By RICHARD CARELLI 1 Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON - Legal experts doubt the Supreme Court ever will let .state and local police ignore its 1966 Miranoa decision on criminal suspects' rights. But they say. a new federal appea,ls court ruling could ca~se the jus·tices to restudy the landmark ruling. • "If this goes \o the Supreme Court, the justices will have to decide whether they want to toss out more than 30 years of jurisprudence that stemmed from Miranda," said Stephen Saltzburg, a George Washington University law professor. "I don 't tliink.they' ll go for that." University of Michigan law professor Yale Kamisar said, " It would be an interesting battle, but I think Miranda would win out. " , . Millions of Americans have seen movie and TV police officers read suspects their rights. " You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say may !>e used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. . If you cannot afford one. an attorney will be appointed for you." Police nationwide have been giving such warnings before questioning criminal suspects in cus1ody ever si nce the Supreme Court_said they had to in a decision called Miranda vs. Arizona. Failure to do so often means a confession or incriminating remark made to police is inadmissible as evidence in court. ' In the 1966 ruling, the Supreme Court threw out an Arizona court's conviction ofErnesto Mi randa on charges of kidnapping and rape. Miranda, who was identified in a police lineup, confessed and signed a written statement without beil)g told he had a rig,ht to a lawyer. . : . The_decision was steeped in the constitutional protection ag3inst selfmcnmmatlon, but the court never explicitly said the Constitution ·requires such warnmgs to guard against police coercion. .' Ruhng in a Virgi nia bank robbery case this week, a three-judge panel of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said a long-ignored 1968 federal law trumped the Miranda decision and freed federal law cnforcell)ent officers from havi ng to give the familiar warnings in e'very case. . . That ruling is now binding law i~ the 4th Circuit's five states- Virginia, Maryland, North.Carolina, South Carolina and West Virginia. . Congress said such evidence could be used at trial aS long as federal judges are sure the statements were made vo luntarily. The federal law says comph ance with Miranda is just one factor·to ~c considered. Seven presidential administrationst Rcpublican and Democratic alike, have refused to enforce the 1968 law, ho ever, out of concern for its constitutionality. .• . · " We ... have determined the Supreme Court has concluded that (Miranda) is constitutionally based since ... it has applied it to the states as well," Attorney General Janet Reno said Thursday. " It would be up to the Supreme Court to make the determination that it was not constituti onally based. " The nation's highest court is far more conservative than it was 33 years ago. Several of its members -most notably ,Chi ef Justice William H. Rehnqutst - repeatedly have played down the Mir~nda decision's constitutional dimensions even as the court rebuffed numerous attempts to overturn it. ....,ere's no groundswell to get rid of Miranda," Kamisar said. ·"Most poli like 1t because it makes life simple. If it's nqt broken, why fix it?'' · . Virginia case likely will be refcnred to the full 4th Circuit coun, and 'tl\en, the Supreme Court. "This is not a case the Supreme Court would duckj ,.f the three-judge panel's reasoning is upheld by the entire appeals court, 'predicted Northwestern University law professor Ronald Allen. What if the Supreme Court agrees that the I~8 federal law is valid? "You'll see numerous state legislatures adopting state analogues," Allen said, leaving police forces free to. re-examine their policies on questioning criminal S~§peCtS. . But<perhaps not all states wou.ld see a need for change. " We're a Miranda stat~ and ~e'll stay that way," said Mike O'Neal, R-Hutchinson, chairman of the Kansas House Judiciary Committee. " In fact, we 're going thl! opposite direction. We now apply Miranda to juvenile cases." • F..euqc~onP~~ge~t .., . ~ tags, $20 plus costs; attempted possession, i • jail suspended to three days served, financial responsibility action (no two years probation; disonderly while insurance) suspension, $150 plus intoxicated, $25 plus costs; Marion costs, I0 days jail suspended to three Snider, Racine, DUI, $850 phis costs, days, orie ,year probation ; seat belt, six months jail suspended to 22 days $25 plus costs; Henry L.

