Robert Spada denies that the more than 9,700 letters he sent to his constituents at taxpayer expense last month were motivated by the upcoming election. Spada's letters set a single-month reconl for mailings from the Ohio Senate.The Parma Heights Republican said the letters he sent in August involved offici.tl state business. Spada sent the memo to work.ing and retired Ohio teachers in the 24th District, where Democrat Ed Boyle of North Olmsted is challenging him. It related the details of a successful bill, sponsored by Spada and 15 other senators, that enhanced some teachers' retirement benefits. Boyle said the mailing was clearly political and came as the two candidates were working to secure endorsements fi:om the district's teachers associations. · . Boyle won the Ohio Federation ofTeachen' endorsement in July. Spada was selected the Ohio Education Association's recommended candidate in late August. Teri Geiger, chief of staff for the Senate's Republican majority, said the mailing violated no Senate policy. Democrats, however, said they believed the Senate has a policy of limiting mailings to 3,000 pieces per month. fis t. Two yean ago.

Ohio anticipates higher Candidate faces possible mayoral recall·_ natural gas prices COLUMBUS (AP) As Ohioans prepare to turn off their air conditioners and flip on the heat, th~ state is expecting higher consumer prices for natural gas. All signs point to increases of 30 to 50 percent, or possibly more, in the cost of natural gas during th e upcoming heating season. Also, in creased demand for · natural gas could lead to higher heating bills, "creating a financial burden for our low- and fixed~ income residents,'' Gov. Bob Taft said. Over the summer, the whole. sale price of natural gas reached S5 per thousand cubic feet; that compares with $2.07 in 1999. Heating-pri ce spikes also Regulation put on hold CLEVELAND (AP) -A staffing rule for nursing homes has been pulled from a pack.age of changes the Ohio Department of Health is proposing to update regulations. Following months of debate among state regulators, consumer advocates and the nursing' home industry, the rule changes were submitted Sept. 1 to the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review. · State health officials wanted to require nursing h~mes to provide an average offour hours a day of" direct care" to each nursing home resident. The federal Health Care Financing Administration recently rele~sed the first part of a study that reported "strong findings on the relanonship between staffing and quality" of care at nursing homes. Gov. Bob Taft sought a delay in the staffing regulation, The Plain Dealer reported Saturday. "The governor felt he had not been properly informed and i ~volved in th~. process," said Mary Anne Sharkey, Taft's communications director. He wanted orne to take a second look at it." The nursing home industry has fought mandated staffing levels, saytng that labor shortages and high turnover have left nursing homes unable to fill jobs open under current standards. Facilities should be held accountable for quality of care, not told how to do it, said Pete Van Runlcle, president of the Ohio Health Care Association, which represents for-profit nursing homes: could pose a challenge for the state's economy, the governor said. Industry experts say gas will be in shorter supply, and the price will be higher this year. That's in pan because there has been little exploration for new supplies recently. Some areas might even experience shortages. Demand also has increased because many of the smaller new electricity- generating • plants being built in Ohio and other states are powered by natural ga5. With summertime temperatures still in the state, officials acknowledge that the natural gas issue isn't gaining an abundance of attention.

NEWARK (AP) - Middle school students are starting classes nearly an hour earlier than last year so that high school student> can get more sleep. The goal: to help high school students do better on the stare proficiency tests. The idea to shift starting times is based on studies that show older student5 perform better on tests when classes start later, said SuperIntendent R andy Stortz, hired after the district had fallen into emergency academic status. · C lasses start this year at Newark High School at 8 a.m., 30 minutes la ter than last year. T he di strict was declared in academic emergency after failing 18 of the state's 27 rating standards last year. The district met 13 of the sta ndards this year, enough to tift. it to academic-watch status in January. Stortz said his orders are simple: Improve test scores and run the 7,28&-stude nt district with less money. Stortz said his goal is ac hieve effective status - the highest of four state rankings - by 2006 . To save $5 million , the district eliminated 40 positio ns, including 15 for teac hers, and more than 40 courses. "Th ere's a great deal of pressure on folks, and morale is low,' ' said Diane Green, president of the local teachers' union. " We all need to reflect o n w hat we're doing in the classroom, but in the process it's diffic ult to handle th e level of stress." Stortz satd the teachers and classes that were eliminated apparently were n't co ntribu ting to the district's performance. " We've ac lueved five additional standards without them,'' he said. -- - - - Monday, September 18,2000 Householder's ambition led him to head of Ohio House Bush.

