Radio personal ity Don lmus. left. and Rev. AI Sharpton appear face-to-fa ce on Rev.
Sharpton's radio show. in New York Monday. lmus issued another apology' for referring to the
Rutgers women's basketball team as "nappy-headed hos" o~ his morn ing show last wee_k.
and referred to Sen. Ben
Nighthorse · Campbell of
Colorado, an American
Indian, as ·'the guy from 'F
Troop."' He and his wlleagues also called the New
Yor~ Knicks a ·group of
"chest-thumping pimps."
On Sharpton 's program
Monday. lmus said that "our
agenda is to be funny and
~ometime s we go too far.
And this time we went way
too far."
lmus made his remark the
day after the Rutgers team.
which includes eight black
women. lost the NCAA
women 's
championship
game to Tennessee. He was
speaking with producer
Bernard McGuirk and said
"that's some rough girls from
Rutgers. Man. they got tattoos ..."
·
"Some hard core hos,"
McGuirk said.
"That's some nappy-headed hos there, I' m going to tell
you that," lmus said.
The Rutgers comment has
struck a chord, in part,
because it was aimed at a
group of young women at the
pinnacle of athletic success.
It also came in a different
public atmosphere following
the Michael Richards and
Mel Gibson comments, said
Eric Deggans, columnist for
the St. Petersbt1rg Times and
chairman of the media moni- ·
turing committee of the
National Association of

Biack Journ alists. The
NABJ's governing board.

wants . lmus
canned.
"This may be the first time
where he ·s done something
like thi s in tne YouTube era,"
Deggans said. Viewers can
quickly see clips of lmus'
remarks, not allowing him to
redefine their context , he
said ..
On his show Monday,
lmus called himself "a good
person" who made a bad
mistake.
"Here's what I've learned:
that you can 't make fun of
everybody, because some
people don't deserve it," he
said. "And because the climate on this program has
been what it's been for 30
years doesn 't mean that it has
to be that way for the next
five years or whatever
because that has to change,
and I understand that."
New Jersey Gov. Jon S.
Corzine spoke to Rutgers
players Monday and said
later that he strongly condemned lmus' words. Only
the Rutgers players can
decide to accept his apology,
Corzine said ..
Rutgers players said they
planned to make a public
statement on Tuesday.

enforcement while.seeking

Bv DAVID BAUDER
NEW YORK Don
lmus' morning talk show
will be suspended from CBS
Radio and MSNBC for two
weeks following protests
about his reference to members of the Rutgers women "s
basketball team as "nappyheaded has," both networks
said Monday
MSNBC which telecasts
the radio show. said lmus·
expressions of regret and
embarrassment.
coupled
with his stated dedication to
changing the show 's di scourse, made it believe suspension was the appropriate
response.
"Our future relationship
with Imus is conlingent on
his ability to live up to his
word." the network said.
The suspension begins
next Monday.
Imus, who has mac,le a
career of cranky insults in the
morning, was fighting for his
fob following the joke that by
his own admission · went
"way too far." He continued
to apologize Monday, both
on-his show and on a syndicated radio program hosted
by the Rev. AI Sharpton, who
is among several black leaderS demanding his ouster.
The Rev. Jesse Jackson
said that lmus' suspensions
would not halt the protests.
"This is a two-week cooling off period," Jackson said.
"It does not challenge the
character of the show, its
political . impact, or the
tmpact that these comments
have had on our society."
lmus could be in real dan ger if the outcry causes
advertisers to shy away fr01h
him, said Tom Taylor, editor ·
of the trade publication
Inside Radio. The National
. Organization for Women is
also seeking Imus' ouster.
lmus. isn't the most popular radio talk-show host the trade publication Talkers
ranks him the 14th most
influential - but his audience is heavy on the political
and media elite that advertisers pay a premium to reach ..
Authors, journalists and
politiCians are frequent
guests - and targets for
insults.
He has urged critics.to recognize that his show is a
comedy that spreads insults
broadly. Imus or his cast
have called Colin Powell a
"wea~el," New Mexico Gov.
Bill Richardson a "faf sissy"

