Bob Taft signed a bill Friday that bans certain late-term abortions and sets penalties for doctors who perform them. It's the second time the state has tried to outlaw the procedure. The Legislature in March overwhelmingly approved the bill, which creates the crime of" partial birth feticide:' .• Viobtors could be sentenced to eight years i;\ prison and face $15,000 in fines, The procedure, known medically as dilation and extraction, is done • in the last three months of a pregnancy. A doctor. dr\rins the skull of a ferus before the ferus is fully delivered. , Opponents refer to the procedure as partiaj-birth abortion. Lawmakers passed the bill only weeks before the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on whether a similar ban in Nebt:15ka is constitutional. A Court ruling is expected by July. The supporters of Ohio's bill, sponsored by Rep. Jerome Luebbers, P-Cincinnati, say they drafted it as narrowly as possible in order to 1 withstand constitutional challenges. 11 The legislation is careful to describe only the procedure, .which invol~ intentionally causing at least half of the ferus to emerge before aborting it, usually by draining the cranial contents, pn;lponents say. . 1992 and 1996, and the state health department last July confirmed nine cases among River Valley High graduates. No cause has been found . Contamination was found below the soil , and some atWetic fields were abandoned and fenced off two years ago. Authorities say they still believe the site - other than the six acres of fenced-off areas - is safe for students and school staff The schools' relocation depends on congressional action, voter approval of a $19.6 million bond levy and agreement by the River Valley Board of Education. The board not only wants to move the schools but also build two new elementary schools at a total cost of $43 million. A news conference about the proposed move drew concerned parents as well as the media. . Robin Millard, 50, said her 27year-old daughter, Stephanie, was diagnosed with breast can~er three years ago. ''I've got a grandson I was supposed to be watching today, but 1 wouldn't bring him onto campus for one hour;' Millard said.

The Army Corps of Engineers, River Valley Local Schools and the state agreed in principle to move the high school and middle school and develop their current property for industrial use.

Bob Taft signed a bill Friday that bans certain late-term abortions and sets penalties for doctors who perform them. It's the second time the state has tried to outlaw the procedure. The Legislature in March overwhelmingly approved the bill, which creates the crime of" partial birth feticide:' .• Viobtors could be sentenced to eight years i;\ prison and face $15,000 in fines, The procedure, known medically as dilation and extraction, is done • in the last three months of a pregnancy. A doctor. dr\rins the skull of a ferus before the ferus is fully delivered. , Opponents refer to the procedure as partiaj-birth abortion. Lawmakers passed the bill only weeks before the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on whether a similar ban in Nebt:15ka is constitutional. A Court ruling is expected by July. The supporters of Ohio's bill, sponsored by Rep. Jerome Luebbers, P-Cincinnati, say they drafted it as narrowly as possible in order to 1 withstand constitutional challenges. 11 The legislation is careful to describe only the procedure, .which invol~ intentionally causing at least half of the ferus to emerge before aborting it, usually by draining the cranial contents, pn;lponents say. . 1992 and 1996, and the state health department last July confirmed nine cases among River Valley High graduates. No cause has been found . Contamination was found below the soil , and some atWetic fields were abandoned and fenced off two years ago. Authorities say they still believe the site - other than the six acres of fenced-off areas - is safe for students and school staff The schools' relocation depends on congressional action, voter approval of a $19.6 million bond levy and agreement by the River Valley Board of Education. The board not only wants to move the schools but also build two new elementary schools at a total cost of $43 million. A news conference about the proposed move drew concerned parents as well as the media. . Robin Millard, 50, said her 27year-old daughter, Stephanie, was diagnosed with breast can~er three years ago.

WVa. (AP) - A former State Police trooper will remain free on bond until he is sentenced for his convictioif in federal court on a criminal civil rights charge that stemmed from the beating of a Welch man. Gary Messenger II will be sentenced Aug. 21 but will 'not have to surrender before ~en, U.S. District Judge David Faber ruled Friday. A jury Friday returned a guilty verdict on one of two charges. Messenger faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. He was cleated of a second charge of obstruction but still faces charges in state court. Messenger resigned Oct. 18 after the start of an internal investigation into the beating of Neal Rose, who was hospitalized for three days with fracruted ribs, bruised lungs and a 'rushed thumb following the Oct. 9 beating. Messenger testified that the beating was necessary to subdue and arrest Rose.The incidens another officer in which Messenger said he persuaded N eal Rose not to complain. The 20-minute recording included initial calls from Rose and othJs complaining about shots being fired in downtown Welch.Trial testimony indicated the shots were fi red by exTrooper Robert Hinzman, who was fired after an investigation. Rose 's mood during repeated calls to 911 went from pleasant to pleading to frantic · as troopers kicked down his apartment door. During closing arguments earlier Friday, Assistant U.S. Attorney Karen Bleattler told the jury: "You need only two words to convict this defendant: Press play." Lawyers for Messenger insisted the case was not as simple as prosecutors tried to make it sound. "An issue in this case is credibility, whether you believe Gary Messenger or Neal Rose;' defense attorney Ken Chittum said. 1 Dear Editor: Each Memorial Day and Veterans Day we take a tew moments to remember the service and sacrifice of America's veterans. These ·men · 'and women who answered their country's call to duty have earned much more than just those days of homage. But the harsh reality is that this nation's public- policy towards veterans is little more than empty words and broken promises. For many of our elected officials in Washington, progra1115 established by a grateful nation to care for the brave men and women who bear the deepest wounds and scars of war are no longer a national priority. Federal spending for veteran's health care has not kept pace with the rising cost of care, even though the veteran population is shrinking. True, we are losing 1,000 World War II veterans each day, but thei~ C9!flrades are living longer, putting an even greater strain on the Department ofVeterans Affairs 0/A) medical system. Many sick and disabled veterans must wait months for an appointment to see a medical specialist. The more than 1,160,500 veterans of Ohio should be outraged that the federal goverrunent has failed to provide adequate funding for veterans health care. These shorrfalls have meant local VA hospitals have had to cut services and lay off health care workers.These cuts seriously threaten the qualicy and ava~ability of health care for Ohio veterans. The only way to e11d the crisis in veterans health care is fur every one of us - veterans and non-veterans alike - to write or call our U.S. senators and representatives in Washington today.Tell them to do what's right and support adequate federal funding for veterans programs.

