COLUMBUS (AP) - Changing how Ohio funds schools and measures schoolchildren's academic performance dominated the agenda for Gov. Bob Taft's third State of the State · speech Wednesday. . The noon speech midway through Taft's first term was pivotal because a 'court mandate is forcing more spending on education just as the . slowing economy forces the governor to sell across-the-board cuts in the rest of the budget. Taft proposed a five-point plan to improve academic standards and assessment, early childhood education, school facilities, teacher training and student-funding levels. The governor proposed spending an additional $808 million over two years to: • Raise the base amount of per pupil spending above the current. S4 .200 a year. • Increase state support for other basic costs such as transportation. . • Expand funding for Ohio special education students. • Offer state funding for ail-day kindergarten to more than 50 school districts serving 12,000 children. "Enabling every child to succeed is my No. I priority," Taft said. "It drives our agenda and fuels my enthusiasm." Taft also proposed using surplus welfare funds from the state's pool of federal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families money to help poor and low-income Ohioans facing highheating bills. A shortage of natural gas combined with incrlas~d demand and an unusually cold weather have caused a spike in heating bills. Ohio has until June 15 to respond to an Ohio Supreme . Court ruling that the state's schoolfunding system is unconstitutional because its reliance on local property taxes leaves poor districts at a disadvantage. · The speech also gave the governor an opportunity to announce that his $50 million OhioReads program has recruited more than 20,000 volunteers - surpassing the goal Taft set when he took office in January 1999. Besides education, other issues for Taft to discuss were: I • Ways the state can help LTV Steel Co., Heating bills putting strarigl~ on some families 1.C-row's ' 992-2121 PliiM I i i Mayor, Pap AJ . .

Homeowners heating with oil will pay about 40 percent more. The sticker shock is being felt around Ohio. Zenovia Whatley, of Cleveland, has seen her monthly heating bill jump from less than $250 to U?S. · The 61-year-old Vloman, who lives ,, in a three-bedroom frame house witb her five grandchildren, has covered the wind<;~ws with, plastic and placed rugs and blankets at the bottom of her closed doors to try to conserve heat. Whatley said she has gotten behind in paying her other bills because of the high cost of heat. "It's-taken away so much from other things," she said. "We have to cut down pn food . I'm hoping for warmer weather soon." In Wilberforce near Dayto-n, Stacey Groves' h,eating bill went from $89 to $190 in one month. That meant no ,., potato chips or cereal for her two chi!. dren, no ticket to the movie "Cast Away" for her, and keeping the thermostat set on 62 degrees. Diana Brothers, of Maineville in southwest Ohio, lives in a 100"year-old farmhouse and depends on a monthly Social Security check of $722 as ,her only source of income. The 65- yearold woman recently paid $350 to fill her furnace with heating oil. Turning the heat down is not a·n option for Brothers, a cancer survivor who has suffered several strokes and . remains on blood-thinner medication. "If I keep it below 70 degrees, I just get too cold," Brothers said. ''With all of my health problems, I don't need to be worrying about heat ." .. 'lbda(s Sentinel 2 S1ttla111- 12 ......

In 1980, a fedora! judge found that the city had tried to exclude blacks from living in Parma and ordered changes.

The af!luent subutb was targeted for the leaflets because an AK Steel executive lives there. Middletown-based AK Steel and the union have been embroiled in a bitter dispute at the company's plant in Marufield for more than 16 months. The leaflets criticized AK Stl!el's conduct in Mansfield, and alleged that the company repeatedly ignores federal pollution standards: The stl!elworkers said Indian Hill's refusal to allow distribution of union leaflets is unconstitutional. The village solicitor did not return a· call· seeking comment Tuesgay.

"We're going to continue to demand respect for our right · to speak out agairut these injustices." Attorney Robert Newman said the village ordinance violates the First Amendment in two ways: - It allows accreditt-d repr<sentatives of charities, churches or political parties to conduct doort<>:-door soliCitation by permit but does not allow for solicitation by members of a labor union. - It gives police too much discretion to determine who is · given permission to enter private property for door-to-door solicitation.

The af!luent subutb was targeted for the leaflets because an AK Steel executive lives there. Middletown-based AK Steel and the union have been embroiled in a bitter dispute at the company's plant in Marufield for more than 16 months. The leaflets criticized AK Stl!el's conduct in Mansfield, and alleged that the company repeatedly ignores federal pollution standards: The stl!elworkers said Indian Hill's refusal to allow distribution of union leaflets is unconstitutional.

