The primary sources of crack cocaine for lhe local markel are Chillicolhe and Columbus, Lentes said, and those pipelines leading south into Meigs, Gallia, Alhens and the surrounding counties are a target of the task force . And, Lentes said, just as enforcement agents know where it's coming from, they are able to pinpoint, almost to an ef acl sile, where il's going. The appeal of crack lo !he recreational drug user is multi-faceled. II is compacl - an "eight ball," or eightdollar purchase, is usually the size of a mothball. A small amount of the drug can be purchased for a small amount of money. Most appealing to the user: the high achieved from crack cocaine, !hough very fleeting, is the most intense "up" high available. It is almosl immediately addicting, so il keeps the cuslomer coming back for more al o·nce. Earlier lhis summer, four people were arrested and charged wilh lrafficking in c rack, and I.entes said that further arresls are inevitable. Before lhe arrival of crack inlo Soulheaslem Ohio, marijuana posed the only serious drug problem in Meigs County, and illegal activity resulting from marijuana was limited to lhe actual cultivation and sale of it. The usc of marijuana, Lenles said, rarely results in violenl behavior. "Mosl of the crimes !hat my office investigates, such as assaults, theft cases, domestic violence, have a direct link 10 the abuse of alcohol." Lentcs said. "I've never seen a case of violent behavior which was a result of marijuana: use.' Crack is a different story. There are IWo basic differences in the way crack affects the communily, Lentes said. Fhst, those involved in trafficking in crack cocaine are not local, and !hey are violent. ' These are hard-core criminals," I.entcs said . "They will hurt others. The dealers threalen their cuslomers, the customers lhreaten !heir dealers, and !hey have both Ihreatened local law enforcement officers." Those who use and deal in crack are also more apt to commit other violent crimes. Like the cocaine from which it derives, crack is a slimulant, and when abused, oflen leads to erralic behavior. Those who use crack always deal wilh an unknown quantity: while il is often cut wilh soda, it has also been cui wilh slrychnine and olher dangerous substances, and the purity of the cocaine is always in doubt. "When you deal wilh marijuana, vegetalion is vegetation," I.entes said, "but if physiological conditions are just righl, the firs! time using crack can kill."

Closed facility According to Mildred Jacobs, who has served as acling adminis- ii====== tralor of the home for the past several months, three residents -- Jwo women and a man who remained at the ho~ _were relocated 10 a privately-owned personal care home in Pomeroy on Friday.

KOW 'BOUT .,-ou? lri \ Evelyn Wallace tineL Homeowners burned by FHA 'inspections_ Letters to the editor a banks are par· tial to appraisers willing to "play ball ," which some· times means innating the price of a home and neg lecting to mention major propeny Moller & naws or 'needed Ande111on repairs. Expens cite lender-se lect as a major reason why federally insured mortgages increased by 30 percent last year. The appraisal process 1s proh· lematic for another reason: Many home buyers are misled to belie ve the appraisal is a thorough mspection .. the equivalent of the govern · mcnt's stamp of approval. But inspections have never been mandatory for homes insured with federal funds , even though taxpay· ers get stuck with the bill when a home forecloses . Dorothy Bob, a first-time home huycr, thought the appraisal of her Buffalo, N.Y.. FHA home was actually an inspection. Her realtor told her the "inspection" revealed only a small problem with the storm windows. But within months, Boh 's dream house staned falling apart The fur· nacc conked out, the kitchen burners wouldn 't work, the septic system broke down three times. the roof leaked , electrical outlets quit working, and wires in her alllc caught fire. None of these problems were pointed out before she bought her home . Bob says she knew that the home wasn't new, .and she was expecting a problem or two. But she wasn't looking for a fixerupper. "FHA should have had an inspector, or told us the appraisal wasn'tthe same thing as an inspcc· lion ," Bob told us. Carl Edwards of Indianapolis has a similar story . He bought a home with an FHA loan , believ ing the house had met stringent FHA guidelines. "The appraisal was presented to me as an inspection." he told our associate Kathryn Wallace. Shortly after Edwards moved in ., major repairs were required on the central air conditioning, furnace . hot water heater and septic sys tem . Edwards also had to replace the roo f. After month s of cx pcns ivc rcpa1rs plus a mortgage payment. Edwards defaulted on his loan and the government paid off the lender. Edwards has si nce lobbied Con· grcss and the Department of Hous· ing and Urhan Development (which oversees the FHA) to make inspec· tions mandatory -~ something he has been told will never happen . "You would think FHA would he more concerned with how and where FHA's money goes, and would want to inspect the proper· tics before investing in them ." Edwards said. · Phil Prehn, director of a Syracuse homeowners' group, has seen hundreds of cases of slick realtors taking ;~dvantagc of unsophisticatc¢ first-time home buyers, while' tliC' agency turns a blind eye. " If HUD really wanted to decrease the number of forcclilsures. they would fully .mspc~ 'l homes and have that inspection available to potential homeowners," Prehn told us. "A key compd; ncnt to any kind of rcfonm at HUD is to work harder to maku sure (FHA) homes arc livable in the firsi place ." A HUD spokesman conveniently notes that the reason inspections aren't required is that the agency docsn ., want to burden prospccli"<! homeowners with extra costs. But the spokesman added thM HUD has always encouraged FHA customers to invest in a thorough inspection.

Human cloning makes James Wilson queasy, hut he believes it should be penmincd under cenain controlled circumstances. · They disagree on the morality of cloning, but in their book, " The Ethics of Human Cloning," they ijgrcc on this: Human cloning is an issue that society needs to take very, v~ry seriouslY: . "We have an opponunity to decide whether we're going to be victims of a runaway technology or get back in the driver's sent," said Kass, an author and professor of social thought at the University of Chicago. . _ The existence of Dolly the sheep, tltc world's lirst creature born after bCing cloned from an adult cell, was revealed in the spring of 1997 ; last month. sc ientists at the University of Hawaii announced they had cloned dozens or mice from adult cells confirmation Dolly was not a nuke. Dolly caused a lirestorm of contrqversy that lingers to this day, and ia1scd questions as yet unanswered ...:. When will the first human be cloned? Should humans even be cloned? With the creation of the liner of cloned mice, "scientific ndvances are happening faster than we imagined. lthink we have to expect that human cloning may be closer than we thought," said Wilson, professor of management and public policy emer· itus at the University of California, ~os Angeles. · The pair square off in their new bQok. trading essays on the implica· lions of an event with "stakes (that) very high indeed," as Kass writes.

What Kass thinks: The public's gut reaction to Dolly .,... which, he says, was in a nutshell "lck 1" - is a cry from the hcan against the idel that children can be manufactured rather than procreated. Today's alleged sophistication about societal changes, he writes, endangers our essential humanity and fragments necessary family and societal structures. "Shallow are the souls that have forgonen how to shudder," he writes. Human cloning und~r no circumstances should be allowed to occur, he says. "We live in a culture where we're not prepared to make moral judgments on anything," he said in an interview. So the outcry against cloning "came as a surprise to me, given our lax moral climate. I was trying to give voice to that repugnance." What Wilson thinks: He "instinctively rccoil(s) " from the idea of human cloning. But there is no stopping it; if the United Stales bans itas some in Congress arc ancmpting to do- some other country will give cloning a try. Human cloning; however, should be pennincd only for married heterosexual couples willing to carry and raise the child themselves. He doubts many people will avail themselves of the option to clone, even infertile couples, believing that people still like the idea of mystery and surprise when it comes to mak: ing babies. You may know lhe baby 's sex ahead of time. but you don't know which parent it will resemble, he said. are Serving the area over 18 years 24 Hour Service Oxygen Service Propane explosion sends six to hospital BATAVIA (AP) - Investigators said it could take days to fig~, c out what caused a series of propane plant explosions which hospitalized six men and forced some workers to flee with singed hair and burned clothes. The explosions on Friday melted support beams and peeled away the aluminum walls of the Auxier Gas Co.'s main building. A column of smoke rose about 50 to I00 feet overhead. The company distributes propane to homes and businesses. The plant, about 20 miles east of Cincinnati, stores an average of 10,000 gallons of propane, authorities said. Another blast in 1978 at Auxier killed owner William Auxier and injured four others. A hose that was transferring 9.500 gallons of propane ruptured, sparking a fire and exploSIOn. Police Chief Bill Siefcn said the latest explosions may have been triggered in a maintenance building where workers paint refurbished propane tanks and work on delivery trucks. A worker may have opened a tank that was supposed to be empty but wasn 't, causing gas to explode when it hit the flame of a nearby water heater, Siefen told The Cincinnati Enquirer in a story today. Six men, ranging in age from 17 to 52, were taken to University Hospital in Cincinnati. Their conditions ranged from fait to critical, but all were expected to live, said hospital spokeswoman Yolanda James. The 17-year-old was to be transferred to Shriners' Bum Institute in Cincinnati, she said. More than a dozen businesses were evacuated, as firefighters worked to keep the blaze from spreading to several large propane tanks near the main building. The evacuation was lifted late Friday evening, but crews planned to remain on the scene all night to monitor the situation. "We were concerned that the whole area could be devastated if the fire spread to those tanks," said Miami Township Fire Chief Jim Whit· wonh. Two other buildings received some damage, but the fire was under control within two hours of the explosions, he said.

