Evans. a profe~sor emeritus at Ohio Cniversit\. was
the first \.\oman tenure professor of the E.W. Scripps

During an extended sabbatical from 1996 until1998,
Evmts spent t\\0 one-year
terms in Washmgton D.C. as
a surveyor of the press corps
in the Supreme Court.
A~ part of her presentation to the SeniorBEAT

group. Evarts gm e a btief
history of each of the 17
chief justices of the
Supreme Colli t. She discussed characteristic!-&gt; and
famous cases that each chief
justice had to O\Crsee during his term. beginning
from 1798 until the present.
She also answered questions and briet1y reflected
on her experience with the
reporters of the Supreme
Court.
During Evarts· two-term
stay. she sat with .reporters
during court hearings and
researched those reporting
on the cases. She then wrote
articles based on her
research of the pres!'! corps.
Evarts \\as especiull)
intere!'lted in comparing what

'"as actually said in court
hearings and what appeared
in press corps report!'! in
ne\\ spapers and other media.
Because of this curiositv and
a desire to publish accurate
reports, Evarts was able to
exercise some influence
when it came to transcripts
of hearings released to the
public. Evarts asked a public
information officer why the
justices' names were not
mentioned in the transcripts
in relation to what they said.
Later. the names were added
to each transcript in order to
offer more accurate information to the public.

Dear C.H .: It is a terrible

sure you were first aware of

and then found yourself feeling that you were not as
good as everyone else somehow damaged and at

the time because they were
JX&gt;Werles~ or clueless. And
after you hide things for a
,., hile. it becomes important
to keep hiding it.
But in the past couple of
decades. sexual-abuse survivors started telling their
stories to others \.\ ho had
similar experiences. and
group therapy has become
very popular for this kind of
mental and emotional health
challenge. It seems that you
have missed out on opportunities to participate in this
kind of reveal ing activity.
and it is unclear whether

Dear Dr. Brothers: I'm
in a weird situation. It
seems e\ery time I give my
best friend of 40 years a pre:;ent, 'he has to one-up me. 1

how emban-assing it can be
\\hen you feel vou arc on the

can ·r poss.bl) match in
terms of e\.pen,e. But let\
break this do\\ n a httlc. Your
situation. at its core. is simply a function of having a
close friend \\ho is in a different financial positto
from) ours. It is a fact of life
that she has more money to
spend on her gifting than
you do. Or. perhap" she
chooses to devote a greater
chunk of her income to the
pleasure of giving her clo!-&gt;e
friend really nice gifts. It"s a
cliche, but there is a lot of
happiness generated when
we are able to give others
something they might not be
able to give themselves.
This is not to sa) you are

the ultimate in personal

\.\ ould find that this kind of
present has a far greater
value than anything storebought - e\en a laptop!
Chances are. your friend
doesn't see the inequity in
your gl\ ing ~ituation the
way you do. She obviously
cherishes you and your
friendship. or she wouldn't
give you the extraordinary
gifts she has picked out.
There \\as no hint in your