Robert Spada denies that the more than 9,700 letters he sent to his constituents at taxpayer expense last month were motivated by the upcoming election. Spada's letters set a single-month reconl for mailings from the Ohio Senate.The Parma Heights Republican said the letters he sent in August involved offici.tl state business. Spada sent the memo to work.ing and retired Ohio teachers in the 24th District, where Democrat Ed Boyle of North Olmsted is challenging him. It related the details of a successful bill, sponsored by Spada and 15 other senators, that enhanced some teachers' retirement benefits. Boyle said the mailing was clearly political and came as the two candidates were working to secure endorsements fi:om the district's teachers associations. · . Boyle won the Ohio Federation ofTeachen' endorsement in July. Spada was selected the Ohio Education Association's recommended candidate in late August. Teri Geiger, chief of staff for the Senate's Republican majority, said the mailing violated no Senate policy. Democrats, however, said they believed the Senate has a policy of limiting mailings to 3,000 pieces per month. fis t. Two yean ago.

Ohio anticipates higher Candidate faces possible mayoral recall·_ natural gas prices COLUMBUS (AP) As Ohioans prepare to turn off their air conditioners and flip on the heat, th~ state is expecting higher consumer prices for natural gas. All signs point to increases of 30 to 50 percent, or possibly more, in the cost of natural gas during th e upcoming heating season. Also, in creased demand for · natural gas could lead to higher heating bills, "creating a financial burden for our low- and fixed~ income residents,'' Gov. Bob Taft said. Over the summer, the whole. sale price of natural gas reached S5 per thousand cubic feet; that compares with $2.07 in 1999. Heating-pri ce spikes also Regulation put on hold CLEVELAND (AP) -A staffing rule for nursing homes has been pulled from a pack.age of changes the Ohio Department of Health is proposing to update regulations. Following months of debate among state regulators, consumer advocates and the nursing' home industry, the rule changes were submitted Sept. 1 to the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review. · State health officials wanted to require nursing h~mes to provide an average offour hours a day of" direct care" to each nursing home resident. The federal Health Care Financing Administration recently rele~sed the first part of a study that reported "strong findings on the relanonship between staffing and quality" of care at nursing homes. Gov. Bob Taft sought a delay in the staffing regulation, The Plain Dealer reported Saturday. "The governor felt he had not been properly informed and i ~volved in th~. process," said Mary Anne Sharkey, Taft's communications director. He wanted orne to take a second look at it." The nursing home industry has fought mandated staffing levels, saytng that labor shortages and high turnover have left nursing homes unable to fill jobs open under current standards. Facilities should be held accountable for quality of care, not told how to do it, said Pete Van Runlcle, president of the Ohio Health Care Association, which represents for-profit nursing homes: could pose a challenge for the state's economy, the governor said. Industry experts say gas will be in shorter supply, and the price will be higher this year. That's in pan because there has been little exploration for new supplies recently. Some areas might even experience shortages. Demand also has increased because many of the smaller new electricity- generating • plants being built in Ohio and other states are powered by natural ga5. With summertime temperatures still in the state, officials acknowledge that the natural gas issue isn't gaining an abundance of attention.

NEWARK (AP) - Middle school students are starting classes nearly an hour earlier than last year so that high school student> can get more sleep. The goal: to help high school students do better on the stare proficiency tests. The idea to shift starting times is based on studies that show older student5 perform better on tests when classes start later, said SuperIntendent R andy Stortz, hired after the district had fallen into emergency academic status. · C lasses start this year at Newark High School at 8 a.m., 30 minutes la ter than last year. T he di strict was declared in academic emergency after failing 18 of the state's 27 rating standards last year. The district met 13 of the sta ndards this year, enough to tift. it to academic-watch status in January. Stortz said his orders are simple: Improve test scores and run the 7,28&-stude nt district with less money. Stortz said his goal is ac hieve effective status - the highest of four state rankings - by 2006 . To save $5 million , the district eliminated 40 positio ns, including 15 for teac hers, and more than 40 courses. "Th ere's a great deal of pressure on folks, and morale is low,' ' said Diane Green, president of the local teachers' union. " We all need to reflect o n w hat we're doing in the classroom, but in the process it's diffic ult to handle th e level of stress." Stortz satd the teachers and classes that were eliminated apparently were n't co ntribu ting to the district's performance. " We've ac lueved five additional standards without them,'' he said. -- - - - Monday, September 18,2000 Householder's ambition led him to head of Ohio House Bush.

