By Ibis point, passen~ers hacl seen

Wounded Capitol shooter charged
with murder in deaths of 2 officers
By DONALD M•.ROTHBERG
Auoc:lated Press Writer

,

WASHINGTON - A troubled
loner accused of shooting his way
into lhe Capitol and fatally wounding
1wo police otr~~:ers was charged with
murder Saturday as he lay in crilical
condilion in a hOspital. The suspect's
motives remained unknown.
Less than 24 hours after the shooting, the Capitol Building reopened to
tourists, many of whom left llowers
in tribute to the slain officers.
Russell E. Weston Jr.• 41, from
Rimini, Mont., was listed in critical
condition after undergoing a second
round of surgery for gunshot wounds.
An affidavit filed in U.S. District
Court in support of the charges said
lhal when Weston was IPPfOIChed
just inside an entrance to the CapiiOI
by officer Jacob 1, Chestnut. "West·
on took out a handgun he had in his
possess1on, pointed it at Officer
Chestn11t's head. uid then fired it."

Moments later a sec;ond officer
was fatally wounded in an exchange
of gunfire. Weslon also was downed
and'subdued.
-Additional chArges are pending.
According to the FBI affidavil.
Wes1on had "add.itional ammunition
in his pockets."
A tearful House Speaker Newt
Gingrich, R-Ga.. delivered the
Republican weekly radio address
and asked Americans to join him in

prayer.

.

"Please help this country learn to
live with its freedom. Please help
those who are troubled learn to live
peacefully with their problems," said
the speaker, a tear nmnina down his
riaht cheek.
Dr. Paul Oriaifo at D.C. General
HOspital said Weston sutfeted muhiple pnshot woond.~ and his chances
of survival wm "about 50-.50." The

doctor ·descrihed Wellton as "combative" when he arrived at the hos·

pita!.
Weston was subdued just inside
the office complex occupied by
House Republican Whip Tom DeLay
of Texas.
"Probably that was lhe only door
he could get into, .. DeLay said when
a.•ked if he thought he might have
been a target. The congressman said
the door wa.~ "usually unlocked."
Delay said Monday's House session would be devoted to tributes to
tbe slain officen;. The House will pas.&lt;

Sgt. Dan Nichols. spokesman for

CINCINNATI (AP) - Health
officials say boaters are ignoring
warnings that high bacteria levels in
the Ohio River could make them sick.
especially if they water ski or splash
around on personal watercraft.
The Cincinnati Health Depanment said last week that the Ohio
River water quality index had
reached 40, the sixth straight week
the river has been deemed unhealthful for recreational use.
But marina managers said people
ignored the warnings because sunshine, moderate temperatures and
decent river depths created some of
the summer's best conditions for
boating.
"These warnings always seem to
come out during .holidays or special
events," said Terry Quinn, manager
of the Rivenowne Marina. "A lot of
people look at it as crying wolf. ·•
Dr. Achal Garg, the health depanmenl toxicologist who compiles the
water quality index, said boaters are
nining with a real health risk.
" The index is so high. I cenainly
would not go out on the river this
weekend." Garg said.
Boat owners wouldn't have had
much use for their boats this year if
they followed the warnings. There
hasn't been a "good" iime to be on
the river all season.
Of the 12 weeks tested since May
5, seven have been unhealthful and
live were classilled as moderate
health risks.

It is this 1.;ocess, in fact. that

WASHINGTON- Mary Boyle's
auempt to replace John Glenn as
Democratic senator from Ohio is getting no boost from the state's most
popular Democrat: John Glenn.
Because of the ngors of his
upcoming space mission. Glenn has
been a no-show in this year's Senate
race between Boyle and Republican
Gov. George Voinovich.
Back in April, Glenn announced
he would not he doing any active
campaigning this year. He hasn 't
even endorsed Boyle.
AI a meeting with reporters in
Washington Ia&lt;! week, Boyle was
asked how Glenn was helping her.
"By doing whal he's doing: continuong to fight hard and work every
day on the tssues !hat really mauer to
him." Boyle responded.
Then. in a lower and somewhat
subdued voice. she added: "We stay
in !ouch abnul the race and how

Glenn's political director. Dale
But land. saic.l it wasn'l jusllhe train·

"This space mission is being paid
for by all of the taxpayers." But land
said. "The senator heloeves 11 would

oul of the fray."
Glenn has said. " When you're
part of a N~SA group like I am down
there. those people are n61 out whtle
they· re in training doing polo tical
speeches and things. "
Butland argued !hat no statewide
officeholder has campaigned harder
or for a' many candidates as Glenn
has over the past 20 years.
In 1988. for example. Glenn
served a• c&lt;Khairman of then-Sen.

" Bul this year is a bit differenl."
Butland said.

"Right now. he is entirely focused

Butland said it should be no secret
that Glenn supports his ldl ow
Democrats, mcluding Boyle. even
though he hasn't endorsed her.

· WASHINGTON (AP)- Eight
months ago. U.S. intelligence esti(llated Iran was a decade away
from developing a medium -range
missile capable of rea~:hing Israel.
Iran tested such a missile last
week, pointing to the vulnerability of U.S. troops in the Middle East
:and to the fragility of intelligence
estimates.
Clinton administration officials,
. while saying they anticipated the
Iranian teSI, now offer no solid estimates on how soon Iran may field
a force of medium-range missiles
. now that it has tested one. Nor
could the Pentagon state whether
or when it will be able to reliably
defend U.S. troops against such a
missile. And an exhaustive study
on ballistic missiles says the ability of U.S. intelligence to warn
against new emerging threats is
waning.
The Shahab-3 missile tested is
capable of reaching Israel as well
as the thousands of U.S. troops stationed in Saudi Arabia. The missile
test came as unequivocally bad

GM considers cost-cutting
actions as strike continues
AP Auto Writer
FLINT. Mich. - The arbitration hearing to consider General Motors
Corp.'s charge that the United Auto Worilers strikes against it violate their
national contract shifted Friday to the city where the costly dispute began.
At the same time. the automaker's top six executives met in Detroit to
discuss contingency plans in ca.&gt;e the strikes dmg on into August. The meeting of the President 's Council was in advance of the company's board meeting Aug. 3.
The cost-saving measures that have been discussed include ending medical benefit s for the more than 100.000 UAW members idled by the strikes
at two pans plants in Flint. The union has said that if that were to happen,
it would provide coverage at il&gt; expense. as it is for the 9.200 strikers.
GM Vice President Donald C. Hackworth was expected to announce this
weekend that the benefits will be continued for at least another week. GM
has been reviewing the issue on a weekly ba.' is.
· Company officials declined to comment on the agenda before the President's Council. The Wall Street Journal. quoting unidentified sources, reponed Friday that the agenda included proposals to reduce the number of models GM offers. along with options for restructuring the company through possible U.S. plant closures.
·
There also were reports that the automaker was making progress in getting replacement parts made so it can reopen some of its a.&gt;sembly plants.
The Journal said the Delphi parts plant in Reynosa. Mexico. was operating
24 hours a day making dashboard instrument clusters that could be used in
GM's redesigned pickups.
· GM declined to comment on the reports.
UAW Vice President Richard Shoemaker dismissed GM's efforts.
"One thing I know. they can't assemble can very successfully without
us," Shoemaker said. "And they know that."
· A.&gt;of Friday, GM said about 192,900 of its employees in the United States.
Mexico and Canada were idled by the strikes, not counting the strikers. Only
two of GM 's 29 major. wholly owned assembly plants in 1'!/onh America
remained open: the Sa!Um plant in Tennessee and another small-car plant in
Mexico.
·
At the arbitration hearing Friday. GM compleled its testimony. The UAW
began presenting iu case and was to continue ~aturday. GM spokeswoman
Charlotte Grim said lawyers expected the heanng to conclude Saturday.
There was no indication when arbilftlor Thomas L. Roberts would issue
a ruling.

