RIO GRANDE - Thirty of 34
school districts in the Ohio SchoolNet South Region have been
approved for SchooiNet Plus funding
to acquire an array of classroom technology resources, according to
Sharon Yates, Ph.D., director of the
Rio Grande-based South Regional
Professional Development Center.
The SchooiNet South Region
includes Gallia, Jackson, Lawrence,
Scioto. Ross,' Pike, Highland and
Adams counties.
The $400 million SchoolNet Plus
program, approved by.th~ legislature ,
in\June 1995, provides money for
technology upgrades in the class·
room. It offers the equivalent of one
interactive computer work station-for
every five children enrolled in grades
4-11 in all 611 of Ohio's school dislticts.
SchuoiNet funds can be used for
professional development and to purchase computer hardware. software,
equipment, services and two-way
audio or visual equipment.
The $95 million Ohio SchooiNet
program offers classroom wiring for
data, voice and video transmission, as
well as computerS for low-wealth
school districts.
"Within our rural region, the technology resources available through
SchooiNet and SchooiNet Plus are
providing wide-ranging opportunities
for botb practitioners and students to
engage in practices that prepare them
for next-century thinking," Yates

House will vote on
By DAVID ESPO
Aaaoelated Pren Writer
WASHINGTON - The House
will vote within two weeks on an
election-year hike in the minimum
wage , Republican leaders announced
Friday in a hard-won concession to
minority Democrats and GOP modcrates.
In a writlen statement, Speaker
Newt Gingrich and Majority Leader
Dick Arrney said tl\e vote would
come as part of debate on GOP-draft·
ed legislation to "create opportunity
and increase the take-hOme pay of
low· wa&amp;e · workers." Many of the
provisions under discussion would
provide tax relief for small business
and make changes in labor law.

Tragedy continues.plaguing R~manian ~rphans
WASHINGTON - The situation
of Romania's orphans is one of the
world's ongoing tragedies, exacerbated by the same kind of xenophc&gt;.
bia th&amp;t caused its citizens tq·submit
to the dictatorship ofNicolae Ceausescu for decades.
There are now more than I 00,000
institutionalized children in Romania, and their living conditions are
often primitive. Though the numbers
had fallen at one point, the current
figure.s are close to the number discovered after Ceausescu was over- .
thrown in 1989.
The government's unwillingness
to change its orphanage policies
caused one of tbe most indefatigable
relief organizations, Doctors Without Borders, to leave Romania last
year.
And the government's refusal to
pennit massive adoption, based on
stubborn insistence that Rmrianian
children should stay "home," perpetuates the insanity Ceausescu
began. Only 269 Romanian children
were allowed to be adopted last year
byAmerican familie~ - a process
that can sometimes take years and
involve significant bribes to government officials. That tiny number
· makes no dent in the number of children being institutionalized because
of the poverty of their parents or
other reasons.
·
Our associate Dale VanAtta was
one of the first to visit Romania's
orphanages after Ceausescu's fall.
He saw first-hand the tragedy
wrought by an epidemic of HIW
inf~~ted infants. Incredibly, nearly
90 percent of all AIDS victims in
Romania at the time were children
under the age of4. Most were infected by dirty needles used for as many
as a dozen patients before being
cleaned or discarded.
Various relief agencies have been
successful 'in improving the lot of
the infected, since these infants consiituted a minor percentage of the
more than I00,000 in orphanages.
· But the rest get little attention, no
more than a few minutes each day.
Doctors Without Borders, in its
farewell report, . estimated that at
least one in 10 of these children will

tions - if tbey live

Posure eludes them. Decade after decade.
: For many of the aging survivors of the 'missing from America's "forgot-len war," only thetrown deaths will end the uncertainty of the fate of a brother, father, husbana, son.
: Korea, June 25, 1950, to July 27, 1953. Officially, 33,629 killed in action ,
8,100 missing.

with tours in Korea and Vietnam, during the conflict there, who is also the
(t~Ughrer of a fanner commanding general ar.Fort Jackson.
: · "They've given a lor a publicity to Vietnam," she said, ruefully, an atti·

about the Korean War," she said.

