Strickland to keynote
local Democrat dinner
U.S. Rep. Ted Strickland, DLucasville, will be the keynote speaker at Saturday's Kennedy Day Dinner,
hosted by the Meigs County Democratic Party.
The dinner will be held at !he
Meigs County Multipurpose Senior
Center in Pomeroy. A social hour will
begin at 5 p.m., with dinner to follow
at 6, according to Party Chairman
Sue Maison.
"We're always pleased 10 have
Congressman Strickland at our
events. and to have him as our
keynote speaker is especially exciting," Maison said.
"Ted has a way of relating important issues to how they affect the
average citizen. He really cares about
Meigs County, and I know that he
will really energize our party. Next
year is an importan1 year for the
Democrats, and for the county and.
country in general, and having Ted on
our ticket is always an honor."
Strickland, a psychologist and
former minister with the United
Methodi st Church; was first elected

narrowly defeated by GallipoliS'til!'sinessman Frank Cremeans, and in

During the I03rd Congress, he

Merger of OBES, Human Services
goes to Taft's desk for signature
By JOHN McCARTHY
Associated Press WrHer
COLUMBUS - A Democrat
who opposes the merger of the Ohio
Department of Human Services and
the Ohio Bureau of Employment Services &lt;;nvisions a state agency where
the emphasis is on training the hardto-employ for the workplace.
The merger,4pproved Wednesday
by the Senate and sent to Gov. Bob
Taft, will end up focusing on the
200,000people· expected to remain
on welfare next July, when .the merg. er goes into effect, and not do enough
for employed Ohioans who want better skills, said Sen. Linda Furney of
Toledo.
"We are creating a social service
system. We are not creating a workforce development system," Furney
said before the 23-10 vote that creates
the '()hio Depa(lment of Job and
Family Services.
The Senate vote followed two
hours of debate in which minority

Democrats complained about both
the merger and the process that created it.
Furney said the special HouseSenate committee thai oversaw hearings on the bill did not have enough
time to give it a thorough review. The
committee .received the bills and
sent them to the House floor within
two weeks.
" I hope this is not a process of the
future. It may be innovative, but if we
think !his serves democracy we are
mistaken," Furney said.
Sponsoring Sen. Robert Gardner
responded that the idea had been
studied for at least a decade, and
although i! may take time, the merger will save the state money. He
added that a streamlined agency will
help job seekers and welfare recipients when the st~te needs it most. .
"Clarifying roles and responsibilities makes sense now, but it will
becotne vital when the economy
slips," said Gardner, a Madison ·
Republican.
'
The merger, which will be completed by July, also was created to
respond to new federal welfare rules
that take effect at .the same time to
better deal with new limits on welfare
recipients.
In 9hio, most recipients are limited to three years of benefits in a
five-year period and must work at
least 20 hours a week to qualify.
Taft said the agency's creation is
just the beginning.

"It will take awhile to integrate
!he two departments, but long-term
there will be very significant savings," Taft said.
The Senate also agreed !o House
changes in a bill that adjusts dozens
of sections of Ohio law dealing with
sentences for criminals. The changes,
which now go to Taft, were recommended by the Ohio Criminal Sentencing Commission, a panel of
judges and law enforcement officials.
The Senate passed bills that would
transfer the duties under the Crime
Victims Reparations Law from the
Ohio Court of Claims to the attorney
general and allow parents to invest in
a college tuition savings account
that pays a higher yield than !he current fund, but at a greater risk.
Meanwhile, the House on
Wednesday approved legislation that
would include natural gas companies
among businesses subject to regulatory review when involved in a hos tile takeover bid for a competitor.
The House also passed bills:
• Requiring a mandatory prison
term of at least one year for assault
if the victim is a law enforcement
officer and is seriously injured.
• Creating new penalties for natural gas or public telecommunications ·companies that participate in
"slamming," or switching consumer.;
from one .company to another without theit permission .
• Permitting certified acupuncturists to practice acupunc!Ure in Ohio

