'· Ohio is phasing out its controversial proficiency tests and replacing them with achievement examinations to gauge stu- , · dents' academic performance. Nc:M that proficiency testing is going south is no doubt welcome to teachers, administrators and parents who believe the drive for results :m: draconian, and that failure to pass the 12th grade test prohibits graduation. That's the point behind a citizen lawsuit filed in Columb)IS last week. We won't argue that proficiency testing, as Franklin County parent Charles Johnson said. "has turned the whole household upside down." Since the tests' introduction on the fourth, sixth and 12th grade level, educators. and patents in southern Ohio have worked that much harder to bring scores up. A common complaint is that in the push to improve passage rates, classroom instruction is almost totally devoted to subjects covered by the test. Locally, schools have instituted intervention programs during summer to ensure kids get a good shot at passing. · While recognizing the additional efFort proficiency tests have brought, Gallipolis City Board of Education President Lynn Angell-Queen wondered last week if dropping the tests is all that great an idea, considering the level of improvement seen by her disttict and others in the area. It is food for thought. Gov. Bob Tati, when lisninf the Student Success bill on June 12 outlining the changes in testing, said Ohio will have "for the first time in its history. an aligned system of clear and rigorous academic standards, assessments to measure a student's progress based on these standards, and an accountability process that deals with persistently failing schools." All well and good. But the achievement tests called for in the bill may not be ready until 2003. Meanwhile, proficiency stays in effect as the measurement tool. Establishment of these new standards .are in the state's hands; and we plead here .and now that the Departtnent of Education take into account that one . size does not fit all when it comes to testing. Southern Ohio has sttuggled with raising the bar in educational excellence, but has made strides toward that goal. If proficiency testing has been a catalyst to such improvement, we can take some comfort that better-educated students have been the result: No one is calling for a "dumbing down" of testing standards because this region contends with funding and sociological problems.As State Sen. Michael Shoemaker, D-Bourneville, has pointed out, Columbus fails to take those factors into consid• eration when formQlating policy. What works for for Cleveland schools doesn't mean it'll play in Gallia .and Meigs counties. If achievement testing makes the educational process less factory work-like for students and teachen, ~ore power to them. At the same time, the region has worked diligently to turn things around. The state should not bow to pressure that tests are "too hard." Less demanding testing means not only the state, but all of us, are abandoning a committnet;lt to making local schools the best. TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Sunday, June 24, the 175th day of2001. There are 190 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On June 24, 1908, the 22nd and 24th president of the .United States, Grover Cleveland, died in Princeton, N.J., at age 71. On this date: In 1314, the forces of Scotland's King Robert I defeated · the English in the Battle of Bannockburn. In 1497, the first recorded sighting of North America by a European took place as explorer John Cabot spotted land, probably i·n present-day Canada. In 1509, Henry VIII was crowned king of England. In 164 7, Margaret Brent, a niece of Lord Baltimore, was ejected from the Maryland Assembly after tlemanding a place and vote in that governing body. In 1793, the first republican constitution in France was adopted. In 19.40, France signed an armistice with Italy during World War II. . In 1948; Com'niunist forces cut ofF all land and water routes between West Germany and West Berlin, prompting the western allies to organize the massive Berlin Airlift. · In 1968, "Resurrection City,'' a shantytown constructed as part of the Poor People's March on Washington, D.C., was closed down by authorities. In 1975, 113 people were killed when an Eastern Airlines Boeing 727 crashed while attempting to land during a thunderstorm at New York's John F. Kennedy 'International Airport. In 1987, comedian-actor Jackie Gleason died at his home in Fort Lauoerdale, Pia., a.t age ?1. I ' _, T- Roin AMriol CHARLESTON The state Supreme Court has upheld - for the second time in seven months - a circuit court's reduction from $2.8 million to SI million of a malpr.tctice award against a Wheeling doctor. The 3-2 vote by the court upholds the constitutionality ofWestVirginia's $1 mil-· lion medical malpractice cap on noneconomic damages. The opinion was released by the court on Friday. ChiefJustice Warren McGraw and Justice Larry Starcher dissented. McGraw and Starcher had also dissented on Dec. I 2 when the court previously voted to uphold the reduced award. But justices later agreed to rehear the case. The medical community had been concerned that the .decision might change, because former Justice George Scott, an appointee of Republican former Gov. Cecil Underwood, has left the bench. He was replaced by Justice Joe Albright, a Democrat who was elected in November and began serving in January But Albright, like Scott, voted to r~tain the malpr;;tctice cap, which was set 15 years ago by the state Legislature.

Is the aim of education in elementary school today to make "slick willies" out of the students in this so-called computer age? Money is rolling in to build computer labs and to promote technology. Where does the b8ic education and the personal development ofimmature people come in? It seems that most schools do not welcome a visitor in, especially if he is not well known. Sometimes it is a ple8ure to have the experience of observing how the educational process clicks in this fast-paced world. Maybe it is too dangerous for a plebeian from the outside world to grace the halls of enlightenment in these screwed-up times: The public should be better integrated with what's going on in schools. They will get more support. an Gayle Price Pordand Indulging whims Dear Editor: Indulging whims seem to be an integral part of many politicians and bureaucrats. Gallia County is no exception.

