The Voinovich proposal identifies schools to be helped through a
formula that takes into account the

Tax increase may
grow from budget woes
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)- An increase in major taxes could become
pan of the solution lO a Slate budget deficit that looms at $930 million
over the next 17 months.
The pressures keep building, and most of the ingredients that have
gone into past increases appear to be there.
However, this is a leg~slative election year and both parties have said
that there will be no increase unless it is jointly endorsed.
Ohio's last major increase was 90 percent in the income tax in 1983.
Former Democratic Gov. Richard Celeste, upon taking office, convinced the Legislature the increase was needed to oven:ome a $538 million budget deficit and to help financially strapped schools.
Gov. George Voinovich, like Celeste, is hearing increasing demands
for more school funding and being reminded by teachers' groups and others that during his 1990 campaign he promised to become Ohio's "education governor."
He said that despite his pleas for more efficiency, which some schools
and colleges have responded to, "You bet There's waste out there."
Voinovich and legislative leaders hope that an upturn in the economy
or more belt-tightening, or both, will solve the current problem.
· But the,Republican governor, who promised in his campaign last year
hot to raise taxes, did not rule it out Friday when reminded that the economy could get worse instead of better.
When asked when he will decide if an increase is needed, he said,
''We're not there yet" But he would tell Ohioans. "If we ask for your
money, you are going to see the results."
Voinovich, House Speaker Vern Riffe, D-Wheelersb urg, and Senate
President Stanley Aronoff, R-Cincinnati, say that with cuts already implemented and adjustments being made by the Legislature, the state can
overcome a $457 million deficit in the current fiscal year.
But in the fiscal year starting July I, it will need $473 million more
" and that's going to be a real challenge," Voinovich said.
· He ordered a study to see what can be done lO curb soaring Medicaid
costs, one of the biggest and the fastest growing budget items.
He has cut spending by $196 million, including $88 million in primary
and secondary education and $58 million from higher education. School
officials say they already arc reeling from those cuts.
Welfare, which cannot be cut because of federal mandates, and education make up 76.2 percent of General Fund spending.
All other programs except education, which was reduced by 2.5 percent, were hit by reductions of 3 percent to 6 percent.
· Voinovich proposed $58 million in increases in taxes on tobacco products and alcoholic beverages, but they were rejected by Riffe.
Riffe agreed with the governor that other alternatives must be explored
lir.;t. But he added,' 'I've never run away from my responsibilities."

abortion that was struck down by a
district court and then upheld by
the Court of Appeals. The case,
from its very i/lception, has been
designed as a test for Roe. Both
sides have long been ready, so the
court will hear arguments and
should be ready to rule by the time
it adjourns for the summer.
It is generally acknowledged
that George Bush has stacked the
court with justices who find no

'rights are not constitutionaUy protected but, instead, are subject to
slate regulation. Thus of immediate
concern to supponers is what various states are likely to do once
freed from constitutional restraints
against outlawing, limiting or regulating abortions.
According to a new study by the
National Abortion Rights Action
League, it is likely that 13 states
will almost immediately outlaw or
severely curtail abortions. Based on
the anti-abortion views of their
governors and state legislatures,
and on state laws already in place,
NARAL believes that Alabama,
Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi,
Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, West Virginia and Wisconsin will quickly move against
abortions.
The organization believes it
likely that all other states except
California, Connecticut, Hawaii,
North Carolina, Oregon, Vermont
and Washington. will eventually
restrict abortion rights to some
degree. It is only in these seven
Slates that NARAL believes abor-

He also repeated his pledge to
make Ohio "a trailblazer" in meeting the six national education
goals: school readiness, reducing
the drop-out rate, competency in
challenging subje,ct matter, proficiency in science and math, literacy
for all adults, and drug- and violence-free schools. Whereas these
goals are absolutely vital, local
school boards and superintendents
across the state are patiently waiting for direction from the
Voinovich Administration on how
to implement these changes as they
struggle to keep their doors open
and to maintain quality classes.
If the Governor was short on
specifics for education, he unveiled
a new initiative for economic
development, hitching Ohio's economic fortunes to a growing expon
market and to what he called the
"jobs of the future": science and
technology.
Governor Voinovich called for

the public's surrogate and should
not partake of privileges not available to the public. Anything shon
of an absolute standar!i amounts to
compromise.

lO massive curtailing of individual
rights.