PageA2

said he would still appear on
lmus· program.
"He has apologized,"
McCain said. "He said that
he is deeply sorry. I'm a great
believer in redemption.''
Baseball star Cal Ripken
Jr., who was to appear on
lmus: show later this week to
promote a book, has canceled his appearance, accord. ing to the W3shington Times.
lmus' radio show originates from WFAN in New
York City and is syndicated
nationally by Westwood
One, both of which are managed by CBS . The show
reached
an
estimated ·
361 .000 viewers on MSNBC
in the first three months of
th e year. up 39 percent from
last year. That's the best
competitive position it has
ever achieved against CNN
(372,000 viewers).

YUMA. Ariz. - President

His message - particularly

Secretary Michae l Chenoff
and Commerce ·Secretary ·
Carlos Gutierrez have been
meeting privately for weeks
with Republican senators in
search of compromise. That
expanded to a meeting in late
March with key senators from
both parties. The administration floated a proposal that
would make it harder for millions of illegal iinmignmts to
gain citize nship than under
legislation passed by the
Senate last year.
Bush stopped here on the
way back to Wa~hington from
an E:Ner holiday at hi~ Texas
ranch. He climbed in the back
of a pickup truck at a National
Guard observation post to see
how a portable scope tracks
people charging across the
border at mght. Then, his
moto·rcade barreled along a
rocky, dusty road between two
new walls of fencing protecting the U.S. border.
Bush watched a rig plow
holes in the ground to prepare
for more fencing, steel-winged ·
at the bonum to make it harder for illegal immigrants to
tunnel underneath it.
Contending that tougher
enforcement is paying off,
Bush said: ''The number of
people apprehended lilr illeg;Jlly crossing our southern
border is down by nearly 30
percent this year. We're making progress."

LONDON . - Britain 's
government beat a hasty
retreat Monday under withering criticism for allowing
sailors and marines to be
paid large sums for their
stories about captivity in
Iran.
Officials banned further
paid interviews as critics
complained that the fees,
reponedly as high as six figures, were unseemly and a
slap at families of military
petsonnel killed in.lraq and
Afghanistan.
The appearance of the
first paid interviews also
brought new criticism that
the I5 crew members yielded too easily to Iranian pressure to make confessions
and apologies. Some worried 'the crew 's actions
revealed a loss of Britain 's
. famed -"stiff upper lip" in
: tough times.
"The sailors and marines
held in Iran have been so
compliant and have already
said .so much that they have
caused ·excruciating embarrassment to many peopl_e in
· this country._ " a retired
· colohel, Bob Stewart. wrote
in The Times newspaper.
Defense Secretary Des
Browne said that pending
completion of a review of
the regulations governin g
paid interviews, announced
earlier in the day, all service
personnel were now barred

from accepting fees for talking about their military
expenences.
The announcement does
not affect any of the freed
crew members who already
accepted fees for talking to
JOurnal isu;, but bars them
and all other service members from !)laking new deals
wi th media outlets. the
Defense Ministry said. Two
such interviews appeared
Monday, but it was
unknown if others had
already sold their stories.
Browne acknowledged
"many strong views" had
been expressed against the
idea of military personnel
taking cash to give exclusive stories to the media.
Such fees are a long media
practice in Britain, though
more usually for stories
involving sex ual car.crs and
lurid crimes.
The fi rs t paid interviews
appeared Monday in The
Sun mid the Daily Mirror
newspapers. with The Sun
baggin g the most soughtafter sailor, Faye Turney, the
onl y woman among the capti ves. Financial terms were
not di sclosed. but other
media reported the amount
paid was in the six fi gures.
The stories came out a
day after Iranian state television sought to counter
claims from the crew that
they were mi streated during
13 days in custody. It broadcast a video showin'g the
ca ptives smiling and laugh-

