    Thomas vote expected despite harassment charge
WASHINGTON
(AP) Tho Son
at<? struggled Mon
day with alloca
tions that Supremo Court nomi
noo Clarence Thomas sexually
hurnssed an assistant a decade
ago. But Senate leaders indicat
ed they would move ahead
with a Tuesday evening vote' as
the White House decried an
11 tli-hour "smear" campaign
Son. J. James Exon, I)-Neb.,
one of Thomas' earliest sup
porters, withdrew his support
and joined a handful of sena
tors calling for a delay on the
Thomas vote. Opponents said
more time was needed to assess
the allegations by Anita Hill,
now a University of Oklahoma
law professor.
"If the vote were 7 o'clock to
night, I would not vote to coil
firm because I would not have
the opportunitv to make a judg
merit," Exon said.
The vote can be ...postponed'
onlv when all 100 Senators
agree to do so. "II as many sen
ators have the questions on
their minds that this senator
has right now, that (Tuesday
vote) might be a rather hasty
action," Exon said
Ho urged a Senate Judiciary

disability once thev gel on,'
McCarty said, adding that they
also enjoy feeding and groom
ing the animals.
"How often do these people
get a chance to take i are ot
something’ Someone is always
taking cure ot them," she said
All of the riders at Saturday's
hind raiser echoed McCarty’s
sentiments, saying what they
enjoy most ubout the program
is that it is a familyoriented in
tcraction with animals and the
outdoors.
Kathy Jenness, u single moth
er with three daughters ages 0
to 12, said she enjoys the fact
that she and her children ran
do an activity together, year
round.
And even if family members
do not participate in the actual
riding, they clearly find it a
worthwhile experience to
watch, knowing that their dis
ubled relative is having a good
time.
"It's good for her to do some
stuff bocause she's bored u lot,"
said ila Kriegh, 7, about her 11
year-old sister Rena. "I think
it's fun for her.”
