Although mosl people may nol remember the original crank tlllephonc

early 1900's 10 the 1960s. One large part of the disJllny is a PBX swi.tch

what headphone&gt; were used with the hoard. This display is frnm the
Zanesville Telephone Pioneers group. There is a mannequin dressed a,,

From other past employees in the telephone industry are Gallipolis telephone direcwries dating hack ln 1925. The directories c•plain how to make

FBI statistics show murder rate lowest 1n quarter of a century
WASHINGTON (AP)- Serious crime is on the decline in America, due
largely lo the aging oflhc baby boom generation and the effects of a harsher judicial system.
.
.
.
New FBI statistics show cnme was down m 1996 for a firth year m a row.
The murderralc fell to its lowest level in more than a quaner of a ce~tury.
"Pan of this is demographic: Many baby boomers are now tn thetr 40s
and have mellowed out. They are nol committing the high-risk v~olenl. and propeny offenses they did I0 years ago," said professor Jack Le~oo, ~tre~­
lor of the Progtam for the Study of Viol.ence al Northeastern Umversoly on
Boston.
.
But Levin added: "That's nol the whole picture. The other pan IS that we
are doing all sorts of things to reduce c~me: Locking a;way more vio!enl pris-

oners; goiog after small offenses so they don'tlead to \arge offenses.
"We are laking the guns off the streets in high-crime areas; we've formed
pannerships between police and residents. There have been large-scale grassroots effOrts in major cities, and the total effon is paying off."
But James Alan Fox, dean of criminal justice al Nonheastem, warned that
the new numhers are "reason to he hopeful, but not reason lobe overconr,.
denl."
There will be a 15 percent growth in the population of teen-agers by 2005,
he noted, so "if we become complacent and think that all of our problems
are over, we will be blind-sided by analher crime wave.
"We know that in the future there will be more at-risk kids," he said "If
this translates into more violence depends on the e~lenllo which we are will-

jng to invest in k~ds ."
The new r,gurcs arc "a very good five-year trend, hut the improvcmcnL•
arc still marginal. " said Rep. Bill M&lt;'('ollum, R-Fia, chairman of the House
Judiciary subcummittcc on crime.
.,
"This is marginally improved, but we arc very far from an acceptable level of violent crime in this country. That's why every night on TV people sec
these heinous crimes, " he said .

He credited any improvcmeollo Republjcan-sponsorcd legislation that tied
r,nancial aid for prison building to a requirement that slates keep violent
offenders behind bars for at least 85 percent of their sentences.
,
.
There were 19,645 murders in the United States last year, down 9 per· ·
cent from the year before, the FBI's annual repon said .

Dialing up history

By NANCY BENAC
AaeoclaWd Preu Writer
WASHINGTON - In ~ · soul­
searching quest for spirituairenewal,
hundreds of thousands of Christian
men prayed and sang among the great
monuments of Washington on Saturday, eager to own up to their failings
and halt a nation's moral decline.
In a chant that thundered for
blocks from the Capitol to the Washington Monument, the men of the
Promise Keepers thrust their arms
upward 11_nd jleclared in unison,
"Dear God, I am a sinner.... Please
· forgive me and change me."
Kneeling in prayer and rising in
eKuberant stadium-style "waves, "
the men· pledged to become. better
fathers, husbands, fl;iends and
churchmen. Feminists and liberals
saw sub!,eKts of female subjugation ·
and a right-wing political agenda that
organizers insisted wasn'tthere.
Dom\nic
Founeen-year-old
Andreoli of Avon, Ohio, saw only the
positive: " I can't belie :e there are
this many people in ·t~ world who
love Jesus. When I- grow up I want to
be a good dad and a good husband."
Dell Schell, a SO-year-old mutual
fund salesman from Matthews, N.C.,
said, "I came here seeking forgive ness and repentance and maybe to
give my support for a cause that may
bring the American people closer
together,"
Ready lo replicate the experience
across the country, Promise Keepers
founder Bill McCanney set the date
Jan. I, 2000, for rallies at every state .
capitol to, "take roll call" for Jesus
Christ.
.
"Men nave been irresponsible;
men have not stpod strong for their
convictions; men have not been men
of their word,:' McCanney declared'
with the same zeal he once used to
mold championship football teams.
uThe reason we see a downward
spiral i~ morality in this nation is
because the men of God have not
stood together."
On a crisp fall day more typically
described as per(Cct football wcath·
er, the National Mall was transformed into a giant outdoor cathedral
for what was surely one of the largest
. religious gatherings in American history although there was no official
crowd count.

Aathouunde of men lloo!Md the MaD for the
The six-hour "solemn assembly"
began with the blowing of a ram horn
to summon a crowd that was overwhelmingly white ~nd male to worship.
Promise Keepers president Randy
Phillips set the tone for the day from
a giant sound stage near the Capitol
dome by declaring, "We have not
come to exalt our gender as males;
we have come to exalt the man Jesus
Christ who is savior."
The atmosphere amid the "prayer
tepees" and jumbo video screens on
the mall was an unlikely mix of
meekness and machismo: Men confessing their weaknesses on bendcd
knee yet eager to reassen their manhood at home.
·
It was the latter that made feminists nervous.
"The Promise Keepers come to
their rally and check their wives and
daughters at the door like coats,"
Patricia Ireland, president of the
National Organization for Women,
said at a news conference organized
by detractors. "We're here with a
promise we·want the Promise Keepers to keep: 'I promise to suppon
equality for women."'
AI Ross, executive director of the
Center for Democracy Studies in
New York, cast the Promise Keepers
not as a religioos movement but as an
"extreme, right-wing political movement."
Phillips answered-the critics, say·

ing, "No woman should feel threatened by this gathering because the
· ground is level at the foot of the
cross." As for politics, he said, "It is
not political preferences we are concemed with but biblical conviclions."
President Clinton tOQk note of the
political dispute in his weekly rndio
address while·endorsing the call for
family commitment.
"lbere arc those who have pol itical differences with some of the
statements which have been made by
some leaders of the organization,"
Clinton said, "but no one can queslion the sincerity of the hundreds of
thousands of men ... who arc willing
to reassume their rcsponsibilities.to
their famil!es and to their c!lildren
and thercfo_rc to ~ur f~turc . ".
Evangehst B1lly Graham sent a
videotaped message urging the men
to "se.t things right" and commit to
serve 1n the local churches.
Pastors."are frustrated and disappointed by the lack of commitment of
men in their congregations," he said.
With its themes of responsibility
and brotherhood, the rally drew
inevitable comparisons to the Million
Man March for black ~n in October 199~.
t;
This crv,wd was pfl:dominantly
·white, desprtc a cQnCC'\~ effort by
the Promise Keepers to broaden their
appeal among minority groups'.
McCartney challenged the men to do

better, urging "an end to racism
inside the church of Jesus Christ" by
the year 2000.
It was controversy over the crowd
count for the Million Man March that
.made public officials balk at esti- •
mating Saturday's attendance. The
men stretched for blocks down the
mall, tens of thousands spilling out
onto side streets.
Strolling the sidelines, Joan Essenburg said she came with her husband
, from Orland Park, Ill., because the
Promise Keepers had made her busband a better spouse.
"Women whose husbands arc not
Promise Keepers arc missing out,"
she said. "We arc women who arc
elevated and loved." ·
The group drew its "Stand in the
Gap" tt.;mc from the biblical pa..sagc
10 Ezekiel where the Lord ~ooked
without success for a righteous man
to "stand before me in the gap on
behalf of the land so I would not have
to destroy it."