' Good, ba4 news.. for Constitution watchers Last Monday's eruption at the Supreme Court produced both good news and bad news for Constirution watchers. The choice depends upon your point of view. In deciding the case of Antonio J. Morrison, the high court tackled constirutional questions as old as the Republic itself. Fiye members, led by ChiefJustice William Rehnquist, sruck faithfully by old doctrines of strict construction. Four members, speaking through Justice David · Souter, reaffirmed their faith in expansive national power. In the process, the juriSts gave redoubled meaning to the coming presidential election. The good news, for those of us who favor limitations upon federal authority, is that the Lopez case· of 1995 S\Jrvives. The bad news is that Lopez surviyes on life support. In lopez, the court voted 5-4 that the Gun-Free School Zones Act violates the Constirution's com~ merce clause. On Monday, the same five justices agreed that the federal Violence Against Women Act also exceeds the powers of Congress. The facts in the case had nothing !0 do with the outGome. Forthe record: In 1994,Morrison was a student and varsity football player at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. A woman charged that he raped her in a dormitory room.Virginia Tech's Judicial Committee found him guilty as charged, but university officials set aside the corM'ction. A state grand jury failed to indict, and the plaintiff filed a civil suit against Morrison and VPI under VAWA. Lower court! held the act unconstitutional. Monday's Supreme Court opinion affirmed that judgment. The division on the court now amounts to a judicial chasm. R ehnquist and his colleagues James). ~patrick UPS COLUMNIST (O'Connor, Scalia, Kennedy and Thomas) recur to fundamentals: "Every law enacted by Congress must be based on one or more of its powers enumerated in the Comtitution." Reaffirming the Lopez decision on firearlll5, Rehnquist bore down on the key word: COMMERCE. The mere possession of a firearm on school property had not)ring to do with "commerce" or. any sort of economic enterprise. True; the gun possessed by youn~ Alfonzo Lopez had moved in interstate commerce, but that alone was not enough to establish a "substantial" impact on commerce among the states. Besides, Congress had failed-to provide a record · in support of its presumed authority. In one sense, said Rehnquist, "any conduct in this interdependent world of 01,1rs has ~ ultimate commercial origin of consequence. 'But a substantialrelationship between conduct and commerce must be established by convincing legislative findings. In the Lopez case, the findings were skilnpy. In the Morrison cak, the findings were voluminous, but they relied'upon a theory of aggregation that the }jigh court was • unwilling to swallow. The aggregation theory, as applied to VAWA, . is to this effect: One rape may ·not be enough to. establish a substantial nexus between conduct and commerce, but thousands of cases of sexual abuse add up to a significant impact. In Con- . gress, the House asserted that gender-motivatell.. . violence deters women from "engaging in employment in .interstate commerce" and "diminishes national productivity.'' .. The congressional findings are a gassy mlx o( . conj ecture, speculation and surmise. They are. " the kind of finding; churned up by educated economim who majored in hypothetical . extrapolation. The theory of aggregation dates- · from a 1942 case Involving an Ohio farmer · who raised a few bushels of wheat for home consumption. I thought that case was wrongly . · decided, but at leaSt wheat has some connection to interstate commerce. Rape has none. • . Justice Souter, joined by Justices Stevens, · . Breyer and Ginsburg, scorns the old doctrine of· limited and enumerated powers. He can hardly : wait to nullify the Lopez and Morrison deci; sions. He doubts that the majo,iity's view will · · prove to be enduring law. . We will see. In a separate dissenting opinion', : Justice B~er mildly defended federalist princi• · : pies. He hoped that the court would fashion ' · some rules that courts could 1,1se "to impos~ · · some meaningful limit, but not too great a limit.'' upon the scope of the commerce clause.

Woman changes testimony from 1993 Rainbow trial SUTTON, WVa. (AP) - A man accused of killing two hitchhikers 20 years ago threatened the toddler son of another woman when he ordered her not to talk about the case, the woman testified Friday. "He got down on the floor at my feet and laid his arnt across my knees and told me blundy and coldly I was not to say anything at all. I was to keep my mouth shut.'' Betty Lee Pritt testified. "He said Stevie would be easy to take to his farm to ride ponies and then disappear.'' Pritt said. Stevie was then 3. Jacob Beard specifically mentioned the double-murder, Pritt said. Pritt had a relationship with Richard Fowler, who at one time was a co-defendant of Beard. Pritt previously has told police she did not know anything about the crimes. "1 was afraid to say everything I wanted to back then because I didn't know if Jake would be free to hunt us dovirn.'' she said. , . • •• Beard, 53, formerly of Hillsboro, is being ·tried a second time in the June 25, 1980, shooting; of Nancy Santomero, 19, of Huntington, N.Y., and Vicki Durian, 26, of Wellman, Iowa. The two women were hitchhiking to a Rainbow Family gathering in the Monongahela National Forest in Pocahontas County when they disappeared. Their bodi~s were discovered on Briery Knob about seven . miles from Droop Mountain Battlefield State Park. Bill Scott of Greenbank testified he saw Beard at the park between 3:30 p.rrl. and 4 p.m. the day of the shootings., Scott is the second person to place Beard atthe park that day. A woman has testified to seeing Beard talking to several men at the park entrance around 5 p.m. · Beard's whereabouts on the day of the shooting is a key element to the prosecution's case. Former state Medical Examiner Irvin Sopher testified this week the women were probably killed between 4 p.m and 7 p.m. Another witness, Dale Morrison available later i~ the trial.