"For long time, we had hopes he mighl be a POW," Miss Martin said.
"We listened to every name on the radio in· 53 when the (AJiied) POWs were
released and came home. Of course, his name wasn't among them.
"Then, the government declared him officially dead. We don't know. No
body has ever been found. We don't know that he's dead. We've been denied
closure, we have, we have."
More distant in time than Vietnam, Korea's missing are four times more
numerous than those of the Vietnam War. They 're also, s'urvivors and their
advocates contend, far more removed from public and official'consciousness.
In February, those groups won a major victory when Congress pas~ the
Missing Service Personnel Act providing for leg~l recourse to any Pentagon
stalling and withholding of information.
"They' re difficult to deal with," said AI Sanroli, press secretary 10 Rep.
Robert Dornan, R-Calif., a former Air Force pilot and critic of Pentagon handlirig of MIA recovery. "They give Congress lhe same kind of runaround.
That's why we're so frustrated in the lack of cooperation from DOD and olher agencies. The Korean {amilies (of M!As) have lhe same problem the Viet·

• Vasser drove his Reynard-Handa
l!!'ound. the high-banked, two-mile
.oval in 31.031 seconds, averaging
232.025 mph to earn the pole. Adrian Fernandez was next at 231.108 in

'.'You always think you can do

said Vasser, 'who also won the pole
at the ·JndyCar Australia, a road
course race he won at Surfers Par·
adise in-March. "The Honda engine
has a lot of power."
, The qualifying run was made in
less than 1deal conditions. A heavy

The U.S. 500 was born of a rift
bet ween Championship Auto Racing
· Teams, the organization which runs
the IndyCar circuit, and lndianapo·
lis Motor Speedway owner Tony
George. When George ruled that 25
of the 33 starting places for the 80th
running of the Indy 500 would be
reserved for members of bis rival .
Indy Racing League, CART owners
elected to hold their own race on
. May 26.
Vasser, the points leader for the
PPG Cup, defended the formation of
the rival race. 'He said most of lhe
drivers prefer competing against the
best in the business. This year, that
means the field at MIS rather than at
Indy.
"My rookie year, Rick Mears was
in the race, and AI Unser and Mario
Andrelti.'' Vasser said. "And those
guys down there (at Indy) are miss·
ing all that. And 'that's something lhat
can never be replaced.
"Memorial Day weekend is traditionally a big weekend. So that's
always going to be. But we're not
going to be there. We had to pack up
and move on."
AI Unser Jr., who has won twice
at Indy, agreed with the split. Yet.he
conceded the move was ·difficult for
him.
"I miss it down ther~ very
much,'' Unser said. "But this is what
we have to do. So, given the choice

u.s. 500

of driving at Indy or driving the best
car in the world, I'm going to drive
the best car in the world."
Unser was in the middle of row 2
after the qualifying round with a lap
at 230.213 in a Penske-Mercedes. He
will be tlanked on lhe starting grid
by Alex Zanardi in a Reynard-Handa and Andre Ribeiro in a Lola-Hon·
da . .
Adrian Fernandez had the fastest
practice lap 'both Friday and Satur·
day. His best practice laps were
233.402 and 235.608, bolh of which
were faster than Vasser's pole lime.
"To be honest, we thought we
could bear that 232," Fernandez
said. "Conditions changed from the
first time we were out. This morning,
we were driving 233's on our own.
But this afternoon, we couldn't get
any more speed. We did our best.
"I'm happy. This is the best I've
ever dpne in qualifying. But I felt I
· had a chance to get to the pole."
Earning the pole also earned
Vasser the $100,000 .Marlboro Pole
Award. A victory in the race would
mean an extra $45,000 in bonus
money, along with the $1 million

