"We

we should be the folks 1o

Echoing those sentiments is State Rep. Joe Sulzer, D-Chillicothe. "If we 're going to put an issue on the ballot, lben let's abolish the legislature and the governor and just have people vole very

said.
Unveiled on .Tuesday, Voinovich's $1.1 billion-a-year tax hike
features a penny rise in the slate sales iax aDfl increases in cigarette
and business property taxes while allowing for a modest reduction
in residential property taxes.
It now moves to the Ohio House and Senate Finance Committees
for several weeks of simultaneous, daily hearings on the proposal.
Eventually, if the plan gets 60 percent of the vote in both,chambers, lawmak~rs are expected to place it on the November ballot
for a vote.
A second ballot issue proposed by Voinovich, that would have
eliminated judicial oversighl over the stale's school funding system, appears dead as Democrats and the bipartisan 20-member
Appalachian delegation have joined forces to oppose the constitutional amendment:

.
Although Sulzer didn't stale specifically that he opposed
Voinovich's plan, he did say it comes at the wrong time.
"How are we going to tell people to vote for this, when they don't
k~ow where they're money is going? We haven't even defined
what an adequate education is .. J just lhink it's putting the cart
before the horse."
The irony of Shoemaker, who testified against the slate in the
landmark case overturning the stale's school funding system, voting against a tax hike that funnels more money into poorer schdols
does not escape him.
But he said .the plan only offers "about half" of what Ohio's
schools need anyway.
If
"This is jus! a medicine man show by the Columbus poliJicians, if
people back home think they are going to get what they need from
this then they are crazy," he said.
Instead of trying to pick apart the Republican~s school funding
plan, minority part~ Democrats ought to try a different tact, Sulzer said. " I believe what the (Democratic) caucus shoul(j be doing
is submitting their own proposals."

Millennium Bug creeps up on Washington

By WALTER R. MEARS
AP Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON (AP) - There's more muscle than money at stake in
the untested itemized-veto power President Clinton will be, wielding when
Congress sends him spending bills later this year.
For all the advenising of what he called a tool that will "help to keep the
budget in balance," the White House acknowledged in advance that it would ·
not produce enormous savings.
What .it will do is allow him to pinpoint special-interest spending items ·
in the 13 massive bills that finance the federal government. and put them
on public display.
That is a bargaining advantage for the president. The sums involved in
pel projectswon't dent a $1.5 trillion budget, but debates about pork-barrel spending are arguments he can't lose. Nobody is going to argue for "special-interest boondoggles, tax loopholes and pure pork," the targets, he said,
when he signed the line-item-veto bill in 1996.
Certainly not in those terms, which are the ones Clinton and, if the power survives a real Supreme Coun test, his successors will use in vetoing items
in appropriations and in some cases ta• bills.
The coun reversed a ruling that ovenumed the new law, but passed, for
now, on the question of whether the law itself is constitutional or, as opponents contend, an improper ceding of congressional authority. II decided only
that nothing ha's happened to be ovenumed beCause Clinton hasn't vetoed
any items under the new. law.
.
That invites a cenain c'oun chaiiOflge when the 'power actually is used,
and costs somebody federal money. The couns have been that route before,
with varying outcomes, when earlier presidents simply refused to spend funds
Congress appropriated and they opposed.
.
The practice, called impoundment, was barred by Congress in 1974. Until
the line-item veto took effect this year, presidents could only propose to
rescind •pecific spending items, subject to congressional approval, which
seldom was granted.
Under that system, congressional inaction meant appropriations had to
be spent. The line-item-veto law reverses things; the president can say no
to a specific •pending item, and Congre.s has to reverse him. Majorities can
do so, but the one-line measures that would reinstate spending then become
subject to the constitutional veto, and it takes two-thirds votes in the House
and Senate to override.
By the time it got 19 that point on .a di•puted spending or tax item, the
political debate could be too big a hassle for the sponsors to withstand. Clinton said earlier that "the exercise of this veto, ~ even the possibility of its
exercise, would .throw a spotlight of scrutiny into the darkest comers of the
federal budget."
The half-dozen curreni and former members of Congreso who challenged
the law in court said it would put them "in a position of unanticipated and
unwek:ome subservience to the president" in voting on appropriations that
· wcn:n't necessarily going to be final.
The federal judge who initially ovenurned it said the "compromises and
trade&lt;iffs" of lawmaking would be fundamentally altered.
So would the practice of putting narrowly targeted spending and ta. terms
into major bills as riders, to make them impervious to presidential veto.
That is exactly why presidents want the item veto.
"I intend to usc it whenever appropriate, and I look forward to using it .
wisely," Clinton •aid.
. ·
It is a li'!'ited power, applying on I~ to specific items of spend in~. or to
new or expanded entitlement expenditures, or to tax breaks that affect 100
or fewer taxpayers. Nothing so sweeping as Ronald Reagan once suggested when hC said it would usc an item veto to balance the budget.
.
Neither Congress nor presidents can control about two-thirds of federal
spending; it's automatic, for entitlement benefits and for interest on the debt.
Nor could Clinton have used the item veto to get rid of the policy terms
that led to his confrontation with Congress on a bill for disaster relief funds .
His ne.w power only applies to numbers .
.
It could come into play on the $331 million the House voted to authorize to keep lines open for B-2 bombers the administration opposes. Clinton's power to cancel a future appropriation for that purpose may be a fac tor as Congre•s decides whether' to go on with it.

