WASHINGTON (AP) - The second and final visit to the Titanic by
a team of undersea explorers has shed new light on what doomed the
grand liner as well as the macabre, deep-sea ravagers who dined at
its grave.
Researcher Robert Ballard, who discovered the Titanic in the
North Atlantic last Sept 1, said its collision with anTceberg in April
of 1912 did not create a huge gash in the hull — as many, including
himself, had long supposed. Instead, he said, the 12-inch-thick plates
on the hull simply popped their rivets and buckled enough to spring a
fatal leak.
Ballard said the comprehensive photographic exploration of the
wreck in 12 dives earlier this month showed “absolutely no
evidence" of a gash, estimated in some historical accounts as 300
feet long.
His team, from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in
Woods Hole, Mass., took more than 57,000 still photos and 50 hours of
videotapes. One series of pictures will result in a complete mosaic of
the shipwreck, a project scheduled for completion within six weeks.

WASHINGTON (AP) - For more
than 24 million couples and in-
dividuals — about one of every four
who file returns - “tax reform” will
mean a tax increase next year.
That’s the latest estimate of the
Joint Committee on Taxation, whose
figures also show 70 million-plus tax-
payers can expect to keep more
money as a result of the tax-overhaul
plan making its way through Con-
gress. About 10 million would see no
change.
The committee staff estimates that
efforts to protect middle-income
families from a temporary tax in-
crease in 1987 would penalize more
than 2 million taxpayers with in-
comes under $30,000a year.
The new figures are based on an
analysis of the sweeping tax-
overhaul plan passed by the Senate.
Congressional negotiators are using
the Senate bill as a model as they try
to write a compromise between it
and the version passed by the House.
Either bill would repeal or reduce
several deductions and slash tax
rates significantly. But the rate cuts
would come six months after the
deductions were taken away. So, tax-
payers would lose their deductions
for all of 1987 but would pay current
tax rates for half the year and the
new, lower rates for the last six mon-
ths.
That would mean a temporary tax
increase even for those who, under
the bill, would get a tax cut starting
in 1988
Most of the impact of delaying the
rate cut to July 1 would fall on
couples and individuals with incomes
between $30,000 and $50,000 - tax-
payers who vote in large numbers
and, therefore, are a special concern
of members of Congress.
A solution being considered by
negotiators would advance the rate
cut to Jan. 1. That would reduce from

WASHINGTON (AP) - Supreme Court Justice William H. Rehn-
quist, unapologetic about his staunch conservatism and denying any
wrongdoing as a political operative two decades ago, says he can be
an effective symbol of justice for all.
Rehnquist, who sat through more than five hours of Senate
Judicary Committee questioning Wednesday, was scheduled to con-
tinue testifying today.
More than 60 other witnesses were scheduled to testify, and Com-
mittee Chairman Strom Thurmond, R-S.C., said he was prepared to
preside over a marathon session today so the hearings that began
Tuesday could be concluded by midday Friday.
In his Wednesday appearance, Rehnquist had to weather intensive
questioning from Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., over allega-
tions he harassed and intimidated black and Hispanic voters in
Phoenix, Ariz., in the early 1960s as part of a state Republican Party
ballot-security program.
Rehnquist said he does not remember whether he ever challenged
anyone's right to vote, a routine and proper endeavor by poll wat-
chers, but said he never tried to block lawful voters from casting
ballots.
“If you’re talking about harassment or intimidation, I categorical-
ly deny that,” Rehnquist told Kennedy.
Ten witnesses who Democrats say are ready to testify they saw
Rehnquist try to intimidate minority voters are scheduled to appear
before the committee Friday.
MONAHANS, Texas (AP) - A newly ordained Lutheran minister
who told police his wife committed suicide less than two weeks after
the family moved to Texas has been charged with first-degree
murder in the case, authorities said.
Rev. Joseph Loduca Jr., 31, was denied bond after his arraignment
Wednesday before Ward County Peace Justice L.A. Wester.
Loduca was accused of murder in the asphyxiation death of his
wife, Mary Loduca, 32, whose body was found in her bedroom in the
West Texas town of Monahans on July 12.
The Loducas and their three children had moved to Monahans on
July 1 from St. Louis, where he had been ordained as a minister in
May after attending Concordia Seminary. Loduca had been installed
as pastor of the St Paul Lutheran Church of Monahans.
Mrs. Loduca’s body was found with a plastic trash bag pulled
tightly over her head, authorities said. No suicide note was found
Monahans Police Chief David Mills said he arrested Loduca Tues-
day night on a warrant issued by Peace Justice Sue Mullins. Mills
said the arrest followed a 2M-week investigation prompted by what
he called inconsistencies and discrepancies in a statement by
Loduca.

