Debate begins on new
Dayton baseball stadium
By JAMES HANNAH
Associated Press Writer
DAYTON- While the idea of building a downtown stadium and fieldmg a minor-league baseball team has captured the imagmatoon of some residents, grumbling is suuting'to be heard.
A group of business leaders has proposed to spend $25 million to build
a 6,000-seat stadium and attract a Class-A team, helping to revitalize the
downtown.
·
The project would use a SO-SO mix of private and public funds.
That bothers state Sen. Charles Hom, an area Republican who sits on the
Senate Finance Committee.
.
Horn says he's got nothing against buildmg stadiums, as long as it's done
with pro vale money.
"I have a real problem musing scarce public dollars to finance them;'
he saod. "It takes money away from educational, technolog•cal and infrastructure development that is devoted to expandmg real Job-producing industries ."

Horn said jobs produced by sports activities are usually low-level jobs,
and he questmned whetber providing seasonal entertainment would revitahze
the downtown .
"!think what is going to dmw families back.to the inner ciues is the availabotity of jobs there. That toes in with a good education system," .he said.
·'Virtually all of the cities who are investing ~o much taxpayer money m
proless10nat sports systems have schools that arc in shambles."
.
Horn said usmg taxpayer money to bu1ld a stadiUm on Dayton woll sub"dizc certain businesses at the expense of others.
And he said it wilt make it more diff~eult for him to make a case to his
· colleagues for state support of teg•tiil)ate economic development projects.
In addition, some neighbors of one of the proposed stadium sites arc upset
·'over the development plans. They say a stadoum will choke the arc~ with
fans looking for parking spots, hurt property values and damage the character of their neighborhood.
.
·
But the complaints and concerns have not slowed the step of Maureen
Pero, president of the Downtown Dayton Partnership who is spearheading
the stadoum propOsal.
•
Pcro said the residents in question support baseball downtown. but just
: don't want the stadium in their neighborhood, one of six potential sites. And
: she said neighborhood businesses are behind the stadium idea.
At least three other groups also hlJYC proposals on minor-league teams.
·' The Downtown Dayton
Partnership was the 1irst to announce its desire to
.
hnng a team to Dayton and has released the most dctmls.
.
• Pero said baseball will spur economic development by bringing fans to
· motels and restaurants.
" It will bring a younger generation hack to the downtown, and they' ll
· have a comfort level in coming downtown for entertainment," she said.
.. "Baseball woll auract a new crowd. "

AUGUSTA, Ga. -The ooe pull
Nick Faldo did make that was any
good at all came at the final hole.
Even so, he didn't ask for a free
game. That's because he. knows the
rules: Defending champion or not,
miniature golf course greens or not,
no one plays the weekend althe Masters wilhout making the cut.
There are no c&lt;ceptions. Did they
mention that on the highlight show
lasl ni gh;? Or did they run out of airlime aflef ·listing the players whru;c
exollus hy private jet .late Rriday
afternoon made tiny Daniels Field at
the edge of Augusta resemble the
Baulc of Britain? ·
Besides Faldo, also departing
were the winners of two of last year's
four major championships : Steve
Jones, and Mark Bmoks. And Greg
Nonnan. who played lhc protagonist .
last year 10 Faldo 's antagonist. And
Phil MicJ&lt;e.!son, who W(&gt;tl t\vo weeks
ago at Bay Hill. And Brad Faxon,
who won last week.
·
· All gone. All victims of greens so
slick thai one golfer likened putting
on them to "driving on icc," and
another golfer prcpaied l{,r by pulling
a~ross the concrete floor of his
garage.
S;ill, ask anybody whose dcpar·
ture was lhc most stunning of all.
''I am shcllshockcd," Faldo admitted.
. But there was no denying the
math.
Faldo was still calculaling as late
as the start of ;he back nine Friday.
He had gone around the front in 41,
but he was beginning a stretch of
holes where he has played some of
the finest shots in a career bursting .
with 1hem. Faldo wnn two of his
Masters in playoffs, one fmm Scou