Sally Jo Zuspan, former traum a

A study published in the Apri\ edition of the journal Best Practices and

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP)
- John Andretti always thought he
had the best car for -a superspeedway. With a little help, he finally
proved it Saturday in the Pepsi 400.
Andretti got his first Winston
Cup victory in a one-lap sprint to the
finish, leaving Dale Earnhardt, Dale
Jarrett and a six-car collision in his
wake.
Andretti clearly had the best car
on an overcast and muggy day. But
he needed drafting help to get by
Mark Martin on the I 37th of 160
laps- something he didn' t get nine
weeks ago at Talladega.
"I got behind Mark and thought,
' Not like Talladega again,' "
Andretti said. "I knew Mark wanted
to keep his position. We got a run on
him and got below him.
" Luckily for me, Bill Elliott
pushed me on through. I guess I owe
Bill a check for this."
First, however. Andretti will have
to deposit $109,525, the 34-year-old
Ford driver's share of a $1.6 milllon
purse. The victory came in his I lOth
start.

Indians .rally to post
7-6 win over Royal~
By KEN BERGER
CLEVELAND (AP)- So many
weapons. Sandy Alomar, Manny
Raminez, Jim Thome.
Damian Jackson?
The Cleveland Indians' speedy
utility player pinch-ran for Alomar
and sconed the tying run in the
eighth, setting up Marquis Grissom's go-ahead infield single as the
Jndiims beat the Kansas City Royals
1-6 Friday night
. Alomar, having alneady extended
his hitting streak to 29 games,
neached on a fielder 's choice during
the rally, then came out for Jackson
when he neached third. Though he
has the longest hitting streak by an
Indians player in nearly a century, ·
Alomar probably couldn't have
sconed on Brian Giles' sac fly.
· "'11le only ones who could have
scored there were. me and Damian
Jackson," joked manager Mike Hargrove, a slow runner in his playing
days. "It would have had to havebeen fairly deep for Sandy to score.".
The Indians twice came back
from two-run deficits for their fifth
straight victory over the·Royals and
23rd comeback win of the season.
Alomar sconed the tying run in the
sixth and Jackson, his replacement,
did it in the eighth.
"I think the character of this team
is staning to show," Hargrove said.
"'11ley believe in themselves."

After Omar Vizquel singled to
load the bases with .two outs, Orissom lined a sharp one-hopper to
David Howard at second. The ball
bounced hard off the infielder arid
was originally ruled an error that
allowed Matt Williams to scone.
The official sconer changed it to a hit
after the game.
"It was just a rocket," Howard
said. "Thene was no playing it It was
just hilloo hard." · •
. Brian Anderson (3-1) went eight ·
innings and got the victory, despite
allowing Craig Paquette's tiebneaking two-run homer in the top of the
eighth. ·
Hipolito Pichardo (2-4) took' the
loss as the Royals dropped their six.th
suaight and feU seven games behind
Cleveland in the AL Central.
"lf)'ou can't hold the lead in the
eight and ninth inning, your going to
lose a lot of ground," Royals manager Bob Boone said.
· Alomar is balling .429 during the
streak, the longest in the !Jlajors this
season a~d the longest by an Indians
player since Nap Lajoie hit in a clubrecord 31 slrai~hl in 1906. Alomar is
lied for the second-longest streak in
team history with Bill Bradley, who
hit in 29 straight in 1902.
"I'm not putting pressure on
myself to break any records," said
Alomar, was was 2-for-4 and leads

A..ocleted Pree1 Writer
Shawn Estes might be the best
left-bander you've never heard of.
That could change Thesday night in
Cleveland.
Estes celebrated his selection to
the NL All-Star team by pitching a
one-hitter over 8 213 innings Friday
night, leading the San Francisco
Giants to a 4-0 victory over the Colorado Rockies. ·
Estes (12-2), who lied a careerhigh with II strikeouts, allowed.
only a line-drive single to right by
Quinton McCracken with one out in
the first. McCracken was caught
stealing, and Estes retired the next22
bailers before walking Kirt Manwaring leading off the ninth.
He walked Eric Young with two
outs and was relieved by Rod Beck,
who got the final out for his NLIeading 28th save.
.
· "I had some adrenalin working. I
had to dig deep, I was pretty exhausted," said Estes, who added an RBI
single. "You can see the light, but
you just can't get there."
Estes has won eight straight decisions, and allowed only four runs in
his last four starts. During that span,
he has 30 strikeouts and II walks,
and has lowered his ERA to 2.51.
"It seems like he's getting better.
He had an unbelievable curveball
tonight," Giants manager Dusty
Baker said. "As he gets more comfortable and confident, he's gelling
better and better."

