"We have to have a well-managed Depart·

advocate for the state in Washington, and sought
input frol!l local producers on future state and
federal regulation relating to tobacco and the
development of megafarms that are coming
under increasin&amp; environmental scrutiny.
Local producers, awaiting fallout from
potential legislation and settlements with the
tobacco industry, told Taft that some farmers
would like to shift away from tobacco growing.
But tobacco generates up to a third of Gal·
lia County's income, and farmers want to
know what help is available on the state and
federal level. if they do switch their fields to
other products, such as peppers.
"It has a definite, hard-core impact on
southern Ohio," said Matt Saunders, whose
210-acre Clearview Farm produces tobacco
along with hogs, com and soybeans. "A lot of
farms have been paid off with tobacco checks."
Taft said the emphasis is on discouraging
teens from starting smoking, and not endanger
producers' livelihood.
"I support your right to do that, and your '
concerns should be addressed in any kind of
settlement," Taft said. "I want to express these
views to the state's attorney general."

Coalition lawyer: school building aid falls short
NEW LEXINGTON (AP)- Nine of the 17 school districts
asking voters for more money to fix or replace buildings will
be left empty-handed unless the Legislature comes up with
another $200 million, a state official conceded Friday.
The Ohio School Facilities Commission has $140 million
available to pay the state's share of the next eight construction
projects on a priority list, Randall Fischer, the agency's executive director, said under questioning in Perry County Common
Pleas Court.
However, the commission got approval this month to give
17 districts the go-ahead to put a bond levy on the Nov. 3 bal·
lot. The projects total $340 million, with the districts required
to come up with part of the money, FiM:her said.
"What happens if the General Assembly doesn't appropriate
$200 million?" asked John Birath, a lawyer representing a

coalition of districts challenging Ohio's school funding system.
"I cannot imagine a scenario where that would happen,"
Fischer responded, though he conceded that it was theoretically possible.
The question of how well the state has addressed the prob·
lem of dilapidated and unsafe schools took center stage on the
last day of the state's defense of its response to an Ohio
Supreme Court order to fix the way public education is funded.
The Ohio Coalition for Equity &amp;Adequacy of School Fund·
ing, which represents the more than 500 school districts that
sued the state, was expected to begin its case Monday before
Judge Linton Lewis Jr.
The Supreme Court left Lewis, who first ruled in the case in
1994, in charge of overseeing the state's response. The high
court cited the condition of schools in its March 1997 ruling

that declared the funding system unconstitutionaL
Fischer, however, said he was surprised at how few school
districts reported "true" emergencies - such as crumbling
walls- when the state solicited applications for an emergency
repair program.
Birath countered that building contractors hired by the state
have expressed concerns about the condition of some schools,
including many that lack smoke detectors, adequate emergency
exit lighting or sprinkler systems that are required by state
building and fire codes.
"Would you want your nieces and nephews to go to school
jn a building without smoke detectors?" Birath asked.
"I want them to go to school in a building that is safe," Fis·
cher replied, noting that the two are not necessarily the same
thing.

A man. of 'strong influence' on Gallia County's legal community
Fellow attorneys, associates recall life of William P. Cherrington
By KEVIN KELLY
nmea-Santlnal St.rr
GALLIPOLIS - A practicing attorney for over six
decades and a dominant force in Gallia County's Republitan organization, William P. Cherrington was remembered by his fellow allofiiCrs and associates as a "strong
influence" on the locallepl community.
"I probably owe wherie I am to Mr. Cherrington. He
was of great help to me when I first came to town," said
Gallipolis Municipal Judge William S. Medley.
. Cherrington died Friday in Holzer Medical Center at
the age of 86.
,
The Gallia County native, whose father, Henry W.
Cherrington, was also a noted attorney, began practicing
1.-v after his ~raduation from therUniversity of Michigan
Liw School m 1936 and solidified the family's standing
~n the lepl community.

His late daughter, Sue Moulton, was an attorney, and
son-in-law Tom Moulton is in his fourth term as Gallia
County probate judge, a position Cherrington once beld.
Another son-in-law, D. Deans Evans of Gallipolis, practices law, and Cherringlon's grandson, Tom Moulton Jr.,
who passed the bar in November 1997, practices in Gallipolis and works as an assistant prosecuting attorney.
"It's been an unbelievably strong legal family,"
observed Medley, who's been on the municipal bench
since 1993. "Mr. Cherrington, along with the late John E.
Halliday, was definitely one of the leaders of the legal
community here and had a very strong influence upon it."
"One could talk a very long time time about Bill, in
my estimation, because he had a very positive impact on
our profession and and the members of the party," added
attorney David T. Evans, a candidate for the Fourth Dis·
trict Court of Appeals.
.

Evans agreed with Medley's
assessment that Cherrington was a
helpful influence on new attorneys.
"Ail you had to do was ask," he
said. "Bill would never tum his back
to you or say no to you. He will be
missed very greatly by all of us."
Active in the GOP, Cherrington was finance chairman for the
local organization for many years
and was known as "Mr. Republican" for bis efforts on the party's
Cherrington
behalf. Family members have carried on the tradition,
also working for the party and its candidates.
"I remember him as always being there to talk to,"
kaid Connie Hemphill, the county's GOP chairwoman.
"He was always there for us and backed us 100 percent."

ad~~~eE::~s~ ~~~~~~~-:~.~~;~ ~~iir:.~. ~.~~:;;,
him anything but Mr. Republican for this county would·
be doing him an injustice."
·
"Bill was one of the most brutally honest people I've
ever met," added former U.S. Rep. Frank Cremeans of
Gallipolis. "He lived well and laughed often. He loved
Gallipolis and Gallia County, and because of that, be
gained a lot of respect among those of us who knew him
for his devotion to the community, his family .and the
Republican Party.
"It's going to be a very difficult to replace Bill's niche
in our party and our community," Cremeans said.
Cherrington also served as Gallia County common
pleas judge and was a Gallipolis city solicitor. Additionally, he was a director of the former Commercial &amp; Savings Bank and Gallipolis Savings &amp; Loan Co.
Services will be 11 a.m. Monday in St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Gallipolis.

