WANT ADS WORK WONDERS CALL 872-3033 Corsicana Daily Sun MONDAY, NOVEMBER 15, Rough night in El Paso Thousands of motorists were stranded on the icy streets of El Paso Friday night as about four inches of snow and low 20s temperatures hit the city. Motorists could not get through the snow and ice-piled streets and spent the night in motel lobbies and other warm places. (AP Wirephoto) Convicted murderer still waiting as legal proceedings continue SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Today was to have marked the end for Gary Gilmore. He wanted it that way. Instead, more legal battles loom over the fate of the 35- year-old convicted murderer, who foreswore appeals and demanded to go before a firing squad on schedule.

Last week, after court rulings first delayed the execution and then restored the original schedule, Gov. Calvin L. Rampton stayed the execution pending a review of the sentence Wednesday by the state Board of Pardons. So today, instead of drinking the six-pack of beer that he had asked for as his final meal and then facing the firing squad, Gilmore waits in state prison as the fight goes on. Dennis Boaz, lawyer, said he plans to ask the pardons board for another early date with the firing squad.

Boaz said his client wants to avoid the of waiting. Boaz said that if the state is unwilling to execute Gilmore on schedule it should release him, on grounds that he would otherwise be imprisoned without a legal sentence. Meanwhile, attorney V. Jinks Dabney of the American Civil Liberties Union said the ACLU is preparing strategy to prevent the setting of another execution date. The ACLU opposes the death sentence as cruel and unusual punishment, and Dabney said ACLU representatives hope to outline their arguments for board chairman George Latimer before Wednesday.

Gilmore killed a motel clerk during a robbery. Exaggerated pledges reported WASHINGTON (AP) Four men are seeking the job of House Democratic leader. After months of soliciting support from fellow Democrats, the candidates report pledges that add up to more than 500. The only problem is that there are only 290 Democrats in the House. These exagerated and conflicting claims of support are part of the stiff leadership contest to succeed Majority Leader Thomas P.

The Coast Guard air and sea search covered 1,000 square miles around sunken ship before being suspended late Sunday. The missing sailors were presumed drowned. The ship, Carnelian-1, sank last Thursday 1,400 miles northwest of Hawaii in the worst weather of the year.

The crewmen were seen bobbing amidst 20-to 30-foot waves, clinging to the floating cargo of logs. Austin bank stuck with non-paying state tenant By MARK BROWNING Harte-Hanks Austin Bureau AUSTIN What kind of landlord would throw the blind out into the street? Certainly not City National Bank; not until after 14 months of not paying rent, at least. City Bank, in fact, has been so generous to the State Commission for the Blind that the commission paid any rent on 22,000 square feet of of office space for the last 14 months. It all charity on the part, of course. What happened was that the State Board of Control, which supervises the leasing of state office space, refused to pay for the Commission of the offices because lower rental space was available.

The going rate for office space in the bank building, located two blocks south of the State Capitol, is 59 cents per square foot a month. At that rate, the Commission for the bill over the last 14 months would be about $181,000. Board of Control Director Homer Foerster described for a somewhat amused legislative Budget Board Monday how the Commission for the Blind got its office space. The commission, he said, was already in the City Bank building when the new Stephen F. Austin state office building was completed.

The Board of Control allocated 22,000 square feet of space in the new building to the Blind Commission, but the commission preferred to stay where it was. Plenty of other state agencies wanted the space in the Stephen F. Austin Building, so the Blind Commission was allowed to stay in the bank. Then the contract for leasing office space came up for renewal in September, 1975. Bids were taken, and an office building in south Austin underbid City Bank by $70,000, Foerster said.

In accordance with state law, the Blind Commission was to have moved to the cheaper rent space, but it found the building to be unsuitable for use by the handicapped. The Blind Commission asked the Board of Control to deviate from its normal procedure and take new bids on office space. That bidding process was finally concluded in October, 1976, but in the meantime the Board of Control had refused to authorize rent payment to City Bank. For 14 months the bank had a tenant using 22,000 square feet of office space but paying no rent. been sort of a holdover said Charles Hoehne, assistant director of the Commission for the Blind.

As for City Bank, want to kick them out. That would be bad Foerster told the budget board. The bank eventually filed suit against the Board of Control and Blind Commission for back- payment of rent, Hoehne said, but under the Texas Constitution it legally sue the state without the permission. An Austin district judge, however, issued an order that the bank be paid $10,000 in rent for a time during October and November. The Blind Commission was already in the process of moving by the time the judgement was ordered, and should be in another office building several blocks away from City Bank by January.

To collect the 14 months back rent, Hoehne said, the bank will probably have to ask the Legislature for permission to sue the state. Relations between the bank and Blind Commission are still good, he said, since the bank personnel have been nice and Even so, 14 months rent for 22,000 square feet of office space is no laughing matter. The bank apparently had enough of its arrangement with the state, Foerster told the budget board. When the Board of Control advertised for bids a second time to find suitable space for the Blind Commission, City Bank did not bid on this second Foerster said. church to admit blacks been blocked.

