SI09.n • Rio Grande swim team enters competition with confidence BY KRIS DOTSON TIMES-SENTINEL STAFF RIO GRANDE- New uniforms are providing the University of Rio Grande swim team with a shot of confidence as it prepares for the West Virginia Championship in Athens this weekend . "It's a small advantage the other teams would have when they would walk into a meet in uniform - it's an air of confidence that our kids will now have," said parent Cindy Wolfe. "We would like to thank those businesses that contributed to the uniforms.They are Farmers Bank of Gallipolis, Dr. E. John Strauss, Dominos Pizza of Jackson Pike, Holzer Clinic, Smith Buick, Kroger, Norris Northup, Wiseman Agenc y, Rockwell and Bill McClure," she added. A misconception that people might have about dub is that it consists of college students because of the university's name. This team is open to the public for children ages 8 to 18. And it offers a two-week trial period without dues to make sure the child likes it and is willing to make the commitment. Team members practice Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:30-6:30 p.m. and on Saturday mornings at the Lyne Center swimming pooL The program began in !996, started by group of parents whose kids swam for the Gallipolis City Swim Team under the direction of Kim Canaday. These parents and Jqds wanted year-round swimming and a competitive team to rival those in major cities, so they contacted Bruce McFadden, the head coach of the Athens Swim dub. McPadden let them swim with his club for experience, which evolved into a satellite program called South Eastern Aquatic Stingrays. They had relay teams composed of members from both clubs who competed in Columbus, Cincinnati and Charleston. "In 1998, we decided we had enough memben to form our own team, the URG Swim Club, and began training at the Rio Grande pool," said Wolfe. The team's record is impressive for such a young team. Xiao Sun placed second in the 50 meter freestyle swim in the 1999 Goodwill games in Atlanta, and took first for the I 00 meter freestyle in the West Virginia Long Course Championship. Laura Sojka was a member of the Ohio Zone Team in 1998 and walked away with two silver medals, having competed This team is open to the public for children ages 8 to 18. And it l?.flers a two-week trial period without dues to make sure the child likes it and is willing to make the commitment. against the best swimmers from eight other states. She also took sixth and 15th places at the 1999 international swim meet at the Swimming Hall of Fame in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and lirst for the 100 meter breast stroke in the WVLC Championship. "We feel really secure now that we have Dr. Tom and Heidi Blodgett as our coaches and Assistant Coach Regina Rhodes," said Wolfe. "All three are in the medical field too. Tom is a dermatologist, Heidi is a nurse and Regina program. The Madog Center has made it possible to bring visiting professors from Wales. Dr. Walford Davies came to Rio Grande during the 1999-2000 school year. She is also working to bring another Wels h student to' Rio Grande for the upcoming sc hool year. • :BUCKEYE BRIEF-S • Crash leaves three dead works in the lab," she added.

Forty-three states allow carrying concealed weapons, including Ken tucky and Indiana near Cincinnati.

An attorney for Sam lteese · Sheppard, the doctor's son, filed an appeal notice late Friday aftc'fc noon in a state appeals court. A detailed legal brief with the Sheppard team's arguments fo'r a new wrongful imprisonment triaJ will follow in the next tew months. The appeal comes after a trial earlier rhis year in Cuyahoga County Conu11on Pleas Court that took more than three months. Sam Reese Sheppard claimed his father was wrongfully imprisoned for a decade for his mother's slaying early on July 4, 1954, at th e family's home on Lake Erie. After three hours of deliber.~­ tions, the jury ruled the doctor could not be proven innocent by the greater weight o f the evidence - the legal standard in Ohio wrongful in1pri somnent -cases.

