Building For Your Future!!

COLUMBUS (AP) -After seeing many of his cam·
· paign pledges fulfilled already, Gov. Bob Taft is ready
. for his next task: cracking down on juvenile crime.
.·
·Lawmakers, Taft and the Ohio Criminal Sentencing
Commission are expeeted to release their proposals in
the next few weeks. 1)te ideas are expected to include
making· parents responsible for their,children's actions
and allowing judges to sentence underage offenders past
the age.of 21. '

school violence ·,and concern over incr~asing problems
with ju~enile crime.
'
The overall crime rate in .Ohio is declining, but juve·
nile arrests have been on the rise. From .1981 to 1996,
juvenile arrests 'increased 20 percent, drug juvenile
arrests tripled, and cases of unruly and delinquent youths'
rose 20 percent.
·
· "We have to be able to take care of the most violent
kids while trying to sal.age some of the others," pavid .
Diroll, the commission's executive director, told The
Columbus Dispatch for a stor~unday.

School districts building one school for all grades
GHILLICOTHE (AP) - Call it the modem-day v~rsion of the oneroom schoolhouSe.
·
·
.
The Ohio · School Facilities CommiS.ion is recommending to many
· small sChool districts that they build one schoolhouse for all of their stu·
dents to cut costs and increase the effieieni:y of bus routes, maintenance,
utilities and staff. .
,
"When you have a total population of 1,500 or fewer students in !he dis- .
triot, it doesn't make sense to have inore th.an one building," conimisSion
spokesman Brenton Zuch told The Columbus Dispatch for a story Sunday. ·
The comm~on recently pledged $I c03 billion ·in construction grants to
47 school districtS that must match state funds. Nine are proposing to use
the m&lt;iney for new, all-grade buildings, .00 three')\fe renovating existing
building. that house all grades. ·· ·
That makes 22 school districts using, or planning to 'Usc:, state money to
renovate or construct building. for those in kindergarten through 12th.
grade.
• '
·
.
Some officials question the academic and social consequences of placing 6-year-olds in the same boilding with 18-year-oldS.
·
"It could be a problem, or it could be a benefit," said Rob Tierney,
" director of Ohio State University's School of Teaching and Learning.
"It would be difficult to make a sweeping generalization. It would
·depend on the community developed within the school. Some places there
would be ~good cOmmunity; some places there !"ay not be."
Zuch said parents unfamiliar with the· concept often have eoncems
about young chil~n being with teen-agers. But many an; ll&lt;li!&lt;ved when
they- design plans showing separation between grade'leveiS..
"We don't want kindergartners eating wilh seniors," he said. "Often,
the place where the students are dropped off is different. They have different parts of the library. It is not uncommon to have more !han one gym."
. At Zane Trace, about 45 miles soulh of Columbus in Ross County, class c
peri &lt;ills are st~ggered so younger children are riOt in the halls.with highschool students, but they do ride the same buses.
"Our main problems are with language," said history teacher Todd Hoi. dren, referri'ng to adult language used by older students, "and noise in the
llallways."

Some schools claim· one-buil~ng settings provide positive role models.

"We've tried to make it an advantage," said Paul &amp;sian, superintendent .
of Twin Valley Community Local School District west of Dayton in Prebl.e
County, which has bad all students.under one roof since 1995.
The consolidation has '!!lowed for structured tutoring of younger chi!·
dren by high-school students. "There have not been any 'signilicant prob·
lems since we moved,-· he said.

Animal testing saves .lives
By JoMph Perkin.

