usty Wallace is bound for stockcar racing's Hall of Fame. At
age 46, he's won 54 races. Only
seven drivers have ever won more.
But as he grows older and the racing grows ever more competitive, the
frequency of Wallace's visits to victory lane bas been slowing down. It's · ·
been 76 races since Wallace won in
Fontana, Calif., on April29, 2001.
"In the last decade, I don't know
that I've changed a lot of my driving
style, and if I have, I don't realize it,"
Wallace said. "The car and equipment
and the races and personalities and
engineering and all this stuff have
come on to alter what might look like
a change in driving style.

"In my heart, I don't think' I'm driving any different. I'm definitely not as
sporadic and wide-open as I was before. I think I'm more focused and on
the gas now and paying a lot of attention. You could have 10 guys that
could win at any given time and now
you've got 25 of them. It's definitely
changing. There~s a lot more money in
the sport, which also makes it look
like driving styles have changed."
While the wins have occurred less
often, Wallace has hardly stopped
changing with the times. He switched
to Dodge this year after highly successful stints in Pontiacs (in which he
won the 1989 Winston Cup cham pi-.
onship) and Fords. He's eighth in the
current points standings and finished
seventh in 2000, 2001 and 2002.
For Wallace, though, it's always

been about winning.
"What's the reason we're struggling
on this? ... It's a people sport," Wallace
said. "I think organization has a lot to
do with it. I think catching all the
breaks on the pit stops has got a lot to
do with it, and I think having a great·
handling car has got a lot to do with it.
"I've per·sonally been real happy
with the performance of our car. I
thought this year we've run really, really well. We've been in the top 10 a
lot, and the races we haven't been in
the top 10, it's only because something
weird has happened, like pitting while
running third and the caution flag
comes out and puts you two laps down.
... Those type of things are real upsetting, but the performance of that car I
think has been there all year long." ·
·contact M?nte Dutton at tug50@aol.com.

I'm writing regarding Jim Willough·
by's comment on Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s
win at Talladega . If he has been a
fan of the sport for many decades as
he said, he wouldn 't stop watching
over one race .
Many times I've seen wins that
were questionable. Mark Martin's car
wa s "short " after last year's Coca·
Cola 600. He kept his win and I still
watched . Controversy follows r:1any
wins. Many fan s have disagreed but
haven't left the sport over it.
If Mr. Wil loughby stops watching
over one race, he can't have the pas·
sion. that he said he has. He can't be
a true fan.

Your feelings are obviously as

Jury fails Governor·rejects clemency
to reach request by death row inmate
verdict
AKRON, Ohio (AP) - A
jury faile9 to reach a verdict
Friday in its second day of
deliberations in the case
against a city councilman
charged with obtaining prescription painkillers by
deceiving his doctors.
The Summit County
Common Pleas Court jury
will resume deliberations
Monday in the case against
John Otterman, 43, a
Democrat and 10-year council member.
If convicted on all five
felony counts of deception
to obtain dangerous drugs,
Otterman could face 6 · 1/2
years in prison. He woulq be
forced out of office if convicted on any count.
Prosecutors said Otterinan
obtained narcotics while
seeking treatment for 'ailments including high blood
pressure, stress, allergies,
stomach pains, high cholesterol and nasal , sleep and
.heart problems.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
- Gov. Bob Taft on Friday
rejected a request for clemency by death row inmate Erne st
Martin .
Martin, 42, is scheduled to
die Wednesday for the January
1983 shooting death of a
Cleveland shopkeeper.
·
Taft took the recommendation of the Ohio Parole Board,
which voted unanimously
March 6 to deny Martin's
request.
There is no doubt of Martin's

guilt in the slaying of Robert
Robinson, Taft said.
Several state and federal
courts concluded that Martin
received a fair trial and had
adequate legal representation,
·
Taft said.
Martin says he is innocent
of the crime. His attorneys say
he was not adequate! y represented and that his crime - a
robbery that went bad - does
not merit the death penalty.
· Prosecutors say the facts of
the case, i ncl udmg the death

of Robinson, "a kind man"
known to help customers, justified the death penalty.
Martin previou sly claimed
he was mentally retarded and
should not be executed.
He dropped that claim last
week after a psychologi st
hired by hi s attorneys determined Mmtin was not retarded.
Martin would be the eighth
inmate put to death since Ohio
began carrying out the death
penalty again in 1999.

