Ethel Jenkins, spokeswoman for the Oh10 Division of Liquor Co ntrol, said Tuesday that no waivers have been granted for t!us Sunday mght. Fewer than half of Ohio 's 13.400 bars, restaurants and clubs - 5,400 - hold permits that allow Sunday liquor and wme sales, even 1f it IS New Year's Eve. But at 12·01 a.m. Monday, one minute into the new year, booze cap flow freely at other establishments with bquor perfru rs, at least until closmg t1me. That would be etther 1 a m. or 2:30 a.m. , depending on the type of permit. And people holding private parties at home should stock up. Fewer than one-fourth of Ohio's 9,600 ca rryout stores have Sunday hcenses.

Instead , those students w1ll get a diScounted rate, satd M ary Jo Waldock, interim dean of umversity college. The c hange only affec ts non •credit classes. The sc hoo l hasn't changed its policy tha t allows Oh10 reSidents over age 60 to .aud1t for-cred1t courses at no cost when there is space · available. "We adjusted the policy so we could maintain access but do 1t in a sensible way," Waldock satd. All Ohwans age 60 and older can take college classes for free at the state's pubhc colleges and universities. At most schools, though, the senior students can't get cred1t for th e co urses. State lawmakers in 1998 approved a bill that gives lowmcome Ohwans age 60 and older free tuition at any state college or university. allowing them to take classes for credit at no c harge. At Toledo, a wine tasting class th at once was fre e will now cos t $187 Yoga classes w1ll cost $85 and a fitness class w1ll be $38 .25. Last year, about 1,400 people took part m the sc hool 's Program 60, which the univer- Slty sa1d cnsts about $1 70,000 a year to run . "What we found was 1t wasn 't fi scally responSible," W~l­ dock sat d. Waldeck said th e program's cos ts are not offset by any state or loca l tax fundmg. Th e university sa1d, starting Monday, students 60 and older can take the classes at a 15 pC(cent disco unt on most co ntinmn g ed ucatiOn programs. A SO percent discount w1ll be availc able for certam computer-skiils training classes. · Spencer Stone, a 63-yearold who taken classes at the umverstty, wasn 't upset about the changes. · "Fmt of all, the courses are cheap," he satd "Most of those courses run about S60 or S70. Seems pretty reasonable." Bowling Green State University offers a I 0 percent discount on noncredit classes for senior citizens, said Cindy Smith, th e university's director of community classes. Program s that encourage se nior Citizens to return to the classroom are becoming man; popular statewide, said M1chael Brown, a spokesman for the Oh10 Board of Regents "It's kmd of an emergmg factor," Brown sa1d.

From supported Gore and would Jn so in the campaign, but he told friends in the mnlia that his attempts to pit one economic group against another and portray big business as the enemy of the people would not work. "I guarantee ' 1t," he said. Of co urse he was right. Wi th DLC chamnan j oe Lieberman on the ticket, From and other top DLC strategists remained silent throughout the e<impaign . But last week, they resumed their war syith the party's left wing, chargin g that Gore's retro, leftfst message was the chief reason for his narrow defeat - that it had driven '(Way the vety voters he need to win th e presidency. "Bush won the white working class (people making between $35,000 and $75,000 a year) by 13 points. The message does not seem to have prevailed with the group it was supposed to be aimed at," said Will Marshall, who helped to found the DLC organization that backed Bill Clinton's rise to the presidency. Gore's business- hating, anti-wea lth message - attacking the oil, health-care, drug and insurance compan ies - sou nd ed more like Walter Mondale than Bill C linton. It was oldJ economy politics instead of th e new Internet , investor-class eco nomy poli tics. Suc h leftist, social-welfare red me,it playc·d to educated academic elites and the party's urban, labor-un ion, and low-income minority base, but not to the swing, independent, suburban, middle-class, middle-American voters who owu stork in corporate America. " It's no ;enet that I think the populism approach hurt us with critical '>wmg voters, particularly wired voters and men In th e new economy. We were hllrt because we were viewed in this election as being too liberal and too much in favor of big governm ent," From said at a press briefing last Friday. Mark Penn, who pulls for Clinton, said Gore's "populist me.11age is by itself a limiting message .... 1t had a lot of negative resonance w ith precisely th e voters Gore had to win to get above 50 percent 0 11 Elecnon Day.'' Gore, with a .strong, high - employment economy behind him, was unable to rise above that tf;re;hoiJ. Mu ch has been made of his edge in the popular vote, tho ugh the race ended in a statistical tic that contJin.s im portant voting trends that do no t bode well for r the Democrats. Gore won 90 percent of the bl ack vote with deeply disturbing racial appeals, but there's not much, if any, growth there for Democrats in the future. In fact, with younger, professional blacks identifYing themselves as independents, there are opportunities for the GOP to appeal to these upwardly mobile, more-entrepreneurial voters, who like school-c hoice vouchers and private Social Security investment accounts. Elsewhere, Bush made significant inroads into the Democrats' base constituencies, winning one-third of the Hispanic vote, 41 percent of the Asian vote, and 36 percent of the union household vote. But it was Gore's weakness among white voters that reflected the utter f.1ilure of his liberal, big-government, business-bashing pitch. He won only 43 perce nt of whites ·compared with 53 percent for Bush. Notably, he scored 10 percent higher among men . In a high -tech, Internet era of growing affluence among Ameri ca's new-eco nomy voters, Gore's cultural-warfare, smoke-stack pupu li11n lm Jo,t its appeal. From and Maf~ sh,11lnotc that almost all of the 22 million new jobs over tht: pa~t l'ight years are in nonmanu ... facrur ing sectors, w ith the income-range ratio tilting in favor of higher-income jobs. : A look at a councy-by-cou nty election mat' of the co untry shows that Gore's votes ca mt mostly from heavily concentrated Lirban areas in the Northeast and indmtrial Midwes~. Bush's vott::, on the other h ~md. was mot¢ broadly spread across the country, sweeping the entire Sou th and virtually all of the We<f~ ern pbins and mountain states .md parts of the M1dwt'1t, including Ohio, Indiana and Misso uri. In all, Bush ca rri ed 30 states to Gore's 20. Bush won a whoppin g 2,434, or 7H percent of all the co un ties, while Gore's vote was restric~­ ed to 677 heavily populated. counties.