Man who lost 3 brothers to WWII still mourns what might have been By MIKE HARDEN The Columbus Dispatch CHILLICOTHE . (AP) Clarence Dennewitz rested a hand upon the pink granite headstone crowning the graves of his three brNhers in Chillicothe's Greenlawn Cc:uctery. A lift in the morning breeze ruf· fled a trio of small American nags ai'TIIIIged around the grave sites of John Paul, William and James Harold Dennewitz and the engraved legend, "The three sons of Joseph and May Dennewitz." Clarence, now 67, was barely a teen-ager when his brothers were killed in World War II. Yes, he said, he had seen a few shon TV clips of the new movie "Saving Private Ryan ." No, he didn't intend to make a special effort to see the film , which chronicles U.S. troops who try to save a soldier who's lost hi s three brothers during WWII. "Every time I go through all of that. it just brings so much back, " he said. "I kind of try to shun a lot of it. " He was working on his family's Ross County farm in the summer of 1944, when he learned that his eldest brother, John Paul, had died as a result of an artillery barrage ncar St. Lo, France. "During those days, they sent the telegram out with a taxi driver.'' he recalled. "' John Paul had seen action in north Africa and Italy. helped train U.S. troops in England for D-Day. and made it through the Nonmandy land· ing. Then he was killed on July 18. He was buried at an American cemetery in France. James Harold was the next to die, killed by machine-gun fire in Germany only three weeks b.:fore the end of fighting in Europe. He was buried in Holland. Claren<·e's mother, May, having given two sons to the cause. decided after learning of James Harold's death to appeal to the Wor Depanmentto have son William - serving with the Navy in the soul~ Pacificremoved from combat. What she could not have known was that the War Depanmenl already had received word that William Dennewitz had been killed. "He was close 10 Okinawa on minesweeper duty," Clarence said. "His ship was hit by a suicide plane, a Japanese kamikaze, the day after the one brother was killed in Ger· many.'' William was buried on an island in the S()ulh Pacific. Uneasy at the prospccl of her dead sons' graves roared across the Dcnncwitt Brothers being so far from home . May Dennewitz requested that the hodies be disinterred and hrought hack to Ohio. "They hroughtthcm on the N&W railroad to the depot here in Chilli· cothc." Clarence remembered . It was March 1949. "They had held them at a receiving depot in Norfolk until they got all three together." The bodies were transponcd to the family fanm. three llag-draped caskets nanking the walls of the parlor. a framed photo of each son atop each flag . May and her husband . Joseph. could have had a funeral home handie the visitation. hut it was yet the era in which many families preferred to take care or their own. "There were a lot of visitors.'' Clarence said. "A lot of friends called." The funeral was set for the first day of spring. ' "They showed those boys the same honor they would show a pres· ident. They took them down the streets on caissons. "Governor Lauschc came. He wept at the funcr· al ." Two years after her sons were brought home, May Denncwitz, 55, was bid 10 rest next to their graves. "That loss docs something to a per· son," Clarence mused of his mother's attempts to deal with her grief. ' in 1955, when the stale of Ohio decided to construct a new bridge across Paint Creek, an appeal was made that the bridge be dedicated to the Dcnncwitz hrothers. Plaques were erected at each end of the bridge . "We used to !ish down here," Memorial Bridge. many of the dri· vcrs prohahly clueless as to the dis· tinction of the span they traversed. "We'd catch catlish. cal]l. suckers. My hrothcr Bill made his ow n hoal. a 16-fool rowboat. We ran a trot line across the creek." Though his brothers have been gone more than half a century. the part of Clarence that mourns what might have been is just beneath the surface. "These guys have done so much. " he said. "I appreciate ... ·· he tried to continue. wincing. then turning his face away. "I appreciate when some· one remembers what they did." He closed a small . worn scrap· hook of snapshots and chppings. then dimbcd into his pickup truck. He hadn't wanted to pose for a picture ncar his brothers' headstone .

But Baker's plan to open a 2,400sow hog breeding operation on 3,000 acres of reclaimed strip mine land in Noble County has emerged as a flash point in a national baule over property rights, the environment and changes in the livestock industry. Baker, a sixth-generation farmer from Darke County sees his move to this area 70 miles east of Columbus as an oppor1unity to escape rising land prices in western Ohio and bring hi s two sons back to the farm. Ms. Raeder. who has her own small farm , sees potential environ, mel\tal disaster. especially in Baker's plan to irrigate ·surroundong fields with water drawn off 4 acres of waste holding ponds. " The smell is going to be horrendous," she predicted. "And there's no way you're going to spread anything on those fields that won't wind up in these back yards." she added. Ms . Raeder and a group called Concerned Citizens Comminee of Southeast Ohio worry that because of strip mining in their 'ection of the Appalachian foothills, the ground is too porous to keep wastewater from reaching nearby streams. The group worries a breach in the hanks of the clay-lined ponds would Oood the area with millions of gallons of animal trol pests and set new rules for farm workers who spread manure on fields. With the legislative session winding down, there is virtually no chance of the bill passing this year. Baker doubts new regulations are needed, and would like to see a study of what their impact would be. He also complains that he's being lumped with Buckeye Egg Farm, a frequent target of complaints about working conditions, odors, ny infestions and environmental problems. Buckeye Egg, with plans for nearly 30 million chickens in four central and northwestern Ohio counties, dwarfs Baker's proposed farm. Though Baker's operation would more than double the number of hogs in Noble County, it wouldn't rank in the state's top 15 hog farms in number of swine. There are 110 farms in Ohio with more than 2,000 hogs, according to the Ohio Agricultural Statistics Serv•ce. Even the Sierra Club doesn't believe there's much chance of an environmental catastroph<. from a farm the size of Baker's. "They've got a point on the odor," said Ken Midkiff, director of the Missouri chapter of the Sierra Club and one of the national environmental group's experts on conlined livestock agriculture. "But at that size, there 's not as much impact on water quality ... or potential for accidents." Jack Shaner of the Ohio Environmental Council, another group that wants to crack down on megafarms, waste. says he sympathizes with Baker. Members hang "No Megafann" "A lot of people arc gelling unfairsigns, pink wooden pigs with slash- ly tarred by this issue," Shaner es through them, outside their homes . acknowledged. "Unfor1unatcly. the government has allowed the bad Ba~er maintains his opponents' fears are unfounded and based on operators to go on for too long ." Shaner likened the debate over unfaor comparisons with pollution prol>lems at much larger hog farms in megafarms to a war. and said someNor1h Carolina. Missouri and other times innocent people get hur1. Other environmentalists are less states. Ohio is not among states such as willing to let operations the size of North Carolina and Kentucky that llaker's off the hook. "Twenty-four hundred sows is not have placed moratoriums on construction of megafanns. Environ- the biggest of the big," acknowlmental groups have used the Noble edged John Crabtree, a livestock County situation as an illustration of market specialist for the Center for why Gov. George Yoinovich should Rural Affairs in Walthill, Neb. "But let 's not kid ourselves, it's order such a halt until the Legislature not a small farm. toughens regulations for handling "You're still trying to take a bioanimal waste . logical system - such as raising Ohio is just beginning the process, with a hill pending in the Legislature hogs - and turning it into an industhat would require large fanns to con- trial operation," Crabtree said. "lbere is very little way to run an operation like that that is not going to have environmental problems." Tom Sporleder, an agricultural economist at Ohio Slate University, doesn't believe there is a direct correlation between size and pollution. "If you're after some ironclad guarantee ... it's impossible to do that," Sporleder said. " But it's uue with everything that if it's not done right, there can be problems." The problem with large livestock operations, he added, is that when there is a problem, "it's almost a catastrophic event." Still, small fanns are just as capable of causing pollution, and there are more of them. Baker's fann would be largerthan-average in Ohio, but small by national standards and just about right for competitive reasons, Sporleder added. When it's up and running, Baker's operation will truck I,000 piglets to a nursery in western Ohio every week. "There is a trend toward fewer, .but larger hog fanns," he observed. " You have to have a lower cost of production in order to survive." Baker agreed. "It's not our intent to be the next Murphy or Prestage," he said, referring to two of the major players in the · pork industry. "It's our intent to make a living . for our families ." Baker said he and his wife could continue to make a living off their 150-sow farm in Arcanum, but their two sons are now finishing up college and want to come back to the family business. "I'm 47 years old, I don 't want to take on 2,400 sows at my age," he said. " But I' ve got these boys and I'm going to do what it takes ." And that means moving halfway across the state because land prices in Darke County are pushing $3,000 an acre as more people from Dayton , Springfield and their suburbs move to the country. Baker said the stress of dealing with the protesters and of overseeing a nearly $5 million expansion has driven him back to smoking. Reaehing for another Salem Ultra Light, Baker muses about what would have happened if he had kept his plans under wraps. His projc•t is small enough to escape oversight by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency. But In wake of twin bombings, Clinton vows U.S. diplomats, troops will stay DISCUSSING CONCERNS- Bob Yost telked about his concerns over the building of a new hog fenn near Cumberland, Ohio. Yost was mHtlng with a group called the Concerned Cit· izens COmmittee,of Southeast Ohio. The group Baker needo'd some technical help, so he enrolled in the Ohio Depar1ment of Natural Resources' voluntary manure management program . "If I had to do it over, I'd be a whole lot sneakier,• he said. " But we don't believe in doing things that way. " Baker said he's thought about chucking the whole idea numerous times, but thinking about his sons always stiffens his resolve. So does every protest lcner and reference to Nancy Raeder and the other Noble County residents he refers to as '\:om:crncd tcrrorisls." Ms. Raeder is equally adamarn about keeping him out. "We ' ll chain ourselves to the bulldozers if we have to.·· she thrcalened . "But I don't think you should have to go through this to protect you homes." What homes'' counters Baker. Standing atop the grass-covered hillside that workers in about a month will begin transforming into the Muskic Genetics breeding operation. Baker looks out over miles of unpopulated land . "There aren't any people." he America's itchiest city? Elkins takes the prize By VICKI SMITH Associated Press Writer ELKINS. W.Va. - LouisAndriko says itching is like yawning: It 's contagious . "There's a deli nile psychosomatic thing . You see one person itching and everyone else is scratching all day." said Andriko. a phannaci st at The Medicine Shoppe. Maybe that explains why Elkins has been named the itchiest city in America . For July. the town topped the Lanacanc Summer Itch Index . a lost compiled by the White Plains. N.Y.. make rs of the popular anti-itch cream. Cities arc rated using climate , onscct and plant data collected from 400 weather stations around the country. Dr. Laurence Kalkstein at the Uni vers ity of Delaware's Center for Climati<: Research .evaluates such things as sunburn potential, poison ivy growth, rainfall and mosquito populations. The folks at Lanacane then rank the cities by dctcnnining which were of " high concern" for itching on the days the index appears. Elkins was in the "high concern" <:atcgory for 95 percent of the July index days. Lanacanc publicist Katrina Shindledecker said Wednesday. Rounding out the top 10 itchy dtics for July were: Knoxville, Tenn.; Moami; Nashville, Tenn.; Cincinnati; Dayton, Ohio; Lexington, Ky. ; Louisville, Ky.; Evansville. Ind.; and Charleston, W. Ya. The summer index, which runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day, os in its second year. Many Elkins residents were taken aback by the designation. Some laughed and shook their heads, at a loss .for 'words. Others, like bank teller Sharon Judy, were surprised by the news. "I haven't had any problems. I have more problems in the winter, when it's dry, " she said. Margaret Stalnaker, owner of Ideal Material fabric shop, hasn 't noticed her customers scratching any more than usual. "It shocks me," she said . " It just seems so funny. But anything that can get us on the map is good, I guess." But Gaylia Borror of Rochester. Minn., has noticed a difference this summer. The Elkins native ha' been visiting relatives for several weeks with her 5·ycar-old daughter, Kaitlyn Walsh. "We've been walking a lot . so we're outside a lot , and particularly when it 's humid , the hugs are really bad. I guess I hadn'tthought about it. but it is worse. even in the daytime ." she said. .DON 'A'E MO,ORS, 'INC. is concerned that because of strip mining in their section of the Appalachian foothills, the ground is too porous to keep hog farm wastewater from reaching nearby streams.

