Robertson court case dismissed WASHINGTON (AP) — A fed eral judge on Monday dismissed GOP presidential candidate Pat Rob ertson’s $35 million libel suit against a former congressman, who said the court’s action unmasked Robertson “as the fraud he is.” Robertson, complaining he could not campaign and pursue the suit at the same time, had asked for the dis missal. He called Monday’s action “a real victory.” U.S. District Judge Joyce Hens Green formally ended the suit against former Rep. Paul N. McGlos- key Jr., R-Calif., who had questioned Robertson’s Korean War record, af ter Robertson agreed to pay court costs. Green signed a brief order dis missing the case “with prejudice,” which means that McCloskey is le gally the victor in the dispute. “This is a confirmation of my in tegrity,” McCloskey said in a tele phone interview from his home in San Francisco. “I don’t like at the age of 60 to be called a pathological liar all over the United States. “He is admitting that he is the one who is the liar.” Robertson accepted the court- costs condition in a one-sentence let ter from his attorney, Douglas V. Rigler, that was delivered to the judge’s chambers by messenger. But Robertson, in a campaign ap pearance in Wichita Falls, said the judge “gave me what I consider a real victory.” “She denied him any court costs — any damages, I should say,” he said. “He asked for $400,000. And I 'have the privilege of suing him once the primary is over.” However, in an opinion issued last week, Green quoted — and under lined — a passage from a 1985 fed eral appeals court opinion that stated: “Dismissal of an action with prejudice is a complete adjudication of the issues presented by the pleadings and is a bar to further ac tion between the parties.” McCloskey’s attorney George Lehner said he understood that this citation means his client cannot be sued again over any statements he makes about Robertson’s war re cord. Under terms of the dismissal, Robertson must pay court fees, printing costs and court reporters’ fees, but not McCloskey’s,at/pi;ney’s fees, estimated at $400, If Robertson had rejected Green’s dismissal, he would have had to go to court on Tuesday to begin the trial, which was expected to last about three weeks. Gore predicts leading status after primaries HOUSTON (AP) — Tennessee Sen. Albert Gore Jr. said Monday two leaders would emerge from the Democratic presidential field after Super Tuesday balloting and he would be one of them. “Something’s happening out there,” Gore said, wrapping up his Texas campaign with an airport ap pearance in Houston, his fifth visit to the city in the past three weeks. “The undecided vote is still large but it is breaking our way,” Gore said. “We are getting reports from all over the Super Tuesday area and all indicate exactly the same thing. Our campaign has the momentum.” Gore, who left Texas for more last-day campaigning in Florida, said his polls throughout the South show him surpassing Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis and Missouri Rep. Richard Gephardt and trailing only the Rev. Jesse Jackson. “We have gained more in the last 24 hours than any other candidate,” he said. “If our people get to the polls, we are going to pull off a ma jor surprise to those people who were beginning to think it was a two- person race. It’s going to be a two- person race all right, but they’re going to have a different two candi dates in mind.” Gore, who won his first primary Saturday in Wyoming, refused to identify the candidate he saw as also emerging as a front-runner after Tuesday’s elections. “I’m not going to pick the field,” he said. “You’ll be able to see the pat tern develop.” Asked what would happen if he finished fourth, he replied: “I refuse to accept that. That’s not going to happen. Write it down and check it twice. We’re going to come out with a very surprising victory.” Gore characterized negative Ge phardt advertising as “a sign of last- minute desperation campaigning.” He also described Dukakis as hav ing a total lack of foreign policy ex perience and said the Massachusetts governor’s economic policy was “based on a single gimmick.” “That is the illusion that more tax ollectors are (miner to solve the fiscal Tuesday GRADUATE STUDY OPPORTUNITIES: Dr. Foster of the graduate biologyd* partment will speak at 4:30 p.m. in 113 Biological Sciences Building East.

Map Discussion: A large trough of low pressure in the Eastern Pacific bringingth« | next Pacific cold front into the Rockies while a strong northerly jet stream pushes an upper level low pressure center to North Central Texas. This helps induce a frontal wave (low pressure) over Arkansas. Combined with moisture from the Gull] this will produce precipitation from the lower Mississippi Valley northward to the Great Lakes. Upslope flow and cooler tempertures behind the front will cause snow in Eastern New Mexico and West Texas. Forecast: Today.