Knicks top Bulls 102-99 in OT . ·
By CHRIS SHERIDAN
NEW YORK (AP) -The Bulls
can indeed be beaten, even wilh
Michael Jordan at his unbelievable
best.
1
The New York Knicks proved
that Saturday, overcoming Jordan's
46 points and incredible late-game
heroics for a I02-99 overtime victory over the Bulls that cut Chicago's
lead to 2-1 in lhe best-of-seven
series.
Game 4 is late today.
Like so · many Knicks·Bulls
games in pas! playoffs, this one was
memorable. New York controlled the
game until the final minuie and a
half, when Jordan erased an eight-

winner's purse.

Vasser's speed topped lhe pole
speed of last year's Marlboro 500
pole winner. Parker Johnstone, who
started first with a qualifying speed
of 230.458. The track record at MIS

dhose it had to compromise on the player selections. Let's jus~ call it our

the Atlanta Hawks cut down
Shaquille O' Neal's numbers.
Tile Orlando Magic star " only"
had 28 points and nine rebounds in
leading the defending Eastern Conference champions to a 120-94 rout
of the Hawks on Friday night .
, " We did a beuer job on him

Laettner said, referring to the shots
O'Neal took in scoring 41 points in

Hardaway's health could be u factor in whether the Magic are able to
retain control. He began Game 2
with a tender left hamstring and sat
out the fou"h quarter after straining
his right hamstring.
His st;~tus for the next game was
to be evaluated today.
"If I can' t play, I'm going to sit
it out. But I think I'll be able to go,"
the All-Star point guard said, adding
that his left hamstring has been both·

Orlando's first-round series against
Detroit.

Trainer Lenny Currier said a
decision on the third-year pro's
availability may 'not be made until

Hardaway said he' ll have the final
say.
"It's my body," hj: said, "and

Tile tents are similar to dome
tents, bot they have a frame of oiltempered steel non-memory rods
sewn into the tent. When. the tent is
taken out or its circular or oval carrying case and tossed into the air,
those rods uncoil and pop the tent
into shape.
For some models, that's all that's

fiberglass rods are inscned into
sleeves and poked into the ground to

GREENFIELD LAKE -- The
lake was drained and restocked in
1989 mostly with channel catfish and
largemouth bass. Fish with soft plastic baits near the submerged brush
piles located along the dam when
seeking largemouth bass. Traditional baits sucll as night crawlers and
chicken livers should be fished along
the bottom during rsvening to take
channel catfish.

I just read your Golden Rules for

Rules:
.· if you sleep on it -- make it up.

If you wear it •• hang it up.
If you drop it - pick it up.
If you eat out of it - put it in lhe

If you spill it .. wipe it up.
If you empty it •• fi II it up.
If it rings ·· answer it.
If it howls ·· feed it.
If it cries •• love it .

please do so. •• Louise McCall, California
Dear Louist: I do, and I did.
Thanks for a gO&lt;J:d stan for a Saturday.
Dear Ami Landers: What, if any -

thing, should I do when I see people
stealing food in the grocery store?
They take fruit, candy and nuts and
put them in their mouths. I' ve seen
people open packages or cookies
and stand there eating rJ!em as if it
were perfectly OK to do so. What'seven worse is that they do this in lhe
presence of their children. They may
not realize it, ·but they are teaching
Iheir children to shoplift.
The store managers I have .
informed about this ju~t shrug their
shoulders and raise prices. Is i~ fair
that decent people should have to
pay for the boorishness and dishonesty of ochers? I would appreciate

your comments on this .•. Wi~etka,

many people carry knives and guns
these days. My· advice is M.Y.O.B.
Meanwhile, if your children are wilh
you, let them know that they should

