MARFA - A former Marfa man
pleaded guilty to wire fraud
Thursday in Midland federal
court, a court clerk said Tuesday.
William P. Orrell II was indicted in April by a Pecos federal
grand jury on a charge of extortion via interstate commerce, according to the Pecos Enterprise.
In March, Orrell transmitted by
fax from Tennessee to Marfa a
threat to damage the reputation
of a Marfa man by releasing an
embarrassing videotape if the
man didn't pay Orrell $140,000,
the Pecos newspaper reported.
When he is sentenced on Jan. 3,
1994, by federal Judge Lucius
Bunton. Orrell faces up to five
years in prison, a $250,000 fine
and up to three years of supervised release, the court clerk
said.
The original indictment was superseded by a subsequent indictment on August 6, charging
Orrell with six counts of extortion and transporting obscene
material in his van. defense attorney Mike Barclay of Alpine said
Tuesday.
Orrell, who has since moved
Marfa library gets intellectual freedom award
MARFA - The Marfa Public
Library and its board of trustees
have been selected to receive the
first Intellectual Freedom Award
from the Border Regional Library Association at its annual
awards banquet on Friday, November 12 in El Paso.
The award honors the Marfa
library and its trustees for supporting First Amendment rights.
The library was selected on the
basis of its excellent collection,
which provides consistent support for a wide range of materials
for adults and children.
The association is composed of
librarians from throughout West
Texas who serve in school libraries, public libraries, universities
and special libraries. It is the
largest association of its kind in
Texas.

According to Socorro Independent School District Librarian Shirlie Bowie, the award
represents the "acknowledgement that each library has
an obligation to support intellectual freedom."
The freedom of access to information is important to ensure the
continuation of the democratic
process for this and succeeding
generations, according to the
American Library Association.
At the ceremony, the Marfa library will be represented by Librarian lister Sanchez and its
trustees by Chairman Mary
Davis.
Assistant Marfa Librarian is
Natalia W'lli.ims and the other
trustees i"c Rena Ann Kelly,
Charlie Henderson, Frances
Razo, Rirhara Saunders, Ralph
May and Ray Hegy.
The award will be presented by
Texas Library Association President Dr. Dale Cluff, who also is
the Texas Tech University Library librarian.
The Marfa library has more
than 29,000 library materials including books, magazines, microforms and videos. More and
30,000 books were circulated
from the library last year with
more than 20,000 visits.
This ratio of visits to county
population is one of the highest
in the state, according to Mary
Kaye Hooker, coordinator of the
Texas Trans-Pecos Library System.

NAFTA Yes:
Good for Texas—Good for America
by WBlard A. Workman
. Texas companies last year exported $18 A billion of goods to Mexico,
191.4 percent more than in 1987 when Mexico started making it easier for
U.5. products to enter. Those exports to Mexico provide some 339,100
jobs for Texas citizens. Texas will have an opportunity to further increase
those exports, expand profits and create even more jobs — if Congress
implements die North American Free Trade Agreement.
Plenty of doomsayers have been predicting economic catastrophe if
NAFTA is adopted. But the bottom line is that NAFTA will eliminate
most of the barriers that have hampered Texas businesses in trying to sell
their goods to Mexico. This will be particularly beneficial to small and
.medium-sized businesses in Texas, many of which do not have the
resources to hire the army of trade experts and lawyers to tackle the red
tape and manage the risks of exporting. And despite the rhetoric, NAFTA
will not lead to an exodus of U.S. jobs.
. Only the United -States and Canada will gain the advantage of this
reduction in trade barriers. Japan, European countries and the rest of the
world still will face them. Imagine, for example, what that will do for
U.S. companies competing in Mexico against Japanese companies. But if
Congress fails to implement NAFTA, Mexico will look elsewhere for
trading partners — perhaps to Japan, leaving U.S. companies on the outside looking in.
' The United States and Canada now enjoy the benefits of their own
free-trade agreement. Sales by U.S. companies that export to Canada arc

Mexico already is a major market for U.S. producers. In fact, more

With Halloween behind us, I thought it appropriate to share with
you one of the most frightening nightmares I've ever experienced.
Last night I dreamt I was in a beautiful garden, basking in the
warm sun by a gurgling creek. I found myself becoming tired, so
I lay down in the cool grass along the bank and enjoyed the silent

driving out there and getting a small container ot soil where the

My friend said he began getting a little impatient with the
silliness of.the conversation, and was about to hang up when the

