Gasoline futures also ended 'the week sharply higher, although end- of-the-week profit-taking resulted in a slight one-day decline. In other conunodity markets, copper futures rose sharply and soybeans sank. The rally in crude was underpinned by concerns that a strike by private-sector workers in Norway will hamper oil output and significantly shrink exports from a leading world producer. But market-watchers said the major impetus was continuing fear that gasoline refiners won't be able to meet demand as motorists take to the roads for summer vacation in coming weeks. "People a.re worried about extremely tight supplies going into the driving season;• said Phil Flynn, senior energy market analyst for Alaron Trading Corp. in Chicago. "The real story thls week has been the gasoline market. Tight supplies are really driving the market. The most impressive thing today was it didn't sell off harder after the dramatic runup it's had;' he said, referring to a surge highlighted by a 6 percent price increase on Tuesday. Light sweet crude for June delivery rose 31 cents to $27.29 a barrel; June unleaded gasoline fell .53 cent to 90.35 cents a gallon; June heating oil fell .89 cent . to 67.31 cents a gallon; June natural gas fell 8.2 cents to $3.025 per 1,000 cubic feet. · In London, June Brent crude from the North Sea rose 14 cents to $25.29 a barrel on the International Petroleum Exchange. On the Comex division of the New York Mere, concern · over dwindling world copper supplies ignited a technical rally that sent copper to a 10-week high. Government data showing U.S. unemployment falling to . a 30year low underpinned the surge, as a vibrant economy means continued strong demand for copper materials used in the construction industry. Analysts also said buyers saw copper's lagging price as a good buying opportunity. July copper settled up 2.10 cents at 84.05 cents a pound after reachlng as hlgh as 84.30 cents.

WASHINGTON -The government announced new air bag standards Friday that seek to improve protection of children and small adults. Critics contend larger adults who don't wear seat belts could be put at greater risk. The new rule overhauls the government's standards for air bags, which to date are credited with saving more than 5,000 lives and blamed for at least 158 deaths. Under the new standards, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration will require air bags .to protect vehicle occupants in a 25 mph crash test~ the level supported by automaken, rather than a test at 30 mph favored by some consumer advocates. The 25 mph standard will be phased in over three years, starting with 2004 model year vehicles.

That disparity remains. For example, in the atnuent suburb of Dublin a 2-mi.ll levy raises more than $3.5 nu'llion, or $316 per student. But in the poorer Meigs Local District~in southeast Ohio, the same 2-mill assessment on properry generates less than $250,000, or $110 per stud~nt. In addition, the court had told the lawmakers to revamp the state's basic aid formula ; which determjnes how much operating money goes to schools from the state's main budget. The Legislature arbitrarily decided how much to allocate for education, the court ruled. Now the state's formula is based on an average from districts deemed to provide a good educ~­ tion. The state says allotment will climb to $4,294 per student next . year, up from $3,500 in 1997. Still, the newspaper found that the percentage of the state budget going to education has gone up ·oniy slighdy in the past decade. The court had said the state must stop forcing school districts to borrow money to keep open Enna Jean RifHe SYRACUSE - Erma Jean Fitlle, 65, Syracuse, died Thursday, May 4, 2000 in S~nley Memorial Hospital, Albemarle, N.C.

That disparity remains. For example, in the atnuent suburb of Dublin a 2-mi.ll levy raises more than $3.5 nu'llion, or $316 per student. But in the poorer Meigs Local District~in southeast Ohio, the same 2-mill assessment on properry generates less than $250,000, or $110 per stud~nt. In addition, the court had told the lawmakers to revamp the state's basic aid formula ; which determjnes how much operating money goes to schools from the state's main budget. The Legislature arbitrarily decided how much to allocate for education, the court ruled. Now the state's formula is based on an average from districts deemed to provide a good educ~­ tion. The state says allotment will climb to $4,294 per student next . year, up from $3,500 in 1997. Still, the newspaper found that the percentage of the state budget going to education has gone up ·oniy slighdy in the past decade. The court had said the state must stop forcing school districts to borrow money to keep open Enna Jean RifHe SYRACUSE - Erma Jean Fitlle, 65, Syracuse, died Thursday, May 4, 2000 in S~nley Memorial Hospital, Albemarle, N.C.

