From GNS.TS Reporta
WASHINGTON - Rep. Ted
Strickland, D·Ohio, said Friday it
would be an "appropriate action" fL
Congress to censure President Clinton for his conduct in
the Monica Lewinsky scandal even without the allega·
lions contai~ed in independent counsel Kenneth Starr's
report.
Meanwhile, Strickland's GOP opponent, U. Gov.
Nancy Hollister, called on Clinton to resign to avoid a
prolonged impeachment process.

had not seen a copy of Starr's report as of friday afternoon. He described himself as saddened by lhe course of
events but said that if the facts lead that way, he would
consider voting to impeach.
"I doubt if I will have time to read it this weekend,"
Strickland said. "When I read it, I want to study it.''
Strickland said he voted in favor of releasing the
report "because it's important not to let ourselves get
caught up in a partisan fight over something as serious as:
the possible impeachment of the president."
·
Hollister said the country "should be spared the
details" of Clinton's actions and that the nation has suf·
fercd enough.
"It is time for our president to show true leadership
and concern for the good of the country by stepping:
down," Hollister said.
Strickland said he "respected" Hollister's opinion,
but added, " I' m the pers()n who is~ going to have to face
this decision, and my responsibility is to be objective
and nonpartisan."
A former Methodist minister, Strickland said tha~
''Ciinron has committed a sin by my definition and his.
But the question is, has he broken the law?"
Strickland said there must be "credible evidence of
serious criminal wrongdoing" for Congress to impeacjl
Clinton.

There are tougher ones looming.
Prosecutor Kenneth Starr's repon of potentially impeachable offenses
was delivered to the House on Wednesday, JUSt a.~ Clmton was declaring
himself determined to redeem the trust of the American people.
The revoval techniques that have brought Clinton back - from election
defeats, prior accusations of sexual misconduct dissembling about his personal past. the loss of Congress to the Republicans- were on display as the
president asked forgiveness.
· Dramatic pauses, a pursed lip, a lowered, husky voice, a promise to do
better.
"I ... let you down and I let my family down and I let this country down,"
Clinton told Democrats in Orlando, Fla. " But I'm trying to make it right."
Belatedly so. Confessoon and ~ontrition might have deflected the case
politically, if not legally, when it began eight months ago. Instead, the president chose a dishonest, defiant denial.
: A real apology on Aug 17, when he confessed hos lies in a televised
address, might have avoided some of the Democratic denunciations he's
hearing now. But Clinton expressed regret, said his private life should be private again, claimed that technically he had not lied in sworn and public

The eposndc highlights the two
dcfinong features of our tax code: the
exaltation of envy and the practice of
deceit.

The system promotes envy by subjecting people to higher tax rates as
their earnings increase. President
Clinton has resisted reforming this situation in the name of "fairness." But
that is typical sleight of lip. Whal he
really means is that rate reductions
would reward men and women of
ability and diminish the federal government's power to terrorize the rest
of us.

They don't really mean 11. howev·

the picture. While lawmakers scowl at
magnates. they quoctly decorate the
tax code with loopholes that permit
men and women of means to avoid

"They have 17 people that can vole in there. so there are 17 dtfferent

The airltne has been grounded since Aug. 28, when pilots struck after
two years of failed allempls to negotiate u new contract. The tentative deal
was reached on Thursday. the 13th day of the slnke.
Even if lhe execultve board accepts the proposal , 11 would be dl least
midweek before any service is restored. If the board submlls the proposal to all its members. a vote could lake four or five days, delaying servrce even longer, Omodt satd.
Northwest has canceled all domestiC flights through Tuesday and all

He was carried away all right.
After twice being doused with water

to the middle of lhe field.
By lhen, Paterno was truly overcome wilh emotion. As he was

McGwire and Sammy Sosa, as

I have been impressed with the
class and dignity that McGwire and
Sosa have displayed while chasing
Maris. The hunt for 62 has brought
about a blossoming friendship
between rival sluggers on two of the
game's most bitter combatants, the
Cardinals and the Cubs. But both
men have been complementary of
each other and have pulled for the

McGwire. Major League Baseball
never gave Mari s the respect or
honor due him after he eclipsed
Babe Ruth 's milestone some 37
years ago. No trophy, no plaque, no

of congratulations from then-commissioner Ford Frick, who was a

To compound the indignity, Frick
even decreed that an asterisk be
placed by Maris' record in baseball 's
all-time record book .
Fast forward to Tuesday,
September 8, 1998. Following his
electrifying blast, McGwire, after
being mobbed by teammates, heads
into the stands and embraces the
Maris family members in attendance . No trophy , no plaque, not
needed.

Blue Devils... &lt;Continued fromB-3)

