They knew how much this one meant to their close friend. The Cincinnati Bengals turned Kyle Boller's three turnovers into a 24-point swing, then held on for a ~426 victory Sunday that was tndescnbably sweet for their fired-up rookie coach Marvin Lewis. In a measuring-up game, his Bengals (2-4) showed they belong. "He wanted it," said Chad Johnson, who had five catches for 130 yards. "He wouldn't say so, but he did. I wanted to win for him more than anybody. He wanted it bad." He got it with a solid plan- make Boller sweat, then make the Ravens pay. Jon Kitna threw touchdown passes of 45 and 82 yards - the latter off a fo rtuitous deflection as the Bengals went ahead 24-7 during Boller's disastrous first half. After a couple of slop-time touchdowns pulled the Ravens close, the Bengals ran out the clbck and their coach got a series of hugs. Marvin Lewis was defensive coordinator on the 2000 Ravens team that won a Super Bowl ~ nd is the standard for everything he s done to Cmcmnat1. During the week, Lewts conceded that he practically got tears in his eyes as he watched game film of Baltimore's defense. Abandoning his in-control demeanor, Lewis screamed from the sideline Sunday and went onto the field to exhort his players during ti meouts - a sign of how much this one meant, though he wouldn't admit it. "I' ve got a job to do, they' ve got a job to do," Lewis said, glossing over his feelings. "I love them all, but we' re competing against them." The Ravens made no attempt to hide their disgust with how they played . They had 13 penalties for 11 3 yards and looked nothing like a firstplace team. , Though 3-3, they're still atop the AFC North, the only divisi\)n without a winning record. "It's not the end of the world, but it's a wake-up call for us," said safety Ed Reed, whose misplay turned into an 82-yard touchdown pass. "We made a lot of mistakes, and they capitalized on them." Boller's touchdown pass to Travis Taylor put the Ravens ahead early, but his first fumble changed everything. Matt Schobel beat linebacker Adalius Thomas down the middle for a 45-yard touchdown catch, the longest by a Bengals tight end ~n nine years. Boller then fumbled agam on a sack at the Ravens' 15 , setting up Corey Dillon's 2-yard scoring run less than three minutes later. Then, the Ravens' defense joined Boller in the self-destruction . Kitna severely underthrew a long pass to Johnson, who had three defenders around him. Reed perfectly played the ball, but it slipped t~ro~gh his hands and deflected off hrs nght shoulder - directly to Johnson, who caught it waist-high and kept g~ing for an 82-yard touchdown receptton, the Bengals' longest in eight years. "The bounces have been gomg to the other teams this year," Kitna said. "Sometimes, it's out of your control. Obviously, today was one of those days, because Reed made an unbe. lievable play." Kitna's 2 1-yard touchdown pass to Peter Warrick on the first play of the fourth quarter put the Bengals up 3410 and capped one of hi s best days16-of-2 1 for 274 yards without an interception or fumble. Boller later threw a 73-yard touchdown pass to Taylor - cornerback Jeff Burris went for the ball and missed - and Lewis mn 2 yards for a touchdown that cut it to 34-26 with I: 16 to go.

