'

By BRIAN J. REED
Sentinel News Staff

,

The Meigs County Commissioners approved an agreement between the
Meigs County Department of Human S.ervices and the Prosecuting Auorney's
office at their weekly meeting on Monday to provide investigative services
to the DHS.
Prosecuting Attorney John Lentes and DHS Director Michael Swisher presented the agreement to the board, saying that the agreement would provide
$27,000 per year to fund investigative services to the various departments
at the DHS.
"Because of the nature of the work that the DHS performs, many of the
cases end up in my office.'' Lentes told the commissioners. "Most of these
cases are processed through the Juvenile and Probate Court or the Common
Pleas C9urt."
.
.
.
"We are also asked to help in the enforcement of court orders and to provide security when caseworkers do field work," Lentes said.
Under the agreement, two existing investigators in Lentes' office would
be available 24 hours a day to the DHS to assist the administrative case-

Supports Ronald McDonald House

••

Dear Ed1tor:
I've stayed 1n two different Ronald McDonald Houses I do not know
what rwould have done wnhout them Yes, I do-- slept In the lobby, Which
1 d1d do m Columbus w1th my baby, me and my husband both slept m the
lobby one mght and a male mtern got us mto the house. We were very grateful to be able to sleep in a bed and take a Sllower. My Sister and I slepun 1he
lobby for three nights with my mother m Huntington before we realized that
there "'as a McDonald House behmd the hospnal. Grateful IS not the work
for what I felt We spent three weeks m Huntmgton. Could you imagme that
m a lobby chair?
In Columbus, because of the locatiOn of the hosp1tal , the house IS next to
il, they need an alarm system on the house, they need electnc, and'water,
they need heat and a1r.
They cannot afford to pay a full-t1me cleanmg person, so you do have to
do some light dusung and vacuummg, but you cannot be at the hosp1tal
every mmutc as much as you would like to be. You clean your own messes
up m the house k1tchen and your room and take out the tra sh
The laundry you wash IS your towels and beddmg that you have used.
They supply the detergent for you even for your own cloth~s and the washers and dryers are FREE. They g1ve you everythmg for personal hyg1ene
FREE THE parkmg pass 1s not a necesSity , there IS free parkmg at JUSt the
opposote side of the bmlding wh1ch we d1d use someumes hecause the pay
lot was full
nie have a telephone the hosp1tal can call you anyt•me mao emergency
or with good news, you can call the hospital at any ume They also allow
you to make long dostance calls to fam1ly It is also FREE
Now, about food, they have fully-equipped kitchens (some houses have
more than two, dependmg on the SIZe of the house). In these kitchens, they
have well-stocked refrigerators, cupboards, and large pantries If you cannot
afford to buy food, you can eat the1rs for FREE
If you have come too fast to go home for clothes. they g•ve you clothes.
too, for FREE
In Columbus, they have a full-siZe basement w1th toys and arcade games
that are FREE for the k.ids, and pop machmes that are only 25 cents per can.
'• They do have rules -- very few -- you cannot eat or dnnk m your room.
You can't smoke m the house , but they have mcc smokmg areas with tables
and ashtrays. In Columbus, 1t's a safe, fenced-m area In Huntington, the
front poreh has rockers and ashtrays They don't need to take the precautions
that Columbus needs.
:
And I haven't even mentioned the ~uppon you can get from the employees of the house and from the other famil1cs 1f you allow them ._
So wtth all you get wh1lc staymg at the Ronald McDonald House, doesn't $10 per n1ght seem like a token donation. and that's exactly what tt IS -a donation It doesn't even come close to covering the cost of these beautiful houses. and after all, they g1vc 1f you don't have 11 It IS free, too
So when you pass by 1hose boxes at McDonald's, drop a few coms. more
11 you can. cvcrythmg adds up and 11 IS a very good cause You JUst never
know when you may need them one day. and when you have so many worncs, 1t's good to know that food and shelter don't have to be t~o ol them .

Thus far, the conservat1 ves who

But there is nothing loony about

Bombing plot arrests prompt
q.uestions for terror . trial · juror~s
By LARRY NEUMEISTER
Alloclated Press Writer
. NEW YORK- A judge quizzed
jurors Monday in the trial of the
alleged mastermind of the 1993
World Trade Center bombing to see
if they were prejudiced by last week's
arrests in a r~poned suicide bombing
plot.
·
After the questioning, a juror in
the trial of Ramzi Yousef was dismissed for what the judge said was an ·
unrelated reason, and opening statements were postponed until today
because another juror called in sick.
U.S. District Judge Kevin Duffy
questioned jurors indj•idually about
their knowledge of the two men
arrested in Brooklyn and about last
week's deadly suicide bombing in
Jerusalem.
There is no apparent link between
Yousef and the suspects in the alleged