The Tigers took a 2-0 lead in the fourth on Gabe
Alvarez's RBI single and Fryman's error on Joe
Siddall's grounder to third with the bases loaded.
Detroit began the inning by achieving the difficult task
of hitting back·to-back doubles without scoring a runthanks to an odd scoring call.
Bobby Higginson led off the inning with a double,
and Clark scorched a liner to right that Ramirez misjudged and dropped. That was scored a double. too, but
Higginson had to stop at third .
As he so often does, Ramirez made up for his gaffe
with his bat. After Thome walked with one out in the
Cleveland founh, Ramirez homerrrl to right to tie it at
2. The Indians took a 3-2 lead on Sandy Alomar's RBI
groundout.
Ramirez had more misadventures afield in the seventh. spinning around on Siddall's fly ball that dropped
on the track for a double. He made a nice, diving effort
on Hunter's liner. but couldn't hold on and it went for
an RBI double.
Notes: Alomar returned to the lineup after missing
seven games with a strained right hamstring .... The last
game at Jacobs Field that wasn 't sold out was against
the Tigers, on June 7, 1995 . ... Cruz made a Vizqucllike play on Vizquel's grounder in the third . He
snatched it with his ~are hand after it rolled up his glove
and threw Vizquel out. ... The last' Cleveland pitcher to

CLEVELAND (AP) - Manny Ramirez homered,
doubled and drove in three runs to help Bartolo Colon
get his II th victory as the Cleveland Indians beat the
Detroit Tigers 6-5 Saturday.
Colon ( 11 -S) lost his grip on the AL ERA lead ,
allowing four earned runs and seven hits in six innings
with four walks and four strikeouts. The 22 -year-old's
ERA rose from 2.60 to 2.74. Boston' s Pedro Martinez
now leads the league at 2.71.
Ramirez hit a two-run shot in the fourth, his 22nd,
and an RBI double in the fifth to atone for a couple of
defensive lapses. Kenny Lofton snapped an 0-for- 13
skid with a single in the fifth, eluding a tag in a rundown that led to three Cleveland runs.
The Tigers got two runs against Colon in the sixth on
Joe Randa 's RBI groundout and Brian Hunter's RBI
double to cut it to 6-4, then loaded the bases against
Ron Villone and Paul Shuey in the seventh. But pinchhitter Frank Catalanotto grounded into a double play.
Tony Clark was 4-for-5 with two doubles, including
one in the ninth . He was thrown out at the plate by
Lofton on Luis Gonzalez's single.
Geronimo Berroa made it 6-5 with a single off Mike
Jackson. who closed it out for his 25th save.

HOWLAND. Ohio (AP) Veteran Dottie Pepper stole the
thunder of rookie Se Ri Pak, matching the course record with an 8under-par 64 Saturday to take a twostroke lead heading into the final
round of the Giant Eagle LPGA
Classic.
Pepper, who has won 14 touma111Cflts in II years on tour but none
in the last two years. started hot and
never let up after starting the day
1wo shots back of Pak and three
other co-leaders.
"My goal was 15-under," Pepper
said. "After I picked up four or five
birdies early, I came up short. I
didn't know what I shot- I didn't
even care."
The 64, after an opening 67, left
Pepper at 13-under 131 in the 54hole event at Avalon Lakes Golf
Course.
"I want to keep going lower and
lower instead of letting the leaderboard dictate how I play," Pepper
said.
Kate Golden shot a 65 and was at
11 -under. with Pak going without a
hogey for the second day in a row
while shooting a 69 to finish at 10~nller 134. Also at I0-under was
another Korean native. Pearl Sinn.
who had a 65 in the second round .
Pos:ing birdies in spurts, Pepper
opened with hack-to-back birdies,
then strung together three in a row
start!r.g at the lifth hole. After stan-

ing the back side with. two more after heavy rains earlier in t[)e week.
birdies, she blasted out of the greenside bunker to 12 feet on the par-5
closing hole and hit the birdie putt.
Her score matched the course
record previously reached by eventual champion Tammie Green and
Anna Acker-Macosko in last year's
first round and eventual winner
Michelle McGann in 1996.
It was her iron play that fueled
her scoring on the front side. She
tapped in for a birdie at No. 5 after
almost holing a sand wedge, then hit
a pitching wedge to 4 feet at No . 6
and a 6-iron to eight feet at the seventh hole.
Pepper, the 1992 tour player of
die-year. hasn't won since finishing
first in four tournaments in 1996.
She had 27 putts and hit 17
greens in regulation while missing
just 1wo fairways.
Golden hasn't finished higher
than a tie for 20th in her 15 starts
this. year, but she birdied five out of
six holes in the middle of her round
to climb into contention. Birdies at
the fifth and sixth holes were fol- .
lowed by a bogey at No. 7 before
she put together birdies on the next
three holes.
Six of her eight birdies came on
putts of at least 10 feet.
"It feels smooth rig hi now, ..
Golden said. "Everything i ~ working out for me. I'm having;; ball."
Pak said she had difliculty reading putts as the course dried out

· Golf, like tennis, has spent a great deal of time marketing its young staB.
~n tenms, however, a player is washed up by the age of 25. That's the redSOn
tl, has los I popularity among middle-aged audiences. Golf, as shown by
0 Meara's most recent performance, is a game for life. Like a fine wine,
player.; get beuer with age.
Unlike golf, the auempl to create a senior circuit for !ennis was a complete busl. Golf's senior tournaments oftentimes draw greater crowds and
coverage than the PGA. No one wants to see 50-year-old tennis stars in
aCtiOn.
· . Without a doubt, Ihe LPGA is also more popular than women's tennis. We
mtghl as well put tennis in a category with gymnastics and figure skating.
They have become sports for the very young. They have lost most of their
appeal among elder sports fans.
· Naturally, golf fans could not resist the attraction of young stars like Tiger
Woods, who fmtshed one stroke off the lead, and Justin Rose, the 17-yearold am~teur who finished jus! two strokes off the pace.
But m lhe end, 11 was 0' Meara who brought home the trophy. Nike has