Dear Aunt Maude, .1 ~anted to thank you for the valentine .which arrived F,r~day .. We have it displayed on the living room mantle w)\ere tl Will remain until we get another card. And ·at these prices, that cou ld be a while. · 'Your valentine is' so unique . In fact, Aunt Maud'e I' don't believe I ' ve ever seen a valentine with gre~n hearts before .•The hugging stick pea,ple o n the front are r~ally cute and who 'else but you would think of using lines from "To A Waterfowl" as a valentine verse? . Isn't it amazing what you can do with a little construction paper? , . . , And I have an idea for you . With Saint Patrick's Day coming up next month you just might want to make the . shamrocks on your greeting cards . red. That, again, would be a different approach and will certainly get the ,atten.t ion of the recipients . • , I'H tell you, Aunt Maude, I truly belie ve that good tasle and creativity run in our family: Who needs Hallm'ark when they can have a Maude-made original? I really got a windfall from Aunt Rhodie for Valentine's Day . UPS del'ivered a box froin her and when 1 opened it, here was all of this piano sheet mu si~ . She says she isn't going to play anymore-! ass ume she means on the piano-and she wanted me to have . . · the music . · It's a terrific seh:ction. All of the songs are at least 50 years old and as you know, are just my kind of sound . T~ey just don't write songs like these anymore. The mustc way back then was so melodious and the song lyrics-we coulc:l even understand every wordwere really g,e nius in action. . · I'm going to make some tapes of the songs and send them to you . Don't hold your breath, but I will try to do it soon. My favorite pianist, Jennifer Sheets, will do the playing of the songs so that I can record them. She's · kind of busy what with her law practfce, the state school board and then her husband , Jim , and their son, Adam, have opened a restaurant in Athens so I just have to wait until she can work me into her schedule. . I am .aware you don't have an electric tape player but wtth thts advance nottce that, mdeed, the tapes will be com1ng, you can arrange to get.a new set of batteries for the player you do have. No doubt , the neighbors will .all come in for a sing-a-long when you get it all together . . With refreshments from the still, I'H bet they can r.e ally sing up a storm. I will be sending you copies of all ' the lyrics along with the tapes. · · Right now, however , since it 's Valentine 's Day and all, it seems appropriate for me to refresh your memory of the Iy'rics to one of the most romantic songs from yesteryear. They go like this : "How much do I love you? "I'll tell you no lie, , "How deep is the ocean? How high is the sky? .:'How many timps a day , do I think of you? "How many roses are sprinkled with dew? " How far would I travel to be where you are? "How far is a journey from here lo a star? "And if I ever lost you, !Jow muc·h wo uld I cry? "How deep 'is ' the ocean, how high is the sky?". At any rate I'm really pleased to get Aunt Rhodie's music. It beat s chocolates al l to pieces. It .includes all of our old favoriies along with one song I'd just as soon not menti o n. It's called "Flat Foot Floogie, With a Floy Floy". We don't have to wo rry about that one ever be co ming a classic . I kn o ~ you .remember at least parts . ol 11 so th1nk about 1t a btl.

' Health professionals agree that early identification and treatment of speech and language disorders is the key to improving com·munication skills. If concerns about a preschooler's speech and language development are raised by parents, caretakers or teachers, a screening evalua~ lion should be sclfiduled. Children who are identified as high-risk need to be tested early and at regul~r intervals. Risk factors include med ical problems such as chronic ear infections, genetic defects such as Down's syndrome, neurological dis orders such as cerebral palsy and developmental disorders such as autism. The evaluation generally includes a review of the child's medical history, a physical examination to rule out problems with the ears, mouth or larynx. and a hearing evaluation . A. speech-language pathologist usually evaluates speech and language development. Sometimes a · neurologist is consulted, especially if the problems seem related to a developmental disorder. A dinner honoring the couple on their anniversary was held. in Lancaster and· hosted by their two sons, Dr. Joseph Freeman and his wife, Melinda, of Logan, and and Jo~ Freeman of Shade and his friend, Shirley Buckner. · Short-order soup for a snowy night Your Child's Health: Recognizing ·speech disorders in children By Dr. JOSEPH M.

