Group seeks to reverse prayer policy THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CORPUS CHRISTI - A civil liberties group is asking school of ficials to change a policy that has prevented students from holding prayer vigils around flagpoles at three campuses. "And if it's not, we will be forced to file a lawsuit," said Kel ly Shackelford, an attorney with The Rutherford Institute, which specializes in the defense of reli gious freedom. Corpus Christi Independent School District officials prohibited students at three schools from gathering at campus flagpoles on Sept. 16 to participate in the third annual "See You at the Pole" na tionwide prayer vigil. The event was sponsored by the Rutherford Institute. School officials say they were enforcing a district policy that prohibits non-curricular student groups from meeting on school campuses. The policy stems from a 1984 U.S. Supreme Court deci sion allowing schools to operate as closed forums. The students who gathered for the vigils were asked to disperse or move off campus to comply with the policy, not because they were praying. Assistant Superin tendent George Wetzel said Tues day. But Shackelford, who is based in Dallas, called the district's ac tions "a clear violation of a num ber of constitutional rights of the students." "On behalf of the students, we're requesting that whatever policy or position of CCISD be changed," said Shackelford. Volunteers take part in cleaning up Texas beaches THE ASSOCIATED PRESS AUSTIN — Thousands of vol unteers cleaned up 172 tons of trash from Texas beaches last weekend, including medical sy ringes, salt bags, rope and plastic bottles, the General Land Office reported Tuesday. "Without the volunteers, their dedication and the anti-pollution message they have helped broad cast since this program started in 1986, Texas beaches would be un bearable," Land Commissioner Garry Mauro said. "As it is, we're making head way toward relieving our beaches of their reputation for being the garbage dump of the world," Mauro said. More than 13,000 volunteers participated in Saturday's three- hour coastal cleanup, according to Mauro's office. The event was sponsored by the Center for Ma rine Conservation and the Land Office's Adopt-A-Beach Program. The cleanup covered 163.5 miles of accessible beach along the 367-mile Texas Gulf Coast. The biggest turnout was on Galveston Island, where 3,906 volunteers removed 21.9 tons of trash, the Land Office reported. Aggie Ring Orders V 0 Clayton W.