Baseball has finally recovered from the disastrous strike of 1994; however, it took the breaking
of two hallowed records to bring the fans back.
In 1995, Cal Ripken surpassed Lou Gehrig's consecutive game streak of
2,130 games. Last Monday, as the world watched, Mark McGwire broke
Roger Maris' record for home runs in a season. Both these events helped to
remind us fans why we love the game. More importantly, both men are genuine sports heroes.
In an age of cynicism that has produced such contemptible figures as
Mike Tyson, Michael Irvin and Steve Howe, Ripken, McGwire and Sosa are
the real deal. Parents are taking their children to the ballparks to see them
play. Just when it was thought the game was past its prime, baseball and its
fans have rediscovered their roots.
It was a touching scene in St. Louis as McGwire inched closer arid fmally broke Maris' record. Experts can now forget about who should receive the
National League's Most Valuable Player award because the nation has
already given it to McGwire. His relationship with his son, hugging Roger
Maris' family and his embracing the Cubs' Sammy Sosa made us all feel
good about the game and each other.
Last Sunday, Fox interrupted its coverage of the NFL to show a game
between the Cardinals and Reds. These two teams were a combined 43
games out of first. The last time footbaiJ was superseded on any network was
the famous Heidi game 30 years ago. The NFL even played the Sunday after
President Kennedy was assassinated. Fox spent a billion dollars for the right
to broadcast NFL games. But MeOw ire 's chase was so significant it surpassed everything else in the sports world.
How many fans knew Jeff Gordon won his sixth race in seven attempts?
No one cared about the U.S. Open in tennis. MeOw ire occupied center stage
throughout America.
Unlike other sports, baseball's history and tradition are sacred to its fans.
As a young boy, I was taught the importance of the game's records and its
stars. Babe Ruth was a giant.lY Cobb its most competitive player. The numbers 714, .424, 60, 56 and 511 were as important as Bible verses.
Then came Roger Maris and expansion in 1961, and everything changed
in baseball and America. The Dodgers and Giants were on the west coast and
baseball, like America, entered the modem age. Afterward, it was conceivable that all records could and should be broken.
First, it was Maris with his 61 home runs. Roger was unfairly treated for
breaking the Bambino's record; however, whenever you destroy a legend,
you are apt to receive great criticism. Hank Aaron discovered that in his
· quest for Ruth's careerrecord of 714 home runs. Even today, people remember Hank hitting 715, but some fans don't realize he hit 755 for his career.
It seems that 755 will never have the hallowed sound as 714. The ghost
of Ruth still haunts the game. Rest assured, when Ken Griffey Jr. breaks
Aaron's record in the next eight years, he will receive the same sort of regal
treatment as McGwire.
Hank will be happy to see his record broken, but envious of the treatment
given to Griffey as he closes in on 755. Griffey Jr. won't have to worry about
death threats or mcist letters.
In the past 37 years, almost all of the most important records that I
remember from my youth are gone. Maury Wills surpassed 1Y Cobb's season stolen base record when he stole I 04 bases in 1962. Twelve years later,
Lou Brock broke that record and Cobb's career mark before his career
ended.
A few years later, Oakland's Rickey Henderson shattered both these
marks. Local fans remember Pete Rose passing Cobb's hit record. Aaron,
Ripken, Koufax, McGwire, Nolan Ryan ... the list goes on and the records
fall.
Records are the beauty of baseball. It forms a link, a common bond
between the game's storied past and uncertain future. That's why McGwire 's
62nd home run captivated the world this past week.
Baseball and its fans owe Ripken and McGwire a debt of gratitude for
reminding us of the game we love. More importantly, the players and owners need to remember this next time they contemplate a strike or lockout.

with a 70-yard drive in seven plays
with Keeney scoring from the two at
the II :34 mark of the second period. Keeney also ran the two-poi nt
conversion to make it 16-8.
Devils make threat
After an exchange of series,
Gallipolis received an opportunity to
score midway in the second half
when Ron Haynes tossed Miller for
an eight yard loss on a fourth down
play.
T.R. Rogers got 13 yards in two
trips . then Payton hit Rogers with a
nine-yard strike. After moving to the
Hornet 34 for a first down, GAHS
was penalized for delay of game.
Payton then passed for an apparent
first down to sophomore end Jeff
Mullins on the Hornets 20, but officials ruled a holding penalty against
the Gallians, wiping out the gain and
threat. Payton then punted the ball
dead on Coal Grove 's six. The
Hornets advanced to their own 47 as
the second period expired.
Penalties costly for GAHS
In the third period, Coal Grove
took the kickoff and drove 83 yards
in 12 plays with Mader scoring from
the one at the 6:10 mark. A run for
the extra points failed . It appeared
GAHS had stopped CGHS twice on
the drive, but a 15-yard face mask
penalty and five-yard motion penalty
against GAHS kept the home team's
march alive.
Minutes later, Josh Klaiber intercepted a Payton pass and returned it
13 yards to the Gallians' 21to set up
another Hornet score. Miller tallied
from the seven five plays later to
make it 28-8. then passed to Tra\ is
Waulk for the extra points.
After forcing a Coal Grove punt
to start the fourth period, GAHS
marched 71 yards in seven plays
with Payton scoring from the one at
the 7:38 mark. A run for the points

Symmes Valley. rebounding from
. a Iough loss agatnsl Trimble, is now
1-1. Eastern is 0. 2 against two tough
opponents.
Veteran Viking head coach Herb
Conley said, "Overall. the kids put
forth a super effort. The kids are
working hard and we're just trying 10
gel ready each week. Our offensive
line did well and the backs block
well for each other."
After spending another winter of
bulking up. the Symmes Valley line
knocked some huge holes in the
Eastern line. making way for two
Vikings to post 100-yard ground
games: Brad Carpenter 117 yards
and Jason Lyallll-10~ .
Eastern head coach Scot!
Christman said, "We had drives
where we looked good. then we'd
make a mistake and kill our drives.

Defensively we played Iough for
two quarters. First a broken play
killed us, then a good return set up
their second score. They only had 20
yards of offense for much of the first
half. Jus! long plays killed us."
"This week, we've just got to
keep our heads up and hopefully
keep kids practicing well. We still
have to work hard on fundamentals,
staning today . We also have to work
on making the option work for us
bener."
Eastern fought to a scoreless first
quaner deadlock, pulling an exclamation point on the fact the young
Eagles played a solid first quaner.
Brad Carpenter broke that string
however early in the second quaner
when he broke a 45-yard run. Jon
Adams added the kick for a 7-0
score. A long punt return by
C81]lCnter set up a 20-yard drive that
ended on a four yard C81]lCntcr run
with an Adams kick that pushed the

score to 14-0 jUst before half.
. Early in the third, Carpenter
Jaunted 10 yards to pay dirt and
Adams kicked the extras, 21-0.
Moments later, Noah Henson ramhied 34 yards for a touchdown, followed again by an Adams kick, the
score 28.().
Jason Lyall and Chad Ross added
founh quaner scores of eight and 16
yards respectively. Carpenter added
the two point conversion on a pass
from Jon Adams, then a run for the
last extra's failed to keep the score
42.().
.
Late in the game, Adam Sanders
rambled 90-yards for an Eastern
score off the quarterback option.
The EP run failed to account for the
42-6tally.
For Symmes Valley , Carpenter
was 11-117 yards rushing, Jason
l,.yall was 11-108, Henson 5-86,
Adam Neace 7-19 and Chad Ross 116.

