With a mixture of humor and firmness, a roomful of women active in various levels of the 2.3 million-member denomination said the AM£ Church should not·be entirely male-controlled. They said that the majority of the church's member.; are women and that women have served for years as church pastors and elders who oversee pastors. A group of church activists introduced a resolution Friday asking the committee whidt oversees election of bishops to recommend electing a woman bishop. The 57-member committee, which includes men and women, took the request under review. "We're just asking for 0 ur slice of the pie," said Jayme Coleman Williams, the first woman elected as general officer of the church. "We feel that we women are the backbone of the churCh." Williams said she is not a candidate for bishop but supported the resolution. Estimates vary, but some members say women outnumber men in the church by 70 percent to 30 percent. Williams and several other women who spoke at a news confcmmce said it is time the church sends a message of liberation for women and ends decades of gender bias. They said the church's male leaders must learn to share power. "When one has power, it's very difficult for persons to decide to release that," said Dorothy Peck, president of the church's Connectional Women's Missionary Sociery About 1,800 delegates attending the c_hurch's general conference in Cincinnati are to vote Monday to elect bishops. Two women are among the 41 candidateS ro till rwo bishop's positions vacated by retirements. A majority vote at AME conferences, which take place every four years, is required to elect a bishop. Twenty active bishops, with support fium retired bishops, run the church in intervals between the general conferences. The Albert B. Sabin Cincinnati Convention Center, where the conference is in session, resembted a political convention Friday, with supporters lobbying for their bishop candidateS by holding up photo placards and disrributing leaOets. The female candidates are the Rev. Carolyn Tyler Guidry, a presiding elder and former pastor who supervises 19 AM£ churches in the Los Angeles area, and the Rev.Vashti M. McKenzie, pastor of Payne Memorial AM£ Church in Bal·timore. Youngsters, adults stay up late to be first to buy new book ASSOCIATED PRESS to get their book, she said.

The association overwhelming·Iy turned down a proposed contract Thursday, with 1,317 troopers voting to reject it and 47 voting in favor of it. The old contract expired June 30. Troopers will continue workin~ while the new proposal goes into binding arbitration because state law prohibits law enforcement officers from striking. The expired contract allows the state to suspend troopers without pay for as long as three days every six months if they do not meet physical fitness standards. The proposed contract would have increased that to five days suspension every three months. Steve Gu lyassy, deputy director for the state's collective bargaining office, said weoght requirements and penalties have' been in the troopers' contracts for six years, wlth minor changes. In the previous contract, the state decreased penalties for being overweight to illow troopers more time to lose weight. "Some of the tmopers didn't take advantage of the time that was less restrictive and they ended up being more out of shape than tht•y · were before," Gulyassy said. He said that in the pmposed contract, the state toughened penalties to motivate those troopers to shape up. Gulyassy said the intention of the weight requirement is to keep troopers physically fit so they can meet demands of their j obs. But the troopers say the w,•ight requirements 11re in place mai11ly to upholdan ideal. "We agree that the better phys= ical shape you 'rc in, the better you 're going to be able to do the JOb. But these requirements arc about how people see us, · not about ou r abilities," said Jim Ronerts, executive director of the Ohio State Troopers Association. The stat• acknowledges that image is part of the reason for the weight requirement. "Anytime you have a fit and trim individual in law enforcement, it makes a better showing to the public than someone who is overweight and out of shape," Gulyassy said.

With a mixture of humor and firmness, a roomful of women active in various levels of the 2.3 million-member denomination said the AM£ Church should not·be entirely male-controlled. They said that the majority of the church's member.; are women and that women have served for years as church pastors and elders who oversee pastors. A group of church activists introduced a resolution Friday asking the committee whidt oversees election of bishops to recommend electing a woman bishop. The 57-member committee, which includes men and women, took the request under review. "We're just asking for 0 ur slice of the pie," said Jayme Coleman Williams, the first woman elected as general officer of the church. "We feel that we women are the backbone of the churCh." Williams said she is not a candidate for bishop but supported the resolution. Estimates vary, but some members say women outnumber men in the church by 70 percent to 30 percent. Williams and several other women who spoke at a news confcmmce said it is time the church sends a message of liberation for women and ends decades of gender bias. They said the church's male leaders must learn to share power. "When one has power, it's very difficult for persons to decide to release that," said Dorothy Peck, president of the church's Connectional Women's Missionary Sociery About 1,800 delegates attending the c_hurch's general conference in Cincinnati are to vote Monday to elect bishops. Two women are among the 41 candidateS ro till rwo bishop's positions vacated by retirements. A majority vote at AME conferences, which take place every four years, is required to elect a bishop. Twenty active bishops, with support fium retired bishops, run the church in intervals between the general conferences. The Albert B. Sabin Cincinnati Convention Center, where the conference is in session, resembted a political convention Friday, with supporters lobbying for their bishop candidateS by holding up photo placards and disrributing leaOets. The female candidates are the Rev. Carolyn Tyler Guidry, a presiding elder and former pastor who supervises 19 AM£ churches in the Los Angeles area, and the Rev.Vashti M. McKenzie, pastor of Payne Memorial AM£ Church in Bal·timore. Youngsters, adults stay up late to be first to buy new book ASSOCIATED PRESS to get their book, she said.

People formed lines and were given numbers before they could receive their book, she said. Many youngsters and store employees . were dressed in costumes to look like characters ftom the book. Sheri Hill, manager of The Blue Marble in Cincinnati, said the children's bookstore stayed open until 1 a.m., then was to reopen at 6 a.m. with a breakfast and children's activities. "We've had a nice turnout, about 50 or 60 people," store employee Ali Sylvester said at abou t 12:15 a.m. "We didn't know what to anticipate, but we knew it would be big because of all the hype." Sylvester said the store ordered about 200 of the books' and arranged for the special midnight opening, its fi~st ever. More than I 00 people, some of whom were in line for three hours, waited for the book to go on _ sal~ at the Borders stoTe ii\ Cleveland Heights. The store kept more than 500 copies carefully secured in a rear room until midnight. Youngsters sipped drinks and ate snacks in the store's lounge area while awaiting the magic moment. Not every bookstore stayed open la te. Sally Oddi, owner of Cover to Cover in north Columbus, said the midnight parties and hoopla were a little silly. "I don't want to turn this into Beanie Babies. This is too good an .experience for the kids for their reading lives. I don't want to cheapen it or turn it into a big flash and have it die out," Oddi said.

The association overwhelming·Iy turned down a proposed contract Thursday, with 1,317 troopers voting to reject it and 47 voting in favor of it. The old contract expired June 30. Troopers will continue workin~ while the new proposal goes into binding arbitration because state law prohibits law enforcement officers from striking. The expired contract allows the state to suspend troopers without pay for as long as three days every six months if they do not meet physical fitness standards. The proposed contract would have increased that to five days suspension every three months. Steve Gu lyassy, deputy director for the state's collective bargaining office, said weoght requirements and penalties have' been in the troopers' contracts for six years, wlth minor changes. In the previous contract, the state decreased penalties for being overweight to illow troopers more time to lose weight. "Some of the tmopers didn't take advantage of the time that was less restrictive and they ended up being more out of shape than tht•y · were before," Gulyassy said. He said that in the pmposed contract, the state toughened penalties to motivate those troopers to shape up. Gulyassy said the intention of the weight requirement is to keep troopers physically fit so they can meet demands of their j obs. But the troopers say the w,•ight requirements 11re in place mai11ly to upholdan ideal. "We agree that the better phys= ical shape you 'rc in, the better you 're going to be able to do the JOb. But these requirements arc about how people see us, · not about ou r abilities," said Jim Ronerts, executive director of the Ohio State Troopers Association. The stat• acknowledges that image is part of the reason for the weight requirement. "Anytime you have a fit and trim individual in law enforcement, it makes a better showing to the public than someone who is overweight and out of shape," Gulyassy said.

In a memo to the State Department on Friday, Clinton reduced the entty levels for European refugees by 10,000 and increased levels for African refugees by 2,000. ' Under the new authorization, 37,000 refugees would be allowed in from Europe - 20,000 from the former Yugoslavia and 17,000 from the former Soviet Union. Another 6,000 are allowed entry from East Asia; 20,000 from Africa; 10,000 from the Near East and South Asia; and 3,000 from Latin America and the Caribbean. Another 4,000 slots were not allocated. The 80,000 refugees to be allowed entry is 10,000 fewer than the authorization for the current fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30. In fi>cal 1999. the authorization was 78,000. Admissions are based on country-by-country allocations made each year by the State Department.

(AP) - Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson , blamed high fuel prices on the Clinton-Gore administration Saturday, saying consumers are being "Gored" at the pump. "How have we stumbled to this point?" Thompson said in the Weekly GOP radio address, taped Friday. "It's quite simple. President Clinton and Al Gore have completely failed to develop an energy policy to lead our nation into the· new century, and each and every one of us is paying for it." Thompson said the Clinton-Gore administration's failure to decrease the country's dependence on foreign oil and open up ~xploration of domestic oil sources have led to higher fuel prices across the nation. . The soaring prices have been particularly severe in the Milwaukee and Chicago area, where prices peaked at more than $2 a galion in June. The high fuel prices have become a favorite political issue in the. presidential campaign. Presumptive GOP presidential nominee George W. Bush has .started quoting a passage from Gore's 1992 book "Earth in the Balance" in which the vice president states his ~upport for higher fuel taxes. Thompson, a longtime Bush supporter, struck a similar theme, ~!aiming Gore's support of higher fuel taxes means he supports higher fuel bills that will lead to more expensive summer vacations and higher air conditioning costs. · He also said the only answer to the rising fuel prices is to decrease the country's dependency on foreign oil and open up exploration of domestic oil sources. "I'll tell you one thing Al Gore did help invent; Higher gas prices," said Thompson, who Bush picked to chair the GOP convention platform conunittee and has been mentioned as a possible running mate. 1~e VA L L £ Y WE AT H £ R U• .• 6unba!' tltimtJ ·ii>tnlinel • Page A7_ Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis, Ohio • Point Pleasant, WV Sunday, July 9, 2000 •.