Bu1 then again, Nike should have understood that the competition in golf
has achiCved a level that no individual will dominate the sport as Arnie and
Jack did in the past.
After the open, O'Meara flew home to "savor this victory" with his wife
and two ktds. He plans to play next at the PGA Championship in midAugust. That's one of the reasons I like O'Meara. I would have done the
same lhing.
I also like O'Meara because, unlike the younger golfers, he's my age. I
can Identify with him. It's jus! nice to see a possible athlete-of-the-year who
isn't in high school or considering retirement at the old age of 35. I would
like to sec him with the PGA for good measure. He's worked hard for his

NEW YORK (API- In just five

Pak hits eagle, leads Giant Eagle Classic
By RUSTY MILLER
, HOWLAND. Ohio (AP) - Now
you know why they call it the Giant
Eagle.
Se Ri Pak rolled in a seven-foot
eagle pull on the closing hole for a 7under-par 65 and a share of the lead
after Friday's opening round of the
Giant Eagle LPGA Classic.
It wa~ just another day in the life
of the 20-year-old LPGA rookie who
has won two major championships
this year.
She upstaged the other members
of her star-powered playing group by
piling up five birdies and no bogeys
to go with her giant eagle.
"I wasn't thinking about the trouble. no." she said --Almost everything is like easy and perfect. Tomorrow and the last two days, maybe
more easy."
Pak, playing in the same group
wilh lwo of the tour's most dominant
playeB. Annika Sorenstam and Karrie Webb. seldom encountered trouble.
"Two times today, almost big
trouble." she said. ,But both times she
got up and down for pars. ·
The u·nnappable South Korean
said she enjoyed matching shots and
wits with Sorenstam and Webb.

I have been asked about whether Mark MeOw ire will break Roger Maris '
record. I believe he will, provided he stays healthy. It's a marvelous pursuit
by a quality player. Although breaking Ruth's record did not land Maris in
baseball's Hall of fame, McGwire's record will do the trick for him.
McGwire's pace is incredible when you realize he's already walked over
100 times this season. In San Diego last Monday, the Padres walked him
With the bases loaded. Now !hat's respect! Only Barry Bonds was treated
with similar reverence this season.
How important are these walks to the record? Th~y're not! It just illustrates, among other factors, that McGwire bas less opportunities to hit home
runs. Cons1der that Ken Griffey Jr. has walked around 40 times this year.
This statistic just helps the average fan put McGwire's feat in perspective.
- In the evenings, I find myself turning the radio to KMOX not to see if the
Cardinals are winning, because they probably aren't, but to follow MeGwire's pursuit of the record.
.
I know now how fans must have felt in 1941 when Joe DiMaggio was
pursuing his 56-game hitting streak. The familiar refrain of "did he get
another" was heard in diners and cabs throughout the country.
My pick for the surprise team of this year is the Philadelphia Phillies.
What a remarkable turnaround! Unfortunately, their success is lost because
they find themselves in the same division as the Braves.
Even though the Braves are the best team in the league, Braves fans
should be concerned because closer Mark Woh.leB can't find the plate to
save his life and the Chicago Cubs have their number. If Chicago is the wild
card team, they can beat ·the Braves in a five-game series. Once again, lhe
Braves face an uncertain fate in the postseason.

provided by the
Wil&lt;llife
of the otlio Depanment of Natural
Resources:
Southeast
DOW LAKE- Heavy growth of
aquatic vegetation can make this a'
tough lake for bass anglers. The
edges of lily pads and other vegetation does provide some of the best
locations to usc surface lures, poppers and plastic worms when seeking largemouth bass. This is the best
time of year to fish for channel catfish. Fish along the bottom with traditional baits during late evening for
best results.
LAKE ALMA - This 73-acre
lake in Vinton County holds largemouth hass but also has dense vegetation . Anglers who carefully fish
along the edges of this vegetation
with wecdless lures and Texas and
Carolina rigs may still catch bass.
Sunfish measuring six to eight inches and blucgills from five to seven
inches can be caught in shallow
water of three to seven feet.
Southwest
. GRAND LAKE ST. MARYS The rocks along the cast and west
shores and the woody areas in the
channels and tributaries arc amon8
the best locations to catch largemouth bass. Fishing for channel catfish is rated excellent. Night fishing
is best. Trotlincs may be used in a
restricted area . Usc live minnows
and larval baits on perch spreaders
or crappie rigs when fishing for yellow perch. Most fish will measure
seven to I0 inches.
ACTON LAKE - The best
bluegill fishing is found around the
woody shoreline cover in the lower
half of the lake. For best results, use
larval baits, red worms and mealworms beneath a bobber. Most
channel catfish, some weighing up
to I0 pounds, are caught at night.
Central
RUSH CREEK LAKE Channel catfish measuring up to 16
·inches can be found in this 300-acre
lake two miles cast of Rushville.
Most catfish anglers use cut baits,
chicken livers. shrimp and night

crawlers. li's best to fish on the lake
bottom at night. Use larval baits or
red worms to catch bluegills. The
lake also has crappies and largemouth bass.
MADISON LAKE An
CKpanding population of channel
catfish makes this I00-acre Madison
County lake a summenime favorite
for night fishing. Some of these fish
measure up to 18 inches.
Largemouth bass also arc present.
Use small spinners, imitation baits
and surface lures along shoreline
areas_ during the early mornings and
evenmgs.
Northwest
FINDLAY RESERVOIR NO. 2
- This upground reservoir contains
walleyes that measure II to 29 inches. Try using a balloon fishing technique where baits such as night
crawlers and shad can be drifted at
various depths . Yellow perch measuring seven to 10 inches can .be
taken on pef!:h spreaders fished near
the bottom. The shoreline areas with
aquatic vegetation and submerged
structures are the best spots to fish
for largemouth bass. The reservoir
also has channel catfish and bullheads.
LAKE LA SU AN AREA This wildlife area in Williams
County is remote but offers 13 lakes
that arc full of largemouth bass and
hluegills . These lakes have some of
the highest catch rates of any lakes
in Ohio. Rcdcar and pumpkinseed
sunfish measuring eight inches or
larger arc caught in Lakes La Su An,
Jerry, Clem and Lou. Anglers may
commonly catch 30 bass a day in
some lakes, but the fish are protected by length limits and daily bag
limits and must be released.
Northeast
ATWOOD LAKE - Anglers are
catching saugcyes weighing four to
five pounds when trolling with a
variety of spoons and plugs at
depths of I0 to 15 feet. The best
times to fish are shortly before sunrise and after sunset. Largemouth
bass measure 12 to 23 inches. Look
for areas with submerged structure
and use topwater baits, small crank
baits, spinners and plastic worms.
NIMISILA RESERVOIR Largemouth bass measuring more
than 12 inches can be found in this
lake, based upon 1995 surveys. The
outlook this year has been rated

eKcellent.

