At a time when he should be the star of his long-awaited show, other Democrats are embarrassing_ him. Bill and Hillary C linton, for example, have taken the spodight at fund- raisers in Hollywood while the Democratic National Con. Vl:ntion is on. That does not compare to the embarrassment caused by U.S. Rep. Loretta Sanchez of Orange County, Calif., whose claim to fame was narrowly ousting rhe comical Bob Dornan four years ago. Sanchez planned a recent fund-raiser at the Playboy Mansion in Los Ange" les. Didn't anybody tell her that religious groups and Hispanic organizations would be offended? And didn't she think that such an event would embarrass Gore, who is trying to disassociate himself fiom the Clinton sex scandals? Although Sanchez said she would comidertnoving the event, the damage is done. Don't be surprised to hear Playboy jokes aplenty during the Democrats' Convention. • The Olympian, Olympia, Wash., on preparing for retirement: An aging state work force poses many challenges for state agencies. Half of the state work force is 45 years old or older and IS percent are 55 or older. Yes, baby boomers run thick through the rosters of state agencies. And , yes, they are nearing retirement. Now is the rime to start crafting a multi-faceted strategy to cope with work force change to ensure that delivery of stare services is not disrupted. The rush to retirement by state workers is likely to be even more dramatic than in the state's overall work force, where the 45 and older crowd totals 35 percent of all workers. It means th e state must be at the vanguard in preparing for work force change. One of the tasks at h~nd will be the recruitment of - new employees. __ __ Another challenge will ~e replacing highly skilled and experi" enced employees, particularly in jobs and locations where the labor market is competitive. State occ upations likely to exceed the near-term retirement rate of 12 percent to 13 percent per year are foresters , insura11ce underwriters, senior co mputer specialists, senior social workers, park rangers, natural-resources managers and 15 others. State age ncies will also face the often daunting task of providing growth for employees competing for a limited number of higher level positions. Sliced another way, 50 percent of the state workers are 40 to 54 years o ld. Tha t's a lot of employe es reaching the top of their career potential at the same time .... In the next 10 years, the state government work force will undergo major changes. Let's make sure we're not caught off guard.

BY JOHN CUNNIFF NEW YORK - Wherever they go, the baby boom bunch crea tes a stir, demographically, eco nomically, sociologically, legislatively, recreationally - well, you get the idea. They've pumped ca r and home sales to levels not seen before and probably not imagined either, bought stocks in quantities like no other generation, saved less, spent more, been educated well. They've lived through the highest interest rates this century, the lowest jobless rates, some of the worst recessions, double-digit inflation, the longest expansion and the most volatile stock market. All this they put up with or enjoyed, but this isn 't to say they were passive participants. For better or worse, their behavior and sheer numbers were involved, for better or worse, in all events. Ask Federal R eserve cha irma n Alan Greenspan about their exuberant buying of stocks, their insatiable urge to spend, their role in making the saving.; rate disappear below zero, their huge co ntribution to the economic boom, and their technologi cal gem us. There are now more th an 81 million men and women between the ages of 31i and 54, some 30 perce nt of a 275 million populati on . And o lder ones are just a decade trom the traditional retirement age. This muc h we know for sure: Most will grow older. And so there is no choice but to plan now fo r the big demographr c cvc nr ,f the century's first decade: the retirement of the baby boomers. Those con cerns, pe rhaps not so overtly identified, were imbedded in proposals and promises heard at the politi cal conventions this summer, and they ' ll b e inherent in debates over the" next two mo nth s. They could even determine th e next president. Such considerations already are conm ming much of the time of corporate planners. actu aries, finan cial planners, retai lers . homebuilders, carm akers , city and urban planners, universi £i es., etc. R epublican legislators see k to rt·pcal inlw r . itance !axes and cut those on Soc ial Secllrity benefits. President C linton prom ises to veto such measures, arguing that surpllls funds arc needed for, among oth er things , health care. In that regard, the future is now. Since the baby boomers w1 ll he getting older, living lon ger and working less, h ealthcare expenditures almost inevitably must ri se.