Skirtmg the legislative process and taking an Issue straight to the ballot
box i~ mcreasmgly on voters' mmds
But the emotiOns needed to push a high-profile Issue to a statewide vote
- whether to ban the hunting of mourmng doves, for example - aren't
always there for less flashy but no less important proposals
The League of Women Voters of Oh10 found that out th1s summer when
1t fell short of the 353,000 signatures 1t needed for a CJI!zens' 1mtiative on
redtawmg legislative d1stncts. The group says the Initiative would have
taken the politics out of tile way d1stncts are created.
"We had a more challengmg 1ssue to try to desCribe and that will contm·
ue to be a puzzle for us," sa1d league President JaniCe Patterson "If you
compare it to mourning doves, it's not as easily explained.
"Also, we beheve you face some considerable •pathy from people about
the1r government," she sa1d "You see many voters who say, 'If 11 Isn't broken, don't fix 1t ' "
•
Currently, a five-member State Apportionment Board draws the leg~sla­
tive lines The board- the governor, secretary of state, auditor and a lawmaker from each party - redraws the hnes after each census, w1th the next
red1slr!ctmg to be done before the 2002 elections
Republicans control the current board, havmg won the three statewide
offices in 1998. They likely will draw the hnes - as the Democrats have
done - m a way that favors \heir own party In as many dJstncts as P!JSS!ble
The idea of creatmg a neutral red1stnctmg process has been forwarded,
either by mitiat1ve or m the Legislature, 12 times and has yet to succeed
Patterson d1dn 't have exact numbers about how many signatures the
League gathered th1s year, but sa1d the number was "substantially" short of
what was needed.
•
Nallonally, there 1s a tnend toward mone CJI!zen-dnven ballot IDIIlatives,
sa1d Carlo LoParo, a spokesman for Secretary of State J Kenneth Blackwell.
But complicated issues don't always fare well, he said
"The mane complicated the ballot 1ssue, the more voters are mchned to
vote agamst tha~" he srud
The same emotions that bring citizens' imllatives or proposed am~nd,
ments to the ballot also contribute to resoundmg defeats or V!Ctones. Oose
votes are rare
The In Illative that would have banned the huntmg of mourmng doves last
fall, for example, fruled by more than 600,000 votes
A legislative proposal in May !998 for a I percent sales tax for school
fundmg failed by mane than 1.1 miihon votes An attempt to legahze nver
lJoat casmo gambling m November 1996 fa1led by more than I mllhon
votes
The November 1992 consmutional amendment on term limits for state
legislators passed by more than I 6 million votes.
"With mournmg doves, there's a lot of passion and generalmterest," said
Herb Asher, intenm dJrector of Oh10 State's John Glenn Institute for Pubhc
Service and Pubhc Pohcy With ned1strictmg, "you're talking about Issue
that's complicated, isn' t high on radar screens- and beyond that, the league
does not have the financial resources to pay signature collectors "
Patterson srud the League of Women Voters will tty again w1th redislr!cting It feels chances ane better thanks 10 part to some of the publicity from
the most recent attempt.
But a complicated issue takes a lot more work, she acknowledged Work
and money
"If thene 's enough money to be able to buy four-page ads, or enough to
buy pnme-ume advertismg,ll really makes a b1g difference, " Patterson sa1d.
"We haven't had that kmd of money, and at the momen~ it's kind of against
our nature to even try to get that money to do it "