Shorthorns lose shot at District
5-2A title against Van Horn
MARFA - The first big winter
storm of the season blew into
Marfa Friday night and took with
k a Shorthorn shot at the District
3-2A title.
The Van Horn Eagtes downed
the Horns 20-7 to take the 1993
district crown, forcing Marfa to
settle for district runner-up for
the third straight year.
The Horns played great defensively, but the breaks went Van
Horn's way and the Eagles
pulled out their two touchdownmargin win on a few lucky plays.
Despite the loss, the Horns advance to the first round of the
state playoffs in the bi-district
championship.
Marfa ends regular season play
with an overall record of four
wins and five losses and a district
record of two wins and a loss.
Van Horn, which defeated
Marfa last year to take the '92
district title, went 5-4 this season
and 3-0 in district.
Other District S-2A teams that
finished out of the running are
Presidio at 1-2 in district play and
Anthony at 0-3 in district.
The Horns will have their work
cut our for them next week when
they face the Wall Hawks for the
bi-district title.
Wall, this year's District 6-2A
champ, are ranked fourth in the
state among Class 2A teams and
sports spotless 8-0 season and
5-0 district records.
The time, date and place of the
Marfa-Wall match-up will be announced next week.
Wall defeated Marfa 57-12 last
year in the bi-district tilt."
A bone-chilling wind whipped
through Martin Field Friday as
the Horns hosted Van Horn for
the district title.
Van Horn got on me scoreboard
first with under five minutes left
in the first quarter on a 35-yard
TD run. The PAT was good and
the Eagles led 7-0.
Both teams battled defensively
through the rest of the first quarter and the second quarter and
neither team scored again as the
first half of the game, ended. ,
The Horns threatened late in the
second quarter on a razzle-dazzle
play that almost worked, Richard
Gonzales shot down the sideline
in Van Horn territory free of
defenders as Justin Bledsoe
tossed the bail but gonzales
couldn't hold on to it and the half
ended with Van Horn leading by
a slim 7-0.
The Horns tied things up midway in the third quarter on a solid
offensive drive by Marfa, ending
with a one-yard TD plunge by
Mark Martinez. The PAT kick
by Orlando Alvarez was good
and the game was all tied up 7-7.
But with seven seconds left in
the third quarter, Van Horn got
on the board again on a nine-yard
TD run. The PAT failed and it
was 13-7 Van Horn.
The Eagles would score again
early in the fourth' quarter on a
street-smart play that for once
confused the solid Horn defense.
Deep in Marfa territory, the
Eagle offense lined up, splitting
receivers on each side of the line,
making it look like a pass play.
Instead, the Van Horn runner
went up the middle and headed
for the goal line.
Shorthorn defensive lineman
Shelton Holzheuser, ail 18S
pounds of him, shot down the
field and caught the Eagle runner
on the four yard line.
Unfortunately for the Horns,
Van Horn would finally squeeze
the ball into the end zone, add the
PAT to win the game 20-7.
The teams were evenly matched
in the stats department: 13 first
downs for Marfa, 18 for VH; 72
yards passing on seven completions of 18 attempts and two interceptions for Marfa, and 66 for
the Eagles on six of 12 attempts
and two interceptions; Marfa
punted six times, Van Horn
eight. Van Horn led in rushing
gaining 289 yards.on 46 carries
to Marfa's 121 yards on 47 carries. Marfa fumbled four times
but didn't lose the ball, while
Van Horn fumbled four times
and lost two balls.

conversion by Joe Cordova.
Marfa TD No. 2 was a 15-yard
pass to Joseph Orozco with two
points tacked on by Miguel Barraza, and Marfa led 16-0 as the
first-quarter clock ran out.
Early in the second quarter,
Brito intercepted another Indian
pass and ran it 60 yards to paydirt