WVa. (AP) - A former State Police trooper will remain free on bond until he is sentenced for his convictioif in federal court on a criminal civil rights charge that stemmed from the beating of a Welch man. Gary Messenger II will be sentenced Aug. 21 but will 'not have to surrender before ~en, U.S. District Judge David Faber ruled Friday. A jury Friday returned a guilty verdict on one of two charges. Messenger faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. He was cleated of a second charge of obstruction but still faces charges in state court. Messenger resigned Oct. 18 after the start of an internal investigation into the beating of Neal Rose, who was hospitalized for three days with fracruted ribs, bruised lungs and a 'rushed thumb following the Oct. 9 beating. Messenger testified that the beating was necessary to subdue and arrest Rose.The incidens another officer in which Messenger said he persuaded N eal Rose not to complain. The 20-minute recording included initial calls from Rose and othJs complaining about shots being fired in downtown Welch.Trial testimony indicated the shots were fi red by exTrooper Robert Hinzman, who was fired after an investigation. Rose 's mood during repeated calls to 911 went from pleasant to pleading to frantic · as troopers kicked down his apartment door. During closing arguments earlier Friday, Assistant U.S. Attorney Karen Bleattler told the jury: "You need only two words to convict this defendant: Press play." Lawyers for Messenger insisted the case was not as simple as prosecutors tried to make it sound. "An issue in this case is credibility, whether you believe Gary Messenger or Neal Rose;' defense attorney Ken Chittum said. 1 Dear Editor: Each Memorial Day and Veterans Day we take a tew moments to remember the service and sacrifice of America's veterans. These ·men · 'and women who answered their country's call to duty have earned much more than just those days of homage. But the harsh reality is that this nation's public- policy towards veterans is little more than empty words and broken promises. For many of our elected officials in Washington, progra1115 established by a grateful nation to care for the brave men and women who bear the deepest wounds and scars of war are no longer a national priority. Federal spending for veteran's health care has not kept pace with the rising cost of care, even though the veteran population is shrinking. True, we are losing 1,000 World War II veterans each day, but thei~ C9!flrades are living longer, putting an even greater strain on the Department ofVeterans Affairs 0/A) medical system. Many sick and disabled veterans must wait months for an appointment to see a medical specialist. The more than 1,160,500 veterans of Ohio should be outraged that the federal goverrunent has failed to provide adequate funding for veterans health care. These shorrfalls have meant local VA hospitals have had to cut services and lay off health care workers.These cuts seriously threaten the qualicy and ava~ability of health care for Ohio veterans. The only way to e11d the crisis in veterans health care is fur every one of us - veterans and non-veterans alike - to write or call our U.S. senators and representatives in Washington today.Tell them to do what's right and support adequate federal funding for veterans programs.

' Good, ba4 news.. for Constitution watchers Last Monday's eruption at the Supreme Court produced both good news and bad news for Constirution watchers. The choice depends upon your point of view. In deciding the case of Antonio J. Morrison, the high court tackled constirutional questions as old as the Republic itself. Fiye members, led by ChiefJustice William Rehnquist, sruck faithfully by old doctrines of strict construction. Four members, speaking through Justice David · Souter, reaffirmed their faith in expansive national power. In the process, the juriSts gave redoubled meaning to the coming presidential election. The good news, for those of us who favor limitations upon federal authority, is that the Lopez case· of 1995 S\Jrvives. The bad news is that Lopez surviyes on life support. In lopez, the court voted 5-4 that the Gun-Free School Zones Act violates the Constirution's com~ merce clause. On Monday, the same five justices agreed that the federal Violence Against Women Act also exceeds the powers of Congress. The facts in the case had nothing !0 do with the outGome. Forthe record: In 1994,Morrison was a student and varsity football player at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. A woman charged that he raped her in a dormitory room.Virginia Tech's Judicial Committee found him guilty as charged, but university officials set aside the corM'ction. A state grand jury failed to indict, and the plaintiff filed a civil suit against Morrison and VPI under VAWA. Lower court! held the act unconstitutional. Monday's Supreme Court opinion affirmed that judgment. The division on the court now amounts to a judicial chasm. R ehnquist and his colleagues James). ~patrick UPS COLUMNIST (O'Connor, Scalia, Kennedy and Thomas) recur to fundamentals: "Every law enacted by Congress must be based on one or more of its powers enumerated in the Comtitution." Reaffirming the Lopez decision on firearlll5, Rehnquist bore down on the key word: COMMERCE. The mere possession of a firearm on school property had not)ring to do with "commerce" or. any sort of economic enterprise. True; the gun possessed by youn~ Alfonzo Lopez had moved in interstate commerce, but that alone was not enough to establish a "substantial" impact on commerce among the states. Besides, Congress had failed-to provide a record · in support of its presumed authority. In one sense, said Rehnquist, "any conduct in this interdependent world of 01,1rs has ~ ultimate commercial origin of consequence. 'But a substantialrelationship between conduct and commerce must be established by convincing legislative findings. In the Lopez case, the findings were skilnpy. In the Morrison cak, the findings were voluminous, but they relied'upon a theory of aggregation that the }jigh court was • unwilling to swallow. The aggregation theory, as applied to VAWA, . is to this effect: One rape may ·not be enough to. establish a substantial nexus between conduct and commerce, but thousands of cases of sexual abuse add up to a significant impact. In Con- . gress, the House asserted that gender-motivatell.. . violence deters women from "engaging in employment in .interstate commerce" and "diminishes national productivity.'' .. The congressional findings are a gassy mlx o( . conj ecture, speculation and surmise. They are. " the kind of finding; churned up by educated economim who majored in hypothetical . extrapolation. The theory of aggregation dates- · from a 1942 case Involving an Ohio farmer · who raised a few bushels of wheat for home consumption. I thought that case was wrongly . · decided, but at leaSt wheat has some connection to interstate commerce. Rape has none. • . Justice Souter, joined by Justices Stevens, · . Breyer and Ginsburg, scorns the old doctrine of· limited and enumerated powers. He can hardly : wait to nullify the Lopez and Morrison deci; sions. He doubts that the majo,iity's view will · · prove to be enduring law. . We will see. In a separate dissenting opinion', : Justice B~er mildly defended federalist princi• · : pies. He hoped that the court would fashion ' · some rules that courts could 1,1se "to impos~ · · some meaningful limit, but not too great a limit.'' upon the scope of the commerce clause.

