Art curator says
Chinese exhibit
‘pushes limits’

Wi Luan’s ‘Yellow Wall’ is part of a collection assembled by ARCO
on exhibit through May 31. The exhibit opened Monday with a sym
posium on western influence in contemporary China.
By Mark Gee
Staff Writer
A collection of contemporary
Chinese paintings being displayed in
Rudder Exhibit Hall demonstrates
unpresidented artistic freedom in
the People’s Republic of China, an
adjunct curator of Chinese art said
Monday.
Dr. Richard E. Strassberg, adjunct
curator of Chinese art at the Pacific
Asia Museum in Pasadena Ca., said
the Chinese artists’ experimentation
with Western styles pushes the limits
of the communist country’s officially
accepted art.
“Beyond the Open Door: Con
temporary Paintings from the Peo
ple’s Republic of China,” is a collec
tion of 40 paintings presented by
University Art Exhibits and spon
sored by ARCO. The exhibit in
cludes oils, pastels, collages and
mixed media paintings all completed
within the past six years.
“All of tnese works are timely re
minders of the yearning for pro
gress and the hope for a better life
which motivates China’s people, re-
f ardless of their circumstances,”
trassberg said Monday at a sympo
sium, which was part of the exhibit
opening. “And it is a pathmark in
the growth of its artists who have
now begun to articulate these yearn
ings with an expanding vocabulary
of styles.”
He said many of the Chinese art
ists featured in the exhibit have two
tracks of artistic work. One track is
for the production of governmen-
tally accepted work and the other
track is for creative expression.
One painter, Li You’en, is a cos
tume designer at the Shanghai
Drama Institute. His painting, “Hot
and Humid,” is one of the most con
troversial of the exhibit because it is
sensual, Strassberg said. The photo
realistic painting was inspired by a
French magazine advertisement.
He said, in viewing the works, it is
important to realize the external lim
itations imposed on the Chinese art
ists. The artists rarely are exposed to
western art and most of the paint
ings were done with minimal sup
plies.
At the conclusion of the exhibit at
Texas A&M on May 31, the paint
ings will be sent to private, university
and museum collections.
Reservations for guided tours of
the exhibit, for five or more people,
can be made by calling University
Art Exhibits at 845-8501.
Judges create
policy to limit
legal comment
EDINBURG (AP) — Judges in
Hidalgo County say they are devel
oping a policy to restrict what law
yers may say to news reporters about
pending cases.
Some attorneys claimed the
judges want to establish a gag order
that would tread on their First
Amendment right to freedom of
speech.
“What the judges are having
problems with is having to retry
cases and having to declare mistrials,
because the lawyers are trying their
cases in the media,” said State Dis
trict Judge Hector Villarreal, one of
10 members of the Hidalgo Countt
Board of Judges, which is working
on the new policy.
Villarreal said a judicial order un
der consideration would restrict pre
trial comments from lawyers based
on the Canons of Ethics of the Code
of Professional Responsibility cover
ing all attorneys practicing law in the
state of Texas.
Lawyers violating the ethical rules
currently are subject to punishmem
by the state Bar Association Griev
ance Committee, in a process thai I
can take months.
But those violating the judges
proposed court order by discussing I
anything beyond basic factual infor
mation would be subject to a con
tempt of court citation, Villarreal
said.
"I consider it a gag order to stop
lawyers from talking to the media,
District Attorney Rene Guerra said.
"All I know is that sooner or later I
a lawyer’s going to have to go to jail
to test this order,” Guerra said.
Janet Warren, Texas deputy di
rector for Freedom Of Information, |
said the order would be an unneces
sary regulation and a "severe viola
tion of the First Amendment.
"This sort of thing can’t be toler
ated.” Warren said, who was speak
ing on behalf of Texas chapters of I
the Society of Professional Journal
ists-Sigma Delta Chi.
“We’re hoping these people
come to their senses and back out of
this proposal,” she said.
Villarreal said the order expected
within the next two or three weeksin
the lower Rio Grande Valley county
would not restrict the First Amend
ment, and would protect other con
stitutional provisions, including the
right to a fair trial.
Civil attorney Brinkley Oxford of I
Edinburg said lawyers in the countv I
will file a lawsuit if they find the or
der is too restrictive.
“The First Amendment does no!
stop south of Falfurrias,” Oxford
said.
