AIDS hospital
losing funds,
soon to close
HOUSTON (AP) — The nation’s
first AIDS hospital will be closing
within the next 12 months because
of losses of more than $8 million, a
hospital spokesman said Thursday.
“We’re phasing out all programs
and services,” said Carol White, a
spokesman for American Medical
International, which manages the
Institute for Immunological Disor
ders. “Now we’re focusing on contin
uation of research programs.”
The decision to close the hospital
came after months of discussions be
tween AMI and the University of
Texas System, she said.
When the facility in north Hous
ton opened last September, AMI
agreed to operate it and UT agreed
to provide the physicians.
“We’ve been discussing options,”
White said. “We looked at the possi
bility of restructuring the institute so
that we could include a broader pro
gram range. A fuller-service hospital
was another. We don’t provide sur
gery and we could have added that.”
In a statement the university said,
“While there is and will be a consid
erable effort on the part of AMI and
the University of Texas System to
continue the research and treatment
at the institute, AMI’s financial re
sponsibilities have grown too great
to go beyond another year.”
Mark Hanna, assistant to the
chancellor at UT, said the board of
regents received the letter from
AMI Wednesday afternoon.
An agreement, approved in June
1986, required either side to give 12
months notice to terminate the ar
rangement if the hospital could not
be operated on a sound financial ba
sis. si
“After about 10 months to 11
months of operation, we’re going to
have a loss of $7 million,” White
said. “At the end of the fiscal year on
Aug. 31, we expect an $8 million
loss.” About $5 million of that loss is
attributed to indigent care, she said.
When the hospital opened,
$250,000 was earmarked for indi
gent care, but by March, $3 million
had been provided in free care. In
March, the hospital announced it
would stop admitting indigent pa
tients.

Faculty Senate to review curriculum pli
Studies have indicated the cost of
treating one acquired immune defi
ciency syndrome patient for one
year is about $40,000.
AIDS cripples the body’s ability to
fight disease and is spread through
an exchange of body fluids.
Despite financial problems, White
said the institute has had an excel
lent outpatient program. T1
have been about 700 patients —
There
are current and most are outpatients
— since the hospital opened, she
said.
The hospital is equipped with 150
beds, but handles only aoout a dozen
inpatients on a daily basis, White
said. Only one wing of the hospital
has been in use for patients.
“The institute patients will have
ample time to be placed in other fa
cilities or be referred to other capa
ble physicians,” Hanna said.
The hospital also began laying off
staff in March.
After literally years of work,
the Texas A&M Faculty Senate
will review the first core curric
ulum plan submitted by an aca
demic college.
The new curriculum plan for
the College of Architecture and
Environmental Design has been
reviewed by several committees
and will come to the Senate floor
for approval at the Monday meet
ing, to be held at 3:15 p.m. in 601

The Senate will also consider a

National Night Out events occur Tuesdt_ r n°my
By Yvonne DeGraw
Staff Writer
If you haven’t heard of it yet,
you will soon. Tuesday is Na
tional Night Out, and according
to one source, Bryan-College Sta
tion has a good chance to win the
National Night Out Cup.
The activities will be held at Ol
sen Field and along Olsen Road
from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. The events
have been moved from Texas
Avenue for safety reasons. Law
enforcement agencies say they
expect 10,000 people.
Coordinated by three local po
lice departments and the sheriff’s
department. Night Out activities
will include a five-mile chain of
people, the world’s longest popsi-
cle stick, a motorcade, a mass oal-
loon release and lots of noisemak-
Ice cream trucks will give each
person in the chain a free popsi-
cle and several popsicle sticks. It
will take 55,000 popsicle sticks to
reach the five-mile distance.
The motorcade of local, state
and national officials will travel
the length of the chain. It will in

Child molester with AIDS vin
may have infected 54 you!
MARLIN (AP) — Authorities
found the names of 14 more chil
dren Thursday in the computer of a
child molester who police fear may
have infected as many as 54 young
sters with the AIDS virus.
Jimmy Etheridge, a self-employed
insurance man described as a “nice
person,” was found shot to death
June 30. An autopsy showed he had
the AIDS virus, and a check of the
man’s home computer yielded the
names and addresses of children,
along with details about sexual rela
tions he had with them.
A 16-year-old boy who had been
living with him signed a statement
saying he shot Etheridge acciden
tally, said District Attorney Thomas
Sehon, who said the criminal investi
gation in the case is over.
“We cannot prove beyond a rea
sonable doubt that he (16-year-old)
or anyone else committed murder,”
Sehon said.
Debra Coca, chief Falls County ju
venile probation officer, said Thurs
day officials had found two or three
more lists , in Etheridge’s computer
with 14 new names, mostly from
Louisiana.
But of the total 54 children, ad
dresses from Texas, Louisiana, Mis
sissippi, California, Colorado, Ar
kansas and Mexico were found, she
said. At least 10 of the children are
from this little community southeast
of Waco.
“We are still in the process of pull
ing names out of the computer,” she
said, adding she has no idea how
many more names might be found.
Six children have been tested for
AIDS so far, and only one test result
is back, said Coca, declining to say
whether it was positive or negative.
Parents who have been notified,
she said, expressed “shock, bewil
derment and a lack of understand
ing about how this could happen.”
Many said, “He seemed to be such
a nice person.”
She said many of the children are
too young to understand the impli
cations of the situation.
Etheridge, who moved here from
West Monroe, La., 18 moM
was not known in the mosif
business community.
“If you go to the south I
town, he was very well kiwi
