Davis was tab~d honor.1ble
mention.
Copas has . experienced
championship caliber basketball in the past, leading North
Adams High School to the
OHSM final four as a senio(.
"I think it's kind of similar,
but the ulent's better," he said
when asked to compare the
scenarios. "You have to get up
a little ·more fo it. And that's
been a while ago, so it's have
something refreshing like that
t6 come back to.
"You never think you get a
chance to actually play for
some type of a championship
like that, and rarely you do, so
when you do, you have to
che rish it."
Prior to coming to Rio

Grande, Copas played one
year at Edison State Community College in the Dayton
area, then spent over a year
• away from the game.
Davis came to Rio Grande
from Tolsia High School in
West Virginia, and ·walked
into a situation which saw the
Redmen program plun ged
into three years of probation .
Davis said this trip to the

RAVENNA (AP) - Karen Lupton covered her eyes and
wept when a jury found her innocent of two counts of using a
minor's nudity in photographs.
''I'm glad this is all over," Lupton said after the verdicts on the
charges concerning photos of her 6-year-old daughter.
It was her second trial based on photographs that showed the
girl naked from the waist down.
"Karen Lupton did not commit a criminal offense in taking

AP STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT

COLUMBUS
Hundreds of
Ohioans, from leading politicians to
schoolchildren; paid respects Wednesday
to the state's longest
serving governor,James
Rhodes, who died
Sunday at age 91.
In the morning, they
viewed the governor in
an open casket placed
in the center of the
Statehouse rotunda, a
bouquet of roses on
Rhodes
each side . .
In the afternoon,
Gov. Bob Tali:, U.S. Sen. George Voinovich
and dozens of other current and former
lawnukers offered their remembrances of
Rhodes, whose four four-year terms tied
the longest tenure of any U.S. governor.
Ohio "gained so much from his leadership," Tali: said. " He knew what people
wanted, and he gave it to them, and if they
didn't know whai they wanted, he 'd teU
then1 what they needed."
.
Earlier at the viewing, Mary Molter, 66,
of Columbus, wept as she remembered
the governor she called "the great man."
Molter· said she used to look for Rhodes
at the Ohio State Fair each year.

"You didn't have to be some kind of
official for him to talk to you;· Molter
said. "I went to the fair every year and he
was always there, and 1 knew that, and so
I'd always kind of look for him. We
wouldn't have long conversation, he'd
.always say, 'Hi, are you e!Jioying the fairl'"
During almost three hours of official
remembrances of Rhodes Wednesday,
there was no mention of his May 1970
decision to send National Guard troops to
Kent State University to quell anti-Vietnam War protests. Four students were.
kilied when tha troops opened fire.
The closest reference to that event was
a remark by former House Speaker
Charles Kurfes• to lawmakers.
''There were, are and historically will be
his detractors, and there were some sad
detractions during his service, but none
can deny the impact he's had on this state
and its people," Kurfess said.
During the. morning viewing, Rhodes'
son-in-L&gt;w, William Markham, sat on a
bench near the c:asket and received condolences &amp;om visitors. Markham, of Ft.
Lauderdale, 'Fla., said he wosn't surprised
by the number conting to view Rhodes.
"I think respect , for the governor
reached all levels of society and the state
and across the country," said Markham;
who is married to Rhodes' daughter

Sharon. "He was a hero to all kinds of
people."
House and Senate lawmakers met in a
rare joint session hter Wednesday to
honor Rhodes with a resolution and
remarks. Join~ sessions usually are reserved
for a gmiernor's State of the State speech.
"He just loved being governor, becall!e
he loved the people of Ohio, he literally
loved the people of Ohio," said former
House lawmaker William Batchelder; a
Republican who served more than 30
·years.
"He brought a style to .the office ~at
probably hadn't been rhere before :md
probably won't be there again, that got
things done regardless of the polincs and
regardless of the controversy or the issue,"
said Sen. Mike Shoemaker.
About 550 people attended an invitation-only memorial service in wJU:ch
Rhodes was remeri1bered a~ a man who
loved Ohio, but never put his work ahead
of his family.
Taft recaUed visiting President Reagan
in 1986, when he was Rhodes' running
mate during his final, unsuccessful, campaign for governor. Reagan made himself
avaiL&gt;ble for photos with candidates &amp;om
across the country, but Rhodes was the
only one to bring his children and grandchildren.

Taft's office asked director to rewrite memo
COLUMBUS (AP) - Gov.
Bob Taft's top aides asked the
state's former human strvices
director to rewrite a memo
explaiiting probl~ms with the
state's troubled child-support
system; a Taft spokeswoman
·
said.
The Feb. · 10 memo by
Jacqueline Romer-Sensky clidn't set an appropriate deadline
for dealing with the problems
and was "ambiguously wOrded;' spokeswoman Mary Anne
Sharkey said,Wednesday.
Romer-Sensky,
former
director of the Ohio Department of Job and family Services, resigned Friday after
weeks of controversy related to
the department's child support
sy1tem.
In the memo's first version,
Romer-Sensky said she would
have a "methodology" in place
by April 1 to address the state's
\vithholding of millions of dollars in child support payments. '
Sharkey said that was unacc~ptable, since the gbvernor
wanted a plan in place as sqon
as possible.
Taft's chief of staff, Brian
Hicks, and the governor's executive assiStant for hea\th and
ltum.tn services, Greg Moody,
· also were co 11c~rMd .about
ambiguous language in the
memo, Sharkey said.

.

,

In asking for the change,
Hicks and Moody wanted to
make clear that while Taft knew
there were many problems with
the department and the child
support system, he was not
aware that money had been
withheld from parents.

Sharkey said the original
memo did not make that clear.
Department spokesman Jon
Allen .said the memo was an
issue between Romer-Sensky
and the goVernor's office.
Romer-Sensky could not be
reached for comment':

Jury dears mom of charges
RAVENNA (AP) - Karen Lupton covered her eyes and
wept when a jury found her innocent of two counts of using a
minor's nudity in photographs.
''I'm glad this is all over," Lupton said after the verdicts on the
charges concerning photos of her 6-year-old daughter.
It was her second trial based on photographs that showed the
girl naked from the waist down.
"Karen Lupton did not commit a criminal offense in taking
those phorographs;' her attorney, James D. Ingalls, said after ihe
verdicts Monday evening.

State stops soil testing
MARtON (AP) - State environmental officials said they no
longer would test soil samples at the River Valley schools campus.
River Valley's high school and middle school are being relocated because of environmental contamination discovered by
state apd federal investigators after a high rate of leukemia was
found among River Valley graduates in 1997.
The campus is built on a former ntilitary depot where chemicals routinely were dumped on the ground.
" Wo feel we have as much information as we need ," said

AP STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT

COLUMBUS
Hundreds of
Ohioans, from leading politicians to
schoolchildren; paid respects Wednesday
to the state's longest
serving governor,James
Rhodes, who died
Sunday at age 91.
In the morning, they
viewed the governor in
an open casket placed
in the center of the
Statehouse rotunda, a
bouquet of roses on
Rhodes
each side . .
In the afternoon,
Gov. Bob Tali:, U.S. Sen. George Voinovich
and dozens of other current and former
lawnukers offered their remembrances of
Rhodes, whose four four-year terms tied
the longest tenure of any U.S. governor.
Ohio "gained so much from his leadership," Tali: said. " He knew what people
wanted, and he gave it to them, and if they
didn't know whai they wanted, he 'd teU
then1 what they needed."
.
Earlier at the viewing, Mary Molter, 66,
of Columbus, wept as she remembered
the governor she called "the great man."
Molter· said she used to look for Rhodes
at the Ohio State Fair each year.

