held a Statehouse press conference Thursday to
announce their joint House-Senate resolution.
Their n:solution calla for two IIJ..member bipartisan
joint tukforces to recommend legislation to improve
educational opportunities for Ohio students and to
improve funding school facility improvements.
"My number one concern from a legislative perspeclive is that the decision has to be ours," said Shoemaker.
"To be conaultcd at the eleventh hour as we were this

of government."
A four month effort to come up with a school funding
solution collapsed last Sunday night when the Senate
balked at a Republican House plan to increase school
spending with existing revenues rather than new taxes.
Senate Republicans had approved a slightly watereddown version of a Voinovich proposal asking voters to
approv~ a penny sales tax hike generating $1.1-billiona-year in additional revenue for schools.

Wednesday's filing deadline for placing the plan on fall
statewide .ballots. Lawmakers are tinkering with the
state's school funding system because of a March 24
Ohio Supreme Court decision that tossed out the state's
system of funding schools.
With no legislative sessions scheduled until after Labor
Day, House Speaker Jo Ann Davidson, R-ReynoldsbUIJ,
indicated earlier this week that lawmakers will take this
next month off before resuming school funding talks.
Under the non-binding .resolution proposed Thursday,
the bipartisan ci:Jmmittees would be represented by a
geographical mix of between rural, suburban and urban
lawmakers.
The panels would "take the show on the road" conducting at leaSt a dozen hearings around the state on the
issue, according to Ogg. Any amendments to the Ohio
constitution would have .to be submitted to voters.

Teamsters continue meeting with
UPS officials under the supeivision
of a Federal Mediation Board but
thus far, neither side will budge
from their current stance on the contract proposal. So far, more than
6,000 of the 185,000 striking Teamsters crossed the picket line and
returned to work.
According to a Teamsters pres.~
release, on Thursday, July 31, at
midnight, the Teamsters' current
contract expired. This ended a four
month try for negotiations among
Teamsters and UPS officials.
The proposal by UPS officials
called for ·withdrawal from the
multi-employer Teamster pension
plans to a single UPS employee pension plan, which UPS says will
increase the monthly pension bene, .
fits by 50 percent. Under the current
plan, Teamster retirees whether
employed by UPS or not, still
receive UPS money. The company I
contract also offers a wage increase
from $1.50 to $2.50 per hour over
the next five years for both part-time
and full time workers. A new healtb
care package is included.
The reason for not signing the
contract, according to Teamst~r
reports, is that the union would likF
limits on subcontracting and would
like more employees to become full

HAMILTON (AP) - The day
after a racially charged di'sturbance
rocked this southwestern Ohio city,
concerned residents tried to pick up
the pieces.
Black residents met at Payne
Chapel African Methodist Episcopal
Church a second day to voice their
outrage over what they called a case
of police brutality.
Blacks upset about the death of a
drug suspect had met Thursday night
at the church with City Manager Hal
Shepherd to discuss the man 's Aug.
l arrest.
Russell James Rodgers Jr.. 25, of
Hamilton was arrested on charges of
drug possession, tampering with evidcnce and resisting arrest. Police said
that while Rodgers was in the city ·
jail, be suffered seizures. apparently
from 1ngesting large quantities of
cocaine.
Rodgers was taken to Mercy Hospita!, where he went into a coma. He
died Thursday afternoon after his
family decided to remove his lifesupport system.
Rumors
began
circulating
throughout the city. which is about2o
miles north of Cincinnati, that
Rodgers had been beaten while in
police custody and thai officers were
somcho_w.rcsponsible for his death.
, . She,.herd
tried to quell those
"
rumors at Thursday night's meeting.
As those in altcndanec left' the
church, police were standing in formation with riot gear across the
street.
. That m.ade an already tense situation worse, said Hamilton resident
Donna Ray, who witnessed the melee
that followed. Ms. R,ay said police
overreacted with ihcir shuw of fon:c.
provoking the ensuing violence.
The three-hour disturbance that
followed included bottle- and rockthrowing at police property and passing cars. There were no arrests and no
major injuries.