A day after fellow German Boris

" I made up my mind after the

" He was comfng up with volleys

Woodbridge said. "He just wasn't

They began the match under a sky

poking through a patch of blue on the

liiSl set in 30 minules, then served a
pair of aces and a service winn'er

second set before che ineVitable rain
came in one of the wettest of Wimbledons.
After nearly an hour 's interruption, Sampras broke Woodbridge
immediately upon their return and.
closed out the second set in only 24

getting beaten badly, he found himself perversely enjoying the experience.
"It was a pleasure to be out there

Padres ship Vaughn to Yankees in trade for Rogers ·&amp; Duncan
By BERNIE WILSON
· that sent slugger Greg Vaughn back
SAN DIEGO (AP) - Kenny to the American League:
Rogers and Mariano Duncan gained
The San Diego Padres solved
their independence from George their awkward left-field situation by
Steinbrenner's doghouse in a trade dealing the struggling Vaughn to the

Indians ... ;..&lt;C_on_li_nu_e.:...d_fro_m_B_-.:..2&gt;_ _ _ _ _ _ __

New York Yankees for left-bander
Rogers and infielder Duncan on Friday night in the second six-player
deal between the teams in 2 112
months.
The deal is contingent upon
Vaughn and Rogers passing physicals Saturday.
The Yankees also get minor
league pitchers 'Kerry Taylor aqd
Chris Clark, and the Padres get
minor league pitcher Kevin Henlhorne: Rogers, ,demoted to New
York's bullpen, will join San Diego's
starting rotati on. The Yankees will
· pay the remaining $950,276 of
Rogers deferred salary for this season.

Rogers and Duncan shook hands
with teammates before leaving the
Yankees dugout during Friday
night 's game at Toronto. They go
from the World Series champs to a
Padres team that will be hard-pressed·
to repeat as NL West champion.
Rogers, who threw a perfect game
for Texas in 1994, and Duncan have
both been in Steinbrenner's dog-

as the' starting second baseman earlier this year after he made some bad
defensive plays and struggled at the
plate.
"Duncan was relieved and Kenny was resigned to the fact that he
would be traded ," Yankees manager
Joe Torre said. "Vaughn is going to
get a shot at left field. We'll have to
play him to find out what he's got. It
wouldn't be fair to bring him in and
sit him on the bench."
Vaughn, who hit all but 20 of his
189 career home runs in the AL,
doesn't anticipate feeling pressure
playing in New York. He's expected
to piay either left field or be the designated hitter.

''Pressure is when you come Over

here for three players and I fell I didn't get an opponunity to play every
day and show lhe people of San
Diego what I can do ... said Vaughn ,

AT RUTLAND BOTTLE GAS,
WE DON'T CHARGE FOR-SERVICE.
IrS FREE! Our installation includes a lifetime lease on the tank as long as
you remain a customer of Rutland Bottle Gas. And' We Furnish The Tank!
You don't have to buy the tank!
·
If you buy a 500 gallon tank from our competition at $1,200 and that is
what they charge for the tank, that means you own .the tank. If someday a
. valve goes bad on that tank, .it will cost you several hundred dollars to have ·
the tank pumped out and a new valve put in. The owner of the tank .will
bear these expenses.
If you have a tank leased from (=lutland Bottle Gas, these repairs are
free, up to arid including replacement of the tank if necessary at no cost to
you, the customer.
Call our competition and verify what we say about the tank if you· own it.
If you buy propane for one year from our competitor at 59.9tt and pay
$1 ,200 to buy the tank (which is required to get the price of 59.91t) you will
have $1,559.40 in your propane for the first year if you use 600 gallons.
This equals to paying over $2.59 a gallon for .your propane instead of 59¢.
If you use 900 gallons of propane under the same program, you would
have spent $'1,740 which equals $1.93 per gallon. This means. that you
would have paid our competition $660 more than you would have paid
Rutland Bottle Gas if we had charged you $1.20 per gallon for the whole
year (which we have never done).
.
If you were a victim of this plan, and purchased a tank from our
competitor, when the 12 mont~s are up, you are not obligated to buy your
propane from them. You can buy your propane from Rutland Bottle Gas or
anyone else that sells propane.
Also, are you willing to pay "tough" winter prices during 'a mild winter?
We've been here almos,t 50 years and we specialize in service. That's
why we are still here.

