O i11 o Senators call for quick impeachment trial I jAMoclated Preee Writer . · WASHINGTON (AP) - The push for a speedy Senate impeachment trial is gaining momentum among k<y lawmakers from both parties. But Repub· .licans say censure should be considered only after those proceedings begin, and perhaps not before th<y conclude with an up-or-down vote on removing President Clinton. Talks about the logistics are expected to intensify this week as the t06th Congress prepares to convene Jan. 6. Senators such as Rick Santorum, R-Pa., and John Breaux, .D·Ut., are suggesting the trial begin by the next day. Several senators said on the Sunday television talk shmh that they want the matter concluded in the first two months of the year. One GOP senator said censure should not be discussed until after the Senate votes on the perjury and obstruction:of-justice impeachment articles approved Dec. 19 by the House. "We ought to vote on these articles of impeachment, and then that is the appropriate time to considera censure," Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said on "Fox News Sunday." · . "Assuming neither of those articles pass, which is what's widely expected will be the outcome ... you sit down and you negotiate the censure alternative," he said. Republicans and Democrats agreed thai any ·trial should be quick, given that many senators or both par• ties believe there is little chance that the Senate could muster the two-thirds majority to convict and remove~ Ointon. ' Internal surveys to see whether there actually is a two-thirds majority for conviction will not begin until aft<r the trial opens, said Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Orrin· Hatch, R-Utah. Without the 67 votes needed, Senate leaders then ·would "come up with the strongest censure resolution there is," Hatch said on CBS' "Face the Nation." Democrats are pushing for a strongly worded ceosure to punish Clinton for tryi 0g to cover up his affair with Monica Lewinsky, perhaps adding a fine and admission of perjury. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-N. Y., said he is leading a bipartisan censure drafling effort. Senators of both parties agreed that they, like remainder.

But the timeliness or such a trial depends heavily on the definition of speed in a chamber that prides itself on careful, often lengthy, deliberations. Several senalOrs suggested that the trial conclude by March, the traditional starting time for the Senate's legisla· tive work.

Off-track bettin~~~ may be back on track Although off-track betting on horse races. in Ohio may look like a long· shot for now, people in the racmg industry say odds are it has a future in Ohio. Ohio's horse track owners have been making a big push in the past year to establish off-track betting parlors, where people can wager on races televised from across the nation The track owners have suffered a couple of selbacks in recent weeks. Last month, voters in Stark County and Canton banned off-track betting for f1ve years after Cleveland's Northficild Park proposed putting an OTB site in a former bowling alley. Last week, the Ohio Racing Commission turned down a bid to open an OTB parlor in Sandusky. ' Jerry Knappenberger, general manager of the Ohio Harness Horseman 's :Association, a harness racing industry group with 3,000 members, thinks it's : a matter of lime before OTB parlors pop up around the state. , "I guess everybody in the sport remains positive that off-track betting • facilities can be established," he said Wednesday. : "Once one of these faciliJles opens and people realize it is really nothmg : more than an upscale sports bar and causes no problems, you'll see more •open." , · : He >aid there was fierce opposition to off-track betting in Yennsylvania : until the first parlor opened there. After that, the complaints died down. That ·state now has 17 OTB siles. "It's not like a full-blown casino by any means," he said. ' Knappenberger said several Ohio horse track owners are considering :·whether to put OTB parlors in other communities in the state, but added that nothing is co~crete yet. 1 Gambling opponenls helped defeat the Canton proposal by takmg the ·issue to court and then to a vote. . The Sandusky proposal was halted for a different reason. The Ohio Racing CommiSsion was concerned about the parlor's potential operator Toledo's Raceway Park. The commisSion and lhe track are involved in a d1spute over !fie commission's rules. According to commission records, Raceway Park failed to pay fees to Cleveland's Thistledown race track for overseeing payouts between tracks over wagering on each track's races.

