The commissioners have also made tenlalive plans to join with Gallia, Jackson and Vinton Counties in an effort to plan WIA ser· vices, although those counties will likely serve individually as their own fiscal agenls, and will imple· ment their own counties' services. Davenporl said that Galli a, Jackson and Vinton Counties will make excellent partners in plan· ning services, because of the work· ing relalionship !hat the counlies enjoy in other areas. This joint planning and broker· . age of lfaining dollars could allow the four counties 1o obtain a betler uni1 rate for some services, and. although the four-counly group could administer the funds as a group, Davenport said that he and Commissioners Jeffrey Thornton and Janet floward favor a plan that preserves as much local control as possible. "We have an excellent opportu· nity to operate these programs locally," Davenport said, ~and while we haven't made a decision yet as to how we will administer the programs, we want to make !he right decision for Meigs Counly what will produce· the best system and keep the funds as llically-con· trolled as possible."

Co., in Poinl Ple&W!I, W.Va., visited Meigs High School in Pomeroy last Wednesday to show freshman science students how to put the earth's magnetic field to good use. Staff Sgt. Robert Freeman, Sgt First OISS Travis Gray, Spec. Joshua Searls and Pvt. Kima Durst, working in conjunction with sci~ teacher Janice Haynes, set up a simple corn· pass course ncar the high school. The studeniS used lensatic cornp&sses to dctennine the direction to several preestablished points and counted their pace to find the proper dislance. Haynes said her class has been studying magnets, electromagnets and magnetic fields, including the earth's magnetic field. She asked Staff Sgt Freeman, who lives in Pomeroy, if he would assist with the project Free· man's daughtct, Robin, is a student in Haynes' class. 1-fay!ICS"said the class has learned how animals, patticularly migratory birds, use the earth's magnetic field to •navigate over great dislancea. Most everyone has heard of people who have "a nalural sense of direction." These people, and some migratory animals, have a some magnetic male· rial in their brains, she explained. After a short class, the students were broken off into groups of four·or five, handed a compass and a list of directions and dislances, and sent off to find their points. "We were trying to give them a basic land navigation course," said Freeman. "We wanted to show them what we know about' a lensatic com· pass and how to shoot an azimuth (one of the 3«l degrees indicaled on the compass)." Wednesday's class was only a brief introduction to land navigation, gen· erally soldiers use a variety of aides to dctcnnine their location including the compass. a mililary·issue map and protractor and other means, lhe sol· .Meigs Band captures grand champion title at Trl ·• State Marching Band Festival ·.

Denial tells us much about state of mind of President Clinton W ' ''' •' By CHRIS MATTHEWS WASHINGTON- Bill Clinton must beheve that nme months ts the outer limtt of the Amencan memory. That or he remains in a deep state of denial about the humthatton he so recently caused himself and the country. "I think that history will view this much differently," he said in an interview with ABC 's Carole Stmpson. "They wtll say I made a bad personal mis· take, I prud a pnce for tt, but that I was nght to stand and fight for the country and my Constitution and its princi!lles, and that the American people were very good to stand with me." "I think that over the long run, the fact that we accomplished as much as we did in the face of the severe, bitter, partisan onslaught... will, in a way, make many of the things we achieve seem all the more impressive." These words tell more about die president's state of mmd today dian the true events of 1998 and 1999. He wants his contemporaries to accept and wants future generattons to be instructed that his impeachment and subsequent trial m the Senate resulted from behavior that was entirely "person· al ," charges that were enttrely political in nature. Fortunately, there ts a pnnted record that dtsplays both the public nature of Clinton's mtsconduct, the bipartisan nature of tts condemnation. Prior to the Senate vote on removal of the president from office, 29 mem· bers of the prestdent's own party sponsored a resoluuon of censure. The list of co-sponsors included liberals Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts, Paul Well· stone of Mtnnesota, Barbara Mikulski of Maryland, Charles Schumer of New York, Bob Torncelli of New Jersey, John Kerry of Massachusetts, as well as pnme sponsor Dtanne Feinstein of California. The resolutiOn, whtch was also backed by Senate Democratic leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota, declared Clinton guthy of the following: He "engaged man inappropriate relationship with a subordinate employee m the White House: which was shameful, reckless, and mdefensible"; He "deliberately mtsled and deceived the Amencan people, and people mall branches of the Untied States government"; He "gave false or misleading testimony and his actions have had the effect of impeding dtscovery of evidence in judicial proceedings"; His "conduct... demean(s) the office of the prestdent . and creates disrespect for the laws of the land" , He " has brought shame and dishonor to himself and the office of the presi(fency"; ~e "has violated the trust of the American people ... and that future gen· ' I. ' I• I erattons of Amencans must know that such behavior is not only unaccept· able but also bears grave consequences, includmg loss of integrity, trust and respect. " Thanks to Senator Femstem and her liberal Democratic colleajlues, the historic record will forever contain such hard documentation !hat die president's dealings with regard to this sordid matter did not make his solid achievements "all the more impressive" but ramer his arrogant and self· destructive behavior all the more tragic. · (Chris Matthews, chief of the S.n FranciiCo Examiner's Wuhlllll:' ton Bureau, Ia ho11t of "Hardball" on CNBC and MSNBC cable channels.