MASON. W.Va. - BeU Atlantic
customers in the 773 Mason
exchange will be able to call the .
Pomeroy, Ohio 992 exchange tollfree beginning Nov. I, according to
a legal advertisement published this
week in the Point Pleasant Register.
Bell Atlantic issued and filed with
the Public Service Commission a
change in tariffs for telephone service
that provides for extending the local
calling area of the Mason exchange
to include Pomeroy. The change is
being filed in response to an order
from the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC), whi ch ordered
flat rate non-optional local calling.
As a result of the FCC order, all
customers, regardless of their class of
service, will be able to call Pomeroy
without incurring local usage
charges. For example, a person
presently with Bell Atlantic's ''Thrifty
Caller" plan who calls any other
exchange in their local calling area
will pay local usage c ~arges . The
same customer who calls Pomeroy
will .not be billed usage charges for
the call. .
Anyone desiring to protest the
changes should do so in writing to the
Executive Secretary, Public Service
Commission of West Virginia, '201
Brooks St., P.O. Box 812, Charleston,
•. W.Va. 25323, at least five days prior
to the effective date of Nov. I. Otherwise, the Public Service ~ommis­
sion may permit the changes without

The history of the telephone in Gallipolis can be traced back untill878.

By WALTER R. MEARS
AP Special Comepondent
WASHINGTON - In the largest peacetime mobilization in U.S. history, about600,000 census takers will set out on April I, 2000, to count some
270 million Americans. They know they won't find everybody: No census
ever has.
Thereby hangs a political dispute, a possible veto and the cenainty that
the census will wind up in coun, again.
Republican leaders insist there has to be a complete, actual head count
-no estimating. Democrats and the Census Bo{reau want to use statistical
sampling to account for people the enumerators don't find.
Tile Supreme Coun upheld the last census six years·after it was taken.
Tile House has voted to send it there first this time, forbidding the use
of sampling until the Supreme Coun determines whether it is constitutionat: Thal probably would take a year or more. by which time it would be too
late for the Cehsus Bureau to test and implement samplingcThat would suit
the Republicans adamantly.opposed to it.
·
They 'Say sampling would be suspect, and could be subject to Democratic meddling. Tiley don't say, but fear, that it would work to GOP disadvantage by adding usually Democratic minorities and lowerincome people
to the count
Those arc the groups most likely to be missed by the door to door and
mail census. They don't answer by mail, they don 't have telephones, they
aren't home, or they just"don't want to be bothered by somebody from the
government
The Constitution calls for an enumeration of citizens each decade. the
basis for ~ongressional apponionment and, in modem times, for the allocation of nearly $150 billion a year in federal aid. State legislatures also are
apponioned on the basis of the census.
That makes it central to both political power and money, a combination
guaranteed to stir disputes. It did ·last time, after a 1990 census admiuedly
less accurate than the one I0 years earlier, the first time that had happened.
Tile results were contested in more than 30 coun challenges from cities and
states that said they were being shan-counted and therefore shonchanged.
A post-census survey, based on sampling, produced the missing persons
numbers, now estimated to be about 4 million. That led to demands for an
adjustment of the numbers, which would have been the first in 200 years,
but the Republican administration decided against it.
At that point, the argument w.S tl\atthe system should be repaired for
2000. Congress, then Democratic, had the National Academy. of Sciences
look into changes for ne~ttime, leading to the plan for the use of sampling,
which ran into Republican opposition as soon as the Census Bureau adopted it.
,
A ban on sampling was one of the veto issues in the springtime deadlock
over flood relief appropriations. finally seuled with compromise in which
the Census Bureau was forbidden from making irreversible sampling plans,
. but not from spending money to prepare for the process.
Tile latest House GOP measure, subject to negotiations with the Senate
on final terms, is part of the bill that appropriates f,unds to the Census Bureau,
which says it can handle the 2000 count for aboul $4 billion with sampling,
or for up to $4.8 billion, with less accurate results, if the change is forbidden.
The bureau promises the most intensive mail and doorbell effon ever
made, with sampling to cover no more than 10 percent who can't be contaCted.
GOP opponents counter that the census would deliberately stop at 90 percent and u~ sampling to estimate the rest. which could taint the whole census with constitutional uncenainty anJ!.politics.
·
"Let us not aJJow them to develop'tcnsusgate." said Rep. Bob Barr of
Georgia.
.
.
But Rep. Christopher Shays of Connecticut. one of the few Republicans
to side with sampling, said the bottom line should be science, not p,olitics,

When a crisis e~ists, how do you
get this message out to those who are
affec~d? How are people to be convinced that action is required on their
part both to stem the tide and correct
the problems? When that crisis has
been around for several decades, and
become normalized, how can people
be convinced that any crisis e~ists?
Nearly half of all Americans are so
poorly educated that they can't perform such relatively simple tasks as
calculating the price difference
between two items at the grocery
store or filling out a job application
at a fast food restaurant. In reviewing
data on educational progress in 1993,
Educition Secretary Richard Riley
stated: "Such data paints a picture of
a society in which the vast majority
of Americans do not know that they
do not have the skills to earn a living
on our mcreasmgly technological
society and international marketplace." Far too many Americans are
so poorly educated that they don't
even know they are poorly educated .
Far too many Americans choose
not to believe that:
-- TV, the child care nanny, is

· damaging to our students.
-- School results are as poor as
they are.
-- Government can not solve our
cultural problems.
When parents ask their children
~'Ho~ did school go today?", the likely answer is "Boring". How is the
school teacher to compete with"the
fast-paced action on TV where a new
· image appears every nine seconds, or
MTV which is every four seconds?
Can we understand the "boring" or
"dull" response from students?
Are we not, as sociologists tell us,
producing youngsters who are overstimulated and underactive? When
the average hoine has a television on
for si~ hours and 47 minutes, and 54
percent of American children have a
TV in their bedroom, is not this nanny a culprit? According to TV-Free
America, the average ·American
youth spends I,500 hours a year
watching television, and 900 hours a
year in schooL Can We not begin to
get the picture?
When we turn our attention to the
type of shows they' watch, a very high
percentage that are best described as
'garbage', unplugging the boob tube
makes· the most sense. lust imagine
the impact even of ~ommercials, the
average child seeing 20,000 a yeaf.
As Michael Medved ha• pointed
out: "The whole idea of television is
to foment an immediate demand for
something right away ... It encourages
voices that say, 'I want'.'' This leads
to frustration and also inhibits our
ability to defer gratification and
develop our mind. Even college
teachers note that it has become com-