"You didn't have to be some kind of
official for him to talk to you;· Molter
said. "I went to the fair every year and he
was always there, and 1 knew that, and so
I'd always kind of look for him. We
wouldn't have long conversation, he'd
.always say, 'Hi, are you e!Jioying the fairl'"
During almost three hours of official
remembrances of Rhodes Wednesday,
there was no mention of his May 1970
decision to send National Guard troops to
Kent State University to quell anti-Vietnam War protests. Four students were.
kilied when tha troops opened fire.
The closest reference to that event was
a remark by former House Speaker
Charles Kurfes• to lawmakers.
''There were, are and historically will be
his detractors, and there were some sad
detractions during his service, but none
can deny the impact he's had on this state
and its people," Kurfess said.
During the. morning viewing, Rhodes'
son-in-L&gt;w, William Markham, sat on a
bench near the c:asket and received condolences &amp;om visitors. Markham, of Ft.
Lauderdale, 'Fla., said he wosn't surprised
by the number conting to view Rhodes.
"I think respect , for the governor
reached all levels of society and the state
and across the country," said Markham;
who is married to Rhodes' daughter

Sharon. "He was a hero to all kinds of
people."
House and Senate lawmakers met in a
rare joint session hter Wednesday to
honor Rhodes with a resolution and
remarks. Join~ sessions usually are reserved
for a gmiernor's State of the State speech.
"He just loved being governor, becall!e
he loved the people of Ohio, he literally
loved the people of Ohio," said former
House lawmaker William Batchelder; a
Republican who served more than 30
·years.
"He brought a style to .the office ~at
probably hadn't been rhere before :md
probably won't be there again, that got
things done regardless of the polincs and
regardless of the controversy or the issue,"
said Sen. Mike Shoemaker.
About 550 people attended an invitation-only memorial service in wJU:ch
Rhodes was remeri1bered a~ a man who
loved Ohio, but never put his work ahead
of his family.
Taft recaUed visiting President Reagan
in 1986, when he was Rhodes' running
mate during his final, unsuccessful, campaign for governor. Reagan made himself
avaiL&gt;ble for photos with candidates &amp;om
across the country, but Rhodes was the
only one to bring his children and grandchildren.

Taft's office asked director to rewrite memo
COLUMBUS (AP) - Gov.
Bob Taft's top aides asked the
state's former human strvices
director to rewrite a memo
explaiiting probl~ms with the
state's troubled child-support
system; a Taft spokeswoman
·
said.
The Feb. · 10 memo by
Jacqueline Romer-Sensky clidn't set an appropriate deadline
for dealing with the problems
and was "ambiguously wOrded;' spokeswoman Mary Anne
Sharkey said,Wednesday.
Romer-Sensky,
former
director of the Ohio Department of Job and family Services, resigned Friday after
weeks of controversy related to
the department's child support
sy1tem.
In the memo's first version,
Romer-Sensky said she would
have a "methodology" in place
by April 1 to address the state's
\vithholding of millions of dollars in child support payments. '
Sharkey said that was unacc~ptable, since the gbvernor
wanted a plan in place as sqon
as possible.
Taft's chief of staff, Brian
Hicks, and the governor's executive assiStant for hea\th and
ltum.tn services, Greg Moody,
· also were co 11c~rMd .about
ambiguous language in the
memo, Sharkey said.

.

,

In asking for the change,
Hicks and Moody wanted to
make clear that while Taft knew
there were many problems with
the department and the child
support system, he was not
aware that money had been
withheld from parents.

Sharkey said the original
memo did not make that clear.
Department spokesman Jon
Allen .said the memo was an
issue between Romer-Sensky
and the goVernor's office.
Romer-Sensky could not be
reached for comment':

I

• The Seattle Times, on restricting cell phone use
among motorists: .A motorist tries to change lanes on
the highway when another driver, yammering on a
cell phone, cuts in front, nearly causing a wreck.
Good grief. Hang up and drive.
Cell-phone frustrations have moved from bumper ·
stickers to legislation. Thirty-five states, including
Washington, are considering bills to restrict handheld car phones. Three bills in Olympia have limited
chance of success this year, bLit something has. to give.
One bill would impose a $35 fine on a driver using
a cell phone that leads to a crash. The other would
bart hand-held cell phones, with exceptions for
motorists reporting drunken drivers or summoning
emergency help. Another WOl,lld phase in hands-free
car phones over three years ....
This issue is ripe for compromise. With 110 million
cell-phone users, and more signing up every day, cell
phones are here to stay. They save lives; they're a con- ·
venience people won't give up. ...
The best approach is a presumption of negligence
ott the cell-phone user. Nebraska is considering such
a bill. That combined with a move toward more
hands-free phoning is a smart way to go.
A law that presumes negligence for cell-phone
users places responsibility where it belongs: the person who bet he or she could talk and drive safely at
the same time.

TODAY IN HISTORY
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Today is Thursday, March 8, the 67th day of2001. There are
·
298 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
On March 8, 1854, U.S. Commodore Matthew
Perry
made his second landing in Japan. Within a month, he concluded a treary with the Japanese.
On this date:
In 1702, England's Queen Anne ascended the throne after
the death of King William Ill.
.
In 1841, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.,
the "Great Dissenter;• was born in Boston.
In 1874, the 13th president of the United States, Millard Fillmore, died in Buffalo, New York.
In 1917, Russia's "February Revolution" began with rioting
and strikes in St. Petersburg.
In 1917, the U.S. Senate voted to limit filibusters by adopting the cloture rule.
In 1930, the 27th president of the United States, William
Howard Taft, died in Washington.
In 1942, Japanese forces captured Rangoon, Burma, during
World War II.
In 1965, the United States landed about 3,500 Marines in
South Vietnam.'
In 1986, four French television crew members wete abducted in west Beirut. A caller claimed Islamic Jihad was responsi- ·
ble. (All four were eventually released.)
In 1999, New York Yankees baseball star Joe DiMaggio died
in Hollywood, Fla., at age 84.
Ten years ago: Planeload after planeload of U.S. troops
arrived home from the Persian Gulf to an emotional welcome
from relatives. Iraq handed over 40 foreign journalists and two
American soldiers whom it had captured.
Five years ago:Wall Street plummeted in a major sell-off triggered by seemingly good economic news - a drop in the
nation's unemployment rate and the biggest jo&amp;s gain in more
than a decade. (Investors apparendy worried ·that a stronger
economy would mean no more interest rate cuts from the Fed,Reserve.) Dr. Jack Kevorkian was acquitted of assisted sui~
cide for helping two ·suffering patients kill themselves.
One ye~r ago: President Clinton submitted to Congress leg·
islation to establish permanent normal trade relatiom with
China. A letter carrier, two firefighters and a sheriff's depury
were shot to death in Memphis, Tenn., allegedly by the letter
carrier's husband, who was also a firefighter.

4. We think you look great, even
when you lose your hair. Combing
one side over the top is not an
improvement. It looks stupid, and we
are embarrassed for you.
5. We cannot read your mind. If
you are angry, tell us why. Don't hide
in front of the computer or TV and
pout. When we ask where you want
to go for dinner, don 't say, " I ·don't
care." It's childish.