I By 15, most American kids ire already at work WASHINGTON (AP) - Half of,A merican 12-year-olds hold informal jobs like baby-sitting or yard work, and by age 15, nearly two- thirds are employed , according to a new Labor Department report. " The American work ethic starts at an· early age," said Labor Secretary Alexis Herman of the findings about young Americans' working habits, released by the Bureau. of Labor Statistics on Friday. Still, the study found that a smaller pet:centage of the teen-age population held jobs in the late 1990s than two decades earlier, in the late 1970s. During the period from 1977 to 1979, an average 30 percent of 15- to 17- yearolds held jobs during .the school year and 43 percent did in the summer. By comparison, from 1996 to 1998, an average of 25' percent in the same age group held jobs during the school year and 34 percent in the summer. The BLS study combined fi\'dings from annual government surveys of American households with in -depth interviews con- Tire 1997 iuterviews revealed that about 50 percent of kid-~ l111d worked in informal job-• at age 12.

Findings were foC\l!ed on ltids 15 and younger. The 1 997 interviews revealed that about 50 percent of kids had worked in informal jobs at age 12 . By age 14, the share of kids working rose to 57 percent. About 43 percent of 14-year-olds were still doing only odd jobs like neighbors' yardwork or baby-sitting, while 24 percent had formal, ongoing employment, and some did both kinds of work. By age 15, 64 percent of teen-agers were working - 38 percent in formal, ongoing employment arrangements, and. 31 percent in formal jobs that included hours worked during the school year - not just over summer vacation. The average weekly hours worked by employed 15- to 17-.year olds were 23 in the summer and 17 during the school year. White teen-agers are more likely than minorities to work, the study found . Nearly two- thirds - 64 percent - of white teen-agers did some type of formal or informal work by age 14 , compared with 43 percent of black teen-agers and 41 per<! cent of. Hispanic teens.

Study shows cancer treatment boosts effects of AIDS ~cocktails'-· CHICAGO (AP) - Adding a cancer-fighting substance appears to boost the effectiveness of AIDS drug cocktails, government researehers say. The researchers hope interleukin 2 will translate in.to better survival rates for AIDS patientS. The treatment is still experil)lental. The findings appear in next week's Journal of the American Medical Association, an AIDS theme issue published to coincide with the 13th International AIDS Conference, which begins Sunday in Durban, South t\frica . Though potent combinations of AIDS drugs in the past decade have made AIDS more manageable by subduing the virus, they are not a cure. Worried about strains, drug-resistant virus researc hers tried adding interleukin-2 to the mix. lnterleukin 2 is a protein that regulates the body's immune response. A synthetic version is produced by Chiron Corp. and is federally approved for the treatment of melanoma and kidney cancer, but not AIDS. The study - funded by Chiron and led by Dr. Richard T. Davey Jr.ofrhe National Institute of Allergy and Infecfious Diseases - involved 78 patients on various combinations of antiviral AIDS drugs. About half also got twice-daily injections of interleukin-2 periodically during the two-year study, which ended in 1998. The AIDS virus was suppressed in almost twice as many of the interleukin patients, 67 perc~nt versus 36 percent. The researchers also measured levels of CD4 T cells, diseasefighting white blood cells attacked by the AIDS virus. After one year, CD4 levels among the interleukin ~o up climbed an average of 112 percent, compared with 18 percent for the others. The higher the dose, the better the response.

In a memo to the State Department on Friday, Clinton reduced the entty levels for European refugees by 10,000 and increased levels for African refugees by 2,000. ' Under the new authorization, 37,000 refugees would be allowed in from Europe - 20,000 from the former Yugoslavia and 17,000 from the former Soviet Union. Another 6,000 are allowed entry from East Asia; 20,000 from Africa; 10,000 from the Near East and South Asia; and 3,000 from Latin America and the Caribbean. Another 4,000 slots were not allocated. The 80,000 refugees to be allowed entry is 10,000 fewer than the authorization for the current fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30. In fi>cal 1999. the authorization was 78,000.

The soaring prices have been particularly severe in the Milwaukee and Chicago area, where prices peaked at more than $2 a galion in June. The high fuel prices have become a favorite political issue in the. presidential campaign. Presumptive GOP presidential nominee George W. Bush has .started quoting a passage from Gore's 1992 book "Earth in the Balance" in which the vice president states his ~upport for higher fuel taxes. Thompson, a longtime Bush supporter, struck a similar theme, ~!aiming Gore's support of higher fuel taxes means he supports higher fuel bills that will lead to more expensive summer vacations and higher air conditioning costs. · He also said the only answer to the rising fuel prices is to decrease the country's dependency on foreign oil and open up exploration of domestic oil sources. "I'll tell you one thing Al Gore did help invent; Higher gas prices," said Thompson, who Bush picked to chair the GOP convention platform conunittee and has been mentioned as a possible running mate. 1~e VA L L £ Y WE AT H £ R U• .• 6unba!' tltimtJ ·ii>tnlinel • Page A7_ Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis, Ohio • Point Pleasant, WV Sunday, July 9, 2000 •.

I By 15, most American kids ire already at work WASHINGTON (AP) - Half of,A merican 12-year-olds hold informal jobs like baby-sitting or yard work, and by age 15, nearly two- thirds are employed , according to a new Labor Department report. " The American work ethic starts at an· early age," said Labor Secretary Alexis Herman of the findings about young Americans' working habits, released by the Bureau. of Labor Statistics on Friday. Still, the study found that a smaller pet:centage of the teen-age population held jobs in the late 1990s than two decades earlier, in the late 1970s. During the period from 1977 to 1979, an average 30 percent of 15- to 17- yearolds held jobs during .the school year and 43 percent did in the summer. By comparison, from 1996 to 1998, an average of 25' percent in the same age group held jobs during the school year and 34 percent in the summer.

Findings were foC\l!ed on ltids 15 and younger. The 1 997 interviews revealed that about 50 percent of kids had worked in informal jobs at age 12 . By age 14, the share of kids working rose to 57 percent. About 43 percent of 14-year-olds were still doing only odd jobs like neighbors' yardwork or baby-sitting, while 24 percent had formal, ongoing employment, and some did both kinds of work. By age 15, 64 percent of teen-agers were working - 38 percent in formal, ongoing employment arrangements, and. 31 percent in formal jobs that included hours worked during the school year - not just over summer vacation. The average weekly hours worked by employed 15- to 17-.year olds were 23 in the summer and 17 during the school year. White teen-agers are more likely than minorities to work, the study found . Nearly two- thirds - 64 percent - of white teen-agers did some type of formal or informal work by age 14 , compared with 43 percent of black teen-agers and 41 per<! cent of. Hispanic teens. Similar disparitid persisted among 15-year-olds. , Girls were just as likely to be working by age 15 as ' boys, but were apt to be doing different types of jobs . Girls were mofi: likely to hold informal jobs, like baby-sit'-' ring, for example. ·~ Am~ng 15-year-old boys, about 42 p~r~ cent were formally employed while only ~.~. percent of girls were. . .1 For 15-year-old boys, the top three for;] mal jobs were cook, janitor or cleaner, and miscellaneous food preparation . Girls of the same age. were most likely to be cashiers, waitresses or general office clerks. Study shows cancer treatment boosts effects of AIDS ~cocktails'-· CHICAGO (AP) - Adding a cancer-fighting substance appears to boost the effectiveness of AIDS drug cocktails, government researehers say. The researchers hope interleukin 2 will translate in.to better survival rates for AIDS patientS. The treatment is still experil)lental. The findings appear in next week's Journal of the American Medical Association, an AIDS theme issue published to coincide with the 13th International AIDS Conference, which begins Sunday in Durban, South t\frica . Though potent combinations of AIDS drugs in the past decade have made AIDS more manageable by subduing the virus, they are not a cure. Worried about strains, drug-resistant virus researc hers tried adding interleukin-2 to the mix. lnterleukin 2 is a protein that regulates the body's immune response. A synthetic version is produced by Chiron Corp. and is federally approved for the treatment of melanoma and kidney cancer, but not AIDS. The study - funded by Chiron and led by Dr. Richard T. Davey Jr.ofrhe National Institute of Allergy and Infecfious Diseases - involved 78 patients on various combinations of antiviral AIDS drugs. About half also got twice-daily injections of interleukin-2 periodically during the two-year study, which ended in 1998. The AIDS virus was suppressed in almost twice as many of the interleukin patients, 67 perc~nt versus 36 percent. The researchers also measured levels of CD4 T cells, diseasefighting white blood cells attacked by the AIDS virus. After one year, CD4 levels among the interleukin ~o up climbed an average of 112 percent, compared with 18 percent for the others. The higher the dose, the better the response.