'GALLIPOLIS· A garden and a guild have to be plmned, 5..-ud and-wr&lt;
ture4. A seed starts a garden, an idea starts a guild. A little more tlwl a~
ago in friendly cooperation wilh Meigs County herbalists, Helen Lewis~
Cora Mill, and Marilyn King from Rio Grande were joined by Etta AI..,;
Liz Altizer, Marilyn Barron, Lori Barron. Ma~t Y Edelmann and Bub""*':
.as the original ei&amp;ht to from the Gallia Area Herb Guild.
·
'·• •
To implement it' s
community project goal,
a physicians garden at
Ri verby was proposed
and accepted by the
French An Colony
Board. FAC provided the
garden plot for the project. So far the ground
has been plowed, tilled
"~ •.
and ready for planting. A plant sale on May !G-Il, from 10 • 4 p.in. eacb'43y.
at Davisons Greenhouse, 4530 Clay Chapel Rd ., is planned with lhe 'proceeds of chis sale to provide the meaos for planting the project.
~ ,• · .
A garden was Mrs. Alma Holzer's idea. A house built by Dr. Geclrtie
Washington Livesay on First Avenue in the year 1855 became a home-for
another physician. A young surgeon, the founder of the Holzer Cliniq·and
Hospiuil, Dr. Charles E. Holzer boughtlhe propeny in November, 191 &amp;: ~
it became known as "Riverby". It is the present home of lhe French~
Colony and the gardens that Mrs. Holzer planned.
·· ,
Originally, ihere .was not enough room for a fonnal garden. A pro~ .
next door was purchased and the house on it torn down. Only a dogY&amp;Qd
tree next to lhe house remained and became Mrs. Holzer's favorite. lil'tl]e
spring time she would stop her friends on the street asking: "Have you·stelj
my dogwood in bloom?" And a magnificent sight it was and still is. So,'I'.P
asking you now - Have YOU seen the dogwood tree in Riverby yahf'in
bloom? You should.
•:·· ··
The formal garden Mrs. Holzer built arouAd the rectangull!f refleetioh
pond was ablaze with colors the year round, but viewed from the sCidon\1
floor windows of the Holzer Hospital next door, the sight in the spring !;!Ill_~
was breach-taking. After the dogwood bloomed, lhere came the ane"'l1!'ies
and the early daylilies in abundance and everywhere in lhe formal g.O:
with other perennials and flowering bushes to follow.
::: ;
This is where the "Riverby Physic Garden" is planted. Keep askint~:=:ili
WH.oJ'?" and you 'll soon learn more about it.
,
&gt;!.• ::
· It was sometime back•.maybe it was 1987~ Dr. Charles, the prese,£c-~ .
Ho1~r and I were talking about trees. He recalled lhat .every time one•
children were born, his Mother planted a tree in her garden or on the lotnM\
to lhe house. We found the fir tree planted for Dr. Charles, but another oile
planted for his brother, was gone. That's when I asked Dr. Charles abourthe
Ship-Mast-Locust-Tree chat Louis Bromfield planted during his visit •t9
Riverby. A friend of Dr. Holzer's, the author Bromfield was a firm con!ervationist. Yes, the same Bromfield from Malababar farm where Humphn!¥
Bogan and Lauren Bacall got married.
'
'';:"
. Well, we didn't find the ship-mast-locust-tree because we probably dtd~
n't know what we were looking for. I have to ask Mrs. Bobby Holzer, slie' il
know.

