Walker Files In Texas for Governor Bid
Former Maj. Gen. Edwin A. Walker filed Friday as a Democratic candidate for Texas governor, paying a 1000 filing fee and defying Tower and Thurmond urging him to stay out of politics.

A separate note reports Phillips Petroleum's new pipeline terminal near Harrisburg, Pa with 237000 barrel storage to support Phillips 66 products across 40 states and D.C.