monplacJ, for students to wander' in
and out of classrooms and talk, eat,
and read newspapers, as if they were
watching TV. •
.
Now we have this full page ad in
TV Guide by ABC stating that TV is
good. This is the Disney owned network who presented NYPD Blue and
Ellen and this faH caps off their proof
with .Nothing Sacred. Their anti·
family programming can only serve
to produce more dysfunctional children and families.
The brute power of the federal
government is once again threatening
the local schools by imposing national testing, if the White House has its
way. This testing is a way of dictating what will be taught and how it
will be taught in the local classroom,
funher removing decision making
from where it needs to be exercised.
We already know from numerous
other tests how students are progressing. National test~ will result
in a one size fits all curriculum dictated by the test itself. If the bureaucrats want whole language and some
teachers know that phonics works
best, guess which one will be used'
The national impact comes not
only from the administration but
from the National Education Association, the most powerful union .in
America. It has worked diligently to
promote the nationaliza• ·on of edu·
cational standards - tc msure complete uniformity in teaching content,
methodology, administration, and
outcome. II has spent millions of dollars fighting against school choice
measures that would allow parents to
choose the best schooling options for

their children according to their own
criteria. Today. less than 4 percent of
the union's vast annual budget is actually spent on instruction img profes·
sional development. All the rest is
poured in!o maintaining and expand. ing the union's dominating control
over~~~ Aml!tican education debacle.
When you hear otherwise. that the
'NEA is so good, get involved enough
to look up the many resnlutions they .
have passed id recent years at their
annual meetings.
If Americans arc to truly hcgin the
jpumcy back to a sound educational
system, we.must fir.;t be awakened to
the present conditions, become famil·
iar with the reasons we arc in this crisis, and then decide to do something .
to help. We now have a monopoly. II
is financed by compulsory ta~ation,
has a captive audience, and dissatis. fied parents have no option but private schools and pay twice for their
child's education: once in ta~cs and
again in tuition.
Whether we like it or not we are
in an international marketplace. How
can our businesses and commercial
establishments continue to compete
in this arena without seeing a.major
overhaul of oursystem?Consider this
quote from the National Commission
on Excellence in Education: "If an
unfriendly foreign power had
attempted to impose on America a
mediocre educational s~stem it could
not have devised one worse that the
one we presently have." How could
this have happened?

electriC Utility deliegulatl'On plan
S•op
I'
Dear editor,
As one of the many employees
workingjn the utility industry, I am
dismayed that the state is_planning on
deregulaling the electric power industry.
Not only will it mean thousands
of lay-offs in 'my industry, but consumers will face a lower quality of
service possibly at a much higher
price.
The plan would allow independc;nl
power producers to sell their electricity on the open market, and it
would remove regulation of electricity rates. Power producers would be
llble to choose what neighborhoods to
sell in and what neighborhoods they
want to avoid. Tiley would , for the
first time, begin telemarketing, like
the telephone companies to now. And
they would be allowed to pass on any
costs created by environmen.tal-&lt;e•·
· ulations and lower propeny values
(something they can't do now).
Big business has long been tight·
ing to make the state give up its co11-

subcontractors.
Let's face i~ America is slowly
devolving into one humongous bill-.
board. Public facilities and private
property - allare being enveloped by
the mushrooming monster of commerciii.Jism.
It showed up first on highways
and ballpark fences. Then it sptead to
buses and subways, and then to air~fuselages.
Now the monster is devouring
everything -- the electromagnetic
spectrum, schools, sp&lt;trU arenits and
stadiums, johns alld urinals. and
even, so help me, individual pieces of
fruit. No joke, theylare now advertising movies on stickers pasted to

Water not contaminated by leak

COLUMBUS -A chemical that leaked after an e~plosion lastlll(jnth
at the Georgia-PaCifoc plant has not contaminated area water wells, the
Ohio Environmental Protection Agency said.
Tile agency drilled about 30 holes through conctete at the south Columbus plant to find out if phenol-contaminated water leaked into the ground .
. Tests found that the level of phenol ranged from six to 12 parts per
million, EPA documents show. That js sligl\tly above what is considered
the normal standard of four parts per million in drinking water.
Higher levels of phenol in drinking water have been known to cause
dianhea; mouth sores and muscle aches.
Andy Norman, Georgia-Pacifoc general manager, said he expected some
phenol-tainted water to seep into the ground through cracks in the concrete.
Phenol is used to make resins, plastics and adhesi~. The chemical
was being mixed with formaldehyde and sulfuric acid at the time of the
Sept. 10 explosion. ·
One worker was killed in the blast. Ten others were injured.

Development chief eyes new job
TOLEDO - Donald lakeway, director of the ·Ohio Department of
Development, could be taking over the job of running the Regional Growth
Partnership, a local economic development group.
Dennis Johnson, pannership chairman and head of its e~ecutive committee, said committee members voted 5-0 Thursday to offer Jakeway \he
vacant job of president
'
His salary: job responsibilities and starting date will be 11tgotiated, Johnson said.
, ·Tile former president at the growth partnership, Rick Weddle, was paid
$145,000 and received a $20,000 bonus last year. He left in the summer
to take a similar post in Phoenix.
Messages left Friday for Johnson and lakeway were not immediately
returned.
Jakeway, who lives in Hilliard, was in Toledo on Wednesday for a
lengthy second interview for the post He was the only person recom·
mended by the pannership's search committee.

Gift to help college teach civic duty
DEFIANCE - Defiance College will use a $1 million gift from the
Diehl Family Foundation to teach civic responsibility, school officials said.
The donation will provide $1 00,000 annually to the new Program for
Responsible Citiunship, which is part of the arts and humanities depanment, officials said Thursday.
As pan of the program, an annual theme will be chosen to guide academic programming. This year's focus is "serving globally."
"We are developing the student as a whole person." program director
Bruce Busby said ... As a good member of the community, a member of
your church, and to participate in city, state, or federal government, ... you
need to have a glo6al unilerstanding."
William Diehl, trustee of the foundation, said he hopes t1Je grant will
allow students to positively influence the course of modern events.

Grant to aid community relations
HAMILTON- A $125,000 federal crime-fighting grant will·go toward
improving police and community relations. ·
The grant will be used to increase police bike ·patrols and narcotics
enforcement in high-crime areas and provide programs at the Booker T.
Washington Community Center, spokesmen said.
.
"We're ecstatic," said Ron Woolwine, chairman of a commiuee that
worked for two years Jo get the grant. "This is one way to bring it lot of
people together and to edueate them. Right now, we need to do some healing and. do something positive." .
There was civil unresj in pans of Hamilton, a city of about65,000, after
a prisoner died while iii pol 'ce custody. A police department investigation concluded that officers did nothing wrong in the Aug. 7 death of Russell Rodgers, 25, who had a seizure in jaiL Butler County Coroner Richard
Burkhardt ruled that Rodgers died of cocaine abuse.

