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.

Penn State, which lost nine starters on defense, incl~ding Courtney Brown and La Var Arrington, didn't seem like it had an overhauled defense early in the game. An interception by Bhawoh Jue gave the Nittany Lions possession One player who survived the cut was running back Terry Kirby, last year's starting tailback.

According to Pi no, who treated Parker fiom the time of his arrival WASHINGTON (AP) -Signs of compromise have emerged for a bill to raise the minimum wage by $1 over two years, now that House Speaker Dennis Hasten proposed to move the legislation without two key tax cut proposals that drew objections from President Clinton. Senior White House officials and Democratic congressionli leaders said Monday that Hastert's offer could represent a breakthrough in long-stalled negotiations on size and speed of a minimum wage increase and the composition of an accompanying package of tax breaks for business. "We will study Speaker Hastert's offer and hope to work with the GOP, which now seems possible for the first time, to produce a bill that is in the best interest of working Americans," said House Minority leader Dick Gephardt, D-Mo. Hascert, R-Ill. , said in a letter to Clinton that Republicans still wanted a $76 billion package of business tax breaks paired with the wage measure. But they would remove proposals to abolish the estate taX and to change pension laws, including increased contribution limits for 401 (k) plans. Both are subjects of separate bills moving on their own. Democrats have long sought in these prosperous economic times to increase the $5 .15.an-hour federal minimum wage, but Republicans say tax breaks are needed to cushion the higher costs that would fall on businesses. " It is very clear that a vast majority of congressional Democrats and Republicans would like to see a balanced approach achieved before we adjourn," Hastert said in the letter to Clinton . "I believe that we can work together to pass this legislation when we return in September with strong bipartisan majorities in the House and Senate." According to Clinton administntion esti• mates, about I 0 million workers earning between $5.15 and $6.14 an hour would be directly helped by a $1 minimum wage increase. For a full-time worker now earning minimum wage, it would amount to a $2,000 annual raise. Gene Sperling, the presicknt's chief economIC adviser, sa~d the Whit e H ome would " take a fresh look" at the tax package now that " the most objectionable polson pill> " were removed . " If this movement refl ect> a R ep ubtican willingness to work with us to rem ove rl'Jnai ning barriers, then perhap' we ca n co me to a bill the president could sibm ," Sperlmg sa id. Republicans arc divided on the merits of increasing the m.immu m wage, bllt with House control at stake in the fall el ecti o ns some want to head off potential Demo crati c atta ck ads claiming they favor tax cuts that skew to the wealthy, such as abolishin g esL1 te taxes, but have done nothing to g1vc raiSes to the lowestpaid wor)<ers. Under Hastert's proposal. t he minimum wage would rise to $6.15 an hu ur over two years: 50 cents on Jan. 1 and 50 ce nts o n Jan. 1, 2002. The proposal would provide busmcss tax breaks worth $76 b1ltion over 10 years, down fiom 512 2.7 billion in an earli er House version of the bill. GAO: Better mileage doesn't mean less safety WASHINGTON (AP) For years automakers have said the tradeoff for better fuel efficieney is less-safe vehicles, but congressional investigators say that is 'not necessarily so. A General Accou nting Office report distributed to reporters on Monday said there is little research linking tougher government standards for fuel economy and vehicle safety. Automakers have argued that to increase the average gas mileage of their fleets, they would have to sell more small cars that are lighter and can travel farther on a tank of gas. Research shows that occupants of smaller cars are more likely to die in a crash than those riding in fullsize vehicles or large trucks. The GAO report said there is general agreement among safety advocates and automakers that as long as there is sufficient lead time to meet higher standards, autormkers can come up with fuel-saving technologies instead of simply building snnaller cars. "Automotive experts we spoke with said that providing auto manufacturers with six to l(J years lead time should be sufficient to minimize negative safety effects," said the report, requested by Sen . John McCain, R-Ariz. The federal Corporate Avenge Fuel Economy standards were · c m 1975 at 27.5 mpg on passenger cars and 20.7 mpg for light trucks, which includes minivans and sport utility vehicles. The automakers do not have to meet the standard for each vehicle, but their entire fleet must average the gas mileage standard . Since 1996, Congress, under strong lobbying from the auto industry, has blocked the Clinton administration from even studying a possible increase in CAFE standards. Environmental groups have long insisted that automakers could achieve better gas mileage through technology and lauded the GAO report as a confirmation of th eir position. "We don 't see any reason for safety to be a hurdle," said Michelle Robinson of the U nion of Concerned Scientists, which promotes increasing the CAFE standards. "Safety becomes more a function of what the autumakers decide to do to meet C AFE." Diane Steed, president of the auto industrysupported Coalition fur Vehicle C hoice. said it costs money to research new technologies and that boosts the price of vehicles. "The whole problem there is with the way CAFE works. CAFE is not really what the corporations can do, it's what you and I buy." The GAO report noted that because gas prices were low in re cent years and consumers have been buymg larger ve hicles that emphasize performance over fuel economy, there has been little incentive for autmnakers to make more fuel-efficient vehicles.