As is done· every year, the Governor of the State of Ohio
addressed a joint session of the

Recalling last year's state budget deliberations and a national
economic recession that fon:ed one
of the leanest state operating budgets in years, Governor Voinovich
said this difficult challenge enabled
him to reorder government operations so it could "do more with
less.''
He rattled off seve ral 1991
accomplishments for the Buckeye

infants and children enrolled in
Healthy Start programs; more
money for immunizatioll shots for
school children; 10,000 new day

use the case to strike down Roe.
'But in so arguing, then Solicitor
General Charles Fried told the
coun that the government wanted
only a limited ruling.
"We are not asking the coun to
unravel the fabric of unenumerated

But St. Louis lawyer Frank Susman responded thai if the court
struck down Roe, •' there is no stopping."

Given the limited ruling in Webster, the question was not
answered. Many legal experts fear
that if the court rules broadly in ·
striking down Roe, it will become
the central question to be faced by
courts for the next generation.

was getting beltCr.
"I sa w him last month. when

Bills. We're lpnd of fre sher and
ready to get down to work."
Not that both stdes went on
vacation in the last week. They
practi ced, sometimes without pads,
and they held mcettng s. They
looked at some film.
But there was lillie or no mtcnsuy to the preparations. In fact,
there was hule preparing for the
opposition.
" We dtd not work heavtly on
the game plan w!lh the players,"
Bills head coach Marv Levy said.
"The meetings were shorter, the
pracuccs were shorter, we wanted
fresher players.
I "The coaches got in all of the
game plan work we wanted to do
(m Buffalo). We ran some plays
and exposed the players to th e
defenses the Redskins might play."
Before they traveled to Minneapolis on Monday, the Bills had
a normal practice. That, Levy said,
was a rarlly. It also was a bonus.
"We certainly got a running
start and today helped," he said

Monday mght.
The Rcd skin s also traveled
Monday followmg a practice scsston. It was thctr first extensive
work on the game plan for the Btlls
after a week of what head coach
Joe Gtbbs termed "poltshing."
Gibbs said he couldn't hold
back m pracoccs any longer.
" It seemed like everybody was
a hule distracted," he satd. "We're
all kind of happy to gel gomg and
to get up here."
Both sides agreed that the extra
week was a blessing. The Btlls dtd
not have that luxury last year, when
they lost to the New York Giants
20-19. The NFL, whtch goes to a
16-gamc schedule m 18 weeks next
year, no longer plans to sched ule
the extra week between conference
title games and the Super Bowl,
"It's night and day," Levy satd.
" It's far beuer for team s lo put
their best foot forward and best
football forward .
"It was breakneck (last year).
For the game plans, I don't think

you can fully apply one under those
conditions.'
Lmebacker Darryl Talley
agreed.
"We've had a liule more time
Lo absorb this," he srud. "You wm
a big ~arne and a day later you're
preparmg for a btgger game. It's a
liule rushed gomg from one btg
game to another.' ;
The Redskin s won a Super
Bowl when there wns no off week.
They won a Super Bowl when
there was a two-week gap.
"I thmk we have had both and
won wtlh both and, 1' lltell you,

Jamaican bobsledders seek respect in Olympics
By HALliOCK
AP Sports Writer
Undaunted by its first adventure
over the snow and ICC of Calgary
and the occasional crash landmgs
that come with the terruory, the
Jamaican bobsled team returns next
month for another go al the
Olympics, this time in Albertville.
Say this for its members. They
don't g1ve up easily.
"Oh, no," said team captain
Devon Hams , m the lilting
singsong of tht Islands. " We
would not do lhat. It was not a
stunt or a one·shot thing. IL was a
serious effort to show that a team
from a tropical country could be
competitive. We had to prove that.
"A number of people thought
· we were jokers, th at we would be
: like the Swiss playing cricket and
• get hammered. We had to prove we

· were serious."
:

Of course, they were serious.

