not going
to interfere with that.
“But if they (Marbury and Hollo
way) need a character witness. I’ll be
the first to line up.”

Irazos County not os hungry os it appears
Associated Press
recent Harvard University re-
has identified Brazos County as
lungriest county in Texas and
46th hungriest county in the
ed States, but the leader of a re-
h teams said it probably isn’t,
arge numbers of Texas A&M
:nts live off campus in Bryan
College Station. They were re-
;d in the Harvard survey as
ing less than the national pov-
Itandard — $ 10,609 a year for a
|y of four — but not receiving
stamps.
Jhe Harvard researchers reached
cir conclusions as to hunger in a
■ty by comparing areas shown to
! large pockets of impoverished
8ents with the number of people
jig advantage of food stamps.
|llen said the survey was flawed
Juse no attempt was made to ad-
■the data to student populations
— a factor that she said would throw
off the poverty statistics.
Nevertheless, Allen said the sur
vey succeeded in most cases in iden
tifying poverty and hunger prob
lems that previously were ignored or
overlooked because of preoccupa
tion with more apparent regions of
poverty like the Rio Grande Valley.
Although officials in some rural
counties hadn’t considered them
selves to have severe hunger prob
lems, the data demonstrated vividly
the problem in access to, or altitudi
nal barriers toward, food stamps, Al
len said.
“We used very, very crude mea
sures, and there is no question that
we are going to miss some things,”
Allen told the Bryan-College Station
Eagle.
“But if we generate some local de
bate about how we can make things
better . . . and help create the atti
tude in some of these areas that it’s
not a terribly shameful thing to ap
ply for food stamps, then we have
accomplished something,” she said.
State Sen. Hugh Parmer, who
guided the state’s Hunger Bill
through the Legislature last year,
agreed that Texas has a significant
hunger problem.
But he said the study, by using
percentages instead of real numbers,
did not pick the “hungriest” parts of
the state.
The Harvard study, conducted by
the Physicians Task Force on Hun
ger in America, found that 22.3 per
cent of Brazos County’s population
is living below the poverty standard.
The task force also found that
only about 12 percent of those who
appeared to qualify for food stamps
in Brazos County were receiving the
stamps.

NAIROBI, Kenya — The com
mander of the Ugandan rebel army
said Sunday he had replaced the 6-
month-old ruling military council
with one of his own and promised to
form a broad-based government and
punish criminals from previous re
gimes.
Yoweri Museveni outlined his
plans during a speech on the gov
ernment-owned radio Sunday af-
“Uganda has been messed
up by incompetent and
politically bankrupt lead
ers for the past 24 years. ”
— Yoweri Museveni, com
mander of the Ugandan
rebel army.
ternoon, a day after his National Re
sistance Army captured the capital,
Kampala, and sent thousands of
government soldiers fleeing.
Museveni appealed for calm in his
radio broadcast and said he would
appoint non-partisan village com
mittees to handle local affairs in
NRA-controlled areas.
He also promised to form a
broad-based, civilian administration
“in the shortest time possible.”
The Radio Uganda broadcast was
monitored in Nairobi. It was the first
time since midday Friday that the ra
dio had been on the air and the first
formal announcement to Ugandans
that Kampala had fallen to the NRA.
Earlier Sunday, Museveni met
with U.S. Ambassador Robert Hou-
dek, British High Commissioner
Colin MacLean and a representative
of the European Common Market,
the British High Commission (em
bassy) in Nairobi said. The four dis
cussed the evacuation of expatriates
and restoration of electric, water and
telephone services in the city, the
commission said.
In Washington the State Depart
ment said a chartered aircraft will
take some embassy personnel and
American citizens out of Kampala
Tuesday or Wednesday.
The State Department had no de
tails on how many people were leav
ing but said there were about 170
Americans in Uganda, 21 of them
attached to the embassy.
All Americans in Kampala were
safe but were advised to stay in
doors, the State Department said.
The British, too, were planning to
evacuate some of their personnel
and citizens but did not have an ex
act number, the high commissioner
said.
The first group of evacuees out of
Uganda — seven employees of the
United Nations World Food Pro
gram and three Lutheran World
Foundation workers — arrived
aboard a crowded Cessna 560 from
Moroto, 218 miles north of Kam
pala.
The 10 — two Irishmen, two Ke
nyans, three Ghanaians, a Filipino, a
Bangladeshi and an Ethiopian —
asked to be evacuated by air after
they found themselves cut off by
road and in the path of marauding
army deserters.
They said some fleeing soldiers
were being massacred by soldiers
from rival tribes.
Deserting army troops were rob
bing and beating civilians and loot
ing as they retreated, said a group of
evacuees who reached Nairobi late
Sunday afternoon from Northern
Uganda.
“Uganda has been messed up by
incompetent and politically bank
rupt leaders for the past 24 years,”
Museveni said. “Their main interests
have been sectarianism, corruption
and subservience to foreign inter
ests.”
Since gaining independence from
Britain in 1962, Ugandans’ 14 mil
lion people have seen leaders de
posed three times by coups — Milton
“(Ugandan leaders’) main
interests have been secta
rianism, corruption and
subservience to foreign in

