Lawmakers told horror stories about a rule - ·never enacted - requiring workplace buckets to have holes in them. But in tbe end, one of the·most cherished goals of the GOP's "Contract With America," curbins excessive and often unneeded rules that cost American businesses billions every year, was largely thwaned . . The administration says that's all to the better, because it has pushed ahead with regulatory relief that keeps safety and environmental protections it says the Republican bill undermined. "I believe we really have son of pre-empted" Congress on the regulato. ry issue, said Elaine Kamarck, senior adviser to Vice President AI Gore, the point man in the administration cam'paign to streamline government. Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, in a review of 199S, saw it differently, saying President Clinton's "misguided insistence on the status quo has prevented the enactment of much needed regulatory reform." Republicans, he said, "have not given up." Dole was a big loser in the failure to get a bill through the Senate last year. In March, House Republicans steamrolled through a bill that would require federal agencies to provide detailed studies of risks posed by practices they are seeking to regulate and to lay out cost-benefit analyses. The bill made it easier for businesses to challenge new regulations and for landowners to receive compensation for rules that caused propeny values to decline. Dole personally led the effort to push a similar bill through the Senate, trying to attract wavering Democrats by accepting exemptions from the cost- benefit analysis rules involving such activities as environmental cleanups aQd mammography quality standards. • But he C)llled it quits after II days of intense debate when he coul\1/!'t '' come up with the 60 votes needed to end a Democratic filibuster. The Ia£! cloture vote was 58-40. · : The House and Senate also failed to come to terms on a companion bill that, as passed by the House, would have put a freeze on the enactment ef most new regulations. The Senate approved a milder version giving Coitgreis the power to veto regulations up to 45 days after they are announced. : The president did sign into law a bill requiring Washington to pay for tiJe rules it imposes on local governments, but most other Republican efforts to limit regulatory powers, paniculariy on the environment, have made little headway.

Bob Dole claiming only he can unite the pany, Lamar Alexander scoffing at Dole as a· weakened figure and Pat Buchanan saying he's got them all scared, Republican presidential candidates took their final · gloves-off shots today before the New Hampshire primary. "Senator Dole's guys are saying today, 'We're going to win it ugly.' Jsn 't that an indictment, quite frankly, of what's going on in Washington ," Buchanan said on ABC's "Good Morning America." Alexander, running as a self-proclaimed Washington outsider, targeted Dole, too, as the three leaders elbowed for room at the top with polls showing them bunched together ahead of Tuesday's voting. " Bob Dole is ducking interviews. He's running negative ads. He doesn't have one single idea about how to lead us into the next century," the for-· mer Education Secretary said as he made the rounds of morning talk shows. Dole was the only major GOP candidate who dido 't appear this morning on the network TV .talk shows, although failed GOP hopeful Phil Gramm showed up on NBC to tout his weekend endorsement of Dole. Publisher Steve Forbes, trailing badly in founh place in most polls. used a spans analogy to push his message that he can't be counted out. . ''I'm convinced we'll build support as we go ... I think it's gonna go into extra innings," Forbes said on CBS "This Morning." Dole sounded pessimistic notes early Sunday, but by evening in Exeter, he said he was "on the verge of something great," and that the primary will begin the end of the Clinton presidency.

Schneider said the commission had discussed testing boxers for hepatitis B, another blood-borne illness, but the Morrison case may be the catalyst to taking action. , Ohio ts host to 15 or 20 fight cards a year, he said. Boxmg officials in New York said last week that they would begin requiring AIDS tests. The only other states that screen boxers for HIV are Nevada, where Morrison was tested, Arizona, Oregon and Washington. The New Jersey Legislature ts also considenng requiring testing. Morrison tested positive for the virus that causes AIDS before a fight at Las Vegas and was suspended from the sport. He said at a news conference last week that he assumed he contracted the virus through unprotected sex. But he won't rule out transmisston through bloody bouts. "Any ume you're in a blood sport that risk is there," Momson satd. "But they (doctors) say you have a better chance of a light bulb falhng out of the .ceiling and hitting you on the head during the boxmg match than actually contracting the vtrus." Bnush heavyweight Lennox Lewis said he is confident he was not exposed to HIV during his bloody fight against Momson Lewts, the last man to fight Momson, stopped htm in stx rounds at Atlanttc Ctty, N.J., on Oct. 7. Morrison's face was badly cut in the bout. Glorta Smtth. executive director of the Columbus AIDS Task Force, said her group probably willtssue a positton on AIDS and boxmg after tts March 5 meetmg. . "We understand itts a risk factor," Ms. Smith said, adding that her group has recetved many calls on the subject since the Morrison announcement. Whatever ts done, Ms. Smith srud she would like it to be done by box1ng officials- not the Legislature. · "There's always a tendency by the Legislature to broaden things," she explained. · · · . "Our concern around the, testing issue is confidentiality," she srud. "I know sometimes the community thmks we should test everyooe. "But that's not cost-effective and tt gtves people a false sense of hope." Ms. Smith satd HIV tests may not register positive up to 12 weeks after a person comes m contact ~ith the virus. People :"~o test negative six ~10nths ·after coming in contact wtth an mfected person s blood or other bodtly nutds likely will not develop the illness, she added. Sen. Anthony Latell, D-Girard, and a nonvoting member of the boxing cornmisston, said he would prefer that the commtssion take the lead on the AIDS tssue. However, he was not sure whether it had the authority to order ·testing. "We must do something, though, to ensure the safety of the boxers who are m the ring," Latell said. . ...