Stolen car found in city-run pool
TOLEDO - Lifeguards at one of L)le city's swimming pools were
preparing for work when they noticed s6mething sitting on the bottom of
the pool - a 1989 white Cadillac.
The stolen car was found Thursday in the 11 -foot deep end of the pool.
Employees, who first made sure no one was inside the car, called police,
who said the car had been stolen overnight.
· "It was probably somebody joyriding around and (hen they decided
to dump the car," officer Troy Meyers said.
The culprit had taken the car to a field next to the pool, aimed .it at the
swimming area and placed a piece of concrete on· the car's accelerator,
police said.
The car smashed through a metal fence and then plunged into the pool.
Jeff DuGai, 19, was checking his lifeguard equipment when he saw a
large white object at the bottom of the pool.
"I had to look twice. I didn't believe it at f~rst," he said
Tow.crews spent more than an hour pulling the ear from the water. The
pool remained closed the rest of the day.

Amtrak derailment leaves over 100 injuries

KINGMAN, Ariz.- An Amtrak
train carrying about 300 passengers
derailed Saturday after Dash Oooding
apparently caused a bridge to buck'le. More than 100 were injuted but no
one was killed, authorities said.
The Southwest Chief derailed at
about 5 a.~t as the third o( four
engines crossed the bridge, leaving
cars·behind it zigzagged but upright
in a desolate desen area 13 miles
nonheasl of Kingman.
"It appears the bridge washed
out," Mohave County Sheriff Tom
Sheahan said. The low tn:stle bridge
went over a wash, nood-prone low
ground that can be dry much of the
time. Two cars went askew into the
shallow water.
" It felt like you were in car going
down the side of a mountain. Every,

N,M.
"Some people· were thrown over

Fischer said.
"It felt like it was a minute, but
I'm sure it was just seconds that the
shifting and falling and tumbling
went on," said Jonathan Bose, a 43year-old from Essex. England. "It
seemed like an eternity waiting for it
to stop."
The train had left Los Angeles Fii·day evening on the way to Chicago

Helicopters. ambulances and
school buses carried t,he passengers to
Kingman, a city of 12,000 where
most were taken to a shelter at the

Officials conducted a car-to-cat

The train had four engines and 16

Hopes to end strike dashed
when UPS, union quit talks
By KEVIN GALVIN
A11oclated Prell Writer
WI\SHINGTON - UPS and the
Teamsters union broke off talks Saturday, company CEO James P. Kelly said, quashing hope of a quick end
to the , strike that has disrupted the
natton s package delivery system for
six days.
Kelly said he is returning to
Atlanta, where United Parcel Service
is headquarten:d, to "make the tough
decisions."
Asked if that might"include hiring
temporary or replacement workers,
Kelly said that decision has not been
made but added: "We're willing to do
what it takes."
.
The talks broke off less than two
hours after they began Saturday but
after 19 hours of mediation over the
previous two days. No funher talks
were scheduled, and neither side
held out hope for a quick solution to
the strike.
"At this point, it appears it's just
useless to continue any discussions,"
Teamsters President Ron Carey said.
"It's time for us to stan digging in,

Fair last week. They were touring the "Ohio's Own • exhibit in the
Buckeye Building. With Gov. and Mrs. Volnovlch is Karin Johnson, left, Meigs tourism director.
It's time for us to start getting our
members prepared for this stiike."
The union planned rallies at baseball games and United Pan:el SerVice
centers across the country to prepare
its 185,000 striking members for the
·possibility of prolonged struggle.
Carey, on his way into Federal
Mediation and Conciliation Service
headquarter$ Saturday, said unless the
. company showed a willingness to
move off its position, the talks could
be the I!ISt for a while.
The company has stuck by its
"last, best and final"·offer, engaging
only in "infonnal discussions" abput
other proposals, not negotiating,
I!CCording to company officials.
UPS"cnief negotiator David Murray said that if the union were to
allow its members to vote on UPS'
final' offer, and they rejected i~ the
company would be more inclined to
resume negOiiating. Carey took that
as an admission of room to bargain.
"If the company is willing. to
make some movement, why not do it
now?" he asked. 1
UPS' final five-year offer includ-
ed annual 1.5 percent wage increases for full-time workers as well as a
$3,060 bonus. It also proposed withdrawing from Teamster multiemployer funds and increasing health
and pension benefits.
·
'
The union, which relies on UPS to
help fund the health and pension programs for its members regardless of
their employers, rejected out of hand
the proposal to set up a separate fund
for UPS workers.
But the union's main issue is fulltime jobs. Fifty-eight percent of UPS
employees work pan-tim.e, and there
hasn't been an increase in their base
wage of $8 an hour since 1982.

