Mark White will appear on live television Thursdav evening to tell Texans his plans for a special legislative session to balance the state budget. Speaker Gib Lewis, after speaking with White Wednesday, said, “He’s got some innovative ideas he wants to kick out and see what the re sponse will be.” State Comptroller Bob Bullock has predicted a budget shortfall of $2.3 billion by Aug. 31, 1987, the end of the current budget cycle. He is expected to raise the projected shortfall to more than $3 billion late this month. Ann Arnold, White’s press secre tary, said Wednesday that barring any last-minute problems, the gover nor would announce the special ses sion date during a brief Thursday address from his office in the Capi tol. “He is working with the Legis lature to solve the budget problem,” she said. “He is going to discuss how that is to be done and the plans for the special session.” Lewis would not reveal the date under consideration, but told re porters in Fort Worth, “I can tell you don’t make any plans for the last part of August and the First part of September.” White and legislative leaders have said the goal of the special session will be to cut spending — not raise in order to balancett; taxes g el - . . _ White has not said whenib| cial session would begin, kL hinted it could start in mid- August. In a Wednesdayspeei school superintendents’ mtj White asked the educatorsfej help during the special sessioi ; White’s speech is beingof(o no charge, to television newscasts. The governor's holder account will payforttiil cast, according to Arnold. The speech is scheduled Thursday at (i:01 p.m. Thtj nor’s regular weekly newsi ence, scheduled for Thursday! ing, was canceled.

J.R. Hagan, an officer of the Civil ian Materiel Assistance organization, told the Houston Chronicle Tuesday from Tucson, Ariz., that patrols would be sent into deserted areas of the Texas-Mexico border between El Paso and Marfa and Del Rio, Uaredo and McAllen. A border patrol spokesman, how ever, said the efforts are not wel comed. “They don’t have the experience or the language or the training,” said Duke Austin, a spokesman for the agency in Washington. CMA claims it is interested only in looking for drug smugglers and “communist invaders,” but earlier this month the group sent an armed patrol along the Arizona-Mexico border 30 miles east of Nogales, and held 16 illegal aliens until federal au thorities arrived. The group is headed by Thomas V. Posey, a wholesale grocer from Decatur, Ala., who claims the orga nization has 5,000 members in the United States, Canada, England, British West Indies, France and Central America. The group is armed with Ameri can M-16 and AK-47 assault weap ons, the Chronicle reported. Posey and Hagan said the patrols would also be expanded to Califor nia and eventually to New Mexico, covering the entire U.S.-Mexico bor der. Hagan could not say when the pa trols would begin.

We cannot have children and desire to adopt a baby very much. If you can help us to find a baby to adopt, please call us,” the Gullahorns wrote on fliers distrib uted on cars in downtown Fort Worth this week. The couple tried to adopt through agencies for a year and in February began distributing the fliers and posting printed cards in shopping malls and grocery stores, looking for a woman willing to give her baby up for adoption. So far, the only responses to the campaign have been prank phone calls, which have upset Mrs. Gulla horn, said her husband, a 36-year- old security guard. “Mv wife feels real bad about the situation,” he said. “I can’t under stand how someone can call and bother a woman who can’t have a baby. It hurts very much.” “i’ve never seen a couple more de termined to have a child as they are,” said the Rev. Jesse McElreath, the Gullahorn’s pastor. “I know it’s a crazy way of going about adopting a child, but I pray that it’ll work out for them.” Jan Taylor, spokeswoman for the Texas Department of Human Serv ices, said the Gullahorns’ search is le gal. If a child is found, the person who conducts placement of the child must be licensed by the state, she said. The Gullahorns said if they are successful, they will hire a lawyer to handle the paperwork. White couples, such as the Gulla horns, have a more dif ficult timt ing to adopt a child becauseof|_ policy dial children placed thru ti l agencies go to parents of the8| ethnic group whenever possible! 1 I I ,t\ ItM and Susan Bradfordijiii h| Worth adoption agency.

McCandless, a deputy for three years, said he was fired by White July 5 and now' is being investigated bv the Texas Rangers. White, w ho has been sheriff since 1969, denied firing McCandless for meeting with FBI agents. The sher iff w'ould not elaborate, saying he had been told by District Attorney Frank Blazek not to discuss the dis missal. The FBI probe began about a vear ago when agent John Trethe- wev met with McCandless, former jailer Harold Russell, former depart ment secretary Mercedes Shoe maker and private investigator Lee Mackev, the Houston Chronicle re ported Wednesday. The allegations included reports that White mistreated jail prisoners, used inmates to w'ork for his private hay baling business, gave friends property seized in drug investiga tions and that White’s deputies were using county vehicles to operate a private security business, according to the newspaper. The FBI recently finished a 300- page report on the allegations against White. Parts of that report were leaked to White, McCandless said, and used the excerpts as a rea son to fire him. HOUSTON (AP) — A mother testified Wednesday her learn ing-disabled son maintained per fect attendance in school so he go to Astroworld only to be denied the trip because he ran afoul of the no-pass, no-play rule. Uela Arnes said her 1 1-year- old son Nolan was not allowed to take the 1985 trip, awarded to those who maintain perfect atten dance, because he had failed his regular courses at Parker El ementary School in Houston. Arnes was one of several wit nesses testifying before State Dis trict Judge Marsha Anthony in a lawsuit challenging the contro versial no-pass, no-play rule. The rule prohibits students who fail a course in a grading pe riod from participating in extra curricular activities for six weeks. Plaintiffs claim the law, part of a statewide school reform package, discriminates against minorities and handicapped students. Although Nolan failed his reg ular courses this year, he had per fect attendance and the school principal said he could take the trip to the amusement park, Arnes said. “Going to Astroworld this year was a neat experience,” she said. “Being with your friends and peers is a great experience.” Nolan, who will be in the fifth grade this fall, said he was dis couraged when he could not go to Astroworld in 1985, but he de cided to trv for the chance again in 1986. “I was hoping I could go this vear,” the bov said outside the courtroom. Eugene Bruce, who helped compile data from hundreds of school districts regarding the pass, no-play law, said therein “obvious disparities” between numbers of whites and minonixfl af fected by the rule. In the third six-week gratis period of the 1985-86 scM year, 23 percent of black dents, 22 percent of Hispanic® dents and 29 percent of lean® disabled students were exclude f rom extracurricular activities cause of the rule, according data submitted to the court, j Fifteen percent of white stffl dents w'ere excluded from acu r ities, according to the data l i , l ported from 511 school distri j with 1.2 million students. ; A high school teacher in Sug; 1 Land also testified, saying it! rule had an impact on studet J wanting to take a trip to Washid j ton D.G., which is offers < through a special program it* i gives students a chance to lea [ ] about the government. Marjorie A. Rector said shet | had more than 60 students lat'l the trip, hut only four wereelif i hie to go this January. “Due to the no-pass, no-pt rule, a number of those bei' ; i able to participate has gready cf | creased and that concerns ms said Rector, who teaches hoi students. Although she stopped short 11 ! laying all blame on the rul' | Arnes said it was a factor l #, | many students, including whit® A minority student who pas® all year except in the third gn 1 ' ing period could not go on if ; trip, she said. “She never recovered from Arnes styd. “She had worked! two years to go on the progra J She trulv would’ve benefitted