' Parents of children with disabilities typically worry about finding money to take care of the additional expenses resulting from the disabiliry. The Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) programs can do much to lessen this concern. The Social Security program pays benefits to '· the children of retired or disabled people receiv. ing Social Security benefits. Benefits also can 'be paid to children of workers who died. Children under age 18, or to age 19 if full-time elementary or secondary school students, may be eligi. ble for benefits. Under Social Security, a child age 18 or over may receive benefits if he or she is disabled and the disability began in childhood-before the age of 22. For example, suppose Joe James, who · has a 40-year-old developmentally disabled son living with him, is planning to retire. Joe's son ' may be able to collect benefits when Joe retires ' and if Joe died or became disabled, too. The SSI program, also run by Social Security, js somewhat different from Social Securiry. It · pays monthly benefits to people of any age with ' disabilities who have limited income and ·' resources. A disabled child under 18' who has no, ' or limited income and resources and lives with . his/her parents may quality for .SSI if the parenu' " income and resouti:es are also limited. However, ' once a child turns 18, the parent's income and , resources no Ionger count. • . Sometimes children with disabilities who live · in institutions could leave and live outside the institution if they had an ipcome. Often, that " needed income could come. in the form of SSI. ••• Questions and Answers I'm a 65-year-old widow and I receive Social Security benefits on my deceased husband's Social Security record. I'm thinking about remarrying but I'm afraid my benefits will stop. Would my benefits be affected in any way if I remarry? Your benefits won't be affected if you remarry since you are older than 60. (The remarriage of a widow(er) age 60 or older does not affect benefit continuation.) If you do remarry, you should call Social Security's toll-free number, 1800-772-1213, to see if you could get a higher benefit on your new spouse's work record. When should I start planning my retirement? Its never too early to start planning your retirement. Social Security has an important tool to help you with. your retirement planning. Workers who pay into Social Security will receive a Sociol Security Statement every year. This Statement is intended to help you plan yo,u r financi.al future by providing estimates of the monthly Social Security retirement, disability and survivors benefits you and your family could be eligible to receive 'n ow and in the future. If you are near retirement age (age 62 and older) and are considering retirement, contact your local Social Security office to discuss your retirement options, or call 1-800-772-1213 to speak to a Social Security representative who will answer your questions.

' · Complacency, which is the root sin of a dozen others, is as great a potential threat to the economy as inflation. Maybe more so, since it defies measurement as it infiltrates the economy's guts. When detected, it is ofien too late to rectify. As when a buyer goes elsewhere because he or she isn't receiving the quality service received in the past. Or when a customer's complaint is un~nswered. Such thing; happen when times are good, and looking good for months or yea1;5 into the future. When earnings and reyenues tise almost automatically, jobs are plentiful, wages good, stocks strong. The feeling is bolstered by belief in a new era that will shower·benefits unknown before, and by a sense that what needs to be done can be postponed until tomorrow, when it will take care of itself ' If you look hard, you can see it i~ the way people spend, and in the way they don't save.

In the immediate postwar years, American automakers had tile huge U.S. market almost to themselves, European makers had only a tiny part of the market, and early Japanese imports were scorned. .