For Symmes Valley, Jon Adams

Home schooling allows
parents to teach their children
the basics and a lot more
Tlmti-Senllnet Staff
POMEROY - School bells are ringing, lunches
are being packed and homework assignments are
being completed as !he new school year gets underway in earnesl.
But as most students board bu ses or start on the
walk to school , other students are beginning their
school year in the comfort of home, under the
watchful eye of one or both paren ts.
Home schooling is a !rend thai is gaining momentum across the country, and while the trend is yel 10
catch on at the same speed locally as il has across
the country, il is an option growing in popularity in
the local community.
The reaso ns for leaching students al home are as
many as there are students. II appears !hal most parents leach their children al home for religious reasons, feeling that the secular teachings of !he public
school are in connie! with the religious beliefs
taught at home and in the church, and the government has sided with these parents, acknowledging
their right to teach their children.
"We are all uniquely made," said Pam Beaumear
of Pomeroy, who has !aught lwo children, one of
whom began college this fall . "We all have different
reasons for doing this. For us, the Lord told us thai
we should teach our children at home, so we did."
Home schooling parents do not fil a narrow conservative mold. While !he lack of a Bible-based curriculum in public schools motivates some parents 10
home school their children, other parents cite discipline, peer pressure and moral issues as their reasons for pulling their children out of the public
school classroom and leaching them al ~orne.
The grandmother of an adolescent boy left in her
care because of a difficult family situation chose to
home school the child because she felt that he could
be beller nurtured at home.
For one home-schooling mother, !he decision to
home school was made because her child experienced discipline problems at school, which caused
his grades to drop. Now that he is learning al home
under his mother's watchful eye, his performance
·'lies improved to "B's. •

Reflections of a homeschool mom
By Catherine Hamm
nme•Sentlnel Staff
For three wonderful years, I had the
privilege of homeschooling my sons. I
started out with my oldest son Nicholas.
He was going into fourth grade and the
prospects of another dismal educational
year was looming ahead.
Nicholas has severe learning disorders
- he has visual and motor memory deficiency and is dyslexic. He cannot always
recognize leiters and words and sometimes
forgets how to even write his own name.
He is very bright and copes very well with
his limitations. His father and I taught him
that God made him with hrown hair; and,
learning disordered. No big deal - just
modifications in his life.

MOtion sickness and jet lag
apparently arc the unwelcome companions of many U.S. travelers.
Some 40 percent of U.S. travelers
experience symptoms of motion
sickness, according to a recent survey by Martel Data Inc. of Arlington, Ill.
1be International Travelers Clinic at the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee reports lhtt up
to SO percent of airline passeegers
experience some degree of motion
sickness when encountering turbulence.
Jet lag appears to be even more
pervasive. A recent .study by the
Union Company reponed that as
many as 94 percent of long-distance travelers e~perience jet lag.
and 45 percent consider their symptoms severely bothersome.
The good news is that motion
skltness and jet lag are typically
temporary, and you can take steps
to minimize their effects.

Motion Sickness
Motion sickness is caused by a disturbance in the inner ear. The

Jet Lag
Jet lag occurs when you travel by
air across three or more time zones.
The time-zone cbanges confuse the
body's internal 24-hour cycles
known as "circadian mythms...
"Once you get to your destination, your body just isn't ready for
it yet," says Logemann.
NASA estimates you need one
day for every time zone crossed to
adjust to the new environment:
In the meantime, you might
e~perience
fatigue, tnsomnia,
headaches, bowel irreguhtrity and
light headedness.
Such symptoms can be worsened by the stresses of ni!hl. such
as dehydration , lack of sleep, poor
nutrition and alcohol as well as the
climate. diet and other changes
experienced at your destination.
The World Health Organization
reports that jet Ia! may reduce your
body 's resistance and ·make you
more susceptible to " traveler 's
diarrhea." which the organization
says affects up to 50 percent of people who travel each year.
The direction you travel is key to
how you e~pericnce jet lag, health
professionals agree. Traveling east

owner of New York City Market in
Des Moines, Iowa. " It's effective
for any SIOII18Ch stress. including
motion sickness."
Ginger comes in a variety of
forms. including supplements,
chewable wafers and candied
chunks. Health and nutrition specialists suggest taking two 500-milligram capsules albout an hour
before your trip and one or two.
more capsules every four hours
while traveling.
Diane Lahodny, owner of Camp·
bell's Nutrition Center in Des
Moines, says many of her customen prefer candied gi'lger. "You
can munch on the candy whenever
you feel (nauseated) ...the (advantage!_is you digest it immediately,"
she says. "It's also convenient to
pack."
There also are ginger-based
products specifically geared to
motion sickness.
Motion Mate is a capsule supplement that also contains peppermint, vitamin B-6 and other ingredients. Another product. Ginger
Trips, is a chewable wafer.
This spring, Cirrus Tecllnologies
introduced NoQueez Softgel Capsules, a drug-free product whose
main ingredients is ginger. Other
ingredients include peppermint oil,
spearmint oil and vitamin B-6. The
company says the capsules are sold
at Wal-Man and Walgreen stores.
However, you should call individual stores before shopping.
Peppermint also is known to
soothe and calm the stomach. A cup
of peppermint tea before you leave
or iced tea taken with you in aThermos can help relieve blotion sickness. says Lahodny. Some travelers
also find that sniffing a tissue with
peppermint oil on it helps, she says.
Also available are bands, such as
the brand Queasy Aide, that travelers put on their wrists.
These are designed to stimulate
the acupressure points that help
relieve nausea and motion sickness.
Acupressure uses pressure to stimulate what Chinese medical practitioners call "chi," the body's basic
healing energy.
In addition to various drug and
non-drug aids. you can take other
steps ·to prevent or reduce motion
sickness:
- In a car, sit in the front seat
and look at a distant, swionary
object, such as the horizon. This
stable reference can help minimize
the effect of changes in the inner
ear.
- In an airplane, sit in a seat
over the wings, which has the least
motion.
- Do not read while traveling.
- Avoid strong odors and spicy,
heavy or greasy foods immediately
before and during travel.
- Do not drink alcohol before
and during travel. It funher confuses communication between the
inner ears, eyes and brain.