By RATTI SINGER
Rochttater Democrat and Chronicle ,
·
Al28, Kelly Colley knows all about the pain of osteoporosis.
She already has watched her grandmother suffer from the disease, which
cau'!s bones to tum thin and fragile. The older woman's posture became so
stOOJied that her rib cage scraped her hip bone - a sneeze or a cough was
enoagh to crack her rib~.
·
~ow, Colley is concerned for her own mother - ·and for herself.
P,amily history is among 1he risk factors for osteoporosis, which affects
25 million Americans, mostly post-menopausal women like Colley 's mother, P~t Kita of Brigh(on, N.Y.
When Colley sees her mother slouching, she thinks of her hunched-over
. grandmother, who died two years ago.
.:
·
"It obviously made me more aware," said Colley, who talks with her
niother about how they might prevent the disease.
·
Such discussions are rare among younger women . After all, the disease
does not show itself until late in life; most people are close.to 80 when they
sustain t)le hip fractures associated with osteopprosis. Younger people may
not feel threatened.
•.
·
But that is a mistake. The seeds of osteoporosis are planted in childhood,
when eating and exercise habits are formed. Oetting adequate calcium and
regular exercise is like putting·money in ihe bank for retirement.
Experts fear too many young women are hurting themselves by being
sedentary, abusing alcohol, replacing milk and its bone-building calcium
with sodas, or going on a fad diet that doesn't provide adequate nutrients.
When today's women need to make withdrawals from their "bone ban~,"
they might find that they are broke.
And women often are more concerned with breast cancer i han osteoporosis. although they make up 80 percent of its victims. Osteoporosis poses
its own serious risks: Bones as delicate as lace break under the slightest pres. sure. The. disease's trademark spine and hip fractures force women into riurs:
ing homes.
O!iteoporosis costs Americans $10 billion each year, a figure expected to
rise as the population ages. New drugs can treat the disease, but experts prefer prevention.
·
·
·
Bones change tbroughout life, for both men and women. Until about 30,
more bone is built than is lost. But that effort can be sabotaged by long-tenn
use of certain medications, poor nutrition , eating disorders such as anorexia
nervosa or obsessive exercise that results in a loss of menstrual periods.
The effects of caffeine, tobacco. alcohol or a high-protein diet are !ess

Stephanie was elated to report
Jane had successfully completed her
training and had graduated from
Pilot Dogs, Inc. Stephanie continued
by e•plaining her family was ,
thrilled and amazed 'that Jane had
become such a heroine in her adult
dog life. As a pup, Jane had been
rather mischievous, to say the least.
'The Alexander family had wondered if Jane would ever grow up to
be an obedient, fllature dog. Jane
had nearly wrecked their eldest
daughter's birthday by helping herself to the cake before it was frosted;
and, at a later date, chewing up the
Alexander's only Rex-Steel chair.
One of Jane's calmer approaches to
an unstructured life style, was to
take up residence in the Alexander's
stagnate, water-fille_d d.rainage ditch
behind the house dunng a summer
heat spell .
Jane overcame all those unladylike behaviors and is now assisting a
young gentleman . Stephanie said
she was extremely pleased to
observe Jane's "charge" was dressed
in jeans and a flannel shtrt because
Jane, the dog I he Alexanders knew
and loved, was definitely a "casual"
dog. The Alexanders hope Jane has
changed her frequent bad conduct
for always good conduct; and the
young man will nol find food missing from his plate, be subjected to a

. '."; . .---------People in·the news-------...,---SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Eddie Murphy finally apologized for somethin&amp; he said IS years ago- when he was young, delirious and uninformed.
During his 1981 HBO special, "Delirious," Murphy talked about promiscuily and sexually transmined diseases and, said AIDS might be transmit1
ted through kissing.
"I think it's unfair to take the words of a misinformed 21-year-old and apply them to an
infonned 35-year-old man," Murphy said in a
statemem Friday. " I want to once again go on the
record as sayi ng that I'm not homophobic and I'm
not anti-gay. "
AIDS activists had tried unsuccessfully with
their protests to pressure David Lettennan to drop
Murphy as a guest from Thursday night's "Late
Show," being taped at the Palace of Fine Ans.
"I know AIDS isn't funny .... I deeply regret any
pain all this has caused," Murphy said. His statement was signed, " Peace, Jove and condoms, Eddie

SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (AP) - It will be a while longer before an American rock group plays live in Vietpam.
.
·Carlos Santana and his band were to appear Tuesday at Phan Dinh Phung
Stadium in Ho Chi Minh City, the first live U.S. rock act to play in Vietnam
since the war ended in 1975.
.
City officials approved the concert, but the Vietnamese national govern·
men! failed to respond in time, Santana said.
.
Santana blamed the cancellation on the "political climate in Vietnam."
" We are disappointed that the government would not give us the approval
to play," he said. "It would have been an honor to perform for the people of
Vietnam."
Instead, the group best known for its 1960s-era songs such as " Black
Magic Woman" and "Oye Como Va" will perform in Thani, Thailand, as
part of its Southeast Asian tour.

' GALLIPOLIS - May begins the
great season of college ~ommen~ements. It
a t1me of gtV"
ing graduation
gifts to those
college seniors.
One excellent
gift idea is giving a child,
grandchild,
niece or nephew
an IRA.* If they
have worked '(or
--plan to work) and earn at least
$2,000 in the current year, a full
contribution can be made on thetr
behalf. If they will not earn $2,000
in the year, then a contribution qn
·be made equaling up .to 100% of
their total income, but no more.
Let's look at what a gift can do to
a retirement account over time:
: Pamela's grandparents give her the
· gift of a new IRA. She st:ms con· tributing to it at age 21, mvesU{Ig
: $2,000 a year until age 65.
James on the other hand,
·~receives a' brand new stereo so he
: doesn' t start contributing to his IRA
: until age 26, investing $2,000 a year

WASHINGTON (AP) - Because
· ~f historic dry weather in the Plains
and freeze damage in the Midwest,
the Agriculture Department forecast
winter wheat harvest of I .36 billion
bushels - the lowest since 1978.

.
What is the difference in the total
of their accounts· at age 65? ~n
amazing '$555,625 !** (and Pamela
only had to contribute $10,000 more
than James). Pamela's account grew
to $1,435 ,810 while James' account
grew to $888,135. Although both are
impressive, it's like comparing a.
Ferrari to a Yugo when you add up
the difference.
Gifting an IRA for gmduation
will teach these young adults good
saving habits by investing each year
and watching their money grow. The
future of Social Security is very
uncertain ... anyone born 1960 or
after will not reach full retirement
until age 67 - and even that age may
be raised! So, ,-hy not be a hero and
· give a gift of $2,000 'to open an IRA
for their children, grandchildren,
other relatives or friends.
. · ·You must be at least 18 years of
age to open an IRA.
•• Assuming 10% annua 1
growth.

lind your families, H~ppy Mother's
Day! Many mothers will be honored
. tOday with gifts of plants ; corsages,
bouquets of flowers, hanging baskets,
flats of annuals/perennials, roses,
shrubs Gr trees. How should they be
taken care ofl
Corsages and bouquets of flowers
can have their life extended by refrig·
crating them at night. Make sure no
apples are in the refrigerator, as
apples release ethylene ga&amp; which
shortens the life of flowers. Cut
flower bouquets should have their
stems re-cbt and vase water changed
every one to two days. Utilize the noraJ preservatives given with your purcha.Se of the cut flowers.
Maintain the health of your hanging basket by placing it in the right
location. Check to see if it prefers sun
or shade and whether it likes dry or
moist soil conditions. Research has
·proven that fertilizing your basket on
a 7-10 day schedule will greatly
improve its performance.
Wan! beautiful annuals, perennials, and roses? Take the time to properly dig ·up the flower bed . Add
organic maller to the bed if needed.
Make sure the soil is well drained.
Consider creating a raised bed three
to four inches higher than the sur'

root system when planting to force
the roots into tlie surrounding soil.
Give the plants being ·set an initial
boost of fertilizer by applying a
water soluble dose of fertilizer. This
pro~ides the plant with an immediate
·availability of nutrients to create
new roots. The water also helps
eliminate air pockets around the
roots.
Trees and shrubs need to develop
a root system to survive.' So don't put
a twenty dollar plant in a ten dollar
hole, dig a hundred dollar hole large_
enough for the roots to grow out into
without any_competition from grass
or other plants. Most of the plant's
roots will be in the top six to twelve
inches of soil. Keep· the plants
watered this summer and fail.

