The faol~d 2000 Census, of 11
happens, woll be entirely the fault
of politicians -- and Republicans
more than D,emocrats ..
The GOP ts determoned to stop
the Clinton admtntStrallon from
conductong the 2000 Census partly
through the usc of modem statistical sampltng methods.
Census experts and the National
Science Foundation agree that the
1990 and prevtous censuses significantly undercounted the U.S. population, especially poor people and

Experts have warned Congress
that partisan wrangl1ng could

dtre· State legtslatures would be
unable to reapportton congresstonal and legtslauve distncts and
there'd he no accurate basis on
which to determone where benefits
should go Yet. the wrangling goes
on.
In the latest round last month,
the House Appropriations Committee's GOP majority voted to gove
the Census Bureau only half its
funding for the comtng fiscal year
and to release the other half next
March -- if and when Congress has
voted defimuvely on how the census should be conducted.
This was a bl~tant and dangerous move, likely to be sustained by
the full House and the Senate, to
keep the bureau from even planning to implement sampling as a

counting method
It 's important that the Census
Bureau be fully funded from the
get-go in fiscal 1999 because much
of the agency's vital preparatory
work needs to be done early tn the
year regardless of how the sampling tssue finally gets decided.
The money ts needed to hire
employees, lease offoces, print
questionnatres and buy computers.
Moreover, if there are delays in
approvtng the second tranche of
fundong next March, offices wtll
have to be closed and employees
let go, makmg a botched census all
the more likely -- again, regardless
of how th· sampling tssue is
resolved
There is a rcsponstble way to
handle the sampling issue: It is to
let the U.S. Supreme Court decide
whether the method is constllullonal, erect protecuons agatnst cheating and fully fund the Census
Bureau so that 11 can get prepared
to do a count.
It's almosttmposstblc to believe
that the Supreme Court wtll find
that sampltng v1olates the consututional dictum that the government

naires would be tllcgal .
What they must have meant tS
that the population be determined
by "real count," as opposed to
guesswork or polttical logrolhng,
which was a potential danger in the
early days of the Republic.
In those days, statistical sampling hadn't been onvcnted. Nor
had computers.
It stmply can't be that the
framers meant to prevent fully
accurate counttng, but perhaps the
Supr~me Cuurt will decide th ~.
sampling requires a constitutional
amendment. If that's the case, there
won 't be sampling tn 2000.
If the court dcc1des that sampling is OK, though -· and a dcctsion will come probably next year - Republicans wtll have no legtttmate reason to oppose the practice.
The unlikely posStbtlity that the
Census Bureau's professionals will

·Indians defeat Devil Rays 5-3
By KEN BERGER
CLEVELAND ( AP) - No wonder Cleveland Indians manager Mike
Hargrove wants to keep rookie Richie
Sexson in the lineup.
Sexson was 3-for-4 with his first
major league homer and lwo RBis as
the Cleveland Indians beat the Tampa Bay Devil Rays 4-3 Monday
night
When he trotted out to left field in
the seventh inning. Se~son sheepishly ack nowledged an une xpected
slanding ovation.
"You always see Sammy Sosa run
out to right field pumping his fisl and
stuff.'' Sexson said. "I really love the
fans here. They've stuck by us
through some difficult times here
lately."
Se~son hit a solo homer in the
fourth off Wilson Alvarez (5-12).
then had an RBI single in the sixth.
He fi,;t broke into the lineup when

Sports Illustrated co-founder,
Pulitzer Prize winner dies at 78
By SUE MANNING
LOS ANGELES (APl - Jim
Murray. the Los Angeles Times
sports writer who won a Pulilzer
Prize und a legion of funs for hi s witty. sometimes acerbic columns about
games and legends. has died at age
78.
Murray died of cardiac arrest late
Sunday at his home. Times sports
editor Bill Dwyre said today.
"He didn't talk about himself."
Dwyre said ... He used to sil al the
Rose Bowl and pray somebody
would run the wrong way so he
would have a story. He had a great
self-effacing sense of humor. Never
in 18 years did I hear him seek praise
about anything he wrole.''
Murray joined the Times in 1961.
When he won the Pulitzer for commentary in 1990. he was only the
fourth sports columnist to win a
Pulitzer. joining Red Smith. Arthur
Daley and Dave Anderson. all New

.
.. All the years I was in the busi·
: ness. I always thought PuliiZers were

though! Walter Lippmann gol

With a chuckle. he added.
" Maybe I've cost a manager a job
here or there ; maybe that qualifies."
He was inducled into the Baseball
Hall of Fame in 1987 for " meritorious contributions to baseball writing;· H~ also won The Associated
Press Sports Edilors award for best
column writing in 1984. ~nd the
APSE Red Smilh Award for career

"He not only was a greal sports
writer. he was one of Ihe greal American writers." Anderson said. "He
and Red Smith were 1wo of the great
American writers. He ·was such a
greal guy to be with.''
Murray's ability to portray all
aspects of sports- from the humorous to the tragic - earned him mil lions of readers for his nationally syndicat~d column.