Whether or not that was part of Brent Saunders' pregame speech to h!s GalhaAcademy Blue Devil football squad Friday, the boys in blue and w'biie did just that. , · '. Gallia Academy (10.2) buried New Richmond in a 14-0 bole in the first quarter and kept the Lions bottled up all night on the road to ti 47-12 victory in ti)e OHSAA Division Ill, Region 12 semifinals at Spartan Municipal Stadium in Portsmouth. "I just can't say enough about our big play capability," Saun.ders said following his tOOth career coaching victory. "We really coach basic football, and if we see an area that's open in their defense, we're going to strike there." And strike they did. It took less than two minutes for the Big Blue to light the scoreboard at venerable old Spartan Stadium. Gallia Academy took the opening kickoff and in just four plays put the ball in the end zone. Jeremy Payton, who put together his best passing performance of the season against New Richmond, hit Heath Rothgeb in stride down the right sideline for a 40 yard touchdown, and the rout was on. Rothgeb electrifi~ the ocean of blue and white backers that filled the visitors' side of Spartan Stadium with another highlight reel play at the 6:20 mark of the first period Following a stalled New Richmond drive, Rothgeb fielded a punt at his own 31 yard line ~d rocketed through a wall of black and red tacklers for 69 yards and a score to put Gallia Academy ahead 14- Q. · Payton went to the air again for the Blue Devils' third score, which came late in the second quarter, He found Cody Lane from 33 yards out and GAHS boosted its lead to 21-0 with 3:32 to play before halftime. · New Richmond (9-3) came to life on offense with a solid drive that saw a mixture of run and pass. Halfback John McMonigle ripped off a 17-yard run around the left end, was hit at the one yard line, but spun back to lhe right and fell into the end zone for the touchdown. lfo\Yever, -~ ,Ljop_f joy "!II.~ short lifeil"u' lhe Blue 'bevll special teams had yet another surprise in store. On the ensuing kickoff, Lane fielded the ball at the GAHS 23 yard line, recei~ed some timely blocking, and turned on the jets to race 77 yards for a touchdown to put the Blue Devils ahead 27-6 heading to the halftime intermission. Lane's tally came with 60 seconds remaining on the first half game clock and was the Blue Devils' first kickoff return for a touchdown this season. "We've got that consistency of good offensive line blocking and just great defensive play thai's got us where we're at," Saunders said.. "If we can score on the first play of the game, we' ll score. If we have to drive the ball, we·can do that. "The special teams play, the big returns, those are things you like to have," he; added. '!bat's kind of like icing on the cake." · After having their cake in the first half, the Blue Devils went back to their staple meat and potatoes diet in the second half with Bobby Jones a,nd Ike Simmons each Scoring a rushing touchdown. Jol)es' score came on th'e Blue Devils' first possession of the third quarter after New Richmond falted to convert on a founh down try deep in their own territory. GalliaAcademy took over at the !,.ions' 20 yard line following the botched fake punt attempt and Jones scored a couple of plays later from 13 yards to increase the Blue Devil lead to 33'6 with 10:43 remaining in the period. The Blue' Devils got the ball back about a minute later and Simmons capped off a shon drive with a three yard burst into the end zone. After Payton ran for the two-point try, the Blue Devils led 41-6 with 8: 13 to play, GalliaAcademy's final score of the night came early in the fourth quarter. COLUMBl,JS, Ohio (AP) - Illinois qualified for its first. bowl in five years by bowling over Ohio : State. Kurt Kittner sliced up the 25th-ranked Buckeyes with four touchdown passes as the Fighting Illini le~cked up a winning season with a 46-20 victory Saturday. · It was the most points surrendered by Ohio State in Ohio Stadium.since Michigan hung a 58-6 loss on · the Buckeyes in 1946. In 87 previous meetings; the only time Illinois had scored more points against Ohio State was in 1904, 46-0. The loss prevented the Buckeyes (6-5, 3-4 Big Ten) from locking up a winning record. Ohio State must win at Michigan next week for a winning season to meet the minimum requirement ·to play in a bowl. Illinois (6-4, 3-4), which has won three of its last · four, beat Ohio State and Michigan on the road for the first time ever. So lopsided was the game that one of the biggest cheers of the game came when a middl!~·&ged man ran on the ·field midway through the fourth quarter with Illinois ahead, 43-20. Most of a crowd of 93.429 had left by that time. It was a meltdown of epic proportions for an Ohio State team that finished last season ranked No. 2, was ninth in the preseason poll and hadn't fallen out of the top 25 since the middle of the 1994 season. After a pulit on their first possession, the lllini scored the next four times they go the ball and six of · the next seven.