Defenders want complete
data on 'Volunteer' beating
By NANCY NUSSBAUM
Auoclated Press WrHer
COLUMBUS- Public defenders have a•ked a judge to force the state
to relea.&lt;e more information on the pri~.on beating of a convicted killer who
wants to be eKeculed.
A complete repon of Wilford Berry Jr.'s head injuries, including any additional photographs, could help suppon the argument he is not competent to
drop his appeals and be executed. said Greg Meyers uf the Ohiu public
defender's office.
Berry has been dubbed "The Volunteer" because he has said he would
rather be executed than spend his life in prison. Public defenden and his family say he is mentally ill. The slate says Berry has a right to die.
Ohio ha.• not executed anyone smce 1963.
Meyers said the office in July received from the Stale Highw~y Patrol731
photos and an incomplete report mvolv1ng the September death row upnsing al the Mansfield Correctional lnslilution.
. .
111e auomeys obtained the mformallon. wh1ch mcluded photographs

.
.
"His face is just a big. red puff. It barely looks ltke Wtlford. because h1s
face is so swollen." Meyers said Friday.
Berry needed surgical implants to repair broken bones in his face. he said.
"Eversince Wilford's beating. we have asked the couns to have h1m tested to s.:e if he suffered broin injuries that further undermine his competence
to give up his appeals." Meyers said.
.
.
U.S. District Judge Algenon Marbley had not set a dale to constder the
motion tiled Thursday that also seeks any medical records not already
relea..ed.
Patrol spokesman Lt. John Born said public defenders have all photos taken by troopers related to the uprising.
. .
111e ortice of Anomey General Betty Montgomery was revtewmg the
motion. spokesman Chris Davey said.
.
Meyers said Montgomery has fought public defenders on the question of
the seriousness of Berry 's injuries.
Davey disagreed. saying .'he injuries have not been a~ issue ..
"We have been d~&gt;agreeong wnh the public defender s poSilton that the
courts have not applied the correct criteria when determining Wilford Berry's
competence." he said.
He said Berry. before and after the beating. has maintained that he wants
to drop his appeals.

Clinton's TV line
followed tried-and-true
Nixon-Reagan pattern
By WALTER R. MEARS
AP Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON -In White House acts of contrition, there's a standard
line m which the prcstdcnttakes full responsibtlity for what 's gone wrong.
Just as Prestdent Clinton dtd, before blaming political foes and Kenneth
Starr for makmg the Montca Lewmsky affair the mess 11 is now.
The responstbilny line - his, Richard Nixon 's, Ronald Reagan's sounds good, means nothing and is almost always followed by the blame
sequence. For good measure. it states the obvious: A president is elected to
be responstble for hts act10ns and those of the people he has runnmg hts
admmistrat10n
Clinton's was particularly artful, preceded by his statement that he had
truthfully answered private-life questions no American would want to
answer. He didn't use the word "sexual," although that and cover-up allegations are what this ts all about.
"Still, I must take complete responsibility for all my actions, both public
and pnvate," he said tn his televtsed allemptto close the case of his sexual
flmgs wnh the Whtte House intern.
It didn't close anythmg, desptte public opmion polls showing that Americans are fed up with the whole business and want it ended. That was so
before Clinton's admisston of an inappropriate relationshtp with Ms. Lewinsky. It dtdn't deter special prosecutor Starr then, or now.
The summons to be done with the scandal, Watergate, Iran-Contra or the
Whitewater investigation that has become the Lewinsky investigation, also
is a fixture when troubled presidents address the natton.
"Thts has gone on too long, cost too much and hurt too many people,"
Clinton said Monday night. One reason this humiliating phase of it has gone
on so long is rhat Clinton tried to conceal his relationship with Ms. Lewin ·
sky wtth falsehoods, mcludmg the indelible, wrathfully righteous denial he
addressed to the American people last Jan. 26, when he said be did not have
sexual relations with that woman.
Even in admitting that he did, Clinton mamtained that he'd been legally
accurate when he satd under oath that he'd never had sexual relations wtth
Ms. Lewmsky. He had used the quas1dental before to skirt polittcal perils,
and ts usmg it again.
Nixon in Watergate and Reagan m Iran-Contra could blame overzealous
lieutenants for what happened. Clmton can 'ttake that refuge. He can only
admit a cnucal lapse in judgment and a personal failure , "for which I am

Clinton preparing
to confront altered
political landscape
By SANDRA SOBIERAJ
Associated Press Writer
EDGARTOWN, Mass. - Pressrng an issue he hopes will dommate
fall electtons, President Clinton
ordered limited new rights for HMO
~!Ients Saturday as he braced to
return to Washington's dramatically
altered political landscape.
It was his last full day of vacation
on Martha's Vineyard and he pronounced himself eager to get back to
business. But firs~ he delighted rnindampenend tourists with a relaxed
stroll outstde Edgartown's harborfront shops- a world away from his
legal and political troubles.
Before a private audience in the
Edgartown
School,
Clinton
announced in his weekly radio broadcast that the Labor Department wi II
require federally regulated work-'
place health plans to tmplementtimely, internal processes for patients
appealing coverage denials.
"That means that 120 million
more people will no longer have to
take an HMO accountant's 'no' for an
answer," Clinton said.
Those 120 million Americans covered under such private insurance
will be ensured access to clatm-demal
re'coni,, full disclosure of appeal
rights, and no more than 30 days'
wait to hear back on non-urgent
appeals.
Urgent cao;es must be handled
within 72 hours under the new regulations.
Republican strategist Ralph Reed
dismissed Clinton's address as "more
of the same" and said his broader
health plan would raise premiums,
"throw 2 million people otT health
msurance roll&lt;. and bankroll frivolous lawsuits by his nch trial lawyer
friends."
Clinton said he was taking the
executive actron as a stopgap and, in
contra" to earlier parttsan riffs on thrs
issue, he gently nudged the Republican leadership in Congress to
approve his comprehensive package
of patient protections.
Aides said the so:called "patienb
bill of rights" is one of three or fou r
key issues idenufied m Clinton 's pnvate talks last week with Democrats.
as he took stock of his political viability and plolled to draw sharp dtstinctions .with Republicans in the
runup to November's high-stakes

election .
Nonetheless, he said Saturday:
"Last year we worked together in a
bipartisan spint to pa« a balanced
budget .... Thts year Congress must
act like that agam."
What he didn't say ts thatthts year

Auguat30, 1998 .

By SONJA BARISIC

Associated Preas Writer

MOSCOW (AP) - Boris
Yells in gathered all his strength at
the end of a tense week w deliver
a strong and unequivocal message:
I will not resign .
" I want to say that I'm not
gomg anywhere. I'm not going to
resign. I will work as I'm supposed
to for my constitutional term." he
said Friday in an interview on
national television. " In 2000, there
Will be an election for a new president and I will not run ...
Ydtsin 's emphatic denial came
after days of feverish speculation
that the president was about to
resign or be ousted a&lt; his country
plunged into a seemingly bottomless economic decline. He had not
been seen in public since Tuesday,
prompting reports that he had
already stepped down.
But the president rallied back
Friday. He held a series of meetings designed to demonstrate his
control and went on television to

squash talk of stepping down. His
aides insisted he would not bow to
oppositiOn demands to share power.
Russians . who have weathered
one cnsts after another m recent
years. were taking the latest one in
stride, too. Short lines formed outside some banks as people tried to
change rubles for doilafli, but there
was little stgn of panic.
All currency trades were suspended for a third day Friday.
Ru.sian stocks actually rose by 5.7
percent, buttrJding was very light
and deale" warned that the rise dtd
not signal a market recovery.
Looking calm and speaking
easily. Yeltsin said on national
television that he was working to
restore stability and he believed
things could be fixed . He acknowledged the crisis. especially the
devaluation of the ruble, would
mean more hard times for his people after yeafli of pnvatton.
"It would be naive to say that
we' II take some steps and people
won 't suffer," he said. "However
as president. I must say that we ' II
take every measure to ensure that
people don 't lose their savings. I
cannot promise that prices won 't
go up. but aS president I am obligated to do everything to keep it to
a minimum."