Birds are in abundqnce along the river
. By DOROTHY SAYRE .
Geoqe and I lll'll both morning
people but I usually awaken an hour
or two before he
docs.
Early
morning is my
special time. I
like to arise
before the sun
has . come over
the eastern hill
and
throws
. dancing
sunheal)ls across the
river. I make ~offcc nnd Watch the
rnorning unfold. The first sunheam
nr the day. if only for a second. is
gulden. It is quickly replaced with
whm I call "mellow-yellow" light;
the snfl sunlil!hl nf morning .

tc,·ming with llying hirds. With their

n ining back and fonh between the
trees, it is as if they ;m: all greeting
each other in a morning ritual. The
doves coo continuously during this
time. Perhaps they arc truly thp
peacekeepers.
. Before the strong winds of spring
ripped our birdfcedcr from its
hangar and smashed it on the
ground, some of 'he morning birds
congregated there. They took turns
llying to perch on the edge of the
feeder. The birds would grab a few
sunllower seeds heforc relinquishinl,! their tum to the next bird. Cardinuls, chic~adccs, sparrows, woodpeeker.,
finches, · blackbirds,
nuthatches and titmice were eommnn.
But, the real bird watching is
among the trees along the river
where some of the more shy woodland birds nest . Cathirds and yellowbilled cuck&lt;KlS arc two of the more
timid birds in the area, heard but scidum seen. One early morning vi!!il

rewarded me witll sighting a hlack:llld-wltite warhlcr. the lirst I'd ever

seen. This year, I obse~ed my forst
female oriole, too. Last year the orioles obviously had a nest nearby. I'd
regularly sec the male aod could rccogni 7.c his song coming from the
wOOded river area. I never sighted
their hanging nest, though. It is
amazing how camounaged nests can
be.
This season, the river trees harhor
an ca.•tcrn kingbiid, after an absence
la.t year. The kingbirds arc excellent
"aviators" and prnvidc much visual
plca.•urc. Also, in the river trees, a
wren cleaned out the bluchird house
(after starlings and sparrows eha'iCd
away the bluebird occupants) and
raised a brood. One haby wren ,
resemhling a hrown dust-bunny,
explored our deck early one mornin g. He hopped around inspecting
everything with only the sliding
glass door separating him from me,
Wrens are quick, tiny and cute, and
have a strong, melodious vocalization. I enjoy their occupancy in the
birdhouse almost as much as the

bluebirds.
After our morning coffee , we
usually take our daily four-mile
walk. Frequently, our route takes us
by a killdeer nesting area along the
river in Syracuse. One morning we
spotted a killdeer with four tiny,
nutTy, yellow and dark-brown mottled chicks. However, the ne~t time
we saw -what we thought to be that
pa11icular killdeer, only one chick
remained. We hope it was not the
same mother bird.
Evening brings numerous siNal· lows darting, skimming and dipping
over the top of the river. The robins
call their last songs of the evening
and again the riverbank trees arc full
of bird activity. But. the mornings
remain my favorite ... golden sun,
and a quiet time, except for the calls
of the birds "along. the river."

They said "absolutely no" to a hig

to present them with a nice checl;
instead. They refused to accept it. ·
' I am an only child who never went
without. My parents arc still very
gcncmus to me and my family. We
never refused any gift they have given us ov.'f the years. In fact. we let
them know we were delighicd and ,
J;ratcfulthatthey were so generous.
We thought this was a perfect Ofli'Ol'tunity to return some of that gcn-

erosily.
My motlicr had mentioned that
they needed new furniture. and we
thought they could put our check
toward a purchase. We were dismayed when they refused. Shouldn't

Dear Ann Landers: I have a "how

I hope you will print it.
During high school and college. I
often helped out at my church by
playing the organ. One Sunday, I was
running late and got a bit nustcrcd.

Somehow. I went straight through a
red light without even thinking . A
patrol car was sitting right on the cor. ncr. and the officer stopped me on the
other side of the intersection. I knew
I didn ' I have a prayer of getting out
of the ticket, and I was right.
. When I showed up in court, the
police officer who ticketed me was
there -- smiling. I was extremely agitated. And then, to my surprise, he
asked me out. We clicked at once. I
knew that night he was my drean\
man. A year later, we were married.
We nrc expecting our second child
soon and arc very happy.
Believe it or not, Ann, we still
argue about whether he should have
given me thatlicket.- Proud TIJ Be

Dear Proud: If he hadn't ticketed
you, you prohably would not have
seen him again, so kwitcherbcclin' . It
turned out to be a blessing.
Dear Ann Landers: I thought you
might like this little pocln ihat I have
kept for over 20 years. Perhaps it will

