W.Y<I. - Money will be the primary concern for incoming Point Pleasant Mayor James H. "Jim" Wilson when he takes office Tuesday. But he believes that despite a tight budget for 2003-04. all of the city 's needs will be met , "You have to look at finances," Wilson, a husinessman and ~ubstitute teacher who served on city council prior to his election as mayor, says. "We had a year that wa' unique because we had two major project,, the Riverfront Park ami P o 1 n t PI e as ant Intermediate . School,•that generated a ~ood bit of mcome for the city through the B&O tax," Wilson Wilson says. " T h a t allowed the city to do a lot of paving work," he adds, "'The new budget has already been planned, but they took the situation in account ." Realizing the additional revenue generated by the projects will disappear upon completion this fall , Wilson says the estimated $2 million spending plan submitted to the state la.st March and etlective J,uly I covers all bases. "But the biggesl problem with cities is that we live on such a tight budget and if you have you have a problem, like another ice storm, it drains the ·city of what little extra you have," Wilson says, "We're trying to get away from that." Completing the Riverfront Park project will be a priority for Wilson, who looks for the state to follow through on its economic development grant pledge of more than $1 million for the facility. a linchpin to tourism attraction efforts in Mason County, The pledge h~ s been delayed because of litigation in Charleston over the makeup of the board that approved th!i \\rant and others in West Y1rgm1a . Wilson hopes that if the couns direct Gov. Bob Wise to appoint a new board, previous commitments like Point Pleasant's will be honored and another application for funds isn ' t needed. "If not, we can't do some of the things we planned. That would be the worst-case see' nario. We hav~ hope that the situ~tion will be resolved and the answer to us is, 'Yes, we . will cut you a che<:k."' Not that the project is in any danger. · Wilson says completion is budgeted, and with the job around 75 percent finished , he 's hopeful the state will continue with its commitment. The park is now slated for completion in late August. "Hopefu ll y, if the money comes through. we' ll be in great shape. If not; we will have to be creati've and figure ·our our next ster." As mayor, Wilson wants to work internally first, seeking input from the <:ity 's nearly 60 employees for suggestions on Pleue see Mayor. AS Astrograph I BY BEANICt BED£ 0501.

In other cases, the evidence, compiled years earlier, has dis-· appeared. . Jerome Campbell, spared execution Thursday by Gov. )3ob Thft, remains the only convicted killer to take advantage of a state program that offm DNA testirig under limited circumstances. More Ohio death row inmates want to accept the state's offerto test DNA but in many cases aren't able to, David Bodiker, the state public defendi:r, said Friday. " In many of the cases it wasn't a factor and the evidence is not available," he said. For example. DNA evidence once existed · in the case of Anthony Apanovitch, sentenced to die in the 1984 mpe and stnmgulation of a Cleveland woman. Labomtory slides with S3J11· pies from swabs of the victim were discovered and tested in 1991 , then destroyed. A prosecutor's report on the tests exists, ' but there are too many ques. tions about the reliability of the evidence. ·said Dale Baich. a public defender representing Apanovitch. In Campbell's case, defense attorneys wanted to test gloves, a hat and shoes. The shoes were tested but the gloves and hal were missing, Bodiker said. Fonner Attorney General Betty Montgomery created Ohio's program in 2000, modeling it on similar programs in several other states. To qualify, inmates cannot have had an earlier test with a definite result, must have taken advantage of DNA testing at Uial and must show that the testing could exonerate ·them. A bill on it~ way to Taft would make such testing part of state law. Twenty-six states have pasled . laws or have pending legislation that allow inmates to have DNA tested and have the evidence reviewed, said Richard . Dieter, executi ve director of the Washington, D.C.-based Death Penalty Information Center. Since 1973, 108 death row inmates nationally have been exonerdted. Of those, DNA wa~ a substantial factor in establishing innocence in 12 cases, according to the center. · DNA evidence is only available in about I 0 percent of criminal cases, Dieter said. lion from its state- fun ded construction program. to compensate for increased personnel costs and snow and ice removal overruns.

Although progress has been made in some areas, such as a return of refugees and the re sumption of education for girls, overall the administration is still unable to ful)ction as a state government w-i·th regard to such core functions as military, finance and sec urity matters. · The Karzai administration is a tran sitional government. According to the timetable agreecl upon by various Afghan factions, a constitutional loya jirga, or grand council, is to be convened by the end of the year and a new .constitution adopted. Thi s is to be followed next year by a general election that will establish a new government. . Time is running out. If Afghani stan is to be reconstructed according to the agreed .timetable. the Karzai administration will have to exhibit strong leadership and institute more self-help measures . In thi s respect , assistance from the international community. including the International Security Assistance Force, will remain essential for the time being.

