Al ong the R1vc r Ann Landers py ANN LANDERS - Dear Ann Landen: J'd like to add iny thanks to the many others you must have received for mentioning the wonderful worlc of the ~erican Enuresis Foundation in helping young people stop ~ir bed-wetting. , After trying everything to help our daughter S!OJ? wetting the bed, we finally resorted to medication, which kept her dry about 90 percent of the lime. But if she cut down on the drogs, she would revert to wet-ting nightly. Her urologist told her that she would probably have to take medication for the rest of her life. Last spring, just prior to her high school graduation, I read in your column about the_results others had achieved by following the program of the American Enuresis Foundation. I immediately sent for information. My daughter started the treatment in May, and at the end of August, she began her freshman Y,ear in an out-of-town university; living in a dorm, completely dry and drug-free. It seems as though a miracle has occurred, allowing her to participate in normal activities she would otherwise have been dCnied. · Our family will be forever grateful to the kind, helpful people at the foundation and to you, Ann. We thought it was time we let you know. -- Pasadena, Calif. Dear Pasadena: The American Enuresis Foundation infonned me that it received more than I g,ooo letters as a result of that column. Many who wrote said they had tried everything under the sun and nothing worked. Their gratitude was unbounded. But he aware that the treatment program is expensive because it is tailored to the individual. For mformation, send a long, · self-addressed, stamped envelope to: American Enuresis Foundation, P.O. Box 33061, Tulsa, Okla. 74153I !161. Dear Apn Landers: aur-daughter, "Jean," is 18. She met "Ted," 22, on-line through her computer. 'They had known each other for two months when she moved in with him immediately after lier high school graduation. Ted seems mature and is capable of supporting her. We like him, but we let her know we did not approve of their living 'together. She moved in anyway. We are also disappointed that Jean is no longer interested in attending college. Jean and Ted are planning 10 get married soon and are paying for most of the wedding themselves.

It was the first major highway construction project or relocation since another sectipn of the same road was relocated to bypass Chester and shoot directly to Coolville in 1951. The 4.043 mile project was set for a late Oct. 1967 completion date. Also 30 years ago this week, the Meigs Local Board of Education voted unanimously to place a bond _issue on the primary ballot to finance construction of a new consolidated high school. State share of the projecl was $1.9 million, while the local share was $1.02 million. Voters unan- imously approved the issue by a 2263 to 984 margin.

It was the worst day for bond traders in nearly two decades. The market reaction was in sharp contrast to the good news embodied in the Labor Department report. The gain of 705,000 jobs - the biggest increase since September 1983 - was more than double expectations. The Febroary gain, while partially a rebound from a loss of 188,000 jobs in January, still reflected widespread strength in a number of areas. Jobs were up strongly in business services, construction, retailing and even in manufacturing. which had been pummeled by layoffs over the last year. "Th1s employment increase was stunning," said Norman Robertson, economist at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh. "Just when everybody starts writing obituary notices for this economy, it comes to life." President Clinton was quick to highlight the February job rebound, particularly because it pushed him through an important milestone - the 8 million jobs he pledged to create while campaignmg in 1992. But mindful of polls showing an unusually high level of economic anx iety despite the low unemployment rate, the president $Bid, "Even as we celebrale the creation of 8.4 million jobs, we must remember that much more must he done to ensure that our economy is working for all of our working families." . . r .: ~ By KEVIN KELLY Times-Sentinel Staff GALLIPOLIS - Legislation creating a Veterans Care Committee thilt would study the need for a veterans home in southern Ohio has cleared the House Committee on Veter-· ans Affairs.

Bend Area Forty years ago this week, in ·1956,' the Eastern Local School Board unanimously voted to place a controversial 5.9 mill, 23-year bond issue on the primary ballot during a largely rutended board meeting in Tuppers Plains. The issue was to finance $425,000 of an $800,000 district project for the construction of a new high school; new grade school; and additions and remo<!eling to the Chester and Tuppers Plains schools. The remainding $375,000 in funding was to come from the State.of Ohio. The issue passed by - an overwhelming 1107-434 result in the primary, and construction in the district began. In the Nov. '55 election, and at a special election on Jan. 24, 1956, the needed majority was barely missed. Due to the crowded condition ' of the schools in tile district, it had' been operating on a half day basis since October, 1955. , Also during this week in 1956, The Daily Sentinel suspended publication of the popular "Little Orphan Annie" comic strip, citing "a decline in the good content usually found in this world famous comic feature." "The continuity of the strip appears to be glorifying hoodlumism in youngsters, which the Daily Sentinel will always vigorously oppose.

