WELCH USA Today WASHINGTON - The stock nwlr.et's recent volatility has dumped a heavy dose of reality on the debate over whether to add per.;onal investment accounts to the Social Security ~y, tem . There's no good time for a bear market, but Wall Street's decline even partially offset by last week's gains - could hardly have come at a worse time for those who want to reshape the national retirement program to include market investments. '" It's like a dash of cold water on the debate," says economist Robert Reischauer. former director of the Congressional Budget Office and a leading opponent of privatizing Social Security. " It will wake people up to the risks as well as the opportunities of investing through private accounL<." Rep. Mark Sanford, R-S.C.. a leading advocate of privatization, agrees that the market turmoil makes the debate much more difficult than it was three months ago. ··A lot of people have never seen a bear market ." Sanford says. "They've been in a one-way ride for the la.<t 10 years. and that's not real· ity:· Sanford and other advocates of pulling a part of Sucial Security into private accounts say the marlcet is still up over the long term. And. they say, dips like this are to be expected and don' t change the financial rationale for investments. But the decline comes ju.o;t months before President Clinton plans to a.o;k Congress to join him in corning up with a plan to overflaul Social Security in an effort to en"'lre its future solvency and improve returns for today's workers. Until now, advocates of privatizing a part of Social Security seemed to be winning the debate. With Wall Street enjoying a roaring bull mart.et that peaked in mid-July. polls showed Americans liked the idea of control- ling liOI1Ie of their Social Security payroll taxes in slo.:k or bond investments. Clinton acknowledged the power of the privatizets' arguments at a forum on Social Security in laleJuly.

The company announced Friday thai it has tentatively agreed to settle a class-action lawsuit that could ben· efit million for an estimated 650,000 customers. ··we think it is a fair settlement," Nationwide spokesman John Millen said Friday. " It puts the potential for litigation behind us." The lawsuit was filed against Nationwide and one of its companies, Nationwide Life Insurance, in New York State Supreme Court in Febru· ary 1997. Policyholder.; claimed they were misled when they bought one of several types of life insurance policies sold by the company from 1982 through 1997. New York auomey Marc Gross said. The court gave tenUJtive approval of the seulement Aug. 20 and anoth· er hearing is scheduled for Dec. 17.

Nova Scotia (AP)Divers have retrieved Swissair Flight Ill's Oight data recorder despite an emergency that endangered their lives, but experts say the "black box" contains no information from the final six minutes of the doomed night. CrJsh investigators had high hopes after the data recorder was recovered from the ocean floor Sun· dny. But laboratory examinations on Monday revealed that there was no data from the last minutes right before the MD-II jumbo jet plunged into the sea off Nova Scotia late Wednesday. killing all 229 people aboard. Vic Gerden, the chief cra~h investigator, said the·data recorder"stopped once the plane dropped below 10.000 feet altitude.

The Balair/CTA Airbus A-310 was on a Hight from Zurich to Vancnuver via a scheduled stop in Halifax with 144 passengers on board. SAirGroup spokeswoman Beatrice Tschanz said in Zurich.

In Halifax on Monday, Gerden said the dala recorder from Swissair Flight Ill was in good condition and should provide useful evidence about 100 types of information ranging from altitude and airspeed to whether the plane's smoke warning lights were on.

Davis scored twice. but finished withjust75 yards on 22 carries. well below his avernge of 117 yards last season when he Jed the AFC with 1.750 yards. Davis burned New England for 154 and 171 yards the last two times they met, and the Patriots were determined to reverse the trend. They did. but turned Elway loose in the process.

The Patriots, however. had burned all three of their timeouts because of miscommllnication in the third quarter. and Denver rnn out the clock. His teammates and opponents marveled at Elway's sustained excellence in this. his 16th season. "They threw some looks at him that we didn't ~o over (in pre~nme pnoparation)." Sharpe said. "bul John kept making big-time throws. I'm glad he's back. Hopefully. he'll come back for two or three more year;." El11•ay's 44-yarder to McCaffrey was an m·enhrow that McCaO'rey had to dive to catch: othrrwise. it would have been a touchdown . "That was probably the only mislake John made." coach Mike Shanahan said. "Not that it was a bad mistake when it goes for almost 50 yards." Patriots coach Pete Carroll said Elway "was resourceful and made stuff happen when he had to. We put some pressure on him and he escaped. He was all over the place. Forget how old he is." The Patriots now have lost II straight games to Den\'er, but at least they kept it closer than in the previous three meetings. which they lost by a combined score of 105-24.

"We're definitely going to watch Boston and Texas to see what they do. but we just have to concentrate on our game." " It just seems like everything is coming together. and e1·erybody's having a great time," he added . Alex Gonzalez went4-for-4to tie his career high in hits.