Ex-priests accused of abuse released after Suprem~ Court strikes down retroactive law BY LINDA DEUTSCH Associated Press LOS ANGELES (AP) Two former priests were freed from jail Friday following a Supreme Court decision invalidating a state law · that retroactive ly extended the statute of limitations on old mo'lestation cases . . Lawrence Lovell, 55, and Mich;~el Wempe, . 63. were among II Roman Catholic priests in Los Angeles County whose charges will likely be dismissed because they were brought under the 1994 law. "I have absolutely nothing that I want to say to you, OK''" Wempe told reporters as he left jail. Asked if he felt vindicated, he said: "No." Clergy abuse investigation' have been among the most widely publicized as people came forward to report sometimes decades-old molestations. But Thursday's high court decision affects other cases as well. and state authorities say about 800 cases not involving priests will have to be reviewed. Several members of the organization Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests on Friday criticized the high court 's tuling. "Yesterday was a bleak day for everyone who wants to keep children safe," said Jnelle Casteix. "Hundreds of dangerous men who committed heinou s and disgusting crimes against ch ildren will now go free ." Wempe ·s anorney. Leonard Levine. said his client has always denied the allegations. The 1994 law allowed prosecutors to pursue cases in which the statute had already expired. But the Supreme Coun ruled that the government cannot retroactively erase statutes of limitations. The majority said it was fundamentally unfair to change the rules after the fact. Larry Guzin, whose office represe nts 20 priests in sex cases, said he hopes prose~u­ tors will dismiss the pending cases and drop investigations or allegations that date beyond the statute or limitations. "We are hopeful that the district attorney will recognize the state of the law and foreclose investigation of any or our clients whose allegations are ancient.'' Guzin said. Sandi Gibbons, spokeswoman for District Attorney Steve Coofey, said prosecutors met Friday to determine if any of the cases could be salvaged. Federal agency refuses to declare lynx endangered . BY ROBERT WB.LER Associated Press DENVER (AP) - The government Friday rejected a demal1d by environmentalists to list,the Canada lynx as an endangered species in the Lower 48 states. The decision by the U.S. Fish <md Wildlife Service means the tuft-eared cats with snowshoelike paws· will remain listed as threatened, a designation that provides less protection. The decision was denounced by environmental groups that had won a ooun ruling forcing the government to review an earlier finding that an endangered listing was unwarranted. · ;oWe don't dispute that the lynx seems to be doing better in the nonhero Rockies, and the Colorado reintroduction program seems to be gaining some ground. But lynx still appear to be in big trouble in the Great Lakes and the Northeast," said Mike Leahy, sppkesman for Defenders of Wildlife in Washington. Leahy said no decision had been made on whether to appeal. There are fewer than 800 Canada lynx in the Lower 48 states, acoording to the Animal · Protection Institute, a California environmental group. The species' range south 'of Canada extend~ across 14 stalei. from Washington to Colorado to Maine. It is not a threatened speeies in Alaska.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, overriding requests from environmental groups. has·decided Friday. to list the Canada lynx as threatened instead of endangered in th~ lower 48 states. (AP Photo/US Fish and Wildlife Service, File) Federal law delines an endangered species as one in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant ponion of its r.mge. A threatened species is one that is likely to become endangered. Lori Nordstrom of the Fish and Wildlife Service in Helena. Mont., said the decision will give wildlife managers more llexibility in preserving the lynx or seeking to reintroduce it to its native areas. It will also allow the agency to write special rules that could, for example, permit the killing of lynx that prey on livestock.

