Susan Kerr, who claimed she suffered se vere mental anguish after Dan Boyles Jr. showed the video to other people, said, "l am glad that the case was brought to a suc cessful conclusion and was glad that the or deal is over." Details of the settlement were not disclosed, but Kerr's attorneys, Ronald Krist, Richard Morrison, and Kenneth Burch, said it "approx imately totals" the original $1 million award for her. Boyles' attorney Barry Chasnoff could not be immediately reached for comment by The Associated Press. On Aug. 10, 1985, Boyles, then 17, allowed three friends to videotape himself and Kerr, then 19, having sexual intercourse at the Hous ton home of one of the men. Boyles played the video three times for a to tal of 10 people, according to court records. Gossip about the video spread around the University of Texas, which Boyles attended, and Southwest Texas State University, where she was a student, Kerr said. She sought psychological help because of humiliation and embarrassment from the inci dent, court records said. In 1989, a Harris County jury ordered Boyles to pay Kerr $850,000, and the remain ing three defendants, $150,000. But last year, the Texas Supreme Court re versed the decision, and remanded the case for a new trial. The state Supreme Court ruled that Texas law does not allow people to sue others who negligently cause them emotional distress. That was the basis on which Kerr won the judgment. In protesting the state Supreme Court's decision, Kerr's attorneys said the publicity of a new trial was unfair to her. On Tuesday, Kerr said in a prepared state ment released by her attorneys, "My only re gret is that the Supreme Court's recent deci sion will make it more difficult in the future for other victims to seek redress through the courts."

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN ANTONIO - San Anto nio is on the verge of joining Texas' two other largest cities in establishing civilian review of its police department. But as city leaders and the po lice union haggle over how many citizens will be involved, critics claim both sides are mov ing too slowly and aren't going far enough. "We've come a long way," Mayor Nelson Wolff said Tues day. "This is really going to be a major, major step." Taking that step hasn't come easily in this city where the police department is still trying to over come a troubled past and where this summer three officers have been accused of wrongdoing in highly publicized cases. A citizens committee appoint ed last year recommended San Antonio create a civilian review board to hear police complaints alongside the current police board. The three-member citizens panel would have been selected from a 12-member pool of civil ians. It would make recommenda tions to the police chief, though it wouldn't investigate on its own. The City Council — noting po lice union opposition and the like lihood of a legal challenge — did not implement the recommenda tion last fall, but offered it up for bargaining with the union. The San Antonio Police Offi cers' Association, representing the approximately 1,550 police offi cers, doesn't like the idea. "We don't want it. We ain't never had it. It ain't going to work," said union president Jerry Clancy. "But politically the coun cil threw it over into our laps. We have been forced to negotiate." The union, which initially in sisted on only one civilian, now has agreed to letting two citizens sit in with the current police re view panel and hear complaints, Clancy said.

HOUSTON — The Justice Department will investigate possible criminal civil rights violations by police in several upscale communities where apparent racial disparity exists in traffic arrests. The Houston Chronicle reported Tuesday that the criminal section of the department's civil rights division has asked the FBI to probe allega tions of unequal treatment of minorities in the six cities. "This will be to determine whether there have been any incidents that would violate federal criminal civil rights statutes," said Justice Department spokesman Myron Marlin. The local FBI office already has begun contacting local officials as part of a preliminary probe of the allegations, Marlin said. Civil rights leaders had demanded a probe of the Memorial Villages area following a Chronicle investigation that found minorities, particu larly Hispanics, were arrested routinely last year on minor traffic of fenses while whites were generally ticketed and allowed to go free for the same offenses. The four-month investigation found that minorities received about a third or less of the traffic tickets in the Villages but made up at least 85 percent of the arrests for minor traffic offenses. Seventy-five percent of those arrested were Hispanics. Minority and civil rights leaders praised the federal investigation.

APPLY AT; 2102 TEXAS AVENUE SOUTH (In Target's Parking Lot) EOF State News Briefs Garth Brooks to lip-sync during fourth concert IRVING (AP) - A fourth con cert is planned next month by country superstar Garth Brooks at Texas Stadium in Irving. And this one likely will be free. But don't expect to hear Brooks sing live. Brooks is expected to lip-sync to tapes recorded live during the first three concerts Sept. 23-25. Promoter Linda Smith of Glenn Smith Presents says the free appearance will be used for filming closeups and retakes to be used in an upcoming televi sion special. Smith says details on distribu tion of tickets are being worked out. She says about 65,000 tickets are expected to be given away. Brooks' regular three concerts are sellouts. Too early to sell Koresh's goods, attorney says WACO (AP) — An attorney representing deceased Branch Davidian guru David K-oresh says it's too early to begin selling off such items as the former cult leader's cherished Camaro car. Some surviving Branch Da- vidians are seeking to sell items accumulated by the religious sect for money to use for living ex penses, said attorney Gary Cok er, who represents the Branch Davidian Seventh-day Adventist Association. But Houston attorney Percy Isgitt, who represents Koresh, is fighting the attempt. "We're still trying to deter mine who the heirs are," Isgitt said. "Until we do, it's premature to sell things." Both sides were to meet in Dis trict Judge Bill Loguc's court Tues day to help settle the dispute, but a hearing was postponed. Koresh and more than 80 of his followers died in a fire April 19 following a 51-day standoff with authorities. Isgitt also represents Paul Fat- ta, who is charged with conspira cy to murder federal officers and conspiracy to manufacture and possess unregistered machine guns. He said Fatta owns some of the property’ in question. Coker said, "Some of the property has already been sold for scrap." "We're asking the judge's permission to sell some motor cycles, cars, tractors and farm equipment," he said. "The Da- vidians owe for lodging. They'd like to get a place to stay and have some money for living ex penses. Some of their money might go to attorneys." Murderer year's 12th to die by lethal injection HUNTSVILLE (AP) - Con victed murderer Ruben Cantu quietly went to death early Tues day for killing a man during a burglary and robbery nearly nine years ago in San Antonio. Cantu, 26, had no final state ment anef Tittle reaction to the lethal drugs that flowed through his heavily tattooed arms. The execution was the fifth in Texas in five weeks and the 12th in the state this year, equalling the record number of lethal injec tions carried out in Texas all of last year. State attorneys believe at least five of the 14 inmates now with execution dates are likely to be put to death in the next two months, including Richard Wilk- erson, scheduled to die next week for a bloody rampage that left four people dead at a Hous ton amusement park in 1983. Cantu's only words as he was strapped to the death chamber gurney was a nervous "No sir" when he was asked by Warden Jack Pursley if he had a final statement.