Rutgers women's basketball team as "nappy-headed hos" o~ his morn ing show last wee_k.
and referred to Sen. Ben
Nighthorse · Campbell of
Colorado, an American
Indian, as ·'the guy from 'F

"chest-thumping pimps."
On Sharpton 's program
Monday. lmus said that "our
agenda is to be funny and
~ometime s we go too far.
And this time we went way
too far."
lmus made his remark the
day after the Rutgers team.
which includes eight black
women. lost the NCAA
women 's
championship
game to Tennessee. He was
speaking with producer
Bernard McGuirk and said
"that's some rough girls from
Rutgers. Man. they got tattoos ..."
·
"Some hard core hos,"
McGuirk said.
"That's some nappy-headed hos there, I' m going to tell
you that," lmus said.
The Rutgers comment has
struck a chord, in part,
because it was aimed at a
group of young women at the
pinnacle of athletic success.
It also came in a different
public atmosphere following
the Michael Richards and
Mel Gibson comments, said

"This may be the first time
where he ·s done something
like thi s in tne YouTube era,"
Deggans said. Viewers can
quickly see clips of lmus'
remarks, not allowing him to
redefine their context , he
said ..
On his show Monday,
lmus called himself "a good
person" who made a bad
mistake.
"Here's what I've learned:
that you can 't make fun of
everybody, because some
people don't deserve it," he
said. "And because the climate on this program has
been what it's been for 30
years doesn 't mean that it has
to be that way for the next
five years or whatever
because that has to change,
and I understand that."
New Jersey Gov. Jon S.

NEW YORK Don
lmus' morning talk show

coupled
with his stated dedication to
changing the show 's di scourse, made it believe suspension was the appropriate
response.
"Our future relationship
with Imus is conlingent on
his ability to live up to his
word." the network said.
The suspension begins
next Monday.
Imus, who has mac,le a
career of cranky insults in the
morning, was fighting for his
fob following the joke that by
his own admission · went
"way too far." He continued
to apologize Monday, both
on-his show and on a syndicated radio program hosted
by the Rev. AI Sharpton, who
is among several black leaderS demanding his ouster.
The Rev. Jesse Jackson
said that lmus' suspensions
would not halt the protests.
"This is a two-week cooling off period," Jackson said.
"It does not challenge the
character of the show, its
political . impact, or the
tmpact that these comments
have had on our society."
lmus could be in real dan ger if the outcry causes
advertisers to shy away fr01h

of the trade publication

lmus. isn't the most popular radio talk-show host the trade publication Talkers
ranks him the 14th most
influential - but his audience is heavy on the political
and media elite that advertisers pay a premium to reach ..
Authors, journalists and

guests - and targets for

He has urged critics.to recognize that his show is a
comedy that spreads insults
broadly. Imus or his cast

said he would still appear on
lmus· program.
"He has apologized,"
McCain said. "He said that
he is deeply sorry. I'm a great
believer in redemption.''
Baseball star Cal Ripken
Jr., who was to appear on
lmus: show later this week to
promote a book, has canceled his appearance, accord. ing to the W3shington Times.
lmus' radio show originates from WFAN in New
York City and is syndicated
nationally by Westwood
One, both of which are managed by CBS . The show
reached
an
estimated ·
361 .000 viewers on MSNBC
in the first three months of

last year. That's the best
competitive position it has
ever achieved against CNN

YUMA. Ariz. - President

: tough times.
"The sailors and marines
held in Iran have been so
compliant and have already
said .so much that they have
caused ·excruciating embarrassment to many peopl_e in
· this country._ " a retired
· colohel, Bob Stewart. wrote
in The Times newspaper.
Defense Secretary Des
Browne said that pending
completion of a review of
the regulations governin g
paid interviews, announced
earlier in the day, all service
personnel were now barred