Earlier, acting Prime Minister
Viktor Chemomyrdin negotiated
with the communist-dominated
Duma, the lower chamber of parliament. seeking support for his
confirmation, which is scheduled
for debate Monday.
Chernomyrdin agreed in the
talks to Soviet-style measures to
boost state control of the economy
as part of efforts to stabilize the
economy. according to some Russian news reports. Measures includ-

ed price and currency controls and
printing money to reflate the econ:omy. they said.
But the Kremlin appeared to
back away from political compro,miSe. tak1ng a tough line agaimt a
:separate power-sharing agreement
·that would give lawmakers more
:say over Cabmet appointments
:and government pol icy and curb
·Yeltsin's powers.
Communist leader Gennady
Zyuganov said talks on the political agreement were stalled. And he
~ook the audacious move of calling
m what he sa1d were likely alternate candidates to Chemomyrdin
for the premiership: Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov. upper house
speaker Yegor Stroyev and Yuri
Maslyukov. a former senior Soviet official.
Reacting swiftly. Yeltsin and
Chernomyrdin met with Stroyev
and Luzhkov. who later said they
would not be candidates.
.. All of us have our own ambitions. but when national tnlerests
are on the agenda we will work
together and consolidate our
efforts," said Luzhkov, already a
top presidential prospect for the
2000 elections.
Under the Constitution. the
: Duma must approve the prime
: minister. If it rejects a candidate
three times, Yeltsin can dissolye the
. Duma and call parliamentary elections- an optton Yeltsin said Friday he had no plans to take .
The financial crisis began in
early summer as tremors from
· ASia's econom1c turmoil reached
· Moscow and a decline in oil prices
- Ru.sia's top export- derailed
vital reforms and sent the economy
· crashing.
Chemomyrdin. who was fired
· in March, was brought back in a
surpri se move last Sunday as
Yeltsin sought a more experienced
. leader t~ replace the youthful
Serge1 Ktriyenko and contain the
· crisis.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - After
frustrating forecastefli with its uneven
cour.;e and sneaking up on emergency officials by resuming hurricane
strength, Bonnie once again weakened into a tropical storm and spiraled out to sea.
Before moving off the Ea~t Coast,
the storm sat nearly motionless for
hours Friday. unleashing intense
winds and heavy rains directly onto
the Virginia shore.
Authorities who had closed their

Northwest
axes flights
as pilots go
on strike
MINNEAPOLIS (AP)- By the
time Northwest Airlines' 6,100 pilots
went on strike, most of their passengers were already gone.
Announcements echoed in the
nearly deserted main terminal of
Minneapolis-St. Paul International
Airport, which is dominated by the
airline. Its bars and shops were nearly deserted Friday night and most of
the baggage carousels were still.
Northwest, which accounts for 80
percent of the flights into and out of
Minneapolis-St. Paul. had been warning of the strike possibility and earlier this week canceled 400 flights
scheduled for Friday and today.
There was no indication Saturday
when talks would resume, although
both sides had said they were ready
to negotiate.
"When it broke last night, everybody made sure everyone had everyone's phone numbers," Northwest
spokesman Jon Austin said Saturday.
But he said the company had not
heard from the union, the Air Line
Pilots Association.
The union wa~ waiting to hear
from Northwest, said spokesman
Paul Omodt.
Bargaining had gone into a lOth
straight day, and a last-minute offer
was rushed to the union's eKecutive
council hours before the strike deadline of II :0 I p.m. CDT Friday.
Shortly before the deadline, Steve
Zoller, the head of the council, said
the offer was rejected.
The White House said President
Clinton would not intervene and
order a 60-day "cooling off" period
as he did last year when a strike by
American Airlines pilots wa' only
four minutes old.
Rather, Clinton "urges the parties
to stay at the table, work hard and
resolve their differences," White
House press secretary Mike McCurry said. Another White House
spokesman, Barry Toiv, wouldn't
say what factors the president took
into account in reaching his decision.
Northwest, based in suburban
Eagan. is the nation's No.6 airline in
terms of passengers carried, with
more than 54 million annually.lt controls 75 percent to 82 percent of the
airline seats into Minneapolis, Detroit
and Memphis, Tenn.
Omodt had said earlier that two of
the most contentious points were job
security and compensation.
Northwest pilots say they earn an
average salary of about S120,000 per
year. The airline says the average
salary is $133,000.
The pilots have been seeking a 15
percent raise over five yem dating to
Oct. 31, 1996, when their contract
expired. Austin said the offer on the
table would give Northwest pilots
pay rates 4.5 percent higher than
average rate earned by pilots at
American. United and Delta by 2000.
and 7 percent higher by the end of
contract in 2002.
Northwest also was offering lump
s"m payments to pilots of 3.5 percent
of annual pay, totaling $57 million.
The pilots were seeking a stock and
cash package that would be worth a
total of $152.5 million.
The strike left Jeff Simon stuck
halfway from Newark, N.J., to Seattle. where he had planned to visit
family for the weekend. He was
scrapping his trip and trymg to fly
back to Newark on a different airline.
"They've got their rea,ons for
striking," Simon said. ''I'm just sorry I got caught in the middle of it."
In Detroit, Army Spc. Daniel
Osborne, 21. of Royal Oak, Mich.,
was trying to get information about
his Sunday flight because he is
scheduled to report back to an overseas base on Monday and fem being
declared absent without leave.
"Here I am. dancing on broken
glass. I just want somebody to help
me out," Osborne said.
The airline had said a strike and
the corresponding shutdown of its
two Airlink regional feeder services
would eliminate 2,640 daily departures at 223 airports in the United
States and abroad, leaving nearly
672,000 passengefli without alternative air service during the first I0
days. Northwest already halted its
cargo service as of Thursday.

Power customefli were without electricity. The initial damage assessment

"Who would have expected it to
intensify into a hurricane?" said
Mark C. Marchbank, deputy coordinator for emergency management for
the resort city. "We expected a tropical storm with wind. To find we
actually had a hurricane wa~ a strange
phenomenon."
At 5 a.m. EDT Saturday, Bonnie
was about 635 miles southwest of
Sable Island. Nova Scotia. and was
moving northea~t about 17 mph.
Along Atlantic Avenue, Virginia
Beach's main oceanfront resort strip,

out and tree limbs lay along the sides
of the road.
Before Bonnie struck, the owners
of David's Beach Shop on Atlantic
wrote "Welcome to the Bonnie Boutique" and "O~n" on plywoodcovenng the store s windows.
Then the storm lifted up one end
of the roof and dropped it back down
inside the store, leaving a jumbled