"The take-home message," says Russek, "is to talk to your child and find out if he does feel loved. This is not about buying them stuff. It's about accepting the child's perception of their relationship with you as the truth," and acting in a way "that your child may experience you as just and loving." The long-term he4lth payoff suggests health maintenance organizations would be smart to emphasize good parent training programs, Schwanz says.

Q Tougher state Dl:JI bill ups offenders' fines By AARON MARSHALL Glnnelt Nnra Service COLUMBUS - If you. getli4uored up and get caught behind the wheel of a boac or car the price you pay will go up under legislation introduced by State Rep. Rex Damschroder, R-Fremont. , ~hroder, a freshman member of the Ohio House, recently introduced a bill aimed at getting tougher on drunken drivers and soused boaters. "Ohio shoold be a leader not a follower of the national trend to raise the standards for drunken drivers;" Damschroder said . . The proposed tougher drunk driving bill would lower the blood alcohol . content level required for a drunk driving conviction on state highways or waterways from .10 to .08. Damschroder said 13 states have conve~ the standard for drunk dri· ving to .08' and other countries such as France are eve~ more stringent with . .OS standards. " .08 is still impaired and being on the highway is no place to he impaired." be said. Damschroder's initiative would also increase the penalties for repeat drunken drivers. Under the bill, drivers who have been picked up at least twice before for "any vehicle related and alcohol-related offense" would face at \east 60 days in jail, a mandatory fine and probable court ordered forfeiture of their car used in the offense. "This bill goes very hard after repeat offenders," Damschroder said. . · Damschroder's bill would strengthen existing state laws a third way by making the state's DUilaws for drivers the same for boaters across the board. Currently, drunk boaters face the same fines and jail terms as drunk drivers according to the Ohio Division of Wat:rcraft. But Damschroder's bill would mean ,drunk boating like drunk driving would cost six points on a driver's license and would result in the suspension of that license. "We have to come down heavier on boaters. You just can't get stone drunk and drive a boat any more than you can a car," Damschroder said. " Thi s adds some meat and gravy to the boating laws." Port Clinton Police Chief Walter Bahnsen said he is in favor of any legislation that lowers the blood alcohol level down to .08 and treats drunk boat· ing the same as drunk driving. ' ·: ~ars or boats_, it doesn't make any difference: you end up with dead pe\l· pie, Bahnsen srud. • ·. He said that Pon Clinton H~jrbor Patrol's sober skipper education all(! enforcement program is working and detening some drunk boaters from getting behind the wheel. " We'll see groups of people \hat have been drinking but the dri ver is sober, " he said. · Damschroder said three out of every four boating accidents involve alcohol but said he was not moiivated to introduce this bill by any particular accident. Alcohol was a factor in a fatal boat accidents on Lake Erie last summer that killed one people. It may al so have been a factor in a one-boat crash a n Sandusky Bay in August that kil led four people including a Fremont co~_ple, Judy and Roland GoOd. :. Boating safety has been one of Damsc hroder' s key issues since joining the legislature in 1995. He proposed a boater safetY bill in December requi l" ing all first-time boaters to pass a mandatory safely course before they caa lease or buy a boat. However, the proposarseems to have hit the legis lati v~ doldrums in the House's Transportation committee where it has sat since intrO' duction . ' Damschroder said 66,000 Ohioans were convicted of drunk driying ip 1~94. "Ohio is still ranked in the top third nationally for drunk driving arres!~ per capita," he said. He said nationwide 330 were killed and 20,000 people injured in alcohol related accidents I.St year.

"Farm prices are stronger now ... they're stronger than we' ve seen in 20 years," said Glickman. "The role ofthe government in micromanaging agriculture is over. The government's role is in making sure that markets are open." Glickman had lunch Friday with students at Mount ,Airy Elementary School, The school is one of about I5 in Cincinnati and 4,000 nationwide that participate in Team Nutrition, a USDA program that encourages chi!- dren and parents to choose healthi~r meals at school and home. : He later addressed the Nation~d Farmers Union, an organization wary of the congressional . overhaul ' of farm programs that could be completed thi s month. The Farmers Union, representing 250,000 family farmers and ranchers, says the gov ernment's policies favor corpormc farming at the expense of famil y farm s. • Glickman said the $36 billion is about $16 billion more than farmers likely would have received through traditional crop price supports .