from accepting fees for talking about their military
expenences.
The announcement does
not affect any of the freed
crew members who already
accepted fees for talking to
JOurnal isu;, but bars them
and all other service members from !)laking new deals
wi th media outlets. the
Defense Ministry said. Two
such interviews appeared
Monday, but it was
unknown if others had
already sold their stories.
Browne acknowledged
"many strong views" had
been expressed against the
idea of military personnel
taking cash to give exclusive stories to the media.
Such fees are a long media
practice in Britain, though
more usually for stories
involving sex ual car.crs and
lurid crimes.
The fi rs t paid interviews
appeared Monday in The
Sun mid the Daily Mirror
newspapers. with The Sun
baggin g the most soughtafter sailor, Faye Turney, the
onl y woman among the capti ves. Financial terms were
not di sclosed. but other
media reported the amount
paid was in the six fi gures.
The stories came out a
day after Iranian state television sought to counter
claims from the crew that
they were mi streated during
13 days in custody. It broadcast a video showin'g the

Thought for Today: "To understand another iluman being
;you must gain some insight into the conditions which made
him what he is."- Margaret Bourke-White, American photojournalist (1904-1971 ).

In light of current
goings-on, it ' s almost
laughable and also
dispiriting - to rec~ll
how President Bush and
incoming ·
Democratic
Congressional
leaders
vowed just months ago to
heed the voters' 2006 call
for bipartisan cooperation.
In hi s State of the Union
address, Bush said - can
anyone remember this? that "our citizens don't
care which side of the
aisle we sit on, as long as
we are willing to cross
that aisle when there is
work to be done ."
And, in his final press
conference of 2006, he
said, "The American people are sick of partisanship
and .name- calling ." · We
heard the same sort of sentiments from Speaker
Nancy Pelosi , D-Calif. ,
and · Senate
Majority
Leader Harry Reid, DNev.
Well, look where we are
now.: Democra\s are using
Bush's firing of eight U.S .
attorneys to conduct a
scalp-hunting expedition
to oust Attorney General
Alberto Gonzales and. if
they can, cost Bush the
services of his top political aide, Karl Rove.
And, much worse, Bush
and
the
Democratic
Congress are playing a
game of chicken over Iraq
and Afghanistan war funding - with the lives of
American soldiefs potentially becoming collateral
damage.
Each side is betting it
can win the face-off that
will ensue when Bush
vetoes the filial war sup'
plemental because it contains either a "hard" or
"soft" deadline for withdrawal of American troops
from Iraq and billions in
extraneous
pork-barrel
spending.
On the merits, I think
Bush is absolutely right to
veto any bill that contains
a fixed timeline for troop
withdrawals, but he also
should be meeting on an
urgent
basis
with
Democrats to work out a
no-ti~eline bill (if he can)

instead of meeting only
with Republicans and
making defiant speeches.
Both sides are likening
the current conflict to or differentiating it from
- the 1995 budget faceoff between President Bill
Clinton
and
House
Speaker Newt Gingrich,
R-Ga., which led to two
government
shutdowns
and which Clinton indubitably won.
Though -badly battered
in the 1994 Congressional
elections, Clinton had
recouped during 1995 to a
Gallup approval rating of
53 percent as he &lt;lueled
with Gingrich 's new GOP
majority in Congress. In
November, Clinton vetoed
a GOP funding bill that
contained cuts in the
growth of Medicare, triggering the governmentwide shutdowns.
In the memory of one
current House GOP leader
who lived through those
times, "We resurrected
Bill Clinton. I think
President ·Bush has an
opportunity to do the same
for himself if he stands up
and fights over the issue
of winning in Iraq and
bringing some fiscal discipline to this· place.
"It is a way for him to
win," he said. "And, of
course, it will help if the
Pentagon
moans and
groans
and
screams,
although tbey do have the
ability to move money
around at least until
Memorial Day or later."
In Republican thinking,
Bush - like Clinton in
1995 - has the presidential "bully pulpit," especially with Congress in
·recess, and can mount a
forceful public relations
campaign,
accusing
Democrats of overreach-