The concern among Ms. Raeder and the others is that he won't he alone for long. They note that Amcr· ican Electric Power has 115.000 acres of land in southeast Ohio. and state and economic development offi cials have for years been looking for ways to create jobs in counties that typically have unemploymcnl rates two to three times the state average . "This is just the start," Ms. Raeder warned. "It's always just one lit· tie guy coming in . Then there 's two. then three." ~ By GEORGE GEDDA Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON- In the face of the first simultaneous auacks against American targets in different countries, President Clinton vowed Saturday not to pull back a single diplomat or contingent of U.S. troops overseas. The death toll of Americans has climbed to II. he said. "To tum our backs on those taking risks for peace, to weaken our opposition to terrorism - that would give terrorism a \lictory it must not and will not have," the president said in a live radio broadcast from the Oval Office. Friday's bombing attacks at the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were most likely " the lirst time we have had two such coordinated explosions," said Thomas Pickering. the State Department's third-ranking official. The explosions killed at least 110 people, and the number injured topped 2,200. The II Americans were killed in Kenya, along with live Kenyan employees at the embassy. The State Dcpar1ment said two U.S. embassy officers were missing and presumed dead. Twelve American citizens were hospitalized - I 0 embassy officers and two private citizens. Of the 12, I0 were to be flown to Ramstein Air Base in Germany. Five injured Kenyan employees at the embassy were scheduled to join them on the trip.

Tell me what size bomb and I'll tell you what the proof is. " We have a set of standards which we believe deals with most of the difficulties. if not all of the diflicuhies, that we expect to face , and it is clear that these two buildings did not meet our current standards." he said.

Lawrence Snowden, a retired Marine who panicipatcd in a U.S. security review after a series of 1983 bombings in Beirut killed nearly 300 Americans. After the review, U.S. embassies and military installations around the world were ordered to set up barriers and tighten security systems to prevent easy access by unauthorized people- Americans and foreigners .

But outside well-pro.tected walls. security is left to local authorities, an,lterrorists can get close enough to s•rike. That is what happened just outside U.S. embassies in the capitals ofTanzania and Kenya. P.J. Crowley, the White House national security spokesman , said the embassies were not on high aler1 because there had been no warnings of a possible terrorist act. although U.S. officials frequently conduct reviews to detenninc security needs. "Terrorism is a fact of life in the world today, " Crowley said.

First new arthritis drug in a decade wins recommendation BETHESDA, Md. (AP) -With a warning for premenopausal women, government adVIsers are recommending approval of tbe first new drug in more than a decade for rheumatoid arthritis . Arava, made by Hoechst Marion Roussel, does not cure the crippling ailment. But 11 appears to work as well as the gold-standard treatment, a cancer drug, at treating swollen, painful joints. It also appears to slow the progressoon of the diSease. "Tins druf does good things in joints," Dr. Kenneth Brandt of Indiana Universuy sa; d Fnday before fellow advisers to the Food and Drug AdminIstration unanunously recommended Arava's approval for sale. The FDA IS not bound by its advisers' recommendauons, but typically follows Lhem . Rheumatoid anhritts afTects about 2 milhon Americans, the vast majority of them women . It ts not the kind of anhntis that plagues the elderly as their joints essenually wear out Instead, rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease the tmmune system goes awry and attacks patients' own cartilage. It typica ll y strtkes between ages 25 and 50. The best treatment today is methotrexate, a cancer drug But it causes troublesome SJdc effects. and its effectiveness wanes over time, leaving patients Wtlh few options. Arava, known chemtcally as leflunomide, IS the first in a series of promising new treatments now approaching the market, after decades of no new alternatives. It works by blockmg the overproduction of immune cells that are responsible for most of the arthntis's mflammation. Hoechst studied 480 Americans with moderate disease. Some 41 percent of Arava patients saw thetr arthrills improve, compared with 19 percent of patients taking dummy pills. Methotrexate pauents improved about the same as Arava patients. Then HoechsttOok X-rays of pauents' hand s and feet, studying bone erosion and cantlage dtsappearance to track the diSease 's progress. Arava patients did worsen. But m a year of study, phiceho patients worsened four times more qUickly than Arava patients. Methotrexate also slowed the disease's progression but not as much as Arava dtd. Arava did cause stde effects m more than one-fourth of all patients, including diarrhea and hair lo ss. But 11 did not seem as prone to causing the serious problems that methotrexate sometimes can, such as kidney failure, said Dr. Marc Hochberg of the Umverstty of Maryland, who monitored the study's safety. Methotrexate also works by blocking immune cells, but targets a dif- ferent enzyme than Arava to do the JOb. . . Arava does have a significant problem: Unlike most'drugs that dtsstpate shortly after patients uake the last dose, Arava can take at least stx months to clear out of the body. Also, animal studies suggest it can cause numerous birth defects. The FDA advisers said pregnant women should never take Arava and premenopausal women should use effective birth control to guard against becoming pregnant. More troublesome was what to tell women who have already taken Arava and then decide they want to have a baby. Hoechst has discovered that a longtime anti-cholesterol drug called cholestyramine can help flush Arava out of the body. Ten days of cholestyramine treatment can reduce blood levels of Arava 1,000-fold, Hoechst scientists said. So the FDA advisers recommended that women take cholestyramine and binh control until lab tests certify that Arava is no longer detectable in their blood. The panel also recommended regular hver monitoring, because just like methotrexate, Arava can cause liver damage. Under court order, archives to begin snipping old Nixon tapes By NANCY BENAC Associated Press Writer WASHINGlDN- Decades after the fighttng over hts tapes began, Rtchard Ntxon ts finally getung at least part of hts wtsh. The Nattonal Archtves, under a court order 11 had fought for years, on Monday wtll begm cuttmg up the ongmal tapes from the Watergate years and returnmg portions dealmg wtth pnvate matters to the late prestdent's estate. That's a SIZable chunk of the tapes - about 820 hours out of 3,700. Ntxon went to hiS grave m 1994 Immensely frustrated that the government still had custody of the material even though the Supreme Coun tn 1977 had ruled that private conversati ons would have to be returned The pnvate parts of the tapes were never meant for the public 's ears. " He wanted to make absolutely sure that famtly and personal conve rsations were never made pubhc," satd John Taylor, who is an executor of the Ntxon estate and runs the privately-financed Ntxon library in Yorba Lmda, Calif. Taylor said the executors probably would destroy the personal outtakes fro m the ongmal tape. But he satd nothmg was bemg lost to history, calling the long dispute "entirely an emotional and symbolic issue." Archivist of the United States John Carlin has asked the Nixon estate to accept a full " master preservation copy" of the tapes so that the full record will be preserved intact. "This would allow the polittcal conversations. which are included m those pnvate or personal materials, to be preserved in context with other' conversations and possibly to be made avrulable to the public in the future, " the archives said in a statement. Taylor said the Nixon estate wouldn't tamper with the "preservation copy." But he also said the estate would never make public the portions that deal with strictly personal matters. "At no point does the Nixon estate ever mtend to do anything that could cause history to have the opportunity to ltsten to family and personal portions," he said. "The Nixon estate made a solemn promise to the president and his family." However, some portions of the "private" tapes being returned to the Nixon estate arc about political matters rather than family matters- the 1972 re-election campaign, for example. Taylor did not rule out the posstbthty that some of that material eventually might reach the public. That would please NiKon hi stori an Stanley Kutler. He had no obJeClton to the public bemg denied access to strictly personal conversattons but said politica1 discusstons were a dtl - ferent matter "That's what Watergate was all about," he said. In the years after Nixon reSigned '" 1974 to avoid impeachment, the government seized his tapes. The for- mer president - and later his estate - went to coun to get them back. The Supreme Court required the government to return the private portions, but the archives balked, argu- ing that historically tmportant segments of the original tapes that were adjacent to personal matters could be lost or damaged in the process. * 2 AIRLINE TICKETS: OCTOBER 3-4, 1998 * 2 TICKETS TO BUSH/WINSTON RACE * 3 NIGHTS STAY AT WYNDHAM HOTEL * SHUTTLE SERVICE * 2 PASSES TO GOTHAM CIJY HOSPITALTY TENT VIHICUI STOP IN FOR FREE APPRAISAL t ime.

