The United Mine Workers of America argues that the so-called ··reachback law'" was all that stood between people who spent their lives in diny. health-decaying labor and lifetime health benefits paid to pre· vious generations of miners. The justices demanded to be con- vinced of the existence of a lifetime guarantee. Several times they asked whether that merely was what unionized miners had come to expect because of generous contracts negotiated when the nation 's coal business was more robust. Justice Sandra Day O'Connor was interested in the absence of a specif· ic lifetime guarantee in most contracts between the miners' union and the coal companies. And Justice Antonio Scalia said the contracts required the con1panies lof decades to put a certain amount of money into the bene lit fund, with no suggestion ""that they would kick in whatever it takes· to pay indelinitely the medical bills of miners anil their dependents. He suggested that the only real guarantee might have been "lifetime benefits for people who were lucky enough to die before their company went out of business."' Lawyer Peter Buscemi, representing the union. said the fund returned to solvency by the disputed 1992 ·law now has about 76.933 beneticiaries. most of whom earned benelits by working for compani~s that are still in the coal business.

Lowoet ratea during tho winter months of Jan.-Feb.-Mar. a Physics class finds path . to accurate testing in lab By LINZIE NOTIINGHAM Meigs high school physics studenls now have a way to get accurate lab results. How'' Experiments are done by using the Science Workshop program and an interface from PASCO. Students of Rick Ash's physics class have performed these computerized labs utilizing this technology. PASCO allows the students to learn physics in a modernized handson way. Not on ly does the lab allow the students 10 grasp the concepts of physics soundly. but it also allows the students to become fami liar with the workin gs of a computer. Every Tuesd ay the physics class starrs a new lab. Most are regular labs. one is computeri zed. The computcri zed lab is very d1fferen1 from the regular labs. To begin the compuremed lab the students perform the experiment wh ile ihe com puter records th' data. Nex t. the students use the bu•IHn calculator to gel lhe~r resulls. .The computer then does a graphical anal y,is of the data. The computer also shows how the graph shouiJ look. so that the students can see how close their calculations really were. If the percent error is too far off. the experiment can be repeated several limes during the 90-minute period; whereas. regular labs can only be performed once or twice during this time. Not only do the students support these types of labs. many teachers all over the U.S. support them also. Surveys taken concerning computerized labs have shown three dramatic changes: higher scones, higher productivity among students. and a high er number of s1uden1s enrolling in science classes. These types of results are predictable and can only improve with more stude nt exposure. Computerized labs are a great example of how schools are lechnologically advancing in Meigs County. The labs provide hands on experience with computers and help students understand and enforce whal their textbook says. Speaking from experience I can say that computerized labs are very motivalional and do help students beuer understand science concepts. 113 W. 2ND ST.

Teresa Drummer and Gary Slavin, shown here, dis· cussed their volunteer roles with the Ohio COVERTS Project. A "covert" is a thicket that provides shelter for wildlife. The Coverts Project is a special volunteer outreach educational program on the topic of forest, land .and wildlife management. New volunteers are often identified and nominated by county or state natural resource professionals or current members because they have expressed an interest in managing their land. The mission of Coverts' members is to improve wildlife habitat through good forestry and land management practices.