In our opinion, the following three instances are examples of unnece!Sary ·spending. We believe these three instances illustrate a pattern of spending which is extravagant and delinquent: 1. Remodeling of Ohio Department of Transportation building on Jackson Pike surely tops the list of taxpayer funded projects, which may b'e worthy of a Golden Fleece Award. This remodeling project was initiated by the Galli a County Health Department. The accepted contractor's bid for remodeling the ODOT facility was $998,353. However, the final total cost for this project, after a of change , orders, was number $2,111,249.41. ' This including $1,8!7,992 paid to the contractor, ·$190,991.86 paid to the architect, $99,646.21 ' for the phone system and $37,785.86 for miscellaneous costs. $991,249.41 of the total · cost of $2,11 1,249.4.1 was paid frOm Gallia County general fund. The remaining SI ,200,\)00 was borrowed. 2. A penalty of $3,104.87 was levied against Gallia County due to failure of Larry Betz, county auditor, to pay on time the county's payment to the Public Employee Retirement System. 3. Kare(l Sprague, county administrator, was given a $2 per hour salary increase in November 2000. She was also given a 50" cent per hour salary increase on Jan, I , 2001.

Northup Gallipolis Act now Dear Editor: Last Thursday, June 14, W8 a scheduled meeting with Gallia County commissioners and the Gallia County Budget Commission. This meeting had been scheduled the preceding week, with all commissioners and budget commission members present. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss current budget issues and the status of the county's general fund. All officeholders and department heads that were funded through the general fund were supposed to be invited to attend. Absent from the meeting were Commissioner Shirley Angel, who left at noo.n for vacation, and Budget Commission member Brent Saunder<, county prosecutor. Gallia County Treasurer Steve McGhee and County Auditor Larry Betz were present from the Budget Commission. McGhee presented a fact .sheet showing that although die county sales tax marked for the county general fund was down for this year, the real estate tax was increased. The real estate tax have increased considerably since 1996. The major problem with the budget seems to stem around increased spending from the county general fund. McGhee pointed out that spending may have increased as much as 50 percent from 1995. These expenditures are due, in part, to the support given to various non-mandated services by the commission and a significant expense on the Gallia County Service Center that houses the Gallia County Health Departtnenr and is often refereed to has the Health Department Building. This building, according ro some record., ~y have been completed at a cost of around $1 million over original estimates. This is due in part to a large number of change orders piaced in after the contract was signed. Methods were discussed to start- immediate money-saving tactics that could be beneficial for the long term. These problems should have been addressed several years ago by county commissioners, elected officials and others. The large surplus carryover that th e county enjoyed and was given away of yea'rs past has now caught up. Immediate action must be taken to avoid the county from finishing the year in the red. It is time for all elected officials and deparnnent heads to start running there departments and offices like a busin ess, or handling finances like their personal business and not like a bottomless pit for money to spend in the hopes of gaming political clout. . The organization, all of which are good and beneficial to the community, must sta rt to seek alternative ·sources of funding. Weather it be through grants or user fees, we cannot expect the county to bankroll everything. In the good times, help is what it .is all about, but it is also important that the same group< that were helped before now step up and help otlt th e county by seeking alternative funding sources. This is the opinion of the author and are my opinion only. Johnnie Russell Bidwell . Needs truck Dear Editor: At around 5:30 on June 19, I encountered two large, exhausted dogs (mixed breed) lying in the middle ofVance Road, just down from Holley Road, in SnowviUe. ·A concerned neighbor and I managed to collar and leash both dogs, who had clearly been abandoned as it was difficult to get them to move from the spot where they had been dumped. We took them to · a secure place and awaited Bill Dye, the dog · warden, who was on the scene within 15 minutes. Mr. Dye put the dogs in the inadequate and far-too-small "dog boxes" he had secured in the back of a flatbed pickup. One of the "boxes" was simply a large dog carrier, which would be a tight fit for the average large dog, and was. He then took them to the pound, where they probably will not be adopted and, although gentle and responsive, will be euthanized next week. So, once again, people not responsible took on the responsibility of keeping two creatures out of harm's \vay - inevitable death by collision or a slow death of starvation.l\vo weeks before, I had picked up a beagle, starving and full of intestinal parasites, who has gained eigh.t pounds and is on the mend, having just been neutered. J\,nd, on the way to work this morning, thereras a dazed German shepherd, which I eould not coax into the truck. So it continues. In our comlnunity, too often, when a dog is unwanted in a household, the owners choose to dump the dog: You know who ' you are, or perhaps your children recognize the situation. Perhap< in time you will understand the cruelty of this act; perhaps, ironically, you will even meet a similar fate. But it will come back to you - that I know. Apparently the commissioner< expect the dog warden to perform lhe task of picking up strays with an old truck, with pathetic boxes instead of i proper cap .on it, "' he drives the back roads in an aging vehicle with tires that, in the last two weeks alone, have had two flats. Although Mr. Dye has been repeatedly told that he will get a new rruck, the commissioners, seemingly unconcerned that the Ohio Revised Code requires them to provide the county dog ~rden with whatever he needs to do his job, do not. consider this a priority. So, thanks to their inability to follow up on the question of a vehicle (~his has been going on for months!) he must make several runs to pick up mid-sized dogs in a group- thus requiring more gas and wear and tear to the vehicle, his productivity is diminished, and he is not available to answer as many calls. Does this make sense? The dog warden has years of invaluable experience and maintains his compassionare attitude toward his charges, yet is asked to perform an already difficult job with a broken-down truck. The Meigs County Humane Society, of 'vhich I am a member, has suggested that \ve help pay for a new or used truck, properly outfitted. The fact that we are willing to help the county, when we are hardpressed ourselves, despite the fact that this is the county's responsibility, speaks to our commitment to· the dog warden. Odd that the county cannot do the same. How about a little less talk and some action, commissioners?