Alpine Community partnership
receives grant to train parents
ALPINE - Alpine Community
Partnership (ACP) for Healthy
Texans began with a 1992 survey conducted by the Texas Department of Health to address
area health (in the broadest
sense of the word) problems.
The results of this poll indicated that most community
members identified substance
abuse as a major problem in the
Big Bend area.
As a result of the survey, local
members of school, civic, and
state government agencies were
invited to meet in order to find
a way to deal with this abuse.
This meeting resulted in the following evaluation: substance
abuse prevention should begin,
in the home; utilizing the resource of parent educators
would be the most effective
way to:
(a) create change in our community.
(b) develop confidence and
credibility in the program
(c) learn how,to mobilize par-
ents instead of blame them
(d) teach parents skills in raising responsible children
(e) enable parents to take a
firm, no-use stand on alcohol/other drug use.
ACP needed to find financial
resources to meet these goals.
A grant was submitted to the
Texas Department of Health
outlining the above mentioned
evaluation. ACP was awarded a
mini-grant of $5,000 (one of six
given in the.state) to be utilized
in training parent educators.
Johnson Institute of Minneapolis, Minnesota (<in outstanding developer of parenting
curriculums/substance
abuse
prevention) was selected to do
the training on January 14-15,
1994.

Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid star in the movie Flesh and Bone, which was partially filmed in Marfa last December,
TV & film production in Texas
Flesh and Bone
Movie review by ROLLING STONE magazine
. (Flesh and Bone was partially filmed in Marfa last December
and opens nationwide Friday.)
Demons are prowling in this mesmerizing mood piece from
writer-director Steve Kloves (The Fabulous Baker Boys).
The opening is unnerving - a match for the icy terror of In Cold
Blood.
We're outside a farmhouse in West Texas about 30 years ago.
Cinematographer Philippe Rousselot makes you feel the night
chill. There's a boy lingering in the yard. The family takes him
in. It's a setup. The boy's father, Roy (James Caan), means to rob
the place while the family sleeps. But the boy gets his signals
crossed. Shots ring out. Each family member dies, except one.
The boy, Arlis, didn't tell his daddy about the baby girl, From
now on, Arlis doesn't tell his daddy about anything.
•
Cut to the present. Arlis, now an adult and played by Dennis
Quaid, is still shaking off childhood memories. His job is stocking
vending machines with candy and condoms. He likes the comfort
of the routine and the willing waitresses. It's a new kind of role
for Quaid; the killer smile is gone along with the easycharm. The
change becomes him; he gives an artfully-controlled^erformance
that reveals the toll life has taken on Arlis. He can't forget what
Roy did to him. Neither can we.
It takes Kay Davies. played by Meg Ryan (Quaid's offscreen
wife), to shake up Arlis' contained existence. One night at a
cowboy bar, she pops out of a cake and into his bed. Ryan invests
the role with a disarming blend of sexuality and innocence. Arlis*
vrotective instincts are aroused by Kay's tales of an orphaned
childhood and an abusive husband. He's that kind of sucker.
When a young girl (Gwyneth Paltrow) knocks on his door
complaining about trouble, Arlis gets out of bed to listen. Her
name is Ginnie; she's a teen hard case who likes conning her way
into funeral parlors and stealing jewelry from stiffs. But Arlis
doesn't know this, so she puts on her lost-lamb look and says her
car broke down. Arlis follows her, only to run into his worst
nightmare: Daddy.
What happens when these four hook up to share dark secrets
should not be revealed in a review, though you can see the
melodrama coming. But even when Kloves' contrivances put a
strain on the plot, the interior landscape of the characters continue
FORT STOCKTON
LIVING HISTORY DAY.
to fascinate.
Paltrow, the daughter of actress Blythe Danner and producer
Bruce Paltrow, nearly steals the picture with a funny-scary
portrait of corrupted youth; she's a knockout.
And Caan's riveting take on grinning evil illuminates Arlis'
struggle to conquer the dark impulses he shares with his father.
Kloves sometimes lets the film bog down in the Freudian muck.
But stick with the seductively twisted Flesh and Bone. It slaps you
like a raw wind.

importance of uniting together
in prayer to grow in greater
love of God and with one another. The sign of peace was
shared with each other, and
then refreshments were served
in some homes.
It was a beautiful experience.
May God bless us all andjnake
us become one body with Him.

