The National Weather Service is sued a tornado warning Tuesday af ternoon for Collingsworth County, about 60 miles southwest of Am arillo, but no damage or injury was reported. The National Severe Storms Fore cast Center issued tornado watches for more than two dozen counties in north Central and Northwest Texas until 5 p.m. CDT and for about 50 counties in western and Central Texas until 8 p.m. By mid-afternoon, showers and thunderstorms ranged over south ern King County and to the north east of the South Plains, near the Red River in the extreme southeast Panhandle. In addition, thunderstorms with heavy to very heavy rainshowers were developing in south Central Texas near College Station. Late Tuesday morning, storms continued to drench a large part of the Panhandle, where a flash-flood warning was in effect for most coun ties from Amarillo eastward. A 67-year-old man was killed in a weather-related, three-car accident in Amarillo Tuesday morning, a po lice spokesman said. Henry Butler of Amarillo lost control of his car on a slick city street and was killed in the mishap, al though police did not know the cause of death Tuesday afternoon, police spokesman Helen Cruz said. Interstate 40 in western Amarillo was closed for a few hours because of submerged underpasses where a dozen vehicles were stalled, police said. Amarillo authorities received reports of eight accidents and 35 stalled vehicles, Cruz said. Study: Hurricanes deadlier than predictec CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — A new study shows the death toll from a major hurricane could be far worse than previously predicted, the director of the Na tional Hurricane Center said Tuesday to mark the opening of the 1988 Atlantic storm season. Forty-three million people live in about 175 coastal counties from Maine to Texas, and evacuating crowded urban areas and barrier islands — like Miami Beach — is virtually impossible, Bob Sheets said. Recently completed hurricane coastal flood models for the Atlantic and Gulf coasts show that many more people than earlier thought must be evacuated under certain conditions, Sheets said. Sheets said there are not enough shelters to handle the added load. And there are serious concerns how glass-windowed high-rises would fare if lashed by hur ricane-force winds during the evacuations. “Another problem is the ‘glass city’ problem,” said Sheets. “We’ve not had a strong category three or cat egory four hurricane of record strike a . . . glass city.” Hurricanes are rated on a one-to-five scale with five as the most severe, with winds over 150 mph. During a weaker hurricane that struck Houston, “glass was flying everywhere,” Sheets said. The Hurricane Center director refused to make pre dictions about the 1988 season, saying no one has con vinced forecasters they can reliably predict the number and severity of the storms. But as if to underline the need for caution, the first tropical depression of the year formed 150 miles south west of Havana, Cuba, with 30 mph winds. The system was moving north northwest at 5 mph but was not ex pected to strengthen. It will be harder to track any hurricanes if, as feared, one of the two satellites watching such storms goes out this year, forecasters said. A spokesman for the Texas De partment of Public Safety in Am arillo said said some city streets also were reported to be under water. But Marcel Fischbacher, a Potter County agricultural extension agent in Amarillo, said the rain was a wel come sight for sorghum producers. “We were pretty dry.” Fisch bacher said. “We had a couple of small showers through the weekend, but this one really helped out. It did a lot of good ... as far as getting the ground ready to plant the grain sorghum.” "It’s quite possible this year that we could lose Of West at anytime,” hurricane specialist Bob Cases,® By Hi the Geo-Stationary Earth-Orbiting Environment§H Assisi tellite, which records atmospheric conditionsoicfflfTARKVI Pacific Ocean and part of the Western Hemisphei the bottom Just as in 1984, when COES-East expired and' started Mom rarily deprived meteorologists of Atlantic atmos: pitcher Paul photographs, the expected death of the westerr whether they lite would be inconvenient, but not catastrophii hall inning o said. ^■'he Titan The new eastern satellite would have to be mod, and a loss remote control from its equatorial orbit over Bra ha|re to play ; stationary orbit south of the Texas Gulf Coast.