You knew that from the reggae
theme song that accompanied them
through the streets of Calgary at all
hours of the day and night.
In part. il went this way:
"We bo trainin', gainin', strainin' and painm', but we ain' t complainm'
Jamaica bobsled, ragamuffin,
Jamaica bobsled, we ruff'n Luff'n.
Everything cool, mon."
Nothmg funny about that. nght?
So Harris and his pals stayed in
thetr sleds, runn ing in sand and
lugging pushcarts around on Carnbbcan concrete, then uavehng to
train in snow and icc m places like
Calgary and lnnsbruck.
Seve n of th em will be in
Albertville, where Jamaica wtll
enter a pair of two-man sleds and
one four- man team. The ,four-man
driver will be Dudl~y Stokes, and

as such he geLS the li rst look at the
treacherous curves and comers. He
says he is delighted with his JOb.
" I think it 's scarter m back,"
Stokes said. " I have confidence m
myself. When you're bchmd so mebody else, tl' s tougher. In front,
there's no time to worry."
Harris, also a driver, agrees with
his tcarnmatc's philosophy. He was
a brakeman in Calgary, where the
two-man Jamaican team fimshed
30th among 52 teams.
And the four-man sled?
" We had a mishap," Harris said
sadly.
That's a mishap, as in a crash .
"We were going down merrily
mto curve 12. The dri ver was late
gelling into the corner. We went up
too high on the wall and went over
on our hea ds. We slid for 200
meters, upside down.' '
This is not a comfortable condi-

Lion and would be considered a perfec tly good rGason for Hams and
his buddtes 10 head strdtght for the
beach back hom e. Instead, th ey
made aU-tum and went back to the
top of the run. "We did u again,"
he sai d. ' 'That is th e best way
when you have a cmsh.''
They caught the imaginauon of
the Calgary crowds and the reactiOn spread around the world.
"Mostly, Iamrucans who live overseas were affected 10 a positive
way by ivhat we did," Stokes satd.
" Overseas, Jamaicans have· a seige
mentality. This was somethmg for
them 10 hang their hats on. They
were very appreciative."
Their goal for Albertville ts to
crack the Lop 20 finishers m both
the two·man and four:man events.
And more imponantly, not to look
like the Swiss trying to play cricket.
Watch 'em, mon.

By The Bend
Beat of the Bend...
by Bob Hoeflich
How convenient! The first big
snow of winter came Monday on
Martin Luther King's birthday.
Schools and a lot of public offices
were closed in observance of the
holiday thus a lot of people didn't
have to struggle with a problem.
And how about that window of
attractive teddy bears at Clark's
Jewelry Store. The colorful and
attractive bears are accented with
some interesting valentines. The
bears are from the collection of
Susan Clark an d husband, Joe,
points out that the window is aimed
at making you feel romantic and go
in the store to pun:hase a Valentine
present for your favorite personnice window.
Robe!l Landers of Pomeroy

good news he received on the
weekend. His name was drawn on
the Saturday night Ohio Lottery
television show to be a co ntestant

in wishing Robert well.
If you're young and talented
you might be interested in auditioning for th e live shows at Cedar
Point in Sandusky next summer.

agers, tec hnicians and the Berenstain Bear costumed characters at
tile same location . Registration is

dancers, instrumentalists and actors
arc included in the auditions. If
you' re interested in show biz, you
might want to give it a shot. I have
more detail on hand. Oh, and you
gotta be at least 18.

