GALLIPOLIS - In four terms as a U.S. representative,
Ted Strickland has established familiar ity with vo ters in the
Sixth Congressional District, which encompassed most of
southern Ohio.
But now that redistricting has created new boundaries for
the Sixth, the Lucasville Democrat finds himself working to
be just as familiar, to new constituents.
Starting next year, the Sixth, which form erly extend~ d
from Marietta to Cincinnati's suburbs, runs from eastern
Scioto County to near Youngstown, including new counties
Strickland hopes to continue representing after November's election.
"There is a concern that it's going to be
impossible for a person to adequately
represent them," Strickland said during a
stop last week in Gallipolis, noting the
district now stretches some 360 miles.
"I plan to do it, I'm determin ed to do
it, but some folks want a representative
from up there,'' StriCkland said.
Strickland
"If I'm .elected, I'm committed to representing all of the district," he added. "I
won't discriminate between one community over the
other."
His opposition in the May 71Jrimary will be from the district's newer end. Democrats also seeking nomination are
Boardman attorney Lou D' Apolito and businessman
Charles Brown ofYorkville.
Republicans looking to challenge the seat are businessman Mike Halleck ofSalem,o who met with Gallia County

empowerment zones, loss of highway funds of Ohio and a
reduced budget for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers are
new worries for the region.

Warming trend begins
ASSOCIATEq PRESS

COLUMBU (AP) States and
schools have str\!ggled for about 75
years over how - or whether - to
teach students about evolution.
An argument that began with John T.
Scopes being charged , in 1925 for
. teaching -the theory now is focused on
Ohio, where some believe a legislative
turn to the right has created fertile new
ground for the debate.
The state is the first where supporters
of an idea called intelligent design have
aggressively pushed their case.
The concept says life is too complex
and diverse to be explained merely
through evolution and that an uniQentified higher intelligence - not necessarily God - must have played a role.
Critics call it creationism in disguise.
Kansas was the last battleground over
origin-of-life theories. Supporters of
evolution say conservative groups
· moved the fight in part . because, like
Kansas, Ohio's conservative government provides territory ripe for selling
their idea politically and not scientifically.
"This didn't just happen by random .
The ID networks have been planning
this strategy for some time," said
Lawrence Krauss, a physicist from Case
Western Reserve University. "They
were looking for the right place to have
a test case, and they found Ohio."
George Bishop, a political science
professor at the University of Cincinnati who has studied public opinion

toward ongm theories, said Ohio's
political climate could be one reason
intelligent design supporters are pushing their case here.
"You wouldn't get away with this in
the state of New York. In California,
you'd be laughed out of the Legislature,
and you wouldn't have a prayer there,"
he said.
.
Backers of intelligent design, includ"
ing religious groups such as the Tupelo,
Miss.-based American Family Association, say t!i'ey didn't target the state.
"There's no grand scheme that we
looked at the U.S. and said, 'Ohio's the
place to go,"' said John Calvert, managing director of the Intelligent Design
Network in Lake Quivira, Kan. The
group was the first to present the concept to the Ohio Board of Education,
in January.
"The fact is, Ohio decided to work
on the issue, and some people there
were interested in learning more about
it," Calvert said.
Ohio just happened to be the first to
review ·its teaching standards after" the
federal education reform bill was signed
into law in December, said Bruce
Chapman, president of the Discovery
Institute. The Seattle-based think tank
supports teachers e"xamining various
origin-of-life theories.
A congressional report accompanying
the law included a Senate opinion that
students attending schools receiving
federal money should be entitled to

learn that there are differing views on
controvenial topics such as evolution.
An Ohio law enacted last year
requires the stat~ to rewrite standards
for all kindergarten through 12th-grade
core academic subjects. A state school
board committee began rewriting the
science guidelines last year.
When any state reviews its science
curriculum, controversy usually flares.
The scientific community wants more
rigorous standards; the religious community wantS broader standards.
"In that sense, you could say this is
par for the course in Ohio," said John
Green, director of the Bliss Institute for
Applied Politics at the University of
Akron. "But that the political landscape
plays a role also has some validity. We do
have a more conservative state government then we have had in the past."
After many years in the minority,
Republicans control the House and
Senate and include a conservative bloc .
of House lawmakers. Republicans also
hold all nonjudicial statewide pffices.
Green said the state's conservative
landscape could appeal to people on
both sides of the evolution debate.
Scientists may think they can sell
stringent standards because of the
Republican leadership's push for hightech economic development grounded
in the hard sciences, he said.
Religious -groups might believe it will
be easier to ensure their values are taken
.seriously, Green said.