West Virginia law prevents school systems from providing that transportation, according to a June 14 memo from Work Center Director Zane Kesecker. The service had been provided at no cost to the cen. ter or clients' families, Kesecker said. "We are still attempting to find alternative transportation means to assist our clients but it appears that getting your son or daughter to work will be come your responsibility," Kesecker said in the memo to affected families.

OUR VIEW ....... 02001AecuWealhor,lne. __ <> -.-~ &ft\1' PL Cloudy Cloudy .,. Farewell Profidency testing is going, but will new exams be better? '· Ohio is phasing out its controversial proficiency tests and replacing them with achievement examinations to gauge stu- , · dents' academic performance. Nc:M that proficiency testing is going south is no doubt welcome to teachers, administrators and parents who believe the drive for results :m: draconian, and that failure to pass the 12th grade test prohibits graduation. That's the point behind a citizen lawsuit filed in Columb)IS last week. We won't argue that proficiency testing, as Franklin County parent Charles Johnson said. "has turned the whole household upside down." Since the tests' introduction on the fourth, sixth and 12th grade level, educators. and patents in southern Ohio have worked that much harder to bring scores up. A common complaint is that in the push to improve passage rates, classroom instruction is almost totally devoted to subjects covered by the test. Locally, schools have instituted intervention programs during summer to ensure kids get a good shot at passing. · While recognizing the additional efFort proficiency tests have brought, Gallipolis City Board of Education President Lynn Angell-Queen wondered last week if dropping the tests is all that great an idea, considering the level of improvement seen by her disttict and others in the area. It is food for thought. Gov. Bob Tati, when lisninf the Student Success bill on June 12 outlining the changes in testing, said Ohio will have "for the first time in its history. an aligned system of clear and rigorous academic standards, assessments to measure a student's progress based on these standards, and an accountability process that deals with persistently failing schools." All well and good. But the achievement tests called for in the bill may not be ready until 2003. Meanwhile, proficiency stays in effect as the measurement tool. Establishment of these new standards .are in the state's hands; and we plead here .and now that the Departtnent of Education take into account that one . size does not fit all when it comes to testing. Southern Ohio has sttuggled with raising the bar in educational excellence, but has made strides toward that goal. If proficiency testing has been a catalyst to such improvement, we can take some comfort that better-educated students have been the result: No one is calling for a "dumbing down" of testing standards because this region contends with funding and sociological problems.As State Sen. Michael Shoemaker, D-Bourneville, has pointed out, Columbus fails to take those factors into consid• eration when formQlating policy. What works for for Cleveland schools doesn't mean it'll play in Gallia .and Meigs counties. If achievement testing makes the educational process less factory work-like for students and teachen, ~ore power to them. At the same time, the region has worked diligently to turn things around. The state should not bow to pressure that tests are "too hard." Less demanding testing means not only the state, but all of us, are abandoning a committnet;lt to making local schools the best. TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Sunday, June 24, the 175th day of2001. There are 190 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On June 24, 1908, the 22nd and 24th president of the .United States, Grover Cleveland, died in Princeton, N.J., at age 71. On this date: In 1314, the forces of Scotland's King Robert I defeated · the English in the Battle of Bannockburn. In 1497, the first recorded sighting of North America by a European took place as explorer John Cabot spotted land, probably i·n present-day Canada. In 1509, Henry VIII was crowned king of England. In 164 7, Margaret Brent, a niece of Lord Baltimore, was ejected from the Maryland Assembly after tlemanding a place and vote in that governing body. In 1793, the first republican constitution in France was adopted. In 19.40, France signed an armistice with Italy during World War II. . In 1948; Com'niunist forces cut ofF all land and water routes between West Germany and West Berlin, prompting the western allies to organize the massive Berlin Airlift. · In 1968, "Resurrection City,'' a shantytown constructed as part of the Poor People's March on Washington, D.C., was closed down by authorities. In 1975, 113 people were killed when an Eastern Airlines Boeing 727 crashed while attempting to land during a thunderstorm at New York's John F. Kennedy 'International Airport. In 1987, comedian-actor Jackie Gleason died at his home in Fort Lauoerdale, Pia., a.t age ?1. I ' _, T- Roin AMriol CHARLESTON The state Supreme Court has upheld - for the second time in seven months - a circuit court's reduction from $2.8 million to SI million of a malpr.tctice award against a Wheeling doctor. The 3-2 vote by the court upholds the constitutionality ofWestVirginia's $1 mil-· lion medical malpractice cap on noneconomic damages. The opinion was released by the court on Friday. ChiefJustice Warren McGraw and Justice Larry Starcher dissented. McGraw and Starcher had also dissented on Dec. I 2 when the court previously voted to uphold the reduced award. But justices later agreed to rehear the case. The medical community had been concerned that the .decision might change, because former Justice George Scott, an appointee of Republican former Gov. Cecil Underwood, has left the bench. He was replaced by Justice Joe Albright, a Democrat who was elected in November and began serving in January But Albright, like Scott, voted to r~tain the malpr;;tctice cap, which was set 15 years ago by the state Legislature.