Lake Erie
Central basin walleye anglers
continue to catch steclhead trout
measuring up to 32 inches . Most
anglers are trolling with dipsy divers
and various types and colors of

spoons at depths of 30 to SS feet.
The general area to find walleyes
extends 10 to 18 miles northwest of
Fairport Harbor, Ashtabula and
Conneaut. Walleyes are measuring
16 to 28 inches. Some yellow perch
are being caught off of Cleveland by

anglers usine spreaders tipped with
minnows. The int¥e crib remains
one of the top perching spots.
In the western basin, walleye
fishing is good to els;ellent. The best
spots include the areas around the
shipping channel, West and Middle

Sister islands, the reef complex, the
Lorain sandbar and the area three to
five miles off of Huron. Anglers arc
using bouom bouncers and weightforward spinners tipped with night
crawlers. Trolling with deep-diving
crankbaits also works well .

~a Texas thing.

·"
There wasn't any overriding· imperative
that said that all the members of Lonestar
must, in fact, hail from the Lone Star State.
It just worked out that way.
When the band was just starting out,
recalled John Rich, • we had a drummer
from Iowa. • Now, with the addition of
drummer Keech Rainwater, the quintet is a
Lone Star entity in fact, as well as in name.
"It kind of became a requirement to be a
Texan and to be a Dallas Cowboy fan,"
acknowledged Dean Sams.
It is a measure of the state's size and com. plexity that three of the band members hail
from the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, and
two from the West Texas Panhandle; two
regions in the same state, but 400 miles apart
in distance and light years apart in attitude.
That same diversity is reflected in Lonesrar, the band's debut album for BNA
Records. Produced by Don Cook (Brooks
&amp; Dunn, Shenandoah, The Mavericks) and
Grammy-winning songwriter and producer
Wally Wilson, and anchored by the vocals
of John Rich and Richie McDonald, the
album spans ballads,
sassy honkytonk twosteps, energetic . rockers,
dramatic
production
numbers and intimate
chronicles of love lost
and found.
"I think our goal in
the studio was to capture
what we do live, because
our show is pretty
rockin', a lot of energy,"
said John Rich. "And
Don Cook is th~ king of
capturing energy on
tape, so he was the perfect producer for us. As
far as Richie and I, he
was good at picking out
what songs he thought
Richie would be good
singing, and what songs
I would be good singing.
He pretty much nailed
both our grooves:
Richie's got a real
smooth voice, he's more
of a balladeer type, and
I've got more of a
honkytonk voice."
"I think we both com·
plement each other, •
added
McDonald.
"We're both kind of right
there."
The band had its ori·

to forming a band after they met John Rich
and Michael Britt. Britt had been playing in
a group called Canyon and, on his recommendation, the fledgling band called
Canyon's drummer, Keech Rainwater, and.
asked him to come to Nashville.
· "When I sat down to play with them,"
said Rainwater, "I knew from the first song
we ever played together (a cover of the
Eagles' 'Best of My Love') that it was special. I was just blown away with the pure,
pristin~ vocals. The group ~eemed to gel
real well together."
In January 1993, the gtoup made its
inaugural appearance at Nashville's Backstage Pass under the name Teliassee. A
bookioa ••t at that show liked what be
heard and put the band out on the road. On
the road and then some- in 1993, the band
played a dizzying U7 shows. The following year they added 213 more.
But it was at a month-long stand in Reno,
Nevada in early '93 that the band reached a
turning point: its members began to write
songs together. Four songs the band members have had a·hand in compoling ("I Love
the Way You Do That, • "Runnin' Away With
My Heart," "Does Your Daddy Know About
Me," and "When Cowboys Didn't Dance")
appear on their debut album.
"From the very start," added Michael
Britt, "we said none of us wanted to be in a
bar band forever. I either wanted to play
with an artist or be in a good, solid band, so
we were focused from the very beginning.
From the first month we were together we
said, let's try to get a record deal. And
everything we did focused towards that
goal."
The first single from Lonestar, "Tequila
Talkin," capitalizes on many of the band's
strengths, from the- intertwined harmonies
to the solidly danceable tempo and expressive lyrics. Combine those elements with
the Poco-esque vibrancy of "Heartbroke
Every Day," the attitude-to-bum sass of
"Does Your Daddy Know About Me, • and
the diverse appeal of the group begins to
make itself manifest.
"We're proud of how much we've
already been through together," said
Michael Britt. "We've eKperienced things
that would have broken up weaker bands."
In TeKas, musicians learn to hang tough and
fill the dance floor; Lonestar has proven
adept at doing both.

from an incredible artist and his three piece
band. What more can be said about a little
boy whose papa looked sown at him some
thirty years ago and said, "Son, some day
you're going to be a star." All their dreams
came true and now you know him as Daron
Norwood.
Daron's papa never let him lose sight of
his dream. At the age of 19, Daron switched
from his family's gospel band into the
world of Country Music. Leaving his small
Texas town with big dreams Daron like
most, headed for Nashville. Within two
weeks he landed a job playing keyboards
for Jim Ed Brown on the Grand Ole Opry.
Only a short four years later, Daron was
discovered at the buckboard in Atlanta,
Georgia by John Gallichio and later introduced to Producer James Stroud whom he
credits for his successes and his first single.
"If It Wasn't For Her, I Wouldn 't Have
You," first reached radio airways by Jay
Phillips, it was later voted "Most Replayed
Song of 1994," by Billboard Magazine.
Since then Daron has followed up with
such hits as, "Cowboys Don 'I Cry", "If I
Ever Love Again", "Bad Dog No Biscuit",
and "My Girl Friday."
For the past two years of Daron 's career,
he has been fulfilling a promise to himself
to give back to others, because .of the
opportunities and chances that were given
to him. He spends as much time as he can
visiting schools, warning kids of the effects
of drugs and alcohol. To put it plain and
simple, "I give them a pep talk for the good
life," said Daron. Daron speaks of experiences he has had in the past and feels if he

Spielberg's quest is more important than destination

"Saving Private Ryan" is the
most harrowing war movie you'll
ever see, with the most intensely
brutal and realistic battle scenes ever
captured on film .
Yet there is more - much more
- to this wrenching Steven Spielberg project. In its story about the
nature of sacrifice, bravery and
heroism, Spielberg sends his characters, and takes his audience, on a
journey to the most primal of emotions.
Like many of Spielberg's films,
"Saving Private Ryan " is about a
quest. And in any quest, as Spielberg
and screenwriter Robert Rodal are
well aware, the journey is more
important than the destination .
Set on and after D-Day, "Saving
Private Ryan" focuses on a squad of
U.S. soldiers who, having survived
the Normandy invasion at Omaha
Bear.h, are sent on a special mission
into the still-unstable French countryside.
Three brothers from an Iowa
family named Ryan have been killed
in the same week, two of them during the D-Day push. A fourth Ryan
brother parachuted into France in

