MEARS AP Special Correspondent WASHINGTON - Agenda-setting is the order of the month, the first round of the political salvos that will mark the election-year Congress and shape the coming campatgn. So Pre,sident Clinton is previewmg his, featuring a shrunken deficit now and a 1999 balanced budget, while warning Republicans he will fight attempts to spend a theoretical surplus on GOP-flavored tax cuts. He's seeking a health insurance break fur the not-quite-65 generation, a bonus Republicans say Medicare can't 'afford. It will be a politically poputo people retiring at 62, since they'd be able to buy Medicare cover for far less than private health insurance costs. · erlining the political point, Clinton's spokesman, Mike McCurry, said " if the Republican Congress decides not to do it, it can't happen." House Speaker Newt Gingrich, meanwhile, was outlining his GOP agenda, including a suggestion that the total tax take in peacetime should gradually be cut to no more than 25 percent of anybody's income. He said federal, state and local taxes now take up to 38 percent. He's already advocated annual federal tax reductions, including, in I998, relief from the marriage tax hit, in which many two-income couples pay higher rates than they would singly, and another lowering of mhentance levies. .. On taxes, Medicare and Social Security, they 're drawing lines for debate in the congressional session that begins in three weeks, and the off-year elections nine months hence. "We can begin the year with some good news," Clinton said Monday. He said the deficit this budget year will be under $22 billion, far smaller than · the $90 billion projected when the deal to balance the budget by 2002 "Yas reached only last summer. And for an encore: "The budget that! present to the Congress in February will be a balanced budget for 1999." Clinton credited his economic policy, although-Republicans insist they were the budget balancers before he was. Indeed, Gingrich said the GOP "management team" that took over Congress m 1995 shaped the economic surge since. Each side can claim evidence. Clinton's 1993 economic program included targeted tax increases and spending curbs that began biting into deficits, and 11 was enacted against unanimous Republican opposition. lnd!:ed, they used it against Democrats in capturing Congress the next year. But then, in 1995, GOP demands prodded . the White House into successive budget revisions that projected eventual - balance. · Now it is alm6st at hand, and there already are GOP tax-cut claims on the · : projected surpluses ahead.

The Herald-Dispatch cited friends and advisers to Moss. The sophomore, who set a Division 1-A.record with 25 touchdown receptions this season, has scheduled a 10 a.m. news conference on campus.

(AP) - As Nebraska prepared for the Orange Bowl, Ahman Green knew he was ready to pass up his senior year for the NFL draft. His record performance against Tennessee affirmed it. " I wanted to go out having a good bowl game for coach (Tom) Osborne and to have a great game so I knew I was making the right decision," Green said Wednesday as he declared himself eligible for April's draft.

"He has my blessing ." Moss caught at least one touchdown pass in each game of his college career. Underclassman must declare their intentions for the 1998 draft by Friday. The draft is in April. Moss has been projected as a top five pick. His physical allributes would help show why. At 6-foot-5, he is taller than most defensive backs and he's faster, with 4.25 speed in the 40-yard-dash. He also has a 39-inch vertical leap and huge hands with tentaclelike fingers that rarely drop passes It would be the end 10 an up and down college experience for Moss, He was named most valuable player and helped the Cornhuskers ( 13-0) earn a share of the national championship.

One of West Virginia's most celebrated high school athletes, Moss was headed to Notre Dame but the Irish revoked the scholarship after he was charged with attacking another student at DuPont High School. Moss pleaded guilt)' to battery and was sentenced to 30 days in jail. He was allowed to defer most of the sentence until after his freshman year.in college. Florida State was quick to roll out the welcome mal, but a year IIIler rolled it back up when Moss violated his probation by smoking marijuana. A one-year jail sentence' was reduced a month later to ttme served after he completed algebra and speech communications classes in a work;~~tudy program. Although Moss never played_at Florida State, coa~h Bobby Bowden was well aware of his talent. " He can run, he can jump, but what he does best is run like a scalded dog, " Bowden said before Moss ran afoul of the law and was kicked off the team. "He's just got so many tools, limitless tools." After his .release from jail, Moss walked on at Marshall and scon:d 28 touchdowns in his freshman season, leading the Thundering Herd to the Division 1-AA championship and a 15-0 record. This season, Marshall ( 10-3) returned to Division 1-A after' a 28-year absence and had' six catches for 173 yards, including an SO-yard touchdown, in lhe Motor City Bowl in Pontiac, Mich ., on Dec. 26. . ·.} years made little difference to Green. He said Osborne and running backs coach Frank Solich, who becomes head coach next month, both were supportive . "If coach Osborne was staying, I would still be going," Green said. "I talked it over with my family and coaches, but I decided for myself ba~ed on my dreams and goals in life. I just wanted 10 get to the NFL." In a statement released by the university, Solich praised Green's work ethic and leadership. saying: "I hope his pro career is as successful as his college career has been." A possible Heisman Trophy campaign made no impact. Green is the latest in a group of top players declaring for the draft, including Washington State quarterback Ryan Leaf, Penn State running back Cunis Enis and Washingtorr AllAmerica offensive linemen Olin Kreutz and Benji Olson.