has both a human and animal den·
tal practice in Vcro Beach, Fla.
Dr. Sandra Manfra, who opcmt·
ed on Bud Lite, is one of only 22
board certified veterinary dentists
in the nation.
Only two veterinary coll eges,
the University of Pennsylvania and
the University of lllinois, where
Manfra teaches, employ such
instructors full time, and there arc
only four dental resid ency programs.
But the American Veterinary
Dental Society, wh ic h began with
about eight veterinarians in 1977,
now has more than 1,000 members.
"Clients have started asking for
th ese services because their ani mal s have mouth pain," Man fra
sa id recently. "About 85 percent of
all dogs and cats over 4 years of
age have serious dental problems."
Bud Lite's problem was a di scase that cats away the root of the
tooth, called external root resorp·
tion. Without specialized tru ining,
many vets would not diagnose it,
said Manfra.

" My solution is to rebuild
America with thi s blueprint,"
Harkin said, holding up his book.lc.t
for all to see.
One of Harkin's proposals is a
massive infrastructure program,
financed mainly through defense
cuts, that.the Iowa senator says will
create 1 million jobs in one year.
He also vow~ to help mothers with
day care, the . unemployed .with
extended .benefits, manufacturers
with tough trade pOlicies.
As is true with other candidates; ·
there were still some specifics
missing. When Harkin was asked
what non -defense cuts he advocates, he gave no deta.ils beyond
"streamlining" the bureaucracy.
Clinton on Sunday put out an
11-page outline of his health care
plan that was more a compilation
of his goals than a treatise on how
to achieve them.
"It's a contest for the perception
of being most specific," said University of New Hampshire political
science professor Robert Craig.
''Nobody is going to sit down and
read all that stuff anyway."

MONDAY PAPER

Clinton 's recent momentum in
New Hampshire has been attributed
in part to the detailed campaign
proposals he has promoted in ads
and in a booklet mailed to 60,000
Democratic households.
Kcrrey refers to Clinton's string
of campaign proposals as a ''laundry list" and says voters need lead·
crship more than ,policy papers.
Still, he put forward his own string
or proposals durin g Sunday's
debate.

- The federal government this

will order 5,000 more next year. ln.
five years the government hopes
that one of every two of the expeeted 70,000 vehicles it will buy annually will be non·gasoline powered.
Gasoline powered cars and
trucks are the single largest source
of ai~ pollution, emitting smogfor mmg hydrocarbons and toxic
chemicals as well as the principal
"greenhouse" gas, carbon dioxide.
Most alternative fuels produce sig·
mftcan~y less pollution from· vehicles, although in some cases their
production may still have environmental drawbacks that contribute to
global warming.
Generally, the widespread usc of
alternative-fuel vehicles al so would
sharply reduce America's dependence on petroleum, since twothirds of tbe 17 million barrels of
oil consumed each day goes to
transportation.

To sue or not: women with

NEW YORK (AP) - Thousand; of women frightened by the
possibility that their illnesses are
related to their silicone-gel breast

should sue.
In many cases, the answer is no.
Because of the cost and time
involved in suing, only those with
the severest illnesses will find
someone to represent them. But
there may be far more badly damaged women th an anyon e had
imagined.

On Jun. 6, Food and Drug Commissioner David Kessler asked for
a 45-day moratorium on usc of sili·
cone-ge l implants to assess new
safety data. The implants have been
blamed for such disorders as lupus,
scleroderma and arthriti s, but no
link has been proved.

The four brothers in the Shank
family of Pomeroy are all active in
the Pomeroy Volunteer Fire
Department , holding various
offices and positions. Their
involvement has beco me a long·
standing tradition dating back to
their childhood days.
Bryan Shank joined the department in 1976, and has served as a
firefighter, a lieutena~t and a cap·
tain . He currently se rve s as a
trustee for the deparunenl.

