The image began to fade in 1995 when he finished second, lpsing to newcomer Jeff Gordon, who suddenly was the man to beat at age 24. In 1996, the seemingly invincible Earnhardt crashed in Talladega, Ala., breaking 'his sternum and c'oUarbone. By the end of 1997, the once- feared driver was locked in a 59-race winless streak. Worse, he was no longer considered a threat to win. "I never thought I was finished;' Earnhardt said. "For a while, I was hurting, and thi~gs just weren't going the way we Wanted." . The resurgence began with Earnhardt w inning the 1998 season-opening Daytona 500 - the one big r.tce win that had eluded him the previous 19 yean. "That meant a lot to us;' Earnhardt said. "We had something to build on." That victory came in Larry McReynolds' first r.tce as Earn- hardt's crew chief. McReynolds, considered one of the best in the business, had moved to Richard Childress Racing over the winter, forming what appeared to be a super team with Earnhardt. The magic that Earnhardt had found with previous crew chiefs Doug Richert, Kirk Shelmerdine and Andy Petree was missing. Childress, Earnhardt's car owner since 1984, recognized it. Midway through 1998, Childress switched McReynolds to the car of Mike Skinner and moved unheralded Kevin Hamlin to Earnhardt's shop. "His thinking was that Skinner needed someone with Larry's experience and I'm not too sure what he thought I was going to bring to Earnhardt," Hamlin said. "But whatever it was, we were going to Start it inunediately." The chemistry was.instant. In their 69 races together, Earnhardt has won four times - nising his career total to 75 - with 19 top-6ves and 41 top-lOs. That includes one win and 12 top-1 Os in 15 .starts this season. "It's been a tremendous success all the way around;' Childress said. "Dale and Kevin have really Petty sqnglasses. "When things are supposed to happen," he said, "they happen."

They have the same demeanor and undentanding of what they want and need from a race car to be successful." Earnhardt gives the unassuming Hamlin, in his seventh year as a crew chief, considerable credit for the No. 3's renewed success. "We have a good understanding of each other," Earnhardt said. "It reminds me of the connection Kirk and I had. "If I'm thinking about going one way or the other with the car, he's thinking that same direc-' tion. You don't always have that and we've seen many teams that never find it." · ' Earnhardt believes the best is yet to come. Meanwhile, he has to keep things going in the right direction. "You struggle at times through your career;• he said. "The ideal situation, what you work for, is to get in that car on Sunday and go race.

In Ohio, 17,992 cases were reported in 1998 compared to 14,993 the previous year, said the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Nationally, gonorrhea cases rose 9 percent in 1998. There were 355,131 gonorrhe~ cases reported last year, up from 325,861 report. ed in the previous year. "The fear of the threat of HIV I AIDS is decreasing, and more people are beginning to engage in unsafe sex," said Cleveland Public Health Director Michele Whitlow. "We feel that is the overwhelming reasoh driving up the numbers." , Cleveland, which has one of the highest caseloads in the state, is ,also screening more people, said Whitlow. . The rate in Cleveland last year was nearly 700 cases per I 00,000 population. It was only about 600 per 100,000 in 1996. Sayers said one reason for the increase could be gonorrhea's growing resistance to antibiotics, primarily penicillin. People don't recover as quickly, yet continue to have sex, putting others at risk. Since the mid-1970s, the , federal government has given sta tes money to pay for gonorrhea surveillance. But the $1 million given to Ohio is not enough, said Sayers. "I think we need more resources to test people,'' he said. Scorpion bite victim released· CLEVELAND (AP) - Steven Sayers can finally continue his trip to Pennsylvania now that he has been treated for a scorpion sting he suffered while riding in an commercial airliner. Sayers, 40, of Minn eapolis, was stung on the hand Wednesday ·causing the Northwest airliner, en route from Detroit to Allentown, ·Pa., to be diverted to Cleveland. Sayers stayed a night at Southwest General Health Center in suburban Middleburg Heights for observation. He was discharged Thursday. The toxins in the scorpion's stinger can cause a reaction similar to a wasp sting, said Cynthia Mazer, the entomologist at the C leveland Botanical Gardens. She identified the creature's remains. ' How the scorpion got aboard is a mystery. : After the scorpion was killed on the plane, it was taken at the hospital's request, by a rather surprised cab driver to Mazer for examination. There are about 1,500 species of scorpions worldwide, of which 20 to 25 are dangerous to humans. No scorpions are native to the Midwest. Offidals: Loss of Piketon produdlon could devastate region COLUMBUS (AP) - The dosing of most of a uranium processing plant that is a major southern Ohio employer threatens to devastate the state's economically depressed Appalachian counties much more than recent layoffs at other companies, state officials said Thursday. "The U.S. Enrichment Corp. raped and pillaged our area as it pleased. The existence of the viability of southern Ohio as a whole is in jeopardy,'' said Sen. Michael Shoemaker, whose district covers Piketon where the plant is located. · The company announced Wednesday that it will shut down production next year at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion. Plant in Pike County. A small part of the plant will remain open and employ a few hundred workers for four to five years, until USEC's other plant in Paducah, Ky., is upgraded. The company, which supplies fuel for nuclear power reactors, said it can't charge enough to cover the cost of two plants because the worldwide price of uranium has fallen . • The move will eliminate 1,400 jobs, many of which are well-paying and held by people living in poor surrounding counties. "The impact of this ripples .out much further than just Piketon," said Joy Padgett, director of the Governor 's Office of Appalachia. Some of the highly skilled workers will have to relocate to find jobs that pay as well about $40,000 per year - as those at USE C. Others will stay and settle for lower-paying jobs provided there are enough to go around, which is unlikely given that the unemployment rate in southern Ohio is typically well above the national average. Either way, other companies will have to cut jobs, Padgett said. Businesses, such as restaurants suffer and hairstylists, because patrons won't be able to pay for services as frequently as they once could, and utilities will suffer because the most of the plant no longer will operate, she said. will Taft seeks resid-ential help for Pi eton plant WASHINGTON (AP)- Gov. Bob Taft asked for presidential help Thursday as he and other elected officials searched for a way to block or lessen the impact of a decision to stop producing nuclear reactor fuel in southern Ohio. U.S. Enrichment Corp., the nation's only uranium blender, said Wednesday that it will close the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant in Piketon, Ohio, over the next five years, with the bulk of the layoffs next year. That plant employs 1, 900 workers in an economically depressed part of the state. After it stops enriching uranium in 2001, the company will have a temporary Piketon work force of 500 or less. In a letter to President Clinton, Taft asked for an Energy Department investigation into one of the factors that USEC's board considered as it decided to consolidate operations in Paducah, Ky. Taft said he wants to know "if • electric rates offered to the Pad~ cab facility by the federally subsl- · dized Tennessee Valley Authority created at) unfair competitive diradvanrage for the Piketon plant." Electricity comprises about' 55 perc~nt of the cost of enrichl~f uraruum. . Taft also added his voice'~ib that of Ohio lawmakers who have sought a Treasury Department investigation into whether some USEC management decisi9ns were crafted deliberatelY, to P.TR,voke a plant closure. ·, · USEC is a former governmeq,t entity that was spun off into . an investor-owned company in;, a $1.9 billion stock deal in 19.98. The agreement that create~! USEC required it to keep bo(b the Piketon, Ohio and Paducalf, Ky. uranium enrichment . planm open through 2004. But ~J) escape clause allowed a plant closure in the event the company~ credit fell so low that its bonds were no longer rated as "investment grade." ff SYRACUSE - Harry W.