Is the aim of education in elementary school today to make "slick willies" out of the students in this so-called computer age? Money is rolling in to build computer labs and to promote technology. Where does the b8ic education and the personal development ofimmature people come in? It seems that most schools do not welcome a visitor in, especially if he is not well known. Sometimes it is a ple8ure to have the experience of observing how the educational process clicks in this fast-paced world. Maybe it is too dangerous for a plebeian from the outside world to grace the halls of enlightenment in these screwed-up times: The public should be better integrated with what's going on in schools. They will get more support. an Gayle Price Pordand Indulging whims Dear Editor: Indulging whims seem to be an integral part of many politicians and bureaucrats. Gallia County is no exception. It sure . appears Gallia County is on a break-the-bank course. If the various county department offices .contin11:e to spend at their present rate, the county will end the year more th:in $500,000 in the red. In our opinion, the following three instances are examples of unnece!Sary ·spending. We believe these three instances illustrate a pattern of spending which is extravagant and delinquent: 1. Remodeling of Ohio Department of Transportation building on Jackson Pike surely tops the list of taxpayer funded projects, which may b'e worthy of a Golden Fleece Award. This remodeling project was initiated by the Galli a County Health Department. The accepted contractor's bid for remodeling the ODOT facility was $998,353. However, the final total cost for this project, after a of change , orders, was number $2,111,249.41. ' This including $1,8!7,992 paid to the contractor, ·$190,991.86 paid to the architect, $99,646.21 ' for the phone system and $37,785.86 for miscellaneous costs. $991,249.41 of the total · cost of $2,11 1,249.4.1 was paid frOm Gallia County general fund. The remaining SI ,200,\)00 was borrowed. 2. A penalty of $3,104.87 was levied against Gallia County due to failure of Larry Betz, county auditor, to pay on time the county's payment to the Public Employee Retirement System. 3. Kare(l Sprague, county administrator, was given a $2 per hour salary increase in November 2000. She was also given a 50" cent per hour salary increase on Jan, I , 2001.

Northup Gallipolis Act now Dear Editor: Last Thursday, June 14, W8 a scheduled meeting with Gallia County commissioners and the Gallia County Budget Commission. This meeting had been scheduled the preceding week, with all commissioners and budget commission members present. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss current budget issues and the status of the county's general fund. All officeholders and department heads that were funded through the general fund were supposed to be invited to attend. Absent from the meeting were Commissioner Shirley Angel, who left at noo.n for vacation, and Budget Commission member Brent Saunder<, county prosecutor. Gallia County Treasurer Steve McGhee and County Auditor Larry Betz were present from the Budget Commission. McGhee presented a fact .sheet showing that although die county sales tax marked for the county general fund was down for this year, the real estate tax was increased. The real estate tax have increased considerably since 1996. The major problem with the budget seems to stem around increased spending from the county general fund. McGhee pointed out that spending may have increased as much as 50 percent from 1995. These expenditures are due, in part, to the support given to various non-mandated services by the commission and a significant expense on the Gallia County Service Center that houses the Gallia County Health Departtnenr and is often refereed to has the Health Department Building. This building, according ro some record., ~y have been completed at a cost of around $1 million over original estimates. This is due in part to a large number of change orders piaced in after the contract was signed. Methods were discussed to start- immediate money-saving tactics that could be beneficial for the long term. These problems should have been addressed several years ago by county commissioners, elected officials and others. The large surplus carryover that th e county enjoyed and was given away of yea'rs past has now caught up. Immediate action must be taken to avoid the county from finishing the year in the red. It is time for all elected officials and deparnnent heads to start running there departments and offices like a busin ess, or handling finances like their personal business and not like a bottomless pit for money to spend in the hopes of gaming political clout. . The organization, all of which are good and beneficial to the community, must sta rt to seek alternative ·sources of funding. Weather it be through grants or user fees, we cannot expect the county to bankroll everything. In the good times, help is what it .is all about, but it is also important that the same group< that were helped before now step up and help otlt th e county by seeking alternative funding sources. This is the opinion of the author and are my opinion only. Johnnie Russell Bidwell . Needs truck Dear Editor: At around 5:30 on June 19, I encountered two large, exhausted dogs (mixed breed) lying in the middle ofVance Road, just down from Holley Road, in SnowviUe. ·A concerned neighbor and I managed to collar and leash both dogs, who had clearly been abandoned as it was difficult to get them to move from the spot where they had been dumped. We took them to · a secure place and awaited Bill Dye, the dog · warden, who was on the scene within 15 minutes. Mr. Dye put the dogs in the inadequate and far-too-small "dog boxes" he had secured in the back of a flatbed pickup. One of the "boxes" was simply a large dog carrier, which would be a tight fit for the average large dog, and was. He then took them to the pound, where they probably will not be adopted and, although gentle and responsive, will be euthanized next week. So, once again, people not responsible took on the responsibility of keeping two creatures out of harm's \vay - inevitable death by collision or a slow death of starvation.l\vo weeks before, I had picked up a beagle, starving and full of intestinal parasites, who has gained eigh.t pounds and is on the mend, having just been neutered. J\,nd, on the way to work this morning, thereras a dazed German shepherd, which I eould not coax into the truck. So it continues. In our comlnunity, too often, when a dog is unwanted in a household, the owners choose to dump the dog: You know who ' you are, or perhaps your children recognize the situation. Perhap< in time you will understand the cruelty of this act; perhaps, ironically, you will even meet a similar fate. But it will come back to you - that I know. Apparently the commissioner< expect the dog warden to perform lhe task of picking up strays with an old truck, with pathetic boxes instead of i proper cap .on it, "' he drives the back roads in an aging vehicle with tires that, in the last two weeks alone, have had two flats. Although Mr. Dye has been repeatedly told that he will get a new rruck, the commissioners, seemingly unconcerned that the Ohio Revised Code requires them to provide the county dog ~rden with whatever he needs to do his job, do not. consider this a priority. So, thanks to their inability to follow up on the question of a vehicle (~his has been going on for months!) he must make several runs to pick up mid-sized dogs in a group- thus requiring more gas and wear and tear to the vehicle, his productivity is diminished, and he is not available to answer as many calls. Does this make sense? The dog warden has years of invaluable experience and maintains his compassionare attitude toward his charges, yet is asked to perform an already difficult job with a broken-down truck. The Meigs County Humane Society, of 'vhich I am a member, has suggested that \ve help pay for a new or used truck, properly outfitted. The fact that we are willing to help the county, when we are hardpressed ourselves, despite the fact that this is the county's responsibility, speaks to our commitment to· the dog warden. Odd that the county cannot do the same. How about a little less talk and some action, commissioners?