The sources say the American finn's computer system was clearly breached. Its unique approach and financial structure appeared verbatim in their competitor's proposal for a $350 million contract worth over 3,000 jobs. • In some cases, countries recruit sludents before they come to the United States to study, asking them to send back any technological information they come across.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. The Columbia astronauts' joy to be. · home was · loud and clear Saturday when the space shuttle landtd safely, ending a 16-day mission fraught with anxiety and disappointment.

The seven crewmen had .to ieavc behind a satellite-on-a-card and had to land with one Jess data-relay channel' than desired. NASA's oldesi shuttle, carrying one of the most seasoned crews ever, glided through high, wispy clouds before touching down on lhe concrete runway at Kennedy Space Center just before 9 a.m. Columbia was supposed to land Friday. but thick clouds scuttled those plans. Clouds rolled back in · early Saturday, forcing Mission Con. trol to pass up the . first landing · opportunity, but the sky cleared.

But tleclining · health ended his performing career after he was mjured in a fall in July 1994. The IOO!h birthday shows were canceled. More recently, ailing with the nu, Bums was unable even to be a spectator at a gala in his honor a few days before he turned I 00.

He spent the birthday quietly, At . the White House, President Clinton and first lady Hillary Rodh811) Clin' ton hailed his "-knowing smile and dry wit," adding, "His youthful attitude, now a century old, continues to inspire us today." Bums' career was at a crossroads after Gracie - the ultimate ditzy comedian and the love of Burns' life - retired in 1958. She died in 1964 and he never remarried.

When the final statue is cast and placed at the FOR Memorial now under construction in Washington, D.C., it may indeed convey its silent message to millions of visitors each year, say foundry officials. Work on lhe eight-foot high statue is nearly complete. After months of enlarging the statue from a small plaster model done by New-York City sculptor Neil Estern, finishing touches are being placed on it before it will be cast in bronze. The figure depicts Roosevelt wearing a cape, seated in an i~tri.cately carved wooden chair. .

It turns out he has a big stake in both. The spiky-haired promoter has become a major stockholder in the MOM Grand hotel -casino, thanks to a six-fight deal he signed with the Las Vegas resort last year forl)oson 's services. But while l)oson risks his comeback career in a March 16 fight against WBC heavyweight champion Frank Bruno at the MGM Grand Hotel, King has no risk in a stock deal with the hotel that is guaranteed to double in value in upcoming months. Records reviewed by The Associated Press show the pact between Don King Productions and the MGM Gi-and gave King a no-interest loan of $15 million to buy 618,557 shares of MGM stock auhe time the deal was signed. The stock buy was sweet for King, who risked no money of his own to obtain the stock. Even better, the company guarantees that the stock will be worth at least $30 million when the deal expires Sept. 25, 1997, according to documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unusual arrangement would be perfectly legal under provisions that make the guarantee apply only to King's stock and not to shares owned by other MGM stcickholders, an investment banker said. "It's not the norm, but what with Don King is _the norm?" said Jon Schotz, president of Saybrook Capital Corp. in Los Angeles. Other than chuckling when asked what stake he had in the hotel, ~ng refused to comment on the lucrative pact. Rival promoter Bob Arum wasn't so reticent, however. "King is one of the greatest salesmen of our time, and he showed it this time," Arum said. "It's the worst deal for a casino in history, is how it was described to me." MGM officials, who heralded the contract as a coup when it was signed in the days after l)oson's release from prison last March, have consistently refused to say what they paid 10 land the former heavyweight champion. Since the contract was signed, however, almost the entire top management of the resort has left. Hotel chairman Robert Maxey ·and president Larry Wolfe were arno11g those who resigned i.n July in a shakeup aimed at cutting costs at the resort. The con!J'llcl, according to sources familiar with some of its tenns, gives King not only the stock, but much of the gate receipts from the fight. The first fight against Peter McNeeley last August brought in a record live gate of $13,965,600. The big fight didn't help MOM profits, though.

