There are many 7- lls down south, but I know how the coach feels. Sco uting put me on the right track. and it probably did the _ same for many of yo u. That's w hy I still sup pqr~ Scouting, lo these many years after my fi reside experiences. I remember it well ... I ran home from the old tin Scout hut, my Scout Handbook firnlly in my 1_1 -year-old grasp. , Eager to start learning how to be a good Scout and how to earn higher tanks, I bypassed supper that night. After all, anyone who's ever been involved in Scouting knows new recruits start with the undistinguished rank of Scout - or "Scrub" as the senior members of my troop called it, Being a Scrub meant kitchen duty on all campouts and having to clean the patrol room when you get back to the hut. Neither of these two options was.very glamorous, to say the least. The Scrubs also were the ones sent on the "snipe hunts." Unfortunately, there are no known p\ctures of these elusive creatures who come out o nly at night, so as a young Scrub, I was. forced to visualize the snipe from the sketchy details given to m e by my senior ·or else great wild snipe. We trekked about a mile into the bru sh before Steve yelled, " Theeerrrre's SAR visits Rio Grande one! !!" R. Shawn Lewis MY VIEW " Where?" we cried, h aving neither seen nor heard anything. " In the clearing!" Steve retorted. "John, he's right beside you , Stand sti ll , and whatever you do, don 't look it straight in the eyes." "Uh ,. OK," John, the assistant patrol leader, called back, a quaver in his voice. · There was a rattle among the fallen leaves. _ "Did you get it?" Steve yelled. "JOHN ... DID YOU GET IT?" . "No, man. It got away," he replied. "I think it's coming your way, It's a BIG HAIRY ONE." "Yeah, I see it. Look out, Sh awn, it's right · behind you ." ,I readied my paper bag and took a deep breath , I still couldn't see it, but I was ready to claim my first snipe trophy, I launched my bag blindly into the night. I heard it land, and I reached for the lighter in my packer. I had to see my prize. I peeked into the bag, w hich glowed orange from the faint flame• of my lighter. Much to my surprise there was nothing in there. T h e light must have scared it away. That was the closest I ever came to trapping a great wild snipe.

The fireside kitchen h ad been cleaned, and the firewood gathered for the night. " Seeing the campsite was policed and everything satisfactory, my patrol leader, Steve, announced to his six-member squad that the snipe hunt would begin in five minutes, "Remember not to bring your flashlights , guys, 'cause snipe are afraid of light," he said. "But how will we know if we see one?" _ asked my best friend Jeff. "You'll know," Steve said. "Trust me, you'll know. And don't forget the paper bags." " What do we need paper bags for?" I asked. "You've gotta have somethin g to cat ch them in, Scrub," Steve replied. "Any more (R Shawn .Lewis is managing editor questions? All right , then, let's go."

There are many 7- lls down south, but I know how the coach feels. Sco uting put me on the right track. and it probably did the _ same for many of yo u. That's w hy I still sup pqr~ Scouting, lo these many years after my fi reside experiences. I remember it well ... I ran home from the old tin Scout hut, my Scout Handbook firnlly in my 1_1 -year-old grasp. , Eager to start learning how to be a good Scout and how to earn higher tanks, I bypassed supper that night. After all, anyone who's ever been involved in Scouting knows new recruits start with the undistinguished rank of Scout - or "Scrub" as the senior members of my troop called it, Being a Scrub meant kitchen duty on all campouts and having to clean the patrol room when you get back to the hut. Neither of these two options was.very glamorous, to say the least. The Scrubs also were the ones sent on the "snipe hunts." Unfortunately, there are no known p\ctures of these elusive creatures who come out o nly at night, so as a young Scrub, I was. forced to visualize the snipe from the sketchy details given to m e by my senior ·or else great wild snipe. We trekked about a mile into the bru sh before Steve yelled, " Theeerrrre's SAR visits Rio Grande one! !!" R. Shawn Lewis MY VIEW " Where?" we cried, h aving neither seen nor heard anything. " In the clearing!" Steve retorted. "John, he's right beside you , Stand sti ll , and whatever you do, don 't look it straight in the eyes." "Uh ,. OK," John, the assistant patrol leader, called back, a quaver in his voice. · There was a rattle among the fallen leaves. _ "Did you get it?" Steve yelled. "JOHN ... DID YOU GET IT?" . "No, man. It got away," he replied. "I think it's coming your way, It's a BIG HAIRY ONE." "Yeah, I see it. Look out, Sh awn, it's right · behind you ." ,I readied my paper bag and took a deep breath , I still couldn't see it, but I was ready to claim my first snipe trophy, I launched my bag blindly into the night. I heard it land, and I reached for the lighter in my packer. I had to see my prize. I peeked into the bag, w hich glowed orange from the faint flame• of my lighter. Much to my surprise there was nothing in there. T h e light must have scared it away. That was the closest I ever came to trapping a great wild snipe. Support Scouting, folks, If you -don't, the snipe populatibn is bound -to get out of hand. Scouts. T hen came my first snipe hunt. It '\vas a brisk Novemb_e r eve. The fireside kitchen h ad been cleaned, and the firewood gathered for the night. " Seeing the campsite was policed and everything satisfactory, my patrol leader, Steve, announced to his six-member squad that the snipe hunt would begin in five minutes, "Remember not to bring your flashlights , guys, 'cause snipe are afraid of light," he said. "But how will we know if we see one?" _ asked my best friend Jeff. "You'll know," Steve said. "Trust me, you'll know. And don't forget the paper bags." " What do we need paper bags for?" I asked. "You've gotta have somethin g to cat ch them in, Scrub," Steve replied. "Any more (R Shawn .Lewis is managing editor questions? All right , then, let's go."