Woman changes testimony from 1993 Rainbow trial SUTTON, WVa. (AP) - A man accused of killing two hitchhikers 20 years ago threatened the toddler son of another woman when he ordered her not to talk about the case, the woman testified Friday. "He got down on the floor at my feet and laid his arnt across my knees and told me blundy and coldly I was not to say anything at all. I was to keep my mouth shut.'' Betty Lee Pritt testified. "He said Stevie would be easy to take to his farm to ride ponies and then disappear.'' Pritt said. Stevie was then 3. Jacob Beard specifically mentioned the double-murder, Pritt said. Pritt had a relationship with Richard Fowler, who at one time was a co-defendant of Beard. Pritt previously has told police she did not know anything about the crimes. "1 was afraid to say everything I wanted to back then because I didn't know if Jake would be free to hunt us dovirn.'' she said. , . • •• Beard, 53, formerly of Hillsboro, is being ·tried a second time in the June 25, 1980, shooting; of Nancy Santomero, 19, of Huntington, N.Y., and Vicki Durian, 26, of Wellman, Iowa. The two women were hitchhiking to a Rainbow Family gathering in the Monongahela National Forest in Pocahontas County when they disappeared. Their bodi~s were discovered on Briery Knob about seven . miles from Droop Mountain Battlefield State Park. Bill Scott of Greenbank testified he saw Beard at the park between 3:30 p.rrl. and 4 p.m. the day of the shootings., Scott is the second person to place Beard atthe park that day. A woman has testified to seeing Beard talking to several men at the park entrance around 5 p.m. · Beard's whereabouts on the day of the shooting is a key element to the prosecution's case. Former state Medical Examiner Irvin Sopher testified this week the women were probably killed between 4 p.m and 7 p.m. Another witness, Dale Morrison available later i~ the trial.

Tile electric industry still favors coal as a means of both heating and cooling - . and at com• paratively cheaper prices. Coal's place at the discussion table will ; always be filled and i~ advocates will be heard. Being an election year, action on creating an energy agenda won't : 'be forthcoming, perhaps even after we inaugurate a new president • next January. . .: But in meeting a basic need for our citizens, it can't be left on the ' shelf forever.

A f ter all, it was difficult to explain or understand that this intense media hype was simply over the fact that a c6ach at a Midwestern state university migh t Iose his job. • No. peop Ie did not gather to hear Delray Brooks, former coach of the Unive rsity of Texas- Pan • American • plead no contest to stealing $25,000 from the scho<¥. Many members of the media forgot that Broom played on Rick Pitino 's Providence team that went to the final four in 1987. Brooks was just a blurb in the legal file of the sports section. The media had a bigger fish than Brooks to fry. The media helped to make Bob Knight so now then wanted to be t here when he was reeled in for the kill.

President Myles Brand of Indiana ·has said Knight must not embarrass the university at his press con~er" ences. Now the media can attempt to irritate him during these sessions without fear of retribution . After all, an outburst could result in Knight 's dismissal. The media always resented that Knight had no respect tor them and I am so happy the media got what it wanted. Like Chaney said, "they · want this to continue." I really like Bob Hunter's comments t'n the Columbus D1'spatch on how Knt' ght and "''oody Hayes were actually dif!ierent . ..,, . He went to great length to assure the faithful that the media outside of Ohio was 'mistaken when they compared the two volatile coaches. Yes, Hunter, there is a Santa Claus. · Hunter's comments and justifica· fW d · t10ns o oo y are the same used l;>y Knight's supporters at Indiana over the past 29 years. I guess it's okay to assault a Mt'chigan State fan followt'ng a loss t'n East Lansing, tear up a st' delt' ne marker, or even slug a Clemson linebacker because Woody, like Knight, was good to his players. wood y wa~ a gent1eman an d Knight is a crass,t' ntt'mt'datt' ng ogre. In the end, Woody got along with the medi,a and Knight doesn't. Of course, we are to believe Hunter that a football coach tirom the 1950s and . '60s with a terrt' ble temper · would never a lay a hand o_n ht's players during a practice. · He might. assault other fans and players, but never his own. Sure, and K,night didn't chock Ne1') Reed or hit Ron Fellt' ng e1'ther1.. Three wee~ ago, the Indianapolis • • Star reprinted an article that tint appeared in the Detroit Free Press in the 1970s. If you substituted Knight's name' · · for Woody, you would have sworn it · was written that day. • The Woody apologists are part of the media hypocrisy. Twenty yean from now, Knight's. defenders will be sayittg that their hero was never as bad as the future · abusive coach will be, they'll be just as blindly loyal as Woody's defenders are today. After all, didn't Gen. George Patton · · slap a soldier and achieve glory dri~ · ving the Third Army across France? Coach Knight said playing basketball wasn't canasta . I have news for you, Bob, it's not Omaha Beach ·either! What will the media do when Knight is finally fired? I imagine Cincinnati's Bob Huggins was the happiest coach in America after hearing about Brand's decision to give Knight one more chance. He's probably next on the media hit · · li~ • He's volatile, confrontational and contentious, but he's not Knight. With Knight gone, Huggins will make a poor substitute, but they will have to find someone to fit the bill. : · : In the final analysis, Feinstein and >:; Hunter are right: Brand should have • , ; fired Knight. • .• Then we would have been done with Knight and this media mess. While many sportsman have been going crazy for wild turkey these past few weeks, perhapt even more are heading for the Ohio River in pursuit of hybrid striped bass 4nd sauger. ' Public fishing areas along the river, and particularly downstream of the Racine and Gallipolis dams, have been busy lately as area anglers try their luck with these popular gamefish. · Hybrid striped bass are a silver deep-bodied fish, similar to white bass. They are cr,ated by crossing a f~male striped !?ass with a male white bass - aod generally cannot , reproduce. , •· They often weigh between one and five pounds, but can grow up to 16 pounds, and are generally 12 to 22 inches long. · Hybrid stripers have stripes along their sides and back. These lines are distinct, usually broken, with several extending to the tail. Anglers are taking hybrids at the Racipe Locks and Dam by casting 4inch, pearl-colored rubber shad with a 3/8- to 1 / 2- ounce lead jig head. The trick lies in having enough weight so the lure ·will sink deep enough in the fast current to allow a slow retrieve, but not so heavy that it han~ up on the abundant snags. Call them what you will, hybrids, wipers, etc . there's little mistaking the sensations you fe el wheri one of these heavy-duty gamefish latches on ; add having to pull the fish upstream against a powerful current, and a fivepound fish suddenly feels twice as heavy on the end of your line If you go, plan to arrive early to secure a prime location ·along the walkway or the rocks adjoining · the dam (some people have been seen camping out) .

