Astros defeat Pirates in Clemens' Spring debute BRADENTON, Ra. (AP) - Roger Clemens admitted he was nervous when he took the mound for his first spring stm1 for hometown team. Clemens, who ended a brief retirement to pitch a 21st season, gave up two runs and five hits in two innings in a 15-8 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. "I tried to get it under way. walk out to the mound and say, 'Here we go again,"' Clemens said. "It's kind of a surreal feeling where l can't believe I'm walking out to the mound again and getting ready for a long season." Clemens ( 1-0) struck out one, walked none and threw 39 pitches, one shy of his allotment. He got the win when the Astros scored five runs off Kip Wells in the third inning to take a 6-2 lead.

Clemens also helped himself out by picking Nunez off ftrst base after giving up a leadoff single in the first. · "! did a few things right," Clemens said. "My location was retty decent. I'm just trying to find out how much movement 've got and throw enough breaking balls to get that soreness in my elbow. The conditioning I did prior to my pitching made it feel like I was in the fourth or ftfth inning." : Clemens didn't come out of retirement and sign with the Astros until Jan. 12, but he doesn't think he's behind the other pitchers in camp. • "I don't feel like l have to play catch-up now," he said. "I'll continue to work each time out and gain a little arm strength." Nunez had singles off Clemens in the first and second innings. "If felt good to do it, especially against a guy like him," Nunez said. "He's a future Hall of Farner. Even though he's 41, he's still one of the ·good ones. He might not have had his best stuff, but he's still a competitive ~uy.

Trammell is upset about how the Detroit Tigers have started spring training coming otl their AL-record 119-loss season . "'I feel more impatient than I did last year at any time," said Trammell, after the Cleveland Indians beat Detroit 18-10 Sunday. "I expect us to be better. I don't expect us to be in midseason form, but I didn 't expect us to be this bad." Casey Blake and Corey Smith each hit grand slams, Ronnie Belliard hit a three-run homer and Travis Hafner added a solo home run for the Indians, who have scored 42 runs in their first three exhibition games. "We deserve what we got," Trammell said. Smith, a first-round pick in 2000, also hit a three-run homer in Cleveland's 6-2 win over Detroit in a " B" game Sunday morning. "I've got nothing but good things to say about him and the way he's working on the total game," Indians manager Eric Wedge said. "He's been doing it the right way." Detroit has not. Since the Tigers beat Montreal in t h e i r Grapefruit League opener. they have lost t h r e e s traight. They are also 0-3 in " B" games. Trammell knows some - or most - keeping an eye on the Tigers' start may believe they will be awful a¥ain, despite adding Ivan Rodnguez and six other major leaguers during the offseason. "I know what people are thinking and we have to take that," Trammell said. "The easy thing to do is to get upset, but I am. "Last year is over and I want to be better. I'm not so inclined to sit there and take it. .. Trammell said he may have a team meeting Tuesday, the day ·or Detroit's next home game.

(AP) - The A-Rod circus rolled jnto town, thrilling fans and leaving the Boston Red Sox with still another loss to the New York Yarikees . A sign-waving, sellout crowd watched the Yankees win 11-7 on Sunday, 4 1/2 inonths after they beat the Red Sox in their last meeting in Game 7 of the AL championship series. Commemorative pins for the game sold for $5 .67, one spectator wore a shirt that said, "I don't brake for Yankee fans," and lines outside the ballpark were long !)ours before gametime. Alex Rodriguez had little impact on the much hyped spring training game - . a groundout and an infield single a~ainst the team he nearly jomed in December. "They're fun. They're easy to get up for," Rodriguez said of games between the rivals. "We look forward to an unbelievable summer." : Nomar Garciaparra had no impact on the game at all, diminishing the drama by skippins the game with a minor mjury to his right Achilles' tendon that should sideline him for one more .

POMEROY - Breaking u 3-3 tie between Pomeroy Village Council members at Monday 's meeting , Muyor John Mus ser voted to give the new Assistant Police Chief Joe Kirby Jr. , a 50 cent pay raise and upgrade his health insurance to family coverage. "I am glad he got his raise," said Musser. "I am pl~ased that we can maintain the services of such a fine young officer. He will probably be with us for several more years now." In the weeks preceding this vote, council members fought back and forth against raising Kirby 's pay and upgrading his insurance citing cost concerns and fairness to other assistant department heads. At the final required reading of the ordi nance in February, council members voted 4-2 against the raise and insurance upgrade. Council President George Wright, who had previously voted against the ordinance at the last reading to allow council more time to study its options, changed his vote Monday which allowed the ordinance to be reconsidered. but created an even split on council. Council members Jim Sisson. Jackie Welker and Wright voted for the ordinance while council members Ruth Spaun, Todd Norton and Mary McAngus voted against it. Pomeroy Police · Chief Mark E. Proffitt pniiscd council's decision and said Kirby was very deserving . "He is a very valuable member of the staff and has helped make Pomeroy safer as a result of his expertise," he said.