Charles Plaua, 50, of Wickliffe, entered the pleas Monday just before, he was about to go on trial in Cuyahoga County Common l'leJS Court. Assistant county Prosecutors Richard Bombik and Dennis Morgan said the victims and their families approved the plea agreement, which recommends an eight-year prison sentence. Judge David T. Maria set sentencing for Sept. 5 and continued Platia 's $250,000 bond. Platia, a former in<tructor at Heights Driving School, had been charged with 50 felonies that could have netted more than I()(} years in prison if he had been convicted on all counts. Defense attorney Jerome Emoff said that risk was one of the reasons for the plea agreement. Emoff said Platia's relationship with one of the students was consensual, but he said he has no explanation for the other case, in which Platia is accused of forcibly havmg sex with an underage student. He said Platia has denied that charge. Teachers approve new contrad COLUMBUS (AP) City teachers have overwhelmingly approved a three-year contract \vith the city school district.

According to Pi no, who treated Parker fiom the time of his arrival WASHINGTON (AP) -Signs of compromise have emerged for a bill to raise the minimum wage by $1 over two years, now that House Speaker Dennis Hasten proposed to move the legislation without two key tax cut proposals that drew objections from President Clinton. Senior White House officials and Democratic congressionli leaders said Monday that Hastert's offer could represent a breakthrough in long-stalled negotiations on size and speed of a minimum wage increase and the composition of an accompanying package of tax breaks for business. "We will study Speaker Hastert's offer and hope to work with the GOP, which now seems possible for the first time, to produce a bill that is in the best interest of working Americans," said House Minority leader Dick Gephardt, D-Mo. Hascert, R-Ill. , said in a letter to Clinton that Republicans still wanted a $76 billion package of business tax breaks paired with the wage measure. But they would remove proposals to abolish the estate taX and to change pension laws, including increased contribution limits for 401 (k) plans. Both are subjects of separate bills moving on their own. Democrats have long sought in these prosperous economic times to increase the $5 .15.an-hour federal minimum wage, but Republicans say tax breaks are needed to cushion the higher costs that would fall on businesses. " It is very clear that a vast majority of congressional Democrats and Republicans would like to see a balanced approach achieved before we adjourn," Hastert said in the letter to Clinton . "I believe that we can work together to pass this legislation when we return in September with strong bipartisan majorities in the House and Senate." According to Clinton administntion esti• mates, about I 0 million workers earning between $5.15 and $6.14 an hour would be directly helped by a $1 minimum wage increase. For a full-time worker now earning minimum wage, it would amount to a $2,000 annual raise. Gene Sperling, the presicknt's chief economIC adviser, sa~d the Whit e H ome would " take a fresh look" at the tax package now that " the most objectionable polson pill> " were removed . " If this movement refl ect> a R ep ubtican willingness to work with us to rem ove rl'Jnai ning barriers, then perhap' we ca n co me to a bill the president could sibm ," Sperlmg sa id. Republicans arc divided on the merits of increasing the m.immu m wage, bllt with House control at stake in the fall el ecti o ns some want to head off potential Demo crati c atta ck ads claiming they favor tax cuts that skew to the wealthy, such as abolishin g esL1 te taxes, but have done nothing to g1vc raiSes to the lowestpaid wor)<ers. Under Hastert's proposal. t he minimum wage would rise to $6.15 an hu ur over two years: 50 cents on Jan. 1 and 50 ce nts o n Jan. 1, 2002. The proposal would provide busmcss tax breaks worth $76 b1ltion over 10 years, down fiom 512 2.7 billion in an earli er House version of the bill. GAO: Better mileage