() CYI--t-<9 (l fW'I,A!PY ~A. ~ 1 "Vv---.,W ;~ Profiling Racial issues surround investigation of scientist • The New York Times, "" a vallishiflg security case: The criminal investigation and prosecution ofWen Ho Lee, which largely collapsed last weekend with his agreement to plead guilry to a single felony count, must be reviewed by an independent examiher to determine if racial profiling or other unfair tactics were used by the government. Dr. Lee had planned to plead guilry to improperly downloading classified defense documents at the Los Alamos laboratory. But the plea hearing has been postpo ned until tomorrow. Federal prosecutors are expected to drop the 58 other counts against him. allowing him to go free. The remaining count does not indicate any intent to harm the United States or assist a foreign nation, the central claim the government initially sought to prove. This is a stunning turnabout for government officials who previously insisted that the downloaded data contained the "crown jewels" of America's nuclear arsenal that could change th e global balance of power if transferred to a hostile nati 0 n .... Judge Parker ordered the government to turn over for his review thousands of pages of documents this week, including classified material compiled by the Energy Department on racial profiling tactics and State Department records on indivi duals who breached national security but were not prosecuted. In ending the case, the government will conveniently avoid those disclosures. But Congress and the public should not be satisfied with this resolution. President Clinton should appoint a politically independent person of national standing to review the entire case .... If racial pro· filing is found , investigators and prosecutors should be called to account for their ·conduct. • Albuquerque (N.M.) Journal, 011 rhe .firillg of lndiafla basketball coad1 Bobby Knight: Indiana Universiry finally did what should have been done yeats ago in firing basketball coac h Bobby Knight. For 29 years, Knight's stellar winning record was repeatedly trumped by reports, eve n video, of his boorish behavior on and off the court. Knight publicly yelled obscenities, banged tables, threw things. He choked a player in 1997 and repeatedly berated referees and . other officials with whom he did not agree. Off-camera, there were reports he stuffed a fan in a garbage ca n, assaulted a security ufficer in Puerto Rico, fired a blank gun at a reporter, threw a vase at a secretary. Knight won three NCAA champ ionships with the Hoosiers, amassed 763 wins and guided the U.S. Olympic team to a gold medal in 1984. For too long, these ends were allowed to outweigh Knight's uncivil means. His behavior became an accepted part of the game, part of IU's infamy, an attraction. As a result, even the protests in the wake of his firing have been misguided: Fans are cursing Indiana Unive rsiry President Myles Brand and burning in effigy the freshman whose run-in with Knight was the final straw.... What's wrong wit~ this picture? Everything. When authority figures misbehave and get away with it - jn fact, are rewarded in spite of it - others , especially young people. come away with a skewed idea of propriery. Some sports fans have certainly go tten a skewed message. While Knight alone can 't be held accountable for the disturbing, ever-widemng distance between sports and sportsmanship, he has played a prominent role by flaying authoriry. ... His firing was overdue. TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Monday, Sept. 18, the 262nd day of 2000. There are I 04 days left in the year.

The 2001 reunion is scheduled for August. Demonstrating a selective zeal for-justice Congressman Frank Wolf of Virginia one of the nation's most informed human rights advocates - is issuing an urgent warning. In letters to his colleagues, the president, the secretary of state, national securiry adviser Samuel Berger, and J;tichard Holbrooke, our permanent representative to the United Nations, he writes: "I am extremely troubled to learn about the possibiliry that the Government of Sudan could be given a seat on the Securiry Council of the United Nations. This calls into question the integriry of that body on the heels of the Sudan government's recent spate of bombing in southern Sudan of innocent civilians, churches, and relief agef)cies - such as Doctors Without Borders, the International Red Cross, and the World Food Programme." Moreover, in May, Amnesry International - reporting on the involvement of Chinese, Canadian and other countries' oil companies in Sudan -disclosed the results of the ethnic cleansing by Sudan's government of civilians livi ng in oil fields and the areas surrounding them: To provide "a secure environment" for these oil operations, Amn esry International reveals, there have been "massive human rights abuses - forced displacemen t, aerial bombardments, strafing villages from helicopter gunships, unlawful killings, torture including rape and abduction." This is in addition to the continuing ens lavement by Sudanese government forces of black Christians and animists in southern Sudan. Last year, our House of Representatives passed a resolution, almost unanimously, condemning that regime for "deliberately and systematically committing genocide in south· Peru. Jackson demanded justice for an Amer· ican, Lori Berenson, who has been imprisoned in Peru :ind is to have a new trial. Jackson demanded of the startled Fujimori that Lori Berenson be released immediately. Peru's president, however, said that his· coun-· try's judicial system is in charge of the case. · Jackson then pledged to go to Peru and negotiate for her release on the grounds of mercy and justice.