They also point to his having battled with federal courts, as Missouri governor, over the desegregation of Kansas City schools ... . What they don't take into account are the facts that Mr. Ashcroft voted to confirm 26 of 28 black judicial appointees before him, initiate~ the Martin Luther King Day observance in Missouri and su~ported the historically minority Lincoln College. .

And the man who will be forever remembered for the disgrace he brought upon the highest office in the land retires to private life, hoping to avoid · the further ignominy of a post-presidency criminal indictment. Clinton hagiographers will claim his presidency a success; they will note that he left office with a higher job approval rating than any outgoing president in the past half-century. Yet, more than two-thirds of Americans say the two-term president will be remembered for his involvement in personal scandal rather than for accomplishments in office, according to a . CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll. More than half of Americans say they disapprove of Clinton as a person. More than half find jlim dishonest and untrustworthy. · This is the Clinton legacy. His was the most polarizing presidency in at least a quarter-century. He leaves behind a nation far more divided - between white and black, rich and poor, old and young, male and female, religious and agnostic, gay and straight, Democratic and Republican - than it was eight. yean ago,• before he left Little Rock for Washington. Indeed, no sooner did Clinton move into the Oval Office in 1993 than he lifted the military's long-standing ban on homosexuals serving · openly in the military. Rather than go about it in a thoughtful, deliberate way - by, say, asking the Pentagon brass to study the matter for a few months, then return with recommendations for implementing the policy - he forced it upon the military.

They cite his reservations about affirmative action and opposition to Ronnie White, a prominent black nominee to the federal bench. They also point to his having battled with federal courts, as Missouri governor, over the desegregation of Kansas City schools ... . What they don't take into account are the facts that Mr. Ashcroft voted to confirm 26 of 28 black judicial appointees before him, initiate~ the Martin Luther King Day observance in Missouri and su~ported the historically minority Lincoln College. . While John Ashcroft would not have been our first choice for attorney general, he is the choice of our president-elect. Mr. Bush has the right to select the Cabinet he chooses ·and the duty to stand by his selections during even the rockiest of confirmations. :.. If Mr. Ashcroft holds steady, much of the opposition will wither, and what does not will be revealed as nothing more than a critique of his politics by those who do n()t share them.

Clinton hagiographers will claim his presidency a success; they will note that he left office with a higher job approval rating than any outgoing president in the past half-century. Yet, more than two-thirds of Americans say the two-term president will be remembered for his involvement in personal scandal rather than for accomplishments in office, according to a . CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll. More than half of Americans say they disapprove of Clinton as a person. More than half find jlim dishonest and untrustworthy. · This is the Clinton legacy. His was the most polarizing presidency in at least a quarter-century. He leaves behind a nation far more divided - between white and black, rich and poor, old and young, male and female, religious and agnostic, gay and straight, Democratic and Republican - than it was eight. yean ago,• before he left Little Rock for Washington. Indeed, no sooner did Clinton move into the Oval Office in 1993 than he lifted the military's long-standing ban on homosexuals serving · openly in the military. Rather than go about it in a thoughtful, deliberate way - by, say, asking the Pentagon brass to study the matter for a few months, then return with recommendations for implementing the policy - he forced it upon the military.

In that stretch, Marietta's Aaron .Sutton hit two treys, including a buzzer-beater to · give the Tigers a 38-26 advantage at the half. "I took a timeout to get us in a little 'different set offensively," said Blain. "I think we were down two and there was maybe a minute and a halfleft and they went on a run in the last minute of the half and we went in at half down 12. We played better in the second half, but that was too much ·of a deficit to climb out of. They have a nice team. When you get down 12 to a team like that, it's hard to get back."

When a team is quick, they usually don't have a great deal of height. Logan, on the other hand, has both and has wed it to near per- · fection this season. On Tuesday, the Chieftains used it to defeat River Valley, 68-47. The Raiders lost in their first meeting of ther season to the Chieftains, 65-31 at Logan. "They're bigger, stronger and quicker than us;· said River Valley head coach Gene Layton. "They came out here tonight with a lot of intensity." Logan didn't take long to control the game, either. On a balanced scoring attack, the Chieftains went an a 9-0 run before jumping out to a 15-2 lead with around three minutes left in the opening period. "They put pressure on us, forced sollle turnovers which got them off ro that big start," said Layton. Logan increased it's lead to 3721 at halftime. "We were down II at the end of the first quarter," said Layton. "They streched it out there to 16, 17 at the half.