' ERNIE SHULER Owner ' ' �Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis, OH • Point Pleasant, WV S"nday, .February 14, 1999 Edward Bouchet earned respect. for mark on scientific community . . By: James Sands Edward Bouche!, principal at Lincoln School in Gallipolis from 1908 to 1.913 was the first African American to graduate from Ya le College, the second African Ameri can in the nation to be nominated to Phi Beta Kappa, the first black to earn a Ph.D. deg ree and the sixth -tJ!'rson of any race in the Western Hemisphere to earn a doctorate in :Physic s. • 1 l I ~ .. Numerous programs .in science • 'at man y universities have been name d after him . Yet until October 17, 1998, Bouche! never had a : .1\)mbstone to mark his burial in New ;Haven, Conn . It was on that date thi s past fall that persons from Yale University, Hopki ns School, New Haven Public schools and several fraternities and business groups dedicated a stone for Dr. Bouche in the New Haven Cemetery. Bouchet's father, William Francis Bouchet. was born into slavery in 1817. He came to New Haven in the I 840's as the personal servant of John B. Robertson, a Yale stude nt fro m Charleston, South Carolina. After Robertson. graduated, William worked as a porter and later as a janitor at the college. William married Susan who worked as a washwoman . She washed the clothes of the Yale students. Edward was the youngest of four children born to William and Susan. He was the only boy. As a l'ad he attended Sa ll y Wilson's Artisan Street Colored School and later Hopkins Grammar School. . Edward graduated from Hopkins in 1870. He was the valedictorian of his class. ln 1874 Edward earned his bachelor's degree with highest honors. He finished sixth in his class. In 1876 Bouchet received the Ph.D. degree in Physics. His dissertation was titled, "Measuring Refractive Indices." Bouchet studied at Yale with two of the most prominent physicists of the 19th century, Josiah Willard Gibbs and Arthur Wright. . Even with a background matched by few others in the entire nation, no university would hire him ·as a professor nor could he find work in research. He acc~pted an offer 'to. teach at the School for Colored Youth in Philadelphia. He had no library, no laboratory, no graduate assistants and no colleagues in his field . He remained at thi s school (it later becall)_e known as Cheyney State University) for 26 years. Bmichet once confided to a · friend: :·1 guess it will be my life's work to teach, and that's what doctor means ." It was estimated that in his 26 years in Philadelphia Bouche! devel oped a cadre of black scientists whose minds were . expanded in ways not,otherwise possible. He then went to Summer High School in St. Louis, Missouri . For a time he was a business manager for a hospital in St. Louis. Then he went to Virginia to be the director of academics at St. Paul Nonnal and · Industrial School. He came to Gallipolis in 1908 to serve both as pri ncipill o( the high school and teacher of science and mathematics. In 1913 Bouche!, suffering from a severe case of arter.i osclerosis, left Gallipolis and returned to New Haven. He died there in 19!8. Aboul ·a decade ago a portrait of Bouche! was commissioned by Yale University. It was done by Rudolph F. Zallinger. The latter had won the 1949 Pulitzer Prize in painting for his·massive mural , "The Age ofRepJi1es.'' The Bouche! portrait hangs in the Sterling Memorial Library on the Yale campus. The inspiration for the painting of Bouchet as a college student was the [ 874 photo of Bouchet's graduation class at Yale. A Pllrl .of the Lifestyle Furniture Store wee the Lincoln SChool form 1908 to 1913 when Edward Bouchet ~.the principal. . In the class picture Bou'c het is seated in the center. While his clasS" mates are all looking into the camera, Bouchet's face was turned to the side. His eyes are gazing into the distance. The class program for graduation in 1874 included a poem that referred to blacks as "darkies who fit and fought on the bowling green ." · In his. later years Bouchet embraced the. principles of W.ll.B. Dubois and became an enthusiastic member of the NAACP. Today such colleges as the Univer~ity of Ill inois, Pklahoma State, Yale , Howard, Louisiana State and Clark University either have scholarship awards or chairs ill science nam~d after Edward Bouche!.