To me, it's clear that it's
not just politics. Bush has
perhaps until the end of
sum mer to wrest hi s Iraq
policy Jrom the jaws of
catastrophe, and he genuinely believes that se tting
)llithdrawal deadlines will
demoralize U.S . troops
and the Iraqi government
and encourage the enemy
to bide its time until the
Un ited States is gone.
And the Democrats
could overreach , especially if the party's left wing
·sees a stalemate on the
war-fundi.ng bill as an
opportunity to stop th e
war and if moderates let
their enmity for Bush and
hi s war policy dig them
into intransigence.
Secretary of Defense
Robert Gates has declared
that if funding isn't provided by May 15 , replacement force s for Iraq won ' t
be trained and equipped,
tours in Iraq will have to
be extended, and eq uipment needed there can't be
supplied.
Gates undoubtedly can
reprogram Pentagon funding to keep the troops sup"
plied .longer, but at some ·
point the .money will run
out. There needs to be a
deal. Arguably, Bush
could accept a nonbind ing, nonspecific statement
of goals for eventual U.S.
withdrawals
and
the
memorializing of hi s own
stated benchm arks for
progress in Iraq ..
Democrats have said
that they will supply
money for the troops and
their budget contains all
that Bush has asked for
and more . They've al so
appealed to Bush to talk
with them about compromises . What constitutes·
"pork" is a flexible matter
if there ever was one.
So it behooves both
sides to begin acting Iike

· stateswomen in this crucial matter and quit play-.
ing politics with the lives
of U.S. soldiers.
,....,.

ing, micromanaging U:S.
strategy in Iraq and validating their party's stereotypes for being weak on
national security and profligate in spending.
The White House will
use the argument - pe·tsuasive to me- that U.S.
troop commander Gen.
David Petraeus deserves a
chance to pacify Iraq ·with
hi s new counter-insurgency strategy, that there
actually are signs that it 's
th at

and
Democrats are guaranteeing defeat by insisting ?"

and setting dates for full

Democrats have a totally
different take .on the 1995

in an interview,, " Let 's.

· "Bill Clinton, the first
thing he did was say to the
Republicans, 'Come down
to the \Vhite House for a
meeting.' First thing that
Bush did was say, ' I' m
vetoing. I' m vetoing.'
What's more, Na1icy is at
52 percent approval while
Newt was at 50 percent
di~approval.

" If we overreach, that 's
one thing. But right now,
Bush is starting where
Gingrich was, and we are
starting whete Clinton
was." Emanuel would not
define "overreaching" or
predict what the endgame
he
would

denounced the president's

trials were unfair- under

Al-Bashir asks us to trust
to deal, on its own, with

defendants do not understand." (Their male partners will not b.e punished.)
Both women have confessed io adultery, buL it is
unclear how the confessions were obtained. The
two women, sentenced
last year, await the throttling · hand of Gen. AIBashir 's justice. Both
women, the su'dan Tribune
reported on March 15,
"are in bad condition and
are suffering psychologically due to the harsh
judgment
passed
on
them."
Where is the National

Where are such feminist

Are not the repeatedly

Or will there at least be
a vigil when these women
are dead at the hand of

out of the camp to collect
firewood. They believe,
they tell us, that if the men
went out they would be
killed, and that's why it's
the women who expose
themselves, and they get
raped.
·
"These women," Arbour
continued, "have children
from these rapes - children to whom they cannot
give a name becau se
they're the children of the
Janjaweed (rapists)."
The monstrous, murderous Arab Janjaweed are

Along with Sudanes·e
army soldiers and heli copters, the Janjaweed
have also killed many

African men in Darfur and
burned out the villages.
Children have also bee n
raped, and there have been

reports of children tossed
into the flames by laughing members of the
Janjaweed.
By now, there have been
many reports in the
American press on what
U.N. officials ritualistically - and accurately :_
describe as "the worst

Brian Steidle, a former

observer for the African

He tells of a 1-year-old,

been shot in the back as
her mother was runnin g

Thought for Today: "To understand another iluman being
;you must gain some insight into the conditions which made
him what he is."- Margaret Bourke-White, American photojournalist (1904-1971 ).

