AUSTIN (AP) — The admission by state
prison board member Jerry Hodge that he took
two friends on a prison training manhunt
sparked calls Tuesday for Gov. Bill Clements to
demand Hodge’s resignation.
The governor said some of Hodge’s actions —
particularly allowing two people outside the
criminal justice system to take part — were “inap
propriate.” But he said he wouldn’t seek Hodge’s
resignation.
Clements did say, however, that the incident
would be considered when he decides who he will
appoint as the next chairman of the Texas Board
of Criminal Justice. Chairman Charles Terrell
steps down Sept. 1. Hodge has been vice chair
man.
Sources in Austin said Clements had intended
to announce Hodge’s appointment Tuesday, but
backed off in the wake of the revelations.
Clements denied he had chosen Terrell’s suc
cessor.
“Certainly I will have this in consideration
when I make my ultimate decision,” Clements
said. “But as far as disqualifying him, I do not
think that it does. I think he made a mistake. I
think he’s apologized for his mistake. I’m sure he
will not do it again.”
Hodge, 47, a former Amarillo mayor, ac
knowledged taking part in dog-training exercises
in which an inmate was tracked down. He also ac
knowledged taking two others along with him
and later presenting his companions jackets pro
claiming the escapade “The Ultimate Hunt.
“Certainly, the use of the jackets and the
phrase on the jacket was wrong and inappro
priate,” Clements said. “I also feel like having
o tside people on those exercises is inappro
priate. I will make my views known to the board,
and I’m sure in the future there will not be any
outside people allowed for those exercises.’
One of those taking part was Glenn McMen-
namy, a member of the state Department of Hu
man Services board, Hodge said.
Calls for Hodge’s resignation came Tuesday
from the American Civil Liberties Union, Demo
cratic gubernatorial candidate Ann Richards and
a state lawmaker.
“Gov. Clements should call on Mr. Hodge to
resign from the board,” said Glenn Smith, an
aide to Richards, adding that Richards doesn’t
object to training dogs to track down inmates.
“I think the issue here is that a member of the
board invited his friends along and made up
— ” £ '- ; th
said. “Prisons are places for punishment
habilitation. It’s hard to believe that
chased down bv dogs and horses for sport wont
come back on the streets rehabilitated.”
Hodge earlier this month participated i n
news conference for Republican gubernatorii 1
candidate Clayton Williams Jr. Richards’snnL
Vednesda}
man said Williams “should discharge him ^
responsibility and repudiate Mr. HodJ,
unconscionable actions.” 8
Williams’ press secretary, Gordon Henslei
said the Republican candidate believes “there j
no question that the jackets are inapprop r i a | f
and allowing guests to be present is inapp rt !
priate.”
“Mr. Williams clearly believes this
needs to be looked into and should be
gated,” Hensley said.
Texas ACLU legal director James Harrinp s
called for the resignations of both Hodge a
McMennamy.

matin
invesii.
“The importance of the positions which!
Hodge and Mr. McMenpamy hold are too l

portant for the lives of Texans to be entrustedio
oeople who have so little respect and sensitivitj
lor the dignity of individuals,” Harrington wrott

Residents: Fort Hood troops
ready for rumored deployment
KILLEEN (AP) — Folks in this
Army town know from experience
that something is up at Fort Hood.
Soldiers are updating wills and
stockpiling desert gear. Rumors are
flying.
But the Pentagon and the post re
fused to say Tuesday whether any
troops have been or will be deployed
to the Middle East.
“I can’t speculate on that,” said
Fort Hood spokesman Maj. Jesse
Seigal. “We have no comment.”
“We simply haven’t announced
anything out of Fort Hood,” a Penta
gon spokeswoman said.
The post is the largest armored
post in the U.S. and home of the 1st
Calvary and 2nd Armored divisions.
The Associated Press has quoted an
Army source in Washington as say
ing troops from Fort Hood would be
deployed.
The people of Killeen are sure
that troops and equipment from
their neighboring post will be in
volved somehow in the the Persian
Gulf.
“There’s something going on,”
said Margaret Galindo, an employee
at The German Restaurant in Kill
een. “You don’t see any Cl’s down
town. At lunch we usually have five
or six, but I haven’t seen a GI in 2 or
3 weeks.”
Almost 70,000 people live in Kill
een, located at the main entrance of
Fort Hood. About 45,000 of them
are military, their families or mili
tary retirees.
Bell County Justice of the Peace
Robert Stubblefield said his office
has been inundated with calls from
soldiers who want to update their
wills or designate power of attorney.
“I’m sure they are going over the
re,” Stubblefield said. “Everybody
kind of gets jittery and wants to get
their stuff in order.” ,
Others point to the run by soldiers
on desert supplies at Army surplus
stores.
The Fatigues and Things store
was sold out of desert bandanas and
camouflage, said assistant manager
Maryann Carrillo. Canteens and de
sert goggles also were going fast.
Much of that equipment is issued
by the Army, but Carrillo said sol
diers are telling her the post is either
out of the items, or they’re afraid
they won’t get them in time.
“I know they are preparing for
something,” she said.
08602Several soldiers in Killeen
declined to be interviewed. Military
officials prohibited interviews or pic
ture-taking on the post.
Walter Clark, an employee at First
National Bank and a customer at
The German Restaurant, said he
heard the 401st Military Police Com
pany, which went to Panama during
the U.S. invasion last December, had
been ordered to go to Saudi Arabia.
But his lunch companion, Bobby
Cranford, said, “You can hear any
kind of rumor.”
Residents agreed with President
Bush’s decision to send American
troops to Saudi Arabia, but said they
hoped Iraq would back down with
out a fight.
“I think with the troop buildup
there’s not going to be a lot of fight
ing,” said Chuck Ritz, 46, an Army
veteran who served two tours in
Vietnam. “Our president will not
hesitate to go all the way if he has to.
But he’s not going to push it.”
At Fort Bliss near El Paso, mean
while, workers were manning a 24-
hour hotline to help families cope
with the deployment of the 11th Air
Defense Artillery to Saudi Arabia.
“There’s a lot of fear out there,”
said Donna Santos, director of Army
Community Services at the fort near
El Paso. “A lot of concern.”
Questions frequently asked bi
drivers are, “When traveling
alone, what can I do to be safer?
and “If my car breaks down or
the road, what should I do?”
The Crime Prevention Unit
with Texas A&M’s University Po
lice Department has the following
tips for drivers:
• Try to avoid breakdowns bi
keeping your car in good running
condition.
Check battery cables, bells,
tires, oil and radiator at least once
a month. Make sure you have ad
equate gasoline and money to get
to and from your destination.
• If your car breaks down,
raise the hood, use flares or tiea
white cloth to the door handle.
Stay in the locked car and when
someone stops, ask them to
phone for help.
Should someone try to get into
the car with you, honk your horn
repeatedly and turn on your
emergency flashers. If possible,
pull back onto the roadway so
passing motorists will know you
are in trouble.
• Try not to travel alone at
night and plan your route in ad
vance. Be prepared.
Make and carry an emergency
kit with flares, flat fix, send aid
signs, as well as a pencil and pa
per to write a phone number on