UFO community finds common
ground at Roswell crash site
USA TOday

ROSWELL, N.M. - Three ycars ,ago, in a remote stretch of country
outside Kansas City, Elisco Manincz says something happened that scared
and bewildered him and has bothered him ever since.
Last week, the 20-ycar-old University of Kansas student came to·
Roswell looking for answers at Encounter 97, the 50th anniversary of the
"spaceship" crash here in 1947.
After two days of what essentially is a carnival, festooned from one
end of Roswell to the other with phony rubber aliens and pla.•tic nying
saucers, he's not so sure he' lllind any real answers here:
But Martinez may have found something better - thousands of peo- .
pic who feel the way he docs. "It's just so great to talk about this stuff
and not have people think I am cra'l.y," he said. "The UFO community
has a place to meet."
That's what Roswell heeamc la•t week, a sharing experience for those
with a special interest in the night sky. Althoogh not all of the 50,000 people expected to file through here this week arc convinced extmtcrrc.•trials have visited: it 's fair to say many lean in that direction.
They 're not alone. A USA 10DAY/CNN/Clallup Poll of 1,013 adults
nationwide found 31 percent believe an alien spacccrafl'cra.•hcd here in
1947 .
"There 's just too much information for all of it to he fake," said Man:
Feldman. 45, who works for a Houston chemical company. He came here
with his wife, Sharon. and daughter, Holly, 13. Thcy have never encountered a UFO, but "we definitely helicve," Feldman said.
Even the believers d&lt;1n't strike a parliculnrly serious tone here. That's
pa11ly because of a lcstive atmosphere that includes amusement park rides,
a UFO water balloon light and a UFO helly daru:er.
·
For $2, kids from the city's recreation depitnment take visitors through
a re-created "Hangar IK," at the old Army airlield, where pathologists
supposedly performed autopsies on aliens.
Even a church a few steps down from the International UFO Museum
is having fun . A sign outside The Body of Christ church reads, "Jesus is
the only alien who died for you ." Reads another: "He didn't leave in a
UFO. he's not returning in a mothership, hut he is coming back in gl&lt;&gt;·

War, Morgan's Raiders stopped at the ·
Ewing house and Ann Ewing was
asked to fix a meal fiJr General Morgan herself. She refused. George K.
Ewing, the 6-year-old son of George
and Ann, was told to hold the bridle
of Morgan's s horse while Morgan
searched the Ewing bouse for provisions. The horse was allowed into the
house as it followed Morgan wherever he went. Ann Ewing had earlier
that day used up almost all of her
food cooking a meal for the Union
militia that was seni to protect
Ewington.
That 6-year-old grew to become
Dr. George K. Ewing. He was the last
Ewing to Jive in the Ewing/Paisley
House. Dr. Ewing was the village
doctor from about 1903 until his
death in 1918, From 1879to 1903,
Dr. Ewing practiced medicine in
Willr.esville. He was a graduate of
two medical colleges ~ Cincinnati
and Baltimore. He took his surgery

'Pollyanna' Mills is whistling a happy tun·e again

•

•

By SUSAN WLOSZCZVNA
!JSATODAY
WASHINGTON - Like the imposing 19th cenrury
Siamese ruler he plays in the touring production of "The
'King and I," Vee Thlmadge does not appear to be easily
rattled.
.
But it wasn 't until opening night in Minneapolis a
few weeks ago that the actor found the courage to confess his feelings to his leading lady. " Hayley Mills was
the first girl I ever had a crush on," says Talmadge, 41.
later, Mills smiles when reminded of the ievelation.
'with diction as crisp as an English biscuit, she says,
" It's a very sweet thing to hear."
But the Disney discovery from England who won a
special Oscar for 1960's "Pollyanna" and played
scheming twins in the 1961 divorce comedy "The Parent Trap" knows it has little to do with who she is today.
At 51, this slim, striking mother of two 20-something
sons isn't likely to batch a "scathingly brilliant idea"
like her convent-school hellion did in the 1966 movie
"The Trouble With Angels." Or go sliding down snowy
slopes on a runaway boulder as in 1962's "In Search of
the Castaways."
Sophisticated clouds of Hermes perfume waft about
her. Age lines creep about her fair face . Still, you can see
glimpses of the girl she once was, sueh as when she
scrunches up her snub nose when something strikes her
as odd or amusing.
Not that the one-time child star minds declarations of
admiration. Growing up as the daughter of Oscar-winning actor John Mills ("Ryan's Daughter"), she was
used to strangers smiling warmly at her father. "It's like
fmding oneself amongst friends. People look at you as if
they like you.
"That is, until they actually get to know you," she
adds with a laugh.
American audiences are getting to know Mills all
over again. After years of theater work in Australia, England, New Zealand, Canada and Russia, she is making
her U.S. stage debut as Mrs. Anna, the prim governess
whose cultural beliefs clash with those of the king in the