ShopKo retail sales up 'D'ansportation unit hailed · Stocks rise as interest rate fears lessen NEWYORK (AP)- Stocks rose strongly Friday as investors welcomed the l:ltest indication that the economy is slowing enough to prevent more interest rate increases. The brightening mood particularly helped banks and retailers. · The Dow Jones industrial average rose 154.51 at 10,635.98. Broader stock indicators also gained. The Nasdaq composite index rose 62.63 to 4,023.20 and The Standard & Poor's . 500 index was up 22.23 at 1,478.90. For the week, the Dow gained 188.09 and the Nasdaq added 57 .09 . . Stocks turned robust Friday after the Labor Department reported that American businesses added fewer jobs than expected in June. That's the clearest evidence yet that the Federal Reserve is succeeding in its campaign ro keep the economy &om overheating. Businesses added 206,000 jobs last month after cutting 165,000 positions in May, the Labor Department said. The unemployment rate fell to near a 30-year low of 4 percent. The cenrral bank's six interest rate increases in the past year along with fears more may be necessary have cooled investor enthusiasn\ for many stockS in 2000. But with businesses adding fewer jobs, and demand for housing and automobiles ebbing, Wall Street is feeling more comfortable with the notion that the Fed is bringing the high flying U.S. economy in for a soft landing. As a result, investors are betting the central bank is just about done raising rates for the rest of the year. "There is a perception that the economy has slowed," Steven Goldman, market strategist for Weeden & Co. of Greenwich, Conn. "There' is a feeling in the market that we are in the 8th inning of interest rate rises," he said. "And that's put stocks in a pre-emptive mode." . · An improving outlook for interest rates put :> glow on 6nancial companies, which bene6t &om steady or declining interest rates. Chase Manhattan rose $2.063 to $50.063-, and BankAmerica rose S 1.438 to $47.438. Big retailers gained with the expectation that steadier interest rates will fuel ~onsumer buying. That included 1-Jome Depot, up $4.125 at $55.375, and WalMart, up $4.688 to $61.875. The positive jobs report helped calm the market, which has been jittery over the past week ahead of second-quarter earnings reports due out beginning next week. The jobs report is one of the most important economic barometers the Fed uses to determine the fate of interest rates. Other big gainers on the stock market Friday included Texa. Instruments, up $1.50 at $68.625; and Gateway, up $5.188 at $61.938. Qualcomm bu cked the upward trend, slipping $5.063 to $56.625 on a report that K()rean wi~less op~.:ators would not use technology from the telecom company. Yahoo also slipped to $116.50 after $5.875 Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown downgraded the stock, citing concerns about revenue growth. Deutsche upgraded online recruiter l;:lotjobs.com, which jumped $3.125 or 24 percent to $15.938.

Hammerin' Hank remembers the 1972 game ATLANTA (AP) - Hank Aaron was the o nly member of the hometown team to play in the 1972 All -Star game. And when _he left ~tlanta .Stadium that night, he thought he ~ good chance to be the MVP. Turns out, the Hammer didn't hang around for the e nd . " I caught a flight to Mobile. I wanted to see my mother, spend a little time her during the break," Aaron recalled. "On the plane, the captain came on and told us the National League had won on Joe Margan's hit in extra innings. I thought maybe he called up to say I was the MVP." Morgan's lOth-inning single gave th e NL a 4-3 victory and earned him the MVP award . The people's choice would have been Aaron, who hit a two-run homer in the sixth off spitballer Gaylord Perry and later quipped he hit the dry side. • "That was probably my biggest moment in an All-Star game," sa id Aaron, who played in 24 of th em on his way to breaking Babe Ruth 's home-run record. " I had promised myself I was going to have a good game."

ShopKo retail sales up 'D'ansportation unit hailed · Stocks rise as interest rate fears lessen NEWYORK (AP)- Stocks rose strongly Friday as investors welcomed the l:ltest indication that the economy is slowing enough to prevent more interest rate increases. The brightening mood particularly helped banks and retailers. · The Dow Jones industrial average rose 154.51 at 10,635.98. Broader stock indicators also gained. The Nasdaq composite index rose 62.63 to 4,023.20 and The Standard & Poor's . 500 index was up 22.23 at 1,478.90. For the week, the Dow gained 188.09 and the Nasdaq added 57 .09 . . Stocks turned robust Friday after the Labor Department reported that American businesses added fewer jobs than expected in June. That's the clearest evidence yet that the Federal Reserve is succeeding in its campaign ro keep the economy &om overheating. Businesses added 206,000 jobs last month after cutting 165,000 positions in May, the Labor Department said. The unemployment rate fell to near a 30-year low of 4 percent. The cenrral bank's six interest rate increases in the past year along with fears more may be necessary have cooled investor enthusiasn\ for many stockS in 2000. But with businesses adding fewer jobs, and demand for housing and automobiles ebbing, Wall Street is feeling more comfortable with the notion that the Fed is bringing the high flying U.S. economy in for a soft landing. As a result, investors are betting the central bank is just about done raising rates for the rest of the year. "There is a perception that the economy has slowed," Steven Goldman, market strategist for Weeden & Co. of Greenwich, Conn. "There' is a feeling in the market that we are in the 8th inning of interest rate rises," he said. "And that's put stocks in a pre-emptive mode." . · An improving outlook for interest rates put :> glow on 6nancial companies, which bene6t &om steady or declining interest rates. Chase Manhattan rose $2.063 to $50.063-, and BankAmerica rose S 1.438 to $47.438. Big retailers gained with the expectation that steadier interest rates will fuel ~onsumer buying. That included 1-Jome Depot, up $4.125 at $55.375, and WalMart, up $4.688 to $61.875. The positive jobs report helped calm the market, which has been jittery over the past week ahead of second-quarter earnings reports due out beginning next week. The jobs report is one of the most important economic barometers the Fed uses to determine the fate of interest rates. Other big gainers on the stock market Friday included Texa. Instruments, up $1.50 at $68.625; and Gateway, up $5.188 at $61.938. Qualcomm bu cked the upward trend, slipping $5.063 to $56.625 on a report that K()rean wi~less op~.:ators would not use technology from the telecom company. Yahoo also slipped to $116.50 after $5.875 Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown downgraded the stock, citing concerns about revenue growth. Deutsche upgraded online recruiter l;:lotjobs.com, which jumped $3.125 or 24 percent to $15.938.

I wanted to see my mother, spend a little time her during the break," Aaron recalled. "On the plane, the captain came on and told us the National League had won on Joe Margan's hit in extra innings. I thought maybe he called up to say I was the MVP." Morgan's lOth-inning single gave th e NL a 4-3 victory and earned him the MVP award . The people's choice would have been Aaron, who hit a two-run homer in the sixth off spitballer Gaylord Perry and later quipped he hit the dry side. • "That was probably my biggest moment in an All-Star game," sa id Aaron, who played in 24 of th em on his way to breaking Babe Ruth 's home-run record. " I had promised myself I was going to have a good game."

The left-hander pitched etght shutout innings Friday night and the . C::incinnati Reds held o n for a 2-1 vtctory over their mtrasute rivals, , who ntight have a chance to trade for N eagle later this month . : "I don't know what it would uke to get him;· manager Charlie ' -Manuel said. "Neagle's a good pitcher. H e always has been.'' , . Neagle (8-2) is pitching as well now as he has in several years. He -gave up six hits in eight innings, throwing a season-high 138 pitches before handing a 2-0 lead over to Danny Graves in the ninth. · Graves improved to 14-for- 15 in save chances with a lot of help :from his defense. Russell Branyan's two-out pinch hit into the left-field ·~ ·corner scored Roberto Alomar, but Travis Fryman was easily' out at the . plate rtying to score from first on the play. Alex Ochoa quickly got to the ball in left and made a perfect throw · to shortstop Barry Larkin, whose relay to catcher Benito Santiago beat ~ F_ryman by severn! steps. , · · "There are times with two outs that you shouldn't send 'em and that was probably one of them right there," third base coach Jim Riggleman said. · By winning for only the lOth time in 30 games, the R eds moved to eight games behind St. Louis in the NL Central. Unless they make a charge right after the All-Star break, they'll have to consider trading Neagle, who's a free agent after the season. Although the Indians fell a season-high 11 112 games behind the Chicago White Sox in the AL Central on Friday, they're still in the running for the wild card - if they can get starting pitching. Manny Ratnirez is expected back after the All-Sur break, but it's unclear when disablea starters Jaret Wright and Charles Nagy migh.t return.. Neagle, who lost to the Indians at Jacobs Field on June 9, knows that C leveland will be one of the teams inquiring about him if the Reds decide to trade. "Yeah, they're a possibility; ' Neagle said." A lot of teams are possibilities. The beii thing for me to do is not think about it. A couple of weeks ago I caught myself thinking about those possibilities and let my focus drift. 1 decided I'm still pitching for the Cincinnati Reds and my job is to try to pitch this team into the postseason." He pitched them to a pulsating win in front of 53,509 fans, the Reds' first sellout since opening day.T he intrastate ~eries has been their best draw ove r the last three years - Saturday's game also is sold out. With thousands of C leve land fans cheering them on, the Indians kept up short against Neagle time and time again . In the ninth, they came up a few feet short of tying it. All-Star C huck Fin ley (7-6) gave up seven hits in 7 2-3 innings, including C hris Stynes' solo homer in the third and Sean C\sey's RBI double in the eighth. "I kind of got o utpttched, basically," Finley said. "That's the way it works sometimes." Neagle pitched out of threats in the third, fourth , fifth and sixth. He was tiring when manager Jack McKeon decided to let Graves finish it, drawing loud boos. " I knew the fans wouldn't like it, but he said his unk was about empty," McKeon said. Neagle. who missed half of last season with shoulder wealtress, wanted to try for the shutout but didn't quibble with McKeon's decision. The left-bander has won his last three sta rts , going at leas[ seven innings each time. · · "1 think this seaso)l is comparable to the 20-win season in 1997," said Neagle, who went 20-5 for Atlanta that year. "Physically, this is the best I've felt ." The Indians would feel a lot better if they had someone' like him in the rourion . "Neagle pitched a heck of a game," Manuel said. "He threw his changeup over the plate, moved his fastball in and out and wasn 't afraid to throw inside. He's a smart pitcher."