Sleep disorders may explain some
youngsters' poor grades in school
CHICAGO (AP) - Youngsters
who do poorly in school may be suffering from a severe sleep disorder,
and surgery can help these children
bring home better grades, according
to a study.
Sleep apnea - and the poor academic performance it causes - can
be cured by removing the tonsils and
adenoids, Dr. David Gozal, a profe~
sor of pediatrics at Tulane University, reponed in the September issue
of the journal Pediatrics.
Apnea, the severest kind of snoring, is a condition in which narrowed airway, cause people to stop
breathing briefly as they sleep. This
causes them to wake up, sometimes
hundreds of times a night, and often
leaves them feeling tired the ne~t
day.
In children, signs of apnea
include hyperactivity, a short attention span and aggressive behavior,
all major hindrances to learning.
Tonsils can obstruct the airways,
and Gozal said doctors have long
known of the connection between
tonsils and children 's abilities. In
1889. for e~ample, the British Medical Journal published a study titled
" The Awkwardness and Stupidity of
Children With Large Tonsils "
However. no good clinical studies had documented the connection,
said Gozal. who decided to investigate funher when the parents of
children who underwent tonsillectomies reported improved grades.
Gozal questioned the parents of
nearly 300 first -graders whose
school performance was in the bot-

whether their children snored and
how loudly, and whether they
stopped breathing during sleep, had
to be shaken awake or fell asleep

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome was found in 54 children, of

'Gone With The Wind' just one of many movies at The Colony

big days in the history of the
-Colony Theater in Gallipolis. On
:!hOse dates the movie "Gone With
~ The Wind" showed there .
:-: · Seat prices were high- $I . I ~ fur
: \tie 8 p.m. showing: 75 cents for the
·daily 2 p.m. matinee and 75 cents fur

stur"'' were n:scr\'cJ . The -a,·cra~c
rricc for "llcndin~ most other
Ato,ics at the Colony in 1940 was
·~

;~bout ~5 cents.
. · . Thc ad m the GallipoliS Daily

Trihune that announced the coming
of "Gone With The Wind " stated that
the version to be seen in GallipoliS
. was exactly the version seen at the
movie's premiere at the Atlanta Fox
' Theater on December 15. 1939.
. The long awaited movie was the
most expensive one to produce to

.. . .

• t~at point in American history.

David 0 . Selznick for three years .
had been using the Hollywood gossip columnists to beat out tbe rumor
that be was going to make "Gone
With The Wind" . Selznick followed
that up with a nation wide search for
an actress to play the part of Scarlett
O'Hara. Even before the movie was
linishcd nearly 57 million Americans wanted to sec the movie.
In the early pan of 1940 Gallipolis citi1.cns had driven many miles to
other towns and cities tn sec "Gone
With The Wind" . By the time it
came to Gallipolis it wa.' estimated
that hundreds of local people had
already seen the movie. hut they
wantc&lt;.lto sec it a~ain.
In the 1939 Oscar awards show,
"Gone With The Wind" wa.' nominatcd for 13 Oscars. The movie won
in 8 categories including best picturc. best actress- Vivian Leigh, best
supporting
actressHattie
McDaniel. best director-Victor
Fleming. best screenplay, best color
cinematography. best interior decoration, alld best film editing.
Unfortunately there was not as
hig a tum-out for the Colony's showing of the movie as expected. It was
just too pricey for a people still coming out of the Great Depression.
In addition there had been a lot of

good movies at the Colony already
that year. Among classics that
showed bere in early 1940 included:
"The Doctor Takes A Wife" with
Ray Mill and , Spencer Tracy in "Edison the Man" . "The Grapes of
Wrath" with Henry Fonda and
directed i&gt;y John Ford who won the
1940 Oscar. The Colony also
showed another movie based on a
John Steinbeck novel. "Of Mice and
Men" .
Then there were the less artistic
but very popular regular movies:
Cisco Kid(Cisco was played by Caesar Romero then). Gene Autry.
Charlie Chan, The Three Stooges,
Dead End Kids, Bowery Boys.
Zorro, Blondie and Andy Hardy.
Gene Autry's sidekick Smiley
Burnette had appeared in person in
Gallipolis in 1938 thus making the
Gene Autry movies popular among
those who had touched Gene's sidekick. By 1940 cowiloy movies had
been equalled in popularity by gangster movies.
The Colony in early 1940 showed
of this genre : "Mutiny in The Big
House". "Brother Rat". and "The
Roaring 20s" with Jimmy Cagney.
Then there were movies by Bene
Davis ("The Old Maid"), Jimmy
Stewart ("The Shop Around The

Comer"and "Nc~t Time It's A
Date"), Clark Gable ("Strong
Cargo"and "Test Pilot"), and
Spencer Tracy ("' Take This
Woman").
Coming to town in late spring
were such films as: "Star Dust" with
John Payne, "Farmer's Daughter"
with Martha Raye and Charlie Ruggles, "Dr. Kildare's Strange Case"
with Lew Ayres and Lionel Barry·
more and "It All Came True" with
Ami Sheridan.
W.O. Fields and Mae West's "My
Little Chickadee" played bere the
last of March, 1940. Then there
were these other classics: "Buck
Benny Rides Again" with Jack
Benny. "Swanee River" with Don
Ameche and AI Jolson . And in January of 1940 the 1930 classic movie,
"All Quiet On The Western Front"
came to the Colony. The movie had
played the Gallipolis Theater in the
preceeding decade.
In 1939 and 1940 several great
movies played area theaters includ·
ing: "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington", "Stagecoach". "The Wizard of
Oz", "Wuthcring Heights", "Foreign
Correspondent". "Our Town",
"Rebecca", and "The Philadelphia
Story".

