'N Gain, so the company made it official with a ribbon-cutting ceremony conducted by
the Hereford Hustlers Saturday morning. Richard Selmon. store manager, cuts die ribbon
while Furr’s division manager Gary Blyton looks on. The Hustler group serves as a

The slaying occurred early Mon-
day.
Randy Michael Robichaux, 37, of
Baton Rouge, was fatally shot after
turning out his pockets to show a
holdup man he didn’t have any
money, a companion told police. No
arrests have been made.
Authorities said Robichaux was an
employee at Louisiana State Univer-
sity who came to New Orleans to see
Sunday night's Bacchus parade.
"As far as I’m concerned, he was
LSU’s Mr. Mardi Gras. I just told so-
meone the other day purple, green
and yellow run through his blood,”-
said Renee J. Nesbitt, director of
residential housing at LSU, where
Robichaux supervised four dor-
mitories.
She said he had designed the floats
for the campus Krewe of the Tiger
carnival parade for seven years, and
rode in the group’s eighth annual
parade Thursday.
The slaying was not the only pro-
blems connected with Carnival.
Two float riders were injured when
they were hit by objects thrown at
them, police spokeswoman Yvonne
Bechet said. Both were released
after treatment at New Orleans
hospitals.

MARRIAGES

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - French
Quarter bars were standing-room-
only early today as die-hard drinkers
driven indoors by frigid weather got
an early start on the nation's
bawdiest and most raucous holiday,
Mardi Gras.
Eleven parades were scheduled in
the New Orleans area, and up to 1.6
million people were expected for the
celebration of excess that ends Car-
nival's month of balls and two weeks
of parades.
The festivities have been marred
by the slaying of a tourist known as
"Mr. Mardi Gras” to his friends.
Mardi Gras ends midnight, when
Ash Wednesday ushers in six weeks
of Lenten repentance to this
predominantly Roman Catholic city.
"Last year we had about a million
people on the streets during the
day,” said Ray Holman, chief of
police field operations.
"I think that if the weather doesn't
get totally unbearable we’ll get at
least that number again, maybe
more.”
He said crowds were bigger than
usual despite wet, cold weather dur-
ing the popular weekend Endymion
and Bacchus parades. Bad weather,
however, canceled Fat Tuesday
parades in the little Acadian com-
munities of Grand Marais and
Loreauville.

Feb. 6,1*19
The National Weather Service
forecast a 50 percent chance of rain
or drizzle, with highs in the upper 40s
but winds near 15 mph making it feel
as if it were near 30.
That kind of weather can be good
for business, bartenders said.
"People want to come in out of the
cold,” said Bill Hadley, manager of
Lulu White's Mahogany Hall bar.
But Ivan Cook of Phoenix said only
a downpour could keep him under a
roof on Mardi Gras.
“When you're out on the street you
don’t feel it,” said Cook, who was
among the thousands of tourists jam-
ming the city.
Hotels decked in the carnival col-
ors of purple, green and gold were
packed to virtual capacity.
There were two parades Monday,
and a Mississippi riverfront shopp-
ing development held its third annual
“Lundi Gras" celebration with
bands, fireworks, a riverboat parade
and the ceremonial arrival by boat of
a man dressed as Rex, King of Car-
nival.
The identity of the real Rex — a
different member of New Orleans
society each year — is kept secret
until the final hours before he rides in
the biggest parade of the season and
meets the mayor for a champagne
toast before downtown crowds.
This year the honor went to
State legislators find
'House' a bit too chilly
AUSTIN (AP) - The Texas House
and Senate will try again today.
The Senate convened Monday —
but not long enough to even turn on
the lights.
Across the Capitol Rotunda, the
House lights were on, but that
chamber too could not muster
enough legislators to conduct
business.
Both the House and Senate ses-
sions Monday, which were held on an
icy day when much of state govern-
ment was closed, lasted about one
minute.
State leaders will try to muster
their members again; the House at
10 a.m. and the Senate, 11 a.m.
"If we have a quorum present we
will conduct business. If we don’t,
we’ll adjourn to the following day,”
said House Speaker Gib Lewis.
Only Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby and two
senators, Bill Sims, D-San Angelo,
and Bill Ratliff, R-Mt. Pleasant, at-
tended the Senate session.
The session lasted just long enough
to adjourn, and the chamber's lights
were left off.
With Austin still in the grip of the
winter storm that has blanketed
much of Texas. Hobby took the
Senate podium dressed for the occa-
sion.
He wore a turtleneck and heavy
boots, plus a blue blazer and striped
tie over the turtleneck. It wasn’t a
fashion statement, he said, only what
was required by Senate rules.
“It (the turtleneck) just seemed to
be the thing to do this morning. And
Senate rules require a coat and tie,"
he said.
Speaker Lewis, however, wearing
a suit and tie, was ready for work.
There were 66 members recorded as
attending Monday’s session, 10 short
of the necessary 76 in the
150-member House to conduct
business.
“I do appreciate all you brave
souls,” Lewis told those in atten-
dance.
Lewis said he had received
numerous telephone calls from
legislators around the state, saying
they could not return to Austin
because of icy conditions.