6. If you need our help to buy a
gift for your secretary or set· up a
dinner for your mother, please don't
ask us at the last minute. We need
time to do it right.
7. Look around the house and see
what needs to be fixed, and then, ·
DO IT. We appreciate a man who
takes care of his home. Just stay away
from our tweezers, kitchen appliances, cuticle scissors and other personal items. Don't use them to cur
carpet or mix pain't.
8. The way to pur heartS is
through consideration. Cook a meal
once in a while. Wash the dishes.
Give the kids a bath. Women love it
when a man does these things without being asked.
9. We know shopping is nor your
idea ofa .good time, but you should

we have a headache, it's true. Don't
get bent out of shape. Offer us an
aspirin, and tell us to get some rest.
We might feel better later, and your
chances will be a lor better. -- Lynn

Dear Lynn: Your suggestions are
A-Number-Orie-Super.You've covered all the bases. If the males who
read this follow your instructions,
they will be rewarded handsomely.
Count on it.
Dear Ann Landers: When I
read the letter from " Feeling Stupid
in Alabama," 1 saw a lot of myself.
She said she liked to spend money
whenever · she f~t " down ." I, too,
went shopping when I was feeling
depressed.Then I realized l was only
fueling my depressio n by getting
further and further into debt. I
found a solution fo r my spending

needs, and hope 'it will help others.
I still love to shop, but have found
another way to do it. When the urge
strikes, I fill my pockets with singles .
and change (up to $10 --no more),
and hir every garage sale I can find.
I spend until the money is gone.
This satisfies my need to shop but
does not destroy the family budget.
I still get a litde anxious when I
enter a department store, but I am
better able to control my urges,
knowing I can have a S10 spending
spree on the weekend. -- Out of
Debt in Florida
Dear Florida: Your solution is
sane, sensible and practical, although
the "shopper" must be willing to
admit she has a problem and have
the discipline to stick tO the S10
limit. Thanks for caring enough
about your out-of-control sisters to
write. I hope they liste n.

KONDRACKE'S VIEW

Bush, Congress should prepare for lean years
This town needs somebody to play
Joseph, the Old Testament character who,
as Pharaoh's budget director, made Egypt
save during its seven fat years so it could
survive the lean years that followed.
To secure the retirement of the babyboom generation, lawmakers should help
workers set up private saving; accounts
before voting on tax cu!S or spending

mcreases.
Both President Bush and Congressional Democrats claim they want to make
prudent use of the nation's anticipated
$5.6 trillion surplus - while accusing
each other of wasting it. But both sides are
thinking only about the next 10 fat years,
not the 30-odd lean years to follow.
In the Bible, Joseph foresaw Egypt's
future by interpreting Pharaoh's dream,
but the United States' future can be foretold, at least partly. by loolting at demographics: It will take in the neighborhood
of$5 trillion a year to pay retirement benefits in 2040.
The total so-called "unfunded liabiliry"
facing the country for retirement programs from 2015 to 2040 - even assuming no improvement in Medicare benefits
-is about $10 trillion;
Joseph got Egypt to lay aside a 6tth of
its harvest during the fat years as a reserve
for the lean ones, but the United States
has only the vaguest notion of how to
prepare for the boomers' retirement,
much less those of the coming generations.
Both Bush and .the Democrats say they
will Jay aside (in a "lockbox") $2.5 trillion
cif the surplus derived from Social Security to pay down the national debt.
Bush claims that it's entirely possible to
carVe a $1.6 trillion tax cut out of the
remaining $3.1 trillion non-Social Security surplus while increasing spending for
defense, education and medical research
and pro.rl.ding a prescription drug benefit
for Medicare recipients.
·Democrats say it isn't possible and that
Bush is plunging the country back toward
budget deficits. Because both parties want
to lockbox the Medicare surplus of $400

If there is a Joseph around Wasliington
now, the closest to it is Bob Bixby. head of
the Concord Coalition, who recommends
using $1 trillion of the $2.5 trillion Social
Securiry surplus to finance private
accounts,and up to $2 trillion of the nonSocial Securiry surplus to pay down the
debt.
"You can't do a big tax cut, Social Security saving; accounts and big-time debt

But those accounts could help increase
the country's plummeting personal saving; rare --another protection against the
lean years to come.

billion, they say the available surplus is
really $2.7 trillion.
They contend that Bush's tax cut will
cost $2 trillion, counting resultant interest
payments the government will have to
make.
On top of that, Democrats assert, both
parties will want to extend various tax
credits that are due to expire and will
want to prevent middle-income taxpaye.,s
from being forced to pay the alternative
minimum tax designed for the rich - all
of which will cut the surplus down · to
$200 billion or $300 billion.
That, they argue, leaves nowhere near
enough for a prescription drug benefit,
education and defense increases, farm
relief and various emergencies that might
arise.
The Democrats and centrist groups
such as the Concord Coalition make a
good case that Bush's tax rut is too large
- especially when it's not clear thai the
projected surpluses · will materialize. On
paper, the Democrats have a more prudent alternative.
They would devote $900 billion each to
tax cuts, new spending and funding to pay
down some of the $3.2 trillion national
debt faster than can be done using Social
Securiry and Medicare surpluses alone.
The problem is, the $900 billion
Democrats want to devote to paying
·down the debt almost certainly would get
spent on some program or other unless it
is specifically set aside for "the lean years."

• The Seattle Times, on restricting cell phone use
among motorists: .A motorist tries to change lanes on
the highway when another driver, yammering on a
cell phone, cuts in front, nearly causing a wreck.
Good grief. Hang up and drive.
Cell-phone frustrations have moved from bumper ·
stickers to legislation. Thirty-five states, including
Washington, are considering bills to restrict handheld car phones. Three bills in Olympia have limited
chance of success this year, bLit something has. to give.
One bill would impose a $35 fine on a driver using
a cell phone that leads to a crash. The other would
bart hand-held cell phones, with exceptions for
motorists reporting drunken drivers or summoning
emergency help. Another WOl,lld phase in hands-free
car phones over three years ....
This issue is ripe for compromise. With 110 million
cell-phone users, and more signing up every day, cell
phones are here to stay. They save lives; they're a con- ·
venience people won't give up. ...
The best approach is a presumption of negligence
ott the cell-phone user. Nebraska is considering such
a bill. That combined with a move toward more
hands-free phoning is a smart way to go.
A law that presumes negligence for cell-phone
users places responsibility where it belongs: the person who bet he or she could talk and drive safely at
the same time.

KONDRACKE'S VIEW

Bush, Congress should prepare for lean years
This town needs somebody to play
Joseph, the Old Testament character who,
as Pharaoh's budget director, made Egypt
save during its seven fat years so it could
survive the lean years that followed.
To secure the retirement of the babyboom generation, lawmakers should help
workers set up private saving; accounts
before voting on tax cu!S or spending

mcreases.
Both President Bush and Congressional Democrats claim they want to make
prudent use of the nation's anticipated
$5.6 trillion surplus - while accusing
each other of wasting it. But both sides are
thinking only about the next 10 fat years,
not the 30-odd lean years to follow.
In the Bible, Joseph foresaw Egypt's
future by interpreting Pharaoh's dream,
but the United States' future can be foretold, at least partly. by loolting at demographics: It will take in the neighborhood
of$5 trillion a year to pay retirement benefits in 2040.
The total so-called "unfunded liabiliry"
facing the country for retirement programs from 2015 to 2040 - even assuming no improvement in Medicare benefits
-is about $10 trillion;
Joseph got Egypt to lay aside a 6tth of
its harvest during the fat years as a reserve
for the lean ones, but the United States
has only the vaguest notion of how to
prepare for the boomers' retirement,
much less those of the coming generations.
Both Bush and .the Democrats say they
will Jay aside (in a "lockbox") $2.5 trillion
cif the surplus derived from Social Security to pay down the national debt.
Bush claims that it's entirely possible to
carVe a $1.6 trillion tax cut out of the
remaining $3.1 trillion non-Social Security surplus while increasing spending for
defense, education and medical research
and pro.rl.ding a prescription drug benefit
for Medicare recipients.

