Rodeo
Continued from Page 3
“I love the atmosphere and the
people are so nice,” Fehler said.
“You meet the neatest people
and make new friends also.
“This year, I am taking busi
ness cards to hand out to people,”
she said.
To most people, it might seem
like the Houston Livestock Show
and Rodeo is no more than a
bunch of students playing around
with livestock and listening to a
wide variety of music.
Turns out, it is a great way for
participants to meet a few fellow
Aggies, make business contacts
and have fun.

Equal treatment
needed for actors
MONTEREY PARK, Calif. (AP) —
Work-release must cease for
Robert Downey Jr.
So says the
Los Angeles
County Sheriff’s
Department,
which opposes
any more escort
ed excursions
for the actor,
who is serving a
six-month jail
sentence for
drug violations.
Downey has twice been allowed
to leave jail for a day to work on
movies. The most recent trip
came Feb. 17, when deputies es
corted him to Paramount Studios
to do some recording.
“It’s too disruptive and not the
way to operate a jail for the con
venience of any inmate, no matter
who that might be,” Sheriff Sher
man Block said Wednesday.
Judge Lawrence A. Mira ordered
Downey, 32, to pay for the escorts.
After a series of drug arrests
and second chances, the actor
was sent to jail Dec. 8 for violat
ing probation by failing to stay
clean and sober.
On Feb. 13, Downey suffered a
slight cut on his, nose gfter fighting
with another inmpte. He vyas moved
to another jail across the street.
Spice Girls’ show
canceled in India
NEW DELHI, India (AP) — The
Spice Girls have no plans to per
form at an Indian archaeological
site famed for its erotic sculp
tures, a spokeswoman for the
group said Thursday.
A newspaper report about the
British pop group’s planned per
formance in November in the cen
tral Indian town of Khajuraho
drew protests from a leading ex
ponent of the classical dance
form called Bharatanatyam.
“The profile of the Spice Girls
does not match that of the tem
ples,” Geeta Chandran said last
week. “Eroticism sans spirituality
will be reduced to pornography.”
On Thursday, Sharon Hanley of
the London-based agency that
handles public relations for the
group said: “That story broke here
a week ago and it was not true.”
Archaeological authorities have
barred even Indian classical
dancers from performing at the
temples of Khajuraho, 300 miles
southeast of New Delhi.

1 think they should not be [paid] because it should be intrinsic mo