It mi ght be a necessary opt10n if the money is needed nght now. Or just a pragmatic one - due to the high value of the dollar. For Russo, who turned 62 on Aug. 1. the deCISIOn to take reduced benefits early was the optton he chose. He thinks that he'll hve a long 11me, gtven that hi s mother ts altve at 90. and II."

But they also mtght JUSt be more practtcal, espectally tf people are conunumg to work. Soctal Secunty puts a ltmtt on earned wages and cuts back benefits for those making more than the ltmit. Bocksttegel's husband said he was still gainfully employed when he turned 62 and didn't plan to give up his job. Even when he went part ttme at 65 and started collecting Soctal Security, he earned too much money, and hts benefits were cut. In 1998, Soctal Security deducts $1 in benefits for every $2 that recipients under 65 make over $9,120 a year. The limit this year for people 65 to 69 is $14,500, and $1 for every $3 earned over the limit is deducted. Bockstiegel now is 72 (his wife is 71) and no longer has 10 worry about earnings limits because there is none for recipients over 70.

"They are changing the law so much I want to take it now before they raise the age," he said.

He said he doesn't really need the $1,101 a month from Social Security and lives mostly from his pension and savings, so he will invest the benefits Assume first that Social Security adjusts monthly payments by 3 perceni for inflation annually. If he were to take full benefits at 65, it would take him 12 years to make up for the three years of early payments.

Lobo, who topped her 17-point effort on June 19 at Los Angeles, shot 10-for-18 from the field and also grabbed eight rebounds. New York won for ninth time in II games at Madtson Square Garden in front of 18,014 fans, second-largest crowd in team history.

New York currently holds the final WNBA playoff spot. It was the worst loss this season for the Sparks (10-15), who had 16-pointlosses to Sacramento and HoustOn in June.

Franchitti claims·pole position for today's CART Miller Lite 200 By TIM PUET LEXINGTON, Ohio (AP) Dario Franchini won the pole position Saturday for the CART Miller Lite 200 at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course as the track record was broken for the second straight day. Franchitti, a second-year driver from Scotland, had a fast lap of 123.766 mph in his final qualifying try over the 2.25-mile, 13-turn road course in the hills of north-central Ohio. It's the ninth straight year the track qualifying record has been broken. Joining him on the front row for the race today will be Jimmy \' asser. Bryan Herta, who had the fastest time in Friday 's first day of oualifying, will stan third. TIJis is the third time this season and fourth in his career that Franchitti has been the fastest qualifier. He will be on the front row for the fourth time in the last six races, but he's lookin$ for his first victory. "That was all we had on the last lap," Franchini said of his performance on a stifling day. The temperature was 96 degrees and the track temperature at 130 during qualify ing. "I didn't think really we had the answer here. ·"It was just a matter of putting it all (ogether on one lap. It's a very difficult track where the car is good in soine comers and not so good in others. But we did it." Franchitti will collect $410,000 if he wins today. His winner's purse would be $100,000, with the rest coming from a prize fund that has grown each time a driver failed to win from the pole. Vasser's teammate, Alex Zanardi, was the last driver to sweep. That was in Cleveland, in July 1997, 20 races ago. Vasser's qualifying time in a Target-Chip Ganassi Racing Reynard-Honda was 123.474 mph. The 1996 series champion will be trying for his third win this year a sweep of CART's Ohio races after winning at Cleveland earlier this year. "I'm pretty happy just to be in the front row ," Vasser said. " I would have liked to have a shot at that (pole) mcney, but instead I'll have to make sure he (Franchini) doesn't get it." Herta's Team Rahal ReynardFord had a last lap of 123.420 mph before sliding off the track near the end of qualifying. That was better than the track record of 122.977 Herta had set Friday, but not good enough for a front-row spot. Herta and owner-teammate Bobby Rahal will be the crowd favorites today because their team is hased about 60 miles from the track, and it will be Rahal's lasi race at Mid-Ohio as a driver after 17 seasons. Herta won the pole last year, but exited early with a cut tire . Polesitters have won eight of the previous 16 CART races at MidOhio, and Herta said Franchini had a big advantage. "This is not an easy place to pas· ... so it'll be tough (to improve h·' position), but I don'tthink II will be impossible." said Herta. who like Franchini is chasing his first victory . "You just have to be patient some- no CART driver has won from lower than eighth place. He also slid off course during the final qualifying Rahal, who will stan 16th, said tf sesston . he were to win , ''it would be just phenomenal," but added that Herta realistically had the better shot at a No matter what he does yoday, VICtOry.

A three-point field goal that would have won the game for the Americans was disallowed because it came just after the final buaer. The seasoned Russians, essentially the same team that lost to Dream Team II by 46 points in the championship game four years ago. was led by 30 points from Sergey Babkov. The Russians will play Yugoslavia, the European champion and 1996 Olymptc silver medalist. for the title Sunday. Yugoslavia beat Greece 78-73 1n the other semifinal. The Americans will play the Greeks Sunday for the bronze. If the Americans lose, they would be the first U.S. team to come hoPle. without a medal in the worlds since the 1978 team finished fifth . "We basically shot ourselves m the foot , whtch IS what a lot of people at home thought we were gomg to do," said Ashraf Amaya, who has p(ayed 95 NBA games but - like h~ teammates - now plays in the CBA or Europe. ·, we had the opportunity to prove everybody wrong, and not doing it really burns me. "I would say the Dream Team probably would have beat them by 50. The Dream Team is the Dream Team, but we're not the Dream Team. It 's not fair to make the comparison." The makeshift Americans - . led by center Gerard King wit~"'' 0 points and Jimmy Oliver with nine - led 64-54 with 3:10 to play after Jimmy King scored on a slam. But Babkov, a member of tha\ '94 silver medal team, hit two three-pointers- the second with I :23 left, tying the score 64-64 as the U.S. weqt cofd late against me Russians' zone defense.

" But' we should have had enough of a cushi on that they couldn ' t have taken it away." The Americans are 6-2 (they also lost by two pomts to Lithuania in their opening game), haven't scored 100 points, and have posted wins by an average of 12 points. In Toronto four years ago, Dream Team II averaged 40-point margins in their wins and scored more than I00 points seven times. "The Dream Team in Canada had very strong players," said Babkov, who plays professionally in Malaga, 1 Spain; with WOOd. "This team was quite a bit weaker. They ·were OK on offense but weak on defense. But a win is a win, especially over an American learn." The loss means the U.S. will not qualify automatically for the 2000 Olympics.

The influence of Christians on their teammates seems to have grown over that last several yean;, and that's a good thing, both for the person and their spiritual well-being and the arena of pro sports in general. Reggie White, Green Bay's '·Min· isterof Defense," has been one of !he more outspoken leaders among Christian athletes lately, and it appears even "Prime Time" Deion Sanders has undergone a drastic transfonmation of the heart and soul. Several well-known Christian athletes were given the perfect stage from which to share their faith recently during the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremonies in Canton. Amid the hoopla and excitement that fonncr Philadelphia wideout Tommy MacDonald generated during last weekend's induction, the .thing that really stood out to me, and :encouraged me greatly, was the deep ·faith in God expressed by several of :the inductees. Especially encourag:ing, and deeply moving, was the ·introduction offered by Michael :Munoz, son of fonner Cincinnati :great Anthony Munoz. : In that speech, the young man ;hrietly cited the long list of accolades •that his father had earned as a play;er, but quickly identified the foun'dation of Munoz's success: his :unyielding, resilient faith in Jesus 'Christ. The rest of the introduction speech centered around the fonmer all-pro tackle's dedication to his f~ith and his family. ~ ' Munoz was followed by fonncr ·Chicago middle linebacker Mike .Singeltary, who is known as an outspoken Christian within the NFL. In _,his acceptance speech, Singeltary .'thundered like an old fashioned ~\eachcr, giving GOd the gl_ory for ··llis success and acknowledgrng that )i was God who gave him the abili:ty to play the game and the drive to ;lie a great player. :: Both Munoz and Singeltary ~intcd out that despite the great :rome they have gained on the field, ·-die priority of their lives is a personal 1i:lalionship with Jesus Christ and :J~ading their families down the same ·:road of faith. :·: On occasion.