budget deficits. Because both parties want

retirement burden by · reforming Social
Security, allowing each younger worker to
invest parr of his or her taxes in private
saving; accounts.
This strategy would allow workers to
earn higher interest on their money than
Social Security would ~ap, thereby lightening the burden their children will bear
in supporting their retirements.
The problem is, it will cost an estirnate.d $1 trillion to set up private accounts J money also needed to support current
retirees.
In a new departure, Bush said some of
this money would be available because it's
not possible to fully pay down the .national debt; therefore, some Social Security
surplus money could be used for that purpose.
However, the estimated $500 billion
he's targeting won't be sufficient to cover
the cost. Before spending or tax-cutting

to be an adequate set-'astde for the lean
ones.
.
If there is a Joseph around Wasliington
now, the closest to it is Bob Bixby. head of
the Concord Coalition, who recommends
using $1 trillion of the $2.5 trillion Social
Securiry surplus to finance private
accounts,and up to $2 trillion of the nonSocial Securiry surplus to pay down the
debt.
"You can't do a big tax cut, Social Security saving; accounts and big-time debt
reduction simultaneously;• he said. "One
has to be scaled back, and Bush has chosen to scale back private saving; accounts
for now."
But those accounts could help increase
the country's plummeting personal saving; rare --another protection against the
lean years to come.
"Bush is missing the opporruniry to use
the bully pulpit to be the baby-boom saYior and use today's prosperity to fund
tomorrow's obligatiom," Bixby told me.
Bush is a regular Bible rea,der. For advice,
he should turn to Genesis, Chapter 41.

billion, they say the available surplus is
really $2.7 trillion.
They contend that Bush's tax cut will
cost $2 trillion, counting resultant interest
payments the government will have to
make.
On top of that, Democrats assert, both
parties will want to extend various tax
credits that are due to expire and will
want to prevent middle-income taxpaye.,s
from being forced to pay the alternative
minimum tax designed for the rich - all
of which will cut the surplus down · to
$200 billion or $300 billion.
That, they argue, leaves nowhere near
enough for a prescription drug benefit,
education and defense increases, farm
relief and various emergencies that might
arise.
The Democrats and centrist groups
such as the Concord Coalition make a
good case that Bush's tax rut is too large
- especially when it's not clear thai the
projected surpluses · will materialize. On
paper, the Democrats have a more prudent alternative.
They would devote $900 billion each to
tax cuts, new spending and funding to pay
down some of the $3.2 trillion national
debt faster than can be done using Social
Securiry and Medicare surpluses alone.
The problem is, the $900 billion
Democrats want to devote to paying
·down the debt almost certainly would get

Pomeroy, Middleport, Ohio

Admiral: Faulty equipment, haste contributed to crash
PEAR.., HARBOR, Hawaii (AP)
- Broken equipment, civilian guests
and a rush to get back on schedule
contributed to the fatal collision
between a nuclear submarine and a
Japanese fishing boat, a Navy admiral
testified Wednesday.
A lawyer for the commander of the
USS Greeneville, however, immediately questioned the admiral's findings and said the Navy"s investigation
of the Feb. 9 accident was incomplete
and inaccurate.
"You had son1e time constraints

placed on you that made it difficult
... to do a thorough and complete
investigation," Cmdr. Scott Waddle's
civilian attorney, Charles Gittins, said
in questioning Rear Adm. Charles
Griffiths Jr.
Griffiths conducted the Navy's
preliminary invdtigation. He spent
his third day testifying in a Navy
court of inquiry into why · the
Greeneville hit and sank the Ehime
Maru on Feb. 9, killing nine people.
Gittins began his cross examination

15-year-old charged with l murders
SANTEE, Calif. (AP) -' The 15-yearold suspect in a high school shooting spree
was charged with two counts of murder
Wednesday as hundreds of his fellow students returned to campus to find freshly
patched bullet holes and grief counselors in
every classroom.
Charles i}ndrew " Andy"" Williams,
accused of killing two and wounding 13 in
a hail of small-caliber pistol fire at 1,900student Santana High School in suburban
San Diego, remained silent throughout the
brief, nationally televised hearing.
The boy, who ·has been described by an
investigator as "mad at the world," wore an
orange prison jumpsuit that hung from his
thin frame and sat with his head bowed,
occasionally looking up through tousled
brown bangs at the judge.
Williams didn't enter a plea, and his
arraignment was postponed for two weeks
at the request of his lawyer; Randy Mize.
He will be tried as an adult.

Seats had been reserved for relati,.es of
the two dead Santana students, senior
Randy Gordon and freshman Bryan Zuckor, as well as f.mlilies of'13 injured in the
shootings. But they did not appear in the
otherwise packed the 49-seat courtroom.
Some students from the high school,
including three cheerleaders dressed in
purple and white sweat, S\Iits, attcl"\ded.
"I don't hate !lim for what he did," said
chee rleade r Courtney Gmhaus. "I just
want to know why."
San Diego County S1,1perior Cou rt
Judge Herbert J Exarhos set arraignment
for March 26 and denied ba.il because of
special circumstances contained .in the
.indictment. Special circumstances are
attached to crimes committed with a gun.
Charges include two coun!s of murder
with special circumstances, 13 counts of
premeditated attempted murder apd other
counts alleging assault with a deadly
weapon and firearms possession.

Daschle calls for moratorium

Teen's slayer put to death
HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) - A former used car salesman
was executed Wednesday night for sexually abusing and killing
a teen-ager he picked up at a bowling alley almost 11 years ago.
Dennis Dowthitt, who maintained his innocence, was put to
death by injection, becoming the fifth prisoner to be executed
in Texas this year. The state conducted a record 40 executions
last year.
Dowthitt was condemned for the 1990 rape and fatal slashing
and stabbing of 16-year-old Grace Purnhagen. Grace was an
acquaintance of Dowthitt's son. She and her 9-year-old s~ter,
Tiffany, were killed after accepting a ride home from a bowling
alley with Dwothitt and his son, Delton.

Admiral: Faulty equipment, haste contributed to crash
PEAR.., HARBOR, Hawaii (AP)
- Broken equipment, civilian guests
and a rush to get back on schedule
contributed to the fatal collision
between a nuclear submarine and a
Japanese fishing boat, a Navy admiral
testified Wednesday.
A lawyer for the commander of the
USS Greeneville, however, immediately questioned the admiral's findings and said the Navy"s investigation
of the Feb. 9 accident was incomplete
and inaccurate.
"You had son1e time constraints

placed on you that made it difficult
... to do a thorough and complete
investigation," Cmdr. Scott Waddle's
civilian attorney, Charles Gittins, said
in questioning Rear Adm. Charles
Griffiths Jr.
Griffiths conducted the Navy's
preliminary invdtigation. He spent
his third day testifying in a Navy
court of inquiry into why · the
Greeneville hit and sank the Ehime
Maru on Feb. 9, killing nine people.