Court finding Christ amid the tea and cookies James Kilpatrick NEA COLUMNIST members engage in games that involve, among other things, learning Bible verses. Ms. Fournier then relates a Bible story and explains how it applies to club members' lives. The club closes with prayer. Finally, Ms. Fournier distributes treats and the Bible verses for memorization." In a deposition, Pastor Fournier explained that "we are teaching morals from a Christian perspective." Central to this perspective, he said, "is the children's acceptance of Jesus Christ into their lives." To the children who do not know C hrist, "we would say, you need C hrist as your Lord and Savior so that you might overcome these, you know, feelings ofjealousy or the desire to do bad things to those who have somehow hurt you." · . Question before the court: If the club's request were granted. would it violate the First Amendment to the Constitution? A panel of the U.S. 2nd Circuit ]a,t year ruled 2-1 that, yes, the Cons~tution would be violated by letting the club meet in the schoolho use. In a strikingly similar case involving a Good News C lub 111 Missouri , a panel of the 8th Circuit in 1994 came to precisely tb e opposite conclusion. It held 2-1 that, no, the Constitution would not be violated by letting the children use a school room The Constitution says only that Congress (and by extens ion States and school district\) "shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohib iting the free exercise thereof." Over the past 38 yem, since the landmark New York case of Engel v. Vitale, the high court has applied so much gloss to the religion clauses that their meaning can only dimly be discerned. In 1993 the court construed the very New York education law that is at issue here. The Lamb's Chapel evangelical church sought permission to use school facilities for showing a series of Christian films on family values. The court ruled unanimously that permission had to be granted. New York 's policy permitted use o( school properry "for the presentation of all views about family issues except those dealing with the subject matter from a religiuus standpoint."This amounted to unconstitutional discrin1ination based upon point of view. The fact' in the Milford ca'e may be significamly different from the facts Ill Lamb's C hapel. The Lamb's C hapel movies were for grown-ups, not impressionable children, and though the films were pervasively Christian, they did not involve viewero; _in prayero; or Dible readings. It may be a questi on of degree. How churchy is too churchy' How is "viewpoint" to be distinguished from "content"? l would vote to accommodate the Good News C lub in th e same way that schools accommodate after- hour c hess clubs. Scout troops and qu1lt1ng bees. The state can make room for an hour of C hristians and conkies. Let tolemnce prevail!

MILITARY NEWS KILPATRICK'S VIEW The Supreme Court can no more escape religion than a field of corn can escape a flock of crows. They live for each other. Now a case has come along that perfectly illustrates the complexities that arise under th e religio us clauses of the First Amendment. Let us pray. The case involves the Good News Club of Milford, N.Y. Across the country, 4,400 such clubs function as part of the Child Evangelism Fellowship, a Christian missionary organization. Each club serves children aged 6 through 12. The Milford club formerly met at tbe Milford Center Communiry Bible Church. For reasons not relevant to the issue, the club in 1996 sought a new venue. Pastor Steven Fournier applied to the Milford Central School for permission to meet atier school once a week in the school cafeteria. The district's superintendent of schools denied the application. Everybody wound up in federal court, and now the case is pending in the Supreme Court on the club's petition for review. Under New York law, local sc hool boards may adopt their own conforming regulations for communiry use of school properry. In 1992 the M1lford district board adopted ·a policy containing two key points: (1) School facilities "may be used by district residents for holding social, civic and recreation· .!1 meetings and entertain ment eventl and other usc'S pertaining to the welfare of the communi· ry ..." (2) "School premises shall not be used by any individual or organization for religious purposes." A typical meeting of the Good News Club in Milford follows this pattern : "The club opens its session with Ms. Darleen Fo urnier taking attendance. As she calls a child's name, if the child recites a Bible verse the child receives a treat. After attendance, the club sings songs. Next club Tom Bartl ey, stc;ward; Rick Macmnber, assistant steward; Maxine Dyer, lady assistant steward; Opal Dyer, secretary; Mike Macon1b• r. treasurer; M ic helle Baird, Pomona; Martha Bartley, Flora ; Robert F~tty, executive comtuitteemen. The meeting was conducted by Patry Dyer and final plans for a chic ken barbecue on Sept. 24 were made. Eldon Barrows. legislative agent , reported that President Bill Clinton vetoed the proposed changes in the estate tax law. Barrows also discussed the way that people get put on the ballot for election and noted that the Central Committee is the most important office. It was reported that several members participated in the talent finals at the Ohio Stat<; Fair. Michael Macomber tied for first place in the variety act category and Janis and Stacy Macomber placed second in the reading category for their ages . The meeting time was changed for regular meetings to 7:30 p.m. Plans for a hayride and wiener roast to be held on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. were co mpleted. T Plans were also finalized to co-host a Meet the Candidates Day on S<·pt. 24, which will begin at 2:30 p.m. at the Grange Hall w1th Meigs Counry Pomona Grange.

