Ex-judge opens
law practice
after resigning
FORT WORTH (AP) — Former
Judge Tom Cave, who resigned af
ter he was aquitted of sex-for-le-
niency charges, has quietly returned
to private law practice, something
that has drawn mixed reaction from
his colleagues.
Cave, 57, was acquitted in June on
federal charges of trading judicial le
niency for sex with female proba
tioners. The jury convicted Clave of
mail fraud, but that conviction was
later overturned when the U.S. Su
preme Court narrowed the interpre
tation of the mail fraud statute.
The mail fraud charges alleged
that Cave sent money to Radiel
Perez Tallent, a probationer and
convicted prostitute, to pay her pro
bation fees. Cave was once engaged
to Tallent.
He resigned on June 12, a month
before the mail fraud conviction was
thrown out.
Now, Cave has returned to private
practice, asking Tarrant County
judges to consider him as a court-ap
pointed attorney for the indigent.
One judge said he wouldn’t assign
Cave cases because of the trial.
“I’m not going to appoint any
body who I think has engaged in un
ethical or improper conduct,” said
Judge Joe Drago, who testified
against Cave in the trial.
But the county’s five other felony
judges described Cave as the biggest
bargain in years for defendants who
need court-appointed attorneys.
State District Judge Clifford Davis
said,“Every joker that’s indigent
couldn’t afford to hire a lawyer that
competent. You look at the compe
tency of a lawyer to represent cli
ents; that’s my standard.
“Ten or 12 years as a district
judge ought to give him a wealth of
expertise.”
Cave said he went to every judge
except Drago and asked that he be
considered for court-appointed
cases.

Mildly overweight women are be
ing sought for a study on the effects
of behavior modification on weight
control.
Women who are 20 percent to 40
percent overweight are needed for
the study, which is being conducted
as part of a dissertation by Darrel
Turner, a fourth-year doctoral stu
dent in clinical psychology at Texas
A&M.
“This is not for the severely over
weight or those with significant med
ical problems,” Turner said. “It is a
very slow and gradual weight-loss
program.”
Turner located subjects by adver
tising in The Battalion and the
Bryan-CoIIege Station Eagle and
placing advertisements around cam
pus. He has gotten about 60 respon
dents so far.
The study, which will last from 10
to 12 weeks, is scheduled to begin
next week. For most of the study,
participants will monitor themselves,
but weekly meetings also will be
held.
“The meeting is a lecture and dis
cussion format, and they will be
turning in weekly reports which they
keep up on a daily basis,” Turner
said.
The participants will be divided
into two groups that will be sub-

Turner expects the weigh

in agricultural journalism at A&l

Enrollment in agricultural journa
lism has increased by 100 percent
compared to last year, says Dr.
Dwayne Suter, associate dean of the
College of Agriculture.
Suter says the increase is not com
pletely unexpected and attributes
much of it to an increase in recruit
ing efforts.
“We are facing problems in not
being able to supply the number of
graduates in ag journalism that in
dustry and other employers are re
questing,” Suter says.
Agricultural journalism combines
the study of agriculture and journa
lism to prepare students for work in
agricultural businesses and agricul
turally related organizations. This
semester there are 43 students ma
joring in ag journalism, 16 of whom
are freshmen. This year’s freshmen
enrollment has increased from seven
students last year.
“They are first and foremost pro
fessional journalists,” Suter says.
“The distinctive difference is that we
allow and encourage them to select a
technical area or nonjournalistic
subject area.”
About 22 percent of the American
population is employed in agricul-
~ dd
ture and related fields, Suter says.
Agricultural businesses employ jour
nalists who can write about their in
dustry and are professional commu
nicators.
A number of agricultural journa
lism graduates also are employed by
universities, media organizations
and government agencies.
“Much of the staff on the Hill, in
cluding some congressmen and sen
ators, have requested my assistance
in locating ag journalism graduates
to work as staff assistants,” Suter
says.
The agricultural journalism pro
gram is administered by the College
of Agriculture and the College of
Liberal Arts. The College of Liberal
Arts oversees journalism and related
subject matters.
Dr. Susan DeBonis, agriculture
representative of the Journal 1 *
partment, is chairman of ^
range planning committeel f
cultural journalism.
“There are some things t;
would like to see happen for J ‘
nalisrn,” she says. “I would®'
it grow, and I think itis? 01 '
happen.”
DeBonis says it is sometiif-
cult to get students to realize*:
