The chief executive officer of TI, the semiconductor maker that closed 1985 with a loss of almost $120 mil lion, paints a grim picture of 1986. Jerry Junkins, president and chief executive officer, told The Dallas Morning News he sees no immediate return to profitability for the com pany and said, “We are taking a con servative approach at this time until we see a recovery.” In an interview published in The News’ Sunday editions, Junkins, who replaced J. Fred Bucy as chief exec utive officer last May, said the com- S any must scrutinize all aspects of its usiness. Junkins and other top officials said there will be detailed, ongoing reviews of all operations; Although the company last year cut some 10,000 jobs worldwide, more layoffs are not being ruled out. The job cutbacks follow a period of euphoria in the computer busi ness in 1983 and 1984 when TI and other companies added to their pay rolls and expanded operations. But sales of personal computers slowed in mid-1984 and Japanese semiconductor companies began selling their chips in the United States at prices below their manufac turing costs. In addition, the company recently announced it is suing eight Japanese and one Korean firm for alleged patent infringement, although those companies are TI customers. Junkins said the company simply wants to be more assertive in the pat ent area. “We are filing suit against compa nies that comprise a large percent age of our business in Japan. . .,” Junkins said. “How risky will it be? My personal opinion is there may be some problem but that they will look at it in the broader spectrum and not in the short term.” The College Station plant will be- of l come part ot the company’s biggest money-losers, the Austin-based Data Systems Group, which manufactures personal computers. Last year TI began cutting costs by $70 million and consolidated four of its plants into two. The College Station move is the first. The second is the consolidation of the terminals and peripherals op erations in Temple with Tl’s Hous ton plant put on the block for sale, Junkins said. Meanwhile, officials have high hopes for Tl’s profitable defense electronics business, which has the lucrative HARM missile contract. Sales in defense electronics were up slightly in 1985 over 1984 and TI of ficials predict a “substantial” backlog increase in 1985, giving the com pany a chance to resume its long term growth. White, Clements will pay fees, file for primaries today Associated Press AUSTIN — Monday is the final day to file for the May primaries, and Gov. Mark White and former Gov. Bill Clements say they’ll beat the deadline. The incumbent Democrat and the Republican he beat in 1982 have planned to pay their fees and fill out the forms Monday. Clements joins U.S. Rep. Tom Loeffler of Hunt and former U.S. Rep. Kent Hance of Lubbock as the major GOP contend ers. White will face what appears to be minor opposition in the Democratic primary. At Saturday’s State Democratic Executive Committee meeting, White made it clear he’s looking to November. “We don’t have anything new happening here today,” he said. “It’s the same old fight Democrats have been fighting forever and ever. We’re still fighting ignorance and superstition.” While White was talking 1986, the Democratic committee members spent part of Saturday talking 1988. The committee unanimously backed Houston’s bid to host the 1988 Democratic National Conven tion. “We think we have the people. We think we have the climate. We know we have the Democrats,” said Clin- tine Cashion of Houston Mayor Kathy Whitmire’s staff. Before the vote was taken, com mittee member Terry Bonds of Channelview complained that Hous ton’s new George R. Brown Conven tion Center includes foreign steel. Bonds is an international rep resentative for the United Steel workers Union. “I hope in the future our govern ment agencies do a better job of see ing whatever we build with our tax payers’ dollars is built with steel made in this country,” he said. Bonds voted for the Houston res olution despite complaining that more than 6,000 Houston-area steel workers have lost their jobs in the past few years — many of them be cause of imported steel. State Democratic Chairman Bob Slagle said Atlanta, New Orleans and Washington also are expected to make major bids for the convention, which can bring millions of dollars to the host city. National party officials will pick a site this summer, Slagle said. Dallas hosted the Republican Na tional Convention in 1984. Houston has hosted one national convention — the 1928 meeting at which Demo crats picked A1 Smith as their presi dential candidate. Smith lost to Re publican Herbert Hoover. Houston’s new downtown conven tion center is scheduled for comple tion in September 1987. It will hold 18,000 people and offer 500,000 square feet of space.

Stephen Fiengo, who had been hospitalized at Parkland Hospital since Jan. 22 with 100 dog bites, died at 8:55 a.m. Mary Layman, a hospi tal administrator, said the boy prob ably died as a result of the infections from the wounds. By last Friday, the little boy had undergone seven surgical proce dures and received as many as 187 pints of blood and plasma, Layman said. She said physicians have not de termined an exact cause of death, and it will be up to the Dallas County medical examiner to decide if an au topsy is needed. The dogs that attacked him were not rabid, the hospital spokeswoman said, but “any time a person is bitten there is a possibility of getting infec tion.” The child had been playing alone in a field on the outskirts of town near his home when he was attacked I by the dogs. His mother, BrendaSufI Fiengo, was visiting a friend at 3 j house nearby when it happened aim said she never heard a sound fro*j the attack. But when she went to check on hym, she found him “just lying theft with his eyes open.” Bloody dothin? was strewn in the dirt. < T
