Stunt driver killed after
miscalculation in collision
The Associated Press
day
night when a miscalculation in a planned midair collision sheared off
the top of his car during a thrill show at the Alamodome.
Randy Hill, 49, died instantly when his car was struck by a car dri
ven by daredevil Spanky Spangler.
Hill's wife and 3-year-old son were attending the show and wit
nessed the tragedy, organizers said.
The two cars were supposed to meet head-on at 50 mph, but a mis-'
calculation some sort caused the fatality, organizers said.
Spangler, also of Phoenix, was not hurt in the wreck, show organiz
ers said.
Organizers said Hill had retired from stunt driving eight years ago
and only recently decided to do Saturday's stunt. Saturday was the sec
ond day of the two-day San Antonio Thrill Show. The rest of the show
was Canceled after the accident.
Spectators were stunned by the tragedy.
A hush fell over the crowd immediately after the accident, spectator
Elsa Quevas said.
"The top car hit the bottom car's top, sending the roof flying off,"
Quevas said. "The car's cage was cut in half. We were all hoping that
the guy was going to pop out of the car. My kids thought it was just a
trick." going' v after the crash, Arnold Sandoval said.
Hill and Spangler had twice performed the midair stunt in the
Houston Astrodome in the^WSOs.
"This is a very, very sad- moment. We lost one of our friends
tonight," said Gary Becker, president of PACE Motofspofts.
Becker said it was only the second fatality in PACE's 26 years in the
car-show business.
Famous 3-year-old bums down house
The Associated Press
LAND O'LAKES, Fla. — When 3-year-old Mikey
Sproul took his father's car for a joyride last month
and explained "I go zoom," the act grabbed national
attention and even became fodder for late-night
show monologue jokes.
But nobody's laughing now. Mikey torched his
bedroom curtains with a cigarette lighter and burned
down his family's home, authorities said.
"The wood burned," Mikey said as investigators
picked through the ashes of Thursday night's blaze.
"Now I have no more house."
As with his joyride, Mikey escaped unharmed. He
was brought out of the burning house by his father,
29-year-old Mike Sproul, who suffered second -and
third-degree burns to his back, arms and hands.
The boy's mother, Paula Sproul, 32, wasn't home
at the time.
Florida's Department of Idealth and Rehabilitative
Services put Mikey into protective care Friday after
receiving a complaint alleging "a lack of supervi
sion" over the boy, said spokeswoman Elaine Ful-
ion-Jones.
Neighbors, who describe the toddler as a smart
child and "a handful," said the Sprouls moved into
the house shortly before Christmas last year after
their mobile home burned down. Authorities said
they may take another look at the earlier fire.
Mikey, who will be 4 next month, became famous
Oct. 1 when authorities said he sneaked into his par
ents' bedroom as they slept, climbed onto their
dresser and snatched the car keys.
Authorities are unsure how Mikey drove the fam
ily car. At 21/2 feet tall, he can't reach the gas pedal
and see over the dashboard at the same time.
Somehow, Florida Highway Patrol officials said,
Mikey drove three-tenths of a mile down a busy
highway at midnight and didn't hurt anyone,
though he hit three parked cars, sideswiped another
and ended up in a ditch.

said. The pay is just a technicali
ty, he said, which covers the use
of state vehicles and worker's
compensation.
But, Torres gives his pay back
to the EMS because he only wants
to volunteer there.
He likes just helping Aggies, he
said.
Williams said any student who
has to go to school full-time and
and work faces added stress.
"Stress kind of builds up and
they aren't doing anything to re
lieve it," he said.
Students should make time to
relax, to do something for them
selves, even if it is only a few min
utes a day, he said.
Student Counseling Services
encourages students to plan their
activities and provides sample
schedules help budget their time.
In some instances, students can
use Beutel Health Center's
biofeedback machine to learn how
to relax, he said.
"You can tell when you are re
laxing because of a change in tem
perature," he said. "Eventually,
you will be able to do that with
out the machine."
The biofeedback machine is
available to students 24 hours a
day, but students must visit the
counseling service before using it.

The athletes and boosters acted
on their own with no involvement
by the University, A&M officials
said.
In the report, the University
found the atnletes had received
$27,800 from January 1990 and Au
gust 1992. Of that amount, $17,855
was unearned.
Texas A&M aggressively and
thoroughly investigatea the
charges and took the appropriate
steps to correct the problems, the
report said.
Several athletes were suspend
ed, including A&M's top rusher
for 1992, Greg Hill, who sat out for
five games, as a result.