Secondly. last year's quota cut was only about half of what it should have a 4-Star Tobacco Harvester, or a blue mold control "kit." For each qualifying producer, the program will pay $7,500 towards the • been. In 1998, the USDA anticipated that the pool would take in 50 million purchase of Powell Tobacco Harvester, or $1,500 towards the purchase of a pounds of the 1997 crop. when in fact it took in an uneKpected total of 125 ' million pound s late in the markeiing season. According to Will Snell of the University of Kentucky, if the ac!Ual pool stock had been accounted for in the 1998 basic quota cut , then the decrease would have been around 18.5 percent instead of the actual 9.5 percent. The good news for this year is an abundance of carryover pounds will soften the cut in basic quota for many producers. Nationwide, the carryover tobacco has created an effccti ve quota that is in excess of 700 million pounds. However, with coinpany purchase intentions of less than 300 million pounds and exports rema.ining steady, it would appear that we are pulling off the inevitable. Fo~ many growers. it is likely that the 1999 quota cut will be .casier to manage thi s year, than in the year 2000.

By POPULAR MECHANICS For AP Special Features Q: There are dark lines on the drywall ceiling below the- attic in my house. The lines coincide with the ceiling joists. Someone suggested it is due to the lack of insulation. However, we have 6-inch balls in the attic. Do you have a cure for this problem? A: Although you have insulation between the joists in the attic floor, the top of the joists are exposed to the cold winter temperature in the .attic. Since the wood joists are not effective insulat0 rs, they act as thermal bridges. Consequently, the temperature al the underside of the joists (at the drywall ceiling) is.cooler than the adjacent sections of the ceiling which are covered with the insulation bans. Because of the lower temperature below the joists, condensation (however sli ght) tends to form along those areas. Over time , the moisture traps dust and also res ults in mildew growth which shows up as shadow lines. To prevent this from reoccurring, first paint the ceiling. Use a paint containing m"ildewcide. Next, install insulation bans over the exposed ceilin g joists. Ideally, the insulation should fill the spaces between the joists and cover the.top of the joists as well. Thi s last layer of balls .is often installed perpendicular to the noor joists. However you install the .insulation , make sure to use a type that does not have a foil or kraft-paper vapor barrier.

The shingles are in good condition, but we are concerned that they would be' a factor in selling our home. If the ' shingles are removed, will their disposal be difficult? · A: Although the shingles are referred to as asbestos, they are really asbestos cement shingles. That is, the asbestos fiberS are encapsulated in cement. As tong as the shingles are in good condition there is no problem. However, if they are abraded or sawn, asbestos fibers can be released, If these shingles are in good condition, they are generally not a factor when the home is sold.

If you're in the market for new windows, you ' ve probably noticed . that the subject isn't as simple a,o; a wood frame and a few panes of glass --and it hasn't been for some time. Over the last few years, however, advances in technology have shown that windows can play an even more ,important role in conserving energy than thought before, As recently as 1980, people who replaced ' their old windows with double-glazed units were at the forefront in the light to save energy. Those who opted for triple-glazed windows, the limit of technology at the time, were considered energy fanatics. But even those fanatics were forging a weak link in the energy chain of their homes because those triple-glazed units had insulation values of about R-3 (low), while the walls that held them had R yalues th ranged from II to 19. The· higher the R number, the greater the insulation factor is. In many well-insulated houses, · therefore, the windows were simply holes in the wall where vast amounts of energy escaped. In fact~. the average home loses about 25 percent of the energy it consumes through heat loss at windows. . Today, things are different. Most windows are still energy drains, but there are units available that are much more energy efficient then the jlaz. ing systems of the -past. Some ~in· dbws boast insulation values as high as R-8 . But these currently account for a very small part of the win'dow market. · · GI-1\AGE 33"3 X25'6 .