Hunter noted that very few programs throughout the state hav.e winning records all the way through. Hunter also noted that for every 166 team there is an equal number of 6-16 teams somewhere in the state, another tribute to the program. Hunter and varsity mentor Scott Wolfe then made presentations honoring the senior players and their parents. Each athlete and their parents were given a floral plant~r on behalf of the Eastern Athletic Boosters and Francis Florist.

Next, coach Paul Brannon made presentations to members of his junior vprsity squad, which won the TVC championship with a 15-0 mark, 16-3 overall. It is believed to have been the first-ever undefeated junior varsity girls' team in the league. Brannon noted, "When Coach Wolfe and I started out in this program as varsity and then junior high coach, we had 18 players overall in the program, grades 7-12. This year we had over 40 players when we started the season, and all the teams had winning records. I think this .speaks highly of the direction that this program is heading." Brannon also notod that this is the first time that Eastern has had a separate junior varsity coach dedicated solely to the junior ,varsity team. This year the Eastern board added an additional coaching position, a tremendous boost to the prognim. Brannon said, "This group of girls would do everything asked of them and the results were clear. 'There was no selfishness, no independence on this team. The each wou.ld do whatever it takes to win. 'They really liked to be able to call themselves winners, and they are:" . Junior varsity team members honored were Michelle Caldwell, Crystal Holsinger, Kim Mayle, Valerie Karr, Juli Hayman, Angi Wolfe, Amanda Milhoan, Stephanie Evans, Lacey Bunting and Mary Styer. Hunter then introduced head men.tor Scott Wolfe, who guided his talk into three categories, the past, the present and the future. Wolfe reflected upon what the program was like when he first started, two return· ing lettermen, seven graduated seniors and only 18 girls overall in the program. Wolfe then praised his present team members for the accomplishments they have had 11ver the past two years. He praised their efforts in securing sectional, district and TVC Championships. He also noted that each year the teams have increased their winning totals and that more and more girls are getting interested in the sport. "When you sign up to play East· em basketball you make a commit· ment. A commitment to do your'very best and to pay the price it takes to be a winner," Wolfe said.

In July 1994, hundreds of thousands of elhnic Hu1us streamed . across the border into Zaire, fleeing a victorious rebel army dominaled by Tutsis. Ugiramahoro and his two younger brolhers, also members of .!lie Rwandan boxing learn, were part of thai exodus. From Kigali, Rwaqda's capital, they carried boxing gloves, a jump rope, 1'1'0 hand dumbbells and !raining clothes. Rwanda's national team had 12 boxers before the war resumed in the spring of 1994. Four were members of the Tutsi minority, and Ugiramahoro suspects they all were slain in mass killings carried out by Hutu extremisls. He hasn't seen the olher Hutu team · members, bul believes they are probably in other refugee camps. Ugimmahoro's brother Jean-Paul Mbarushimana says they will remain in Mugunga because il isn 'I safe for Hurus to rerum to Rwanda. He says they were not involved in lhe genocide campaign waged by HuiU militias. "Yes, we're fighters," Mbarushimana says. "Boxing teaches you discipline, 10 slick 1oge1her, and 10 love and care aboul one another." Ugiramahoro and his brolhers began boxing as children. Rwanda's firsl greal international boxer, Ferdinand Rutikanga, used 10 !rain in their neighborhood. Ugiramahoro and his brothers made boxing gloves by wrapping their fisls with banana leaves. They pounded the walls of lhe tin latrine behind their house, using it as a punching bag. Each in lurn joined Rutikanga's learn, laler won spo1s on the national learn, and dreamed of fighling professionally. . Now, the Mugunga Boxing Club organizes its own bouts on occasional weekends, inviting Zairian boxers from Goma or other Hulu bOxers from neamy camps. Refugees pay I ,000 Zaires- about 4 cents10 watch an af1ernoon of boxing. In a hall made from plastic sheeting, the club has buill a ring wilh a dirt floor and sisal ropes and pul up 30 rows of wooden bleachers. There is a ring announcer, scoring judges, coaches in the corners, a fight doctor and a woman who displays lhe number card between rounds. Ugiramahoro enters lht> ring wearing the skin of a sported cat tied over his shbulders. The crowd erupts with cheers of "Rwanyungi" when he backs his opponent against lhe ropes. .. .

By The Altoel4lted Preu After all the distraclions of his celebrated rookie season, it's hard to imagine Hideo Nomo pitching in one of those "B" games.