doesn't mean less safety WASHINGTON (AP) For years automakers have said the tradeoff for better fuel efficieney is less-safe vehicles, but congressional investigators say that is 'not necessarily so. A General Accou nting Office report distributed to reporters on Monday said there is little research linking tougher government standards for fuel economy and vehicle safety. Automakers have argued that to increase the average gas mileage of their fleets, they would have to sell more small cars that are lighter and can travel farther on a tank of gas. Research shows that occupants of smaller cars are more likely to die in a crash than those riding in fullsize vehicles or large trucks. The GAO report said there is general agreement among safety advocates and automakers that as long as there is sufficient lead time to meet higher standards, autormkers can come up with fuel-saving technologies instead of simply building snnaller cars. "Automotive experts we spoke with said that providing auto manufacturers with six to l(J years lead time should be sufficient to minimize negative safety effects," said the report, requested by Sen . John McCain, R-Ariz. The federal Corporate Avenge Fuel Economy standards were · c m 1975 at 27.5 mpg on passenger cars and 20.7 mpg for light trucks, which includes minivans and sport utility vehicles. The automakers do not have to meet the standard for each vehicle, but their entire fleet must average the gas mileage standard . Since 1996, Congress, under strong lobbying from the auto industry, has blocked the Clinton administration from even studying a possible increase in CAFE standards. Environmental groups have long insisted that automakers could achieve better gas mileage through technology and lauded the GAO report as a confirmation of th eir position. "We don 't see any reason for safety to be a hurdle," said Michelle Robinson of the U nion of Concerned Scientists, which promotes increasing the CAFE standards. "Safety becomes more a function of what the autumakers decide to do to meet C AFE." Diane Steed, president of the auto industrysupported Coalition fur Vehicle C hoice. said it costs money to research new technologies and that boosts the price of vehicles. "The whole problem there is with the way CAFE works. CAFE is not really what the corporations can do, it's what you and I buy." The GAO report noted that because gas prices were low in re cent years and consumers have been buymg larger ve hicles that emphasize performance over fuel economy, there has been little incentive for autmnakers to make more fuel-efficient vehicles.

However, even experts can have problems. This deal occurred dur· ing last year's Cap Gemini tournament in the Netherlands. East·West were Alain Levy and Paul Chemla, world champi· ons from Paris. North was Zia Mahmood, a Pakistani who divides his time primarily between New York and London. South was Tony Forrester, from England. Over Chemla's three-heart weak jump overcall, Zia s.e uled for three no-trump. However, when Forrester bid a natural four no-trump over East's four-hean sacrifice, Zia showed his true col· ors by jumping to .six diamonds. That contract would have gone one down , but Forrester curious· ly corrected to six no-trump. As you can see, · this would have failed by either two or four tricks , depending on the defense's exper· tise in running the club suit. How· ever, feeling he was on firm ground, Levy doubled ._GI!essing what that meant , Forrester ran to seven spades. Now East was in a quandary. Would a double be Lightner, asking for a mmh eart lead? After some thought, he passed. West, not realizing what was happenin g, led the heart king . Immediately Forrester claimed 15 tricks : seven spades, one heart and seven diamonds! TREE SERVICE • ~em0" 32 Eul Pass Perhaps West should have led a club, but East was maybe dou bly (sorry!) wrong. Maybe he shouldn't have doubled six notrump, the slam he could beat. And maybe he should have bid four clubs over three no-trump to direct the lead. Yet then his oppo· nents might have stopped in game.