A 40-year-old man has died of
heatstroke in Dallas as record high
temperatures continued across
much of Texas.
The Dallas County Medical Ex-
aminer’s office said the man, who
was not identified pending notifica-
tion of relatives, was found unconn-
scious earlier this week beside a road
in northwest Dallas.
A spokesman for the Medical Ex-
aminer’s Office said alcohol intox-
ication was listed as a secondary
cause of the man’s death.
The man died Tuesday, but
authorities did not determine the
cause of death until Wednesday,
authorities said.
At least 30 Texas cities recorded
highs above the 100-degree mark
Wednesday, pushing the use of elec-
tricity and water to higher levels,
too.
Forecasters had little hope for sun-
scorched Texans as they say it will
be at least Sunday or Monday before
a cool front reaches the state with
enough power to drop temperatures
by even a few degrees.
Wichita Falls, at 110 degrees
Wednesday, tied a record set in 1960
for the same date and registered the
state’s high.
Houston’s 101 degrees broke that
city’s record of 99 degrees in 1980, as
did Dallas-Fort Worth with its
106-degree reading and its sixth day
in a row over 100 degrees.
Beaumont was not as hot — 99
degrees — but that was enough to
break a high mark set more than 20
years ago in 1962.
Waco, Presidio and Laredo record-
ed 107 degrees.
Marfa, with a chilly 56 degrees
Wednesday morning, topped out at
99, according to the National
Weather Service.
No rain had been reported around
the state, and only a few paltry
showers fell tauntingly off the lower
coast.
Even nightfall failed to bring
relief. Temperatures remained in
the 90s Wednesday night.
A stubborn high pressure center
hovering above the area is responsi-
ble for the heat wave, the weather
service said.
As air conditioners hummed,
Texas Utilities in Dallas set a new
all-time peak demand at 5 p.m.
Wednesday of 16,537,000 kilowatts or
about 4 percent higher than last
year’s peak, said spokesman Dick
Ramsey.
“We’ve still got something a little
bit less than 15 percent reserve
capacity, so we’re still in reasonably
good shape to take care of the
needs,” he said.
“Looking back at the summer of
1980, we had 60 some consecutive
days of 100-degree temperatures. We
kept up with that.”
There were 69 consecutive days of
100 and above temperatures that
summer in Dallas and much of the
rest of the state.
Dallas Water Utilities officials
reported record water consumption
on Tuesday, and expected the trend
to last through the weekend.
Residents used 562 million gallons —
up from the 560 million gallons of
Aug. 22 last year.
In Wichita Falls, homeowners
were put on lawn-watering schedules
to conserve in the face of peak de-
mand.

LONDON (AP) - Fulfilling a pledge he made while a hostage in
Lebanon, the Rev. Lawrence Martin Jenco meets today with the ar-
chbishop of Canterbury to deliver a confidential message from his
captors.
Jenco, a Roman Catholic priest, said after delivering the same
message to Pope John Paul II at the Vatican on Wednesday that “the
religious factor" helped secure his release after nearly 19 months in
captivity.
He did not disclose the contents of the message, telling reporters at
the Vatican that he was concerned for other Americans who are still
captive.
"I have fear that what I may say might be detrimental to my
brothers who are still held hostage in Lebanon,” the 5lyear-old
priest said. “My silence is a shout of care and concern for those who
are stiu held "
Jenco was to meet with the archbishop of Canterbury, the Rev.
Robert Runcie, at ILambeth Palace, the official London residence of
the spiritual bead of the Church of England.
After arriving from Rome at the Royal Air Force base at Northolt
outside London Wednesday night, Jenco was taken to an undisclosed
location arranged by the Servite Brothers, the religious order to
which he belongs.
Jenco, a native of Joliet, Bl., was accompanied by Torry Waite,

“They were not in the caskets.
They were in between and on top of
them and covered with blankets,”
McClatchie said. "It was probably
one of the more unusual cases we’ve
encountered.”
The casket truck, which sits at the
Border Patrol’s impound lot on a
Navy base in this southern San Diego
County city, will be destroyed unless
a federal agency claims it, officials
said.
Almost any vehicle can used for
smuggling. Secret compartments
built into cars and trucks hold from
one to a dozen people.
On a tour of the lot, McClatchie
pointed out some vehicles so cleverly
altered that even a trained eye would
have trouble locating the compart-
ment
"These things we destroy or turn
over to a government agency,” he
said. “We would be condoning alien
smuggling by turning them back to
the general public."
Twenty such vehicles have been
destroyed this year, said Louis
Valderrama of the Border Patrol.

it wants to keep the car or truck for

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - A federal grand jury in Dallas is in-
vestigating allegations that District Judge Tom Cave has traded
favorable rulings to women probationers in exchange for sex, the
Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported today.
Cave, 54 a judge in Tarrant County since 1975, strongly denied the
allegations in a written statement given to the newspaper Wednes
day
Cave presided at the first trial of Fort Worth millionaire Cullen
Davis, who was accused in the slayings at his Fort Worth mansion.
That trial ended in a mistrial. Davis was later found innocent at a
trial in Amarillo.
The judge did acknowledge that he is dating and soon plans to
marry a 33-year-old former prostitute who has previously appeared
in his court on a felony drug charge.
Cave denied that he has done anything illegal or improper and
blamed the investigation on criminals in Tarrant County who "ap-
parently influenced" Police Chief thomas Windham and Captain
Jery Blaisdell of the Fort Worth Police Department to begin an in-
vestigation.