·. Pres. Bush stax breaks
needed and well warranted
"

• 0

.

President Bush's $350 billion package, aimed at providing tax
rebates, lower tax rates, tax breaks for businesses and investors
and aid to states has been met with criticism from Democrats in
Congress, who point to massive increases in federal debt.
The tax breaks are warranted, however, as the nation continues to struggle against a slow economy. The infusion of
cash back into public hands, theoretically, will serve to boost
spending, give a much-needed lift tothe economy and, in the
long term, eliminate debt ...
.
While we agree that there should be some concern over the
~ovemment's increased borrowing Bush's tax package
mcreases the federal debt limit by $984 billion to as much as $7.4
trillion- we agree with the President's contention that returning
wealth to the people will have a positive effect on the economy.
Bush critics point to elements in the plan that they say favor
the rich: cuts in capital gains and corporate dividend taxes.
But what they fail to mention are lower income tax rates, an
mcrease in the federal child credit and elimination of one of
the marriage penalties, which incidentally benefit all working
Amencans. ...
·
The plan will only work , however, if the government can
keep a handle on its own spending. Lowering tax rates can
stimulate the economy and at the same time boost tax revenues. We saw it happen under the Reagan administration. But
with ur.checked federal spending , such gains go all for naught
We saw that, too,. during the Reagan administration, under the
watch of a Democrat-controlled·Congress.
• Dally Courter, Conneltsvltte, Pa.

Free press and democracy
' One element of Operation Iraqi Freedom is moving too
qu1ckly for the Bush administration- freedom of the press.
Both the U.S. State Department and commanders of U.S. occupation
forces.in Iraq are sctmyin~ to come up with rules for the prolif~on of
media suddenly blo&amp;o;ommg m the absence of Saddam Hussem.
Vehicles of news and opinion, and. apparently, more of the
latter. are popping up every.where, and much of the opinion is
apparently cnttcal of the Umted States and its occupying troops.
There are calls for resistance, even violence. There are statements
that ~pokesmenfor th.e U.S.-Ied Coalition Provisional Authority say
are likely to mcue "v10lence or ethnic or racial hatred." ...
But what son of dernocrlq can the Iraqis build without a free fX'CSS? ...
Those shepherding this new democracy would do well to consult
one who helP!!~ binh another one more than 200 years ago. In the.
V1rgmm Btl! of Rights,"'&lt;! model for Thomas Jefferson's Declaration
of Independence, George Mason wrote that freedom of the press
"can never be restrained but by despotic governments."

The -Hillary Chronicles links the missing clues .
Well, I've tinally figured out the
sphinx that is .. Hillary Clinton. It took
me years, but I think I've solved the
mystery based upon the best available
evidence: her own words. The final clue
· in my piecing together this fascinating
puzzle was the senator 's mention of a
meeting with Jacqueline Kennedy
Onassis. That's when it all crystallized
for me.
First the setup. There is no way on
earth that a woman as intelligent as
Hillary Clinton could not have understood the weakness and the true character of her husband. even if he did look
like aViking at one time. BiH Clinton is

Ph.D. to add it up .
And the figures appeared with 'regularity, beginning with Mr. Clinton's
1992 admission on "60 Minutes" that he
had "brought pain to the marriage." I
guess you could interpret the statement
as Roger Cliillon being invited to the
wedding, but that would be a stretch.
Anyway, over the years, various
women showed up with mercenary tales
of bad behavior by BilL There were tape
recordings, depositions and, finally,
presidential admissions of fooling
around. Barney Fife could have figured
this one out. Mr. Clinton liked the
.ladies, and his ability to resist temptation was. well , in the Jim Bakker category.

Red Cross bloodmobile coming to

BY CHARLENE HOEFLIC.H
News editor

POMEROY - As blood

levels, an emergency appeal
for donors has been issued
by the American Red Cross.
The bloodmobile will be
at the Meigs County Senior
Citizens Center on Mulberry
HeightS in Pomeroy from I
to 6 p.m. Wednesday and
. residents are · being encouraged to donate then due to the
current shortage of supply.
Sandy Black of the ARC

"Donors are just not

she said, noting that with
some types of blood, the Red
Cross IS down to a one-day
supply.
,.
Inventories of four of eight
blood types are now below a
day-and- a-half supply, with
barely enough 0 negative to
cover one day's blood needs,

