The Wildcats haven ' t been a factor in the rankings since the 2000 season, fini shing lOth two years ago and mis'sing the top I 0 entirely last season . Around the pre:eminent prep power in the state, that's a century. Going two years without an Associated Press poll championship marks the first time that 's happened since 1988 . St. Ignatius has won seven AP titles and nine state playoff championships - all in those magnificent last 15 seasons. The Wildcats in Division I are joined at the top in the initial voting of The AP's 57th annual poll by Macedonia Nordonia in Division II, Cleveland Benedictine in III, Coldwater in IV, Delphos St. John ' s in V and Dola Hardin Northern in Divi sion VI. St. John's is following a script similar to St. Ignatius' . The Blue Jays have won five poll crowns and three state playoff titles and hold the slate record with 57 consecutive victories from Nov. I, 1996, to Nov. 17, 2001. Yet they haven't finished higher than ninth in the final rankings the last two years. Nordonia was the biggest surprise among the No. I teams. The Knights never finished in the top I 0 of an AP poll until placing ninth a year ago . They went on to the state title game , losing 41 -26 to Dayton Chaminade-Julienne. Dwight Eisenhower was in the White House when Benedictine won its only previous AP title in 1957. The school finished No. 2 in the rankings in 1981 , '86 and '97 but hasn't appeared in the final top 10 since. Coldwater is the only defending poll champion listed at No. I this week. Hardin Northern has finished a season in the top I 0 only twice - fourth in 1997 and sixth two years ago. The tightest races are in divisions II and V. Nordonia leads Avon Lake by only 13 points through three games, while St. John's has a 22-point edge on defending state playoff champion Marion Pleasant. St. Ignatius leads last year's poll champ, Warren Harding, by 23 points in Division 1.. Among the other 2002 playoff champions. Cincinnati Elder is ranked No. 8 in Division I, Cham,inade-Julienne dropped to Division Ill where it is No. 4, and Mogadore . is No. 6 in Divi sion VI. Division III winner Columbus Watterson and Division IV's Kenton are unranked. , The poll voters include 45 sports writers and broadcasters around the state.

Not yet, however. The Wildcats tried to end their footnote in Ohio prep football history Friday mght, but had one touchdown called back because of a holding penalty and were stopped at the goal line on a two-point conversion with six minutes left in a 20-18 loss to Van Buren. It was the 79th consecutive Blanchard Valley Conference defeat for Vanlue, one of the smallest schools in the state offering football. Van Buren quarterback Matt Blair carried 36 times for 222 yards and two TDs and threw a touchdown pass.

TUPPERS PLAINS - In a split second, a life can change forever. Jayne Collins of Long Bottom had always dreamed · of bein~ of teacher. She ~ra uate d from the Universtty of Rio Grande in 1993 with a degree in elementary education and a year later she would be working in the Eastern Local School District teaching .writing. Students, faculty and staff held her in high est~em. April 29, 2002 .was an ordinary day until another motorist ran a stop sign and struck Collins' vehicle. One person died, a couple others were injured and Collins was in critical condition. After the dust had settled she would learn that sh~ was a quadriplegic. She has limited movement in her right hand and can move her head but her life changed 'forever in th'e space of, a moment. During rehab at Marietta, there was a "family meeting" between several doctors, nurses, support staff, therapist, socilil service people, and main family members. "This was the first time the word 'quadriplegic' was ever used and my future was realized," Collins said. "The realization that I was going to be a 'quadriplegic' for the rest of my life was discouraging. Up 10 this point in time, there had been encourld agement that I wou over time get well. I somehow felt that I would be lixed." Collins had a battle to fight. The detnons in her soul began taking her to dark places few return from. .

She was bltler. . "I was and I am bllter; however, I hope not to be one day.

"The htghest pmnt was when I was able to come home for my.first visit, which happened three months after the accident. I was able to lie in my own bed, which had been purchased and delivered just a lew days before the accident." Despite everything, Collins does not feel God has forsaken her. "All I know is that there were many prayers said for me and continue to be. I have had said to me , 'God does not give you more than you can handle. "' As the days wore on and Collins began to recover, she discovered life is not something to be taken for granted. "Yes I appreciate everything and everyone more. I did not realize how much my family and friends were willing and arc still willing to help out in any way they can. I never knew how many good friends I had and the lengths they will go for me." Collins had a dream. a calling, that would not go away despite the changes that she was going through. "I didn't want to be on dis-, ability the rest of my lite," she said. "I wasn't going to let the negative act of <mother person destroy my life." She wanted to go back into the classroom. When Please see Teacher, AS for only a $1 a day.