At a time when he should be the star of his long-awaited show, other Democrats are embarrassing_ him. Bill and Hillary C linton, for example, have taken the spodight at fund- raisers in Hollywood while the Democratic National Con. Vl:ntion is on. That does not compare to the embarrassment caused by U.S. Rep. Loretta Sanchez of Orange County, Calif., whose claim to fame was narrowly ousting rhe comical Bob Dornan four years ago. Sanchez planned a recent fund-raiser at the Playboy Mansion in Los Ange" les. Didn't anybody tell her that religious groups and Hispanic organizations would be offended? And didn't she think that such an event would embarrass Gore, who is trying to disassociate himself fiom the Clinton sex scandals? Although Sanchez said she would comidertnoving the event, the damage is done. Don't be surprised to hear Playboy jokes aplenty during the Democrats' Convention. • The Olympian, Olympia, Wash., on preparing for retirement: An aging state work force poses many challenges for state agencies. Half of the state work force is 45 years old or older and IS percent are 55 or older. Yes, baby boomers run thick through the rosters of state agencies. And , yes, they are nearing retirement. Now is the rime to start crafting a multi-faceted strategy to cope with work force change to ensure that delivery of stare services is not disrupted. The rush to retirement by state workers is likely to be even more dramatic than in the state's overall work force, where the 45 and older crowd totals 35 percent of all workers. It means th e state must be at the vanguard in preparing for work force change. One of the tasks at h~nd will be the recruitment of - new employees. __ __ Another challenge will ~e replacing highly skilled and experi" enced employees, particularly in jobs and locations where the labor market is competitive. State occ upations likely to exceed the near-term retirement rate of 12 percent to 13 percent per year are foresters , insura11ce underwriters, senior co mputer specialists, senior social workers, park rangers, natural-resources managers and 15 others. State age ncies will also face the often daunting task of providing growth for employees competing for a limited number of higher level positions. Sliced another way, 50 percent of the state workers are 40 to 54 years o ld. Tha t's a lot of employe es reaching the top of their career potential at the same time .... In the next 10 years, the state government work force will undergo major changes. Let's make sure we're not caught off guard.

BY JOHN CUNNIFF NEW YORK - Wherever they go, the baby boom bunch crea tes a stir, demographically, eco nomically, sociologically, legislatively, recreationally - well, you get the idea. They've pumped ca r and home sales to levels not seen before and probably not imagined either, bought stocks in quantities like no other generation, saved less, spent more, been educated well. They've lived through the highest interest rates this century, the lowest jobless rates, some of the worst recessions, double-digit inflation, the longest expansion and the most volatile stock market. All this they put up with or enjoyed, but this isn 't to say they were passive participants. For better or worse, their behavior and sheer numbers were involved, for better or worse, in all events. Ask Federal R eserve cha irma n Alan Greenspan about their exuberant buying of stocks, their insatiable urge to spend, their role in making the saving.; rate disappear below zero, their huge co ntribution to the economic boom, and their technologi cal gem us. There are now more th an 81 million men and women between the ages of 31i and 54, some 30 perce nt of a 275 million populati on . And o lder ones are just a decade trom the traditional retirement age. This muc h we know for sure: Most will grow older. And so there is no choice but to plan now fo r the big demographr c cvc nr ,f the century's first decade: the retirement of the baby boomers. Those con cerns, pe rhaps not so overtly identified, were imbedded in proposals and promises heard at the politi cal conventions this summer, and they ' ll b e inherent in debates over the" next two mo nth s. They could even determine th e next president. Such considerations already are conm ming much of the time of corporate planners. actu aries, finan cial planners, retai lers . homebuilders, carm akers , city and urban planners, universi £i es., etc. R epublican legislators see k to rt·pcal inlw r . itance !axes and cut those on Soc ial Secllrity benefits. President C linton prom ises to veto such measures, arguing that surpllls funds arc needed for, among oth er things , health care. In that regard, the future is now. Since the baby boomers w1 ll he getting older, living lon ger and working less, h ealthcare expenditures almost inevitably must ri se.