I know it doesn't count, but after last year 's surprising performance, the Bucs are on the path to this year's Super Bowl. If Tampa Bay can weather the injury bug, they may find themselves playing in this year's big game. After all, Green Bay has gone the way of previous champions. Like the Dallas Cowboys of yesteryear, free agency has dismembered the Packers. They have lost a great deal of talent as a result of their recent success. It happens that way in football The Cowboys were the dominant team in the game and lost players to free agency. Dallas was the roadblock in Green Bay"s path to the Super Bowl. But once the Cowboys' talent level was hrought down to that of the rest of the league, Gree n Bay was finally able to defeat them. Look how long it took the Packers to even get them to the frozen tundra. It was Green Bay which stood in Tampa Bay's road last year. The Bucs lnst three times to the Packers in titanic defensive struggles. The Bucs were nnly ahlc to crack the 20-point margin once during these contests. This year. Tampa Bay is ready to cha llenge the Pack in the NFC Central. Green Bay"s defense was vulnerable against Denver's running game in last January's Super Bowl.

The Cards, a team which desperately needs starting pitching, sent Todd Stottlemeyer to the Rangers. However, since Stottlemeyer is a free agent after the season, St. Louis plans to sign bim in the off-season. Todd Zeile has become the new poster child for playoff deals. Zeile was the can't-miss catching prospect of the Cardinals in the early '90s. The problem was be couldn't throw my grandmother out if she attempted to steal second base. When Joe Torre became the Cardinals' manager, he made Zeile a third baseman; but Torre was fired and Zeile was shipped to the Cubs for pitcher Mike Morgan. After a short stay in Chicago, Zeile signed with the Phil lies in the off-season, and was later traded to Baltimore for the 1996 playoff run. After that season, he signed a three-year deal with the Dodgers. He grew up near Los Angeles and wanted to return home. Doesn 'I this sound like a happy ending? Well, it isn't. . Zeile was later traded, with Mike Piazza. in that blockbuster deal between the Dodgers and the Marlins last June. Naturally, on Aug. 31, he was sent to Texas for the playoff run. That means he has played for seven teams in the last four years. Talk about a game which desperately needs stability! How would you like to be Zeile's wife and kids? How many homes and schools have they frequented during this period' Naturally, fans get lost with all these players being shuffled about. It's difficult to maintain player loyalty under such conditions, but fan fever is very high. Look at the Yankees! They arc over SO games about .500. They are possibly the greatest team of all time .

Ireland (AP)- Deliant and angry, banned Olympic champion Michelle Smith insisted she is innocent of tampering with a drug test and accused swimming authorities of conspiring to end her career. ''I' m not going to crawl under a stone and never be heard from again and not fight against thi s ban. " she said Friday.

Smith. a hero in Ireland since her exploits at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, plans to ciear her name at an appeals hearing and sue the swimming federation. When asked at a news conference why swimming authorities might pursue a vendetta against her, Smith gestured to her husband, Erik de Bruin . ''I' m married to this man," she said. "Some people think that'1 motive enough." De Bruin was the Dutch champion discus thrower before testing positive for excessive testosterone. He was banned for four years. ending his career.

On Thursday, FIN A ruled Smith was guilty of tampering with an outof-competition urine test taken at her home in January.

"I had no motive for introducing alcohol or indeed any other masking agent into my sample , as I have ncvcr tested positive for the use of any banned substance throughout my career," she said.

The interest by IBM rivals, including computer maker HewlellPackard Corp. and software company Novell Inc., underscores that IBM's pullout hasn't tarnished the allure of the Olympics' all -gold image as a corporate marketing tool.

Some people will choose a product with the Olympic emblem over another product because they want to support the games. "Even before the IBM announcemcnt, there were a number of very, very senior executives in information technology who had sent us queries." said John Krimsky, head of the marketing arm of the U.S. and Salt Lake Olympic committees. Salt Lake City is host to the first Olympics IBM won't be involved in, the 2002 Winter Games.

A source familiar with ~he search. speaking on condition of anonymity, >aid one possible candidate to share the sponsorship that IBM handled alone is Novell, a maker of networking software based 30 miles from Salt Lake City. For Its part, Hewlett-Packard, one of the world's largest tcchnology companies after IBM, is touting its month-long sponsorship of the World Cup soccer competition that ended in July as proof it can handle the Olympics. · Hew leu-Packard spokesman Bob Major said the company's powerful business computers ran lhe Web site for France. which had 1.5 billion visits over five weeks by Internet surfers viewing game scores and othcr information.

Her round wa.s perhaps highlighted by her play on the par 4, 464-yard fourth hole,· when her tee shot veered right into the woods. She punched it out to within 12 feet of the hole and sank the putt for a birdie. "That was nice," said Mallon, 35. of Ramona. Calif. "That kind of kept my momentum going." Sinn. who hasn't won a tournament since joining the tour in 1990, combined accurate tee shots with strong pulling to collect eight birdies. "I've been spending a lot of time outthcrc ·oo the green. practicing," Sinn said. "It seems like that's helping a lot. I'm making a lot of good pulls. I'm not making too many mistakes out there."

The first four-door model ever campaigned regularly in NASCAR's elite series has eight wins in 19 races, and two of its drivers are battling Chcvrolet'.s Jeff Gordon for the championship. The replacement for the retired Thunderbird was introduced one year ago. and did not tum a wheel on a racetrack until testing last fall. Its first race was the season-opening Daytona 500 In February. How can a car go from the drawing hoard to the winner's circle in so liule time! Try team effort. No. make that "teams effort." "The people at Penske, Roush Raci~g and Robert Yates Racing.

"Usually, you find something, you want to keep it to yourself," Jar.rctt said. "But all the Ford teams as they developed this car, found some. thing that made it beucr and shared that infonnation."

NASCAR has responded by taking each model to the wind tunnel twice and making several changes. But nobody ever seems completely satisfied. 'Tt's going to be interesting to see how NASCAR treats the next car that comes in. because we were given some guidelines based on the precedents set or the parameters set by the Monte Carlo and Pontiac before us," said Preston Miller, Ford's NASCAR program manager when the project began and now a technical c;pnsultant to the company.

Even after cougars killed two California hikers, voters rejected a 1996 proposal to reinstate hunting. · ''Peo ple have a more holi stic approach to sharing the land, not just with co ugars but with bears and other animals once considered varmints," said Brooks· Fahy, cxccutive director of the Predator Defense Institute in Eugene, Ore. ''I think people like knowin g these animals are out there .'' Even rn cougar-friendly California, however, there are limits to intetspeci es goodwill. Hunters note that an average of I 00 "problem" cougars are killed each year in California - about twice the number killed annually by hunters before the 1972 ban. Are cougars becoming bolder in the absence of hunting? Many hunters, and some game officials, believe that's the case. But Fahy disputes that theory, saying the dramatic rise in both cougar and human populations explains the increase in encounters. There's also no evidence !hat hunting puts the fear of people in mountain lions, Fahy says. He points to British Columbia. which has the continenl's highest rate of cougar attacks despite heavy hunting. Beier, the Arizona researcher , said he wouldn't expect hunting to noticeably reduce the number of cougar attacks unless the killing reached a level not allowed since the early 1960s, when bounties were paid for dead cougars. 446-0842 Onl~ • With every encounter that hits the evening news, the jitter factor rises among the general populace, until sometimes it seems as if there's a predator behind every tree. Wildlife officials say they've received complaints of "cougars" that turned out to be deer, yellow Labrador retrievers or even house cats playing in the grass.

A cougar can sprint 40 mph and leap 20 feet into a tree . With its grea1 yellow eyes and keen nose, it can see and smell people coming long before they know the cougar is there. Westerners have argued for years, with no consensus yet, over how to coexist with an animal that occasionally displaces humans at the top of the food chain. In Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and New Mexico, recent complaints from ranchers and deer hunters about too many cougars prompted game officials to relax cougar-hunting rules. . The West' s more urban coastal states, meanwhile, have grown more protective of the big cats . Washington voters banned the use of hounds for recreational cougar-hunting in 1996, the same year that Oregon voters rejected a challenge to their state's ban on hounds.

About one out of three mothers ts an extreme sacrificer. says Carin Rubenstein, social-psychologist and author of "The Sacrificial Mother· Escaping the Trap of Sclf.Denial" (Hyperion. $22.95). The message sacrificial mothers send to others is that their needs don't count. Rubenstein says. and women whose pattern of self-denial and se lf-sacn licc continues for 100 long forget who they are and end up losing thetr own dreams and selfesteem. We talked with Rubenstein about her research . QUESTION: Why do so many women fall into the trap of selfdenial? Is it genetic or because society expects women to be self· oaerificing? ANSWER: Both. Clearly there's a biological component. or else the human spec ies wouldn't have survived . But also society tells us to be that way. It's not usually a conscious decision but what you fall mto because that 's what your mother did or that 's what your husband expects of you. In a sense 1t's an easy way out.

A: Yes. it's very easy when you have an infant to deny yourself because a baby needs so much attention. What happens is. sacrificial mothers tend not to notice when those demands lessen. It's sort of a habit that many moms never get out of. They love being depended on. They don't want to give that up officiating.

Other farn· ilies in Fair Haven at this time were: John and Susan Rothgeb, sons Evan and William, and daughter Eva; Bill Bryant, Frank Allen, Dave Edwards and daughter Meadie, and sons Hoyt and Charlie; Mrs. Charles Jell. and Hudson Maddy.