In light of current
goings-on, it ' s almost
laughable and also
dispiriting - to rec~ll
how President Bush and
incoming ·
Democratic
Congressional
leaders
vowed just months ago to
heed the voters' 2006 call
for bipartisan cooperation.
In hi s State of the Union
address, Bush said - can
anyone remember this? that "our citizens don't
care which side of the
aisle we sit on, as long as
we are willing to cross
that aisle when there is
work to be done ."
And, in his final press
conference of 2006, he
said, "The American people are sick of partisanship
and .name- calling ." · We
heard the same sort of sentiments from Speaker
Nancy Pelosi , D-Calif. ,
and · Senate
Majority
Leader Harry Reid, DNev.
Well, look where we are
now.: Democra\s are using
Bush's firing of eight U.S .
attorneys to conduct a
scalp-hunting expedition
to oust Attorney General
Alberto Gonzales and. if
they can, cost Bush the
services of his top political aide, Karl Rove.
And, much worse, Bush
and
the
Democratic
Congress are playing a
game of chicken over Iraq
and Afghanistan war funding - with the lives of
American soldiefs potentially becoming collateral
damage.
Each side is betting it
can win the face-off that
will ensue when Bush
vetoes the filial war sup'
plemental because it contains either a "hard" or
"soft" deadline for withdrawal of American troops
from Iraq and billions in
extraneous
pork-barrel
spending.
On the merits, I think
Bush is absolutely right to
veto any bill that contains
a fixed timeline for troop
withdrawals, but he also
should be meeting on an
urgent
basis
with
Democrats to work out a
no-ti~eline bill (if he can)

instead of meeting only
with Republicans and
making defiant speeches.
Both sides are likening
the current conflict to or differentiating it from
- the 1995 budget faceoff between President Bill
Clinton
and
House
Speaker Newt Gingrich,
R-Ga., which led to two
government
shutdowns
and which Clinton indubitably won.
Though -badly battered
in the 1994 Congressional
elections, Clinton had
recouped during 1995 to a
Gallup approval rating of
53 percent as he &lt;lueled
with Gingrich 's new GOP
majority in Congress. In
November, Clinton vetoed
a GOP funding bill that
contained cuts in the
growth of Medicare, triggering the governmentwide shutdowns.
In the memory of one
current House GOP leader
who lived through those
times, "We resurrected
Bill Clinton. I think
President ·Bush has an
opportunity to do the same
for himself if he stands up
and fights over the issue
of winning in Iraq and
bringing some fiscal discipline to this· place.
"It is a way for him to
win," he said. "And, of
course, it will help if the
Pentagon
moans and
groans
and
screams,
although tbey do have the
ability to move money
around at least until
Memorial Day or later."
In Republican thinking,
Bush - like Clinton in
1995 - has the presidential "bully pulpit," especially with Congress in
·recess, and can mount a
forceful public relations
campaign,
accusing
Democrats of overreach-

To me, it's clear that it's
not just politics. Bush has
perhaps until the end of
sum mer to wrest hi s Iraq
policy Jrom the jaws of