Dr. Lee had planned to plead guilry to improperly downloading classified defense documents at the Los Alamos laboratory. But the plea hearing has been postpo ned until tomorrow. Federal prosecutors are expected to drop the 58 other counts against him. allowing him to go free. The remaining count does not indicate any intent to harm the United States or assist a foreign nation, the central claim the government initially sought to prove. This is a stunning turnabout for government officials who previously insisted that the downloaded data contained the "crown jewels" of America's nuclear arsenal that could change th e global balance of power if transferred to a hostile nati 0 n .... Judge Parker ordered the government to turn over for his review thousands of pages of documents this week, including classified material compiled by the Energy Department on racial profiling tactics and State Department records on indivi duals who breached national security but were not prosecuted. In ending the case, the government will conveniently avoid those disclosures. But Congress and the public should not be satisfied with this resolution. President Clinton should appoint a politically independent person of national standing to review the entire case .... If racial pro· filing is found , investigators and prosecutors should be called to account for their ·conduct. • Albuquerque (N.M.) Journal, 011 rhe .firillg of lndiafla basketball coad1 Bobby Knight: Indiana Universiry finally did what should have been done yeats ago in firing basketball coac h Bobby Knight. For 29 years, Knight's stellar winning record was repeatedly trumped by reports, eve n video, of his boorish behavior on and off the court. Knight publicly yelled obscenities, banged tables, threw things. He choked a player in 1997 and repeatedly berated referees and . other officials with whom he did not agree. Off-camera, there were reports he stuffed a fan in a garbage ca n, assaulted a security ufficer in Puerto Rico, fired a blank gun at a reporter, threw a vase at a secretary. Knight won three NCAA champ ionships with the Hoosiers, amassed 763 wins and guided the U.S. Olympic team to a gold medal in 1984. For too long, these ends were allowed to outweigh Knight's uncivil means. His behavior became an accepted part of the game, part of IU's infamy, an attraction. As a result, even the protests in the wake of his firing have been misguided: Fans are cursing Indiana Unive rsiry President Myles Brand and burning in effigy the freshman whose run-in with Knight was the final straw.... What's wrong wit~ this picture? Everything. When authority figures misbehave and get away with it - jn fact, are rewarded in spite of it - others , especially young people. come away with a skewed idea of propriery. Some sports fans have certainly go tten a skewed message. While Knight alone can 't be held accountable for the disturbing, ever-widemng distance between sports and sportsmanship, he has played a prominent role by flaying authoriry. ... His firing was overdue. TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Monday, Sept. 18, the 262nd day of 2000. There are I 04 days left in the year.

The 2001 reunion is scheduled for August. Demonstrating a selective zeal for-justice Congressman Frank Wolf of Virginia one of the nation's most informed human rights advocates - is issuing an urgent warning. In letters to his colleagues, the president, the secretary of state, national securiry adviser Samuel Berger, and J;tichard Holbrooke, our permanent representative to the United Nations, he writes: "I am extremely troubled to learn about the possibiliry that the Government of Sudan could be given a seat on the Securiry Council of the United Nations. This calls into question the integriry of that body on the heels of the Sudan government's recent spate of bombing in southern Sudan of innocent civilians, churches, and relief agef)cies - such as Doctors Without Borders, the International Red Cross, and the World Food Programme." Moreover, in May, Amnesry International - reporting on the involvement of Chinese, Canadian and other countries' oil companies in Sudan -disclosed the results of the ethnic cleansing by Sudan's government of civilians livi ng in oil fields and the areas surrounding them: To provide "a secure environment" for these oil operations, Amn esry International reveals, there have been "massive human rights abuses - forced displacemen t, aerial bombardments, strafing villages from helicopter gunships, unlawful killings, torture including rape and abduction." This is in addition to the continuing ens lavement by Sudanese government forces of black Christians and animists in southern Sudan. Last year, our House of Representatives passed a resolution, almost unanimously, condemning that regime for "deliberately and systematically committing genocide in south· Peru. Jackson demanded justice for an Amer· ican, Lori Berenson, who has been imprisoned in Peru :ind is to have a new trial.

Court finding Christ amid the tea and cookies James Kilpatrick NEA COLUMNIST members engage in games that involve, among other things, learning Bible verses. Ms. Fournier then relates a Bible story and explains how it applies to club members' lives. The club closes with prayer. Finally, Ms. Fournier distributes treats and the Bible verses for memorization." In a deposition, Pastor Fournier explained that "we are teaching morals from a Christian perspective." Central to this perspective, he said, "is the children's acceptance of Jesus Christ into their lives." To the children who do not know C hrist, "we would say, you need C hrist as your Lord and Savior so that you might overcome these, you know, feelings ofjealousy or the desire to do bad things to those who have somehow hurt you." · . Question before the court: If the club's request were granted. would it violate the First Amendment to the Constitution? A panel of the U.S. 2nd Circuit ]a,t year ruled 2-1 that, yes, the Cons~tution would be violated by letting the club meet in the schoolho use. In a strikingly similar case involving a Good News C lub 111 Missouri , a panel of the 8th Circuit in 1994 came to precisely tb e opposite conclusion. It held 2-1 that, no, the Constitution would not be violated by letting the children use a school room The Constitution says only that Congress (and by extens ion States and school district\) "shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohib iting the free exercise thereof." Over the past 38 yem, since the landmark New York case of Engel v. Vitale, the high court has applied so much gloss to the religion clauses that their meaning can only dimly be discerned. In 1993 the court construed the very New York education law that is at issue here. The Lamb's Chapel evangelical church sought permission to use school facilities for showing a series of Christian films on family values. The court ruled unanimously that permission had to be granted. New York 's policy permitted use o( school properry "for the presentation of all views about family issues except those dealing with the subject matter from a religiuus standpoint."This amounted to unconstitutional discrin1ination based upon point of view. The fact' in the Milford ca'e may be significamly different from the facts Ill Lamb's C hapel. The Lamb's C hapel movies were for grown-ups, not impressionable children, and though the films were pervasively Christian, they did not involve viewero; _in prayero; or Dible readings. It may be a questi on of degree. How churchy is too churchy' How is "viewpoint" to be distinguished from "content"? l would vote to accommodate the Good News C lub in th e same way that schools accommodate after- hour c hess clubs. Scout troops and qu1lt1ng bees. The state can make room for an hour of C hristians and conkies. Let tolemnce prevail!

