Lehman finds deeper rough and more bunker$ LYTHAM ST. ANNES, England (AP) - When Tom Lehman won his only major championship at the British Open five years ago, the best defense Royal Lytham & St. Annes had to offer were the . deep bunkers that· litter the course. A li ngering drought had left the rough so wispy that even a long but wild hitting amateur named Tiger Woods lehman 'tnamged to find his way around with a 66 in the second round. " I don't recall ever being worried about hitting the ball in the rough ," Lehman said. "If you hit it (n there, it was pretty easy to get it out." Lehman didn 't even need to hit a ball off the fairway in his fi rst full practice ro und Monday to lind out what a difference five years can make. Just looking · at rough that grows waist high in some areas was eno ugh to see that things indeed had changed. Instead of th e pale,, thin blades that grew in 1996, there is now deep roush lining the fairways. T his grass not only looks treacherous, it is. " It has that greenish- brown look to it, which says it all," Lehman said. " When it's all brown, that's going to be wispy, dry stuff When the bottom is green, the ' ball is going to burrow in there, and it's no t going to · be fri endly." Friendly may not be the word players attach this week to Royal Lytham & St. Annes, which figures to offer a stiffer challenge than it did in 1996. The Britis'' Open itself will have a far different look than a year ago, when Woods romped to a win at St. Andrews. Woods never found a bunker in follr days last year over an Old Course that played benign in light winds and w ith no rough . If he esr;apes the sand again at Royal Lytham & St. Annes, it might be such a feat that it will merit a plaque like the one for Bobby Jones for an iron from the sand that helped him win the 1926 Open . Fourteen bunkers have either been odded or reopened sin ce 1996, bringing the total to 196. That means eac h hole averages about 11 bunkers. Wars~ yet, som~ have been deepened, with imposing sod walls that ca n swallow a golf ball or force players to play out sideways or, in ·Some cases, backward. Lehman haq just finished putting on the eighth green Monday when he ' turned to look at one of the bunkers. " I bet it's I 0 feet," he said. Not willing to venture in there himself, Le.hman asked for volunteers in the gallery to step into the bunker so he could get a better idea. One . man who annou nced he was 6-foot1 took him up on the offer, and his head was 3 feet from the top. At St. Andrews , Woods was able to blast tee shots past many o f the fa irway bunkers. He'll have a tougher tinie this week on a course that rewards accuracy more than length. "There's bunkers for everybody," Le hman sa id. " I don't care how long or short you are. You have to deal with bunkers somewhe re." Lehman, of course, has fond memories here, where he ope'ned with a pair of 67s and then .took comma nd of the tournament with a 64 in the third round. It is his only major championship win, though in the days before Woods . began to dominate the majors, he tho ught he'd have more. Leh!U'IIl believes his game can be just as good as when he won. "My good is just as good, but my bad. is worse," Lehman said. "Therefore my confidence isn't quite as high as it was then . At that time I expected to play well every time I teed it up." Woods, of course, feels that way now. Perhaps so does Retief Goosen, who ' followed his U .S. Open win by taking the Scottish Open on Sunday. With Woods faltering in the U.S. Ope n and having trouble with his game, others are suddenly in contention again. Sergio Garcia·is among ,them, after two breakthrough wins on the PGA tour. ''I'm playing well and I like my chances," Garcia said. A light wind was blowing as Garcia arrived at the course Monday ro practic<:. H e saw the rough and the bunkers, hut still thought one thing was missing., "Wind," he said. "I want the wind to blow this week." If it does, the rough figures to come into play eve n more and bunkers will· swallow up shot after ., shot. w~~=_,;:...:_..::;__'-!.::::.:_..:._.:.;._...:.__~...:.__.........__.: .__ · _..;.:....!,..J And that is whar a British Open is TIGER PlAYING IN A SANDBOX Tiger Woods takes his ball out of a all about. bunker near the 9th green during practice for the British Open Golf Championship Wednesday.