The hype for lhe Ohio State-West Vuginia game
bas been going on for a month. Now the longawaited meeting between the No. 1 Buckeyes and
the No. 11 Mountaineers is less lhan a week away.
Even th~ugh this a nationally-televised game, the media tried to give a
boost to thts contest by exaggerating comments West Vuginia coacb Don
N~hlen ~~de on media day. Neblen said the OSU game isn't the Mountameers bt~C:SI contest of the season. After aU, "We play in the Big East."
Nehlen IS nght! It would be far more advantageous to lose to Ohio State
in early September than to lose to Temple at season's end. It's just the way
the polls work. You can be forgiven for losing to the No. 1 learn in the season opener, but a late conference Joss can be disastrous.
The pressure of this game is on the Buckeyes. They are in the driver's
seat and must keep that top ranking for the remainde1 of the season. Queslions about Ohio State's a~ility to end the season on top of the polls began
to fly as ~n as the rankinga were announced. Experts maintain that the
odds are agamst John Cooper'!; team retaining the lop spot until Jan. 4.
. Yo~ know h&lt;_&gt;W it is! If Saturday's game is close and No. 2 Florida State
wms_ tiS game 10 a rout, the Buckeyes might find themselves behind the
Sem10oles when the new polls come out Sunday night.
· Naturally, the Mountaineen will drop in the poUs with a Joss to the
Bucks, but they have the rest of the season to run the table and impress the
bowl ~mmittees. 1\ la~ season loss, however, is catastrophic to any team
that destres to wm a national championship. Hence, what Nehlen said about
Temple is correct.
Look ~~ UC~ l~t year. _A&amp;r losing two early season games, they ran
the table 10 conv10cmg fash1011. They were the best team in the rountry at
season's end. Unfortuna~ly, without a legitimate playoff system, they had to
settle for a top five ranking.
Nehlen is also correct when be says Saturday's game is an opportunity. If
tbe M~ntaineers win,_ they will rise. ~e polls and gain fufther notoriety
fo_r ~etr prog""!l and tiS players. ThiS ts lDiportant for schools interested in
w10n10g the all-tmportant recruiting wars.
The Mountaineers do boast some talent. Tailback Amos Zcreoue the
n~tion's ~bini-leading rusher from a year ago, is a legitimate Heisman 'can- .
d1date. Linebackcr_Gary S!ills could unseat Buckeye Andy Katzenmoyer for
the_Butkus Award 1f the Btg Kat fails pass any of those difficult clasSes he's
taking tn summer school.
Like Ohio State, the Mountaineers return a seasoned team for this year's
campaign. West Vi.ginia bas 15 starters from last year's 7-5 team that went
· to the Carqu~t ~wl. It's two veteran teams playing each other. We should
be the benefic1anes of being treated to a great football game.
. For me, the hype given this game is worth.two additional questions. First,
why don't these teams play each other on a regular basis? And second, why
doesn't the Big Ten forget about Notre Dame and ask West Virginia to be its
12th member?
Before Penn State entered the Big Ten, the Lions and Mountaineers were
t~ditional rivals. Now we could add West Virginia to the Big Ten mix and
Qtv1de the confer~n~. into two divisions with an SEC-type playoff format.
-~e Eastern DIVISIOn would have Penn State, Ohio State, West Virginia,
Mtch1gan State, Michigan and Wisconsin. The Western Division would
boast Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, Pu1due, Northwestern and Minnesota. Remember, this fonnat would work with all sports.
It just makes sense to invite the Mountaineers into the conference. If they
are fortunate enough to beat the Bucks, it might become a reality.

decision
to Athletics
ST. LOUIS (AP) - A rare outburst from Marte McGwire turned the
Sl Louis Cardinals' game against the
Atlanta Braves on Saturday into a
sideshow.
The usually unflappable MeG wire
wa~ ejected for arguing a que~ion­
able called third strike in the first
inning, mis.~ing a chance to add to his
total of 54 borne runs and drawing a
noisy demonstration from a sellout
crowd of 47,627 at Busch Stadium in
a 4-3 loss to Atlanta.
Manager Tony La Russa also was
thrown out by home plate umpire
Sam Holbrook. Cardinals pitching
coach Dave Duncan wa~ tossed by
Holbrook after the Braves batted in
the second.
Police were later called on the
field after fans tossed debris, and the
game wa~ halted for about I0 minutes. With two police office" walking near them, the umpires left the
field after the final out.
Tom Glavine ( 18-5) won for the
lith time in 12 mad decisions. He
allowed three hits and three runs in
seven innings. Rudy Seanez got three
outs for his second save.
Kent Bottenfield (4-6) took the
loss.
McGwire is 4-for-27 against
Atlanta this year (.148) with just one
homer and one RBI. He became
incensed after getting called out by
Holbrook on a low 3-2 pitch on the
inside part of the plate. At one point,
he fought his way around thinl-ba.se
~h Rene Lache~ann, who was
try•ng to act as a shteld.

PPHS rallies from 14-0 deficit to top Ripley, 21-14
By RICK SIMPKINS
OVP Correspondent
POINT PLEASANT - The Point
Plea.&lt;ant Big Blacks overcame a 140 deficit with 21· unanswered points
en route to a 21-14 win over the Ripley Vikings before a largecrowd at
Sanders Memorial Field Friday night
The season-opening victory, Point
Pleasant's fiN since 1993, evened the
score wirh the Vikings who claimed
a narrow victory in la&lt;t year's open·
er and also gave the Big Blacks possession of the Old Oaken Buckel.
The Bucket is a !raveling rrophy pre·
sented by the Rotary Clubs of each
city to promOie sportsmanship and
goodwill.
The Big Blacks had many heroes
on the night, bu11he young man who
made the biggesl play of the night
wa&lt; undoubtedly ,;ophomore safely
Jusrin Beckner. The Vikings. forced
into a passing game on their las! possession. were moving the ball well
against the Blacks and had the ball on
a first and 10 at Point's 26. Ripley
quarterback Steve Shockey fired one
down the middle to wide out Morgan
Clendenin, but Beckner made a diving interception at the Point six to
bring the drive to a screeching halt
and give the Blac:ks the win. "It was
very hot and humid on the field and
both teams were losing players lo
exhaustion and cramps late in the
game," said PPHS Head Coach Steve
Safford. "We were going rwo and
three deep on the chart in a lot of

posttwns because of that. The
younger kids responded very well to
this big challenge and they made
some key plays for us. Justin Beck·
ner's interceprion wa~ obviou&lt;ly huge
for us. but our scrondary came up
wilh some big plays all night. This
wa~ a great ream win," added Safford.
Orher players who stepped it up
were seniors Jamie Buskirk and
Dusty Higginbotham and juniors
Justin Dill, Joe Marcum, and Jason
Gilley. Buskirk led the defensive unit
with an interception, two passes
knocked down, three solo tackles.
and four assists. Higginbotham ran
with authority all night. going over
the 100 yard mark, and also made
·severo! key stops from his linebacker
position.
Dill, who the coaches say is the
hardest worker on lhe team, knocked
a pass down and had four solo tack·
les and four assisiS in his first varsity start. Marcum wenl over the I00
yard rushing mark and scored two
touchdowns in addition to playing
well on the defensive side of the foot·
ball. But, the player who faced the
biggest challenge and overcame the
most was Gilley. Tht junior was
making his first varsitY' start at quar·
terback. replacing the injured Brent
Rollins. and he handled the pressure
very well . Point fumbled on their
very first offensive play when an
exchange between Higginbotham and
Gilley wa~ not made and that made
the seal even honer for Gilley. But,