The an1mal rights folks have
SICced a bunny rabbit on AI
Gore A seven-fool-tall critter
with floppy ears, fluffy tail and
all And he's lra1hng the v1ce
president all around the country, from New Hampshire to
Iowa to California.
The overgrown bunny and
Its sponsors, People for the Ethical T;;;;t;;;;;;;f
Animals, arc hoppmg mad at Gore because he
backs the Environmental Protection Agency's use
of animals m Its chemical testing program. PETA
asserts that the program "w1ll kill m1lbons of
b1rds, fish, rabbits and other an1mals m useless
and pam£ul cxpenments
"
'
And PETA's four-month attack on Gore is not
hm1ted to protests by its spokcsbunny It also 1s
amng teleVISIOn commercJals, featunng the
actress-cum-ammal 11ghts activisl Bea Arthur
("Maude," "Golden GJrls"), tn which the veep IS
basically accused of advocating animal
genocide
But Gone IS not callously sendmg ammals to the slaughter, as PETA suggests
He s1mply has endorsed an EPA program
m wh1ch h1gh production volume (HPV)
chemicals -- produced 10 quantities of
more than I m1lhon pounds a year -- are
subject to testing to ensure public safety.
Actually, the EPA program IS a
response to a 1997 report by the Env!lonmental Defense Fund, which asserted
that there was a lack of publicly available
test data for HPV chemicals (to ascertain
the relative risk to human health as well
as threat to the environment).
Gone took up the cause of the environ·
mental group, Jssumg a challenge to the
chemical mdustry to commit to steppedup tesung for the 2, 700 or so HPV chemIcals. And the chemical industry accepted
the challenge, much to Its cred1t, agreemg
to speed the pace of testing, at a cost to
the mdustry of more than $700 million
over six years.
The v1ce preSident was plc;J~Sed The
environmentaliSts were pleased But the
animal rights folks were decidedly displeased. Because they are absolutely
opposed to animal testing under any Cll·
cumstance whatsoever.
Indeed. one need only consider some of the
remarks of an1mal nghts leaders to see Just how
extreme they are
•
Like Ingrid Newkirk. PETA co-founder and
current president, who once declared "S1x milhan Jews died in concentration camps, but SIX b!lhon broiler chickens will die this year 10 slaugh-

terhouses " Or Alex Pacheco, PETA's other cofounder, who once commented· "We feel that ammals have the same nghts as retarded ch1ldnen."
It so happens that ammal testmg -- over which
PETA IS giving the v1ce president so much gnef •
- has been the key to virtually every medical
breakthrough of the past century
The poho vaccme was developed by use of
monkeys and, yes, rabbits in the laboratory.
Chemotherapy was refined w1th tests on mice and
rats Heart-bypass surgery was achieved through
expenmentation w1th dogs. The discovery of
insulin resulted from research on dogs, pigs 11nd

And the advocacy group, Amencans for MedIcal Progress, identifies an ancillary benefit to
animal research that the radicals at PETA conveniently Ignore

It went to three Amencan scientists, Drs
Robert Furchgott, Loms lgnarro and Ferid Murad,
for their research into the effects of nllric oxide m
the body. Their bas1c research , mvolvmg tests on
mice, rabbits and other animals, has enabled other
scientists to explore new treatments for heart discase, cancer, impotence and stroke.
Of course, this matters not to the animal nghts

Boggs' 3,000th hit caps. record-setting week

By FRED GOODALL
ST PETERSB URG , Fla (AP) ~
A crystal ball would have ruoned 1hc
moment for Wade Boggs
He didn't want to know what 11
would be hke to get hos 3,000th hll.
and wouldn ' t have behe\cd 11 1f anybody had told him he 'd reach ' the
mole&lt;tone w11h a home run
" I guess l JUSt have a tla1r for the
~ramalic," Boggs sa1d Sunday,
reOectin g on realizmg a hfelong
dream just 20 miles from where he
grew up and played Lillie League
ball.

'

Mark McGwore began a remarkilble 1hree days of baseball hi story
Th ursday ni ght m St Lou1s by
beco mmg only the 16th player to h11
500 ure~r home runs McGwire,
who set the smgle-season mark of 70
last year, added No 501 later m the
game
Fnday mght , Tony Gwynn , who
broke Into the major leagues three
months after Boggs. g91 h1s 3.000th
hit, lining a single m the first mning
m Montreal.
Then carne Saturday and Boggs, a '
classoc contact hitter who became the

first player to gel to 3,000 on a
homer
''Three mtlcstoncs m three n1ght s.
that' s pretty amazing." Gwy.nn saod.
Befbre McGwore. Gwynn and
Boggs. the closest two hillers have
(fached such mtlestoneS' was m 1970
when Erme Banks slugged hts 500th
' on May 12 and Hank
home run
Aaron got h1s 3.000th hn five days
later
In 1925. Edd1e Collins got h1s
3.000th hll 17 days after Tns Speaker
passed the molestone, unto! now the
closest two players had reached that

