Wellstone touches bedrock.in Kentucky

Kennedy toured this mountainous
hamlet in the heart of coal country
30 years ago, using its beautiful
backdrop to put a face on the
Democrats' war on poverty. Over

retrace the steps of liis political hero.
But their entrances couldn't have

Last Friday .afternoon we were
waiting for Wellstone to arrive at a

waited, clinic administrator Carl
Banks was describing the inspiration
and hope wrought by Kennedy's
visit. Banks was a young teacher at
the local higb school when Kennedy
called . Like the other teachers,

so 'they could anend the speech.
The speech consisted mainly of
boilerplate political rhetoric, Banks
recalled, but what he remembers
most was the ease with which
Kennedy won over the crowd
"I'm a Yankee," Kennedy began,
"and I bet you people think I talk
funny." That was all it took, Banks
said, and the audience belonged to .
him. Months after the speech, his
students were still writing poems
and stories about what they had seen
that day.
"I do believe someone just hit

Victims push _
f or rights
in u.s. Constitution
By ANICK JESDANUN
A11oclated Preas Writer
UPPER MARLBORO, Md: - George and Madeline Calloway thought
their son's killer would stay locked up for at least five years.
Instead, he spent 71 days in jail and was freed after a judge held a hear. ing to reconsider the sentence in the manslaughter case.
Nobody told the Calloways about the hearing. They were outraged that
they didn't have a chance to speak out against the release of Christopher
Kelly for the 1993 shooting death of their 22-year-old son, Earl. in a quarrel
over money.
·The Calloways felt victimized again, this time by the criminal justice system .
"It's like !Xing raped over and over," Mrs. Calloway said.
The Calloways are among the ranks of violent crime victims disgruntled
with a justice system that they believe gives more rights to defendants.
The only way to restore balance, advocates of victims' rights say, is to
guarantee in the U.S. Constitution that victims receive notification of all
court proceedings and plea bargains and the opportunity to address the court
al sentencing.
Afler persuading 29 states to adopt their own consliwtiorfal amendments,
victims' rights advocates are renewing their push to amend the U.S. Constitution. A coalition called the National Victims Constitutional Amendment
Network is in the forefront of the drive.
Rep. Henry Hyde, R-111., chainnan of the House Judiciary Committee,
has introduced the amendment in the House, but also has indicated.he may
opt for the more modest approach of changing existing law.
• That route, Hyde said, "is a lot easier" than trying to amend the Constitution: which requires the approval of two-thirds of the House and Senate
and 38 state legislatures.
Negotiators have been working privately to find common ground in
wording the am~ndment. The proposal has gone through nearly 30 drafts in
the Senate, panly aimed at winning the backing of Sen. Orrin Hatch, Rutah, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. The amendment is sponsored there by Sens. Dianne Feinstein, 0-Calif., and Jon Kyl, R-Ariz.
The Calloways and other amendment supporters have allies i'il President
Clinton and Attorney General Janet Reno and backing by both Republicans
and Democrats in their 1996 national platforms. In February, the National
Governors ' Association endorsed the amendment.
In addition, the Oklahoma City bombing trial helped highlight some of
the victims' complaints. A PenMy.lvania newspaper, The Mercury of
Pottstown, launched a national drive this summer to gather I million signatures of support.
Despite such support, the quest for a 28th Amendment won't be easy.
"I think we ·can handle victims' rights without having a constitutional
amendment," said Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., a member of the Senate Judiciary Com mince. "There's always a concern about trivializing the Constitution."

Robert J. Humphreys. district attorney for Virginia Beach. Va., and a
member of the victims' rights working group for the National District Attorneys Association, said defendants' rights, such as prohibitions against unreasonable search and seizures, serve to protect all citizens.

It's a journey few
politicians are willing
to make these days.
Poverty isn't a popular topic in a
capital where politicians are busy
palling themselves on the bacl:_ for
balancing the budget. From the
White House to the speaker's office,
leaders are talking about the "new
economy" of the information age.
It's easy to forget that millions of
Americans remain behind, far

that's turned large swaths of the
country into a boomtown.

