Pottmeyer said the con$[1UCtion
budget as established by Quandel
requires an additional $1.8 million

he said.
"We are not doing anything different than other schools have done,"

Pottmeyer said the action may cost
the district a couple of weeks on its

Challenger Cordray attacks
Montgomery on gun control
CLEVELAND (AP)- The candidates for Ohio attorney general disagree about whether state and federal handgun buyer checks are needed.
The issue emerged Monday as
Democrat Rtchard Cordray picked up
the endorsement of gun control advocate Sarah Brady. who chatrs Handgun Control Inc.
She also was a dnving force
behind the so-called Brady law. Her
husband. James Brady. was wounded in the 1981 assasstnation attempt
on President Reagan
Cordray accused incumbent
Republican Betty Montgomery of
leaving Ohioans vulnerable to en me
by not impostng state background
checks on all potential handgun buyers.

Montgomery responded that every
person who wants to buy a handgun
in Ohto has a criminal history
checked. although it may not be
through the state.
The Brady law mandates a fiveday waiting period to give local
police time to check the backgrounds
of people who are buying handguns.
But the U.S. Supreme Court in June
1997 struck down a provision in the
law requiring states to do such
reviews.

After the ruling. Montgomery
made handgun background checks
\loluntury.

Last December, Montgomery· s
office and the federal government
struck u deal under which a two-tier
system was set up: if a gun buyer
signs a form permitting a hack~rnund

check. the state perform' 11.

11 becau'e they felt it would create a
'ttuatlon where employees were paymg twu:e for coverage and that it
would rr~ate a financial hardship on
'orne employees.
Jenktns also satd that he planned
to request a state aud11 of the fund.

When gun buyers won't stgn the
form. the Franklm County Sheriffs
Department IS patd to do a check
using federal records.

Cordray argued that the county's
background check ts less complete
than the state's. allowtng some guns
to fall into the wrong hands
.. People are rejected for handgun
purchases tn the state of Ohto at only
one-quarter the rate of the national
avemge." he sa1d. '"That is a s1tuat1on
that endangers people on the street
and endangers law enforcement.··

Montgomery satd Ohto had to
drop the mandatory background
checks after the Supreme Court ruling last year because it had no Brady
law and her office couldn't legally
require them .
..We looked high and low to see
if there were a way we could legally
do 11 ... Montgomery said . .. 1 have

Montgomery 's otlice said 374 of
41.947. or .89 percent of applicants
for handguns were rejected in Ohio
this year through Sept. 14.
Mrs. Brady. who spoke at a small
fund?atser for Cordray. described
him as a longttme ally of gun control
forces .

.. He has been a strong and con·
sistent supporter of the Bmdy law and
other measures to keep handguns

Cubs beat Giants 5-3, win playoff berth
ByRICKGANO
CHICAGO (AP) - For years
they were the team that could blow
any lead, squander any game. The
Chicago Cubs teased and tormented
their faithful fans. who kept flocking
to their picturesque neighborhood
park nonetheless.
Losing was just what the Cubs
did. pretty much every summer. And
if it wa.1n"t good baseball. it was otten
entertaining. always eventful. an
excuse to party.
Now. in a season that almost
defies description. the Cubs have
found a way to win the National
League wild card -;- not ea.&lt;ily. of
course - and are in the playoffs for
the first time since 1989.
"It wasn 't going to be any other
way for us," first ba&lt;eman Mark
Grace said.
Grace. the only remaining member from the last playoff team. led a
parade around Wrigley Field following Monday night's 5-3 victory over
the San Francisco Giants in the first
one-game NL playoff in 18 years.
The Giants scored three runs in the
ninth before burly ex-San Francisco
closer Rod Beck got 1993 World
Series hero Joe Caner. playing in his

on.
"Five-run lead. tying run at the
dish. That's the way it's going to be
with the Chicago Cubs ... Grace said.
Now i!'s on to Atlanta to face the
Braves. And even though they beat
the Braves six times in nine meetings,
the Cubs will be decided underdogs
against the team of the "90s when the
best-of-5 series begins Wednesday.
But in this wacky and unforgettable season. why not''
There was the ball that got stuck
in the ivy against the Chicago White
Sox and was ruled a ground-rule dou·

Another run was saved when a ball

Rockies.

And there was the agony. The
Cubs lost six of eight going into
Monday night. but still got into a
playoff when the Giants blew a 7-0
lead Sunday and lost to the Rockies.