The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Polley Monday, Sept. 15 CINCINNATI (AP) Cinergy Corp. plans to spend $21 million between 2004 and 20 10 to reduce or offset coal-lired power plant emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. The utility announced Wednesday that its levels of emissions in 2000 will be reduced 5 percent by 20 12. Cinergy's power plants released 67 million tons of the pollutants in 2000. The commitment by ·the utility, which serves 1.5 million customers in parts of Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky. also applies to methane. nitrogen oxide, hydrofluorocarbons, sulfur hexafluoride and pert1uorocarbon. Because there is no available technology to completely capture carbon dioxide before it leaves a generating plant. Cinergy plans to reduce those emissions with a combination of strategies, company spokesman Steve Brash said. He said the strategies include conducting research to develop new technologies, working with large customers to promote electricity conservation during peak power demands and making generating plants more efficient. "This is by far the most aggressive commitment of a,ny utility that primarily burns coal ," said Brash. Environmentalists have criticized Cinergy in recent weeks for failing to fulfill a 2000 promise to the government to reduce releases of various pollutants. Cinergy's commitment is only a first step toward significant reduction of greenhouse gases. said Ohio Environmental Council spokesman Kurt Walzer. "The problem is we don't have national policy for dealing with heat-trapping gases from coal-fired generating plants. You can 't deal with global warming through voluntary measures," Walzer said. MARIETIA -The Washington State Communhy College Board of Trustees will hold its regular meeting at 4 p.m. on Sept. 15 in the college's community room. Sens. John McCain . RAriz.. and Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn., are pushing a proposal to make reductions mandatory. Pressure is increasing on utilities to voluntarily commit to reductions, said Gordon Howald of Credit Lyonnai s Securities. He said Cinergy is one of the first to specify how much It wdl reduce emi ssions among companies joining President Bush's program to voluntanIy cut gases that contribute to heat-trapping pollution layers in the atmosphere "You've got to give the company credit for taking the initiative," Howald said. Bush created the volllntary program in 1997 as an alternative to the international ·Kyoto climate treaty. which the· United States rejected. The treaty calls for industrial nations to cut emissions by an average of 5 percent based on 1990 levels by 2012 .

Let us also not forget the brave young men and women who have put their lives on hold as they serve in the U.S. armed forces under the most stressful conditions imaginable. One way to show our appreciation for their dedication is to go to the Web site OperationDearAbby.net, and send a message of encouragement and support. Let them know that they are in our thoughts today -- and every day. I am proud to say that mo~e than 2 million of my carmg, generous readers have sent messages to our troops so far. Please continue your support. They need us now more than ever as this conflict drags on. DEAR ABBY: I am a ISyear-old girl from a financially secure family. My best friend, "Audrey," is in the opposite situation. Her parents are divorced. Her mother works full time to support the family. I used to get annoyed at Audrey when she'd hesitate after I'd suggest we do something fun together. She finally admitted she didn't have the money. I feel awful because money has never been a problem fo~ me, and I thought it was not a problem for any of my friends. I love being with Audrey. I don't want her financial situation to put a damper on our friendship . I am more than willing to pay for things like admissions to amusement parks, movies and other events -- and even buy her clothes when ~e go shopping together. The problem is, she is very sensitive about money. She never takes me up on my offers. · How do I get to do fun things with Audrey without making her feel she is Other events Friday, Sept. 12 .