They were skilled carpenters and soon erected a clapboard buildmg with colored glass windows, a handcarved altar rail , and a pulpit stand. a potbellied stove and otl or carbtne lamps. This effort was started by Wm . Deem who raised money by subscription. wtth the help of Ella Wagner, Gus Steele. and others. The land was purchased (some sources say it was donated) by or from J. W. or Charles and Lydia Stone. The bell was a gift from James Guthrie and had been used on the steamboat "Silver Cloud'. The church entered the Ohio Methodist Conference that same year. Rev. T. F. Garrell was the first minister. The Willard Epworth League was also organized Jt this time. In 1908 a land development company purchased land and divtded it into lots for sale.

Kanauga Storekeeper Started Fund for Construction of Church There In 1B9B (excerpt from area paper writ· ten around 1935 Founder Still Active In M. E. Congregation Affairs. By Malcolm Hartley When W. F. Deem, storekeeper and postmaster at Kanauga, aue11ded a churc'1._ meeting years ago in West Virginia and was converted, he determined that his community should have a church where the residents could worship. Seeking adv1ce from a pastor 10 Gallipolis, he was informed that he and his netghbors should attend services al the Gallipolis Church. This was advice with which he did not agree. With the aid of other residents of the community, he began to raise money by subscnption for the buildmg of a church. The church was erected in 1898, most of the labor bemg voluntary. and was called the Fair Haven MethodiSt EpiScopa l Church. The name of the comm umty 10 whtch the church ts located IS Fatr Haven, although the Post Off1ce address is Kanauga because there IS another Fair Haven 10 Guernsey County. Falf Haven was part of the Ohio Company Purchase. the area was laid out as a community earher than Gallipolis. The early French first came there. but moved to the higher land in Gallipolis after a fl ood. GROWN SINCE 1900 The communtty below Falf Haven and adjoining it, has grown up since the beginning of the century. and was named Kanauga after the Post Office. The church is thought to be the most influential factor in keeping the name of Fair Haven alive . Mr. Deem is believed to be the only one of the builders of the church still residing in the community. He still takes an active part in church work, being supenntendent and a trustee. Rev. A. B. Garrett was the first pastor of the church. There have been a number of others. The present minister is Rev. A. B. Clarey. who assumed the pastorate in September, 1935.

What the heck' Gettmg thetr own credit cards gives them the feeling that they, indeed, have n•oved into the adult world. The cards are so easy to get and to use that the students believe that they can "have it all-and now", It seems like "free money". That's gr~at until the bills slar1 pouring in and many students who are dependent upon parents and student loans find there are no funds with which to make the payments. So the cycle begins and the young people go deeper and deeper in debt and with the high interest rate on the credit cards it generally spells disaster. The students then must depend on relatives to pull them out of the hole or adopt a policy of robbing Peter to pay Paul which only worsens the problem. I don 't have an answer.

The Gerber Baby is still chubby, sun gazing at the world in wonder· ment. Her face adorns nearly 200 baby food and care products on store shelves worldwide. Ann Tumer Cook's round face, drawn by artist Dorothy Hope Smith in 1928, is so well-known that Gerber l'roducts Company wouldn't dream of changing it. "We have no plans to change the baby at all," because people automati· cally think "baby food" when they sec it, says Gerber president AI Piergallini. Cook, now 71, says, "It's gratify· ing to me to know it's (the drawing) going to be around a lot longer than I known food faces - both real and contrived - that have changed over the years, sometimes quite often. Take Betty Crocker, who was ere· ated in 1921 by General Mills. Her name now adorns pie crust, cook.ic, what race," he says, while acknowl· edging requests to change the icon. "Mostly we get pictures from par· ents who want us to use their baby," he says. Just !IS the Gerber Baby doesn't have to grow up, neither do animated spokescharacters like the Pillsbury Dough Boy (also known as Poppin' Fresh). "An animated character can be timeless. We wouldn't want him to get older. We want him to be consistent. That's important for establishing a brand name," says Purdy, who works on the Pillsbury account at Leo Bur· nett. "We don't have to worry about long sideburns. He is who he is," Pillsbury spokeswoman Marlene Johnson says. He is a pudgy white critter with a cute giggle, born from a can of refrig· erated dough in \965. Arms outstretched, he now appears on products ranging from cake mixes to frozen toaster strudel. "Essentially, he's the same charac· ter he was when he popped out of a can in I %5. There may have been some slimming down, a little fiddling with his scarf," Purdy says. But Johnson says Poppin' Fresh hasn't shed any pounds. Sometimes he "stands with his arms on his head, and he looks a little skinnier like that," she muffin , cake and brownie mixes, as well as icing, cookbooks and even breakfast cereal. The Betty Crocker face was first painted in 1936 and has been altered seven times. It was last updated in 1996, when the 1mages of 75 women were morphed into a single, computer· generated image that was then painted by John Stuart Ingle. The new Betty Crocker look reflects not only current fashion . but also has multi-ethnic characteristics. aJll., She is the first brown-eyed Betty.

"We think the baby stands for an icon like Gerber's is not something many companies achieve easily. Con· babies all across the world, no matter sumers want a unique product, and they want a consistent, yet modem advertising message, say ad agency executives and clients. That can be a tall order. "Finding the right character for a brand is not an easy thing to do," whether it is human or animated, says Clay Purdy, account director at Leo Burnett advertising agency in Chicago. The agency has created many -famous animated spokescritters, including the Pillsbury Dough Boy, Kellogg's Tony the Tiger and the Kce· ·bier elves. Smith's sketch is the right image for Gerber because the artist "captured the appeal that babies have. People identify it with babies," says Cook, a retired English teacher who lives in Tampa,Aa. The Uncle Ben's rice icon isn 't nearly as young-looking as the Gerber Baby, but it hasn 't aged, either. Uncle Ben, a Texas rice fanner. died before Cordon L.

Nonhuman characters like Poppin ' Fresh may have eternal youth, but they still have to appeal to modem· day consumers. Improvements in animation tech· nology have allowed the Dough Boy to stay up-to-date, Johnson says. "Earlier in his career he might have simply walked or talked.

ARBORS AT GALLIP(}LIS Skilled Nursing Center 170 Pinecrest Drive Gallipolis, OH 45631 (614) 446-7112 • • ARBOR " '' �Sunday, August 9, 1998- Pomeroy o Middleport o Gallipolis, OH o Point Pleasant, WV Entertainment Blue Lake News style of journalism no long.er exists in newspapers By: James Sanda For over 30 years Mrs . C. E. Sheets wrote weekly in the Gallipolis Daily Tribune about Blue Lake. a community along the Raccoon Creek near and in present day Thivener. Mrs. Sheets actually began writing For newspapers m I 902 when she was only 12 years of age. She first contributed news to the Pomeroy and Athens papers. Her columns were quite lengthy and a good source of information. For instance in peru sing her essays from I 954 one can learn a good deal about agriculture , wild animals , plants, churches, schools and coal mining. In 1953 stripping of coal began in the Blue Lake area. Mrs. Sheets described in some detai I the various steam shovels. one or which she reckoned to weigh over one-half million tons. Curious 1ouri sts ·came to Blue Lake and viewed such giant shovels as "Big Bertha Jane" and "The Anita Iota" . Mrs. Sheets commentated that many strangers were coming into Blue Lake in 1954 and one was never sure if they were "friend or foe" . The stripping was taking away a lot of orchards and in general changing the landscape. Rabbit hunting, once a popular diversion in Blue Lake, had becu severely crippled by the coal mining as well . Other strange. s came to Blue Lake for fi shing. She described in detail how the s!ripping had also affected the fi shing. In regard to church news in and about Blue Lake, most of the news was about Elizabeth Chapel where Mrs. Sheets attended. She reported weekly the attendance and the offering. In 1954 the attendance at 10 a.m. Slmday school averaged about 60 and the offering was about S10 per week. Worship was on Sunday evening . There were prayer meetings on Wednesday and the women's society met on the 4th Wednesday morn mg. Teachers at Elizabeth Chapel in 1954 included: Allen Romain, Mrs . Marshall Boggs, Mrs. Alma Shaw, Mrs. Ed ith Bane, Mrs. Dorothy Young. and Mrs. Frances Steger. Mrs. Sheet< commented in 1954 that practically everyone on Blue Lake kept two hogs for fall butcher- ing. There were a few cattle, but sheep raising was almost non-exis'tent with !he exceptions of Mrs. Ola Bostic and John Haffelt. Many Blue Lake farmers were buying guineas. These unusual blue and white birds protected poultry from wild animals with their "blood curdling" screaming. There was a quite an epidemic of foxes , skunlc.s . minks and weasels getting into the hen house. Few people ate guineas as the blue meat was as tough as leather, but few foxes could tolerate the guinea's noise . The stripping had forced the chicken predators out of the hills and into Blue Lake. · Blue Lake's most favored chtckens were: White Leghorns, Rhode Island Reds, New Hampshire Reds, and Carolina Reds . Eggs· in 1954 were selling for 50 cents a dozen, but chicken feed was very high at 5 dollars for 100 pounds. One fox , chased by four dogs, ran through the milking parlor of Kermit Price. After scaring the stuffing out of Mr. Price and his cows, the fox entered the house of Mrs. Ella Wal ters. He ran around Mrs. Walters house and exited the other side, thus leaving his "chasers" confused. In the fall Mrs. Sheets would write at considerable length about such things as pulling the fodder in shocks , making apple butter, canning fruits, harvesting tobacco and cabbage. The Blue Lake area was known for its late cabbage which in 1954 brought farmers in the Huntington market only four cents a pound. Blue Lake farmers also grew beets, tomdtoes, com and beans for the market. Blue Lake farmers had helped popularize a variety of bush bean that yielded three crops every summer. Mrs. Sheets was quite knowl edgeable about tobacco and even told readers one week that tobacco was soned into 8 grades: bright leaf, lug, red leaf, tips, trash, house burnt, frog's eye, and green leaf. . Occasionally a storm would be reponed by Mrs. Sheets in her unique way : "Last Sunday at 5 p.m. a twister of cyclonic nature visited Blue Lake. Large trees were uprooted, Oying limbs off locust and other trees blew across outbuildings. Many farmereues worked fast gathering their pan frys and baby chicks, which were turned out on range for the intense heat and sun rays to give them a sun bath. A few outbuildings blew away and many small ones were turned ove.r. Many chickens left out on the range drowned." Mrs. MERCERVILLE - Barry - Moore. reunion at Hannan Trace Elementary Sc hool.