he overcame that to direct the Blacks
on three scoring drives later in the
contest.
"Jason G!lley played a pretty good
football game," said Safford. "He
made some mistakes, whkh we knew
he would make, but he executed our
offense very well and gave our learn
the chance to win the game. I am
very happy for him and very proud of
him."
Ripley got on the board first when
they turned Point's only turnover into
the first touchdown of the game.
Arter an impressive drive on !heir ini·
lial possession of the game slalled,
the Vikings punted to the Blacks
which gave the locals the ball all heir
own 18 yard line. Point fumbled the
ball away on their first play and lhe
opportunistic Vikings wa,ted no time
in capitalizing. Adam King. the
Vikings big fullback carried the ball
lhree consecutive times, getting sev·
en, two. and finally eight yards with
the final run putting him in the end
zone. Steve Shockey's kick made it
7-0 at the 5:07 mark of the first quarter.
The Vikings started another scor·
ing drive with just over six and a half
minutes left in the half. Tht drive
started at the Viking 37 and took ten
plays. The key play in the drive wa&lt;
a 16 yard gainer by Shockey on a
fake punt that gave the Jackson
Countians a first down al the Point
28. King picked up two on first down
and Justin Southall g01 eight more for

a Ripley first down. King then did
what he does best, running hard and
drugging players along the way. scoring from 18 yards out. Shockey's
kick made it 14-0 with just 3:21
showing on the clock.
Point needed a score, or at lea&lt;t a
confidence building drive. before tht
half and they got both. The Bi g
Blacks pullogether a I0 play. 76 yard
scoring drive thai wa&lt; capped by
Marcum's II yard touchdown run .
The scoring play. an option execuled
well by Gilley. pulled the Blacks to
within one touchdown and gave lhe
locals the feeling that they could win
the game. "Going off the field al the
half, our players were up and they
were a linle llaa," said Sall'ord. "Thai
drive in the closing minutes of the
half was huge li&gt;r us. It gave our boys
the wnlidence In win the game and
il took something out of Ripley." said'
Safford.
The Blacks scored on their next
possession. the lirsl of the sec:ond
half. 10 tic the game. Higginbotham
picked up three on lirst down and
then Marcum scampered 66 yards to
pay din. Eric Hanning. who converted all three extrJ point kicks, lied
the contest at 14.
The winning drive. a 10 play 69
yard effort. used up the final minute
and a half of the third quarter and the
first four minutes of Ihe fourth . The
biggest play of the drive was probably one that could have turned the
game around for the Vikings. The

Clay wears down Wahama 28-14 in opener
ByGARY CLARK
OVP Correspondent
CLAY · The Clay County Panthers
dominated in the trenches lo overcome a 14.0 first half Wahama lead
Friday evening on their way to a season opening 28-14 Little Kanawha
Conference victory over the visiting
Mason County squad.
Clay County limited the Bend
Area team to a mere 48 yard~ in total
offense over the final two quarters
while exploding for 21 fourth period
points to spoil the Falcons bid at a
season opening win for the second
stmight year.
"We simply ran out of gas," fourth
year Wahama coach Ed Qomley said
Following the setback. "It's hard to
play 14 kids in this heat and humid·
ity against a team that wa~ as large as
Clay County," Cromley added. They
were so much bigger than we were
and they used that to their advantage.
They just kept beating and grinding
il out on us and in the end that took
irs toll ."
· Sophomore tailback Tim Hodge
scored two touchdowns and a two
point conversion while running for
Ill yards on the night lo lead the
Panthers to the season opening tri·
umph. Another sophomore. quarterback Jason Tucker. completed seven
pa.-es on the night for 100 yards and
·~ iouchdown but the ditTerence clearly lied in the Clay County frontline .
• "Clay County is a pretty good
·foothall team," Cromley stated.
•"When we were fresh we were win·
ning. but our lack of depth proved lo

be the difference. We played hard bur
we were forced to go to our benc:h
with kids that don't have much expe·
rien~-e just yet."
Wahama came up with a couple of
key interceptions to halt Panther
scoring opportunities in the first half
as Joe Finnicum and David Tennant
picked off passes on successive
series. Both times the Bend Area
team capitalized on the Clay County
turnovers lo launch Falcon scoring
drives.
Following Finnicums' pick at the
WHS 31 the White Falcons marched
69 yards in 10 plays for the games
first touchdown. Tennant capped the
series with an eight yard gallop on the
first play of the second period and the
senior followed the scoring run with
the extra point kick to stake Wahama
to an early 7-0 advantage.
On the Panthers next series Clay
County marched deep inside Wahama
territory before Tennant picked ofT a
Tucker pa.~s at the 14 and returned the
interception to the Falcon 44 yard
line. Once again it took the White
~Icons 10 plays before completing
the 56 yard drive with Tennant burst·
ing throughout the line from three
yards out. Tennant's PAT boot gave
Wahama a 14-0 lead with 2:41
remaining in the half.
Clay cut the deficit in half before
the second quarter came 10 a close as
Andy Butcher returned the kickoff
back to the Panthers 45. Seconds Iat·
er Clay County took to the air with
Tucker hitting Jacob McColley for a
I 0 yard gain before linding J.R.
Harper on a 33 yard sc:omg toss.
Andrew Taylor kicked the point after
to make it a 14-7 con lest as the first
half came to a conclusion.
Both teams ground it out through·
out 1he third period but once again

· At the 16th - Firestone's famed
.625-yard signature hole known as
·"The Monster"- Woods hit a 350y~rd drive. Then. as the gallery ·
massed along the ropes urged him to
go for the green in two, he pulled out
a 3-wood.
. He flew the ball 285 yards. clearing a greenside trap and landing in
heavy rough ofT the back left comer
of the green. From there, he chipped
15 feet past and two-putted for anoth·
er par.
"To be honeS! with you, I really
wasn't happy," Woods said. "The
fans were happy. but they were the
only ones."
Woods said he may have made
mistakes with his hands and hips. but
not with his head.
"I've hit the ball better and putted
better," Woods said after finishing at
S-under 135. "But I'm sc:rambling
really good right now, thinking
around the golf course. The la~t two

ing threat. Grant Huff ret:overed a
Panther fumble at the Falcon 18 to
preserve what wa' becoming a slim
WHS edge.
Hodge then sel the stage for the
remainder of the game when on the
third play of the final canto broke
three tackles on his way to a 31 yard
touchdown run. Taylor's extra point
kick sailed wide of the uprights a~ the
White Falcons lead was trimmed to
14-13.
Two minutes later McColley
picked ofT a Ryan Russell aerial and
returned the interception to the
Wahama seven where Taylor bulled
his way into the end zone for the goahead score. Hodge ran the two
point conversion and for the first rime
of the evening Clay County had the
upper hand at 21-14.
The Panthers put the game away
with its final touchdown on an eight
yard Hodge run with Taylor concluding the nights scoring activity

with his PAT kick to make the final
tally 28-14.
"Although we failed to come up
with the victory there were some
bright spot~." said Crom_ley. Tennant
made some nice runs without much
help from our blockers and our
receivers made a couple of good
catches. Also our younger people did
a decent job in spots considering this
was their first varsity action for the
aitost part."
Tennant led Wahama on the
ground with 63 yards in 16 carries
while Ryan Russell connected on
four of II passes for 59 yards. Beau
Gerlach and Brandon Hankinson
came up with a couple of spec:tacular receptions in addition to the
defensive play of Tyson Reitmire,