The game ended in a 4-4 tie. Kestner pitched a complete game, allowing four runs and striking out four batters. (Andre Tirado) Mason·County, Putnam County play to 4-4 tie . BY ANDRE TIRADO Staff writer _......AMERICAN LEGION POINT PLEASANT, W.Va.·_ After a rocky ending to its ga me against Parkersburg on Wednesday, Mason Cou nty (5-6) tried to get back on a winning track against Putnam County on Friday ni ght. Unfortunately, Mason County cume up one run short and was forced to settle for a 4-4 tie in nine innings after darkness set in and ended the game. The game was a defensive battle throughout as Mason County pitcher Dale Kestner was consistent and his club played solid defense. Kestner navigated his way through seven innings allowing four runs and striking out five. Putnam County countered with Daniel Snyder, who proved to be up to the challenge with six strong innings. The Winfield ace allowed only three runs and struck out four. Predictably, the game star.ted with little offense for both teams. Kestner started the game off strong with his tirst strikeout and set the Putnam County batters down 1-2-3 in the first inning. Snyder then responded with a strong inning of hi s own, and the defensive battle was underway. Mason County's Chris Barbe was the first batter to break through with a hit in the second inning, but was left stranded on base as Snyder quickly regained control of the game. Trouble finally caine for Mason County in the third inning when a double by Bill McDaniel set up Putnam County's tirst run as Steven Childers scored from third base on. a sacrifice fly. BASEBALL Mason County immediately made a cqmeback with a walk by Ned Park and. a hit by Brian . Stalnaker in the bottom of the inning. Unfonunately, Putnam County escaped without conceding a run thanks to a double play and held onto its 1-0 lead . However, the home tea in wasn't done yet. The locals finally broke through in the fourth inning on a hit from Josh Whitlock and a double from Kestner. Kestner's double scored Whitlock to tie · the game 1-1. In the fifth inning, errors hurt Mason County. A passed ball allowed Brett Reed to score and Putnam County regained its one-run lead. Mason County responded with an unlikely surge of power as Whitlock sent the ball over the fence in left field for a 2-run horne run that gave Mason County their llrst lead of the night. After Whitlock's heroics. Mason County did their best to make the lead stand by stifling Putnam County for two innings with solid pitching and good defense. . The locals took their lead into the eighth inning looking to close ihe game out. but Putnam County put together a late rally to get back into the game. Andrew Cochrane started things off for the visitors . with a double and Mike Hutchinson followed that up with a single. A.J. Goode then Please see Legion, a:z CLEVELAND - Jody Gerut nearly did a canwheel as he pulled into second base with an RBI douhle. . . "I've never been' so exc ited about a run before." Gerut said. The offensively challenged Indians gave rook. ie Billy Traber enough suppon, and he pitched seven sharp innings as Cleveland snapped a three-game losing streak with a 3-0 win Friday night over the Cincinnati Reds. Traber (3-4) allowed five hits in his longest career outing and earned his first win as a staner. The _23-ycar-old lcft-hander. who moved into the rotation in May when Jason Bere was lost for the season, · walked .one and struck out five . "He hit my glove all night," cat.: her Tim l.;nker . said. "Even . when he was missing. h~ was just a hair off the plate." David Riske worked the eighth and Danys Baez walked two in the ninth before striki ng out Jason LaRue for his . 17th save. completing the combined six-hitter. The Indians, who scored just three runs while being swept three strai ght by Kansas City, scored three times in the seventh innin g off Danny Graves (3-7). Reds dropped to 1-6 on a 12-game. 14-day trip that began with a three-game sweep in Arizona. "It's frustrating.' ' shortstop Barry Larkin said. "They just beat us and we didn 't do much about . it." Followin~ Thursday's 4-1 loss, Cleveland manager Errc Wedge was too upset with his team to scold the Indians about their lack of offense lately. So he held a pregame meeting Friday, and the Indians responded. " It felt like we were feeling the weight of the universe with every swing we took." Gerut said. "Whenever you have team meetings before games about offense you usually struggle . Tonight, we didn't." Actually, the Indians did for. six innings. Graves limited Cleveland to two hits until the seventh , which Milton Bradley opened with a double arid went to third on a wild pitch. Gerut followed with an opposite-field double off the wall in left for the game's first run. "[ was so happy I got the ball in the air that I forgot to run," Gerut said. "I should have had a triple. I felt like that one run would be the only The one. " He moved up anyway when second baseman Juan Castro threw a,way Ben Broussard's grounder for an error. Ricky Gutierrez brought in Gerut with a groundout. and was safe at second when the Reds couldn't turn the front end of a double play. John McDonald then singled and Brandon Phillips made it 3-0 with an RBI single. •·one bad half·inning and that's the game," Graves said. Until the seventh. the Indian s had been unable to get any clutch hits lately. They went 3-for-6 in the inning with runners in scoring position after going 2-for-24 in the previous three games. "We got the Royals out of town, so we knew we had a chance." Laker said. Traber didn ' t allow a runner until Jose Guillen doubled with one out in,the founh. But he retired Ken Griffey Jr. and Austin Keams on groundouts to end the threat. Please see Tribe, a:z Westfall yictorious in playoff Va.

"We're going to battle more, l can guarantee that." There was plenty of verbal sparring durin~ the playoff, which used each player's combined three-hole score to determine the winner. Carter. preparing to hit first on the No. 16 tee, stepped away and looked toward Westfall. who was standing a few feet away with his· back to Carter but moving his club in Caner's line of site. " He wasn't doing it on purpose. But still. a distraction is a distraction." Caner said. "I backed off. and he got upset that I told him about it. But that's golf, and we're friends.