National Hospice Month
[''i
M A H F A ^ - Shorter days and
cooler temperatures signify the
on$et of winter. But as physician^ and. hospitals are well
aware,, this time of year'also
brings a'greater need for blood.
"The heed for blood increases
during the: fall months," said
Don Jacobs, associate executive
director of Linked Blood Services, this area's nonprofit community blood provider. "That's
because many farmers, ranchers
and other people who are unable to take time off during
summer often choose the fall
and winter months for elective
surgeries and hospital stays."
Marfa's next drive will be
held from 2-7 p.m., Monday,
November 15 at the MAC
Building.
By giving blood, a donor
helps replenish a community resource used by a neighbor, relative or friend. The donation
gives tomorrow's patient the
same recovery opportunity as
today's patient, because it assures that blood is on the hospital shelf when it's needed.
Only when a significant number of people donate on a regular basis can a community
maintain adequate blood supplies. If everyone waited for an
emergency before donating,
lives could be jeopardized.
Waiting to donate in an emergency only creates emergencies.. Blood must be available at
all times in sufficient amounts
to meet the needs of this area.
What is Hospice?
A special kind of care fordying
people and their families that:
treats the physical needs of the
patient and his or her emotional
and spiritual needs, takes place,
in the patient's home, or in a
home-like setting, concentrates
on making patients as free of pain
and comfortable as possible so
they can make the most of the
time that remains to them, considers helping family members
an essential part of its mission,
believes the quality of life to be
as important as the length of life.

Linda Basham, manager for
Southwestern Bell Telephone
i. . . l i . r i i K v . - l i t !!'•!• i ' A H i i i - r j .
Company.
"Custom Calling features are
designed to help customers save
valuable time and enhance the
phone service they already
have," Ms. Basham said. "The
features include Call Waiting,
Speed Calling, Call Forwarding
and Three-Way Calling.
"Call Waiting signals a customer on a call that a second
call is incoming. It allows the
customer to take the second call
without hanging out. The second caller hears a normal ringing instead of a busy signal.
"Speed Calling lets customers
dial up to 30 frequently called
local and long distance numbers
with only one or two digits.
"With Call Forwarding, customers don't have to worry
about missing important calls.
They can program their phone
to ring any number they
choose, including one out-oftown.
"Mini conference calls can be
held with Three-Way Calling.
Customers can use this service
to talk to people at two separate
numbers simultaneously."
Ms. Basham also said that
digital switching gives a community the capability to use a
number of advanced data telecommunications services that
can improve business efficiency
and attract new business to a
community. Those services include
Southwestern
Bell's
Plexar office communications
system and Digital Link data
transmission services for high
capacity computer equipment.
The Marathon central office
will be upgraded to digital on
November 20, 1993, with Custom Calling Services available
December 6.

WTU participates in textile trade show
Under the marketing name
"West Texas Natural Fiber
Team," West Texas fiber industry members and allies participated in the nation's largest
textile and apparel trade show
in Atlanta, Georgia .to promote
natural fibers and to recruit new
business related to the industry.
For the third year in a row,
West Texas Utilities Company
sponsored a booth and led a
team of regional allies at the
Bobbin Blenheim Show in Atlanta. This year's show was
highlighted by a cooperative effort from various Big Country
producers, manufacturers and
state allies. The idea for the design of the booth came from
WTU's staff and Hist & Fritz
(an Abilene graphic design
company) and featured a lifesize photo depicting workers at
Hamilton Industries(a garment
manufacturer in Abilene). Samples and literature for organic
and naturally-colored cotton,
mohair, wool, and cashmere
produced in West Texas were
available at the tooths....The success of the show
should be good news for area
wool and mohair producers in
light of the recent attempts by
Congress to do away with the
federal subsidy program. "We
knew there was a high demand
for our natural fibers, but the
level of interest shown at the
show exceeded our expectations
- particularly for mohair and organic cotton," said Steve Teaff,
Agri-Business
Specialist at
WTU. The Bobbin show was
attended by over 750 exhibitors
and 25,000 attendees. Teaff
says he plans to keep the new
marketing name for the group
because it reflects a clear message.
WTU's economic development staffers were supported in
the booth by Preccia Miller,
representative for OP Sonora
Mohair, representatives from
the Texas Department of Agriculture's (TDA) "Naturally
Texas" program, and the Texas
Department of Commerce's
(TDOC) Industrial Recruitment
department. Also attending was
Doug Parker, representing a
group from Munday, Texas,
which is formulating a business
plan for a textile spinning mill.
He was there looking for potential customers, and new manufacturing ideas.
"We're trying to get participation from representatives at all
~leveTs~of the textile industry in
West Texas," saM-Etlc Geisler,
Economic Development Specialist at WTU. "The idea is to
promote our area fiber producers and, at the same time, use
them to attract the industries
that add value to die raw materials they produce. It helps
when you can tell a potential industry that Texas is the leader
in natural fibers, that we have