He srud that now a week:s
supp!y of all blood types IS
considered adequate based
on past hospital needs but
the need continues to grow.
Currently the volume of
blood transfused is increasing at a rate of six percent

Monkeypox, a disease
never before seen in the
Western Hemisphere, causes

vaccine Saturday to those
who have had close contact

humans.
The vaccine can prevent the

exposure to the virus and is
most effective jn the tirst four
days. But some health omcials are wary because the
vaccine in rare cases can ·
cause serious and eve·n fatal

. WASHINGTON (AP)- A
federal jury returned a $49
million verdict Friday against
four companies that make
and sell vitamins, finding
they conspired to tix vitamin
prices.
If the verdict stands, it
would be tripled to $147 million under federal antitrust
laws.
The companies found
liable in the civil case are animal
feed
manufacturer
DuCoa LP of Highland, Ill. ;
its parent company. DCV Inc.
of
Wilmington ,
Del.;

Japanese trading firm Mitsui
&amp; Co. Ltd.; and its New York
subsidiary. Mitsui &amp; Co.
(USA) Inc.
The lawsuit , filed by
wholesale
vitamin
purchasers, alleged the compani es participated in a worldwide conspiracy to raise and
fix prices and divide market
share for choline chloride,
also known as vitamin B4, a
common ingredient used in
ani mal feed.
The case is one of several
pending lawsuits around the
nation alleging that dozens of

vitamin makers oversaw a
conspiracy to artificially raise
prices for vitamins A. B. C
and E. Other drug companies
have already paid more than
$1 billion to settle similar
charges. ·
Michael D. Hausfeld, lead
attorney for the plaintiffs,
said the verdict is significant
because Mitsui is the first
inter~ational trading company to be found lia])le under
U.S. antitrust laws.
"This case signals that
international traders in commodities affecting prices in

U.S. markets can and will be
held responsible under U.S.
antitrust laws," H.. usfeld
said.
Sutton Keany, a lawyer for
Mitsui, said his clients would
ask Chief U.S. District Judge
Thomas F. Hogan to throw
out the jury 's verdict as a
matter of law and appeal the
case if necessary.
"The companies
have
denied from the beginning
that they have participated in
any wrongdoing of any kind
and that absolutely remains
their position," Keany said.

.Trade ministers report no breakthroughs in talks .over free trade .
WASHINGTON (AP) Trade ministers from the United
States and 13 other nations in
the hetnisphere reported no
breakthroughs Friday after two
days of informal discussions
aimed at re-energizing negotiations to create the world's
largest free trade zone.
While U.S. officials said the
tntde ministers remained committed to achieving a January
2005 deadline for completing a
Free Trade Agreement of the
Americas, · other
nations
expressed reservations that the
deadllne can be met given the
wide remaining differences.
Bmz.il, Argentina and other
Latin Ail1erican countries have
complained that the Bush
administration is refusing to
make adequate offers to lower
U .S. trade barriers in such politically sensitive areas as citrus
and other farm products, steel,
textiles and other manufactured
goods.
The meeting, called by U.S.
Trade Representative Robert
Zoellick, included officials
from 13 other nations including
Brazil, which co-chairs the
FfAA talks with the United
States.
. Brazilian Foreign Minister

Celso Amorin told reporters late
Friday the discussions had been
an opportunity to give trade
negotiators a chance to review
their positions.
"We got a vision about the
possibility to continue on a realistic track, leaving sensitive
things to be discussed under the.
(World Trade Organization)
umbrella~ or another scenario,"
Amorin said.
Brazil wants the talks proceed
on three tracks - the FfAA
negmiations, global trade liber·
alization tafks under the
and a bilateral free trade deal
among the United States and
the four countries of the
Mercosur trade bloc - Bmzil,
Argentina,
Uruguay
and
Paraguay.
The Bush administration ha~
et'nphasized its goal of getting a
comprehensive free trade agreement under the FfAA and using
that deal as leverage to achieve
greater reductions of trade barriers in the World Trade
Organization negotiations.
Luis Alberto Castiglioni,
Paraguay's vice president-elect,
told reporters Friday that meeting the January 2005 deadline
for completing the FTAA talks
would be "very hard."

wro

He too urged the United
States to consider moving some
of the issues to the WTO negotiations and opening up separate
free trade talks with the
Mercosur countries given that'
the United States already is pursuing a large number of individual free trade deals.
"We would like ro see an
inclusive United States, not an
exclusive one: a counuy that
can be a partner with all countries. not only with a few,"
Castiglioni said.
A senior U.S. trade ofticial,
who briefed reporters on condition of anonymity, said the discussions · had been informal
with no effort to reach agreement on any of the contentious
issues.
"There wao; a very frank and
candid discussion among the
ministers on where they !eel we
are now and where we need to
be in January 2005," the U.S.
official said.
The official said the next
actual negmiating session · will
occur when deputy trdde ministers meet July 7-1 1 in El
Salvador. All the discussions
arc to prepare for a meeting of
trade mimsters in Miami at the
end of November.

