Retirement program called milestone
New plan benefits Texas teachers
By Shannon Boysen
Reporter
The Teacher Retirement System of Texas
(TRS) recently added a new health-care program
for retired teachers.
Legislation creating the Texas Public School
Retired Employees Group Insurance Program
was signed into law in June 1985 by Gov. Mark
White and went into effect this September.
The addition is a milestone in the history of
TRS, said Bruce Hineman, executive secretary of
the program.
Edward H. Wicker, TRS board chairman, said
the TRS-Care insurance program will alleviate
undue hardship on thousands of retired Texas
teachers who dedicated their careers to teaching
the children of Texas.
“With the increasing cost of health care, many
retirees simply could not afford coverage after
they left their active careers,” Wicker said.
Hineman said the program will provide basic
coverage to retirees at no cost, while coverage for
dependents and surviving spouses of retirees can
be purchased. The program also provides pro
tection against catastrophic illness, with either a
deductible of $200, $2,000 or $5,000 depending
on Medicare coverage.
60 percent of the incurred costs, TRSpavs)
percent of the remaining costs and the bend
ciary pays the balance.
Approximately 85,000 people are expected
pay into the program with benefits extending
over 550.000 members, Hineman said.
Funds for the insurance program are automat
ically deducted from the paychecks of all employ
ees of Texas public schools, Hineman said.
In September 1985, all active school employ
ees began contributing 0.25 percent of their sala
ries to fund the program, Hineman said. In Sep
tember 1986, the state of Texas began
contributions of one third of one percent of the
salary of each active public school employee. The
state’s contributions will increase each year until
September 1989, when it will remain at 0.5 per
cent.
TRS-Care is intended to coordinate with
Medicare, Hineman said. Medicare pays the first
I RS was established by state legislation
1937 and previously included only a few noniiit
retirement benefits, Hineman said.
Since September 1985, almost $18 mil
been contributed by employees.
Rep. Betty Denton, D-Waco, the bill’sspom
said, “A strong and solvent retirement system
key benefit to teachers and an important era
rion for attracting bright and highly qualifnt
persons to the teaching profession.''
Hineman added that the TRS programii

Texas ranchers: License law
driving away game hunters
Exotic game owners seek new legislation
FORT DAVIS (AP) — Darrell York, who operates a
7,200-acre ranch in the mountains of far West Texas,
says the Texas Legislature added more grief to his op
erations when it passed a new law requiring out-of-state
residents to pay $75 for a hunting license.
“I have enough trouble with mountain lions getting
my calves,” York told the San Angelo Standard-Times.
“I don’t need this other problem.” He runs 50 head of
registered Texas Longhorns and 80 head of crossbred
mother cows on his ranch 36 miles northwest of Fort
Davis. His exotics are mouflon sheep, wild sheep native
to Corsica and Sardinia.
York is one of several exotic game owners in West
Texas who think that the law violates their rights as
landowners and makes it difficult to attract hunters.
York said he and other ranchers depend financially
on exotic game hunters, who are increasingly choosing
to go to other states, such as Florida, that do not require
out-of-state hunting licenses.
Exotics formerly were considered domestic livestock
and ranchers could do with them as they wished.
Ranchers would report poached or stolen exotics to
their county sheriff, not a game warden.
The law passed by the 1985 Texas Legislature placed
poaching of exotics under the jurisdiction of the Parks
and Wildlife Department.
York would not say how many hunters his ranch at
tracts annually, or how much they pay to hunt exotics.
State Sen. Bill Sims, D-San Angelo, opposes the law,
and said a number of individuals and organizations
have contacted him asking for a change.
Sims, executive secretary of the Texas Sheep and
Goat Raisers Association, said some association mem
bers are interested in a change in the law.
“We want to establish that exotics belong to the man
who raises them,” Sims said.
Sims wants landowners to decide whether thex want
exotics to be livestock or wildlife under the law.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department lobbied
for the law to make it easier for game wardens to en
force poaching laws and to arrest and charge poachet x
Sims said.
He said he is working with State Rep. I
Dallas on a proposal for the upcoming Le
However, Agnich has indicated to Fr
lisher of the Hunting Ranch Business newsletter,
the problem may be larger since free-roaming ex<
compete with native whitetail deer for feed on o
grazed land.
Agnich intends to propose legislation to allow i
censed hunting of exotics inside high f ences on ram
and farms.
His proposal would make free-roaming exotic g
state property and hunting would be regulated bv P
and Wildlife.
Sims said exotics should be the property of
owner, regardless of the side of fence they are gra/ii

White soys Clements commercial
misleads voters with implications
PALESTINE (AP) — Gov. Mark
White, campaigning for re-election
Monday, said Republican Bill Clem
ents is misleading voters with a tele
vision commercial that suggests
White is to blame for the mugging of
a woman featured in the ad.
In the commercial, a woman tells
of the incident and suggests that pol
icies of the White administration
might be responsible.
“It’s a shame Susan Key was the
victim of a crime,” White said. “What
is also a shame is the hypocrisy of
Bill Clements. It’s a shame Bill Clem
ents failed to tell Susan Key, and
fails to tell the people of Texas, that
he vetoed prisons — prisons that
could have held criminals like the
one'who attacked Susan Key.”
The Democrat added, “It’s a
shame Bill Clements didn’t tell her
about the 28,000 inmates he person
ally paroled, including 19 criminals
who committed murder and are now
sitting on death row.”
Responding, Clements said Key
volunteered to appear in the com
mercial because of her strong feel
ings that something needed to be
done “to help bring attention to an
unjust criminal justice system.”
Clements said he isn’t surprised
by White’s reaction.
“Because Susan Key’s story is not
an isolated incident,” Clements said.
“Unfortunately, her plight has be
come an all-too-famihar occurrence
as our citizens are plagued by an in
creasing number of felons as the re
sult of Mark White’s early release
program.”
White said that under his adminis
tration, prison capacity has been ex
panded by nearly 10,000 beds and
that plans for another 6,500 have
been approved.
“Were doing something about
criminal justice and the problems
Bill Clements left us,” White said.
“Bill Clements’ approach was to cut
— to veto needeo prison space. Our
approach is to build more prisons.”