New farm bill will change way FSA does business!.

By JIM HERRELL

GALLIPOLIS - There is a lot of
discussion that the new farm bill
changed the way we do business. IT
ISALL TRUE.
We are still trying to sort through
all the new information so that we
can give you answers to some of your
questions We do kno.w there should
be more interest in the Agricultural
Market Transition Act (AMTA).
Here are sQme reasons we think

there will be more interest;
NO SET-ASIDE. This means you
do not idle land to participate. ·
NO PLANTING RESTRIC.TION. This means that all cropland
can be plan1ed to your base crop or
any other crops except fruits and veg'etabies.
ONE-TIME ·SIGN-UP. This
. means that if you ever intend to par·
ticipate in the next seven years you
must sign into ihe contract this year

At River Valley . .

Ferguson; Walker,
rees .

PAYMENTS ESTABLISHED.
All the money to the spent by crop by
year has been allocated. The only
unknown is how many· people will
participate The amount of participation (nationwide) will determine the
portion of !he allocated money you
w.ill receive for your base.
These are just some of the changes
in thC'I996 farm bill. If you are interested in reviewing the program further piea.Se attend the public meeting

to be held on May 23, at 7 p.m. }n :

i..AK.IN, Kan . (AP) - In a year
~n drought threatens many fanns,
you might expect to find a great
demand for the pilots who ny cloud·

_But the weather has been 100 dry
for them.
· Cloud seeders can' t coax rain

clouds and the southwestern Kansas

''Rainfall is so vll'iable, u you
know, that two or three miles from
your home you miaht have a different amoont." he said. "Our methods
of evaluating rainfall are not yet nearly sophisticated enough."
A recent study in west Texas,
using sophisticated Doppler radar
that can tr01:k rainfall mile by mile,
has indicated that cloud-seeding
efforts can increase rainfall by about
30 percent, Eklund said .
CLINTON,' Wis. (AP) - Farms
along the Illinois-Wisconsin bonder
will be tested for a rare virus known
as "mad itch" after it wiped out more
than 200 animals earlier this year.
The disease, pseudorabies, is not
dangerous to humans, officials say.
Hogs contract the malady and then

can be infeeled if they ll'e bitten by
• sick boa.
Pseudorabies is rare on Wisconsin
farms . State officials said they reaist&lt;r about three cues each year.
To prevent the disease, veterinarians advise fanners to make sure they
receive proper health papen when
imponing hop and to not mix different livestock in a single pen.
Fannen also should wear a different pair of boots on their own ·
property than on neighboring farms
to prevent transmitting the disease,
'
veterinarians say.
The virus killed animals on two
farms in the Clinton area in April.
Officials said the disease could have
been uansmitted from one farm to the
other on 'a worker's clothes.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Cigarettes inflict their worst damage on
the lungs of black w&lt;;&gt;men, acconding
to a study that compared the lung
capacity of different groups of tWO·
pack-a-day smokers and non-smok·
ers.
And while whites who quit smok·
ing regained some breathing capacity, blacks did not - even 20 years
after they quit, said Dr. Henry Glindmeyer, lead author of the study. Both
white and black female smokers l.ost
more capacity than did male smokers
of either race.
".This may help explain why
chronic obstructive lung 'disease
deaths are increasing for women, but
not for men," Glindmcyer said in an
interview. "Reduced air flow is an
. indication of obstruction."

