Republicans accuse DA of being unfair
The Associated Press
AUSTIN — Republican leaders Tuesday
stepped up their attack on Democratic Travis
County District Attorney Ronnie Earle, calling
for him to withdraw from his investigation of
U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison's tenure as
state treasurer.
Fred Meyer, state GOP chairman, said Earle
has conflicts of interest that should prevent
him from conducting a fair investigation.
"If we are going to have a fair investiga
tion, it's going to have to be done by some
body other than District Attorney Ronnie Ear
le," Meyer said.
Steve McCleery, first assistant to Earle, said
Tuesday, "None of these allegations have any
merit."
"All these things being raised are pretty
common defense lawyer tactics to divert the
attention away from us doing our job, which is
for us to investigate these allegations," Mc
Cleery said.
Meanwhile, an Austin defense attorney
who has served for and against Earle, said he
believes Hutchison was being given fair treat
ment.
Hutchison is scheduled to appear Thursday
before a Travis County grand jury investigat
ing allegations that state employees and
equipment were used for personal and politi
cal purposes during her term as treasurer.
Texas law forbids public officials from us
ing a state office for non-state business.
Meyer said Earle shouldn't be investigating
Hutchison because he had sought an appoint
ment to the Senate seat when it was vacated
by Lloyd Bentsen. Hutchison won the job in a
special election June 5.
Earle said at the outset of his office's three-
month-old investigation that he would not run
for the Senate next year, when Hutchison is up
for re-election.
Meyer also said Earle should be barred
from heading the probe because he and his
wife, Twyla, would be called as witnesses in
the case should it ever reach the courtroom.
Twyla Earle served in the state Treasury
under Gov. Ann Richards, who preceded
Hutchison as treasurer.
Meyer said Earle would be called to testify
about an investigation by his office in 1992
that found political activity at Hutchison's
Treasury office was inadvertent and properly
disposed of internally.
^Earle should not be leading an investiga
tion against Mrs. Hutchison when he will be
called as a witness for Mrs. Hutchison," Mey
er said. "And Earle should not continue to
lead this investigation when his own wife was
present and participating in maintaining polit
ical correspondence at the treasurer's office in
a Democratic administration."
Prosecutors have declined to say whether
Hutchison is a target of their investigation. But
an Aug. 19 letter from Earle's office to the sen
ator's attorneys suggests that she is.
"Your client has been accused of serious
criminal conduct and along with others is sub
ject to a criminal investigation," that letter
said.
State Republicans have repeatedly claimed
that Hutchison is being railroaded by Earle be
cause she is Republican.
They say Earle is treating Hutchison less
fairly than previous public officials who have
been investigated by the district attorney's
Public Integrity Unit.
But Bill Willrns, who had served in Earle's
office during investigations of former Attor
ney General Jim Mattox and former Treasurer
Warren Harding — both Democrats — dis
agreed.
Willrns, who openly criticized Earle while
Willrns represented former Speaker of the
House Gib Lewis, said Hutchison is getting
fair treatment.
"If the complaint is, T am being treated dif
ferently because I am a Republican,' I haven't
seen that," Willrns said. "I have never known
Earle to make a difference on who he prose
cutes strictly on their political affiliation/'
Two Plainview teens
wounded in drive-by
The Associated Press
PLAINVIEW — Two teen-age girls leaving school Tuesday were
shot in the head in the parking lot of Plainview High School, authori
ties said. Two men were later arrested and charged with attempted
murder.
Veronica Cordero, 17, and Esparanza Lucio, 14, were in guarded
condition at area hospitals, police said. Ms. Cordero was being treated
Tuesday night at University Medical Center in Lubbock. Ms. Lucio was
at Methodist Plainview Hospital.
Kevin Polk, 19, and Timothy D. Uddley, 17, both of Plainview, were
arrested and charged with two counts each of attempted murder. The
two were being held in the Hale County Jail on $100,000 bail bond
each, said Plainview Police Capt. William Mull.
