AUSTIN (AP) — Democratic presi
dential candidate Michael Dukakis hasn’t
written off Texas and continues cam
paigning vigorously for the state, his
Texas staff said Monday.
“Mike Dukakis was in the state on
Saturday, Lloyd Bentsen is in the state
today (Monday) and Bentsen will be
back at the end of the week. We are not
pulling out,” Missy Mandell, spokes
man for the Democratic campaign in
Texas, said.
Republican campaigners, meanwhile,
said Vice President George Bush will
continue to emphasize his adopted home
state in the campaign’s final three weeks.
“Texas is an absolute No. 1 priority
for the Bush campaign and there is no
scenario for a national Bush victory
without us winning Texas,” Reggie Ba-
shur, deputy campaign manager for
Bush in the state, said.
Their comments came after newspaper
reports that the Dukakis campaign in
Texas was being downgraded.
A Washington Post story on Sunday
said Dukakis would concentrate his ef
forts on 18 states and the District of Co
lumbia, with 272 electoral votes, two
more than needed to win.

MSC Council discusses A&M issues
By Melinda Eddleman
Reporter
A new computer system is being con
sidered to replace the existing system in
the MSC, the MSC Council decided in a
meeting Monday.
James Reynolds, director of the MSC,
said if the present computer systems go
down, they remain down longer because
two of the four components serving as
part of the main frame are obsolete.
Because parts cannot be purchased for
the components, if the system went
down, it would take 10-12 weeks for the
MSC to regain computer capabilities.
Several other issues were discussed in
the meeting.
Reynolds said President Mobley has
provided divisions of the University the
opportunity to meet with him for three
hours per division to inform him of their
activities. Dr. John Koldus, vice-presi
dent of student services, will use one
hour of the time alloted student services
to share specific information with Mob
ley.
Twelve minutes will then be alloted
for each of the student service divisions
to make a direct presentation to the presi
dent, he said. The council executive offi
cers will meet this week to discuss how
the MSC might make its presentation to
Mobley.
The Council also approved the MBA-
/Law Symposium titled, “Destined for
Success,” which is scheduled for Nov. 9
and 12. The symposium will host school
representatives from most of the South
west Conference schools, as well as
some Ivy League schools including Har
vard, Notre Dame and Cornell on Nov.
9.
The symposium will emphasize grad
uate programs in business and law and
will have more than 18 speakers give
presentations Nov. 12.
Registration will be from Oct. 31 to
Nov. 11, and will have a pre-registration
cost of $5, or $8 at the door. The sympo
sium is targeted at those students inter
ested in earning law or business degrees.
The council approved the Association
of College Unions International regional
conference next October, which will
consist of schools from Arkansas, Loui
siana and Texas.
Reynolds said there are about 60
member schools in the three states that
comprise the ACUI in Region 12. Be
tween 30 and 50 educational sessions
would be produced over a thrcc-day pc
riod. About 250 students and faculty
would attend the conference from mem
ber schools.
The Program Review Committee rec
ommendation to increase the price of All
Night Fair tickets from 10 to 20 cents
also was approved.
Barry Hoggard, executive vice presi
dent for programs, said the All Night
Fair has not broken even the last two
years. He said this year the price of the
tickets will be higher, and there willu
be an admission fee.

BALCH SPRINGS (AP) —Balch
Springs police said Monday they would
seek felony driving-while-intoxicated
and involuntary manslaughter charges
against a Dallas man whose truck
crashed into a station wagon, killing a 3-
year-old girl.
The accident occurred Saturday night
after Balch Springs police attempted to
stop a pickup driven by John Edward
Ward. A high-speed chase ensued.
Felicia Maurry died of injuries she
suffered when the truck hit the back of
the station wagon her father was driving
at an intersection in East Dallas. The po
lice were not involved in the accident.
The girl’s father, Rodney, 25, was
treated at Parkland Memorial Hospital
and released. Her brother, Jeremiah, 4,
was listed in serious condition Monday
in the hospital’s trauma unit. Her
mother, Rhonda, 22, underwent surgery
Sunday and remained in serious condi
tion.
Ward, 33, underwent surgery Sunday
and was listed in critical condition.
Lt. Scott Ankrum of the Balch Springs
Police Department said a blood sample
taken from Ward at the hospital showed
Ward had an alcohol content of .20,
twice the acceptable level under Texas
law.
Ankrum said that because Ward had
two prior DWI charges, the charge auto
matically is a felony. He also said the
Balch Springs office would work with
the Dallas Police Department in seeking
involuntary manslaughter charges.
ACLU files suit
for dying inmates
HOUSTON (AP) — A class-action
lawsuit pending in federal court here
accuses the state prison system of in
stituting a policy that denies inmates
with AIDS and other deadly diseases
access to pre-parole programs.
The suit was filed by the Houston
chapter of the American Civil Liber
ties Union on behalf of an unnamed
inmate infected with HIV, the virus
that causes AIDS.
It claims that the Texas Department
of Corrections discriminates against
inmates with deadly diseases by de
nying them access to pre-parole half
way-house programs run by state of
ficials.
Such access, said ACLU attorney
Bruce Griffiths, may mean an addi
tional six months of freedom at a crit
ical time in an inmate’s life.
“Six months is clearly a long
time,” Griffiths said. “Especially
when he’s got a shorter life expec
tancy.”
T.J. Daughtery, director of the
TDC Pre-Parole program, said the
policy is not designed to discriminate
against AIDS victims but was insti
tuted solely as a matter of controlling
medical costs.
If inmates are on medication or un
der a physician’s supervision, he
said, they arc not put into the pro
gram.
“If we have to provide medical
care. wc arc going to do it where itt
the cheapest,” he said, adding to
place is in prison.
According to documents filed u
the pending case, the inmate con
sented to a blood test to detenraneif
he was HIV positive in April whenli
was in a prison hospital for a sin®
condition.
A month later, he was transfemi
to Huntsville for orientation in th
pre-parole program and then asst®
to a halfway house in Houston. Ba
less than two weeks later, he wastoii
to return to TDC and there was toli
he had tested positive for exposure!;
HIV.
Griffiths claims his client wasuM
by prison medical authorities that lie
was returned to prison because ike
hallway houses are not equipped!
care for someone with a “chronicdis-
case.” But he said his client has not
contracted AIDS and is stiff®;
none of the symptoms.
By removing his client from k
halfway house. Griffiths said, TDC
deprived him of a great deal of free
dom afforded halfway house rtsi
dents.
But Griffiths said the lawsuit!
most important goal is to stop ih
state from allegedly discrimnutu
against certain inmates and jaife
them past the date they should beti
leased.