Too ·many students equal more repairs, report says WASHINGTON (AP) - Parents in Murfreesboro, Tenn., don't need a study to tell them their schools are overcrowded.. "There are about 15 portables in the school yard; kids are eating in the hallway, sitting cross-legged on the floor,'' said Stacey Borasky, a parent who led the charge for a new school to ease conditions at Walter Hill Elementary School. The school . is swelling with 1,096 K-8 pupils - nearly 200 more than were enrolled seven years ago. "It's an unhealthy environment,'' Borasky said. "We pack them into the building like ~atdines.'' · More than one-fifth of the nation's schools have more students than they were built to serve, the . Education Department said Thursday in a report suggesting that overcrowding and crumbling buildings go hand in hand. In 1999, the study said, 17,400 U.S. schoolhouses (or 22 perceni) were at least 6 percent over capacity, which the department deems overcrowded. 1\vo- thirds of these schools, which enroll nearly 18 million children, had roofS, plumbing and other building features that needed constant maintenance, violated building codes, or required outright replacement, the study said. The report was released as President Clinton pushed for congressional approval of his $1.3 billion emergency school-repair bill. "Rising enrollments and years of deferred maintenance have taken a serious toll, jeopardizing our children's health and the quality of their education,'' Clinton said as the Senate opened debate on fiscal 2001 education spending.

In Ohio, 17,992 cases were reported in 1998 compared to 14,993 the previous year, said the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Nationally, gonorrhea cases rose 9 percent in 1998. There were 355,131 gonorrhe~ cases reported last year, up from 325,861 report. ed in the previous year. "The fear of the threat of HIV I AIDS is decreasing, and more people are beginning to engage in unsafe sex," said Cleveland Public Health Director Michele Whitlow. "We feel that is the overwhelming reasoh driving up the numbers." , Cleveland, which has one of the highest caseloads in the state, is ,also screening more people, said Whitlow. . The rate in Cleveland last year was nearly 700 cases per I 00,000 population. It was only about 600 per 100,000 in 1996. Sayers said one reason for the increase could be gonorrhea's growing resistance to antibiotics, primarily penicillin. People don't recover as quickly, yet continue to have sex, putting others at risk. Since the mid-1970s, the , federal government has given sta tes money to pay for gonorrhea surveillance. But the $1 million given to Ohio is not enough, said Sayers. "I think we need more resources to test people,'' he said. Scorpion bite victim released· CLEVELAND (AP) - Steven Sayers can finally continue his trip to Pennsylvania now that he has been treated for a scorpion sting he suffered while riding in an commercial airliner. Sayers, 40, of Minn eapolis, was stung on the hand Wednesday ·causing the Northwest airliner, en route from Detroit to Allentown, ·Pa., to be diverted to Cleveland. Sayers stayed a night at Southwest General Health Center in suburban Middleburg Heights for observation. He was discharged Thursday. The toxins in the scorpion's stinger can cause a reaction similar to a wasp sting, said Cynthia Mazer, the entomologist at the C leveland Botanical Gardens. She identified the creature's remains. ' How the scorpion got aboard is a mystery. : After the scorpion was killed on the plane, it was taken at the hospital's request, by a rather surprised cab driver to Mazer for examination. There are about 1,500 species of scorpions worldwide, of which 20 to 25 are dangerous to humans. No scorpions are native to the Midwest. Offidals: Loss of Piketon produdlon could devastate region COLUMBUS (AP) - The dosing of most of a uranium processing plant that is a major southern Ohio employer threatens to devastate the state's economically depressed Appalachian counties much more than recent layoffs at other companies, state officials said Thursday. "The U.S. Enrichment Corp. raped and pillaged our area as it pleased. The existence of the viability of southern Ohio as a whole is in jeopardy,'' said Sen. Michael Shoemaker, whose district covers Piketon where the plant is located. · The company announced Wednesday that it will shut down production next year at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion. Plant in Pike County. A small part of the plant will remain open and employ a few hundred workers for four to five years, until USEC's other plant in Paducah, Ky., is upgraded. The company, which supplies fuel for nuclear power reactors, said it can't charge enough to cover the cost of two plants because the worldwide price of uranium has fallen . • The move will eliminate 1,400 jobs, many of which are well-paying and held by people living in poor surrounding counties. "The impact of this ripples .out much further than just Piketon," said Joy Padgett, director of the Governor 's Office of Appalachia. Some of the highly skilled workers will have to relocate to find jobs that pay as well about $40,000 per year - as those at USE C. Others will stay and settle for lower-paying jobs provided there are enough to go around, which is unlikely given that the unemployment rate in southern Ohio is typically well above the national average. Either way, other companies will have to cut jobs, Padgett said. Businesses, such as restaurants suffer and hairstylists, because patrons won't be able to pay for services as frequently as they once could, and utilities will suffer because the most of the plant no longer will operate, she said. will Taft seeks resid-ential help for Pi eton plant WASHINGTON (AP)- Gov. Bob Taft asked for presidential help Thursday as he and other elected officials searched for a way to block or lessen the impact of a decision to stop producing nuclear reactor fuel in southern Ohio. U.S. Enrichment Corp., the nation's only uranium blender, said Wednesday that it will close the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant in Piketon, Ohio, over the next five years, with the bulk of the layoffs next year. That plant employs 1, 900 workers in an economically depressed part of the state. After it stops enriching uranium in 2001, the company will have a temporary Piketon work force of 500 or less. In a letter to President Clinton, Taft asked for an Energy Department investigation into one of the factors that USEC's board considered as it decided to consolidate operations in Paducah, Ky. Taft said he wants to know "if • electric rates offered to the Pad~ cab facility by the federally subsl- · dized Tennessee Valley Authority created at) unfair competitive diradvanrage for the Piketon plant." Electricity comprises about' 55 perc~nt of the cost of enrichl~f uraruum. . Taft also added his voice'~ib that of Ohio lawmakers who have sought a Treasury Department investigation into whether some USEC management decisi9ns were crafted deliberatelY, to P.TR,voke a plant closure. ·, · USEC is a former governmeq,t entity that was spun off into . an investor-owned company in;, a $1.9 billion stock deal in 19.98. The agreement that create~! USEC required it to keep bo(b the Piketon, Ohio and Paducalf, Ky. uranium enrichment . planm open through 2004. But ~J) escape clause allowed a plant closure in the event the company~ credit fell so low that its bonds were no longer rated as "investment grade." ff SYRACUSE - Harry W.