The shooting occurred at 3:55 p.m. after a red Ford Escort pulled
into the school parking lot, witnesses said. One witness said she heard
shots "and everybody started running."
Ms. Lucio, a freshman, was hit in the neck and Ms. Cordero, a
sophomore, was struck just above the right ear, said Nancy Carthel,
house supervisor at Methodist Hospital Plainview.
Police said the two girls were not the targets of the suspects' gunfire.
"Evidently it was just an argument between two groups of boys,"
Mull said. "The two ladies were more or less bystanders. It appears the
only involvement they had was standing in the wrong place at the
wrong time."
Police said they were checking rumors that the shooting may have
been in retaliation for one youth chasing another with a gun at a carni
val several weeks ago.
Meanwhile, police also arrested Tuesday a man suspected in a relat
ed drive-by shooting that occurred about 45 minutes after the first inci
dent.
Lorenzo Cordero, who police said is the uncle of Ms. Cordero, al
legedly shot from his vehicle at four teens in another car. One passen
ger, Francisco Juanes, suffered minor cuts from flying glass, said Lt.
Michael Carroll.
Cordero, 21, has been charged with attempted murder and is being
held in the Hale County Jail on $50,000 bond. Mull said.
Police suspect the second shooting was meant as revenge to the first.
Mull said. "We really suspect it was in retaliation to his niece being
shot," he said.
A full-time police officer was assigned to the Plainview High School
last spring following several incidents of violence. A student was ar
rested for carrying a gun at the high school last year.
School district officials said counselors will be available Wednesday
to talk with students.
"We have an advisory period that is designed for dealing with
things like this," said superintendent Dennis Townsend. "If the stu
dents want to talk, there will (be) people they can talk to."

The Associated Press
HUNTSVILLE — The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday halted the
scheduled execution of Richard Lee Beavers, who had volunteered to
be put to death but then changed his mind.
Beavers, 35, faced lethal injection before dawn Wednesday for the
Aug. 19, 1986, slaying of a Houston restaurant manager, Doug Odle,
during an abduction and robbery. Odle's wife, Jenny, also was shot but
she survived and testified against Beavers.
A request for a stay of execution or a change of his execution date
had been denied earlier Tuesday by State District Judge Woody
Densen.
But Justice Antonin Scalia, about nine hours before the execution
could occur, ordered the state to postpone the punishment until the full
Supreme Court can consider a formal appeal filed in his behalf. The
earliest that will be is when the begins its 1993-94 term next month.

Multiculturalism
Continued from Page 1
a senior psychology major, said
the College Republicans are not
against a multicultural class.
"We are against requiring the
class and trying to pass this re
quirement off as multicultural,"
Satsky said.
Satsky said the six hours re
quired of Liberal Arts students
are not true multicultural classes.
"If they would change the re
quirement of three hours of racial,
ethnic and gender classes to inter
national classes, then we would
support it," Satsky said.
The College Republicans
passed a resolution this summer
officially condemning the require
ment and asking alumni to with
hold financial contributions until
the issue can be settled.
Jim Jeter, associate executive
director of the Association of For
mer Students, said he has re
ceived more mail from alumni
about this issue than any other
during his 13 years with the asso
ciation.
"I've communicated with 300
or 400 people, and other members
in my office have talked to many
as well," Jeter said. "It's by far
the most response I've received,
and most are not operating out of
ignorance."
Street said some concerned
alumni do not know enough
about the‘r^quiremlent. -
"What bajgs me about some of
the alumni sending in their oppo
sition is that they don't even
know what the requirement is,"
Street said. "They are responding
in a way that is not informed."
The Student Senate will intro
duce their own version of the re
quirement for study and discus
sion at their meeting tonight.
Ben Dale, chairman of the Stu
dent Senate's academic affairs
committee, spoke positively
about the requirement, saying,
"This has nothing to do with poli
tics, this has to do with becoming
better Aggies."
"This course is for education,
not indoctrination," he said.
The Young Conservatives of
Texas will be holding a rally
against the requirement in front
of the Academic Building at 3
p.m.