plateau
Cal R1pkcn could become the
third player to reach 3,000 this season. The Balumore star. currently on
the d1sabl ed list. needs 32 hits to
make ot.
A lot of people got caught up m
the moment as Boggs stood m for the
b1g at.ba,t. While the fans gave h1m a

authority and responsibility where it
belongs, at the local leveL '.'
Bush's appearance at the Urban
League's annual convention is part of
his drive to appeal ·to elhnic minority voters, who have historically suppaned Democratic candidates.
The appearance cametwo weeks
after Bush's absence from the annual ·convention of the National Coun~il of La .Raza. a Hispanic advocacy
group, d~ew sharp .criticism from his
opponents.
Last month, Bush turned down a
chance to speak a~ a meeting of
minority journalists in Seattle. thou~h
he was campaigning in that city at the
time. He eventually made a brief
appearance at that event.
The four-day Urban League co nference is drawing top candidates
from the 2000 presidential race. Bush
was the first of several contestants
slated to appear.

. Vice President AI Gore. the frontrunner for next year's Democracic
nomimitioo , is due to address the convention Monday. His closest Democratic rival, former New Jersey Sen.
Bill Bradley, is to speak Tuesday
afternoon.
Bush, ad~ocating what he called
"the hard work of compassion,'.' told
the group that .government money
should support groups with successful social-aid programs - such as
faith-based organiza1ions, churches ,
synagogues and charities.
" They 've had success because
they change lives by changing heans,
but they don't have the resources they
need to continue waging the war," he
said.

For me. Doro!hea had been a role model and onsporau on. and I often
draw on her background and knowledge of the coun!y's h1 story long after
she had lefl her home for long·term care Unul1he las1 monlhs. when she
was stead1ly fadmg, she followed the soc1ety's w.:t1v1t1es closely. \\.11~

· cheered on hearong aboul an old fnend from !he Humane Sovoety of the
Un1ted States, as well as from local advocates for ammals , and co.nt mued
to read av1dly some of her ammal pubhcatoons to wh1ch she had subscrobed
lla&gt;t saw her three weeks ago, and then 11 was clear !hal she was raptd·
ly fadmg We 1alked ot summer peaches, people we knew, .md she hs
tened mtently to news of the orgamzat1on she had founded

Wha!l most adnmed abou1 Dor01hca was her unconventional Side She
had a dry . almost sardomc w1t , and could cause mcmment with JUst the
ra1se of !he eyebrow and a wry obscrvauon A1nmes worn out by "hal
she saw as !he c()unty's (and the world s) slow p• ogress on am mal wei rare ISSUes she 'snll reJOICed at even the smalleSI \' ICIOry -·as long as I

ThiS ttny woman never 10h1rked unpleasant ta~k., She wa~ tor exampie, on the spotlo lake p1c!l!res ol the old" pound The color photographs
of disemboweled dogs, eaten by uther starvmg dog:-; , vic1c pamful enough
lor me to v1ew years later I can't 1magme what 11 cost her emotionally to
take them
Always nghltheie (whether a! the site of an an1mal d1sastcr or at a com·
mass10ners' meetmg)·Dorothea was never atrmd to get1nvolved. and she
1
took her board dutoes quole senously Early on. she helped organoze our
Spay/Neu1er Program, arrangmg herself, wrote lellers 10 the edna,. and
coordmated pubhc awarenes~ actiVItieS
A lover of mUSIC. lnerature and ammals, Dottle had mne cal&lt; when I
forsl mel her four years ago Allms1de cals, !hese well-loved and (us ually) well-behaved crea1Ures were her con Slant compamons. Each one had
a story and a personahly thai Dol toe could descnbe on de1aol Vos11mg her
was a treat, for cals twined around her stalue of S1 FranCIS, lounged on
tables or sofa, peered at V1s11ors from 1he staus. and were a ternfic source
of entertamment
Do111e was beautifully cared tor at the long-1erm care umt where she
spent her last year Many of the doc10rs, nurses. and mdes knew of her
from the commumly and seemed 10 take specoal care of her However, I