According
to
the
Associated Press (March
22), Faisal ai-Bagir of the
Khartoum-based Sudan
Organization
Against
Torture, says the women 's
trials were unfair- under
the justice system Gen.
Al-Bashir asks us to trust
to deal, on its own, with
crimes that might have
been committed in Darfur,
by forces other than his
"innocent" government.
"There were no defense
lawyers," explains Faisal
at,Bagir, "and the trial
in
proceedings
were
Arabic, a language the
defendants do not understand." (Their male partners will not b.e punished.)
Both women have confessed io adultery, buL it is
unclear how the confessions were obtained. The
two women, sentenced
last year, await the throttling · hand of Gen. AIBashir 's justice. Both
women, the su'dan Tribune
reported on March 15,
"are in bad condition and
are suffering psychologically due to the harsh
judgment
passed
on
them."
Where is the National
Organization for WomenJ
Where are such feminist
icons as Gloria Steinem?
Are not the repeatedly
brotally
raped
black

women of Darfur their sisters? Will American feminists not try to stop the
stoning to. death of
Saadiyah al-Fadel and
Umounab Daldou.m?
Or will there at least be
a vigil when these women
are dead at the hand of
Gen. AI-Bashir? Or do
most American males and
females not give a damn
about the walking-dead
survivors in Darfur - so
far away and so black?.
.
the
Meanwhile,
Associated Press reported
(March · 8) that U.N.
Human
Rights
head
Louise Arbour charged
that the mass rapes of
women in Darfur have not
abated. Ori lnter'national
Women's . Day in . The
Hague, Arbour noted that
Darfur women in refugee
camps "are forced to go
out of the camp to collect
firewood. They believe,
they tell us, that if the men
went out they would be
killed, and that's why it's
the women who expose
themselves, and they get
raped.
·
"These women," Arbour
continued, "have children
from these rapes - children to whom they cannot
give a name becau se
they're the children of the
Janjaweed (rapists)."
The monstrous, murderous Arab Janjaweed are
Gen. AI-Bashir's militia.
Along with Sudanes·e
army soldiers and heli copters, the Janjaweed
have also killed many
of
black
thou sands
African men in Darfur and
burned out the villages.
Children have also bee n
raped, and there have been

reports of children tossed
into the flames by laughing members of the
Janjaweed.
By now, there have been
many reports in the
American press on what
U.N. officials ritualistically - and accurately :_
describe as "the worst
humanitarian . crisis in the
world." In a newly
released book, "The Devil
Came on Horsebac k:
Bearing Witness to. the
Genocide
in
Darfur"
· (Public Affairs Books in
New York), co-author
Brian Steidle, a former
captain in the Marine·
Corps, details what he witnessed as a military
observer for the African
Union in Darfur.
,
He tells of a 1-year-old,
Mihad Hamid, who had
been shot in the back as
her mother was runnin g
from Government of
Sudan troops: "The child
, had gaping ~n try and exit
wounds that accentuated
her struggle to breathe."
· "The Devil Came on
. Horse back" ends with
question s: "W hat nation
can allow genocide'to continue? What person can
turn their hack on the victims of such hatred? When
th e genocide in DarfuJ has
ended, what will you say
you did to stop it?"

pleaded since the mid-1990s
to reverse the rising numbers
of young gunshot victims.

approval, he gets his chance.
as board chairman of a counteroffensive against street
violence that's different
from , anything tried here
before.
It's called CIRV
Cincinnati Initiative to
Reduce Violence - and one
novel feature is to call in the
street packs causing most of
the bloodshed and offer
them a blunt choice: Accept
a way out of the feud-like
shootings, and you ' ll get
help on the spot. But if you
persist in violence, we will
use every legal means,
includin¥ stiffer federal
prosecutiOn. to put your
group out of "business."
Similar "targeting strategies" in Boston, Chicago
and other cities have sharply
reduced youth homicides,

to shooters with one strong
moral voice - and backed it

to reverse the rising numbers

violence that's different
from , anything tried here

It's called CIRV

Reduce Violence - and one
novel feature is to call in the
street packs causing most of
the bloodshed and offer
them a blunt choice: Accept
a way out of the feud-like
shootings, and you ' ll get
help on the spot. But if you
persist in violence, we will
use every legal means,
includin¥ stiffer federal

Lady Tornadoes down·Eastern, 8-5
BY ScOTT WoLFE

RACINE Back-toback triples literally '!iced"
the game for the Southern
Tornadoes (3-5, 2-2) in their
exciting 8-5 come-frombehind victory over league
foe Eastern
Monday
night
at
Star Mill
Park.
"The key
to the win
was
the
back-toback triples