While Andy Katzenmoyer may be
the most high profile of !he Ohio
Stale !football players in academic
jeopardy heading into !he slarl of the
1998 season. he definitely is not the
only one wh~ polential absence
could spell !rOuble for the number
one ranked learn in the nalion. Teammates Rob Murphy and Damon
Moore also had to take summer
classes lo bring their GPA's up to
snuff.
All you Ohio Slllle fans will have
to wail until Sep. 4 to find out if all
three make the cut and will suit up
against Famotis Amos Zereoue and
his West Virginia Mountaineers next
Saturday.
The po!ential absence of Murphy
and Moore raises some real concerns
for John Cooper's bunch. Murphy,
rated as the top offensive guard in the
country by Lindy 's magazine and
tabbed as a first team All-American
in several oilier publications, is the
anchor of the 0 -line. Moore, rated a.~
the fourth best safety in the nation, is
the key player in the Buckeyes'
defensive backfield.
The loss of Murphy and Moore
could outweigh a successful academic summer for the Bil! Kat.

As for Katzenmoyer: !he native of
Westerville has come under severe
scrutiny for the "gravy cla.~ses" he
has taken this summer in order to
raise !he CPA to the required 2.0. I
wa.~ one of the early critics, but have
since jumped off the Kat-bashing
bandwagon. Here's why.
An athlete the caliber of an Andy
Katzenmoyer doesn't go to college
just to get a degree. Like it or not, the
youngsters that have the potential use
college as a jumping off point to the
pros.
If the Nationai ...Footbaii...League
would take players straight out of
high school, I'm quite certain that .
Katzenmoyer, Randy Moss and oth- :
ers in that elite category of super ath- '
leleS would by-pass the college ranks.
However, the NFL, unlike its baseball, basketball, hockey and soccer
brothers. doesn't provide a fast trnck
for kid~ to make that jump, yet. And
I'm glad.
So budding football stars, whose
undeclared majors are NFL, have to
spend at least a year or two at the
institution of higher education of their
choosing, or which gave them the
best recruiting deal, before making
the leap to the big show.
In regard to the type of classes
Katzenmoyer enrolled in for the
summer, no .one said he had to take
advanced calculus or survey of geophysics to bump up the GPA . He just
need to pass a certain amount of
hours. Period.
Katzenmoyer is certainly not the
first college athlete, nor will he be the
last, to enroll in "gravy classes" to
help boost the GPA to stay eligible.
It happens at colleges big and small
across this fair nation every year.

The Division of Watercraft offers the following
do's and don'ts:
• Do wear a life jacket. Life jackets float. You
don't.
• Don't overload the boat with too many
passengers or equipment.
• Do observe the nautical rules-of-the-road.
• Don't mix alcohol and boating.
• Do keep a good lookout when unde~ay.
• Don't stand in a small boat, but do keep a,
balti~Jpad. .., ., . . . ,
.1
• Do check the weather report before getting underway. Bring a radio to regularly
check the weather forecast.
• Don't ride on the gunwales, bow, seat
backs, or anyplace where it is not designed
for riding.
• Do take a boating course to learn the
rules and safe boating practices.
Tim Barnhart, owner of Marine Services,
Syracuse, with over 18 year of experience in
· repairing recreational craft, offered the fol. lowing safety tips, some of which mirrored
. the Division of Watercraft's recommendations
"Keep your life jackets on board, have
extras for everybody.
"Make sure you have a charged fire extinguisher on board.
"Make sure that any equipment you install is
marine equipment."
When a fuel pump or carburetor of the type used
on vehicles fails when installed on a boat, it can fill
the bilge with gasoline, resulting in a fire or explosion, he explained. Similarly, automotive starters and
other parts can create sparks that may ignite trapped
gasoline fumes, turning a boat into a bomb.
Don't neglect maintenance, l)e remarked, recalling
: an incident earlier this summer when the motor on
: · pleasure boat broke down in front of towboat.
·
"He almost got ran over," he said.

POMEROY- Summer's last hurrah, Labor Day is
fast approaching, guaranteeing (weather permitting)
an Ohio River jampacked with boats, large and small,
slow and fast.
The Labor Day weekend marks the traditional end
of. the summer boating season and one of the year's
busiest times on Ohio waterways. But that's no reason
to Jet common sense and safety take a holiday,
according to the Ohio Department of Natural
Resources Division of Watercraft.
Operating a boat is at least as complicated as dri.ving a car, and a boating accident can be just as dangerous as an automobile accident. Waterways are second only to highways when it comes to accidental
deaths with drowning comprising the leading cause of
recreational boating fatalities, according to the Divi sion of Watercraft.

REMEMBERING DIANA
It was after her August 1996
divorce from Charles that Diana
lost her HRH, a point that rankled
for the remaining year of her life.
That resentment was one of the
many contradictions of the woman
whom her brother, Earl Spencer,
called "the unique, the complex,
the extraordinary and irreplaceable
Diana."
She often dispensed with formal
protocol and identified with the
world's disenfranchised. but was
angry at losing membership in the
very select royal club. She repeatedly aired her contempt for her husband, but wanted to remain married
to him. She was a devoted mother
and fiercely protective of her sons,
but made the marriage failure public in a way that could only bring
them pain.
It was her brother who warned
right away against the public
instinct to tum Diana into a saint.
"There is a temptation to rush to
canonize your memory," he said in
his Sept. 6 eulogy at Westminster
Abbey. "There is no need to do so.
... Indeed to sanctify your memory
would be to miss out on the very
core of your being."
On Aug. 31, when people around
the world stop to think about Diana,
many will remember her as they
knew her- a mischievous sister, a
hard-working charity patron, a
demanding employ~r. a loyal
friend, a dedicated follower of fashion, a dazzling dinner companion.
And regiments of ph"tographers on
every continent will remember
Diana the chameleon. flirtatious
and elusive, the ultimate quarry.
Far more people will be remembering a woman they never met.
They are free to remember the
Diana they wanted her to be.

Klansmen were drawn from disgruntled miners, bootleggers and
other malcontents.
Much of the Klan's anger in
southern Ohio in the 1920s was leveled against Catholics and Jews,
more than against black people.
In fact some Klansmen intimidated people not to buy from any business run by Catholics or Jews.
According to some Klan publicity,about 85% of the members they
recruited in southeastern Ohio were
already members of the various fraternal organizations that had been
around for many years.
In I 923 some American Legion
chapters denounced the Klan as "unAmerican", but later softened the
stance when it became known that
the KKK had infiltrated the Legion
as well .
A recovery of the economy
beginning in the mid-1920's seemed
to have taken away some of the
anger that fed into the Klan's dramatic rise to prominence.