Police issue murder
warrants.for parents
of girl.. buried in yard

IRONTON (AP) - A girl found
stuffed in a trash can and buried in a
shallow backyard grave had been
dead for up. to two months, investigators said.
Police on Monday tentatively
identified the child as Seleana Gamble and issued murder warrants for
her parents, Jack and Mona Volgares·.
The couple and their children - they
had four - disappeared in Augu_st
from the house they rented here.
They reportedly told neighbors
they were going to Aorida or Michigan. One neighbor said the family
moved out in the middle of the night.
Neighbors told investigators they ·
had seen the couple's other children
but bad not seen Seleana since July.
They said lack Volgares told them the
girl was in Tampa, Aa., visting her
biological father.
Lawrence County Coron~r Burton
Payne satd the body had been inside
the blue 30-gallon garbage can for
one to two months.
.The body was found Sunday, after
workers complained of a foul smell
in t6e back yard of the house. The
body was buried near that of a dog,
but investigators said they do not
think the dog's death is related.
·Authorities were checking with
rental agencies to determine if a truck
or trailer was used to remove the fam ily's household goods.
Mona Volgares is from Aorida,
Ironton police Del. J.A. Sargent said.
Jack Volgares is a Lawrence County
native, he said.

Police Chief Rodney McFarland
said Sunday the house had been
unoccupied for about three weeks. He
would say only that the family thai
had last lived there had several children and had owned a Rottweil er.
The Volgareses had fouTchildren. ·
Jack Volgares, 44, was a former
Ironton factory worker who lost a leg
in a Aorida motorcycle accident
Neighbors say he wore hi s hair in a
ponytail. His 28-year-old wife was
described as petite with long, dark
hair .
The house, which is owned by
Nicholas Volgares, whom newspapers said is lack Volgares' brother, is
for sale. Nicholas Volgares had appar·
ently hired the workers to remodel
the house. He has declined requests
for interviews. ·

OAKLAND, Calif. - Elvis
Grbac couldn't believe he got the
pBS$ off in time. Then he couldn't
believe what happened when he did.
Andre Rison beat double coventge
and caught a 33-yard touchdown pass
from Grbac witli three seconds
· remaining, completing an improbable
last-minute drive that gave the
Kansas City Chiefs a 28-27 victory
over the Oakland Raiders on Monday
night.
"II was a good catch and a great
throw," Chiefs coach Marty Schottenheimer said. "We left a lot of big
plays out on the field, but we got the
one we had to gel at the end."
The finish provided yet another
twist in a bitter rivalry that has been
both dramatic and onesided in recent
years, with the Chiefs beating the
Raiders in eight of the past nine meetings.
So deOating was the defeat to the
Raiders (0-2) that coach Joe Bugel
refused to come out to address
repo11ers after the game. The team
also kept the locker room closed,
denying access to Raiders players.
Cornerback Albe11 Lewis was the
only Raiders team member to make
himself· available, discussing the
events in a cQnference room more
than 30 minutes after the game end-

ed.

"lberc were a lot of emotions
beins poured out," Lewis said.
"(Bugel) was very, very disappointed, along with a lot of our players.
Obviously, this was a game we wanted to win, a game that we should
have won, a game that we had, but a
game that·we weren' t smart enough
to pull it out"
Trailing 27-22, the Chiefs (1-1)
got the ball at their own 20 following a punt with 61 seconds left in the
game. Grbac got the drive going with
a 21-yard completion to Lake Daw-son and followed that with a 27-yard
completion to Brett Perriman.
With II seconds remaining on the
clock and the Chiefs out of timeouts,
Rison ran an up-and-out pattern, getling behind cornerback Terry
McDaniel and safety Eric Turner in
the process. Grbac hit Ris'on in stride
for the touchdown, triggering an
end-zone celebration by the Chiefs,
who hugged and mobbed Rison .
"Andre made a great -move,"
Grbac said. "I couldn't believe the
safeiy sat down on il. He made a second move and I was in shock. I just
tried to get the ball up as soon as I
could. Andr~ had a step on him."
Lewis ¥id the Raiders corner· backs weran man:to-man coverage,
and McDaniel told him he went for
!lison's outside fakes and couldn't