AGANA, Guam (AP) -The cockpit crew members of a doomtd Kcn:an Air jet spent their last minutes of Flight 801 much like any other: they
contacted the control tower, gQt approval for arrival and lowered the landing gear.
·
· .
'
Then thei~ jet slammed into a hillside, and erupttd in flames.
.
That was the picture taking shape Friday (rom a preliminary analysis of
the "black boxes" found in tiie wreckage of the Boeing 747 that crashtd "
Wtdnesday in Guam.
·
The crew members apparently had no idea they were headed toward .di~·
aster and sent no frantic messages to the control tower in the minutes befor:e
their fiery crash, National Transportation Safety Board investigators said.
''There was no indication the crew was reporting anything wrong with
the aircraft," said Gregory Feith, the top investigator on the NTSB team. .
' Investigators emphasized that it was still far too early to pinpoint the cause
of the crash, which killed 225 travelers going from the South Korean capi·
tal of Seoul to Guam .
Among the key points that investigators want to nail down are the effects
of the driving rain that was falli'ng on the night of the crash, the technique
the pilot used to land the plane and whether runway lights were on.
The evidence seems to point toward human error, since the pilot appeartd
to·be i.n full control•of the plane at the time of the crash, NTSB board mem·
ber George Black said.
"That's usually the situation or someone's interpretation of something,
some kind offault, because we don't intend for aircraft to run into the
ground," he said, adding that "it's too early to talk about what or who that
someone was - or something was." '
,
· ' Ftderal investigators, in Guam since Thursday, said they would have to
study more evidence and receive a full transcript of cockpit conversations
from analysts looking at the black boxes in Washington to get a better idea
of 9o'hat happened.
·
rtJe Boeing 747 was carrying 254 passengers, including 13 AmericanS.
when it crashed into the dense underbrush of rocky hill on this U.S.-gov;
emed Pacific island.
Investigators said 29 people survived. The plane skidded three-tenths ~
a mile through the vegetation, slowing in speed before hitting a ridge on the
hillside and breaking up.
,One of the survivors, 11-year-old Rika Matsuda, her small face bruised
and puffy, visited a hill near the wreckage Friday to lay a bouquet of yellow
flowers in memory of her mother, who died in the crash.
Later, Buddhist monks in orange and black robes led a memorial service
on the hill. About 50 mourners, mostly relatives;;llowcd their hea_ds and wept.
qu1etly as the monks chanted prayers, rang cht&:s and bumtd mcense.
The plane's.pilot, Park Yong·chul, 44, also died in the crash, NTSB offi·
cials were lookilfg into his condition before the flight - a South Korean
newspaper has suggested he may not have had enough rest before the SeoulGuam trip.
·
.
Black dismissed as unlikely an NBC report that the pilot may have con·
fused two navigational beacons, which could have led him to try to land the
plane on the hill thioking it was the runway instead.
. "This is not the sort of mistake you normally make," Black said, adding
that even if the three-member cockpit team had confused tlie beacons it would
not have led to Wednesday's crash.
'Investigators also played down Guam International Airport's lack of a
working "glide slope," a navigational device that guides a plane's descent
to the runway. Many airports around the world are without the mechanisms,
and pilots have other methods of landing. Flight 801 's cockpit acknowledged .
a message from the airport that the glide slope was down, Black said.
NTSB agents were busy mapping the wreckage to put together a three·
dimensional computer model of the site. Investigators took a helicopter ride
over the site Friday, and plan to take a simulation flight to get an idea of what
th~ pilot saw as tbej~t arproached the ai~rt.