Too ·many students equal more repairs, report says WASHINGTON (AP) - Parents in Murfreesboro, Tenn., don't need a study to tell them their schools are overcrowded.. "There are about 15 portables in the school yard; kids are eating in the hallway, sitting cross-legged on the floor,'' said Stacey Borasky, a parent who led the charge for a new school to ease conditions at Walter Hill Elementary School. The school . is swelling with 1,096 K-8 pupils - nearly 200 more than were enrolled seven years ago. "It's an unhealthy environment,'' Borasky said. "We pack them into the building like ~atdines.'' · More than one-fifth of the nation's schools have more students than they were built to serve, the . Education Department said Thursday in a report suggesting that overcrowding and crumbling buildings go hand in hand. In 1999, the study said, 17,400 U.S. schoolhouses (or 22 perceni) were at least 6 percent over capacity, which the department deems overcrowded. 1\vo- thirds of these schools, which enroll nearly 18 million children, had roofS, plumbing and other building features that needed constant maintenance, violated building codes, or required outright replacement, the study said. The report was released as President Clinton pushed for congressional approval of his $1.3 billion emergency school-repair bill. "Rising enrollments and years of deferred maintenance have taken a serious toll, jeopardizing our children's health and the quality of their education,'' Clinton said as the Senate opened debate on fiscal 2001 education spending.

Today's Highlight in History: On June 23, 1931, aviators Wiley Post and Harold Gatty took off from New York on the first round-the-world flight in a singleengine plane. On this date: ln 1868, Christopher Latham Sholes received a patent for an 1 invei,!tion he called a "Type-Writer." In 1'888, abolitionist Frederick Douglass received one vote from the Kentucky delegation at the Republican convention in Chicago, effectively making him the first black candidate nominated for U.S. president. (The norriination went to Benjamin Harrison.) In 1938, the Civil Aeronautics Authority was established. In 1947, the Senate joined the House in overri~ng President Truman's ve to of the Taft-Hartley Act. . In 1956, Gamal Abdel Nasser was elected president of Egypt. : In 1967, President Johnson and Soviet Premier Alexei Kosygin ' held the first of two meetings in Glassboro, N.J. , In 1969, Warren E. Burger was sworn in as chief U.S. justice by his predecessor, Earl Warren. In 1972, President Nixon and White House chief of staff H .R . Haldeman discussed a plan to use the CIA to obstruct the FBI's Watergate investigation. (Revelation of the tape recording of this conversation sparked Nixon's resignation in 1974.) In 1985, all 329 people aboard an Air- India Boeing 747 died when the plane crashed into the Atlantic Ocean near Ireland, apparently because of a bomb. · In 1989, the Supreme Court refused to shut down the "dial-aporn " industry, ruling Congress had gone too far in passing a law banning all sexually oriented phone message services.

You have said abused men should receive the ~me help as abused women, but this p,roblem is still largely ignored. : For years, we were told violence ' a;gainst women was underreported ~ecause of the social stigma. As soon as P,ublic-awareness campaigns were initiatthere was a dramatic increase in the number of abused women who were Willing to step forward and seek help. Don't you belieYe the same would happen if abused men were encouraged to step forward as well? There is an even greater social stigma that prevents men from coming forward. In our society, we ejncourage a macho attitude that says men should be able to take care of themselves. : Also, in case you don't know it, the Violence Against Women Act explicitly says all money should be used for ADVICE ,women's support only. There is no government protection or support allocated for abused men. Please, Ann, publicize this unjust treatment , and help us out. Bill in New York Dear Bill: We now know that many males are also abused by their mates, and I agree that they should receive the same governmental support as abused women. But they ntust be willing to identifY them selves, and many are reluctant to do so. That's where the problem lies. I say, SPEAK UP, GUYS. ~creemng Volunteer helps dispel belief about materialism BY KARL ZINSMEISTER Could today's prosperity gusher turn Americans into selfish materialists? The evidence is somewhat mixed. Recently, for instance, the United Way chapter in the heart of booming Silicon Valley almost went bust. Nationwid e, however, charitable donatiom rose 9 percent in 1999, and many 'Americans continue to carry out amazing acts of generosity. As an illustration, let me tell you about a man I met this month while observing the Stanley Cup playoffS in Dallas. The NHL's D:illas Stars have been criti cal in spreading hockey into the Air-Conditioning Belt- southern states where few citizens previously associated ice with speed, beauty and fun. Dallas has actually become a hockey hotbed, with kids rolling out of bed early in the morning to go wallop each other inside new rinks. Stars fans have also become favorites of the TV networks. The cameras have proven particularly ft;md of comely Dallas women they of the big hair, big teeth and big decolletage - who pack the stands wearing clothing that, well, doesn't have much thermal value. Dr. Craig Hobar has something to do with the condition of both the Stars players and the Stars spectators. As a team doctor, it was he you saw skittering onto the ice in the final game of the Stanley Cup to patch up New Jersey star Petr Sykora after he ended up on national TV with his eyes rolled back in his head due to a concussion. And Dr. Hobar also helped make some of those bouncy Dallas fans look as they do. The big hair and teeth are the work of other professionals, but certain of those big bust lines (and smooth faces and tucked tummies) were acquired right at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, where Hobar is one of the most sought-after cosmetic surgeons in his city (a world capital for such procedures.) patients with free cleft palate reconstructio~,. artificial limbs and eyes, and repairs of serious facial deformities. Many of the deformities LEAP repairs are so severe that the individuals involved had been shunned. Children. with severe cleft palates are often unable to consume food without it spurting out their noses. This is no dabbling hobby. Hobar takes fo~o~ r. mission trips per year, each lasting about . a week.

