ment inspection report.

Points were deducted for improper storage of clean
equipment and walls/ceilings in need of repair. It was an
opening investigation.
SCORED BETWEEN 94 AND 90:
Sundance Club at the College Station Hilton on Uni
versity Drive. Score - 94. Points were deducted for im
proper storage of food-dispensing utensils, unclean
non-food contact surfaces, hand cleansers and drying
devices in restrooms in poor condition. The investiga
tion was due to a complaint.
Gallery Bar at the College Station Hilton on Univer
sity Drive. Score -91. Points were deducted for im
proper storage of food-dispensing utensils, unclean
non-food contact surfaces, unclean food contact sur
faces and improper storage of toxic items (major viola
tion). The investigation was due to a complaint.
SCORED BETWEEN 74 AND 70:
Sandpiper at the College Station Hilton on Univer
sity Dr. Score -74. Points were deducted for improper
temperature storage of potentially hazardous food (ma
jor violation), improper protection of stored food, poor
hygienic practices of personnel, unclean wiping cloths,
improper storage of clean equipment, unclean non
food contact surfaces, unrepaired floors and improper
storage of food dispensing utensils. The investigation
was due to a complaint.
Garfield’s Resturant and Pub at 1503 S. Texas Ave.
Score - 72. Points were deducted for improper protec
tion of stored food, food prepared at improper temper
atures, unclean wiping cloths, unclean non-food contact
surfaces, improper storage of toxic items (major viola
tion), inaccessible toilets and handwashing facilities
(critical item requiring immediate attention), improper
storage of food-dispensing utensils and personnel's fail
ure to wear hair restraints. It was a regularly scheduled
investigation.
David Jefferson, a registered sanitarian at the de
partment, said restaurants with scores of 95 or above
generally have excellent operations and facilities. He
said restaurants with scores in the 70s or low 80s usually
have serious violations in the health report.
Scores can be misleading. Jef ferson said, because res
taurants can get the same score by having several minor
violations or a few major violations. He said the minor
violations can be corrected during the inspection. Point
deductions or violations in the report range from one
point (minor violations) to five points (major violations).
Jefferson said the department might close a restau
rant if the score is below 60, the personnel have infec
tious diseases, the restaurant lacks adequate refrigera
tion, there is a sewage backup in the building or the
restaurant has a complete lack of sanitization for the
food equipment.
The department inspects each restaurant every six
months. Jefferson said a follow-up inspection is some
times required if a restaurant has a four- or five-point
violation that cannot be corrected during the inspec
tion, or if there are numerous small violations.
Inspectors at the department are registered sanitari
ans.
Seniors upset when Williams
withdraws from AARP forum
AUSTIN (AP) — Senior citizens
blasted GOP gubernatorial candi
date Clayton Williams Thursday for
pulling out of a forum with his Dem
ocratic rival sponsored by the Amer
ican Association of Retired Pei sons.
AARP-VOTE, the group’s voter
education program, canceled the
Sept. 25 candidate forum aftei Wil
liams withdrew, according to a lettei
distributed at a news conference.
The Republican and Democrat Ann
Richards were to appear, seperately
The news conference criticizing
Williams was not sponsored by
AARP, said those there. But they
said they belonged to the group, and
some belonged to the Gray Panthers.
“Where is Clayton Williams?’'
asked W’alter Richter, chairman erf
the Travis County Democratic Party.
“He needs to come off the television
screen and meet Ann Richards and
the voters of Texas.”
Liz Carpenter, former press sec
retary to Lady Bird Johnson, said,
“Anyone who would welch out on
talking about older issues is letting
down the older people of this state
She said that those at the news
conference, if their ages were added
together, “represent more than
1,000 years of wisdom. '
But Williams spokeswoman Mona
Palmer dismissed them as “Ann
Richards lieutenants.”
She said Williams had to bow out
of the event because of a scheduling
conflict. She declined to say what the
conflict was, but said Williams has
offered to appear before the group
on three optional dates.

Bailey Hutchison, Saying she can't
handle her family and business debt.
Hutchison said Van Hightower
was wrong and accused her of mak

and cheap shots.”
Hutchison also announced her
endorsement by Democrats and in
dependents.

Diary investigator withholds decision
until more evidence becomes available
HOUSTON (AP) — A private investigator on Thurs
day claimed to have seen a diary describing a CTA plot
to kill President Kennedy, but a former agency em
ployee who helped the investigator said the diary ap
peared to be “a clumsy fabrication.”
Private investigator Joe West told reporters in Hous
ton he had obtained and copied the dairy, found by Ge
neva White Galle, the widow of Roscoe White, a Dallas
police officer at the time of Kennedy’s assassination.
White’s son, Ricky Don White, claimed on Aug. 7 his
father had shot Kennedy, acting on orders from the
Central Intelligence Agency. Roscoe White died in an
industrial accident his son said was a deliberate attempt
to silence his father.
A myriad of conspiracy theories, none of which have
been proven, have emerged since The Warren Com
mission concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone
in killing Kennedy.
Asked what makes the White family’s claims any
more credible than other assassination theories, West
said, “It would take me a month to answer that, and I’m
just not going to.”
White’s original claims brought immediate denial
from both the CIA and FBI. However, state Attorney'
General Jim Mattox has said he’ll investigate White’s
story.
West said Thursday he does not now have the origi
nal diary, and refused to divulge who does. He said he
believes it is being sent to a certified document analyst
and it may turn out to be a hoax.

Police beef up
area patrols
after shooting
AUSTIN (AP) — City officials
urged calm Thursday as they beefed
up police patrols in the area of a sus
pected gang shooting that left three
people wounded at a bus stop.
Mayor Lee Cooke said he received
numerous telephone calls from citi
zens saying they plan to arm them
selves in the wake of the Wednesday
shooting.
“That will only exacerbate the
problem,” he said at a news confer
ence Thursday at the Austin police
station. “It will only make it more
difficult for the police to do their job
properly.”
Those wounded included a 61-
year-old man who attempted to pre
vent the shooting, a 16-year-old girl
and 16-year-old boy. All were in sta
ble condition, police said.
Three suspects were questioned
by police but later released. No ar
rests have been made in the shoot
ing, which happened at about 4:30
p.m. at one of the busiest intersec
tions in the city.
Officials said they did not have
enough evidence to call the shooting
gang-related. But police said wit
nesses claim they saw two groups of
youths arguing at the intersection
and yelling out the names of rival
street gangs moments before the in
cident.
Cooke said extra police patrols,
including officers on horseback,
would be dispatched to the area. He
“In the other
shootings, I didn’t get
calls to my office. The
thing that alarmed me
is the comments by
citizens saying they
were going to take the
law into their own
hands.”
— Lee Cooke,
Austin mayor
dismissed questions about why secu
rity has not been beefed up in other
areas where gang violence has been
reported.
“In the other shootings, 1 didn’t
get calls to my office,” he said. “The
thing that alarmed me is the com
ments by citizens saying they were
going to take the law into their own
hands.”
Police said there are about 800
gang members in Austin, a relatively
small number compared to other
major cities in Texas.
In an unrelated gang shooting
Wednesday, an 18-year-old gang
member was fatally wounded in the
head. Police said they don’t know
whether the shooting was deliberate
or accidental.
In earlier interviews with the Aus
tin American-Statesman, the youth
said he needed the companionship
of his fellow gang members, but that
he also wanted to get away from the
violence of gang life.