'Cable TV channels, faced with increasing competition from an increasing number of cable choices, are investing heavily in original programs to help them break through the clutter. " Original programming is what makes you special. They're unique to your channel," says Mark Sonnenberg, vice president of Fox's FX cable channel, after a presentation to the Television Critics Association Summer Press Tour held recently in California. A year ago, FX gained attention - and ratings - by filling prime time with double repeats of "NYPD Blue" and " The X-Files, " two cutting..:dge network dramas. For two decades, cable channels have thrived on repeats of network shows, from " I Love Lucy" to "Law and Order." plus replays of theatrical and TV movies, occasional made-for-cable movies, a few original productions, professional wrestling and other spqrting events. But at the recent Television Critics Association Summer Press Thur in Pasadena, Calif., the mantra of every cable TV executive was "more original programming." And that was before cable networks on July 23 earned a record 139 primetime Emmy nominations, led by 17 nominations for HBO's " From the Earth to the Moon "- more than "ER " or "The X-Files" (16 each). Cable's impressive Emmy showing - 36 percent of the 390 nominations - came on the heels of · another TV watershed: the com· bined ratings for basic cable channels (44.7 percent) surpassed the c~mbined audience for mostly reruns on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox (44.2 percent) the week of June 29· July 5. Basic cable did it again (44.6 The Shoe Cafe Galltpu11s . .. ,· to 44.0) July 13-19. ·Cable programmers, bullish about their prospects, boasted about their new sitcoms, dramas, movies, game shows, children's programs and variety series for the fall season. They totaled more than 1,000 hours, though NBC executives were quick to put the numbers in perspective. "The- fact is, NBC programs 2,131 hours of original entertainment a year. Now that's more than all the 'Cable services combined, " says Warren Littlefield, NBC Entertainment president. And most cable channel ratings "have not really increased this summer. Seventy-five percent of all the cable channels have stayed the same . and only a few - MTV, Nickelodeon, Sci-Fi, Family - have. shown some increase," says Stu Bloomberg, ABC Entertainment chairman. Here's a glance at fall cable programs: • Lifetime: The women's cable channel launches three new series Aug. 18- a drama and two sitcoms - from 9 to II p.m., against " Spin City," " Just Shoot Me," "NYPD Blue" and "Date:ine NBC." Annie Potts and Lorraine Toussaint stat in "Any Day Now," a one-hour drama (9 p.m.) about a housewife and an African-American lawyer. Ann Cusack plays " Maggie," a married woman in a midlife crisis (10 p.m.), followed by "Oh Baby," with Cynthia Stevenson in TV 's first sitcom about an artificially inseminated single woman ( 10:30 p.m.). • Family programs: Fox totally revamps the Family Channel on Aug. 15, infusing it with $500 million in new and off-network rerun programming. While the heart of the new Fox Family Channel will be 680 hours of new 6-9 p.m. weekday shows, Fox al<o will produce new Shining Time Station programs with new "Thomas the Tank" adventures during weekdays, as well as 20 original Sunday night movies. Nickelodeon will double its prime-time commitment, offering an hour of original programming (8-9 p.m.) on Aug. 31. Since Nickelodeon ventured into prime time (8-8:30 p.m.) two years ago, programming to children abandoned by the Big Four broadcast networks, its audience among viewers ages 2-11 has tripled, says Cyma Zarghami, Nickelodeon vice president and general manager. "By serving kids where others est rating, just as O.J. Simpson did and the death of Diana did," he said. "You can certainly justify it and say it is the potential impeachment of a president and that there is a lot of interest. My objection is, how did it get like this? " Ratings for "Hardball " were going up pre-Lewinsky, Matthews is quick to point out. That increase is dwarfed by the spike in viewership after the story broke in late January. Maybe it's wishful thinking on his part. but Matthews doesn't see a quick end to the story. There's no reason to think Clinton, the " Michael Jordan of spin," is going to change what he's been saying, he said. "I don't think this president is going to quit, and I don't think Starr is going to quit, and it's just going to go on and on and on," he said. "At some point, we'll get a sense of what it would have been like to have been there if Richard Nixon burned the tapes - the sense of it's over, but it 's not really over." He and Rivera present a stark contrast for anyone who watches back-to-back. Rivera sympathizes with the president. Matthews doesn't. " He's New York, I'm Washington," Matthews said. "I am much House, than people on either of the coasts in New York and Los Angeles ... They have a much more hip view of these things than I do." Matthews said the case raises questions about Clinton's fitness for office, "and I don 't think Geraldo really shares those questions. " I think he sees it as a matter of civil liberties, of·Bill Clinton being judged as an individual rather than as president, and how he would be judged by himself as a man," he said . You'd think a Matthews viewer would reach for the remote in disgust when Rivera comes on, and vice versa . But Manhews harks back to a youthful experience in suggesting that might not be the case. Growing up in Pennsylvania, Matthews would occasionally be the altar boy when a Roman Catholic Mass was said for residents of the state 's largest mental institutions. He noticed that many of the people who attended the Catholic Mass stayed for the Protestant se rvice thot direct ly followed . " Some people arc so Fascinated with the subjecl, as wilh a religion, · that they'll sit through two different denominations in a row," he said.

It's possible, for two hours each weeknight on the cable network, to get lost amid the twists and turns of President Clinton 's sex scandal the supposedly stained dress. the immunity deals, the friends wired for sound, the leaking legal teams. Matthews and Rivera are CNBC's tag team wrestlers on the story. Rivera's nightly legal affairs program was established through relentless coverage of a previous big story, the O.J. Simpson case, and Matthews is riding the Lewinsky case in similar fashion to build an audience. Matthews ' "Hardball," weeknights at 8 p.m. EDT, was seen live in an average of 475 ,000 households last month, up from 192,000 in July 1997. In June, CNBC yanked Charles Grodin's 11 p.m. public affairs show to show repeats of "Hardball," figuring a cheap rerun gets about the same viewership as a cosily original program at that hour.

Just look' at the opening 20 minutes: a complex sequence centered around an Atlantic City police officer, played by Nicolas Cage. Wearing a Hawaiian shirt, he walks into a large casino, goes up and down two flights of stairs, enters and exits three or four small rooms, has specific encounters with a half-dozen separate characters, and eventually goes into a crowd of thousands to take his 5eat at a box· ing match. Sheets died in early 1963. ----Gallia Community 'Snake Eyes': Flashy, yet shallow new film from Brian DePalma , FRIDAY AUGUST14 RICK K.AND THE ALLNIGHTERS 3 p.m. I &p.m .

But not enough to go deaf. "Sometimes you sit there and .plug your ears," says Hall, 67, a trust company receptionist who goes to lhe movies with friends once or twice a week. "The trailers are the worst The only reason we don't wa il till they're over is that then we can't get a good seat. " Hall and her friends are not alone. At a recent Los Angeles screening of " Armageddon," sound drove one moviegoe r to the lobby. " Their ears are bleeding in there, " she said. At a Washington, D.C., showing of " Let hal Weapon 4," the coming att ractions trailer for " The Avengers" was so loud that the audi· ence laughed when a title card appeared on screen offering listening aids to those having trouble hearing. Movies sound louder these days because they are being recorded louder, with every scene pumped full of noise, industry insiders say. "The directors and studios want high-impact ... sound to get your attention, " says sound mixer Steve Hawk, lhe president of the Cinema Audio Society, a guild of sound mixers that work in film and television. " We tell them, ' You 've got to exercise restraint; it 's a killer! ' But there 's not a whole lot we can do. Sound mixers are only a tool to gi•e the producers and direclors what they really want And we have to weigh the situation of employment or •nemployment " Nor will it do much good if moviegoers tell the projectionist or cinema manager to tum down the volume, says Buzz Knudson, a con- " We've seen a lot of customers for "Saving Private Ryan " who served in the war," says Joe l Gill , manager of .the United Artists Conti nental Thea tre in Englewood, Colo., a suburb of Denver.

