Opposition came not only·from the National Rine Association -which was expected- but from individual residents and the Lucas County Lodge . · of the Fraternal Order of Police. · They packed a City Council meeting this week to speak up against the mayor's strict package of gun-control measures. They told the council thai the proposal would do more to punish law-abiding residents than to prevent criminals from geUina weaP<>ns. . l "It's our opinion that passage of this legislation will only serve to prolvide the criminal element with a stronger position for the intimidation and .lvictimization of'the'honest citizen," said Sam Eidy, president of the l~ge, lthe union for police officers. . . ·· I Jeff Reid, 45, .who lives on the cast side, agreed. ·. ."I have several guns in my house and he (Finkbeiner) has'another thing <coming to .him if he thinks I'm going to give them up," Reid said. ~ "This is going to hurt average citizens," said eastside resident Bruce Bog· ,danski, 37.

They also would ban the possession, purchase or transfer 'of Saturday, night specials and the possession, purchase, ownership, transfer, rent, lease or display for sale of semiautomatic weapons. .

The fedel'jlt.ion is the parent for Is many as 600 Burns organizations. "Nine men, most of them friends of the poet, gathered on.the 21st of July, 1800, to c~morate the life of the celebrated Ayrshire Bard." That was the fii'Sl-Bilr!ls gathering.

From Dave Barry's opening chapter, "Booger," to Hiaasen's "The Law of the Jungle," the story takes readers on a comic adventure that includes a riot, a motorboat crash' that spills its mysterious cargo, an appearance by Fidel Castro, and a drowning man's rescue by ,a manatee and a 102··year-old woman. Walter Mosley and Patricia Cornwell offer fans a change of pace in their latest novels . · Mosley's "Gqne Fishin "' (Black Classic Press) is a prequel to his "Easy .Rawlins" series.

I was upset when the Car· · dinala traded him to Philadel· phia following the 1969 season. Yes, thePhils' Dick Allen wasa great hiller, and Cookie Rojas a solid fielder, btlt nm McCarVer and Flood were family•. It waa the beginning of lhe dismantlement of lhe great Cardinal team of the '60s. I felt 0 . . . , . . way Reds farui did · · · ·· · later when they dis-covere~ Tony Perez had been traded: It was lhe beginning of lhe end. For those of us who remember, Flood was a-great player whose career! cpuldhave landed him in Coopemtown ..ln actuality, we used to say u•••·· ••wu·• ihirds of the world were covered by water and other third by Curt Flood. He' )¥as a great hitter, runner and fielder. He had replaced Willie Mays as the best center fielder in baseball. · Flood, along with Hall of Fan\er Lou Brock, set the table for Bill White IJ!ld Ken Boyer on the 1964 championship team, and later, Roger Maris and . iQrlando Cepeda on two pennant-winning teams in the late '60s. In 1968, ~ood made the front page of Sports Illustrated with the title, "Baseball's ~sl Center Fielder." Most people, however, remember him for his legal bat~s. -which led to free agency. Ironically, a poll revealed in the late 1980s .that many players didn'teven ~ow who 'Flood· was or what he had done for t~em ..That's not surprising, .lmce these same selr;centered players didn't recognize Jackie Robinson's ~me or his.accomplishments. · !:·- There ·was more to Flood than just his figlit against baseball's reserve ~ause. He was also a player who fought against the. racial injustice that ~frican-Americans faeed in the inajor leagues. . ::'• In the late '50s.and early '60s; Flood. along wilh Bob Gibson, were not iilllowed to stay in the same hotels with·their white teammates during spring ·lJ:Bining in Florida. After approaching Cardinals owner Auggie Busch about ~is situation, Busch bought the hotel to solve the problems of injustice. flighting the system is ne...,r easy or glamorous, but Flood never backed ~wn from his quest for truth and justice. ; Although it might have been easier for me to write on today's big game, ;rtood's death on Manin Luther King Jr. Day required both reflection and ~tention . So even though the Super Bowl may be a game people will talk ~ut for years, Flood's legacy is for the ages. in all-sports. . · ··~ Every player who applies for free. agency owes a great !leal to Flood for !f,!js sacrifice. Every person should remember and admire him for his courage ~d dignity. Like Muhammad Ali, Robinson and Dr. Kin~. Flood paid a fieat price to live according to his principles.

The zebra mussel has done some good, he said,.by increasing awareness of whit an exotic species can do to the aquatic environment. O![ter species, such as the sea lamprey, have hun cenain fisheries; but "the zebra.mussel has hit everybody," Schwanz said.
