Heart donor's warped
family meets
with recipient
TYLER (AP) — A year ago, Mi
chael Drummond of Phoenix and
the family of Tarro Griffin in East
Texas had little in common.
But over the weekend, Drum
mond and relatives of Griffin met
lor the first time, drawn together by
an emotional bond.
The heart of Tarro Griffin beats
in Michael Drummond’s chest and is
the reason he is alive today.
“From the beginning, I wanted to
meet them,” Drummond said of the
Griffin family.
Last year, Griffin, 19, was killed in
a motorcycle wreck. His heart was
transplanted into Drummond’s
chest. Drummond, 27, had been
kept alive by an artificial heart and
made headlines in September 1985
when he became the youngest per
son to receive an artificial heart.
On Saturday, the Phoenix grocery
store worker met the Griffin family
in their Lindale home.
“1 feel like he’s my son,” said Mrs.
Griffin, who turned to smile at
Drummond.

Hispanics say reforms
‘disastrous’ for Texas
AUST IN (AP) — Hispanic lead
ers say some immigration reform
proposals pending in Gongress
could have a disastrous effect on
Texas' f astest growing population.
State and local governments could
he saddled with paying for the re
forms. said Rep. Al Luna, D-Hous-
ton, chairman of the Mexican-Amer-
ican Legislative Conference.
Luna and other Hispanic leaders
held a news conference Saturday to
state their opposition to several pro
visions of the immigration reform
measure now in a Congressional
committee.
The conference came after the
committee recessed until Tuesday.
One of its last moves was to reach a
tentative agreement limiting federal
money that would go to states and
cities for enforcing the act.
“This will still leave state and local
governments holding the bag for the
rest of the cost,” Luna said.
Luna said he was expressing the
feelings of the caucus, the Southwest
Voters Registration Project, Mexi-
can-American Democrats of Texas,
and Mexican-American Chambers
of Commerce on the immigration
reform proposal.
Luna said both House- and Sen
ate-approved bills contain employer
sanctions that would make it illegal
for employers to hire undocu
mented persons.
“The net result of this provision
will be to create a pretext for job dis
crimination against U.S. citizens like
Mexican-Americans who share com
mon ethnic and cultural characteric-
tics with undocumented Hispanics,”
Luna said.
The Mexican-American Legis
lative Caucus proposed that a com
promise include anti-discrimination
provisions and that the program be
limited to five years.
Another major objection, Luna
said, was the House proposal that
would permit up to 350,000 alien
farm workers who have lived here
the last three years to apply for 90-
day temporary residence, but not
permanent residence.
“Any type of program to impori
foreign workers to harvest perisha
ble crops must provide full protec
tion of the law, including permanent
residence to the workers,” he said.

European expert to talk on
Soviet view of disarmament
Sovietologist Dr. Peter Vigor, a
semi-retired faculty member at
the Royal Military Academy in
Sandhurst, England, will deliver a
speech on “The Soviet View of
Disarmament” at 7:30 p.m. Tues
day in 226 Memorial Student
Center.
Dr. Richard Thomas, director
of the Center for Strategic Tech
nology, which is co-sponsoring
the speech, says that as a Euro
pean, Vigor probably will present
a different view on the issue ol
disarmament than that of U.S.
Sovietologists.
Vigor lias written extensive!'
on the “Soviet operational art,’’as
I homas terms it — a siudv
broader than battle tactics bui
more specific than broad political
strategies. Soviet operational an
studies warfare at the theater
level, including the deploymeni
ol troops and equipment.
1 lie speech is co-sponsored bv
Texas A&M. the Military Studies
Institute and the Center for Strat

Computer ‘cop’patrols highway
HOUSTON (AP) — A computerized surveillance
system will soon begin its patrol of a busy highway on
the lookout for hazardous traffic conditions, city offi
cials said.
The first leg of the S275 million traffic “cop” system
will be operational in about a month on the Katy Free
way transit lane, a section of Interstate 10 in Houston,
but it will take nearly 20 years before the system can
command some 514 miles of Houston's busiest high
ways.
By combining cameras, sensors and overhead mes
sage signs, the system can close lanes and alert drivers
to accidents or vehicle breakdowns, which together
cause half of all traffic delays, said Dick Me Gasland of
the Texas Transportation Institute.
A problem such as a blown tire can be reported
through buried sensors that detect the slowing cat and
prompt a nearby television carnet a to focus on the inci
dent. A human controller watching a TV monitor miles
away sees the problem, sends electronic warnings lor
drivers and dispatches help.
Similar systems exist in Los Angeles, Chicago, Ne>
York, Denver, Detroit, New Orleans, Dallas andsubm
ban Washington D.G., officials said.
Metro’s computers will Ik.* capable of opening and
closing transitwav gates, (hanging message sign*and
sounding alarms whenever the average speed onalant
drops too low.
Transitways are one-way express lanes on freera
used during rush hour by buses and car pools. Trai
on the lane heads into the city in the morning and aw
from it after work hours.
A computerized system was once used on part of In
terstate 45, hut the signs and cameras were dismantled
when the Texas highway department liegan rebinlfc
the freewav, McGasland said.
“You're still going to have accidents; you're still goinj
to have disabled vehicles and it’s still going tobcovti
loaded," he said. “That’s where we need (a compi®
surveillance system). We haven’t seen a freewaytta
doesn’t develop problems.”