Chest freezers are more economical to operate because cold air stays near lhe bottom. They also hold more food . A wellstocked freezer is less expensive to operate than one that is half-full because the volume of frozen food reduces the amount of energy needed to keep the food cold.

Scientists line up to support, oppose evolution lesson plan : COLUMBUS (AP) Scientists are lobbying the i;tate school board over its !Jlanned vote Tuesday on new science lesson plans including the teaching of evolution. Some are for the i;tandards, many are against. : The board was scheduled Jo give final approval to a :IOth-grade lesson plan, ·:Critical Analysis of Evolution," a 22-page purlion of a 547-page science lesson plan for all grades. • The Ohio Academy of Science says the lesson plans 1nclude anti-evolution posi- '· tions pushed by backers of the alternate "intelligent design" theory, which says change over time was not random and that life was designed by a non-specified power because it was so complex. One of the opponents' concerns is that the plan misrepresents processes known as "microevolution" • and "macroevolution." At issue is whether systems that lead to a subspecies of animal could ultimately lead to an entire ly new species. Scientists opposed to the lesson plan believe the r • two ideas overlap. The academy's position is backed by Case Western Reserve University's faculty senate, a governing body that voted March 2 ,to oppose the plan. Several other scientists, including some · who support intelligent design, say the lesson plan correctly encourages students to analyze the theory of evolution. A group of 22 scientists wrote the board last week encouraging it to allow debate on di sagreements over evolutionary theory. AU atyJet of carpet are lncludetl: EASY PIYMENT PUll' Here's the deal...

Phase One of the 2004 presidential campaign is over and the Democrats have defmed themselves up and President Bush, down. Now, it's Bush's tum to do some redefining. While the conventional wisdom is that Bush is in a dicey situation going into the. long geneml electiOn camprngn, 1 think he's in surprisingly good shape, considenng the abuse he's taken from Democrats and the bad news he's endured, some of it earned. It's true that Bush's approval mtings are at the lowest point of his presidency, but 14 public polls conducted in February still showed an average approval of 50 percent to 43 percent disapproval. And, despite all the favorable attention that Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., has garnered during his phenomenal run of primary victories, the head-tohead race between him and Bush is dead even. The latest Pew Research Center poll, conducted Feb. 24-29, shows Kerry with a slight edge over Bush, 48 percent to 44 percent among registered voters, just outside the margin of error. But the_poll showed that 29 percent ot voters could change their minds about whom to support, of whom 13 percent tilt toward Bush and 10 percent to Kerry, with just 6 percent totally undec1ded. The swing voters overwhelmingly support Bush on foreign policy and social issues, but not on the econoc my.

After Bush declared himself on "Meet the Press" to be a "war president," Kerry rese;>nded by defining himself as first of all, a jobs president, as a health care president, as an education president and also an environmental president," giving short shrift to the war on terrorism. Until today, when the Bush campaign's first ads begin running, almost the entire job of defming Kerry and defending Bush has been left to Republican National Commillce Chairman Ed Gillespie and hi s research department, which have assailed primarily Kerry's defense record, but also his consistency on taxes and gay marriage. Bush has rarely mentioned Kerry up to this point. That all changes now Bush's first ads, entirely positive, tout his own leadership, dedication to entrepreneurship and job growth, optimism and response to "tough times." Ads rapping Kerry will come later. Arguably, the Bush campaign waited too long in countering Democratic attucks, miscalculating that the Democrats' nominee would emerge bruised and bleeding from the party's nomination fight. But, there's plenty of time left for defining and redefining -- five to six long months before the party conventions, during which the Bush campaign will spend $100 million and Democrats a lesser but still large amount. Then two months when the country will really be paying attention. The question is, can we all stand it?

COLUMBUS (AP) The state prisons department announced a plan Monday to try to eliminate sexual abuse among inmates and between prisoners and staff. The plan includes staff training, inmate ·education and victim support, said Reginald Wilkinson, director of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction.

"DRC will aggressively pursue anyone - staff or inmate - who victimizes others." Beginning last 111onth, new employees received training on how to prevent inmate-on-inmate assaults , and current employees will receive the same training over the next two years, he said. A standard training program w.ill make staff aware of what is prohibited behav-. ior between prison employees and inmates. Wilkinson said.

