school children.
·
The Vole No on Issue 2 campaign, bankrolled by the United Auto Workers. the Ohio Federation ofTeachers and other labor and education groups,
planned to spe_nd $200,000 on TV spots showing a fat cat supponer of Issue
2 sucking money out of a taxpayer's pockels with a shop vacuum.
Other opposition television and radio ads are being financed by the U.S.
Senate campaign of Democrat Mary Boyle. Republican state Treasurer J. Kennelh Blackwell and the National Taxpayers Union.
"We're going to be working through Monday," said Brian Rothenberg,
spokesman for the Vote No cwnpaign. But the campaign is running on a shoe-·
siring bud&amp;et. and "it's not go,ng to compare with the frequency of their ads,
that's for certain," he sai'd.
·
But when it comes to increa.~ing taxes. the no side may only need enough
ads to plant some doubts, observed Scott Brooks. associate director of the
University of Akron's Ray C. Bliss Institute for Applied Politics.

NBA playoffs move Into conference semifinal play

Knicks, Jazz win series finales; Bulls take opf!!~er
•

By CHRIS SHERIDAN
AP Basketball Wrltar
We've seen the la.~t of the first
round, and we ~an S..y goodbye to the
Miami Heat and Houston Rocketsthanks to the New York Knicks anl
Utah Jazz.
We've also seen the first glimpse
of the second round, where the Charlotte Hornets' moment of glory dido't last long against the Chicago
Bulls.
New York and Utah advanced to
the second round Sunday with a pair
of comfortable victories that dido 't
really match the drama each series
had already produced.'
The Knicks knocked out the Alonzo Mourning-less Heat with relative
ease, 98-81, and the Jazz did the sa.me
to the Charles Barkley-less Rocket~.

84-70.
The Bulls. meanwhile, remained a
step ahead of everyone - as ·well as
the lone remaining undefeated playoff team - by withSiaOding an early burst by the Hornets in a 83-70 victory.
The second round continues
tonight With the Los Angeles Lakers
traveling to Seattle for Game I.
The other two series begin lUesday with New York at Indiana and
San Antonio at Utah.
Knkks 98, Heat 8i
Looking to avenge the disastrous
ending to the 1996-97 season when
five suspensions resulted from a.
Game 5 brawl, the Knicks showed
the Heat how mudr thoy've learned
about thriving :without their franchise
center.

Playoff veterans from Buck
Williams (12 points, 14 rebounds) to
John Starks (22 points) lo Charles
Oakley (18 points) complemented
Allari Houston's 30 points, and the
Knicks kepi their' poise after Miami
used a 21-3 run to close within two
points midway through the fourtb :
quaner.
"It was a great win, 'one of many
more to come," Terry Cummings
said.
Miami looked lost without Alonzo Mourning, who doomed Miami's
chances by foolishly throwing a
punch at Larry Johnson of the Knicks
with 1.4 second left in Game 4.
The Heat had no inside game
without Mourning, and Tim Hardaway was a non-factor for most of
Sunday's game . .

Barr said.
Barr said, "I felt our kids here at

wait in line to ca.~h the check. especially during bad weather or times ot
ill-health.
Direct Deposit is also more efficient and economic for thC government bCc:ause . it's cheaper than
preparing and mailing monthly benefits. To be exact. the government
saves 40 cents each time someone
uses direct deposit instead of a check.
It costs 42 cents to process and mail
each check, compared to 2 cents for
direct deposit. To better illustrlle this,
if the 24 million beneficiaries cur·

direct deposit, the savings to Social
Security would be $9.6 million per

Birds of a different feather
County farmer raises ostriches for .profit
By Michele Caner
What bird produces red meat, leather for
boots, toenails for an aphrodisiac and eyelashes
for false eyelashes? Give up? The ostrich.
Converted beef producer Randy Colegrove
and his wife, Joanne, have taken to raising
ostriches at their Apple Grove farm.
"They are the easiest thing to keep and easy
to take care of," Randy said. "I've given up the
cattle business and rented out my pasture."
Travelers on Jerry's Run Road have slowed
or stopped beside the road to watch the J~rge
birds, that are rarely seen outside of a zoo, in
their pen. One large male, nicknamed "Van
Damme", performs his own Jiule dance to
attract the ostrich hens and to warn off intruders. He sits, fans his wings and moves his head
and Ion~~: neck from side to side.
.
According to Randy, it means don't even
think about coming in "my" territory. "They are
very territorial," he said. "If you are outside of
tbe fence you are fine, but don 't try to go inside
of it."
Randy said one ostrich farmer went into a
·pen .and came out with broken bones after a
short period. "You have to watch the fegs," he
said. "They... will knock you down and then

