Heart research at the Texas A&M College of Medi
cine was enhanced Friday with a large grant from a
Temple publisher.
Sue Mayborn, publisher and editor of the Temple
Daily Telegram, and president of the Killeen Daily
Herald and television station KCEN-TV in Temple and
Waco, made a donation to the College of Medicine.
The donation enabled the creation of a new endowed
chair, a prestigious title for faculty members.
The gift of $500,000 was made in memory of her late
husband, Frank W. Mayborn, during a press confer
ence at the clinical campus in Temple. The donation
will be matched by the Endowed Faculty Scholars Pro
gram, bringing the sum to $ 1 million.
Mayborn suffered from heart disease and died from
it in 1987.
Billy Rankin, assistant dean of the College of Medi
cine, said that by making the contribution Mayborn rec
ognized the medical school as a leader in the field of
Victim’s father disagrees
with Brandley’s release
heart research.
“The honor and prestige of this newly endowedcll?
along with the income generated from the endow®
will help the College of Medicine recruit top-no
leadership to conduct multidisciplinary cardiovasol
research,” Rankin said.
Mayborn’s gift allows the College of Medicine toi
evate study in the area of heart disease and improvei
overall education medical students receive, Rankin;
At present the College of Medicine has not
nounced who will fill the position. Rankin saidthemt
ical school will try to obtain a highly qualified profesyi
to hold the post.
The College of Medicine operates in a partners^
with the Scott & White Memorial Hospital, the Sc*
Sherwood and Brindley Foundation, the OlinE. Tt;
gue Veterans’ Center and the Texas A&M Univerr
System.
Medical students spend two years at the facilities;
College Station learning basic medical science. Tlitj
later move to the clinical campus in Temple tocomple
the last two years of t heir stuclies.

BELLVILLE (AP) — Despite a
court ruling reversing Clarence
Brandley’s death sentence, the fa
ther of the teen-age girl he was con
victed of killing remains convinced
the former janitor is guilty.
“I just wish 1 could have had a
chance to plead for my daughter’s
life,” C.L. “Buck” Fergeson said
Tuesday.
His 16-year-old daughter, Cheryl
Dee Fergeson, was raped and stran
gled Aug. 23, 1980, while attending
a volleyball tournament at Conroe
High School.
Brandley, a janitor at the school,
was charged with the crime a week
later.
He was tried twice for capital
murder. The first trial ended in a
mistrial and the second with a con
viction and a death sentence.
Tuesday, Brandley walked out of
Texas’ death row after the Texas
Court of Criminal Appeals last
month set aside his conviction. The
court said he did not receive a fair
trial.
“I’m still convinced he’s guilty,
and I hope (Montgomery County
District Attorney Peter) Speers is
going to do everything he can to rec
tify the situation,” Fergeson told the
Houston Chronicle from his home
between Bellville and Brenham.
Fergeson, 59, said the thought of
Brandley being free on bond is
frightening.
1’m not worried about him while
the spotlight’s on him, (but) as soon
as the spotlight fades ... ” he said, his
voice trailing off.
“After all that’s passed — with the
news media and all the protests and
the evidence and everything — I
think probably a new trial would be
pointless,” Fergeson said. “Right
now, it’s up in the air. You always
hope the next step will be different.
“This is our appeal,” he said of
Speers’ decision to seek a U.S. Su
preme Court review of the case.
“We don’t have any other appeals.
I left it up to the courts and the jus
tice system,” Fergeson said. “As far
as I know, they’re still working at it.
Some people are losing faith in it,
but I think it may turn out all right.”
Fergeson, a retired steel company
official and now a sculptor, said he
feels bitter about the last 9'/2 years.

Callers turn in own pushers
during anti-drug broadcast
DALLAS (AP) — More than 1,000 anonymous call
ers turned in neighbors, friends, schoolmates and their
own drug pushers during an unprecedented anti-drug
broadcast here, crime officials said.
“It went far beyond my greatest expectations,” said
Greater Dallas Crime Commission Director Greg
MacAleese of Tuesday night’s “Texas Crackdown!” an
anti-drug program broadcast by four television and
three radio stations.
“We took over a thousand tips, and a very quick scan
of them would indicate 20 to 25 percent of them really
look good,” MacAleese said. “If that’s the case, that’s
probably 200 to 300 drug dealers who’d better enjoy
their last few weeks,” he said.
The tips came from schoolchildren, neighbors of sus
pected drug pushers and even from drug users them
selves.
“Revenge is a major factor,” MacAleese said. “Push
ers will rip people off left and right, phony dope, this
type of stuff, so there were a lot of guys out there who
were getting even.”
Local TV executives say overnight ratings showed al
most three-quarters of the people watching television in
Dallas-Fort Worth Tuesday night were watching the lo
cally produced special that pre-empted network pro
gramming.
An hour-long “town meeting” followed local new
casts at 10:30 p.m.
The program was produced by and aired on WFAA
TV, an ABC affiliate, CBS affiliate KDFW and NBCaf
filiate KXAS. It also aired on independent KDTX-T':
and was translated onto three Spanish-language radiol
stations, KESS-AM. KSSA-AM and KSSA-FM.
More than 1,000 calls came in to the so-called Tipstei
hotline during the broadcast, and to a help line staffec!
by drug counselors. Drug users and those seekinghel[
for drug users were referred to support groups an!
treatment centers.
MacAleese said producers shunned sensationalismti
show the effects of drug use on individuals. Organize!:
said the show’s emphasis was on education and commi
nication, especially among young people.
“We were not naive enough to believe that you a
take people who are hooked on crack cocaine, put thee
in front of a TV and cure them,” said Dave Lane, pres;
dent and general manager of WFAA-TV.
“I don’t know if we cured a soul, but if we made the:
think, and showed them where to get help, I think*:
did what we set out to do,” said Wendell Harris, vie
president and news director at KDFW-TV.