Antitmde critics have complained that more than half the
34 counlfies in the FTAA negotiations were excluded from thi s
week's gathering, and they said
the decision to hold the talks at
a remote conference center 70
miles from Washington in Wye
River, Md., was designed to
limit news coverage.
· Rep. Sherrod Brown, DOhio. said America's huge trade
deticits provided evidence that
the administration's free trade
policies were a failure.
"Every month we get numbers that confirm additional job
lo'sses, the decline.of our manufacturing base and our growing .
reliance on goods produced in
othe~ countries:· Brown said.
Mexican Foreign Secretary
Luis Emesto Derbez told
reporters Friday that it would be
important for the countries in
the FTAA negotiations to "work
out a clear agenda. That is to
pick up issues that would be
discussed under the ITAA
umbrella and those to be treated
under the WTD so that we can
move in both tracks in a parallel
fashion."

"Yesterday. 1 felt good . - the best I've

was probably the worst I've felt in the last

·
He got a medical resonance imaging test
and was diagnosed with tendinitis. He also
got a cort isone shot, and will rest the arm for
a few days.
• NO ENCORE: Larkin's main concern
was that he hadn 't faced real pitching in five
weeks.
It wasn 't a problern (he last time he came
otT the disabled list. He pinch hit in the ninth
inning against the Cardinals on May 6 and hit
a &gt;.olo homer on hi s first 'swing for a 6-5 victory - his only homer of the season.

·'You can only be lucky so many times,"
Larkin said .
·
• NAMING RIGHT: The Reds' firstround draft pick is going to have to do a lot to
live up to his namesakes - Nolan Ryan and
Mike Scott.
When Ryan Wagner was born in Texas, his
father. Travi s. wanted to name him after a
famou s Texas pitcher.
"He wanted to call name him Nolan Ryan
Wagner," said Ryan's mother, Linda.
She wouldn 't go along . As an alternative,
Travi s sugge sted that hi s middle name should
be Scott. named for another pitcher who was
doing quite well in the Lone Star State . She
approved.
So, he became Ryan Scott Wagner. He also
became a successful closer at the University
of Houston. and got a $ 1.4 million signing
bonus Friday from the Reds.
"It was fate from the begi nning. from the
day I was born.'' Wagner said. ·•r got my
name and here 1 am ready to play ball."
Travi s Wagner thought from the very
beginning that his son would make it as a
pitcher.
"When he was born , the firs( thing he did
was look at hi s hands and say, ' He's got long
fin ge rs. He 's going to be a pitcher,"' Linda
Wagner said. "The first thing he got was a
baseball. "

one day I' II realize what I'm ·
missing - but it might be too
late to start a family. Abby, I
have come to the conclusion
that the desire for marriage
and a family would require a
major personality transplant
for me. ·
'
I can't seem to convi~ce my
friends that I'm happy '.\as is."
I get so tired of defending my
lifestyle that I usually end up
telling them they're right just
&gt;o they ' ll stop bugging me.
What should I say the next
time? SINGLE AND
HAPPY ABOUT IT
DEAR . SINGLE AND
HAPPY: Marriage and fami ly may be the norm, but it
isn 't a gearantee of happiness
for everyone- as anyone can
tell by reading this column.
When your friends push the
subject, don't allow them to
make you defensive . Just
smile and change the subject. ·
DEAR' ABBY : How do
people know if their therapist
IS really helping them or JUSt
taking their money? Mine
does not talk much or give
any advice . What kind of
progress should I expect in
recovering from depression
and anxiety attacks, and how
do you evaluate yourself and
the doctor to determine if

your healing is just a slow ·
process or if it's tame to find a
better-suited professional? THANKS FROM OHIO
DEAR OHIO: Discuss
your concerns with your !herapist. Do not feel guilty for
questioning . your progress .
You have the right to do so.
Therapy can sometimes be
painful, but you must be completely honest, or it won't
work. That said, Sometimes it
takes a little shopping to find
a good fit, so don 't be embarrassed about wanting a second
opinion.·

