Convicted murderer plans
to fight with executioners
: 51,11 Ir
be
tell.
HUNTSVILLE (AP) — A Hous
ton man with a history of violence
vowed to fight his executioners if
they tried to put him to death before
dawn Thursday for the slaying of a
woman during a burglary eight
years ago.
Calvin Williams, 27, faced lethal
injection for the 1980 strangulation
of Emily Anderson. This was his
fourth execution date.
“I’m not going to walk in there
and just hop up on that table,” Wil
liams said in an interview last week.
“I’m going to fight them. There’s no
doubt in my mind what I’m going to
do because I don’t want to die for
something I didn’t do.”
Williams acknowledged breaking
into the apartment where the
woman was slain, but insisted the
burglary occurred a month before
the killing. His fingerprints, how
ever, were found in Anderson’s sto
len car, recovered a few blocks from
Williams’ home.
Prison officials have said they
were prepared for any resistance by
an inmate en route to the death
chamber. Williams’ mood Wednes
day after being moved to a small
holding cell outside the chamber was
described as calm.
“He told me he would see me
later,” said fellow death row inmate
Gary Graham. “He felt like the state
was about to kill him.”
Williams’ attorneys contended in
appeals the Texas death penalty law
is flawed in that it does not allow ju
rors to consider mitigating circum
stances and forces them to return a
death verdict.
A federal judge in Houston was
considering the request Wednesday.

a full-time semester. He’s making
whatever progress he can.”
Carter says the general percent
ages are computed by following a
freshman class for six years; close to
70 percent still are enrolled through
the fourth year.
“We consider that if they’re still
enrolled through the fourth year,
they are making progress toward a
degree and will eventually gradua
te,” Carter says.
The athletes’ high graduation
rates are partly the product of the
Athletic Department's academic pro
gram, Hunt says.
The department’s system of study
hall, tutoring sessions, academic
counseling and mandatory class at
tendance is designed to develop the
students’ self-discipline and time-
management skills, he says.
“We reinforce positive behavior
and do whatever the case may be for
negative behavior,” Hunt says. “We
can act as a friend or as a big
brother. But we can also act as par
ents — we know how to pat people
on the back and know how to kick
them in the rear end.”
Besides this system of reward and
punishment, the academic program
is designed to help the athletes bud
get their time.
“Our biggest problem is time
management for athletes,” Hunt
says. “Even in the offseason . . . they
stay busy. Some people talk about
the glamour of student athletics, and
it’s true when you’re winning, but it
takes a lot of time.”
Basketball players can miss three
days of school when they travel to an
out-of-town game, and they still
have to keep up in their classes. Even
during the off-season, athletes have
workouts and practice, he says.
“It’s an especially big strain for
freshmen to manage their time,”
Hunt says.
So all new students (freshmen and
transfers) must attend study hall
four or five nights per week for two
hours each night, he says. Athletes
who are on scholastic probation
must attend, too.
“They’re monitored by a graduate
assistant, and there are tutors avail
able to help them during study hall,”
Hunt says.
The department has a file of
about 125 tutors for all subjects.
They are either graduate students or
advanced undergraduates who are
willing to give their time to help the
athletes. Graduate students are paid
$5 per hour and undergraduates are
paid $4 per hour.
“Their main function is not only
enlightenment, it’s to save time,”
Hunt says. “Tutors know what’s im
portant in a class, they know' what
the students need to grasp and they
can get down to the nitty-gritty.”
