WATCH for BARGAINS EM Change in debate site will cost Republicans HOUSTON (AP) — Organizers of tonight’s Republican presidential debate said the production will cost them about $70,000 more than a similar program staged earlier this year for Democrats because of a change in sites. “I’m raising the money so I know,” Kevin Burnette, president of Southern Political Consultants, said Tuesday as crews for William F. Buckley Jr.’s “Firing Line” program were setting up the stage at the new George R. Brown Convention Cen ter. The show’s special segment will be the First debate among the six 1988 Republican presidential contenders. The Democratic presidential can didates had a similar debate on Buckley’s show, which was also broadcast from Houston on July 1. Today’s debate will be aired live from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. CST. Candidates scheduled to appear are Vice President George Bush, Sen. Robert Dole of Kansas, Rep. Jack Kemp of New York, former Secretary of State Alexander Haig, former TV evangelist Pat Robertson and former Delaware Gov. Pierre S. “Pete” Du Pont. Burnette said the Democrats’ two- hour appearance on public tele vision this summer cost $230,000 to air from the W’ortham Center, a nearby performing arts complex that celebrated its opening earlier in the year. He put the price tag for today’s af fair at $300,000, with additional costs blamed on television produc tion necessities for the Brown Cen ter auditorium. “Wortham is very, very nice,” he said. “Wortham is an incredible fa cility. “They (production crews) love it. The lights are in place. The cameras plugs are in place. It’s there and re ady to roll. “Here it’s exacdy the opposite. It’s not built for TV.” The “Firing Line” program is the first television production staged in side the Brown Center auditorium, which seats about 4,000 people. The Wortham Center was not available for the Republicans because of an other event. Burnette said despite production problems, ticket demand has been heavy. About 400 requests for press credentials also have oeen made, up slightly from the July affair. No spectator tickets have been sold, although 1,400 have been di vided among the candidates, wl of whom may be selling themtoraj campaign money, he said. Anoikj 200 tickets were given to the Teal Republican Party, with the reraEl der going to firms that have inidcl written the event. “By the time of this debate, tl candidates have a clear idea of nil I their mission is,” Burnette sail “Their goal has been to different:I themselves to attract more vok[ teers and more money to tkj team.” Producer Warren Steibeh hoped some fireworks would out during the question-andansuI segment in which former Deiii!.| cratic National Committee Qaif man Robert Strauss will join Budlrl in questioning the contenders, “I hope all the competidvensl c onies out, because all six people,t| of whom have a lot to offer, arecocl peting,” Steibel said. "When ikI compete, you want to be the winul and the other people tobethelostrl The competition is for real, super-polite is not.” Burnette said he also was look! for a lively session. “The producer wants to showi ,I fast these guys are on theirfeet.'l*| said.

I don’t understand how people could stand and let a thing like that happen.” The girl told police *he was riding her l icycle on her way to visit a cousin about 3 p.m. Sunday when a man who appeared to be in his early 20s began jogging alongside her and ordered her to stop. The girl tried to get away from him, but he grabbed her from behind and yanked her off the bicycle, police said. At least four people were within earshot but refused to help her as the man took her behind the Juanita Craft Recreation Center, where the attack occurred, the victim’s mother said Monday. Police investigator Devon Davis said police were un able to locate any of the witnesses, although the girl gave descriptions of several. “It sounds like several people at least acknowledged her but didn’t make any move to help,” he said. The man grabbed the girl around the neck and forced her to push her bike along as they walked across a footbridge and through a vacant softball field. Tt; I girl told police she shouted for several people neank I field to help her, but they did nothing. She said that as she and the man rounded a teic court next to the recreation center, she again criedc: I and caught the attention of a man practiring teiu shots, but the player did not respond. “AH he did was look at her, and then he went bad f: I playing tennis," the mother said. “I wish I knew*k| that man was, because I would like to ask himhowli could do that.” The man dragged the girl behind the hedge,wbl he choked her and threatened to strangie herifik| called out again.

The amend ments are part of an eight-amend ment Build Texas package that agri culturists are praising. Amendment 4 gives the state the authority to make loans and grants directly to private enterprises. Amendment 6 provides the money to be used. Money that would be set aside for agricultural businesses includes $45 million in general obligation bonds and $500 million in revenue bonds, Hightower said. T he amendments are needed to create a pool of capital and encour age banks to loan money to small ag ricultural enterprises that they may not have experience with, High tower said. “You’re not talking about Financ ing another empty building in Dallas or Houston or Austin,” he said. “You’re talking about putting rela tively small amounts of money in the form of repayable capital into enter prises that will return mighty big gains for our state’s economy.” Hagan McMahon of the Indepen dent Bankers Association of Texas said the amendments would be “the first step in diversifying this Texas economy that has been capital-defi cient.” “This is a tremendous incentive for community banks to support the farm and agricultural movement,” he said. Charles Whitfield, the head of Brazos Food Company in College Station, said his company would beneFit from passage of the amend ments. Hightower said a special board would review all the loans to ensure that they are sound.

Federal judge delays trial for frail against Moody because of illnett HOUSTON (AP) — A federal judge postponed the federal fraud trial of Galveston insurance heir Shearn Moody Jr. after the de fendant was hospitalized with high blood pressure and heart problems. Moody was taken to the hospital Friday after complaining of chest pains, dizziness and shortness of breath, said Dr. Amin Karim. U.S. District Judge Ross Sterling post poned the trial until at least next week, and Karim is to provide an up date on Moody’s prognosis Thurs day. The trial previously was delayed for two weeks because Sterling was ill. Mae Nacol, one of his attorneys, said, “Shearn is very, very ill. It is life-threatening.” Karim said Moody underwent a coronary arteriogram Monday — a major diagnostic procedure used to determine if the arteries are clogged — after preliminary tests indicated his blood pressure was dangerously high. Prosecutors, however, suggested Moody may have brought the symp toms on himself by not taking his medication. Karim responded, “I don’t think he is pretending. He’s in a life- threatening situation until " out what’s going on.” Moody is standing trial counts of mail and wirefra^ legedly cheating the Moodv^ tion out of nearly $1.5 F what prosecutors claim was| to pay lawyers in his I case. Moody was ousted as ate)! the foundation earlier this A federal indictment Moody had abused his pO- the board to funnel grants' 1 ’ zations that otherwise w'° have received them.
