Record falls were recorded
in home heating oil and. unex-

Natural gas prices had been
rising sharply, soaring nearly
21 percent in all of last year, a
surge that has been largely
attributed to congressional

Elspeth De Pould and Agnes Roberts
were legal heirs.
The appeals court's decision, writ-
ten by Associate Justice James F
Warren, found groundless the distant
cousins' argument that they were un-
fairly denied a chance to learn blood
types of the first cousins in an effort to
establish their kinship to Rupert
Hughes.
Warren noted the blood types of
Elspeth Hughes Lapp, the first
cousins' mother, and of Rupert
Hughes are not known, and they are
dead.
He also found without merit the
argument that Rupert Hughes did not
consider Elspeth his child because she
is not included in brief biographies in

tieth Century Authors."
The appellants would have us infer
evidence from omissions of facts not
recited." Warren wrote He said the
biographies are not admissible as
evidence of illegitimacy.

residents kicked out windows
in their rooms to clear out the
smoke.
He and another occupant
said that they tried to trigger
the hotel's fire alarm without
success.
"I learned that you die of
the smoke, and not the fire,”
Daniels said.
Mike Adams of Houston
said he discovered a couch on
fire in the hotel lobby about
3:50a.m. He said that he went
back to his room and tried to
dial out to authorities, then
endeavored to sound the
hotel's alarm without suc-
cess.
Adams said that when he
returned to the lobby, it was
involved in flames. He said
that no one was in the lobby,
however.
“You wonder how it (the

he said.
He said that many people

first-degree murder in the death of
Robert Eugene Hall, 28. of Sayre.
Garrett alleges Anderson killed Hall

But Wheeler County, Texas.
District Attorney Guy Hardin con-
tends Anderson killed Hall in Texas. A
Texas grand jury has indicted Ander-
son and he is scheduled to stand trial
thereon March29
Halls body was found in a grave 16
miles northeast of Shamrock. His
neck was broken and he had been shot
four times in the back of the head.
Anderson was returned to
Shamrock from Lake Charles, I a He
surrendered there a day after Hall s
body was found. Police theorized

for minority coalition
ATLANTA (AP)- The time is right
for a well-organized coalition of black
and Hispanic voters, and such an ef-
fort could sway the 1984 presidential
election, says the head of a national
Hispanic organization.
Hispanic leaders are concerned
about the upcoming election because
Ronald Reagan received about 40 per-
cent of the Hispanic vote in 1980, but
he has not named any Hispanics to top
government positions, said Tony
Bonilla, a lawyer from Corpus Christi.
Texas. Bonilla is national president of
the League of United Latin American
Citizens.
About 44 league delegates are in
Atlanta for four days of spring ex-
ecutive board meetings. The group
plans to discuss such issues as
employment, immigration iegisla-
tion. voting rights and civil rights.
headed by Agriculture Secretary John
R. Bloc k will head overseas next week
to promote U.S agricultural products
in five countries.
The group will leave March 22 and
return April 2. The itinerary includes
Great Britain, Tunisia, Egypt, Turkey
and Saudi Arabia, the Agriculture
Department said Thursday
Block will be accompanied by other
U.S. government officials and
representatives of three private com-
modity organizations — U.S. Feed
Grains Council, American Soybean
Association and U.S. Wheat
Associates.
On March 23, Block will speak to a
world grain outlook conference in
London sponsored by the Financial
Times of London and the Interna-
tional Wheat Council.
The five countries bought more than
$2.5 billion worth of U.S. agricultural
products last year, according to
USDA export records.

tual regular sell-
ing price of the

tempt has been
made to inflate