15-year-old charged with l murders
SANTEE, Calif. (AP) -' The 15-yearold suspect in a high school shooting spree
was charged with two counts of murder
Wednesday as hundreds of his fellow students returned to campus to find freshly
patched bullet holes and grief counselors in
every classroom.
Charles i}ndrew " Andy"" Williams,
accused of killing two and wounding 13 in
a hail of small-caliber pistol fire at 1,900student Santana High School in suburban
San Diego, remained silent throughout the
brief, nationally televised hearing.
The boy, who ·has been described by an
investigator as "mad at the world," wore an
orange prison jumpsuit that hung from his
thin frame and sat with his head bowed,
occasionally looking up through tousled
brown bangs at the judge.
Williams didn't enter a plea, and his
arraignment was postponed for two weeks
at the request of his lawyer; Randy Mize.
He will be tried as an adult.

Seats had been reserved for relati,.es of
the two dead Santana students, senior
Randy Gordon and freshman Bryan Zuckor, as well as f.mlilies of'13 injured in the
shootings. But they did not appear in the
otherwise packed the 49-seat courtroom.
Some students from the high school,
including three cheerleaders dressed in
purple and white sweat, S\Iits, attcl"\ded.
"I don't hate !lim for what he did," said
chee rleade r Courtney Gmhaus. "I just
want to know why."
San Diego County S1,1perior Cou rt
Judge Herbert J Exarhos set arraignment
for March 26 and denied ba.il because of
special circumstances contained .in the
.indictment. Special circumstances are
attached to crimes committed with a gun.
Charges include two coun!s of murder
with special circumstances, 13 counts of
premeditated attempted murder apd other
counts alleging assault with a deadly
weapon and firearms possession.

Daschle calls for moratorium

Teen's slayer put to death
HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) - A former used car salesman
was executed Wednesday night for sexually abusing and killing
a teen-ager he picked up at a bowling alley almost 11 years ago.
Dennis Dowthitt, who maintained his innocence, was put to
death by injection, becoming the fifth prisoner to be executed
in Texas this year. The state conducted a record 40 executions
last year.
Dowthitt was condemned for the 1990 rape and fatal slashing
and stabbing of 16-year-old Grace Purnhagen. Grace was an
acquaintance of Dowthitt's son. She and her 9-year-old s~ter,
Tiffany, were killed after accepting a ride home from a bowling
alley with Dwothitt and his son, Delton.

Factory orders plunge

WASHINGTON (AP) -A sharp drop in demand for airplanes, cars and other transportation products drove down
orders to U.S. factories to their lowest point in 14 months, providing more evidence of an economic slowdown.

3.8 percent in January, aft~r a 0.6 percent rise the month before.
Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan has blamed much

Elliott enjoys role of being just a driver
HAMPTON, Ga. (AP) - Gone is
the sight of Bill Elliott racing by in his
own Ford bearing the familiar golden
arches of his big-bucks sponsor.
Worrying as much about red ink as
the checkered flag took a toll on one
ofNASCAR's biggest stars, and when
McDonald's pulled the plug at the
end of last season, the 45-year Georgian knew it was time to quit as an
owner-driver.
·
"I don't want to ever own one of
these deals again," said Elliott, who
wound up selling his 6-year-old team
to Ray Evernham and jumping into
one of his new Dodges.
The change of scenery has been

good for Elliott, the circuit's most
popular driver a record 15 times. Out
of a Ford product for the first time in
a quarter of a century, he won the
pole position for the season-opening
Daytona 500 before finishing fifth.
After three races, he's seventh in
points entering Sunday's Cracker Barrei 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
Not bad for a new organization that
has served as the developmental team
for Dodge's return after a 16-year
absence from Winston Cup racing.
"We've still got a few bugs to work
out," Elliott said. "We've still got a few .
·little glitches here and there, but I
think from the standpoint of Ray get-

ring started and what he's had his
hands full with, he's had a mound of
work co do."
Elliot felt that way when he owned
his own team, and it showed in his
performance. He never won in his
own car - almost unthiukable for
someone with 40 career victories.
So, after his sponsor pulled out and
Evernham came calling, Elliott decided it was time to really go racing
again. And, by keeping several key
people from his own team, he is helping Evernham -Jeff Gordon's longtime crew chief- acclimate himself
to the owner's role.
"I think once Ray gets the business

side more squared away, it'D make it
easier on him to concentrate more on
getting with the cars and making
them run faster;• Elliott said.
He's glad ownership is Evernham's
problem.
"These things are so expensive to
run," Elliott said. "It's not doing anything but getting harder and harder
day in and day out. Any time
NASCAR implements a ruJe change,
however small it is, it costs you tons of
money to deal with."

BY ANDREW CARTER
OVP SPORTS EDITOR

ATHENS - Eastern senior Matt Simpso.n gave his club a much needed lift
Wednesday, scoring 25 points to lead the
Eagles to a 55-4 7 victory over Portsmouth
East in the Division IV district semifinals.
Simpson, who scored 12 points in the first
half to keep the Eagles chances of advancing
in the playoffi alive, added 11 points in a
pivotal third quarter as Eastern overcame a
9-point deficit and chen outscored the Tartans 19-9 in the fourth to earn the win.
"We had a little trouble there in the first
half, just getting into a rhythm, I think,"
Simpson said. "After we got ready to play,
we played a little better defense, especially in
the fourth quarter. We struggled on the
offensive en~. but the defense picked us up."
The . Eagles (19-3) will now face

Portsmouth Clay in the district championship Saturday at 9 p.m. at the Convo. Clay
defeated Green 61-56 in overtime last night
to earn its slot opposite Eastern.
"I don't know if it was the lay-off, but we
just didn't ·play very well, especially for two
and a half quarters," said Eastern head coach
Howie. Caldwell. "I'll be honest with you,
we didn't play well, I didn't coach well;
we're just vety fortunate to win this one
tonight."
Eastern opened th·e game looking like a
team that hadn't played a game in 10 days.
The Eagles had not seen action since winning the sectional championship a week ago

Karr. "As freshmen, we went 1-9 in

played all summer in basketball. We

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
- It's March. It's 6 a.m. It's
football . practice at Ohio
State?
·
For the past three weeks on
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, Ohio State football players have been required to be
on the indoor practice field at
the Woody Hayes Athletic
Center, ready to run, by 6
a.m. No excuses.
The players have had such
off-season workouts ·in the
past. But these are taking
place in front of a fre~h set of
eyes, n!&gt;tably those of new
coach Jim Tressel and his staff.
The first impressions?
"The camaraderie is real
strong," nose guard Mike
Collins said. "I like what
coach Tressel has done. It
makes · yo\) excited for this
coming · season, because I
think . things are going to
change, just based on what
I've seen so far."
What he has seen so far is
coaches occasionally , mixing
in with .the players to run
some of the conditioning
drills. And he has seen players
being pushed harder than
before, the mornings always
capped . by a session under
Tressel's direction.
"He's making it fun,"
Collins said. "Even though
you might have six, eight, 10
guys puking right beside you,

it's fun."
That also brings a sense of
purpose, said linebacker Matt ·
Wilhelm.
"We feel that we're climbing a hill out there with these
6 a.m. workouts, and we're
still together, rallying wgeth-

er," he said.
The idea is to push the
players to near exhaustion,
and if they don't reach that
point, "you're not going very
hard,"Tressel said.
Becoming berter, in Tressel's
view, means paying attention
to detail.
"We talk a lot about efficiency: the efficiency of
movement, the discipline of
doing· something exactly
right, doing it perfecdy;• he
said. "If we can get to the
habit of doing everything
perfectly - that's impossible,
I know, but that's what you
should always shoot for then we'll progress."
Tressel's approach includes
much more than wind sprints
and shuttle drills.
"We also. do things that
bring us closer together as a
team," defensive back Richard
McNutt said.
Those things include a piggyback relay race, in which
one player has to carry another 100 yards, and a human
wheelbarrow race, just like

Factory orders plunge

WASHINGTON (AP) -A sharp drop in demand for airplanes, cars and other transportation products drove down
orders to U.S. factories to their lowest point in 14 months, providing more evidence of an economic slowdown.
; The Commerce Department, in its latest snapshot of manufacturing activity, reported Tuesday that all factory orders fell by
3.8 percent in January, aft~r a 0.6 percent rise the month before.
Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan has blamed much
of the economy's weakness on an effort by businesses to cur
back quickly on production in the face of falling sales.

