Craddick's support of deregula
tion, the bill garnered the votes
of five of the committee’s six
Republicans. With House GOP
legislators marching in lockstep
behind their leadership, oppo
nents of deregulation are focus
ing their efforts on the Senate,
said Kyle Carlton, an A&M stu
dent who testified against the
bill in a committee hearing.
“1 could never support giving
total control of tuition to a body
of unelected officials,” Carlton
said. “Administrators and
regents have little incentive to
keep tuition low.”
Carlton, a former student
senator, said he and student
leaders from universities
across Texas are working to
defeat the House bill. Although
deregulation has become a par
tisan issue in the House, with
the Republican majority in
support of it, a great deal of
skepticism remains in the
Senate, Carlton said.
One suggestion student
advocates are discussing with
legislators would require admin
istrators to hold a student refer
endum before raising tuition
beyond the rate of inflation.
In comparison to the House
bill, the Senate bill is more
friendly to students because it
helps resolve the temporary
budget crisis with a modest
tuition hike, but without giving
control over future tuition rates
to universities, Carlton said.
“All that’s needed is to raise
the (tuition) caps,” Carlton
said. “(Deregulation) is a
long-term solution to a short
term problem.”

Mayra Ruiz, 19, told the newspaper
she was proud Anguiano was from her
community.
“Even if this is a moment of grief,
they should be proud of all he’s done,”
she said.
“The spirit and memories of
Edward Anguiano will always be
among us, to inspire us and remind us
of the sacrifices of war. We will never
forget the deeds of this brave young
man,” said U.S. Rep. Solomon P. Ortiz,
D-Corpus Christi.
Anguiano was in the 3rd Infantry
Combat Support Battalion out of Fort
Stewart, Ga. He was traveling with
the 507th Maintenance Company, a
unit from Fort Bliss in El Paso, when
it was ambushed. Nine soldiers were
killed and six, all with the 507th,
were taken prisoner.One prisoner,
Pfc. Jessica Lynch, was rescued April
1; five soldiers were released April 13
and returned to the United States on
April 19.

in this weekend for addi
tional testing.
One team conducted
three tests, but the tests
“were not totally conclu
sive,” Novikov said.
The second team, a spe
cialist Mobile Exploitation
Team, “suspects that it
might be rocket fuel,”
Novikov said.
That team is expected to
return to the site in the com
ing days for further tests.
“There is a chance that
it could be chemical
weapons, but we don’t
know for sure,” Novikov
said, speaking outside of
the 4th Infantry headquar
ters, a former palace in
Saddam’s hometown of
Tikrit, near Baiji.
Also found at the site
were two unmarked vans
that soldiers first suspected
to be mobile chemical labo
ratories. Inside the vans
were three cylinders for
mixing liquids and a dosage
chart in English and
Russian. Green camouflage
netting was draped across
the front of one of the vans.
Novikov, however, said
the vans “could be” a
rocket fuel mixing station.
Near the site was a low,
brown sandstone building
that had 150 gas masks
that are of a higher quality
that those usually used by
Iraqi soldiers.
The initial tests on the
barrel were conducted
late Friday by Lt. Valerie
Phipps and Pfc. Jeremy
McCullough, chemical
warfare experts with the
1st Squadron of the 10th
Cavalry Regiment.