PLAGENZ'S VIEW Sometimes, pastors overstay their welcome I have on my desk two letters from church members one Luth eran , one United Methodist - who are unhappy with their ministers. The Lutheran pastor has been at his church for 35 years. The congregation hit its l)iembership peak 20 years .ago and for the \;Ist 15 years has been. on a steady decline. But the pastor gives no indication of leaving despite the broad hints church leaders have given him. My Methodist correspondent tells a different kind of story. Apparently, dissension is racking her congregation.1 "Our church has always had a formal service," she writes. "Now we never know what will h appen . Sometimes the pastor .will remove his robe when he leaves the pulpit and parade around the sanctuary in bare feet, or wear a T-shirt or sweat pants. He is very the- atrical." She says he insults l'arishioners from the pulpit. Have these clergymen stayed too long' Should .they be asked to leave? • These are not unusual situ ations. In one po ll of lay people who were asked about their objections to their churches, "dislike the pastpr" came out No. 1. Some people feel that after a minister has been at a church for five or six years - or I 0 , of-the- road position on everything," he says,.

They need someone to blame · Ministers are up against the same kind mentality in the churches." .·•. It has been his experience, says this church · executive, that when a church member is dis~ · satisfied with the minister, it is sometimes the' parishioner who ought to leave. '' ' In such a case, he says, "Instead of starting ~ campaign to get rid of the minister, it might ' be better for that layman io find anothJr' church." ·~ • · The same advice might be appropriate" when a lay person doesn't agree with a mirl:..; ister's political stance. One parishioner told hi! • · minister after he had given a controversia.lser=· mon on ~n control, "I don't want to hear . another sermort like that as long as I'm a ; member of this church." ' That' could be an example of when, if you don't like the minister, maybe you should , leave. ., : of. at th e most - he ·starts getting "set in his ways" and becomes unreceptive to new ideas. The feeling is that he ought to move on - . both for his sake and for the congregation's. But many lay people aren't so sure they want a new minister every few years. They believe that a clergyman's effectiveness, especially in an area such as pastoral counseling, increases over the years as rapport between minister and congregation deepens. . "If you're going to do something worthwhile, it takes time," says a Baptist preacher who has bee n at his church for 33 years. But this pastor acknowledges that tninisters who have strong views and stand up for what they (George R . Plage11z is a columnist for Newspar . believe in will not find it easy to stay put.

NEWS • BROOKLINE, Mass. (AP) - Bennett "Beano" Zylber makes· no apologies for his sweet tooth. He likes candy, particularly gummy bears, and eats with barely a thought of the consequences. And why not? He's only 14. . . Beano was at Brookline High School recently, getting his finger pricked and his cholesterol level tested. It wasn't his idea, Beano said, crediting his mother, but doctors say it's a good one. Teens might have youth on their side, but genetics and diet could be against them when it comes to heart disease. · Dr. Laura Hemphill, who c_onducted the privately funded screening for the Boston Heart FOundation, said 'a pre~ > disposition to heart disease can be detected early. At-risk young people, she said, are like the Titanic. "You may be ship-shape now, but the iceberg is out there," she said. "The earlier you make.small course adjustments, the better off you are." .. A genetic tt;ndency toward heart disease can be detected :,.t birth, in blood taken from umbilical cords, said Dr. Timothy Bricker, of Texas Children's Hospital and a spokesman for the American Pieart Association. · Several studies also show that teens are not too young 1!0 suffer the physical effects of dangerously high cholesterol levels. . Autopsies of American soldiers killed during the Korean and Vietnam wars showed arterial blockage in veterans as young as 18. A 1997 study of the autopsies of young people showed fatty deposits in the major arteries of those with high cholesterol. Some doctors think it's not necessary to test teens other than those with a family history of heart disease. Cholesterol levels can flu ctuate wildly during puberty, which means high or low results could change with adulthood. · Bricker thinks it's important to screen children early for heart disease and to teach tjlem "heart healthy" habits before they reach adolescence. The problem. he said, is that other teen risks grab the a!tention of public health officials . One teen participating in t~e recent screening, Tracey r.a,artin , 15, decided to get tested because her family has a , history of heart problems. The screening had her thinking about her diet, something she said teen girls already hear too much about. She said the low-cholesterol diet emphasizes health, not slenderness,' · "I think it's natural for girls to want to be thin and healthy," she said. "There's nothing wrong with being healthy."

OUR VIEW No bOoze Open container erifOrcement at Regatta a welcome move :TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Friday, June 23, the 175th day of 2000. There are 191 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On June 23, 1931, aviators Wiley Post and Harold Gatty took off from New York on the first round-the-world flight in a singleengine plane. On this date: ln 1868, Christopher Latham Sholes received a patent for an 1 invei,!tion he called a "Type-Writer." In 1'888, abolitionist Frederick Douglass received one vote from the Kentucky delegation at the Republican convention in Chicago, effectively making him the first black candidate nominated for U.S. president. (The norriination went to Benjamin Harrison.) In 1938, the Civil Aeronautics Authority was established. In 1947, the Senate joined the House in overri~ng President Truman's ve to of the Taft-Hartley Act. . In 1956, Gamal Abdel Nasser was elected president of Egypt. : In 1967, President Johnson and Soviet Premier Alexei Kosygin ' held the first of two meetings in Glassboro, N.J. , In 1969, Warren E. Burger was sworn in as chief U.S. justice by his predecessor, Earl Warren. In 1972, President Nixon and White House chief of staff H .R . Haldeman discussed a plan to use the CIA to obstruct the FBI's Watergate investigation. (Revelation of the tape recording of this conversation sparked Nixon's resignation in 1974.) In 1985, all 329 people aboard an Air- India Boeing 747 died when the plane crashed into the Atlantic Ocean near Ireland, apparently because of a bomb. · In 1989, the Supreme Court refused to shut down the "dial-aporn " industry, ruling Congress had gone too far in passing a law banning all sexually oriented phone message services. Ten years ago:African National Congress leader Nelson Mandela, on a U.S. tour, rece ived a tumultuous welcome in ·Boston. Today's Birthdays: Jazz musician Milt Hinton is 90.

