Judges debate juror participate
By WILL HEALY
Reporter of THE BATTALION
The question of whether jurors
should ask questions during trials
dominated the MSC Political Fo
rum's Thursday night debate be
tween incumbent Judge John De
laney and opponent John
Hawtrey in the race for the 272nd
District Court.
Hawtrey, a Republican and a
self-proclaimed judicial conserva
tive, said he opposed allowing ju
rors to ask questions.
Hawtrey advised the audience
to watch a sports event without
supporting either opponent. Be
cause of human nature, the spec
tator will end up taking a side, he
said.
"It is absolutely impossible, if
you go into that court room and
Candidates discuss opposing opinions
of allowing juries to question witnesses
know that you're going to have
the opportunity to ask questions,
that right away you're not going
to sta^t picking sides," Hawtrey
said.
Delaney, a Democrat, said the
questions jurors ask are screened.
"You don't let the jurors ask
questions like, 'What did you
think you were doing when you
ran the red light?'" Delaney said.
Juror questions are allowed in
27 states, including Texas, De
laney said.
"It's humbling to lawyers that
jurors can ask better questions
than they can," he said.
During the debate, Delaney
questioned Hawtrey's qualifica
tions for the position citing a sur
vey of the Brazos County Bar As
sociation. The survey asked local
lawyers who was better qualified
for the job.
Quoting the survey, Delaney
said that out of 72 respondents, 70
said Delaney was qualified or
well- qualified compared to 10 for
Hawtrey.
On the topic of court appeals,
Hawtrey accused Delaney of hear
ing 128 appeals from February
1985 to August 1991. He also said
Delaney was spending more time
in his courts than in the two other
"It's humbling to
lawyers that jurorsg
ask better questions
than they can."

district courts in the an
Hawtrey promised to resign!
had 128 appeals in thesai
amount of time.
Delaney responded byck
lenging his opponent to com[«
his number of appeals tool
courts. He answered thedia^
of overspending by citing toil
that there are five personnel!
the other district courts comp,’!
to four on his own. DelaK
called Hawtrey's figuresonl
spending in his court "carel®
mis-stated facts."
Student Senate members now include liaisons
By GINA HOWARD
Reporter of THE BATTALION
The Student Senate approved legislation
Wednesday concerning student liaisons and
handicap facilities on the Texas A&M Univer
sity campus.
Senate Bill 92-12, dealing with student li
aisons between the Student Senate, Faculty
Senate and Bryan-College Station City Coun
cils, was approved with the addition of an
amendment after a short debate on the floor.
The legislation adds an amendment to Sen
ate by-laws to make student liaisons members
of the Senate. Appointment of these liaisons
will be based on submission of applications
and will be open to any qualified students.
Brian Walker, speaker of the Senate, intro
duced the second piece of legislation passed.
Senate Resolution 92-8. The resolution, titled
American Disabilities Act Compliance, encour
ages the ADA Steering Committee to "go well
beyond technical compliance and to reach
compliance with the spirit and intent of the
American Disabilities Act."
Walker said simply meeting the require
ments is not enough.
"The purpose of this commit
tee would be to provide a
clearer channel of communica
tions concerning policy
changes, not to mandate what
the committee decides."
-Patti/ Warhol, Senator
"A lot of buildings are in technical compli
ance, but do not stand with the spirit of the
act," Walker said.
Several other bills were approved to go back
to committee for the next step in the legislative
process.
The Bus Operations Advisory Board El
which deals with setting up a non-Senatec®
mittee to serve as a sounding board for bus
eration patrons and employees, wasretas
to committee. Senator Patty Warhol, wliois
troduced the bill, said it will notbeata
committee nor will a Senator specificallysm
on the board.
"The purpose of this committee wouldkli
provide a clearer channel of communicate
concerning policy changes, nottomandaS
what the committee decides," Warholsaid.
Other business addressed by the Senate'’
eluded a committee to solicit money fromfi
mer Senators in order to generatefundiaj
looking into the implementation of a B^ani
C+ into the grading system, the possibiiily
students being able to substituteacadeiri
classes for required kinesiology and Senas
Awareness Week, which will be conducted I
week of Nov. 2.