The left-hander pitched etght shutout innings Friday night and the . C::incinnati Reds held o n for a 2-1 vtctory over their mtrasute rivals, , who ntight have a chance to trade for N eagle later this month . : "I don't know what it would uke to get him;· manager Charlie ' -Manuel said. "Neagle's a good pitcher. H e always has been.'' , . Neagle (8-2) is pitching as well now as he has in several years. He -gave up six hits in eight innings, throwing a season-high 138 pitches before handing a 2-0 lead over to Danny Graves in the ninth. · Graves improved to 14-for- 15 in save chances with a lot of help :from his defense. Russell Branyan's two-out pinch hit into the left-field ·~ ·corner scored Roberto Alomar, but Travis Fryman was easily' out at the . plate rtying to score from first on the play. Alex Ochoa quickly got to the ball in left and made a perfect throw · to shortstop Barry Larkin, whose relay to catcher Benito Santiago beat ~ F_ryman by severn! steps. , · · "There are times with two outs that you shouldn't send 'em and that was probably one of them right there," third base coach Jim Riggleman said. · By winning for only the lOth time in 30 games, the R eds moved to eight games behind St. Louis in the NL Central. Unless they make a charge right after the All-Star break, they'll have to consider trading Neagle, who's a free agent after the season. Although the Indians fell a season-high 11 112 games behind the Chicago White Sox in the AL Central on Friday, they're still in the running for the wild card - if they can get starting pitching. Manny Ratnirez is expected back after the All-Sur break, but it's unclear when disablea starters Jaret Wright and Charles Nagy migh.t return.. Neagle, who lost to the Indians at Jacobs Field on June 9, knows that C leveland will be one of the teams inquiring about him if the Reds decide to trade. "Yeah, they're a possibility; ' Neagle said." A lot of teams are possibilities. The beii thing for me to do is not think about it. A couple of weeks ago I caught myself thinking about those possibilities and let my focus drift. 1 decided I'm still pitching for the Cincinnati Reds and my job is to try to pitch this team into the postseason." He pitched them to a pulsating win in front of 53,509 fans, the Reds' first sellout since opening day.T he intrastate ~eries has been their best draw ove r the last three years - Saturday's game also is sold out. With thousands of C leve land fans cheering them on, the Indians kept up short against Neagle time and time again . In the ninth, they came up a few feet short of tying it. All-Star C huck Fin ley (7-6) gave up seven hits in 7 2-3 innings, including C hris Stynes' solo homer in the third and Sean C\sey's RBI double in the eighth. "I kind of got o utpttched, basically," Finley said. "That's the way it works sometimes." Neagle pitched out of threats in the third, fourth , fifth and sixth. He was tiring when manager Jack McKeon decided to let Graves finish it, drawing loud boos. " I knew the fans wouldn't like it, but he said his unk was about empty," McKeon said. Neagle. who missed half of last season with shoulder wealtress, wanted to try for the shutout but didn't quibble with McKeon's decision. The left-bander has won his last three sta rts , going at leas[ seven innings each time. · · "1 think this seaso)l is comparable to the 20-win season in 1997," said Neagle, who went 20-5 for Atlanta that year. "Physically, this is the best I've felt ." The Indians would feel a lot better if they had someone' like him in the rourion . "Neagle pitched a heck of a game," Manuel said. "He threw his changeup over the plate, moved his fastball in and out and wasn 't afraid to throw inside. He's a smart pitcher."

[ guess it's natural for all owners to make such promises to their fans; however, it might be naively optimistic to predict a playoff appearance in their second year. After all, their first season doesn't begin for another 90 days. · Who can blame M cConnell for being so excited about his new ream?

A lor has happened since spring training. Both teams now face double-digit deficits in their divisions. M cConnell also ignored what NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman !hlid about expansion teams. McConnell , in his euphoric stare, has given his word and he intends to win now. ft's nice to see rllat in an owner. I hope he feels that my when-it's time to open the wallet to get the free agents necessary to make it to the playoffs. I have two words for McConnell and other overly optimistic Jackets fans: Cleveland Browns. Remember last year at this time when Browns fans predicted a minimum of five wins for the new expansion team? In three yeats, Cleveland fans would be laughing at Art Modell, as the Browns would finally be playing in the Super Bowl. Like most football fans outside of Pittsburgh , I would like to see the Browns make it to the big dance in two years. but I wouldn't bet the farm. The same thing goes for the Blue Jackets. They have gone a long way to giving their team the appearance of being competitive and respectable for the upcoming season; however, M cConnell may not yet realize what it's going to take to be a playoff team. The Jackets have done well. They signed goalie Ron Tugnutt from Pittsburgh. They acquired Rostislav Klesla .. Sam Wilson THE SPORTS DR. with the fourth pick in the draft. They hired a ..highly. successful head coach in Dave King. The additions of Marc Denis, Greg Gardner. Krfysztof Ohwa and Chris Nielsen were quality moves by this franchise. The Jackets a lso have the added benefit of faci ng three teams that are new to rhe league. This is Nashville's third season, Atlan tis second, and the first for Minnesota and Columbus. These are definitely teams the Jackets can compete against and win. It's the other 26 teams that wiU have difficulty playing. If the Jackets win 20 games, they should consider this season a success. Although there is a feeling of optimism in Columbus. MacLean had the right response to McConn ell 's guarantee : "Whoa, slow .down now." The all-star game will be next Tuesday. and naturally some deserving players were left off the roster. The Reds are upset that NL manager Bobby Cox omitted Danny Graves. Naturally, Cox made sure that the Braves were well represented in the game. but that means players like Graves and Arizona outfielder Steve Finley-will be watching the game from home. It's in the same Ameri can League where Yankees manager Joe Torre included four of his players. That means the Chicago White Sox, the team with the best record in baseball, will only have three players on the roster. With the Sox leading the Jndians .by 10 games, it's difficult to understand why Cleveland has four players on the team. This is especially disconcerting when you consider that Chuck Finley made the team with a 7-5 record . After the way the pale hose destroy~d the Yankees and Indians the last couple of weeks, Torre should have put the entire Sox team in the game. lorre got even by putting only three Sox on the team . I'm not saying that players like Finley are undeserving, but it just doesn't register when almost a third of the American League team comes from the Yankees and Indians, and neither team is in first place. If you include the Athletics, which also has four representatives, 13 players come from three second-place teams. Graves can't expect to make the team when the Reds are playing below .500 and have Barry Larkin starting at short for the National League. Last year, the Reds sent three players, but they had one of the league's best records .

It's not likely they'll get this opportuniry ~gain. It's particularly disconcerting for players like Graves, who has nine wins,'13 saves and a 1.89 ERA, and Alfonseca. who leads the league with 26 saves. : I don't know if Graves or Castillo bad bonm clauses in their contracts for allstar appearances. but I'm sure Maddux and Glavine do. It's so unlikely that Graves would make the team that :his agent probably didn 't consider asking 'for such a clause. It's nice to give Andres Galarraga, who missed last season for cancer trearmem, a c hance to play in the game, but not at the expense of other players. If Cox wanted Galarraga, he . should have left either Maddux or Glavine off the team. With 30 players on each rost.er, it's nonsense to have five Braves on the team.

[ guess it's natural for all owners to make such promises to their fans; however, it might be naively optimistic to predict a playoff appearance in their second year. After all, their first season doesn't begin for another 90 days. · Who can blame M cConnell for being so excited about his new ream?

McConnell even intimated that the Jackets could make the playoff cut in their first season.

Did McConnell ignore the other Ohio professional sports teams when he made • his remarks' Did he see how dejected Reds and ?· Indians fans are at the all-star break>. : · The acquisition of Ken Griffey Jr. by : :cincinnati and Chuck Finley by Cleve: land were supposed to be miS<ing pieces !-. for postseason success? A lor has happened since spring training. Both teams now face double-digit deficits in their divisions. M cConnell also ignored what NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman !hlid about expansion teams. McConnell , in his euphoric stare, has given his word and he intends to win now. ft's nice to see rllat in an owner. I hope he feels that my when-it's time to open the wallet to get the free agents necessary to make it to the playoffs. I have two words for McConnell and other overly optimistic Jackets fans: Cleveland Browns. Remember last year at this time when Browns fans predicted a minimum of five wins for the new expansion team? In three yeats, Cleveland fans would be laughing at Art Modell, as the Browns would finally be playing in the Super Bowl. Like most football fans outside of Pittsburgh , I would like to see the Browns make it to the big dance in two years. but I wouldn't bet the farm. The same thing goes for the Blue Jackets. They have gone a long way to giving their team the appearance of being competitive and respectable for the upcoming season; however, M cConnell may not yet realize what it's going to take to be a playoff team. The Jackets have done well. They signed goalie Ron Tugnutt from Pittsburgh. They acquired Rostislav Klesla .. Sam Wilson THE SPORTS DR. with the fourth pick in the draft. They hired a ..highly. successful head coach in Dave King. The additions of Marc Denis, Greg Gardner. Krfysztof Ohwa and Chris Nielsen were quality moves by this franchise. The Jackets a lso have the added benefit of faci ng three teams that are new to rhe league. This is Nashville's third season, Atlan tis second, and the first for Minnesota and Columbus. These are definitely teams the Jackets can compete against and win. It's the other 26 teams that wiU have difficulty playing. If the Jackets win 20 games, they should consider this season a success. Although there is a feeling of optimism in Columbus. MacLean had the right response to McConn ell 's guarantee : "Whoa, slow .down now." The all-star game will be next Tuesday. and naturally some deserving players were left off the roster. The Reds are upset that NL manager Bobby Cox omitted Danny Graves. Naturally, Cox made sure that the Braves were well represented in the game. but that means players like Graves and Arizona outfielder Steve Finley-will be watching the game from home. It's in the same Ameri can League where Yankees manager Joe Torre included four of his players. That means the Chicago White Sox, the team with the best record in baseball, will only have three players on the roster. With the Sox leading the Jndians .by 10 games, it's difficult to understand why Cleveland has four players on the team. This is especially disconcerting when you consider that Chuck Finley made the team with a 7-5 record . After the way the pale hose destroy~d the Yankees and Indians the last couple of weeks, Torre should have put the entire Sox team in the game. lorre got even by putting only three Sox on the team . I'm not saying that players like Finley are undeserving, but it just doesn't register when almost a third of the American League team comes from the Yankees and Indians, and neither team is in first place. If you include the Athletics, which also has four representatives, 13 players come from three second-place teams. Graves can't expect to make the team when the Reds are playing below .500 and have Barry Larkin starting at short for the National League. Last year, the Reds sent three players, but they had one of the league's best records . This is the first time in years that Oak- Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis, Ohio • Point Pleasant, Bass Busters Winners Columbus hockey ans shouldn't be too optimistic Last week, Blue Jackets owner John H . McConnell guaranteed the fans of Columbus that the Jackets "were going • r • land, St. Louis and the White Sox had more than two players on the team. The lesson is that "(inning teams usu: ally get more representation . Yes, that's little comfort for Grates. Florida second baseman Luis Castillo and pitcher Antonio Alfonseca. It's not likely they'll get this opportuniry ~gain. It's particularly disconcerting for players like Graves, who has nine wins,'13 saves and a 1.89 ERA, and Alfonseca. who leads the league with 26 saves. : I don't know if Graves or Castillo bad bonm clauses in their contracts for allstar appearances. but I'm sure Maddux and Glavine do. It's so unlikely that Graves would make the team that :his agent probably didn 't consider asking 'for such a clause. It's nice to give Andres Galarraga, who missed last season for cancer trearmem, a c hance to play in the game, but not at the expense of other players. If Cox wanted Galarraga, he . should have left either Maddux or Glavine off the team. With 30 players on each rost.er, it's nonsense to have five Braves on the team.