TUITION PAYMENTS
MADE ME 00 IT.

DEAR ABBY: My husband of
eight years went to work a couple of
weeks ago and never c:une home.
He put a card under a friend 's door
saying he wasn't coming back.
When I sorted through the
belongings he had left behind, I
found a "good luck" card from my
mother to him and more than
$1 ,000 worth of money order
receipts. We had planned ~o move to
Reno in April when we had
enough money saved. However,
according to some of the letters I
found, my husband never intended
to take me with him to Reno and my mother knew it.
I am extremely hurt and feel
betrayed by this turn of events. Abby,
should I confront my mother about
this? - BETRAYED IN SAN

NATIONAL VIEW

Bad idea
Pharmacy assistance program
should be lift alone
• The Manhattan (Kan.) Mercury, o" prescription dmg rosts:
·. Legislative Democrats' intent is nobk enough, but a proposal to
spend all the money in the Senior Pharmacy Assistance Program in three yea rs is a bad idea.

Not that the idea du'esn 't have some attraction . Instead of
reimburSing up to $1,200 a year in medi cation costs to about
1,000 low-income elderly Kansans as is done now, the program
wou ld b~ able. to help as many as 311,1100 se nior citizem ....
The proposal calls for spending more than $18 million a year
for prescription drug assistance and more than $3 million to
help low- income elderly pay especially high prescription bills.
Democrats hope the· federal goyernmenl will step in after
three years when ihc,tund is depleted, and if that doesn:t happen . the state would have to find a way to continue the prograuL

Suffice it to say that some legislators are vastly more optimistic about federal assista nce than is justified.
Wh at is justifi ed, however, is 't he Democrats' defense of this
program and efforts to protect it from Republicans who see it
as part of a larger solution to the state's budget crisis ....
R ep ubli cans ought to · l.eave the fund alone and forrpally
acknowl edge that this mon ey is properly set aside for senior
citizens, and Democrats ought to make sure this money goes as
far as possible. The elderly of th is state will be better served by
safeguarding money earmarked for se nior programs than by
spending it all at once and counting on a federal bailout.

HENTOFF'.S VIEW

Ashcrift should think tUJice bifore making co~ments
A comment by Attorney General John
Ashcroft on syndicated coluinn ist Cal
Thomas' show (carried by a network of
Christian radio stations) has stirred considerable anger, and not only from Muslim
and Arab-American groups. On the Nov.
9 broadcast, Ashcroft reportedly told
Thomas: " Islam is a religion in' which God
requires you to send your son to die for
him. Christianity is a faith in whi ch God
sends his son to die for you."
Janles Zogby, president of the ArabAmerican Institute in Washington, wrote
to President Bush, saying that if Ashcroft
"did not make the TCmarks, he should
cbrify the situation and repudiate the
comments." Otherwise, said Zogby, the
attorney general "should publicly apologize and meet with Arab and MuslimAmerican leaders to discuss measures he
should take to make amends to the Muslim community and to all Americans." ·
And, in a Feb. 13 editorial, the St. Louis
Post-Dispatch said,"IfAshcroft believes on a deeply personal, and usually safely
hidden, level - that all Muslims practice
this kind of radicalism that AI Qaeda and
the Sept. 11 hijackers embrace, he could
not only unfairly target hosts of innocent
people, he could also :~teer th e hunt for
terrorists in thousands of wrong directions
... Although this may not have been Mr..
Thomas' intent, he has provided the
nation a glimpse of Ashcroft that gives us
pause."