Aleoclated Preas Writer
WASHINGTO)'l - In 1992.
Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio,
took a stand. Since the American military banned homose~uals in the
rankS,' Kenyon would ban military
recruiters from its campus.
That policy lasted e~actly five
years. After being placed on a goverpment blacklist, the oldest private
college . in Ohio capitulated under
threat of a significant loss of federal
dollars.
Dean of Students Donald J. Om ahan said the school abandoned its
policy in September because the
government ,made the cost of res is·
tance impossibly high.
''I'm not happy about the decision
we had to make," he said.
Kenyon had been amon ~ a handful of holdouts that con?.nued to
refuse campus access .to th&lt;: mili~ry
despote mcreasrng pressure from
Congress.
In 1994- with the overwhelming
support of Ohio representatives the House passed an amendment
forcing colleges to choose oetwccn
their hardline anti-discrimination
stands ·and cold hard cash.
The first law of its type made such
schools sacrifice Pentagon grants
and contracts if they refused to coopcrate with the nilfitary. ....
Across the country, small colleges

that didn't get much - orCiony Defense Department money fnunu it
easy to retain policies of defiance.
This year, the stakes becamc'high'
er: a threatened cutoff of almost all
federal funds - not just Defense'
Department funds .
·
·
For Kenyon's I ,540 students, that
. would have meant the loss of
$159,826 wonh of grants, $75,000 in
work-study funds and $9,744 in
direct student loans.
"The impact the cuts would have
had on our students was unthink·
able ... Omahan said.
. The same1 pressure convinced
most of the other·holdout schools to
allow recruiters on campus.
Left on the list are 17 colleges in
Connecticut, which arc in a peculiar
legal situation because of a state coun
ruling, plus two holdout law schools:
American University's Washington
' College ~fLaw in Washington, D.C.,
and William Mitchell College of
Law in St. Pa.,l, Minn. ·
· "It's a very dif(icuh issue to deal
with," said Harry Haynswonh, dean
of the Monncsota school. "It's basically a Hobson's choice. It's the kind
oflhing people feel strongly about on
both sides. "

Haynsworth wouldn 't say how he
will advise the school 's board of
trustees, 'which has authority to

CLEVELAND (AP) - The city
has recovered more than half the
$617,597 it mistakenly wired to an
anti-crime group, but a court-appoint·
ed receiver was not sure Friday how
much has been returned.
"It is a very difficult process at
thi's point," receiver Hilary Taylor
said following ahearing in Cuyahoga
County Common Pleas Court.
The hearing, pan of a lawsuit the
city has filed against Black on Black
Crime Inc.. was aimed at geuing ·
more of the money back. Two of the
group's leaders - chairman Abdul
Rahim Ali Hasanh and founder An

McKoy ~ have been charged with
grand theft.
Taylor said at least $380,000 in
cash and two cars - a Cadillac and
a Mercedes - have helm recovered.
But some of the wi~dfall apparently
was invested in property with an
undetermined value 111\d not all the
returned money has been counted,
Taylor said.
A clerical error by a city employee resulted in Black on Black Crime
receiving t~e money in ApriL City
officials caught the error in August
and McKoy and Hasan were arrested last month.

llg.urc out whether giving in to the
lcdcral government would put the
college in violation of Minne sot~'s
hr Jd human rights statute .
"Some people think that if w~ let
the mil(taey on campus il would violate the statute," he said.
"Nobody has tested the statute in
this connection before."
Haynswonh has heard from some
J)eople for whom " it's a matter of
pride to say 'stick it to the military,"'
but, said his school ha..n 't had an
adversarial attitude.
'
· Even though the military hasn't
recruited at William Mitchell since
1987, its graduates are referred on
request to the ,local recruiting office:
One recent graduating class included
at least five people who enlisted in
the Judge Adjutant General corps, he
said.
The government has frozen some
$419,000 in federal student aid for
which the law school was eligible fo•
1997-98, incfuding 'the work-study
funds that suppon students who clerk
at the Minnesota Supreme Coun.
"Unfonunately, maybe the dollar
is more irilp!l.(lant than the principled
approach... said Winnie Stachelberg,
political director of Washington·
based Human Rights Campaign. "I
would like to say that the price of
principle should be higher than a stu·
dent's loans."
The gay-rights advocate said her

*THE ,

organization will continue to push for
repeal of the federal-aid penalty, but
she didn't sound optimiSiic.
"It's not just principle vs. dollars.
It's the fact that (Rep.) Gerald
Solomon created that choice for these
institutions. To many. that's a
tragedy~· she said.
Solomon, R-N.Y. , created the
strategy that forced the colleges to
make their choices.
An ex-Marine who offered a measure in 1982 denying student aid lo
· young men who did not register for
the draft, Solomon viewed barricades
to recruiters as an impediment to
building a .strong all -volu~tcer military.
"The readiness 0 f our Armed
Forces is on the wane," he said,
proposing to reverse the slide by
helping recruiters explain military
opportunities to 111ore top-night students.
Solomon described his successful
amendment as "telling recipients of
federal moneY. at colleges and universities that if you do not like the
Armed Forces, if you do not like its
policies, that is fine. That is your first·
amendment rights. But do not c~pect
federal dQIIars to suppon your inrcrfcrcncc with our military recruiters. "
At Kenyon, a student activist is

BY CATHERINE BRALEY
TIMES - SENTINEL STAFF
They are noted for being
wealthy, fanatical , and such fashio~
plates that their earrings match their
shins, that of course match their
child's team uniform.
They are the buu of jokes and
sneers, yet such an indomitable
force on the political landscape that
Bill Clinton and AI Gore couned
their votes and won an flection.
They are soccer moms, a subcultural phenomenon with far reaching
importance on how American
women are once again reinventing
themselves.
The sport of soccer is a hotbed of
controversy" as it tries to gain a
place. on the national psyche. Critics scoff at its low point scoring and
hard to follow play. Fans see the
lack of acceptance as a sociopoliti.cal issue. One popular bumper
sticker that makes the rounds at
matches, sums it up quite well "Annoy the media, play soccer."
And, Nike, the clothing empire,
plans to go global and conquer the
soccer market by upsetting Umbro
as the defining logo of choice. Soccer invokes strong sentiment no
mauer what the view.
,
That leads to who and what is a
soccer mom, and why, unlike any
other "mom activity" has this come
to define something quite unique on
the -:\rtteri&amp;n 'social scene?
Area mothers attending ihe
recent Point Pleasant soccer tournament, gave their definition of who is
a soccer mom,
"You want the truth? Someone
with more money than brains. Xou
see them wearing these $75.00 'soccer moms' sweatshins, or worse yet
the entire family is running around
in color coordinated clothes, and
you just want to g~g. I've seen the
moms wear the team IOJIO on a
sweatshirt, lhe dads are wearing it
on a polo, and the younger siblings
are in matching Club' shirts. You just
want to say get real, and get a life.
Would someone please tell these
women that its taeky 'to wear spanslogo jewelry? Of course the worse '
part is, you hate for your child to

play a team like that. The more
matching accessories a team has, the
better it is, and the more likely your
team is going to get its butt kicked
on the field." confined one mother
out of car shot of a group of well
dressed and highly vocal mothers
from an opposing team.
For Leota Sang of Point Pleasant,
the term has a more positive spin. A
soccer mom is in her view, 11 0ne
who attends all their children's
games., They devote a lot of time to
the sport. I never knew it was a
political term. It just might be that
there are more practices and games\

and the moms are the ones who are
there because the dads are working.
We play year round, indoor and outdoor both. We love it. The first
time my son said he had to travel to
New Jersey to play a soccer game, I
said there was no way we'd do that.
But we went and we're going back
again. We really enjoy it that
much."