WILDLIFE PRESERVATION . i~ Groundwork for today's programs laid BY JOHN WISIE ODNR, DIVISION OF WILDLIFE In the mid-19th century, Ohio lawmakers baa recognized the need for protecting the diversity of wildlife species present in the state. In 1857, the state's first wildlife diversity law was passed that afforded protection from the . intentional injury or death ofany sparrow, robin, bluebird, thrush, mockingbird, swallow, catbird, or cardinal. As time progressed, there became an increasing awareness that natural resources, such as aninuls, fish, trees, plants, rivers, and the like, needed protection and restoration if they were to ever survive. · Additional laws were passed in subsequent decades and a state agency was created to manage the natural resources of the state. Among the many areas of responsibility now shared by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and its Division ofWildlife is the enhancement of wildlife diversity. Today's wildlife diversity program can trace its roots back to 1857, but more recently to passage of the state's endangered _wildlife law that was enacted in 1973. This law afforded even more protection along with federal· laws that have given new attention and ilirectioii- to wildlife diversity nunagement. .. In 1983, legislation was passed that created a special state .income tax "JUNK MAN" MANLEY - . A plaque was presented to Walt Manley by the Athens Shrine in appreciation of his special contributions to the Tabloid Fund which goes to support the Shriners Children's Hospital in Cincinnati. It reads "Presented to Walton "Junk Man" Manley in appreciation of your untiring dedication to Shrine Tabloid Day." (Charlene Hoeflich photo) . checkoff program. Through this program Ohio taxpayers have contributed millions of dollars for wildlife diversity management projects and the protection of scenic rivers, plants, and other wildlife species. The Division ofWildlife, as part of its wildlife diversity management goals, has sought to reintroduce certain wildlife species that once were present in the state but were extirpated, or became absent for various reasons over the course of Ohio's nearly 200-year history. River otters, ospreys, peregrine falcons, trumpeter swans, Karner blue butterflies, American burying beetles, pirate perch and snowshoe hares are among those species that have beenreintroduced. Wildlife populations that have been protected and restored have included bald eagles, barn owls, Eastern Plains garter snakes, Western banded killifish, paddlefish, freshwater mussels, brook trout, and lake sturgeon . The Ohio Wildlife Diversity and Endangered Species program funds also have enabled the Division ofWildlife to form partnerships with Ohio zoos that have included the creation of exhibits, displays, and curr_icull!m to educate the public about Ohio's native wildlife. A wetlands, migratory songbird, and reptile exhibits were developed in partnership with Columbus Zoo. The Otter Creek and bald eagle exhibits were developed in part- the 19th Century ner'ship with the Cincinnati Zoo. The Wolf Woods exhibit and the trumpeter swan reintroduction project have been developed through partnership with the Cleveland Zoo. The Backyard Birds and Frog Town, USA exhibits were developed in p~rtnership with theToledo Zoo. Tl\e Division ofWildlife has produced and distributed various publications and educational materials to further educate thepublic about O~Q's wildlife diversity. Most notable among these is the Ohio Wildlife Viewing Guide, developed through a national program known as Watchable Wildlife. The viewing guide provides wildlife viewing information and profiles of79 designated viewing sites around the state. Funding for these and other wildlife diversity program projects has come mainly from taxpayer contribptions through the state income tax checkoff program. · Additional revenues, which are used exclusively for wildlife diversity projects, come from sales of the cardinal and bald eagle license plates. · · Meigs man's rec:yclin ~fforts pay off for suffering -c ildren "•' BY cfHA'RUNE.HIJEPUCH TIME5-SENTINEL STAFF OHO FISH REPORT. Largemouth bass abundant in Wellston COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Here is the weekly fishing report provided by the Division ofWildlife ' of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources: Southeast Ohio Veto Lake - Bluegills and sunfish are moderately populated and provide fair fishing action. Fish in areas with weed beds and other aquatic vegetation with small worms and larval baits for best results . The shoreline area between the dam and Constiruc tion Road is the top location for anglers seeking spotted bass. Largemouth bass up to six pounds can also be found in this Washington County lake. Flathead ca tfish up to 40 pounds can also be caught here along with channel catfish in the 8-12 pound range. Wellston Ciry Reservoir - Discarded Christmas trees have been placed in this lake to serve as fish concentration devices. These are good areas to fish for largemouth bass, channel catfish, bluegills, and sunfish. Walleyes and saugeyes also inhabit the lake and can be caught when drifting with jill' and minnows or weight-forward spinners tipped with a night crawler. Blue gills and sunfish have an average size of six inches and can be caught on larval baits and small worms. Muskingum River .. The Rokeby Pool and Philo tailwaters include 11 river miles through Morgan and Muskingum counties. Bluegills can be taken near weed beds and woody structure when using small worms and larval baits either on jig.; or suspended beneath a bobber. Largemouth bass measuring 12 to 14 inches can be caught in these same areas and around the docks . Use spinners, crank baits, soft plastic baits or live bait for best results. 'The best fishing times are early morning and evening. Channel and flathead catfish can be taken throughout the river during the summer. Fish in and around logjams and deep holes with large chubs and small sunfish when seeking flathead catfish. 1..-hannel catfish can be caught on night crawlers and chic ken livers. Central Ohio O'Shaugne<Sy Reservoir - Largemouth bass can be caught during evening and early morning and measure 12 to 18 inches. The best locations are areas along the west shoreline that have submerged brush or fallen trees. Keeper bass must measure at least 12 inches. Submerged cove r along the deeper shoreline areas can produce good catches of crappies when fishing with ~· Most of these fish measure 12 to 16 inches. Areas I where there are deep drop-offs, tree stumps, and the . submerged creek channel are the best locations to fish for largemouth bass. I These same areas are likely to produ~e some fair \ fishing action for crappie anglers. · Southwest Ohio Stonelick Lake - Most largemQuth .!>ass _rne,asure 10 to 13 inches, but some of the largest fish in the lake can weigh up to seven pounds. Areas that have drop- off points, aquatic vegetation, and submerged structures generally are the best places to cast surface plug.;, small spinners, and soft plastic baits. Bluegills are numerous, but small in SIZe. These fish cari be taken from most shoreline areas on wax worms and mealworms.