Although our views are not always consonant, Cal Thomas and I have lJeen
friends for many years and I can attest that
he is chronically incapable of spinning. He
always tapes his interviews, but this remark
by Ashcroft came after Thomas had
packed up his tape recorder. Accordingly,
Cal read it back to the attorney general
and his communications director during

that Ashcroft, as a man who has .been in •
public life for many years, knew he! would
be quoted, including the Statement he '
volunteered after the tape machine had •
been stopped. "He kn ew he was talking to ';

tian, but he is also clearly devoted to '~

his zeal - par,ticularly his attack on con-·'

incursions - reminds me ofJustice LoLli~'
Brandeis' concern that the "the greatest' ~
dangers to liberty lurk in insidious ·
encroachment by men of zeal, well-mean-·c'
ing, but without understanding."

In 1771, Sam Adams wrote in the -.

not change Ashcroft's language.
The White House later call ed Thomas
and asked if he had that comment on tape.
Thomas said he did not, but that he had
checked it with Ashcroft when it was
made. Thomas then took umbrage when
a White House press spokeswoman said:
"Our understanding is that Mr. Thomas
misquoted Mr. Ashcroft."
Then, Assistant Attorney General for
Civil Rights Ralph Boyd said in a letter to
Janles Zogby: "We can assure you that the
remarks ... do not accurately reflect the
attorney general's views."
·
That response, says Zogby, is "not a clear
repudiation of the remarks," and as those
remarks "have circulated on the Web, we
have seen an increase in hate mail ...
including statements of support for the
views attributed to Attorney General
Ashcroft." Among them: "Kill The Godless
Arabs!" "I wholeheartedly agree with
Attorney General Ashcroft. Islam is a
nation that is sending murderers·throughout the world to kill and maim innocent
people."

Social Security benefits can
provide much needed financial support for you or your
family when you retire, if you
become disabled or when
you die. The Social Security
· Benefits Planner found at
www.ssa.gov/planners
is
designed to help you better
understand your Social Security benefits as you plan for
your financial future.
.The Planner contains sections dealing with retirement, disability and survivors
benefits, making it a useful
tool for people of all ages. A
benefit calculator permits
you to use different assumptions about your future work
to see how they may affect
your benefit amounts.
The retirement section will
help you learn how you qualifY for Social Security retirement benefits, which members of your family may get
benefits and when you
should apply: You can also
link to outside websites that
discuss other sources of
retirement income and postretirement concerns such as
housing, medical care and
leisure activities.
What if you are disabled
before you I:~ad1 L'l:tirement
age? The Planner explains
how you and your family
may qualify for benefits if
you become severely disabled
before you qualifY for retirement benefits. Even very
fYoung workers already may
have earned disability protec•

tion.
What help is available for
survivors? This section helps
you learn about survivors
benefits from two sides: First,
how your family members
are protected when you die
and second, how you may
qualify as a survivor on
someone else's Social Security record. This protection is
particularly Important for
young families with children.
In addition, the calculator
is linked to a worksheet
developed by the American
Savings Education Council
that helps you figure .out how
much additional retirement
income you will need to support your current lifestyle.
Each year, we send you a
perso.nal Social Security
Statement, which gives you
an estimate of the monthly
benefit amounts you · and .
your family may qualifY for
now imd in the future. Using
the Statement and the online
Benefits Planner, you can
explore the options available
to you to build financial
security for younelf and your
family using your Social
Security benefits as a base.

Retirement plannins
How you spend your later
years depends largely on how
well you plan for them today.
And with pensions, IRAs,
401ks and other s~vings and
investments, you'll be able to
spend those years as you'd
like. Remember, Social Security retirement payments can
begin as early as age 62 with

reduced benefits. But if you
retire at age 62, you need to
plan your retirement for a
longer period of ti me.
Make su~e your savings and