Bryan's brother, Jeff Shank, is
an 18-year member of the department. He is First Assistant Chief at
the present time, and has served the
department as Second Assistant
Chief, President, Captain and firefighter.
pris Shank, who joined the
deparunent in 1984, is currcn~y the
department's first captain. He has
also served the fire department as

and trustee of the department. He
joined the deparunent in 1988.
Prior to becoming full-fledged
mem bcrs of the department, and in
their childhood days, all four brothers assisted the department in
washing and waxing the l!ucks.
The fire-fighting Shanks are the
sons of Scott and Ethel Shank of
Union Avenue in Pomeroy.

Globes divided among--Htajor
films like 'Bugsy' and 'Beauty~
By nOB THOMAS
Associated Press Writer
\
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP)
- The Golden Globe awards gave
Oscar handicappers no clear
favorite, spreading honors among
"Beauty and the Beast,"
"Bugsy," "JFK" and "The
Prince of Tides."
Disney's "Beauty and the
Beast" got a pre-Oscar boost by
winning three awards SaiUrd~y
night from the Hollywood Foreign
Press Association: best musical or
comedy. best song and best original

·
Other Golden Globes at the 49th
annual ceremony went to director
Oliver 'Stone for "JFK"; Jodie

cable network's tnlk show "Altitudes."
The new hosts will be in place
Feb. I 0. The change was made
because the network, whose target
audience is women, wanted to
return "Attitudes" to its previous
format with two women as cohosts, spokesman Alex Wagner
sa1d Monday.
Lucey works at KCBS -TV irl
Los Angeles, Waus at WABC-TV
in New York.
Lifetime is seen in 53 million
households, the network said.
LOS ANGELES (AP) " Boyz N The Hood" director John
Singleton is direc ting Michael
Jackson's new music video, which
stars Magic Johnson, Eddie Murphy and the mOdcllman.
The video for "Remember the
Time" from Jackson 's "Dangerous" album will premiere Feb. 2
on Fox Broadcasting, following
"In Living Color," and on MTV
and Black Entertainment Television, a Jackson spokesman said

Monday.
Jackson caused a stir with his
first video from the album. "Black
or While" sho:....cd him grabbing
his crotch and smashing windows.
He apologized and cut lour minutes
from the 11 -minutc video after its
release in November.
LOS ANGELES (AP)- Nirvana's hit album "Nevcrmind" is
giving listeners their money's
worth and more: The compact disc
has a 13th track that follows 10
minutes of silence.
The label on the "Neverm ind"
CD lists only 12 songs, including
the smash single "S mells Like
Teen Spirit." But most copies have
the extra song, "Endless Nameless." Cassclles don't have the
bonus track.
Chrissy Shannon, a spokeswoman for the David Geffen Co. in Los
Angeles, said the unadvertised song
is typical of the band.
"That's Nirvana," she said.
" It' s just supposed to make you
wonder."

Like William Holden in "Picnic," Will iam Petersen invades a
small, unsophisticated town and
di srupts the populace with hi s
unruly charm. Unlike ihe Holden
chawctcr, Petersen is no str:Jngcr.
He is a hometown boy addicted to
the wandering life.
Joey Coalter (Petersen) has hurried home from cowpunchi ng after
receiving an invitation to the wed·
-· ding of his wife (Sissy SpacckY to
his boyhood fri end (Brian Kerwin).
Joey doe sn't know she has
divorced him.
So fm so good, a likely setup for
a 1930.1 domestic comedy. But this
is 1992, and simplistic plots and
predictable characters do not a hit
comedy mukc.
The fault lies in Julc Sclbo's
script and Martin Davidson's direction. The plot offers no surprise,

LETTERS OF SUPPORT • Meigs County individuals, organiza·
- lions and businesses are responsible for over 100 letters of support for
the location of a medium-security prison in Meigs County. Here Pam
Newell, Executive Secretary for lhe Meigs Countr Chamber or Commerce, and Charles Kitchen, Acting Chamber D1reclor, are pictured