Sanders, 38, who h as changed his name to Siddique Abdullah Hasan, claim ed the. state bore some responsibility for Vallandingham's d eath because officials would nor negotiate in good faith. Hasan had blamed the riot in part on the prison administration 's intent to vaccinate prisoners against tuberculosis , which drew the objections of some Muslim inmates, including H asa n . Chief Justice Thomas Moyer, writing for the court, said evide nce Hasan 's lawyers presented to show that prison administrators may. have contributed to the tensions that led to the riot was "utterly irrelevant" to whether Hasan was guilty. "The guilt phase of the trial was not supposed to be a freefloating inquiry into who should bear the most blame for the riot/ ' Moyer wrote. "Let us be clear: The authorities in lawful charge of a prison have no duty to 'negotiate in good faith' with ' h;mates who have seized th e prison and , taken hostage s, and th e 'failure' of those authorities to. negotiate is not an available defense to inmates charged with the murder of a hostage."

It's the same snare of contentment that's befallen attempts to establish an energy policy so shortages and high prices don't become the national norm. After the gas lines of 1974 and 1979, we accepted higher prices for fuel. Some folks even yearn for those hal cyon days of th e early '80s when today's prices were ~cience fiction at best. Reality took over in the past year. We now understand America's economic decline is tied in part to rising demand and cost for energy. We saw it when gas spiked suddenly last summer and heating oil went through the roof over the winter. We heard a lot.of calls for action belure energy's impact really takes it down for the count. Like it or not, George W. and his staff came up with a plan to stave off future shock. Maybe it's just that la•y summertime mentality, but the plan doesn't seem to get much attention anymore. Well, winter will be back within five months and if we need a rude awakening, a particularly chilly season with more going out of our pockets to stay warm is all the reminder we need. Don't fall into the trap. The looming energy crisis hasn 't gone away - it's on su mm er break, like everyoi1e else seems to be. Come fall, it'll be back again, and we'll be left wondering why the Bush plan or a new proposal has been left behind.

Exit polb in 2000 revealed that white males support smaller government, Social Security reform and tax cuts. It's a • fair bet that they. also support inore energy production over conservation and national missile defense, which Democrats oppose. In upcoming elections, however, Democrats may be able to take away the mantle of fiscal responsibility from Republicans if Bush's tax cuts seem too large. . On religion, though , Democrats continue to trail. Bush carried regular churchgoers 63 percent to 36 . percent, while Gore carried those who never attend church by 61 to 30 percent. With a · few exceptions, Dem(lcrats show fear and hostility toward Bush's idea of inviting church-based organizations to offer social services, and they oppose vouchers that would allow poor parents to send their children to Catholic schools. Democrats might be helped politically if Bush decides to ban federal funding of embryonic stem-cell research, as this · position would indicate he had caved into arguably extreme religious dogmatism. On the other hand, Democrats seem to strictly follow a dogma dictated by its own liberal hard-liners, such as the American Civil Liberties Union, People for the American Way and the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League. In 2000, Gore and Democratic House candidates carried only 44 percent of · married voters, among whose main concerns is the moral climate of the country. It could be that Democrats will get lucky, and a bad economy will give them an advantage in upcoming elections. But more likely, as Blueprii1t declares on its cover, the key is: "It's the Culture, Stupid!" or another." With the two parties now in a tie for the allegiance of voters, the winner of future elections will be the one. that can hold and turn out its base, attract swings and even siphon ·offldyalists to the· other side. That's what President Bush did in 2000 with his compassionate conservative theme, which allowed him to limit Gore's advantage among white women to just 2 points. Prior to the Monica Lewinsky debacle in his second term, Clinton made inroads among white males and married voters by sounding tough on crime, calling for the hiring of 100,000 more law enforcement officers, and backing weifare reform and V-chips to block televisian pornography. He also said (not meaning it, of course) abortion should be "safe, legal and rare."ln the end, he vetoed a ban on partial-birth abortion. Moreover, Clinton declared that "the era of big government is over" and that affirmative action needed to be ''mended." Little changed, but he sounded moderate. · · Gore, however, reverted to .o ut-andout populism and suffered for it. He carried only 36 percent of the white-male vote __ the same proportion as 1988 candidate Michael Dukakis did. Non-college educated white men, who ought to be a bedrock Democratic constituency based on economics, went for Bush 63 percent to 34 percent. Democratic Congressional candidates fared no better than Gore among white males, who supported the GOP in (Morton Kondracke is exeCJ~tive editor of House races by S9 percent to 38 percent and in Senate races by 60 to 38 percent.