BUSINESS MIRROR

Tarijfs on steel imports raise concerns for free trade ·:
BY BRAD FosS
NEWYORK- President Bush's deci. sion to impose tariffS on imported steel
could easily do more harm than good.
Providing temporary relief may have
been a show of compassion to the longsuffering industry, but there are wider economic ramifications - causing prices for
certain U.S. goods to rise while giving
political ammunition to nations that want
to block American- made produ cts from
their own markets.
·
In the short-term, analysts say. the steel
tariffS will probably not have a significantly negative impact on U.S. consumers,
even though industries that rely on this
raw material are certain to pass along the
added costs.
What they do worry about, though, is
that what appears to be an action motivated by domestic politics - . ·appeasing 'voters in steel-producing states such as West
Virginia and Pennsylvania could
severely hamper America's ability to drive
bargains on international trade in the
futute.
And in the meantime, manufacturers
without long-term contracts to buy steel
could find the United States a less afford_able place to ·do business.
The tar iffS, which take effect March 20,
could 1prompt makers of appliances and
other goods with steel components, to
move their plants offShore, said C laude
Barfield, an economist at the American
Enterprise Institute in Washington, a
staunch promoter of free ttade. A more
troublesome aspect of the policy, Barfield

'

added, is that it will weaken the country's
longer-term interests in promoting freetrade.
''The U.S. is pre~sing the rest of the
world to open its markets to imports. In
order to do that, we can't sustain a series of
decisions like this;• Barfield said.
Steel prices are at a 20-year low, and
more than 30 U.S: steel mills have filed for
bankruptcy prote.ction since the end of
1997.
The country's newer generation of
mini-mills, which manufacture &lt;tee! from
recycled materials .at smaller plants and
have non-unionized worket1i, have fared
much better _than th e old-line steel companies, which rely on coke and iron ore.
These more traditional manufacturers have
huge debts and expensive legacy costs health care, insurance and other benefits
for retirees.
While a handful of America's trading
parmers, including Canada aqd Mexico,
were given exemptions, others, such as
Smith Korea and the European Union
already promised to challenge the move.
They say it violates the rules of the World
Trade Organization, whjch oversees global trade.
'
Rather than inviting a certain challenge
from the WTO, the U.S. could have made
a case to the Geneva-based agency that its
domestic industry is tHreatened by foreign
steel companies that receive large subsidies
from their governments, said Jagdish Bhagwati, an economist at the Council on Foreign Relations and Ia staurich free-trade
advocate.
.. ,\ .

Still, the fundamental problem with.,
America's steel industry these days has.•
nothing' to do with foreign nations unfair:.,
ly propping up their own companies oF
the illegal "dumping" of cheaper produc.t ;
on our shores, Bhagwati said
The indudstry is simply in need of a dra- 1
matic consolidation, to get ptoductiori ' .
capacity more in line with the world'(
demands.
~
"I don't think three years of tariff pro~'
tection is going to make a whole heck of'
a lot of difference" unless steel makerS .
complete the partial dovirnsizin:g they:
underwent in the late 1970s and early
1980s, said·Mary Deily, an associate profes~_:
sor of economics at Lehigh University
Bethlehem, Pa.
And while the industry prolongs its'
inefficent ways, the costs get passed along'
to consume"' in the form of higher price~·
forproducts made from steel.
&lt;!
"Each of those jobs you save is very'
expensive, if you add up all the costs that:
will be spread out am?ng steel users,' ~
Deily said.
·
Other economists say no matter how;
much they disagree in prind ple with the.
president's decision, they have a hard time;
believing it will cause meaningful distres~
to the U.S. economy.
"I think philosophically you're supposed
to be against it, but I don't believe it will
have profound negative . ~onsequences,'',
said Robert Barbera, 'chief economist a~
Hoenig &amp; Co. in Rye Brook, N.Y.