MILITARY NEWS KILPATRICK'S VIEW The Supreme Court can no more escape religion than a field of corn can escape a flock of crows. They live for each other. Now a case has come along that perfectly illustrates the complexities that arise under th e religio us clauses of the First Amendment. Let us pray. The case involves the Good News Club of Milford, N.Y. Across the country, 4,400 such clubs function as part of the Child Evangelism Fellowship, a Christian missionary organization. Each club serves children aged 6 through 12. The Milford club formerly met at tbe Milford Center Communiry Bible Church. For reasons not relevant to the issue, the club in 1996 sought a new venue. Pastor Steven Fournier applied to the Milford Central School for permission to meet atier school once a week in the school cafeteria. The district's superintendent of schools denied the application. Everybody wound up in federal court, and now the case is pending in the Supreme Court on the club's petition for review. Under New York law, local sc hool boards may adopt their own conforming regulations for communiry use of school properry. In 1992 the M1lford district board adopted ·a policy containing two key points: (1) School facilities "may be used by district residents for holding social, civic and recreation· .!1 meetings and entertain ment eventl and other usc'S pertaining to the welfare of the communi· ry ..." (2) "School premises shall not be used by any individual or organization for religious purposes." A typical meeting of the Good News Club in Milford follows this pattern : "The club opens its session with Ms. Darleen Fo urnier taking attendance.

Closing arguments are scheduled for M o nday morning, with j u ry deliberations to follow. During three days of testimony, jurors heard written confessio ns fiom Sells, watched a videotaped confession and listened to gripping testimony from an I t-year-old girl who also was attacked by Sells but survived . The girl, Krystal Surles, said she tried to renuin still and silent on the top of a bunk bed as she watched Sells slit the throat of Kay- . lene, a family friend she had been visiting. She said Sells then c ut her throat, and she waited for him to leave befo re seeking help. In a written confession read in court, Sells admitted to sexually assaulting !Uylene before slashing her throat, a combinatio n that could land him on death row. SeUs pleaded guilty to attempted murder fo r the attack on Krystal but pleaded innocent to capital murder in Kaylene's death . For Sells to be convicted of capital murder, prosec utors must show that he committed a felony while killing. Although Sells confessed to killing the girl, his attorney, Victor Garcia, worked to show that no physical evidence could prove Kaylene was raped and suggested that Sells was pressured into making the admission. Since his arrest Jan. 2, Sells has confessed to at least a dozen murders in seven states. He has only been charged in o ne other case, the May 1999 slaying of a 13-year-old Lexington, Ky. , girl. Gay officer faces discharge LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. (AP) - Army officials on Sunday recommended an honorable discharge for Reserve Lt. Steve May, an openly gay Arizona lawmaker who the Army said violated its "don't ask, don't tell" policy by acknowledging his sexuality during a legisbtive debate. Offici2ls wouldn't disclose why a panel of three Army colonels recommended an honorable discharge after the Army had pursued an other-than-honorable, general discharge. Honorable discharges are typical for soldiers forced to leave the military because of sexual orientation. "We presented the position that we thought was justified in this case," said M'\i.