In a friend of the court brief, Solicitor General Jrh.,odore Olson, the government's top lawyer, asked the Supreme Court ·to hear three appeals that offer an opportunity for a broad ruling on the constitutionality of private school vouchers. By filing an uninvited brief to the nation's top court, the Bush administration is signaling its intention to press the case for programs that allow ux dollars to be used to pay student tuition at religious schools. School vouchers were a centerpiece of President Bush's education · platform during his campaign. Congress rejected vouchers when it recently p3~sed a sWeeping education . reform package not enough Rrpublicans backed the iJ<•a, and must Democra~ oppose vouchers, arguing that they take money away from struggling public .chools. Now the Justice Department ha·s taken up the fight, filing its first brief staking out an ideological position on a case not already under way before the Supreme Court The three cases in question all deal with the constitutionality of the Ohio Pilot Project Scholarship Program. The program provides tuition aid to parents of students in f«iling . public schools in Cleveland. Parents are permitted to use the aid to enroll their children in a private school, including religious schools. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the program on grounds that it violat~s the first Amendment's ban on government promotion, or establishment of religion.

Cincinnati Reds plac~d Deion Sanders on unconditional release waivers Friday, at least temporarily ending an attempt to revive his baseball career. Sanders had been designated for assignment by the Reds last Friday when the team activated Ken Griffey Jr. off the disabled list. The two-sport star, who is still on the roster of the NFL's Washington Redskins, was hitting .1 73 in 32 gaflleS for the Reds. He went 3-for-3 with a home run his first game May 1 against Los Angeles. But he had just 10 hits and one RBI from that point before being designated . for assig1m1ent. Sander~. who ,played for d1e Reds from . 1994-95 and in 1997, was called up iJ after Griffey went on the disabled list with a torn hamstring. Because Sanders was released by · the Reds before July 29, the cornerback is contractually obligated to show up for the Redskins' training camp or risk losing part of his $8 million signing bonus. Redskins coach Marty Schottenheimer said earlier this month that he is inclined to wait until the eve of training camp to decide what to : do with Sanders, who hopes Washington releases him. By waiting so late, the Redskins would make it difficult for Sanders to sign with another NFL team because of salary cap .c onsiderations.

In a friend of the court brief, Solicitor General Jrh.,odore Olson, the government's top lawyer, asked the Supreme Court ·to hear three appeals that offer an opportunity for a broad ruling on the constitutionality of private school vouchers. By filing an uninvited brief to the nation's top court, the Bush administration is signaling its intention to press the case for programs that allow ux dollars to be used to pay student tuition at religious schools. School vouchers were a centerpiece of President Bush's education · platform during his campaign. Congress rejected vouchers when it recently p3~sed a sWeeping education . reform package not enough Rrpublicans backed the iJ<•a, and must Democra~ oppose vouchers, arguing that they take money away from struggling public .chools. Now the Justice Department ha·s taken up the fight, filing its first brief staking out an ideological position on a case not already under way before the Supreme Court The three cases in question all deal with the constitutionality of the Ohio Pilot Project Scholarship Program. The program provides tuition aid to parents of students in f«iling . public schools in Cleveland. Parents are permitted to use the aid to enroll their children in a private school, including religious schools. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the program on grounds that it violat~s the first Amendment's ban on government promotion, or establishment of religion.

