" Heller, who died Sunday of a heart attack at age 76, started his novel in the 1950s, when he was working in advertising and protest was mostly an underground movement. The book was published in 196 1, with no tour to support it and few reviews to alert anyone that a new kind of war story had been told. "When 'Catch -22' came out, people we re saying, ' Well , World War II wasn't like this,"' E.L. Doctorow. Heller's friend and fellow author. said Monday.

Mary Powell in period costuming greeted guests as they entered the courtroom, which featured a large tree trimmed with handmade decorations and displays of antique Otristmas decorations. Betty Milhoan shared her century· old collection of ornaments, many imported from Germany, a few made in occupied Japan, and several handed down from one generation to another in her family. She had stories about many of the Santas in her collection - one a childhood gift, another purchased in a junk box at an auction, and others made of celloloid and chalk. Then there were tree lights, a couple strings of the very first electric ones. One set was still in the original box, which noted that when "one goes out they all go out." And, yes, red honeycomb bells. A variety of tin candle holders and cookie cutters made by Jacob Bertzel, a German tin· smith who settled in Otester in the early 1800s, were also in the display. The beauty of the ceiling-high tree was in its simplicity. No expensive · ornaments, just 300 paper decorations made by the Eastern Elementary art students of Rebecca 'Edwards.

Mayor JoAnn Eads, right, and Marcia Elliott of the Rutland Civic Center Committee, were hard at work on Tuesday, putting the finishing touches on ·the Otristmas decorations at the center. Here, they are pictured decorating a special "Remembrance Tree." According to Elliott, residents are encouraged to place a special (but durable) ornament on the tree in memory of a loved one. A sign will be placed on porch ·of the Harder log cabin, pictured in the background, to recognize those who are remembered by the tree. There is no cost for placing an ornament on the · Remembrance Tree, and ornaments will be carefully preserved so'· that they can be used for future Christ· mas trees. Street decorations, made last year by the welding class at Meigs High School, under the direction of Rutland Councilman Dick Fetty, are also in place, and candy cane d~orations line the civic center walkway. The holiday r$aches a climax in Rutland on Sunday, with a Christmas parade. Lineup fO!'!the parade beginS at 1:30 p.m. along Brick Street, and will begin its route through the community at 2 p.'tn. No pre-registration is required, and according to Eads, all organizations, businesses and individuals from throughout the area - not just Rut· land - are to panicipate.

Page 6 • The Dally Sentinel December 15, 1999 Pomeroy, Middleport, Ohio :o o peop.le lose .all sense at Christm~s? Penguins defeat Bruins 4-2 I By ALAN ROBINSON PmSBURGH (AP) - One of general manager Craig Patrick's primary goals after bringing in Herb Brooks as coach was to gel the Pinsburgh Penguins back in the playoff race as quickly as possible. Was six days fast enough? The Penguins - loose, relaxed and confident since Brooks replaced Kevin Constantine - won their third in a row under their new coach, beating the Boston Bruins 4-2 Tuesday night. Six games under .500 before Brooks took over and in danger of plunging out of contention before Christmas, the Penguins are moving up in the Eastern Conference standings after dropping for nearly a month. " In my estimation, you don ~ t put greatness into the person, you- give him an environment to bring it out," Brooks said . "And there are great' playe rs here." The Penguins did it his way, controllm g the puck, giving their top scorers plenty of opportunities and minimi Lin g the Bruins' good scoring chances. But they al so did 11 their way. too 11 ith razzle am! dazzle. picturehoo k passes, brcakaways and far more creativity than they had under Constant ine. whose system was far less mdi vid ·•alistic than Brooks' is. ''['m happy with the chcmislry we' ve got goin g." Broo ks said . "That's somethin g that real ly matters in the loc ker room. We've got guys that have won the Olympi'Cs, world championships, Stanley Cups. Their altitude is very professional." The Penguins again played the uptempo, crisscrossing European style lhat Brooks prefers, yet limited Boston's good scoring chances as Jean-Sebastien Aubin made 24 saves. "They have two very dangerous lines going , and they' re wry European, " Bruins forward Rob DiMaio said . " If you let them wheel and deal, it may be fun to watch but it 's hard 10 play against them." Aubin allowed six goals while going 3- I during Tom ·Barrasso's four-game suspetision for slashing Toronto's Yanic Perreault, only to be rewarded with a return trip to Wilkes-Barre-Scranton of the AI1L.