Bowden would rehire ·
Rose as manager if
he gets reinstated
CINCINNATI (AP)- If baseball
welcomes back former Cincinnati
Reds manager Pete Rose, the team
might give him his old job back.
This comes from no less than
Reds general manager Jim Bowden.
"Number one, he deserves to be
reinstated,".Bowden said. "And once
he is, I believe he belongs in the Hall
of Fame. and he should have the
opponunity to manage."
Rose, who has been banned since
1989 for. gambling, has spoken of
· . having his suspension lifted but has
not asked acting commissioner Bud
Selig to do so.
· Rose was in Cooperstown, N.Y.,
last week signing autographs 'down
the street from the Baseball Hall of
Fame during the annual induction
ceremonies.
The all-time hits leader managed
the Reds in the mid-1980s and said
he has no ambition to manage again.
He is the host Of a radio spons talk
show and owns a restaurant in Boca
Raton, Aa.
Bowden, who , brought in Jack
McKeon as interim manager after tiring Ray Knight on July 25, said lf
Rose were reinstated and expressed
interest in the Reds job. he would
interview him.
"If Jack McKeon does not remain
as manager. yes. I would ~onsidcr
him," Bowden said. "Absolutely, I
would consider him because we
would consider all good candidates.
He left here as manager, so he obviously deserves to be considered."
Rose broke Ty Cobb's record of
4,191 hits ori Sept. II, 1985, and finished his career with 4,256.
The 56-year-old Rose told CBS
SponsLine that.he's waited so long to
apply for reinstatement because he
wanted to make sure the timing was
right.
"We don't want to apply for reinstatement and for them to take the letfer and put it on the back burner," he
said.

New surroundings brought suecess to Mark Mc()wi~ and Brian
McRae, both of whom were playing
home games for the first time with
their new teams.
Mc()wirehita441-foothomerun
in his Busch Stadium debut as the St.
Louis Cardinals stopped a five-game
losing streak with a 6-1 win over the
Philadelphia Phillies on Friday nigh!.
McRae, who was traded earlier
Friday from· the <:;ubs td the Mets,
had three hits and scored twice as
New York defeated Houston 6-1
Elsewhere, Aorida beat Atlanta 64; San Francisco blanked Montreal40; Los Angeles downed Cincinnati
10-5; Colorado defeated Pittsbwgh 53; and Chicago topped,San Diego 31.
Mc()wire, traded from Oakland to
the Cllrdinal~ on July 31, 'had managed just two singles in 26 at-bats
before connecting for a solo shot in
the third inning.
The crowd of 32.530 gave MeGwire a long standing ovation after his
homer.
"I've never seen anything like
this," MeG wire said. "I do11 't think
I' ve ever heard a crowd so loud in a
regular-season game. It's tremendous."
"I don't care who you are, that
was something out there tonight,"
Cardinals manager Tony· La Russa
said. "The fan response really got
Red going. Everybody's pulling hard
for him. He struggled, but he's handied it like a champion."
McGwire, who hit 34 home runs
for the Athletics, had gone 71 at-bats
since hilling two on July 16 at
Kansas City.
"It was just a relief to hit a ball
hard," McGwire said. "It was just a
matter of getting a pitch to drive . I
haven't been missing my pitches, I
just haven't been getting them."
Donovan Osborne (2-4) avenged
a 10-lloss to Mark Leiter (7-12) and
the Phillies last Sunday, allowing
three hits and no earned runs in seven innings. He struck out six and
walked none.

McRae, who had a lriple and two
singles to help send Houston to its
fifth straight loss, learned of the trade
when he arrived at Wrigley Field in
the afternoon.
He .hopped a plane to New.York
and made it to Shea Stadium 90 minutes before gametime.
"The~ was nothing else for me to
do in Chicago and the Mets are in a
pennant race, so I figured I might as
well come and try and help," McRae
said.
"Frankly, I Was happy not to
screw things up. I've been struggling
and if I don't get here, I don't get the
three hits. I need every one I can
get."
Carlos Baerga, John Olerud and
Edgardo Alfonzo had two hits apiece
for New York, which had its major
league-leading 36th comeback vic to:

Wilhelm paces 27-23 Bengals win
By HARRY ATKINS
AP Sports Wrlttr
PONTIAC, Mich. - Bruce
Coslet and Bobby Ross were both
trying to win, yet each coach also
wanted to eKperiment. To that end,
Coslet came ·out ahead on both
counts.
Erik Wilhelm, who appears des·
tined tO' be the No. 3 quarterback for
Cincinnati, threw two second-half
touchdown passes Friday night, lift·
ing the Bengals to a 27-23 eKhibition
victory over the Detroit Lions.
. But that isn ' t what impressed
Coslet, who has been tinkering with
the idea 'of putting rookie Corey OilJon in the same backfield .with Ki·
Jana Carter.
As it turned out, Dillon, a bruising
200-pound rookie out of Washington,
made a strong case for bumping
Carter down to No. 2 on the Bengals'
. depth chart. Dillon carried II times
for 47 yards against the Lions. He
also caught a pass for eight yards.
''l'm looking for the holes," Oil·
Jon said. "Fortunately, they were
popping left and right. I was more
comfortable with the offense and
things are starting tQ come together
for us."
Cos let, not generally given to
praising rookies, couldn't hide his
admimtion of DiiiO'n.
"He:s a big man. He's a nonhsouth man," Coslet said. ''He packs
a wallOp when he gets there, and he's
going to be good down the road."
What about Carter, who gained
five yafds on three carries?
"Well, Ki-Jana is still the starter,
because he knows the offense better,"
Coslet said. "We're going to usc both
.of them a lot this season."
Not exactly a glowing endorse:ment for Carter.
: Wilhelm, who started the third
:quarter, was 5-of-7 for 82 yards
before giving way to rookie Eric
Kresser midway through· the founh
quarter.

un•s something I've practiced
every day since training camp start·
ed," Wilhelm said. "I work on it all
the time. It all comes down to timing.
When you get comfortable with a
receiver, it's very easy to do that ."
. The Lions were their own worst
enemy, turning the ball over 'three
times and drawlng eight penalties for
69 yards. As a result, they also drew
the wrath of Ross . .
"The ·biggest thing to the game
was the tum6vers," an angry Ross
said. "On top of that, way too many
penalties. I'm gonna tell you this: If
guys ate goi·ng to make penalties
they 're going to fmd themselves a
quick bus ticket out of here. We ' re
not going to have unnecessary penalties, and we had 'em." '
. Jason Hanson's 23-yard field goal
cut the lead to four points with 7:54
remaining. The Bengals, behind the
running and receiving of rookie T~
Douthard, kept the ·ball away from
Detroit (1 -1) the rest of the way.
Barry Sanders, playing 12 of the
first 15 plays for the Lions, carried
seven times for 24 yards. including
10 yards on a draw play on third-and9. He also caught a 5-yard pass from
Scott Mitchell.
Mitchell, playing the first two
series, was 10-of-15 for 74 yards.
Mitchell, whose Ionge<! toss was a
16-yarder to tight end David Sloan,
gave up an interception at the Ben. gals I to kill Detroit's first drive. He
flipped a 5-yard touchdown pass to
Tommie Boyd to complete Detroit's
second possession.

three solo tackles in Ja,t week's win
over San Francisco.
. The Chargers would prefer he get
the job done because San Diego is
thin at linebacker. Scau's projected
backup, CFL veteran Grant Carter,
was suffering from post-concussion
trauma this week.

Green was second with a 65, followed by Lee Trevino, the 1994 and·

Sometimes, however, contestants get carried away.
During one episode, Hanick recalled, one contestant
waiting for the final round turned to his opponent and
said, '\I am praying that God lets me win. 11
To which the other replied: "Well, I'm .praying that
God lets ME win! "