(AP)- The state Senate prepared to tackle the case against Supreme Court Chief Justice David Brock by hearing frguments on motions relating to neXt month's impeachment triaL On Monday, Brock's lawyers were set to argue that the articles of impeachment should be dismissed, while House prosecutors will present the case against the jurist. On Tuesday, the senators plan to meet again in public session to vote on the motions . Senate PreSident Beverly Hollingsworth said the session would continue on Wednesday if necessary. The House voted in July to impeach Brock; the Senate trial w~s to begin Sept. 18. Brock, who has been chiefjustice since 1986, IS accused of improperly calling a lower-court JUdge about a politically connected lawsuit; talking to another justice about the handling of that justice's divorce; lying ·under oath during th~ investigation; and allowing justices who had been disqualified from hearing certain cases to comment on impending rulings. Michael Madigan, Brock 's lawyer, has asked the Senate to dismiss the four Impeachment articles. If not, he asked the Senate to adopt the more ditlicult "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard of proof instead of tll<' easier "prepondcr;lnc~ of the evidence:" or "dt·ar and ronvmcing t'Yid~:n c t·" standards. He also asked th.tt a two-thirds vote of the Sen.llc be required to convict mstcJd of a ~implc majority, .md to allow .t k·s~er pen:~1ty if then- is ;1 convinion.

The House prost•cutors' response argued for the Senate to deny three motions and rook no position on the fourth. Divers find no signs of life MOSCOW (AP) - Rescue teams got their first look inside a sunken Russian submanne Monday, but there was no sign that any of the 118 crewmen missing for 10 days on the sea bottom were alive, ofliciils said. Norwegian divers managed to open the escape hatch on the nuclear submarine Kur;k after working for 24 hours, but found nothing in the chamber underneath, said Russian navy spokesman .

Erin Brockovich honored BARSTOW, Calif (AP) - What was supposed to be a simple autograph signing session turned into a festival for Erin Brockovich, whose battle against a California utility was turned into a hit movie. More than 300 people turned out to see Brockovich, the legal assistant played in the movie by Julia Roberts, at Silver Screen Video to sign copies of the "Erin Brockovich" video and DVD last week. The mayor even proclaimed Aug. 15 Erin Brockovich Day. "I have to tell you from the bottom of my heart that I hope that all of you are proud of you;· Brockovich said to the crowd after accepting the proclama~ tion. "You inspire me.You are my heroes ."

The polling firm Zogby International conducted the nationwide telephone survey during three days in June by calling I ,005 high school sophonlores ,j uniors and seniors.

(AP)- The state Senate prepared to tackle the case against Supreme Court Chief Justice David Brock by hearing frguments on motions relating to neXt month's impeachment triaL On Monday, Brock's lawyers were set to argue that the articles of impeachment should be dismissed, while House prosecutors will present the case against the jurist. On Tuesday, the senators plan to meet again in public session to vote on the motions . Senate PreSident Beverly Hollingsworth said the session would continue on Wednesday if necessary. The House voted in July to impeach Brock; the Senate trial w~s to begin Sept. 18. Brock, who has been chiefjustice since 1986, IS accused of improperly calling a lower-court JUdge about a politically connected lawsuit; talking to another justice about the handling of that justice's divorce; lying ·under oath during th~ investigation; and allowing justices who had been disqualified from hearing certain cases to comment on impending rulings. Michael Madigan, Brock 's lawyer, has asked the Senate to dismiss the four Impeachment articles. If not, he asked the Senate to adopt the more ditlicult "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard of proof instead of tll<' easier "prepondcr;lnc~ of the evidence:" or "dt·ar and ronvmcing t'Yid~:n c t·" standards.