recover. Turner didn't get over in
time.
.
"He said the guy just gave him a
double move," Lewis said. "He
playe~ the first move kind of aggressively, thinking he had a safety back
there to help him out in case the guy
took it up on him. I don't really know
how ,to judje that play until! sec the
film, bull just take his word for it. He
made the wrong dccision. lt wasn't a
bad decision necessarily, just the
wrong one for the situation."
Said Ri!On: ·"That was a great
throw by Elvis. The pffensive line
gave him great time. All the credit
goes to the offensive line and Elvis.';,
Jeff George, making his home
debut for the Raiders, had third-quarter'scoring passes of 37 and 16 yards
to Rickey Dudley as Oakland built a
27-13 lead. But George was intercepted twice late in the game, and one
of them was returned 55 yards.for a
touchdown by· Darren Anderson.
That, pulled the Chiefs to 27-22.
' Oakland prevented the Chiefs '
offense from moving effectively after
that- until the final dramatic drive.
. "This is a stal1ing point for us," ·
said Grbac, who joined Kansas City
as a free agent after four years with
the San Francisco 49ers as a backup
to Steve Young. "It shows the character of the team. We can be better.
You look at a game like this and you

·can pow from it."
That's not easy when you're on
the losing end.
"It hwts a lot," Lewis said. " It 's
JOinato hurt for a while. Obviously
we're going to have 10 gel over it. We
have another game coming up."

COLUMBUS- Even before his
first game as head coach of the Ohio
Stale men's basketball team, lim
O'Brien alre~dy has left his mark on
the _program by dismissing three
players.
O'Brien on Monday removed
Shaun Stonerook, Jennalne Tate and
Trent Jackson from the team.
Several factors guided his decision, the coach said.
"It was a thing where we were trying to take into consideration their
obligations in academics, to basketball and socially," O'Brien said. "It
was a little of everything and not any
one thing."
The team now has 13 players on
its roster: two seniors. rour juniors,
four sophomores and three freshmen.
Stonerook, a 6-foot -7 forward.
from Westtrville, was the Buckeyes'
leading rebounder as a sophomore
last season and was sixth in the Big
Ten Conference with an average of
7.7 rebounds per game.
He also ranked third on the team
in points ( 11.6 per game) and second

in assists (3.7) and steals ( 1.6).
Ohio Stale announced Friday that
Stonerook was declared academical ly ineligible for the 1997-98 season.
Tate. a 6-9 junior from Toledo, sat
out the final II games of the 199697 season after being diagnosed with
cardiomyopathy, a hean condition.
He averaged 14.1 points and 6.4
rebounds per game before being
sidelined.

A Hearst Magazine
For AP Special Features
Two new hay fever medications
are now on the market that may be a
major step toward permanently
relieving sufferer's symptoms.
A new antihistamine nasal spray
called As tel in (generic name: azelastine) is now available by prescriplion, Michael Segell wrote in an article in the current issue of Sports
Afield, and 'begins working within
an hour and lasts 12 to 24 hours .
Astelin relieves sneezing and
runny noses as effectively as other
drugs and sprays, but unlike oral
antihistamines it also unclogs stuffy
noses and, because some of it gets
absorbed into the bloodstream ,
soothes itching eyes.
Astelin is a good choice if prompt
relief of all symptoms is needed -

after being biinded by a cloud of
pollen on the way to the river, for
example.
Because it is absorbed systematically, however, Astelin can cause
drowsiness · more than most prescription antihistamines.
The newer prescript.ioil antihistamine pills, such as Claritin ,a nd Ailegra, offer prompt relief with no
drowsiness, though they less effcc tively relieve a stuffy nose.
Astelin costs around $.6 0 a
month, about. the same as prescription antihistamine pills.
Nasalcrorn (cromolyn), a nasal
spray once available only by prescription, is now the first over-thecounter spray tharactually prevents
hay fever symptoms.
It is the only non-prescription
product that -blocks nasal congestion. runny nose and sneezing before

they emerge. The drug has no side
effects but can take up to three
weeks lo provide full protection.
compared to three to I 0 days for prescription steroid sprays.
Nasalcrom costs about $22 per
month, compared to about $60 for
prescription sprays. The drug is a
good choice for milder cases of seasonal allergies, panicularly if the
beginning of the hay fever season is
anticipated."
The term " hay fever" originated
on the farm, where l'ate-summer harvesting and haying caused widespread discomfort in farm workers.
For most people, allergens, the substances that cause allergies, are
harmless.
'
But in hay fever sufferers, the
body 's immune system produces
antibodies, called lgE, that interact ·
with the allergens.

