REED Sentinel News Staff Questions about admissions criteria and financial operations at the Meigs County Home were raised at Monday's meeting of the Meigs County Commissioners. 'The commissioners have placed·a proposed half-mill levy on the November ballot to be used for operation of the facility. Joan May of Rutland, armed with copies of last year's financial records from the county home budget, raised several questions about the way the county determines eligibility for admission into the facility. In response to May's·questions, the hoard indicated that a specific set of guidelines for determining eligibility did not exist, but ssaid that Superintendent Sharon Bailey usually assesses applicants for general eligibility status, and that the commissioners make the decision of whether someone is admined into the home. "They are homeless, with no family." Commissioner Janet Howard said. According to-a list of residents that May had at lite.meeting, 10 out of 11 residents are considered "homeless," and yet five of the residents have family members who are listed as "responsible panics," May noted. Referring to financial records whiclt disclose amounts of SSI and pen· sion benefits received by each resident, May, a former bank manager, ques· tioned whether several members should qualify for admission under the $12 per day rate now charged by the board for occupancy at the facility. "I have had bank customers with less ca<h than·some of these people who lived on their own," May said. "I've made loans to people who make this much." By BRIAN J.

"I don't have that at my home. To me, it's a luxury." "I want to make sure if we vote for this levy, our money won 't be wasted," May said. "I don't think you have a very good handle on things." May, who spoke to Bailey prior to the meeting, also noted that purchases for meat for the home were made exclusively at a Syracuse market, and cleaning supplies were purchased from an out-of-county commercial supplier. May inquired why comparison shopping was not used when buying food staples and janitorial supplies. According to May, Bailey cited quality as a reason for the meat purchases. Last year, the commissioners appropriated $30,000 for food and cleaning supplies. The total spent for the county home in 1996 was $132,214.16, $84,000 of which came from the county general fund. The remai"der of tlie funds spent came from residents. either through cash payments. which are made by six current residents, or SSI, Social Security or pensions, which are pAid by the remaining residents.

Jack and Mona Volgares were returned to Ironton on Monday. Feder- . al marshals new them from Oklahoma to the Bluegrass Airpon in Lexington, Ky., where Ironton police met them, Lawrence County Prosecutor J.B. Collier Jr. said. U.S. Marshal Allen Smith said the couple were taken Thursday from the Muskogee County (Okla.) jail, where they had been held since their arrest at the Muskogee Salvation Army Center on Sept. 20. · The two probably will be arraigned today or Wednesday before sepa· rate judges. Collier said. A grand jury has indicted Mrs. Volgares. 28, on a charge of involunta;y manslaughter. Her husband, 42, has been cl)argcd with murder. They are accused in the death of Seleana Gamble, Mrs . Volgares' daughter from a previous relationship. The girl's body was found Sept. 7. Mrs. Volgares has said that her husband told her he had thrown Seleana and accidentally killed her after the girl spoke disrespectfully to him. She said she and her husband then buried the body. , I •• �• . - . . -. 9ommentary Page 2 Tutlda~~ober7,1997 seconds. HosBut I'm not · the only one out tile stares? I there.

The Orioles were folly e•peciTng -and perhaps hoping -that the Yankees would JOin them in AL championship series.

"Last year when we got beat by the Yankees. it didn't sit well with a lot of people. from ownership on down. It didn't sit wdl with me or any of the players." manager Davey Johnson said shor1ly after Baltimore eliminated Seattle from the playoffs Sunday. "From Day One. the players have looked l l this year to make amends. Hopefully we'll have a chance - if the Yankees make it to the ALCS ." It didn't happen.

ThiS is th type of heart attack that your SISter had. All heart attacks, whether or not they have noticeable symptoms, result from an insufficient amount of blood reachmg the hean muscles.

Linda Herter, director of policy studies for the Denver-based Education Commission of the States, testified before the Joint Finance Subcommittee. The court gave Ohio lawmakers until March 24 to come up with a plan that will ensure a "thorough and efficient" education for each child. The Legislature failed to pass a plan offered by Republican leaders that would have raised about SI billion a year through a penny-per-dollar increase in the (Editor's note-- See Jennifer Sheets' guest commentary on nage 2 today) ·i;; USED TRUCKS • USED TRUCKS • USED TRUCKS • USED TRUCKS ................................ •13,866 ..........._...,....-..... - '1.3,970 tUIIC:SUIU "414 U Herter cited cases ti'om Massachusetts. Tennessee and Wyoming. She said that while it is too early to measure progress, some of the effects of funding reforms were being felt in those states. Massachusetts, for inst~ncc. rearranged its budget to increase funding for primary and high schools. "They did some brutal cuts, especially in higher education," Herter said. She said the Massachusetts plan was part of an overall school reform program that linked the amount of state money available to whether a district passes local issues. Wyoming education officials simply came up with a computer model. "It's a tool rather than an absolute formula," Hener said. The Tennessee plan is based on teacher-pupil ratios and is being phased in as funding becomes avai)able, she said. "These three pieces of paper are all the states that have done anything. This is it," Herter said. . . Rep. C.J. Prentiss, D-Cieveland, asked Herter when the Legislature would know that the Supreme Court is satisfied with its plan. "The court says. 'Good job. Looks good. Thank you,"' Herter responded. Sen. Linda Furney, D-Toledo, said after the hearing that while Herter's testimony shed some light on what other states arc doing, Ohio lawmakers . ~=.:~: ~.~:~.~~.:.
