Eyewitnesses said the ill-fated orange-and-white, T-45 Goshawk jets were part of a formation of four Navy airplanes circling over a cluster of Starr County ranches. The accident was the first involving the T-45 aircraft, which is designed "purely for training," Malinowski said. Naval Air Station Kingsville is the only naval installation that flies the jet, he said. The student pilots were assigned to Training Squadron 21 at NAS Kingsville. Naval investigators were dispatched to the crash site, and Malinowski said the cause of the collision remained under investigation.

Robert Margo, operator of nearby Rancho Margo, said Navy pilots practice frequently in the desolate ranch lands of northern Starr and southern Jim Hogg counties. He said they often practice close-to-ground flight techniques that border on the acrobatic. were part of a routine training exercise in South Texas when they collided and plummeted to the cactus-covered brush ranchland below. One of the student pilots survived after ejecting by parachute, but the other was still strapped in the seat when his body was found after the crasnes about 9:45 a.m. Wednesday.

The planes were based at Naval Air Station Kingsville, about 30 miles northeast of the crash site, about four miles from La Gloria. Lt. j.g. Brian S. Dehaan, of Kentwood, died from injuries suffered in the crash, according to Navy Master Chief Mark Malinowski, a spokesman for Naval Air Station Kingsville.

Lt. j.g. Shawn B. Inman, of Southern Pines, N.C.. was taken by helicopter to a naval hospital at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, where he was treated and released for minor injuries, Malinowski said.

Box 2030 Tyler, Tx 75710 Available only in the City of Tyler Cowboys behind the chutes a tense area of chewing tobacco and prayers on bended knee tend to consider clowns a fearless bunch. "It's a lot better when you sit down on one of those things to know there's someone who'll help you out rather than save his own skin," said bareback rider Justin Swires, 29, of Pampa. DALHART (AP) Kenny the Clown hits his funny mode in a swirl of sassy exuberance.

He'll saunter across a rodeo arena firing off cap pistols and corny jokes. He romps on an inflated dinosaur and wears polyester golf pants. Things get a bit trickier eye-to-eye with a bull. Somewhere between show business and the danger zone behind the grease paint, elbow pads and bruises lies the competitive world of professional rodeo clowns. They hand out business cards, attend clowning school and sleep in the" campers they drive from rodeo to rodeo.

"It's a good job and you have to like it," said Kenny Heinz, one of two clowns working the 58th annual XIT Rodeo. "But you're not going to make much money. It's kind of a fame and glory thing. Heinz, 40, seemed quiet and reflective minutes before the XITX opened on a recent August evening. His chin and cheeks were painted white, his nose cherry red.

He wore suspenders and a rainbow of scarves spilling from baggy denim cutoffs. A straw hat covered his graying hair. He smoked. "This is another rodeo," said Heinz, a Cory, resident. "If you get too psyched up, it won't do you any good." But the audience made him erupt in silliness.

Heinz and his partner, 22-year-old Jon Flack of Kersey, drew laughs from the XIT crow'd as they caroused around between events. In one stunt, they golfed on the arena. In another, they wore white coats to drape bandages over riders who got tossed. "You don't need a doctor, you need a vet," Heinz yelled up to announcer Fritz Rundell. "A vet?" Rundell asked.

Heinz's reply: "That horse just threw up a cowboy." Rundell said downs provide relief for a rodeo announcer who can't think of anything to say. They badger the announcer, spark some enthusiasm in the crowd and when it comes to bulls, Rundell said put "a little levity into a serious situation." Heinz and Flack say instinct is key. They perched just yards in front of the chutes where bulls named Macho Man, Cortez, and Battle-Ax would come storming out. Each tizzy lasted just long enough for the bull to deposit his human load in the dirt. It was the clowns' job to flap their arms, shout, taunt and otherwise agitate the bulls into rides that earned high scores for the cowboys.

When the rider falls, the clown must serve as decoy. Sometimes, that means getting hooked. i 1 I I I I 1 1 I a1 I 1 J) jj Sale prices good xf through August 21, 1994 Save Up To $20.00 on Vttnafer Jeans BRAND 1 994 East Texas Save On Any Men's or Ladies 5 Pocket Jeans.
