IX/A INHriVfV DALLAS (AP) — Federal funds intended for utility bills of poor peo ple were instead credited to the ac count of the woman who ran the en ergy assistance program for the Dallas County Community Action Committee, a newspaper reported Monday. Payments of $2,150 in federal funds to the Garland Power 8c Light account of former DCCAC energy coordinator Carolyn Smith are being investigated by the Texas attorney general’s office and the Dallas County district attorney’s office, sources told the Dallas Morning News. Smith, 43, was laid off from her job at DCCAC last fall because of a funding shortage. She would not say whether she received any DCCAC money. 2 Bdrm - 1 ki Bath Condo. Own room share bath $250. ABP 822-4239. 109t3/10 The 22-year DCCAC employee first denied that the credited ac count was hers. But she later told the newspaper, after the account num ber was read to her, that it “sounded familiar” and could he hers. She was unwilling to produce a utility bill to compare account numbers. Smith, asked whether she was aware of money credited to her ac count, replied: “I’m not going to an swer. I can’t explain it. “If it was done, I wouldn’t have said anything. They (DCCAC) owe me enough money to cover all of that. I’ve never done anything wrong or that I’m ashamed of.” She said when she was laid off in November, DCCAC Acting Director Mary Baines told her she probably would not be rehired. "I didn’t appeal because Mary Baines said they had been checking energy . . . (programs and) 1 wouldn’t be able to come back be cause of some allegations,” Smith said. “I said, ‘If I’m guilty of any thing, I’m no guiltier than anyone else.’ ” Yvonne Ewell, president of the DCCAC board, did not immediately return phone calls from the Asso ciated Press on Monday.

South, Southwest Houston Area. (713) 499- 2664. 109t3/10 EL PASO (AP) — A beating and a roasting are livening up two primary races in El Paso. Robert McCluskey, running for state representative in the 71st Dis trict, has said he is mystified at a beating he received last week be cause the assailant did not take the $200 in McCluskey’s wallet. And 41st District Judge John Mc- Kellips, stung by a farcical videotape produced by the El Paso Bar Asso ciation and shown at the bar’s annual banquet, has produced radio adver tisements that imply his opponent had more to do with the tape than she really did. McCluskey told police he was beaten with a baseball bat or pipe outside his northeast El Paso apart ment shortly before midnight last Thursday. He was treated for cuts to the head at Hotel Dieu Hospital and re leased, police said. “I didn’t see anything,” McClus key told KTSM-AM. “I tell you what’s funny. They didn’t take my wallet, and I had $200 in my wallet.” McCluskey said he didn’t think his opponent would have him beaten, but then added: "I guess it leaves that question mark since nobody took any money.” McCluskey’s only opponent in the Democratic primary, Jim Allen, scoffed at McCluskey’s implication. “We certainly had nothing to do with anything like that,” he said. “I don’t want to make any comments on Mr. McCluskey’s personal life style.” Allen characterized McCluskey’s statements as “a last-ditch attempt to get some attention.” “I was hoping this campaign wouldn’t get so low,” Allen said. “I’m very disappointed that we’re down to this.” McCluskey did not return re peated calls Monday from the Asso ciated Press. The bar association’s video roast ing of McKellips poked fun at his personal life, which has been charac terized by six marriages. Needed part-time delivery person.

More than 1,000 depositors met at Harlingen’s Municipal Auditorium and voted overwhelmingly in favor of proceeding with a lawsuit in an at tempt to recover some of their assets and damages from Houston-based Champion Savings Association, for merly First Savings Association of Orange. Officials at Champion could not be reached for comment Monday; About $75 million in deposits has been frozen since last May 12, when the state took over Rio Grande. Many of the 6,249 depositors are re tired people who had their life sav ings in uninsured accounts. Their lawsuit against the Houston thrift would seek about $18 million of those assets. Rio Grande was the only thrift in Texas not covered by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corp., which insures accounts up to $100,000. Schedule (Continued front! page 1) proved most of the revisions in the 1988-89 University Regulations, but sent back to committee a section that proposed an extension of the Q- drop deadline for undergraduate and graduate students. Also, an emergency resolution was distributed before the meeting that “expresses deep regret” that women and ethnic members are not lepresented oa the Presidential Search Advisory Committee and urges President Frank E. Vandiver to “use all influence available to him to effect a rernemdy for this unfor tunate omission.” Due to time constraints, however, the emergency resolution never came up for discussion. The Texas Department of Cot munity Affairs, which awards n monitors federal and state grant! social service agencies, said merits to Smith’s utility acco would violate rules governing energy assistance program. “From our standpoint, it’s a use of funds, and therefore it wo be a disallowed cost and (DCCAC) would owe us this moo back," said Larry Crumpton, director of the department. Crumpton said department tigators in September turned o records of the utility assistance other programs to the attorneys ^ w '^ a eral’s office “with the assumpn that some criminal prosecuo would be evaluated. DCCAC records on file withGi land Power 8c Light, obtained by newspaper, show the utility accoij of Smith received DCCAC funds taling $2,150 in eight payments tween 1985 and 1987. De la Madrid will outline achievements MEXICO CITY (AP) — Pres: dent Miguel de la Madrid pit pared on Monday to outline lit achievements of his new in!!? tion-fighting program, which lop economic officials claimed hi been successful in its first twt months. Budget Secretary Pedro Asp told a meeting of state financii officials on Sunday that the sub: lization of the economy nowwi “within reach.” But he cautioned that ti achieve such a result "requirestlx maintenance of discipline, ordw coordination and much workb all.” Letting up on the inflatioi fight, he said, would mean a it versal of the gains achieved k far. Another government officii Treasury Secretary Gustavo Pc tricioli, told the meeting that tk new program has given Mexican 1 a chance to show “we can achiw important objectives throui agreement.” The program, he said, "shoi continue having success.” De la Madrid was scheduled deliver a speech Monday night the program, called the Econoi Solidarity Pact, which he unveili in mid-December. The government newspaper National reported that in speech, de la Madrid “willex[ the behavior of the national ecoi omy in the last two months the Economic Solidarty Pactw: signed.” Government officials hat been encouraged by inflationfi| ures that, they said, showed easing in February of the pi spiral that has pressured ll economy in recent years. Based on those reports, de Madrid late last month a: nounced he was stepping u inflation-fighting pace and or dered a March freeze on offn prices and on the exchange ra! of the peso currency. He also authorized a 3 perci increase in the minimum wage, 8,000 pesos a day or about $3.: which was a much smaller crease than had been expected. Aspe told the state financial of ficials that the government’s gram did not constitute a “shod plan, the name given to drasii measures taken by Brazil and Ai gentina to rid their economies hyper-inflation. Mexico’s plan, he said, doesn# include a “genet alized controlo: prices and salaries” such as countries have imposed.
