Researcher creates
new·fat substitute
PEORIA, Ill. (AP) - Dietetic
brownies, oatmeal cookies and pancake mixes may soon come with a
new type of fake fat.that its developer says will enhance flavor and texture without producing any 'unpleasant side effects.
A U.S. Agriculture Depanment
researcher has used fiber from the
hulls of oats, com and soybeans to
develop a fat substitute called Z-trim,
which he promises will not cause the
cramps and diarrhea sometimes associated with olestra. another zero-calorie fat substitute.
" This has been processed in such
a way as to be very comfortable to the
body," said George Inglett. "There's
no way that anybody would overdose
on this."
lnglen, who was to present his
product today at a meeting of the
American Chemical Society in Orlando, Fla.. explained it to reporters Friday and provided samples. Products
using Z-trim could be on store
she\ ves next year he said.
A Z-trim choc~\ate bar was sweet
and chewy, with no unusual aftertaste . On the other hand, a cheese
spread tasted like most low-fat
spreads: flat and a bit gluey.
Nutrition expens welcomed the
new fat substitute.
"I think it 's terrific to see this k~nd
of innovation," said Margo Wootan,
senior scientist for the Center for Science in the Public Interest , a private
association in Washington , D.C., that
has campaigned against olestra and
fatty restaurant food .
Wootan said she believes the fat
substitute is likely to perform as
promised.

Olesira is a synthetic chemical
made of sugar and vegetable oil that
looks like regular fat. But it has molecules so large and tightly packed !~~at
it passes through the human digestive
tract wi thout being taken in by the
body. Critics say it absorbs and takes
away some vitamins.
In Z-trim, in soluble natural fiber
is broken down so that it can be combined with -water to create a substanc;e ·
that mimics the smooth feel of fat
w1thout actually having any fat molecules.
Because Z-trim is made from
1ngredients that arc generally regarded as safe, Inglett said it will not
require exhaustive testing for Food
and Drug Administration approval.
The FDA so far tends to agree
although it has not seen the product,
said spokeswoman Judith Foulke.
The Agriculture Department
developed Z-trim in cooperation with
Mountain Lake Manufacturing of
Mountain Lake , Minn. The company
gets first crack at mlnketing Z-trim,
Ingl ett said.
Z-trim ts intended for use by food
manufacturers for products such as
cheese, chocolate and pancakes.
Unlike olestra. however, it cannot be
used in deep frying .
But don 't expect products containing the product to be free of calories or fat. Most fat substitutes are
combined with a little real fat to proVide a balance between nutrition and
navor, Inglett said.
Typical cheese spreads contain 70
or 80 calones per ounce and fat-free
spreads contain about 33 calories.
Inglett said his Z-trim spread contained only 22 calories.

TRIP TO THAILAND -- These three Meigs Countians, the Rev.
Krls Robinson, her husband, Jeff, of Middleport, and Jay McKelvey of Syracuse have returned trom _a visit to Thailand. They
·went especially to visit churches In partnership there.

After five days in Chiangrai which

Robinson. Chiangrai has a population
of more than two million.
Four days in Chiang Mai, including visiting more Christian institutions, seeing the mountains. water

Commenting on the trip, the minister said that the group was surprised
to see familiar restaurants , like
Me Donalds, Pizza Hut, Burger King,
and Kentucky Fried Chtcken everywhere. She also said that the Thais
were very hospitable and that they
learned '' God has worked wonderfully in the Buddist country where
Christians are less than one percent

:Democratic convention to hear
voices from its liberal tradition

By DONALD M. ROTHBERG
Associated Press Writer
CHICAGO- Seekjng a balance
between their liberal past and moderate present, Democrats hear today
from Hillary Rodham Clinton and
J.esse Jackson as they reach for the
political center with a platform that
ii. tough on crime and calls for a balanced budget.
· Voices from a liberal tmdition
s'pumed by President Clinton, Jackson and former New York Gov.
Mario Cuomo get their moment on
the podium. But the prime time slots
~o to Gov. Evan Bayh of Indiana, the
·mllre moderate convention keynoter,
an'il to Mrs. Clinton.
"I intend to speak about traditional values and what we can do to
r:enew them," Bayh said. He will talk
about the need "most importantly to
~reate a better world for our children," he added .
The convention speeches and platform define Clinton's Democratic
Pany and co-opt political ground held
by the Republicans over the past

decade and a hal f.
Often identified with the liberal
wing, Mrs. Clinton gave no advance
hint of her speech. But in a CNN
interview, she defended her husband's decision to sign a welfare bill
opposed by many convention delegates.
"This bill does a lot of good things
that need to be done. I don 't think it
was that flawed," she said.
Cuomo said he would make clear
his opposition to the welfare measure,
which puts a five-year lifetime cap on
cash assistance to the poor and
requires them to find jobs within two
years. Jackson called Clinton's decision to sign the bill "a very hunful
thing to do."
Making his way to the convention
city on a theme-a-day whistle stop
train trip, the president planned to
unveil a $2.5 billion literacy proposal in Wyandotte, Mich.
Included in the initiative is money for his AmeriCorps program so
national service workers can teach
more children to read.