WILDLIFE PRESERVATION . i~ Groundwork for today's programs laid BY JOHN WISIE ODNR, DIVISION OF WILDLIFE In the mid-19th century, Ohio lawmakers baa recognized the need for protecting the diversity of wildlife species present in the state. In 1857, the state's first wildlife diversity law was passed that afforded protection from the . intentional injury or death ofany sparrow, robin, bluebird, thrush, mockingbird, swallow, catbird, or cardinal. As time progressed, there became an increasing awareness that natural resources, such as aninuls, fish, trees, plants, rivers, and the like, needed protection and restoration if they were to ever survive. · Additional laws were passed in subsequent decades and a state agency was created to manage the natural resources of the state. Among the many areas of responsibility now shared by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and its Division ofWildlife is the enhancement of wildlife diversity. Today's wildlife diversity program can trace its roots back to 1857, but more recently to passage of the state's endangered _wildlife law that was enacted in 1973. This law afforded even more protection along with federal· laws that have given new attention and ilirectioii- to wildlife diversity nunagement. .. In 1983, legislation was passed that created a special state .income tax "JUNK MAN" MANLEY - . A plaque was presented to Walt Manley by the Athens Shrine in appreciation of his special contributions to the Tabloid Fund which goes to support the Shriners Children's Hospital in Cincinnati. It reads "Presented to Walton "Junk Man" Manley in appreciation of your untiring dedication to Shrine Tabloid Day." (Charlene Hoeflich photo) . checkoff program. Through this program Ohio taxpayers have contributed millions of dollars for wildlife diversity management projects and the protection of scenic rivers, plants, and other wildlife species. The Division ofWildlife, as part of its wildlife diversity management goals, has sought to reintroduce certain wildlife species that once were present in the state but were extirpated, or became absent for various reasons over the course of Ohio's nearly 200-year history. River otters, ospreys, peregrine falcons, trumpeter swans, Karner blue butterflies, American burying beetles, pirate perch and snowshoe hares are among those species that have beenreintroduced. Wildlife populations that have been protected and restored have included bald eagles, barn owls, Eastern Plains garter snakes, Western banded killifish, paddlefish, freshwater mussels, brook trout, and lake sturgeon . The Ohio Wildlife Diversity and Endangered Species program funds also have enabled the Division ofWildlife to form partnerships with Ohio zoos that have included the creation of exhibits, displays, and curr_icull!m to educate the public about Ohio's native wildlife. A wetlands, migratory songbird, and reptile exhibits were developed in partnership with Columbus Zoo. The Otter Creek and bald eagle exhibits were developed in part- the 19th Century ner'ship with the Cincinnati Zoo. The Wolf Woods exhibit and the trumpeter swan reintroduction project have been developed through partnership with the Cleveland Zoo. The Backyard Birds and Frog Town, USA exhibits were developed in p~rtnership with theToledo Zoo. Tl\e Division ofWildlife has produced and distributed various publications and educational materials to further educate thepublic about O~Q's wildlife diversity. Most notable among these is the Ohio Wildlife Viewing Guide, developed through a national program known as Watchable Wildlife. The viewing guide provides wildlife viewing information and profiles of79 designated viewing sites around the state. Funding for these and other wildlife diversity program projects has come mainly from taxpayer contribptions through the state income tax checkoff program. · Additional revenues, which are used exclusively for wildlife diversity projects, come from sales of the cardinal and bald eagle license plates. · · Meigs man's rec:yclin ~fforts pay off for suffering -c ildren "•' BY cfHA'RUNE.HIJEPUCH TIME5-SENTINEL STAFF OHO FISH REPORT.

No new toons are on the schedule. R.I.P. , toon trend . It's over. Fini. At least, until the inevitable rebirth. Make no mistake: Animation remains alive and well on broadcast television at other times of the day, and on cable networks, where the mons can cater co narrower and savvier audience segments. Prime time's cartoon craze was its own undoing, as crazes usually are. On TY, there's never enough of anything new and different until it's old and all the same. Which brings us to the reality craze. "Scores of reality producers have been given a golden ticket into the network suites to pitch their rake on the new hot mix of reality and voyeurism," reports Variety, the show-biz weekly. Broadcasting & Cable magazine echoes that "the rush to get in line for the next 'Survivor' or' Big Brother' has sent Hollywood into a tizzy." You call THIS reality? Wouldn 't "unscripted" be more accurate? But call it what you will, it's mighty big at the moment. It also see!lli an ·out-and-out retreat from everything that coons represent. Animation has license to bend reality beyond recognition. On the other hand, the unscripted showS - whether a game like "Millionaire" or voyeur-vision like "Survivor" and "Big Brother" - pledge to give you reality straight. Unfiltered.

No new toons are on the schedule. R.I.P. , toon trend . It's over. Fini. At least, until the inevitable rebirth. Make no mistake: Animation remains alive and well on broadcast television at other times of the day, and on cable networks, where the mons can cater co narrower and savvier audience segments. Prime time's cartoon craze was its own undoing, as crazes usually are. On TY, there's never enough of anything new and different until it's old and all the same. Which brings us to the reality craze. "Scores of reality producers have been given a golden ticket into the network suites to pitch their rake on the new hot mix of reality and voyeurism," reports Variety, the show-biz weekly. Broadcasting & Cable magazine echoes that "the rush to get in line for the next 'Survivor' or' Big Brother' has sent Hollywood into a tizzy." You call THIS reality? Wouldn 't "unscripted" be more accurate? But call it what you will, it's mighty big at the moment. It also see!lli an ·out-and-out retreat from everything that coons represent. Animation has license to bend reality beyond recognition. On the other hand, the unscripted showS - whether a game like "Millionaire" or voyeur-vision like "Survivor" and "Big Brother" - pledge to give you reality straight. Unfiltered.

A lo ngstandin g c ritic of the Vatican 's handling o f the secre t, the Fatima Center of Fo rt Erie, Ontar io, said o n irs Web site that th e latest interp retatio n was a " whirewash." It said th e account had " nothing to do with Pope J o hn Paul II no t being shot dead" by Turkish gu nman M e hmet Ali Agca. The Vati can had an explanation . It was in evitable that John Paul "should see in it his own fate," Ratzinger suggesred in· his written comm entary, noting .thar the pope had come very close to . death and would later say that the Virgin Mary "guided the bullet's path" to spare him. ' "That here a 'm o ther's h and ' had deflected the fatefu l buil et o nly shows once more that th e re is no immu table des tiny, that fairh and praye r are fo rces whi ch can influ±i:e history and that in the e nd prayer is ore powerful than bulle ts and fa ith more po rfu l than armies," R atzinger wrote . As to why the Vatican w aited so long to release the text , R atzinger wa s vaguer. The acc ount, he sa id, was " fuzzy." "I t d idn 't make sense to release indeciph erabl e information th at co uld only lead to confusion," th e Germa n cardlna] said at a news conferen ce. " In the li ght of history you can deciph er th e story." Some have suggested that the Vatican feared repercussions beca use of the antiSoviet tone of the Fatima ph enomenon. Be rtone, Ratzin ger's assistant, said in a newspaper intervi ew that some still felt it was pre n1ature to release it "but that the pope had rightly believed the time had come." , Despite ail - th e fuss its secrecy dearly helped create, the Vati ca n took a further step back . It said such privat e revelations as Fatima are helpful bur rh e faithful are not obliged to believe them. "It should be kept in' mind that prophecy in the biblical sense does not mean to predict the future but to explain the will of God for th e present, and therefore to show the right path to rake for the future," Ratzinger said.

For Manley, it 's his concern for the children that gets him out walking up and down the road picking up cans and searching around for other things that can be sold at the recycle center.

A lo ngstandin g c ritic of the Vatican 's handling o f the secre t, the Fatima Center of Fo rt Erie, Ontar io, said o n irs Web site that th e latest interp retatio n was a " whirewash." It said th e account had " nothing to do with Pope J o hn Paul II no t being shot dead" by Turkish gu nman M e hmet Ali Agca. The Vati can had an explanation . It was in evitable that John Paul "should see in it his own fate," Ratzinger suggesred in· his written comm entary, noting .thar the pope had come very close to . death and would later say that the Virgin Mary "guided the bullet's path" to spare him. ' "That here a 'm o ther's h and ' had deflected the fatefu l buil et o nly shows once more that th e re is no immu table des tiny, that fairh and praye r are fo rces whi ch can influ±i:e history and that in the e nd prayer is ore powerful than bulle ts and fa ith more po rfu l than armies," R atzinger wrote . As to why the Vatican w aited so long to release the text , R atzinger wa s vaguer. The acc ount, he sa id, was " fuzzy." "I t d idn 't make sense to release indeciph erabl e information th at co uld only lead to confusion," th e Germa n cardlna] said at a news conferen ce. " In the li ght of history you can deciph er th e story." Some have suggested that the Vatican feared repercussions beca use of the antiSoviet tone of the Fatima ph enomenon. Be rtone, Ratzin ger's assistant, said in a newspaper intervi ew that some still felt it was pre n1ature to release it "but that the pope had rightly believed the time had come." , Despite ail - th e fuss its secrecy dearly helped create, the Vati ca n took a further step back . It said such privat e revelations as Fatima are helpful bur rh e faithful are not obliged to believe them. "It should be kept in' mind that prophecy in the biblical sense does not mean to predict the future but to explain the will of God for th e present, and therefore to show the right path to rake for the future," Ratzinger said.

Subcribe today: 446-2342 or One of the more interesting families in early Gallia County history was the Cadot clan. Claudius Cadot, one of the · "French 500" who came to Gallipolis in October, 1790, married Jane Bastine in early 1790 in Paris, France. The couple's first child Louisa was born in Gallipolis January 28, 1791. She was the first child born in Gallipolis. In 1793 Claudius was born and in 1795 came Lemuel. The elder Cadot died in the middle 1790's and his widow and three small children moved to the French Grant (Scioto County, Ohio) . The Cadot family's great benefactor became Francis Dutiel as he employed young Claudius and eventually Lemuel. 1\vo of Lemuel's sons, J .J. Cadot and L.Z. Cadot became well known businessmen in Gallipolis in the 1850's and .1860's. The brothers were partners in the building trades business during the boom years for construction in Gallipolis (late 1850's to late ' 1860's). With the profits made in this business,].]. erected ,what was then the largest house in Gallipolis on Fourth Avenue. The house was built in 1866 and placed in his wife's name. In 1856 J.J. had made Mary Cohen of Pomeroy his bride. Four children grew up in the great Victqrian house. The children eventually scattered to Chicago, PillSburgh and Toledo and the house came under the ownership of banker Charles Henking. Perhaps the mnst interesting of the Cadots was · the Clauruus Cadot who was born in Gallipolis on February 17, 1793. Claudius' life up until 1812 was .. - fairly totlline as ne worked as i fa.rmer and in the Dutiel distillery.