KALAMAZOO, Mich. (AP) - Experience in big games made all the difference in Chad Pennington's showdown with Tim Lester. Pennington passed for 339 yards and two touchdowns, becomin$ the fourth majorcollege quarterback to throw for I 00 TDs, as No-. 12 Marshall stayed undefeated with a 31-17 victory over Western Michigan. Marshall clinched a third straight Mid-American Conference East tide Saturday. The two quarterbacks, among the top five in the nation in passing efficiency, will meet again in three weeks. Western Michigan (7-3, 6-1 MAC) had already clinched the MAC West title. That means the Broncos will play Marshall (10.0, 7-0) on Dec. 3 at Huntington, W.Va. for the conference championship and a berth in the Motor City Bowl. Marshall, whose 14-game winning streak' is the nation's longest among Division I-A teams, has played in the last two Motor City bowls, losing to Mississippi in 1997 and beating Louisville last season. Pennington completed 27-of-40 passes to eight receivers. Lester hit 24-of-43 for 193 yards and one touchdown, but Marshall turned both of the intercep-' lions off him into scores. Marshall, handing the ball to Doug Chapman ·four straight times, quickly made it 7-0. Chapman, making his first start in two weeks, scored on a 3-yard sweep around right end. Chapman had I08 yards yards on 29 carries. The Broncos blocked a 49-yard field goal attempt by J.R. Jenkins late in the first quarter and went 25 yards in seven plays for Brad Selent's 53-yarder, closing the gap to 7-3. The Broncos put together a 63-yard, eight-play drive, climaxed by Robert Sanford's 4-yard run, to take a 10.7 lead with 4:35 left in the second quarter. It didn't last long. The Thundering Herd needed only I :40 to lead 14-10 as Pennington had completions of 14 and 38 yards in a 69-yard drive.climaxed by Chapman's !-yard dive. The Herd, one of only five undefeated Division I-A teams in the country going in, locked it up with three straight scores in the third quarter. The longest of those three drives took only I :49 to complete. • TVC hands out football awards to 10 Meigs County players- Stories on B-3 and B-5 • Sam Wilson praiseS Williamson in weekly column - B-4 • Stimrord beats Iowa 72·$8 in Coaches vs. Cancer champi· • Green wins Pennzoil 400 pole; Robinson ~ks to make NASCAR history - Stories on : o-a"l... game - StOry\ on U\~i 8·2 · , ·. · 8·5 , ltiHDil' , lilllllp 2475 Scialo Trail 285-5000 ; --------~----- ·-----·----- ·-- •.. , '• ' .. �'.

