SOUTH PADRE ISLAND (AP)
— Blooms of the deadly red tide that
killed more than two million fish,
shut down oyster harvests and
dented the Texas tourism industry
seem to have vanished.
But resentment over the bad pub
licity it caused lingers.
“The press painted a picture that
this amorphous mass of red death
had somehow swallowed the Texas
coast and it just wasn’t true,” Dick
Bushnell, spokesman for the South
Padre Island Tourist Bureau, said.
“But when you smear red ink on a
graph the public tends to get the im
pression there is a tremendous prob
lem.”
The red tide washed into this far
South Texas resort in mid-October
from the north, but Bushnell said
unlike other areas along the coast,
South Padre was only brushed by the
tide’s killing fumes.
At least one convention was
cancelled and untold tourist dollars
were lost, he said.
Mark Hamner, general manager
of the South Padre Hilton Resort,
said the way the red tide was re
ported “carried a lingering effect in
areas where we could have gener
ated additional business but didn’t.
People still ask about red tide and we
haven’t had red tide in three weeks.
Besides tourism, “we have no in
dustry unless you count T-shirts,” he
added. “We sell what we have —
sunny weather, pretty beaches and a
nice place to stay,” Hamner said.
Don Hockaday, of Pan American
University’s Coastal Studies Labo
ratory on South Padre, said red tide
is a phenomena caused when water
temperature, salinity, weather and
other factors combine to spark the
unchecked reproduction of a dinof-
lagellate, a type of microorganism.
Blooms of red tide emit at least
two toxins that cause irritation to hu
man eyes, the nose and throat and
kill fish, Hockaday said.
The organism builds up in shellf
ish such as oysters, and eating con
taminated shellfish can cause illness,
health officials said.
A killing red tide had not struck
the Texas coast for at least 20 years
when the blooms began forming in
late August along the upper coast.

Houston ISD sixth graders
get sex education classes
HOUSTON (AP) — Some sixth-
graders at Welch Middle School
learned a new phrase last week —sex
drive.
It’s all part of a pilot project ap
proved by school officials who are
concerned about the increasing
number of teen-age pregnancies.
Several hundred sixth-grade stu
dents at three middle schools in the
Houston Independent School Dis
trict are taking “family-life educa
tion” courses. The voluntary, 12-
week course includes sex education.
The pilot classes mark a first in
the school district. Sex education has
been taboo until now except for gen
eral discussions in health classes.
School board members approved
the courses earlier this year after ex
pressing dismay over the pregnancy
rate among teen-agers.
Eventually, district officials hope
to expand the courses to all schools
in the area.
At the district’s Kay Ongoing Ed
ucation School, a campus for preg
nant teens, the number of students
increased from 302 in 1981 to 453 in
1985, officials said.
School officials say more younger
students are becoming pregnant.
Two fifth-graders attended the Kay
campus last year.
Teachers in the new sex education
program say the youths ask plenty of
questions.
“No question is dumb,” said tea
cher Barbara Meadoughs, citing one
of the rules of the class.
Many of the lessons center on de
cision-making and the consequences.
Sexually transmitted diseases, in
cluding the fatal acquired immune
deficiency syndrome, also art
cussed.
The subject of birth control-
cussed at all three schools-I'
Williams and Marshall
schools. Meadoughs said shcit-
students the best method
nence because it is 100 percent" f j
live.
Students are encouraged!"
cuss what they learn in
their parents, she said.
Although several parents
their children out of the cla»j
cause they were uncomfortatif
the subject matter, instructor
other parents have expressed
itude that the classes are offers
“The kids are bombarded sof
sex through advertising and
movies,” Meadoughs said,
know it is on their minds.”

Immigration bill causes problem
for legal aliens who play by rules
HOUSTON (AP) — Dick Kuan, a
Hong Kong native, followed all the
rules and filled out all the necessary
documents to remain in the United
States legally.
Now, Kuan is frustrated with the
amnesty provision for illegal aliens
passed in the new immigration bill.
If he had lived here illegally since
before Jan. 1, 1982, he would be eli
gible for residency status.
“People who came here illegally
before 1982 are automatically
granted permanent residency, and I
really don’t think that’s fair,” said
the 29-year-old computer supervisor
who came to the country in 1976.
“For all the years that I’ve been in
the States, I’ve been doing the best I
can to follow exactly what is required
for legal residency,” he said.
“The amnesty law does not take
into consideration people like us,”
he said. “To be legal citizens we still
have to go through all the politics
and waiting. ... I have to apply for
labor certification, which has to be
granted first before I can apply for
permanent residency. That might be
five years down the road.”
Many foreigners here legally say
the changes threaten their jobs and
even their family unity, while illegal
aliens who skirted the laws will be
“rewarded” with permanent resi
dency status, the Houston Post re
ported Sunday.
“When Congress addressed the is
sue, they knew they were only letting
illegal people in,” said Immigration
and Naturalization Service spokes
man Duke Austin in Washington.
“Some people say that wasafl 1
sight.”