The Dodgers are looking at so many pitchers this spring, that they don 't need to pay much auention to last year's Rookie of the Year. They can use him in morning· games, where the scores aren 't even announced. "People were clicking their cameras when I was in the bullpen," he said. "Even after !took the mound,, people kept walking by, standing, talking and laughing behind home "plate .! couldn't concentrate because of that." ' In Noma's first outing of the spring last Sunday. he retired nine of the I 0 batters he faced during a three-inni11g stint against Houston. This time, he pitched four hitless innings- albeit sloppy ones. Nomo threw 64 pitches, only 34 of which were for suikes. He said he had trouble concentrating on the practice field used for the game because of lhe pro1limity of lhe fans and reporters. "My balance wasn't right during my setup position and my windup, which affected the control," he said through an interpreter.

Anthony, and that's unfortunate;: says Joni Masuicca, president of the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Foundation in Seneca Falls, N.Y. "But it's also understandable . Anthony didn't have seven kids or a husband or a house to take care of by her§elf." By all Women's measures, History Month the women . were a study in contrast. Susan B.

Stanton was the senior membCr of the partnership. Five years older. she was the bener orator and writer. She was president, and Anthony vice president, in various suffrage organizations. And her gregarious nature led her cozy kite hen to be dubbed .. the conversation center." But make no mistake: Despite her comfortable look and genial ways, Stanton made her way at great personal cost. She was disinherited by her father (and reinstated in his will just before his death). And she received only lukewarm support from her husband, a traveling lecturer on social reform who was rarely at home and often opposed . her views . HSome- · times, Susan.

The experience so moved her that one day, when she was I 0 years old, Stanton took her father's law books and marked the unjust statutes with a pencil so she could cut them out with scissors. "I thought that if I could only destroy those laws," she later wrote, "those poor women would have no further trouble." Several years later, Stanton grad· uated from the nation's first school of higher education for girls, Emma a case before the U.S. Willard's Troy Supreme Court; Female Semipainter Georgia nary in RensO' Keeffe; civil rights P '·' , ,,, selaer County.

In fact, Johnson adds, the odea for the Stanton-Anthony Conversations came out of a pannership gun. Of course, a dog, fox, or cal may have bobbed the little rodent's tail. For two days the chipmunk climbed up the walnut tree on the river bank to jump over onto the bird feeder and fill his cheek pouches with bird seeds. The first jump or two was humorous to watch. The little ground squirrel couldn't decide how 10 get 10 the delicious seed. He crawled out onto the metal arm attached· to the feeder roof from the tree, but the roof of the feeder overhung the feeder ' ponion and he couldn't figure out how to get from A to B. The chipmunk climbed back to the tree trunk and jumped for the feeder. He caught the edge with his front paws and swung as .if he were on a trapeze for a moment before he . pulled himself to ihe safety of the feeding ledge. After that, his jumps became graceful and accurate. We have named the little chipmunk "Stripes."

BAILEY The Detroit News You think you 're stressed out? Try studying for a killer algebra test, worrying about the playground bully or having to move to anotber city and make friends all over again. · To help kids cope with the ups and downs of childhood come authors Sheldon and Sheila Lewis with "Stress-Proofing Your Child: Mind· Body Exercises to Enhance Your Child's Health" (Bantam Books, $10.95). The guide outlines physical and mental activities like yoga, imagery and meditation that alleviate the · pressures ·of growing up; the authors tested them on their own two chil· dreti. The book is geared to children ages 5 to 12. . "Kids are more stressed," says Sheila Lewis by phone with her busband from their relatively unstressful New York home. The 43-year-old is a program consultant for the Girl Scouts of the USA, where she trains leaders and girls in topics related to stress-proofing, creativity and conflict resolution. "If you just look around, these are more stressful times for children and their parents. There's violence and drugs in schools, things we didn't have to consider as children." Sheldon Lewis, 47, is editor of The Natural Way, a health magazine published six times yearly. Through a variety of exercises, children are -taught to develop a positive attitude when coping with stressful situations. One example, called "Thought Bubbles," suggests children draw a head and a bubble filled with negative thoughts. They are th~n asked to draw a bubble on the opposite side of the head, filled with positive ways to look at the situation. · LEGAL NOTIC.E The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio has set for public hearing Case No. 95-1 OHL -EFC. to review the fuel procurement practices and poli· cies of ·ohio Power Company, the operation of its Electric Fuel Com· ponenl and related matters.