Brenda Long agrees, "When
your kid is that enthused about
something you're right there too. "
Another mother, who declined to be
identified didn't care for the Bill
Clinton connection. "Don 'I tell
that.. .. they (other mothers) just
might pull their kids out of soccer,"
she said with a laugh. "Its just a
good healthy sport. It keeps them in
shape, plus it requires a lot of
thought. It is a thinking sport. With
football you just get in there and hit
and shove." . '
Point Vonex's Paula Simpkins
proudly labeled soccer moms as
"aggressive." Citing a lack of community suppon, she defended the
mom's involvement as necessary.
"Soccer is not a money making
spon like football, and is seen here
as an elitist spon. If we weren't
here there wouldn't be any suppon.

forms . I feel my children are more
skilled athletically because of soccer. Its definitely a more sophisticated sport." ,
Visiting soccer mom Lisa Pettrey
from Kentucky saw first hand what ·
political power the group holds

natwnally. "Yes, I've been in AI
Gore's office and I've 'seen his photographs on the wall of his children
playing soccer. B~reaucrats don't
like soccer moms because we are

truly worried about the welfare of
our children, not just in spons but in
education. Children always come
last in line when it comes to the government."
Pettrey admits that locally soccer
does not enjoy the strong hold on
children's time that it does in other
parts of the country. "In Syracuse
600 kids try out for a team; llere
we're lucky if we can field a team.
It's · a great game to play. Unlike
basketball where you have to have
$1 00 shoes or be a certain body type
or certain height, in soccer it doesn't
matter. Soccer is very-democratic."
Soc~er though has taken its toil
on Pettrey's personal life. Constant
battles with school officials for field
time and funding cost her a teaching
job within the school system. "the
administrators believe soccer k1'ds
are from wealthy families; but we're
in the $35.000 range and we put
soccer and education ft..t. In our
school you aren 'I allowed to have a
high school soccer game on the
football field on a Friday night even
if the football team is out of town.

In 1934 Emma Gatewood Kerns
became probably the most famous
person in Gjillipolis. Her celebrity
came as the result of a trip she took
with her niece. Emma's niece was
Mrs. Odd Mcintyre. On the trip to
California Aunt Emma became the
toast of Hollywood as she showed
up at numerous parties given by
Hollywood's elite.
•
Emma Gatewood was born April
23, 1852 between Swan Creek and .
Crown City. Her parents were James
and Elizabeth Lowry Gatewood. Her
father was a captain during the Civil
War and her brother (also named
James) was the last Civil War veteran in Gallia County to die. His death
came in 1943. '
Emma's father came to Gallipolis
about 1868 and began a furniture
factory with W.C. Fuller and the
Hutsinpillar fa1nily. ·James Gatewood Sr. also owned a sawmill on

By AMY SELWYN
Anoclated Pre•• Writer
NEW YORK - It's all in the
shoes.
Beneath a white terry-cloth robe
borrowed from a New York hotel,
Janeane Garofalo sports a T·shin and
a pair of brown pants with uneven,
sliahlly frayed hems. At 5-foot·l,
Garofalo admits length can be a prol&gt;lem. But she's got a solution and, like
the actress herself, it's eminently
practical, if not a little oftbeat: real ly big shoes.
"I bought these for the Emmys."
beams Garofalo, holding up a black
suede platform of considerable
dimension. "'! ne~ded tall shoes
because my pants were too long and
I knew I was never going to get them
hemmed. I just know me." She pauses. care~lly examining the shoe.
"Now I' getting my money's worth
out of 'e ."
The shoes give Garofalo an ad.ditional four inches. ·But the 33-yearold former "Saturday Night Live "
jtar, and scene-stealer from such
films as "Romy and Michele's High
School Reunion" and "The Truth
About Cats and Dogs," doesn't really need the extra stature.
Confident and quirky. Garofalo is
now a bona fide star, appearing in the
romantic comedy, "The Matchmaker."
But it's all relative for Garofalo.
This half-Italian, half-Irish, New Jersey transplant says she may have the
leading role but, hey, "The Match·
maker" is still a small film by Hoi-

lywOod standards.
,
"It's my favorite one I've done so
far," she says. "I even think !like my
work in it. And being in Ireland was
one of the best experiences I've ever
had. But I don't know what the
expectations are for this film. I mean.
I don't think it's going to be a big
blockbuster."
Stardom produces mixed feelings
in the one-time stand-up comedian.
"It was nice to be in every scene,"
says Garofalo. "But, there's also
something fun about being the SUJ&gt;porting role. The reviews don't hinge
on you. You can steal the show.

It's always sad when actors fall
victim to mediocre scripts, but it's
especially demoralizing when the
performers are people like Morgan
Freeman and Ashley Judd, who both
•
·
deserve far better.
In "Kiss the Girls," a mediocre
murder mystery with an interesting
premise that occasionally transcends
its material. Freeman and Judd are the
two bright spots. If the movie's
wonh seeins; at all, they are the two
·
reasons.
. Director Gary Fleder has produced a muddled, dark, but at times
engrossing psychodrama about a
stalker who calls himself Casanova
and, while capable of.killing, does
not dwell on it.
"This guy's a co(lector,'' says
Alex Cross (Freeman), the forensic
psychiatrist who travels down to
.Durham, N.C., to help investigate the
disappearances of more than a half·
dozen attractive, strong and talented
yoilng women, including his niece.
The film is conventional from the
get-go, using incredibly (and annoy·
ingly) standard ways of establishing
Dr. Cross and Kate McTiernan
(Judd), the young, attractive medical
intern who will become Casanova's
next specimen.
"Kiss the Girls" begins to gain
momentum in the middle, after Kate
- using the kick-boxing that is her
hobby to escape her captor - joins
forces with Dr. C~oss to find the
killer. What Tallows is a roller-coaster of set-up shocks, run-through-thewoods camerawork and violence
against women that is rarely boring,
if usually distasteful and unnece~sary.
Where does strong psychological
drama become merely prurient and
obtrusive? This movie doesn't seem
, to know; sadism that proves a point
can make for good filmmaking, but
much of this cruelty seems merely
vindictive and sexually self-indul·
gent.
It's difficult to decide whether a
killer who preys on strong, competent
women represents progress or backsliding in the depiction of women in
cinema. On one hand, it's refreshing
·to see in Judd a self-pos.~cssed female
lead who knows who she is and is
psychologically strong. But below the
surface of this panicular killer seems
to lie a terrifying anger targeted particularly at females who have the
temerity to be anything more than pli·
ant and deferring.
Freeman is his usual competent
self as the restrained Dr. Cross. who
-except for an obligatory now-this··
is-personal outburst - retains his
cool and delivers a muted, effective
· performance. Cary Elwcs is solid as
Nick Ruskin, a Durham cop who
works with Cross, and Jay 0.
Sanders, a great character actor, turns
in his usual effective supporting
effort as an FBI agent.
Judd has the potent-ial to become
one of the decade's most memorable
actresses, though hopefully she 'II be
given better material in short order.
She has a rare combination of lumi·
nosily and strength and an angelic,
girlish face that that sometimes,
abruptly, displays striking maturity. It
is an amazing lransformation: Judd
doesn't move a· muscle, but she adds
depth to her face willfully whenever
the situation requires.
"Ki~s the Girls" is not a whodunit
for long ... or is it? The film never lets
you know quite what's going on, and
its gradual release of information so 'crucial in a suspense film - is
sometimes done right, sometimes