beloved Rodgers and Hammerstein musical.
The actress originated the part in this much-praised
revival when it toured Australia in 1991, although
Donna Murphy took over the role on Broadway and won
a Tony for it
But those involved in \his year-long, $5.5 mUiion
enterprise count on Mills to entice theatergoers from
beyond the Great White Way. " We all grew up in love
with Hayley Mills," says director C~ristopher Renshaw.
"She was a liberating figure for children. On the road,
you need to give the pubiic an extra reason to go. And
she's a good extra reason. "
What Shirley Temple was to Depression kids, Mills
was to '60s boomer brat•. Boys fell for her rambunctious
pertness.t;iirls imagined this lively blue-eyed blonde as
their best friend. In her heyday, Mills received about
10,000 fan letters a monlh.
' "The fact that she cou~play Pollyanna 1111d not be
cloying is an achievement, says Leonard Mallin, author
of "The Disney Films," o her most famous role as the
tum-of-the-century orpha who bnghtens everyone's
life in a small town.
But nostalgia goes only so far, especially when you
have to carry a tune. As noted in early reviews, Mills,
who t~ckles such melodies as "Hello, Young Lovers"
and "I Whistle a Happy Tune," ISn't the strongest of
singers. She.doesn't disagree.
" It is the least predictable part of my performance,
a11d that is one of the challenges," says Mills, who regularly takes vo1ce lessons. "To turn it down because I
was afraid ... I wouldn't have been happy with myself."
Instead she remembers her dad's sage advice: "Sell the

song!"
Mills earns the approval of no less than Mary
Rodgers, daughter of "King's" composer, Richard
Rodgers. "She really has a lovely voice. It's not a huge
voice, but that is what amplification is for these days."
Besides, in 19&lt;;1, Mills had a top-10 hit on the charts
- "Let's Get Togethern from "The Parent Trap.'' "It
was No. l in Hawaii," tbe actress declares proudly. Murphy can't claim that.

Losing Stewart like losing
a grandfather whose tales
were filled with adventure
By MARGARET A. MCGURK
11MI Cincinnati Enquirer

We knew it would happen someday, but it hurts anyway.
Jimmy Stewart is gone.
It feels so personal, like losing
an elegant grandfather whose tales
of youthful advenrure filled our
imaginations with memories that
felt as real as our own.
He was the last of a rare breed, a
movie star who seemed more than
what we saw on screen. At his best,
he embodied the ideals that Americans longed to see when they gazed
into the looking glass of film.
In him we saw morals tempered
by humility, bravery without blus·
ter, strength without brutality,
charm without deceit. He was willing to pay the price, whether he did
right or wrong. ·
From the time he arrived in Hollywood, his combination of smalltown geniality and Priqceton polish
struck · a golden note in breezy
diversions like "The Gorgeous
Hussy" and "Born to Dance" (both
1936).
He made 21 ·films in his first
five year's in the movie business,
but the one that first revealed
Jimmy Stewart the icon was "Mr.
Smith :Goes to Washington" in
1939. .
In that film, directed by Frank
Capra, be portrays an idealist who
runs for Congress to battle corruption. The most memorable scene is
not Smith's triumph over his enemies, but in the middle of a desperate one-man filibuster when be
believes be has lost everything. The
anguish and disillusionment be
evokes in that moment is heartbreaking. foreshadowing the chilling bitterness he would bring to his

best-known character, George Bailey.
Like millions of veterans, Stewart brought demons home from
World War II. According to Capra,
Stewart's years as a fighter ' pilot
left him discontent and worried that
acting was too frivolous an occupation for a grown l!lan.
Capra, who shared some of the
same post-war uncertainties, persuaded Stewart to make "It's A
Wonderful Life" (1946), playing a
man on the brink of suicide. He is
saved by an angel's revelation of'
what the world would be if George
Bailey had never been born.
The film affirmed the popuhst
values of war-weary Americans loyalty, honesty, hard work and
optimism - but it was no simpleminded fairy-tale. The movie
works on our emotions because we
can feel bow close George is to giving up.
Stewart went on to make more
than 80 films, but his best roles
were men plagued by conflict,
haunted by guilt, unsettled at the
loss of their moral beanngs.
Director Alfred Hitchcock made
two of his greatest films with Stewart, "Rear Window" (1954) and
"Vertigo" (1958), as well as the
interesting but less masterful
"Rope" (1948) and "The Man
Who Knew Too Much" (1956). In
all of lhem, Hitchcock evoked a
tortured disquiet in Stewart that
defied his familiar •mage of wry,
easy confidence.
With his lanky .build and diffident sp,eech, he handled comic
roles with narural ease. After outgrowing his male-mgenue period
of the 1930s he made few come-

dies, among them "Harvey" ( 1950)
and "Mr. Hobbs Thkes a Vacation"
(1962). He was nominated for
Academy Awards five times but
won his only Oscar for the ·romantic comedy "The Philadelphia
Story" (1940) with Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant.
Among acting careers, his was
simply astonishing. He worked for
great directors Hitchcock, Capra,
Wilham Wellman, John Ford and
shared the screen with great actors.
The range and number of his memorable roles from "You Can't Thke
It With You" (1938) to "The Man
Who Shot Liberty Valance" (1962)
is unmatched.
His appeal seemed unlimited.
Men and women both loved him.
And he stayed with us as he aged.
When in his later years he would
make the occasional TV movie,
write a book or pop up on a talk
show, it was like hearing from an
old friend who always has great
stories to tell.
He seemed so ordinary, yet better than ordinary generous, graceful, at home in himself.
We needed him.
We need him still.