on Mother's Day
Feb 2 , 1933• Dec.2, 1995
II has ~en five months
Since my grandma
passed away
And I sure do miss her
On This Mother's Day
The years we had
together
We.re so very lew
But I have those
precious memories
Of t~e things we used to
do.
She and Pappy .took me
Although that's not what
she liked to do ..
She said, "I don't like
fishing
But I will go with you"
Her work down here Is
fin ished.
Her body laid to rest,
But I know that she's
with Jesus
Because He takes the
best.
Although she's with our
Jesus
And her mother that she
missed so much,
I still miss her smiling
f~ce .
And her gentle touch.
She was a real good
mother
And a great grandma,
too ,
I'll think of her and feel
her near
Each day my whole life
through.
Love,
Me

A nwther's love is something that no one can explain,
It is made of deep devotion and of sacrifice and pain,
It is endless and unselfish and en,during come. what may
For nothing can destroy it or take that love away.
It is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking,
And it never fails or falters even tho~h the heart is breaking.
It is far beyond defining, it defies. all explanation,
And it still remains a secret like the mysteries of creation.
(A Helen Sleiner Rice poem from " Daily Bouqueu ")

Aashjng is used to prevent moisture from entering under the roof covering wherever two or more planes of
a roof meet or wherever the roof
meets a vertical surface. It is also
used along edges of roofs and other
windows or doorways to direct moisture away from the house exterior and
structural framing.
Roll roofing material is widely
used for flashing. particularly along
ridges and hips, and at valleys. However, the most durable flashing materials are sheet ajuminum, copper or
galvanized steel. All are sold in rolls
especially for the purpose.
Chimney flashing is usually in two
parts: the base (or step) flashing,
which wraps completely around the
base of the chimney and extends sev- ·
era! inches unde~ the roof covering,
and the cap (or counter) Hashing,
which covers the top edges of the
base flashing. Sometimes roofing
felt extends up the sides of the chimney, taking the place of metal base
flashing.
Flashing should be inspected at
least once a year, as it is a prime toea-

tion for roof leaks. Look for cracks ally collects water and fun~ls it

congressional Democrats portray their plans as "extreme." .
But House Republicans say they still believe they are on the right side of
the issue and sound undaunted as they plan to pursue their revamped Medicare
plans.
·
"1 think the critical challenge now is to communicate what we are doing
and why we are doiqg it," said Rep. Rob Ponman, R-Cincinnati.
Clinton said last week the GOP's Medicare savings numbers appear to
be :'still too high, butl think it's a movement in the right direction."
About &lt;;:linton's use of the Medicare issue, Portman said, "In an election
year, he bas found an issue that he loves to demagogue."
But congressional Democrats also blasted the new Medicare proposals.
In the tristate, Democratic challengers Mark Longabaugh in the 1st Congressional District and former Rep. Ted Strickland in the 6th Cot\gressional District, are also using Medicare as an issue.

LUCASVILLE (AP) - At any
tour of the state's maximum-security prison, tlie electric chair is one or'
the most popular attractions.
Most visitors seem compell~d to
take a seat, even though 315 people
have died in the chair, Deputy Warden Jim Hieneman said.
"It's a fascinalion," he said.
"Everybody climbs right in."
The S9uthern Ohio Correctional
Faeility held an open house Saturday
to showcase changes made since the
. 11-day riot thai killed nine inmate8 .
and one guard in April 1993.
"People are aware that the riot
happened here, they know a lot of
taxpayer money was spent to renovate it, and they want to see what it
bought," said Warden Terry Collins.
"Basically, the entire prison is· different. Each cellblock has been refurbished."
The state has spent more than $34
million · in riot-related' expenses,
including controlling the uprising,

locks have replaced keys; cells bold

number of prisoners allowed outside ':
their cells at any one time has been

Former guard Jim Goodman said
the pain of lhe riot lingers.
· ''There's still a lot of hard feelings
that it's going to take years to get rid
of," he said. "But the ones (guards)
who were here before appreciate all
the changes."

Beverly Wood was among the '

she said she was more interested in ·

she said.