mishandled. An interesting twist
halfway through spices things up
(hint: if plastic surgery bothers you,
stay away).
There's really nothing technically
wrong with this movie: it's interest·
ing, it!s got the prerequisite one-two
punch of violence and implied se~
that draws audiences to major-market
movies. And it's got two great people in Freeman and Judd.
Unfortunately, it rarely proves
better than just mediocre. And it's
often - frustratingly -just a little
bit worse.
"Kiss the Girls" is directed by
Gary Fleder and produced by David
Brown and Joe Wizan from a screenplay by David Klass. It is rmcd R.

Study finds kids do better in

USA Today
Children are more likely to get
mostly A's and less likely to repeat a
gr'!de or be expelled if fathers are
highly involved in their schools, an
Education Department study said
Thursday.
The findings hold whether the
falhers live with their children or
whether mothers also· arc active,
according to the study by the National Center for Education Statistics.
Involvement is defined as participation in school meetings, a teacher
conference. a class meeting or vol unteering. High involvement is participation in three or four activities.
The stu~ based on inlcfvicws
with parents and guardians of almost
17,000 students in early 1996. found :
• In two-parent households where
both were highly involved, 51 percent
of the children got mostly A's: 48
percent did so when only the father
was highly involved ; 44 percent did
when just .the mother was highly
involved. Only 27 percent got most- ,
ly A's if neither parent was very
involved.
. • More single fathers arc involved
than fathers in two-parent families,
46 percent vs. 31 percent.
.
• 31 percent of children with
highly involved liuhers got mostly
A's even when the father was a noncustodial parcn1.
The margin of error is less than I
percentage point.
.
The study not only shows the
importance of a father's role but that
if involvement by hoth parents is low,
a child 's chance of success is "dramatically rciluccd." said Education

her children's future as orphans.
L,ike others in the hemophilia

AIDS was an inevitable danger for
those dependent on "Factor VII" and
other expensive blood-clotting products to treat hemophilia.

bleeding, preventing additional
swelling and joint damage.

Tragically, much of the blood _
used to make the product, mostly collected trom paid donors in prisons ,
and inner cities, became tainled with
the HIV virus.
"I knew I had to write a book on
this topic or I was never going to s.ur· ·

in the family room of her cozy home
in this Philadelphia suburb, domi- ·
nated by smiling portraits of her sons.
"It makes me feel there's meaning to

Besides writing th~. book,
DePrince has established a nonprof-,

DePrince and other hemophilia
activists from .around the counuy lobbied their home-stale senators in
Washington, D.C., in late July for

$125,000 to AIDS-infected hemophiliacs or their survivors because the
products were approved by the Food

her family's ordeal with her argument
about who is responsible. She blames
the pharmaceutical companies that
make clouing products, the' FDA and
the National Hemophilia Foundation.
The latter two groups, she argues,
succumbed to pressure from clotting
product makers and blood banks to
delay blood donor screening and
other costly steps that could have peevented tragedy.
All three groups deny any wrongdoing, saying they did everything
possible ~G-Safeguard· hemophiliacs,
given the information available at th~
time.
"We've repeatedly shown in
courts that these comments don't
stand up under careful scrutiny," says
Guy Esnouf, spokesman for the pharmaceutical companies that have
joined together in fighting multiple
lawsuits.
" It was an awful tragedy but there
was nothing nothing we could do to

Improved plow
results in higher
farm profits
STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) It's called a low-till parabolic subsailer, and it's causing a stir in farm
circles. .
The subsoiler is a fancy plow that
reduces soil surface disturbance.
Shaped like a deep-curved "U," it is
being touted as increasing cotton
profits by nearly $33 an .acre. It was
recently redesigned by its inventor,
Gordon Tupper, an agricultural engineer althe Delta Research and Extension Center in Stoneville, Miss.
"Properly using this subsoiler on
.just a portion of ... (Mississippi's) 1
million acres of cotton has the potential to increase profits by several million dollars a year," Tupper said.
The shape of the subsoiler allows
it to be pulled one to two gears faster
than other subsoilers. The foot breaks
up the hardpan as it moves through
the ground about 16 inches deep. The
shank leans out and moves soil clods
aside rather than pushing them to the
surface.
"We're trying to break up the
ground without much surface disturbance and leave vegetation in place
to reduce soil erosion," Tupper said.
Tractors can pull the parabolic
subsoiler II percent faster than its
closest cqmpetitor. Its design reduced
/ power requirements by about 15 percent over the old design, which was
30 percent more efficient than its
wmpetitors. ·
The low-till parabolic subsoiler
can be used for many crops but is targeted for cotton .
"Cotton has a tap root and is a
very sparse root crop. while most other crops have more fibrous root systems." Tupper said. "Because of this.•
cotton responds well to subsoiling on
many Delta soils."
Along with the new J~sign are
new use recommendations determined after a three-year test on two
soil types.
"So far we've found it works best
to run the .subsoiler across the field at
a 45-dcgrec angle in the fall, and then
to subsoil in the row direction in the
spring," Tupper said.
Alteady at least five companies
arc producing the redesigned plow
commercially and more than 200 are
in usc. The old design. made by 45
companies worldwide, revolutioni1.cd deep tillage.
Recent design work on the parabol_ic subsoiler includes deep applicat1on offert1hzcr along with the subsothhg.