Williams stays busy, would like to see more color-blind casting
By MARSHALL FINE
Gannett Suburban Newspapers

The soda glass full of frothy pink
smoothie seems out of place amid
the symphonic shades of blue that
cover Vanes.'a Williams from head
to, well, toenail.
· The lipstick, sweater and top mix
s~ades of periwinkle and the bluer
side of violet. The high heels look
like lapis-colored lizard skin. And
the fingernails and toenails are a
tropical aquamarine.
The shoes - the right shoes Williams is saying, are the key to the
kind of ballroom salsa dancing she
so energetically performs in "Dance
With Me," her newest film.
"The key is the ankle strap,"
Williams explains, silting in a dark
lillie private chamber walled off
from the roar of Manhanan 's Planet
Hollywood . She's visiting the
restaurant this day to donate- what

else? - a pair of the dancing shoes
she wore in the new film .
"The strap keeps the shoe on and those three-inch heels are the
uniform for competitive Latin and
salsa dancing," she says. " You also
need to worry about the toe - you
need an open toe. And it's all still
very strenuous on the calves.

"And then, of course, there 's
always the chance, while you ' re
competing, that you 'll run into
someone or injure yourself with
your own heel. That's all just part of
the war. And believe me, it's a war."
In the film, Williams plays Ruby,
a former ballroom champ now
teaching at a small Houston dance
studio but dreaming of a return to
competitive glory. To prepare for the
part, which includes several performances that are supposed to be part
of an international championship
competition, Williams rehearsed the

dances for eight weeks.
"Some of the other dancers in the
film were ballroom profcs.•ionals,
some were married and have been
dancing together for years,'' she
says. " But, you know, dancers work
harder and get the least amount of
gratitude on film or on stage. People
don't know how strenuous and taxing it is until they're OQ the other
side. You can't phone it in, you've
got to push through the pain."
Even as Williams touts "Dance
With Me" as a possible breakthrough for movies about dance
("Certainly there's a market; maybe
this will change things"), she admit•
that she hasn'I seen many of what
are considered classic contemporary
movies about dancing.
" I never saw 'Saturday Night
Fever' and I saw 'Dirty Dancing' on
cable,'' she says. " I don't think I
saw 'Footloose.' The only one I did

see was 'Flashdance,' which I saw
when I was in college, as a theater
major. I had a very critical eye
because they had dance doubles. I
was disappointed that one person
was not doing the whole thing, when
I knew all kinds of people who were
triple threats."
At this point in her career,
Williams herself can legitimately be
ca lled a multiple threat: platinumalbum-selling singer, competitioncaliber da ncer, Hollywood movie
star, Rroadway musical box-office
draw. concert performer - and
that's not to mention her TV specials
and production company.
It 's a long way from those days as
the first black Miss America - and
even farther from her subsequent
resignation from the title when nude
photographs of her were published
in Penthouse magazine.
" It was chaos - tumultuous,

'Fools' entertaining if not all-telling
By MARSHALL FINE
Gannett Suburban Newspapers
Seeing "Why Do Fools Fall in
Love " made me want to run out and
buy a CD of Frankie Lymon and the
Teenagers' greatest hits.
This raucously entertaining,
sometimes sloppy film bio of early
rock 'n · roller Lymon conveys just
how energetic and invigorating a
performer Lymon was. Though it
glosses over too many pertinent
details, it still suggests both the
excitement and the sleaze connected
with those early days of rock 'n' roll .
Directed by Gregory Nava, who
also helmed the stilted biopic "Selen~ ." "Why Do Fools Fall in Love"
blends story-telling elements from
much better films to create an
impl ausible but juicy romantic mystery. The film 's strength may be that
story-telling form , which puts the
focus on the women in Lynion's life,

as a way of defining Lyman.
The film's present is 1986. A
resurgence of interest in Lyman's
biggest hit, " Why Do Fools Pall in
Love," thanks to a cover ver.;ion by
Diana Ross, brings three women out
of the woodwork. They all claim to
be Lymon's widow and all seek a
portion of his estate.
Zola Taylor (Halle Berry) met
Lymon (Larenz Tate) when both
were stars in one of Alan Freed 's
package tours, he with the
Teenagers, she as a member of the
Planers . Their romance blossomed ,
though her career was on the rise
and his quickly plateaued, then
tailed off.
Elizabeth Waters (Vivica A Fox)
was a small-time thief who accidentally met Lymon as she was about to
be busted for shop lifting. He helped
her out of a jam, then made her a
part of his life, which now included

Disco's staying alive, but
it's not because of '54'
By JACK GARNER
Gannett News Service
The disco-era drama. "54," is
'"Boogie Nights - Lite."
True, "Boogie Nights" was about
the '70s porno industry, while "54"
is about a famous '70s diseo club in
Manhattan .
Nonetheless, the story 's the
same: A young guy with limited
prospects trades on his good looks to
achieve success - of sorts - in a
decaden t world of easy sex, abundant drugs, and shallow dreams.
The look 's also the same : Clinging polyester, tight bellbolloms, glitter and spangles, and platform heels,
all lit by swirling lights, reflected off
a mirrored ball.
And the music 's the same: The
o.h-so-bland beat of disco, the
absolut e low point in the grand
panorama of American music.
I'll be honest - I can't possibly get
nostalgic about the disco scene. If a
movie on the topic is going to get me,
it better offer more than fond remembrances. "54" does, but not a lot.
The other movie that relates, of
course, is "Saturday Night Fever, "
of which " 54" is a superficial shadow. There's also " The Last Days of
Disco," an ove rly talkative variation
from earlier !his year.
In other words, as disco sagas go,
we've been there, done that.
(Interest ingly, the chief disco
movie made during that era 1977's "Saturday Night Fever" remains hy far the best of its kind.
And " Fever " director John Badham
worked wi thout the 20 years of additiona l pc r ~pcctive thJt 's been available to the creators of the more
recent film s. )
"54" details the story of Manhattan 's hottest spot in the late '70s,
Studio 54, a ballroom in a former
broadcast center at 54th Street and
Eighth Avenue. It was operated by
tbe free-wheeling, Brooklyn-born
entrepreneur Steve Rubell , weiiP.Iayed by Mike Myers.
- To tell the tale, writer-director
llilark Christopher concentrates on
three employees on the low rungs of
the 54 ladder. They're busboys
Shane and Greg (Ryan Phillippe and
Brcckin Meyer) whose idea of the
big time is to be named a bartender.
and Greg's wife, Anita, a steamy
coat-check girl (Salma Hayek) who
dreams of being disco's next Donna
Summer.
" 54 " is ftarrated by Shane, a
Brookl yn teen-ager who sees the
club as salvation from his dysfunctional family after spotting pictures
of club-hopping celebrities at 54 in
the newspapers. After securing a
sexy, cu rled hair cut and an open-tot~e - n ave l shirt , Shane talks his way
into "54," and quickly impresses
Rubell with his eagerness - and
11unky looks.
Shane befriends Greg and Anita
and shares their tiny M a nh atta~

collapses under the weight of all that
excess, and the IRS raids Rube II 's
out-of-control books.
Christopher, though, fails to give
"54" a point of view - just when
he seems ready to condemn the
scene as a latter-day Sodom and
Gomorrah, he starts to wax nostalgic
for the days when Truman Capote
and Princess Grace hit the dance
floor with the other beautiful people.