Fall '98 is bringing two films
about tiny fellows with big hearts,
and their effect on troubled , conventional-sized friends. This week,
"Simon Birch" beats "The Mighty"
out of the starting gate.
"Simon Birch" is loosely adapted
from John Irving's highly regarded
novel, "A Prayer for Owen Meaney;"
so loosely, in fact, that it bears the
unusual credit "inspired by ... "
Writer-director Mark Steven
Johnson has boiled down Irving's
sprawling, 600-page tome to concentrate on one year in the central
character's life.

Womack certainly crammed a lot
of living and perfonning into his 54
years. His performing career began
at the tender age of 9, when gospel
band the Womads (Bobby and his
father and brothers), opened for Sam
Cooke and the Soul Stirrers. Once
Cooke and Womack had given up
gospel music, they began a fruitful
collaboration. In addition to fronting
the family band (renamed The
Valentiaos), Womack played guitar
with Cooke. In return, Cooke
financed Womack's first albums.
The Valentioos turned out such
R-and-B classics as "It's all Over
Now" (later a mega-hit for the
Rolling Stones) and "Lookin • for a
Love" (made most popular by the J.
Geils Band).
Through the late •60s Womack

'Rounders' deals an entertaining bluff
By MARSHALL FINE
GenMtt Suburban Newapapers

.J've always wanted a secret life,
like people have in the movies. But
I've never been able to pull one off.
Neither, I believe, have any of my
friends.
:I could be wrong about that. Or,
p&lt;:rhaps, the whole secret-life deal is
ju~t a younger man 's game- like in
"Rounders," the new film by director John Dahl (" Red Rock West,"
"The Last Seduction").
Who could look younger than
fresh-faced Matt Damon (except the
perpetually
dewy
Leonardo
DiCaprio)?
• No one, which is why Damon is
wholly credible as a New York guy
wjth a double life: law student by day,
hish-stakes poker player by night.
- "Rounders" is awfully entertaining for what is, in the end, a formulajc gambling movie. At its best, it
becomes a hard-charging hybrid of
" l.!ean Streets" and "The Cincinnati Kid." But it tips its hand too
early, while occasionally pushing
ttie limits of the preposterous.

That's because, in the movie's upstaged Harvey Keitel's Charlie in

graphic violence, n11dity) Two and
he needs to gamble for his life.
It should be noted that gambling, one-half stars (fair-to-good). Law
like drinking and drugs, can be a
serious addiction, one that ruins
lives. Nowhere, not even in the
speeches by Mike's angry girlfriend
Jo, is this fact ever stated or even
commented upon indirectly. Here's a
kid whose gambling debts have him
literally in harm's way and his kind1y professor loans him money to try
to win it all back. Instead, someone
should be shaking Mike, saying,
"You've got a gambling problem.
You need to get help."
Dahl strings out the tension as
long as he can, drawing every ounce
of squirmy electricity he can from
Norton. Eventually, however, the
movie comes down to the big game
- but its players and its outcome

G)nnett Hen Service

• For Mike McDermott. filling an
inside straight is a better bet than
fi~ishing law school.
· In John Dahl's gritty and engrossins "Rounders," Matt Damon plays
McDermott, a poker whiz who is
trying to give up the game he loves
i1t order to concentrate on his studies
...;. and his relationship with his girlfl1end, Jo (Gretchen Mol).
• But when an old friend gets in
deep debt to the mob - and asks
Mike for help at the poker tables ~ike doesn't hesitate to say, "Deal
the cards."
: The friend is Worm (Edward
ll!orton) a ne'er-do-well fresh out of
Prison. He and Mike have a long and
loyal history in high-stakes poker
games (though neither is yet out of
hls 20s). There are differences,
though. Worm is an amoral hustler
who'll deal off the bottom to take
pbts from rubes in over their heads.
~ike is more of a poker purist with

a phenomenal head for the odds and
a psychologist's skill at reading
opponents' minds.
The mob, ~y the way, is a strange
mix of Russian and more conven tional hoodlums, operating big-time
poker games in an underground network of apartments and tavern back
rooms.
The man at the top is a Russian
nicknamed Teddy KGB (played by a
typically spooky and wired John
Matkovich). If you 're going to come
out on top in this poker world,
you're going to have to call Teddy's
bluff.
Veteran film-watchers may have
already detected the formula:
"Rounders" is a "Cincinnati Kid"
for the slacker '90s. And "The
Cincinnati Kid" simply adapted
"The Hustler'"s pool-shark saga to
the world of flushes and full houses.
Damon plays the young upstart
not unlike those played by Steve
McQueen and Paul Newman in the
famous
predecessors,
and

Matkovich plays "The Man," the
type of wily veteran played by
Edward G. Robinson and Jackie
Gleason .
Damon's portrayal adds a complex level of moral conflict.
As Worm, the irresponsible renegade side of Mike's persona,
Edward Norton creates another
quirky, warped character to stand
beside his much-praised portrayal of
the murder suspect in "Primal

ence will understand all the lingothose who know "juice" refers to
interest on a loan, for example.
But don't worry; you'll understand enough from the actions and
reactions of the card players, even if
you can't follow everything they
say. Chalk up any confusion to
"atmosphere."