Dallas Cowboys w.Uved Troy
Aikman, no longer convinced
!hat the qqarterback who led
!\lem to three Super Bowl
tiues is healthy enough to be
t))eir starter.
:Cowboys owner Jerry Jones

Aikman retire after 12 seasons
.,.:.:. and 10 concussions - but
his desire to keep playing left
die team with little choice.
. Jones had to make the move
by Thursday or else pay AikJ,nan a $7 million bonus and
extend his contract through
2007. He will still take up $10
million of Dallas' $67.4 million salary cap this season.
Aikman came to Dallas in
1989 as the top overall choice
in the draft and the team's first
pick under Jones and coach
Jimmy Johnson. He was
immediately labeled the franchise's savior and, sure
enough, helped the Cowboys
once again become the NFL's
tnost loved and most loathed
ceam.
&gt; With Aikman, the Cowboys
won an unprecedented three
Super Bowls in four years,
including consecutive titles in

Elliott enjoys role of being just a driver
HAMPTON, Ga. (AP) - Gone is
the sight of Bill Elliott racing by in his
own Ford bearing the familiar golden
arches of his big-bucks sponsor.
Worrying as much about red ink as
the checkered flag took a toll on one
ofNASCAR's biggest stars, and when
McDonald's pulled the plug at the
end of last season, the 45-year Georgian knew it was time to quit as an
owner-driver.
·
"I don't want to ever own one of
these deals again," said Elliott, who
wound up selling his 6-year-old team
to Ray Evernham and jumping into
one of his new Dodges.
The change of scenery has been

good for Elliott, the circuit's most
popular driver a record 15 times. Out
of a Ford product for the first time in
a quarter of a century, he won the
pole position for the season-opening
Daytona 500 before finishing fifth.
After three races, he's seventh in
points entering Sunday's Cracker Barrei 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
Not bad for a new organization that
has served as the developmental team
for Dodge's return after a 16-year
absence from Winston Cup racing.
"We've still got a few bugs to work
out," Elliott said. "We've still got a few .
·little glitches here and there, but I
think from the standpoint of Ray get-

ring started and what he's had his
hands full with, he's had a mound of
work co do."
Elliot felt that way when he owned
his own team, and it showed in his
performance. He never won in his
own car - almost unthiukable for
someone with 40 career victories.
So, after his sponsor pulled out and
Evernham came calling, Elliott decided it was time to really go racing
again. And, by keeping several key
people from his own team, he is helping Evernham -Jeff Gordon's longtime crew chief- acclimate himself
to the owner's role.
"I think once Ray gets the business

side more squared away, it'D make it
easier on him to concentrate more on
getting with the cars and making
them run faster;• Elliott said.
He's glad ownership is Evernham's
problem.
"These things are so expensive to
run," Elliott said. "It's not doing anything but getting harder and harder
day in and day out. Any time
NASCAR implements a ruJe change,
however small it is, it costs you tons of
money to deal with."
For a brief period in the 1990s, it .

Sim son leads

BY ANDREW CARTER
OVP SPORTS EDITOR

ATHENS - Eastern senior Matt Simpso.n gave his club a much needed lift
Wednesday, scoring 25 points to lead the
Eagles to a 55-4 7 victory over Portsmouth
East in the Division IV district semifinals.
Simpson, who scored 12 points in the first
half to keep the Eagles chances of advancing
in the playoffi alive, added 11 points in a
pivotal third quarter as Eastern overcame a
9-point deficit and chen outscored the Tartans 19-9 in the fourth to earn the win.
"We had a little trouble there in the first
half, just getting into a rhythm, I think,"
Simpson said. "After we got ready to play,
we played a little better defense, especially in
the fourth quarter. We struggled on the
offensive en~. but the defense picked us up."
The . Eagles (19-3) will now face

Portsmouth Clay in the district championship Saturday at 9 p.m. at the Convo. Clay
defeated Green 61-56 in overtime last night
to earn its slot opposite Eastern.
"I don't know if it was the lay-off, but we
just didn't ·play very well, especially for two
and a half quarters," said Eastern head coach
Howie. Caldwell. "I'll be honest with you,
we didn't play well, I didn't coach well;
we're just vety fortunate to win this one
tonight."
Eastern opened th·e game looking like a
team that hadn't played a game in 10 days.

might be an understatement....at least
on the playing field. They are the sole
members of the basketball team that
also played football for the Eagles chis

"It's ·been great, especially the last part

who's starting guard for Eastern. "We've
really stepped it up."
Back in November, the quartet was

community, it was something to rally
behind, especially since the tournament
game was played at Eastern High

"We really turned it amund," said
Karr. "As freshmen, we went 1-9 in
football arid basketball was .500. The
last two years, we've really played well
and improved."
Karr was the starting quarterback for
the Eagles.
"&amp; the (football) season went on, we
started to believe we were a lot better
than we first thought we were. We
played all summer in basketball. We
really did well with summer basketball."

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
- It's March. It's 6 a.m. It's
football . practice at Ohio
State?
·
For the past three weeks on
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, Ohio State football players have been required to be
on the indoor practice field at
the Woody Hayes Athletic
Center, ready to run, by 6
a.m. No excuses.
The players have had such
off-season workouts ·in the
past. But these are taking
place in front of a fre~h set of
eyes, n!&gt;tably those of new
coach Jim Tressel and his staff.
The first impressions?
"The camaraderie is real
strong," nose guard Mike
Collins said. "I like what
coach Tressel has done. It
makes · yo\) excited for this
coming · season, because I
think . things are going to
change, just based on what
I've seen so far."
What he has seen so far is
coaches occasionally , mixing
in with .the players to run
some of the conditioning
drills. And he has seen players
being pushed harder than
before, the mornings always
capped . by a session under
Tressel's direction.
"He's making it fun,"
Collins said. "Even though
you might have six, eight, 10
guys puking right beside you,

it's fun."
That also brings a sense of
purpose, said linebacker Matt ·
Wilhelm.
"We feel that we're climbing a hill out there with these
6 a.m. workouts, and we're
still together, rallying wgeth-

er," he said.
The idea is to push the
players to near exhaustion,
and if they don't reach that
point, "you're not going very
hard,"Tressel said.
Becoming berter, in Tressel's
view, means paying attention
to detail.
"We talk a lot about efficiency: the efficiency of
movement, the discipline of
doing· something exactly
right, doing it perfecdy;• he
said. "If we can get to the
habit of doing everything
perfectly - that's impossible,
I know, but that's what you
should always shoot for then we'll progress."
Tressel's approach includes
much more than wind sprints
and shuttle drills.
"We also. do things that
bring us closer together as a
team," defensive back Richard
McNutt said.
Those things include a piggyback relay race, in which
one player has to carry another 100 yards, and a human
wheelbarrow race, just like