By MORTON KONDRACKE
The medical research cause IS losmg two of Its greatest congressiOnal
champtons next ~ear wnh the retirements of Rep John Porter R-Ill, and
Sen Conme Mack, R-Fia - wh1ch
makes It VItal to pass stgn•ficant fundmg mcreases before they leave
Porter 's announcement last week
that he s leavmg Congress after II
terms caused shock and dtsmay
among research advocates even
though they knew GOP term limits
requned htm to step down as chairman of the subcommittee that funds
health programs
· He's a total hero on medtcal
research
said
Marguente
Donoghue a lobby1st represcntmg
cancer and other d1sease groups
H1s departure creates a btg votd "
Medical research advocates had
anticipated that Porter would remam
on the House Appropnattons Com
mlltee and use h1s mtluence to con
tmue workmg toward doubhng the
budget of the NatiOnal Institutes of
Health over a five year penod
He apparently decided to qu1t
because he was likely to become
cha1nnan of the committee's foretgn
operations subcommittee overseemg
foretgn md- wh1ch he supports but
wh1ch House Republicans constant
ly want to slash
Rumors that GOP leaders planned
to depnve h1m any subcommittee
cha1nnansh1p because of h1s moder
auon and mdependence are false
leadership a1des say He IS a mod
erate and he has cntlciZed us a lot, '
sa1d one top aide "but he's been solId lately Other people mtght not get
a subcommittee or a full committee
they re m Ime for but not Porter'
In fact Porter IS heavtl) responSI
ble for savmg the GOP from a maJor
embarrassment - deep cuts m med
1cal research - and convertmg It mto
a substantive and pohucal achievement
In early 1995, the new House
Republican maJonty passed a budget
resolution calling for a 5-percent cut
m fundmg for the Natwnallnstltutes
of Health and no mcrease for the next
four years- a net cut, after mtlation
of 25 percent The Senate passed a
10 percent first-year cut
Porter, newly mstalled as chair·
man of the Appropnat1ons subcom·
m1ttee on Labor, Health and Human

Services and Education, arranged
for a half-dozen top U S scientists
and CEOs of biOmedical companies
to meet wnh then -House Speaker
Newt Gmgnch, R-Ga Gmgnch
accordmg to one scientist declared,
'There tsn "t a program tn the U S
government that can 't be cut by 5
percent "
The CEOs and sctenusts
explamed, however, that federally
funded baste research was VItal to the
growth of the economy mcludmg the
phannaceut1cal mdustry
By the end of the meetmg, Gm
gnch promiSed to reconSider the cuts
and even showed around a book
chapter he had wntten on the key role
technology would play m Amenca's
future
Later, Porter lobb1cd Gmgnch
and then-Senate MaJonty Leader
Bob Dole, R Kan and got NIH and
the Centers lor D1sease Control
mcluded m a b1ll contammg llems to
be protected from planned budget
cuts In fact, NIH got a 57 percent
mcrease

Thanks to Porter and hiS opposite
number m the Senate, Appropnatmns
subcommlltee on Labor HHS, Education and related agencies Cha1nnan

Arlen Specter, R-Pa , NIH budgets
have been nsmg ever smce - by an
astoundmg 14 6 percent last year
In the Senate GOP leadership,
Mack has been a maJor advocate for
doubling NIH over five years H~
announced earlier thts year that he
will retire after 12 years m the Senate and s1x m the House
Mack became a medical research
advocate m the most pamful way possible- h1s brother and father dted of
cancer and he, h1s w1fe and daughter
are all cancer survivors Mack often
tells audtences how NIH-funded
research has developed treatments
that completely ehmmate melanomas
of the type that killed h•s brother
Porter, outwardly formal and
unemotiOnal, became a research
advocate after hstenmg to movmg
testimony m public hearmgs before
h1s subcommittee He remembers
especially one woman m her 50s who
appeared wnh her husband, a fonner
Navy test p1lot The woman testified
that a few years before. her husband
had been afflicted wllh Alzheimer's
disease
' Now the love ot my hie does not
even recogmze me,' Porter quoted
her as saymg "H1s life expectancy Is

35 years I will care for htm for the
next 35 years but he won't know who
lam
In an mterv1ew thiS summer,
Porter also recalled a set of twm chi I
dren affltcted w1th rare Huntmgton s
dtsease ·we saw them and heard
from the11 parents for a few years,"
Porter sa1d "The condlllon IS mvanably fatal and, beforehand, they lose
any control of the11 bod1es or bodily
functmns
' When you see people like these
and you go out and see what the setenliSts at NIH are domg, you can't
help but thmk that med1cal research
IS the best money that the federal
government spends on anythmg "

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Calvin
Griffith, who brought major league
baseball to Minnesota and was one
of the game's most frugal owners,
died today in Melbourne, Fla. He
was 87.
Griffith developed pneumonia, a
kidney infection and a high fever two
days ago, said Sima Griffith, his
daughter-in-law. She said he had a
pacemaker put in three to four weeks

ago and had been in a rehabilitation
center in Florida.
Griffith moved the Washington
Senators after the 1960 season and
the team became the Minnesota
Twins. He sold · the club to
Minneapolis banker Carl Pohlad in
1984, ending 65 years of franchise
ownership by the Griffith family.
Griffith was intent on holding the
line on escalating salaries. But for all
the acrimony that stance created, his

lowest moment came during a Griffiih to seil the team . Griffith said
speech to a local Rotary club tn his words were taken out of conte·xt,
1978.
" Black people don 't go to ball
games, but they'll fill up a rassling
ring and put up such a chant they'll
scare you to death," he said. "We
came (to Minnesota) because you've
got good, hard-working white people
here."