Sport of swordplay enjoys another
one of its every-so-often revivals
By MITCH BRODER
Gannett Sub!ll'btln Newspapers
On a thick summer day in Man• hattan, Cathy Ennesser walked inlo a
classroom, greeted her teacher and
stabbed him in the chest.
Three hundred times.
It could've been the heat. But she
would have done it on a thin winter
day, too. Auacks are her hobby.
She's a fencer, which, to be sure,
puts her in a minority·- but a minority that, of late, is looking more and
more major. Fencing, the spon of
swordplay, is having another one of
those surges it's gouen every so often
since I 190 B.C.
People fr<im the rich and fam0us
to the poor and obscure are choosing
their weapons and dueling the night,
or the day, away. And this time
around, a lot of those people are kids .
There are no statisiics on whether this
has anything to do with parents.
There are, however, statistics that
show that fencing is booming. They
come from the United States Fencing
Association, the sport's national governing b9dy. In just one year, says
spokeswoman Colleeif Walker Mar,
the group's membership has jumped
20 percent, from I0,000 to 12,000.
"Today's market is so bombarded
.with basketball, football, baseball, "
says Peter Westbrook. an Olympian
who connects disadvantaged kids
with fencing. ".The time is right. People are tired of what we already have.
They're looking for unconventional
sports.''

That's what Ennesser was doing
when she showed up ~t Metropolis
Fencing, a Manhattan club owned by
Olympic fencer Zaddick Longenbach. Metropolis is one of the hugest
fencing clubs in the country, and its
group lessons are a lure for the
prospective swordsman.
"It looked like fun," Enhesser
says. " It's an intriguing spo£1 . So I

private lessons."

Finding aids .scientific attack on brain cell death
USA Today
Scientists reponed Thursday that
they have discovered how Huntington's disease destroys brain cells and
for the first time can begin to design
drugs for people at risk.
Two studies in Friday's Cell reveal
in intimate detail how a mutant protein produced by ·the defective Huntington's gene maneuvers its way
into the nucleus of a brain cell. Inside,
it turns into an insoluble clump and
kills the cell.
" What you are looki~g at is the
very forst step in cell death; and that
immediately gives us new directions
toward treatment and prevention,"
said Nancy Wexler of the Hereditary
Disease Foundation, which funded
the research.

DEAR DR. BLONZ: Enclosed is a panial panel from a container of
nondairy creamer- a very acceptable product, I must add. I am concenned
and curious as to the origin of the sixth-listed ingredient, sodium stearoyl
lactylate. My limited background in organic chemistry suggests that the "I act.. ponion is a milk product. If so, this is not milk-free, and I can't use.it since
I am lactose-intolerant. Other milk-free products also seem to have myste·
rious "lact-" elements in them. What can you· tell me about this ingredient?
- J.D., San Diego
, .
DEAR J.D.: I do have concerns about this product, but for a reason different from the one in your query.
First, let me answer your question. Sodium stearoyllactylate is a food additive that serves as an emulsifier. Let me explain what this rneans. Nondairy
creamers. similar to real cream or half-and-half, are a mixture of a fat and
water. Since these components separate soon after they are mixed together,
there has to be a way of keeping them in solution; otherwise, one would have
to shake vigorously before every use. Milk products use homogenization to
keep the ingredients blended. It is a mechanical process that breaks the fat
into very fine panicles, small enough to remain evenly distributed in the
water-based milk::
.
.
In a fabricated product such as your nondairy creamer, food processors
don' t use a mechanical process but rely instead on chemical emulsifiers such
as sodium stearoyllactylatc. The "lact-" ponion of the compound comes from
the fact that it i~ ll)ade f~om lactic acid (not.lactose, the main carbohydrate
on m1lk). There os very hulc of the sodoum stearoyl. lactylate there , though,
so e'f'en if it were lactose it wouldn't be enough to cause a reaction in one
who is lactose-intolerant.
My concerns about your product stem from the fact that it. like most
nondairy creamers, is made with panially hydrogenated vegetable oil. Often
people switch from milk or half-and-half to a nondairy coffee creamer thinking that they are using a more healthful , cholesterol-free alternative. In my
opinion, they re nol.
Panial hydrogenation is the process hy which a vegetable oil is changed
from a liquid oil to a semisolid fat. The process. however. docs more than
harden the oil: it .creates a type of aberrant fat- trans fatty acids - that is
linked to maJOr diseases such ,as cancer and hcan disease.
I think it is prudent to avoid panially hydrogenated fat whenever po>Sible, and the way to do this is to control your intake of high-fat processed
foods. A small amount of a nondairy creamer doesn't mmain much. hut if
you stan looking around at the foods you cat you may he surprised at hnw
many conlliin panially hydrogenated fat. Snack lilods such as chips and donuts
arc the first ones to watch. Your usc of shonening and spreadable vegetable
fats should also be kept to a minimum. When using a spreadable hu. consider butter, or make your own "soft " spread by mixing butter with a liquid, monounsaturated oil such as olive, canola or almond oil. If you arc going
to use a margarine, choose a liquid or tub margarine -one that lists partially hydrogenated fat no higher than third on the ingredient statement.
DEAR DR. BLONZ: l am a vegetarian, and I cat lots of fruits . I was
hoping that you could you give nic some nutritional information ·ori dates