You have said abused men should receive the ~me help as abused women, but this p,roblem is still largely ignored. : For years, we were told violence ' a;gainst women was underreported ~ecause of the social stigma. As soon as P,ublic-awareness campaigns were initiatthere was a dramatic increase in the number of abused women who were Willing to step forward and seek help. Don't you belieYe the same would happen if abused men were encouraged to step forward as well? There is an even greater social stigma that prevents men from coming forward. In our society, we ejncourage a macho attitude that says men should be able to take care of themselves. : Also, in case you don't know it, the Violence Against Women Act explicitly says all money should be used for ADVICE ,women's support only. There is no government protection or support allocated for abused men. Please, Ann, publicize this unjust treatment , and help us out. Bill in New York Dear Bill: We now know that many males are also abused by their mates, and I agree that they should receive the same governmental support as abused women. But they ntust be willing to identifY them selves, and many are reluctant to do so. That's where the problem lies. I say, SPEAK UP, GUYS. ~creemng Volunteer helps dispel belief about materialism BY KARL ZINSMEISTER Could today's prosperity gusher turn Americans into selfish materialists? The evidence is somewhat mixed. Recently, for instance, the United Way chapter in the heart of booming Silicon Valley almost went bust. Nationwid e, however, charitable donatiom rose 9 percent in 1999, and many 'Americans continue to carry out amazing acts of generosity. As an illustration, let me tell you about a man I met this month while observing the Stanley Cup playoffS in Dallas. The NHL's D:illas Stars have been criti cal in spreading hockey into the Air-Conditioning Belt- southern states where few citizens previously associated ice with speed, beauty and fun. Dallas has actually become a hockey hotbed, with kids rolling out of bed early in the morning to go wallop each other inside new rinks. Stars fans have also become favorites of the TV networks. The cameras have proven particularly ft;md of comely Dallas women they of the big hair, big teeth and big decolletage - who pack the stands wearing clothing that, well, doesn't have much thermal value. Dr. Craig Hobar has something to do with the condition of both the Stars players and the Stars spectators. As a team doctor, it was he you saw skittering onto the ice in the final game of the Stanley Cup to patch up New Jersey star Petr Sykora after he ended up on national TV with his eyes rolled back in his head due to a concussion. And Dr. Hobar also helped make some of those bouncy Dallas fans look as they do. The big hair and teeth are the work of other professionals, but certain of those big bust lines (and smooth faces and tucked tummies) were acquired right at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, where Hobar is one of the most sought-after cosmetic surgeons in his city (a world capital for such procedures.) patients with free cleft palate reconstructio~,. artificial limbs and eyes, and repairs of serious facial deformities. Many of the deformities LEAP repairs are so severe that the individuals involved had been shunned. Children. with severe cleft palates are often unable to consume food without it spurting out their noses. This is no dabbling hobby. Hobar takes fo~o~ r. mission trips per year, each lasting about . a week. As this column is published, he is in Belize. · Thus does a professional practice built on, The merits or demerits of man-made beauty are a subject for another day.

PLAGENZ'S VIEW Sometimes, pastors overstay their welcome I have on my desk two letters from church members one Luth eran , one United Methodist - who are unhappy with their ministers. The Lutheran pastor has been at his church for 35 years. The congregation hit its l)iembership peak 20 years .ago and for the \;Ist 15 years has been. on a steady decline. But the pastor gives no indication of leaving despite the broad hints church leaders have given him. My Methodist correspondent tells a different kind of story. Apparently, dissension is racking her congregation.1 "Our church has always had a formal service," she writes. "Now we never know what will h appen . Sometimes the pastor .will remove his robe when he leaves the pulpit and parade around the sanctuary in bare feet, or wear a T-shirt or sweat pants. He is very the- atrical." She says he insults l'arishioners from the pulpit. Have these clergymen stayed too long' Should .they be asked to leave? • These are not unusual situ ations. In one po ll of lay people who were asked about their objections to their churches, "dislike the pastpr" came out No. 1. Some people feel that after a minister has been at a church for five or six years - or I 0 , of-the- road position on everything," he says,. "you will risk alienating a lot of people whQ. will leave and not come back until you go,; That happened to me during the civil rightS, controversy." George R. Plagenz NEA COLUMNIST , A .clergy placement official says, "Pastors are' like baseball managers. If the team isn't win; , ning, the people in the stands call for th~ manager's scalp. They need someone to blame · Ministers are up against the same kind mentality in the churches." .·•. It has been his experience, says this church · executive, that when a church member is dis~ · satisfied with the minister, it is sometimes the' parishioner who ought to leave. '' ' In such a case, he says, "Instead of starting ~ campaign to get rid of the minister, it might ' be better for that layman io find anothJr' church." ·~ • · The same advice might be appropriate" when a lay person doesn't agree with a mirl:..; ister's political stance. One parishioner told hi! • · minister after he had given a controversia.lser=· mon on ~n control, "I don't want to hear . another sermort like that as long as I'm a ; member of this church." ' That' could be an example of when, if you don't like the minister, maybe you should , leave. ., : of. at th e most - he ·starts getting "set in his ways" and becomes unreceptive to new ideas. The feeling is that he ought to move on - . both for his sake and for the congregation's. But many lay people aren't so sure they want a new minister every few years. They believe that a clergyman's effectiveness, especially in an area such as pastoral counseling, increases over the years as rapport between minister and congregation deepens. . "If you're going to do something worthwhile, it takes time," says a Baptist preacher who has bee n at his church for 33 years. But this pastor acknowledges that tninisters who have strong views and stand up for what they (George R . Plage11z is a columnist for Newspar . believe in will not find it easy to stay put.

NEWS • BROOKLINE, Mass. (AP) - Bennett "Beano" Zylber makes· no apologies for his sweet tooth. He likes candy, particularly gummy bears, and eats with barely a thought of the consequences. And why not? He's only 14. . . Beano was at Brookline High School recently, getting his finger pricked and his cholesterol level tested. It wasn't his idea, Beano said, crediting his mother, but doctors say it's a good one. Teens might have youth on their side, but genetics and diet could be against them when it comes to heart disease. · Dr. Laura Hemphill, who c_onducted the privately funded screening for the Boston Heart FOundation, said 'a pre~ > disposition to heart disease can be detected early. At-risk young people, she said, are like the Titanic. "You may be ship-shape now, but the iceberg is out there," she said. "The earlier you make.small course adjustments, the better off you are." .. A genetic tt;ndency toward heart disease can be detected :,.t birth, in blood taken from umbilical cords, said Dr. Timothy Bricker, of Texas Children's Hospital and a spokesman for the American Pieart Association. · Several studies also show that teens are not too young 1!0 suffer the physical effects of dangerously high cholesterol levels. . Autopsies of American soldiers killed during the Korean and Vietnam wars showed arterial blockage in veterans as young as 18. A 1997 study of the autopsies of young people showed fatty deposits in the major arteries of those with high cholesterol. Some doctors think it's not necessary to test teens other than those with a family history of heart disease. Cholesterol levels can flu ctuate wildly during puberty, which means high or low results could change with adulthood. · Bricker thinks it's important to screen children early for heart disease and to teach tjlem "heart healthy" habits before they reach adolescence. The problem. he said, is that other teen risks grab the a!tention of public health officials . One teen participating in t~e recent screening, Tracey r.a,artin , 15, decided to get tested because her family has a , history of heart problems. The screening had her thinking about her diet, something she said teen girls already hear too much about. She said the low-cholesterol diet emphasizes health, not slenderness,' · "I think it's natural for girls to want to be thin and healthy," she said. "There's nothing wrong with being healthy."

