NO TV VIEWER'S GOING TO WATCH A MOVIE WITHOUT COLOR OR A K **quel number in THE TITLE by Kevin Thomas HOUSTON (AP) — Illegal aliens seeking to file for amnesty now may mail in their applications, say immi gration officials seeking to reduce crowds outside Houston’s Legaliza tion Center. As the May 4 application deadline nears, 600 to 700 people per day have shown up at the office to apply, officials said. Many of the applicants spend the night on the sidewalk outside the center in order not to lose their places in line, officials said. The Houston center has been among the busiest in the nation, re ceiving about 71,000 applications so far, officials said. Under the new rules, applicants may mail in skeleton applications with a money order or cashier’s check for the fee of $185 per adult, or $420 per family. The INS then will mail them a receipt for work au thorization and notice of their inter view date. Immigration and Naturalization Service workers are unable to keep up with the level of applications, and most applicants are given appoint ments to return for their official in terviews after the deadline, said Richard Rios, director of the Legali zation Center. leores TAIN JACK STEADILY :5 THE H.M.S.

Last week, the INS began accept ing skeleton applications without the supporting documents that prove immigrants meet the law’s require ments. Aliens must have lived in the United States illegally since Jan. 1, 1982, to qualify for amnesty. Those who file skeleton applica tions have been granted an additio nal 60 days to return with support ing documentation.

But Highlands rest- ndees ients said the state’s lawsuit ignores more serious Rtions, including adverse health effects they ises of! line dump has caused, iroundw “Let’s see if they would like to have it for awhi le,” said Norval Wilburn, a Highlands resident who made the trip to Austin to give the sludge to Mattox. “We’re sick of having it.” The jar was left with a receptionist in Mattox’s office. The sludge was collected by Rick Abra ham, an organizer for the National -Campaigti/ Against Toxics. A private laboratory delermined the substance includes hazardous chemicals. “We say that is proof the stuff is bubbling up outside the pit,” Abraham said. “But the state at torney general is not suing them for that issue.” Ron Dusek, spokesman for Mattox, said new' wells are being installed to monitor the site and test for hazardous waste. Highlands residents also have filed a lawsuit against the dump owners. “We’re dead serious about this,” Wilburn said, adding that area residents have suffered nausea, headaches, respiratory problems and skin irrita tions. “We want the attorney general to see and smell what people in Highlands have lived with for years.” rmaiif’l lo a 1«| wWl nut'I Manufacturers v HANOVER Smart p* auseol ilatii® fterW nectioH inin'fi :an pj could'J lie tte I rev j trier I nteitfl Easitrrl iedanij ions o. | car# * if:- : | Help your parents get through college. Just thinking about college tuition is enough to make most parents break into a sweat. But can you blame them? When you consider the cost of tuition, books, dorms—not to mention pizza parties— you’re talking big bucks. Which is why you should do some talking. Like telling your parents about the Education Loan Programs at Manufacturers Hanover Trust. At MHT, not only do we participate in all three Federally guaranteed loan programs, but we also work with state and national agencies and can make guaranteed loans in all 50 states. In practically no time at all. In a matter of minutes, MHT Student Loan Processors can program your information into our computerized loan processing system. Within 24 hours, the Bank will get a decision from the Guarantee Agency. It’s that simple. Better still, with MHT your parents will get all the money they need from one source. Example: If your folks need more money than government sources will give them, we can offer them tailor-made payment plans through The Education Loan Program, Educational Lines of Credit or Monthly Budget Program and Pre-Payment Programs that make it easy for your parents to fund themselves. (The Education Loan Program, Monthly Budget and Pre-Payment Programs are offered through the Tuition Plan, a company of Manufacturers Hanover.) Once you get a loan from us, you can be sure it’ll stay with us. Because we’ve never sold education loans to other banks (unless the borrower asked us to). So if you need money for school, call 1-800-MHT-GRAD and get yourself an MHT Education Loan Application. Then when your folks ask you about tuition, at least you’ll have an answer. “No sweat.” The Consumer Banking Group Member FDIC. til fi)qual Opportunity Lender. © 1988 Manufacturers Hanover Trust.