Most sauger ran ge from 9 to IS inches in length and are Je'ss than one pound. The state record weighs 7 pounds, 5 ounces and is 24.5 inches long. Many people believe the sauger, with its tender, white flesh , is the best- tasting gamefish . It seems th e sauger have been "putting on the bite" in the late afternoon and evenings. Anglers have been taking sauger with minnows or, more frequently, with 4-inch white or chartreuse curly tailed grubs with 1/ 4- to 3/8-0unce jig heads. Fish these slowly along the walkway and rocks below the dam. Again, bring plenty oflures because you are going to lose'a few.

A f ter all, it was difficult to explain or understand that this intense media hype was simply over the fact that a c6ach at a Midwestern state university migh t Iose his job. • No. peop Ie did not gather to hear Delray Brooks, former coach of the Unive rsity of Texas- Pan • American • plead no contest to stealing $25,000 from the scho<¥. Many members of the media forgot that Broom played on Rick Pitino 's Providence team that went to the final four in 1987. Brooks was just a blurb in the legal file of the sports section. The media had a bigger fish than Brooks to fry. The media helped to make Bob Knight so now then wanted to be t here when he was reeled in for the kill. Peop Ie are fiue d aII the time; however, when it involves Knight it becomes so noteworthy that it's even , h d I covere d m t e e itoria section of the New York Times. · liempIe coach John Chaney said it best: "After watching the news con~ •erence, you can tell by the media . h questtons t at they wanted this to . d d f!i contmue an wante a di erent outcome." · · . somebody had the guts to remove htm, · · h er Kmg · h t h'tmse If or the ett · · b ' IS · not t h e umvermy, ecause th1s end."

Th d ' · ·u b h e me 13 Wt ~ oping they will be there to witness the event, a push or a shove of a player or referee that will be enough to get Knight fitred. Who cares about the score or the players? The real ~tory will be in watching the Indiana sidelines. One tantrum could spell c;loom for the embattled coach 1 d '· h · won er somellmes ow many of these reporters could nam' e · the othet 10 coaches il) the Big Ten? The media is so happy o · n w. President Myles Brand of Indiana ·has said Knight must not embarrass the university at his press con~er" ences. Now the media can attempt to irritate him during these sessions without fear of retribution . After all, an outburst could result in Knight 's dismissal. The media always resented that Knight had no respect tor them and I am so happy the media got what it wanted. Like Chaney said, "they · want this to continue." I really like Bob Hunter's comments t'n the Columbus D1'spatch on how Knt' ght and "''oody Hayes were actually dif!ierent . ..,, . He went to great length to assure the faithful that the media outside of Ohio was 'mistaken when they compared the two volatile coaches. Yes, Hunter, there is a Santa Claus. · Hunter's comments and justifica· fW d · t10ns o oo y are the same used l;>y Knight's supporters at Indiana over the past 29 years. I guess it's okay to assault a Mt'chigan State fan followt'ng a loss t'n East Lansing, tear up a st' delt' ne marker, or even slug a Clemson linebacker because Woody, like Knight, was good to his players. wood y wa~ a gent1eman an d Knight is a crass,t' ntt'mt'datt' ng ogre. In the end, Woody got along with the medi,a and Knight doesn't. Of course, we are to believe Hunter that a football coach tirom the 1950s and . '60s with a terrt' ble temper · would never a lay a hand o_n ht's players during a practice. · He might. assault other fans and players, but never his own. Sure, and K,night didn't chock Ne1') Reed or hit Ron Fellt' ng e1'ther1.. Three wee~ ago, the Indianapolis • • Star reprinted an article that tint appeared in the Detroit Free Press in the 1970s. If you substituted Knight's name' · · for Woody, you would have sworn it · was written that day. • The Woody apologists are part of the media hypocrisy. Twenty yean from now, Knight's. defenders will be sayittg that their hero was never as bad as the future · abusive coach will be, they'll be just as blindly loyal as Woody's defenders are today. After all, didn't Gen. George Patton · · slap a soldier and achieve glory dri~ · ving the Third Army across France? Coach Knight said playing basketball wasn't canasta . I have news for you, Bob, it's not Omaha Beach ·either! What will the media do when Knight is finally fired? I imagine Cincinnati's Bob Huggins was the happiest coach in America after hearing about Brand's decision to give Knight one more chance. He's probably next on the media hit · · li~ • He's volatile, confrontational and contentious, but he's not Knight. With Knight gone, Huggins will make a poor substitute, but they will have to find someone to fit the bill. : · : In the final analysis, Feinstein and >:; Hunter are right: Brand should have • , ; fired Knight. • .• Then we would have been done with Knight and this media mess. While many sportsman have been going crazy for wild turkey these past few weeks, perhapt even more are heading for the Ohio River in pursuit of hybrid striped bass 4nd sauger. ' Public fishing areas along the river, and particularly downstream of the Racine and Gallipolis dams, have been busy lately as area anglers try their luck with these popular gamefish. · Hybrid striped bass are a silver deep-bodied fish, similar to white bass. They are cr,ated by crossing a f~male striped !?ass with a male white bass - aod generally cannot , reproduce. , •· They often weigh between one and five pounds, but can grow up to 16 pounds, and are generally 12 to 22 inches long. · Hybrid stripers have stripes along their sides and back. These lines are distinct, usually broken, with several extending to the tail. Anglers are taking hybrids at the Racipe Locks and Dam by casting 4inch, pearl-colored rubber shad with a 3/8- to 1 / 2- ounce lead jig head. The trick lies in having enough weight so the lure ·will sink deep enough in the fast current to allow a slow retrieve, but not so heavy that it han~ up on the abundant snags. Call them what you will, hybrids, wipers, etc . there's little mistaking the sensations you fe el wheri one of these heavy-duty gamefish latches on ; add having to pull the fish upstream against a powerful current, and a fivepound fish suddenly feels twice as heavy on the end of your line If you go, plan to arrive early to secure a prime location ·along the walkway or the rocks adjoining · the dam (some people have been seen camping out) .