"It's a fairly crowded war party

makes the po~sihility of escalations of
. tensions that much greater," said
cncrgy analyst Ed Kevclson at

Dripping water can damage walls

- It 's a good idea to hang a tag on
the main shut-off valve so that all
family members will be able to find
it quickly and easily in an emergency.
- The shut-off for a toilet is typically under the tank. Sinks usually
have separate shut-off valves for hot
and cold water.
'
- Once the water supply is off,'
drain the pipe by opening the nearest
faucet. Before repairing a pipe. wipe
the area dry and remove any rust with
steel wool.
Tighten pipe or seal leak
- With a leaky joint on threaded
brass or galvanized steel pipes. simply tightening the f'ining with two

he'd "never see a poem lovely as a
tree," he didn't have in mind a tall
pine raining sappy needles all over
his car, raking mountains of leaves in
the fall or listening to a snow-laden
elm creak in a high wind as it threatens to crash through the roof of his
house.

For greater returns, think long and steady !Three promot~~!.~~...~:'
By MARK SMITH
GALLIPOLIS- There's no doubt
a~out it-- people are living longer. It
only makes sense for investors to set
their sites on the lbn~. However, by reading the finan9a1 press,
watching TV and listening to
friends, it seems many people try to
reflect on how today's investment
news will affect tomorrow's markets. This approach, although
appealing. is so wrong. Research has
shown that buying and holding
investments over the long haul
works better in almost every case
compared to repeated buying and
selling, that is playing the market.
Of course, with nearly all types
of investments, there are no guaran·tees. But over the last century, historical evidence has shown the stock
market has a remarkable ability to
rehound from crisis situations. Even
the Great Depression of the 1930s
proved to be no more than a temporary setback to the upward momenturn of stock prices.
·Research suppons this concept as
well. Dalbar Financial Services of

By MIKE ,HARRIS
CONCORD, N.C. (AP)- Jimmy
Spencer used his head as well as his gas
pedal in fending off Mark Martin's bid
for a record victory Saturday in the All
Pro Bumper-To-Bumper 300 Busch
Grand NatiOnal stock car race.
Martin, who kept lesing ground on pit
stops and making: it up on the track,
caught Spencer for the final time 21 laps
from the end of the 200-lap event at
Charlolle Motor Speedway.

At the end, it was Spencer's Chevrolet
by .231 -seconds - about three carlengths - over Martin's Ford in the bat•tle of Winston C\lp regulars. But the
decision remained in doubt until the final
tum as Martin tried hard to cam his 31 st.
career BGN victory, which would break a
tie with Jack Ingram as the top winner in
series history. .
Spencer gave himself a chance at the
win when he stayed on the track and in
the lead as Martin piued for fresh tires

during the sixth of seven caution periods.
Martin was eighth for the restart pn lap
156.
" My car was good on old tires,"
Spencer said. "I figured if I had track
position, I could beat him, and I did ." •
It wasn't easy, though.
Martin caught Spencer at the stan of
lap 180 and drew alongside him coming
off the second turn_ on lap 187. It
remained a sidc-by•side baule for several
laps. with Martin nosing ahead to take

t!¥ lead at the finish line on lap 193 and
S~er re3aining it going into the first
turn and holding the top spot the rest of
the way.
Spencer, who earned $53,200. averaged 127.089 mph.
Rookie Tony Stewart, the Indy RICi!ll
League star who will move full-time to
the Busch Series next year, was a CI!Rer·
best third. followed by Jeff Burton, Mlll'k
Green, rook1e. Steve Park and Dale
Jarrell.

"Athens was well-prepared for us
tonight," said Coach Saunders. "We
were impressed with their two touch·
down drives," he added. "We came
out a linle flat to start the game, but
the,kids knew what we had to do to
win. We were able to do some offensive things tonight that we haven't
been able to do all year," Saunders
said.
Bulldog mentor Weinfunner said'
of Athens' opening. drive, '"That is
euctly what you have to do to play
football and be successful." · He
added, ' 'If you can do it once, though, '
you have to be able to do it again ·and
again."
Weinfurtncr felt Gallipolis'
defense was able to adjust to the Bull·
dogs. "Gallipolis was more successful at stopping what we were doing.
You can't take anything away from
Gallipolis, because they are a dam
good football team."
He continued, "We had homecoming and a good home crowd, but
we just did not get the job done.
There was a lack of leadership out on
the field. 11 has to stan with me,"
Weinfunner said.
~
"We came out for the second half

reach. We went down to score and
made it 23-13, but the floodgates

GALLIPOLIS - Week three of
Southeastern· Ohio Athletic League
football contests offered no surprises Friday night as all teams exacted
to win did not disappoint their fans.
Jackson, . Gallipolis, Logan, and
Point Pleasant emerged with key vic. tories Friday, but lhe climb to the
league title. now becomes more difficult in the . final four league
matchups. .
.
Jackson continues its dominance
of league foes by thrashing River ValIcy 42-0, giving the lronmen a 1330 scoring mark in th~ SI;OAL out·
ings, Gall iu ""cadcmy did in Athens
43- 13, marking 10 stroight wihs by
GAHS over the Bulldogs; Point
Pleasant earned an important 36-21
victorY at Warren Local, and Logun
came from behind to defeat Mariet·
ta 27-10.
Logan 27, Marietta I 0
• At Logan's Bill Sauer Field the
visiting Tigers broke to a I0-0 lead on
two clock-eating drives that kept the
Chieftain offense off the field for
most of the firsttwo quaners of play.
Marietta's first scoring drive covered 72 yards in II plays, cupped by
a two yard scoring run by Nathan
Swartz and Drew Gilmore's extra
point kick. Another lonJ Tiger drive
. in the second quaner resulted in a 32 ·
yard field goal by Drew Gilmore,
putting the hostteam down I0,Q with
just2:32 remaining in the half.
Logan quickly responded to tie the
score at 10- 10 before halftime when
Chris Yates scored from the one, Mao

Show kicked lhc point after, and then
booted a 29-yard field goal as time
expired in the first half.
Neither team scored in the third
quaner, but sophomore tackle Paul
Rogers scooped up a Marietta fumble and rumbled SJ yards with it to
set up Shaw's 22 yard field goal that
' put tl)c Chiefs on lop 13-10 early in
the final period.
Midway in the final stanza Yates
raced 28 yards 10 paydirt and Shaw's
successful kick gave logan breathing
room at 20·10. Logan's Jake
Howdyshell carried the ball only
once, but that carry was good for u
one yard touchdown run with Shaw's
extra-point kick closing out the scoring and giving the Chiefs a2-l record
in league play while Marieua is now
winless in three outings.
Senior Chris Yatfl led all rushers ·
with 2S carries for IS3 yards nnd
senior Nick Wells added 7S yards on
eight rushes for Logan. Quarterback
Aaron Aohr completed one of nine
passes for seven yards because
Logan's ground attack rolled up 2S3
yards on 40 carries.
Marietta was paced by Swartz who
carried 21 times for 73 yards while
quarterback Joe Westbrook complet·
cd I0 of 17 passes for 140 yards. The
Tigers also led in firs\ downs 14-12
and had possession of the ball for
over 28 minutes to Logan's 20 plus