Coal remams a significant source of electric in our area, although it has gone into decline in other parts of the country, thanks to environmental concerns. The time may b~ ripe for coal to make a resurgence as a prunary. national energy source. "1t is more evident than ever that coal is a key to ensuring that (those) with low or fixed incomes are not forced to choose between electricity and other life essentials," said ABEC charter member Nancy Dix. "Electricity from coal must continue to be part of America's strategy for meeting the growing demand for affordable electricity and . preserving an equal comnlitment to protecting the envi ronm en t," she added. Environmentists can take comfort in the fact that emissions of pollutants harmful to human health have decreased more than 30 percent since 1970. R ecent court rulings and fede ral directives are ensuring that toxic emissions are bemg furth er reduced. The recently-resolved controversy over use of ammonia to reduce emissio ns at the Gavin Plant was generated by these demands. AEP's conforming to those directives and the public's wishes tell us that cleaner air an d coal usage may be expensiVe, but are not inc ompatible. Arm ed with that information. the coal industty would have enough ammunition to enter the dialogue on energy needs. The ball is now in the upcoming admimstration's co urt. Indica" ti ons are Rush will be more tocused on domestic iss ues. Energy concerns at this time may be co nsidered as fleeting as the snow, but the facts tell us it's a problem that wo n't go away, especially if a dry and hot summer awaits us in 2001. M aking choic.es between h'eating and eating is not an option.most Americans should have to m,\ke, especially if we have the reso urces ~ t hand to meet all of our energy needs.