Wisconsin quarterback Jim Sorgi did- for a while. Reynolds, Ohio State's senior linebacker, was suspended for No. 8 Ohio State's home game against No. 9lowa. Sorgi- the man he choked in the third quarter of last Saturday night's game- play~d for the Badgers before being sidelined w1th a knee InJury Ill Wisconsin's 26-23 loss to Purdue. TV commentators, columnists, callers to radio shows and letters to the editor have almost all ravaged Reynolds for his ~ttack on Sorgi last week. Ohio State ended up suspending him for the Buckeyes' 19-10 vtctory. That, for some reason, inspired his teammates. . "We wanted to go out and play for Robert," linebacker A.J. Hawk said . "He's hurting now and we dedicated this game to him." Ohio State athletic director Andy Geiger said before the game that the length of the suspension was detennined only after several discuss ions. · . "Coach (Jim) Tressel talked to coach (Barry) Alvarez . I talked :OVith (Wisconsi~ AD) Pat Richter," Ge1ger satd. "(Commtsswne~) Jim Delaney at the Big Ten satd that thetr assessment would be a game. Alvarez thought a game. Richter thought a game. So we felt kind of unified in that." Without saying so specifically, Geiger said he was as outraged by Reynolds' behavior as most. "!don't think my o~inion was much different than anybody else s," he said . . . . Tressel said Reynolds was on the stdehne 10 street clothes, cheering on his teammates. • DOUBLE JEOPARDY: Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said a team can overcome only so much. The Hawkeyes had a punt blocked for a touchdown and had anot~er punt returned f?r a touchdown in Saturday s 19-10 loss at Ohto State. "You experience one of them and get away with it and you're fortunate," he said. "If you experience two and it's going to make it really tough _ . especially playing a team like Ohio State. That's a bad formula.'' Iowa had not had a punt blocked all year. The Hawkeyes also had not had a punt returned for a score against them this season. In fact assistant coach Lester Erb was selected as the nation 's top special-teams coordinator last season. In Iowa's six games ·this season, they had blocked three punts and returned one for a touchdown. They blocked two punts a year ago as well. "We knew coming in it was going to be up to the defense and special teams," Iowa taiiback Fred Russell said. "And they beat us with their special teams." · • NO KIDDING?: Eric Rothwell played the entire game at center for the Hawkeyes, replacin~ starter Brian Ferentz, the son of coach Kirk Ferentz. · Blame it on Rothwell, quarterback Nathan Chandler or a combination of the two, but the Haw keyes fumbled two critical center. exchanges and Rothwell also snapped a ball over Chandler's head for a safety. / "It's something we need to get ~Iter at," Cl]andler said. • QUICK-HITTERS: Ohio Stat has now won the next game after its last six losses ....

The court on Monday without comment denied a request by the Coalition for Equity & Adequacy in School Funding to file a federa l appeal of the lawsu it filed in 1991. The coalition 's leader called the decision devastating and promised to keep the funding issue alive in the state courts. ' "Today's decision cannot mark the end of the fight for justice for Ohio's schoolchildren," said William Phillis, the coalition's executive director. Gov. Bob Taft, a Republican, said the decision . ends the 12-year-old cuse but Ohio's schoolfunding system needs to be improved. A committee he created to examine the system is expected to recommend changes next year. In May, the Ohio Supreme Court ruled 5-2 to end the case and ordered state officials to fix the system, but then gave up jurisdiction and blocked. any further action in the state court system. The coalition of about 500 schools wanted the U.S. Supreme Court to order the state Supreme Court to reopen the case so that Taft and lawmakers could be forced to comply with the state court's previous rulings to lix the funding system. The court ruled three times in live years that the state's educational system was unconstitutional because it created disparities between rich and poor districts. The lack of a means to enforce tliose rulings, rather than specifics about Ohio's funding syslem, was the main issue before the U.S. Supreme Court. As an example of how the school-funding fight affected districts, Eastern Local Schools in Meigs County in southeast Ohio spent $7,003 on each student last year and raised just 16.3 percent of the money from The state is spending · about $7. 15 billion on schools this year, an increase of about 2.3 percent. The U.S. Supreme -Court allows appeals in only a small percentage of cases in which there is no direct federal appeal allowed. The nation 's top court decided 30 years ago that school -funding co ncerns belong in state, not federal , courts. But the coalition was asking the court to treat the issue as a separation of powers debate, said Paul Sracic, a Youngstown State University political science professor. Sracic said on Monday that . should the high court take such a case, it would likely look for a situation where local residents. By contrast, Bay Village in suburban Cleveland spent $9,622 on each student and raised 69 percent of the money from re~ ident s. Following the state Supreme Court's first ruling, lawmakers created the Ohio Facilities School Commission to rebuild and renovate Ohio schools. From 1998 through the end of this year, Ohio lawmakers will have made more than $3.5 billion available for school construction. During the last two-year budget, Taft and lawmakers included an additional $1.4 billion in spending on education because of the court's rulings. lines were more clearly drawn - such as a state court holding officials in contempt of court. "They ' re going to choose one where they had an actual fight," Sracic said. In Ohio, "the state court hasn't really pushed the argument." Jonathan Entin, a Case Western University Jaw professor, said the U.S. Supreme Court was never likely to take the case, especially since it seemed to be revisiting issues that the court has already said belong with the states. "It's essentially the equivalent of throwing a Hail Mary pass at the end of the football game," Entin said of the coalition's request to the high court.