WVDNR fish biologist discusses fish hat$hery, barge traffic: Submitted by ODIE O'DONNELL GALLIPOLIS - Michael Hoefl, a fish biologist from the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources, addressed 45 members of t!'e Gallia County Conservation Club on the constructaon of a fish hatchery neat the Gallipolis Locks .and Dam, and the effects of Ohao Raver barge traffic on fish habitats at Wednesday's monthly meeting. Hoeft stated that creation of the fish hatchery on the West Virginia side of the Ohio River has been underway for two years. It contains 43 acres of land that is being con-,:erted into a system of ponds where different spieces of fish will he liatched and nurtured before being released, with the new facility ready for operation by 2001. : The speaker als,o noted that an ipcrease of towboats equipped with I I I newer model nozzle systems on the propellers is disturbing fish habitats by keeping the water very mupdy as they pass. He stated that the new systern on the boats creates great pressure as the water is sucked in, and then pushed out of the propellers. "This new system is great for ~he boats but keeps the Ohio muddy, which affects the fish near the shore· line on both sides of the river." President Steve Salisbury read a release from the Ohio Division of Wildlife with an update on improvments that have been made in the Crown, City Wildlife Area since it opened to the public in January, 1998. Information contained in the release included the planting of 5,000 Red Oak trees, planting of t:S acres of warm season grasses, and awarding a $345,000 contract for a survey of the area boundaries. . Approximately 10 miles of the 12·mill!"boundary survey have been completed, and the erection of signs as the survey is completed. One underground storage tank has been removed to prevent environmental ·contam'ination. Cooperative projects include providing town ships with 775 \Ons of roadstone for road maintenance, providing 12 culverts to townships for road lnaintenance, and paired with Symmes Valley Schools for construction of $3,000 worth of nest structures, such as wood duck boxes, bluebird boxes and bat houses. Wildlife officers have also issued 59 citations for wildlife violations in the Crown City Wildlife area since 1998.

In retrospect it was an energetic undertaking for the brand-new board of directors who ·had successfully jockeyed the Ariel along a demanding start·up course, only to set out headlong on an· equally challenging route. In 1992, they paused just long enough to accept an Ohio Historic Preservation Office Preservation Merit Award, one of only seven given in• the state, and in 1995, an Ohio Governor's Award.

ASSP has grown to 135 students, encompassing eight counties. With blood, sweat, tears and love from many volunteers and the Ariel The· alre's Composer in Residence, and also OVYO Music Director Scott Michal, the Ohio Valley Youth Orchestras were formed. The 60-member regional youth orchestras boast string, wind and brass players from six Ohio counties, as well as players from Virginia and West Virginia. • Less than a year ago, Ukranian immigrant Oleg Pavlov, a member of the Columbus Symphony and the ·ovs, spoke to several cl asses at Buckeye Hills Career Center.

Most recently, the troupe visited six Meigs County schools and four schools in Gallia County this past May. With educa· tion the primary goal, the children saw a performance, received informative handouts and had the opportunity to ask questions. Some even got the chance to hold the instruments and attempt a few notes. Other OVS youth programs include "Four Up Front" and "Maestro's Kids." • The Ariel also has offered many children's programs that focus on other areas. A Double Dutch Work· shop and Show was presented in July 1999 by the World Class Windsor Academy Colden Jumpers under the direction of former Gallipolis Oty Schools teacher Sandy Hunter. Area girls and boys aged 5 to 18 went to Will Power Tumbling to take part in a one·day Double Dutch rope·jumping workshop. They showed what they had learned, performing alongside the Windsor Jumpers on the Ariel stage that evening. · • Actor Fritz Klein of the Lincoln lnstiiute for Education in Springfield, Ill., appeared in April 1999 in a first-person impression of Abraham Lincoln, attended by over I ,200 schoolchildren. "A Message from Mr. Lincoln" was the closest thing to a trip back to the Civil War era they could ever hope for. This program was timed in order for the Ariel to be a participant in the annual Civil War Homecoming in the Gallipolis City Park. • This year, on Dec. 10, magician Taylor Martin performs as conjurer Professor Ceci l Rodney for area stu· dents during the day. An hour encore performance open to the pub) ic will be held that evening at 8 p.m. His show creatively intersperses educational messages with fun and laughter. Other unique ways to include area youth at the Ariel are through an "Ushers" program, "Brittany's Annual Prom Style Review," and the new "Best of the Basement Band Competition and Show" funded by an Ohio River Border Initiative grant.

Called the "Treble Makers," they began showcasing their barber· ' shop sound on the Ariel stage that , same year, an event that has become an annual summer event. Joining them are several nationally and internationally ranked quartets. • The Ariel Players is an .amateur community thespian group that pro· vides actors of all ages and abilities a medium for self-expression, cooperation and growth. It gives many others the opportunity to participate in the equally important work that , goes on backstage.