Here FAMILY COLUMN '(;ALLIPOLIS - The humidity that settled in last W(ekend reminded me that the fair is just around the corner and we are in the dog days of sununer. With heat and humidity rising, now is the time to think aoout heat stress and exhaustion. Picnics, 'parades, biking, hiking, gardening, going to the fair, and a host of other summer activities can put . ~ at risk. In fact, anyone who lives in a warm or seasonably warm climate or works in hot, humid places ca~ be affected by heat stress. f.Ieat stress and exhaustion occur when your body cajlnot sweat enough to cool off. Generally, it happens wlien we work, play or exemse in hot weather. Tb,ough heat stress can be very serious, it is prevetlUble. Symptoms indud~ fatigue, ruzziness, nausea and weakness. The bndy tries to keep its inner temperature at :Or about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. The amount and speed ofheat gain or loss partially depends on the temp«ature of the air and surtounrung objects, air movement and humidity. As the internal body heat rises, surface blond vessels get bigger and the pulse rate goes up, putting a strain oq the heart and circulatory system. When more blood is pumped close to the skin for cooling, less blood goes to'the brain. This a!ID accounts for the briglu red skin cdor that comes when we are very warm. Usually, the air temperature around you helps cool the body.Ifthe surrounding temperature is hotter than the skin temperature (as it can often be in a stuffy ba'm), the body will gain heat instead of losing It. Sweating may become the body's only cooling ~nd. Excessive sweating may cause loss of body flu id$ and minerals. Most people will lose about a quart of sweat an hour while working in extreme heat. This puts even more strain on the bndy because as the body loses moisn!fe, blood becomes more co ncc ntr:lted and less efficient in doing its work. Surface bloo co! ~Is that enlarged to cool the blond can collapse fiOm loss of bndy fluids and minerals. Heat exhaustion sometimes can lead to heat stroke, ~cularly in older adults. Heat stroke occurs when the body stop, sweating, even though the body tcm· peratUre continu~ to rise_ It can cause pernunt!nt <b}nage to the central nervous system or death. Heat stioke is a medical emerge ncy requiring immediate . a~ntion. . . . . Prevention always IS the best line of defense. H ere arc ,,• Becky Collins ACCORDING.

Do outdoor chores in early morning and evening hours. • Wear light-colored,loose-firting clothing to reflect the sun.

Subcribe today: 446-2342 or One of the more interesting families in early Gallia County history was the Cadot clan. Claudius Cadot, one of the · "French 500" who came to Gallipolis in October, 1790, married Jane Bastine in early 1790 in Paris, France. The couple's first child Louisa was born in Gallipolis January 28, 1791. She was the first child born in Gallipolis. In 1793 Claudius was born and in 1795 came Lemuel. The elder Cadot died in the middle 1790's and his widow and three small children moved to the French Grant (Scioto County, Ohio) . The Cadot family's great benefactor became Francis Dutiel as he employed young Claudius and eventually Lemuel. 1\vo of Lemuel's sons, J .J. Cadot and L.Z. Cadot became well known businessmen in Gallipolis in the 1850's and .1860's. The brothers were partners in the building trades business during the boom years for construction in Gallipolis (late 1850's to late ' 1860's). With the profits made in this business,].]. erected ,what was then the largest house in Gallipolis on Fourth Avenue. The house was built in 1866 and placed in his wife's name. In 1856 J.J. had made Mary Cohen of Pomeroy his bride. Four children grew up in the great Victqrian house. The children eventually scattered to Chicago, PillSburgh and Toledo and the house came under the ownership of banker Charles Henking. Perhaps the mnst interesting of the Cadots was · the Clauruus Cadot who was born in Gallipolis on February 17, 1793. Claudius' life up until 1812 was .. - fairly totlline as ne worked as i fa.rmer and in the Dutiel distillery. In 1812 Governor Meigs issued a call for volunteers to defend the fiontier from Indian atuck. It will be remembered Get ready for your wedding day with some beauty basics that won 't let you down.

Here FAMILY COLUMN '(;ALLIPOLIS - The humidity that settled in last W(ekend reminded me that the fair is just around the corner and we are in the dog days of sununer. With heat and humidity rising, now is the time to think aoout heat stress and exhaustion. Picnics, 'parades, biking, hiking, gardening, going to the fair, and a host of other summer activities can put . ~ at risk. In fact, anyone who lives in a warm or seasonably warm climate or works in hot, humid places ca~ be affected by heat stress. f.Ieat stress and exhaustion occur when your body cajlnot sweat enough to cool off. Generally, it happens wlien we work, play or exemse in hot weather. Tb,ough heat stress can be very serious, it is prevetlUble. Symptoms indud~ fatigue, ruzziness, nausea and weakness. The bndy tries to keep its inner temperature at :Or about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. The amount and speed ofheat gain or loss partially depends on the temp«ature of the air and surtounrung objects, air movement and humidity. As the internal body heat rises, surface blond vessels get bigger and the pulse rate goes up, putting a strain oq the heart and circulatory system. When more blood is pumped close to the skin for cooling, less blood goes to'the brain. This a!ID accounts for the briglu red skin cdor that comes when we are very warm. Usually, the air temperature around you helps cool the body.Ifthe surrounding temperature is hotter than the skin temperature (as it can often be in a stuffy ba'm), the body will gain heat instead of losing It. Sweating may become the body's only cooling ~nd. Excessive sweating may cause loss of body flu id$ and minerals. Most people will lose about a quart of sweat an hour while working in extreme heat. This puts even more strain on the bndy because as the body loses moisn!fe, blood becomes more co ncc ntr:lted and less efficient in doing its work. Surface bloo co! ~Is that enlarged to cool the blond can collapse fiOm loss of bndy fluids and minerals. Heat exhaustion sometimes can lead to heat stroke, ~cularly in older adults. Heat stroke occurs when the body stop, sweating, even though the body tcm· peratUre continu~ to rise_ It can cause pernunt!nt <b}nage to the central nervous system or death. Heat stioke is a medical emerge ncy requiring immediate . a~ntion. . . . . Prevention always IS the best line of defense. H ere arc ,,• Becky Collins ACCORDING.

One letter was from a woman who decided to be more aggressive. The man she had her eye on worked in her field. She saw him at business meetings, but he never asked her out. One day, she decided to invite him to the theater when a co-worker gave her a pair of tickets she was unable to usc. That date led to marriage. A shOrt lime after reading that letter in your column, a co-worker offered me a pair of theater tickets she was unable to use. I thought, "This must be a sign from above."

This letter came from Boston: · Dear Ann Landers: I am a 41-year-old woman who has been reading your column in The Boston - Globe ·since I ·was a child. I was especially interested in the "how we met" letters because I never seemed to meet a man who took an interest in me. Those letters gave me hop·e. One letter was from a woman who decided to be more aggressive. The man she had her eye on worked in her field. She saw him at business meetings, but he never asked her out. One day, she decided to invite him to the theater when a co-worker gave her a pair of tickets she was unable to usc. That date led to marriage. A shOrt lime after reading that letter in your column, a co-worker offered me a pair of theater tickets she was unable to use. I thought, "This must be a sign from above." I asked a man I knew · casually (and worshipped from afar) if he would ·like to go with me to the theater, since I had an extra ticket. That was seven months ago. We are getting married next month.

General Electric World Famous Men Las Vegas L.A. & New York · Business expo coming to Gallipolis THE WEEK IN STOCKS One of the industry's biggest ch allenges is the uniformiry of beef products and quality consistency. Traditionally, eating beef has been a less predictable experience than eati ng pork and poultry, whose industri es have bee n able to develop uniform ed quality products through carefu l and narrow geneti c se lecti on. To hel p overcome th e unpredi ctable quality of important cuts of be ef, two <eientlsts at the Ohio Agricultural Research and· Development Center in Wooster have developed a DNA test for beef cattle I hat may predi ct an animal's potential for tenderness. The new te st will determine a beef animal's ,potential for either high marbling or very little marbling. . 1Jevelopment O'nd widespread usc of such a t est co uld impat:t the beef industry profoundly. Natural ly, cow-calf prod ucers wou!J use bulls that test positive for significant marbHng and tenderne's pote ntial. GUEST COLUMNIST do not have the genetic abiltry to marble well and produce tender products. Field tnals using this test will be conducted over th e next few years with suppo rt from the American Angus Association and the. Certified Angus Beef Program. Following the trials , researchers would make thi s test available to all beef prod ucers for approximately SI0 per head.