(AP) - • Sabres stab Flyers 3-1; Devils, Predators, Oilers also win · NHL action By The Associated Press The Philadelphia Flyers aren't nearly as tough when Eric Lindros and John Vanbiesbrouck are watching instead of playing. · The Buffalo Sabres took advantage of the absence of the Ayers' lop ce nter and starting goalie to beat Philadelphia 3-1 Tuesday night. The Flyers, who lost consecutive games for the first time since Oct. 14-16, fell behind early and couldn't come back. ''The first period, we sat back and watched and paid for it." Phi ladelphia's John LeClair said . It didn' t he lp that Lindros and V.anbiesbrouck sat out. Vanbi~sbrouck was given a rest and Lindros sai out with soreness in his injured left hand, which was taped and still swollen before the game. Pltilad~lphia lost its second straight game since coach Roger Neilson announced last week that he has cancer. He is expected to begin chemotherapy today. The 65-year-old coach is to undergo several month s uf chemotherapy and then get a bune marrow transplant in March.

" At Buffalo, Maxim Afipogenov, Michal Grosck and Jason Woolley scored for the Sabres and rookie goalie Marlin Biron continued to impress in place of injured Dominik Hasek, with 23 saves for his lith· win . "That's what we 're working on, playing a solid game, " Grosek said. " There will be ups and downs. That 's just the way it works." The Flyers won 27 faceoffs and lost 46 to the opportunistic Sabres. · "They' re a good faceoff learn to begm with , and we had a tough time with them the last game even with Eric there, so tonight they won some key ones," Neil son said.

Beamer's Hokics led the nation in both scoring offense and defense, averaging 41.4 points and allowing just 10.5. Beamer, though, isn't taking all the credit. He says his coordinators , Bud Foster un defense and Rickey Bustle on offense, were given more responsibility this season, and all he's done is oversee the entire operation. • " I was very mvolved in the offense at one time , then the defense," Beamer said.

Bill Bradley accused Democratic rival AI Gore of paying mere "lip serVICe to reform " of the campaign finance system Tuesday in an attack that doubled as a lead-in to a joint appearance with Republ ican presidential hopeful John McCain later in the week. In seven years as vice president, Gore has " shown that he d·oesn 't care about reform as much as preservin g power," Bradley said in New York. "AI Gore is wedded to the ways of Washington ." . The Gore campaign tired back quickly. saying that Bradley was a " relative newcomer " to the issue and " pocketed millions in special interest cash " m the years after leaving Congress. The Democrats' daily. back-and-forth aside, Bradley and McCain meet ·Thursday in Claremont, N.H .. for a joint appearance devoted to campaign finance - a subject that McCain has made his signature issue in a surpris:mgly strong bid for his party 's nomination . :. The two men are expected to recreate the 1995 handshake by which Pres·•dent Chnton and Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich promised to set ·up a commission on reform . That commission never materialized. Both McCain and Bradley are campaigning as outsiders, scornful of the Washington establishment. They both are trying to overtake their parties' national front-runners - Gore for the Democrats and Texas Gov. George W. Bush forthe GOP - and claim victory in New Hampshire's first-in-the -nation ·primary on Feb. I. ·Kanauga. Ohio 108 Ube~ Slroel 6 P.M. • Bush gained an endorsement from campaign dropout Lamar Alexander. :' " He earned my respect the old-fashioned way. He defeated me.:· the former : Tennessee governor said wryly. With more than a month rematrnng before . the first voters speak in the Iowa caucuses, Alexander pronounced Bush the : nominee-for-sure. . • Other Republicans opviously didn't share his view, as Gary Bauer, Steve · Forbes, Alan Keyes and Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah all resumed thm campaign rounds. • McCain was in South Carolina, offering a middle-of-the-road prescription for health care that would let patients sue their H1,40s in federal court but impose a limit on the amount of money they could wm. • Gore campaigned in New Hampshire, where he hoped to hold off a recent · Bradley surge. . . . Spokesman Chris Lehane returned fire at Bradley on camprugn fmance, saying that while serving in Congress, Gore authored numerous b11ls to curb campaign spending. "The fact is Bradley waited 6,219 days afterjoining the Senate to author a campaign finance refonn bill," he added. Once he left, the campaign said in a statement, Bradley collected speaking fees and con-. suiting contracts from special interest groups. . Bradley had a different view in remarks in New York, and sa1d he had a " profound difference with AI Gore" on the issue. In seven years in power, he said Gore has "shown that he doesn '.t really care about reform as much as preserving power. That's why AI Gore and Washington don't really want change." Bradley, a former New Jersey senator, and McCain , scrving .his third Senate term from Arizona. have both pled ged to swear off so' called "soft money" if they win their part1es' nominati ons. Both will be angling for support of independent voters when they meet on Thursday in Claremont . where Gingrich and Clinton met four years ago. Independents ar" roughly as numerous as Republicans in New Hampshire and outnumber Democrats. They arc eligi ble to cast their ballot in either party 's presidential primary. Aides to both Bradley and McCain said they don' t view Thursday's appearance as a head-to-head compclition for the same yot ers , but rather an opportunit y to stress campaign finan ce O\'Cr,haul as we ll a ~ maxi mize th e turnout of the independents who lean their way. " This givc s me a chance to make my case in front of a wide audioncc." McCain sa id in an interview.