In bridge, we have a submarine squeeze, when declarer purposely loses a tnck to set up the squeeze. Sometimes. one has to underruff, following with a lower trump than the highest one already played to the trick. Then there IS the "under''. featured in this deal, wh ich occurred during the 1958 Bermuda Bowl in Como, Italy. What did West lead against five hearts doubled? At the first table, West led the diamond ace. then shifted to a spade. Declarer won with dummy's king, trumped a spade in hand. ruffed his remaining diamond. and drew trumps ending in the dummy. He cashed the spa'de ace and ruffed the last low spade in hand. With his prepa rations complete, South played a club to dummy's eight. East won with the queen, but wa s end played. He had to lead either a diamond (conceding a rufl -and-sluff) or away from his cl ub king - a classic elim· ination and endplay. In th e other room, P1etro Forq uet gave South no chance. He underled his ace, selecting the diamond three! After winning with his queen, East shifted to th e club king.

Terrell Owens skipped a physical with the Baltimore Ravens on Monday, then teasserted his intention not to play for the team. : While the Ravens waited for an arbitrator to rule on the star receiver's bid to void his trade from San Francisco, Owens issued a statement saying he won ' t suit up for Baltimore. "So that there is no misunderStanding, regardless of what happens with the grievance, under the present circumstances I do not see myself playing for the Ravens, " Owens said. "I can assure everyone that I will continue to keep fighting for my right to play for the team of my choice even after the grievance. At the end of this process, I simply want to be able to exercise my right to play for a team of my choosing under a deal that is fair to me and my family." The Ravens will wait for the arbi- · trator' s ruling before making their next move. "This is a matter between the league and the union right now," Ravens spokesman Chad Steele said. "We can't do anything 4ntil we hear back on the ruling." The Ravens expect the matter to be cleared up by Friday and are certain Owens will play for them this season . They said they are willing to rework the deal to bring his salary in line with top receivers in the league. But Owens wants a contract with the team of his choosing, and believes the Ravens were out of line in making the trade. Owens was denied free-agent status last month after he missed a deadline to void the final three seasons of his contract. His agent, David Joseph, filed a grievance with the NFL Management Council through the NFL Players Association. ·Gene Upshaw, executive director of the players /association, has asked the league to bverturn. the trade and have Owens' 'tontract voided so he can be declared a free agent. That could mean millions to Owens, who is due to make $17.7 million in base salary over the· next three seasons, including $5.3 million next year. Upshaw sent the case to Stephen Burbank, an arbitrator in charg~ of settling disputd regarding the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said . "First and foremost, I believe that 1 Gardocki not worried about kicking in PITTSBURGH (AP) - Chris Gardocki spent four years in Chicago and four years in Cleveland, so punting in Heinz Field doesn't faze him. . "I've had my share of punting iri. nasty weather," the Pittsburgh Steelers' new punter said Monday. "Playing in nasty weather in places like Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Chicago, New England, that should be to the home team's advantage." Gardocki also punted for four years in Indianapoli s. That 's where he played fo r specialteam s coach Kev in Spencer, who is now in Pittsburgh and was instrumental in directing Gardocki to the Sleelers. Gardocki needed the help. He once presented Steelers coach Bill Cowher with an obscene hand gesture afler linebacker Joey Porter had knocked the wind out of him with a postpunt block . At the time, Gardocki and the Browns railed about the so-called cheap shot, but Gardocki put the 2000 incident behind him yesterday. "When you 're out there, you don 't have any friend s," Gardocki said. "That's football. ln between the lines, people change person ali ties and you want to win. I'm a competitor and if you' re no.t in this game to compete and win, you shouldn 't be playing." Asked if he 'd talked to Porter yet, Gardocki said he hadn 't sought him out. , "I' m going to hide from him," he said. "I think he got the best of me." Gardocki signed a five-year, $6.5 million contract with the Steelers on Saturday, a deal that included a $,1 million·bonus. On Monday, the Steelers released eight-year veteran punter Josh Miller, who, like Gardocki, will be 34 on opening day. Both punters averaged 41.9 yards per punt last season, but Miller had the better net average of 37.4 to Gardocki's 34.8. The Steelers al so hosted free agent s Artrell Hawkin s and Duce St;lley on Monday. ' I I properly voided the remaining years on my contract. However, as a possible resolution to this dispute, I agreed to try and work out a new deal with a team of my choice that would be backed up by a trade with the 49ers," Owens said. " I was promised that no trade would be made unti I I completed such a deal. Unfortunately, all of the teams did not adhere to this agreement and we now have an even bigger mess." The Ravens obtained the four-time Pro Bowl receiver from the 49ers last Thursday for a second+round draft pick. Owens said he wo~ld not report to Baltimore, insisting that if given the choice, he would rather play for the Philadelphia Eagles. After Owens did not · show up for Monday's physical , the Ravens, who have the option of waiving the physical, postponed the examination Hei~ · Hawkins, a ,5-10, 190-pound Horton.