DEAR R.R.: A cup of dried dates provides about 2 milligrams of iron,

In search of a real oldies group

' The Drifters, Coasters and Platters were among the legendary
groups on the bill at a recent oldies
show where the audienCe heard etassics from the '50s and '60s like
"Save the Last Dance for Me,"
"Charlie Brown" and "The ,Great
Pretender."

il9thing to do with Chubby Checker.

~ijstory has told us of the greatest
meetings of .the minds: Grant and
Lee, Roosevelt and Stalin, Caesar
and Cleopatra, Edison and Ford.
It's missed one, says writer Alan
Rosen. On Dec. 21, 1970, -Elvis
Presley met Richard Nixon.
"I think it's ·one of the greatest
events of Ameri!!aD pop culture." ·
OK, maybe that's a sign that pop
culture is a bit addled. Still, Rosen's
movie ("Elvis Meets Nixon," at 9
p.m. Sunday on pay-cable Showtime) makes its points.
· During the week leading up to
Aug. 16 (the 20th anniversary of
Presley's death), cable channels are
stuffed with specials. None is likely

The condenser is an important pan

Looked at another way, a lillie dust
on your refrigerator can cost you a lot
of money on your utility bill.
The first step in the maintenance
process is to dctenninc what kind of
condenser your refrigerator has. It
either has a static condenser mounted on its back, or it has a fan-cooled
condenser m·)untcd underneath in the
compressor compartment. The fan
blows air across the condcnserto cool
it.
In the case of a fan-cooled condenser, first unplug the refrigerator
and then remove the front lower grille
cover (on most models this is held in
place with spring clips). Grip the
cover on both sides. pull it down from
the top, then lift it off. There is often
a small tag on the cover's top ·edge
thai states how often the condenser
should be cleaned or inspected (usually every. three months).
Clean the condenser using the
crevice tool attachment on your vacuum. After vacuuming. check that the
condenser is clean by shining a nash. light through its coils. Incidentally,
the flashlight should have fresh bat-
.
~
teries in it so it throws a nice, sharp
beam.
Next, go to the refrigerator's back
and remove the rear access panel by
backing out the hex head sheetmetal
screws that hold the f,anel to the
refrigerator body: Use a nut driver to
do this or a small socket on a cordless drill.
Vacuum the coils clean from the
back. Ifnced be, usc a paintbrush to
dislodge dust that the crevice tool did
not pull out or that wa• pushed
toward the back .of the appliance.
Check with a flashlight to make sure
it's clean. The process is nearly the
same in cleaning a static condenser.
You vacuum it and brush it clean.
Next. pull out the condenser drain
pan and wash it with mild soap and
water. Dry it thoroughly and slide it
back in place. Finally. plug the rcfrigcrator back. in, and clean the floor
behind it before pushing it back into
place.
·
U:avc enough 'space behind the
refrigerator lo allow air circulation
(this is especially important with Siatic condenser models). If you're not
sure how much space to leave. look
in the owners manual, or comact a
servicing appliance dealer or the
manufacturer.
There are many other key economic Jenns that can help you beuer
understand the direction of the mar- ·
ket. Confer with an investment professional · today for more infonnation . He or she will identify those
economic reports. worth following
and describe their importance as
they relate to-your personal financial