SI09.n • Rio Grande swim team enters competition with confidence BY KRIS DOTSON TIMES-SENTINEL STAFF RIO GRANDE- New uniforms are providing the University of Rio Grande swim team with a shot of confidence as it prepares for the West Virginia Championship in Athens this weekend . "It's a small advantage the other teams would have when they would walk into a meet in uniform - it's an air of confidence that our kids will now have," said parent Cindy Wolfe. "We would like to thank those businesses that contributed to the uniforms.They are Farmers Bank of Gallipolis, Dr. E. John Strauss, Dominos Pizza of Jackson Pike, Holzer Clinic, Smith Buick, Kroger, Norris Northup, Wiseman Agenc y, Rockwell and Bill McClure," she added. A misconception that people might have about dub is that it consists of college students because of the university's name. This team is open to the public for children ages 8 to 18. And it offers a two-week trial period without dues to make sure the child likes it and is willing to make the commitment. Team members practice Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:30-6:30 p.m. and on Saturday mornings at the Lyne Center swimming pooL The program began in !996, started by group of parents whose kids swam for the Gallipolis City Swim Team under the direction of Kim Canaday. These parents and Jqds wanted year-round swimming and a competitive team to rival those in major cities, so they contacted Bruce McFadden, the head coach of the Athens Swim dub. McPadden let them swim with his club for experience, which evolved into a satellite program called South Eastern Aquatic Stingrays. They had relay teams composed of members from both clubs who competed in Columbus, Cincinnati and Charleston. "In 1998, we decided we had enough memben to form our own team, the URG Swim Club, and began training at the Rio Grande pool," said Wolfe. The team's record is impressive for such a young team. Xiao Sun placed second in the 50 meter freestyle swim in the 1999 Goodwill games in Atlanta, and took first for the I 00 meter freestyle in the West Virginia Long Course Championship. Laura Sojka was a member of the Ohio Zone Team in 1998 and walked away with two silver medals, having competed This team is open to the public for children ages 8 to 18. And it l?.flers a two-week trial period without dues to make sure the child likes it and is willing to make the commitment. against the best swimmers from eight other states. She also took sixth and 15th places at the 1999 international swim meet at the Swimming Hall of Fame in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and lirst for the 100 meter breast stroke in the WVLC Championship. "We feel really secure now that we have Dr. Tom and Heidi Blodgett as our coaches and Assistant Coach Regina Rhodes," said Wolfe. "All three are in the medical field too. Tom is a dermatologist, Heidi is a nurse and Regina program. The Madog Center has made it possible to bring visiting professors from Wales. Dr. Walford Davies came to Rio Grande during the 1999-2000 school year. She is also working to bring another Wels h student to' Rio Grande for the upcoming sc hool year. • :BUCKEYE BRIEF-S • Crash leaves three dead works in the lab," she added.

Lamar Smith, R-Texas, who heads the Subcommittee on lmntigration and Claims, warned in a letter, " It would be, irresponSible for the House to enact these provisions without the conunittee of primary jurisdiction's ca refuf review." Smith opposes allowing a costly claim against the government to be slipped quickly into law without full consideration, said spokesman Allen Kay. Smith's subcommittee has scheduled a Sept. 14 hearing.

An attorney for Sam lteese · Sheppard, the doctor's son, filed an appeal notice late Friday aftc'fc noon in a state appeals court. A detailed legal brief with the Sheppard team's arguments fo'r a new wrongful imprisonment triaJ will follow in the next tew months. The appeal comes after a trial earlier rhis year in Cuyahoga County Conu11on Pleas Court that took more than three months. Sam Reese Sheppard claimed his father was wrongfully imprisoned for a decade for his mother's slaying early on July 4, 1954, at th e family's home on Lake Erie. After three hours of deliber.~­ tions, the jury ruled the doctor could not be proven innocent by the greater weight o f the evidence - the legal standard in Ohio wrongful in1pri somnent -cases. The jury was not asked to decide whether the doctor was guilty of Marilyn Sheppard's murder. Sam Reese Sheppard, 53, has worked for 11 years to win exonlTatJOil fur his father and to use his f.11nily's experience to draw attention to what he sees as a flawed justice system m the United States. He ~1 id he was drained by the wrongfu l imprisonment tr ial but felt compelled to file an appeal.

The recall of Gerry TrailTech backpack baby carriers was annou~d by Hufco-Delaware Co., of Miamisburg, Ohio. The comp{ny said the carriers, worn on an adult's back, were sold in department and baby product stores nationwide between January 1996 and July 2000, for about $65 each. The recalled carriers have black, plastic frames; there were sold in color combinations that include slate blue with teal trim and green with black trim. People who purchased them should stop uSing the carriers, the U.S. Consumer Product Safery Commission said. Consumers can get a free repair kit, which replaces the carrier seat with smaller leg openings, by calling the manufacturer at 1800-881-9176 .. ~ The government and the company said there were four reports of infants slipping through the leg openings. Two of the babies skulls' were fractured; the two others bumped their heads when they fell to the ground. ·In June 1999, Hufco-Delaware, and Vandalia, Ohio-based Evenflo Co.

But on Friday, a report to Congress from the Federal Trade Commission said the stricter clean -air rules for the nation's smoggiest cities "seem unlikely ... to provide a complete explanation for recent Midwestern gas price increas- es..'' The state ment came in an FTC status report on its investigation mto whether oil ·co mpanies colluded to gouge Midwestern motorists. The FTC estimated it will take until after the November elections to finish work on what has beco me one of the season's hottest political issues. • . "At thiS point. no conclusions , however tenta tive, have been reached," the report said. Gas prices incri'sed thro~ghout the country this sprmg as htgh crude otl pnces led to an unusually tight supply situation. But in Chicago, Milwaukee and Detroit, prices rose well above the $2 mark - as much as 65 cents a gallon above the nationa l average.

The Commerce Department's fi~t look at the gross domestic product - the broadest measure of economic health for the April-June quarter .p rompted President Clinton to hail the "vigorous" economic performance during his rwo terms. Wall Street, however, worried chat the strongerthan-expected growth will increa5e the likelihood that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates for a seventh time when Fed officials next meet on Aug. 22. The Dow Jones indJstrial average lost 7 4. 96 points to close at 10,511.17 , The technology-heavy Nasdaq composite index lost 179.23, extending Thursday's f45-point slide and bringing the week's loss to 431 points or 10.5 percent. , Ctinton used the new GOP figure to preach the benefits of protecting the federal surpluses against Republican-passed measures to cut caxes. . "We should stay on rhe path to fiscal discipline and ,;;,t endanger our prosperiry by passing one expensive taX cut after another," Clinton said on a fund raisingtrip to Rhode Island. The new GOP report confou~ded th<' economic experts, who had widely forecast a slow ing of growth in the second quarter based on a belief that the Fed's previous ra te hikes would cut into consumer. spending, which accounts for two- thirds o f tota l economic activity. Revised figures showed the GOP grew at an annual rate of 4.8 percent in the fi~t three months of tllis year and economists were forecasting· that pace woulo slow to around 3.7 percent in the April-Ju ne qmrter. Consumer spending did slow significantl y in the second quarter, decreasing to an annual rate of just 3 percent, compared to a 17-year high of7.& perce nt in the fi~t quarter. However, this decline was more than offset by a pickup in business investment in computers and othe r equipment, which climbed at an an nual rate of 19. 1 percent. Additionally, businesses upped therr spending on inventories, in part to replenish depleted stockpi les. "The big slowdown in consumer spendi ng was offset by a boom in capiral spending,". said .1\jlen Si_pai, chief economist for Primark Economics in New York. "This was not a soli-landing report.

But on Friday, a report to Congress from the Federal Trade Commission said the stricter clean -air rules for the nation's smoggiest cities "seem unlikely ... to provide a complete explanation for recent Midwestern gas price increas- es..'' The state ment came in an FTC status report on its investigation mto whether oil ·co mpanies colluded to gouge Midwestern motorists. The FTC estimated it will take until after the November elections to finish work on what has beco me one of the season's hottest political issues. • . "At thiS point. no conclusions , however tenta tive, have been reached," the report said. Gas prices incri'sed thro~ghout the country this sprmg as htgh crude otl pnces led to an unusually tight supply situation. But in Chicago, Milwaukee and Detroit, prices rose well above the $2 mark - as much as 65 cents a gallon above the nationa l average. Though Midwestt'rn motori sts now art' lc-eing: prices equal to or lower than the rest of the nation, the May-June spike toll chL·d off c harges and cou ntercharges between Republicans .md Dernocrats eager to woo vott~ rs. GOP leaders mostly blamed a new p h:11e in the Environme ntal Protection Agency's reiormlllated gas program . They said comph catJons 111 making the new blend, especially in Chicago and Milwaukee, where corn-based etlunol is addnl to -make the gas burn cleJ.ncr. were t:XJccrbatt·d when the Clinton administration refused to give tefiners flexib ility in meetin g the new stl ndards Clinton and the Demo crats defended th e· tighter rules, sayi ng their extra cos t - only a few pennies a gallon - co uld not account for th e enormous pri ce differe ntial at the pump. They suggested that oil compan ies might b,• takin g advan tage of the regulatory c hanges to gouge' the public. The FTC launched its formal investiga tio n of those allegations on Jun e 2 1. U.S. economy grows faster than expected ' WASHINGTON (AP) -The supercharged U.S. economy did not cool off as expected in the spring bpt instead g~w at an even faster 5.2 percent rate, P!"'Pelled by stro1,1g business investment and government spending, the government reported Friday. The Commerce Department's fi~t look at the gross domestic product - the broadest measure of economic health for the April-June quarter .p rompted President Clinton to hail the "vigorous" economic performance during his rwo terms. Wall Street, however, worried chat the strongerthan-expected growth will increa5e the likelihood that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates for a seventh time when Fed officials next meet on Aug. 22. The Dow Jones indJstrial average lost 7 4. 96 points to close at 10,511.17 , The technology-heavy Nasdaq composite index lost 179.23, extending Thursday's f45-point slide and bringing the week's loss to 431 points or 10.5 percent. , Ctinton used the new GOP figure to preach the benefits of protecting the federal surpluses against Republican-passed measures to cut caxes. . "We should stay on rhe path to fiscal discipline and ,;;,t endanger our prosperiry by passing one expensive taX cut after another," Clinton said on a fund raisingtrip to Rhode Island. The new GOP report confou~ded th<' economic experts, who had widely forecast a slow ing of growth in the second quarter based on a belief that the Fed's previous ra te hikes would cut into consumer. spending, which accounts for two- thirds o f tota l economic activity. Revised figures showed the GOP grew at an annual rate of 4.8 percent in the fi~t three months of tllis year and economists were forecasting· that pace woulo slow to around 3.7 percent in the April-Ju ne qmrter. Consumer spending did slow significantl y in the second quarter, decreasing to an annual rate of just 3 percent, compared to a 17-year high of7.& perce nt in the fi~t quarter. However, this decline was more than offset by a pickup in business investment in computers and othe r equipment, which climbed at an an nual rate of 19. 1 percent. Additionally, businesses upped therr spending on inventories, in part to replenish depleted stockpi les. "The big slowdown in consumer spendi ng was offset by a boom in capiral spending,". said .1\jlen Si_pai, chief economist for Primark Economics in New York. "This was not a soli-landing report.

American football: A heavyweight matchup understand is the lack of attention Americans give to track and field, because it is quite popular overseas . In fact, our tra c k and field athletes are more popular and better known in Europe than in their own co untry. I remember growing up and watching Bob Hayes, wide receiver for the great Dallas Cowboys teams in the '60s. Announcers took pr ide. in introducing Hayes as "the world's fastest human ." He received that title because of his Olympic record and gold medal. Most of us remember him as a football star and not an Olympic champiqn . Have you seen the commercials about Michael, Marion and Maurice over the past few weeks? NBC was trying its best to get' us ex.cited about track and field . Naturally, when the Olympics begin, we will pay auention to swimming and diving events, the marathon and the javelin toss ; but until' then, most of us are hardpressed to name a star or qualifying competition we care to watch . When Lance a!Jd Tiger were coming up victorious across the pond, the U.S. Olympic Track and Field trials were in full swing in Sacramento. Television tried to hype the 200meter race for almost two weeks in hope of improving ratings and interest in ; this important qualifying event. The winners there will represent us in Sydney. Only the first three qualifiers ofan event will -be allowed to make the trip to Australia. Fans were treated to 10 days of trash talking that would make Spike You know th e i.ndividual who will represent u s in the Sydney games . Yea. John Capel. a form e r Universi ty of Florida football player, won the race in 19 .85 seconds.

' Individual achievements are always noteworthy in sports. Last Sunday was no exception as two Americans, Tiger Woods and Lance Armstrong, captured · two of the most coveted prizes in their respective spor ts . At 24, Woods became the youngesl and fifth player in the history of golf to com pete a career grand slam. Imagine winning the Masters, British Open, PGA Championship and the U.S. Open before th e age of 25? ' Not only did Woods bea t Ernie Els and Thomas Bjorn by eight strokes, but he also broke the record for having the most strokes under par in the history of the British Open. What is more amazing is that this was Tiger's 21st c.eer victory. Al"erican domination of individual competition continued in Paris as Lance Armstrong took the ride, alo ng with the Champs-Elys ses with his second consecutive Tour de France victory. The 28-year-old Armstrong. who was diagnosed with cancer in 1996, _, now hopes to win in the Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia in September. I wonder how the Europeans felt · as Americans continued to dominate the ir premier sp.Orting events? Let's not forget earlier this month Pete Sampras won his record 13 major by winning Wimbledon for the seventh time . Yes, Lennox Lewis is the heavyweight champion, but for Americans, he still has to fight and beat Mike Tyson . "Iron Mike" is a jerk, but he's our jerk. .

American football: A heavyweight matchup understand is the lack of attention Americans give to track and field, because it is quite popular overseas . In fact, our tra c k and field athletes are more popular and better known in Europe than in their own co untry. I remember growing up and watching Bob Hayes, wide receiver for the great Dallas Cowboys teams in the '60s. Announcers took pr ide. in introducing Hayes as "the world's fastest human ." He received that title because of his Olympic record and gold medal. Most of us remember him as a football star and not an Olympic champiqn . Have you seen the commercials about Michael, Marion and Maurice over the past few weeks? NBC was trying its best to get' us ex.cited about track and field . Naturally, when the Olympics begin, we will pay auention to swimming and diving events, the marathon and the javelin toss ; but until' then, most of us are hardpressed to name a star or qualifying competition we care to watch . When Lance a!Jd Tiger were coming up victorious across the pond, the U.S. Olympic Track and Field trials were in full swing in Sacramento. Television tried to hype the 200meter race for almost two weeks in hope of improving ratings and interest in ; this important qualifying event. The winners there will represent us in Sydney. Only the first three qualifiers ofan event will -be allowed to make the trip to Australia. Fans were treated to 10 days of trash talking that would make Spike You know th e i.ndividual who will represent u s in the Sydney games . Yea.

' Individual achievements are always noteworthy in sports. Last Sunday was no exception as two Americans, Tiger Woods and Lance Armstrong, captured · two of the most coveted prizes in their respective spor ts . At 24, Woods became the youngesl and fifth player in the history of golf to com pete a career grand slam. Imagine winning the Masters, British Open, PGA Championship and the U.S. Open before th e age of 25? ' Not only did Woods bea t Ernie Els and Thomas Bjorn by eight strokes, but he also broke the record for having the most strokes under par in the history of the British Open. What is more amazing is that this was Tiger's 21st c.eer victory. Al"erican domination of individual competition continued in Paris as Lance Armstrong took the ride, alo ng with the Champs-Elys ses with his second consecutive Tour de France victory. The 28-year-old Armstrong. who was diagnosed with cancer in 1996, _, now hopes to win in the Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia in September. I wonder how the Europeans felt · as Americans continued to dominate the ir premier sp.Orting events? Let's not forget earlier this month Pete Sampras won his record 13 major by winning Wimbledon for the seventh time . Yes, Lennox Lewis is the heavyweight champion, but for Americans, he still has to fight and beat Mike Tyson . "Iron Mike" is a jerk, but he's our jerk. .

The head of the North Korean national Olympic Committee, Pak Myong Chol. responded Thursday in a letter to Samaranch, saying he didn 't see the need for the two national flags since the co untries ' ultimate goal is unifica tion .

These include: "Cameras don't uke pictures, people do" and "The camera - looks ootn ways - .in picturing • subject, we are also picturing a pan of ourselves." Recently, I've added another to my list of favorite photo phrases: "When you show a child a picture of himself or herself, you are showing the child that you love him or her." I like this one a lot, be<:ause, as the father of an 9-year-old boy, I've found out how true it is. I take pictures of my son doing all sorts of things: sports, hiking, practicing rhe piano and so on. When my son and I pick up the pictures at the local. supermarker , he can't walt to see them. I'm sure it's not a conscious thing, like "Oh, my dad really loves me, he wants to remember all the stuff we do together." But on some level, I know when h~ looks at the pictures he feels that I' really car~ abour his activities. Later on in life, I know he'll feel that way. I' m not alone in rhis fee ling of how unportant it is to take pictures of your child. For example, fnends of nune, Lou and Doree Desiderio, have made taking pictures of thelf son an important part of their lives. They are hu ge baseball fans, and the family is traveling to every majo r-league ballpark in America w sec a ball game. Sure, they enjoy the games and taking picturt..,; of the players. But Lou 's son, Evan, is photographed in each park and with some of the players. Just inugine that photo album ' Why did Desiderio nrakt· this commitme nt to tr.~vdin g with hi s baseball - loving f.1 mily' Accordmg to Lo u, "The tnp was organized o ut of a basic fear of not spending enough· time with o ur son.We did not want to wa ke up when he's 18 and rhink that we had mi ssed the most impo rtant part of ou r Uves." So the message of this week 's column , whi ch , by the way, has beco me my No. I ph oto ti p, is thi s: Ta ke lo ts of p1 cture< of your fami ly, dnmg .111 """ of' til in g;.

A one-time-use (formeny ealled-dispo.. ble) -~cm!era will do just fine. In fact, today's one-time- use cameras uke much better pictures than earlier models, due for the most pan to vastly improved ISO 800 speed films. Carty one of these small cameras with you at all times, and you may well catch some magic memory to be re~ved again and again, when you and your child look at the picrure at some later time. If you don't make a photographic record of your family's life, you may just wake up someday, perhaps when your child is going off to college, and wish you had some snapshots to look ar in the quiet of the night.

The · gracious custom of an open church wedJing will rake place at the Hope Baptist Church, Middleport, on Aug. 26 at 6 p.m. Photos bring parents and children closer together (AP) Readers of this column know that I'm fond of some wellknown photography sayings. These include: "Cameras don't uke pictures, people do" and "The camera - looks ootn ways - .in picturing • subject, we are also picturing a pan of ourselves." Recently, I've added another to my list of favorite photo phrases: "When you show a child a picture of himself or herself, you are showing the child that you love him or her." I like this one a lot, be<:ause, as the father of an 9-year-old boy, I've found out how true it is. I take pictures of my son doing all sorts of things: sports, hiking, practicing rhe piano and so on. When my son and I pick up the pictures at the local. supermarker , he can't walt to see them. I'm sure it's not a conscious thing, like "Oh, my dad really loves me, he wants to remember all the stuff we do together." But on some level, I know when h~ looks at the pictures he feels that I' really car~ abour his activities. Later on in life, I know he'll feel that way. I' m not alone in rhis fee ling of how unportant it is to take pictures of your child. For example, fnends of nune, Lou and Doree Desiderio, have made taking pictures of thelf son an important part of their lives. They are hu ge baseball fans, and the family is traveling to every majo r-league ballpark in America w sec a ball game. Sure, they enjoy the games and taking picturt..,; of the players. But Lou 's son, Evan, is photographed in each park and with some of the players. Just inugine that photo album ' Why did Desiderio nrakt· this commitme nt to tr.~vdin g with hi s baseball - loving f.1 mily' Accordmg to Lo u, "The tnp was organized o ut of a basic fear of not spending enough· time with o ur son.We did not want to wa ke up when he's 18 and rhink that we had mi ssed the most impo rtant part of ou r Uves." So the message of this week 's column , whi ch , by the way, has beco me my No. I ph oto ti p, is thi s: Ta ke lo ts of p1 cture< of your fami ly, dnmg .111 """ of' til in g;. Make su re to photograph f.1 mily parties, holid.1y' ,lJld "po rtin g c\'L'tlt~. Bul Jho t.JkL' pKmrcs of cwryd.Jy OCCUrn.' IKL"'. [ike.: L'.l£ing ,JI J H.

A one-time-use (formeny ealled-dispo.. ble) -~cm!era will do just fine. In fact, today's one-time- use cameras uke much better pictures than earlier models, due for the most pan to vastly improved ISO 800 speed films. Carty one of these small cameras with you at all times, and you may well catch some magic memory to be re~ved again and again, when you and your child look at the picrure at some later time. If you don't make a photographic record of your family's life, you may just wake up someday, perhaps when your child is going off to college, and wish you had some snapshots to look ar in the quiet of the night.

Carey joined Gallia County commissioners on the tour, who hailed the program as another means for Gallia countians to obtain affordable housing.
