Cash-strapped cities get creative to)pay for Chrisbnas displays BY CONNIE MABIN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER CLEVELAND - Holiday cheer was hard to find in the northeast Ohio city oT Elyria a few weeks back when it looked like budge[ woes were going to lead to the end of a Christmas tradition. Every year for two decades, the city paid for hot chocolate, Christmas lights and Santa Claus at th~ Finwood Estate, a 1925 mansion once owned by a judge that drew 12,000 visitors each holiday, season. A $1 million budget deficit earlier this month forced the mayor to cancel Christmas at Fmwood Estate and nix plans for other city holiday displays. But two local charities donated $35.000 to keep the Christmas lights on in Elyria, just one example of many creative ways cash-strapped cities across the nation are coming up with to pay for holiday decor. In Farmington. Ark .. resi- dents sell ornaments to raise money for the city's Christmas tree display. In financially struggling Arlington. Texa;, a councilwoman led an e!'fon this year to raise nearly $25.000 within the community to save the city's parade and tree- li,ghting ceremony frorrl the budget chopping block. Pittsburgh for almost a dtx:ade has paid for its popular downtown "Light Up Night" with the help of business donations, keeping the tradition going even last year when the city was so brokeits mayor lit-up skyscrapers and 65foot tree in the middle of the asked the state to bail it out.

The last-second losses, freaky injuries and intense scrutiny on his family changed his nund. It was time for Davis to go. The Cleveland Browns will move on without him. After arrivin1;1 three years ago with the pronuse of winning a Super Bowl title, Davis res1gned as Cleveland's coach on Tuesday, leaving the lastplace Browns with five games left in another sinking season. Davis' depanure can1e two days after the Browns dropped their fifth straight game, a 5848 loss that followed a script similar to so many others in the Davis Era: close but not good enough. Although he had been promised last week by team owner Randy Lerner that his job was safe for the remainder of this season, Davis decided he wanted out and surprised the team by stepping down. "''m not sure what changed," Lerner said. "My sense of it is that the whole environment had become very difficult to manage emotionally, and it was his sense that enough was enough. I know his family's state of mind was a huge piece of the calculation .... I did encourage him to stay." First-year offensive coordinator Terry Robiskie will coach the Browns for the rest of the season. His !irst game won't be an easy one: The Browns host the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots on Sunday. "He picked a hell of a week to make this decision," joked Robiskie, who served as Washington's interim coach for three games in 2000 after the Redskms tired Norv Turner. ''I'm not auditioning for the job. I just want to see the Cleveland Browns win." Davis inherited a 5-27 expansion team devoid of any depth or star players from Chris Palmer in 200 I. He went 24-36 during his stay in Cleveland, leading the Browns to a 9-7 record and a pia yoff appearance in 2002, h1s second season atier leaving the University of Miami. But since then. the Browns regressed, going 8-19 amid a stnng of close lo>ses, costly injunes and chaos. This season. Davis squabbled publicly with quarterback Jeff Garcia, whom he signed to a four-year contract as an upgrade over Tim Coach. The Browns also had some embarrassing moments: running back William Green's ejection for fighting before the Pittsburgh game and defensive tackle Gemrd WWTen 's taunts he was going to rough up Stcelers rook1e quanerback Ben Roethlisberger. Those distractions didn't help Davis' case, and neither did the Browns' mediocre play. Davis had three years remaining on a contract wonh about $12 million. Lerner refused to give details of a tinancial seltlement. but intimated he will pay Davis the rest of his deal. "I did it because I telt that he always acted in good faith," Lerner said. "He did honor the contract in terms of what was in his hean. I think he gave it everything he had, and that's all you can a~k a guy to do." Davis had unquestioned authority over the team's football operations department. But now that he 's gone Lerner plans to overhaul the front office. He will begin by hiring a general manager. Lerner ha5 studied the infrastructure at New Enllland and Philadelphia and decided that's what he wants the Browns to look like. 'There is no magic," he said. "We need to concentrate on organizations that have been successful and we need to understand how and why they have been successful and we need to assume those practices."

Why should he? II he can think. he will probably think diHerently. If he cannot think, it is monslrous to require though! of any kind from him." All bridge players can think, of course. In this deal, how do you think lhe play should proceed in lour spades after West has led the club queen? South takes the first trick with his club ace, crosses to dummy with a heart (a slig~trisk to make Eas1's IWe harder) , and calls lor a spade. Almost everyone would unth•nkingly play se<:ond hand low, but that lets the con· tract make. South leads another trump. eventually losing only one spade and two diamonds . East should ask himself from where four defensive tricks may come. First. the rounded suits must be hopeless. Next, West is highly likely to have IWO dia· moods. (If he holds three, South would have 4-4·3·2 distribulion and would 1'1ave raised hearts on the second round. If West has a singleton diamond. there's no hope, and maybe he would ha\le led it at trick one.) So, East hopes that West has high-honor-doublelon. East flies in with his spade ace and shitts to the diamond four. Now the spotlight is on South. If he rises with th e king, he will make tne contract.