Kadish, after briefing House memben; in a classified hearing Wednesday, said in an open session Thursday that allegations of fraudulent testing have been =de since 1996 and have been taken seriously with no evidence of deception.

The NTSB also is likely to point to a host offactors the night of July 16, when the plane Kennedy was piloting crashed off the Massachusetts island of Martha's Vineyard: thick haze, the darkness of night, and the fact Kennedy was flying over open water with no lights below to guide him. But the NTSB is not expected to criticize Kennedy's experience, and will not address the question of whether pilots without instrument rating should be allowed to fly at, night, NBC 5aid. K"Cnnedy did not have instrument rating, meaning he was not qualified to fly by instruments alone.

(AP) CINCINNATI (AP) Steve Parris thinks he's just getting started. The C in cin nati Reds hope the same holds true for them. Parris, the epitome of Cincinnati's fall from grace in 2000, ended two long pitching slumps Thursday night with his best game of the season, leading the Reds to a 5-3 victory over Colorado . It was only the Reds' third victory in 15 games, but it was a breakthrough in a couple of ways. Parris (3- to) hadn 't won since May 9, going 0-6 in his last seven starts. Worse, the Reds' rotation hadn't had a victory since June 3, going 0-10 with a 6.54 ERA while the club slipped 6 1/2 games behind St. louis in the NL Central. ' Parris hopes his slump-busting win marks a reversal. Last season, he won a c,a reer-high 11 games as the Reds won 96. He has already set a career high in losses this season while the R eds stumble along at 34-36. "WeD, 3-1 0 is really nothing to crow about," he said. " I could teD people I'm not pitching as bad as 3-10, but I have to take responsibility for that. "Maybe we could consider my first 14 starts just extended spring training and go {}!l from there." The Rockies have pulled out of their slow start by going 2311 since May 12, when they were 8 112 games out of first in the NL West. They head to Arizona for a weekend series only one game behind the Diamondbacks. Even though they lost two of their three close games in Cincinnati, th ey left for Arizona feeling good about themselves. " None of us likes to play this way,'' man ager Duddy Bell said. "But I don 't think this one game is going to affect the Ari. " zona senes. Throughout their two-week slide, the Reds have comp lained about breaks going against them. This · time, most of the breaks went their way. Kevin Jarvis (2-2), who was drafted by the R eds in 1991, made his first start against them. About 50 relatives and friends from his hometown of Lexin gton , Ky., were in the stands as he walked .t o ' the •aJil,!l mQund w here he made his maj or league debut in 1994. "It can't help but bring back some memories," Jarvis said. When he pitched for the Reds, he often had trouble closing out innings. Jarvis feU into the same rut pitching against .!tern. The right- hander got two outs in the first before Dante Bichette, the Reds' hottest hitter in June at .369, hit a soft fly off the end of the bat. It · dropped just inches fair inside the right-field lin e for an RBI double. Dmitri Young followed with another opposite-field double, this one a line drive th at landed about a foot fair. Sean Casey's single made it 3-0. "They were all well-placed, weren 't they?" Jarvis said. . "There's a fine line between Please see Reds.

(AP) - A perfect shot was part of a perfect day for Jane Geddes, the leader after the first round of the LPGA Championship. . Geddes made her third career · hole-in-one, a 6-iron from 158 yards, and birdied her final two holes for a S-under-par 66 on Thursday and a two-stroke lead over some of the bigge>t n~mes' in women's golf Karrie Webb wasn 't among them. The 25-year-old Australian, trying to win the second leg of the Grand Slam and her third consecutive major ch ampionship, struggled on the thick, wet rough and sm~oth , fast greens at DuPont Country Club for a \-over 72. "I came here with a goal to have· fun," said Geddes, who won the LPGA Championship in 1987 but hasn't won anything since 1994. "I had a ball today." She also had very few expectations. The dirt on Geddes' clubs was not from extra practice, but her last tournament three weeks ago. " Her mind was 3,000 miles away at hoqte in San Diego on a start~ up Internet company she recently founded, an escape from 18 years of professional golf. " I've; been putting a lot of pressu on . myself," she said. "I've been busy tryi.ng to figure out how to make a transition from tHiS 'ufe to that one. This may be,') my last day to lead a major, .!nd I'm out there thinking, 'Enjoy this day.' " I have no expectations right now. That might be the best way to go plaY.;" . Among those c hasing Geddes were Pat ' Bradley and Betsy King, twO( members of the Hall of Fame, a,Jong with Tracy Hanson and Gloria Pttrk. Like Ge1dtles, Bradley has not exactly been dialed in to golf. The only r~ason' she studies a leaderboard these days is to scout potential players for the Solheim Cup team she wiD captain in October. It was a mild shoe!, to see her name up there. "I've kept.', one eye on my game and one eye on some of my players," she said.

Starting on the . back nine, Geddes got off to a bad start partly because she was 1 over, and partly because she was as tense as ever. Her caddie reminder her of the pledge to have fun , and that seemed to set her loose. After a birdie got her back to even, Geddes' 6•iron on the 17th took two hops and rolled in for an ace. She closed out her round by l>itting a sand wedge from a divot in the 18th fairway to 6 feet for her fifth birdie of the day.

(AP) CINCINNATI (AP) Steve Parris thinks he's just getting started. The C in cin nati Reds hope the same holds true for them. Parris, the epitome of Cincinnati's fall from grace in 2000, ended two long pitching slumps Thursday night with his best game of the season, leading the Reds to a 5-3 victory over Colorado . It was only the Reds' third victory in 15 games, but it was a breakthrough in a couple of ways. Parris (3- to) hadn 't won since May 9, going 0-6 in his last seven starts. Worse, the Reds' rotation hadn't had a victory since June 3, going 0-10 with a 6.54 ERA while the club slipped 6 1/2 games behind St. louis in the NL Central. ' Parris hopes his slump-busting win marks a reversal. Last season, he won a c,a reer-high 11 games as the Reds won 96. He has already set a career high in losses this season while the R eds stumble along at 34-36. "WeD, 3-1 0 is really nothing to crow about," he said. " I could teD people I'm not pitching as bad as 3-10, but I have to take responsibility for that. "Maybe we could consider my first 14 starts just extended spring training and go {}!l from there." The Rockies have pulled out of their slow start by going 2311 since May 12, when they were 8 112 games out of first in the NL West. They head to Arizona for a weekend series only one game behind the Diamondbacks. Even though they lost two of their three close games in Cincinnati, th ey left for Arizona feeling good about themselves. " None of us likes to play this way,'' man ager Duddy Bell said. "But I don 't think this one game is going to affect the Ari. " zona senes. Throughout their two-week slide, the Reds have comp lained about breaks going against them. This · time, most of the breaks went their way. Kevin Jarvis (2-2), who was drafted by the R eds in 1991, made his first start against them. About 50 relatives and friends from his hometown of Lexin gton , Ky., were in the stands as he walked .t o ' the •aJil,!l mQund w here he made his maj or league debut in 1994. "It can't help but bring back some memories," Jarvis said. When he pitched for the Reds, he often had trouble closing out innings. Jarvis feU into the same rut pitching against .!tern. The right- hander got two outs in the first before Dante Bichette, the Reds' hottest hitter in June at .369, hit a soft fly off the end of the bat. It · dropped just inches fair inside the right-field lin e for an RBI double. Dmitri Young followed with another opposite-field double, this one a line drive th at landed about a foot fair. Sean Casey's single made it 3-0. "They were all well-placed, weren 't they?" Jarvis said. . "There's a fine line between Please see Reds.