Some funny things
about baseball as
the big dance nears
By SAM WILSON

·

11m11 Sll'lllnll CotTMponcllnt

_

· A few things struck me as humorous as I contemplated this week's article, and none of them bad
to do with MaJv Albert.
Marv should have talcen lhe plea and run long
before his career and life were ruined. !thought he
was smarter than tbal, but the egos of these sportscasters are almost as big
as the alhletes'. I just hope his accuser, whose intent was to ruin his life, is
satisfied with lhe results.
Remember last year wben that Giants fan, who was disgruntled over the
Matt Williams trade to Cleveland, declared himself to be a free agent fan?
Evenlllally, after a publicized search, he decided on lhe Philadelphia PhiUies
because of !heir commitment to winning. So, the Ph_illies end up with one c;&gt;f
the worst records in baseball, and the Giants win the National league West
So much for free fan agency! I'll bet be's a closet Giants fan for the play-

1-

offs.
TWo weeks after I picked the Dodgers to make the fall classic, they
decide to lose II of 15 games. Now that's how you steal aefeat out of the
jaws of victory. It's always special when they blow a lead. They still remain
the team you love to hate.
Last year !hey lost three straight games at home to the Padres to become
the wild card team. Then, for the second straight year, they were swept in the
first round of the play9ffs. They need to hire Reggie Jackson a$ an attitude
coac~t, because that team has no heart When newcomers like Otis Nixon are
calling team meetitigs, something is definitely wrong.
I wonder how fans in Houston feel after only 17,000 fans showed up itt
the Oilers game against Baltimore two weeks ago. I just remember the great
crowds that used to frequent their games before !hey announced their move
to NashviUc. How about those legendary 'battles between Earl Cambell and
the Pittsburgh Steel Curtain?
.
Someone stiU needs to explain to me why Tennessee needs a team, and
Cleveland and Los Angeles must wait unlil1999.
·
·
Do you ever notice hllw many empty seats are available in all the cities
. where teams have relocated? I never recall that being a problem in the mistAke by the lake.
I wish the Cavs luck; but !hey gave up far too much for Sean 'Kemp. In
any event, it will be interesting to see how they perform during the upcoming season. At least we kni&gt;w they will score more points.
All teams seem to be moving toward more offensive production. Moving
the three-point line hack was a stan. If you're going to give three points for
a shot, it should be wonh tbe effon.
,
Once again, experts_are predicting the Bulls as champions. Sorry folks,
not this year! The Bulls' run is over! Age, injuries and Rodman will all play
a factor. More importantly, every other team has gotten stronger. The degree
of difficulty is far greater than people imagine. look for Mike to retire and
Pippen to relocate at the end of the season.
You bavc to lake your hat off to Mark McGwire and Keo _Griffey Jr. Their
assault on !be magical record of 61 home runs was inspiring. Baseball
receives such bad press, but these two men arc an example of what is right
with !be game.
McGwire signed for significantly less money to stay in St. Louis. He fell
in love with lhe city and fans, and has agreed to donate $1 million a year to
his own charity for children. This should have gotten more press !ban
Alben's problems; however, it just tells you wbat sells to the public.

Alli·ance may retur_
n grizzly bears to Bitterroot
Mountains
.

By H. JOSEF HEBERT

WASHINGTON (AP)
An
unusual alliance of environmenlalists
and . timber interests is trying to
. return the griuly bear. among the
most feared animals in the wild, to
Idaho's Bitterrool Mountains. .
And some people are worried.
The Interior Department began a
series of public hearings in late. September on a plan that would remtro-.
duce the ·first of about 20 grizzlies
into 4 million roadless acres in cen·
tral Idaho and western Montana,
where the bear disappeared SO years
ago.
The plan has outraged politicians
in ldabo and raised concerns about
safety. But it also was prai~d by
some environmentalists and limber
industry officials as an e&gt;ample of
how to manage endangered species.
"It shows that under the Endan·
gered Species Act ... there is oppor·
tunity for flexibility and collaboration " 'said Tom France, an attorney

The only hits against Smaltz were
a first-inning single by Jeff Bagwell,
a seventh-inning homer by Chuck
Can and a two-out single by Luis
Gonzalez in the ninth. Smaltz had II

The Astros haven't been in the
playoffs in II years. That helped,
Smaltz said of the Braves' mastery of
the Killer Bs.
"We've been through so many
great lineups," Smaltz said. "We shut
down probably the scariest Colorado

helps because you don't waver lrom

"Bagwell is an MVP type guy.

The Braves won 10 I games this
season, and they were just too much
power for the Astros, who stru'ggled
10 win the weak Central Division
with an 84-78 record, worst among
all playoff teams.
"They seemed to be everywhere,"
Biggio said. "Every time we hit a ball
hard, they seemed to be there to catch
it. There's a reason they've been in
the postseason six straight years.
"It's taken me IO years to get here
and now it's over. I wish it could have
turned out different. I honestly
thought we'd play until Sunday."
TheAstros hit only .167 in the
series, and that included a 3-for-5
.performance by their pitchers.
"Our offense sputtered," Bagwell said. "We just didn't score
enough runs, but we were up against
the best pitching staff in the game.
But this should give us momentum
going into spring training. Now we
have unfinished business."

returned to them, but trailer owners
are unsure of what they will do. Some
have not fixed their trailers because
they fear they will not be approved
. for occupancy if they make repairs.
Some were told by village and
• Clermont County building officials
that they can reoccupy, but only if
they elevate the trailers more than
seven feet.
" We feel like they're·trying to run
the mobile homes out of town completely," said Sharon Caudill, who
owns a trailer in New Richmond that

her tenant completel y gutted after
flood waters receded.
Spring flooding of the Ohio River left live people dead in southern
Ohio and sent many residents of thi s
floodplain village' to higher ground.
The river crested March 5 at64.7
feet - almos16 feet above its banks.
Schools and businesses closed, and
many of the village's 2,500 residents
were forced into temporary shelters. ·
Mobile home ow.ners said raising
a mobile home costs too much money.
Maria Donell . 30, said it would
cost her $15;000 to elevate her trail·
er the necessary 7.6 feet. She says
even if she does. the village still has
threatened-to condemn the structure,
which looks like it was hit by the
tloodjustlast week.
"The way I look at it, it's my

mobile home. it's my land," Ms:
Donell said.
Cleimont County health officials
said they have no jurisdiction in the
matter because they no longer regard
New Richmond trailer owners as
trailer park residents.
Before the flood , the village had
five mobile home parks. Now, b); tbe
state's definition, it has none. That's
because it takes three occupied trailers to constitute a park, and flood
waters have driven niost residents
out, Health Commissioner Janet
Rickabaugh said.
Rickabaugh said the definition has
to be met for the health district to get
involved.
Malinda Montgomery, 29, who
lives in a trailer with her mother and
stepfather, said she is glad they were
living in a trailer that was elevated
9.5 feet above the ground.