I get the sense, however, that theSe crusadtng Christtans on both stdes are after something more. The Call for Renewal, for mstance, is determtneld to judge political candidates by "the teachings of Christ," and may also be fishing for souls for Christ.

While ETis remain unpopular on Capitol Hill, Berg has spent considemble time promoung them elsewhere .: including trips to New Orleans and West Palm Beach, Fla. Travel vouchers we've obtained show that Berg has given at least 24 speechies on ET!s since October 1994. The !department has yet to produce n:cords !from 1993. · Berg's bags were packed recently ;for a speech in Hawaii, but it was canceled at the last minute because of one of the government shutdowns. Next Monday she will be in Miami, atid next month tt's on to Califomta -- one of many trips she has made to her home state. Apparently not all her trips have gone smoothly. LabOt sources recall that during one tnp last year, Berg called an aide from 35,()()()feet in the sky because she had gotten an uncomfortable middle seat Berg, who confirmed that her staff "knows I prefer an aisle or window seat," says she was only calhng to find out why her fltght had so many connecuons. Berg is so concerned about her tmage on the rubber-chicken ctrcu1t that she is fixated ,with every detail, right down to the official photo her staff sends out m advance of her speeches. Berg has ordered that her offictal photo be retaken on three separate occasions. She claims this indulgence was warranted because she changed her hairstyle. "Altogether it was three times that I changed my hair," Berg explamed. "First I had a perm, then it was long, and then I grew it out, and then I cut ' 11 off. So I needed new photos.'' It's worth noting that Housing Seeretary Henry Cisneros caused a flap tn 1993 when he changed hts photo JUSt once because it revealed a fiYe o'clock shadow.

"Yep, missed it this year," Dockery said from his hospital bed to his ·son Shane. "But I'm go.ing next year." The former policeman was the nucleus of an eclectic mix of friends - woodworkers, nuclear regulators, a geologist and other policemen who gathered twice a winter for allmale escapes into the Cherokee National Forest just northeast of Chattanooga. · The winter trips epitomized Dockery, said Dick Edgerton, a woodworker who lives in Flintstone, Ga. They began for a young generation of friends and evolved into a rite of passage shared with their sons . "He was one of the moving influences to make sure we got there," Edgerton said.

"Ted Nugent has been ignored long enough," said Pete McRae of WQWK in State College and WQKK in Johnstown. "He embodies the spirit, energy and wild abandon that rock' and roll is all about." McRae and Cara Sabin said they need to collect 250,000 signatures to try to begin the process. "The iest is in the hands of Ted's fans," McRae said.

Shane has gone in his father 's place for the past six years, Dockery lingered in a coma-like state until a week ago. On Feb. II, he was taken from a nursing home to a Chattanooga hospital with life-threatening pneumonia. His family had to choose between letting the illness kill him or risk surgery. Dockery awoke the next day and talked for some 18 hours. His family, hoping to give him a fighting chance, opted for surgery that drained infectious fluid from his lungs. Dockery, 42, was alen but not speaking Sunday. Since the surgery on Thursday, he had responded only by moving his eyes and squeezing hands. He was moving his arms and legs on command and breathing on his own. Meanwhile, his friends reflect on a man who once relished an active life. ""' His former partner.

NEW LEXINGTON (AP) - The Ohio Supreme Court has been asked to decide the constitutionality of a law barring peop le with first-degree misdemeanor convictions from running for sheriff. Former ·State Solicitor Richard Cordray last week asked the court to declare the law unconstitutional after Secretary of State Bob Taft said Danny Klingler's conviction on a charge of failure to pay child support was an "absolute bar" on his ability to run for Perry County sheriff. The conviction has been wiped from his record. Cordray asked the court to issue an order allowing Klingler to put his name on the Democratic ballot in the March primary. Cordray also asked that the county pay Klingler's legal fees and the cost of ttlc supreme CClUrt case.