Rod Steiger: He could be a contender for the 'workingest actor'
By BOB THOMAS
Aaaoclated Presa Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP)
Announcing the new contender as
the "workingest" i'CtOr in movies:
Rod Steiger.
,
Five years ago, the record was
held by Michael Caine, who seemed
to pop up in new movies every
month. In recent times, Gene Hackman has assumed the distinction.
Now Steiger appears the uncontested winner.
Look at the record. So far this
year he has already had two pictures
in release, "Shiloh" (with Michael
Moriarty) and "Truth or Conse·
quences, N.M." (Kiefer Sutherland,
Martin Sheen). Later this year
comes " Incognito" (with Jason
Patrie).
Also this year he has completed
"Tho Kid," about junior boxing;
"Moby Dick," a BBC animated feature for. HBO with Steiger as the
voice of Captain Ahab; and "Animals," with Tim Roth and John Turturro. This month he is filming
"Revenant," portraying a German
vampire hunter. He will (Qllow with

But it was not long after she received her first bad

"It's like God sent them all into
my direction," she says. "I still marvel at how they all came wlth all
these different backgrounds. I'd
hoped it would be a life-changing
experience for so many people."
"Stomp," which features Kirk
Franklin, topped the gospel and Rand-B charts its first week and premiered at No. 3 on Billboard's pop
chart
The album sold 120,000 copies in
its first week, and the accompanying
video is in heavy rotation on BET;
MTV and The Box. This week the
album is No. 7 on Billboard's Top
Albums chart. It's been on the r·andb smgles chart for five weeks and
No. l on the gospel charts for four
weeks.
The choir has appeared on "The

the Essence Awards - quite a feat
for any 'gospel choir, new or old.
Much of th•s has been attributed
to the musical prowess of Franklin,
who spotlighted God's Property on
his "Wbatcha Lookin 4" and Christmas CDs ("Jesus Is the Reason").
God's Property is on the B-Rite

Timber theft a growing.problem
By CYNTHIA JENKINS
GALLIPOLIS - Timber theft IS a
growmg problem for wood lot owners. Cases of timber theft are mcreas10g all over the United States as well
as Oh1o.
There are pnmanly two situations
m wh1ch theft occurs.
Misunderstandmg may occur
because th~ land owner and the logger negollated a faulty contract or did
not draw up a contract. This leads to
harvesting that should not occur.
The other situation is out nght
theft. As 10 all cnme, prevenllon IS
the best solutiOn Woodlot owners

should do their homework. Landown·
ers are urged to check the rep~tat10n
of the logger and the wood buyer and
draft carefully worded contracts Wtlh
the logger It is critical to make sure
boundaries are proper artd accurate tn
their marking.
If the landowner can not supervtse
the logg10g operatton, a professtonal
forester should be hired to supervtse
the logging. Outright theft is hard to
prevent due to the large absentee
ownership of rural woodlands. An
owner who 1s not properly compensated can take CIVIl action aga10st
those mvolved in the case. If the own·

er wms tn ctvil court 10 which single
damages rewarded, he/she may then
go on to cnmmal court where treble
(pumttve) damages could be awarded if he/she wms
Abo'\C all, It IS Imperative that
boundaries are clearly marked and
the contract addresses cettam basts
po10ts, for pr6tectton of both parties.
The above is also true m a roundabout-way when one ts selling limber
to a logger or wood buyer you may
thmk you trust. Under no ctrcumstances should limber ever be sold
wtthout a limber sale contract Timber can be "stolen" from you if you

don't know the value of your stump
age, the approximate board footage
and the grade of the nmber. Even
after you have the contract done and
begin looking for a logger, DONT
BE TOO ANXIOUS TO ACCEPT
THE FIRST OFFER
"' Landowners selhng limber should
also acquaint themselves with Internal Revenue Service Regulations.

suspect the switch is wired"to the neutral and not the hot wire. What do you
think?
A. It is possible that the switch is
wired to the neutral wire, but that
alone would not cause the problem.
Somehow there is a slight leakage
current to ground that is closing a
path for the electrical circuit. This
could be caused by deteriorated insulation around the conductor in the
junction box or · fixture or even a
faulty switch.
Also, the switch should al~ays be
on the hot wire side of the circuit. If
the switch is not faulty, it.will open
the circuit so thai no current flows.
When the' switch is on the circuit" s
neutral line. even when it opens the
circuit, the fixture will he "'hot." If
there are stray leakage currents to
ground,'it would cause the lights to
glow.