Superman stamp unveiled In Cleveland ceremony
CLEVELAND (AP) - Look!
Up in the sky! It's a bird. It's a plane.
lt's a stamp!
A five-story replica of a new
stamp featuring Superman in all his
red, blue and yellow glory was
raised onto a downtown skyscraper
Thursday to the cheers of schoolchildren and other fans.
"Nothing says All-American
more than Superman," said Matt
~izzuto, 21, wearing a "Lois and
Clark" T-shirt and a Superman hat.
"He's a piece of American history.
Whenever there were hard times he
was there."
· "Even in the '90s with Clinton
and everything he's there."
He thinks the Man of Steel is so
big, in fact, that Cleveland should
lionor him with a statue in the downt\)Wn square of this city, where he
was created in 1938.
· The city celebrated Superman
with the postal service, which

Q. My cement slab garage floor is
starting 10 wear and show rough
spots. Is there a way I can apply a
lopping layer to renew lhe surface?
A. You can top a slab, but you
musl be careful about gelling lhe topping material too thin. The Portland
Cement Association recommends
thallopping over hardened concrete
should not be less than 2 inches thick
at ant point.
To top a concrete slab, clean lhe
surface with mwiltic acid or coocretc
cleaner (available in paint and hardwan:: stores). To ensure 1hc lopping
bonds well, roughen lhe surface of
any slab IIIII has a shiny, 5lllOOih surface . Use a wire blUsh and fullstrength muriatic acid to do this.
Next. mix a sluny of cement. sand
and water and scrub this onto lhe surface with a throwaway scrub brush.
This sluny acts as a primer to ensure
a good bond between the slab and the
lopping. Apply the concrete topping
mix on top of the sluny before the
sluny starts 10 dry.
Q. We are repainting our textured
ceiling and we're having a difficult
time trying to get an even finish. Are

there special considerations 10 be
aware of when doing this type of job?
. A. Yes, then: are. Here is some
background on this type of ceiling
and some tips to help you with your
job. Spray-textured ceilings became
the most popular ceiling finish about
30 years ago. Early texture materials
were odd blends of taping compounds, perlite or venniculite and
whiteners, all mixed with water. The
resulting texrure finish was a superporous material that abwrl&gt;s paint
unevenly. It is this porosity and
unequal paint absorption that makes
lextured ceilings difficult to paint
when they become soiled.
Even today, all spray texture finishes are mill mixes, meaning they
are a combinaJion of powder ingredients that must be mixed with waler.
Painting such finishes is about equal
to painting a sponge: !here is heavy
and unequal paint suction. The result
is that. if you apply ordinary latex or
oil paints, you will sec roller marks
or lap marts where the paint lays
unevenly on the finish.
To overcome this paint suction
you must awly a good sealer. Use an
alkyd (oil) sealer and apply it with a
long-nap roller. The long nap of the

WASHINGTON - Companies
struggling with Year 2000 computer
problems may find a silveruu lining
with the IRS, but some questions
cloud the issue - such as how to
qualify for the best deductions.
The Internal Revenue Service says
il will allow full tax deductions - in
a single year rnlher than the usual
three - for businesses that have to
repair or convert existing software.
Deductions for improvements
beyond lixing the millennium bug,
however, still fall under the threeyw rule. the agency's guidelines say.
But there is much uncertainty
about precisely what that llle!ans and thus, many fear the matter could
result in thousands of legal tax fighL~ .
"If's going to be a fine and fuzzy
line between improving your softwan: and convening it." said Hannah
Carvey. a Washington tax auomey.
"When you actually get into it.
there's very little you can buy that
doesn't actually improve your system."
It is generally heuer for the taxpayer 10 fully deduct a cost from
income taxes over one year, rother
rhan three or more, because all the
money is more quickly available for
other purposes.
For businesses across America,
the Y2K problem. as it'.&lt; known,
threatens to disrupt everything fmm
payroll data to computer-controlled
c
sprinkler systems.
The IRS says businesses can
deduct the cost.~ of dealing with the
problem on one important condition:
the costs must be incurred in the
repair or conversion of e~isting software.
Individuals who are able to deduct
expenses because lhcy u.o;e their home
computell&lt; for business purposes or
run a company from home fall under
the same IRS guidelines as companies.
The Y2K problem affects compuler programs written to recognize
only lhe last two digirs of a year. This
was commonly done when storage
and memory were eAtremely eApensive, and progrnmme~ could saved

The problem is that these computers will falsely read the year 2000

he said. And 80 percent of consumers
ha~e repeatedly said in builder surveys that they would rnther own a
single-family home in the suburbs
than a smaller town house or condominium in lhe city, Shackford said.
He also disagreed with the environmentalists' assumption that most
suburbanites work in cities, saying
that job markel~ are booming in outlying areas.
"I don't disagree that we·ve got to
do a better job of urban planning. but
it's a complicated proce~s. and Americ-ans don't want to give up their

including establishing urban growth

such a plan since the 1970s, and Oregon and Wa., hington require all communities to develop long-range

The env[ronmental group also
urges communities to work to re~i ­

downtowns to reduce the urban fli ght
that leads to suburban sprawl.