Lyons was a big play receiver for Eastern, while Buckley
also shared time as a receiver
an&lt;;! Werry showed his versatility by playing at several different positio111 as the season
went along.
Now, 1hey are a part of the
Eagles current ntn op the
hardcourt.
"We've j~o~st had a pretty
good seuon," said Lyoru, who
is a key player off the bench
for Eastern at forward;"We'vc
worked hard in the weight
room in the otT-season .to get

things together. The coaches
put everything together and
are good at scouting. They
just do a great job."
On Wednesday, Lyons hod
eight points and made a 3point goal fron) well past the
NBA 3-point line at the
buzzer to end the first . quarter. The shot tied the game at
12-all,
"I just came out, just got
the ball and shot it,~' said
Lyons. "I was real lucky it
went in."
While Lyons and Karr only
s~ored 1 1 points combined,
they. came through during an
11-2 Ea1tern run that ended
the g;~me. Karr was 3-for-4 at
the free throw line in the last

3:05 of the contest, while
Lyons had a key basket with
2:08 remaining that broke a
45-all tie and put the Eagles
up for good.
, "We had a 10 day rest off
there," said Lyons. "We came
out a little sluggish, We knew
what we had to do and just
got things done."
As underclassmen, Karr and
the quartet have more to look
forward to in the future.
"We're going to be pretty
tough again h1 fnotball aslona
as we keep in the weight
room," S3id Karr. "In basketball, we're aolng to have to
changt our o!Teme a little bit.
We have four seniors that
!tart, three real big guys. We

should be all right, we have a
lot of people coming back
still.
,
"With the experience that
we're gettin.g this year, I feel
that we'll get pretty fa~ next
year," added Lyons. "Eve'ry little bit of experience helps
ou~."

Meanwhile, the focus is pn
the mission at hand as the
Eagles continue their run for

On Wednesday, Lyons hod
eight points and made a 3point goal fron) well past the
NBA 3-point line at the

12-all,
"I just came out, just got
the ball and shot it,~' said
Lyons. "I was real lucky it
went in."
While Lyons and Karr only
s~ored 1 1 points combined,
they. came through during an
11-2 Ea1tern run that ended
the g;~me. Karr was 3-for-4 at
the free throw line in the last

3:05 of the contest, while
Lyons had a key basket with
2:08 remaining that broke a
45-all tie and put the Eagles
up for good.
, "We had a 10 day rest off
there," said Lyons. "We came
out a little sluggish, We knew
what we had to do and just

driver to own his own
team. Darrell Waltrip, Ricky
Rudd, Joe Nemechek and
Brett Bodine were among
those who joined Elliott as
owner-drivers. Only Bodine
remains in that role.
"I don't think everybody's
cut out to run their own business," said Bodine, who operates his with the help of his
wife, Diane. "It's not for
everybody, but that's ·OK It's
that way in ariy business.
"Some days I do envy those
· guys who just drive, because
- this is an awful lot of hard
work, but this is my family's
business."
Ed Clark, the Atlanta track's
president, has seen a subtle
change in Elliott the past few
years, mainly due to the driver's family - wife Cindy
and 5-year-old son Chase.
Now, devoid of the problems of running a business,
Elliott is finding more . time
for something other than raemg.

one might see at a Fourth
ofJuly picnic.
What does that have to do
with getting down and. dir,ty
against Michigan? Not much.
And then again, everything.
"In those situations the
competitiveness comes out in

guys, and you were rallying
with guys from the offensive
side, guys who you otherwise
really d.o n't see that much of
in practice," Wilhelm said. "It
builds camaraderie and team
spirit."

in tli.e midst of it all has
stood Tressel, an image that
lingers in Collins' mind. The
players were as curious as
everyone about the man
Ohio State plucked from
Youngstown State, where he
won four NCAA Division 1AA national titles in 15 seasons before taking over for
the fired John Cooper.
"Once you get perJonal
with him you find out he's a
good dude," Collins said.

ties for the fifth brst turnaround m ~CAA history.

"I just heard from a friend
of Bill's that he's fly fishing
now/' Clark said. "I can't
believe Bill Elliott is fly fishtog."
But what Elliott would like
to bag most of all is another
Atlanta victory. Although he
. leads all active drivers with
four poles and five wins on
the track, he hasn't been to
Victory Lane since 1992.
He attributes part of that to
the reshaping of the track in
1997.
"I liked the old Atlanta
because it had a personality to
it;' Elliott said. "I just haven't
figured out the new configuration. I'm sure if I'd win a
race here, I'd change my tune
a little bit."
Win or lose, Clark said a
large portion of Sunday's
crowd will be rooting for
Elliott.
"When Bill won ihe pole
this year at Daytona, our
phone lines rang off tile hook
with the calls from north
Georgia looking for tickets,"
Clark said. "Mainly, they all
just want to see Bill run up
front and do well, no matter
what he's driving."

driver to own his own
team. Darrell Waltrip, Ricky
Rudd, Joe Nemechek and
Brett Bodine were among
those who joined Elliott as
owner-drivers. Only Bodine
remains in that role.
"I don't think everybody's
cut out to run their own business," said Bodine, who operates his with the help of his
wife, Diane. "It's not for
everybody, but that's ·OK It's
that way in ariy business.
"Some days I do envy those
· guys who just drive, because
- this is an awful lot of hard
work, but this is my family's
business."
Ed Clark, the Atlanta track's
president, has seen a subtle
change in Elliott the past few
years, mainly due to the driver's family - wife Cindy
and 5-year-old son Chase.
Now, devoid of the problems of running a business,
Elliott is finding more . time
for something other than raemg.

one might see at a Fourth
ofJuly picnic.
What does that have to do
with getting down and. dir,ty
against Michigan? Not much.
And then again, everything.
"In those situations the
competitiveness comes out in

guys, and you were rallying
with guys from the offensive
side, guys who you otherwise
really d.o n't see that much of
in practice," Wilhelm said. "It
builds camaraderie and team
spirit."

in tli.e midst of it all has
stood Tressel, an image that
lingers in Collins' mind. The
players were as curious as
everyone about the man
Ohio State plucked from
Youngstown State, where he
won four NCAA Division 1AA national titles in 15 seasons before taking over for
the fired John Cooper.
"Once you get perJonal
with him you find out he's a
good dude," Collins said.

"I just heard from a friend
of Bill's that he's fly fishing
now/' Clark said. "I can't
believe Bill Elliott is fly fishtog."
But what Elliott would like
to bag most of all is another
Atlanta victory. Although he
. leads all active drivers with
four poles and five wins on
the track, he hasn't been to
Victory Lane since 1992.
He attributes part of that to
the reshaping of the track in
1997.
"I liked the old Atlanta
because it had a personality to
it;' Elliott said. "I just haven't
figured out the new configuration. I'm sure if I'd win a
race here, I'd change my tune
a little bit."
Win or lose, Clark said a
large portion of Sunday's
crowd will be rooting for
Elliott.
"When Bill won ihe pole
this year at Daytona, our
phone lines rang off tile hook
with the calls from north
Georgia looking for tickets,"
Clark said. "Mainly, they all
just want to see Bill run up
front and do well, no matter
what he's driving."

