The Waco Citizen from Waco, Texas • Page 1

VOTO TUJtESIIM'in Brazos Trails By BILL FOSTER Publisher, Waco The Waco wr FRIDAY cl e- empire microfilh 816423 381 250 Super Information Your home-town community newspaper Can you believe Super Tuesday is Tuesday? Will it do what it was designed to do? Bring more attention to Texas. As of this writing I believe it has. sure it has helped some to focus national attention on our problems. But there are too many states to cover so quickly. And what was all the big rush of having it so early? We used to vote in May on these same candidates.

Texas (and Waco) have what we call an open primary. You can vote Democratic or Republican. But not both. So you will want to study the ballot in our paper before you go to the polling places to see who you want to vote for. You vote for a Republican president and for a Democratic Tax Assessor collector candidate.

There are some 167 ballots and each may have more than one ballot. There are 82 precincts in the county. There will probably be a lot of cross over votes Tuesday. Conservatives will want to vote for Bush or Jack Kemp. Religious followers of Pat Robertson will follow him to the Republican polls.

On the Democratic side there will be a race on between Dick Gephardt and Michael Dukakis and possibly A1 Gore. Jesse Jackson will no doubt have a lot of supporters inWaco and across the South. I agree it will probably be a brokers convention for the Democrat Gary Hart, Paul Simon and Bruce Babbitt will be on your ballot and that is because they had to be printed so early. Another fall out of Super Tuesday, we suppose. On the Republican Ballot will be A1 Haig, and Pete Du Pont who have long since dropped out.

My unscientific polls says Bush and Dole will be the leaden of the Republicans followed by Robertson. Gephardt, Dukakis and Jackson for the Democrats. Whatever the results our newspaper will be calling in the totals to election headquarters in New York. This is where the networks and others will pick them up from NES. Few of the candidates seem to be worried about small businesses.

Most of them want to vote to put more rules and regulations on us. And we already have more than we can handle and operate a business. For instance we had to go back and look up some figures from seven years ago for one federal government agency. In most business transactions that would be beyond the statue of limitations. But not so with the government.

Pat Robertson says he wants to eliminate unnecessary counterproductive government regulations on business. Hooray for him. Bush opposes some of the new regulations that are now in the making. Dole is on the fence on some of these new regulations. Kemp opposes the new regs, but apparently he is not in the running.

Contrary to what you see on TV Grant Jones or Temple Dixon will not be on your ballot. Weather Weathers The Roast At the Robert Weathers roast the other day at Ridgewood I got to think ing how our daily worries are the same. He worries about people, community happenings and money. So do I. In our lifetime we have both seen a lot of kids come through our operation, get some valuable experience while going to school, and then go out into the world and make something of themselves.

Some of Weathers came back to the affair to lay some kind words on him. Probably in his case and mine, these making many times more money than we are. Robert believes like I do, in giving a person a chance. Not once, but maybe several times, if what it takes. At the banquet I got to thinking he should have had another room for his employees.

I could fill a room too. I guess the nature of the business. In Waco, Texas we pay what they do in Dallas or New York, so we have to have dedicated people or trainees. I have had both and so has Robert. We both use a lot of students.

Jay Bobbitt, a successful real estate developer in Dallas now, came back to tell what working for Robert at WACO radio has meant to him. How Robert helped him when he needed it. David Hinton came back from California where he told virtually the same success story. He lacked 8 hours of graduating from Baylor. Robert tried to talk him into staying but the student wanted to go on to greater things.

He was a DJ at KROY in Sacramento. Eventually, though, he took advice and came back to finish Baylor. He then went back to California to make his fortune. People like Angie Dickerson and Morgan Fairchild are now among his friends. Most of all of his said they worked for him 48 hours a week while going to school.

The radio business like the newspaper business is a demanding occupation. The Ridgewood party was his retirement party from WACO Radio after 33 years in broadcasting. He now plans to develop some real estate in HewitL He calls it the Hewitt Development Co. Sage Broadcasting bought the radio station and Leonard Fasslcr and Gerald Pock were there to pick up the tab. Leonard read a letter from Paul Harvey and President Reagan, who was also into radio at one time and still does a radio show every Saturday.

David Smith brought a proclamation from Mayor David Sibley. Other honors included a flag from Marvin Leath that flew over the capital. Gov. Clements sent a certificate that looked like a Texas flag. Many other honors were received.

Jim Miller and Ron Hall wereco- and kept the program lively. They are every morning on the twin stations. They remind themselves, Miller said, if things get too bad at WACO, there are two psychiatric hospitals next door. Bill Miller told about how Jaycee radio day got started, and is now a national happening on other stations. Miller told how he and Archie L.L.

Staccone did the weekly Jaycee radio show. I kept expecting to see the Light Crust Doughboys or the Lone Star Playboys appear any minute as they reminisced back to earlier days at ACO, and then to later years. When Lee Glasgow made his mark on the station. G.P. Comer sang a song and told the early days on WACO.

Ccmir devoted his Sunday broadcast on ACO to Robert 111 event at times looked like a cross between a Lions Club meeting and a First Methodist meeting. Robert is a past president of the Waco Founder Lions and has served as Deputy Dist Gov. of the district. Rev. Freeman said a few good words and closed out the roast with a prayer.

Robert is a member of First United Methodist Church. Now see what his nephew Bobby Weathers does. P.S. Today is birthday. Birthday Robert." are VOLUME 61 WACO, TEXAS, FRIDAY, MARCH 4, 1988664100 NUMBER 17 Taped Phone Call May Exonerate Waco PD By CAMELIA FOSTER A transcript of a telephone conversation between Waco Police Detective Robert Fuller and Scott Peterson, Assistant DA, has been received through a confidential source.

The conversation taped on December 28, 1987, between Fuller and Peterson appears to exonerate the Waco Police Department of all allegations made by District Attorney Vic Feazell during a Dec. 30 press conference where he stated the police were attempting to set him up for a drug bust using a inmate of the county jail. Peterson in the phone call to Fuller, was telling him trial dates had been set for Ronald Eugene Dempsey, the inmate who reportedly told Sherrifs Deputy Truman Simons, of the alleged set-up against Feazell. He also told Fuller a second inmate, who had told authorities about the Mark Crozier murder, would be tried during the same week as Dempsey. The second inmate, had allegedly told Dempsey to see Simons about a meeting he (Dempsey) said took place between him.