a place of sincerity. !-&gt;O I

TOl)AY IN HISTORY
Today is Tuesday, Jan. 5, the f1fth day of 2010. There
are 360 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
On Jan. 5. 1925, Nellie T. Ross became governor of
Wyoming; she was the first female governor in U.S. history. (She succeeded Frank E. Lucas, who had served
as acting governor following the death of Ross' husband,
William B. Ross.)
On this date:
In 1781, a British naval expedition led by Benedict
Arnold burned Richmond, Va.
In 1809, the Treaty of the Dardanelles, which ended
the Anglo-Turkish War, was concluded by the United
Kingdom and the Ottoman Empire.
In 1895, French Capt. Alfred Dreyfus, convicted of
treason, was publicly stripped of his rank. (He was ultimately vindicated.)
In 1896, an Austrian newspaper {Wiener Presse)
reported the discovery by German physicist Wilhelm
Roentgen of a type of radiation that came to be known
as "X-rays."
In 1933, the 30th president of the United States,
Calvin Coolidge, died in Northampton, Mass., at age 60.
In 1949, in his State of the Union address, President
Harry S. Truman labeled his administration the Fair
Deal.
In 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower proposed
assistance to countries to help them resist Communist
aggression; this became known as the Eisenhower
Doctrine.
In 1970, Joseph A Yablonski, an unsuccessful candidate for the presidency of the United Mine Workers of
America, was found murdered with his wife and daughter at their Clarksville, Pa., home (UMWA President Tony
Boyle and three others were later convicted of the
killings). The soap opera "All My Children" premiered on
ABC-TV.
In 1994, Thomas P. kTip'' O'Neill, former speaker of the
U.S. House of Representatives, died in Boston at age 81.
In 1998, Sonny Bono, the 1960's pop star-turnedpolitician, was killed when he struck a tree while skiing at
the Heavenly Ski Resort on the Nevada-California state
line; he was 62.
Ten years ago: Touching off angry protests by CubanAmericans in Miami, the U.S. government decided to
send 6-year-old Elian Gonzalez back to Cuba. (After a
legal battle, and the seizure of Elian from the home of his
U.S relatives, the boy was returned to Cuba.)
Democratic presidential candidates AI Gore and Bill
Bradley engaged in a feisty debate in Durham. N.H.
Five years ago: The bodies of 18 young Iraqi Shiites
taken off a bus and executed in December 2005 were
found in a field near Mosul. Cpl. Wassef Ali Hassoun, a
Marine charged with desertion in Iraq after mysteriously
disappearing from his post was again declared a deserter- this time for failing to report to his U.S. base. {He
remains missing.)
One year ago: President-elect Barack Obama met
with congressional leaders, d~claring the national economy was ubad and getting worse" and predicting lawmakers would approve a mammoth revitalization package within two weeks of his taking office.
Thought for Today: "Wisdom is divided into two
parts: (a) having a great deal to say, and (b) not sayIng it." - Anonymous.

: Meigs County residents
qualifying for home loans
USDA commuted to future of rural communities
BY CHARLENE HOEFLICH
HOEFLICHCMYDAILYSENTINEL COM

POMEROY
Some Meigs County r~sidents may 4ualtfy for federal assistance with the purchase of a hom~.
according to Carol Costanzo. area director at the \1arietta
office, USDA Rural Developmental office.
"People who never thou~ht they could own a home now
have another opportunity,' said Costanto, explaining that
the home mortgages arc subsidized to lower the monthly
mortgage payments.
Over 350 homes were purchased in Ohio last year
through the Direct Loan program administered by Rural
Development. she said.
"T hese no downpayment loans can be used to purchase existing homes or to build new home:-." said
Costanzo va, ho went on to note that the program permits
loans for up to 100 percent of the home's appraised
value. T he loan's repayment feriod is 33 years at a
lower, new fixed interest rate o 4.875 percent. and subsidy amounts vary based on an applicant"s household
income. To qualify for a loan. the house must be located in an eligtble rural area.
• "This is great news for citizens of rural communities and
can make the American Dream of homeownership a reality," Costanzo said.
"We want people to know that the interest rate on a Rural
Development loan is fixed for the life of the loan. For those
who qualify, we can reduce their payment even further. to
as low as 1 perc~nt, based on the level of household
income. However, there is great security in knowing that it
can never exceed the fixed rate."
In addition, applicants must have maintained a satisfactory credit history. have a stable source of income and meet
repayment guidelines, along with other eligibility criteria,
sard Cosstanz. noting that income limits according to fam~
ily size and county of residence. She said application~ can
be obtained by contacting the Marietta office .,.,.hich serves
18 Southeastern Ohio counties offering housing programs
as well as a br?ad range of communit) and economic
development options.

