GET YOUR TICKET DISMISSED?! 693-1322. 909 S.W. Parkway. 26t 12/09 AUSTIN (AP) — The role law yers play in settling workers’ com pensation claims should be curtailed and benefits paid to injured workers should be improved, according to recommendations by the staff of a special legislative committee. Rep. Richard Smith, co-chairman of the Joint Select Committee on Workers’ Compensation Insurance, said he expects the panel to vote on the staff report’s 55 proposed rec ommendations at a meeting Friday. Smith, R-Bryan, said he and co- chairman Sen. Bob Glasgow, D-Ste- phenville, agreed to seek a vote on the staff recommendations as a package rather than a vote on each separate proposal. Large increases in workers’ com pensation insurance rates during the past several years and complaints that Texas workers aren’t compen sated as well as those in other states led to creation of the study commit tee. Its report will go to the Legis lature in January and is expected to be one of the key issues to be han dled by lawmakers in the 1989 ses sion. The committee’s staff and consul tants, in a 27-page draft report sub mitted for committee action, put to gether a number of reforms they said were designed to restore worker and employer confidence in the sys tem, improve benefits and reduce the need for lawyers. Among the proposals: • Establish the state Industrial Accident Board as the principal arbi ter of disputes and claims from in jured workers. Most such disputes are resolved by the board’s staff, but an unsatisfied worker can still go to district court with a trial in which the board’s findings are irrelevant. The report says any appeals to courts should instead be based on the re cord developed at the accident board. • Changing the basis for calculat ing benefits to more closely reflect how much money an injured worker has lost in wages. • Boost the maximum weekly benefit to the full state average weekly wage, which now is about $416. The current system pays just over half the average wage of $238. The following incidents were reported to the University Police Department from Nov. 28 through Monday: BURGLARY: • A man reported that some one stole a solid silver letter opener and a pocket alarm from his desk in Blocker Building. • Two computer terminals and a typewriter were stolen from Reed McDonald Building. • A man reported that some one stole a stereo and some cas settes from his pickup, which was parked near Married Student Housing. MISDEMEANOR THEFT: • Four bicycles were reported stolen from various locations around campus. • Someone stole $440 from the Alpha Phi Omega file cabinet in the MSC between Nov. 1 1 and Nov. 28. • A student reported that someone stole $15 and a credit card from her desk in the Sterling C. Evans Library. • A student reported that someone stole the front license plate from her car. • A student reported that someone stole her purse from the Read Building racquetball courts. Six days later, another student re ported that someone stole his duffle bag from the same area. • An officer caught a student stealing a tire cover from a jeep. • A student reported that someone forged some checks that were inside a backpack that had been stolen in September. The forgeries were investigated by College Station Police and the suspected forger admitted to stealing the backpack. • A student reported that someone stole his black eelskin wallet, which he had left on the Simpson Drill Field bleachers. TERRORISTIC THREAT: • Officers responded to two bomb threats called into a Corps of Cadets Dormitory Nov. 29. In both instances, searches revealed no evidence of a bomb. HARASSMENT: • A student reported that she received an annoying phone call. • A student reported that she received an annoying and obscene phone call from a male caller. • A student reported thatsii: received several annoying phoni calls while in the Corps Guaii Room.

Bryan man pushes for legislation to make English official language BRYAN (AP) — Lou Zaeske, the only child of bilingual parents, says he will not rest until his native state of Texas recognizes English as its of ficial language. His crusade, by his reckoning, be gan in 1976, the year of the U.S. Bi centennial, when he went to his Democrat precinct to vote and saw Spanish and English on the ballot for the first time. n years later, after being rebuffed by Democratic and Republican lead ers, Zaeske stood in front of the old and the Carnegie Library building here and announced the formation of the American Ethnic Coalition as a non partisan, non-profit organization. “To be able to properly partake in the American dream, one must be proficient in English,” the founder- chairman of the American Ethnic Coalition said. The coalition is separate from U.S. English in California and Wash ington and English First of Spring- field, Va., but all promote English as the official language of the United States, Zaeske said. “The official English issue is but one tentacle of the octopus that is causing us (the coalition) problems,” Zaeske, 46, said in a recent inter view. “The other tentacles are the move for same-day, onsite voter reg istration; the move to count all for eigners in the state in the 1990 cen sus for reapportioning; immigration problem.” Zaeske estimates that the coalition has 40,000 members nationwide, with 30,000 in Texas. Since dues are not required, the membership is cal culated by adding the names of those who signed petitions. For success stories, Zaeske points to November votes in Florida, Colo rado and Arizona to make English their official state language. Of the 16 states that have taken such action, 11 have done so since 1986, and the issue has never been defeated on a statewide ballot, he said. “Ours is a movement whose impe tus is increasing. ” Zaeske’s parents, Louis Sr., who speaks fluent German, and Agnes, fluent in Czech, raised their son in Wilson County in what Zaeske re calls was a “melting pot” of small town U.S. A. At the cotton gin where he worked in Floresville, Zaeske heard Tex-Mex, Slavic and European ac cents, but what impressed him, he says, was that everybody was endeav oring to speak English. At Texas A&M, Zaeske was one of nine regulars in the Young Republi can organization, which once swelled to 13 to hear GOP congressional candidate George Bush address the group. Among his college memories are two foreigners — Pakistanis, lie: lieves — who taught labs in bn English that he said was almost possible to understand. Zaeske graduated from 1966 with a degree in media engineering, hut Zaeske Eij neering Co. is closed now be® his drive for official English much time and energy. With the Republican Party tually non-existent in Bryan ya ago, Zaeske became a Democrat ter the 1976 Democratic county vent ion refused to consider bis cial English resolution, Zaf switched to the Republican Party After three unsuccessful attei to have the GOP add an Englisl olution to their party platfei (/) Zaeske decided he would goitab and founded the American Eli H Coalition. Some of his critics dismiss Z? (/) as a bigot and racist, a zealot of: worst sort. “1 would say that I am highly3 tivated and I am highly concert —concerned that our country is lowing itself to divide and fad® lize along ethnic or language b which ultimately is going to undoing of our country,’’ ZaS said.