Trying to reduce "dec larer 's edge," a defender gets to produce the opening lead. A fair chunk of the time, this makes the difference between, success and failure . To find the best lead, you must pay careful attention to the auc· tion. However, occasionally part· ner can push you in the right direction by making a lead-directing double. This is ~ sually a double of an artificial bid, like Stay· man, a tran sfer, or a control-bid (cue-bid). Yet there are some con· ventional doubles, which we will consider later in the week. However, even if you get partner off on the right foot , you may sti II have to defend correctly. Sit· ling Eaq, trying to shoot down four spades, you win the first three tricks in clubs, partner di scarding the diamond two on the last. What now?

Trying to reduce "dec larer 's edge," a defender gets to produce the opening lead. A fair chunk of the time, this makes the difference between, success and failure . To find the best lead, you must pay careful attention to the auc· tion. However, occasionally part· ner can push you in the right direction by making a lead-directing double. This is ~ sually a double of an artificial bid, like Stay· man, a tran sfer, or a control-bid (cue-bid). Yet there are some con· ventional doubles, which we will consider later in the week. However, even if you get partner off on the right foot , you may sti II have to defend correctly.

The first game at the 65,600seat s~dium was played before a less-than-capacity crowd as the Bengals sold only 56,180 tickets. Fans were grumbling when the Bears (2-1) scored on their fim two possessions. Robinson, who was the Bean' leading receiver last year but missed the first two preseason games with an abdominal strain, scored the first two times he touched the ball. He got 1 5 yards behind the secondary for a 45yard scoring catch from Cade McNown, who rolled left to PGA hmPageB1 "If! would have won, it would have been a dream come true." Tied with Woods going to the 72nd hole, May holed an 18-foot birdie pun from the fringe that put Woods in a perilous situation - a 6-foot birdie putt to get into the playoff. It curled in on the left side, Woods punching his fist and letting out a roar. Woods took a one-stroke lead on the first playoff hole, No. 16, but not until after May showed he wasn't going away, hitting a 70-yard chip from the rough that stopped inches from the cup. Woods tracked his 25-foot birdie putt, trotting after it and pointing at the ball as it dropped for birdie. Both players made impressive par saves on the 17th, setting the stage for even more drama on the 18th. Woods hit his drive well to the left and into a sycamore. tree. It dropped onto a cart path, bouncing so high it hit the tree again before rolling down the path onto some trampled dirt. He hit his approach into the left rough, and his third shot into a bunker. But May failed to capitalize. He hit across rhe fairway into more rough, and his approach caught the ridge on the horseshoeshaped 18th, green, some 40 feet a~y. After Woods hit out of the bunker to 2 feet, May's only hope was to make a putt that was as long as his chances. It almost went in. But this year - this game belongs to Woods. He closed with a 67, his 15th consecutive round TODAY'S SCOR·EBOARD avoid a cornerback blitz and saw the Bengals' breakdown. On the Bears' next possession, Robinson took a short screen and outran the secondary for another 45-yard score. While Robinson had a banner return, Bengals running back Corey Dillon was ineffective in his first game since ending a holdout. He carried seven times for 16 yards and dropped a pass in the first quarter. " At first, I had butterflies because I've been away from the game for a few months," Dillon said. "I took some licks and things started to feel a little more natural.'' Smith and Warrick led a 21. point spurt tha~ put the Bengals ahead to stay. Warrick, the Bengals' top draft pick, went 14 yards on a reverse for his first touchdown and the first against the Bears in presea- son. Warrick jumped into the front row of fans in celebration. Smith then threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to uncovered tight end Tony McGee and a 3yard scoring pass to third-round pick Ron Dugans - Warrick's teammate at Florida State- for a 2 1-14 lead. Smith was 13-of-14 for 139 yards during the three drives and pounded his chest repeatedly after throwing his first touchdown passes of the preseason. Smith completed 21 of 29 for 184 yards without an interce ption as he played all but 12 seconds of the first three quarters - another indication of how badly C incinnati wanted to win. · McNown played the first two series of the third qu arter and completed 12 of 18 for 177 yards with one interception overall. at par or better in the majors. He has had at least a share of the lead - in 11 of the last 12 rounds in the majors, unprecedented domination . Thomas Bjorn ofDenmark had a 68 and finished third, five strokes back at 13-under 275. He was among five other players who looked like they might have a chance to claim the Wanamaker Trophy when Woods stumbled early. Two-time Masters champion Jose Maria Olazabal (69) and Australians Stuart Appleby (69) and Greg Chalmers (70) were another stroke back. May and Woods came from rhe. same junior golf section in Southern California, although the 31-year-old May was a star as Woods was just getting started. Few could have guessed their paths would mmeday cross at Valhalla, with a major championship at stake. Woods has won 26 times around the world, 22 of those on the PGA Tour. May's only victory came last year in the British Masters on the European tour, although he.showed his mettle by holding back Colin Montgomerie and Lee Westwood, Europe's best two players. . Ar Valhalla, the back nine turned into match play, a format the PGA Championship ditched in 195!l. It more than held its own against some of the greatest duels ever. It was the best player in the game against a player few had even heard of until this week. While Ernie Els, Phil Mickelson and Davis Love III failed to mount a challenge, May seem'ed to relish it. He outplayed Woods for the first half of an incredible backN.Y. Melt 8, Los Angeleo B nine duel and looked as if he had San Diego 5.