" He said although such s<rutiny is part of the nature of political life, he feel s so strongly that it is "a wonderful lite and immen sely rewarding" that he would encourage his daugh ter Che lsea to seck eleclive office. " (certainly would if she wanted to. Only if she wan1ed to." Clinton said. " You' ve golto want it , because it 's a high-pam-threshold business. She knows what the ups and downs are. If she wanted to do it, I would be as supportive as I cou ld. " The interview, conducted Dec . 3 in the Oval Office, was publi shed in People 's special year-end issue, expected on newsstands Friday, The . magazine avoided hard policy question s in order to dwell more on Clin ton 's personal insights and his lighthearted side. When asked how he feels when Americans label him a "good president, not so great a man ," because of his affair with Monica Lewinsky and subsequent impeachment, Clinton said all he can do is "try to be a good person and be grateful for the people who don't think I'm a bad guy." He said he is gratel'ul to have a loyal group of friends who have stood beside him throughout his presiden cy. Some of them, he said, are even more loyal now than two years ago, before his impeachment. " And the interesting thing is that · I became president because of my friends," Clinton said. " I didn 't come from a family with wealth or position history in politics. I was, in large or WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) - The owner of a warehouse where six firemeasure, carried through the diffifighters di.ct battling a blaze is Mfering the land for a permanent tribute. "As far as I am concerned, the land on which that buildmg stood has been consecrated by their acts of heroism ," owner Ding On Kwan wrote in a letter to city officials. The six men died Dec. 3 while trying to save homeless people believed Break•ast 'to be inside the burning building. With Santa!. ·· The city is considering Kwan 's offer, City Manager Thomas Hoover said, Dec_ 18th but first Kwan must continue to remove the crumbling rubble. 9-ll A.M _ · "Once that 's done, then we 'd be more than happy to work with Mr. Kwan .on his offer," Hoover said. At the warehouse site Tuesday, a state police lieutenant suffered minor cuts and bruisers when an interior brick wall collapsed on him. Martin Fay was pan of a team of workers who continued to comb for clues to what caused the fire. Meanwhile, Julie Ann Barnes, 19, one of the homeless people accused of .causing the infemCJ, ;.vas ruled competent to face the manslaughter charges. Barnes and her boyfriend, Thomas S. Levesque, 37, face six counts of involFAMILY untary manslaughter, one for each of the dead firefighters.

Virgil Larose, who took Barnes in a few years ago, said she knocked the candle over after Levesque slapped her. "She went to stand up and knocked the candle over," he said outside court. colties of the '91 and '92 campaign by my friends. So it means a lot to me that virtually every one of them stayed with me . Not uncritically, I might add ." Clinton also said : - The movie theater is the one thing hc'l.lmiss most about the White House when he leaves office , although his friend s frequently tell him he will miss Air Force One , the presi dential plane. the most. "I won't miss being told I can 't go out and run when I want to run, wherever I want to run, " Clinton said . • He plans to learn to use his computer more, starting with buying some Christmas gifts over the Internet.

Doug Keegan, a senior applied mathematics major, said Tuesday there were " minor discrepancies" in photos of the stack taken 36 and 60 hours before the Nov. 18 accident. "The main thing I noticed was slack in the perimeter lines," Keegan said, referring to cables connecting the stack's center pole to perimeter poles. "They are secondary signs that indi cate a lean to me. I may or may not be right. " Keegan found the photos on the uni versity's local computer network, where another student had posted them. They were shot with a movie camera, perched atop a building near the bonfire site, that provided a live feed to the university Web site. No complete recording of the feed is know n to ex ist. Us ing hi s computer, Keegan superimposed a grid over the photos and discovered what he believes is slack in the support cables on one side of the 7,000- log stack and a slight bow in the center pole. Poor li ghting in the images made it diffi cult to say co nclusively whether the center pole was leaning, he said. Keegan turned the photos over to the uni versity, which on Monday made them ava il able fo r public inspec tion. Thousands of documents re lating to the bonfire acc ident have been catalogued at A&M's Cushing Library. John Weese, an A&M professor of mechanical engineering, is serving as liaison between a five-member team in vestigating the collapse and faculty experts assistin g in the inquiry. He . said the ce nter pole and at least one of the perimeter lines will be looked at during the investigation. Benjamin Kelley, dean of Baylor University 's engineering and computer science school. believes uneven distribution of weight might explain the collapse. But he added that the materials and method used in constructing the bonfire stack make it "a very complicated structure."