' Parents of children with disabilities typically worry about finding money to take care of the additional expenses resulting from the disabiliry. The Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) programs can do much to lessen this concern. The Social Security program pays benefits to '· the children of retired or disabled people receiv. ing Social Security benefits. Benefits also can 'be paid to children of workers who died. Children under age 18, or to age 19 if full-time elementary or secondary school students, may be eligi. ble for benefits. Under Social Security, a child age 18 or over may receive benefits if he or she is disabled and the disability began in childhood-before the age of 22. For example, suppose Joe James, who · has a 40-year-old developmentally disabled son living with him, is planning to retire. Joe's son ' may be able to collect benefits when Joe retires ' and if Joe died or became disabled, too. The SSI program, also run by Social Security, js somewhat different from Social Securiry. It · pays monthly benefits to people of any age with ' disabilities who have limited income and ·' resources. A disabled child under 18' who has no, ' or limited income and resources and lives with . his/her parents may quality for .SSI if the parenu' " income and resouti:es are also limited. However, ' once a child turns 18, the parent's income and , resources no Ionger count. • . Sometimes children with disabilities who live · in institutions could leave and live outside the institution if they had an ipcome. Often, that " needed income could come. in the form of SSI. ••• Questions and Answers I'm a 65-year-old widow and I receive Social Security benefits on my deceased husband's Social Security record. I'm thinking about remarrying but I'm afraid my benefits will stop. Would my benefits be affected in any way if I remarry? Your benefits won't be affected if you remarry since you are older than 60. (The remarriage of a widow(er) age 60 or older does not affect benefit continuation.) If you do remarry, you should call Social Security's toll-free number, 1800-772-1213, to see if you could get a higher benefit on your new spouse's work record. When should I start planning my retirement? Its never too early to start planning your retirement. Social Security has an important tool to help you with. your retirement planning. Workers who pay into Social Security will receive a Sociol Security Statement every year. This Statement is intended to help you plan yo,u r financi.al future by providing estimates of the monthly Social Security retirement, disability and survivors benefits you and your family could be eligible to receive 'n ow and in the future. If you are near retirement age (age 62 and older) and are considering retirement, contact your local Social Security office to discuss your retirement options, or call 1-800-772-1213 to speak to a Social Security representative who will answer your questions.

' · Complacency, which is the root sin of a dozen others, is as great a potential threat to the economy as inflation. Maybe more so, since it defies measurement as it infiltrates the economy's guts. When detected, it is ofien too late to rectify. As when a buyer goes elsewhere because he or she isn't receiving the quality service received in the past. Or when a customer's complaint is un~nswered. Such thing; happen when times are good, and looking good for months or yea1;5 into the future. When earnings and reyenues tise almost automatically, jobs are plentiful, wages good, stocks strong. The feeling is bolstered by belief in a new era that will shower·benefits unknown before, and by a sense that what needs to be done can be postponed until tomorrow, when it will take care of itself ' If you look hard, you can see it i~ the way people spend, and in the way they don't save.

In the immediate postwar years, American automakers had tile huge U.S. market almost to themselves, European makers had only a tiny part of the market, and early Japanese imports were scorned. .

Let no man bqast himself thai he has got through the perils of winter lill at least the seventh of May." So, in England at least, winter is finally over.

West's debalable overcall marks him with most of the missing high ca.rds. If you win with -~ dummy's diamond queen and · ~ continue with the ace and anoth_er spade, you can make lhe contract, squeezing West in hearts, diamonds and clubs. ·aut you must read the position . Rigal found the best line: win· ning trick one with his "diamond ace, then leading a heart toward the.dummy. If West had won wilh · the ace, Rigal would have taken at least nine tricks via one spade, five hearts, one diamond and two clubs. So, West ducked his ace. After winning with dummy's heart queen, Riga I continued with the ace and another spade. Now West had to concede a ninth trick in one of the other suit$. And even WHAT A TMOU6~fFUL if West could have exited safely in 6UEST..A BOTTLE spades, Riga! would have led a OF ROOT BEER' diamond toward dummy's queen for his ninth trick. BANKRUPTCY / -~· ........

Let no man bqast himself thai he has got through the perils of winter lill at least the seventh of May." So, in England at least, winter is finally over.

West's debalable overcall marks him with most of the missing high ca.rds. If you win with -~ dummy's diamond queen and · ~ continue with the ace and anoth_er spade, you can make lhe contract, squeezing West in hearts, diamonds and clubs. ·aut you must read the position . Rigal found the best line: win· ning trick one with his "diamond ace, then leading a heart toward the.dummy. If West had won wilh · the ace, Rigal would have taken at least nine tricks via one spade, five hearts, one diamond and two clubs. So, West ducked his ace. After winning with dummy's heart queen, Riga I continued with the ace and another spade. Now West had to concede a ninth trick in one of the other suit$. And even WHAT A TMOU6~fFUL if West could have exited safely in 6UEST..A BOTTLE spades, Riga! would have led a OF ROOT BEER' diamond toward dummy's queen for his ninth trick. BANKRUPTCY / -~· ........