I ties have had since Sexton disappeared to find out what happened to her, said Elyria police Lt. Andy Eichenlaub. No other missing person is considered to be a possible match. Since she vanished, people reported seeing Sexton 10 times in five states and Mexico. Four other times, police were told that her body might have been fo11nd. The young woman in Louisiana was buried in a potter's field in 1986, two weeks after two fishermen found her nude, plastic-covered body in Lake Pontchartrain. Her coffin was cardboard and the grave was marked with a plain cross. At the time, police knew only that she was between the ages of 17-20, was preg- nant and had breast implants, said Tiffany Tate, spokeswoman for the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office. A St. Tammany detective reopened the case of the Jane Doe ·about two months ago, .hoping that new technology such as DNA testing could help solve the case, Tate said. With urging from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. departments around the country have been reopening old missing persons cases in the hopes that DNA technology will help solve the mysteries. DNA from the body found in Louisiana will be compared with samples collected this year from Sexton's mother, Barbara Terrell . The testing should take about a month. A reconstruction of the deceased woman's face, beiog done at the Louisiana State University FACES lab, could be finished next week. The lab's director, forensic anthropologist Mary Manhein, will use clay to try to show what the woman looked like. The lab works with police departments and the Center for Missing and Exploited Children to do . age-progression imaging and facial reconstruction. Since her daughter disappeared, Terrell has hired a private detective and circulated posters with her daughter's picture. She did not return telephone messages left at her home.

Diane K. Hill Controller-Interim Publisher Charlene Hoeflich General Manager-News Editor GUEST VIEW Schools Mr. DeRolph goes to Washington The DeRolph School Funding case was filed in December 1991 by the newly formed organization !Jf school distncts named the Ohio Coalition for Equity and Adequacy of School Funding. The complaint brought against the State Defendants was that the State is not fulftlling its constitutional obligauon to secure "a thorough and eftictenl system of common schools." State Defendants greatly resented the Plaintiffs as well as the complaint and used all the awesome power of state government to fend off the unmaskmg of Ohio's egregtous school fundmg system and to crush the litigation effort. State Defendants, during the 1993 Perry County Common Pleas Court trial. conceded that the Ohio system of public education was inadequate, inequitab le and morally wrong, but proceeded to vigorously defend the constitutionality of the system. The court did not agree that an• madequate, inequitable and morally wrong system matches tbe constitutional standard of a thorough and effi cient system. The trial court ruled twice and the Ohio Supreme Court ruled four times that the system is unconstitutional. The Ohio Supreme Court ruled in March 1997and Mav 2000 that the school fundtng system must undergo a compiete systematic overhaul. In September 2001, the Ohio Supreme Court ruled that if specific changes in the school funding formula were made, the Court would deem the system constitutional even without a "complete systemattc overhaul" of the school funding system. However, in December 2002, the Court returned to the original position and ruled that the system must undergo a complete systematic overhaul in accordance with the first two decisions. State Defendants have made cosmetic changes to the unconstitutional, failed system but have refused to give the system the overhaul ordered by the Court Over-reliance on property tax and a per pupil base suppon level that is unrelated to pupil needs are two major culprits that have continued unabated since the beginmng of the litigation. Although the Ohio Supreme Court had ruled and firmly held that the system is unconstitutiOnal, the Coun, on May 16, 2003, ruled that Penry County Common Pleas Court Judge Linton Lewis is without authonty to consider the Plaintiffs' motion requesting a compliance conference. The Coun, in eftect, closed the courthouse doors to the DeRolph Plamtiffs. This decision struck a blow not only to adequate school funding in Ohio but also to the rule of law. The Ohio Supreme Court has firmly established that the State has failed to meet its constitutional responsibility to provide a thorough and efficient system of common schools. The Court has unquestionably determined that all students in Ohio have the right to a thorough and efficient system of public education. However, the Court has washed its hands of the enforcement of that right. Thx Court has denied the Plaintiffs access to the courts with regard to remedy. A right that is not enforced is a hollow pledge. A declaratory judgment that is not enforceable renders the judgment meaningless. Therefore, the CoaJition has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court for relief. The U.S. Supreme Court received the Coalition's Petition for a Writ of Cel1iorari at !0:19am, August 14, 2003. The Petition is a request for permisston to file an appeal with the Cou11. Most of the petitions tiled with the U.S. Supreme Court are rejected. In fact, the Court grants only one to two percent of those tiled. So why did the Coalition file a Petition in view of these statisttcal odds? Because the issue is so very critical But what is the issue? Not school fundmg. The Ohio Supreme Court has ruled four ttmes that the system is unconstitutional. The issue now is whether the rule of law has meaning in Ohio The question the Coalition presented to the U.S. Supreme Court is: "Have the Petitioners (Coalition) been deprived of their rights, under the United States Constitution, to due process and equal protection of law by the deci sion of the Supreme Court of Ohio barring them from access to Ohio's couns for the enforcement of a final judgment, including remedial orders, entitling Petitioners to afftrmative relief?" The above question rises in importance to the very top of the concept of ordered libel1y. It addresses whether the courthouse doors can be closed to the DeRolph Plaintiffs or anyone else. The U.S. Supreme Court's response to the question has implications of monumental magnitude. Hence, the potential of the U.S. Supreme Cou11 granting the Coalition's Petition seems much greater than the statistical one or two percent. (William L.

