Paper: Clement’s budget hides $500 million in cuts HOUSTON <AP) — Gov. Bill Clements' plan to balance the state budget includes more than *500 mil lion in hidden cuts, the Houston Chronicle reported Sundav Clements'budget would cut *3.72 million in state scholarships at Texas’ institutions of higher Warn- mg. the newspaper said The plan also calls for elimination of state funding for the Thurgood Marshall SchocH of Law at Texas Southern University, the M< Donald Observatory and Lyndon B John son School of PublK Affairs at the University of Texas and the Crimi nal Justice Center at Sam Houston State University. The cuts were not obvious in the 53-page policy budget dements gave the Legislature last week The governor proposed to bal ance the state's budget by selling state land he valued at $315.5 mil lion to the state trust funds.

Triple murderer to be sentenced DALLAS (AP) — A jury returns Monday to determine whether a man convicted of killing three women with a hatchet should be sen tenced to death. David Martin Long, 33, was con victed Saturday of capital murder in the deaths of Donna Sue Jester, 38; her adoptive mother. Dalpha Jester. 62; and a 20-year-old drifter, Laura Lee Owens, at the Lancaster home on Sept. 27. Long had testified that his Pente costal religion led him to believe that people can become "demon-pos sessed" rather than mentally ill. and had shouted to jurors earlier in the week that he was guilty He also told State District Judge Larry W Baraka that he wanted to receive the death penalty "I’m guilty as hell," Long jumped up and shouted at one point during the trial Long’s attorneys had tried to build a case showing that insanity prompted Long to kill the three “I never wanted this insanity de fense." Long said Friday. A psychologist and psychiatrist testified that Long is not insane, but the psychologist said Long probably experienced a psychotic episode at the time he killed the women. ■»**«< B T-T-T TT ’WTTTT1 SCONA XXXII The United Nations: Purpose vs. Politics Speaker Presentations Rudder Theatre 7:00 p.m. Under Secretary General oflhe UnHed NeNons 'The U.N.
