The purpose will be to approve a plan for the overall revitalization project which will then be submitted to the Ohio Department of Development for a grant of up to $400,000 before the Feb. 5 deadline. Jean Trussell, Middleport's grant specialist, advised Council that she is now in the process of geiting commitments from busi nesses an~! building owners since all monies which the state puts into the project must be matched dollar for dollar. "Merchants have to sign agreements about what they will do to their buildings,'' said Trussell. She al~o pointed out that in addition to that match, the village will be required to put in 10 percent of lhe total amount. If the village has adequate commitment from the business community for a full $400,000 grant request, the village will be required to come up with $40,000, Trussell said. She emphasized, however, that the figure will depend on what the merchant or bu•lding match is. Councilman Paul Gerard raised the question of where the village will get the money for the I 0 percent, in view of the fact that the village last mornh had to borrow $200.000 becau se of financial deficits. Mayor Hoffman explained that it will be spread over a period of two years. and will be "not all cash. but the local share of -Issue 2 project funds in the downtown can be applied toward the local match." ."Any planned repair on th e streets can be used for tliat match", the grant specialist said. Trussell explained the need for a design review committee which will be the group charged with "controlling the downtown workseeing that the preservation adds flavor, that it's all ;tppropriate." An ordinance establishmg that committee was given a first reading by Council. Gerard voted "no" with the explanation that he felt Council was "getting the cart ahead of the horse" because of the money problem . Trussell also reported on a recent visit of a represenlative from the Ohio Department of Devclopmen t and her concern about the empty storefronts and what was being done to fill them. A resolution on standards and guidelines for repair, consDllction, and demolition. a part of the revitalization project, was tabled until the next meeting. Issue 2 Projects Council agreed to submit two projects for the Round 7, Issue 2 monies. The projects are North Second Avenue from the north corporation limits to the Mill.

However, at last night's meeting and following Council President Dewey Horton's recommendation for bonuses, a plan proposed by Gerard was adopted to provide S600. That amount will be supplemented by $400 from Vaughan's Cardinal to provide for $50 gift certificates for each of the 20 full- . time employees. The plan agreed to by all CounJ:il members provides for a pay decrease of $5 a meeting over the next year to come up with th e $600. "If we' re going to spend money,lhen let's tell residents how we're going to pay for it," said Gerard. Since the pay decrease must be handled by ordinance, the first reading was given at last ni ght's meeting. In the discussion it was noted after Councilman James Clatworthy had said employees "did not get a raise this year", that they did, in facl. receive a pay increase in July.

CINCII)IN ATI) - The North American Free Trade Agreement should provide new money-making opportunities for fanners. Ohio Farm Buteau leaders said. · · Bureau administrators are awaiting the final version .of the agreement but they said that what they have heard is promising. "We think that in the main, it's a good piece of work. k'U help us in the long run," said C. WiUiam Swank, the farm bureau's executive vice president. · · The nation '·s recent bilateral trade agreemepts with Canada helped Ohio fanners realize new business with that country, Swank said. The new trade agreement offers the possibility of substantially increased trade with Mexico for Ohio and other agriculturally productive Midwest states, he said. . "In both cases, it's been to our advantage to have the free ttade agreements, because we have the 'bread basket' tight here,'' Swank said. · . Ohio already exports about hlllf of its corn production, 45 percent of its ·soybean yiefd and about 10 percent of its livestock. Com ($800 million ·annually) and soybeans ($730 million a year) are considered tlie stare's . · 'biggest cash crops. John Hosemann, chief economist for the American Farm Bureau, said Mexico, Latin America and the Pacific Rim regions potentially are the most lucmliv~ growth markets for American fanners. · ' "A country like Mexico is tailor-made for what we're about," Hosemann said in an interview at the Ohio Farm Bureau's annual meeting. "They're a country with an increasing population and a krowing income. "FundamentaUy, U.S. agriculture doesn't have a choice but to trade, because we produce more than we consume.'' · · ' Not all ol' the im)lllct of trade agreements is necessarily good for Ohio, said Keith Stimpert, director of contract services, for the farm bureau.

