Senate curbs
funding for
’obscene' art
WASHINGTON (AP) - The
Senate voted ThLirsday to impose
strict anti-obscenity curbs on fed
eral grants for the arts, but refused
to cut the budget of the agency
that distributes the money.
It passed by a 68-28 vote; a
measure telling the National En
dowment for the Arts that no tail
dollars can be used "to promote,
disseminate or produce materials
that depict or describe, in a patent
ly offensive way, sexual or excre
tory activities or organs."
The provision, authored by
Sen. Jesse Helms, R-N.C, was sim
ilar to a prohibition the Senate
adopted last year but dropped ina
compromise with the House in fa
vor of a less-specific ban on "ob
scene art."
It was added to a $12.7 billion
bill to finance the Interior Depart
ment, the arts and humanities en
dowments, the U.S. Forest Service
and some energy programs in the
1992 fiscal year, which begins Oct.
1.
The bill itself was later ap
proved, 93-3, with only Helms,
and Sens. William Roth, R-Del,
and Robert Smith, R-N.H., voting
against it.
Helms complained that many
of the same "perverted artists'
whose depictions of homosexual
themes created an uproar last year
are continuing to get subsidies
from the government.

Man gets 25 years to life
for fire that killed 87
NEW YORK (AP) - The man
who set a fire that killed 87 people
at a social club received the maxi
mum sentence Thursday: 25 years
to life in prison.
Before issuing the sentence,
Chief Judge Burton Roberts of the
trial-level Bronx State Supreme
Court said so many people had
died that "it becomes sort of dis
tant. We can't recognize the hor
rendous tragedy."
Julio Gonzalez,37, J»vas con
victed of 174 counts of murder —
two counts for each death. He got
25 years to life for each count, but
the sentences will run concurrent
ly-
Under state law, when multi
ple crimes arise out of a single act,
sentences cannot be consecutive.
He will be eligible for parole in 25
years.
Gonzalez set the fire at the
Happy Land club in Bronx section
on March 25, 1990, after he had a
fight with an ex-girlfriend who
worked there and was kicked out
by a bouncer.
Attending the sentencing were
nearly 100 relatives and friends of
the victims, many of whom were
immigrants from Honduras. They
applauded loudly at the sentence.
"I hope that he rots in jail,''
said Maria Clavijo, whose teen
age brother Juan Jose Nunez died
in the fire.
"It's not. enough — he,.de
served thq.flqath penalty," said
Aracely Sanchez, friends in the
fire.
Before the sentencing, Roberts
recounted the stories of some of
the victims.
They included a sister and
brother who had been sending
$200 every two weeks to their
mother in Honduras, and a man
who worked two jobs as a dish
washer and factory worker and
had a pregnant wife.
Family seeks court order to allow boy to attend Bastrop school
Judge postpones hearing on ponytail
AUSTIN (AP) - A state dis
trict judge Thursday postponed a
hearing on the Bastrop school dis
trict's move to dismiss a lawsuit
brought by a boy who gained na
tional attention when he refused
to cut his ponytail.
The hearing was re-set for
Monday.
State District Judge John
Placke postponed the hearing,
saying that State District Judge
H.R. Towslee, who has ruled on
the matter in the past, should hear
the case.
The dispute is over Zachariah
Toungate, who was taught in an
isolated room last school year be
cause the youngster refused to cut
his wispy ponytail.
Previously, Towslee had de
nied a temporary court order that
would have placed Zach back in
his classroom.
The 3rd Court of Appeals on
Wednesday heard arguments on
Zach's appeal of that ruling, but
indicated it would not decide until
the case has been resolved in the
state district court.
Zach, now 9-years-old and in
the fourth grade, now attends a
private school in Austin, about 35
miles from Bastrop.
The Toungates have filed a
lawsuit to get a permanent court
order allowing Zach to attend
school with his classmates at the
Bastrop elementary school. The
lawsuit also seeks damage awards
for emotional and mental stress.
The school district has request
ed the lawsuit be dismissed.
"He misses going to school in
Bastrop. But he doesn't want to go
back under their conditions," his
mother, September Toungate,
said.
She said the battle with school
officials, which started nearly a
year ago, has been rough. "There
have been times when I've won
dered, but my son and his rights
mean everything. He has rights
and they're very precious."
"We moved out to Bastrop be
cause we wanted to be in the
country," she said. "It would be
nice for him to be able to go school
where he lives."
Paul Hunn, an attorney for the
school district, however, defended
its position, saying, "What's im
portant here is the right of a school
district to set its own rules tom
the school district.
"The underlying case is hair,
but I think it goes back to who is
going to run the school district.
Are the kids going to run the
school district, or are the adults
going to run the school district?"

A MID-AMERICA ARTS ALLIANCE PROGRAM
Survey says 27 percent
of teens consider suicide
ATLANTA (AP) - A new fed
eral survey of high school stu
dents found that 27 percent
"thought seriously" about killing
themselves in the preceding year,
and one in 12 said they actually
tried.
The U.S. Centers for Disease
Control survey also found that 2
percent said they sustained in
juries serious enough to require
medical attention after suicide at
tempts.
The survey of 11,631 students
was conducted last year. Ninth-
through 12th -grade students were
questioned in every state, Wash
ington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the
Virgin Islands, the CDC said
Thursday.
Sixteen percent said they had
made "a specific plan” and 8 per
cent said they had tried suicide at
least once in the preceding year.
That's far greater than the
number of actual suicides; the an
nual suicide rate for the age group
is just 11 per 100,000, according to
CDC statistics.
Dr. Patrick W. O'Carroll, a
CDC suicide researcher, said that
while it's "scary" that more than
one in four seriously considered
suicide, it's the 8 percent who
tried that is particularly worri
some.
"You need - to increasingly
worry as you go down the spec
trum," said O'Carroll, chief of the
CDC's intentional injuries section
noting that almost everyone has
had idle thoughts of suicide.
"Every one of us is at risk," he
said. "At some point, you have to
not worry about that end of the
spectrum that approaches the way
everybody is. What's more worri
some is the attempted suicides, the
medical consequences."
"That 8 percent could be aery
for help," said Robert R. Butter-
worth, a Los Angeles psychologist
who specializes in youth psychol
ogy. "A lot of times it's a desper
ate attempt to tell someone they! f
in pain ... but sometimes they
mess up, and it can be fatal."