He said some attorneys would ar
gue that the ethical canons do not
prohibit lawyers from expressing
opinions, but added he thinks the
judges eventually will “comeupwit L
a workable solution.”
Suspect in embezzlement
in Iowa captured in Texas
FRIENDSWOOD (AP) —A man
accused of embezzling $1.1 million
from an Iowa credit union nearly
five years ago was arrested Monday
by authorities who said they had
grown suspicious of his spending
cash on a home and fancy cars.
Steven Hadley, 40, was taken into
custody without incident by FBI
agents and police in this city near
Houston, FBI officials said.
Friendswood Police Lt. Gary Ed
wards recognized Hadley after see
ing his picture in a recent FBI flier
issued in connection with the tele
vision series “Unsolved Mysteries,”
FBI officials said.
Hadley was reported missing by
his wife in July 1983, the same time
the $1.1 million disappeared from
the John Deere Employees Credit
Union in Waterloo, Iowa, where
Hadley had worked.
He left a note saying he could no
longer cope with the pressures of job
and family.
“He’s been here since 1984 when
he bought a house, but has no visible
means of support,” Edwards said.
Hadley paid cash for the house
and drove around town in a Ferrari
and an Alpha Romeo, which he also
bought for cash, Edwards said.
“We did a reverse investigation,”
Edwards said. “We researched how
he came into a lot of money. When
he bought his house and fancy cars
in cash, people were suspicious.
“There was no doubt in my mind
it was him when I saw the flier. I was
shocked. I probably have 600 pages
of reports on this guy from the last
three years and he looks the same.”
Nicholas V. O’Hara, FBI special
agent in charge of the district office
at Omaha, said, “Hadley admitted
his identity following his arrest,”
Authorities believe that after his
disappearance, Hadley took a July
21 flight to Chicago, out they were
not able to track his movements. He
left behind a note to his family say
ing he took the money and fled be
cause he “could no longer cope with
home and work pressures.”
In part of the letter included in
federal court documents, Hadley
wrote to his wife, “This is a very dif
ficult letter to write but I couldn't lei
you find out from someone else first,
If I call you to read this letter, il
means that I have successfully
the state with around $1
from the credit union.”
Hadley had worked at the credit
union for 10 years and was de
scribed as a reliable and respected
employee.
His wife, Kathryn, has sinc$ di
vorced Hadley and retained custody
of their three children, aged 11
and 1 when their father disap
peared.
Hadley, who is charged in Iowa
with credit union fraud and embez
zlement, is being held in Texas pen
ding an appearance before a US,
magistrate.
Hopes of catching Hadley rose in
February when producers of the
“Unsolved Mysteries” program ar
rived in Waterloo to prepare fora
segment on the missing cash and
credit union employee.
Largest sapphire called ‘Southern Star’
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) — A North Carolina
gem thought to be the largest blue star sapphire in exis
tence will be called the Southern Star, its owners said
Monday.
“The stone was found down South, and I guess we
figured that was as appropriate as anything,” Craig Pe-
den of Chattanooga said. He is one of two men who
found the stone last year.
“We wanted to give it a name to show where it came
from,” added his partner, Steve Meyer of Blue Ridge,
Ga.
The big question facing the two men is whether the
corundum gem, estimated at about 1,025 carats, is actu
ally a blue star sapphire, meaning it displays a six-ray
star in bright light.
Such stones are rare, and none is the size of theirs.
But they think they’ve got one.
“It has a nice six-legged star,” Peden said. “It’s the
largest blue star sapphire in the world. It turned out to
be very, very nice.”
i>uc iLc midi ivoid won’t come for a couple of weeks,
when they will submit the crystal for certification by the
Gemological Institute of America in Santa Monica,
Calif.
If that group says it’s a blue star sapphire, Peden,
who runs a dental ceramics business, and Meyer, anX-
ray technician, have a chance of becoming millionaires.
“It’s on the market immediately,” Peden said. “It’sa
beautiful stone and everything. But as far as being sen
timental or anything, no. It’s for sale. I can use the
money a lot more than I can use (the gem) in a bank
vault.”
The gem was cut and polished earlier this month by
John Robinson, a Texas gem cutter, and will be auc
tioned by Howard Marcon, president of Amar Inc., a
Dallas gem dealer.
Both believe it is a blue star sapphire, but neither has
seen the stone in a direct beam light.
“If it’s as strong as the owners tell me it is in sunlight,
then I think it could be an important stone,” Robinson
said last week from Plano.