RACINE - Southern plated live
. runs in the first inning· and never
looked back in poslina a 16-1 victory OVe{ league·f~ ,Etlstcrn Friday
night in Tri-Valley Conference Hock·
ing Division action at Racine.
Matt Port Dill had a great effort
in pos1ing the one-run win for the
Tornadoes. He fanned eight, wajked
just one, and gave up only five hits.
The other bright spot for Southern
was that the sometimes hapless SHS
defense never .committed an error.
Southern is now 3~6. and Eastern
drops to 1-7. Eastern went down J.
· 2-3 in the first, but Southern jumped
all over Eastern starter Steve Durst.
Defense never helped the cause either
as Southern's Mike Ash started the
rally by reaching on an error.
Dill stepped to the plate and
reached on a misplayC\1 ball in right,
then Jesse Maynard got the firsthit
of the game, an RBI single io left.
Wilh the Score already 2-0 with no ·

.

outs, Joe Kirby was hit by a pi~h.
lhen Nate Sisson singled · and
advanced on an error in the out field.
Two more walks ( Travis lisle and
Dill) and RBI ground outs by Pete
Sisson and 'tYson Buckley finished
off the scoring.
Chris Bailey and Daniel Otto had
back-l&lt;l'back singles in the second,
but were left stranded. That was the
only .hint of 1\11 Eastern rally until il
repeal by Bailey and·Otto carne in the
sixth, when the game was called for
mercy.
. Bailey had. two Eastern hits and
Ott() three for Eastern's total of five.
The already depleted Eastern
pi~hing staff was -carried through
wilh some young talent of Kirt
Spencer, Eric Smi;h, and Josh Will.·
They all combined for 1wo strikeouts,
si~ walks, and 15 hits. ~tern made
nine costly errors.

RACINE-Three runs in the first
inning were all Southern needed'
behind the pitching of talented
Sophomore Kim Sayr~ as the Toma·
doesclaimed an exciting 3~2 Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division
win over Eastern Friday njght in
Racine.
.
.
Three Eastern errors in a comedy
of seven errors, came in the fir:st
inning and proved to be fatal in East·
ern's bid for the win. Overall, however, Eastern's defense came through
with some big plays 1oge1 out of jams
in the Iauer innings, bul the initial
miscues were too much to overcome.
Defense was the name ·of the ·
game. Pitching is often the best
defense and Kim Sayre proved that
Friday .nigh!. Sayre scattered eight
hits, walked just 'two, and fanned four
· pulling the . clamps on the Eastern
offense in clutch si;uations. So.ulh·
ern's defense, afler a ~hoddy effort·
Thursday also came up with some,big
time plays behind Sayre. Southern
made just one error.
.
Cynlhia Caldwell reached base as ·
the lead-offhiuer on an error, but was
out .when Renee Turley reached on a
6-4 fielder's choice. Spe~dster Turley ·
stole second and third, then Amber ·

Rod Stnckland, a strong bench and
a new coach to tum this team into
a formidable force and a playoff
contender.
A great amount of credit goes to
former Rio Grande player Bernie
Bickerstaff for turning this yeac's team
a playoff tea111, Since his emer. gence as head coach, the BulletS have siJown the intensity and effon that
critics have demanded since Webber's arrival in Washington.
· Bickerstaff has increased the defensive pressuR! and forced the former
Michigan duo to pass the.ball to their talented teammates. As a result, Washington is hungry and dangerous. They are a team you don 't want to play in
the first round of the playoffs· when only three wins will advance you to the
conference semifinals.
When the Pacers lost to the Knicks in 1994, they had defeated both
Orlando, and the Atlanta Hawks, which was the team with the best record in
the Eastern Conference that year. Talented young teams on a roll don 't
understand they are supposed to lose. The Bulls will find this team far more
difficult to play ,in the first round than the Cavaliers.
More imponantly, the Bullets believe they can win. The mental aspect of
· ·. the game is far more significant than the physical. The Bullets have both tal . ent and attitude. If they make the playoffs. I 'will look forward to their
matchup with Chicago. An upset is not out of the question. Such a herculean
upset would allow them to earn their new name, the Wizards, a year before
it takes effect
·
.J Naturally, the Bulls will win this contest, but like Miller three years ago,
the young Bullets are capable of spectacular plays and performances. They
.. will give us a glimpse of the future of the NBA. Webber and Howard will
:. finally silence their critics as underachievers.
·
.
.Unlike the Bulls, the Bullets are incredibly young. The attention these
:·. players have a~hieved since their college days gives the impression that they
have been around forever. The facts are that the nucleus of this team is under
'.:· the age of 26, and Webber is finally ·healthy for the first time in his career.
· : As dangeroos as they may seem, their youth has also betrayed them. They
are capable of beating the Bulls one night, then getting trounced by Min' nesota in their next game. '
.
.: .. All young teams have tl)is difficulty. This lack of concentration and inten::·sity separates. them from the elite ·teams which come to play every game.
. ·However, one thing the Bullets have is time to mature. Win or lose, they
have served notice that they will be a force to reckon with in ·the future.