DNC official! on Thursday reported raising $26 million in the first three months of the year while the Republican National Conunittee said it had raised $24 million in the same period. The Democrats also reported having more than $21 million on hand at the beginning of April - four times t , amount it had at dill time four years a . The DNC had S3 million in debt, mea ng it had S18 million to spend. The C, which reported no debt, also had 8 million. Ed Rendell, general chainnan of the DNC, credited much of his party's fundraising surge to Clinton, who he said helped raise about $13 million in the first three months of the year. "I attribute it to just sterling work by the president, who was indefatigable in going out there and helping us;' Rendell said Thursday. RNC Chairman Jim Nicholson boasted of the Republicans' 55,000 new donors during the period. "There's never been .such excitement in the Republican ranks;' he said. . · Since Jan.

(AP) O n a south Florida fund-raising mission in Elian Gonzalez's borrowed backyard, Vice President AI Gore is trying to change the subject from tl-iat little boy's saga to more reliable winners for him - Me~licare and the strong economy. This morning, he was leading a public discussion on whether Medicare coverage for prescription drugs should be part of the Democratic Parry's official platform. Winding up for the discu~ SJOn, Gore told patrons at a S 10,000-per-plate fund-raiser that his support for the Medicare t•xpansion is one big difference · between him and his Republican ' opponent,Texas Gov. prt•sidential (;corge W. Bush. Gore also celebrated the 99-0 Senate vote earlier on Thursday reJecting the $483 billion, five- splitting with President Clinton and other Democrats last week and calling for U.S. residency for the child and his family. Before Gore left Washington on Thursday, residents of the suburban·Washington neighborhood where Elian 's father is staying at the home of a Cuban diplomat." sniffed at Gore's motives in endorsing special residency. "He had no business to ever step there .... I think he is doing this to get votes," said Kitry Strauss. Bush, who agrees with Gqre on giving the Gonzalez family residency, repeated suggestions Thursday, on a campaign trip to California, that Gore's stand amounted to political opportunism. Activists in Aorida's CubanAmerican community are adamant about keeping Elian here. aggressive Cahfornta campa1gn inee said in Sacramento. uThat's •, wishful thinking on the part of AI Gore." On his campaign plane, Bush personally promised CampbeU a vigorous California campaign, Campbell said. 1 "I think it's prerty clear that if Governor Bush does well in California, it's going to help the statewide ~ ticket," Campbell said on the plane after meeting with the Texas governor. "If it doesn't happen, if he's doing very badly, well, we saw what happens when the top of the ticket doesn't do well before in California:· he said. He was referring to the 1998 California election~. when GOP gubernatorial nominee Dan Lungren lost co Democrat Gray Davis in a landslide, and all Republicans but two were swept from statewide office. To CampbeU and to many political analysts, control of Congress could also hinge on Bush's . . perforrr!ance in California. The congressman named five close congressional races in the state that could help Republicans maintain or lose their thin majoriry in the House, and said Bush's showing here could tip the scales. President Bush all but conceded California to Bill ·Clinton in his 1992 re-election effort, and lost both the stare and the White House. The Texas governor, who was <;leeply involved in his father's campaign, said he had learned from the experience.

A trial for convicted murderer Aaron Gray on his June 1999 escape from the Mason County Jail has been continued, a spokesworrian for Prosecuting ,Attorney Diana Johnson said. Gray w.is ·ihdicted in January on a felony charge of escaping the custody of the counry sheriff. He was to stand trial Tuesd~y. but his attorney, Daniel Corey of Poca, filed a moti_on for continuance. According to Corey's continuance motion, "due to the fact that unforeseen developments involving the unauthorized, unconstitutiona! and without council visits by the Mason Counry Sheriff's Department to my client in the Regional Jail have taken place in the last three weeks. Any damage resulting thereof; the defendant is entided to investigate." A depury circuit clerk said the date for the continuance has not been set yet. Corey submitted a letter, dated March 31, to Circuit Judge Clarence Watt on Gray's visit from Sheriff Troy "Sharry" Huffman and Invesrigator Cure McConihay. "A5 you know .from reading the Point Pleasant Register, _SherIff'Troy Hutlinan and Investigator Cyrt McComhay have pa1d unscheduled, unauthorized and impermissible visits to my client, Aaron Gray, at th~ South Central Regional Jail," the letter states. "1 have interviewed the correctional officers at said faciliry, and they inform me that the officers claimed they Gray were present for an 'attornev visit,"' a.ccording to the letter. ' The letter continues, "not only did these two officers fail to even remotely attempt to contact my office, they expressly engaged in an attempt to deny my client his right to counsel as well as grossly un ethical conduct. · "Simply because the former plea has been upheld by the trial court, this does not give these police officers the right to speak to my client without my permission in an ongoing procedural appeal, on the merits, with regard to the attempt by Mr. Gray to gain a new trial (based upon Mr. Feytons failure to adequately prepare my client for trial and/ or plea)." The letter claims that the "alleged involvement last year of Mr. Huffinan in providing legal advice to Mr. Gray without Mr: Peyton's permission is quite p,ossi. bly an integral ele!llent in Mr. Gray's appeal to gain a new "triaL "Never in my 24 years of prac~ · ' Plean ...
