Jeffrey Crisler of the FPA-met with Middleport Village Council 10 discuss the existence of tricholoroethylcne and the danger to village residents. At the time, Crisler said that· there was no need for alarm, but said that the existence of any VOCs in a public water system was cause for concern. The maximum allowable level of trichloroethyelene is 5 ml/g, and drinking water showing that a level of 5 ml/g or higher is deemed hazardous, Crisler said Monday that he is "very surprised" that the level of trichlorotheylcne had decreased.so significantly, saying that VOCs generally remain in a water supply indefinitely, although gradual reduttions or increases are not uncommon. 'I'm smprised that the test shows that (trichlorocthylene) is not there, but it's possible that the levels have dissipated," Crisler said. "I hope it's accurate." Oisler said that while "anything is possible," he would be less surprised to see a level ()f 2 ml/g, or even 1 ml/g, rather than l}le undetectable level shown inTCCI's report Crisler said that he plans a trip to Middleport thi~ week_to perform a drinking water survey, and thai he will look more closely at the methods used to collect the sample that TCCI tested. The method of collection is a "very important consideration," Crisler said, because any errol'!l: th such as allowing air into the samp1e, WI'II render · e testing inaccurate. . • According to the Ohio EPA, water samples should be_collected directly from the well, while it · is pumping. A TCCI spokesman said Monday that the firm's . route. driver collected tbe sample at the well, but did not have other details available. · A spokespel'!lon for the Middleport Water Department said Tuesday that Village Supervisor Brent Manley ' had supervised the collection.of the water sample tested by TCCI, and thai the TCCI test results confirmed results of !CSts performed by a second Independent laboratory and the EPA.

Pass 3NT North By Phillip Alder This week we are looking at whether a declarer or the defender sit· tmg over lhe dummy should win the lir.;t trick or duck. Yesterday, we stan· ed with an elementary example of the holdup play. But 11 can gel more complicated. Against this three-no-trump conlract. West leads the hean six, and East puts in the queen, How should South proceed? Note South's rebid of two nolrump. Don't show a four-card major at this slage unless you have at least five clubs Balanced han.ds are meant for bidding no-trump. If North is interested in a 4-4 spade tit. he can always bid three spades next. South has ~even top tncks. Two more are available in diamonds -· maybe three if the fines.e works But what ts the heart pos1t1on? If hearts are splitting 4-3 or 6-1, there's no danger. So, worry aboul 5-2. Then, South must duck lhe first trick and win East's heart return. He lakes the diamond finesse at trick three, confi. dent his contract is safe. Could South safely duck two heart .tricks? Not if West is on the ball. Knowing he has no entry. Wesl might switch to spades, seumg up live tricks for the defense: two spades, two hearts and one diamond. Wtlrll you tempted to win trick one because your remaining jack-nine m1ght produce a second heart stop· per? If so, you probably forgot to use the Rule of Eleven West led the hean stx. So, there are live hearts (II - 6) higher than the six m the other three hands. And you 've seen them all· dummy's seven, East's queen, and your ace-Jack-nme. So, West must have the king-10.

Study targets · cities tough on homeless By LAURA PARKER USA Today · The "meanest streets" for the homeless are found in Atlanta, , Chicago, New York, Tucson and San Francisco, where homeless people are ticketed, arrested or swept from public places, according to a new survey of the nation's 50 largest cities. The cities were singled out in a new study by the Nau.·anal Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty, that concludes the crackdown on the homeless, begun in the midl990s. continues to expand. All 50 cities either have passed laws restricting panhandling or loitering or simply sweep homeless ::~!~:;~i:;:!~~:~~~~~i~~ I.

The center, one of the country's most vocal advocates for the homeless, has . often denounced the laws as an ineffective way to deal with home', less ness. But for the first time. said Maria Foscarinis, the center's director, sees a glimmer of hope. As cities from Seattle to Miami continue to adopt new laws penal·izing the behavior of the homeless, several are experimenting with new apJji'Oachr~ that would more efficienlly coordinate services for the homeless. "It's too soon to say, but it could be the beginning of a new trend, with cities simply seeing that criminalizing people's presence on the streets is not going to solve the problem," Foscarinis said. The " meanest" cities are considered most aggressive in their attempts to rein in the homeless. In San Francisco, home to 16,000 · homeless people, pol ice wrot" 16,000 tickets citing a range of violations last year.. , On the other hand, San FranCisco also has launched a a new civil rights program aimed at improvi ng services for the homeless. · "We are .a!"most at a cross- ' road<," Foscarinis said.

Not only did it allow her to send her daughtc;r. Eugenia Wonders, to Blessed Trinity Catholic School, she says she finally has a say in the type and quality of education her 13-yearold gets. She thanks the controversial choice program, which pays up to $5,000 for Eugenia and 6,200 other low-income public school children to attend 122 private schools, 89 of them parochial. But parent Stephanie Sandy sees it differently. She blames that same program for creating a hardship for public schools, taking away money for books and other resources for the more than 100,000 school children in the city's public school system, including her own. The public school system is expected to lose up to $25 million. "It means our classes will contin. ue to have too many children, will continue to lack needed space and that my seventh grader will continue to bring home books that should have been replaced years ago," said Sandy. Parents,'educators, politicians, students - virtually everyone - have joined in the fray over vouchers, .wHich lets poor parents use tax mooey to send c~ildren to private schools. Although Economist Milton Friedman first noated the idea in 1955, it ne.ver had a laboratory until it hit Milwaukee nine years ago. And now, a hot debate is about to get even hotter.