But that could change if former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean wms the Democratic presidential nomination. Dean prides himself on being the only Democratic candidate who opposed Bush's "No Child Lefi Behmd" law, whtch was negotiated with key Democrats and passed through Congress by overwhelming margins in 2001. The law reqmres states to develop tough new education achtevement standards, annually test ch1ldren tn grades 3 through 8, repon the results and take action to improve inadequate schools, utcluding givmg parents altemative education chmces. The measure wa' passed 87-10 in the Senate, 38141 m the House- out of a bipanisan perception that, despJte billions of dollars in added spending over the pa' t decade, student perfomtance continued to lag. New evidence gathered since the law's passage only reinforces the need for standards and accountability, especially to help low-income and minority children catch up to their peers. NCLB reqmres schools to show not only overall average improvement on tests, but also progress by low-mcome students, Afncan-Arnericans, Hispanics and disabled students. In Congress, even as Democrats lambaste the Bush administration and the GOP for underfunding NCLB, they have continued to endorse the Thursday, September u, Morton Kondracke purpose of the Jaw On Aug 2 1, tssumg a repon utled "Broken Promises · the GOP Record on Education.'' Rep. George Miller, 0-Calif., a princtpal co-author of the law, declared that "NCLB was not just another law passed by Congress. It was the most important federal educat ton law since 1965," when federal aid to education began. Similarly, m remarks prepared tor a bli stering Senate speech tod ay. another coauthor. Sen. Edward Kennedy. D-Mass.. declares. "We know what works 111 school ref(mn. When we provide the resources, we know that schools can be tumed around" Democrats contend - correctly- that Bush's 2004 budget contains $8 billion less for NCLB than the 2(X) I law mntemplated, and allege this conslttutes a bt each of fatth on ht s part, especmll y 111 view of severe state budget pressure' and educatton cuts In the 2004 electton . Educatton Secrelllry Rod Pmge told me. he expects that education fundmg will be a "ilot topic." He argues the adml!u stration line that NCLB is adequately funded - and that alleged shortfalls are simply the difference between what Congress has authorized and appropnated. But if Dean becomes the Dema<.TJtic nominee. the educatton debate will be more elemental - whether the federal government should . tmpose standards-settmg requtrements on the slates and hold them to account. His opposition to NCLB deserves to be a topic of debate among Democmtic candidaIes. In a January session with Roll Call reponers and editors. Dean declared NCLB "the Every School Board Left Behmd btl!" and said of hts Democrati.: rivals, "I don't know how these guys think they are going to get the suppon of the teachers unions. having voted for it."

More than 200 chtldren, each of whom lost a relative in the most devasmung terrorist assault in U.S . htstory. began reading the names after a children's choir sang The Star-Spangled Banner. Man y of the children included a personal message. Chri stina Marie Aceto, 12, said: ''I love you, Daddy. I miss you a lot. Rtchard Anthony Aceto." The ceremony opened with two bagpipers and a drummer marchmg onto the site of the World Trade Center, beanng an American flag that once flew over 1ts ruins. "We come here 10 honor those that we lost, and to remember this day wi th sorrow," Mayor Michael Bloomberg satd .

"I know I' m very proud of my children." said Lynn Morris, whose husband, Seth Allan Morris, died Sept.

Wahama has won 18 straight regular season contests and will be heavily favored against the winless Tornadoes but veteran WHS grid mentor Ed Cromley guarantees his local eleven will not be looking past Southern. "We can't afford to look past. anybody," Cromley said. "We try and focus on what we need to do individually and as a team in trying to improve each week and not what our opponents have. or have not done. We have several sophomores pushing our upperclassmen for playing time so I would hope that would take care of any letdowns that might creep into any of our starters minds." The Tornadoes enter.the Friday night outing with an 0-3 slate after suffering successive, one-sided, losses to a trio of powerful football foes in Berne Union, Symmes Valley and South Gallia. Southern coach Dave Barr has five returning re~ulars but the Meigs County team would still have to be constdered a young squad that is short on experience.