(AP) - A perfect shot was part of a perfect day for Jane Geddes, the leader after the first round of the LPGA Championship. . Geddes made her third career · hole-in-one, a 6-iron from 158 yards, and birdied her final two holes for a S-under-par 66 on Thursday and a two-stroke lead over some of the bigge>t n~mes' in women's golf Karrie Webb wasn 't among them. The 25-year-old Australian, trying to win the second leg of the Grand Slam and her third consecutive major ch ampionship, struggled on the thick, wet rough and sm~oth , fast greens at DuPont Country Club for a \-over 72. "I came here with a goal to have· fun," said Geddes, who won the LPGA Championship in 1987 but hasn't won anything since 1994. "I had a ball today." She also had very few expectations. The dirt on Geddes' clubs was not from extra practice, but her last tournament three weeks ago. " Her mind was 3,000 miles away at hoqte in San Diego on a start~ up Internet company she recently founded, an escape from 18 years of professional golf. " I've; been putting a lot of pressu on . myself," she said. "I've been busy tryi.ng to figure out how to make a transition from tHiS 'ufe to that one. This may be,') my last day to lead a major, .!nd I'm out there thinking, 'Enjoy this day.' " I have no expectations right now. That might be the best way to go plaY.;" . Among those c hasing Geddes were Pat ' Bradley and Betsy King, twO( members of the Hall of Fame, a,Jong with Tracy Hanson and Gloria Pttrk. Like Ge1dtles, Bradley has not exactly been dialed in to golf. The only r~ason' she studies a leaderboard these days is to scout potential players for the Solheim Cup team she wiD captain in October. It was a mild shoe!, to see her name up there. "I've kept.', one eye on my game and one eye on some of my players," she said. It's best not to lose track of DuPont Country Club, which is much more difficult than recent years because of the thicker rough and greens that measured just under 11 on the Stimpmeter, the quickest they will see aU year except for the U.S. Open. Starting on the . back nine, Geddes got off to a bad start partly because she was 1 over, and partly because she was as tense as ever. Her caddie reminder her of the pledge to have fun , and that seemed to set her loose. After a birdie got her back to even, Geddes' 6•iron on the 17th took two hops and rolled in for an ace. She closed out her round by l>itting a sand wedge from a divot in the 18th fairway to 6 feet for her fifth birdie of the day.

Roger Clemens, the fi1•e-time CyYoung Award winner acquired by New York from Toronto before the 1999 season for left- bander David \Veils, reliever Graeme lloyd and second baseman Homer Bush, has not lived up .to expectations. · The Yankees and Tiger~ agreed Thursday to a tentative trade that would send Gonzalez to New York. He would have to waive his no-trade clause, then agree to a contract extension within a 72-hour window, which isn't likely to hap pen . Clemens decided if he co uldn't beat the Yankees, who won two of three World Series before they got him, he would join them. ' But Clemens has str uggled in New York, landing on the disabled list both seasons, while Wells continues to excel in Toronto. Wells improved to 12-2 this season and 29-12 in two seasons with the Blue Jays, ,a llowing two runs - one earned - and seven hits in seven innings of a 7-4 victory over Detroit. He struck out se ven and walked twb in winning, his fifth straight decision. Toronto and New York are a half-game behind Boston in the AL East after the Red Sox defeated the Yankees 4-2 Thursday night. "They're not playing like they've played the last couple of years. I think we're better," Wells said. "It doesn't matter who they acquire. I don 't care how good you are. If you don't have good pitching, you are not going to win . Just ask Cleveland." Clemens is 18-16 with the Yankees following consecutive Cy Young seasons ;!· ~_, ;~... with Toronto. His ERA was 4.60 last sea so n and is 4.76 this year. "George wanted a publi city thing.

Nomar Garciaparra had a pair of dou bles to raise his major league-leading batting average to .396, and Ramon Martinez pitched 6 2-3 strong innings as Boston earned a split of the four- game series. " You know George Steinbrenner is never shy about using his pocketbook, especially when he thinks he needs to do it to win," said Red So'x first baseman Mike Stanley, a former Yankee . "B ut we're in first plac e. Who says we need to do anything?"

He also has walket1 .40, three shy ofl~st year's . total. ·"I'm just not making the quality pitches at certain times," · Williamson 'said Thursday. "It's just a ,learning experience. I'm young aod I've got a lot to !earn in this game." His biggest problem is that he's trying',too hard. Most of his wild pitches have come on split-finger fastballs that he throws too hard, bouncing them in front of the plate. In the eighth inning Wednesday, he had the same problem with his slider. "I've been struggling a little at home;• he said. "I think I'm trying to,do too much here. It's kind of a tough time now, but I've just got to work through it. You know your team's ~till behind you. They still have confidence in me, so I've got to "get confidence back in myself and pitch the way I pitched last year." Williamson got two strikes on four of the six batten he faced Wednesday, and wound up walking one and giving up a hit to another. His worst pitches came after he got ahead 0-2 in the count.. "That's when he tries to punch 'ern a~ ?Ut,'' manager Jack McK- eon said. "(Pitching coach Don Gullett) was sitting on the bench saying, 'let them hit the ball, · you've got the lead."' Williamson has saved six games, blown two and gone 2-4, In his last nine appearances, he has given up 12 walks and 10 runs in 11 13 innings. · "Willie's done a good jo'b for most of the year;• McKeon said. "He'll Work his way out of it. We need him. He's ·a dominating pitcher. He'll walk a few here and there, but he can strike guys out" Villone injured in freak accident Left-bander Ron Villone didn't want to say exactly how he cut his left index finger at home earlier this week. He was too embarrassed by the whole situation. "A freak accident;• he said. Villone had to be scratched from his scheduled star,t Thursday because of the small cut running across the tip of his finger. Steve Parris started instead. "It's in a bad spot,"Villone said Thursday. "It's only a problem when I throw the fastball. You have to have a fastball in this game. Villone threw on Wednesday night and the cut kept opening up. "Ii feels fine, but you can't pitch when you're bleeding on the ball,'' he said. "A couple more days .should do it." Layin' 'em down Reds pitchers took extra bunting practice before Thursday's game, something they do from time to time. This session was particularly timely. Denny Neagle popped up a bunt in Wednesday night's loss, costing 'the Reds a chance to score in the sixth. ' ' "This is .not a thing to screw around with," McKeon said. " This is a thing that can help you win a ballgame ." · Neagle 'shattered one of his bats in the dugout tunnel after popping up his bunt with a runner on second at the time. 1996 FORD ESC,ORT 4 Dr. LX. 4 Cyl., Auto, Air Conditioning , AM!FM cassatte, Cruise.