Energy issues won't go away because they've eased offfor now Reports this week indicate that enerb'Y issues are less of a concern to Anwricans. Gas prices have moderated, 1t hasn't been a particularly brutal summer and electricity use is down, inspired in part by California's supply problems. Eveii Vice President Cheney has reduced electric usage in his res ide nce by 25 p~rcent. His boss President tlu sh is having a tough time, therefore, convincing anybody oi th e· need to get his energy policy proposal approved. · It sounds like we 're falling into that old trap again. It's the same snare of contentment that's befallen attempts to establish an energy policy so shortages and high prices don't become the national norm. After the gas lines of 1974 and 1979, we accepted higher prices for fuel. Some folks even yearn for those hal cyon days of th e early '80s when today's prices were ~cience fiction at best. Reality took over in the past year. We now understand America's economic decline is tied in part to rising demand and cost for energy. We saw it when gas spiked suddenly last summer and heating oil went through the roof over the winter. We heard a lot.of calls for action belure energy's impact really takes it down for the count. Like it or not, George W. and his staff came up with a plan to stave off future shock. Maybe it's just that la•y summertime mentality, but the plan doesn't seem to get much attention anymore. Well, winter will be back within five months and if we need a rude awakening, a particularly chilly season with more going out of our pockets to stay warm is all the reminder we need. Don't fall into the trap. The looming energy crisis hasn 't gone away - it's on su mm er break, like everyoi1e else seems to be. Come fall, it'll be back again, and we'll be left wondering why the Bush plan or a new proposal has been left behind.

Exit polb in 2000 revealed that white males support smaller government, Social Security reform and tax cuts. It's a • fair bet that they. also support inore energy production over conservation and national missile defense, which Democrats oppose. In upcoming elections, however, Democrats may be able to take away the mantle of fiscal responsibility from Republicans if Bush's tax cuts seem too large. . On religion, though , Democrats continue to trail. Bush carried regular churchgoers 63 percent to 36 . percent, while Gore carried those who never attend church by 61 to 30 percent. With a · few exceptions, Dem(lcrats show fear and hostility toward Bush's idea of inviting church-based organizations to offer social services, and they oppose vouchers that would allow poor parents to send their children to Catholic schools. Democrats might be helped politically if Bush decides to ban federal funding of embryonic stem-cell research, as this · position would indicate he had caved into arguably extreme religious dogmatism. On the other hand, Democrats seem to strictly follow a dogma dictated by its own liberal hard-liners, such as the American Civil Liberties Union, People for the American Way and the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League. In 2000, Gore and Democratic House candidates carried only 44 percent of · married voters, among whose main concerns is the moral climate of the country. It could be that Democrats will get lucky, and a bad economy will give them an advantage in upcoming elections. But more likely, as Blueprii1t declares on its cover, the key is: "It's the Culture, Stupid!" or another." With the two parties now in a tie for the allegiance of voters, the winner of future elections will be the one. that can hold and turn out its base, attract swings and even siphon ·offldyalists to the· other side. That's what President Bush did in 2000 with his compassionate conservative theme, which allowed him to limit Gore's advantage among white women to just 2 points. Prior to the Monica Lewinsky debacle in his second term, Clinton made inroads among white males and married voters by sounding tough on crime, calling for the hiring of 100,000 more law enforcement officers, and backing weifare reform and V-chips to block televisian pornography. He also said (not meaning it, of course) abortion should be "safe, legal and rare."ln the end, he vetoed a ban on partial-birth abortion. Moreover, Clinton declared that "the era of big government is over" and that affirmative action needed to be ''mended." Little changed, but he sounded moderate. · · Gore, however, reverted to .o ut-andout populism and suffered for it. He carried only 36 percent of the white-male vote __ the same proportion as 1988 candidate Michael Dukakis did. Non-college educated white men, who ought to be a bedrock Democratic constituency based on economics, went for Bush 63 percent to 34 percent. Democratic Congressional candidates fared no better than Gore among white males, who supported the GOP in (Morton Kondracke is exeCJ~tive editor of House races by S9 percent to 38 percent and in Senate races by 60 to 38 percent.

