He said he expects “a heckuva
floor fight” once the Omnibus Tort
Reform Bill comes up for debate. It
was to have been filed Monday.
“I think if a vote were taken today,
it’d be very close,” Caperton said.
“But I think we’ll have sufficient
votes to block any of these ill-
founded proposals.”
Caperton offered several of his
own proposals, which he said will ad
dress the state’s liability problem in a
more constructive way.
Those include:
• Legislation to mandate the col
lection of closed claims statistics by
the State Board of Insurance.
• New laws to create insurance
pools for non-profit organizations
and state licensees and joint under
writing associations for professional
groups.
• A recommendation to establish
a local government excess coverage
pool, a fund to be used to provide
additional re-insurance capacity for
cities, counties and other public enti
ties that need it.
• A proposal that insurance com
panies be required to offer the same
lines and classes of insurance in
Texas that they offer in other states.

Man who would be king loses royally in court
HOUSTON (AP) — A genealogy
expert’s claim to the throne of En
gland and hence to immunity from
prosecution on trespassing charges
came to naught.
County Criminal Court-at-Law
Judge Jim Barkley denied Robbis L.
Mitchell’s motion for dismissal and
set a March 5 trial date. Mitchell is
accused of rifling through a desk at a
radio station.
The 38-year-old defendant, who
represented himself in court, said he
began researching his bloodline in
1978 and determined his blood is su
perior to the current heir apparent.
Prince Charles.
Barkley asked Mitchell for proof
of his royal heritage. “I think some
thing from the British embassy
would be in order,” the judge said.
But the embassy is under control
of Queen Elizabeth, Mitchell ar
gued, and he could hardly expect
her to “accept our claim ove i
her son."
The 1 ennessee native
really is Henry X Rex d'AnjitJ

would make a marriage between
an Anglo and Indian difficult.”
Bradley, who is half Indian
and half Anglo, said she couldn’t
see herself marrying anyone but
an Indian.
“I have my own personal com
mitment to maintain the culture
and ceremonies,” she said. “I
could not hand down the tradi-
tions with a person of a different
culture because he could not par
ticipate in the sacred activities.”
American Indians also face dif
ficulties when marriage takes
place between different tribes l>e-
cause language becomes a har
rier, Bradley said.
English is being spoken more
as a communication between
tribes because Indians are not as
fluent in languages of other
tribes, she said.
As a result, English is passed
on to the children more than the
native language.
“We t>egin to hit and tns

she said. "It is becoming
difficult to keep the nativefc

Because they lack full ui
standing of the language,
Indians also miss the values:
