Bobby Labonte wins Brickyard 409
INDIANAPOLIS (AP)
With a gende nudge, one of the
most dominating Brickyard 400
drives went for naught. Once
Bobby Labonte caught and then
slipped past Rusty Wallace, it was
all over.
"I know that I had the damnde~t race I've ever had in my life
with Bobby Labonte - 75 laps
with him four inches off my
bumper," Wallace said. " I felt like I
was swatting hornets inside that
car the whole time.
Wallace led 110 ofthe fine 145
laps at the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway on Saturday. But
Labonte, the Winston Cup series
leader, began his move in Turn 3
of the \46th lap and got alongside
Wallace coming off Turn 4. The
cars bumped on the front straight

and Labonte ducked inside for
the lead.
"We both got together. I didn't
drive down onto him and he didn't come up into me,"Wallace said
of the late pass that sent Labonte
to the checkered flag by a margin
of 4.229 seconds. "I think when
you are going that fast, the air
tends to pull you tog~ther.
"Turn 3 was my worst turn all
day, and I knew he could get me.
He got under me,"Wallace said.
It's . no consolation. of course.

but the 110 laps at the head of the
pack gave Wallace a Bric kyard
400 record for the most by a non wmner.

The second-place finish by
Wallace also denied car owner
Roger Penske an II th victory at
Indianapolis. His drivers have

The younger Labonte, who fin ished seco nd twice and third
once in th~ past three years,
earned $831,2 25, easily the
biggest paycby" of his career. Wallace took home $310,625 for sec~nd and Bill Elli ott won
$236,475 for third .
T he purse w as a Brickyard
record $6.5 million.
Two-time winner Dale Jarrett ,
second to Labonte in the series
points, was seventh. R icky Rudd ,
another forme r winner, started
from the pole and finished 21st.
Jeff Gordon, the only other twolime winner in the seven-year
history of the race, was 33rd.
Labonte averaged a record
155.912 mph in the race slowed
by just two caution flags.

Braden Looper came in with two on in the bottom of 1he ninth and got three outs for his second
save in as many chances.
Kotsay hit a two-run homer in the first inning off

Teen finds a wad of cash
and whole lot ·of trouble
VAN WERT (AP) - A teenager who found $850 on th e
street wasn't so lucky after all.
First he had to pass a he detector test to prove to hiS parents
that he didn't steal the money.
Now he has to go to co urt to
try to penuade a judge to give
hm1 the still-unclaJmed cash.
"Right now, I feel like it
doesn't do any good to do the
n ght thing;' md Josh Boroff, 15.
"I did the nght thmg and look
what happened."
He found the money in an
envelope- e1ght SIOO bills and
a SSO - while walking home
from schoolm March.
At first, he didn't tell anyone
"I thought of stuff I could
buy," Boroff said. "Then, something happened in my head. I
thought it could be someone's
income or money to pay bills. ln
the middle of the night I decided to do the right thing. I was

ready to tell my 1110111 1n the

The next day, Ius mother.
Tammy May, saw the money
and said 1t had to obe turned 111 to

h1 s great-grandfather told the
family that he was mi ss mg
$1,000. However, a few days
later, the great-grandfather's
cash was counted agam. and
none was m1ss1ng

"He just counted wrong and
thought 1t was short." May told
The (Toledo) Blade for a story
Monday.
May said she also was concerned because her son had hesitated to ·tell her about his li nd .
"The he dete ctor test was to
prove he d1dn't do anything
wrong, so th ere would be no

he would pass."

Stocks rally on optimism for stable interest rates
NEW YORK (AP) -Stocks rall1ed Monday on
optinusm that interest rates w1ll remain stable m the
face of recent econonuc data that suggests the economy IS slowmg down.
The Dow Jon es mdustnal average closed up 99.26
at 10,867.01, accordmg to prelnrunary calcu lations.
Broader stock mdicators were also higher. The
Standard &amp; Poor's 500 mdex was· up 16 39 at
1,479.32, and the Nasdaq composite index was up
75.63 at 3,Ro2.99.
Investors are searchin g for clues as to whether the
Federal Reserve Board Will raise mterest rates at its

5'·

from

next meetmg Aug. 22. But much of the econonuc
data released recently has been oflmle help. offering
conflicting figures that can be mterpreted several

ways.
For example, on Friday the Labor Department
reported that the nation's unemployment rate was
unchanged at 4 percent m July, o ne of the lowest
figures in decades.
However, the report showed private payrolls rose
by JUSt 138,000 dunng the month, down significantly from a JUmp of 242,000 m June.

DEAR ABBY: "Sleepless" should
thank God she has a husband to "disturb" her at 4 a.m . to offer • loving goodbye. How I wish I could be disturbed
once more. My husband. my love, was
robbed and shot tti death at our family
business last Feb. 23 at 6:10a.m . It happened right after he telephoned me to
say, " I just called to tell you how much I
love you."
You don't know what you will miss
until it is taken from you . You may print
my name. - - CAROLYN IVEY. MAR!ON,ALA.
DEAR CAROLYN: Please accept
my d~epest sympathy for your tragic loss.
My heart is with you . Read on:
DEAR ABBY: "Sleepless" said she
and her husband have separate bedrooms
because his snoring keeps her awake. My
husband is also a snorer. He has sleep
apnea. Our saving grace is a breathing
machine (CPAP) that allows him to get

enough air.Yes, it makes • bit of no ise -nothing like snoring -- and is • bit unromantic. But we've adapted. and we both
get a good night's sleep. l suggest her
husband check with hi s doctor. - CHARI IN OCEANSIDE, CALIF
DEAR CHARI: An excellent suggestion . Read on :
DEAR ABBY: My husband of 21
years snored loudly. too. We had separate
beds, and he always left for work without
breakfast or a kiss from me. Today he
shares his life with anoth er woman - - his
new wife. He had minor surgery to correct the snoring and lost some weight.
He's a happy, he'althy man.
For all those women who feel inconvenie nced by their husband's needs or
minor flaws , l have three suggestions: (1)
Prepare to support yourself finan cially;
(2) remind yourself ntit to miss • man 's
love. touch and companionship; and (3)
send him my way. I'll take him! - -

'Lockbox' strategy looks to prove GOP's point
lf House Republicans can't get President .
L : .1Wn to agree to new tax cuts - as seems
likdy- they are preparing a new "lockbox" or
"debt wall " strategy to convince voters this is
no t a do-nothing Congress.
Under the strategy, if R epublicans can't go
into the election saying they have eliminated
the marriage penalty and inheritance taxes, they
would say they blocked Clinton 's spending
plans and trumped him in paying down the
national debt.
The strategy involves allocating to debt
reduction the amount of whatever tax cuts
C linton vetoes, creating a third "lockbox" to
fo llow on .those already instituted for Social
St'curiry surpluses and M edicare revenu es.
R epublicans think they have already escaped
the do-nothing label that De m ocrats were
eager to pin on them by. adoptin g an "offensive
agenda" of lockboxes, tax cuts and alternatives
to Democratic proposals on patients' rights,
education, prescription drugs and the minimum
wage.
M o reover, Repubbcans think - with some
justice - that they hit upon a shrewd tactic this
year in splitting their tax-cut wish list into its
popular component parts and forcing DelllOCrats to vote with them.
This ploy has been so successful that Clinton
signed a bill lifting the earnings limit for So cial
Security recipients and is bucking public opinio n in vetoing other measures.
In a rare example of cooperative bipartisanship, on July 25 the House passed tax cuts worth
$2 1 billio n over 10 years as part of a broad effort
to aid poverty communities. The vote was 394
to 27.
Of course, D emocrats haven 't given up on
the do-nothing charge, arguing that failure to
enact laws on patients' rights, prescription drugs
and many other issues constitutes failure on the
part of the GOP Congress.

attack into "do nothing for people," implicitly
acknowl edb&gt;ing that Congress has been active,
but in aid of the privileged and special interests,
not ordinary folks.
To regain the initiative for his party, Clinton
has launched an all-o ut offensive against "the
fiscally irresponsible, poorly targeted and regressive Republican tax plan."
In his radio address JI!IY 29, Clinton charged
that "Congressional Republicans are treating
the budget surplus as if they'd won it in the lottery," planning to give it all away in tax cuts th,at
would provide more r~lief to the cop I percent
of taxpayers than to the bottom 80 percent.
By White House calculations, Republicans so
far this year have passed tax cuts worth $712 billion over 10 years - $913 billion when you
count lost interest savings - and over the past
two years, a total of S1.8 trillion .
Clinton is set to veto • just-passtd $293 billion marriage penalty relief bill when it reaches
his desk and • $105 billion estate-tax repeal, and
·has indicated he also opposes raising IRA and
40\(k) contribution limits and reduction of
taxes on Social Security benefits.
In a revetsal of the GOP tactic of passing
token measures on patients' rights and prescription drugs, Clinton is offering a series of"targeted" tax cuts worth S263 billion over 10
yeats.

Clinton claims that by rejecting major tax
cuts, his budget reserves enough of anticipated
budget surpluses to pay off the $1 .5 trillion federal debt by the year 2012, while also providing
• . prescription drug benefit for all seni01" and
increasing funds for health and education programs.
Republicans haven't definitely decided to
give up on their tax cuts. First, they'll try to
override Clinton's vetoes. If that's unsuccessful,
leadership aides say, they may attach some tax
rebef measures onto legislation that Clinton
wants, such as the tninimum wag~: increase.
They may also repackage some cuts into a
September budget reconciliation bill - which
would not be subject to • Democratic 6libuster
in the Senate - and hope to negotiate • compromise with Clinton. But the president might
veto that, too. ·
"What Clinton hopes;• said one top GOP
leadership aide, "is to dangle a few (tax cut)
scraps in hopes that we'U suck up to • whole
bunch of big spending programs" when Members are anxiou.&lt; to leave town in October to
campaign.
"Last year, we waged the fight against new
~pe 0 dipg , on !~e basis Qf preyentil]g,il rai&lt;l ()11.
the Social Security Trust Fund," said the aide.
"The fight this year will be, 'Are we going to
take the money from these vetoed tax cuts and
use them to pay down the debt, or are we going
to spend them on new programs?'This will take
us into the election,We'll be on the side of debt
reduction."
Polls indicate that the public wants to use the
budget surplus for debt reduction ahead of both
spe11ding and tax cuts. Gridlock in Washington
might give the public what it wants. With both
parties claiming credit- and fighting to • draw
- the publ,ic just may decide that ruvided government is good.

This time, the Republicans erased even the
vestiges of competition. The roll call of the states,
the ceremonial vote on which nominees are formally chosen, was staged in installments over all
four nights, so as not to bore people all at once.
The networks dropped their full -time coverage, which once pre- empted everything d se,

managers tried to reclaim their national audi.ences by making the show more entertaining.
They can 't compete with the professionals, not

Presto! Kentucky magician
tums himself into top Vegas ad
LAS VEGAS (AP)- With the wave of a hand,
Lance Burton can make a herd of elephants or a
B_:-2 Stealth bomber disappear.
He has been bound in a straitjacket and sealed
in a tank filled with water. He's been chained to
roller r:oaster- tnr:ks and he's been buried alive.
But his greatest trick may have been his own ·
unlikely transformation: from toiling in seedy
adult nightclubs and rural amusement parks in
Kentucky to headlining one of the most dynamic and popular shows on the Las Vegas strip.
"! feel like I'm the luckiest person alive," Burton says as he munches a quick meal between his
7 and 10 p.m. shows, which he performs five
nights a week in • $27 million theater bearing his
name. "I'm always waiting for that phone call :
'Hello. We've just realized you're really • no-talent hillbilly. We've made a horrible mistake and
we'd like you to leave now.' ...
"This has been like something out of •
n1ovte.
From the moment he emerges from a smokefill ed glass case until he departs the stage behind
th e wh eel of • floating Corvette, Burton has the
audi e nce mesmerized. Hi s down-home charm
and sharp· wit serve as an e nte rtaining soundtrack
to his visual show case.
" I was born and raised in Louisville , Ky.," he
· tells the applauding crowd . " Thank you , hillbilli es. I'm actually very well known in Kentucky.
I'm the only person with a tuxedo."
Fro m there , Burto n leads the audience
throu gh 90 minutes of illusions that become
mo re and more elaborate.
At o ne point, Burton vanishe s from the stage
o nl y to mate rialize moments later atop a chandeli e r han g in g in the ce nte r of the theater.
" H ow did you do t hat' " ye lls • man in th e
audi e nce as Burto n re turns to the stage . .
"Sorry, si r, but if I told ·you , I'd have to kill
yo u," he re plies .
" Then tell my wife," th e man shouts back ,
evoking a burst of laughter from Burton and the
rest o f the audie.nce .

for a nickel -a person. By the time he
reached high school, he was performing in nightclubs around Louisville.
He enrolled at the University of Louisville,
studying theater arts and refining his skills. Burton honed his 12-minute act at • theme park in
southern Kentucky and even • downtown
Louisville strip club.
A\ 20, he got his first big break. He won the
Gold Medal Award for Excellence from the
International Brotherhood of Magicians, the
world's largest magic society,,which brought him
a two-week gig in Los Angeles.
That led to the chance of • lifetime- an invitation to perform on The Tonight Show.
"That was surreal," he says. "I just couldn't
fathom that two weeks earlier l had been working at • rural Kentucky amusement park and a
strip club in Loui sville. Now, Johnny Carson is
introdu cing me to the world ."
That appearance, in turn, got hi1ll a j ob w ith
the Folies Bergere, the longest running show in
Las Vegas , where he ended up staying nin e years.
"When I first started there, all I had was my
12-minu te act with the birds, cards and some
candles," he says. Ove r time , he added mate rial
and eventually had enough to do his own show.
Five years at the Hacienda Hotel followed ,
durin g which he perfected the act.
In 1996, Burto n p e rformed h1 s first sho w at
the Mont e Carlo and ha s si nce prove n to be one
of Las Vegas ' mo st popular enterta i ne rs.
"He's got a trem endous amount o f stage presence and charisma." says Las Vegas comedian an d
magi cian Mac King. "He's also got an inte restin g
combination of dow n-home warmth and ge nuinen~s s that people seem to gravitate. to."
Burton's charity work with th e Shriners Hospital and Habita t for Humanity earn ed him the
title of " Favo ri te Male La s Vegan" by th e Las

He return s to Ke ntu c ky to see hi s pa rents, and

WASHINGTON (AP) - The
Republican National Corrunittee is
starting a S3.7 million ad campaign
critical of AI Gore's handling of the
environment on his property.
The ads will air in Ohio and 16
other batdeground states starting
Tuesday and running through the
week.
·
The ad says GOP presidential
nominee George W. Bush offers a
positive issue agenda while Gore is
spending his time on the attack.
''George Bush is cleaning up
Texas:· the ad says, citing the EnVironmental Protection Agency's
Toxic Release Inventory as including eVidence that the state is making major strides.
And it says Gore has a poor environmental record on his own property. Citing pubhc records and a
book called "Inventing AI Gore," it
says Gore has allowed mining companies to mine zinc on his property, caused water pollution and made
a half-million dollars in mining
royalties.
"Even on the environment, AI

NASHVILLE , Tenn. (AP) - AI Gore
is launching an historic Democratic
ticket with Sen. Joseph Lieberman and
his " real sense of awe," hoping to surge
into his nominating convention with a
burst of energy and the moral high
ground.
The new allies huddled privately, setting the stage for a colorful campaign
rally to unveil the ticket. They were
quickly headed for a nostalgic swing
through Gore's home town and Lieberman's home state.

With his deetsion, Gore drew some of
the clearest distinc tions with President
Clinton by picking one of the presi dent's
sharpest Demodatic critics, and his
strategists made it clear the pick was
based heavily on Lieberman's respected
moral and religious standi ng.
It was an effo rt to buttress Gore
against Republican efforts to tarnish
Gore with the sex scandals that have
swirled around C linton, a central theme
of last week's Republican co nvention .
Lieberman also brings the first Jewish

Borrowing by consumers
slows slightly in June
WASHINGTON (AP) Borrowing by Americans, both
on credit cards and to finance
auto and other persona) loans,
slowed only slightly in June
from May's torrid pace.
The Federal Reserve said
Monday that consumer credit
increased by $12 billion in
June, or 9. 9 percent at an annual rate, while the category that
includes auto loans rose by the
largest amount since January
1999.
The overall figure was high•

of 11.8 percent, the second
largest gain in 17 months.

measured by the gross domestic
product, accelerated in the

·Tobacco conference aims to unifY :.
world's anti-smoking efforts
CHICAGO (AP) - Thousands of healdt and
other professionals have gadtered this week to tackle a long-standing question: What's dte best way to
get people to quit smoking?
It is a daunting task for officials meeting in Chicago for the 11th World Conference on Tobacco.
The latest Harvard College Alcohol Survey has
found more eVidence that U.S. college students continue to experiment with tnany forms of tobacco.
The 1999 survey- published' in Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association and
released at the conference - found that nearly 46
percent of students tried cigarettes, cigars and odter
tobacco products. Nearly a third were using tobacco.
Worldwide estimates of smoking-related deaths

are no more heartening.
Officials at the conference say smoking will contribute to the deaths of 4 million people this year. If
unchecked, they say those deaths will increase to I 0
million in 2030.
Dr. Gro Harlem Brundtland told a room full of
the conference's 4,500 attendees that such figures
should motivate "a truly global debate" on the
tobacco issue.
Brundcland, director-general of the World Health
Organization, also called for a unified anti-smoking
approach: high cigarette taxes bolstered by hard-hitting anti-smoking ads, a ban on smoking in public
places and increased access to programs that help
smokers quit.
