Hutchison plans to speak with Texas A&M students, at length about the issues, some time in mid-October,” Beckwith said. “This will be the time she covers all the important issues and questions students may have.” Beckwith said there was no way Hutchison would have scheduled to meet with him because she was in Washington D.C. at the time. “Fisher is complaining because Kay won’t jump start his dying campaign,” Beckwith said. “She has been in Washington doing her job and is under no obligation to furnish him with pub licity or a campaign.” Administration officials said Clinton’s speech puts the United States on a sure path to invasion, unless the military leaders flee into exile. The administration said the United States also was determined to halt brutal human rights abus es, avoid a massive influx of refugees and defend democracy in thq Caribbean. Former Secretary of State James A. Baker III said th6 United States should not invade '"because the national interest doesn’t require that we put American lives at risk. > iaiti Continued from Page 1 p other countries problems.” I Speculation concerning the ■vasion indicates that the ma neuver will be overwhelming for Hie Haitian military and short lived. Officials have said the op eration should not last more than seven months with many forces withdrawn within weeks after the initial invasion. Dawson does not foresee a lot of casualties for U.S. troops from direct conflict with the Haitians who will be outnumbered by U.S. troops 20,000 to 7,000. “When people are in a war zone there will be losses,” Daw son said of the U.S. troops. “But the Haitians are so out numbered and have so little fire power, we will probably suffer as many casualties from accidents as we will from combat.” (Pertussis DY mgh Vaccine Stud; 1 ! ), 1994 26, 1994 ly Is Filled) ibility for the s 1 , 2nd Floor mm ii mum ION i chief IS, Opinion editor ILNE, Photo editor DER, Sports editor , Aggielife editor ann, Stephanie Dube,® 1 ' ;a Messer, Angela NeavfS lafi Islam, Jennifer Monti* jacoby, Tim Moog, CiM anifer Gressett Frnka, Aja Henderson,!' tegliola, George Nasr,fl it ro Oakley Michelle Oleson day during the fall and if ' i (except University bolidr 1 '; at College Station, TX1$' McDonald Building,Ter* ‘exas A&M University dism.

However, he said, since most computer thefts are not planned in advance, and carry ing cable cutters would arouse suspicion, cables are still good security devices. LeMay said locking doors to the rooms where equipment is kept is often not enough to pre vent the equipment being stolen. “On campus, people often climb up the ceiling tiles and Texas lawyer soon to face execution HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) — Attorney George Lott, con victed in the 1992 bloody ram page at the Tarrant County courthouse that left two lawyers dead, could die early next week because virtually nothing has been filed to halt his scheduled execution. In an unusual procedure, Lott, 47, who defended himself at his trial, is continuing to act as his own attorney and is re fusing legal help to avert his lethal injection, scheduled for early Tuesday. “We’ve had no indication he wants us to assist him in find ing him someone,” said Steve Hall of the Texas Resource Center, which arranges legal help for condemned killers. ‘"He essentially has refused to par ticipate in the process. As of right now, we don’t have any plans to do anything. It’s a very, very unusual case, a very unusual circumstance, no doubt about that.” Although no appeals have been filed, a defense attorneys group on Thursday petitioned the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals to review whether Lott, a University of Texas law school graduate, was compe tent to represent himself and waive appeals. “They’re kind of interlop ers,” Charles Mallin, assis tant chief of the appellate section of the Tarrant County District Attorney’s office, said of the petition from the Austin-based Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association. “I don’t think the Criminal Defense Lawyers Association has standing. They haven’t made an adequate showing they can be next-friend to Mr. Lott.” According to the petition, the group contends Lott does not understand the death penalty. “They’re absolutely in error,” Mallin said. “They’re wrong.” It was uncertain whether the Texas Court of Appeals would hold a hearing on the petition. Lott was convicted of killing two attorneys — Chris Mar shall, 41, and John Edwards, 33 — and wounding- three oth ers during his July 1, 1992 shooting spree. He said he opened fire be cause he was angry over the way an appeals court han dled his divorce and child custody case. He’s been on death row since March 1993 and his ex ecution would be the quickest in Texas from time of convic tion to punishment. Lott’s conviction already has been upheld by the Texas ap peals court. get into locked offices, so equip ment must be tied down,” LeMay said.