(AP) reauve accounting techmques are ad~mg to the difficulty of evaluatmg the financial health of technology companies, analysts say:'f!tat isn't helping the sec tor, espe~tally with second-quarter e~nnngs reports around the corIler. . A decision by Intel Corp. to !nclude one-time investment gains m Us upcoming results has confounded Wall Street insiders and caused investors to howl about the htgh-tech havoc. Meanwhile, business software companies Computer Associates International Inc . and BMC Software Inc. warned this week they will fall well short of analysts' expectations, pulling technology stocks lower. Competitor Compuware Cor:p. followed Fnday with its own dismal outlook. · "It's becoming harder to compare apples to apples in the hightech intlustry," said analyst Robert Johnson at ABN Amro Inc. in Chicago. "It's just a massive problem for investors today in the t<;J:hnology field to compare comVi!ny to company. Because of the i~tellectual capital nature of their pr.oducts, there are so many que stions and more room for flexibil i\~ on the reporting side than other. industries.·· :: But the ability to show const~ntly improving quarterly figures appears to be getting hander. More than half of the 300 U.S. fiims that have released pre_-eamiriiS guidance to Wall Street have issued profit warnings for the th(l:e months ending June 30, &ccording to First Callffhomson Fipancial. •Analysts already had been expecting a comparison to last year to be difficult. Many compaities went on a buying spree in the comparable quaner last year wllen technology officers ·took adyantage of corporate CEOs isS)ling blank checks for Y2K prep~dness. !-feanwhile, spending on tech- nologyinEurope thi syear hasnot nsen as fast as many had expected. Johnson noted. Wa ll Street has come to expect that technology companies will be con~ervati ve in the ir ·profit forecasts, using legal accounting maneu vers and ot her means to help match or beat est imates. The entire technology sec tor is expected to post 37 perce nt profit growth in the quarter. . In stead. in vestors returned fro m the Independe nce Day holi day weekend to warnrngs that Islandia, N. Y-based Computer Associates and Houst on. Tx .based BMC Software wi ll badly, mrs s ana lysts' earn in gs cx pectatinn s. Both co mpani es c ited lowerthan-expected demand fur the mainframe computers in which they supply software . The trend has affected the entire indus.trv because 'tnany customers ha v~ de lay ed ne w purchases until they hear detail s on shipments and pricingof a ne w IBM mainframe expected later this year, analysts said. Investors responded by pounding shares of both companies on Wednesday, with Computer Associates plummeting 42 percent and BMC off 40 percent. The warning raised fears that other technology companies wi ll also issue disappointing results when the earnings repotting season goes into full gear in the next several days . The nega_tive outlooks contin' ued Friday, when Farmington Hills, Mich .-based Compuware said that poor sales of software would cause it to miss expectalions. On the opposite end, Intel raised eyebrows late last month after the Santa Clara. Calif-based chipmaker announced it would include a total of $2.3 billion in investment gai ns in second-q6arter results due July 18. Many companies and research firms traditionally excl ude onetime gains from the sale of in vest- ment s. but Intel 's decision will allow it to report per-share profits doubl ed in the year-over-year period in stead of posting a more modest increase. "Alth ough we've been includmg Inte l's guidance on in vestment gai ns in our estimates, it just doesn't seem right to do .so as the num1 ber gets to be this obscene. " analyst Terry Ragsdale of J.P Morgan Securities Inc. wrote ina June 21 repor1 . Still, massag ing numbers has made reading earnings reports more di ffi10ult for year. Other technology companies, including Yahoo' Inc. and Norte! Networks, have gotten into the practice of excluding costs of acquiring other companies - particularly if including them would result in an operating loss. Intel spokesman Chuck Mullcy suggested the problem lies not with companies but with Wall Street investors wanting few surprises - unless they're good ones - when earnings are actually announced. "We're not trying to play games, we're trying to make sure everybody understands that the guidance we gave was low and we have higher numbers coming in," Mulloy said. "All we're trying to go is give the investor a sense of what we expect to ·happen during the quarter," he said. Analysts remain optimistic this will be a good year for many technology companis:s. Internet network equipmehi provider Cisco Systems Inc., for instance, still expects revenue growth thi s year in the 30 percent to 50 percent range. said spokesman Tom Galvin .

Bobby Grubbs, one of the Rangers who helped gather evidence including the fuel cam after the deadly fire, testified that Clive Doyle, one of nine people who escaped, told him the blaze was started with Coleman fuel that was distributed throughout the compound. When asked if he knew who started it, Boyle refused to answer the question, Grubbs testified. "I felt he had information ; he just wouldn't give it to us," Grubbs said. About 80 Branch . Davidians and leader David Koresh died - some from fire, others from gunshots - when the.ir compound went up in flames on April 19, 1993, at the end of their 51-day standoff with federal agents. Fire investigators have said one of three blazes that day started in the dining room area, and the government was using Grubbs' testimony to support its contention that the Branch Davidian< were suicidal and started the fires themselves. Davidian survivors and relatives of those who were killed in the standoff claim in their $675 million wrongful death lawsuit that federal agents contributed to or caused at least some of the fires . A fire expert hired by the plaintiffS has ~testifi6d that tanks used in an ·FBI tear-gassing operation on the final day turned the compound into kindling by punching holes in the walls, allowing wind gusts to feed the flames.

(AP) reauve accounting techmques are ad~mg to the difficulty of evaluatmg the financial health of technology companies, analysts say:'f!tat isn't helping the sec tor, espe~tally with second-quarter e~nnngs reports around the corIler. . A decision by Intel Corp. to !nclude one-time investment gains m Us upcoming results has confounded Wall Street insiders and caused investors to howl about the htgh-tech havoc. Meanwhile, business software companies Computer Associates International Inc . and BMC Software Inc. warned this week they will fall well short of analysts' expectations, pulling technology stocks lower. Competitor Compuware Cor:p. followed Fnday with its own dismal outlook. · "It's becoming harder to compare apples to apples in the hightech intlustry," said analyst Robert Johnson at ABN Amro Inc. in Chicago. "It's just a massive problem for investors today in the t<;J:hnology field to compare comVi!ny to company. Because of the i~tellectual capital nature of their pr.oducts, there are so many que stions and more room for flexibil i\~ on the reporting side than other. industries.·· :: But the ability to show const~ntly improving quarterly figures appears to be getting hander. More than half of the 300 U.S. fiims that have released pre_-eamiriiS guidance to Wall Street have issued profit warnings for the th(l:e months ending June 30, &ccording to First Callffhomson Fipancial. •Analysts already had been expecting a comparison to last year to be difficult.

Johnson noted. Wa ll Street has come to expect that technology companies will be con~ervati ve in the ir ·profit forecasts, using legal accounting maneu vers and ot her means to help match or beat est imates. The entire technology sec tor is expected to post 37 perce nt profit growth in the quarter. . In stead. in vestors returned fro m the Independe nce Day holi day weekend to warnrngs that Islandia, N. Y-based Computer Associates and Houst on. Tx .based BMC Software wi ll badly, mrs s ana lysts' earn in gs cx pectatinn s. Both co mpani es c ited lowerthan-expected demand fur the mainframe computers in which they supply software . The trend has affected the entire indus.trv because 'tnany customers ha v~ de lay ed ne w purchases until they hear detail s on shipments and pricingof a ne w IBM mainframe expected later this year, analysts said. Investors responded by pounding shares of both companies on Wednesday, with Computer Associates plummeting 42 percent and BMC off 40 percent. The warning raised fears that other technology companies wi ll also issue disappointing results when the earnings repotting season goes into full gear in the next several days . The nega_tive outlooks contin' ued Friday, when Farmington Hills, Mich .-based Compuware said that poor sales of software would cause it to miss expectalions. On the opposite end, Intel raised eyebrows late last month after the Santa Clara. Calif-based chipmaker announced it would include a total of $2.3 billion in investment gai ns in second-q6arter results due July 18. Many companies and research firms traditionally excl ude onetime gains from the sale of in vest- ment s. but Intel 's decision will allow it to report per-share profits doubl ed in the year-over-year period in stead of posting a more modest increase. "Alth ough we've been includmg Inte l's guidance on in vestment gai ns in our estimates, it just doesn't seem right to do .so as the num1 ber gets to be this obscene. " analyst Terry Ragsdale of J.P Morgan Securities Inc. wrote ina June 21 repor1 . Still, massag ing numbers has made reading earnings reports more di ffi10ult for year. Other technology companies, including Yahoo' Inc. and Norte! Networks, have gotten into the practice of excluding costs of acquiring other companies - particularly if including them would result in an operating loss. Intel spokesman Chuck Mullcy suggested the problem lies not with companies but with Wall Street investors wanting few surprises - unless they're good ones - when earnings are actually announced. "We're not trying to play games, we're trying to make sure everybody understands that the guidance we gave was low and we have higher numbers coming in," Mulloy said. "All we're trying to go is give the investor a sense of what we expect to ·happen during the quarter," he said. Analysts remain optimistic this will be a good year for many technology companis:s. Internet network equipmehi provider Cisco Systems Inc., for instance, still expects revenue growth thi s year in the 30 percent to 50 percent range. said spokesman Tom Galvin .

Bobby Grubbs, one of the Rangers who helped gather evidence including the fuel cam after the deadly fire, testified that Clive Doyle, one of nine people who escaped, told him the blaze was started with Coleman fuel that was distributed throughout the compound. When asked if he knew who started it, Boyle refused to answer the question, Grubbs testified. "I felt he had information ; he just wouldn't give it to us," Grubbs said. About 80 Branch . Davidians and leader David Koresh died - some from fire, others from gunshots - when the.ir compound went up in flames on April 19, 1993, at the end of their 51-day standoff with federal agents. Fire investigators have said one of three blazes that day started in the dining room area, and the government was using Grubbs' testimony to support its contention that the Branch Davidian< were suicidal and started the fires themselves. Davidian survivors and relatives of those who were killed in the standoff claim in their $675 million wrongful death lawsuit that federal agents contributed to or caused at least some of the fires . A fire expert hired by the plaintiffS has ~testifi6d that tanks used in an ·FBI tear-gassing operation on the final day turned the compound into kindling by punching holes in the walls, allowing wind gusts to feed the flames.

He is a director on the Gallia County Canlemen's Association and in the Ohio Angus Association. "When I was in 4-H they didn't have show feed and no one helped me, so I decided then that when I w.is older, I'd" do anything to help those kids;' said Neal.

After several years of declining quota and tough production, this . week, many producers received a small award for all they've put up with recently. If you did not receive your Tobacco Loss Assistance Program check last week in the mail, give it another week and then call ODA at 1-800-282-1955 and ask to speak with the office of Ohio Tobacco Programs. Pepper producers/ corn borer trap counts: Gallia County has four European Corn Borer traps around the .county and thus far the moth counts have been very low and no sprayjng is warranted. We expect a surge in moth coun~ at the end of the month, which would indicate egg • laying and the need to begin the .spray program. Please loQk for a detailed spray schedule in the mail next week, and continue to consult the Ag News section of this article as well as the bulletin boards at any of the four cooperating businesses, including Altizer's Farm Supply, Pope and Pope, The Trading Post and Owsley's.
