MIDLAND (AP) — Angry par
ents charged that a drug enforce
ment policy of the Midland Inde
pendent School District violates their
constitutional rights and those of
their children.
The parents said they will repeat
on Tuesday a request to the seven
school board members to limit the
district’s 24-hour drug monitoring
program.
“They are taking my parental
guidance away from me,” Ray Mar
shall, spokesman for Parents In
Control, told the Midland Reporter
Telegram. “What’s next? That’s
what worries me.”
The school board in October took
no action on the parents’ request to
reduce the drug enforcement policy.
The board’s policy passed on
Sept. 9. It imposes penalties ranging
from mandatory work details to two-
week suspensions to obligatory fam
ily counseling for those students who
participate in extracurricular activ
ities who are caught using, under the
influence of, or in the possession of
drugs, alcohol and tobacco.
Parents claim the policy should
apply only on school grounds and
during times when students are par
ticipating in extracurricular activ
ities.
Joe Baressi, superintendent of
schools, said he doesn’t believe the
policy abuses constitutional rights.
Baressi said students caught abus
ing the policy off school grounds will
be suspended only from extracurri
cular activities, not school.
Parents who object to the 24-hour
policy said they are not condoning
drug and alcohol abuse. But they
said the school district has taken
away their control over their chil
dren.
“They’re trying to tell me I’m not
concerned about my kids,” Marshall
said. “They’re telling me, ‘You’re not
doing your job and we’re taking it
away.’ ”
He said the parents’ organization
also has set up a non-profit fund to
pay for legal expenses.
Six Midland High School students
were suspended for two weeks last
month for alcohol and drug abuse,
following an investigation after a
weekend party.
Three of those students’ parents
have joined Parents In Control,
Marshall said.
Rod Schoen, president of the
Texas Civil Liberties Union in Lub
bock, said the parents have a good
claim.
“They have very legitimate legal
concerns,” Schoen said. “It appears
the school district has overreached
its legal jurisdiction.”
But school district attorney
Charles Tighe disagreed.
“So far as extracurricular activities
are concerned, the school district
does have certain rights to deter
mine the access to those extracurri
cular activities,” Tighe said.

Aggie souvenirs
help merchants
cash in on Cottoij)j S
By Robert Morris
Staff Writer
A winning football team sells.
That message rings loud and cleat
from local retailers who are profit
ing from the Aggie football team’s
success over the last two years.
The Cotton Bowl-bound Aggies
are apparently “hot property.”
A vast array of T-shirts, sweat
shirts and other apparel claiming
Aggie preeminence in the Southwest
Conference — along with numerous
Cotton-related souvenirs — can be
found at local bookstores.
However, retailers are experienc
ing varied success. It seems for some
merchants the second time around is
not as sweet, or as profitable.
Becky Elmore, manager of Rot It
er’s Book Store on Jersey Street, said
that because last year’s game with
the University of Texas was at Kyle
Field, it caused an instant lx>om in
business, something that didn’t hap
pen this year.
“It’s just not as big a deal this
year,” she said.
Still, Elmore said, she expects to
have no problem selling the shirts al
ready printed, and since Rother’s
does its own printing, they can re
plenish the supply when needed.
Employees at Lou pots Book Store
on Northgate expected their sales to
be the same as last year.
They said that the store is selling a
wide range of Cotton Bowl-related
products, as well as other Aggie par
aphernalia, hut didn’t attribute the
success directly to this year’s team.
A better football season always
adds up to stronger sales, said one

DALLAS (AP) — Two employees
and the owner of a Cartier jewelry
store sat dazed for several minutes
before they activated a silent alarm
after being robbed of $750,000 in
merchandise, officials said.
“There were no heroes among
us,” assistant store manager Sheila
Barries said after the Wednesday
robbery.
Police searched Thursday for a
well-dressed man who walked out of
the store with two suitcases full of
merchandise, including a 120-carat
Burmese ruby necklace valued at
$240,000.
Store owner Nirmal Vaswani said,
“They took everything — every
thing.” He said he and the two other
employees in the store were robbed
as they arrived to open the store
Wednesday morning.
The robber took about 80 percent
of the store’s inventory that had
been locked overnight in a safe.
Only a few items were left in the
store’s display windows.
“It was a nasty loss,” Vaswani said.
He declined to estimate the value
of the stolen jewelry, which included
diamond rings, watches and neck
laces.