Timmy Cogar (5-9 255). a semor and a part t1me starter last season. and Johnny McDaniel (5-9 175) are expected to round out the Southern interior line . The Tornadoes backfield figures to be a junior dominated throng with returning quarterback Philip Nease Pierce (5-10 170) being joined hy fullback Jake Nease (6-2 240), and running backs Chri s Tucker (5-7 160) and sophomore Derek Teaford (5-8 150). Senior Josh Smith (6-2 180) and junior Ryan Smith (6-1 170) are expected to be the Southern receivers. Although Pierce threw for - 119 yards and two Pierce scores agamst Wahama last year Barr is set in his thinking that Southern will be a running football team in 2003. "We're not going fO t~row it a whole lot, we're gomg to run 11, 'sa1d Barr . earlier in the year. ''Pierce is a mobile quarterback and Nease will r,robably be the centerpiece of our offense.

He answered tersely, then drummed his fingertips loudly on the side of the wooden lecteni and stared straight ahead. Next question ? Kitna insists that he's not feeling any pressure as the Cincinnati Bengals quarterback. His defensive tone and his rat-a-tat fingertips say otherwise. Although the whole team imploded during a 30- I 0 defeat against Denver last Sunday, J<iitna felt most of 'the ·fans' wrath. He fumbled twice, was sacked four times and threw two interceptions, one of them on a slapstick shovel pass that was returned for a touchdown. He looked tense and played that way, repeatedly bouncing passes or overthrowing receivers under pressure. Broncos tight end Shannon Sharpe thought Kitna played like someone looking over his shoulder. waiting for the hook. Kitna didn't like it. "Shannon Sharpe is like an expert on our team now?" he said Wednesday, his voice ri sing. " I went out there and played the game to the best of my abilities and tried to make plays for this team and a couple of them backfired. "Why should I look over my shoulder?

Clarett was punished because the school determined he accepted thousands of dollars in improper benefits and then lied to NCAA and school investigators. 'This is a sad day," Ohio State athletic director Andy Geiger said as he announced the penalty. Even though the infractions date back to 2002. the school is not in jeopardy of having its national title stripped. Clarelf will remain on scholarship this school year. His attorney, Scott Schiff, wouldn 't spec~late if Clarett's Ohio State career was over. "He's considering his options right now," Schiff said. Clarett had been suspended from <the team while the NCAA and Ohio State investigated his finances.

One more poor showing ·in Oakland on Sunday might force coach Marvin Lewis to consider Matthews, who was the best of the three in the exhibition season. The plan is for Palmer to watch from the sideline for as long as possible this season. How long Palmer stays inactive could be up to Kitna, who has grown tired of questions about his star understudy. "You can say Carson Palmer is here and all that, but there are no things that are written in stone," Kitna said. "Just like .last year: Who knew who was going to be here this year? Or who knew who was going to be there from week to week? Nobody knew. "As a quarterback, if you try to play those mental gymnastics with yourself, you're going to drive yourself crazy." Lewis plans to stick, with Kitna for now, but wants him to stop making poor choices, such as the shovel pass that essentially ended the game. He tried to give his quarterback some he I p Wednesday by rearranging the offensive line, which was overwhelmed in the Fuller played in 12 games last season and helped the Browns get to the playoffs for the first time since their rebirth .

Lewis had moved his linemen around in training camp to open a spot for rookie left guard Eric Steinbach. This week, Rich Braham has been promoted from a backup role to center, where he started the last four seasons. Mike Goff moves from center to right guard, where he started the last three seasons. Matt O'Dwyer was moved from left guard to the right side during training camp to open a spot for Steinbach, who stays in place. 0' Dwyer falls to a backup role. "We'll see what our best combination is," Lewis said. "We'll put Richie in the mix with Matt and Mike, and I think it takes all three guys for us. Right now we're struggling a little bit, and hopefully this helps." It also would help if Kitna cuts down on the risky plays, which have been the hallmark of hi s career. He's not about to change. "I'm not into going out there and try to hide on the field and just try to play it super-safe," Kitna said. "I'm trying to win the football game." Lewis noted that the Tennessee Titans beat the Raiders in their opener because Titans quarterback Steve McNair played.a solid game, controlling the ball for nearly 35 minutes. "Tennessee did an excellent job with that," Lewis said. "No.9, I'd say, did an excellent job of that. I'm going to ask Jeff if we could borrow him ." McNair wears No. 9. Kitna wears No. 3.