MASON BALL FIELDS

By The Associated Press
While the New York Yankees are
. trying to make baseball hi story this
season, who would notice the Baltimore Orioles? The Boston Red Sox
might.
The Yankees' incredible season
notwithstanding. the Orioles have
been the hottest team in baseball
since the All-Star break with a 28-8
record. Their 3-2 victory Monday
night over the Minnesota Twins
moved the the Orioles within 6 1/2
games of the Red Sox for the AL
wild-card spot.
The Orioles once trailed Boston

by as many as I5 112 games.
" It's pretty much like facing the
Yankees - they make you throw
good pitches." Minnesota pitcher
LaTroy Hawkins said of the Orioles.
'" You're not going 10 slrike oul many
of their guys because they have a lol
of professional hitters over there."
Meanwhile. the Yankees continued to roll with a 7-I victory over the
Kansas City Royals. With a 91-30
record. the Yankees are on pace to
break the 1906 Chicago Cubs' record
of 116 wins .
"They can score very quick. Two
out. and boom!.'' Kansas City manager Tony Muser said. "They don't
really try to hil home runs. They get
something rolling and they get qual-

rotation.
"I think he views this as a huge
opportunity and he took a huge step
in that direclion," Phillies manager
Terry Francona said.
.
Byrd, 7-6 in 87 previous games tn
lhe majors with Atlanta and the New
York Mels, started on a shaky nole,
knocking off his hat during his tirsl
wannup pitch and having to stop tn
mid-molion.
But he had linle !rouble once the
game began. and did nol give up a hit
until Jeff Bagwell singled with IWO
outs in the founh.
Byrd put the Phillies ahead hO
with his IWo-out single in the second.

Dear

ADD

Landen: I had to

write about "First Wife in Wisconsin," who had been married for 25
years and then divorced, ending up
with nothing. Actually, this woman
has a nest egg in the making. It is a
little-known law of Social Securily
that pys if you have been married to
a man for at least 10 years, you are
entitled to tap into his Social Security when you retire or if you become

disabled, even if he divorces you.
I found out about this when I
became disabled years ago, but I had
only been married to my first husband for five years. If my current
husband dies or divorces me, I can
tap -into not only his Social Security
but also his veterans pension.
So, tell "'Wisconsin" to hang in

By Phillip Alder
There's mon: than one way 10 peel
an orange. (Apan from being accurale, isn't that more palatable than the
awful observation abuut a cat7) Suppose you have A-Q- ~ of a suit in your
hand and three low ,,ards in the dummy -- no useful spo15 to be seen. How
many losers do you have71f you need
to win two tricks, how should you
play7 Assume you have copious
entries in both hands.
Given that preamble, how should
one play in six spades after a diamond lead7
AI first glance, it seems that the
slam requires the heart finesse 10
work. Bu1 if East has lhe heart king,
South doesn't need 10 play a low
heart 10 his queen on the first round.
He can perfonn the necessary feat
jusl as well by cashing the ace first
"How docs that help?" you may
well ask. Well, suppose Wcsl has a
singleton heart king. II will drop. And
suppose Wcsl has a doubleton heart
king .. . read on.
After winning with his diamond
king, South drew trumps, cashed his
club winners, look dummy's diamond
ace, and ruffed lhc diamond four in
hand. Ncxl. he cashed the heart ace.
Then, he entered dummy with a
trump and called for a heart.
If Easl had the king,lherc was no
problem. And when East played low,
declarer pul up his queen. Disaster - Wesl produced lhe king. Elation -West had 10 return a minor-suit card,
which permiued declarer 10 ruff in
one hand and discard his remaining
heart loser from the other.

Beat of the Bend ...

Opening day of the 135th annual
Meigs County Fair was a hot oneand it's predicted that 11 will get
steamier as they week unfolds .
However, there wen: a lot of people on hand for opening day despite
the warmth.
· '
The first of two flower shows
was judged Monday and there wen:
plenty of entries on hand. The
senior fair building where that show
is staged needs a bit mo':f' lig~ti~g.
however The junior fatr butldtng
which ~as similar these days has

strips of fluorescent lighting which
certainly enhance the exhibits there.
Domestic arts are also auractively exhibited in the senior fair building as are the exhibits of the granges
and the schools of the county. All are
excellent so you'll want to .stop by
that structure.
·
The junior fair building occupied
by several youth organizations certainly is an:at again this year. The
many booths displaying the work of
the young people well demonstrate a
wide ranae of interest and are a positive indication of the tremendous