May's record is unblemished and he has been rated an exceptional officer. "We believe the board ignored the facts and ignored the law," Wolf said. May said he still considers himself.a member of the reserves. "I'm still in," he said Sunday. 'Til continu e to serve until the appeals process is exhausted." The discharge recommendation will be reviewed by an appointing authority, typically an Army general, and then be sent to Department of Defense personnel authorities, officials said. Until that review is completed, likely within rhree months, May will continue to serve two days a month in the reserves. Monday, Saptember 18, 2000 Atlantis flies away from outfitted space station SPACE CENTER, H ouston (AP) - Space ;huttle Atlantis rocketed away from the international space station early Monday, leaving the cosmic outpost fully stoc ked and freshly outfitted for its first inhabitants. T he spacecraft separated some 240 miles above Russia, a few tninutes late because of minor computer trouble. Afterwa rd , pilot Scott Altman flew Atlantis around the station twice w hile his crewmatcs took pictures and videotape of the shinin g outpost. "Watching the sunrise and sunset, and the way it illuminated the solar arrays o n the service module was just phenomenal. It sparkled like a jewel out there against the blue background of the oceans. A very, very beautiful sight fo r us," Altman said. , The craft flew together for eight days , during which Atlantis' seven-man crew completed all of their assigned tasks and even some planned for later trlissions. "This crew has certainly laid out the red carpet for the first crew to come aboard the internatio nal space station," space station deputy nunager Robert Cabana said. "I rhink they aacomplished everything we asked them to do, everything we wished they could do, and I rhink about everything we <harned that they could do." During their five days inside, the shuttle astronauts outfitted the station with five new batteries, a toilet, oxygen generator and treadmill in the new Russian-built service module Zvezda. During a spacewalk a week ago, they hooked up power, data and TV cables.They also stocked the cabinets with more than 6,000 pounds of food, clothes, toile[fies, ear plug\. office supplies, trash bags, vacuum cleaners and other gear. All of that will be waiting when the first station crew arrives for a four-month stay, scheduled to begin Nov. I. Shuttle Cmdr. Terrence Wilcutt said astronaut Bill Shepherd, who will lead a c rew of two cosmonauts, won't have any trouble Jmking his home inside Z vezda. " It seem ed like a new house, which is exactly what it was. It's ready to go. We tidied it up, Idi him a couple of no ies and I think it's ready for him to m ove into," W ik utt said. Atlantis' crew even warmed up the beds for Shepherd and company: Each of Atlantis' crew tried Zvezda's sleeping accommodatio ns fo r a night, Wilcutt said. All that remains for Atlantis' crew is a bit o f well-earned rebxatio n time and boding preparations. Tropical Storm Gordon is not expected in interfere with a scheduled Wednesday return to the Kennedy Space Center.

Monday, Saptember 18, 2000 Atlantis flies away from outfitted space station SPACE CENTER, H ouston (AP) - Space ;huttle Atlantis rocketed away from the international space station early Monday, leaving the cosmic outpost fully stoc ked and freshly outfitted for its first inhabitants. T he spacecraft separated some 240 miles above Russia, a few tninutes late because of minor computer trouble. Afterwa rd , pilot Scott Altman flew Atlantis around the station twice w hile his crewmatcs took pictures and videotape of the shinin g outpost. "Watching the sunrise and sunset, and the way it illuminated the solar arrays o n the service module was just phenomenal. It sparkled like a jewel out there against the blue background of the oceans. A very, very beautiful sight fo r us," Altman said. , The craft flew together for eight days , during which Atlantis' seven-man crew completed all of their assigned tasks and even some planned for later trlissions. "This crew has certainly laid out the red carpet for the first crew to come aboard the internatio nal space station," space station deputy nunager Robert Cabana said. "I rhink they aacomplished everything we asked them to do, everything we wished they could do, and I rhink about everything we <harned that they could do." During their five days inside, the shuttle astronauts outfitted the station with five new batteries, a toilet, oxygen generator and treadmill in the new Russian-built service module Zvezda. During a spacewalk a week ago, they hooked up power, data and TV cables.They also stocked the cabinets with more than 6,000 pounds of food, clothes, toile[fies, ear plug\. office supplies, trash bags, vacuum cleaners and other gear. All of that will be waiting when the first station crew arrives for a four-month stay, scheduled to begin Nov. I. Shuttle Cmdr. Terrence Wilcutt said astronaut Bill Shepherd, who will lead a c rew of two cosmonauts, won't have any trouble Jmking his home inside Z vezda. " It seem ed like a new house, which is exactly what it was. It's ready to go. We tidied it up, Idi him a couple of no ies and I think it's ready for him to m ove into," W ik utt said. Atlantis' crew even warmed up the beds for Shepherd and company: Each of Atlantis' crew tried Zvezda's sleeping accommodatio ns fo r a night, Wilcutt said. All that remains for Atlantis' crew is a bit o f well-earned rebxatio n time and boding preparations. Tropical Storm Gordon is not expected in interfere with a scheduled Wednesday return to the Kennedy Space Center. "The forecast actually says that be hind the storm, it should be pretty favorable weather conditions, so we're looking forward to those," mission operations representative Jeff Bantle said, but cautioned that it is too early to accurately predict.