''This is one game out of ten and another Friday night we have to be ready to play football." The rivalry ts a new one, in fact, the first ever meeting between the two took · place Southern from Page 81 ··hopes to continue its winning streak in its 2003 home opener but Falcon coach Ed Cromley isn't completely satisfied with the Bend Area teams overall play during its first two contests. "It's nice to win but we have to get a whole lot better fundamentally," Cromley stated: "Maybe our game plan the past two weeks had somethin~ to do with our fundamental mistakes. We tned to substitute freely to try and wear our opponents down and because of that we had younger players in the game and that may have contributed to our disappointment with fundamentals." Wahama isn't expected to make many changes in its starting eleven although a couple of Falcons should see some added playing time in sophomore lineman Clay Roush (5-9 CJarett from Page 81 to the amount he received in benefits, which Geiger t.e,rmed as "thousands of dollars," if he wants to be reinstated.. Ohio State can appeal for Clarett's reinstatement after the year suspension is complete. "We hope the NCAA considers a suspension for this season to be sufficient," Geiger said "More important· ly, we hope that Maunce will remain in school to pursue his degree, and that conditions will warrant our application for reinstatement to play Buckeye football next season." If Claret! transfers, the NCAA requires the new school to declare him ineligible, then seek his reinstatement through the NCAA. He would have to sit out a year in addition to any suspension or ineligibility handed down by the NCAA in order to play at another Division 1-A school. Clarett could play immediately in a smaller d1vision after he is reinstated. Schiff said he was troubled that Claret! js not permitted to appeal the NCAA penalties. The association's rules only permit a school to appeal. "The most ~t thing I think is that the mherent problem with the NCAA procedures is the lack of due process and the lack of any procedure for the student-athlete himself to ar.peal the NCAA findings," Schiff said. 195) and junior tight end Brant Davis (5-8 145). "Clay has really come along and has allowed us to rest our starting tackles which has been an important aspect in our game because our starters are ~oing both ways on offense and defense," satd Cromley. "Davis also gives us the opportunity to give Aaron Faulk a rest as Faulk also goes offensively and defensively." WHS is expected to field a starting front line consisting of senior Aaron Faulk (6-3 215) at ti~ht end, senior R.T. Roush (5-10 255) and JUnior Brandon Bell (6-0 250) at tackle, senior Jeremy Smith (5-8 175) and junior Shawn Weaver (5-7 160) at guards with junior Anthony Jodon (5-10 205) at center. The quarterback will be junior Chad Zerkle (5-9 155) with senior Anthony Mitchell (6-0 160) at the wideout position. The running backs are expected to be senior Brandon Gagnon (5-7 145) and juniors Jeshua Branch (5-6 150) and Johnny Barton (5-8 155). Claret!, a s9phomore, could also try to go to the NFL and challenge the rule that requires players to wait three years afler high school to enter the drnft or leave for the Can~dian Football League. Geiger said Clarett accepted some benefits during his freshman year- before Ohio State won the national title in ·the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 3. Geiger said the NCAA had not determined that the school could be blamed for the violations, or that the bowl victory was in jeopardy. Because the NCAA is not in \charge of the bowl system, it does not have the power to strip a school of a nallonal title. "If the university was unaware or uninvolved, then the university is not culpable," Geiger said. Clarett's final carry for the Buckeyes' last season ranks among the most memorable in school history. He scored on a 5-yard run in the second overtime to give Ohio State a 31-24 victory over Miami in the Fiesta Bowl and its first national championship in 34 years. Clarett. set Ohio State freshman records last season with 1,237 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns. Ohio State coach Jim Tressel Said Clarett's suspension was "very distressing because I hapren to think that ... the sky s the limit as to what he can be." Tressel said he had spent more time with Clarett than any other Ohio State player the last two years. · 'The question would be could I have spent more time with him, could I have done a better job in some areas," Tressel said. "Those are things I think about often ... perhaps I didn't do as well as I could have done." Clarett, his mother and Schiff met with Geiger earlier Wednesday before the suspension was announced. After the meeting, Michelle Clarett was · asked if her son was considering transferring. "Nothing has been decided if we go, if we stay, if we dance or not," Michelle Claret! said. Clarett's mother did not return a phone message seeking comment on the suspension. . "It's very difficult on them," said former NFL star Jim Brown, who spoke to the Claretts after' the meeting. "They're tom between so many emotions. Really, just tryin~ to follow the process, do the nght thing and weigh their options." Tressel said he would not stand in the way and would recommend that the university grant Claret! a release from his scholarship if Claret! a'ked for one. Clarett was charged Tuesday with misdemeanor falsification for lying about items stolen from "his car. If convicted, Claret! would face up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fme, but probably would get probation. . Unrelated to the suspension, Clarett also is being investigated by an Ohio State panel looking into allegations of academic improprieties involving athletes. · 3-Q 2· 1 2·1 o-o 1-1 o-o . 1-2 o-o 0-3 Ohio Division :rum Vinton County 2·1 1·2 1·2 1·2 ().3 Hocking OIYI1Ion Illln Trimble Eastern Federal Hocking Waterford Miller Southern M o-o ().0 o-o ().0 All 3-Q 2·1 2·1 2·1 .-,o ( I '\ I '>• \t> l .1 1 Eastern at Meigs SoulhematWahama Alexander at River Valley Federal Hocking at Belpre Minford at Nelsonville-York Vinton County at Coal Grove Oak Hill at Wellston Bishop Rosecrans at Miller Ports.

