STATE CAPITAL
highlights
By Lyndall Williami
TEXAS PRESS ASSOCIATION
AUSTIN-Texas voters are re-
sponding to candidates crisscross-
ing Texas with what some experts
predict may be a record primary
turnout and continued realignment
of the Texas electorate.
In other action last week related
to Texas government:
• Gov. Bill Clements agreed
with a federal decision to post-
pone choosing a site for the super-
collider until after the presidential
election;
• A trio of legislators unveiled a
compromise plan to install a merit
system for selecting Texas judges;
• State officials reconsidered
their plan to take liens against the
homesteads of medicaid recipients
after they die.
Texas Secretary of State Jack
Rains has predicted a record
turnout. He believes the Republi-
can primary for the first time in
history will draw as many voters
as the Democratic primary.
First Massive Battle
For one thing, the Super
Tuesday strategy has brought
campaigning here early; Texas
voters now know they will help
decide the first massive battle of
this campaign.
For another, a Texan is running
and stirs the hopes of Texans trou-
bled with a struggling economy.
A litmus for realignment, as
the election unfolds, is how
well Albert Gore's campaign
fares in the Democratic primary,
highlighted by the controversial
endorsement of party chairman

Bob Slagle and some 60 party
financial heavy hitters.
Old, New Mind-Sets
Heading towards Election Day,
the polls show Gore fourth in
Texas behind Michael Dukakis,
Jesse Jackson and Richard Gep-
hardt.
Unless Gore makes some kind
of fantastic finish, the exposed dif-
ferences can not be overlooked be-
tween the follow-me-bqys Demo-
cratic Party leadership and the
party's rank-and-file precinct or-
ganizers, who followed their own
mind-set and split behind Dukakis
and Gephardt.
Gore's candidacy in many ways
is a youthful appeal to the
old ways, to conservative rural
Democrats, just as Jesse Jackson
appeals to black voters, Dukakis
to urban liberals. More than the
others, how Gore and Jackson fare
at the convention will indicate the
party's future in Texas.
Realignment, Conservatives
The argument about realign-
ment begins with those rural con-
servatives, who at one time were
the heart of the Texas Democratic
Party.
Have they had enough of the
Texas Democratic Party's pell-
mell bolt towards urban liberalism
in hard times? Will they continue
to defect in droves to the Republi-
can primary?
Or do they think the Texas
Republican Party's urban conser-
vatism is so uncaring that they
will accept a diminished roll in the
Democratic Party?
For your answer, sec if rural
counties pick a winner.
Republican Action
The Republican slate, for awhile
there, had a wide range of appeal,
but in the primary endgame, most
candidates are conceding Texas to
Vice President George Bush with
his favorite son flair.
Frankly, while purists shudder
at the damage done to the Eleventh
Commandment, "Speak no ill of
fellow Republicans", the liammer-
and-tongs action has its own
appeal to those who think a good
political fight is a healthy by-
product of democracy.
Certainly, it has brought the
Republican image out from the
country club backrooms, and,
some say, made it more human.
Some say the public scrappings
are natural growing pains which
cannot be avoided by an expanding
party, one which gives candidates
a lot to gain and a lot to lose.
Other Highlights
• The state welfare agency is
rethinking its plan to file liens on
homes of some 8,000 Medicaid
recipients to recoup expenses after
their deaths. The Department of
Human Services board will act on
the new state law next month.
• Gov. Clements applauded
the "wise" decision to postpone
choosing the supercollider site,
while others predicted the next )
president will decide where to
build it. Thus, the $4.4 billion
supercollider becomes a rather
large political plum for the
state which guesses right in the
presidential sweepstakes. If it's
ever built.
• In a preview of things to
come, Rains and Democratic At-
torney General Jim Mattox de- 0
bated before the Houston-based )
Hispanic Political Action Commit-
tee. Both are eyeing the Gover-
nor's Mansion for 1990.
La Union Little
League Ready
La Union Little League is ready
to head into its second year.
The league, an offspring of La
Grulla-La Casita-Garciasville Little
League, initiated by Silvano Saenz,
is serving youngsters from La
Victoria-La Grulla to El Refugio-
Santa Cruz.
Under the leadership of Armin
Solis, the league has pressed on
forward. The All-Star team left
high expectations for this year's
team.
This year, the league has a brand
new field to play on. It is situated
at the county park in La Casita.
According to Little League orga-
nizers, this field was made possible
through the combined efforts of
community businesses, Commis-
sioner Eloy Garza, and league
official Javier Garcia.
This year's plans are for four
league teams and a Tee-Ball league
if possible. Anyone interested in
coaching or helping out is asked to
call 487-3376. The league wishes to
encourage their children to
participate in Little League
baseball.
Backaches Are
Preventable
COLLEGE STATION-Backaches
are as ordinary as the common
cold. But unlike a cold, back pain is
often preventable.
If you suffer from backaches,
you have a lot of company.
According to the American Medical
Association and insurance compa-
ny data, 8 out of 10 Americans will
experience back problems during
the course of their lifetime and
some 22 million are affected by
back discomfort during the course
of a year.
"Although the statistics are
staggering, the problem of back
pain is certainly not unbeatable,"
maintains Dr. Mary Ann Heussner,
a health educator. "Fewer than
20% of back problems are caused
by diseases of the bones and joints
of the back; the remaining 80% are
due to poor daily lifestyle habits."

offers the following suggestions for
avoiding back injury:
•Lifting. Hold the item close to
you so it doesn't pitch your spine
forward. Bend you knees so your
legs do most of the work and hold
your back straight as you lift.
•Sitting. Sit to the back of chairs
and keep your back well-supported
and your spine straight. If you sit
for long periods of time, put your^
feet on a footstool, phone book or
some other object to take the
pressure off the lower back. Try to
change position or redistribute
your weight at least every 45
minutes.
•Standing. When you must stand
for long period, put one foot on a
small stool or box to release the
stress on your spine.
•Lying down, recline on your side
with knees and hips flexed so your^
body is partially curled. Or sleep
on the back with one or two pillows
under the knees. Avoid sleeping on
your stomach or in any position
which twists the spine.
The specialist observes that a
lack of fitness also contributes to
back problems.
"One of the major causes of back
pain is a combination of poor
muscle tone, weak muscles and
lack of flexibility. Excess weigh'
also shifts the body's center of
gravity and puts an added strain on
the back, especially of the extra
pounds are carried around the
midsection," she explains.
Having a healthier back is
another good reason to become
involved in a general fitness and
weight control program.