He was racing hard and it looked like he just got real loose. "I saw the 20 car wiggle and it looked like it got real sideways." The race went on for 41 laps while Gordon 's crew installed new brakes. He rejoined the race while the leaders still had 119 laps to go, but comp leted only 141 laps before retiring the car. Xerry Earnhardt, making his first Winston Cup start, hit the wall on the fourth turn of his sixth lap, bringing out the first of the race's eight caution flags. "The car was running real loose," he said. "We were just trying to stay out of trouble and bring it in on the first caution. But another car got underneath me on turn 3 and rook away my air. I thought I could hang on to it, but I spun out and hit the wall." Still, it was just the start of a soso day for all three Earnhardts in this race. Dale Jr., despite ;carting first, spun onto the infield grass while swerving to avoid Robby Gordon on lap 177 and finished J 1st. Their father, The Intimidator himself, finished sixth after taking a provisional to start 37rh. Bill Elliott, on lap 124, wen t into the wall at the exit of the second turn with a cut right tire. That caution period led to a mass pit stop, with Rudd leadin g Jeff Burton. Wallace was back in front when they all came out and the caution was lifted. Rudd and Wallace raced hard around the banked 2-mile speedway for the next few laps. swaping the lead back md forth slveral Wallace went in with 30 laps to go and took on fuel plus four new tires, all in 16.1 seconds. The others waited until lap 173 to make their final pit stop. Rudd, who went in with that group, took on only two new tires both on rhe right side of th e car. Wallace, who won at Bristol, Tenn. in May and the second Pocono race in July, was running third behind Rudd and Labonte when the spin by Earnhardt Jr. and Robby Gordon brought the cau tion flag o ut on lap 177. The difference was rhat Wallace had the four new tires while rhe others had taken on just two. "I didn't think I was going to carch those guys," Wallace said. "But the caution flag came out and they were sitting on two tires. They gambled, but we went for four and .... when they dropped that (restart) fl ag, the Miller Lite Ford took off like a bullet." There were 21 lead changes among eight drivers and 12 of the 43 cars failed to finish .T here were 38 laps run under the eight cautions. P1pal 400 Rnulta BROOK~YN, Mich.