(Brickles)"
gleamed an
elated
Coach Alan
Crisp.
" T h a t
seemed ·to

(Eastern ' s)
back and
Boso
gave us the
momentum we needed. We
struggled early, but finished
the way you like to finish."
Indeed, Southern finished
strong on the flip side of
what seemed to be a disastrous start. Wolfe-Riffle led
Southern into the fifth
inning with a lead-off triple
down the line to left.
Trailing 5-4, Riffle tied the
game on a triple to rightcenter by Brickles. An error
allowed ·Stephanie Cundiff
to reach safely 3f\d brought
home Brickles with what
later proved to be the winning run, 6-5.
Just in case Southern
renewed its insurance policy with two more runs in the
frarrie . . · Chelsea Pape

second and first, and then
Amber Hill reached on a

then Lindsey Buzzard singled to bring. home the last

BATON ROUGE. La.
(AP)
Thousands of
mourners passed the open
casket of Eddie Robinson on
Monday in the Louisrana
Capitol, where the famed
Grambling State football
coach viewed the body of
slain political titan Huey
Long more than 70 years
ago.
Robinson, who endured
the indignities of the Jim
Crow era while building tiny
and predommantly black
Grambling into a football
power, died last week at 88.
His body was carried up a
long stretch of granite steps
by dozens of white-gloved
former players , including .
former Super Bowl MVP
Doug Wtlliams.

Robinson 's wife of 67 years:

Thousands of
mourners passed the open
casket of Eddie Robinson on
Monday in the Louisrana
Capitol, where the famed
Grambling State football
coach viewed the body of
slain political titan Huey
Long more than 70 years

Robinson, who endured
the indignities of the Jim
Crow era while building tiny
and predommantly black
Grambling into a football
power, died last week at 88.
His body was carried up a
long stretch of granite steps
by dozens of white-gloved

MIDDLEPORT - The Midclleport
Pool will open for the summer season,
but how long it stays open will depend
on how it performs financially.
Meeting
Monday
evening,
Middleport Village Council voted to
open the pool and keep it open as long
as funds !lllow. The village carried over
a $12,000 balance from last year's pool
fund, and will access $1,500 in contributions toward a skateboard park that
was never completed.
Pool Manager Dale Riffle said he
and Mayor Sandy Iannarelli have been
in contact with potential donors, and
will take on fundraising efforts to supplement the pool's operating fund.
"We. will seek . donations, and if

donations don't come in, we'll open
the pool and keep it open until the
money.runs out," Riffle said.
Riffle estimates that the village
needs another $8,000 to $10,000 to
operate the pool for the season, but
Ftscal Officer Susan Baker said
,Riftle's cost estimates are "extremely
low," and said it will probably take
more than $10,000 to make it through
the season, which will begin Memorial
Day and end in mid-August when the
Meigs County Fair begins.
Finance Committee Chairman
Ferman Moore said the village will not
have funds available to supplement the
pool's operation.
·
"Right now, we have no money to
operate the pop!," Moore said.
Last year, the villages of Middleport
and Syracuse received $40,000 in

RACINE - Residents
with property listed within
the blasting area proposed
on the mining permit by
Gatling Ohio, LLC received
something unusual recently,
free advice from an attorney.
Bill Price from the Sierra

Program
for
Central
Appalachia spoke to residents at the recent Meigs
Co~nty Community Action
Network meeting where he
told residents to take the
coal company up on their
offer of a pre-blast survey.
"It's a great idea if you
have the ri!sources to do an
independent pre-blast survey," Price said, citing some·
people don't have the $500600 to purchase one. If this
is the case Price added, "I
urge you to let the coal company do the pre-blast survey
on your terms. The survey is
about meetin g what you
need not what they need and
it's required by law that
they do .so."