Postseason hopes dashed with sanctions at USC
LOS ANGELES (AP) Dwight
Lewis,
Mike
Gerrity. Alex Stepheson and
the
rest of Southern
California's basketball team
couldn't figure out why they
were being summoned to an
early morning meeting with
first-year coach
Kevin
O'Neill.
When their cell phones lit
up with text messages
telling them to report to
Galen Center on Sunday an off day - the players
figured one of them had gotten in trouble or said the
wrong thing to the media.
The news O'Neill delivered was much worse.
He told them the university had imposed sanctions on
the team for recruiting violations involving former
player O.J. Mayo. including
a ban on postseason play including the Pac-10 tournament - this season. Mayo
allegedly received improper
cash and gifts while at USC.
"It was the hardest thing
I' ve had to do. Telling our
team that yesterday was
much harder than ever getting fired," O'Neill said
after practice Monday.
"It's a kick in the butt for
everybody. but I especially
fee l sorry for our seniors."
They are starters Getrity.
at his third school since
2005; Marcus Johnson, a
transfer from Connecticut;
and Dwight Lewis, a rare
fourth-year player who was
a teammate of Mayo's in
2007-08 when the Trojans
won 2 l games. Those victories will be vacated under
the sanctions.
"It is bittersweet because
when I decided to come here
I knew that I'd have the

chance to play in March and
that was something I hadn't
done in my first four years
of college." said Gerrity,
whose career includes stints
at Pepperdine and Charlotte.
Under Tim Floyd. the
Trojans made three consecutive NCAA tournament
appearances and had three
straight 20-win seasons at a
school best known for its
national championship-caliber football teams.
USC's self-imposed punishment comes at the same
time the school faces allegations that current football
player Joe McKnight and
former Heisman Trophy
winner Reggie Bush accepted improper benefits.
The NCAA is investigating the allegations involving
Mayo and Bush.
O'Neill dismissed suggestions the basketball program
is being sacrificed to preserve coach Pete Carroll's
football program.
''Th1s whole notion about
how we're supposed to be
getting a penalty to help
football out is ludicrous," he
said. "I don't buy that at all.
We're being punished for
whatever happened here
before.''
The school cited Mayo's
involvement with Rodney
Guillory.
whom
under
NCAA rules became a USC
booster due to his role in
Mayo's recruitment, in meting out the sanctions.
Floyd abruptly quit in
June following allegations
that he gave $1 ,000 in cash
to Guillory, who helped
steer Mayo to the Trojans.
Louis Johnson, a former
associate of Mayo and
Guillory. has previously

Browns

Mangini. the former New
York Jets coach who is trying to avoid joining Ray
Rhodes
(Philadelphia,
1998; Green Bay, 1999) as
the on! y head coaches to get
fired in consecutive full seasons by two different teams.
Mangini said there is not
a scenario b) which he
would not want to coach in
Cleveland.
"! love the Browns." he
said. "I didn'tcome here for
one year.''
Harrison's
emergence
was one of many surprises
for the Browns down the
stretch. He made the most
of his opportunity after
Jamal Lewis sustained a
season-ending injury and·
capped his three-week
breakout by rushing for 561
yards on 106 canies.
His 6-yard TD run on 4thand- I with 4:03 left in the
third quarter put the Browns
ahead 20-3.
The Jaguars pulled within
20-10 on David Garrard's 6yard TD pass to tight end
Zach Miller with 10:30 left.
But Browns quarterback
Derek Anderson, who only
attempted 11 passes. took
the Browns on a 14-play
drive that devoured more
than eight minutes. Phil
Dawson capped it with a
33-yard field goal to make it
23-10
Garrard found Miller
again on a 15-yard TD on
the final play.
Following
Anderson's
interception on a ball
knocked down by the wind,
the Browns turned to their
running game - they finished with 214 yards rush-

from Page Bl
to get that group of guys
that you want on your team
that's going to fight hard.
"He is SUITOUnding this
football team with hungry
players that want to fight no
matter their contracts, no
matter the score."
While the Browns ended
their season on a high, they
extinguished Jacksonville's
razor-thin AFC playoff
hopes. The Jaguars (7-9)
had to win and needed four
other teams to lose just to
qualify. They'll have the
months ahead to ponder
what went wrong.
Play ing on a slippery.
sno w-covered field, the
Florida visitors were mostly
out of their element and lost
their fourth in a row. Coach
Jack Del Rio had his team
poised for a playoff appearance , and although he has
come under fire for the
Jags' slump, he is expected
back.
''I'm not pleased with not
finishing with an opportunity to make the playoffs."
Del Rio said. "In the end,
we came up short so I am
disappointed. I would like
to find a way to get in there
(postseason.)"
Cleveland's four-game
winning streak - the club's
longest since its expansion
rebirth - was bookended
with
victories
over
Pittsburgh and Jacksonville,
two quality teams that add
credence to the Browns'
late-season surge under

