TWA has asked for approval to sell at least seven of its London routes to American. The depart ment said the other proposals re main under consideration. The $110 million from the Chi- cago-London sale gives TWA a cash infusion that will “improve TWA’s strength in the domestic market place, thereby enhancing domestic airline competition,” the department said. The sale is opposed by Sen. John Danforth, R-Mo., who has asked the Justice Department to investigate it for possible violation of federal anti trust laws. The Justice Department has not reported its findings, a Dan forth spokesman said Thursday. Earlier, Danforth wrote a letter to Transportation Secretary Samuel Skinner to complain about the sale of TWA’s Chicago-London route. Grand jury indicts law officer in drug ring case LUBBOCK (AP) — A second Texas law officer has been indicted for knowing about a massive West Texas drug ring but not reporting it to authorities. Acey Van Steel, 40, a Texas De partment of Public Safety trooper stationed at Eastland, resigned Wednesday a few hours before an indictment was returned by a federal grand jury in Lubbock. The drug ring allegedly distributed metham- phetamine as far away as Florida. “Of course DPS never approves of anyone violating the law,” DPS spokesman Mike Cox said Thurs day. “But he is under our system of innocent until proven guilty. (Steel) is no longer an employee so I don’t think it is appropriate to comment any further. It’s up to the courts now.” Assistant U.S. Attorney Dick Baker said the indictment accuses Steel of knowing about the drug ring from Nov. 16 to Dec. 4, 1990, but not reporting it. A federal affidavit also accuses Steel of using DPS computers to identify an undercover police car used in watching the drug ring’s ac tivities. The federal grand jury also in dicted former Eastland County Sheriff Dee Hogan, 59, on a charge of obstructingjustice. Hogan was arrested Jan. 11 on the charge, but released Jan. 23 on a personal recognizance bond that prohibits him from returning to Eastland County. Hogan was re quired to resign as sheriff as a condi tion of his release. Restaurant Report The restaurants listed below were inspected by the Brazos County Health Department between Jan. 21 to 25. Information is from a food service establish ment inspection report. SCORED BETWEEN 100 AND 95: Domino’s Pizza 2015 Texas Ave. Score — 98. Points were deducted for unclean non-food contact surfaces and unclean walls and ceiling. It was a regu larly scheduled inspection. Wendy’s 202 Southwest Parkway. Score — 97. Points were deducted for improper maintenance of non-food surfaces, inadequate construction and re pair of walls and ceilings and unshielded light fix tures. It was a regularly scheduled inspection. SCORED BETWEEN 94 AND 90: An Nam Tea House 103 Boyette St. Score — 93. Points were deducted for improper food protection during storage, inadequate single-service articles, unclean non-food contact surfaces, improper hand drying facilities, litter on the premises and unneces sary articles in the restaurant. It was a regularly scheduled inspection. Pelican’s Wharf 2500 Texas Ave. South. Score — 93. Points were deducted for improper thawing of potentially hazardous food, inadequate storage of food (ice) dispensing utensils, unclean non-food con tact surfaces, improper maintenance of plumbing and inadequate hand drying facilities. It was a regu larly scheduled inspection. Burger Boy 301-C Patricia. Score — 90. Points were deducted for improper food protection during storage, unclean non-food contact surfaces, inade quate storage of food (ice) dispensing utensils, poorly accessible toilet and handwashing facilities and improper hand drying facilities. It was a regu larly scheduled inspection. SCORED BETWEEN 89 AND 85: Los Nortenos 205 South Main. Score — 86. Points were deducted because of improperly labeled food, potentially hazardous food improperly thawed, im proper storage of potentially hazardous foods dur ing storage (major violation), unclean non-food con tact surfaces, unclean wiping clothes and inadequate hand cleansers and hand drying devices. It was a regularly scheduled inspection. Cenare 404 E. University Drive. Score — 86. Points were deducted for inadequate food protection during storage, poor hygienic practices, inadequate hair restraints, inadequate hand cleansers, inade quate repair of walls and ceiling, unnecessary articles on premises, unmaintained non-food contact sur faces, inadequate hand drying devices and unclean walls and ceilings. It was a regularly scheduled in spection. 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, Jefferson said, because restaurants 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 in spection. 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 res taurant if the score is below 60, the personnel have infectious diseases, the restaurant lacks adequate re frigeration, there is a sewage backup in the building or the restaurant has a complete lack of sanitization for the food equipment. Authorities find 4 burned bodies near Mexico ALTO BONITO (AP) — A bullet- riddled van containing four bodies burned beyond recognition was found in rural Starr County about 10 miles from the Mexican border, officials said Thursday. Sheriff Eugenio Falcon said there was a “high probability” the slayings are drug-related. “Those type of kill ings, it’s a real possibility,” Falcon said. Peace Justice Jose Venecia said the four bodies were burned so com pletely they were difficult to iden tify. “They were so burned up that even the bones smash to bits when you pick them up,” Venecia said.