' Nation's largest bank a sub-prime playe(: By Jeck l,nderaon •nd J1n Moller There may not be a banker m Amenca who's enjoyed the Ointon admmistration more than Hugh McColl. The chairman of NationsBank was one of the major movers behind a far-reaching bank-modernization bill that allows big banks to expand across stale lines without regulatory hassles. McColl has dined at tho White House and breakfasted with the president, and his bank lent .money to George Stephanopoulos when the thenClinton aide wanted to buy a $900,000 property In a few short years, McColl and his company have gone from being a regional powerhouse to a nat10nal brand name that competes w1th Clticorp and other industry giants. Beatnce Smith represents the other side of that equation. An elderly, Afncan American homeowner 1n Georgia, Smith became a good and frequent cus tomer of NationsCredit, a wholly owned subsid~ary of NationsBank. The mortgage on her $34,000 property was refinanced a tolal of six times in six years While refmancing is a good idea when interest rates are low, often come with heavy fees and contingencies attached, leaving fixed-income borrowers with notes they can't afford to pay back. Pat Sisely, a spokesman for Nat1onBank, told us the Smith case has now been• settled. "We withdrew foreclosure, and we made an offer that was accepted," she said. But Smith's lawyer, Howard Rothbloom, says that's not the case. He told our associate Kathryn Wallace thai the case is still pending. "The big lenders say they don't make money on foredosure," he said. "They make loans and refinance them repeatedly, charging fees in order to strip the equity out of the home .... We're not talking about mom-and -pop lending organizations here, bul the nation's largest. We're talking about NationsBank." · What is clear is that the Smith case, and dozens of similar ones filed in the last several years Otherwise, the Jetter said, they'd ta~e her~Smith ignored the threat and contmued to warn homeowners of. the dangers or predatO<y le~derl.

"When a customer walks !" for a below:pnme ; loan, we treat them just~ 1f they walked'" to~ : bank." • Stacy Canan, legal aid for the American~; ciation of Retired Persons (AARP), reviews h~ Smith's interest rate was actually increased on several occasions. Her rates fluctuated between I0 and 19 percent, and she paid several thousands of dollars in fees and closing costs each time she refinanced Eventually, the monthly payment became more than she could afford, and she defaulted on her loan. When NationsCredit then foreclosed and tned to take her home, she got an at,torney and counter-sued for unconscionable lending. case has ' Smith's become a cause-celebre among activists and lawyers who want to rein in the runaway subprime lending market. Once a haven for small, shady operators, this lucrative market has now atlracted g~ant national firms Iike NationsBank. But its critics say sub-prime lenders often lake advantage of the poor and elderly by selling them on expensive loans at usurious rates that are vir· tually designed to produce foreclosure.