He broke a year of stony silence by proclaim· ing his innocence in a rambling opening statement and as ki ng a witness: "Have you ever seen me shoot anyone''" It was not clear why Muhammad decided to fire his lawyers. who will serve as standby counsel in the first .trial to come out of last year's sniper spree. Just last week. Muhammad told the judge that he was satisfied wi th his attorneys. Muhammad's deci sion to represe nt himself in the death penalty case means he could end up cross-examining his acc users, perhaps survivors of the shootings. , In his 20-thinute opening statement, Muhammad said nothing about the shootings except to deny involvement: " I know what happened. I know what didn't happen. The y' re basing what they said about me on a theory. If we monitor (the evidence) ·step by step, it will all show I had nothing to do with these crimes," he told the j ury. Muhammad, 42, is charged in the slaying of Dean Harold Meyers, a 53-year-old Vie tnam veteran who was gunned down outside a northern Virginia gas station last October. He was the seventh victim in a three-week shooting spree that left 10 people dead in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C. Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo, 18, were arrested last Oct. 24 at a highway rest stop in Maryland .· Prosecutors have said the shootings were part of a plot to extort $10 million from the government. Malvo was in the courtroom for about two minutes Monday to allow a prosecu• tion witness to identify him. Prosecutors say Malvo has made several statements to police and jail guards in which he confessed involvement in many of the attacks. But Muhammad barely spoke to investigators, and offered only terse, one-word answers lo questions in many pretrial hearings. Muhammad spoke at le ngth during his opening statement about,the nature of truth, saying at one point. "Jesus said, ' Ye shall know the truth ."' He also said he hopes to be found innocent "by the grace of Allah ." "There's three truths: The truth, the whole truth and nothing . but the truth. I always thought there was just one truth," he said. "The facts should help us identify what 's a lie, what's not a lie."

The Daily Sentinel Subscribe today ¥ 992-2155 BALTIMORE (AP) - A college student who allegedly hid box cutters and other banned items on fou r airliners to expose weaknesses in U.S . securi ty was charged wi th a federal crime Monday, and a prosecutor said he committed a "very serious and foolish action." • The banned items were not discovered on the planes until four weeks after Nathaniel Heatwole, 20, had alerted authorities about hi s scheme via e- mail. He was charged Monday wi th taking a dangerous weapon aboard an aircraft, then released wi thout bail for a preliminary heari ng Nov. 10. On Sept. 15, federal authorities received an email from Heatwole say ing he had "information regarding six security breaches" at the Raleigh -Durham and Baltimore-Washington airports betwee n Feb. 7 and Sept. 14, accord ing to an FBI affidavit. Objects aboard Southwest Airlines planes that landed in New Orleans and Houston were not found until Thursday. The discovery triggered stepped-up in spection s of the entire U.S. commercial air fleet - roughly 7,000 planes. But after consulting with the FBI, the Transportation Security Administration rescinded the inspection order and no other suspicious bags were found . According to authorities, Heatwole told federal agents he went through normal security procedures at airports in Balttmore and RaleighDurham. Once aboard, he said, he hid the banned items in compartments in the planes' rear lavatories. Heatwole told authorities that he left packages on four of the six planes, according to U.S. Attorney Thomas DiBiagio. Other r.ackages were found on Apnl 13 and April 14 in planes in RaleighDurham, N.C. , and Tampa, Fla., but it was unclear when they were planted. The TSA , which received Heatwole's e-mail. did not send it to the FBI unti l last Friday. FB I agents then located Heatwole and interviewed him. Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge. whose department includes TSA, said officials "will go back and look at our protocol" for handling such e-mails. He said that the agency gets a high volume of e-mails about possible threats and that officials decided that Heatwole "wasn't an imminent threat." The e-mail provided details of where the plastic bags were hidden - right down to the exact dates and fli ght numbers - and even provided Heatwole 's name and telephone number. The charge against Heatwole, a 'junior at Guilford College in Greensboro, N.C., carries up to 10 years in prison . Defense attorney Charles Leeper told U.S. Magistrate Judge Susan K. Gauvey that it was Heatwole's "sinoere desire to return to college and attend classes." Leeper and Heatwole's family would not comment after the hearing. Gauvey set a number of conditions for Heatwole 's release . Among other things, he must not enter any airport or board any