' ' I By JEFF BARNARD Alloclated Press WrHer COOS BAY, Ore. -- With the . bulk of its fuel burned in a boldly conceived fire, the grounded tanker . New Carissa lies broken in half and smoking in the surf as cleanup crews labor to shovel up what oil washed onto the beach. . By late Friclay, only three patches of beach within a three-mile stretch were reponed heavily oiled, and the sandy strand closest to the ship had only light streaks of black left behind by the receding tide . . "We did the right thing," said Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Gene Maestas. "By burning · the oil . we prevented it from spilling into the ocean.h . Co!'St Guard Capt. Mike l:lall adt:led, "Every gallon that is burned means one less gallon in the environment and the coastal habitat." The 639-foot ship, a Japaneseowned freighter, ran aground in the surf Feb. 4 a mile north of the · entrance to Coos Bay with nearly 400,000 gallons ·of diese l and tarlike bunker oil on board. It began leaking Monday as the pounding waves widened cracks in its hull, sending streaks of goo over six . miles of beach. . E•perts made the daring decision to bum the fuel before the ship broke up and fouled Oregon's scenic coastline. A Navy demolition team used 400 pounds of explosives to crack . open the fuel tanks and set the heavy bunker fuel ablaze within the hull of the crippled ship. . Hours atier the fuel erupted in a tremendous fireball, the ship broke into two huge pieces, whJch e•per!s said was completely e•pected and no reason for alann.

With winds blowing the smoke up the coastline and away from toivn, Oregon environmental officials said that even the air pollution from the burning wreckage was .minimal. Mike Szcrlog of the Department of Environmental Quality said the pollution levels in Coos Bay were "less than a good day in L.A." Authorities estimated that by Friday night, nearly 90 percent of the fuel would have burned and much of the rest would have been reduced t.o a waxy residue. After the fire, the rest of the oil will be removed, and the wreckage cut up and hauled away. Burning of a ship' s oil· to save beaches had never before been tried in .the Lower 48 states, and officials said that the success of the New Ciuissa could make it a more common option.

School District Call Cloudiness in eggs has harmless source By REBECCA COLLINS GALLIPOLIS - Have you ever cracked open an egg and found the white part surrounding the yolk looking cloudy? All of the discussion about foodrelated safety, particularly co ncerning eggs, can make even the tough-minded cook weary, Are th~se cloudy eggs un safe , old or just plain weird? Actually, a cloudy-looki ng egg white doesn't have any thing to do with food safety. The bacteria most often associated with whole eggs, Salmonella enteritidis, isn't something you can see or smell, so you can't use cues like that to detennine ah egg's safety. The cloudiness in that egg most .likely comes from harmless carbon dioxide that hasn't yet escaped through the egg shell. 11iat can happen when eggs are refrigerated at low temperatures ,..,- between 32 degrees and 39 degrees· Fahrenheit - immediately after t.hey're laid, rather than the 40 degrees to 45 degrees that 's standard. It can also happen if the egg is oi led within an hour after it's laid. Oiling helps maintain quality by sealing the egg shell 's pores. Sealing the pores also seals in the carbon dioxide. In either case, the carbon dioxide will slowly seep out. Because of that, you can just about bet that ah egg with cloudy white is probably fresher than normal. You can tell if an egg is old er if the white spreads out thinly in the pan when you crack the egg or if its yolk breaks easily. A fresh egg when broken has a tall, finn yolk and a thi.:k white that does not spread easily. If your egg white runs and the yolk breaks, it doesn't necessaril y mean the egg is' unsafe. It JUSt mean s it's old, anif its -quality isn't the highest. Expiration dates on egg cartons aren' t very good indicators of safety, ~ ither. They just indicate when the eggs were packed. The U.S. Depanmcnt of Agri· culture says as long as you purchase a carton of eggs before the date expires, you should be able to usc all the eggs safel y for three to fi ve week s after you purchase them, . Some egg carton s arc stamped with packing dates , indicated with a three ./ American canceled I, I02 nights digit code, instead of e• piration dates. Packing dates are numbered 001 to 365, wilh Jan.