- and it was 14 years ago," says
Williams, 35, as though forced to
confront her past and put it behind
her yet again. "The press loves to
dredge it up. It 's part of me. There's
no sense in getting angry or defensive. It's part of me, part of my life."
Rather than succumb, however,
Williams turned inward, to her own
strength and that of her "family. She
refashioned herself as a singer and,
within four years, had her first hit
album. She has gone on to record
several more, as well as starring for
nine sold-out months in the Broadway musical "Kis.• of the Spiderwoman."
Yet she still has to fight preconceptions that go back more than a
decade - stemming fro_m a stereotype she never imagined for herself:
former beauty queen.
"People think anyone with a title
can't be smart or talented," she says.
"As though wearing a crown
negates intelligence and talent It
makes it that much harder to gel
ahead. People still stereotype. Look
how successful Cameron Diaz is and
they still refer to her as 'former
model.'"
Williams also runs into color barrier.; -less in terms of discrimination
than in casting directors' inability to
see an African-American in a role in
which race is not an issue.
Williams points to her part in
" Dance With Me " and the one she

Then she tells of talking to her

"They came back and said that
the producers didn 't want to go

It was a much larger undertaking
than they initially thought. They

By JENNIFER L BYRNES
GALLIPOLIS- If you were lucky
enough to get your corn out in April
or May, and it survived the water of
the spring, then your crop is probably maturing rapidly due to the
warm, dry weather of the closely for
the optimal stage of harvest. Ensiling
corn that is too wet produces poor
fermentation . seepage losses, and
lowered animal intake. Ensi ling corn
that is excessively dry increases the
risk of heat damage and molding.
Traditional ensiling recommendations have been to harvest com for
silage when the mil kline is l/2to 213
of the way down the kernel. However. according to Sulc, new studies
shown that at 1/4 milkline, com is at
30-40% dry matter. which generally ·
provides good fermentation and animal performance. Position of the
milkline can be used in practical field
situations to determine when the
crop is close to the optimal ha111est
stage. However. for optimum performance. harvest decisions should be
based on the whole plant dry matter,
which can vary from the kernel milkline. Hybrid, planting date, and grow·
ing season can affectt)le relationship
between kernel milkline position and
the whole plant dry mauer content.
Therefore, those who are interested in
the best possible harvest time should

consider submiuing a sample for testing with a commercial forage mois ture tester which determines whole
pi ant dry matter.
The storage structure must also be
included in the equation . The recom mended dry matter content for
upright , top unloading si los is 3040%. For the few with horizontal
structur&lt;s, the required dry matter
content is 30-35%, which will ensure
adequate packing to eliminate oxygen
and prevent heating. Upright, bottom
unloading structures require dry matter concentrations of 40-45% to
ensure ea.&lt;ier unloading. Keep in
mind that waiting until the blacklay erdevelops will almosi always result
in com being too dry for proper packing and fermentation, especially in
horizontal and upright, top unloading
silo•.
Producers who are planning to
store grain instead of ensi le corn
should begin thinking about preparing the storage bins for the fall harvest. The first rule in on-farm grain
management is never store new grain
on top of old grain. Therefore, preparation generally includes cleaning out
the grain from the past season, so that
you can begin with a clean, empty
bin. With above nonnal temperatures.

the pest infestation that developed in
the bin over the year may be higher.
After thorough cleaning of the bin,
consider using an insecticide to protect the stomge space. Remember that
Malathion is no longer registered for
use in stored grain. which presents a
problem for many producers. By law,
leftover Malathion containing the
old labe l maY, be used according to
label recommendations until the
product is gone. When on-farm supplies of Malathion are used, it is
advised to use a properly labeled
product such as Reldan or Methoxych lor, to protect the storage bin. For

Our chimney is 4-feet wide.
A: A cricket (also called a saddle)
should solve the problem. Whenever
the width of a chimney located along
the slope of a roof is more than 2 feel.
a cricket should join the roof and
chimney. Tlie cricket prevents debris
or snow and ice from piling up
behind the chimney. This can cause
rain or melting snow to back up under
the shin~les and leak into the house.
The cric"'kel also deflects water running down the roof around the chimney.

kinds of weather, in all parts of the
country. so is a feat that demonstrates
great concentration, dtscipline, and
ability. His safety record significant-

ly contributes lo DARTs record as a

Lush green leaves of kale, lettuce

Two steps taken now ensure a lush

more slowly as the days shorten in

seeds, sown every week, supply crisp
radishes for salads well into fall, perhaps winter. So-called winter radishes are varieties that grow 10 enormous
sizes. then can be stored all winter.
The advantage of sowing winter
radishes now is lhallhe roots will not

grown in the fall are a delicacy sweet and crisp.
Many leafy vegetables can also be

mulch, giving salad greens before any
spring-sown seeds have even stirred.
Other good fall greens are arugula,
leaf mustard, and corn salad (also
called mache, feuicus and lamb's lettuce, but delicious under any name).
Sow kale and parsley for eating in
the dead of winter. Kale is among the
most cold hardy of winter greens, its
leaves staying in good condition
even under snow. Parsley seed sown
in pols makes a nice edible houseplant when grown on a sunny windowsill .
Now lei's turn 10 the weeds. Lazy
days of summer have given weeds
the opportunity to inch their way into
the garden. Weeds will compete with
your fall vegetables and flower.;.

MEDINA (AP) - In this politically a•tute county southwest of
Cleveland where voters have cor·
rectly picked the last I0 governors,
there is only one question many voters have about thi§ year's gubernatorial race so far: Who's running?
Of the 24 registered voters from
Medina County interviewed for a story in The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer
Sunday, only three could correctly
name Democrat Lee Fisher and
Republican Bob Taft as the two
major party candidates. None could
say what either candidate stands for
and only a few could give early
impressions of the candidates.
"I have no clue who's running."
said Christa Waldow. a 23-year-old
college student.
The one time agricultuml county
that is now a fast-growing Cleveland.
suburb is one of six counties to correctly pick the winner in the last 10
governor races. The others are Clark.
Columbiana. Geauga. Richland and
Stark counties.
Republicans outnumbers Democrats in Medina County by about 3
percent, bul more than half of the

72,160 registered voters are i ndependents.
Voters are not worried yet they
have not spent too much attention to
the race.
"I vote for the person, not for the
party, so I' II bone up on the candidates eventually," said Bill Roberts,
a 51-year-old Republican from
Brunswick. "Nobody 's really oul
there yet. and I haven't had the time
to follow it anyway."
"No one is paying attention to the
governor's race because everyone is
focused on Bill Clinton and his problems." Waldow said.
The campaign commiuees for Taft
and Fisher were not surprised that
only a few people could identify the
candidates.
"People focus on statewide elec·
tions after Labor Day." said Alan
Melamed, Fisher's campaign chairman. "That's what they've traditionally done."
The fact that voters could not
identify the candidate.~ hurt.~ Taft

But Taft spokesman Brett Buerck

Once voters hear or see the name,
he said, "They 'II have that recall."
More of the voters interviewed by
the newspaper did recognize Taft's
name more than Fisher's.
"Taft is who I'd vote for today, but
I really don't .have a strong opinion