By BRIAN J. REED

More than 100 letters in support
of a prison site in Meigs County
have ·been received by the Meigs
County Chamber of Commerce,
and will be forwarded to state officials.
Late last year, Governor George
Voinovich announced that Meigs
County was one of three Southeastem Ohio counties being considered
as a site for a medium-security
state ~rison. Belmont and Noble
Counties are also being considered
as sites for the prison. Since that
time, county officials and the
chamber of commerce have spearheaded a campaign to locate the
prison here.
Two potential sites have been
chosen as the most likely to be con-

sidered locally. One o( the sites is.
Southern Ohio Coal Companyowned land in Salem Center, the
other is privately-owned property
near Racine.
Individuals from Meigs and surrounding counties, along with five
village councils, both political par·
ties, three water districts, Emergency Medical Services and volunteer
fire deparunents, local utilities, the
local bar association, veterans service office, local labor unions,
American Legiqn posts, churches
and religious organizations, township trustees from all townships,
school districts and businesses of
all sorts have wriuen leuers in support of the proposed prison.
Long, Abel comment
SJpport has also come from the
stale level through State Senator

Jan Michael Long (D-Circleville)
and State Representative Mary
Abel (D-Athens).
On Tuesday afternoon, Senator
Long said that he was in contact
with state officials regarding .a
prison location in Meigs County as
early as last fall.
"Last year, with the coal mine
situation as it was, I talked to (former county development director)
Elizabeth Schaad about economic
development activities in the county," Long said, "and we chatted
about the possibility of locating a
prison or youth rehabilitation facili·
ty in Meigs County."
Long reponed yesterday that he
then contacted Department of Corrections and Rehabilitations Director Re~inald Wilkinson to report
that officials in Meigs County were

interested in such a site. Long also
urged Schaad and other county
officials to be vocal in their support
of the location or a prison in the
county, since the deparunent dces
not have a strong record on local·
ing prisons where there is heavy
opposition.
Since Governor Voinovich's
announcement in December that
Meigs County was being considered as a potential site, Long says
that he has sent an "urgent request"
to Wilkinson concerning Meigs
County's position in the selection
process.

Long said that he cited Meigs
County's hi~h unemployment rate

state in his contacts with the Corrections Department

Columbus Southern lowers
proposed rate increase
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) Columbus Southern Power Co. has
offered to cut its proposed $202.5
million rate increase by nearly 25
percent.
The utility , in a motion filed
Tuesday with the Public Utilities
Commission of Ohio, said it agreed
"in principle " to lower the
increase to $15 S miII ion unti I the
commission decides the rate case,
expecte4 this spring.
Columbus South.ern tried to
impose a 28.4 percent rate increase,
citing its part of the $2.3 billion
cost of the Zimmer power plant
near Cincinnati. The new filing
would lower the increase to 21.7
percent and reduce the boost in the
average monthly residential bill
from $16.2lto $12.40.

The utility is a partner in the
Zimmer plant with Cincinnati Gas
&amp; Electric Co. and Dayton Power
&amp; Light Co.
State law allows a. ij(ility to
impose a rate increase, subject to
PUCO approval, if the PUCO
d'oesn't act upon the request within
275 days.
The city of Columbus and Con·
sumers' Counsel William Spratley
filed suit in Franklin County Commoo Pleas Court seeking to prevent
Columbus Southern from imposing
the rate increase. Judge Richard
Sheward issued a temporary
restraining order Jan. 10 against lhe
company pending furthi:r review of
the case.
The plaintiffs said the state law

allowing utilities to impose rate
increases is unconstitutional.
Columbus Southern appealed to
the Ohio Supreme Coun, which is
considering.the case.
Spra.tley· said the company 's
offer lD lowu its proposed increase
is "basically moot," since the suit
is pending.
.
PUCO spokeswoman Stacie
Gilg said the commission is
reviewing lhe. new proposal.
Columbus .Southem spokesman
Thomas Holliday said the $155
million proposal IS slightly below
the midpoint in the $148.8 million$170 million range (ecommended
last year by the PUCO staff.
He said the lower rate could
only be imposed if the court rules
in Columbus Southern's favor.