Most sauger ran ge from 9 to IS inches in length and are Je'ss than one pound. The state record weighs 7 pounds, 5 ounces and is 24.5 inches long. Many people believe the sauger, with its tender, white flesh , is the best- tasting gamefish . It seems th e sauger have been "putting on the bite" in the late afternoon and evenings. Anglers have been taking sauger with minnows or, more frequently, with 4-inch white or chartreuse curly tailed grubs with 1/ 4- to 3/8-0unce jig heads. Fish these slowly along the walkway and rocks below the dam. Again, bring plenty oflures because you are going to lose'a few.

The following are some strategies from the May issue of New Choices: Living Even Bet~ · ter After 50. -Buy close to (but not in) a popular town . You can save considerable money by not demanding the most fashionable address . A good idea is to mark the attractions that interest you. Then draw a circle, using a 10- to 20mile radius from the place you've marked and look for homes within. that circle. -.Shop in the off-seasort. Once you know what kind of home you would like to buy, plan a trip to the area that interests you during the off-season. "The best time to look for • a home in a vacation area is at the end of the peak season," explains real estate agent Carolyn Janik . ''You may .see some owners · drop their prices at the end of the season, but you'll never see that at the beginning ." -Be prepared to show · ' em the money. Sellers love home buyers who pay cash. They can make the deal quickly becaus.e there is no need to spend time arranging for a mortgage.

A late May wedding is planned in Gateswood, Ala., after which · the couple will reside in Greer, South Carolina. Have you decided to buy a vaca!ion home? The following are some strategies from the May issue of New Choices: Living Even Bet~ · ter After 50. -Buy close to (but not in) a popular town . You can save considerable money by not demanding the most fashionable address . A good idea is to mark the attractions that interest you. Then draw a circle, using a 10- to 20mile radius from the place you've marked and look for homes within. that circle. -.Shop in the off-seasort. Once you know what kind of home you would like to buy, plan a trip to the area that interests you during the off-season. "The best time to look for • a home in a vacation area is at the end of the peak season," explains real estate agent Carolyn Janik . ''You may .see some owners · drop their prices at the end of the season, but you'll never see that at the beginning ." -Be prepared to show · ' em the money. Sellers love home buyers who pay cash. They can make the deal quickly becaus.e there is no need to spend time arranging for a mortgage.

I boarded your flight at Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines, and I, too, was on my way to Vietnam. You were seated in the bulkhead, and I was back several rows. I recognized you immediately from your picture in the paper. Somehow, I got ~p my nerve, and went to your section of the plane just to say hello. . You were very pleasant, and didn't make me feel as if I were intruding. I had my tape recorder in my hand, and asked if you wouldn't mind saying a few words to my wife. You said, "I'd be happy to:• You then recorded the words, "Your husb~nd is a very fine fellow -- and attractiye, too. Don't worry about him. He will be corning home to you soon." .

Robertson, Sa~ Antonio Dear William Robertson: Apparently, your unit was one of the luckier ones. No doubt you've counted your blessings King and Queen. "It was just great, because nothing like that has ever happened for me. I never thought I'd ever be named valentine queen," exclaimed Betty, who went on to tell about the roses she received and the commendation sent to her from Rep. John Carey of the Ohio House of Representatives. Betty was born in Middleport and at the age of 6 started school at the State School for the Blind in Columbus. She said at first someone in her family would take her there, but later she would either go on the bus or the train and someone from the school would meet her and other students at the station. She said she quit school in the lOth grade, something she always regretted, got married, and had two children, a son who lives in Middleport, and a daughter in Zanesville. She al.!o has several grandchildren. Betty has always been a devout Christian. While her membership is at the Rocksprings Methodist Church, she now attends Victory Baptist Church in Middleport with her special friend fiom The Maples. She recalls that Louise Radford once told her that "it doesn't matter where you go to chu~h. just so you•go:'' ' She·.faithfully reads her Braille Bible · and several dev!)tional booklets, including · the Upper Room and Guideposts. She enjoys listening to gospel music and socializing at the Senior Center. While change in lifestyle is often resisted, particularly by the elderly and handicapped, it many times comes with windows of opportunity. That's what Jletty has found in her move to The Maples. Taylor beams with pride when she talks about her grandson. · "I told him he would inherit my dolls one day;' Taylor said. "He told me he would have a big yard sale, but I reminded him I would come back to haunt him." many times. I received several letters from G.l .s who were al.!o on that flight. Here's another one: Dear Ann Landers: You and I go back a good many years. I beg2n to read your column in the San Francisco Examiner when I was in high school. Next thing I knew, I was on my way to Vietnam, and you were on the very same plane, going to visit our men in the hospitals. I couldn't believe it. I recall it was very hot on the plane, as the air-conditioning had broken down . The G.I.s kept coming to your seat in front of the plane, asking for your autograph. You were very nice about it, although it must have been a nuisance to be pestered like that. Thank you for keeping the column going. I'm sure you could have retired several years ago, but please hang in there until my grandkids are out of high school. That's only four more years. - A Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Reader Dear Ann Landers: The column you wrote about your trip to Vietnam to visit American soldiers in the hospitals brought back some great memories. I was on the first plane to Vietnam, on a permanent change of station. I arrived on Jan. 13, 1962, and stayed for a year. I went back in August 1966, and stayed for 18 months. I left the day the Tet offensive started, returned in January 1969, and stayed until October 1970 -- a total of four years in that country. My wife is ' Vietnamese, and our daughter was born in Saigon. A couple of years ago, I received a letter from Terry Richard, with whom I served in the 25th Infantry Division in CuChi from 1966 to 1968. He was look- ing to find the people he had served with. He found most of them, but some had passed on. In September 1988, we had a reunion in Atlantic City, N.J. It was · wonderful. The following year, we met in San Antonio, which was great. There are four people we have not been able to locate. Can you help, Ann? They served in the Public Information Office. They are Lt. Doug Hudson, Sp5 Michael Halloran, SSgr. Ray Hayes and PFC. Paul Eskew. Please publish my letter to let them know we are looking for theni. -· Thomas B. Rowe, Salt Lake City · · Dear Thomas B. Rowe: Here's yout: letter. I hope it helps rally the troops.

