HOUSTON (AP) — World oil
prices continue to depend on cycles,
uncertain behavior and a vulnerable
management system established by
OPEC after last year’s price collapse,
according to an annual survey re
leased Tuesday.
“The industry is operating in the
midst of the most uncertain and vol
atile situation in the Middle East
since the early 1980s, making the ge
opolitics once again a pivotal but un
predictable ingredient for the direc
tion and level of the future of oil
prices and the stablility of oil sup
ply,” a World Oil Trends survey by
Arthur Andersen & Co. and Cam
bridge Energy Research Associates
said.
The joint analysis of the industry
by Andersen, a nationwide account
ing firm, and Cambridge, an energy
research firm, was released a day be
fore OPEC members met in Vienna,
Austria for their second ministerial
conference of 1987.
Twelve of the oil producing states
have said they hope to keep prices at
$18 per barrel. Iran alone has been
pushing for a $2 per barrel increase.
The Andersen-Cambridge survey
concludes that prices should remain
around $18 ana then increase.
“But new surprises may be in
store,” the survey says. “One must
not forget that the world oil industry
is an industry in which, during much
of its history, there often has been a
manager or a management group —
sometimes weak, sometimes strong.”
The survey describes the $18
price as not an economic price but a
olitical price and one that could not
e supported in a free market.
“The free market, left to itself,
would push prices lower, at least
short term,” said Joseph Stanislaw,
Cambridge managing director for
Europe and the Middle East.
Daniel Yergin, Cambridge presi
dent, said the 1986 price collapse —
during which oil prices tumbled to
below $10 per barrel — and the sub
sequent rebound to $18 did not alter
key fundamentals of supply and de
mand to the extent industry experts
might have expected.
“Increases in non-OPEC produc
tion elsewhere have more than made
up for the declines in the United
States,” Yergin said. “This has im
portant economic and geopolitical
implications, including strong in
creases in U.S. oil imports ”
At the same time, however, the
survey cautions that the full effects
of the price collapse may notyetbe
known because forecasting methods
now used were developed during
times of relatively high and stable
prices.
“The response to the fall in prices
could occur with a considerable time
lag, just as the responses to the price
increases of the 1970’s took a num
ber of years to show their full vigor,”
the survey report said.
According to the survey, what has
remained constant is a gap between
world production and capadty.
Officials say man
took police car,
tried to kill sheriff
HANKAMER (AP) — A man who
was handcuffed after he was
stopped for a traffic violation was ac
cused of taking over the controls of a
police car and trying to run down a
deputy sheriff, officials said Tues
day.
James Lee Palmer, 31, of Monroe,
La., was charged with attempted
capital murder in connection with
the incident, a Chambers County
spokesman who asked not to be
identified said.
Police said Palmer was in the back
seat of a patrol car with his arms
handcuffed behind his back when he
managed to slip his arms under his
feet and took control of the car early
Monday. A companion, who re
mained in the back seat, ducked for
cover.
Palmer also is charged with unau
thorized use of a vehicle and posses
sion of a controlled substance, the
county spokesman said Tuesday.
Bond for all three charges was set at
$380,000, she said.
Palmer, who was shot in the leg by
a deputy as he attempted to flee, was
in good condition at a local hospital,
the spokesman said.
Palmer’s two companions remain
in jail Tuesday on bonds of $100,000
each, the spokesman said. Otha Ray
Moore, 30, was held on a charge of
possession of a controlled substance
and Willie Lee Wallace, 33, was held
on a charge of possession of cocaine.
Moore and Wallace are also from
Monroe, La.
The men were stopped for a traf
fic violation on Interstate 10 near
Farm Road 1724 about 12:30 a.m.
Monday, according to Chambers
County sheriffs officials.
Deputy Jon Hernandez said he
discovered a small amount of co
caine during a search of Palmer.
Drug dogs searching the car recov
ered $15,000 cash and an additional
small quantity of cocaine and mari
juana, he said.
Officials call
hazing likely
in fraternity
SAN MARCOS (AP) -Offi
cials at Southwest Texas State
University say they have found
evidence of serious hazing by
members of a second campus fra
ternity.
John Garrison, dean of stu
dents, said he wouldn’t comment
on the case until an investigation
is completed.
“W e’re pretty sure we have a
hazing case,” he said. “I feel like
we have enough information now
to indicate that a violation has oc
curred.”
The alleged hazing, involving
the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity
chapter, occurred in a “series of
incidents” involving pledge activ
ities this fall semester, Garrison
said.
Disciplinary action is being
considered against both the fra
ternity and individual members,
Garrison said.
John Denton, a Tau Kappa Ep
silon member, said university of
ficials informed the fraternity
that it would be told of discipi-
nary action. “It wasn’t a big, bad
incident, but any incident is a bad
incident these days,” he said.
Last month, the university sus
pended the Kappa Sigma frater
nity after a pleage was found at 4
a.m. in a rural area, shirtless in
42-degree weather, covered with
oil and wearing burlap shorts.
Garrison said that the Tau
Kappa Epsilon incidents under
investigation are “at least as se
rious, or more serious” than that.
Elementary students participate
in experiment banning television
WHITE SETTLEMENT (AP) — Ricky Shelhorse
confessed to his diary that he wanted to die at the begin
ning of his week without television.
Teacher Lisa Baker, seeking to get the students inter
ested in other things, pulled the plug on fifth-grade
classes for one excruciating week.
The 70 North Elementary School students strained
to refrain from watching a single television program.
At 12:44 p.m. Monday, the video-starved students
chanted “TEE-vee, TEE-vee,” as the 25-year-old tea
cher turned on the tube.
Baker said she organized the mass abstinence to stir
the students out of a passive existence, promote read
ing, stimulate creativity and imagination, and to give
families a chance to get reacquainted.
The results: students seemed more attentive in class,
they handed in unprecedented numbers of extra-credit
assignments, romped outdoors and rediscovered
household pets.
“Kids have been writing that they’ve had better fam
ily ties,” Baker said. “That makes me feel good. But
then some of them also said their family was right on
the edge. They were about sick of each other.”
Students kept accounts of their experiences in ajour-
nal, and their writings revealed siblings fought more
and one mother stormed out of the house while her
husband guarded the tube and turned up the volume.
Six children decided not to join their 70 classmates.
“I’d rather not torture myself,” 11-year-old Quentin
Solomon said. “I’m just hooked on it.”
At the beginning of the week, Baker’s students
hummed a funeral dirge to a television set veiled in
black. Baker said the experiment, even if unsuccessful,
would show students how important television was to
their lives.
“It was frightening,” she said. “I told the kids to be
gin with, ‘I’m not down on TV. It can do some good
things. It can be educational.’ But I think that they are
consumed by it and they fall into the temptation to just
sit.”
One mother pasted a sign over the family’s main tele
vision that said, “Go outside and play.”