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio - The
chant of "WE ARE .. .. MARSHALL" will echo a little louder throughout Gallia, Mason
and Meigs counties now that a.
new Marshall University club
has been established
,
Brad Sang, 1995 Marshall
University graduate and general
manager of Turnpike Ford of
Gallipolis, said Friday the
newly formed Tri-County
Marshall Alumni Club will not
only focus on the university's
outstanding athletic endeavors,
but also its successful arts and
academic programs.
"What sets this club apart
from the Ma&lt;;On-Gallia-Meigs
(MGM) Big Green Club is that
we are not focusing solely on
athletics," Sang said. ·
"Along with athletics, we are
also going to pay close attention
to other aspects of the university, namely its involvement with
the arts and its dedication to
academic excellence," he
added.
Currently, there are three
Marshall Alumni Association
Clubs in Ohio, the Central Ohio
Club in Columbus, the
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky
Club and the Northeast Ohio
Club, and seven in West
Ytrginia.
According to Sang, the success of Marshall's Mid-Ohio
Valley Center (MOVC) in Point
Pleasant, W.Va., coupled with
the large number of alumni in
the three county area, was the
"spark" behind the club's formation.
"I was approached by Homer
I?reece. member of the MOVC
board of directors, about stan- ·
ing a club for Marshall alumni
and individuals interested in the
university. Enrollment at the
MOVC has increased every
semester and we felt a club
would benefit both the students
and the surrounding communities," Sang said.
"Following my conversation
with Homer I contacted university officials in Huntington,
W.Va. and was informed that
there was, in fact, a 'huge' number of Marshall students and
alumni located in Gallia, Ma&lt;;On
and Meigs counties," he added.
"After hearing that, the decision to start a new club seemed
quite logical," he said.
Sang noted that being an
alumrus! of Marshall is not a

take 'these" because "by law
that is the way it has to be."
The Ohio Highway Patrol
has their ha[lds tied as well.
Unless the sheriff requests
back-up, the highway patrol
also can not respond to calls.
The highway patrol has no
jurisdiction on private property. Sergeant Pat McDonald
said the highway patrol only
has jurisdiction on public
right-of-ways which include
state and county highways as
well as township roads. He
said that unless a trooper sees
something in progress where
someone is in jeopardy, the
trooper "does not have the
powers and duties to be able
to do anything."
Sheriff Trussell alone will
be responsible for rural law
enforcement in the county's
429 square miles. On several
occasions the sheriff has contended that travel to different
ends of the county takes at
least 15 to 30 minutes for a
one-way trip. Trussell said in
The Columbus Dispatch, one
of the largest newspapers in
the state , that he will , be
unable to respond to property
crimes such as burgl'!ries.
Residents may file reports
from 8 a.m. to noon weekdays
at the sheriffs office.

POMEROY, Ohio- Since
the virtual shutdown of the
Meigs County Sheriff's
Department Saturday, many
local municipalities are on the
front lines of law enforcement
- or are they?
While several villages including Pomeroy, Middleport,
Rutland, Racine and Symcuse
have law enforcement officers,
they are not allowed by law to
respond to calls coming outside the limits of their respeco·
tive jurisdictions .
Syracuse Police · Chief
Brian Pearce said if a person
living outside the jurisdictional limits of his village calls
him about a crime or other
incident, state law will not
allow him to respond . The
exception to this rule would
be if Pearce or either one of
the other two law enforcement officers in the village
personally witnesses a crime
taking place, then a response
would be legally permissible .
"Unless we are witnessing a
crime, we can not go outside
our jurisdiction," he said.
"I'm not going to assume that
liability for the county or viiIage. ..
.
The chief said if his department receive s a call. that
unless it is a "life or death situation," he would tell the
caller to conl&lt;tct the sheriff's
department for further assistance. The sheriff's department may then request backup from the village before it's
l aw enforcement' officers can
get involved.
Middleport Police Chief
Bruce Swift said his oftice
has no jurisdiction either outside the village. Swift said
that everi if the Middleport ·
Police receives calls regarding trespassing or other similar crimes. "we reallv can't