But that was before poet Debra Conner spen t a two-week residency in their classroom in the fall of 1994, meeting with them 90 minutes each day. During one session. Conner handed out captions she had clipped from . magazines and instructed the students to fashi on poems from the words. : · "That assignment turned out some of the best poems," recalled Perrin, who' :· wrote poetry along with her students. "We were so surprised. because at first , the kids said, 'We can't do this: this is weird, this is crazy. You're asking a lot of us here.' But with some thought, the kids turned out some deep writing. They were very proud of themselves," she added. The two weeks of intensive study ended with an eveni ng of poetry in the school cafeteria. Paren ts watched approvi ngly as studen ts reci ted the poems they had writ· ten during the residency. The class also prepared a poetry booklet with a biog- . raphy section and picture of each student poet. ·. ·The artist residency at Meigs Jun ior High was funded in part by the Ohio. , Ans Council, which has begun a major initiative to enco urage arts educa- · tion and cultural activities in 19 of the state's Appalachi an coun ties and in . urban Appalachian neighborhoods in Cin cinnati and Dayton.

Peoples Bank of Point Pleasant, Mason and New Haven has been the top money-raising team every year since the Tri-County" WaikAmerica began in 1990, and last year were ranked in the top I00 Wal kAmerica teams in the country.

' By ROBERT GREENE AP Farm Writer WASHINGTON - State and federal officials are trying to account for all the Arizona wheat seed contami, nated with a crop-damaging fungus known in Mexico but found in the United States for the first time. The Agriculture Department confirmed late Friday that durum wheat seed found during routine testing ear· tier this week by the Arizona Depart· ment of Agriculture was contaminated with kama! bunt. The discovery has prompted .an emergency quarantine and ban on exports from the state, the Agriculture Department's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service said. Arizona wheat is shipped to Sau· di Arabia and other parts of, the Mid· die East. Twenty-one countries ban the import of tainted wheat. Although the fungus stunts the crop and affects the taste, it does not cause illness, said Keith Kelly, Arizona's director of agriculture. The discovery is especially puzzling because durum wheat, used to make pasta, is thought to be resistant. Much of the durum was a special variety being grown on contract for a U.S. miller, which makes it easier to trace the wheat. Kelly declined to identify the miller. Kelly said the fungus, or smut, was found at a Phoenix seed dealer· ship by a state employee training to be a seed analyst. The employee had a background in plant pathology and recognized the fungus. me one ·named senior representative for . :eus.iness Systems .in SEO region I out .. "Because it's a certified seed wheat crop, there's a very good paper trail," he added. Most of the crop was confined to an isolated, southwestern pan of the state, "surrounded by a lot of desert." "It's not one grower, but it's one area of a general farming operation and they have se vera I growers, " he said. Kelly declined to be more specific because of efforts to work with the head of the operation. He also left open the possibility that the seed was sold in New Mexico and to other Arizona fanns. The plant disease has been reported in Afghanistan, India, Iraq, Pakistan and Mexico. Still, no one is officially speculating how the fungus arrived in a relatively isolated part of souihwest Arizona. However. there is considerable rail and truck traffic between the United States and Mexico, although Mexican wheat is banned . The fungus is spread by spores, which can be wind borne. United States farm trade surplus sets all-time record WASHINGTON (AP)-Gains in most categories of exports pushed the U.S . agricultural trade surplus to a record $25.8 billion last year. That was 37 percent higher than the 1994 surplus. Export$.totaled $55.8 billion, also a record. Imports were up 12 percent, to $30 billion, with much of the increase coming in rubber. coffee and cattle. The Agriculture Department said sales to China and the Pacific Rim accounted for a large part of the growth. Highlights of the report: - Beefexports rose 15 percent to $2.6 billion; half the volume went to Japan. - Poultry shipments were up 29 percent to $2 billion: Russia bought $600 million worth . -Cotton growers exported $3.7 billion worth, up $1 billion from 1994. China bought $800 million of the crop. -Exports of fresh vegetables were unchanged at $3.9 billion, half of which went to Japan and Canada. - Higher citrus values pushed up :fruit exports by 16 percent, to $2.7 . billion. 7 Shipments of U.S. wheat totaled 32.3 million tons. up 6 percent; their value rose 34 percent 10 son costs excluding meals: $60.00 for pests diseases.

