Gary Smiga. the schools superintendent in Centel"'ille near Dayton. says his dislrict would need 15 additional ·classrooms and 1,5 more teachers if Slrickland's proposal became reality. .

"You· d have a pretty good ongoing o,-ost of probably u million dollars a year:· Smiga said. "Where would those ·funds come from and how much of the funding would be the state's responsibility"!" Centerville's district gets about 15 percent of everyday education costs frOm the state, Smiga said.

Strickland has so far said little aboui how his education plans would be funded. leaving the details for when he unveils his two-year budget proposal on Monday.

"There will be tlexibility.'' she said. · So far, there are few other details about the changing school calendar ·and how much it will cost to pay teachers and operate buildings over four additional weeks.

Tal Strid.land's proposaltocn:ate all-day ~indergarten classes has some already cashstrapped school districts worrial that the added cost will funher strain budget>. Gary Smiga. the schools superintendent in Centel"'ille near Dayton. says his dislrict would need 15 additional ·classrooms and 1,5 more teachers if Slrickland's proposal became reality. . Just building the extra classrooms would cost about $1 million. and support stilfL maintenance and other operating dpenses will add more to annual eXPfnses, he said. "You· d have a pretty good ongoing o,-ost of probably u million dollars a year:· Smiga said. "Where would those ·funds come from and how much of the funding would be the state's responsibility"!" Centerville's district gets about 15 percent of everyday education costs frOm the state, Smiga said. But if all-day kindergarten is implemented. and that funding ratio remains. then the local community will be stuck with most of the additional,·ost. he said. Strickland has said he 'II increase education funding over ·the next two years by $925 million. and expanding all-day kinde~arten to every Ohio school district is a key component or his long-term education plan. The Ohio Department of Education says 448 of the . state's 613 districts already have aU-day kindergarten. which is mand;llory for districts that get poverty-based assistant·e from the state. Strickland has so far said little aboui how his education plans would be funded. leaving the details for when he unveils his two-year budget proposal on Monday. While the governor's kindergarten proposal is a good educational idea. it's also a logistical nightmare that would double salary costs for kindergarten teachers and require curriculum chang¢s. said David Baker. the superintendent of the Springboro schools district south of Dayton. . ''Some of the things you're going to be ~overing are currently being covered in first grade,'' he said. "So then the first grade would need to change their curriculum and so would the second grade, and on and on." Longer school year worries Ohio's tourism industry.

"For us tourism is a major economic factor. not just in the county but in our region." Tourism has been a growth industry too. generating $38 billion for Ohio in 2007. That's up by $10 billion since 2003. Strickland's goal of adding 20 days to the school year is just one piece of his plan to overhaul Ohio's public schools and increase learning in the classroom. School districts wiU be able to determine when to add the extra days that will be phased in over the next decade. said Amanda Wurst. a spokeswoman for the governor. "There will be tlexibility.'' she said. · So far, there are few other details about the changing school calendar ·and how much it will cost to pay teachers and operate buildings over four additional weeks. What's certain is that travel industry leaders will try to convince legislative leaders that cutting the summer short will hurt businesses that produce about $2.5 billion in annual tax revenue for state ·and local governments. · "We're not a sunbelt state. Families have a limited win. dow to travel." said John Hildebrandt. general manager of Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky. He expects the tourism industry to be united on the issue. Cedar Point and others already had been pushing the state to delay the start of school until after Labor Day to help tourism create more jobs.

"We'd like to see a compromise," he said. · Teens. teachers and college students who depend on summer tourism jobs would take a financial hit too. he said. · It's not just tourism operators that are concerned. Marcia Helman. who owns two icc cream shops in Toledo. said she'd feel an impact also . "Once school starts. business drops no matter whether it's warm on not,'' she said. · · Places that have built their economy around tourism say · they have the most to lose if the school year begins in early August or ends in late June. · "I don'tthink I'm exaggerating when I say it would kill the town,'' said Don Woodward. a Geneva-on -the, Lake businessman who operates a winery. water slide and entertainment center with mini<•ture ~olf <md bumper boats. . The town that sits <\long Lake Erie in the northeast i:orner of the state is a throwback to an era when people spent summers ·staying at quaint cottages and swimming ·at beaches: . He said what people forget is that tourism goes beyond amusement parks nnd museu.ms. "It's mom and pop i:anoe liveries. t•ampgrounds and little groceries." he said. "All those things are greatly impai:ted." Much of the tourist season on South Bass bland in Lake Erie lasts only about 10 weeks, said Put-in-Bay Mayor Mack McCann.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) - Rafael Nadal held off Roger Federer in another momentum-swinging five-set final to win the Australian Open, keeping the Grand Slam singles record safe for now. After comin~ through the longest match m the tournament's history to reach the championship match, Nadal needed 4 hours. 23 minutes Sunday to win 7-5, 3-6, 7-6 (3), 3-6,6-2. Federer, who was trying to equal Pete Sampras' record 14 major titles, has now lost to Nadal the last three times they've met in Grand Slam finals. The 22-year-old Nadal, who has four consecutive titles on clay at Roland Garros and beat Federer on grass in a five-set epic at Wimbledon last year, became the first Spaniard to win the Australian title. He has won five of the seven Grand Slam finals he's played against Federer and is 13-6 overall against the 27-year-old from Swiss star. Nadal beat Federer in the last French Open and Wimbledon finals and replaced him at No. 1 last August after winning the .gold medal at the Beijing Olympics .

