DEAR WORRIED IN N.Y.: While DNA testing is more accurate when both parents participate, it is not necessary for Jane to be involved in order to disprove paternity. . A simple paternity · test can determine if Lloyd is NOT the father of these children. Since Lloyd loves the kids, and i11tends to continue paying child support, I say he should forget about the testing until the children are older and want to have it done. If, by chance, the results produced a "surprise:' it could tear up the whole family. Who needs this kind of trouble? Dear Ann Landers: ru a person with pmltiplesclerosis (MS), I was troubled by the letter from "Palm Harbor, Fla." who complained of being criticized for parking in a handicapped space. I, and many others with MS, have experienced the same kind of igoorance from strangers. Persons with MS have good and bad days. Some days, I ·can't get out of bed, and other days, I appear perfectly normal. I say "appear:' because I still have pain, muscle spasms and visual problems, and get severely fatigued brushing my teeth. I not only don't know how I will feel from day to day, but I don't know from hour to hour. There are some days when I look perfectly healthy. Please let America know that there are many conditions a person can have that aren't obvious. Please don't criticize me until you have walked in my shoes, or should L say, on my painful legs. I would gladly change places with you, and park six blocks away. - K. FROM CALI• FORNIA DEAR K.: Here's your lette;, and my thanks for writing it.

FGBMFI - a worldwide fellowsliip of Christian laymen '- now has I, 700 chap~ ters, but the problem isn't solved yet.

I " BIRTHS Ann Landers ADVICE children will be devastated. This is a ticking bomb waiting to go off. What should we do? -LEGITIMATELY WORRIED IN N.Y. DEAR WORRIED IN N.Y.: While DNA testing is more accurate when both parents participate, it is not necessary for Jane to be involved in order to disprove paternity. . A simple paternity · test can determine if Lloyd is NOT the father of these children. Since Lloyd loves the kids, and i11tends to continue paying child support, I say he should forget about the testing until the children are older and want to have it done. If, by chance, the results produced a "surprise:' it could tear up the whole family. Who needs this kind of trouble? Dear Ann Landers: ru a person with pmltiplesclerosis (MS), I was troubled by the letter from "Palm Harbor, Fla." who complained of being criticized for parking in a handicapped space. I, and many others with MS, have experienced the same kind of igoorance from strangers. Persons with MS have good and bad days. Some days, I ·can't get out of bed, and other days, I appear perfectly normal. I say "appear:' because I still have pain, muscle spasms and visual problems, and get severely fatigued brushing my teeth. I not only don't know how I will feel from day to day, but I don't know from hour to hour. There are some days when I look perfectly healthy. Please let America know that there are many conditions a person can have that aren't obvious. Please don't criticize me until you have walked in my shoes, or should L say, on my painful legs. I would gladly change places with you, and park six blocks away. - K. FROM CALI• FORNIA DEAR K.: Here's your lette;, and my thanks for writing it. Keep reading for another one in the same category: Dear Ann L!utders: The writer from Palm Harbor, Aa., pointed out that it .isn't • wise to jump to conclusions. "Palm Harbor" said he was disabled, but didn't look it. Someone criticized him for parking in a space reserved for the handicapped. · I have a severe lung ·condition that makes it very difficult for me to walk . more than several feet without stopping to catch · my breath (thanks to Agent Orange). I've received many dirty looks and some unbecoming gestures from motorists who think I am trying to pull a fast one. I hope the people who read this will refrain from rushing to judgment when they see a driver they believe is "perfectly healthy" pull into a handicapped space.

The two have been close in several recent p'olls, which also reflected Gore improving in the public's opinion and Bush slipping.

(AP) Ken G riffey Jr. got a loudea ovati'on after grounding out Thursday than Dante Bichette go t when he stepped into the batter's box. Unusual? Not at all. · While Griffey gets most of the attention in the Cincinnati · Reds' training camp, Bichette gets to blend in quietly with his new team. As far as he's concerned,. it's a perfect arrangement. "It's allowed me to just work on my game instead of coming here and trying to show 'em I can hit home runs or something like that, which I'm not going to do," Bi chette said. "Griffey's going to take a lot of pressure off of everybody." No one knows it better than 'B ichette, who was the Reds' top offseason acquisition until Junior came on 'board Feb. 10. The Reds got Bichette from Colorado on ·oct. 30 to replace Greg Vaughn, who hit 45 homers and d~ove in 118 runs as their cleanup hitter in· '99. Bichette supported the trade because it allowed him to play closer to his home in Orlando, Fla. Playing for the Reds will . give him more · time with his wife and two chjldren. only reservations· His involved the expectations. Bichette has driven in at least 118 runs in each of the past five seasons and batted .300 ill. six of the last seven, but has hit 40 homers only once. · ., He wasn't sure how he'd react whetl fans expected him to be Greg Vaughn Jr. "That was the one thing I was a little concerned about," he said. "I didn 't want to come over· here and try to hit home runs because I've never h'it 45. "I'm more of a 25-to-30 guy who drives in runs and drives in the ·tough runs - ·late in the game. two outs, tw ostrikes. Fm not going to hit the home runs. Griffey hits the home runs and that kind o( takes the pressure off of me." Cincinnati fans · already know about Bichette firsthand.

(AP) Ken G riffey Jr. got a loudea ovati'on after grounding out Thursday than Dante Bichette go t when he stepped into the batter's box. Unusual? Not at all. · While Griffey gets most of the attention in the Cincinnati · Reds' training camp, Bichette gets to blend in quietly with his new team. As far as he's concerned,. it's a perfect arrangement. "It's allowed me to just work on my game instead of coming here and trying to show 'em I can hit home runs or something like that, which I'm not going to do," Bi chette said. "Griffey's going to take a lot of pressure off of everybody." No one knows it better than 'B ichette, who was the Reds' top offseason acquisition until Junior came on 'board Feb. 10. The Reds got Bichette from Colorado on ·oct. 30 to replace Greg Vaughn, who hit 45 homers and d~ove in 118 runs as their cleanup hitter in· '99. Bichette supported the trade because it allowed him to play closer to his home in Orlando, Fla. Playing for the Reds will . give him more · time with his wife and two chjldren. only reservations· His involved the expectations. Bichette has driven in at least 118 runs in each of the past five seasons and batted .300 ill. six of the last seven, but has hit 40 homers only once. · ., He wasn't sure how he'd react whetl fans expected him to be Greg Vaughn Jr. "That was the one thing I was a little concerned about," he said. "I didn 't want to come over· here and try to hit home runs because I've never h'it 45. "I'm more of a 25-to-30 guy who drives in runs and drives in the ·tough runs - ·late in the game. two outs, tw ostrikes. Fm not going to hit the home runs. Griffey hits the home runs and that kind o( takes the pressure off of me." Cincinnati fans · already know about Bichette firsthand.

We just didn't play." Jalen Rose led the Pacers with 22 points; Reggie Miller had 16. important for us than it was for Public Notice 7.