9JY JOHN MOSSMAN
· DENVER (AP) - Despite a
tareer winning percentage of .399 as
a manager, Buddy Bell was the No. I
choice of Colorado Rockies general
manager Dan O'Dowd from Day
One.
On Wednesday, the Rockies made
it official, introducing Bell as the
lhird manager in the team's sevenear history. succeeding Jim
eyland, who retired after the regular
season.
Under orders from the commissioner's office to consider mmority
candidates, the Rockies had discuslions with four mmoritoes ~ An zona

eoach Ken Gnffcy, Aorida minor
league manager Lynn Jones and New
York Yankees coach Willoe
Randolph . Colorado had a black
manager, Don Baylor. the forst six
)'ears of the franchise's existence.
" I intervoewed four mmorities
who were very ompressive."
O'Dowd saod. "but n6ne of them
impressed me as much as Buddy
Bell . He os the perfect fit for this balldub."
Bell , 48 , who managed the Detroit
Tigers from 1996-98, descnbed homself as a player's manager who will
emphasoze detense and team chemIstry.
Bell ~ who has worked for the
~incinnati Reds the past year, most
recently as director of player develbpment ~ signed a three-year con!ract believed to be worth about
52.25 moll ion.
O'Dowd. named the Rockoes general manager a month ago. said Bell
"knows the game. He knows how it
~hould be played, and he will
demand that from every one of our
players. He understands the importance of creating an atmosphere
:,.Vhere every player has the potential

r

to play to the best of his ability."
O'Dowd also promised to acquire
talent "to gove Buddy the chance to
put the kind of product on the field to
realize our mossion: having a cham·
pionshop-contendong ballclub each
and every year. "
Denied those assurances in
Detroit, Bell guided the Tigers back
to respectabolity but was fired late in
his third season.
He finished runncrup in the 1997
AL Manager of the Year l,lallotong
after leading the Tigers to a 79-83
record, a 26-game improvement over
the prevoous year. But the Tigers cut
their payroll for 1998, and Bell was
fired on Sept. I. 1998, after a 52-85
mark.

" My run in Detroit was great as

could manage. It also taught me
about getting along with people in

of-21 passes for 78 yards and no
touchdowns with one interception in
last week 's 23-10 loss at Penn State.
Starting the last five games for the
Buckeyes (4-3), he has shown
moments of brilliance ~ and
moments where he looked clueless.
"You're goong to have some of
those problems with a first-year
starter," offensive coordinator Mike
Jacobs said.
In spite of his inconsistency and Salem's words ~ Bellisari
remains a solid choice as starter.
Backup Austin Moherman played
more minutes in the opening-game
loss to Moami (21) than he 's played
in the six games since (19). With the
Buckeyes' offense foundering the
last three weeks, Moherman has only
played one minute.
Over the last three games,
Bellisari has completed just 38 percent of his passes (27 of71) with four
interceptions and no touchdown
passes.
Ohio State has lost two of those
games and barely escaped woth a 2522 victory over Purdue in the other.
"There was a point in tome in the
Purdue game where Steve was mak-

ing some horrendous mistakes."
Salem said. " It was to the quarterback mentality of it, not great physical mistakes but things he needed to
do to operate our offense."
Salem said he consulted with
Jacobs and ·with head coach John
Cooper about brongmg on Moherman.
"There was a situation roght there
that was talked about: 'We' ve got to
get the other guy in, just to let Steve
get to the sodeline and catch his
breath and have an opportunoty to
look and watch and feel while the
other guy gets something done."'
Salem said.
But Belhsaro, who completed 10of-26 passes with two interceptions,
never got that opportunoty. And nei ther did Moherman, who is also a
sophomore.
The most ditlicult aspect for a
young quarterback is making
"reads," or reading the defense and
reacting with an aud1blc play change
or a swotch on ahgnments.
"Sometimes the reads aren't
there," fullback Matt Keller said of
Bellisari's struggles. But he quickly
defended his quarterback, say ing,
"It's only go ing to get better woth

Stevie."
Jacobs said Moherman started the
Buckeyes' opener because he was
better than Bellisari at reads.
Moherman has not lost ground in that
area, Jacobs said.
Cooper has said Bellisari is
"exactly what we need." He said
Bellisari's problems have primjll'ily
been po9r protection.
"There are times when if we don't
block the right guy, obviously he's
running for his life," Cooper said.
Cooper and Salem say Moherman
is handling his lack of playing time
with a good attitude. Neither he nor
Bellisan were ·made available for
interviews this week.
They also say that Bellisari 's performances are the fits and starts of a
young quarterback, learning the
trade.
Salem said Moherman woll get in,
sometime. possibly even Saturday
against 24th-ranked Minnesota.
"So there 's a relief pitcher in
there ," Salem said. "That CO\IId happen this week, that could happen next
week . Within the next five weeks
that's going to have to get done."