Having already survived the Normandy invasion, Miller now must

Miller's squad to begin to grumble:
Why are they risking their necks,
jumping into increasingly perilous
skirmishes, for one man? Are their
lives worth so much less than
Ryan 's?
Miller remains steadfast, an officer following an order. Inwardly,
however, he suffers crushing doubts
each time the mission claims the life
of another man under his command.
As he explains to his sergeant (Tom
Sizemore), he tells himself that he
somehow will be able to save 10 or
20 more for each one he loses.
"And that 's how you rationalize
the choice between the mission and
the men." he says
This kind of war film has been
made before, usually with an eye
toward mythologizing the U.S. GI.
Spielberg, how ever, tries instead to
capture the moment-to-moment
quality of life in a war zone, whether

those moments are spent tramping
across the countryside, smoking and
shooting ihe bull , or huddling
behind an embankment waiting for a
tank attack.
Employing handheld cameras to
create a documentary feeling to the
battle footage, Spielberg plunges the
audience into the carnage and confusion of World War II. That's true
both in the initial D-Day sequence
and the film's finale, in which an
undermanned squad must defend a
bridge against a strong German
auack.
The result is as visceral as action
foo&amp;age gets - and as true to life
(and death). The D-Day sequence
occupies the first 30 minutes of the
film . They are almost agonizing to
watch, as the helpless Americans try
to gain inches of ground against the
incessant and deadly machine-gun
barrage the Nazis lay down. No mat-

ter how righteous the cause, there is
nothing glorious about this kind of
warfare, Spielberg shows.
And that seems to be his point all
the way through. As these men fight
Nazis, bicker among themselves and
watch each other's backs, they must
constantly confront (or deny) the
fact that death is not only a possibility but a probability.
There are no grand speeches
about America or the Allies' cause.
Rather, each man does what he has
to do, what he is forced to do by the
se'ljuences. And Spielberg doesn '1
hesitate to show the emotional toll
this kind of tension takes. These
men are not above brutalizing or
even executing a Gennan prisoner in
anger, when one of their squadmates
is killed.
There are no simple moral
answers here. Even Capt. Miller
finds himself lorn between his

humanity - the innate sense of
intellectual abhorrence of what he
must do - and the simple survival
instinct that requires him lo kill enemies and sacrifice his own men to
protect his country.
In the end, this film says that
bravery must be defined as the ability to do what needs to be done, not
just in the face of overwhelming
odds but in the face of overwhelming fear - lo ignore the survival
instinct thai says. " Run' " and channel it into fighting for your life
instead. Spielberg's characters have
no thoughts of heroism; they simpl y
want to get home in one piece

RODNEY, OHIO

Gennett News Service
: From its opening moments, when bloody hell erupts on Omaha Beach,
Steven Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan" is hard to watch.
· But it 's important to see.
: With its riveting combat drama played out against a D-Day backdrop,
"l)aving Private Ryan" is a masterpiece on World War II heroism.
· The film will hold your heart hostage for nearly three hours with its
relentless, realistic carnage, its portraits of ordinary men displaying extraordinary courage, and its complex moral dilemmas.
; For "Saving Private Ryan" is about eight men who barely survive D-Day,
only to be asked to risk their lives to save another G.l.
·
· · He's Pvt. Ryan (Malt Damon), a paratrooper who must be found and sent
home because his three brothers have all been killed elsewhere in the war,
and the Army doesn't want his mother to lose her sole surviving son.
Tom Hanks stars as Capt. John Miller, the quietly competent leader of the
squadron given the Ryan rescue duty.
In a performance that ranks among the best by this two-time Oscar winner, Hanks creates a new kind of war hero, a complex figure with fears and
doubts, but also a conviction to do his duty, if only scJ he can go home.
Spielberg guided Hanks and the capable supporting actors, including Ed
Bums and Tom Sizemore, to rare performances that arc totally free of
machismo or bravado. ·
Though "Saving Private Ryan" marks a return to the clear;P~t good and evil
of the World War II film, Spielberg injects a new, terrifying realism, perhaps
generated by the unblinking honesty of a filmmaker raised in the Vietnam era.
Filmmaker Sam Fuller once said the only true war movie would include
snipers shooting at the movie audience. Spielberg doesn 't go that far, but
filmgoers still will be rocked by the horrors before them .
: The herky-jerky hand-held cameras of Oscar-winning cinematographer
Janusz Kaminski bring the immediacy of news footage to invasion scenes of
incredible carnage, as blood, body parts and dead fi~h besmirch the surf of
Normandy.
But through such intensely violent scenes - and the actions of the men
depicted so brilliantly in them - filmgoers will understand better than ever
the price many of our fathers and grandfathers paid to secure our freedom.

:Film returns to the ·'good war' with 'Saving Private Ryan'
8y JACK GARNER
Gannett ,.._ Service
War is hell.
But it can also make a hell of a
movie.
· · Pioneering filmmaker D.W. Griffith knew it in 1914 when he made
Hollywood's first great war epic about the Civil War, 50 years earlier.
Nld Steven Spielberg knows it now.
Friday he'll release another great
film, also based on a war from a
half-«ntury ago.
From "Birth of a Nation " to
"Saving Private Ryan," filmmakers
have tume~ to life-or-death combat
to ignite memorable movies.
War makes great drama, except,
perhaps, when the war itself is
murky. In recent decades, most war
·movies have addressed the nation 's
complex feelings about Vietnam.
.. The Deer Hunter," "Platoon,"

"Apocalypse Now" - such films
wrestled with a morally ambiguous
conflict, waged without the support
of many, that handed our nation its
first conclusive military defeat.
"Saving Private Ryan" signals a
profound shift. Spielberg's D-Day
drama is the first of a wave of films
that will return the spotlight to our
"good" war - the righteous, heroic
triumph of World War II.
"My father, who is 81, fought in
World War II," Spielberg said during an interview to promote the new
film . "I wanted to do somethmg for
my dad, and give him something
back. Not unlike the stories he told
me about his wanime experiences."
Nearly a dozen more World War
n films are in the works, notably
Terrence Malick's "The Thin Red
-Line," a Guadalcanal saga with
George Clooney, John Travolta and
Scan Penn, due later this year.
· Paramount has two films in mind: It
·recently optioned the old TV series
"Combat" and is developing "With
·Wings of Eagles," based on the
memoirs of a bombardier.
HBO is currently airing a madefor-cable World War II drama called

"When Trumpets Fade," and some
smaller theaters already are showing
"The land Girls," a British drama
about England's homefront efforts
to replace its fighting farmers with
women_
Classic World War II films, especially those starring John Wayne,
remain popular. Cable TV's American Movie Classics channel's recent
preservation festival spotlighted
combat movies.
World War II films " offer clearcut victories over a clear-cut evil,"
says Mark Betz, programmer for the
film archive at the George Eastman
House in Rochester, N.Y. After all,
the war was fought to save the world
from totalitarianism.
Tom Hanks, the star of "Saving
Private Ryan," agrees. "World War
II films require no editorializing
abOut why we were there," he says .
"The Nazis were bad, the Japanese
Empire was an evil thing, the world
was at war. Period. The end."
Thus, in war movies "you get to
exist in a world of great clarity, and
they're about guys who are just trying
to survive from one day to the next. I

it still does, there are still millions
out there ·who were involved in
World War II-, one way or the other;
many more than in Vietnam."
The enlisted men who did .most
of the fighting were only 19 or 20
during the war, he says. Now in their
70s, many of these men want to read
about .. their" war.