Bidwell, which is nestled upon a lowlyin~ plain in Sections
29 and 23 of Springfield Township in Gallia County, is an
unincorporated village lhat has existed since 188 I. At the time
of the Civil War, there was no Bidwell. The area co nsisled of
woods and farmland. The only puhlic roadways were the Harrisburg-Porter Pike and lhe Rodney-Porter which intersected
wllere the village of Bidwell now exists . Prominent landowners during the 1870s iri this, area were Charles Heatly and
Andrew Jackson PowelL The homes they huilt still exist and
arc on the tour route.

In 1880 lhe Hocking Valley Railway had compleled its railroad connecting Gallipolis and Ccllumhus. and its right-ofway crossed the land belonging to the Hcatly and Powell families. When the depot was built, it was named Porter Stalion
because people were ;1ble to take .the train for the neighboring
village of Poner. ·
·
Soon afterward the Powells and Heatlys built a building
used for a store business. This also became the first Bidwell
Post Office loCation. W.H.H. Frederick purchased land ncar
the depot and store. and Bidwell had its first dwelling. His
children, Maude and Dallas, were the first children born in the
village.
By 1884 lhe present-day SR 554 in Bidwell was built to

The "Sunny South'' showboat was.built in I 90S by

1911 , It was in that Iauer year that the bOat's O"riginal
owner W.R. Markle sold his boat to Coleman lind
Menke, who chan ged lhc name to lhe "Hippodrome.··.
II was known by that name until about
19 15 when the name was changed
back to .the "Sunny South." The boal
met its demise when it was sunk by
icc on· the Monongahela River in
1917.
The first ever performance of lhe
·"Sunny South" was in Gallipolis. The
date was July 4. 1905. The musical comedy "Trip
Around The World" was performed twice. thai day,
once in !he afternoon and once in the evening.
That particular ' Fourth of July was probably the
greatest iq Gallipolis history as the day included a
h'uge parade. hoat ruccs. drills, foot races, baseball
games. halloon ascen~ions and a giant fireworks dis-

play.
The "Sunny South" carried 55 aciors and actresses

Hopefully, it will provide thiu little

Grissom has been hiring the singers hefl!
for 10 years now. The job has grown easier.
"You never know what's going to come
through that" door. I used to put ads in the
paper," he says. "I don't have to anymore. I
get singers from Broadway now, people who
just want to get out."
One such man who auditioned for him a
while ago had sung the entire seven years of ·
"42nd Street" on Broadway. He was also in
the original "Chorus Line." Grissom told him
he might be overqualified for the job, but the
Broadway vetetan told him. " I can citlter sing
for you or wait on tables for someone else."
He ·was hired.
Grissom auditions only a few singersl at a
time now. His last cattle call was in '9t.
"It's not all about if you can sing. It's if you
can take this 6-by-6-foot space and make it
work for you."
This evening is Best of Broadway. Other
evenings focus on just one musical: "Evita"
on Fridays; "Little Sho'p of Horrors" on Sundays: "Phantom of the Opera" is Wednesdays.
Grissom, a lyric baritone, is hooked on
"Phantom."

" I get up on the bBr and ~It it out," he ~ays
with a grin. "It's become my trademark.