"My only response is that he is no longer employed by major league baseball," Alderson said Friday. News of Clark's departure was lint reported Friday by the New York Posr, which said Clark, a major league umpire since t9n, was under investigation for issues related to memorabilia. However, three baseball officials f.uniliar with Cbrk's departure, speaking Friday on condition they not be identified, said the ·termination was due to the improper use of pbne tickets. "I had hoped and I had pleaded with Sandy Alderson to take the route of a less severe punishment - whatever that might be - but obviously, it didn't work," said John Hifschbeck, president of the World Umpires Association. "Despite· what's alleged to have happened, At's a good person. He's givtn 26 years of his life at the major league level, so I'm very saddened by it." It was not immediately clear if Clark was fired or agreed to leave. Clark, who lives in Williamsburg, Va., could not be con(acted by phone. Joel Smith, a lawyer for the World Umpires Association, declined comment. News of Clark's plight quickly spread among umptres. " He's a good friend of mine, and I have a lot of respect for him:' said Mike Reilly, who heard the news when he got to the ballpark Friday. · one or more tickets for economy class, which would allow him to either profit from the difl'erence or use the difl'erence for other travel. Baseball's labor contract with its umpires, agreed to last year. says tickets can be downgraded only with prior approval and if the purpose is to use the difference in fm:s to return home for olf' days between series. The contract prohibits downgrading for "financial or other. gain, including leisure travel." However, one umpire familiar with the situation, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Clark was terminated because he improperly charged two plane tickets that weren't for his travel to a credit card paid for by the conunissioner's office. Plane tickets became an. issue in recent yean among NBA referees, who were allowed to downgrade to economy. They got in trouble, however, for failing to declare the difference on their .taxes.

Mauer was sentenced in April to five months in jail, five months of home detention, three years of supervised release and 800 houn of . ; community service• Twenty other NBA official$ pleaded guilty to similar con• duct.

"My only response is that he is no longer employed by major league baseball," Alderson said Friday. News of Clark's departure was lint reported Friday by the New York Posr, which said Clark, a major league umpire since t9n, was under investigation for issues related to memorabilia. However, three baseball officials f.uniliar with Cbrk's departure, speaking Friday on condition they not be identified, said the ·termination was due to the improper use of pbne tickets. "I had hoped and I had pleaded with Sandy Alderson to take the route of a less severe punishment - whatever that might be - but obviously, it didn't work," said John Hifschbeck, president of the World Umpires Association. "Despite· what's alleged to have happened, At's a good person. He's givtn 26 years of his life at the major league level, so I'm very saddened by it." It was not immediately clear if Clark was fired or agreed to leave. Clark, who lives in Williamsburg, Va., could not be con(acted by phone. Joel Smith, a lawyer for the World Umpires Association, declined comment. News of Clark's plight quickly spread among umptres.

Baseball's labor contract with its umpires, agreed to last year. says tickets can be downgraded only with prior approval and if the purpose is to use the difference in fm:s to return home for olf' days between series. The contract prohibits downgrading for "financial or other. gain, including leisure travel." However, one umpire familiar with the situation, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Clark was terminated because he improperly charged two plane tickets that weren't for his travel to a credit card paid for by the conunissioner's office. Plane tickets became an. issue in recent yean among NBA referees, who were allowed to downgrade to economy. They got in trouble, however, for failing to declare the difference on their .taxes.

UROLOGY CLINIC, INC. They could have caUrd this · amusing comedy " HeUo, Dolittle!" After •II. the sequel ·to Eddie Murphy's 1998 talkinganimal movie is basicaUy a matchmaking comedy like "Hello, Dolly!" but the lucky couple this time is a pair of endangered bears. Murphy, reprising his role as the· doctor who can talk, grunt, squeak and squawk with the animals, agrees to help a tough-talking beaver (voiced by Richard C. Sarafian) to save a forest from a mean, old lumber company. Luckily, the land is home to one of the last Pacific Western bean, a sweet but snobby gal named Ava (voiced by Lisa . Kudrow.) If Dr. Dolittle can get her to mate, the government will protect the land. If not, the species will die and the clearcutting can proceed. The bad news for Dolittle is that the only male Pacific Western bear he can find is the nerdy Archie (voiced terrifically by Steve Zahn), a show-business bear who has spent his whole life riding scooters and dancing. Ava doesn't care for celebrity - she wants a wild one. The paper-thin .plot is totally predictable, but that's also totally forgivable. The movie is only an excuse for Dolittle to play a zoological Art Linldetter in a kind of" Animals Say the Darndest Things!" special. "Dr. Dolitde 2" succeeds in being adorable and f~nny fiom begmmn~ to end, and the army of a";tmal performers almost ca~ t help but be excellent comtc actors because they look so si~~ere.

(GNS Photo by Brtiee McBroom, 20th Century Fox) mouths in the "Dolittle"· movies to make it look like · the creatures are speaking, but the expressions and movements are aU nature's doing. For instance, when Archie sings the disco anthem "I Will Survive," his deadpan style gets the laugh. Likewise, when Dolittle accuses the beaver and his animal cadre of being "some •type of animal mafia;· a raccoon voiced by Michael Rapaport interrupts in a Brooklyn accent: "Mafia?! We don't know nothin ' 'bout no mafia, do we boys?" Only a raccoon, an animal both cute and shifty, could make that work. (Later, the beaver exposes his ties to organized labor by rallying aU creatures great and . sma:U . into a work stoppage until the humans agree. to preserve the forest.) Director Steve Carr ("Next Friday") deserves credit for making a film that doesn't talk down to kids or go too . far over their heads to make adults laugh. Most of the inside gags are non sequiturs, like when Dolittle enters an animal pound and a caged boar whis- . pers, '' Hello, Clarice ..."

