Kenn edy told the Hous ton Chronicle in Thursday's editions that the incident occurred last Ph.D by Michael Moga IDIOTS, AH tOiQTSf VEAH, UECMJTM, we cmYSixiwj] Nerd House Friday in a restroom at the Cara van of Dreams, a downtown Fort Worth nightclub. Kennedy told the Chronicle he was waiting to use a restroom stall when Lewis emerged. Ken nedy said he offered to shake Le wis' hand. "He pointed his finger in my face and said, 'You're a dead (ex pletive),' " Kennedy said. Kennedy said he jerked his hand back from the speaker. He said Lewis moved his face closer and said, "And you don't know how." Lewis then left the restroom, Kennedy said. "I took it real seriously from the look on his face and the tone of his voice," Kennedy said. Lewis had a different descrip tion of the incident. "I ran into Bud Kennedy in the restroom," Lewis said. "I did not shake my finger in his face. He tried to shake my hand, and I did not shake his hand. I said, 'As far as I'm concerned, you're a dead man. You don't exist.' "I would not shake his hand because I think he's very unpro fessional and very unethical," Lewis said. "Is that being mad? Is that being anything? That's just making a statement. Do you consider that a threat?" Lewis said he wanted to be sure Kennedy knew he consid ered the columnist a nobody. "When you refuse to shake somebody's hand, you don't even recognize them," Lewis said. "You just say, 'You're a dead man. You don't exist.' That's just not recognizing somebody." Mary Jo Meisner, managing editor of the Fort Worth Star- Telegram, said the newspaper has lawyers talking to Lewis' lawyers about the incident. Staff lot parking proportion one-to-one Continued from page 1 and staff." All faculty and staff permits are sold on a 12-month basis. So even if the faculty or staff mem bers are not be working at A&M during the summer, they will still have a parking space. A survey by the International Municipal Parking Congress found that A&M has a greater number of faculty, staff, visitor and student parking spaces available than 52 other universi ties across the nation. The survey found that A&M has 25,074 spaces, including 1,500 unfinished spaces for the proposed special events center. Permit costs for A&M students are: $75 per year for on-campus students, $55 per year for com muting students and $20 for the summer term. The University of Houston and the University of North Texas charge $40 per year for student parking permits. UNT also has a $26 permit that allows students to park at its col iseum and take a shuttle bus to campus. UH has 13,600 student spaces available, while UNT has almost 6,000. The University of Texas at Austin charges $13 per year for a student permit. UT sells about 17,000 student permits and has almost 5,000 spaces available. Williams said the PTTS does not oversell on-campus student permits. But he said the ratio of student permits sold to student spaces available is not a useful number. "We won't always satisfy ev eryone," he said. "But we hope the opportunity for parking violations will go down." by Tom A. Madisor m£DIClNE FOR. THE KIDS.

U.S. forces journey home to states Continued from page 1 this deadly game. Within an hour, the whole val ley was covered with smoke from secondary fuel and ammu- nitin explosions below. This bat tlefield haze soon brought about the putrid smell of burning flesh, diesel, rubber and gun powder. We began to press on at 3:45 p.m., once again using machine gun fire to recon the bunkers to our front. We quickly passed by numerous dug in supply trucks and gun positions, all left intact. That's when we found out that this a was a corps level supply dump — because machine gun fire had led to a massively huge 500- to 1,000-foot explosion of fire and smoke, that resembled a nuclear bomb going off. The blast wave popped everyone's eardrums. From out of the explosion came the flash of several anti tank missiles. They were un manned, having been set off by the fire, but they were just as deadly as if an Iraqi had shot them. Unfortunately, one took off to ward my tank. I started to crouch down in my seat to pre pare for the shock of the mis sile's impact when, 150 meters from our left track, the deadly projetile fell harmlessly to the ground. After saying a quick "Thank you" prayer, my heart finally stopped beating out of my chest a few minutes later. As we kept going, an RPG (rocket-propelled grenade) took the life of one of our scouts, as they fired their anti-tank armor around into a Bradley Scot Vehi cle, killing its driver. Another Bradley was hit by this same team, tearing the leg off of the vehicle commander and burning the gunner. The scout platoon leader and the other Bradleys quickly silenced the Iraqis with their 25mm guns venting their frustration on full automatic. Day 5, Feb. 28: We started our movement for ward once again at 6:30 a.m., with all of our forces on line and firing machine gun rounds into the massive array of defensive bunkers to our front. As we came upon abandoned trucks and bulldozers, we fired ® gun rounds to destroy them As we rolled, we struggle keep our line of firepower in- and finally got up to 20 f when were told to stop in p and cease fire at 8 p.m. sfc This was a presidential or^ based upon the United Nafr agreement for a cease fire. We all waited as helicop : scanned the area for signs o( : enemy. The area being secut' we halted all operations for day. It was an abrupt stop, $ tionally, as we were all g# up for a couple weeks oD fighting. The next morning we '* told that the war was over ; the Iraq had agreed to all of U.N. resolutions. We ' ,,f elated, and the bright sun-sl morning told us that this new day in a new month if era of a "New World Order peace. I simply stopped to thank Lord in prayer for the swift tory and the peace we now! The Charlie Hobos can now go home together — knef knee.