HANEY AP Medical Editor All.ANTA(AP) - You' ve heard this before: Eat sensibly. Avoid dgarettes. Get some exercise. Keep the weight down. Have only an ·occasional drink. But now there is good reason to really pay attention. Women who actually follow all of the standard health advice can reduce their chance of heart disease · an astonishing 82 percent, according to a study released Monday. · Many studies over ihe years have shown the importance of specific healthy habits. But Harvard Univer·sity researchers say theirs is the first to show what happens when people do everything they are supposed to. However, the; study also shows this isn't easy. The research was performed using middle-aged female nurses, who presumably are fairly health-conscious. Yet just I percent of them actually followed all the rules. The information is the latest to emerge from the landmark Nurses' Health Study, conducted at the Harvard School of Public Health. It was presented in Atlanta at a meeting of the American Hean Association. The researchers defined a hearthealthy lifestyle this way: -Don't smoke. - Avoid being overweight. This means having a body-mass index of 25 or less, (A woman 5-foot-4 who weights 145 pounds has a BMI of 25.) -Get at least a half-hour a day of moderate to vigorous exercise. - Drink moderately, an average of one-half or a little more drinks of alcohol a day. -Eat healthy food. This means avoiding saturated fats and getting relatively large amounts of fish oil, folate, fiber, vegetable oils and whole-grain products. to ethylene.

" We all have small works of art we love. whether it's a special photo you ' ve been carrying in your wallet, a print, a tiny antique or even a rare postage stamp," she said. " But the newest trend in framing says, ' If you love it. flaunt it.· You and your framer can achieve a reall y dram atic, exciting piece that makes a large statement on the wall by treating something small in thi s new way.n The trick, of course, is all in the proportion .

" One couple wanted to remember their honeymoon forever, including sand from the beach they visited. We did it."

Coffee was served European style in Demi Tasse cups. The chef at the Lafayette in 1928 was John F. Richter who came to Gallipolis from the Sherman House in Chicago. Mr. Richter was born in Hamburg, Germany and had learned his trade in.Cologne. He w as a chef at a number of European hotels. before becoming a chef on a German steamship luxury liner. In 1903 Richter came to America and worked in New York hotels before moving to Chicago. The Sherman House had dining capacity of nearly 7000 in all of its rooms . Under Richter it was not just the Thanksgiving dinner that was a lavish affair, but every Sunday Richter offered up a royal feast. The Sunday dinners in the Main Dining Room included such entrees as Roast Vermont Turkey. Filet Mignon. Deep Sea Scallops, Roast Steer Prime Ribs of Beef au Jus, Georgian Style Potatoes, Waldorf Salad with Whipped Cream, and Home Made Cakes and Pies. The Sunday dinners usually ran abo,ut $1. Dinners on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings included music with one of the most popular groups being Pete Sullivan atid his King Taste Orchestra. Dancing was permitted in the main dining hall on some Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Gallipolis Daily Tribune described in 1928 the Lafayette Main Dining Room: "Color tints here are of apple green and pink. Dimensions of this room are 48 feet by 25 feet. A large skylight makes it one of the brightest and most cheerful appearing rooms in the hotel. It is lighted at night by chandeliers in the French period style. Small table lamps are provided for in the arrangements. The .floor is of bird's eye maple, highly polished and suitable for dancing. Seating capacity at the table is about I00 persons." In 1928 the Lafayette also had a coffee shop and here one could buy on most days the "~Jlue Plate Special" for 35 cents. The coffee shop did most of its business at breakfast , time. On that Thanksgiving Day one could have attended the Union Thanksksgiving service at 10 a.m. at First Baptist Church. Rev. George Sagen was the host pastor. The sermon was given by Wood Duff of the Presbyterian Church. Special music was given by the combined choirs of the Baptist, and · Presbyterian, Episcopal Methodist churches. That afternoon the annual Gallipolis - Point Pleasant football game was played. On Thanksgiving evening the Elks had a charity dance. The next day shopping season opened and that evening the Masonic Lodge gave their annual dance. Work was begun on the Lafayette Hotel in May, 1927. The hotel was completed in early May of I 928. It was opened to the public on May 3, 1928, with E.R. Jamison of Columbus being the first official guest. The hotel building was designed by the architect John Q. Adams who also designed the Columbus City Hall and a number of high schools including those at New Lexington, · Newcomerstown and Mt. Sterling. Adams was also the designer of many of the Ohio University buildings of the 1920s (Ellis Hall, University Library, Science Hall and Boyd Hall) as well as the Majestic Theater in Athens.

