BROWNSVILLE (AP) — Three de
cades after Rafael Pardo and 34 other
Cuban revolutionaries were captured off
the coast of Port Isabel with a boat full of
arms and ammunition for Fidel Castro,
the Brownsville shoe salesman is still a
rebel at heart.
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.”

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