1,550 pilots, reaching a peak of 150
hires a month earlier this year. Delta
expect&lt; a steady I0 new hire.1 a
month through the end of 1999.
American Airlines Inc .. which ha.~
the lugest U.S.jet fleet, also hired no
pilots from 1993 to 1997 and furloughed 610 pilots by the end of
1994. Earlier this year. it started a drive to hire 2.642 pilots by 2002.
And Cincinnati-ba.'!Cd Comair Inc.
now has an all-time high 1.000 ·pilots.
The force behind the hiring drive
is twofold
-A strong and growing industry.
Travel demand and prolils are up,
leading airlines 10 expand its ranks.
"When airlines havF money, they
spend il on big planes, and they fly
the planes they have more," Darby
said, adding that more flights mean
more pilots.
- The thousand~ of pilots hired
during the la.~t major airline expansion in the 1960s are reaching the
federally mandated retirement age of
60.almost all at once. Trans World
Airlines alone expects one-third of its
pilots to retire within the next five
years.
Airline hiring is cyclical, Darby
said, making the late 1990s a great
time for people like Stegbuchner.
Years ago, the labor market
wouldn't have been the only thing
working against him. His age and
experience also would have been a
detriment. He is now 36 years old and
ha.~ never served in the military.
Plato Rhyne, manager of pilot
selection at Delta. said that when he
slarted flying in 1965. airlines wnuldn't hire pilots older than 30. They also
didn't hire many career military

pilots. pilots with not-quite-perfect
vision or women.
According to annual surveys conducted by AIR Inc .. much of !hat ha.&lt;
changed in the past 10 yea"'. Since
1988. the averoge age for new hires
at all airlines had increa.o;ed from 33
10 35.
"Older pilots are being considered," Darby said. ""Today. they are
hiring right up to 50, 55 years old."
Rhyne said federnl laws prohibit
airlines now from a.'king an applicant's age.
New FAA regulations require that
a pilot's vision be correctable to
20/20 not that it is 20/20. (The percent of pilots hired at major airlines
with vision below that perfect mark
ha.• doubled in the last I 0 yea,-,;, from
about I2 percent to about 25 percent.)
Societal changes also have affected airlines' hiring patterns. With
more women in the work force and
in the military, more women are getting hired as pilots. The number is
still low -less than 7 percent of the
101al airline pilot hirings - but double the proportion of I0 years ago.
" Now we're teaping rhe benelits
of military-trained female pilots,"
Rhyne said. "Aero-. the board. it's
changing because opportuniries
opened up along the way."
Stegbuchner auended Comair Aviation Academy in Sanford. Fla. The
program is intensive: he likened it to
putting a lire hose in his mouth, turning it on full blast and not spilling a
drop.
"They throw that much infonnation at you at once." he said.
Stegbuchner said he's spent about
$36,000 so far. and h~'s about KOO

hours short of flight time required at
an airline like Comair.
Allending the school doesn 't guarantee graduares a job with the airline:
10 percent to IS percent of Comair'
pilots are graduates of the Comair
Aviation Academy.
In fact. simply graduating doesn "t
guarantee a job anywhere . Most
graduates linish with ahout 250 hou,-,;

of fl ying time. Stegbuchner has 41Ml.
Major airlines n:qutre about 1.100
flying hours to be hired. but their
hires average 4.000.
Darby called this time - the time
between federal accreditation and
getting enough experience to he hired
- the '"black hole." He said many
people in this position do as
Stegbuchner: get a job as an instructor.

"Aviation i&gt; very costly and very
time-consuming," Darby said. " You
can spend a lot of money in a very
short lime learning to fly .'"
Becoming an instructor lets pilots
clock air time. especially on the
expensive and hard-to-come-by mul·
ti-engine airplanes.
After putting in a few years there.

pilot nr at a regional carrier. After

"It can disrupt a company 's business. cause financial loss and give
rise to legal liability," said Bruce Fox,
a Chicago attorney who is advising
businesses on how to deal with the
problem.
So companies are busy trying to
figure out the best way to make their
systems Y2K compliant. One of the
factors involved is how the solutions
will allect a company's tax bill.
The IRS last year acknowledged
the special nature of the tax problem
by issuing guidance linking the situation to a 1969 ruling involving computer research and development
costs. The agency said it "will not
disturb" a taxpayer's full . one-year
deduction of the costs. so long as the
costs involve conversion. nOithe purchase of new software that may
i{llprove existing systems in other
ways.
Without more definitive instructions. some tax advisers say compa. nies will purchase software that fixes the Y2K problem·and attempt to
deduct it- only 10 have the IRS di.&lt;pute the claim tccause the software
also makes other improvements.
Final disposition of the cases
could take yeUJli and prove even more
costly.
"Their guidance is skeletal." Carvey said. "They are inviting litigalion."
While much attention on Capitol
Hill has focused on the federul government's auem'Pts to deal with Y2K
in.its own agencies' computers, Congress also is beginning to notice the
tax dilemma facing private business.
The House Ways and Means
Committee is considering legislation
by Rep. Karen Thu~n. D-Fia.. that
would make it easier for small bu.~i­
nes.'ICS 10 fully deduct Y2K costs.
The measure. endO!lied earlier
this month by a subcommittee, would
more than double the one-time
deductions that small businesses are
allowed for capital cost• such a.•
,desk.' or computers. The idea is to
rnise the limit high enough so that
smaller businesses can immediately
write off their Y2K costs in one year,
regardless of the IRS definition.
"This is an expense you ccnainly
dott'laet 1 benefit for," Fox said.
.