"I guarantee ' 1t," he said. Of co urse he was right. Wi th DLC chamnan j oe Lieberman on the ticket, From and other top DLC strategists remained silent throughout the e<impaign . But last week, they resumed their war syith the party's left wing, chargin g that Gore's retro, leftfst message was the chief reason for his narrow defeat - that it had driven '(Way the vety voters he need to win th e presidency. "Bush won the white working class (people making between $35,000 and $75,000 a year) by 13 points. The message does not seem to have prevailed with the group it was supposed to be aimed at," said Will Marshall, who helped to found the DLC organization that backed Bill Clinton's rise to the presidency. Gore's business- hating, anti-wea lth message - attacking the oil, health-care, drug and insurance compan ies - sou nd ed more like Walter Mondale than Bill C linton. It was oldJ economy politics instead of th e new Internet , investor-class eco nomy poli tics. Suc h leftist, social-welfare red me,it playc·d to educated academic elites and the party's urban, labor-un ion, and low-income minority base, but not to the swing, independent, suburban, middle-class, middle-American voters who owu stork in corporate America. " It's no ;enet that I think the populism approach hurt us with critical '>wmg voters, particularly wired voters and men In th e new economy. We were hllrt because we were viewed in this election as being too liberal and too much in favor of big governm ent," From said at a press briefing last Friday. Mark Penn, who pulls for Clinton, said Gore's "populist me.11age is by itself a limiting message .... 1t had a lot of negative resonance w ith precisely th e voters Gore had to win to get above 50 percent 0 11 Elecnon Day.'' Gore, with a .strong, high - employment economy behind him, was unable to rise above that tf;re;hoiJ. Mu ch has been made of his edge in the popular vote, tho ugh the race ended in a statistical tic that contJin.s im portant voting trends that do no t bode well for r the Democrats. Gore won 90 percent of the bl ack vote with deeply disturbing racial appeals, but there's not much, if any, growth there for Democrats in the future. In fact, with younger, professional blacks identifYing themselves as independents, there are opportunities for the GOP to appeal to these upwardly mobile, more-entrepreneurial voters, who like school-c hoice vouchers and private Social Security investment accounts. Elsewhere, Bush made significant inroads into the Democrats' base constituencies, winning one-third of the Hispanic vote, 41 percent of the Asian vote, and 36 percent of the union household vote. But it was Gore's weakness among white voters that reflected the utter f.1ilure of his liberal, big-government, business-bashing pitch. He won only 43 perce nt of whites ·compared with 53 percent for Bush. Notably, he scored 10 percent higher among men . In a high -tech, Internet era of growing affluence among Ameri ca's new-eco nomy voters, Gore's cultural-warfare, smoke-stack pupu li11n lm Jo,t its appeal. From and Maf~ sh,11lnotc that almost all of the 22 million new jobs over tht: pa~t l'ight years are in nonmanu ... facrur ing sectors, w ith the income-range ratio tilting in favor of higher-income jobs. : A look at a councy-by-cou nty election mat' of the co untry shows that Gore's votes ca mt mostly from heavily concentrated Lirban areas in the Northeast and indmtrial Midwes~. Bush's vott::, on the other h ~md. was mot¢ broadly spread across the country, sweeping the entire Sou th and virtually all of the We<f~ ern pbins and mountain states .md parts of the M1dwt'1t, including Ohio, Indiana and Misso uri. In all, Bush ca rri ed 30 states to Gore's 20. Bush won a whoppin g 2,434, or 7H percent of all the co un ties, while Gore's vote was restric~­ ed to 677 heavily populated. counties.

Coal remams a significant source of electric in our area, although it has gone into decline in other parts of the country, thanks to environmental concerns. The time may b~ ripe for coal to make a resurgence as a prunary. national energy source. "1t is more evident than ever that coal is a key to ensuring that (those) with low or fixed incomes are not forced to choose between electricity and other life essentials," said ABEC charter member Nancy Dix. "Electricity from coal must continue to be part of America's strategy for meeting the growing demand for affordable electricity and . preserving an equal comnlitment to protecting the envi ronm en t," she added. Environmentists can take comfort in the fact that emissions of pollutants harmful to human health have decreased more than 30 percent since 1970. R ecent court rulings and fede ral directives are ensuring that toxic emissions are bemg furth er reduced. The recently-resolved controversy over use of ammonia to reduce emissio ns at the Gavin Plant was generated by these demands. AEP's conforming to those directives and the public's wishes tell us that cleaner air an d coal usage may be expensiVe, but are not inc ompatible.

(AP) Marshall showed that there's life after Randy Moss and Chad Pennington. The Thundering Herd beat Cincinnati 25-14 Wednesday in front of 26,018 fans at the Silverdomc. The victory gave Marshall a three-b'>me winning streak in the Motor City Bowl after the Herd lost the inaugural game ill' 1997. "I hope you never get tired of us coming," Marshall coach...._ Bob Pruett said. Marshall (8- 5) won six of its last seven games in what was expected to be a rebuilding year after Pennington graduated. Moss, who played for the Thundering Herd for two years, is in his third NFL season. "One guy don't make a football team," Pruett said. "Certainly, we've had some great players here. But we've won 58 games in five yeors. One or two guys don't do that."

NFL, and that's something that's obvious to us," St. Louis . Rams tight end Roland Williams said. "We're glad everybody else can see it." Faulk was a last-mjnute scratch for the Panthers game in Week 9 when loose cartilage locked up in h1s right knee, and he underwent arthroscopic surgery the follo~­ ing day. He missed the next game. and the R.ams used him sparingly tlie two games after that, which didn't keep him from setting an NFL record with 26 touchdowns . He also topped 2,000 yards rushing and receiving for the second straight season. The first half of the season, Faulk was probably the MVP favorite. "I think once I got injured, the talk went away," Faulk said. "Just deciding to get it done when I did was probably the best thing I did. I guess it was just go,od liming on our part.'' Last season, teammate Kurt Warner was the MVP. "The guy, I felt, deserved it as much as anybody last year, and definitely deserves it this year," Warner said. "He'd get my vote every year." Faulk, 27, received 24 votes from a nationwide panel of SO sports writers and broadcasters. Philadelphia quarterback Donovan McNabb (11) was second, followed by Tennessee running back Eddie George (8), Oakland quarterback Rich Gannon (5), Indianapolis quarterback Peyton Manning (1) and Baltimore linebacker Ray Lewis (1 ). Faulk set the NFL record with 2,429 yards last year. This year, he set a record with three four- TD games and totaled 2,189 yards, second behind Edgerrin Jamc<' 2,303.