Moderator Jeffrey · Smith, president and CEQ of Ohio Valley Bank and president of the University of Rio Grande Board of Trustees, planned this seminar "to give Rio business students an opportunity to ask any question and take advantage of the years of collective experience of the panelists before they leave Rio ,Grande to begin their working years." Everything you 've always wanted to know from experienced businesJ owners and managers, but were afraid to ask is the expected tone of this frank panel discussion between panelists and students, according to Smith . The panelists are : Jack E. Fruth, owner of Fruth Pharmacies; Alan A.· Stockmeister, owner of Stockmeister Enterprises; Robert H. Easunan , owner of Ohio Valley Supermarkets; Steven C hapman, CPA; and Scott W Shockey, comptroller for Ohio Valley Bank and a 1992 gradu ate of the University of Rio Grande.

Or, what are the consequences of a Dear Ann Landen: In a recent column, you referred to your trip, to Vietnam in August of 1967. I boarded your flight at Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines, and I, too, was on my way to Vietnam. You were seated in the bulkhead, and I was back several rows. I recognized you immediately from your picture in the paper. Somehow, I got ~p my nerve, and went to your section of the plane just to say hello. . You were very pleasant, and didn't make me feel as if I were intruding. I had my tape recorder in my hand, and asked if you wouldn't mind saying a few words to my wife. You said, "I'd be happy to:• You then recorded the words, "Your husb~nd is a very fine fellow -- and attractiye, too. Don't worry about him. He will be corning home to you soon." .

I must also tell you, Ann , your words of wisdom throughout the years have contributed to our successful marriage. Thank yc)u. William E. Robertson, Sa~ Antonio Dear William Robertson: Apparently, your unit was one of the luckier ones. No doubt you've counted your blessings King and Queen. "It was just great, because nothing like that has ever happened for me. I never thought I'd ever be named valentine queen," exclaimed Betty, who went on to tell about the roses she received and the commendation sent to her from Rep. John Carey of the Ohio House of Representatives. Betty was born in Middleport and at the age of 6 started school at the State School for the Blind in Columbus. She said at first someone in her family would take her there, but later she would either go on the bus or the train and someone from the school would meet her and other students at the station. She said she quit school in the lOth grade, something she always regretted, got married, and had two children, a son who lives in Middleport, and a daughter in Zanesville. She al.!o has several grandchildren. Betty has always been a devout Christian. While her membership is at the Rocksprings Methodist Church, she now attends Victory Baptist Church in Middleport with her special friend fiom The Maples. She recalls that Louise Radford once told her that "it doesn't matter where you go to chu~h. just so you•go:'' ' She·.faithfully reads her Braille Bible · and several dev!)tional booklets, including · the Upper Room and Guideposts. She enjoys listening to gospel music and socializing at the Senior Center. While change in lifestyle is often resisted, particularly by the elderly and handicapped, it many times comes with windows of opportunity. That's what Jletty has found in her move to The Maples. Taylor beams with pride when she talks about her grandson. · "I told him he would inherit my dolls one day;' Taylor said. "He told me he would have a big yard sale, but I reminded him I would come back to haunt him." many times. I received several letters from G.l .s who were al.!o on that flight. Here's another one: Dear Ann Landers: You and I go back a good many years. I beg2n to read your column in the San Francisco Examiner when I was in high school. Next thing I knew, I was on my way to Vietnam, and you were on the very same plane, going to visit our men in the hospitals. I couldn't believe it. I recall it was very hot on the plane, as the air-conditioning had broken down . The G.I.s kept coming to your seat in front of the plane, asking for your autograph. You were very nice about it, although it must have been a nuisance to be pestered like that. Thank you for keeping the column going. I'm sure you could have retired several years ago, but please hang in there until my grandkids are out of high school. That's only four more years. - A Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Reader Dear Ann Landers: The column you wrote about your trip to Vietnam to visit American soldiers in the hospitals brought back some great memories. I was on the first plane to Vietnam, on a permanent change of station. I arrived on Jan. 13, 1962, and stayed for a year. I went back in August 1966, and stayed for 18 months. I left the day the Tet offensive started, returned in January 1969, and stayed until October 1970 -- a total of four years in that country. My wife is ' Vietnamese, and our daughter was born in Saigon. A couple of years ago, I received a letter from Terry Richard, with whom I served in the 25th Infantry Division in CuChi from 1966 to 1968. He was look- ing to find the people he had served with. He found most of them, but some had passed on. In September 1988, we had a reunion in Atlantic City, N.J. It was · wonderful. The following year, we met in San Antonio, which was great. There are four people we have not been able to locate. Can you help, Ann? They served in the Public Information Office. They are Lt. Doug Hudson, Sp5 Michael Halloran, SSgr. Ray Hayes and PFC. Paul Eskew. Please publish my letter to let them know we are looking for theni. -· Thomas B. Rowe, Salt Lake City · · Dear Thomas B. Rowe: Here's yout: letter. I hope it helps rally the troops.