" Los Angeles stands as a warning

But a spokesman for the National

report is fundamentally flawed
because it does not addJeM the under·
lying causes of growth- a booming
economy and an expanding population that is fueling the demand for
affordable ~uburban housing.
"We need to build I.J million to

Coffee falls to 22-month low on Brazilian suppllf fears

••

By CUFF EDWARDS

AP BuaiMU Wr1t1r
Coffee futures prices Friday dived
to their lowest in nearly two years on
the New Yorlt Boud of Trade amid
fean the world economic crisis
would force Brazil to devalue its currency and prompt a wave of selling
from the world's l:ugest coffee producer.
On other martets, grain futures
retreated on government crop ~ports.
but ooybeans bounced higher. Meal
and livestock also gained.
Brazil late Thursday boosted its
interest ra1es 20 pen:entage points in
an effort to protect investor fligbt
from the Brazilian real to the U.S.

dollar. Marlcet participants are concerned those measures will be unsuccessful and could force a devalualion
of the real.
That, in tum, could prompl coffee
owners to seD massive amounts of the
largest crop in more lhan a decade.
Coffee is a dollar-denominated commodity, and 1 devaluation of the - '
would significandy boos! prices
fetched on the open marteL
December anbica coffee feU 4.85
cents Friday to $1.0415 a pound.
The Brazilian Federation of Coffee Exporters expects a coffee harvest
of 35.2 million bags, of which 16.3
million bags are expected to be
e~ That fig= could go high-

er if the - ' is devalued.
Coffee futures also faa: continued
presiUrC from pe!\Z(JCions supplies of
the arabica beans used in gourmet
coffees will be adequate to meet
roasten' needs going into the peak
cool -:ealher COil5UIIIplion period.
Those perceptions have been
fueled in part by roasters, who have
been waiting for prices to fall, and on
an announcement earlier tllis week
from the Colombia National Coffee
Federation thai raised its estimale of
output for the CIIITCIIt nwteting year,
which eods this month.
G!ain futures mreated on the
Chicago Board of Trade after the
government ioaeased iL' estima!Cs

Stocks rally into weekend
despite Starr's report on Clinton
day downturn !hal had wiped out
Tuesday's record gain of 380 points,
trimmed the Dow's loss for 1998to
I pen:ent and shrank the gap from the
July 17 ~ of 9,337.97 to about
16.5 percent.
The martet's weak opening on
Friday followed another rocky day
overseas, where Tokyo's Nikkei
Stock Average plunged 5.1 percent
amid news !hal Japan's worst reces·

No settlement, so Anheuser-Busch
implements Teamsters contract
ST. LOUIS (AP) - Another
round of talks proved futile, so
Anheuser-Bu.o;ch will implement its
final contrnct proposal for the Teamsters union on Sept. 21.
Negotiators for the St. Louis·
based maker of Budweiser and sev·
eml other beers met with union offi·
cials Wednesday through Friday in
Charlotte. N.C., to discuss a Team·
sters counter-proposal, developed by
negotiators at a meeting Ia.~ month in
Aorida.
"The proposal we saw simply
rehashed matters that had been
repeatedly discussed during the past
10 months," said William L.
Rammes. vice president-corporate _
human resources for AnheuserBusch. "There was nothing new. In
fact. in oome cases the union wanted
• ·to renegotiate some things tllat had
been agreed to months ago.
"Clearly. we are still at impasse,"
. Rammes said.
• • Teamsters spokeswoman Oaye
Williams said union leaders were still
~viewing the ~wery's decision. and
had no immediate comment. ~nion
· .members have al~ady authorized a
. .strike. !hough leaders have satd worken would remain on the job as long
as efforL~ were being made to reach
· .an accord. The last contract expired
. March 29.
Anheuser-Busch employs about

8,000Teamstm 3112 domestic brew·
eries, including one in Columbus,
Ohio.
Contr.ICI talks began in November.
The company's offer was overwhelmingly ~jected May I. After
talks to clarify the offer, it wa.~ again
rejected in July, thougb by a much
narrower margin. witll about 46 percent of the union members favoring
ratifiClltion.
The Tean!llen, who do everything
from brewing to botding. make about
$20 an hour in wages, and receive
$23 an hour in benefits. The conh:lcl
offer would boost their compensation
package by about II percent over five
years.
Btll union leaders have expressed
concern about job security, claiming
the contrnct includes changes that
would crellle part-time instead of fulltime jobs.
The company has acknowledged
lhat atleast600 full-time jobs would
be eliminated under the proposed
contract. niostly thrQUgh attrition.
"We think lhat once employees
uperience first-hand the changes
we've proposed.. !hey will ultimate·
ly ratify the contrnct when given the
chance to do so by the union."
Rarnmes said. "That would be ben·
eficialto all."

Analysts said investors, unsetded
by Wednesday's unexpected delivery
of the report to Congress. may have
been relieved to see !hal there wm
no major surprises.
The report, made public by a
House vote, specifically accused
Clinton of obstruction of justice,
witness tampering, abuse of his presidential powers and peljury - both
in his grand jury appearance last
month and in his sworn deposition
last January in the Paula Jones lawsuit.

Seniors who attended the forum
were briefed on a number of fraud
schemes that have been unco~ered in
Southern Ohio. and on techniques to
avoid frJudulent marketers.
An estimated S40 billion is lost
each year to fmudulent telemarkeling.
Ninety percent of the victims are
senior citizens. The following tips.
compiled by the American Association of Retired Persons. the Better
Business Bureau and the Ohio Allor·
ney Geneml's Office, can help pre·
vent seniors from becoming victims
of fraud:
• Don't pay anything to claim a
prize or free gift. It is illegal in Ohio
for a person to be required to pay in
order to win or be eligible to win or
claim a prize.
• Don't give checking or savings
account information to anyone over
the telephone. Don't give credit card

numbers over the telephone unless
you know the organization is reputable.
·
• Don't assume that an organization is legitimate because of impressive-looking brochures, testimonials
or official-sounding names.
• Beware of high p~ssu~ sales
tactics, such as prizes; awards and
deals that a~ only available if you
"act right away."
• Ask for written information from
11ny organization soliciting over the
telephone. and have someone you
trust review it before you act.
• ContracL• don"t have to be difficult to understand. Don't sign anything Without understanding it completely.
• It it sounds too good to be true,
it probably is.
• If in doubt, hang up the tele·
phone. Don't worry about being
polite to those seeking to waste your ,
lime and steal your life savings.
