He said it is important to have someone representing kids in the Cabinet. • Clinton accepted some of the blame for the nation’s drug problems. He criticized Dole for voting against the 1993 crime bill that imposed the death penalty for drug kingpins. Clinton, Dole back on campaign trial AP Letbetter said the licensing process assures that product bear ing the A&M name will positively represent the University. Letbetter said he will not ap prove dorms who use the name of the University in a negative manner. He said he has refused re quests from dorms wanting to use Playboy bunnies, profanity or nudity on their T-shirts because he and his staff consider them of fensive. Letbetter said when he rejects an item he is following guideline 14, which states that “any artwork found to be ‘de grading,’ ‘demeaning,’ or ‘simply ugly’ will not be approved to car ry the University’s trademarks.” Letbetter has been with the li censing office for 8 1/2 years and makes the final decision in approv ing a product after discussion with his staff. He also asks students’ opinions of certain T-shirts and slo gans seeking approval. Letbetter said there are three purposes for the licensing office, but its primary goal is to protect the outstanding Aggie reputation. These purposes include protect ing University trademarks, promot ing A&M and making a profit. He said messages on A&M para phernalia are a direct reflection of what Aggies are like. “Some students feel I am too conservative,” Letbetter said. “But remember that whatever is written on a T-shirt or a bumper sticker or anything else that says Texas A&M goes out into the world to say what kind of people Aggies are.” TOMS RIVER, N.J. (AP) — Hustling back to the campaign trail after their first debate, Bob Dole pressed his comeback quest Monday by insisting he’s the candidate voters can trust while President Clinton pursued business support in states that normally vote Republican. Both candidates were trying to build on momentum they claimed from Sunday’s show down in Hartford, Conn., al though early polls suggested the debate had produced little movement in the race. Traveling across New Jersey in a bus caravan, an energized Dole underscored a line of attack he had sounded in the debate. “When people think of Bob Dole, I want them to think of the word trust. Trust. Trust. And when they think of the word Bill Clinton, I want them to think of the word fear,” Dole told sup porters gathered on a high school football field. “I trust you, you trust me.” Dole pressed his plan for a 15- percent tax cut by campaigning with Republican Gov. Christie Whitman, who upset Democrat ic incumbent James Florio in 1993 largely on the promise of a big tax cut. Clinton, for his part, all but ignored the debate in remarks to a business audience in Hartford, where lie accepted the endorse ment of 2,500 corporate leaders, many of whom already were known as Clinton supporters. “I have wondered for years why the Democratic Party shouldn’t have at least as much support in “When people think of Bob Dole, I want them to think of the word trust.... And when they think of the word Bill Clinton, I want them to think of the word fear.” Bob Dole Presidential candidate the business community as the other party,” Clinton said. If the president was publicly ignoring the debate, not all his supporters were. A sign hanging from the bal cony read, “One Down. Congrat ulations, Mr. President!” Both campaigns unleashed new ads to complement the can didates’ messages, Dole’s casting Clinton as “a real spend-and-tax liberal,” and Clinton’s promoting his presidency as “moving peo ple from welfare to work.

We accept competitors coupons VISA Perot criticizes President SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Ross Perot on Monday derided the first presidential debate as “pingpong” and proof of his contention he was kept out to keep the focus off is sues such as campaign reform and the national debt. “We were in the 1992 debates and we were excluded from the 1996 debates, and if you watched last night, you’ll know why,” Perot told the annual clinical congress of the American College of Surgeons. “They didn’t have to talk about the real issues. We kept dragging that little skunk up by the tail” four years ago. Perot, who unsuccessfully chal lenged a bipartisan debate com mission’s decision to exclude him from the televised debate between President Clinton and Republican Bob Dole, said the panel wanted “a nice, tight little theatrical event, which you saw last night.” “If you listened last night, it was confusing because they were both playing pingpong, and denying what the other said, and not get ting to the facts and the numbers,” Perot told the standing room crowd of 2,000. The Texas billionaire, return ing to a favorite campaign theme, warned that the nation is headed for “financial meltdown” if tougher action isn’t taken on the national budget, trade deficits and debt. Perot flew cross-country after a post-debate appearance on CNN’s “Larry King Live” to keep his longstand ing speech commitment here. The pub lic-shy Perot plans to make more personal appearances before Election Day, according to his cam paign spokesperson Sharon Holman. She said a schedule of other speaking ap pearances, rallies and television spots is being put together. Perot has complained about difficulty in purchasing prime time television spots for his 30- minute campaign commercials, but an Oct. 12 buy has been made on Fox at 9:30 p.m. EDT, and an other is in the works with CBS.