small businesses but will eventually reinstate an estate tax.
" It's hard to imagine that ·
the federal government is
going to allow a large amount
of wealth to pass through generations without them taking
a piece of it," said Don
Weigandt, vice president for
wealth advisory at J.P. Morgan
Private Bank in Los Angeles.
A case in · point: President
Reagan's 1981 tax cut
reduced the top estate tax rate
from 70 percent to 50 percent
over four years. After three
ye-ars, the top rate fell to 55
percent as scheduled but
Congress froze it there
because revenue needs had
ch~nged just as deficits
now are replacing surpluses in
Washington.
Assuming the tax remains,
Weigandt said there are several strategies to consider. The
most commol'l one is to give
money away during lifetime
to reduce the taxable estate
left at the end.
"If you want to save on
estate taxes, you need to die
with less assets," he said. "It's
kind of tough to time your
last expenditure to your last
breath, so it's better to give
assets away during your lifetime."
...
An individual can give up to
$11,000 away each year to an
unlimited number of people
without incurring gift taxes,
an increase because of an
inflation adjustment from the
$! 0,000 previous limit. There
is no.limit on gifts to a spouse.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Tax breaks for many
families with children get more generous this year,
including a bigger child 'tax credit and larger credits
for adoption of children.
The changes were part of the 10-year, $1.35 tril- ·
lion tax cut enacted last summer by Congress and
President Bush. Credits are generally better for taxpayers than deductions because they amount to a ·
dollar-for-dollar reduction in taxes owed.
The credit for each dependent child under age 17
grows from ·ssoo to $600 for 2001 tax returns. The
credit will stay at $600 through 2004, grow to $700
in 2005 and $800 in 2009, then jump to $1,000 in
2010 .
The new law also made some changes in how
much of the credit is "refundable" - that is, how
much a taxpayer can receive as a refund even if no
lncome taxes are owed.
For 2001, the credit is refundable to the extent of
I 0 percent of a taxpayer's income in excess of
Sl 0,000. In the past, the law required a taxpayer to
have at le~st three children for any of this credit to
be refundable. There is a worksheet and Form 8812
in IRS tax filing packages to figure this out.
Income limits can prevent some taxpayers from
claiming the credit. The total credit ·a mount is
reduced by $50 for each $1,000 of modified adju!ted gross income above $110,000 for married cduples filing jointly and $75,000 for single filers until
it eventually phases out completely.
·
The new tax law a:lso inc.r,eases the adoption tax
credit, which helps families defray the expenses of
adopting a child.
·
.
Since 1997, a credit of up t~ $5,000 has been
available for such costs as travel and legal fees associated with an . adoption. The credit is $6,000 for
adoption of a child w:ith special needs.
Things get even better in 2002. The credit doubles
to $10,000 for all adopted children, including"those
with special needs, and income limits for taxpayers
get more generous.

RIO GRANDE - A
four-game winning streak
went by the wayside as the
Rio Grande baseball team
dropped a 9-8 decision to
West Virginia Tech in the
2002 home opener.
Rio (6-6) jumped out to a
2-0 lead on a two-run home
run by senior leftfielder Josh
McMillen . Tech (3-2) rallied
for three runs in the top of
the third inning to take a 3-2
lead. The Redmen tied the
game at 3- 3 in the bottom of
the third only to see the '
Golden Bears dent the plate
four times in the fourth to
grab a 7-3 lead.
The Redmen cut the
deficit to 7-5 on a Jason
Wheeler two- run blast in the
bottom of the fifth. Rio
would score three times in the
sixth without the benefit of a
hit to gain an 8-7 lead. The
Redmen drew four walks and
two · hit-batsmen m the
inning.
Glen Hannah (0- 1) came in
to get the save but could close
the deal as josh Johnson tied
the game with an RBI double
and he would later score on
an error by Rio third basemen Matt Vandine.
At th e plate for the Redmen,Jake Sperry had two hits
and Wheeler knocked in
three. In addition to his home
run, McMillen had a single, a
stolen base and two runs
scored.
Game two · started and
advanced into the top of the

Estate tax
Tax breaks
exemptions rise ·for families
WASHINGTON (AP) Estate tax exemptions rise and
the top tax rate falls in 2002 as
the tax begins its long march
to repeal at the beginning of
20 I 0 - a situation that opens
up a whole new set of prob·
lems.
The 10-year, $1.35 trillion
tax cut enacted last year will
gradually phase out the esrate
or "d eath" tax over t he next
decade · while increasing the
amount exempt from tax. In
2002, the top tax rate falls
from 55 percent to 50 percent
and the per-person exemption
rises from $675,000 to $1 million; a couple can exempt $2
million with minimal estate
planning.
Looking ahead, the new tax
law scraps the estate tax on
Jan. 1, 2010. Before repFal, the
top tax rate drops only to 45
percent but · the exempt
amount rises to $3.5 million.
But because of a Senate
budget rule, the law ending
the tax expires exactly a year
later, on Jan. 1, 2011 .
That means unless Congress
makes the tax cut permanent,
the estate tax will reappear as
it was in 2001. It also means
that people who expect to
have taxable estates have some
choices to make, based on
what they believe might hap~
pen in the future.
Most estate planners· say it's
wise to assume some inheri. tance tax will be in place, no
matter when you die. Many
believe tha~ Congress will
keep the higher exemptions in
place to protect farmers and

