His years as a teen-ager fighting in Santiago for the overthrow of former Cu ban dictator Fulgencio Batista and the three years’ probation he served for smuggling guns to facilitate the coup have left a bitter taste in Pardo’s mouth. It is the bitter taste of the Castro regime — a Communist chokehold the revolu tionaries violently oppose but failed to foresee 30 years ago. Pardo has come a long way since his arrest March 27, 1958 by the U.S. Coast Guard aboard the Panamanian ship “Orion,” which was laden with thou sands of dollars worth of contraband to fuel Castro’s revolution. The dapper, bubbly 49-year-old is ob viously more comfortable on the golf course or in his downtown Brownsville shoe store than struggling in the Cuban Sierra Maestra with an automatic rifle and combat boots. But he said he wouldn’t hesitate to re turn if the need arose. “If there was a good, we 11-organized movement against Castro, I’d be the first to fight,” he said. “But it would have to be with open eyes, not with closed eyes like‘1 did be fore,” Pardo said. “The conditions over there are so bad.” Pardo was bom and raised in this mountain city of Santiago, where anti- Batista sentiment originated and blos somed throughout the early 1950s. At the age of 14, Pardo was leading troops deep into the mountains to prepare for Castro’s invasion before he was jailed in 1956 by government police until his politically powerful father could ne gotiate his release. Several years later, the elder Pardo died of stomach cancer while imprisoned at the hands of Castro. Pardo’s sister, too, died before the revolution ended, as she left the country on a boat sunk by the Cuban Coast Guard. She and eight other passenp eaten by sharks, Pardo said. In 1957, at the age of 16, Pant New York where he met a groti; low revolutionaries that he wot; accompany in a week-long kf at the Cameron County Jail alto; rests on the Orion. “We traveled by train and) Brownsville,’’ he said. “When: to Brownsville, we contacted: man with a moving truck and»i| all our boxes of ammunition ii : and we traveled away to Boca Pardo met and married his current wife 23 years Brownsville, where the couple their three children and runafai store across the street from tie courthouse where he was assessed: tion 30 years ago. “So many people I’ve met ten me come back to Brownsville Pardo said with a grin. “I've right. 1 have no complaints.” "7* Officer shoot: ex-convict ii self-defense Si BROOKSHIRE (AP)-1 Brookshire police officer who fa( shot an ex-convict who ened him with a knife has beet J signed to administrative dutiesj ding an investigation, the police:: said.

ARMY BE ALL YOU CAN BE. WACO, (AP) — Ed Traywick owns a convenience store. There’s nothing easy about his job. He works seven days a week, 12 hours a day — helped out by his wife, Marie, and two sons, Patrick and Michael — at Traywick’s Qwik Trip, situated on a sliver of concrete in a north Waco neigh borhood infested with crime. “They talk about a police officer’s job being stressful,” he said. “At least they’ve got two days a week off. When you get a store like this, you have to marry it. You have to be with it all the time.” Traywick accepts his store for better or worse — but not people who steal from it. He said he recently was visited by a 15-year-old boy who pumped $15 worth of gasoline into a car, then jumped in the back seat as the driver fled. Later, the boy wanted to make restitu tion. There was just one catch. To get the money owed him, Traywick had to agree to drop criminal charges. Traywick re fused. The boy was charged with theft under $20. The city of Waco stands to gain $151 in fines. Traywick will get nothing. He can live with the arrangement. “There’s still a lot of people who be lieve stealing is wrong,” he said. “I hope I’m not the only one. ’ ’ Some might think Traywick is hard hearted. He doesn’t. He’ll agree his heart isn’t what it used to be. To understand why he feels like he does about crime and why he works so hard, you have to go back to Sept. 1, 1980. Even then, Traywick rarely took time off. His father, Edward Anderson Tray wick, 65, a retired General Tire em ployee, relieved him on Friday and Sat urday mornings. The Labor Day weekend of 1980, the older Traywick couldn’t work his regular shift. His Texas National Guard unit had a get-together in Dallas. When he re turned Sept. 1, he called his son and of fered to work the evening shift, joking that he needed the money. Tired from working nonstop, a grate ful younger Traywick accepted his fa ther’s offer. At about 11 p.m., a man entered the store, pointed a gun at the older Tray wick, rifled the cash drawer of $100, forced him to lie on the floor and shot him once in the chest. The robber then shot the older Traywick’s wife, Lillian, in the right forearm and daughter, Eve lyn, in the shoulder. Traywick died in the store. Thomas Graves, 19, was convicted of killing Traywick and two other people on the same night, and given three stacked life sentences. “Since my dad was killed, I kinda feel I need to be here all the time.’Triji said. “If someone is hurt, rdrattel me than someone else in myfamilf For a time after his father's t; Traywick got out of the conveiil store business. He didn’t stayaw'f though. “It’s the only thing I know,”te : “Plus my kids are getting readyfof lege. 1 wanted to give themthatofjd nity. 1 decided to go back into bis) again. 1 want to work five yearsa£! out and start enjoying life. Rigte I’m just trying to make it.” From his seat behind the corn* ywick can see 18th Street as itu# the direction of McLennan Cohie- College. He can tick off the crime: fered by the stores in view. A slite lost $500 worth of shoes; a car c» ; ter had its state inspection sticker:? a bar has been broken into four (i® cently; a fire extinguisher compai? the battery ripped out of its truck. Waco police have at least 18 if' detailing thefts and other criminal: ity committed at Traywick’s slot: year. A sense of helplessness pervafc area, he said. y CHARLES D0( Lu SALE SA Board wants to let teachers retire earlier AUSTIN (AP) — The State Bit Education recommended state la* 5 ers enact legislation that would 5 public school teachers and employ* retire earlier.
