HA HA HA ! -&C- ^ ” By Clay Welch CheeseSalad by jeff crone Rape victim settles for $3 million THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HOUSTON - A female resi dent of an apartment complex is collecting $3 million from the apartment management company as settlement of a lawsuit she filed after she was raped by another tenant. The 28-year-old woman, iden tified only as Rebecca, sued Dud- dlesten Management Corp., Greenway Gardens Apartments and their security firms because her attack could have been pre vented, the woman's attorneys said. The man convicted of rape in the case, Eddie Frazier, is serving a 25-year prison term. Testimony showed Frazier grabbed the woman Aug. 1, 1989, in a dark hallway and forced her at knifepoint into her apartment where he tied her up with panty hose and a telephone cord and raped her. The woman's attorney, Susan Hiatt, said Wednesday that Fra zier never was subjected to the usual tenant checks because he had a co-signer on his original lease in 1984. She said as early as October 1988, management sus pected Frazier was pawning items to support a drug habit and neighbors complained people were going in and out of his apartment at all hours. In March 1989, management suspected he had broken into an other resident's apartment yet they did not call police or warn residents, she said. Ms. Hiatt contended the neigh bors' complaints would have been enough to evict Frazier. "Instead of taking the $285 rent from this man, they should have thought about the well-being of their residents," she said. A statement released by Dud- dlesten said Frazier had done nothing to breach his lease. Reno Continued from Page 1 Texas and the FBI's investiga tion of the World Trade Center bombing will force her to focus her immediate attention on day- to-day enforcement of the nation's criminal laws. Reno also will review an inter nal Justice Department report that raised questions about whether FBI Director William S. Sessions should remain in office. The report, released as a part ing shot by Attorney General William P. Barr, cites personal trips that Sessions and his wife took aboard FBI aircraft and the director's use of a "sham arrange ment" to avoid paying taxes for use of a government limousine. As overseer of the enforcement of immigration laws, Reno will be an important player in formulat ing administration policy on Hait ian refugees. Conservatives and liberals ex pect Reno to pursue more aggres sive enforcement of civil rights and environmental protection laws. Clinics Continued from Page 1 Green for a blanket and a Bible for his cell. "I would like to keep my Bible as one of my legal documents," Griffin said. Green referred him to jail administrators, who wouldn't comment on the requests. Griffin also asked to represent himself, but the judge didn't rule on that request. Gunn, who lived in Eufaula, Ala., also performed abortions at clinics in Alabama and Georgia, commuting by plane. "He did it because he believed in the cause," said K.B. Kohls, di rector of the Beacon Women's Center in Montgomery, Ala., where Gunn worked. Gunn's Pensacola clinic was closed Thursday. Gunn was the only doctor at Pensacola's other abortion clinic, The Ladies Center. Operation Rescue spokesman Bob Jewett said Griffin was un dergoing counseling before the shooting. Griffin's wife, Patricia, ob tained a restraining order against him in April 1991, according to court records. She said at the time he "physically tried to throw me out of the house." In a later divorce petition, she said Griffin "suffers from great fits of violence." The two eventu ally reconciled and withdrew di vorce papers. Yeltsin Continued from Page 1 has not been written." Yeltsin took the podium in Congress on Thursday morning. "I favor strong presidential power in Russia, not because I am the president, but because I am convinced that without it, Russia shall not survive and rise again," Yeltsin said. Khasbulatov shot back in an emotional speech that called Yeltsin's ideas "petty." He said the only document the Congress would recognize was the Commu nist-era constitution. Foreign Minister Andrei Kozyrev asserted Yeltsin retained strong popular support. "Please be sure that there is a reliable partner, a reliable govern ment, a reliable president with a popular mandate," he said after wards. The lawmakers rejected Yeltsin's compromise offer 382- 329. They then voted 623-252 to give preliminary approval to a resolution that, among other things, would reimpose limits on Yeltsin's authority. Reimposing the limits — sus pended in December — would give lawmakers the right to veto Yeltsin's decrees and return to the Cabinet the right to initiate legis lation. Military Continued from Page 1 Clinton wants to use federal money to help more defense-ori ented companies develop similar "dual-use" programs. Wowed by the high-tech pro jects on display at the plant, Clin ton stared at the inside of an elec tric van. "I love it," he said. The first money for Clinton's package comes from a $1.4 billion appropriation approved by the Congress last year but not spent by the Bush administration. Reit erating a promise he made last month, Clinton said he will take another $300 million from other federal programs to make $1.7 bil lion available for defense conver sion in the fiscal year that ends Sept. 30. Of the money to be spent this year, $845 million will go to "dual use" programs; $637 million will help workers, military personnel and communities hurt by defense cuts, and $185 million will be spent on new technology.