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The new rule that allowed some
teams to play .closer to home in the
early rounds of the
NCAA tournament
made a fairly smooth
entrance with only a couple of complaints.
There were some of the usual arguments that have become part of the
selection process over the years, this
time whether or not Oklahoma
deserved to be a No. 1 seed instead of
a 2, and if Gonzaga was rated too low
as a No.6.
The last of the at-large berths didn't
cause much of a stir since those who
clamor for the teams from the power

conferences lost one (Virginia) as did
those who champion the cause of the
mid-majors (Butler).
The West Regional was quickly
crowned the ,toughest of the four with
an impressive top six seeds; Cincinnati, Oklahoma. Arizona, Ohio State,
Miami and Gonzaga.
Pittsburgh, the third seed in South,
benefitted most from the attempt to
keep teams close to campus .The Panthers can cab it to Mellon Arena in
their own city for an opening- round
game against Central Connecticut
State.
Their possible opponent in the next
round is one of the schools that might

have gained the most from the new
rule. Pennsylvania will travel crossstate as a No. 11 seed to face California, which will bring its No. 6 seed
across the country.
. Another team ·that has a long way to
go to face a team seeded well below it
is Wake Forest, the No. 7 in the Midwest that will go to Sacramento,
Calif., to play No. I 0 Pepperdine.
With the complaints, comments
and criticisms out of the way it's time
to .try and figure out who is going to
Atlanta for the Final Four.
Recent history takes care of four
games right off the bat. In the last
three years, the No. 8 and No. 9 seeds

have alternated sweeping each other.
It started with the Ys going 4-0 in
1999.That means Wisconsin , Stanford,
Notre Dame an&lt;;! UCLA can keep

double-digit seedings won first- round
games. Last year that number jumped
to nine with two each of the I Os

That number can't increase that

Falcons left.out of NCAA's desPite 24 wins
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

The best Bowling Green can hope
for now is the NIT title.
The Falcons (24-8)
were left out of the
NCAA
tournament
field of 65 Sunday
despite finishing second to Kent State
in both the "Mid-American Conference regular-season standings and the
MAC tournament.
Bowling Green coach Dan Dakich
was undet'itandably disappointed. His
. team won more games this season than
the four Big 10 regular season co-

MAC

chan1pions 'and the Pac-1 0 champion.
" I feel like you could put us up
against some of the teams in the tournament and you could make a pr;tty
good case for us," Dakich said." I look
at some of the teams and I see 18, 19-wins. Granted, there's different levels, I
understand."
Now. while teams like Michigan
State . (19- 11) and Missouri (21-11)
prepare for their first-round NCAA
games, the falcons will travel to lndianapolis on Thursday to play Butler
(25-5) in the first round of the NIT.

The only other Ohio team to make
the NIT's 40-team field, Dayton, will
play host to Detroit on Wednesday.
Dakich is happy his team gets to
keep playing.
"We'll play as hard as we can play,"
he said . "We'll give it a hell of a run."
While the Falcons did win a lot,
they didn't win many games against
major conference teams . Bowling
Green beat M~sissippi and Michigan
and lost to Washington in their only
three games against teams from the
major conferences.