Dear Ann l-anders: rm pregnant

given up · on going outside or

avoid listening to people's stupid
comments. I'm writing in the hope
that just one.pregnant woman might
be spared.
Pregnant women are anxious to
have their baby, especially once it's
past the due d~te. Phone calls from
people who say, "I didn' t expect you
to . answer the phone. I was sure
you'd. .be in:the
hospital by now," arc
\
annoymg. And please don 't phone
every day -- ifthe woman thinks it's
imponant for you to know when the
baby arrives, she will call you.
Comments about her size are
NOT welcome. She knows how she
looks and doesn't appreciate bemg
kidded about· it. Remark., such as
"You really are huge. Arc yuu sure
it's not twins?" will not make her
day.
Please print my leiter, and tell

Fun Fair planned for children in Meigs·County-~

Scientist''Hale finds a comet but not a job, he says
· By TIM FRIEND
USA TODAY
What is the most common question asked by a scientist five years
after geuing a Ph.D.?
Would you like fries with that?
\hat joke, says Alan Hale, co-discoverer of . the spectacular comet
Halc-Bopp, sums up the state of
opponunity for young scientists in
the USA. Indeed, Hale, who says he
is currently unemployed, is so upset
that he has begun using the Internet
and his "15 mmutes orfame"to tell
students to think lwice before investing in a career mscience.

"Under the current situatiOn, I
cannot encourage any kid to take on
a career m science," says Hale, 39,
from his home in Cloudcroft, N.M.
''But I want to solve the problem.
and the first step is admiuing that
there is 'one."

Week of the
voung child
cerebrated
GALLIPOLIS-Childcareagcncics across the United States will be
drawing attention this week to what
they do best- take care of children.
Week of the Young Child April
13 through 19 is sponsored by the
Natmnal Association for the Education of Young Children and Ohto's
· aflihate.
Gallia County has rceently
·formed a group of child care
providers 10 advocate for quality 10
the care of children in the county.
The ,Gallia County Association
for Quality Child Care encompasses
members from state hcensed centers, county certified in-home
providers and the Federal Head Stan
programs. The association for quali' ty child care is funded by the state

The problem, as Hale sees it, is
that a passion for science ·and an
investment in a doctorate do not buy
much opportunity today. In an open
letter posted on the Internet, Hale set
,off lively debate when h.e wrote:
"I was inspired by tbe scientific
discoveries and events tllk.ing place
during my childhood to pursue a
career in science, only to find, after
completing the rigors of undergraduate and graduate school, that the
opponunities are limited at best and
are what I ,usually describe as
abysmal. "
·
The overall employment picture
may not look bad. Unemployment
rates for all scientists and engineers
was 1.5 percent in 1995, says
Catherine Gaddy, ex~cutivc director.
Commission on Professionals in Science and Technology, Washington,
D.C.

"This is what you would expect
because of the high level of training," Gaddy .says. "But our concern,
like Alan Hale's, is oyer pther char·
acteristics. such as how long does it
take to find employinent, how many
offers does a person reeeive, and is
the job permanent or temporary?"
Hale says, sure, he was employed
soon after receiving his Ph.D. His
first JOb was at a science museum
t~at required a three-hour commute
each day, paid $23,000 a year, provtded no health benefits and
required a mandatory two-week
unpaid vacation.
" I was among the employed in
the statistics." Hale says. "But what
does that mean?"
, Hale says he has received hundreds of e-mail responsc;s from scientists who have had difficulty finding good jobs.

Hale says anti-science sentiment
and misunderstandin1 of science
underlie the problems.
"I consider the current situation
due to an overall lack of science literacy in our society," Hp)c says.
Science careers depend lar!lely
on public funding, and public fund ing depends on· Congress. which
usually responds to public opinion,
he says.
or the science and engineering
workforce. the biggest group, 46
percent. is employed by universities
that depend directly on federal
grants, Gaddy says. Another 36 'percent are ·employed in private forprom industry.
. AI Teich, director of sCience pol'icy programs at the American ASsociation for the Advancement of Science, says funding of basic science.

