The way I would set it up within the mapfile...

LAYER
  NAME name
  DATA data
  TYPE point
  STATUS off
  LABELITEM "OWNER"
  CLASS
    NAME "Blah"
    SYMBOL 0
    SIZE 12
    COLOR 0 0 0
    TEXT ([OWNER] [DESCRIPTION])
    LABEL
     ANTIALIAS true
     COLOR 0 0 0
     FONT "arial"
     SIZE 8
     TYPE truetype
    END
  END
END

If you want DESCRIPTION inside ()'s, you might try \'s before them so
they're taken literally. I'm not sure if that'll work or not...