airplane. According to an FBI affidavit, Heatwole's signed email "stated that he was aware hi s actions were again st the law and that he was aware of the potential consequences for hi s actions, and that his actions were an ' act of civil disobedience with the aim of improving public safety for the air-traveling public."' However, DiBiagio suid Heatwole 's conduct "was not a prank . This was not poor judgment. ... It was not a test. It was not a civil action. It was a very serious and foolish action." Deputy TSA Administrator Stephen McHale said Monday's court action "makes clear that renegade acts to probe airport security fol" whatever reason will not be tolemted, pure and simple." "Amateur testing of our systems do not show us in any way our flaws," McHale said. "We know where the vulnerabilities are and we are testing them. ... This does not help." Guilford is a Quaker college with a hi story of pacifism and civil disobedience that date s to the Civil War. Heatwole is not a Quaker but shares many of the tenets of the faith, including a belief in pacifism, according to a February 2002 interview with The Guilfordian, the campu s newspaper. The student, a doublemajor in political science and physics, refused to register for the draft when he turned 18 as required by law, according to the interview. Instead, he returned a blank registration form to the Selective Service System with a letter explaining his opposition . The FBI affidavit, obtained Monday by The Associated Press, said Heatwole breached security at Raleigh-Durham airport on Sept. J 2 - the day after the two-year anniversary of the 200 I terrorist attacks. He did it again Sept. 14 at BaIt i more - Was hington International Airport. His bags contained box cutters. modeling clay made to look like plastic explosives, matches and bleach hidden in sunscreen bottles, the affidavit said. Inside were notes with details about when and where the items were carried aboard. They were signed "3891925." which is the reverse of Heatwole's birthday : 5/29/1983. Since Sept. II, 200 I, when 19 hijackers used box cutters to take over four airliners, box cutters and bleach are among the items that cannot be carried onto planes. Florida Senate to mull bill that would restore comatose woman's feeding tube TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - . Florida House lawmakers stepped into the contentious battle over the fate of a brain-damaged woman slowly starving to death, voting the governor new powers to restore her feeding tube.

(AP) ·" Judge to make decision on evidence in Clarett case BY JONATHAN DREW Associated Press COLUMBUS The criminal case against Maurice Clarett would be crippled if a judge decides to bar evidence collected from a separate NCAA probe of the suspended Ohio State running back, prosecutors say. Judge Steven Hayes on Monday postponed Clarett's preliminary hearing on allegations he lied on a theft report so that he can decide on Clarett's request to block information from the NCAA investigation. "If the evidence is suppressed, it would be difficult for us to proceed," city : Prosecutor Stephen Mcintosh said. He added that there were other legal options but wouldn ' t elaborate. Mcintosh said Clarett's taped statements to NCAA investigators amount to an admission to the misde· meanor falsification charge. '.'It's rare that we get a statement that we believe is an admission," Mcintosh said. Clarett is accused of fi.Jing a campus police report that exaggerated the value of items stolen from a car he borrowed in April. His attorneys argue the NCAA information should have been kept private as a federally protected "student educational record ." Hayes , son of former Ohio State coach Woody Hayes, will decide by a hearing scheduled for Dec. 17 whether to grant the request. Claret!, dressed in a black suit, sat quietly in the back of the courtroom . Neither Clarett nor hi s attorney, Percy Squire , spoke in court and did not answer reporters ' questions afterward . According to the req uest to suppress the NCAA information , Clarett was asked about the theft during an interview with the university and NCAA investigators. University officials gave information fro m the interviews to campus police who passed it on to prosecutors. "I don't believe they did anything improper in di sclosing the information and ultimatel y using it to file charge s,'' criminal Mcintosh said . Ohio State lawyers have said the informat ion was not a "studen t disc iplinary record" so Clarett 's privacy rights were not violated , acco rd ing to court documents. ·Ciarett has pleaded innoce nt to the charge that carries a maximum penalty of six months in jail and $1.000 fine. Clarett was suspended for his sophomore season for NCAA violations of acce{'ting money from a fam1ly fr iend and lyi ng about it to investi gators. He is separately suing the NFL, asking a federal j udge in New York to throw out a rule that prevent s him from entering the draft until he has been out of high sc hool for three years.