alleged Guillory received
hundreds of thousands of
dollars from a sports agenc)
that he partially funneled to
Mayo.
Floyd is an assistant with
the New Orleans Hornets.
who were in Utah on
Monday night for a game
against the Jazz. He wasn't
available before the game
and didn't immediately
respond to a request for
comment made through a
team official.
USC will return to the
NCAA the money
it
received through the Pac-10
for playing in the 2008
NCAA tournament, when
the Trojans lost in the first
round.
The Trojans will also lose
one scholarship for this season and next; lose one coach
to off-campus recruiting this
summer; and lose 20
recruiting days for next season.
O'Neill and a majority of
the current players weren't
around when the violations
occurred, but they will pay.
"It's an unfair situation
and it's real unfortunate:·
said Stepheson , a transfer
from Not1h Carolina. 'Tm a
little down, a little devastated about it. It's a tough hand
that we're dealt and there's
nothing we can do about it.''
Lewis said he has no
regrets about Mayo's oneand-done stint at USC.
Mayo now plays for the
Memphis Grizzlies.
"Having him here, it was
worth it to me and what he
brought to the school. I
wouldn't change any of
that," Lewis said. "He
taught me a lot. It was worth
it."

The punishment couldn't
have come at a worse time.
The Trojans swept the
Arit.ona schools last weekend to open Pac-1 0 play tied
with Oregon for first place
with a 2-0 record, their best
start since 2002. Since big
losses at Texas and Georgia
Tech. they are on an eightgame winning streak including an upset of thenNo. 9 Tennessee .
"It hurt," Lewis said. "It
was hard at first hearing the
news. I really didn't believe
it. I thought it was a joke.
Coming back and being
around the guys · today is
kind of lifting my spirits."
The Trojans' season and
the seniors· careers end
March 6 in Tucson, Ariz.,
with their final Pac-10 game
against Arizona.
They won't defend their
title in the Pac-1 0 tournament - the first time they
won it was last season - at
Staples Center on March I 013.
The only thing left to play
for is the regular-season
conference title, something
USC has never won.
"Our motivation is come
out and play our hardest and
now just try to win every
game and finish our season
strong,'' Lewis said.
O'Neill said he wolTies
more about the distractions
created by the current sanctions than any future punishment the NCAA might
hand down. If it happens, he
dreads calling another team
meeting.
"I hope I don't ever have
to do that again," he said,
''because when you break
young people's dreams and
hearts, that's hard to do."

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tue;&amp;\, Jan. 5, 2010:
This year, events encourage you to let go and ~
the big picture. Instead of a situation bemg right or
wrong, look at it as chan~eable. Sometimes the resolu·
tion '"'ill be quite dynarmc. The unexpected runs
through your day-to-day life. f':ote if there is a theme
that tells you that you can no longt&gt;r depend on the sta·
tus quo. If you are single,) ou muld meet ~m1eone out
of the blue. Don't anticipate that this rel.lbon...hip will
be long-term. ]ust enjoy getting to know the pei'Orl. If
vou are attached, neither of you c.1n mmplain about
boredom. Howe\·er, a little more stabilil) and mutual1
ty rould evolve if you let go of tht&gt; ~latus quo. Learn to
tlow. VIRGO pushes you to look at &lt;.itu.Jlion:; differently.

Bengals embarrassed heading to playoffs
CINCIN~ ~TI (AP)
How bad was tt? The Bengab
are apologizing.
A national televi~ion audience watched the Bengab
give one of the most inept
performances in their histot)'
on Sunday mght.lo~ing to the
New York Jets 37-0 in the
final regular-season game.
They've got five days to get
over it and get ready for a
playoff rematch.
There will be plenty of
soul-searching this week for a
team that looked like it doc~­
n't belong in the playoffs.
The Jets (9-7) come to
Cincinnati ( 10-6) for a firstround playoff game on
Saturday. looking for a
repeat.
The Bengal'&gt; played so
poorly that recetver Chad
Ochocinco. who failed to
catch a pass for the first time
since 2002. tweeted an apology on Monda} morning.