The Ohio Emergency Managemen! Agency has awarded the grant !hrough !he Meigs County Emergency Management Agency . for flood mi!igation planning. according to EMA Director Bob Byer, who discussed the grant and its requirements at Thursday's regular meeting. According to Byer, team of FEMA and Ohio EMA personnel will meet with county otficials next week to assist in the formation of a core committee who will work to complete a mitigation plan for the county by next Sept. I. Byer said the plan will out1ine potential flood hazards in the county and ways in which the county can address those hazards through mitigation efforts in the event of tlooding like that experienced in the county last spring and summer. Byer also presented lhe commissioners with a copy of the county's new hazardous risk assessment, a document which covers possibl e responses to any number of ci vii defense emergencies. "This document addresses everything from droughts .to lerrorisl allacks," Byer said. The assessment is a FEMA requirement. and will be sent to !he Ohio EMA for review. Bo!h the mitigation plan and the harardous risk assessment will be required for future funding through the Emergency Management Agencies, Byer said. a The old Pomeroy Junior High, which has been vacant for years. has seen better times.

Young said the village insurance policy will pay up to $200,000 to make repairs to the building, but only to the auditorium. · Anne Chapman does not want the building torn down. She said the building "is an architectural gem" that should be restored. ''This is the only major building in the area with any size that can be utilized to improve the economic viabiltty of the community," she said. Chapman, who attended the Pomeroy Junior Hi~h between 1948 to 1951, satd the building should be turned into a civic center. If she had her way, the old junior high would serve as a convention center, county government complex or youth center. Chapman said that · perhaps , Ohio University or other schools might be interested in converting the old school into an anthropological center to study American Indian culture.

Bush issued a proclamation earlier this month declaring the obser. vance of the second anniversary of the terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington. D.C., calling upon the pubhc to conduct ceremonies and other activtties to honor the more than 3,000 people killed in the attacks. The proclamation also asks citizens to fly the flag at half-staff, and to observe a moment of silence at 8:46 a.m., the time the attacks began at the World Trade Center. "As we remember Sept. II, 2001, we reaffirm the vo~s made in the earliest hours of our grief and anger," the proclamation reads in part. "As liberty's home and defender, America will not tire, will not falter, and will not fail in fighting for the safety and security of the American people and a world free from terrorism." "We will continue to bring our enemies to justice or bring justice to them. This Patriot Day, we hold steady to this task." President George W.