Picture a barely ghmmenng mterior, a mean hallway narrowtng into darkness, one pomt of cethng hght Vtstble Picture smoky J&ZZ clubs, !he • hunched hne of a player's arm, qutet streets, a figure snung by a stoop. Photographer Roy DeCarava, who has been descnbed as a poet of hght, captures subJects hke these. He brmgs them out of thetr shadows, m a sense, but leaves the shadows m, too, where they should be. A generous retrospective of DeCarava's work, around 200 bl;u;k and white photographs made between 1949 and 1994, most of !hem luivmg thetr first ~aJor showmg, ts at the Museum of Modem Art through May 7 It wtll then begm a national tour to museums 10 Chtcago, Houston, San Franctsco, Atlanta and Washmgton, D.C., among other ctues. DeCarava was born m Harlem 10 1919 He has always hved tn New York Ctty and has almost always photographed m the ctty he loves. " How could you not love somewhere where you've spent all your hfe," he Sllld at a medta prevtew "It's compact, crowded, so much energy, so many people and places to go It's my city." He worked as an tllustrator before turning to photography tn the late 1940s In 1952 he became the first black Amencan to wm a Guggenhetm Fellowship, and he used 11 to take a year to photograph Harlem. "Photography had never seen such ptctures - ptctures at once so unsenumental, so sensual, so mtimaci, and so tender," says Peter Galasst, the museum's chtef curator of photography, who organtzed the show Usmg a hand-held camera and avatlable hght then as now, DeCarava wlis free to wander, pattently, observantly, among the scenes that drew him. fanuliar streeU, and !he modest rooms mstde, where netghbors and fanuly went about thetr hves He followed his love of mustc and mustctans mto the Jazz clubs; he explored the garment dtstnct and tts working people, and ctvll nghts protests of the 1960s The tmages have an mvltlng, perhaps deceptive, stmphcity, a stillness that gtves the vtewer time and space to apprectate !he balance between an area of hght and a pool of shadow. In these photographs, a gleam or a reflection seems as real and present as a bnght whole A mtghty cause ts suggested by the upress10n on one marcher's f;u;e Oonaral Mainltnonce, PelnUng.

"Black and white" ts an inexact term for DeCarava's work. Rather, Galass1 said, he "loves the luxurious subtlety of photography's infimtely div1s1ble scale of grays." Sherry Turner DeCarava, DeCarava 's w1fe, art htsion1111 and curator, ts executive dtrector of The DeCarava Archives from which all but four of the prints tn the exhtbition are drawn "This show probably covers a larger samplmg of the contents of !he archives !han any show so far,," she Sllld. "This ts !he first ume !hat a trearn I matns , matn me center of photography bas said tt's time to do this " DeCarava •s passtonate about his an and he's dehghted to talk about tL · "To me it's a vttal part of the human condibon," he satd. "We all make art because we have to Makmg art ts the highest form of communtcation, tt's the way people talk to ea,ch other " DeCarava says he photographs what moves htm.

Several local and state candidates joined Fowler and nearly 60 people at !he Saturday fund raiser for !he Gallia County nalive's House campaign. Referring 10 Rep. John Carey's proposed House Bill 440, which will created rural induslrial parks in Ohio, Fowler slated that rural induslrial parks are useless withoul highways 10 and from Ihem. "Without a four-lane highway system in Southeast Ohio to move goods into and oul of these rural induslrial parks. all we will have is big emply Fowler also quoted an Akron Beacon-Journal saory on Carey and House Bill 440, which revealed provisions in lhe bill for lhe use of slate monies in construction of a parking garage near The Limited's Columbus corporate headquaners. JEFF FOWLER parking lois in !he middle of corn· fields. We have to have highways built, like we were promised over awenly years ago, in southeast Ohio," said Fowler. "According to state commiuee teslimony1-milliontof dollars in slate money were going 10 be used loward building !his garage for The Lirnired. Yel, when John Carey was asked about the provision in his own bill by a commiuee chair in hearings, he couldn't give anyone an answer as to why lhe provision was in House Bill 440. This is an example of our representalion in Columbus," said Fowler. Fowler, a school leacher in !he Trimble Local disaricl, also slressed !he need for equal educaaion to "give lhe children of southeasl Ohio a fighting chance in the ever changing workplace." "George Voinovich, the educati on governor, boasted in his slate of the slate speech on the increases in !he slate private school voucher program.