Andrew Brady, Ty and Haley By MARK MUCKENFUSS The San BerMrdlno Sun Most baby boomers grew up watching Roy Rog~rs and Dale Evans keep the West safe from tile bad guys. They also j!rew up wat~hing Alice· Van-Springsteen. Most of them just don 't know it. Van-Springsteen worked as Evans' stunt double in most of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans big-screen movies and in about half ofthe duo's television shows. At 80, Van-Springsteen has long si nce given up stunt work. But she and Evans, 86. have remained friends over the years. And Evans recently accompanied Van-Springsteen to Houston where the fonner stunt \\'Oman was inducted into the Cowgirl Hall of Fame. "I really grew to love Alice as a sister," says Evans,. seated in her office at the Roy Rogers and Dale · Evans Museum in Victorville, Calif. Va~ · Springsteen sits across the desk from her. She's there for a visit, having driven up from her horne in Coronado. "That's right," Alice nods. "We 're li ke sisters." It was on the set of "Yellow Reise of Texas, " the second film Rogers ' and Evans made together, that VanSpringsteen and Evans met. ' · · Evans says she remembers watching Van-Springsteen work and trying to learn how better to ride a horse by following her moves. "Republic Studios thought since I was a Texan, surely I could ride a horse," Evans recalls. "They were mistaken. I watched Alice when she doubled me and I learned things. I watched the way she sat a horse like a man. She would give me tips along the way." 1 Van-Springsteen was the dght source for riding tips. A professional rodeo .and trick rider since the age of 12, she performed durin~ openin~ cere111onies at the 1932 Olympic Games in Los Angeles and had won world titles in champion trick riding. She also rode as a jockey and was the third woman ever to receive a trainer's license for thoroughbred horses. In 1937, at the age of 18, she was invited by the queen of England to ride in tbe WlllUal Royal Easter Show in Aus- tralia, . "' • "She found out about my riding, I guess," Van-Springsteen say~. "so · f went to Australia and rode the Easter show. I'd just got back and somebody (that met her) at the ship said, 'Fox Studios watits you to work with them.' " · She had worked in movies before. Her first work as a film stunt woman was in Will Rogers' 131'1 movie, "In Old Kentucky." Eventually she was a stunt double for many =ognized stars such as for Eliza~ Taylor in "National Velvet," Marian Davis, lane Wyman, lngri<\ Bergman and Barbara Stanwyck in "llle Big Valley" television series. -. ~~ had other women that doubled me, 'but none of them impressed me lik5 -Aiice," Evans says. .lo-the days before Evans married RoJers, she and Van -Springsteen al,;ll viere roommates. They shared a guest house at Bing Crosby's home for about a year. In addition to sharing their living space, they shared the trials of their early careers. " When I came to 20th Century Fox, I had to spend my first week's salary on the dentist," Evans says. llle siudio head of Fox at the time placed great emphasis on the perfect smile .. "I had io wear caps," she says, "the kind you paste on. I did 'The Cowboy and the Senorita' and I had the pe~rect smile." BUt because her riding ·skills weren't up to par, she spent a lot of time bouncing up and down in the saddle. In one scene, she says, "I bounce~ so hard, my caps llew off and w¢nt, in the din and (her co· star's) horse stepped on them and broke .\hem. I was so thankful: I never wore caps again.' ' • Most of Van-Springsteen's pit· falls catife in the way of bruises and broken bones, including a broken back fiom coming down on top of a · gate during a rodeo event. "They said, 'She'll never .walk again,' " she says, recalling the doctots' prognosis. "But I was walking in six months. " There was a time when the studios tried to move Van-Springsteen from anonymity and turn her into a star.

Middleport • Pomeroy, Ohio Volume 49, Number 167 Single Copy - 35 Cents Treasurer offers commissioners more funds for debt retirement Py BRIAN J. REED Sentinel News Staff '" Meigs Couniy Treasurer Howard Frarik again offered the Meigs County Commissioners the opportunity tq retire almost $100,000 in bank loans before the end of the year, using procee'ds from the county's- investment program. · Frank met with the commissioners during their regular meeting on Monday .to ask that funds ~nerated during the month from his investment of inactive county funds be used to retire bank loans in. the amounts of $62,872 and $34;066, taken out for the purchase of a Pomeroy office building and the purchase of a 'new fiscal computer system, respectively. The loans were approved by the board earlier this year, and according tq Frank, the commissioners could save a total of S18,000 in interest by paying the loans off by year's end. · Frank said that ·the $100,000 in additional. revenue could be used tO·pay off both loans ,and to buy a new air conditioning system which the commissioners plan to purchase for the multipurpose senior center next year. Frank met with the commissioners earlier this month · with a similar proposal, but the commissioners used those investment revenues lo pay an outstanding debt to th_e Public Employees Retirement System and to pay the county's ·share of employee health insurance, leaving the loans unpaid. Commissioner Janet Howard expressed support of paying the loans off, but Commis- ' sioner Jeffrey Thornton said he thought the ·hoard should wait .until after the new year to see if the county should retire the debts, or to use the new ful)ds to supplement the general fund carryover for the new year. Howard said that the county will be required to carry over $250,000 in order to meet payroll and debt before the 1999 budget is approved, and Frank estimates the carryover available to date at $180,000. Frank said that his investment program has paid $323,244 during the yeai, $148,000 more than he estimated in January. He emphasized that the funds he has offered for debt retirement are new funds not related to the county's general fund or the 1999 carryover. "I'm sure that the taxpayers of this county want this debt paid off, • Frank said. Commissioner Fred Hoffman, who attended his last meeting Monday, was honored by feilow commissioners and office staff. He was commended by Howard and Frank. "It has been a pleasure working with (Hoffman)," Frank said. "He is very knowledgeable about county government and has tried .to do his best for the county." Hoffman called his years as a county commissioner an "honor." ~·1 appreciate the opportunity to serve the people of Meigs County, and I wish the new board the best," Hoffman said.