"There is a spurt in such films,"
Ambrose says.
"The recent (1994) 50th anniversary (of D-Day and other key
events) is one part of it. And I did a
study of newspapers, magazines and
books of 1913, 1914, 1915, and they
devoted a lot of atteotion to the Civil
War of 50 years earlier.
"More specifically, in 1998, we
live in an age without any heroes.
People need heroes, and World War
II gives us all kinds of heroes, and
these heroes were ordinary guys,
caught up in e&lt;traordinary times.
" They met the demaods placed
on them," Ambrose says, "and
that's genuine heroism."
Spielberg and Hanks believe many
of the forthcoming films are just a
case of filmmakers jumping on a
bandwagon.

There's no hero like a war movie

"Film is like a battleground:

ine the "last Good War."
"It's the biggest event of the 20th in a word, emotion," said the late
century," Ambrose says. "And it Sam Fuller, a World War n combat
had the most participants, which veteran and a gritty, hard-nosed
means it has a built-in audience. And filmmaker, in a 1980 interview for

"The Big Red One," his autobiographical pontait of a squad of Gls
in the European invasion.
Filmmakers also like the technical challenge.
"War movies provide lots of
opportunities for testing the range of
sound and technology in film," says
the Eastman House's Betz.
"Once sound came along (in
1927), they became a favorite movie
form , along with other noise-generating genres, like musicals and
gangster movies.
" It's an epic fomn," he adds.
"The scope is big, at least with
World War I and World War II films.
Vietnam films tend to focus more on
smaller groups."
Such films also give free rein to
man's worst impulses.
"The battlefield is a world in
which the laws, beliefs, behavior,
and morality of civilization are suspended," writes John Belton, author
of " American Cinema/American
Culture." (McGraw Hill)
" It is not merely permitted for
one man to kill another; it is imperative for him to do so."
In "The Big Red One," a young
foot soldier says, "I can't murder
anyone."
"We don't murder," answers his

sergeant. "We kill."
And war movies quickly arrive at
elemental issues.
"Everything in the Army is simple," a soldier says in "A Walk in
the Sun" (1945). "You live or you
die."
Because war films stir emotions so
powerfully, they've long been
among Hollywood's most politicized. War movies, like soldiers, seldom settle for the middle ground.
During World War II, Hollywood
filmmakers and stars felt obliged to
do their part. Some enlisted, some
pitched war bonds, some made patriotic movies. They depicted war as
hard but gallant: Americans were
clearly in the right, and the Germans
and Japanese were ignoble foes who

deserved defeat.
"Films became a form of propaganda, supponing the war effon,"
Betz says.
And for more than a decade after
the war ended, movies continued to
offer rousing adventures of wanime
heroics: This was the era of John
Wayne.
Wayne "personified the ideal soldier, sailor, or Marine," writes

lawrence H. Suid in "Guts and
GLory - Great American War
Movies" (Addison-Wesley).
Half a century after he starred in
"Sands of lwo Jima," "(John)
Wayne and his military image con-.
tinue to pervade American society
and culture."
In his most recent appearance in
uniform, he's a digitally resurrected
beer pitchman.
By the mid-1960s, the political tone
of war movies had turned. Thanks to
Vietnam, patriotism fell out of favor
and war films all but disappeared
from the screen. The only significant
exception was John Wayne's gungho rant, "The Green Berets."
After Americans fled Saigon,
Hollywood tiptoed back to war
films. but gave them a more negative slant. Soldiers were depicted as
fodder for slaughter, pawns in a cynical game designed by politicians,
generals and industrialists. ·
"War films became a form of dissent," Betz says.
But with "Saving Private Ryan"
and the other new World War II
films, Hollywood is returning to
familiar ground.
However, the painful, bloody
tone of "Saving Private Ryan" suggests a different spin on an old
theme. This time, the writers, directors, technicians and actors are products of the skepticism of the Vietnarn era.
In "Saving Private Ryan," the

heroism and sacrifice are evident,
but so is the incredibly high price ..
This isn 't about grand, romanticized:
adventure ; it 's about doing your
duty, despite a horrific cost.
.
In a 1980 interview for "The Btg.
Red One," Sam Fuller pointed ou~
that tl!e perfect war movie can't possibly be made.
" A war movie is just like a man.
doing an autopsy on his own body.
It's impossible," he told me.
"You can make a real love story.
You can make a real mystery ... but
you cannot, absolutely cannot, make
a real war movie.
~"The closest I can think of... is to

"Seeing that picture, going to it,
you might gel shot. That's about the

may know they can't achieve perfection, but they feel a passion to try.
War, after all, is the pinnacle of so
many things: bravery, stupidity, violence,
camaraderie, injustice,
courage, cowardice. It is utterly glorious and utterly insane.

the recommendation: eat a diet low in

approximately 63 pound.&lt; of fat Eating a lot of fal may lead to poor
health, however fat acontributes positively to our food. Fat adds flavor

and a smooth texture to foods. It also
gives you that pleasant full feeling
that low fat or fat free food.&lt; just can't

How to decide between wood
shakes and shingles for a new roof
By POPULAR MECHANICS
For AP Special Features
The crowning glory of an oldhouse restoration is a new roof of

wood shakes or shingle. The standard rooting .matenal of colon1al

times continues to be used today m
many parts of the country. Originally.the type of wood used was dependent on what was available locally.
For example. red cedar was plentiful
on the West Coa.&lt;t, swamp cedar m
the Middle-Atlantic states. wh1te
cedar.in New England and cypress in
the South. Today you'll still find a
variety of woods used to make wood
shakes or shmgles, such as red and
white cedar, while pine and oak.
If it's installed and mamtamed
property. you can expect a wood roof
to last a long time. Although 25-30
years is a good minimum, we've seen
some 7(}-year-old roofs that are still
functioning properly. Understanding
what's involved for installation and
maintenance w1ll go a long way in
helping you decide if a wood shake
or shmgle roof is. the right choice for
you .