At his school there, there is no school spirit and no extra curricular activities. He feels, however, that it is good to have such differences because of the learning experience. The biggest difference is the food, "it is not bad just different", commented Hyun-Do. That was the first thing he realized when he carne here. What he misses the most is the German Bratwurst and the Korean Food, Custom Homes . @ Meig$ High School By PAMELA NEECE Coming to the United States to attend high .school brings with it many changes, according to four of the foreign excl'iange students attending Meigs High School this year. For Ivana Najdonovic, born in Yugoslavia, and later moving Austria, her biggest adjustment came witH liv.ing in the country after having grown · :UP in the city. The 15-year-old fre shman says she likes America, but that 'it has taken some time for her to adjust to living in the country. She said that there are some differences in our sc hool s but not that ';many. The biggest difference -between our countries is the stzc ·although Austria is smaller than the -single state of Ohio. When asked what she misses the most, she replied the city. There are · more opponunities to do thmgs to . have fun and there are also more parties. " She has· spoken English for four years and can also speak four other languages and is stUdyrng two more. The Daily Sentinel• Page 9, All 'lard Sales Must Be Paid In Advance.

Clinton'·s Medicare expansion proposal stirs doubt for some " By LARRY WHEELER Gannett News Service WASHINGTON - President Clinton hopes to relieve Americans' retirement anxiety by expanding Medicare to early retirees, but it is not clear his plan will make a difference. Public opinion polls show more than two-thirds of workers would like to retire before 65, but many doubt Medicare will be there to help pay their medical bills. The younger the worker, the larger the doubt. Politicians and policy wonks tell us we're living longer. therefore we should work longer and rely less on costly social programs like Medicare. Yet Clinton says the nation can afford to expand the federal health care safety net to pre-Medicare retirees who arc priced out of the private health insurance market when they need ·it. most. The administration acknowledged the change would help very few people- perhaps 300.000 out of I mil lion uninsured in that age category. -' Republican congressional leaders oppose the change. Mixed signals. Hazy goals. Not a promising formul <t for the president's first major policy initiative of 1998 The nation c~nnot alford Medicare in its present form. "so it 's difficult to· understand why we should make . it even more unsustainable through this type of expansion," said Martha Phillips, executive director of the Concord Coalition, a policy organi zation which advocates eliminating federal budget deficits . In announcing his proposal, which will be part of the budget he sends to Congress next month, Clinton said more 55- to 64-year-old Americans are finding themselves out of work and with 'nO health insurance. "These people have spent their lifetimes working hard, supporting their families, contributing to soeicty,'; Clinton .said. "And just at ~he time they most need health care, they arc least attractive to health insurers ·who demand higher premiums or deny coverage outright." . . For the most part, the numbers support Clinton's theme. In 1988. 44 percent nf preMedicare retirees had health insuranue from a previous employer. By 1994. the number had fallen to 30 percent. There arc an estimated I million unin sured men and women hctween the a•cs 'of 62 and 64. Clinton would ~ivc "them access to Medicare but ~ harge a rl)onthly premium of about $300,that post-65 seniors do not have to pay.

Under tl\e new version, the school aid would be capped at $200 million, with any surplus above thtlt going back to taxpayers when they file their 1998 tax returns. Legislative leaders, meanwhile, continued the search for a comprehensive solution to the state's inadequate and inequitable school-Funding formula. On Thursday, Democrats succeeded in inserting language that would create a separate education budget for primary, secondary and higher educatian beginning with the next two-year budget cycle in 1999. House Speaker JoAnn Davidson, R-Reynoldsburg, told reportet:S that an increase in the state sales tax was again.being discussed . This time, the tax might be scaled back to a half-cent, Davidson said. Senate President Richard Finan, R-Cincinnati , satd the budget bill could be reconfigured to provide the basis for the Legislature's response to the Supreme Court. The bill could modify the way the state pays for public schools and define what the Legislature considers an adequate education. But the price · tag for the changes and any tax increase needed to pay it would be left to another bill, Finan said. 9:30-5 guards, board a Laurel Ltn1uu· sine Service limo en route to anoiher visit. ~lso pictured is chauffeur Ernie Miller.
