Marshal uses
seized Mercedes
as company car
HOUSTON (AP) — A $55,000
Mercedes-Benz automobile seized
from a Jamaican drug dealer last
year is being used by the U.S.
marshal as a company car.
Basil “Stu” Baker, a presidential
appointee, apparently has issued
himself the luxury automobile and is
using it to drive to and from work,
sources within the marshal’s service
told the Houston Chronicle.
The 1988 gold-trimmed Mer
cedes, which is fully loaded and
equipped with a cellular telephone,
is owned by the federal Drug En
forcement Administration and is on
loan to the marshal’s service.
Jim Griffith, an official with the
seized asset division of the U.S.
Marshal’s Service, said he was not
aware that Baker was driving such a
car and did not know if the marshal
had received the proper approvals.
Baker’s use of the Mercedes may
be a violation of federal policy.
Griffith said such luxury auto
mobiles are not intended for use by
administrators.

Judge trades gavel for anchor chair
DALLAS (AP) — A judge who is
about to swap the bench for the
bright lights of television news says
there is not much difference be
tween the two careers.
“A judge works to get the facts
concerning a situation and puts
them together in the form of a ver
dict and delivers it to an audience —
the jury,” said Dallas District Judge
Catherine Crier, who will turn in her
gavel next month to become a Cable
News Network anchor.
“I would say the parallels are con
siderable.”
The 34-year-old judge, the
youngest woman ever elected to the
Texas bench, is known in court
house circles for her
demeanor.
‘Lonesome Dove’ snub
at Emmys raises furor
DALLAS (AP) — Stampeded.
Plucked. Left in the Dust. The angry
headlines in Texas newspapers
Monday said it all.
The CBS miniseries, “Lonesome
Dove,” a saga of western frontier
life, got barely a nod from the tele
vision industry in Sunday’s Emmy
Awards and Texans weren’t happy
about it.
Helen Human, the Dallas actress
who portrayed the bossy and buxom
“Peach” in the miniseries, said, “It’s
something that you can’t help feel
ing bitter or upset about.”
The epic depicts a cattle drive
from dusty Lonesome Dove, Texas,
to Montana. It’s central characters
were two aging Texas Rangers por
trayed by Robert Duvall and Tommy
Lee Jones.
“I just wish the people who were
more vitally involved with it got the
recognition they needed to get,” Hu
man said. “It kind of gives me the
impression that somebody woke up
with a sore tooth when they voted —
that’s how ridiculous it is.”
Sore heads might have been in
volved, too. Human said.
“Mr. Duval is a very talented per
son, but he’s also a very strong per-
Many industry watchers thought
Duvall had a virtual lock on a best ac
tor Emmy for his portrayal of the
talkative Texas Ranger Gus. The
award went instead to James Woods,
who played the co-founder of Alco
holics Anonymous in the CBS movie
“My Name is Bill W.”

A glowering television critic at the
Fort Worth Star^Telegram called the
decision “an unbelievable lapse in
judgment.”
“The (Television Academy of Arts
and Sciences) embarrassed itself by
refusing to honor “Lonesome Dove”
as the Season’s finest miniseries,” the
newspaper’s Art Chapman said.
“It threw crumbs to the program

viewing public,” he said. The pro
gram won awards for casting, cos
tumes, editing, makeup and sound
and recognized director Simon
Wincer.
Other programs walked away with
the big awards, to the astonishment
of many. “Lonesome Dove” had
topped the nominations with 18.
“Considering the number of tapes
we receive, when I open the box I
expect to see someone I don’t want
to hire,” said Paul Amos, CNN exec
utive vice president of program

have any news experience didn’t

About 250 graduating seniors are

as business attire, grooming, punc