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Even if they don't make the playoffs, the Los
Angeles Clippers are burying their loser
image;
By winning 95-78 in Cleveland on Sunday,
the Clippers improved to 32-31
and surpassed last year's victory
total of 31. Although they still
trail Utah by 2 1/2 games for
the final Western Conference playoff spot, the
Clippers are becoming a team to reckon with.
"We can't relax," Jeff Mcltmis said. "People
get ready now for the Clippers."
.
Mcinnis finished with 10 points, nine assists
and eight rebounds for Los Angeles. Eltori
Brand had 17 points and 14 rebounds against
the uninspired Cavaliers.
"We're moving in the right direction,"
coach Alvin· Gentry said. "We set a goal to
make the playoffs at the start of the year and
that's what we're working toward."
The Cavs (23-40) aren't working toward
anything so lofty.
HORNETS 88, SUNS 82
Jamal Mashburn keyed a decisive 20-3 sec..
ond-period run. Charlotte built a 22-point
lead in the third period, then survived a furious Phoenix rally in en.ding a three-game losing streak.
Mashburn led the visitors with 26 point,,
including three baskets in the final three minutes after the Suns whittled the huge deficit to
77-74 .. Baron .Davis had 18 points and 11
assists.for Charlotte.
Shawn Marion t~pped the Suns with 27
points, going 11-for-11 at the foul line, and 13
rebounds.
KiNGS 98, BUCKS 73
Peja Stojakovic scored 21 points and Chris
Webber had 20 points and 15 rebounds.

Georgetown stays tlonie rather than.travel NIT
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The fact that the Falcons could only
get three games against major conference teams - two of them in the
Great Alaska Shootout - is a ~ore
point for Dakich .
"That's the biggest handicap b(•ing
at DGSU without being able to buy
teams and not be able to get teams to
come here," Dakich said. " It'~ a f.1 miliar lament most mid -majors have."
The Falcons have J(/f) t made the
NCAA tournament since 1968, a
streak that Daki ch feels his team co uld
have broken this year.

POMEROY - You know when you see
shamrocks plastering the walls of your favorite
local business establishments that St. Patrick's
Day must be just a short time away.
It's that time of year when customers are
"sharing the green" to help defeat more than
40 neuromuscular' diseases covered by the
Muscular Dystrophy Association ..·
The "Shamrocks against Dystrophy" program, which started 19 years ago, helps to provide the MDA with money to look to the
future through research, while providing
codats victims with vital services..
.It's made St. Patrick's Day more than a fun
holiday where leprechauns, lucky charms, .
wearing of the green, and Irish beer take center stage, to one of concern and compassion to
help the million ofAmericans living with m usde-wasting diseases.
Over the past few weeks local supermarkets,
convenience stores and other retail outlets have

participated in the shamrocks program.
Although the campaign officially concludes on
Sunday, St. Patrick's Day, some businesses plan
to extend it to the end of March . ·
l n exchange for SI, patrons are being given
personalized shamrocks to be hung in a prominent place as a sign that they bred enough to
gwe.
Year after year thousands of dollars are raised
for .MDA in Meigs County through the Shamrocks Against Dystrophy program - money
which will become a part of the S10 million
expected to be collected nationwide through
this conununity-based program.
MDA, a voluntary health agency which
works through 230 MDA clinics nationwide,
last year provided more than a S100 million in
funding toward treatment and research programs.
It was one of the first non-profit organizations honored by the American Medical Association with a Lifetime Achievement Award for
significant and lasting contributions to the
health and welfare of humanity.
To become a part of that success is easy. Just
give a dollar for a shamrock when you go
through a checkout line.

POMEROY - Permission to seek bids for a new
fire/pumper truck was granted during Pomeroy Vill~ge
Council's regular meeting on Monday.
Pomeroy Fire Chief Rick Biaettnar met with council to
discuss the possibility oflqoking into bids for a new pumpet
truck for the fire department.
Biaettnar informed council the fire department is
attempting to obtain a $200,000 FEMA grallt that would
go toward the purchase of a new pumper truck and that
securing bids now would help speed the grants application
process.
Council agreed to let Blaettnar seek bids for a new truck,
however, reminded him that council's decision does not
mean the truck will be purchased by the village.
In other matters, council also:
·
• approved an ordinance to increase wages for salary
employees;.
• approved an ordinance to increase wages for the
clerk/ treasurer;
• approved an ordinance to increase wages for hourly
.
.
employees.
The aforementioned ordinances will take effect Saturday.