My No. 1 aim is to give everyon~ a good time. If they learn somethtn~ too all the better. But 1t 1sn t worth doing if it isn't fun. And occasionally a student tells me about a deal that makes both of us feel good. This one was declared by Susan Mayo, from New Canaan, Conn. The auction escalated skyward, with East's three-spade rebid propelling Mayo into four hearts. Nonnally, West would lead .the spade two, low from honor-thml. East win.s with the ace and returns a spade to West's king. Then the best defense, given this layout, is 10 switch immediately to a trump . However, West staned with the spade king. After receiving an encouraging signal from partner, West cashed the diamond ace, then played a second spade: East won with the ace and contrnued with the jack for want of anythrng better to do. Now declarer had .lo play the trump suit without loss. Normally, one takes the frnesse, .but Mayo sroppell to count .the highcard points. She was m1ssrng 20, yet West had already produc.ed seven, the spade kmg and di amond ace.So, East, for her opening bid, had to have the remamder, including the heart krng. When relating the story, Susan told me that she thought the heart king would only drop singleton offside in one of my class deals, never in real life , but ... amazingly the king did fall under dummy's ace. It was then the work of a moment for Susan to draw West's other trumps and run the clubs for her contract. 25 South American tndlan 21- Alto, California 28 Solar dlok 29 Perfect numbers? 31 Demote 33 Kids 38 Above (poet) 40 Highway to the Fer North 41 u--(dog) 42 That dam agcy.t 43 Somothlng '' small 44 Hold on propeny 46 2,000, e.g . 47 Dole (out) 48 Again so Compaoo pl. 52 Lenaro olthe 6-+--r-t--r-• ·53 ·~hlbol Exploolve lnHo.

And occasionally a student tells me about a deal that makes both of us feel good. This one was declared by Susan Mayo, from New Canaan, Conn. The auction escalated skyward, with East's three-spade rebid propelling Mayo into four hearts. Nonnally, West would lead .the spade two, low from honor-thml. East win.s with the ace and returns a spade to West's king. Then the best defense, given this layout, is 10 switch immediately to a trump . However, West staned with the spade king. After receiving an encouraging signal from partner, West cashed the diamond ace, then played a second spade: East won with the ace and contrnued with the jack for want of anythrng better to do. Now declarer had .lo play the trump suit without loss. Normally, one takes the frnesse, .but Mayo sroppell to count .the highcard points. She was m1ssrng 20, yet West had already produc.ed seven, the spade kmg and di amond ace.So, East, for her opening bid, had to have the remamder, including the heart krng. When relating the story, Susan told me that she thought the heart king would only drop singleton offside in one of my class deals, never in real life , but ... amazingly the king did fall under dummy's ace. It was then the work of a moment for Susan to draw West's other trumps and run the clubs for her contract. 25 South American tndlan 21- Alto, California 28 Solar dlok 29 Perfect numbers? 31 Demote 33 Kids 38 Above (poet) 40 Highway to the Fer North 41 u--(dog) 42 That dam agcy.t 43 Somothlng '' small 44 Hold on propeny 46 2,000, e.g . 47 Dole (out) 48 Again so Compaoo pl. 52 Lenaro olthe 6-+--r-t--r-• ·53 ·~hlbol Exploolve lnHo.

Jim Brown comes home to Browns CLEVELAND (AP) - On the day the Cleveland Browns got their first home victory, an old friend came home, too. Jim Brown was honored .along with Cleveland's other Hall of Fame players on Sunday during halftime ceremonies of the Browns' 23-20 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was Brown's first visit to Cleveland's new lakefront stadium since the Browns returned to the NFL following a three-year hiatus. "It's a wonderful place," Brown said while standing on the sideline before the game. "It looks like it would have been a great place to play." Considered by many to be the greatest running back in NFL history, Brown, the leading rusher in C leveland history, still holds a special place in the hearts of Browns fans. However, when Cleveland wel ;:omed its team back last year, No. 32 wasn't part of any the festivi ties surrounding the Browns' return . "I didn't want to come back until the time was right," Brown nisch said. "But I worked hard. We weren't just sitting around for seven weeks." Harnisch allowed four runs and five hits in seven innings with six strikeouts and no walks. "When Pete came back, the whole pitching staff was lifted up psychologically," McKeon said. "He's the heart and soul of the staff. Guys ,look up to him." Reliever Dennys Reyes threw the Reds' 91st wild pitch of the season in the ninth inning, rying the NL record set by Houston (1970) and Philadelphia (1989). The major league mark is 94 by Texas (1986). · John Snyder (3-1 0) allowed six runs in five innings. After winning three straight in June, Snyder has gone 15 starts without a win , dating to June 22, going 0-8 in that span. "Let's just say he's not pitching like we know he's capable of Ashley Ambrose returned Steve Beuerlein 's interception 3 7 yards to set up Morten Andersen's second field goal with 4:10 to play.
