Hatch said that if there aren't
additional allegations of serious
wrongdoing, "I'll certainly be
there to try to help him if he will"
tell the truth.
Starr eventually must present
Congress with a report concerning
the Lewinsky affair, the Whitewa
ter land deal in Arkansas and oth
er investigations concerning Clin
ton or the White House. The
House then must decide whether
to send articles of impeachment to
the Senate, which could vote on
removing him from office.
Stephanopoulos, appearing on
ABC's "This Week With Sam Don
aldson and Cokie Roberts," noted
that "there's a lot of evidence out
there" and it was "unlikely" that
the president would continue to
deny a sexual relationship.
If he does tell "the whole sto
ry," he said, "it will cut the legs
out of Ken Starr's inquiry and
there is no way that it will go for
ward in Congress." If he doesn't,
"then the rest of his presidency
will be crippled by impeachment
proceedings."
Hatch said that with this ses
sion of Congress winding down
and still no Starr report in sight, it
was unlikely Congress would act
this year.
But Rep. Bob Barr, R-Ga., a
House Judiciary Committee mem
ber who has actively pushed for
impeachment hearings, said those
proceedings should take place re
gardless of whether the president
changes his story and apologizes.
"Our job as members of the
Congress is not to accept some
thing on its face and say that's po
litically palatable," he told "Fox
News Sunday."
Meanwhile, new information
emerged about a conversation
between Linda Tripp and White
House presidential confidant
Bruce Lindsey. It was Tripp's se
cretly taped conversations that
spurred the Lewinsky investiga
tion.
Her lawyer, Joseph Murtha,
said that in 1994, when Tripp
moved from the White House to a
Pentagon job and was a potential
witness in other controversies
such as Clinton aide Vincent Fos
ter's death, Lindsey advised her to
keep quiet.
"In a non-menacing fashion,
Lindsey told Linda that if she did
n't keep quiet that she would be
destroyed," Murtha said on CBS'
"Face the Nation."
But Murtha added that Tripp
did not take the statement as a
threat.
William Murphy, a lawyer for
Lindsey, said, "Any implication
that Bruce Lindsey threatened to
destroy anyone, including Mrs.
Tripp, is false."
Murtha and another Tripp
lawyer, Anthony Zaccagnini, also
denied reports that Mrs. Tripp
once had considered stealing Ms.
Lewinsky's dress. They said Ms.
Lewinsky showed the dress,
which she bought at The Gap, to
Tripp on three occasions. Tripp
"did see something that appeared
to be a stain; what that stain is
Linda doesn't know," Zaccagnini
told ABC.

“Usually, the hottest parts of the year are the first two weeks of Au
gust. So it goes without saying that we’ve really been baking.’’
Statewide, at least 96 heat-related deaths have occured this summer,
which ends on Sept. 22. . / ..
Belcher notes that reliable local weather information has been kept
since 1911, when temperatures were recorded at a site six miles south
west of College Station.
Since 1952, however, official temperatures have been recorded at
Easterwood Airport.