About one in four American pilots called in sick Friday at the nation's second-largest airline, which in turn canceled several hundred more flights planned for the long Presidents Day weekend. "A federal judge ordered them back to work," said Edwin Amaya after learning his fli ght from Boston to Miami had been canceled. "Why aren'tthey here?" U.S. District Judge Joe Kendall the author of thal order- asked the same question of th~ Allied Pilots Association during a contempt hearing in Dallas on Friday. .

"The airline has su ffered enough and 11 is time that the pilots suffer along with us." Kendall adjo urned the hearing late in the afternoon and suggested union officials spend " a productive evening" on the telephone telling pilots to get back to work.

But small companies pay dividends too. If you didn 't know that of the more than 8,200 public companies with market caps below ~I bi-llion, almost 20 percent have dividend yields of 1.5 percent or more, you 're not alone. This sector of small-oap companies is ·Often ignored. And what gets overlooked just might be worth investigating. "Mostpeoplethinkofsmallcompanics as growth companies only," says Chuck Royce, portfolio manager of the Royce Total Return Fund and manager of The Royce Funds. "But there is a whole other sector that by and large gets ignored because there IS no value attributed to the dividend on small caps in the marketplace. Therefore, whatever y1eld you get from ~portfolio made up of div1dend-paymg small caps 1s sort of thrown in for nothmg." Small companies pay dividends for any number of reasons~ Some might have run out of steam from a popularity standpoint and decide to pay a d1v1dend to gather appeal. Othcrs have matured and their founders decide to pay them; still others might have a substantial cash position, and instead of plowing the money bac~ tnto the company, use It to reward their shareholders.

That's why he prefers d1vidend-paying companies and those that are debt-free and have high returns on capital. "We want to double our money in three or four years, and we would just as soon not lose very much in the short tenn," he says ,, . While small-company stocks were kic~in the face earlier this year, they c recovered handsomely...From P.t-pril rough the first week of October, the Russell2000 (an index measuring small-cap companies) fell 38 percent, And from Oct. 8 through Nov. 1'7, it gained 2.5 percent RoY,ce figuret;,lhat we are in a new lijl-cytle for small-cap companies which could last two to three years. "Anytime that you've had a 20 pe~ntdecline or more in small-cap stocks ~ver the past 25 years, without exception, there has been at least a 70 pt!rcent rebound in the following one to two years," he says. .

COLUMBUS (AP)- A minister who has been meet· ing with Wilford Berry for several months says Berry, who is scheduled to be executed Friday, has no fear of dying. . Berry "has always given me the impression of being in his right mind. I believe he is," said the Rev. David Otase of the Columbus Christian Center, who has seen Berry each month since September. . He said Berry has indicated he wants to die because "there is no life in the cell." Gov. Bob Taft's office has received nearly 3,000 letters and more than 700 phone calls requesting clemency for Berry, 36, who was convicted of killing baker Charles Mitroff during a 1989 robbery.

Associates say Clinton confidante Bruce Lindsey probably wins top prize in legal bills, perhap5 as much as $1 million. Former deputy chief of staff Evelyn Lieberman, who was suspicious about Lewinsky's interest in Clinton and forced her to leave the White House, also has huge legal expenses. Lind5ey said he hopes to get his bills paid by the government, since he was a target in Starr's ·invesligation but was not indicted. "It is a dubious honor to have been an actual targei of Ken Starr, but having been a target and not indicted, the only advantage is the possibility of having to apply to the government to have them reimburse my legal fees," Lindsey said, He said White House officials were able to negotiate cheaper attorney rates for !!Orne staff who needed legal help. Associates marvel at the extraordinary loyalty of Harold Ickes. He was unceremoniously dropped from his job as deputy chief of staff after the 1996 election. But he was summoned back to help Clinton in the Lewinsky mess. He returned even though he had his own legal problems with Starr and Congress over cliO· paign finances.