Burton is generally conceded to be ahead, but he is said to have lost much of the early lead he compiled during the last 18 months. McFall is usually considered to be last. His prospects are said to have been hurt by the disclosure two weeks ago that he had accepted $3,000 in cash from Korean businessman Tongsun Park two years ago. Park also gave McFall a party when he became majority whip in 1973 and gave him a silver tea set. Three months ago, McFall was given a digital watch by a South Korean legislator.

At least 22 present and former congressmen are reported to be under federal investigation about allegations that they took cash, campaign donations, jewelry, furniture, vacations or other gifts from Park and agents of the South Korean government who reportedly wanted to influence U.S. attitudes toward Seoul. also has been linked to Park. He was the beneficiary of a 1973 birthday party given by Park at a fancy Georgetown private club. Aides say he took no gifts or money from Park.

McFall aides ridiculed rumors that McFall would withdraw and throw his support to Wright. Bolling also declined to speculate about the impact of the Park donations on campaign. PLAINS, Ga. (AP) President-elect Jimmy Carter says that when his small Baptist church decided during an emotional meeting to drop its racial barriers, was just one of the church members." He later welcomed a black man to a worship service. Carter, according to his fellow Baptists, exerted no pressure during the two and three-quarter hour meeting Sunday.

Nonetheless, the congregation did as he has advocated since 1965. It opened the doors to all who want to worship, regardless of race. And, it voted 107-84 to retain the pastor who agreed with pro- integration stand, The Rev. Mr. Bruce Edwards.

The church decision began a week for Carter in which he plans to hold a news conference today at the auditorium of the Southwest Georgia Agricultural Experimental Station near here. Wednesday, he will meet with Vice President-elect Walter F. and congressional leaders near Atlanta. The church also voted to set up a screening committee consisting of the pastor and four deacons to be elected by the congregation in about two weeks. felt the whole world was looking at Plains said one of the deacons, Frank Williams.

The church controversy was started by the Rev. Mr. Clennon King, a nondenominational minister from Albany, onetime Republican gubernatorial candidate and civil rights activist. Just before the Nov. 2 election, he tried unsuccessfully to join the church in a move many saw as an effort to embarrass Carter.

Sunday, Carter waited in the rain and said after the votes were announced, think wonderful. It vindicates the church. It vindicates the people of Carter attended an evening service Sunday with about 65 other persons, including the black Secret Service agent who frequently accompanies him to church. The whites-only policy, adopted in 1965, had been ignored for black reporters, agents, and the tourists who came to Plains during candidacy, until the Rev. Mr.

King publicly challenged it. Midway through the service, a black man from Selma, N.C., Roger Sessoms, entered the church and sat in the pew in front of Carter. Then the congregation set up the committee to screen applicants for church membership. Finally, it voted 120-66 for a motion offered by Jerome Dallas policeman killed DALLAS (AP) A shooting incident late Saturday at a West Dallas housing project left both a Dallas policeman and his alleged assailant dead. Patrolman Alvin Moore, 26, died in the emergency room of Parkland Hospital.

David Lane said Moore staggered out of the apartment, walked a short distance and told Lane: shot.

I Doctors at Parkland unsuccessfully administered openheart massage. Moore was the first black policeman to be killed in the line of duty in the history of the Dallas department and the first officer killed since Alvin Hallum, who was shot to death Aug. 21, 1975.

Marital plans cause speculation LONDON (AP) The marital plans of Prince Charles if, indeed, there are any are once again causing speculation here. According to the London Sunday Mirror, European royalty has begun gossiping about whether the prince, who was 28 on Sunday, will marry the 22-year-old daughter of the Grand Duke Jean of Luxembourg, Princess Marie-Astrid. Countries withdraw from pageant LONDON (AP) Zanella Tshabalala, 19-year-old Miss Swaziland, and Anne-Lise Lesur, 18-year-old Miss Mauritius, came to London to compete in the Miss World beauty contest.

Persons expecting to be social security beneficiaries beginning in January, 1977, must file for the benefits now, says David Helmer, Manager of the Corsicana Social Security Office. Helmer said a rule of thumb in applying for benefits at any time during the year is to visit the social security office about two or three months before the desired date of the first check arrival. He said this will allow time for clearing up any problems which might arise and will provide social security adequate time to process claims to insure timely arrival of checks. are certain things you can do to help get your check on Helmer said.

At the time you file, you will be required to prove your age. A birth certificate or baptismal record recorded before age five is preferable, but if you have neither, other documents may be used to establish your date of Helmer advises applicants to bring whatever documents they have which show age or date of birth. If they have been in the military service any time since 1939, additional credit may be obtained. Proof of military service is required to give credit where it may be due. Finally, Helmer advises that those persons already set up on social security records, but who are not receiving benefits because of earning too much money and who plan to stop work at the end of the year, also need to contact the social security office to discuss their proposed retirement.