Museveni also said he was ready to
meet with the various other rebel
groups and appealed to government
soldiers to give up their weapons.
criminals given hundreds of years get parole

■ALLAS — Seven criminals who
I led national attention when they
Ived the longest prison sen-
les in Texas history in the early
Is have been paroled after serv-
Inly about 13 years,
lorth Dallas County law enforce-
|t officials opposed the release of
peven, who were sentenced to
treds of years in prison for such
lesas murder, rape, robbery and
Tig drugs.
me official said the parole no-
Idon’t give enough information,
law enforcement’s manpower is
low to carefully check each pa-
Icandidate.
One of those paroled was Carl Ju
nior Hackathorn, who was convicted
of murdering an 18-year-old
woman. The victim’s 2-year-old
daughter was left abandoned in the
front seat of the woman’s pickup.
Hackathorn was sentenced to
death in 1963, then retried in 1970
and given a sentence of 1,000 years
in prison after his first conviction
was overturned on a technicality.
He was paroled in 1976 after serv
ing 13 years in prison.
“The big sentence was a red flag
that said, ‘Hey, this is just not a run-
of-the mill crime, take a close look at
it,’ ” a juror in the Hackathorn case
told the Dallas Times Herald in a
story published Sunday. “Obviously,
it didn’t mean a thing to the (parole
board).”
Jim Ewell, spokesman for the Dal
las County SherifFs Department,
said the department is unable to
keep up with the volume of parole
notices and is able to oppose only
those “whose names stick out.”
“The information they send to us
is almost meaningless,” Ewell said,
explaining that only the inmate’s
name, offense and sentence are in
cluded.
In at least two of the cases where
the death penalty could have been
imposed, jurors said they opted for
big life sentences instead, believing
that would keep the defendants be
hind bars.
At the time, the constitutionality
of capital punishment was before the
U.S. Supreme Court and authorities
faced the possiblity of death sen
tences being overturned.
Joseph Franklin Sills, 65, was sen
tenced to the first 1,000-year sen
tence in Texas history after being
convicted of robbing at gunpoint a
dry cleaner. Sills, who was convicted
of 20 felonies, was released in 1983
after serving 13 years.
James Arthur Guye, 34, was re
leased last year after serving about
14 years of a 1,205-year sentence for
the 1971 rape and robbery of a Dal
las woman and the murder of an in
mate while in prison.
Guye, a construction worker and
student in Harrisburg, Pa., said “I
never thought I’d get out.”
Sentenced to prison at the age of
19, Guye defended his parole and
said, “I’ve started over. I’m not an
animal.”
John Byrd, executive director of
the Board of Pardons and Paroles,
defended the inmates’ releases, say
ing only one of seven paroled has
been in trouble since his release
from prison.
That parolee, Allan Wayne Mur
ray, sentenced to 200 years and pa
roled in 1983 after serving 13, was
returned to prison last year. He was
arrested on drugs and weapons
charges, but was acquitted and is
now free.
The others who received major
sentences and have been paroled are
Antonio Rodriquez, 43, sentenced to
1,500 years for selling heroin and
paroled in 1981 after 12 years; Larry
Joe Knox, 37, sentenced to 1,001
years for rape and assault and pa
roled in 1983 after 13 years; and
Harold Eugene Hill, 39, sentenced
to 1,000 years for rape and robbery
and released in 1983 after 14 years.
“I think there’s something se
riously wrong with the judicial sys
tem,” James Barnhouse said, who
served on the jury that sentenced
Knox to prison. “No matter what,
even if we gave life, he’s out. What’s
the difference?”