One of the secrets of a successful
wood-roof applicauon is adequate
ventilation. Because of rhe nature of
the product. air must be able to circulate underneath it to prevent moisture buildup and its resultant rot. Historically, an open-sheathed roofing
system was used. which accomplished thiS objectrve very nicely.
Today, this IS still the prefened
method of installation. But keep in
, mind that the rough. uneven nature of
shakes demands some extr~ protection . When installing shakes, !he
open sheathing should be interwoven
with the felt paper so the tips of the
shakes are up underneath the felt.
This provide' eur~ protection from
dnvmg wmds and min. but still
allows adequate ventilation at all
times. The felt paper interweave is
usually not necessary with shingles,
Since they lie flat. If an open-sheathed
roof isn 't a practical option for you.
the shakes or shingles should be
anachcd to honzontal furring strips
that allow an inch or so of air to move
between !he b&lt;mom of the shingles or
shakes and the plywood or solid

sheathing.
Another important factor is allowing for the natural expansion of
wood. If space is nor left for this and
the shingles or shakes are buned up
close together, you're likely to get a
failure, or crack, in !he nail line. Usually, leaving one-quarter-inch of
space or keyway between each shingle. and about one-half-inch of space
between shakes is enough to allow
for any movement.
When actually fastening shingles.
the shingle, ideally, should hang on
it\ nail~. The nailheads should be driven so they are just Oush wi!h the
shingle surface. Don't dimple it or
sink the nails in, as you run the risk
of punching a hole which will allow
the shingle to lift right off the roof.
Two nails should be u~ per piece.
placed about three-quarter-inches
from each side, I inch above where
the next bun line for the next row will
be. Covering the na.lheads like this
helps prevent them from rusting and
staining the roof surface. The seams
should line up for three courses, preventing water from wearing a channel or path in the roof.

Copper futures surge on Japanese optimism
By CLIFF EDWARDS
AP Business Writer
Copper futures rose sharply Friday

Exchange on optimiSm the expected
selection of a new Japanese leader
will spur a quicker econom1c recovery in Asia. boostmg con ... rruction
demand .
On other markers. gram and soybeans continued their shde. Coffee
futures also retreated .
Copper futures JUmped to the.r
highest level in II weeks after
Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic
Party elected Foreign Minister Keizo

Obuchr lis president - a move
almostcertam to assure he will be the
next prime minister.
During hrs campaign. Obuchi
promised to accelerate economic
recovery plans begun under hiS predecessor. Ryutaro Hashimoto. who
resigned after the party had an embarrassing showing m the July 12 electiOns for the upper house of Parliament.
The Liberal party has been widely blamed for mismanagrng the economy. but futures inv~~tors were gambling Obuchi now will be forced to
act quickly to fend off further oppo-

S1t1on gams and keep the leadership.
Japan is one of the world's largest
copper consuming nations. but its fortunes also are seen as the linchpin for
reviving monbund economie~ in
Southeast Asia. That region untilla.~t
year had been responsible for a
growing amount of copp&lt;r consumption, as the good times spurred
a building boom. Copper is used in
plumbmg. wrring and other electronics.
Copper for Seplember delivery
rose 2.90 cents, or 3.7 percent, to
80.70 cents a pound.

"Even after mea.~uring the medical costs to the state and communities against the $23 billion benefit, the
net annual gain from seniors is $307
million," says Cindy LaRue, director
of the Office of Senior Living.
And that economic wallop makes
it worthwhile for Arizona to compere
wi!h !he likes of Florida. the Carolinas and California for the lucrative
retiree market, LaRue says.
Arizona ranks a.&lt; the fa.~test-aging
state with a 20 percent increase in the
retirement population since 1990.
By 2020. the number of Arizonans 65
and older is expected 10 nearly double to 1.3 million.
Some wony Arizona is selling
ito;elf up for trouble down !he line by
recruiting seniors, fearing they could
overburden the health system.
"In 10 yem obviously the issue
is going to be grannJ'.':3fe," said state
Sen. Pete Rios, who unsuccessfully
opposed doubling the Office of
Senior Living's budget to $400.000.
LaRue emphasized that recruiting
efforts center on younger and active
retirees with annual incomes of at
least $40,000 and net worth of
$325,000 who are more likely to be
able to pay their way when health
problems anse.
Also, she said, sludies show !hat
many retirees move back lo their
home states to be closer to family
when they bj:come.,,very old or frail ,
rhus ea.sing the financial burden on
Arizona.
LaRue's office last year sent out
13,000 ~it~ to potential new residents.
This year 75,000 of the new relocation guides were printed and distrib-

uted to 92 chamber of commerce
offices statewide.
Advertising revenue and private
funding paid for all but S12,000 of
!he approximately $150,000 production costs, LaRue said ..
While the magazine paints a Oattering portrait of Arizona. it omits
some of its drJwbacks. Case in point:
the brown cloud of unhealthful air
!hat often envelops Phoenix and the
city's maddening traffic.
And the editors could be accused

of misrepresenting summers in lhe
lower desert, describing them as
"tolerable" because of the "tlry
heat." In truth. monsoon rains and
triple-digit temperatures can produce
wilting humidity nvaling that of
Atlanta or St. Louis.
The guide rightly points out that
desert denizens survive the searing
summers to hang Christmas decorations in 70-degree weather !hanks to

USDA: Corn plantings
are largest in 13 years
WASHINGTON (AP) - The
nation's com crop is projected at a
13-year high of 1!0.8 million acres.
while spring wheat plantings are
down 21 percent from la.st year to
reach the lowest acreage since 1985.
the Agriculture Department reported
today.
In its annual estimate of the crops
planted !his spring. the department
said ideal weather through much of
the Com Belt enabled fanners to linish com planting a week ahead of
normal. This year's crop is I percent
larger than la.~t year's.
Spring wheat is estimated at only
15.2 million acres, compared to more
than 19.3 million acres the year
before. Wheat prices earlier this
month reached a seven-year low and
many farmers have turned to other
crops offering better profit potentral.
Plantings of durum wheat are up
a forecasted 13 percent compared to

last year. Most durum, which is used
to make pasta, 1s grown m North
Dakota.
Total wheat planted acres for 1998
amounts lo 65.8 million acres, again
the lowest si nee 1985.
This year's soybean cmp will
cover an estimated 72.7 million acres,
which would be 3 percent above the
1997 crop. If realized, USDA ollicials say that wnuld amount to the
most soybeans ever planted and harvested. breaking a record set m 1979.
Compared to corn and wheat,
soybeans have.maintained relatively
higher prices. although they are lower than the past few years.
Cotton plantings are projected at
12.9 million acres, down 6 percent
from 1997. The decrease was driven
by fewer plantings of upland cotton,
which is down 7 percent from la.st
year at 12.6 million acres.

Not all farmers face low-prices crisis
By CURT ANDERSON
AP Farm Writer

: WASHINGTON -With cries of
~Farm Crisis'" reverberating from
the halls of Congress to the Oval
i:&gt;ffice. it's easy to overlook that barring a weather or pest catastrophe
:- many farmers figure to make out
OK this year.
: In Washington. Democrats and
Jtepublicans are hustling to bring various forms of election-year aid to

fanne~

in the Upper Midwest. where
recurrent bouts of wet weather and
diseao;e have wreaked havoc, and for
those in Texas and elsewhere broiling
in the summer heat wave.
There is no dispute that these
farmers are confronted with dire
problems. Because prices are down
for major crops like com. ~oybeans
and wheat due to redU&lt;.-ed exports and
abundant world supplies, farmers
with reduced yields are facing an

even more severe hit.
"You have some places whete you
have no price and no crop." Prcsidtnt
Clinton told farm broadcasters last
week.
But unless weather patterns
change markedly over the next few
w~eks. the Com Belt and many other highly productive U.S. farm area'
are on track to produce big com and
soybean crops this year, in some cases record levels. Higher yields per

acre mean more crop to sell, which
softens the blow of lower prices.
In addition, many farmers arc
taking advantage of contracts and
options offered through futures markets that locked in higher prices long
before they were to harvest their
crops.
" While these prices arc les. than
those experienced during the past two
years, they an:, for the most part. substantially higher than the average

prices received by producers during
the last decade." said Dean Kleckner. prcsidtnt of the American Farm
Bureau Fcdtration.
Indeed. Agriculture Department
statistics show the average price
farmers arc getting this year for a
bushel of wheat is between $2.70 and
$3.1 0. Between 1990 and 1994. the
average price was $3.11. Com prices
arc similar.

wean grain. rice and cotton producers off Depression-era subsidies that
madt up the difference when crop
prices dropped.
Because prices were so unusually
high in 1996, the transition payments
have amounted to $7.5 billion more
than farmers would have gotten under
the old subsidie.s. according to USDA

Exchange Commission, and computerized it all in a standard format .