MONTROUIS, Haiti - Hope
bas about run out for hundreds of
Haitians trapped on board an overcrowded motorized sailing vessel
that sank just off shore.
As thousands of grieving people
watched, Canadian U.N. divers
retrieved 2S bodies from the Pride of
Gonave. Haiti's coast guard estimates
is many as 300 passengers died
when the triple-deck ship went down
at dawn Monday in 7S feet of water
just off Mountrouis, a fishing village
50 miles north of Port-au-Prince.
The guard said about 400 survived
by swimming to shore. But survivors dispute those fig'!res, saying
up to 400 died and only about60 survived. Claude Hamel, the U.N. chief
of operations in Haiti, said there were
5 I survivors.

likely a factor in the disaster, the latest in a string of ferry sinkings in
Haiti, where seagoing vessels are
often overloaded with passengers
and crew.
U.S. Coast Guard Lt. St.eve Banks'
. said the ferry .was certified to carry
only 80 people, while Hamel said it
had a 260-passenger capacity. Police ·
said the boat's captain, who was
arrested Monday, insisted he was carrying 2SO people.
Even as divers searched the
wreckage, a sailboat certified to carryJ 300 people left Montrouis with
450 people on board.
·
Each day, thounnds of Haitians
crowd onto ferries, a cheap fonn of
transpon in an impoverished country
whose road network is crumbling.
The government claims it doesn't
have the resources to moniior the vessels. Dozens of boats sink each year.
On Feb. 16, 1993, an overloaded

ferry carrying 1,000 people sank off
Haiti's southern peninsula. killing at
least 700 people. In March 1996,
more than 100 people drowned when
a ferry sank off the southwest coast.
The United States announced it
was donating $25,000 in disaster
relief.
The ship left Gonave Island before
dawn for the one-hour trip to Montrouis, 12 miles to the northeast. At
sunrise, the ferry arrived off the viilage, and its pilot spun the boat
around to allow passengers to disembark from the stem.
Alanned by the maneuver, passengers ran to one side of the vessel,
causing it to capsize, survivors said.
Many were trapped below decks
because doors had been bolted shut,
they claimed.

: As a precursor of Tuesday night's
meeting to discuss the possibility of
Meigs County branch campu s of
the University of Rio Grande/Rio
&lt;;Jrande Community College, Dr. Barry M. Dorsey, president of the two
establishmenls, addressed approxi-·
rt~ately 30 people attending Tuesday's
Meigs County Chamber of Commerce luncheon at Carlelon School in
Syracuse.
· Dorsey said URG ·has a special
relationship with the county, particularly through the community college
which enrolled more than 200 Meigs
Countians last year.
He cited four reasons people
anend URG: very small classes, caring faculty and staff, the diversily of
·degree programs and reasonable cost
"We think we are a bargain," he
said.
·
Dorsey noted some of ·the ·
improvements made during his si•·
year tenure at the school including
lhe renovation of eight campus buildings, new parking lois, a state-of-thelll11rack, ihe installation of fiber-optic
telephone lines and Internet access,·
and an increased endowment pri·
marily used for scholarships.
·
On ihe academic front, the school
has reinstituted its bachelor of arts
p{ogram, extended its masters program for classroom teaching and
added new degree programs like
c'ilvironmcntal science.
Dorsey said the university was in
l~e prQI:ess of developing a strategic
plan for future deve:opmenl when
Meigs Counly Economic Developmeni Director Ron McDade asked if
he would be interested in lalking to
tlie people of Meigs Cimnly aboul a
bianch campus.