''I' m just ready to save the network any time they call," he JOkes. Philbin may not have saved ABC, but his run at the helm of " Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" late this summer was the highlight of the network's year. The game show returns Sunday night for the November ratings "sweeps." After years as a journeyman on television 's daytime and late-n ight fringes. Regis Philbin is suddenly a prime-time star in demand. · Magazines beg this 65-year-old to be their cover boy. He has more interview requests than he can filL •! The Emmy Awards - whose daytime version has snubbed him for years - called Philbin for a g~est appearance on the prime-time show. Even the ultimate arbiter of show hiz heat. the MTV Video Awards, came calling. Philbin's joke holding up a worn copy of an album he made decades ago- was decidedly old school, but the hipsters roared in laughter just the same. Regis is a cheesy cultural icon. to be sure. He's an icon to have fun with, not to make fun of. It's hard not to like this genial Everyman from Brooklyn. His early shows. forerunners of "Live," gained him a small in local television in San Diego. St. Louis and Los Angeles. He was comedian Joey Bishop's sidekick on Bishop's late-night show, and in the 1980s he headed to New York City. Philbin wasn ' t the obvious choice to serve as host of " Millionaire." He had to plead to be considered . He had see n the British ver- sion of the game show and thought it had the ingredients to do well here. "Who knew it was going to be that big?" he says. "But I'm thrilled that it happened. You wait a lifetime for something like that and sometimes it never happens." TV networks are now scrambling to produce other game shows, hoping lightning strikes twice. Fox 's "Greed," which premieres Thursday, is the first entrant. No one really knows why "Millionaire " took off but television executives are anxious to see it repeated. "I'm just happy to be a part of it," Philbin says. "I bring that element of believability to it, likability. Sometimes big-money shows can be a little bit on the cold side, so I think if you have a host that people like, it helps." When the ratings came in, newspaper columnists advised Philbin to renegotiate his contract (he didn ' t). There was talk that he would be involved in a syndicated version of the show, but Philbin believes it works better as a special event and would lose steam if on the air every day. "I'm under contract here in the morning, I'm under contract for the night, " he says. ""I'm taken. My dance card is full ." The next few weeks will be a true test of the show 's staying power. It's on against the best other networks have to offer, not summer reruns. Fifteen years into its life, "Live With Regis and Kathie Lee" has no such worries. It's a secure daytime fixture, even though its dynamics have changed recently. · Regis used to be the nuttier half, the unpredictable one, grounded by the maternal Kathie Lee. Gifford has had a difficult few years, with her husband's affair played out in tabloids. and constant attacks about where her clothing line is produced. So now their roles arc reversed. ,. This summer's tabloid tempest critics noticed that the blouses Gifford wore on the air were suddenly getting more revealing - was one more sign that · something odd is going on in the chair next to Philbin. "Because of the tough times, she's a little more sensitive," Philbin says, speaking to a reporter a few minutes after another edition of "Live." "You'Ve got to watch what you're saying. You don't want to embarrass her. But I've got to tell you something - she's a fighter." He leaves it up to Gifford to either ignore the day's headlines or address them. This edition of uLive" isn't one for the time capsule: Gifford's away, so Philbin's wife, Joy, replaces her. A quiz with a call-in viewer is torpedoed by a malfunctioning phone. Guest John McEnroe shows up late, making for some last-minute shuffling. The audience is too subdued. Philbin's contract on " Live" runs through August 2()91. Gifford's expires next summer. They really don't.talk about how long they want to continue. "Every day- this does start to wear you down," he says. Don't let one bad day fool you into thinking he's not enjoying himself. Being busy beats the alterna• tive. These are wonderful times to be The Rcege. "It's better to be hot," he says. "It's fun . I know this business. I was perfectly content with my morning show. People would ask me, 'What's next?' There is nothing next. There are no more mountains for me to climb. Believe me when I tell you, all I wanted when I started this show in 1961 was . to be a sue· cess nationally.". I . EDITOR'S NOTE David Bauder can be reached al dbaud· er"at"ap.org Top networks taking vastly different approaches to welcoming new year I I Jl By DAVID BAUDER AP Television Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Clinking champagne nutes in a hotel ballroom or a styrofoam cup on the couch: America's top televi sion networks have different styles for celebrating the passage into the year 2000. ABC News is spending more than $5 million on a 24-hour, telethon -l ike bro~dcast anchored by Peter Jennings from Times Square beginning at 5 a.m. EST on Dec. 31. Although top-name entertainers will perform, it's largely a news show. CBS, meanwhile, has turned its New Year's Eve celebration over to its entertainment division and people like David Letterman and Steven Spielberg. NBC appears the least interested in Y2K, at least based on time set aside to mark the occasion. The network has largely kept its plans .under wraps. Intense millennia! interest isn't anything new at ABC News. The network spent more than $20 million compiling a documentary series, "The Century," which also begat a coffee-table book co-written by Jennings. " If all we did was cover fireworks and balls dropping, it wouldn' t be a very useful enterprise," said Tom Yellin, executive producer of ABC's Y2K coverage. "But if we use it as a chance to take a snapshot of the world at this particular time - where we've been and where we're going - then we're journalists again. And we view this · as a huge journalistic opportunity." Jennings' base is ABC's new studio in Times Square. opened this fall. The network is dispatching people all over the world Diane Sawyer to New Zealand. Barbara Walters to Paris, Charles Gibson to London. Competition was fierce for warm-weather assignments. The network even considered sending a reporter to Antarctica before backing out. ABC will have a camera there, though . Dozens of news reports are· being prepared, probably more than will ever make the aif. For instance, ABC will examine population trends in both rapidly growing India and shrinking Italy. Billy Joel, 'N Sync, Aretha Franklin, Sting, Ray Charles, Neil Diamond and others will perform. News' dominance over the celebration has reportedly miffed Dick Ciark, whose annual New Year 's role on ABC was reduced . More than half of 506 adults polled by ABC this summer said they were planning to stay home on New Year's Eve, so the network hopes for a big audience. "I think people before the day will be bored to tears by this, " Yellin said. "But on the day, I believe there's going to be a unique feeling in the air and this broadcast will be the place to experience that with the rest of the world." ABC is the American member of a group of 60 countries that will produce a 24-hour feed ofY2K sto- rics. The deal "is really a barrier to · entry for the other networks," Yellin sa id, '1because you can't do this yourself." News is largely being left out of the party at CBS, except for brief cut-ins or special reports . CBS's news people are instead concentrating on the days leading up to New Year:s Eve, like a Dec. 27 collaboration with Time magazine on "People of the Century." CBS plans a Letterman special at 8 p.m. EST New Year's Eve, then a one-hour music special. The network has broadcast rights to the White House-sponsored "America's Millennium Gala," a 2 112hour entertainment special produced by Quincy Jones and including a brief Spielberg film on this century's highlights. "The Early Show" will originate from Sydney on Dec. 31, coinciding with midnight there. CBS will also report from Taveuni, an island in Fiji where one side of the island celebrates the new year 24 hours before the other, said Linda · Mason, CBS spokeswoman. ABC and CBS planners say they haven't run into many people from NBC in their preparations, leading them to believe their rivdl is downplaying the event. • "If they haven't seen us, it's because we're someplace they're not," said Beth O'Connell, NBC executive producer for s_pecial events. NBC News has scheduled a two-hour special at 9 p.m. on Dec. 31 that will be "celebratory in nature ," O'Connell said. Jay Leno comes on at his usual time after local news, with a show that will be combined with news reports.