For AP Special Features
Most people sec concrete without
noticing it. To them it's ubiquitous
and. worse yet, boring. They could" 't care less about its looks because
it's not supposed to look good. At
first, it's hard to believe that concrete
can be elegant. Worked by skilled
hands, it can be finished in a variety
of patterns, colors and textures. even
to the point of looking like something
else, including Hagstone. brick and
slate. This versatility· expands anyone's design options for that pool
deck, patio or walkway.
Why not use brick, stone or slate?
Each of these is a fine material, but
natural materials (and to a lesser
extent, brick) dictate the color and
shape you must work with, and not
all options arc available in all areas .
Also, concrete is generally less
expensive than quarried materials,
which often must be shipped over
long distances. Decorative concrete is
more expensive than regular concrete, and its cost varies greatly by
location and even a.mong contractors
in 'the same area.
Finishing concrete t_o make it look

like hrick. slate or stone is not a typ-

ly. dry-shake compound also mcrcas-

ical do-it-yourself project. You would
have to invest in the tools and fmish

cs the !-&gt; urfm.:c ho.~rdnc ss nf the concrete . In the case of p~pcr strips, the
granules arc carefully scraped olt

quite a hit of experimental concrete

before you pour the main pavement.
'It takes experience and the right tools
to make concrete look like something
it's not, so it mak..es more sense to hire
a masonry contractor for the job. The
basic process, however. is nm complicated. Masons pour and place the
concrete like they would for regular
concrete, using a 3,000-pound to
4:000 pound psi mix. the typical concrete for outdoor pavements . At this
point. there arc several methods that
cement masons use to shape the concrete to look like brick, stone or slate.
In one method, they press SIJips ur
building paper or a paper stencil into
the wet concrete using a float. For
faux ~tone, the masons cut out strips
of building paper. And for a brick pattern, they buy a ready-made · paper
stencil. Next, the masons spread colored granules over the concrete to
give it the d~sired shade of brick or
ston~. They work the granules,
known as dry-shake &lt;Ompound, into
the concrete. with Hoats. Incidental -

before the strips are lifted from the
With paper latti~.:c , the surtilcc area is trx1 large to do this, so the
lattice is carefully peeled from the
concrete after the dry- shake compound has hccn noatcd in.
. The area underneath the paper

look like s late, stone or hnck To

achieve the faux linish of dry-laid
s10nc (wi tho ut contrasting-color mortar joints). the masons usc stamps,
rollers and mats to press a shape into

the concrete. In one example. a sheet
of polyethylene plastic is spread over
)he concrete. This prevents the conCrete from sticking In the stamp or ·

roller. ]( also gives nicely rounded
edges to each stamped shape. To
achieve faux mortar joints with this

method, the masons spread mortar
over the slab and scrape off the
excess, so it fills in the joints between
the stamped patterns. Afterward, they
usc a rotary Hoor polisher lo remove
mortar residue from the slab's face.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (API State Division of Highway officials
may convene a construction-safety
summit to d_etcrminc what, if anything, the agency should do to ensure
its contra&lt;:tors protect their employees.
The call follows the collapse of a
Wayne County bridge last week that
killed two workers and seriously
injured two others.
Bob T1nney, director of construction for the highway department, said
his agency docs not consider a company's safety record when awarding
contracts such a&lt; the one it gave C.J.
Mahan Construclion ·Co. of Grove
City, Ohio. The company is replacing
the lnierstate 64. bridge connecting
West Virginia arid Kentucky.
The state queStions only whether
the lowest bidder for the contract is
financially solvent and experienced,
he said.
But the latest deaths and the fact
that the division is a defendant in two
lawsuits has Tinney and others re.evaluating their position.
"We're looking to see what other
states do, and we'l.l be talking to the
consiruction industry about what we
should he doing," he said: "It's a dan. gerous industry, but if there 's anything we can do, we should he doing

meeting and could include labor
leaders, Tinney said.
Untd now, Tinney said the agency
has assumed that a company with a
bad safety record would have high
msurancc and workers •compensation
rates that would hinder its ability to
submit a competitive bid.
But Mahan, which is involved in
a handful of other projects around
West Virginia, has had four deaths at
its construction sites in the stale since
October.
4st week. Kim Perry. 48, of Fort
Gay, and Greg Gentry, 28, of
Stephens, Ky., died when two girders
collapsed at the Wayne County work
site.
In October, George W. Robertson.
40, of Prichard, died in a fall at the
Holden Bridge in Logan County.
Mahan was cite,d for one violation .
and fined $1,375.
Later that same a:nonth, Daniel
Jacob Lewis, 26, of St. Albans, died
in a fall at the Chelyan Bridge in
Kanawha County. Steel Erectors of
Newark, Oliio, a subcontractor for
Mahan, was cited for several viola, tions and fined $33,000.
Another death occurred in April
1996. Carval Howard, 47. of Salyersville, Ky., died while working on
a U.S. 52 bridge in Mingo County.
His employer. .Bush &amp; Burchett of
it."
The summit would be an infonnal Allen, Ky., was cited for willful safety violations.