·Nova still alive, UConn falls off bubble

l'

NEW YORK (AP) -With
the NCAA tournament on
their minds, Big East coaches
tiptoed into their conference
tournament, hoping to help
their chances, or at least not
hurt them when the selection
committee meets on Sunday.
Villanova did. Connecticut
did not.
Both started the day on the
NCAA bubble, and both are
probably still there. Villanova's
grasp seems a bit more secure
after the Wildcats defeated
WestVirginia 82-71.
. Connecticut's is a not qutte
as comfortable after No. 17
Syracuse downed the Huskies
86-75.
·
Villanova coach Steve Lappas was playing it coy, hoping
18 wins would be good
enough for the committee.
Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun, with 19 wins, was in full
lobbying form.
So did beating West Virginia
secure a spot for Villanova?
"What do I know?" .Lappas
said with a shrug. "I feel better
than I did two hours ago, I
know . that. After that, I can't
tell you."
And did losing to Syracuse
cause UConn to lose ground?
"I think our league should
get seven (teams invited) out
of 14," he said. "We won six of

our last nine. We beat Boston
College, Providence and
Notre Dame. If you're looking
for quality wins, we have
them. One loss is not going to
mar what we've done."
In Wednesday's other Big
East first-round games, Pittsburgh eliminated Miami 7869 and Seton Hall defeated St.
John's 78-66. In Thursday's
quarterfinals, Seton Hall plays
Georgetown, Villanova plays
Boston College, Pittsburgh
meets Notre Dame, and Syracuse goes against Providence.
No. 17 Syracuse 86, .
Connecticut 75 ·
Preston Shumpert, who
buried UConn with 34 points
and eight 3-pointers in t.heir
first meeting, had 31 points
and four more 3s in the
rematch. Damone Brown had
18 points, and Allen Griffin
and DeShaun Williams added
14 apiece for Syracuse (23-7) .
· Coach Jim Boeheim was
delighted with his team's
effott, p~rticularly in the first
half..
·
"That's probably the best
we've played all year," he said.
"It was one of those halves
when every play we called
worked. Everything we did
worked offensively."
Pittsburgh 78, Miami 69
Pitt saw a 16-point lead

shaved to j11st two, then reconstructed its margin to defeat
Miami.
Ricardo Greer matched his
season's high with 27 points
and grabbed II rebounds for
the Panthers, who ended a
four-game Big East tournament losing streak. The Panthers (16-12) held a 40-27
rebounding edge over Miami
(16-12) and held the Jiurricanes' top two scorers, John
Salmons and Darius Rice who
were in foul trouble, to a combined five points.
"It worked to our advantage," Pitt coach Ben Howland
said. "They were. very aggressive. They're a very good
defensive team and we were

fortunate to have some of
their key guys get in foul trouble."
Seton Hall 78,
· St. John's 66
Seton Hall (15-13) took
advantage of some awful
shooting by St. John's and
eliminated the defending Big
East champion Red S'torm
(14-15) from postseason consideration.
St.John's shot just 31.5 percent, missing 50 of 73 shots
from the floor.
Ty Shine's 22 points led five
Pirates in double figures.
Anthony Glover led St. Joh11's

Melp County"s

with 24 points and 13
rebounds.
St. John's coach Mike Jarvis
was philosophical over the disappointing season.
"This was not a losing season," he said. "It was a learning
season. All losses are a temporary setback. If you learn from
them, it's all worth it."
Villanova 82,
WestVirginia 71
Villanova (18-11), troubled
by turnovers all season, had
just 12 giveaways and led all '·
the way against the Mountaineers, who lost their fourth
straight first-round game in
the Big East tournament.
Michael Bradley led Villanova with 19 points, missing just
two of 10 shots. Derrick

Tax plan

WASHINGTON - President Bush's income tax ·cut
plan, after hurtling through the
House, is about to come to a
screeching halt in the Senate,
where Democrats and Republicans say it will take time and
compromise to produce a final
agreement.
"The size and scope and fate
of this bill will be determined
in the Senate;' said Sen. Max
Baucus of Montana, seliior
Democrat ~~'W'.!e...ra:X~~iting
Senate Finance e'ommrttee. ·
The panel's chairman, Sen.
Charles Grassley. R-Iowa, said
it will be May before the committee starts working in earnest
on its version of Bush's 10year, $1.6 trillion tax cut package. By that time, the House
likely will have passed several
other items in Bush's plan to
add to the $958 billion income
tax cut that Republican leaden
pushed through the chamber
Thursday.
"My goal is to get as much as
we can for the president,"
Grassley said. "The most sacred
goal we have ·co accomplish is
as big a marginal rate cut as
possible."
Even as he basked in the
230-198 House vote in favor
of the income taX cut, Bush
recognized there was much
work ahead. There are 50
Democrats and 50 Republicans · in the Senate, giving
Democrats much greater clout
in determining the outcome.
"One House down, and now
the Senate to go;' Bush told an
audience Thursday .in Fargo,
N.D., a state represented by
two Democratic senators· who
oppose his plan.
Republicans were exultant at
the quick House victory,
which came only 48 days into
Bush's term, and promised in
the coming weeks to send the
Senate other pans of the president's taX plan. Candidates for
the next measure in the
pipeline include those addressing the ·:marriage penalty" paid
by millions of two-m(!&gt;me
couples, ·doubling the $500
child taX credit, repealing the
estate taX and expanding breaks
for charity contributiom.
"Our message to the American people is: Help is o~ the
way;• said House MaJOrity
Leader Dick Armey, R-Texas.
"We're going to do a lot
more."
The income taX legislation
would gradually reduce and
condense the current five graduated income taX rates of 15
percent, 28 percent, 31 percent,
36 percent and 39.6 percent.
By 2006, rates would be
pegged at 10 peicent, 15 percent, 25 percent and 33 percent.

Bank to 'waive child support check fee
BY LIZ SIDOn
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

COLUMBUS - Bank 'One will
waive the $3 check-cashing fee for noncustomers who cash child support
; .Job and
checks, the Ohio Departme;tt
Family Services said Thurs
.
· "We want to see that family d children are getting ttl~ money they are
entided to," Gov. Bob Taft said in a written statement thai credited the deJprtment's new management with hegotiating an agreement with Bank One.
The announcement came just five
days after Taft appointed former House
Speaker Jo Ann Davidson to lea~ the
department and Jim Conrad, admirustrator of the Ohio Bureau of Workers'
Compensation, to head an ODJFS management reyiew team. Jacqueline
Romer-Sensky resigned as the department's director March 2 following

weeks of controversy over the state's
child support system.
·
Bank One has never waived the fee,
but "we were asked direcdy by the new
management team ... and we said yes,"
said Jeff Lyttle, the company's
spokesman.
.
Bank One has a five-year, $125 million conuact with the department to
process and distribute the state's child
support payments. The fee waiver will be
in effect Monday through June 30, when
the contract must be renegotiated. .
Negotiations occur at the end of each
budget yeat:, and Jon Allen, the department's spokesman, said, ' 4 I'm sure this
issue will be discussed then."
Under the c~ntract, counry child support offices send payments to the state,
which then deposits the money ·in the
Bank One account for distribution.

much it will lose because of the waiver
because no one has tracked how many
non-customers cash their child support
checks at one of the bank's branches,
Lyttle said.
.
.
About 850,000 Ohioans recetve chtld
support checks. While many of those
peopl~ have the checks deposited directly into their bank accounts, Bank One
prints about 800,000 checks a month, he
said.
Sen. Marie Mallory, who has criticized
the state for not including the waiver
Bank One's contract, said the bank
shouldn't be ~ng money on checks
that are drawn on a state account.
"The state either knew or sh~uld have
known that these fees were going to be
charged," said Mallory, a Democrat from
Cincinnati. "I hope that in future .contract negotiations, the state will be aware
offees and negotiate them out."