Lasl year, cinema sound engineers, the- sultant for Todd-A-0, one of the largest sound facilities in lhc world. "Take it down to a comfon level and some of it gets lost: music, dialogue, " says Knudson, who mixed films for many years. " The dialogue will get down to a level where it won 't be intelligible. " Filmmakers now can record explosions and gunshots much louder than dialogue , thanks to hiss-free and distortion-free digital sound. As a result, Knudson no longer goes to ater operators and lhe major stud ios got logelher to discuss trailer •olume and develop a standardization procedure. One result of that discussion: a soundtrack loudness meter, whic h Dolby. Laboratories introduced at the Cann es Film Festival. The meter enables sound mi xers to easil y monitor the subjectiv e loudness of trailer and film soundtracks as they arc being prepared. Unlike the level meters normall y used for soundtrack mixing, the Dolby Model 737 moni - the movies. " I'II probably get fired for saying entire length of a trailer or film . The this, but it's all right," he says. " I've been fired before." Theater managers can try playing the films a bit more quielly, but they risk the studio's wrath . varying sensit ivily to sounds in different parts of the hearing range. William Kartozian, president of the National Association of Theater tors loudness over time - for. th e unit also mimics the human ·car's Owners, praised Dolby for "embracing the issue. " But that embrace means little if filmmakers stay at ann 's length. "Armageddon" producer Jerry Bruckheimer, for example, likes his movies as loud as he can make them. That's realism, he says. " An asteroid is loud, " Bruckheimer says. "Explosions are loud. All th e noises associated with an aclion mo•ie are loud. If you do it right, lhese sequences will be as loud as possible without being distoned. " In some of these sequences, you have 250 sound-effects tracks running, so il really can get loud," he adds. "The most important thing is for the audience to be able to hear the dialogue.. .. You want to make sure the audience can hear what the characters are sa ying. So when you have people talking o•er all that noise, that makes things even loudcr. " How loud? The decibel level in an action movie like · " Armageddon" can easily range from 95 to I 05 dB, according to the Sight & Hearing Assoc iation in St. Paul, Minn., a nonprofit organization that works to prevent unnecessary vision and hearing loss. By comparison, a motorcycle or power saw is 95 dB, a you the louder, the better.

Ironically, those young adults are the ones filmmakers are trying to reach by pumping up the volume. " Young males 19 to 24 go repeated times to a movie, like a concert audience," Hawk says. "They 're the core movie going group." And many young men will tell 'Dr. Quinn' takes a big hit from NFL Recent films with decibel designation By DENNIS HUNT USA TODAY Movie loudness can easily be tested with a digital sound meier. In a typical movie theater equipped with digital sound, a sound meter that registers sound as loud as 126 decibels showed that non-action and dialogue sequences generally fall into the 80-85 decibel range. Action sequences, though, jump into the 90s and occasionally top 100. Here's how some current movies measured: • " Armageddon " was the loudest, registering 105-110 during action sequences. The meteor shower at the start of the movie hit 106, the rocket-ship blastoff was 107, and one of the many explosions was 108. When the asteroid blows up at the end, the meter hit 110. • In "Godzilla," when the monster was on the rampage, the level was 96-104. The bombing of Madison Square Garden registered 104. • The action sequences of "Lethal Weapon 4" were consistently noisy, frequently hitting 95-103. Many crashes and explosions topped 100. The opening of the movie, with crashes and gunfire, registered 100-102. • During explosions and battle scenes, "Saving Private Ryan" was in the 97-99 range. Relatively quiet f6r a war movie. • Cop thriller "The Negotiator" and action adventure "The Mask of Zorro, " both of which feature shooting and explosions, registered mostly in the low 90s. The coming attraction clips, or trailer.;, were louder (no surprise since ihey have only a few minutes to grab viewers' attention): • "Enemy of the Slate, " a Jerry Bruck.heimer movie starring Will Smilh due out in December, was the loudest, topping out at 105. • " Without Limils, " a track movie about Steve Prefontaine due in September, jumped up to 103 at its peak, with the crowd noise. • "The Avengers," opening Aug. 14, peaked at 102 and was consistently in the high 90s. • " Antz," a computer-animated tale due Oct. 2, often registered in the low 90s - loud for ant chatter. • The Wesley Snipes action movie " Blade," due Aug. 21 , hit 101 -103 fiv e times. • The thriller " Dead Man on Campus," due Aug. 21, often hit the 95103 range.

Men 35 and younger "weren't watching anything on CBS over the lasl four years. We lost that group entirely," he says. Even David Letterman's woes were blamed on coughing up foot· ball. His ratings peaked in 1993, when "'Late Show" promotional Jenny Robertson ready for spot on CBS sitcom By JOHN KIESEWETTER The Cincinnati Enquirer Jenn y Robertson thought she was prepared to answer any question about " Maggie Winters," her first TV sitcom, at her fi rst ever press confe rence. Honestly, she didn 't expect to be asked: ''So do you look forward to hav ing many babies?" "' Me? No!" replied the actress, · who is single and childless. The question came up at the TV .critics' Summer Press Tour recently · in Pasadena, Calif., because Robertson, 34, plays Maggie's best friend, the mother of lhree children. Faith Ford (Corky Sherwood on " Murphy Brown") stars as the title character in the CBS comedy premiering in September. "That was an odd question, wasn't it?" Robertson says after the CBS press conference. " I hadn 't thought about that one. " But she didn 't mind. She was Just happy to be there. Happy to have landed her first network series, after not making it on three previous pilots. Happy to have an acting job after the frustrating grind of Hollywood audi tions since moving to Los Angeles from New York 13 months ago. And she was thrilled ·to have made the breakthrough to comedy from th e serious drama she had done, starting at the Actors Theatre of Louisville (Kentucky) after gradualing from Northern Kent ucky University in 1986. The Cincinnati native made her feature film debut 10 years ago in "Bull Durham," as the flirtati ous Millie. She has a feature film , ·· A Cool, Dry Place," due out this fall, in which Cincinnati native Todd Louiso plays her lover. Sh e also has starred in " Heart of Dixie," " Family of Spies," Danielle Steel's "Message from Nam" and the Lifetime cable remake of "Notorious." " I can cry, so they cast me in anything where you have to weep and be depressed. I know it 's going to be good for me to be doing this happy stuff, as opposed to a Da nielle Steel miniseries where every day I had to cry over 10 differenlthings. It kind of gels to you after a wh ile." She won the part of Robin Foster bctausc ''Maggie Winters" creator Kari Lizer wanted "people who can act and make a c haracter hum or- ous, " instead of " sitcom ac ti ng,·· the actress says. Robin, a happily married character with a famil y (ages 4. 2 and new born), represent s the dream li fe for Maggie, wh(} slinks home to tin y Shelbyville, Ind ., to start over again after a messy divorce. Quality Furniture Plus male audience was greater than that for "Dr. Quinn." Touchdown' '"Early Edition' should have the same sort of appeal to the ' Dr. Quinn' viewers as ·Dr. Quinn ' did. It's a family show, a feel-good show," Moonves says. So CBS cut "Dr. Quinn " without waming. "We were all stunned," Seymour told TV critics last month . Seymour says she was interested in CBS' "Dr. Quinn" movie, though waiting to see a script. Apparently, she's hoping that CBS will be flood · ed with more letters from fans after "Dr. Quinn " reruns start airing on Pax TV, the new seventh commercial network, to be launched Aug. 31.

"These arc very brave Americans, you know, who have undertaken a job as diplomats representing our coun· try, .. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said Sunday. "A Jot of people have the wrong image of diplomats. They think they go to parties ..... (But); they are on the front lines every day." With the U.S. Oag Oying at half· staff, Albright planned to address diplomats and other State Department employees today, three days after nearly simultaneous blasts ripped through the U.S. embassies in Nairobi, Kenya. and Dar es Salaam, Tan· zania. A dozen Americans, all in Nairobi, were among more than 200·people killed in the bombings, which injured several thousand, mostly in Nairobi. as bystanders on busy streets were hit by Oying debris. The bodies of the dead Americans are t~ be flown home at midweek, Albright said. . Among them was Julian Bartley, consul general in Nairobi, and his son, Jay,. a 20-year-old San Diego university student who had · been working with his father during the summer. Bartley's daughter, . Edith, expressed pride in her father's 24 years of diplomatic service in the Dominican Republic, Colombia, Spain, Israel, South Korea and Kenya. She also asked for privacy for her family. "This is a very difficult lime," the University of Missouri law student said Sunday in a statement she read outside State Department headquar· ters, "On behalf of my family, I would like to extend my deepest and heartfelt condolences to all family members worldwide who lost a loved one or were affected by the horrific bombings."

"It's retirement It's a rest home," said Gerald Abney, a 56-year-old career convict from Akron serving time for drug trafficking and burglary. Despite being the nicest prison Abney has seen, there is sull a gnm reality within its walls. "This is the last stop here." he told The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer for ~ story Sunday. "There's body bags waiting on some. There 's some who will never walk outside that fence again." The oldest inmate is 87. About half are sex offenders. The rest are there for crimes ranging from drug o~~~~to~m~urder. The average age is 58 . The medium-secunty prison is a quiet institution atop a steep hill sur· rounded by woods. Progr~ms include memory -sharpening techniques , counseling in death and dying and a new lecture titled "What Every Man Should Know About His Prostate." " I've gotten letters saying. 'Please, Warden, let me come here. I'll be a good inmate," ' Warden Janis Lane said of those who want to leave Ohio's other prisons for the quiet of the Hocking. Older inmates normally behave better in prison if thev are left alone. "Many older offenders don't want to be bothered with the whipper· snappers out there who run their mouths too much," said Reginald Wilkinson, head of the state's prison system. Even if the older men - a num· ber of whom work prison jobs train· ing pilot dogs for the blind and reha· bilitating abused puppies - are more than inmates, officials can't forget they committed serious crimes. "It doesn't take a Jot of energy to pull a trigger. You don't have to be young to sell drugs or molest chif· drcn." Lane said. The older inmates, many career convicts who have done time at otli· er Ohio prisons, say Hocking has the best medical care, best food and nicest staff of any prison. The prison also is remarkably safe.