according to prosecutors, who contend that Yousef wanted to shock the

" It's untrue. malicious, and the

Relations between Giuliani and

campaign. The couple seldom apr&lt;;ar

Hanover has stopped using the

question, one that Vanity Fair attributcs only to unidentified sources.
"The fact that she spends all her time
around him and that she unquestionably idolizes him doesn't make her
his lover," says Andrew Kirtzman of
the New York I cable news channel.
" It just makes her one of maybe a
dozen people he surrounds himself
with who absolutely worship him."
But as persQnal scandals go, the
allegations against the mayor arc
tame compared with the standards set
by Donald Trump and e•es Ivana and
Marla, not to mention Woody Allen,
Mia Farrow and Farrow's adopted
daughter, Soon Yi Pre•in.

To be an amhitious couple driven

and Hanover may be. hardly qualifies
as an unknown phenomenon here.
"This one is just course for the

say," says William Norwich, a
columnist for the New York. Ohservcr.
"On the shock meter, I would say
the sophisticated New Yorker is not

New Yorkers arc far too worried
about the recent discovery ofpower·

What seems far se•icr is whether
New York's two tabloids ignored the

Infidelity rumors bedevil Big Apple's mayor .
By MARTHA T. MOORE
USA Today
NEW YORK- The rumor about
the mayor and his loyal top aide wafted around the. &lt;ity for years. But the
question of whether Rudy Giuliani
and his communications director
were more than professionally close
had never been asked. even by this
city's famously ferocious press corps.
Now. people arc asking.
A Vanity Fair article. that hits
newsstands Wednesday says Giuliani and -his communications director, Cristync Latcgano. have had an
"intimate" relationship for three
years. The report says the alTair contributed to the brcakaown of Giuliani's marriage to Donna Hanover, a
television journalist and actress, and
predicts the couple will separate after
November's mayoral election.
The story has shocked the New
York press. It hit the front page of
both New York tabloids Monday

That's the title of a new program :
aimed at helping people raise good
kids, according to Dan Romuno of
Harrisonville, one of 50 Comm.unities that Care-registered consultants.
· Li~e the old Johnny Mercer song.
"Accentuate the Positive, Elimin~te
the Negati~e," the progra111 focuses
on 30 identifiable assets and works
toward establishing or strengthening
them in the lives of young people.
The program is based on "What
Kids Need to Succeed," a book by
Peter L. Benson Ph.D., Judy Galbraith M.A., and Pamela Espeland,
Romuno e•plained.
More than 270,000 young people
were interviewed mover 600 communtttes for the book. which prov1des
a checklist for parents and kids identifying 30 assets, he said.
·
The as~ts identified invol~c love
and famtly support, dtsqpltne,
friends, aqdemic and non-academic
school related activities, involvement in religious activities and per·

with.
"Know what your children are
doing , communicate with teachers
and communicate with children,
know who they are associating with."
he said .
.
"The ultimate goal would be to
have all 30 assets," Romuno said.
"For the kids to get ... 26 of these, the
kids are in good shape. They will
develop, on their own, resist•&lt;• to
drug and alcohol abuse.'"
·
The program is designed to case
the transition from elementary school
to junior high school, an age where a
child's attitude toward alcohol and
other drugs can change, Romuno
said.
"That transition from elementary
school to middle school is where all
of a sudden the kids that will talk to

.. all of sudden their attitudes ...
toward school. alcohol and other
drugs have changed," he said.
Rom uno classifies drugs and alco- .
hoi as the biggest threat towards children.
·
"One of the things that I· sec ... is
that the kids go to panics, go to someone's house - half of the parents
won't have any idea of what is going
on at the parties," he said.
"There is more alcohol ahusc

than most parents realize," he said. "If
parents knew about it ... they'd want
to put an end to it. It becomes the parents' job to research and find out what
the kid is doing ...
"Teenagers are the single largest
age group threatened with AIDS, and
over half of them are high on alcohol
or other drugs when they have sex,"
he said. "In addition, two-thirds of all ·
adults incarcerated were either using
drugs or engaged in drug-related
activity, or ,gelling money to buy
drugs, when they commined the
crimes that resulted in their imprisonment"

"Drug and alcohol use to some
degree are undermining our educa- .
lion system," he said. "Teachers have
to spend too much time having to discipline a small percentage of the kids
in their class, kids wanting negaii ve
attention."
.One aspect of the program that
Romuno likes is its focus on the
church - or mosque, synagogue,
temple, whatever- as a positive factor in a child's life.
