T he trend is inevitably in that direction. Not all o f th em own shares directly, although many millions do. M any hold title instead through 401 (k)s, pension plans, mutual funds and other institutional creati ons. Truly astounding ho usehold sums are invo lved, again directly or indirectly, in stocks. Mutual funds alone claim 82.8 million individuals in 48.4 million households. It wasn't always so. In 1950, ownership of corporate equities totaled only $143 billion. Today, mutual funds alone have assets of m 9 re than $7 trillion, and most of the growth has been since 1990. To summarize, ownership of stocks has become th e biggest financial phenomenon of the past decade o r any decade, a momentous mass mtgrati on from the passbook savmgs account to the stock portfolio. And so to the point: Are candidates for office ·on slippery g ro und in declaring big business to be the enemy? Is their rhetoric just an echo of the past that no longer resonates? T he answers aren't -as easy as the enormo us investor numbers might suggest. Americans still do distinguish berween big business as a vehicle for their investments and big business as a danger. You can find evidence of it everywhere, in commulliti es where businesses have moved m 111 anger over poor prc>otltCts And , understa ndably, you can always find it among the poor and the o therwise disadvantaged. Psyc hologically, big is eas ily equated with bad. Big is seen as autocrati,c, unresponsive, unca ring, impersonal. The co mplaining customer may be a m ere number dealing w ith a corporate counterpart. The _complaints aren't ()_nly from i ndiy iduals. Some of the an g ric_ est complam ants are o ther, smalle r bu sinesses that feel big busin esses see ks their destruction through unfair competition. Big business is aware of this, ef course, and hundrods of large companies have mad e corrective strid es, alb eit sometimes only after suits or government actio n. Publications r~ l arl y ra te companies on social behavior, and companies know poor ratings ca n hurt sales. But now, poor behavior involves another dimension. People today aren't just customers any more; they are sha reholders too. And not just individual shareholders, but cap able o f acting as a group. ·< The poor too are not as ho pel essly disadvantaged as before. Residin g at the financial bottom is no t a permanent address. Mobility applies. Today's poor have a chance to become tom orrow 's middle class. In short, the old battle lin es have become indistinct. Eac h. whatever t he gro up, has a stake in the other 's success. The evolution still has a long way to go before th e relatio nship is m ature; it isn't a marriage yet; and it might never develop into one. And there'll be spitfire spats again and agai n. But you have to wonder if politi cs is as finely tuned to the public mind as it used to be, when th e issues were them agai nst us .

Mutual funds alone claim 82.8 million individuals in 48.4 million households. It wasn't always so. In 1950, ownership of corporate equities totaled only $143 billion. Today, mutual funds alone have assets of m 9 re than $7 trillion, and most of the growth has been since 1990. To summarize, ownership of stocks has become th e biggest financial phenomenon of the past decade o r any decade, a momentous mass mtgrati on from the passbook savmgs account to the stock portfolio. And so to the point: Are candidates for office ·on slippery g ro und in declaring big business to be the enemy? Is their rhetoric just an echo of the past that no longer resonates? T he answers aren't -as easy as the enormo us investor numbers might suggest. Americans still do distinguish berween big business as a vehicle for their investments and big business as a danger. You can find evidence of it everywhere, in commulliti es where businesses have moved m 111 anger over poor prc>otltCts And , understa ndably, you can always find it among the poor and the o therwise disadvantaged. Psyc hologically, big is eas ily equated with bad. Big is seen as autocrati,c, unresponsive, unca ring, impersonal. The co mplaining customer may be a m ere number dealing w ith a corporate counterpart. The _complaints aren't ()_nly from i ndiy iduals. Some of the an g ric_ est complam ants are o ther, smalle r bu sinesses that feel big busin esses see ks their destruction through unfair competition. Big business is aware of this, ef course, and hundrods of large companies have mad e corrective strid es, alb eit sometimes only after suits or government actio n. Publications r~ l arl y ra te companies on social behavior, and companies know poor ratings ca n hurt sales. But now, poor behavior involves another dimension. People today aren't just customers any more; they are sha reholders too. And not just individual shareholders, but cap able o f acting as a group. ·< The poor too are not as ho pel essly disadvantaged as before. Residin g at the financial bottom is no t a permanent address. Mobility applies. Today's poor have a chance to become tom orrow 's middle class. In short, the old battle lin es have become indistinct. Eac h. whatever t he gro up, has a stake in the other 's success. The evolution still has a long way to go before th e relatio nship is m ature; it isn't a marriage yet; and it might never develop into one. And there'll be spitfire spats again and agai n. But you have to wonder if politi cs is as finely tuned to the public mind as it used to be, when th e issues were them agai nst us .

The Trojans, playing Penn State's style of smash-mouth football, outrushed the Nittany Lions 164 yards to 6, th e lowest total for any Penn Srate team under Joe Paterno. "People say I'm just a track star. They say, 'Oh, he's fast, but all he can do is run track ,'" said McCullough, a sprinter on USC 's track team." I want to show everybody 1 can·do it all." McC ullough , who emerged as the starter in training camp, had 413 yards last sea.son and never carried more than 21 times before getting 29 carries against Penn Stat~. "I said we had three runners and one would establish himself as the tailback and Sultan took a big step," USC coach Paul Hackett said. "He's one of the fastest guys around, but he made some tough runs." Quarterback Carson Palmer also showed some toughness. Palmer, playing his first game since breaking a collarbone in the third game last year, was 1 0-of-20 for 87 yards. "He handled the football team the way I wanted him to,'.'