In mutual funds, timing may mean everything Web site offers investors chance to open a·c counts By JAY CALDWELL GALLIPOLIS .- Mutual funds provide an attractive investment vehicle for nearly all types of investors by offering diversification, flexible investment chmce,yrofesswnal management and easy access to your money. These attnbutes make mut~al funds appropriate for many financial plans. Consequently, the volume of mvestment m these co 111 panies has skyrocketed. However, mutual fund tnvestors should consider the timing of their purchases to avoid a possible tax rap. • Mutual funds accumulate ordinary income and capital gains which are . reflected in the fund 's net asset value. Generally, net asset value refers to the dollar value of one share ~f the fund's s.tock. The funds eventually distribute these accumulated capital gams and mcome m the form of dividends on a yearly basis. These dividends can be reinvested automatically to purchase more shares · or they can be paid directly to the shareholder. The net asset value drops corrcspondmgly to reflect those distributions. . The problem of ti~ing occurs for those investors. who make purchases nght before a dostnbut10n. These purchasers may end up paying tax on money they JUst put mto the fund, a painful tax bite especially for first-time shareholders . . Consider a first-time investor who purchases $20,000 wonh of mutual fund shares at $10 per share the day before the "record date." The fund has accumulated undistributed long-term capital gain of $2 per share and declares a $2 dtStnbutoon per share m August of 1998 to holders of record on the record date. The i~vestur may receive a check for $4.000 or may reinvest these divi dends. Either way, the mvestor must report this distribution as a long-term cap1tal gam on h1s or her tax return. If the investor is in the 28 percent bracket, he or she IS now on the hook for $800 in taxes for shares that may have been held for one day. Were the investor in a higher tax bracket and the distr_•button was short-term gain or an ordinary dividend, the taxes would be hogher. Avoiding this ta.x hit depends on the timing of your purchases. Find out when your respecttve fund makes Its yearly distribution. For most funds' stock, ot 's m D.~cember. Consider waiting beyond "record date" until the "exdovodend rate. As the net asset value drops to reflect the distribution , the shares woll also be cheaper. · The .tax bote doesn 't ·apply to investors buying fund shares for a taxdeferred retirement plan . Further, you should never delay your investment dectSoons solei y because of the tax considerations. For assistance, consult an mve~tment professional or financial planner and ask for a prospectus, which provodes complete details, including fees and charges.