Wright to start for Tribe against BoSox today
By TOM WITHERS
CLEVELAND (AP) ~ Jaret
Wright took the mound in Yankee
Stadium a year ago with the whole
world watching and his team's postseason future resting on his young
shoulders.
Just a doe-eyed. 21-year-old rookie then. he handkd the pressure like
a I0-year veteran to become baseball's postseason darling. He led the
Indians on a surprising October run
which ended with an !!-inning loss
in Game 7 of the World Series.
Wright. who will start Game I of
Cleveland's best-of-live AL playoff
series today against Boston's Pedro
Martinez. is hoping the '98 postseason picks up right where "97 ended.
"Hopefully at the end of that storybook it said to be continued. and I
can add a few more chapters to thiS
postseason ... Wright said Monday .
This first-round series matches
1wo of baseball's most cursed fran chises with the Indians and Red Sox
having a combined 130 years of
World Series frustration. Each is
haunted by different postseason
ghosts - Cleveland by the sweep in
!954 and last year's Game 7 lo" 111

Ruth and Bill Buckner's infamous
gaffe in 19M6.

II took several years before I qui1 .• ·
planning my suicitk.
My life and the lives or all my~· family members have been · ·
changed. and il happened in a .·· ·
split second.
One minute, I wa• healthy and· •
whole. and then all of a ~udden. , . ·
find myself confined for ihe rest •·
of my Iife to a wheelchair -unable to shower myself. dress· ·
myself or comb my hair. And all ·
lhis happened because I was •
drunk when I got behind !hal ·
wheel .
The only advice I am qualified
to give is this: If a friend of yours
i~ drunk, be a REAL friend. and
drive him or her home. That's lhe
greatesl gift you can give. -- D.S..

By PhiiUp Alder
It is importam for an archer to
keep his eye on the target the bull's
eye. As mentioned yesterday. it is
important for a bridge defender to
keep his eye on.the target: lhe number of·tricks needed 10 defeat the contract.
In this example, you are East,
defending against four hearts after
South has shown a balanced 21 -22
and a Stayman inquiry has unco&gt;ered
lhe .heart fit Your partner leads the
spade lwo. What is your·plan?
True, here three no-trump is easy
to make. Howevu. when one has a
. singleiOn, wheeling oui Stayman is
normal. If responder doesn't use it
now, when would he?
There is one instinct that is almost
unconscious among defenders. If
they see a chance to give their partner a ruff, they go ahead and do so.
They rarely st&lt;ip for a mcimentiO con. sider the deal a~ a whole and how the
play will develop after the ruff.
. . Easi. knowing his panner had led
a ~ingleton, relumed _lhe spade three
at trick two. After ruffing. West
switched to a club. Declarer won in
· the dummy and played a trump. East
pul up Ihe ace and led another spade,
bul Wesl was_out of trumps-- as Easl
knew he would be.
East should have considered his
large!. Four tricks were needed, not
three. Easl had to organize a club ru.IT
before giving Wesl his spade ruff. At
Irick 1wo. East must switch to the
club nine. Declwer will win in the
dummy .and J)lay a' h~art. but East
wins wilh lhe ace and leads the spade
' three. Wesl ruffs and, reading East's
.card as a suit-preference signal, ·
returns a club. East's ruff defeats the
contract

By CHARLEY GILLESPIE
Associated Press Writer
COLUMBUS- A month away
from opening day. the scoreboard sits
on the floor of Ohio State's new mulllpurpose arena.
Rolls of carpeting and thousands
uf boxes containing seats. furniture
and appliances panially block each
concourse while they wait to be
installed.
But officials are confident the arena and the surrounding Jerome Schottenstein Center will be ·ready for an
NBA exhibition game Oct. 30
between the Chicago Bulls and the
Philadelphia 76ers.
"The only thing left of real structural complexity is some of the concession stands," Xen Riggs, the cen·
ler'&lt; director, said Tuesday.
The . ~lilli.5 miUiop building,.
named after the late Columbus businessman. philanthropist and a
founder of Schottenstein Stores
Corp .. replaces the 43-year-old. too' mall St. John Arena.
The center also will be used for
nonsponing events, such as concens. an appeamnce by comedian Bill
Cosby and ice skating shows.
With more than 700.000 total
s4uarefeet. the new center could hold
two St. Johns.
But for now the ..:enter is thick