stomp on you, scraping with their one toenail at
the same time."
Getting involved in the ostrich business was
a fluke, he said. A man he dealt in eallle with
from Ohio called biro because he had something he wanted him to see, When Randy went
in the bam, there stood a ostrich ben and rooster. Following some research, he found it was a
lucrative busine_ss and bought the birds. ·
"If I had 1.000 birds, I could sell them,"
Randy said. "There .is a high demand and short
supply."
·
· ·
Ostrich meat is lower in fat and cholesterol
than beef, chicken, pork and venison. According to Randy, hospitals 'and nursing homes like
to use ostrich meat because of the nutritional
value. The taste? It tastes like good .beef. The
problem? It is very expensive. ·
For tenderloin, fan, top loin, inside strip and
outside strip, the going price per pound is
$12.95. For pre-marinated, steak seasoning leg
steaks, a buyer is looking at $9.95 per pound.
Ground steak (like hamburger) is $4.95 per
· pound, breakfast sausage is $5.95, and a precooked deli roast is $8.95.
· On a slaughter ostrich (ranging in size from
230-280 pounds), there· is usually 90 to 100
pounds of meat, Randy said. Wben he is ready

·to have· birds slaughtered, tliey ire Iostricbea eat? The slaughter birds
taken to Statesville, NC to a USDA are fed dairy feeder and com while
approved plant. All of the processed the breeder birds are on a special
meat, which is vacuum packed and breeder food.

"There are processing plants · Next year, Ran4ly and Joanne are
closer, but they are much more planning to raise their herd of

"I love ostrich meat," Joanne birds. They have constructed pens
said. She fri1s up the pre-marinated
leg steaks in oil with a little bit of
seasoning salt. "One thing about
ostrich meat, it oooks up faster and it
plumps up, it doesn 't shrink," she
said.
·
According to Joanne, a relative
was visiting who was not keen on
trying' ostrich meat so during break'
l'ast, she cooked up some of the
Cons~ruction
ostrich .sausage and he loved it.
"We were educated fast on these
birds," Randy said. "They can grow
from birth to slaughter size in one
year. Your investment in each is
approximately $100."
·
These birds, which have a brain
the size•of a quarter, begin mating
season when the weather warms,
Rljldy said. The average hen can
produce approximately 50 eggs,
which are so _large,that the contents
•
are equal to two and a half regular
eggs, during the season.
·.
It takes a little over a year to
determine if an ostrich is male or
. female, Randy said. To be successful in breeding. a female must be
two years old and a male must be
three years old. The .bird~ can live 70
to 80 years.
·
Due to the humidity factor, the
eggs are kept for 10 days before
being taken to an incubation bam
where the temperature is steady
between 6S and 70 degrees. The
incubation period i.s 40 days and
when the eggs hatch; the chicks are
12 inches tall.
One interesting facr about tbe
nurturing of the eggs, the roosters
make the nests for the females and
then sit on the eggs, Randy 5aid.
Do ostriches really bury their
beads in the sand? No, they pick

their home to house them.
"The maio expense in raising
these birds is preparing for them and
adding pens," Randy said. He added
he had over S1,000 in the six foot
woven wire fencing for tho pens. ·
Watching the large birds is quite
entertaining, but how do you know
if an ostrich is happy?·They run and
twirl- just as they do at Colegrove
Farms Ostrich Ranch.

Sentenci.ng to feature Kaczynski~.victltn confrontation
By RICHARD COLE
••eocl.a.d.Pfesa Wrttw
· SACRAMENTO. Calif. - The Unabomber's victims have one last chance
to confront the man who maimed their bodies and killed their loved ones when
Theodore Kaczynski goes before a judge to be sentenced 10 life behind bars.
The 55-year-old for:mer math professor was 10 be senfenced today to four
life terms in prison plus 30 years for killing three men and maiming two otllers. The sentence was part of a January plea bargain thai saved him from a
trial and possible death by lethal injection.
.
As pan of the plea bargain, Kaczynski ~~:knowledged responsibility for
a1116 Unabomber attacks between 1978 and 1995. He will be sent to highsecurity federal prison. possibly in J,.ompoc or in Colorado.
.
Whether Kaczynski will speak before U.S. District Judge Garland Burrell Jr., noc even his own attorneys can say.
"I don't know what he'll do," defense anomey Quin Denvir said. "I think
it's unlikely, but with him, you never know."
A half dozen of his victims or their families do have something to tell the
court, however.