However, even experts can have problems. This deal occurred dur· ing last year's Cap Gemini tournament in the Netherlands. East·West were Alain Levy and Paul Chemla, world champi· ons from Paris. North was Zia Mahmood, a Pakistani who divides his time primarily between New York and London. South was Tony Forrester, from England. Over Chemla's three-heart weak jump overcall, Zia s.e uled for three no-trump. However, when Forrester bid a natural four no-trump over East's four-hean sacrifice, Zia showed his true col· ors by jumping to .six diamonds. That contract would have gone one down , but Forrester curious· ly corrected to six no-trump. As you can see, · this would have failed by either two or four tricks , depending on the defense's exper· tise in running the club suit. How· ever, feeling he was on firm ground, Levy doubled ._GI!essing what that meant , Forrester ran to seven spades. Now East was in a quandary. Would a double be Lightner, asking for a mmh eart lead? After some thought, he passed. West, not realizing what was happenin g, led the heart king . Immediately Forrester claimed 15 tricks : seven spades, one heart and seven diamonds! TREE SERVICE • ~em0" 32 Eul Pass Perhaps West should have led a club, but East was maybe dou bly (sorry!) wrong. Maybe he shouldn't have doubled six notrump, the slam he could beat. And maybe he should have bid four clubs over three no-trump to direct the lead. Yet then his oppo· nents might have stopped in game.

He'd rather throw the ball, and he's already proven his arm strength is better than Pennington's. That was evident last Christmas Day during practice. for the Motor City Bowl at the J>ontia c Silverdome.

The only thing about him now is he can't get down on himself when he does make a mistake and we've got to be there to pick him up. It's going to take time. "Everybody's worri ed about him , but in my opinion, I think he 's going to be a pretty good quarterback ." too." While baclcing up Pennington, Leftwich soaked up everything. "I think that was the best thing for me, two years of being behind that guy: Because that guy was the best quarterback in the nation last year," Leftwich said. "He wasn't one of those guys that kept his secrets to himself. He taught me all he could teach me.

Ohio Senate Bill 181 expands the definition of a delinquent child to include any child who is an "habitual truant" and who has previously appeared before the Juvenile Court as an unruly child for truancy, and any child who is a "chronic truant." The legislation also modifies the definition of"habitual truant" and expands the court's jurisdiction in handling cases of habitual truancy. including charges against parents or guardians who are responsible for truant students" Parents who are responsible for their children's truancy have appeared in Meigs County Court on the charges for the past twO years, and some have been fined, and sentenced to jail time by Judge Patrick H "O'Brien" "We're more advanced in this regard than a lot of counties," said Ju venile Officer Nancy Hill. " Most of what this new legislation addresses has already been put into place here in Meigs County." Hill said Judge Robert Buck and other juvenile court judges do not have the ;IUthority to incarcerate truants because Ohio law does not allow for the incarceration of"unruly" juveniles only "delinquents"" Prosecutor John Lentes said those restrictions inspired officials to consider another alternative: charging the parents with a cnme. " Because of the sentencing restrictions facing the court, we decided we would get around that by making the parents responsible in county court," Lentes said. "By not sending their children to school, they are contributing to the delinquency of the child, and that's how they are charge&" The fir>t- degree miSdemeanor charges carry a possible sentence of six months in jail - and about 20 parents have done some jail time for not sending their children to schooL Lentes said the parents' jail sentence is suspended on a first offense, but imposed ifJ:he child_ has tnore unexcused absem::es.
