Bush, have almost $ 100 million coming. The missing money comes from lost and for gotten checking and savings accounts, utility de posits, oil royalties or corporate stocks. “There are a lot of people who have money in these accounts. It is important for them to claim it,” Treasurer Ann Richards said. The names of all those with lost or forgotten funds due them will be published Sunday in newspapers across the state. Most of the unclaimed accounts were dormant for three to five years before they were turned over to the state. All the listed accounts are worth at least $50. The largest totals $102,772, which Richards said is owed to Helen B. Wolfe of Alief. Ryan, who pitches for the Texas Rangers, has $543 in a savings and loan account, Richards said. Bush has $1,592 coming. Gov. Bill Clements is owed $212, Houston oil man and Republican lieutenant governor hopeful Rob Mosbacher Jr. is owed $61.50 and Houston Rockets basketball star Akeem Olajuwon has $354 coming. “Each year we try to locate as many people as we can and return this money to them. Last year, about $26 million was given back to rightful own ers,” Richards said. Anyone owed money can claim it by contacting the Treasury over a toll-free telephone line or in writing. y “There is no set time limit to make a claim on these accounts,” Richards said. “Money turned over to the state Treasury can he claimed at any time in the future by the original owner or his or her heirs.” The unclaimed money list first was published shortly after Richards took office in 1983. Since then, the office has collected more than $273 mil lion Wednesday ASH WEDNESDAY MASS: at 7 a.m., noon, 5:30 and 7 p.m. at St. Mary’s Catholic Church.