Clinton backers
deny ex-assistant ·
got hush .money.
By PETE YOST
Auocleted Preas Writer
LI1TLE ROCK. Ark.- Cliiuon supporters and Webster Hubbell's lawyer
took the offensive Sunday in the prison tapes controversy, critiCizing Republican Rep. Dan Burton for deletipg Hubbell's assenions that Hillary Rod·
'ham Cli1110n is innocent and !hat Hubbell wasn't being paid hush money.
: In response, Bunon said his investigaton edited !he tapes to protect the
·Hubbell family's privacy and the congres.•man offered to relea,se all ISO hours
of tapes -· an idea that Hubbell lawyer John Nields quickly shot down.
"If. anyone believes" Bunon's explanation about protecting privacy, "I
have a bridge to sell them," former White House counsel Jack Quinn said
on NBC's "Meet the Press."
·
Ponions of Hubbell's prison tapes released to the news media had been
edited by Burton's committee "so as 10 change their meaning," Nicilds said
on ABC's "This Week With Sam Donaldson and Cokie Robens."
"None of this should be released. None ofit! Absolutely none of it." Nields
said when told of Burton's.offer. "I want none of it talked about .... This is
very, very wrong."
.
Bunon, chairman of the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee, began releasing portions of Hubbell's prison phone calls last Thursday when the former associate attorney general was indicced for conspiracy •
and tax evasion.
The committee's ranking Democrat. Henry Waxman, demanded an imme·
diate session of the panel to decide "how to remedy this unconscionable sit·
·uation. You have unilaterallY sllbpoenaed these tapes, unilaterally released
them, and apparently unilaterally altered the content to ·~it your purposes...
Nields rejected the suggestion that iii one prison phone call, the lawyer
and Hubbell were discussing a possible presidential ·pardon. Nields said that
.he and Hubbell were discussing a grant of immunity fi'OOlthe office of White·
water proSecUtor Kenneth Stair, which he received shonly after the 1996 pres.idential election.
.
·
·
: • Hubbell "has sat down with people in the Independent Coupsel's Office
·for over I00 hours and if they are trying to pressure him now, it is not to
cooperate. it's because they don'tlike.what he said and they want to make
'him say something different." Nields said.
On NBC's "Meet the Press," Burtori was confronted With two of Hubbell's
,taped calls with his wife about the Whitewater inVestigation. In one. Hubbell
tells Suzy Hubbell that Mrs. Clinton "ju!ll had no idea what was going on"
at the Rose Law Firm regarding 1111¥ billing inel!ularities by attorneys. In
another tape. Hubbell tells his'wife that despite suggestions in newspaper
anicles that friends of the Clintons are buying Hubbell's silence, "we know
that's not true."
Bunon left out those comments when he released excerpts of those two
conversations.
"The only reason we didn't release the.other 149 hour.~" of Hubbell's tapes
"wa.• not 10 hide ·anything but to protec~ the privacy of Mr. and Mrs. Hubbell."
said Bunon.
.
· ''I'll be very happy romorrow momina to release all of the tapes if the
White House wanL&lt; me to and if Mr. Hubbc;ll's a~torney wants me to," Bur·
ton added.
Bunon'• comments are "(rankly devastating," said Quinn.
"He talks about honor, talb about integrity. talks about&amp;ettins to the
truth," Quinn said of Burton. "He tells the American people ihat he left out
all this exculpatory information ... and that the exculpatory information waq
left out to protect Mr. Hubbell's privacy.... How he can possibly pretend to
conduct an impanial and fair set of hearings in this matter is beyond belief."
Nields objected to the editing of another prison call in which Nields and
• Hubbell discuss amending his tax return 10 include all his income.
Excised from the tape is Nields's comment that "this is an attorney-client
privileged conversation. Nob&lt;idy should listen any rurther."
. Nields and Hubbell both apparently knew that their conversations was .
being taped by prison authorities.
·
In that conversation, Nields explains to Hu):lbell about tiling a revised tax
return. Nields explai~ that the first return was tiled while Hubbell was in
jail and that Hubbell hadn't read it. Nields comment raised what could be a
defense for Hubbell's tax evasion case, which was filed against him Thursday. He is accused of not paying taxes on hundreds of thousands of dollars
in consulting payments arranged for him by friends of the Clintons.

Susan Mosser's husband, advenising executive Thomu Mosser, died in
• his New Jersey kitchen when one of Kaczynski's bombs shredded hi1 body
only a few feet from his wife and daughterJ. She wants 10 speU. today.
"No one !alb about the nails thai perforaled my husbllld's hean and shot
into his brain," she told The Star·Ledaer of Newark. "No one talks about
the chopped up pieces of ...- blade that ripped out his stomach. ... Does
anybody have any idea whal that horrible thina did 10 Tom? W1W it could
have done 10 my children?" .
Kaczynski's 18-year bombing campaign chansed the WI)' Americans mail
.packases and board airplanes, and at its heiJbt in July 1995, vinually shut ·
down air travel on the West Coast.
In his Unabomber manifesto, KaCzynski claimed a moral hiJb .ground.
justifying the attacks in the name bf preserving humanity and natun: from
the n:lentless onslaught of technology and exploitation.
The journals found by FBI investigaton in his Montana mountain cabin ·
instead revealed a cynical, apparently sexually .confused killer who deliaht·
ed in his bloody explosions and caned linle .for the outside world.