Mustard and Wellston's Brad Young put on a rushing display .worthy of a championship game Saturday as the lronmen and Gqlden Rockets squared off in their annual season-opening batde. Jacluon jumped out to 21 -7 lead, then held for a 29-20 victory. Mustard rushed for 177 yards on 19 carries, and caught two p:wes for 27 yards and a touchdown to pace the lronmen 's offense. His 32-yard reception in the second quarter gave Jackson (1-0) a two-touchdown lead and .helped secure the win. Young, who has moved to tail" :back this season since new head ·coach Dave Lucas took over, car:ried the ball 23 times for 164 :yards and a touchdown. His 7 4:yard bunt in the second period ·cut the Jackson lead to 21-14. : David Swisher scored an insur·ance touchdown for the lronmen in the final period, capping a 9play, 78- yard march with a 13:yard run at the 5:52 mark. Jackson :Jed 29-14 at that point. · Wellston cut the deficit to 29- 'PGA ftumPBaeB1 ' was last year," Woods said." And hopefuUy, I'll be better next year." : A ye2r ago, Woods won the NEC Invitational by one stroke :over Phil Mickelson for his fifth :victory in eight starts, It was an ;amazing feat, topped only by the fact Woods has continued that yace the past 12 months. . · · Woods became the first player since Byron Nelson in 1945 to win at least eight times on the PGA Tour in consecutive years. It also was the third time this year Woods has successfuUy defended a tide,- the fint one to do that since Johnny Miller in 1975. He has won three of the five Golf Championship World events, and Sunday's $1 million pay check gave him more money in the last two years than anyone on the career money list except for Davis Love Ill. Even more impressive about this victory is that Woods was coming off an emotional taxing playoff victory over Bob May in the PGA Championship, his third straight major to match the record first set by Ben Hogan in 1953. Letdown is not part of his repertoire. He started out with a 64, tied the course record Friday with a 61 and never gave anyone a -chance. Ultimately, the only race was against time, and it turned out to be the only close call. Ordinarily, they would have returned Monday morning, but everyone pressed on. "Because of the lead I had, I think everyone just wanted to get 20 when quarterback Dusty Fultz linked up with Jason Breener on an IS-yard strike with 33 seconds remaining. The Rocken went 70 yards in five plays for their final score of the game. Jackson outgained Wellston 352 yards to 228 yards rushing. Overall, the lronmen racked up 385 yards to Wellston's 299 yards. South Point 42, Vinton County 6 SOUTH POINT David Chapman rushed for 97 yards and three touchdowns to lead South Point to a 42-6 rout of Vinton County Friday. The Pointers (1-0) jumped out to a 26-0 lead in the first quarter as Chapman scored on runs of 22 and 29 yards. Shane Hollingshead caught a 20-yard touchdown pass from J:tred Smith and also had a 36yard rushing touchdown for the Pointers in the opening period. Smith found DJ. Bryant on a four-yard scoring play in the second quarter to give South Point a 33-0 halftime lead. Chapman tallied his third score of the game in the third quarter on a six-yard run. The Pointers' defense recorded in and finish it," Woods said. "If the tournament was tied, I guarantee we would have stopped." Why bother? Woods led by nine at the start of the final round and only Price and Hal Sutton, playing in the final group with Woods, got any closer than five shots. Woods eliminated any drama with a two-shot swing on No. 8 when he made a 12-foot birdie putt after Sutton found the bunker and hit a thin shot otT wet sand across the green and made a bogey. There were a few thrills. Stewart Cink and Retief Goosen each made a hole-in-one, and Ernie Els made a double-eagle o n the par-S 2nd when his S-iron from 186 yards ca ught the slope be-hind the hole and rolled back into the cup. Woods , as usual, stole the show at the end. While not motivated by records,• he was inspired by his caddie. Steve Williams' favorite number is 21 , and he wanted Woods to get to 21 under with a birdie on the last hole. When Woods asked for a dry glove, Williams gave him one - but not before writing "21" on it as a reminder. It was an B-iron from 168 yards, hit pure as can be. They couldn't see where it landed, but they didn't have to with the roar that came from the green. . " I've won 1najors. and he was not that excited," Woods said. The way Woods finished anoth er romp of a world- class field was only fittmg. As a kid, he and his father used to sneak on the Navy course in Southern California at twilight and play into the darkness. "You have to call the shot a safety in the third period when Vinton Counry quarterback Travis Bethel was sacked in the end zone. Vinton County (0-1) logged its only points of the night on Josh Johnson's seven-yard run with less than a minute to play in the game. Trimble 7, · Symmes Valley 6 GLOUSTER Trimble's Justin Guinter scored on a I 0yard pass from Bobby Trace in the second quarter and the Tomcats' defense made that stand up in a 7-6 win over Symmes Valley Friday Brad Ca rpenter rumbled 40 yards for a touchdown in the third period, but the Trimble defense stopped the Vikings on the extra point run to secure the win. Carpenter led all ball carriers with 127 yards on 22 attempts. Symmes Valley rolled up 192 total yards. Trace completed I 0-of-21 passes for 99 yards to help pace Trimble.

The Nittany Lions commiued two false start penalties in the first three plays, then made a crucial mistake on special teams.
