AUSTIN (AP) — Predicting
Texas is among three top contend
ers in the race for the $4.4 billion su
percollider project. Gov. Bill Clem
ents said Wednesday he will go to
Washington next week to talk strat
egy with the state’s congressional
delegation.
“I am cautiously optimistic,”
Clements said. “I think that it’s us
against the field, if you will. We’re a
long ways from getting there, but
we’re working hard at it.”
Federal officials recently an
nounced that seven states are still in
the running to become home to the
52-mile-long underground atom
smasher, the largest research project
of its kind.

Clements said that in his view,
three states will wind up on “the
short-short list” of the U.S. Energy
Department — Texas, Illinois and
North Carolina.
Texas has proposed a site south of
the Dallas-Fort Worth area and of
fered a number of financial induce
ments for the huge project, which
will be used in high-energy physics
research.
Clements said he will visit Wash
ington next Wednesday, taking top
fficia'
officials of the state’s National Re
search Laboratory Commission with
him.
“The whole team will be in Wash
ington on Wednesday the 3rd to talk
stragety as well as tactics about what
we’re going to do to gel the supercol
lider,” he said.
Asked how he ranked the state’s
chances, the governor replied, “I
think they’re excellent.”
Clements’ comments came during
an impromptu news conference fol
lowing a speech in College Station. A
tape recording of the session was
made available to news reporters at
the Capitol by the governor’s staff.
The governor described himself
as “up to my eyebrows in this on a
daily basis, an hourly basis,” and he
said he expects the Energy Depart
ment to pare the seven-state list
down to three within the next few
months.
“That would be my speculation,”
Clements said. “I have no inside in
formation, I just believe (that will
happen). 1 think what (the energy-
secretary) w ill do in July is take the
seven-list and have a short-short
list.”
The much-sought supercollider
project is expected to create thou
sands of construction and other jobs
while being built, and some 2,500
permanentjobs when completed.

FORT WORTH (AP) — A hospi
tal held liable for the death of a man
who died after being given a massive
anti-cancer drug overdose has
agreed to pay $11.1 million to the
man’s family, officials said.
The family of William O. Wray Jr.
will receive the money under a set
tlement in which a judge held All
Saints Episcopal Hospital liable for
his 1984 death.
Wray, a 45-year-old cancer victim,
died after he was given seven times
the usual dosage of the drug Velban.
Court depositions show the overdose
came after a hospital pharmacist
misunderstood a prescription given
verbally.
Wray took the drug for Five days
and became so ill he had to be ad
mitted to the hospital. He died June
9, 1984, of infections and internal
and external bleeding brought on by
the lethal dose that destroyed his im
mune system, doctors said in court
depositions.
Wray’s widow and three children
will receive an immediate payment
of $1.5 million. The remaining $9.6
million will come over a 30- to 60-
year period from an annuity fund
established by the hospital for $1.7
million.
The settlement, approved Tues
day by State District Judge Michael
Schattman, is one of the largest med
ical malpractice awards in Tarrant
County history, attorneys said.
Lawyers for the Wray family and
the hospital said the judge’s action in
holding the hospital liable was nearly
unprecedented in settlement
agreements.
Hospital lawyer Grant Liser said a
finding in a civil suit usually comes
only after a trial. If the parties to a
suit reach a settlement, he said, the
defendant normally does not admit
liability.
Hospital officials agreed to the
unusual settlement-judgment
agreement, the largest ever against
the hospital, because Liser and All
Saints President James Schuessler
feared a jury might award punitive
damages that would bankrupt the
hospital, Liser said.
“It could have put All Saints out
of business,” the lawyer said.
Wray’s wife, Frances, and her
three children said they were re
lieved by the settlement and the
judge’s ruling.
“It’s a terrible price to pay to bring
a message to the community,” she
said. “Maybe it will make people
more aware that things do go on that
never get publicized.”

HUNTSVILLE (AP) — A death-
row inmate scheduled to die this
week was denied execution stays by
two courts Tuesday, but another in
mate slated for lethal injection
Wednesday won a reprieve.
The Texas Court of Criminal Ap
peals in Austin and State District
Judge George Walker in Houston
both denied requests to stay the
scheduled Thursday execution of
convicted killer Raymond Landry,
officials said.
Landry still can appeal to the fed
eral court system. The 38-year-old
inmate was convicted of the August
6, 1982 shooting death of Kosmas
Prittas, 33, the owner of the Dairy
Maid restaurant in Houston.
order to review claims of mental in
competency tiled by Selvage’s attor
ney, David Cunningham.
Selvage’s reprieve was granted
under a U.S. Supreme Court ruling
that prohibits a condemned person
from being executed if he does not
understand the pending execution.
Selvage was sentenced to death
for shooting Albert Garza, a Harris
County deputy sheriff, to death on
July 30, 1979.
Garza, a deputy constable before
joining the sheriffs department, was
trying to prevent a robbery at a
Houston jewelry store at the time.
Meanwhile, State District Judge
Joe Kegans of Houston moved the
Wednesday execution of John
Henry Selvage, 37, to March 30 in
Cunningham also filed an appeal
for Selvage with U.S. District Judge
Norman Black of Houston, to raise
an issue similar to one expected to be
ruled within months by the Supreme
Court in the case of another Texas
convicted killer.