But a legal brief filed for the defendants denounced the lawsuit involving a Pecos County oilfield as a politi cal effort instigated by Land Commissioner Garry Mauro. “ Phis is not a case where an honest and shrewd busi nessman made a good deal and is merely collecting his profits, of a case of an oil and gas operator risking ev erything to make the big oil and gas discovery,” Rangel said. “Behold! There charges onto the stage a new, young land commissioner with unabashed high political ambi tions . . . ‘Conspiracy! Conspiracy!’ cries the whippersnapper, glorifying himself with self adulation as a knight-errant called from on high to save the chil dren,” said the brief filed by defense lawyer Cecil Munn of Fort Worth. “This case is about a vacancy hunter and his lawyers drilling a well which was a sure thing, and using a posi tion of trust and confidence to obtain benefits for them selves at the expense of the school children of this state,” he said. But Assistant Attorney General Jose Manuel Rangel told State District Judge Peter Lowry that the lawsuit was needed. The state is asking that Exxon Corp. and Marathon Oil Co., which buy oil and gas from the 3.9 acre tract under dispute in the rich Yates Field, suspend payment to certain lease owners or pay money to a receiver until a trial is concluded. Attorneys said the injunction hearing is expected to last through the week.

(AP) — Instead of state lines and thousands of miles, a short hallway is now all that separates 24-year-old David Luntz from his younger sister and brothers. When their mother died two months ago in an auto accident near Fort Worth, Luntz wasn’t sure he could keep the family together, es pecially considering he lived several states away and had a new family of his own. But perseverance paid off with a little help from friends. Luntz, the oldest sibling, has taken guard ianship of Alice Luntz’s six youngest children and moved them to Ken tucky into a pair of mobile homes near the Army’s Fort Campbell. “I built a hallway to connect the back door of one home to the front door of the other,” supply sergeant Luntz told the Dallas Times Herald. “Then we went shopping for bunk beds. Everyone’s doing OK.” Such an outcome seemed unlikely when Mrs. Luntz, 44, a courthouse clerk and fast-food restaurant em ployee, was killed March 11 in a pickup accident just outside the Tar rant County town of Azle. She left behind eight children: David; Keith, 20; Tiffany, 14; Stormy, 12; Sunny, 10; Rocky, 9; Tony, 8; and Mikey, 6. David feared that the younger children would be split up and sent to foster homes, so he rushed back to Texas from Fort Campbell. After handling the funeral arrangements, David filed for guardianship of the six youngest siblings. A Tarrant County court granted the petition March 28, and that night, they loaded up everything and moved to Kentucky. Before Mrs. Luntz’s death, David and his wife, Joan, and their two sons were living in a two-bedroom mobile home on a half-acre a few miles from the base. After getting guardianship, David bought a three-bedroom mobile home, parked it behind the first home and connected them. David inherited his mother's pact car, and the family needse inch of it and his truck to trans; the children, Joan Said. “Whai really need is a bus.” Luntz said he has found kin in others who have been gladio them.

M-I-C “See you real soon.” K-E-Y “Why? Because we like you.” M-O-U-S-E... Jennifer, 9, is one of the new Mouseketeers, who will play the old Mouseketeers in a Walt Disney Stu dios movie scheduled for release this fall. “I’m a Mouseketeer,” Jennifer says, trying out the word. For almost two months, Jennifer has thought of becoming a Mouseke teer. Through three auditions, Jen nifer belted out songs, tapped her toes, performed jazz routines and read scripts. Finally, Disney officials called her mother, Joy, a couple of weeks ago. Joy called Jennifer at school with the news. “When I was walking down there (to the school office) I kept thinking ‘What have I done now?’ ’’Jennifer says. “I heard Mom’s voice and when she mentioned Julie’s name (the tal ent agent) and I felt really excited . . . I’m a Mouseketeer.” “She was very down to earth about it,” Mrs. McGill says. “The first thing she asked was if I was really sure so she could tell her teacher. “Jennifer loves to perform, and this is an opportunity she’s always wanted. We’re extremely grateful.” Jennifer says she was never really scared during her tryouts. “I kept thinking, ‘This could be my whole future,’ ” she says. “I was nervous but I wouldn’t really call it scared.” Jennifer’s father, John, is a train ing supervisor with Conair. She also has a 6-year-old brother, Justin. Mrs. McGill says her daughter is a “pageant child.” “She loves to sing, and the only place she had to sing was in a pag eant,” Mrs. McGill says. Jennifer’s latest pageant, the Royal American Miss in Dallas, set her Disney career in motion. One of the judges was a children’s talent agent. After the show, she ap proached the McGills and talked with them about representing Jen nifer. Within two weeks, the agent ar ranged a private audition for Jen nifer with Disney representatives who had selected her photo from 500 submitted from the Dallas area. She then auditioned — singing and dancing. When she made the third cut, Disney representatives filmed Jennifer singing, dancing and act ing. The McGills don’t know what part Jennifer will play in the upcoming movie. Disney probably will fllml movie this summer in Califoj Mrs. McGill says the movie d spun off into a series.
