Mother understands violence
EDINBURG, Texas lAP) — The mother of a man charged with
shooting an 11-y ear-old boy he believed to be involved in a string of
buglanes said she understands what drove her son to violence
Martha Francis Ballard, who lives at the l^keview Trailer Park
owned by her son. Everett Bowen Ballard Jr., said he had grown
frustrated with failed efforts by local police to solve a slew of recent
burglaries at the trailer court.
"They came out here every time we had one, but nothing was solv-
ed and they were getting worse," Mrs Ballard said Thursday
Ballard. 48. was released on a $50,000 bond Thursday afternoon
after being charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon
The victim, Juan Antonio Sauceda of Weslaco, remained in stable
condition in the intensive care unit of Knapp Memonal Hospital suf-
fering from buckshot wounds to his abdomen and arm suffered in the
shooting Wednesday night
Mrs. Ballard said most of the park's 175 lots are rented by elderly
visitors who spend winter months in South Texas.

Four plead guilty to smuggling
EL PASO, Texas (AP) — Four Mexican nationals and a U.S.
citizen have pleaded guilty to charges of smuggling illegal aliens in-
to this country in what U.S. Border Patrol agents said was a "large-
scale smuggling ring.”
Three of the men pleaded guilty Thursday, the day trial was to
begin for them. The fourth man entered his plea on Wednesday.
Border Patrol agents apprehended the four in early August, say-
ing the arrests broke up a "large-scale smuggling ring that has been
operating for a long time with the same people.”
Operating on a tip from a source they declined to name, the agents
nabbed the four about 3 a.m. on Aug. 7 after they and 66 illegal aliens
crossed the border near El Paso, said Bill Harrington, assistant
chief patrol agent for El Paso.
Harrington said the illegal aliens, ail from the interior of Mexico,
told agents they had paid 10,000 pesos — about $50 — to be brought in-
to the United States.
They also said they were being taken to the Atlantic Coast to work
harvesting fields and “had to pay $500 more once they arrived,"
Harrington said at the time of the arrests.
Old age too late to live right
BOSTON < APi - Eating and sleeping properly may help younger
pe<iple live lunger, but by the time someone reaches 65. it's too late to
live right, a study concludes
The research contradicts a widely held view that old people can in-
crease their chance of living longer if they stick to good habits
"Once you've survived to 65. healthful practices, at least in our
data, did not suggest a longer lifespan," said Dt laiurence G
Branch of Harvard Medical School Results of his study of 1,235
Massachusetts residents appear in the October edition of the
American Journal of Public Health
Earlier studies showed that healthy living habits are associated
with increased life expectancy for young and middle aged people
Experts assumed the same would be true for people in their 60s and
70s
Instead, said Branch. "The excess mortality associated with
unhealthful practices takes its toll during the young and middle-age
period" and not when people are older
However, a preliminary, still-unpublished analysis of the results
shows that at least some of the health habits may Improve old peo-
ple's physical well-being, even if they don't make them live longer

Nader attacks Rep. Fields
HOUSTON (API — Consumer advocate Ralph Nader says Rep.
Jack Fields, R-Houston, votes for businesses and interest groups
that contribute to his campaign, not for his constituents.
But Fields, reached by telephone Thursday night at his
Washington-area home, said he believes there is "no question” the
attack was politically motivated.
“Mr. Nader is on a political mission to elect the most liberal can-
didates who can be to the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate," Fields
said.
"Apparently. Mr Fields cares more about used car dealers, doc-
tors and beer distributors — and their campaign contributions —
more than he does about the people who buy used cars, pay doctors'
bills or take a glass of beer." Nader said in a news conference
Nader said the Public Citizen Consumer Voting Index, figures
compiled by a group he founded, gave Fields a 0 percent rating on
votes important to consumers during the 1983 session of Congress.
