VIKKI CARR BANQUET - 1990- Television star and singer Vikki Carr, right, chatted with El Paso Mayor Suzie Azar before the Minority Business Council's third annual banquet Friday evening at the Westin Hotel. Carr, the keynote speaker, urged Hispanics to unite, and decried what she called a syndrome in which successful Hispanics are pulled back by other Hispanics instead of encouraged. She also appealed for help in getting educations for Hispanic children. The entertainer, who wasn't scheduled to sing, surprised the crowd of about 600 by returning after her speech and singing a song a capella in Spanish.
