In a letter dated Monday, the Amalgamated Transit Union asked the National Labor Relations Board to seek a federal court injunction or dering the drivers back to work. NLRB spokesman David Parker said Wednesday that the agency had not received the letter and would have no comment on the request. NLRB General Counsel Jerry Hunter already has obtained an in junction against the union, barring it from further violent acts in the dis pute. The request is the latest move by the union, whose drivers went on strike March 2 in a dispute over wages and job security. Dallas-based Greyhound Lines Inc.has continued running at reduced levels since the strike began.

State agriculture inspectors from as far away as Maine and Hawaii turned out for the opening of a four-day symposium designed to coordinate states’ efforts in combating the so-called “killer” bees. Many said they expect their states eventually to be infested, either by the bees migrating natu rally, or being transported as stowaways on ships or truck trailers. “They’re all concerned that they need to be speaking with a coordinated voice and a coordi nated approach to dealing with the spread of the Africanized bee in the United States,” said Anita Collins, head researcher with the U.S. Depart ment of Agriculture’s Honey Bee Research Lab at Weslaco in far southern Texas, about 10 miles from the Mexican border. Most attending the symposium cosponsored by the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture and Texas A&M University are involved in regulating honey bees in their states. Africanized bees are the hybrid offspring of a swarm of African bees that escaped from a re search project in Brazil in 1957. They have ex panded their range through South America, Central America and Mexico since then. Several swarms of Africanized bees have been trapped in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas about 150 miles south of the border city of Brownsville since last November. Because they can expand their territory by about 300 miles per year, scientists previously had expected them to cross into southern Texas by now. But none have been found closer to the border since November, possibly because a harsh winter and prolonged drought reduced the food supply needed for migration, scientists said. Robert Mitchell, state apiarist for the Delaware Department of Agriculture, said he went to Wes laco to learn more about the Texas Africanized honey bee management plan. “It also gives some credibility to our department whenever an me dent does occur,” Mitchell said. Kenneth Teramoto, chief of biological coniril of plant pests with the state of Hawaii's Depar| ment of Agriculture, said he expects Africanizfl bees to reach his state as stowaways on ships. I “We’ll Find out what Texas and some of other states are going to do about the AfricanufJ honey bee and we’ll set up a state plauf lm\ moto said. Twenty-two swarms of Africanized bees ha j been found and destroyed since 1979 at Uil ports aboard ships from Latin America. Hi| most recent swarm was found at the Port cl Houston earlier this month in the hold ofashij[ from Mexico. The hard-to-manage bees eventually are eil pected to cost U.S. beekeepers as muchas$3'[ million per year, according to the USDA. Ex pected drops in bee-pollinated crop producdoi could cost U.S. farmers as much as S40 millio: per year. Skull stays in state as evidence OUR PRICES ARE RIGHT ON TARGET!

Kenneth Berryman’s body was found in a wooded area of Smith County, Texas, on March 15 with a bullet wound to the head. His body, minus the head, w’as shipped to Plymouth County, Mass., where the family buried him. They later found out about his head was being kept in Texas as evidence ;lii was set for William Eugene Brumbe- low, 47, who is accused of killing Berryman, 52. Smith County District Attorney Jack Skeen Jr. said Berryman’s skull will be returned to Massachusetts af ter Brumbelow’s trial. Regina Esposito, the victim’s daughter, and George Berryman, the victim’s brother, who live in Plymouth County, Mass., told the Tyler Morning Telegraph they were outraged that the skull was being kept in Texas. “They sent my father home, we d A preliminary trial date of Oct. 18 buried him, and a week later we found out” that the body had been decapitated, Esposito said. “We’re very upset,” George Ber ryman said. “It’s ghastly, ghostly, anti-everything that I can think of that they should do such a thing. Pe riod. Even if they had notified us. It is disgusting.” Smith County Sheriffs Lt. Greg Wilson said the skull is being kept in the department’s evidence room. His officers retrieved it from the Southwest Institute of Forensic Sci ences in Dallas. Restroom citation causes stink HPD stands behind policeman MEMORIES in MOTION Fee Option 23 HOUSTON (AP) — An officer who cited a woman for using a men’s restroom at a concert was responding to a complaint by two men, not patrolling the arena for potential bathroom violators, a police spokesman said Wednesday. In the continuing saga over the wrong restroom cita tion, the Houston Police Department defended the offi cer now blamed from ruining the woman’s night. Houston legal secretary Denise Wells said she was ticketed and thrown out of country-western singer George Strait’s concert July 7 at the Summit for enter ing the men’s restroom instead of waiting in a long line for the women’s restroom. Wells said she made the unconventional move be cause she didn’t think she could wait it out in the wom en’s line. Police officials said that what she did was ille gal. Her restroom dilemma has received national atten tion, but police only recently commented about the case. Police spokesman Richard Retz said Wednesday that Wells and three other women were cited that night for using the men’s restroom only after Officer D.B. Ram sey received complaints from men who were unhappy with women using their facilities. “There were at least two complaints, one from a man with an 8-year-old son,” Retz said. “The officer received complaints and he had to act. He was just doing what he had to do. He was just acting on a complaint.” Officers do not patrol the restrooms at the Summit, Retz noted. Although Ramsey issued four citations, Retz said the officer did not make Wells or the other women leave the concert. Woman lives with corpse Police find dead body in closed bedroom DALLAS (AP) — Dallas pofe on Wednesday were investigating the bizarre case of a woman who apparently lived in a house with her husband's dead body for up to seven months.

Officers said that CannelaSa las, 65, told them hei husband had died in DecemUn. but had been resurrected. “Right now it’s an unexplained death,” McCloud said. “We don'! know how he died, and we’re not sure how long he’d been dead.” Neighbor Maria Almaraz said her children noticed a smell in November or December, and that other neighbors also complained They said Salas would not lei any one inside the house. She slept in a different bed room from her husband, and had been borrowing water from a neighbor since her service wascui off m January.

If you speak two languages, you’re bil ingual. So what are you if you speak one? An American. Many parents — including some who find themselves losing interna tional business deals to bilingual Eu ropeans and Asians — are trying to expose their children to a second language at a younger age. Houston’s Ruth Ransom has en rolled both her children in the Awty International School. Awty is a pri vate school that became affiliated with the French School of Houston in 1979 and offers a French immer sion program. Before her children were born, Ransom traveled and lived extensi vely overseas, including a stint in the entourage of George Bush when he was U.S. envoy to China in 1974-75. “I want my children to be able to communicate with people in other countries, to understand their cul ture and viewpoints,” Ransom said. “The easiest way to do that is to learn their language.” Although she speaks some French, Ransom said she is not as fluent as her 8-year-old son, who will enter enter the third grade next year. Her second child is 3 and in Awty preschool. “We recently went to France, and my son did a lot of translating for me,” Ransom said. “My son told me, ‘Mom, don’t speak in French, speak in English, because in French the ac cent is everything.’ My kids seem to love it. They will turn to one kid and speak English, turn to another and speak French.” What’s Up Thursday ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS: will have a general meeting at noon.
