Discovery crew honor
Challenger with eulog
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP)
— Discovery’s astronauts delivered a
poignant salute Sunday to their
fallen Challenger comrades, eulogiz
ing them as fellow sojourners and
friends, and saying “At this moment,
our place in the heavens makes ns
feel closer to them than ever be
fore.”
“It’s good to be back to where they
wanted to go so badly,” astronaut
John M. Lounge said.
As they beamed down spectacular
views of the mottled blue and white
Earth miles below, the Discovery as
tronauts spoke about the Challenger
— America’s last manned space ven
ture — which exploded on liftoff 32
months ago.
Discovery is to return home from
its four-day, one-hour, 65-orbit
llight Monday, landing at Edwards
Air Force Base in California at 12:37
p.m. EDT.

“Those on the Challenger who
had flown before and seen these
sights, they would know the mean
ing of our thoughts,” said astronaut
George D. Nelson. “Those who had
gone to view them for the first time,
they would know why we set forth.”
Gathered in the Discovery’s mid-
deck in f ront of a photograph of the
Challenger crew, the crew took turns
reading portions of the statement
they had written.
“Today, up here where the blue
sky turns to black,” commander
Frederick H. Hauck said, “we can
say at long last to Dick, Mike, Judy,
to Ron and El, and to Christa and
Greg:
‘Dear friends, we have resumed
the journey that we promised to con
tinue for you. Dear friends, your loss
has meant that we could confidently

Bentsen campaign
serves as reminder

AUSTIN (AP) — A Democratic
U.S. senator from Texas decides to
seek national office and re-election
at the same time.
The national campaign stresses
the economy and jobs. In Texas, a
Republican congressman running
for the Senate complains about the
Democratic senator seeking two of
fices at once.
Yes, it’s Lloyd Bentsen.
No, it’s not 1988 but the election
of 1976, when Bentsen was running
for president.
Oil Feb. 17, T975, armed with a
campaign bank account full of con
tributions from fellow Texans, first-
term Sen. Bentsen announced he
was going to he a candidate for the
White House.
On July 12, 1988, Massachusetts
Gov. Michael Dukakis decided on
three-term Sen. Lloyd Bentsen as his
running mate.
The parallels between Bentsen’s
1975 double race and his 1988 dual
campaign are striking.
For starters. Republican Rep.
Alan Steelman, the 1976 GOP Sen
ate candidate, sounded much like
Republican Rep. Beau Boulter does
this year.
“He’s trying to dance to both ‘The
Yellow Rose of Texas’ and ‘Hail to
the ChieF at the same time,” Steel
man said then.
“We can t restore optimism, put peo
ple back on payrolls, stop inflation,
provide for health care, education,
housing and the other concerns of
Americans without a reasonable
growth in our economy. This must
be our No. 1 priority.”
And on another familiar-sound
ing issue, the Texan said that as
president he would cut the budget.
“We have to get a handle on gov
ernment spending,” he said.
There is one parallel, however,
that Democrats don’t want drawn
“Any Texan can tell you: a man
who tries to ride two horses usually
ends up flat on his backside,”
Boulter said. “Bentsen’s two-horse
candidacy for two offices on the
same ballot raises some serious legal,
financial and ethical issues.’’Bent
sen’s 1976 response — “I don’t think
the people of Texas are going to see
anything sinister in that” — is vir
tually the same today as he seeks re-
election to a fourth Senate term and
election as vice president under the
state’s “Lyndon Law” allowing such
dual candidacies.
Bentsen’s main campaign theme
in 1976 would sound equally at
home shouted on the stump today:
between the two campaigns.
In 1976, Bentsen lost.
He dropped out 51 weeks after
starting his presidential bid, settling
for re-election to the Senate.
Unlike most candidates who quit a
White House race early, money
wasn’t the problem.
Bentsen spent almost $2 million
during the race and had cash on
hand when he gave it up.
Saying he didn’t “believe in post
mortems,” Bentsen made few public
comments about the race.
He said there had been too much
polarization in the early caucuses.
“I tried to represent the moder
ates,” Bentsen said. “The caucuses
attracted the activists.
“I suppose 1 had some problem
establishing identification. I really
didn’t expect 10 people to be in the
race.”
John C. White — his friend, 1976
Texas campaign chairman and for
mer Democratic national chairman
— says Bentsen was and remains
presidential timber.
A big problem, White said, was a
strategic decision to skip the early
1976 primaries and caucuses in
Iowa, New Hampshire and else
where.
“He made a fundamental deci
sion, based on the advice of his cam
paign people, that he would bypass
the early primary and caucus states.
His theory was that somebody had to
beat (Alabama Gov.) George Wallace
and that he could beat him in Flor
ida,” White said.
