AUSTIN — An attorney for
Houston man accused of killing
state trooper said Wednesday
cop-killing rap song may havi
provoked his client and prompt
ed the shooting.
Opening statements and wit
nesses were presented on the firs:
day of the capital murder trial
19-year-old Ronald Ray Howard
Howard is accused of killiaj
Department of Public Safet
Trooper Bill Davidson in April
1992, after Davidson pulled ove
Howard's vehicle for missing-
headlight.
Defense attorney Allen Tame:
said that on the night of the inci
dent, Howard drove 120 miles
from Houston to Victoria listen
ing to "gangsta rap," an outla*
genre of rap that focuses or
drugs, sex, violence and a hatrec
for police.
Tanner said the music
have prompted Howard to shoot
the officer.
He said he plans to offer evi
dence during the punishment
phase of the trial to prove the
anti-cop music affected Howard
decisions that night.
"We hope to show thatfoi
many years Ronald listened to
this gangsta rap music, and all
talked about was selling drugs,
killing cops, hating white people
— real violent music," Tannei
said. "We think that over a period
of time this music had a tremen
dous effect on him."
According to grand jury testi
mony, Howard, who later con
fessed to the shooting, said, "That
DPS trooper pulled me over for
nothin'. I shot him."
Angry bees
attack, kill
two dogs
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BROWNSVILLE - An aggres
sive swarm of bees have stung to
death two dogs, but officials are
uncertain whether the bees were
Africanized.
Carlos Garcia said "millions" of
bees attacked Ivy, his 1-year-old
German Shepherd, outside his
house Monday morning.
"They covered him up. ... I
couldn't see the dog. I had never
seen so many (bees). The dog ran
(under a storage shed) ... and they
still went after him," Garcia said.
"They're so wild they killed the
dog in 20 minutes," he said. "They
could have killed me too."
Garcia said he was stung aboul
20 times on his head, arms and
body as he tried to let the dog loose
from its chain.
The bees attacked him as he
tried to throw water on the dog.

he had no set agenda except to
continue and enhance Rice's com
mitment to academic achieve
ment.
The 52-year-old Gillis replaces
George Rupp, who announced his
resignation last October reported
ly because of a dispute with the
board over fund-raising tactics.
Rupp, who spent eight years at
Rice, has since been named Co
lumbia University's president.
"Today, Rice University is at
least as well-positioned as any
university to assume a pivotal
role in leadership in higher educa
tion," Gillis told more than 100
people who had gathered for the
announcement.
Later, Gillis said he first had to
learn more about Rice before he
could make any "intelligent pro
posals." He indicated no great
changes were imminent, but he
admitted to doing things "a little
differently."
"I think out loud a lot. And I
want to think out loud a lot with
my faculty, with my administra
tive team and the board," Gillis
said. "I tend to be very open,
frank, while trying to be as diplo
matic as possible."
Rice officials would not dis
close Gillis' salary. Rupp report
edly made $190,000 annually.
Stephen Hackney, a student
and member of the search team,
said he was struck by Gillis' "en
ergy, enthusiasm, directness and
intelligence."
