Trial of accused murderer
of Selena begins today
Three Performances.
Two Days.
And Only One Location in Texas.
HOUSTON (AP) — Harris County
Courthouse personnel are bracing for a
storm of Selena followers Monday as
the suspected slayer of the Tejano mu
sic superstar goes on trial.
"What Tm hearing from the Span
ish media is this is their O.J.," said
Janet Warner, one of the courthouse
coordinators. "They're treating this like
the OJ. trial."
Security is at its highest level ever
with extra police patrols expected in
and around the courthouse where
Yolanda Saldivar will be tried for the
March 31 murder of Selena Quin
tanilla Perez, known simply by her
fans as Selena.
"It's the tightest I've ever seen,"
said Jack Thompson, administrator of
the district courts in Hpuston. "There
is extra security because a high profile
case like these demands this."
Saldivar, 35, is accused of gunning
down Selena, her former employer, as
the two met at a Days Inn motel to dis
cuss the transfer of business records.
throughout Europe, South Africa
and China.
Sally Coleman, the first A&M
student to travel abroad as an
AIESEC intern, worked in Ire
land last year for Guiness Beer.
Amy Cochran, an AIESEC
member and senior Germah ma
jor, said that when Coleman ar
rived in Ireland, she did not
have the proper work permit pa
pers. Irish customs officials were
hesitant to allow her into the
country until she mentioned she
was an AIESEC member.
“They stamped her permit
and let her in,” Cochran said.
Another story of AIESEC in
fluence, often recounted at
AIESEC conferences, is how the
Ayatollah Khomeini, the ruler of
Iran, invited the Iranian
AIESEC chapter to a personal
conference with him in 1979.
When the students arrived,
Khomeini ordered his soldiers to
kill them.
Nelms said this story shows
that Khomeini felt threatened
by the students’ international
business activities.
“He ordered his soldiers to kill
them all because he was afraid of
what AIESEC was doing to the
mentality of the youth in his
country,” he said. “I think that
people who are close-minded, like
a dictator, are threatened by us
because we are open-minded and
are changing the world.”
A&M AIESEC members will
receive an intern from Mo
rey Tech, in Monterrey, Mi
in November. This studenj
work for GMAC in Dallas.
In December, a student^
France will arrive for an if,

and Nelms said there areoh
membership benefits.
“If I could never go on
ternship. I'd still be intheoii
nization,” Puentes said.
There are numerous oppor
nities to work and train
corporate executives.
Nelms said the poise andst
confidence he has developed
cause of AIESEC activities
give him an edge when he
plies for jobs.
“I've sat across the ti
company executives mail
many, many times,” he saiil
interviewing with ajobrecnii
will be a breeze.”
Puentes said another here:
is the unique bond that
between AIESEC memti
from around the country!!
the world.
“We sing the same songs it
play the same dumb games'!
said. "It’s our own littleni
ture. I would compare:!
AIESEC bond to the bondu
have with others graduaq
from Texas A&M.”

he had to stop real violence
when Roger Clinton threat
ened to kill Kelley.
Looking back on his child
hood, Clinton said, “There are
two or three bad things that
happened. Number one, I was
deprived of a male role model.
I grew up with this idealized
version of my own father who
died before I was born. 1 loved
my stepfather very much, but
he was rarely — not never,
but rarely —• engaged in my
life. I can count, on one hand,
the number of things we did
together — the times he took
me hunting or fishing, or into
the woods to cut a Christmas
tree, or to a baseball game in
St. Louis.
“I tell you, I remember
every one of them because
there were so few.”
The second thing, Clinton
continued, was how it affected
his views on marriage and
family. Given his background,
Clinton doubted his own ability
to have a successful marriage.
“I wanted it desperately but
I did not know if I could do it,”
Clinton said. “When I was 21, I
put down the things I really
wanted in my life — and hav
ing a good family life and a
child was one ,of them. But I
just didn’t know if l could-ever
get there, because if your model
of a marriage has been bad, it
has a subconscious drag on you,

pens when you grow up in a
dysfunctional home is that, in

said. “You learn that otic