By DAVID FOSTER Aaoclated Pna Writer NEWPORT, Ore. (AP) - The fans are growing restless, but the star makes them wait. Ten minutes, 15 minutes pass. Aip-flops shuffle on the concrete floor. Babies wail, but nobody leaves. "Here he comes! " someone finally shouts, and camcorders leap to shoulders as the long-awaited one glides into view. Nodding his head with quiet assurance, he notices a little girl near the front and sidles up to the window between them. Then he sticks out a tongue the size of a ham and wags it. The gallery erupts in laughter. Cameras flash . Keiko, the world's most famous killer whale, has charmed yet another audience. Millions of children know him from "Free Willy." the 1993 boxoffice hit that made this 5-ton orca a big name in Hollywood. He became even better known when word spread that Keiko, unlike the killer whale he portrayed, didn 't ·get to swim free at the movie 's end. He was seriously ill, held captive 10 a cramped. tepid pool at a Mexico City amusement park. Airlifted out in January 1996 and nursed hack to vigor at the Oregon Coast Aquarium here in Newport, he 's now being coached for his most challenging role yet- transforming from Keiko the charming performer to Keiko the ruthless predator. This Wednesday, weather permitting, an Air Force C-17 will fly · Keiko back to his home waters off .the coast of Iceland. There, he will shuck the celebrity he has known for most of his 20 years, trading it for a remote sea pen visited only by his trainers. His benefactors hope the pen, 60 percent larger than his pool here and exposed to ocean currents and noise, ·will be a halfway house for Keiko's .eventual release into the North Atlantic. But despite a S12 million investment, they say there's no guarantee that Keiko will ever be ready for life in the wild. Setting a· captive orca free has never been tried, and nobody is certain that good intentions won 't pave Keiko's road to a watery hell. He 's in good health, but ques- lions remain: Will this whale hunt? Does he want to? What makes Keiko happy, or can an orca even know what happiness is? It all seemed so simPle in the movie. lbreatened by a villainous amusement-park owner who tries to kill him for insurance money, Willy escapes to the open ocean with the help of a boy named Jesse. A happy ending for all - especially for Warner Bros., which grossed S78 million from the film . Keiko's real-life story, while not so tidy. is no less dramatic. Captured in 1979 ofT the coast of Iceland as a whale no more than 2 years old, he was shuttled to aquariums in Iceland and Ontario, then sold in 1985 to Reino Aventura, an amusement park in Mexico City. There he performed several shows daily for II years, in a pool that seemed increasingly cramped as he doubled in length to 20 feet. His native Icelandic waters were a chilly, whale -friendly 40 to 50 degrees; his Mexico City pool of artificially salted tap water. could reach 80 degrees in summer. Warty lesions erupted on his flippers and tail. Sapped by the heat, Keiko spent most of his time between performances floating like a log. His back was out of the water so much that his dorsal fin drooped. By 1992, when the "Free Willy" crew arrived to start filming, Keiko was one ton underweight. Reino Aventura's owners had been trying to fin\! him a better home for years, but there were no takers for their ailing whale -until the movie was released and publicity spread about the real Willy's plight. School kids collected pennies to help save K,eiko. Warner Bros. gave more than $2 million. The owners of Reino Aventura donated Keiko to the newly formed Free Willy Keiko Foundation, which in January .1996 installed Keiko in a $7.3 million pool built especially for him at the Oregon Coast Aquarium. The pool holds 2 million gallons, nearly four times more than his old one. It's filled with fresh sea water filtered and chilled to 50 degrees. Ten trainers feed Keiko, play with him and fret over his every move and utterance. There are no performances, but visitors get to gawk at Keiko from underwater windows. He gawks right back, paying special attention to chil\lren. Keiko has gained at least a ton of muscle and blubber, so much that he has stretch marks across his belly. The unsightly warts, caused by a virus, have all but disappeared. When he arrived in Oregon, he could hold his breath for three minutes. Now he can stay under for 18. But there's more to surviving in the wild than physical prowess. and some whale experts believe Keiko's long association with humans has made him a poor candidate for release. He may look like a wild orca, they argue, but in disposition he has more in common with a golden retriever. His trainers often discipline him simply by turning their backs, withholding the attention he craves. One of Keiko's favorite rewards is to tum belly-up and get a nice. long scratch on his flippers and flukes. " If they end up letting him go, he ' II have to adapt to a very different environment. He 's not going to get his tummy rubbed, " says Brad Andrews, who oversees 20. captive orcas for Sea World theme parks and has no intention of letting his whales join the "Free Willy " bandwagon. "Will Keiko adapt? We really don't know," Andrews says. " I don 't think we should put the animal at risk by experimenting." Keiko's handlers acknowledge the risk but say it is justified. " Keiko is exquisitely cared for here, " says Diane Hammond, a spokeswoman for the Free Willy Keiko Foundation. " But his life is lacking in ways we can't compensate for. He needs companionship, stimulation. He needs to be in his world, not our world." His trainers have tried to prepare him for independence with games, problem-solving exercises and fishchasing sessions. Having dined for years on dead seafood, Keiko initially didn't realize he was supposed to eat the live, wriggling fish that were placed in his mouth. He has made rapid progress. however. A few weeks ago, he chased down his entire daily ration of fish - about 140 pounds - for the first time. A big preoccupation for parents is ensuring that children eat a healthful meal during school lunch hour. Basically, it's a question of rcc.,_ onciling the principles of nutrition·ally sound eating with the kids' craving for favorites that score heavil y in the fun -rood category.

They aren't relatives in the nonnal sense of the word, bul success at each no doubt leaves one with a big smile on one's face. On today's deal. you and your partner have overbid to a debatable slam. (Yes, all right, it's to1ally your partner's faull for opening with only II high-card poinls. But I find it hard to pass a hand with ace-king, ace. : especially when I can open in a good ; suit.) How would you try 10 bring home siK spades after Wesl has led a ·. dub, a diamond or a spade? Faced wi1h two club losers. you musl establish dummy's heart suit to supply discards. If West finds lhe annoying club or diamond lead, you will have no option but to assume a 3-3 bean split. You win with lhe club ace or diamond king, draw trumps, play a heart to dummy's king. cash the heart ace, and ruff a heart in hand. If all has passed off safely. you lead a diamond to dummy's ace, cash the five-four of hearts, discarding both your club losers. and claim all I 3 tricks. After a trump lead, though, you can handle a 4·2 hCllrt split, which is more likely than an even division . Draw all the trumps. 1hen duck a heart. Win the club or diamond return in hand. play a heart to dummy's king. and cash the ace, discarding a club. Have all the missing heans appeared? If so. claim.