Tom Glavine eyed aU the changes they've made to one of his favorite ballparks and wondered how much they would affect the way he pitches there. The answer: not one bit. Glavine was his usual self at Cinergy Field, pitching 6 2-3 innings on a muggy Wednesday night as the Atlanta Braves beat the Cincinnati Reds 3-1 in a game shortened by rain to 7 1/2 innings. Keith Lockhart crossed up the Reds'.strategy and hit a thre e-run homer that helped th e Braves move back into first place in the NL East, a game ahead of Philadelphia. After losing three in a row, the Braves have won two straight with impeccable performances by Greg Maddux and Glavine (9-5), both of whom are on impre$sive streaks. · "We pr~tty much count on that every time · out," Lockhart said . "We're surprised if they don't throw well.Jt:s a good time for them to get roUing." Glavine has been on a roll at Cinergy sin.ce the first day he set foot inside the place. Back then, it was called Riverfront Stadium and bore a close resemblance to old Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium, except for the artificial turf. As he got ready !b pitch, the left-hander wondered whether his luck would change like the ballpark.

' Browns sign Andre King, still waiting on Warren CLEVELAND (AP) With training camp opening in less than a week, the Cleveland Browns signed another draft choke Wednesday and said they doubt.ed top pick Gerard Warren would report on time. The team also said it is con. tinuing contract talks with veteran offensive lineman Tony Jones . The Browns .agreed to terms on a threF-year contract with rookie wide receiver Andre King and signed free agent offensive lineman Damon Nivens to a one-year deal. They released fuUback Chris Floyd and punter Gabe Lindstrom . King was selected in the seventh round of this year's draft (245th overall) after playing at Miami under new Browns coach Butch Davis. The 5-foot-11 King had 11 catches for 151 yards and one touchdown last season for the Hurricanes. Dwigl,lt Clark, the Browns' director of football operations, said he doubted ifWarren, a defensive tackle who was the No. 3 overall pick, would report Sunday with the team's other rookies. Training camp for rookies opens Monday, with the full squad . scheduled to begin two- a-day worliouts July 27. Clark described Warren's situation, as "iffY," saying, "There's probably a 20 percent Warren will be here" Sunday. Clark also, said he doubted wide receiver Quincy Morgan, the team's second-round pick from Kansas State, would report Sunday. But he expressed optimism that both players will be signed soon. "I know b0 th sides want to be here," Clark said. "The players have indicated they want it done because they want to get here. Both players have a chance to start ." Because most of this year's top draft picks are still unsigned, Warren's agent, Joel Segal, could be waiting to see . I what Arizona will give offensi"e tackle Leonard Davis or how much Cincinnati will pay defensive · end Justin Smith. Davis was picked No.2 overall and Smith was the No. 4 choice. Clark said Segal has . not indicated he will hold his client out. ~ �Inside: • ·The Daily Sentinel Meigs Legion wins, Page B3 TVC football schedule, Page B3 Diamond Roundup, Page1B6 The Daily Sentinel encourages your support of these area businesses who make this page possible. • Thunday, July 19, 1001 ' .If \ / Jj ..,:..j (~ Jj r) j _}_,.