Police Chief Bruce Swift met with council to discuss the need for the new guns and prices, noting that the village's insurance carrier has, in the past, suggested that standard-issue weapons be purchased for officers. Now, office" irt the department provide their own weapons, resulting in an inconsistency which could result in serioils problems for officers on the job, and an increased liability risk, Swift said. Swift said that officers carry 9millimeter handguns, while oth~rs carry .40 caliber or .45 caliber gons. Not . only does the variance in handguns result in increased liability. but increases the cost to the village in the provision of magazine pouches, holsters, repairs and ammunition, which the village supplies. Swift said that, in the event that officers are in a situation involving gunfire, officers could experience problems if they are using different types of handguns. Through a special offer from a handgun dealer, Vance's Police Supply, Swift, said. l!e could purchase nin~; Sig Sauer .40-caliber handguns for a total cost of$4,237 - · approxim~tely half the usual retail price. · That price . includes weapons, holsters, magazines and pouches, trigger locks and a cleaning kit. .

POMEROY - Meigs County Commissioners will wait another week before pursuing a declaratory judgment suit in Common Pleas Court to resolve a dispute over vacation and sick leave compensation for county highway department administrators. Commissioners met with County Engineer Robert Eason, Prosecuting Attorney John Lentes, County Auditor Nancy Parker Campbell and County Treasurer Howard Frank in executive session during their regular meeting on Monday afternoon. After the session, Eason announced that he would rescind his March request for a $95,000 transfer of funds from the bituminous materials line item to the line item for administrative ,salaries. Highway Superintendent Manning Roush and Administrative Assistant David Spencer have announced their plans to retire at the end · of Eason's term in December. They are expected to request a combined ·total of $160,000 in salaries and unpaid vacation and sick leave time for the year. Under a policy adopted by Eason earlier this year, Roush and Spencer are entided to a cash payment for vacation and sick leave. Commissioners have estimated that payment to Roush for his annual salary and vacation and accumulated sick leave will total $65,000, and Spencer's, $95,000. A week ago, commissioners met with Lentes and decided to proceed with the filing of a declaratory judgment from Common Pleas Court, to determine how much autonomy elected officeholders have in determining how much vacation and sick leave that employees may carry over, and receive cash payment for. Commissioners said they will wait until after their meeting on Monday to decide if the declaratory judgment will be sought from Judge Fred W Crow Ill, to allow Eason to meet with his employees to discuss the policies. Commissioners' primary concern, according to Lentes, is that if the request is tabled until the end of the year, the general fund could be saddled with the cash payment at a time when it can least afford it. If, indeed, the policies remain in place and the payments are due to Roush and Spencer, the funds could affect the budget of Engineer-elect Eugene Triplett, Lentes said. In other business, commissioners accepted a number of bids for bituminous, asphalt and aggregate materials, upon Eason's request, for the summer. paving season. The bids were opened by the commissioners. two weeks ago, Eason was authorized to proceed with a public auction for the sale of excess equipment no longer needed by the department.

In efforts to make this summer as safe as possible, OOPS has issued the following pointers for bikers: · ·Motorcycles are harder to se·e and it is harder to judge hllW fast they're going. . • Motorists shouldn't follow a motorcycle too closely. A driver should . always maintain at least a two-second following distance. If the weather is bad, or it's dark outside, the following distance should be increased to four seconds. • Drivers should be especially cautious at intersections, since it's the location where most crashes happen. While it is important for vehicle drivers to be cautious and share the road, it is just as important foi: the motorcyclists to do so as well. The Motorcycle Ohio program offers classes each April through October that teach both exp.erienced and inexperi. enced motorcyclists the rules of the toad. Classes also show the riders how to be.more aware of their surroundings. PI••• Ill Safety, ,... AJ i Sentinel 2 SldloM..;., 12 , . . Calendar Cgaeifieds Comic• fditoriala Obituari•• AS . B2:4 B5 M.