Doura claims he then briefed the Haitian chief of police on the orders and explained the situation to two oi' three soldiers ~nt that night. " One of (ihe soldiers) fUJally agreed to execute the order received from the President,' ' the statement reads. The soldier accused of actually killing Lafontant was subsequently jaile!l.

Repeated calls to Aristide' s ambassador in the United States ·went unanswered, but a spokesperson at the Haitian embassy argued, "(passing a polygraph) doesn't mean anything."

Some of the pressure came off when Democratic Sen. Kent Conrad won the special election on Dec. 4 in North Dakota for the seat of the late Sen. Quentin Burdick. Had the GOP won that mce, it is likely the Clinton political team would have concluded that the risk of losing the seat in. Texas was too great, and Bentsen would have stayed in the Senate. · Then another key issue was. raised: Who would take over for: Behtsen as chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. The post is' critical to the ease with which any Clinton economics package gets through the Senate. The chairman must be completely behind the Clinton plan or else the committee could become a bottleneck. The spotlight .turned to New York Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan. He was considered one of • those in the Senate who could be • counted upon to back the presidentelect's financial package right I nmoffekction.Tbeq~tionofthe down the line. But the question ; hour became whether Democrats arose: Would he be willing to leave · would be able to hold Bentsen's the powerful chairmanship of the : seat in a special election, given that.

As chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, Bentsen already had considerable power and influence, and his was a safe Senate seat from which he could expect to be re-elected until he chose to retire. ' · · Bentsen, 71, had already started to talk of retirement. He was approached by Clinton with t~e idea that this would be a proper valedictory for his long career of public savice. He 6nally agreed. After Benisen said yes, uansition insiders say, things really bepn to get complicaled.

Four victims, dead on arrival, were transponed from the hospital entrance area and taken to the .on;· porary morgue, and four patients were admitted to the ~ospital by 7:40 p. m.. and only one of these, with lacerations, was taken to surgery.

The Med1cal Center Hospital had a full emergency run in July, of !967, when suddenly it received 14 patients from an industrial accident in the area, and due to this experience, all the staff were well posted and ready to receive patients. However, very early it became obvious that the Silver Bridge would not produce additiona1 disaster patients, but would produce ·fatalities, and standby faciliMEN'S & WOMEN'S ties would not be needed. There were no patients received at the Medical Center HosP,ital from the Silver Bridge disaster. An account or the Solver Bndge & disaster would not be complete without particular notice going to Paul Wagner and the staff of the Radio Station WJEH, of Gallipolis, Ohio. When the phone system in the city failed, Wagner's staff. being strategically localed both at the scene of the disaster and on the '' West Virginia side of the river, kept the area closely informed of all developments as rapidly as they could be observed. Officials on the scene gave spo t interviews and descriptions of the work being done, in fact, for a while this was 29 the only open means of communication between the three hospitals and the scene of the disaster.

ByLYNNELBER AP Television Writer LOS ANGELES - CDS won the latest TV ratings race. with a crime movie starring ?ally Duke, the detective series "Murder, She Wrote" and the venerable newsmagazine "60 Minutes." CBS was the most-watched network for the week of Dec. 7-13 with a 13.0 average rating, according to figures released Tuesday by the A.C. Nielsen Co. ABC was second with 12.6, and NBC was third with 10.6. Each ratings point represents 931,000 homes. ABC lost the big bounce it received the previous week when "Roseanne" and the premiere of "The Jackie Thomas Show" ranked flfSt and second, respectively. A repeat or ABC's "Roseanne" was No. 3, behind "60 Minutes" and "Murder, She Wrote." But "Jackie Thomas," husband Tom Arnold's sitcom, tumbled to 18th. The CBS movie ''A Killer gave it to her because she was in a hurry, and I knew you wouldn't mind. Sorry it took longer than t expected. . "Qh, ctamn! There's another call.