Kyger, New Haven advance FROM OVP STAFF REPORTS CHESHIRE, Ohio - The New Haven Reds and the Kyger Creek Boboats became the final two teams to earn quarterfinal berths in the 2001 Kyger Creek Little League Tournament witli wins Wednesday. They will meet in the final quarterfinal matchup Friday at 8 p.m. New Haven Reds 7, Kyger Creek II 6 New Haven held off a late rally by Kyger Creek II to preserve a 7-6 win and a spot in the second round. After trailing 7-3 going into the fifth; K.C. scored two runs in each of the final innings to make it a game .. Two New Haven er.rors allowed Brandon Burnette and Sean Sand, to score in the K.C. sixth, but a running catch by Buddy Rose going to his left in center field ended the contest. The Reds' defense also squelched a potential Kyger Creek rally in the bottom of the third with a nifty double play. With K.C. runners on second and third with one out,', New Haven left frelder Keith Pearson made i running catch on a sinking liner hit by Brandon Burnette and nailed the runner who hac! strayed from third. New Haven plated three runs in the opening half-frame .as shortstop Brenton Clark hit a two-run single back up . the middle to start the scoring. Clark also had an RBJ-double in the third to earn player of the game honors for New Haven. Kyger plated two runs in the second as Chris Misner had a single and Sean Sand• ripped an RBI double into right. Kyger starter Josh Peck struck out eight batters in four innings of work. He surrendered just three hits in taking THE FALL OF THE REDS 1 Glavine still at home at Cinergy CINCINNATI (AP) - The field is grass, the walls are irregular and the outfield stands are open, letting the wind come into play. Tom Glavine eyed aU the changes they've made to one of his favorite ballparks and wondered how much they would affect the way he pitches there. The answer: not one bit. Glavine was his usual self at Cinergy Field, pitching 6 2-3 innings on a muggy Wednesday night as the Atlanta Braves beat the Cincinnati Reds 3-1 in a game shortened by rain to 7 1/2 innings. Keith Lockhart crossed up the Reds'.strategy and hit a thre e-run homer that helped th e Braves move back into first place in the NL East, a game ahead of Philadelphia. After losing three in a row, the Braves have won two straight with impeccable performances by Greg Maddux and Glavine (9-5), both of whom are on impre$sive streaks. · "We pr~tty much count on that every time · out," Lockhart said . "We're surprised if they don't throw well.Jt:s a good time for them to get roUing." Glavine has been on a roll at Cinergy sin.ce the first day he set foot inside the place. Back then, it was called Riverfront Stadium and bore a close resemblance to old Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium, except for the artificial turf. As he got ready !b pitch, the left-hander wondered whether his luck would change like the ballpark.

' Browns sign Andre King, still waiting on Warren CLEVELAND (AP) With training camp opening in less than a week, the Cleveland Browns signed another draft choke Wednesday and said they doubt.ed top pick Gerard Warren would report on time. The team also said it is con. tinuing contract talks with veteran offensive lineman Tony Jones . The Browns .agreed to terms on a threF-year contract with rookie wide receiver Andre King and signed free agent offensive lineman Damon Nivens to a one-year deal. They released fuUback Chris Floyd and punter Gabe Lindstrom . King was selected in the seventh round of this year's draft (245th overall) after playing at Miami under new Browns coach Butch Davis. The 5-foot-11 King had 11 catches for 151 yards and one touchdown last season for the Hurricanes. Dwigl,lt Clark, the Browns' director of football operations, said he doubted ifWarren, a defensive tackle who was the No. 3 overall pick, would report Sunday with the team's other rookies. Training camp for rookies opens Monday, with the full squad . scheduled to begin two- a-day worliouts July 27. Clark described Warren's situation, as "iffY," saying, "There's probably a 20 percent Warren will be here" Sunday. Clark also, said he doubted wide receiver Quincy Morgan, the team's second-round pick from Kansas State, would report Sunday. But he expressed optimism that both players will be signed soon. "I know b0 th sides want to be here," Clark said. "The players have indicated they want it done because they want to get here. Both players have a chance to start ." Because most of this year's top draft picks are still unsigned, Warren's agent, Joel Segal, could be waiting to see . I what Arizona will give offensi"e tackle Leonard Davis or how much Cincinnati will pay defensive · end Justin Smith. Davis was picked No.2 overall and Smith was the No. 4 choice. Clark said Segal has . not indicated he will hold his client out. ~ ���• • - Page B 4 • The Dally Sentinel Tburad!IY.

In June, 196,622 individuals received cash benefits from the state, the lowest level since March 1967, Greg. Moody, interim director of the Department ~f Job a;,d Family Services, said in a statement. H'uron County had no adults on welfare at the beginning of June, when checks are issued, the first time a county had no adults . on the rolls in decades, Mooc!y said. In October 1997, Ohio decided to cut welfare recipients' cash benefits after three years . After that, recipients cannot get cash assistance for at least two years. They are still eligible for other benefits, including food stamps, child care, health insurance and job "training, Since October 1997, when 422,000 Ohioans received cash benefits, the caseload has decreased by 53 percent, the state said, It has decreased 74 percent since the cash assistance caseload peaked in March 1992 at nearly 750,000.