He would have to waive his no-trade clause, then agree to a contract extension within a 72-hour window, which isn't likely to hap pen . Clemens decided if he co uldn't beat the Yankees, who won two of three World Series before they got him, he would join them. ' But Clemens has str uggled in New York, landing on the disabled list both seasons, while Wells continues to excel in Toronto.

Most of his wild pitches have come on split-finger fastballs that he throws too hard, bouncing them in front of the plate. In the eighth inning Wednesday, he had the same problem with his slider. "I've been struggling a little at home;• he said. "I think I'm trying to,do too much here. It's kind of a tough time now, but I've just got to work through it. You know your team's ~till behind you. They still have confidence in me, so I've got to "get confidence back in myself and pitch the way I pitched last year." Williamson got two strikes on four of the six batten he faced Wednesday, and wound up walking one and giving up a hit to another. His worst pitches came after he got ahead 0-2 in the count.. "That's when he tries to punch 'ern a~ ?Ut,'' manager Jack McK- eon said. "(Pitching coach Don Gullett) was sitting on the bench saying, 'let them hit the ball, · you've got the lead."' Williamson has saved six games, blown two and gone 2-4, In his last nine appearances, he has given up 12 walks and 10 runs in 11 13 innings. · "Willie's done a good jo'b for most of the year;• McKeon said. "He'll Work his way out of it. We need him. He's ·a dominating pitcher. He'll walk a few here and there, but he can strike guys out" Villone injured in freak accident Left-bander Ron Villone didn't want to say exactly how he cut his left index finger at home earlier this week. He was too embarrassed by the whole situation. "A freak accident;• he said. Villone had to be scratched from his scheduled star,t Thursday because of the small cut running across the tip of his finger. Steve Parris started instead. "It's in a bad spot,"Villone said Thursday. "It's only a problem when I throw the fastball. You have to have a fastball in this game. Villone threw on Wednesday night and the cut kept opening up. "Ii feels fine, but you can't pitch when you're bleeding on the ball,'' he said. "A couple more days .should do it." Layin' 'em down Reds pitchers took extra bunting practice before Thursday's game, something they do from time to time. This session was particularly timely. Denny Neagle popped up a bunt in Wednesday night's loss, costing 'the Reds a chance to score in the sixth. ' ' "This is .not a thing to screw around with," McKeon said. " This is a thing that can help you win a ballgame ." · Neagle 'shattered one of his bats in the dugout tunnel after popping up his bunt with a runner on second at the time. 1996 FORD ESC,ORT 4 Dr. LX. 4 Cyl., Auto, Air Conditioning , AM!FM cassatte, Cruise.

He is one of only five people (to my knowledge) who have been decorated by Queen Elizabeth II for services to bridge, winning an MBE in 1979. He was one of his homeland's best players, but he had one theory with which I do not agree: that every four-club bid in a constructive auction asks for aces. Still, while researching his bridge life, I found two interesting deals, which I will feature today and tomorrow. Bell was the declarer in this six-heart contrac t. How would you try to bring home 12 tricks? West leads the diamond king .. (Did he have a more effective opening salvo?) North did well to raise to fi ve hearts, and Bell raced on to six with his good controls, confident he would see strong hearts in the dummy, With such •a powerful spade holding, West should have led a trump. Yet if he had, as someone probably o nce suid, there would have been no story. After West's diamond lead, Bell ruffed, played a trump to dummy's queen, ruffed a second diamond, led another heart to the dummy, ruffed a third diamond, and crossed to dummy by overtak ing the club jack with the queen. The las t trump was drawn and the diamond ace taken, Bell discarding the ace and king of clubs from his hand! Dummy's three high clubs were cashed, a spade was led to the ace. and the last trick was conceded. It was a most unusual dummy reversal.

Limbaugh was "seriously considered," Ohlmeyer said, adding, "I'm hopeful that Rush will do some appearances for the show in some capacity." Miller insisted he would not try to dominate the air time - and he and Ohlmeyer were quick to say Miller's role on the program is not that of a comedian.

Last WednesPa.y, Gov. Bob Taft signed a bill authorizing counties !O place a tax initiative on loc:!l ballots for funding of the service, which up until nQ\1( has not been an option for counties in seareh o£911 funding. · , In the past several months, the GOvernor's Office ·of Appalachia has considered assistance . for states without the 911 service, but this bll does not address any state-le~Himding at all .. But Gene. Lyons', 'administrator of the current EMS operation, said Friday ~t the county is not quite reatW for a 911 inStillation. At the top of the '.'to-do"list fo.r f.-yons and ihe EMS board is a fine-tuning of. the house numbering systems now in p)a~e i~ the county, and its individual communlties. A weD-displayed, rlumerically-consistent ·house nurp.bering system is vital for 911 service, because the uni~ are dispatched bY those addresses. Lyons s.aid earlier this week that a 911 system Yiould be a welcome addition to the county, but that a number of operational details must be determined and equipment must be carefully evaluated. L)'Ons said she plans to meet with county commissioners and the engineer's office about the numbering issue, and that a committee will likely be established to examine all areas which might of concern during a tranSition. Office space, personnel,_equipment needs all must be cc;U-Cfully evaluated and carefully planned before funding is sought, Lyons said. Nine counties in Ohio now operare without 911 serVice: Meig;, Carroll, Columbiana, Harrison, Monroe, Morgan, Noble and Vinton. Taft's bill will go into effect 90 days after it is signed and filed with the secretary of state.
