Cohen drew a guffaw by pulling
the microphone up close and assuring Thurmond, 94, he would speak
directly "into the machine," a phrase
the chairman uses when urging witnesses to speak up;'
Sen. Carl Levin of Michigan,
. ranking committee Democrat, asked
Cohen if he 'still advocates seeking
congressiOnal approval before

Cohen said he did but added that
a president could·seck "consultation
or approval" from Congress for sending troops into the field .
Cohen also defended the administration's intent to develop a national missile defense plan by 2000 and
delay until then a decision on whether
to build and deploy the system.

' · WASHINGTON -In the end, Democrats decided to lighten up as the
House dealt Newt Gingrich his punishment.
.
.
They softened their rhetoric, and in 90 subdued minutes of debate, nary
, a one of them demanded that the embattled GOP speaker step aside.
'
"Ultimately, he's the Republicans' problem," Rep. Anna Eshoo, 0-Cnlif.,
· .• said on the day of the big vote. "They're the ones who elected him."
Their hope is that s~ner or later, given enough time and political space,
' ,the same Republicans will reconsider their decision. Or perhaps go down
"'IO defeat with him.
Several Democrats, speaking on condition of anonymity. said party lead•. ers Dick Gephardt and David Bonior urged them not to depart from the
agreed-upon script during Tuesday's floor session. The result was an unexpectedly placid debate during which Democrats made no attempt to try to
;,stiffen t.he proposed penalty beyond a reprimand and $300,000 penalty the
··House ethics committee had recommended.
. : A~y inove to toughen the pUnishment would have been turned back by
'Republicans, tllef 'said, and given fresh ~mmunition to Republicans who por·
'trayed Gingrich as the victim of raw partisanship.
.
. Strikingly, Oephardt did not speak &lt;!uring the floor debate. Neither did
Bonior, the 'Democratic pit bull of the Gingrich ethics case, in what party
.officials said was a calculated rnove to minimize the partisanship of the day.
. Instead, Bonior went before reponers afterwards to declare the outcome
·a "bold stroke for justice but a sad day for America." He declined even to

·• she acjded, "I hope you will make a judgment as to whether' he is ethically

.
'
In the meantime; the Gingrich case Will go to the Intcmat Revenue Service and perhaps the Justice Department. Besides, Democrats knQW there's
: more controversy for the speaker lurking over the contentious issue of
: whether he taps campaign funds to pay the $300,000 penalty that _accom• panicd his reprimand.
·
·
:
Apart from their political calculations, Democrats are beginning to talk

~
Republicans want nothtng more than for the ethics controversy to fade
: into the background for awhile and give Gingrich time to regroup. Several
;: rank and file Republicans have said in recent days that the speaker's per: sonal controversies are trying the patience of the membership. "I think he

. Take tbla deal as an example. You
are in four spades. West stans with
the ace and another heart. After rulfIJig, bow do ,ou continue?
There is debate about tbe meaning
of South's jump to tbree spaclea. Some
treat it as stronger than two spades,
but I diaagree witb tbis. A jump to two
spades Shows aboul9-ll points. With
more than that, you eue-~id. The
jumps to tbree SpBdes and lour spades
show long suits &lt;at least six-baggers)
and olfensive, not defenaive, values. ·
After rialling lbe second heart, declarer played a trump to West's ldng
and dummy's ace. He continued witb
a spade to his queen and started On
tbe diamonds. However, East rulfed
the third diamond anchwitebed.\!llbe .
elub to: one down.
When the spade king pops up, Soutb
should pause. There is only one danger to the contract - that East gels
on play for a dub lead through the
ldng. Here, just duet from tbe dummy,
letting West b8ve tbe trick. Soutb wins
the return, drsiW,trumps and runs tbe
diamonds in peace.

·ou.;.CQM nets grant-to institute
rural health ·information network

, Y·8 ENGINE
..

A grant of $326,000 has been
received by the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine (OUCOM) for the development of a
Southeastern Ohio rural health information system.
The new network, funded through
the U.S. Oep311ment of Agriculture,
will be used to create a system called
the Southeast Ohio Health Education
Network (SOHEN). .
The network, to use two-way
. video, interactive telecommunications technologies, will allow healthcare professionals to share information an!l allow for consultations with
other community health-care professionals on difficult cases in the future,
according to Chris t;&gt;uffrin, director
of grants program at OU-COM . ·
The primary usc of the network,
however, said Dufftin, will be to c:du. calc health-care workers across
'

'

.

southeastern Ohio.
He said thut the college will be
purchasing complete video lcleconfcrcncing systems for each of live
soulhcaslcrn Ohio sites - A1hcns,
Coshocton, .
Gallipolis,
McConnelsville and Waverly.
The setup for each site will cost
about $65,000, Duffrin said, noting
that OU-COM has 12 monlhs 10 complete the project.
The plan, according to Duffrin, is .
to begin theprojecl and order equipment carly.nexl month, and have each
site up and running by early or mid:
summer.
The network will utilize 1hree public -libraries - in McConnelsville,
Coshocton and Waver! y - and the
Southeastern Ohio Emergency Medical Service's training facilily in Gallipolis as distance learning centers,
linking them with OU-COM in

Athens and 13 OU·COM atliliatcd
hospitals stalcwide.
"This grant will soon be assisting
health-care providers in soulhcastern .
Ohio to bridge the technological and
informational gap they often feel
while practicing in a rural area," Duffrin said.
"The syst9m will be able to prOvide the lalesl health-care practices
and procedures, as 111ell as provide
general continuing education to
physicians, .nurses, emergency medical technicians an\1 other health-care
pcriionncl in these communities. ·
"The video teleconferencing system will also utilize OUlCOM
rcsoun:cs already in place- such as
its Centers for Osteopathic Regional
Education (CORE} system programming and the Area Hcallh Education
Center (AHECj programming .(Continued on Page 3)