He made four receptions on that series on which Warner hit all eight passes for all the yards. And then he struck swiftly for the 64-yarder that put Arizona within minutes of a remarkable victory. A victory that dido 't happen because the Steelers are as resilient as they come. Pittsburgh looked like the offensive juggernaut to open the game. smoothly driving 71 yards in eight plays . But the 72nd yard that would have given the Steelers a touchdown never came. It seemingly had when Roethlisberger's short run was ruled a TD.

After forcing a punt. the Steelers kept the ball the remainder of the first quarter - 11:28 in all. outgaining Arizona 140-13. getting seven first downs to one for the Cardinals. As Warner and the usually potent Cardinals' offense watched, frustrated. from the sideline, Pittsburgh plowed it in on Gary Russell's !-yard run to make it 10-0.

William Buford added 24 points for the Buckeyes ( 155, 5-4), who won for only the sixth time in 35 tries at Assembly Hall and posted their first . regular-season sweep of the Hoosiers in a decade. Cooch Thad Matta is now 50-25 in Big Ten games. becoming the second fastest in school history to reach 50 conference wms. Former Buckeyes coach Fred Taylor did it in 61 games. Freshman Matt Roth led the Hoosiers (5-15. 0-8) with 29 points, making nine 3s to tie a single-game school record. but it wasn't eriough to avoid matching the worst losing streak in school history. Indiana's II straight losses is its worst skid since 194344. fromPageBl "Great players step up in big-time games ,to make plays," Holmes said. "I kind of -lost a little composure. you know, but I knew our defense would give us a chance to make it back ." The stunning swings overshadowed James Harrison '.s record 100-yard interception return for a touchdown to end the first half. That looked like the signature play until the final quarter. when both teams shook off apparent knockout punches to. throw haymakers of their own. Big Ben and Holmes struck the last blow. and when Warner fumbled in the final seconds, the Cardinals' dream of winning their first NFL crown since 1947 were gone. "I said it's now or never, I told the guys all the film study you pl,lt in doesn't matter unless you do it now," Roethlisberger said. "I'm really proud of the way they responded." The Cardinals ( 12-8-1), playing in their first Super Bowl and first championship game of any kind since 1948, lost their composure after Harrison's heroics.

Wilson and the Titans' Bud Adams are the only original AFL members who still own their franchises. Their teams will meet in the Hall of Fame game the day after the inductions. . . Wilson has steadfastly kept his t~;am in a small market while other owners bolted for the bright lighis and big bucks of mega stadiums. He drew . the biggest ovation at the announcement and mentioned that he'd seen every hall enshrinee perform at some point. "Pro football to me is not about making money.

The Al!fPro who already had set a postseason record for yards receiving and had five touchdowns in the play. otis was a nonentity until an 87-yard fourth-quarter drive he capped with a leaping !yard catch over Ike Taylor. He made four receptions on that series on which Warner hit all eight passes for all the yards. And then he struck swiftly for the 64-yarder that put Arizona within minutes of a remarkable victory. A victory that dido 't happen because the Steelers are as resilient as they come. Pittsburgh looked like the offensive juggernaut to open the game. smoothly driving 71 yards in eight plays . But the 72nd yard that would have given the Steelers a touchdown never came. It seemingly had when Roethlisberger's short run was ruled a TD. Arizona coach Ken Whisenhunt challenged. and the score was overturned, leaving. Tomlin his first difficult decision. He took the points, Reed's 18-yard field goal, the shortest in a Super Bowl sinde 1976. After forcing a punt. the Steelers kept the ball the remainder of the first quarter - 11:28 in all. outgaining Arizona 140-13. getting seven first downs to one for the Cardinals. As Warner and the usually potent Cardinals' offense watched, frustrated. from the sideline, Pittsburgh plowed it in on Gary Russell's !-yard run to make it 10-0. When Arizona finally got the ball back. it suddenly put the Steelers off-balance with short passes - and one huge play. Warner had enough time to shine the NFL Man of the Year trophy he received just before kickoff. then hit Anquan Boldin streaking from left to right. He was upended at the Pittsburgh I, and Warner 's lob to Ben Patrick got Arizona on the board. It was the tight end's first touchdown this season . Arizona's defense then emulated the Steel Curtain with a big play. Bryan Robinson tipped Roethlisberger 's pass high into the air ·and Karlos Dansby corralled it at the Pittsburgh 34.