Bll ~ ·) BY BEN WALKER Associated Press can '!,-get up for playing in a plaqe like thi s, us compared to Yankee Stadium or a Camden Yards or a Fenway Park that's got all the history," he said. "So I think it definitely works in our advantage that it is kind of a dreary and glum place to play." The Marlins were one of the majors' best home teams this season. There are shades of October, too - the last time the Series was here·, the crowd was going crazy as Edgar Renteria hit a winning single in the bottom of the I I th inning to beat Cleveland in Game 7 in 1997. Besides, the ballpark is n' t that drab. Not with the overwhelming display of orangeand-teal seats, pulsating music and Cuban cuisine. "Thi' is di ffere nt," Yankees manager Joe Torre said. "We come in here, see the palm trees. It 's weird. It really is weird." OK, the trees in the Bronx are starting to show fall foliage. Yankee Stadium has Monument Park to honor the likes of Babe Ruth , Joe DiMagg io and Mi ckey Mantle, and a famous facade. The names that ring the facing of the upper deck in Miami include Bob Griese, Larry Csonka and Don Shula, and there 's a hot tub for fans down the right-field line. Another big Jifference that should be apparent: The sell out crowd of 65,000 is a MIAMI - Karim Garcia was running a bit late to practice Monday when he jogged down a darkened corridor and headed onto the field at Pro Player Stadium. Suddenly, the New York Yankee s outfielder jerked his head. The bright glare blinded him. ''Whoa 1" he said, scrambling for his shades. Sunglasses scattered in the clubhou se, bottles of Gatorade strewn in the dugout, players in shorts . Clearly, the scene had shifted in this World Series, from baseball's most hallowed park to 2267 Dan Marino Boulevard, the <tddress of a stadium originally built for football. Not that the Florida Marlins mind at all , going into Game 3 Tuesday night tied at I with the Yankees. Ace Josh Beckett was to start aga inst New York 's Mike Mussina. " I think our advantage in th is park is that people think it's ugly and think tt's not a baseball park," Marlins outfielder Jeff Conine said. "But we call it home and we feel like we've got that advantage. "They always come in and say, 'Oh, the lights are bad' and ' It looks like a football stadium.' I think they just Chiefs defense held Oakland to I 14 yards throu gh the first three quarters, frustrating the oftense that was the from Page 81 NFL's best las t season.

We certainly know that there are a lot of transplanted !':lew Yorkers in South Florida," Torre said. , The Marlins' biggest edge going into Game 3 might be Beckett. The ace of the Florida staff, he saved the season in the NL championship series. He pitched a two-hit shutout in Game 5 agai nst the Chicago Cubs and came back on two days' rest with four brilliant relief innings in Game 7. Now, full y rested, the 23year-old you ng gun is ready to bring his I 00 mph heat at least, that's what the amped-up radar gun readings show. Beckett grew up in Texas admiring Roger Clemens, as did a lot of Little Leaguers in the state. "Yeah, I idolized him," Beckett said. "When I was younger, I used to try to pitch like him and stuff. Deti nitely in the street when we were playing home run derby. I ha ve an autographed ball by him, stuff like that." Mussina is 0-3 in thi s postseason. Hi s best outing came in Game 7 of the ALCS, when he relieved and pitched innings three scoreless against Boston. Mussi na is a Gold Glove fielder, and know s the Marlins might test him. "A large part of their game is their speed. We know they like to bunt, 6bviously."

Moments later, Eddie Kenni son slipped underneath two defenders and hauled in Green's 43 -yard pass at the I despite safety Derrick Gib son's interference on the play. Green sneaked around the right end two plays late r. Kansas City had a 55yard drive late in the seco nd quarter, leadin g to Morten Andersen 's 37-yard field goal with I :07 left. Otherwise, Oakl a nd 's defense had reaso nable success against the Chiefs' powerful offense. Porter, the Raiders' brash deep-threat re ce iver, . played his first game since having multiple hernia surgery on Sept. 12. He fini shed with four catches for 69 yards. ' 'This is not musical chairs," Edwards said. "There is not going to be a quarterbafk controversy." When Pennington was injured, he was expected to miss I 0 to 12 weeks. His return Sunday means he will be returning a bit earlier than anticipated. Edwards said he wrestled with the deci sion all last week and talked with Pennington abo ut what he wanted to do Saturday night. He said he discussed t)Je decision with Testavetae and Pennington, and both are fine with it. "It's the right thing to do for the football team and for Vinny and for Chad," Edw ards said. "If you're goi ng to change a quarterback, you want to make sure both parties are involved in a game because of the uncertai nty about Chad." Testaverde has played well in the last two games, helping the Jets come back from an 04 hole. Against the Texan s in a 19-14 co mebac k victory Sunday, Testaverde led tile game-winning 86-yard drive - and contributed a 13-yard run. Now at 2-4, the Jets still are hoping to make _a playoff run.