Price. In the warm months the performen traveled by boat up and down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers giving shows on the boat as it docked at various landing;. During the winter months some of the same actors, singers and comedians used trains to get fiom town to town, so they could play opera houses and theaters. During the winter, the troupe became known as "Price and Bonnelli's Greater New York Minstrels." They played what was then the Gallipolis Theatre (now known as the Ariel) several times in the 1910's. One ad read: "Beautiful light effects, transformations and scenic embellishments, intermingled with sparkling music, and splendid costumes." There were 30 artists advertised as "aD white"; but with faces blackened with burnt cork. There were 6 big olio acts with the "Greater New York" including singers, dancers, acrobats, musicians and novelty entertainers. The show carried with them their own scenic back- drops. An ad from another year that the "Greater New York Minstrels" played Gallipolis stated: "We have no tiresome worn out performers who have ou!lived their usefulness but bright up to date young men James Sands GUEST COLUMNIST with 'later i<leas." Another ad stated, "a clean show of real merit." About theJanuary '1, 1915 performance in Gallipolis of "Price and Bonnelli's Greater New York Minstrels," the Daily Tribune reported: " The 'Greater New York' has played,lall the larger cities and has met with universal favor everywhere. The first part of the show caDed 'Peace Be Unto the World' is an entirely new innovation in first part settings. The entire section took place on board a set made to look like a Man ofWar ship. The singing end of the program is a feature. The singers have been selected 6om some of the largest musical shows. The principal comedians are James Bonnelli, Joe Benne~. John Martin and a number of well known stars including Curry and Selke. The performance closed with a 'Travesty on Humpty Dumpty.' " Steven Price, son of Edwin Price the owner, ran the winter shows along with I have been to Venezuela two times. My first trip I think was in January 1978, when I left Gallipolis it was 4 below zero. When I landed in Caracas as it was 112 degrees. It was so hot it melted much of the asphalt on the roads and I could hardly breathe. I almost passed out they caDed a doctor to examine me they thought I was going to die and so did I. The 'doctor told the person in charge at the airport to get me on the next plane out to Trinidad at OflCe, which was 20 degrees cooler than Caracas.What a relief that was for me I spent four pleasant days in Trinidad and three days in Tobago.

The Ohio Depart-. ment of Agriculture's Division of Amusement Ride Safety works with ride operators and permanent parks tO assure the entertainment provided by this multi-million dollar industry is safe. Ohio is home to a total of 2,0 It licensed rides found at 25 permanent parks, 89 gokart tracks, 19 water parks, 59 family entertainment centers, and 218 portable ride compantes. Ohio is diligent in ride safety inspections ODA's amusement ride safe· ty division inspectors work to assure compliance with Ohio ' laws and rules covering all amusement rides in Ohio. ODA inspects and licenses permanent and portable rides, go-kar1 tracks, water parks and family entertainment centers. In conducting annual preopening mecqanical inspections, inspectors evaluate each ride's structural integrity, electrical safety, hydraulic systems, brakes, tubs, sweeps, warning sign displays and gene,ral ride operations. During the season, ODA also performs mandatory operational inspections of all amusement rides to further protect consumers. Also, supplemental inspections are scheduled throughout the season on a need- to-inspect basis. Ohio amusement rides each bear a permanent · brass numbered ID plate that serves as a perpetual license number. A dated sticker is apalied each year to show that thiT!de is in,. compliance. Also, ODA keeps records certifying each owner has met state-mandated insurance requirements . .In the offseason, ODA ride inspectors spend much of their time performing safety-compliance audits of various sites. ODA stresses training for The comtantly expanding selection of mort than 700 types of rides, available from more than 150 manufacturers, challenge.~ inspectors to stay on top of industry trends. with the Advisory Council on Amusement Ride Safety to develop procedures to continually improve the efficiency of the program.

In the last four ride inspectors The constantly expanding selection of more than 700 types of rides, available from !TKlre than 150 manufa cturers , challenges inspectors to stay on top of industry trends.

The Ohio Depart-. ment of Agriculture's Division of Amusement Ride Safety works with ride operators and permanent parks tO assure the entertainment provided by this multi-million dollar industry is safe. Ohio is home to a total of 2,0 It licensed rides found at 25 permanent parks, 89 gokart tracks, 19 water parks, 59 family entertainment centers, and 218 portable ride compantes. Ohio is diligent in ride safety inspections ODA's amusement ride safe· ty division inspectors work to assure compliance with Ohio ' laws and rules covering all amusement rides in Ohio. ODA inspects and licenses permanent and portable rides, go-kar1 tracks, water parks and family entertainment centers. In conducting annual preopening mecqanical inspections, inspectors evaluate each ride's structural integrity, electrical safety, hydraulic systems, brakes, tubs, sweeps, warning sign displays and gene,ral ride operations. During the season, ODA also performs mandatory operational inspections of all amusement rides to further protect consumers. Also, supplemental inspections are scheduled throughout the season on a need- to-inspect basis. Ohio amusement rides each bear a permanent · brass numbered ID plate that serves as a perpetual license number. A dated sticker is apalied each year to show that thiT!de is in,. compliance. Also, ODA keeps records certifying each owner has met state-mandated insurance requirements . .In the offseason, ODA ride inspectors spend much of their time performing safety-compliance audits of various sites. ODA stresses training for The comtantly expanding selection of mort than 700 types of rides, available from more than 150 manufacturers, challenge.~ inspectors to stay on top of industry trends. with the Advisory Council on Amusement Ride Safety to develop procedures to continually improve the efficiency of the program.

In the last four ride inspectors The constantly expanding selection of more than 700 types of rides, available from !TKlre than 150 manufa cturers , challenges inspectors to stay on top of industry trends. Experienced ODA inspectors take at least 80 hours of additional formal classroom training each year to upgrade their expertise. They also participate in special safety seminars conducted by the National Associ ation of Amusement Ride Safety Officials and Amuse ment Industry Manufacturers and Suppliers International.