The first win occurred when John Mohan, Dan Morse, Stevie Robinson , John Sutherlin, Bobby Wolff and Kit Woolsey collected the. gold medals in the Senior · Teams. They . won the 23-round all-play-all event ahead of France and Sweden. In this deal, Wolff made a slam not bid at the other table, to gain 13 intemational match points. Morse's jump to four diamonds was a splinter bid. It announced the values to bid four spades with at most a singleton diamond. South drove the auction to six spades via a control-bid (cue-bid) of five diamonds to show the ace. Wolff won the diamond-king lead with his ace, ruffed a diamond in the dummy, and called for the club king. When East covered with the ace, declarer ruffed, drew trumps, pitched his other two diamond losers on the queenjack of clubs, ·and conceded only bne trick to the heart ace. Although it is easier to say than do, East should not have covered with the club ace. He should have played low as if he had never even heard about the club ace. South was (almost!) certain to have a club void because he hadn't used Blackwood on the second round. If East had played low smooth· ly, I think Wolff would have ruffed and maneuvered to trump all of his low diamonds in the dummy. With this layout, that would have worked fine. gymnast !THURSDAY . !~..--~oBL_l:::::::==~.J .HILL'S SELF STORACE Now laking applications lor Baby Silting Service. · Plenty ol play room, a lot of activity to make the day more enjoyable.

The first win occurred when John Mohan, Dan Morse, Stevie Robinson , John Sutherlin, Bobby Wolff and Kit Woolsey collected the. gold medals in the Senior · Teams. They . won the 23-round all-play-all event ahead of France and Sweden. In this deal, Wolff made a slam not bid at the other table, to gain 13 intemational match points. Morse's jump to four diamonds was a splinter bid. It announced the values to bid four spades with at most a singleton diamond. South drove the auction to six spades via a control-bid (cue-bid) of five diamonds to show the ace. Wolff won the diamond-king lead with his ace, ruffed a diamond in the dummy, and called for the club king. When East covered with the ace, declarer ruffed, drew trumps, pitched his other two diamond losers on the queenjack of clubs, ·and conceded only bne trick to the heart ace. Although it is easier to say than do, East should not have covered with the club ace. He should have played low as if he had never even heard about the club ace. South was (almost!) certain to have a club void because he hadn't used Blackwood on the second round. If East had played low smooth· ly, I think Wolff would have ruffed and maneuvered to trump all of his low diamonds in the dummy. With this layout, that would have worked fine. gymnast !THURSDAY . !~..--~oBL_l:::::::==~.J .HILL'S SELF STORACE Now laking applications lor Baby Silting Service. · Plenty ol play room, a lot of activity to make the day more enjoyable.

REED SENTINEL NEWS STAFF P OMEROY - Is there anything more . depressing than the sight of an abandoned ChriStmas tree, left at curbs! de· after the holidays? There are more consttuctive uses for a cut evergreen, once the tinsel and lights have been packed up for another year. The Ohio Deparonent of Natural Resources suggests that trees be used for mulch or compost, or as habitat for wintering wildlife. "Mulching, chipping or composting Chrisanas - treeS after the holidays i.• a wise alternative to just throwing them into landfills;' said Michael Canfield, chief of ODNR's Division of Recycling and Litter Prevention. Canfield said trees collected at curbside are often chipped and shredded into landscape mulch for local .park districts and municipal projects in those communities which offer a tree recycling program. If a community does not provide the service, there are other ways to recycle Chrisonas trees right at home. Trees can be chipped and composted in a· backy.rrd composting system. Using that material in a garden will improve soil, reduce weeds and help retain soil moisture. Meigs County Commissioner Jeff Thornton. Commissioner-elect Jim Sheets, Coroner Douglas Hunter and Prosecutor-elect Pat Story took their oaths of office Thursday. The oaths were administered by Meigs County Common Pleas Court Judge Fred W. Crow Ill. The officials will assume their posts next week. (Brian J.
