Modify Joomla News Module 2

I am using the "mod_jxtc_news" module to display the latest news on a Joomla 1.5 website. It currently returns some intro text from the top of the article, but the text does not wrap automatically and causes the page layout to become distored. I want either the module or HTML template that displays the text modified so the text wraps automatically or the width of the table, div or span used has a fixed width. I am willing to grant Admin and FTP access to the site
