proved Tuesday by the Texas Bond
Review Board and Gatesville ap
peared to have the edge over Am
arillo for the new unit.
A legal roadblock halted earlier
plans to build a prison in each city.
Gatesville seems the likely site for
the 2,250-bed facility because site
preparation has been done there,
said Texas prisons director Jim Ly-
naugh. Under the original plan, the
Gatesville prison was to be built be
fore the Amarillo prison, he said.
Prison board chairman Charles
Terrell said his panel will make a fi
nal decision probably within two
weeks.
Terrell and Gov. Bill Clements,
Texas leads
record growth
in contracting
bond board chairman, said they will
work to see that two maximum-secu
rity prisons eventually are built in
addition to the Mark Michael maxi
mum-security unit built last year at
Palestine.
Amarillo or Gatesville could get a
facility that is different from maxi
mum security, Terrell said.
“We have a commitment to those
two cities. . . . We will fulfill our com
mitment to them,” he said. “We told
them they’d have prisons, and they
will. It’s a matter of time, or a matter
of the type of unit.
After the bond board approved
$153.6 million in prison bonds,
Clements said, “I fully intend to
have that second Michael unit built. .
. . We have now 50 percent of our in
mates that are hardened, violent
criminals and we need that additio
nal capacity of the maximum-secu
rity unit.
“It’s unfortunate that we had a
conflict in the legislative package
that authorized the 10,400 beds, and
yet it didn’t specify specifically a sec
ond Michael unit.”

DALLAS (AP) — Texas compa
nies were awarded $15.9 billion in
defense contracts last year, a $2.4
billion increase over 1986, and the
state leads the Southwest’s record
growth in defense contracting,
according to Defense Department
figures.
The state’s obligated value of de
fense awards rose 17.8 percent last
year from the 1986 level of $ 13.5 bil
lion, officials from the Defense Con
tract Administration Services Region
office in Dallas said Monday. The of
fice manages defense contracts in
Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Ari
zona, Arkansas and Louisiana.
UT governing body OKs new smoking rul&
AUSTIN (AP) — Campus smok
ing rules similar to a city ordinance
and a strengthened policy against
sexual harassment of students have
been approved by a University of
Texas governing body.
The proposed policies, which had
been debated several times in recent
months, were approved without dis
cussion Monday by the University
Council. The proposals will be sen!
to UT President William Cunning
ham for his consideration.
If endorsed by Cunningham, the
smoking policy would make most
parts of the campus smoke-free. The
policy emphasizes the rights of non-
smokers and limits smoking to a few
designated areas.
The policy provides that the pref-

Official denies ordering son’s release
The office said the number of
contracts awarded to Texas firms in
creased from 21,638 in 1986 to
22,905 in 1987.
Those figures don’t include major
contracts that are administered di
rectly by military services, which
means the state actually received
more defense contracts, officials
from the Dallas defense office said.
Texas leads the fivo-state region
in the value of defense contracts
awarded and is the second largest re
cipient of federal defense dollars in
the nation behind California.
The state accounted for about 70
percent of the region’s value of de
fense contracts. Arizona was second
with $3.4 billion.
The Southwest region’s total was
$22.6 billion at the end of 1987,
compared with 19.2 billion last year.
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A for
mer police administrator says he did
not order other police officials to
drive his son home after he was
stopped and checked for drunken
driving and failed a breathalyzer
test.
Capt. Alfred Toscano resigned his
rank of assistant police chief last
week amid the controversy sur
rounding his son: In a statement re
leased Monday, he said inaccurate
news accounts prompted him to
speak publiclyabout the case.
Sgt. Bill Anders, who was in
charge of the department’s Driving
While Intoxicated Task Force, is fac
ing permanent suspension and an
other officer, who is accused of alter
ing a breathalyzer document, faces a
three-day suspension over the inci
dent involving Arthur Toscano, 20.
The senior Toscano, 48, said it
was Anders who decided on his son’s
release.
Arthur Toscano was arrested on a
drunken driving charge on Dec. 10
and taken to police headquarters
where he failed a breathalyzer test.
His Father was called at home and
the young man was released and
driven home by police.
“At no time in my conversation
with Sgt. Anders did I order him to
release my son, nor did I say any
thing to intimate or imply or even
solicit that he release my son,” Tos
cano said.
Police and Bexar County prosecu
tors are investigating allegations that
someone tried to remove the
younger Toscano’s name from the
breath test log. ||»J^