spending dropped S percent over the

f9" basic science from which
astropomers such as Hale are paid.
"If that money for basic science
is shrinking, those academic institutions won't ~ire because there won 't
be the money to pay for the
research," Teich says;
Roman Czujko, o{ the American
Institute of Physics in College ,Park,
Md .. says the tight job market for '
young scientists also is due largely ·
to corporate downsizing, which sent
private sector scientists into l!l;ademia, and to the end of the Cold War,
which sent qualific!l scientists from
the former Soviet ·Union into the
U.S. job market.
But despite all of the problems,
most ex pens still encourage children

Also recently, !he National Pork
Producers Council was accused of
improperly using checkoff fund s to
monitor environmental, animal-rights
and family-filrm activist groups. The
issue most likely will be examined by
USDA officials.
Such controversy isn't new. Opposition to the pork program ;s inclusion
in the 1985 farm bill was led by Iowa
producers. and the resulting scuffle
delayed, then almost killed, the riverall farm legislation. ·
Now several legal challenges to
checkoff programs are wending their
way through lower courts, most
notably an appeal by a Kansas cattle
feederthatthc beef program (" Beef
- ll's What's for Dinner" ) violates
his .constitutional rights.

But it's a case being considered by
the Supreme Coun that is sending
shudders through agri cuhu.re· ~ baronies, the commodity organizaiions
that effectively control the $1 bill.ion
or.more raised annually in checkoffs.
The case involves a deci sion by
the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
that peach,, nectarine .and plum promotion programs violate the First
Amendment rights of some producers. The producers contend that their

chec~offs

By GEORGE ANTHAN
. The Des Moines Register
WASHII'lGTON - There's lillie
,question that fC!Ierally administered
"checkoff" programs. in which producers of a commodity must pay into .
a fund to promote their products.•
have been successful in increasing
sales.
, .
The pork checkoff plan, whtch
was born amid controversy in 1984
and continues to generate some displeasure, is to a great degree responsible for pork's increased popularity
because che.c koff-funded research ,
led to leaner meat and because of the
successful " Other White Meat" ·
advertising campaign.
Checkoff J&gt;rograms were begun
late in the Great Depression to help
revive the farm economy, but have
been regularly continued ·by Congress. Just last year, Congre ~s reaffirmed in the Freedom to Farm Act its
belief that checkoffs are c.conomi- ·
cally justified.
These plans, once they ' re
approved by·a majority of producers .
in a federally sponsored referendum ,
require that all producer.; pay into the
fund , usually based on sales.
Yet, there have been recurring
quarrels over such programs" and
how the.money is used . For example,

·was a 24 percent drop in aggravated
assault," the repon said.
In a statement, President Clinton
said the numbers show that his
adniioisrration's anti-crime program
is working.
"Now we must press forward. ·
Fighting the scourge of juvenile
crime and violence is my top law
e 0 forcemenl priofily for lhe n•xl four
years," he said,-calling on Congress ·
to 'pass arili-gang legislation he has

submitted.
Attorney General Janet Reno said:
"These sratisrics show that we can
rnake a difference in our efforls .to
combat crime. Crime has declined
every year since President Clinton's
crime act became law."
But Rep. Bill McCollum, R-Fia.,
said Clinton signed the 1994 .crime
bill in September of that year, so it
probably had little effecl on crime in
1995.
.
Americans should be bracing
themselves for a jump in crime as lhe
number or teen-agers increases over

the nex r few years, said McCollum,
·chairman of the House Judiciary
subcdmmittee on crime.

"We shouldn't feel too secure . ...
Crime is not down ne~rly cnoug~,"
he said. " And il'&amp; goi ng lo go back

An aging popuiafion is contributing to declining crime rares, said Jack
Levin; direclor or the university's
Program for lhc Study of Violence.
Bur parents also should receiv.e some

credil because lhey are taking !heir
responsibilities more seriously, he
said.
.
"For the last 20 or 2S years. we've
asked our teen-agers 10 raise rhem-·
selVes," Levin said in. an intervieY{.
"We' re finally doing·the right thin~:
We' re gelling back into the b1,1sines8
of supervising our youngsters." ·.
