Officials approve light rail for Ausl
: Battalion
AUSTIN (AP) — A $643 million light rail pro
ject has been approved by the Austin’s mass
transit system as the booming city struggles
with increasing traffic congestion.
The Capital Metro Board unanimously ap
proved a 14.5-mile rail line running from north
Austin to downtown that officials said could be
open by 2007. The city has been considering a
light rail project for 13 years.
“I think, next to (the new Austin Bergstrom
International Airport], this is going to be prob
ably the biggest decision made by this commu
nity in the last 100 years,” board member John
Trevino said of Monday’s vote. “And, although
it’s taken a long time to get here, the work be
gins now.”
The complete system is envisioned to be 54
miles long, running from Leander, north of the
city, to southern TYavis County.
Officials also have suggested the city’s light
rail line could connect to a commuter train from
San Antonio to Round Rock.
Capital Metro needs to study the environ
mental impact, the impact on streets and how
to pay for the million-dollar project before even
digging a hole.
“[T]his is probably going to
be the biggest decision
made by this community in
the last 100 years/'
— John Trevino
Capital Metro Board member
The board also needs to convince the Capi
tal Area Metropolitan Planning Organization,
which spends state and federal money, to ear
mark money for the project.
The proposal also needs approval by the Fed
eral Transit Administration and voters.
Voters could see the light ra
the ballot in May or Novemberne,\i; :
Capitol Metro officials have sal]
needs to send a plan to the Fed
thority by mid-November tok
line for federal rail money.
Officials said they want thefirstp;
the city’s light rail line to ninbyttiell
of Texas and the Capitol buildingtotj
highest ridership.
The light rail project approved^!
Monday leaves out the eastern ands
portions of the city.
Officials said it would cost $204ml:

TCU archivists uncover Kennedy film
News in Brief
DALLAS (AP) — In the early
1990s, Texas Christian University
(TCU) archivists sifting through a
mountain of documents donated
by former U.S. House Speaker Jim
Wright came across a Kodak film
box labeled, “Kennedy breakfast,
Nov. 1963.”
TCU library archivist Glenda
Stevens tracked down an old 8mm
projector and screened the 3
minute color film.
The silent film captured Presi
dent John F. Kennedy as he made
a breakfast speech at Fort Worth’s
Hotel Texas the morning of Nov.
22, 1963. It was his last speaking
appearance before he was assassi
nated in Dallas later that day.
Appearing with Kennedy was
his wife, Jackie, and others. The
silent film is not an original but a
copy, Stevens said. Researchers
do not know who shot the
footage, she said.
“We find all sorts of things that
delight us in a manuscript collec
tion as rich and varied as Mr.
Wright’s,” Stevens said. “This was
certainly one of the more pleasur
able discoveries as we processed
his collection.”
Photographed at the hotel,
which has since become the Radis-
son Plaza Hotel, the silent film also
contains images of Vice President
Lyndon B. Johnson and his wife,
Lady Bird; Texas Gov. John Connal-
ly and his wife, Nellie; and Wright,
Fort Worth’s Democratic congress
man and future House speaker.
Although there is more profes
sional black-and-white film and
video footage of the appearance,
which includes sound, experts are
interested in the short film because
it was shot in color close to the
front of the room.
“We would love to have a copy
here for a use in our research cen
ter,” said Gary Mack, an archivist at
The Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas.
“We have a project in mind where
we could use some of the images."
But the images cannot be distrib
uted until TCU resolves the question
of who owns the rights to the film.
Stevens said the photographer’s
original rights on the film could last
up to 70 years, which means the film
could be off-limits until 2033.
“We would very much like to
know who did the original film
ing,” she said.
She said she made some in
quiries when she first viewed the
tape, but put the film back on a
shelf when no leads developed.
Now she is renewing her
search, and if in a few months, no
originator is found, she said she
will have fulfilled a “good faith”
effort to find the photographer
and make the images available for
distribution.