The SEC definition also included
the limitation that a penny stock wa.s
one not traded on a national securities exchange or quoted in the Na.~­
daq list maintained by the National
Association of Securities Dealers.
Perhaps unintentionally, that definition suggested that an exchange
listing was a sign of qualicy and that
not being listed was indicative of
inferiority. It helped worstit the con·
notation of penny stock.

SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich.
(AP) - Hunters toting guns are a
common sight in Rob Arbic 's rural
neighborhood. Even so, Arbic was
immediately suspicious of the man
with a shotgun striding across his
brother·s cow pasture.
"He was walking very intently,
very focused, eyes on ground in front
of him, like a man who had a destination and didn't want to get sidetracked," Arbic said Sunday.
Arbic's instincts proved sound.
The man was missing newspaper carrier Nathan Hanna. wanted on a murder charge since the circulation manager of The Evening News was shot
to death Thursday morning.
Alerted by Arbic's 911 call, asheriff's deputy and two state police
troopers confronted Hanna on a twolane highway about I In miles south
of town.
Sheriff Jeff Moran said Hanna
ignored their orders to drop his gun,
then fired a shot that missed the officers. They returned ftrc. hilling him
in the chest, stomach and leg.
Hanna. who grew up in Knox
County, Ohio, was in stable but
guarded condition at War Memorial
Hospital, and was charged with murder and using a firearm to commit a
felony.
Sault Ste. Marie. a town of about
18.000, is on Michigan's ea•tem
Upper Peninsula. about 350 miles
north of Detroit on the Canadian border.
Arbic, a former corrections officer
who lives on the country highway
that runs parallel to nearby Interstate
75, was standing on his father's
porch next door when he spotted the
stranger in the pasture across the
road.
The man crossed the highway and
turned toward town, passing Arbic's
house and coming within a few feet
of his I0-year-old daughter. who was
mowing the front lawn. Arbic's wife
was sunbathing in the back yard.
He was a big fellow, had a beard
and a shotgun. Didn'tthat sound like
the guy the police were looking for?
Arbic grabbed a pair of binoculars. crept through the yard, hiding
behind trees and bushes to keep
watch on Hanna, and called police.
Officers had searched Chippewa
County for Hanna since Thursday
morning, when he allegedly walked
into The Evening News building and
killed circulation manager Anthony
Gillespie with two shotgun blasts.
The gunman apparently fled
immediately, although police cordohed off a two-block area for ftve
hours, fearing he might be inside.
About 15 sta!Teis hid in the darkroom
and elsewhere until officers entered
the building.
Police said the shooting was not
work-related. but they had not disclosed a possible motive.
Although law enforcement agencies as far away as Hanna's native
Ohio were on alert. he apparently
never left the Sault Ste. Marie area.
The Evening News. which has not
published since the shooting. plans to
resume publication Tuesday, editor
Ken Fazzari said.

YOUNGSTOWN (AP)- A convicted killer who broke out of Ohio's
only private prison was captured
about five miles away today, leaving
just one of the six inmates who
escaped Saturday still on the loose.
Vincent Smith was found hiding
behind bushes near an apartment
building. said police Sgt. Robert
Altier in suburban Hubbard.
Police got a tip from someone in
the apartment building. Altier said.
Smith did not resist when officers
sunounded him, Altier said.
Ronald Holmes. who was convicted of armed robbery, was still at
large and believed to be in the
Youngstown area. U.S. Marshal
David troutman said. Hubbard
Police Chief Ray Moffitt said he didn't think Holmes had been with
Smith.
The manhunt by federal and local
authorities was complicated by the
tangled nature of the prison's surrounding area. which includes vacant
lots, abandoned factories and overgrown woods.
Three Northeast Ohio Correctional Center inmates were recaptured
Sunday morning less than a mile
away. Franklin Reyes and David
Sawyer were arrested without resislance. police said. Charles Johnson
tried to run but was quickly caught.
Jamal Heath wa' recaptured Saturday about 3 iniles away while try ing to make a call near a gasoline sta-

Lawmakers pay tribute to slain police officers
WASHINGTON (AP)- As they
returned to the Capitol today. federal lawmakers were taking a break
from writing the country's laws to
salute the two police officers shot to
death in the national landmark. "I
apologize to the nation." said the
grief-stricken father of the man
charged with the rampage.
House members and senators
planned to take up a resolution honoring Capiiol Police officers Jacob
Chestnut, 58, and John Gibson, 42,
shot to death Friday by a man who
ran through a metal detector and
started firing a handgun.
As the flags over the Capitol
remained at half-staff, congressional
staff and employees, returned the Hill
for the ftrst time since the shootings.

Gibron will be buried Thursday
afler a funeral in suburban Lake
Ridge, Va. A day later. Chestnut. a
20-year Air Force veteran. will be
buried in Arlington National Cemetery.
A Capitol visitor. Angela Dickerson, 24, of Chantilly. Va., suffered
wounds to the face and arm from
stray gunshots and wa.' discharged
from a hospilal following an
overnight stay.
Clinton spoke by telephone Sunday to Chestnut's widow, but was not
'able to make contact with Gibson's
widow, said officials traveling with
the president in New Mexico. They
said he also spoke with Mrs. Dicker-

son.
The ·shootings did not scare
tourists away from the Capitol, which
remained open all weekend to visitor.;
·as usual. A large pile of flowers sat

on the building 's steps tn memory of
the two slain officers.
The deaths of Chestnut and Gibson have given new impetus to effons
to improve security on the Capitol
grounds. which have been open to the
public even as access to other federal buildings g~w tighter in recent
years.

One plan given new impetus is for
construction of a visitors' center, possibly underground, to serve a.• a way
station for tourists as well as provide
for greater security because visitors
would be screened for weapons
before lhcy entered the Capitol building.
Even as they talked about incrca•ing security, however. lawmakers
said they were returning to the Capitol with no apprehension.
"I feel more secure," House
Majority Leader Dick Armcy, RTexas, said Sunday on CNN's "Late
Edition."