But the tentative agreement between White House and congressional officials, brokered Sunday night, may also have angered some allies among his fellow Democrats and the abortion-rights community. The two sides struck the deal after about four hours of bru:gaini11g at the Capital. It would remove one of the toughest hurdles in the two sides ' quest to settle their budget dispute this week and adjourn Congress for the year. ·"The basic parameters are tied down," House Speaker Dennis Hasten, R-111. , told a reporter about the abortion and U.N. issues. Haslert tlew in from Illinois late Sunday to join the talks. Asked about setlling overall budget differences, he said, "We' re in a position where we can get it done. It's going to take hard work." · Hasten said he ~ad spoken with Clinton on Saturday night, before the pi~sident lefl on a I 0-day trip to Europe·. · The two sides agreed that for fiscal 2000 - which runs through next Sept. 30- the law would forbid federally supported groups from lobbying for <liberalize~-- abor.~?.t' _laws overseas. The president would be able to waive the restriction, but if he did, there would be a reduction in the $385 million the United States plans to spend this year for foreign family planning programs. The exact amount of the cut was not immediately available . In exchange, $926 million would be provided to pay dues the United States owes the United Nations. The plan was described by Hastert and administration and congressional officials who spoke on condition of anonymity. A White House official confirmed the tentative deal but said disagreement remained on an administration effort to let the International Monetary Fund expand its role m providing debt relief to poor countries. The official said there were other unresolved questions, such as' the timing of the U.N, payments. Aithough the agreement to limit overseas abortion activities would affect relatively few groups. it could be a major political v.ictory for antiabortion forces , and could help cement conservative support for a final budget deal. Clinton revoked a longtime ban on overseas abortoon advocacy shortly after taking office in 1993. and for years had fought off conservatives' efforts to reinstate· it. An agreement on a ban, even 'if the president can waive it, could anger abortion-rights gro.ups and many congressional Democrats.

WASHINGTON (AP) Although states are attempting to boost teacher quality, they are heading in the wrong direction with highly centralized, regulation-heavy policies, said a report issued today. The Thomas Fordham Foundation, a privately run .school-reform research organization, compiled data on policies it associates with teacher quality and concluded that most states stand in the way of ensuring that quality teachers get into the nation's classrooms. "A far more promising approach is to deregulate entry into teaching, devolve personnel authority to individual schools, and then hold those schools and their staffs to account for student learning that occurs in them," said foundation president Chester E. Finn Jr., who was an Education Department official in the Reagan administration. The Washington-based group evaluated states in areas that mcludcd .how they punish or reward teachers and admmistrators for student achievement, conduct checks of teachers ' backgrounds and college course work , and how much they give individual schools power to hire and lire teachers. States were also judged on whether their willingness to certify candidates that did not come from traditional college teacher preparation programs.

Medicare spending drops in FY 1999 WASHINGTON (AP) Medicare spending dropped slightly in fiscal year 1999, the first decline ever in the federal program that pays health care bills for 39 million Amerocans, government figures show. New statistics from the Treasury Department show that Medicare expenditures fell I percent to $212 billion m the fiscal year ending Sept. 30 , from $213.6 billion in the prior year. , Experts attributed the drop to cuts mandated by Congress, more careful billing practices by health care providers and a crackdown on fraud. But they said that Medicare spending is unlikely to continue falling because the elderly population os growing. ~· $ 129 billion this year.