UROLOGY CLINIC, INC. They could have caUrd this · amusing comedy " HeUo, Dolittle!" After •II. the sequel ·to Eddie Murphy's 1998 talkinganimal movie is basicaUy a matchmaking comedy like "Hello, Dolly!" but the lucky couple this time is a pair of endangered bears. Murphy, reprising his role as the· doctor who can talk, grunt, squeak and squawk with the animals, agrees to help a tough-talking beaver (voiced by Richard C. Sarafian) to save a forest from a mean, old lumber company. Luckily, the land is home to one of the last Pacific Western bean, a sweet but snobby gal named Ava (voiced by Lisa . Kudrow.) If Dr. Dolittle can get her to mate, the government will protect the land. If not, the species will die and the clearcutting can proceed. The bad news for Dolittle is that the only male Pacific Western bear he can find is the nerdy Archie (voiced terrifically by Steve Zahn), a show-business bear who has spent his whole life riding scooters and dancing. Ava doesn't care for celebrity - she wants a wild one. The paper-thin .plot is totally predictable, but that's also totally forgivable. The movie is only an excuse for Dolittle to play a zoological Art Linldetter in a kind of" Animals Say the Darndest Things!" special. "Dr. Dolitde 2" succeeds in being adorable and f~nny fiom begmmn~ to end, and the army of a";tmal performers almost ca~ t help but be excellent comtc actors because they look so si~~ere. At~lrnators have dt~Jtall~ mampulated the ammals TALK TO THE ANIMALS - Eddie Murphy and the bear in a scene from the motion picture, "Dr. Doolittle 2." (GNS Photo by Brtiee McBroom, 20th Century Fox) mouths in the "Dolittle"· movies to make it look like · the creatures are speaking, but the expressions and movements are aU nature's doing. For instance, when Archie sings the disco anthem "I Will Survive," his deadpan style gets the laugh. Likewise, when Dolittle accuses the beaver and his animal cadre of being "some •type of animal mafia;· a raccoon voiced by Michael Rapaport interrupts in a Brooklyn accent: "Mafia?! We don't know nothin ' 'bout no mafia, do we boys?" Only a raccoon, an animal both cute and shifty, could make that work. (Later, the beaver exposes his ties to organized labor by rallying aU creatures great and . sma:U . into a work stoppage until the humans agree. to preserve the forest.) Director Steve Carr ("Next Friday") deserves credit for making a film that doesn't talk down to kids or go too . far over their heads to make adults laugh. Most of the inside gags are non sequiturs, like when Dolittle enters an animal pound and a caged boar whis- . pers, '' Hello, Clarice ..." The film also offers upliti:ing messages about the FURNITURE & DESIGN importance of family, being kind to all living thing< and Ill. :Z.

Saltimbocca, a dish popular in Rome, is made from slices of veal e.ach covered with a . thin slice of prosciutto and ~ leaf or two of fresh ·sage. Food writer and teacher · James Peterson cooks the same dish with salmon, cut into scaloppini (escalopes) like the veal. It's a liesh and pleasandy different way to cook salmon, especially since it takes only · minutes to make. Peterson includes the recipe in his latest book, "Simply Salmon" (Stewart, Tabori & Chang, $19.95). The book is clear and ele.,gandy designed, as previous 'volumes from this writer have been. Peterson also shoots the fine color photos that illustrate the dishes and processes he writes about - buying, storing and 'prep.tring the .6sh, ' basic recipes and variations. The recipes are quite sophisticated, but not fussy. The following is a perfect example to make at this time of year. Sauteed Salmon Saltimbocca 4 salmon escalopes, about 'l.ini:h thick and 5 inches on each side, .IDout 4 ounces each (see note) Pepper 4 thin (but not paper-thin) slices prosciutto, each slice large enough to cover an 'escalope 8 fresh sage leaves 6 tablespoons butter ~. cup dry white wine 1 Season the escalopes with pepper. Trim the prosciutto slices so they are the exact size of the salmon slices and place a slice on top of each piece of salmon. Place 2 sage leaves on top of the prosciutto and slide a toothpick or wooden skewthrough the leaf., thread it so it goes'through each leaf, the prosciutto and the salmon i11 two places. (You'll need er .two toothpicks·per escalope.) Saute the slices, prosciutto side down first, in a nonstick or well-seasoned pan in 2 tablespoons of butter for about 2 minutes. Make sure the pan .is hot and the butter frothy before you add the salmon, and give the pan a. little shake as soon as you put in the escalopes to keep them from sticking. Turn them over gently with a long spatula and cook for about 30 seconds on the second side. Transfer the salmon to .heated plates and gently pull out the toothpicks. If the saim9n is ioo hot to handle, pull the toothpicks out .with a small pair of pliers. Pour the burned butter out of the saute pan and add the remaining butter. Heat over medium heat .until it barely begins to brown, add the white wine, and boil for about 1 minute. Spoon the sauce over the salmon and serve. Makes 4 light main-.course servings, or 4 first-course servings. · Note: An escalope is simply a relatively thin slice of just about anythin,g.lt takes a little practice and a thin, flexible knife, but most of the technique could be learned by just using common sense. To cut a salmon fillet into escalopes, first remove any pin bones. If you buy a whole fillet or a large piece, make sure the skin is attached to ·make the salmon easier to work with. If you have a tail-end piece, start 4 or 5 inches up from the end and cut at an angle into the salmon. Hold your left hand over the part of the salmon you're going to slice, and slide the . knife toward the tail, keeping the slice the same thickness. Continue cutting the .same :-vay. working back along the fillet, starting about an inch up toward the head for each slice.