;some of the bishop's observations:

"Wedding re hearsals arc a con,stant irritant l'or priests who have to

liturgies become panics rather than
prayer. making it impossible to
maintain any sense of decorum .

"Guests arrive late, the bride·
goes into hiding. the groomsmen sit
in the church parking lot drinking.
flower girls and ring bearers are too
young to foll ow directions and photographers scramble to direct the
ac 11on rather than record 11 .

The United Fund for Meigs County has set a $25,000 fundraismg goal
for its 2000 campaign year, and held
a breakfast on Thursday morning to
kick off its fund-raising campaign.
S~san Oliver, executive direc tor of
the Meigs County Council on Aging,
has been named chainnan of the 2000
campaign, and spoke to those attending yesterday's event. Oliver also
served as one of the founding members of the UFMC's board of trustees.
Also attending the breakfast were
members of the fund's board and representati ves of agencies who have
received funding through the agency.
The United Fund prov ides funding
for 12 agencies in Meigs County, all
of which have 501(c)(~) tax-exempt
status: the Meigs United Methodist
Cooperative Parish for the coordinati on of crises services: RiverbendArts
Council, for operational expenses; the
Meigs Cou nt y Historical Soc iety and
Meigs County Museum. for the purchase of additi onal resources for the
museum library: Boy Scout Troops

Hometown Newspaper

County Unit, for educational programs.
Agencies seeking funding through
the UFMC make p~esentalions to the
fu~d's board of trustees annually, and
appropriations are detenn ined by a
board committee.
Hilda Stotts, director of Serenity
House, a sheller in Gallipolis which
houses women and children who are
homeless and/or victim s of domestic
violence, including women and children from Meigs County, was one of
several agency representatives who
spoke to those attending the breakfast. ·
Stalls said that the agency uses
dollars from the United Fund to pay
for small , personal items needed by
the agency and its clients, as well as
for gasoline and other emergency
needs that the clients experience.
"[commend the United Fund for
its accomplishments. because this is
a poor county, " Stotts said. "All of
this is hard-earned money."
Stalls sa id that her age ncy operates on a shoestring. and also noted
that a new homeless shelter for men,
which Serenity Hou se recently
opened in Pomeroy, mi ght also seek
funding from the UFMC.
ln her remarks, Oliver reported
that the United Fund has raised over
$100,000 since it was founded in
1993. Oliver urged those attending to
"go back to work. or back home. and
talk to your friends and your coworkers, and urge them-to ptVticipate
- in this program." · · .

Tei!chers union claims illegal conv-ersion
CLEVELAND (AP) - The Ohio
Department of Education disputes a
claim by the Cleveland Teachers
Union that the state illegally let four
private school s convert into charter
schools.
Edu·cation Department spokeswoman Lee Ann Rogers said the conversion s were legal because the
schools gave up their old charters and
appointed new governing boards.
"The opinion that we received
from the Ohio Attorney General's
office was the perception that .this is
a new school because they had to go
through an extensive interviewing
process and had a new governing
board come forward," she said Thunday.
Ohio has 33 charter schools,

which are independent schools that
recei ve $5,000 per pupil in state and
federal money and are exempt from
curriculum and personnel standards.
Like traditional publicschools, they
must meet slate standards in testing
and attendance.
Richard DeColibus, president' of
the union that represents teachen in
Ohio's largest school district, said
state law prohibits a non -public
school that . existed before Jan . 1.
1997, from becoming a charter
school.
He said four private sc hools three in Cleveland and one in Cincinnati :_ existed before that date but
were still allowed to be convened
into charter schools this year.
DeColibus said the schools

appeared to be exactly the same.
"When you talk about new
schools vs. old schools, if the 'new'
school is in the same buildin g and has
the same faculty and it has the same
students, how can you claim it 's a
new school?-! think most reasonable
people would·conclude you can't, and
this is a sham," he said.
"I think the state of Ohio needs to
be held accountable for this."
DeColibus cri ticized the state for
giving taxpayer money to voucher
and charter schools instead of the
public schools. His union, along with
dozens of others statewide, will rally in support of public sc hool funding Saturday at the Statehouse in
Columbus .