With an acre size holding pond .containing about 4,000 fish, t)le new site .will be home to millions of fish in the upconnng years. West Virginia Department of Natural Resources plans to construct two on-site residence for supervisors and a hatchery building, to raise fish from eggs, sometime in the future. ponds at the facility already host a variery of game fish, like northern pike, walleyes, hybrid str\p bass, large mouth bass, musky, tiger musky and NewY. tfS'ky. Mas n Counry Hatchery Manager Tim wisher is also employed at the Pa stine Hatchery, where many of the fi at the Mason Counry facility came from. Swisher brings a degree in wildlife management and 22 years experience at the Palestine Hatchery to the Apple Grove faciliry. He will be one of the residents at the hatchery. Advertising will be placed for the other resident supervisor position when the housing facility is complete. Many fish placed in the holding ponds are less than an inch long and feed on supplemental fish or spawn from other fish species. "We stock fat head minnows in the ponds for forage for the fish ," Swisher said. "Once they've eaten that forage, we drain the ponds out." After the ponds are drained, the fish are removed, counted and transported to wildlife districts throughout West Virginia. The fairmont and Mason wildlife districts are .the hatcheryUs .primary stocking locations; but other parts of the state will also be receiving Mason Counry fish. "Soon we'll go clear over to the eastern panhandle and the southern part of the state," Swisher said. They have drained 10 ponds so far this year and soon plan to drain two more pond to stock Krodel Lake and McClintic. Long range plans also include open tours of the facility.

West Virginia Department of Natural Resources plans to construct two on-site residence for supervisors and a hatchery building, to raise fish from eggs, sometime in the future. ponds at the facility already host a variery of game fish, like northern pike, walleyes, hybrid str\p bass, large mouth bass, musky, tiger musky and NewY. tfS'ky. Mas n Counry Hatchery Manager Tim wisher is also employed at the Pa stine Hatchery, where many of the fi at the Mason Counry facility came from. Swisher brings a degree in wildlife management and 22 years experience at the Palestine Hatchery to the Apple Grove faciliry. He will be one of the residents at the hatchery. Advertising will be placed for the other resident supervisor position when the housing facility is complete. Many fish placed in the holding ponds are less than an inch long and feed on supplemental fish or spawn from other fish species. "We stock fat head minnows in the ponds for forage for the fish ," Swisher said. "Once they've eaten that forage, we drain the ponds out." After the ponds are drained, the fish are removed, counted and transported to wildlife districts throughout West Virginia. The fairmont and Mason wildlife districts are .the hatcheryUs .primary stocking locations; but other parts of the state will also be receiving Mason Counry fish. "Soon we'll go clear over to the eastern panhandle and the southern part of the state," Swisher said. They have drained 10 ponds so far this year and soon plan to drain two more pond to stock Krodel Lake and McClintic. Long range plans also include open tours of the facility.

POMEROY To many a farmer's relief, the first cutting of hay is finally in . Wet weather and . .scattered cloudbursts hindered farmers ~m har- · vesting hay on a more timely basis. Hay quality will Be varied. If possible, make sure your best hay is . properly stored and kept out of the elements. Uncovered baled hay may lose 40 per~ cent or more of its feed value. Remember that just after the first cutting is an excellent time to apply much needed nutrients to your meadows. 111 Extension's Fact Sheet ANR-5-99, "Fertility Management of Meadows," Clif Little, Guernsey County agent, reminds us that for eve'ry ton of hay we remove from a meadow, we need to add 13 pounds of phosphate and 50 pounds of potash. Hal Kneen GUEST VIEW · These nutrients must be replaced through commercial fertilizers, manures· or livestock nutrient recycling. Jf using commercial fertilizers, remember to apply in non- legume · fields , 30 to 50 pounds of nitrogen per acre to help stimulate summer grass growth for the second cutting. Watch out for nitrogen volatilization. Urea-based nitrogen forms need to be incorporated to prevent nitrogen volatilization. Less volatile nitrogen Fire blight a big problem for apples, pears GALLIPOLIS- Since the rain stopped two weeks ago. fruit bearing and ornamental apple and pear trees across the counry have been showing signs of severe fire blight. Tbe browning of the leaves on apple varieties and blackening of leaV<.'S on pear varieties often makes the tree appear as if it has been scorched by fire, hence the name "fire blight." Spread of the disease and deteriomtion of the trees has .been · rapid, which is typical during and just following prolonged rainf.ill like we experienced during the month of May. The first symptoms of fire blight often present themselves in the spring of the year as either blo&mm blight or twig blight. Because most of the locally reported cases did not include .prior probkms with the blossoms or current problems with the fruit, it is likely that many of th e cases in cl1is outbreak began as twig . blight.

Millions of bacteria contained in . the seepage from infected plant tissue are spread through splashing rain; causing the serious outbreak we are experiencing. The blighted twigs will appear water soaked and turn· brown or black. Although th.e leaves will also rurn brown or 'black, they do not fall from the tree, which is a good indicator of fire blight.

Backyald fruit growers who. intend to prune during the summer, should only do so if they are willing to sterilize the pruning equipment with a 10 percent bleach solution between each and every cut.