CHICAGO - President Clinton held a hefty lead in the last two national polls conducted before the stan of the Democratic National Convention.
Clinton also maintained a 22-point advantage in a New York survey
released today. It suggested Republican presidential nominee Bob ·Dole
got no public-opinion "bo unce" in that generally Democratic, electoral
vote-rich state from hts pany 's convention earlier this month.
The national surveys, like others in the past week, find that whatever
convention bump Dole got has diminished somewhat.
Clinton and Vice President AI Gore were suppqrted by 49 percent, Dole
and Jack Kemp by 32 percent and Reform Party nominee Ross Perot by
S percent in a sampling of 775 registered voters Wednesday through Sun·
day for the PoliticsNow Internet site by ICR Survey Research Group.
(Sampling error margin: plus or minus 4 percentage points.)
That race was 47-34-9 in an Aug. 16-20 PoliticsNow poll that didn't
name Gore and Kemp. Dole had narrowed the margin to 8 points in an
Aug. 14-18 poll , down from 24 points in a PotiticsNow poll in early
August.
An ABC New~ nightly tracking poll Monday found no change from
results released Sunday - Clinton leading by 9 points among all registered voters but just 5 points among those who said they were certain to
vote in November.
In New York, with 33 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency, Clinton got 55 percent, Dole 33 percent and Perot 4 percent in a

By Ian Shoala1
President Clinton takes a lot of
heat for allegedly having only a nodding acquaintance with the ttuth. But
when he claimed that he smoked
marijuana in college, but dido 't
inhale, I believed him. He's way too
detail-oriented to be even a reformed
pothead. He has an auention span of
iron. His idea of a good time is reading a nice big stack of position
papers . He actually enjoys auending
meetings. Those who think he 's some
kind of decadent socialist must be on
something themselves. The dude's a
cube, man. He's practically a Republican.
But marijuana seems-to be making
a comeback as an issue in the '96
campaign. On the national level,
there was Clinton's press secretary,
Michael McCurry, admining: " I was
a kid in the 1970s. Did I smoke a joint
from time to time? Of course I did ."

Republican Susan Molinari (apparently known as "Mustang Sally"
back in her college days) confessed:
"Yes, close to 20 years ago, I did
experiment with marijuana less than
a handful of times. Looking back on
it, it was the wrong thing to do."
Meanwhile, here in San Francisco, the state anomey general 's office
closed down the Cannabis Buyers'
Club, an organization dedicated to
selling marijuana to ill persons with
chronic pain. This earned the allomey
general points as a tough can·do soldier in the war on drugs. (It didn' t
make him very popular in San Francisco, of course, but nobody there
voted for him anyway, especially not
AIDS-sufferers with a ganja joneJ.)
But then that's San Francisco. The
rest of the country. thinks we all just
sit around all day smoking spliffs and
sipping decaf lanes while entering
multicultural manifestoes in our jour-

nals. That's when we're not recruit·
ing young persons into our aberrant
lifestyle.
But every day, I hear more and
more people calling talk 'radio-- archconservatives I -· suggesting that mar·
ijuana be legalized. or at least decrim·
inalized. Man y hemp enthusiasts
claim not even to be interested in its
mind·altering qualities. but in its useful~ess as a miracle fiber. (Yeah,
right.)
Still , some things puzzle me .
Newt Gingrich, AI Gore and Sen.
Connie Mack. among others. have all
admitted to " experimenting" with
marijuana in their youth. They turned
out all right, didn'tthey ? Most sentient beings, it' s been shown , stop
pulling Kool Aid in the water pipe
sometime around the age of 25. So
what 's the problem' Why do politicians get so tweaked about doobie
abuse by today 's teens''

FIRST DA't OF SCHOOL ...

Susan Howell, a pollster at the Uni versity of New Orleans, said Dole did
" a masterful job of showing what the Republican leaders wanted the American people to see, not what the delegates wanted the American people to
see. They couldn't have done beller:"
Howell will watch this week for how Clinton answers Dole's proposed
IS percent tax cut.

I've been thinking a lot about
these people who give. Many of them
don't look like they have much to
spare themselves, and yet they are
willing to take money away from
their modest incomes and hand it
over to a stranger. They understand
that poor people aren't always
responsible for their hard luck. And
they would rather risk giving to
someone who is not wonhy than turning their back on someone who is.
These people and their generosity are all but forgotten by our nation's
leaders, who instead assume lhat all
Americans are greedy and selfish and
disgusted with the poor. Bob Dole
promises free money to anyone who
votes for him . Bill Clinton feels he
must dismantle the federal safety net
for the poor to preserve his olhce.
Indeed, even the Democrats who
voted against ending the federal welfare program did so quietly ·- with
the notable exception of Sen. Daniel
Patrick Moynihan of New York, one
of the few Washington legislators

who .isn't afraid to go against the
pack.
Right now, it's fashionable to
blame the poor for the nation 's ills. In
fact. the current debate has shifted so
far to the right that the idea that we
would simply help the poor because
it 's the rightthing to do barely ex ists
in the national dialogue . n •• notion
that a civilized nation must care fnr
its weakest has been almost completely discounted . It's every head of
household· for herself.
And the worst pan is, this s~apc­
goating is accompanied by a lot of
jabbering about morality. The Republican Party louis itself as the pany of
virtue, and President Clinton. in his
auempt to masquerade as a Rcpuhli·
can, tacitly accepts this . Similarly.
" religious Americans" or "people of
faith, " as Christian Coalition leader
Ralph Reed calls them , has come to
mean right-wing evangelicals.
But what is so virtuous about sup·
porting a tax cut? What is Christian

When you talk about the beer vote
you' re not just talking about Joe and
Jane Six-Pack- not just the Bubba
vote. Beer drinkers arc a wide cross·
section of Americans who, if pressed
into political service could be a for·
midable force on election day.
Already they have organized. Since
1987, the membership in Beer
Drinkers of America ha.• gone from
4,000 to more than 800,000 people.
Like the Moral Majority or the Reli·
gious Right, beer drinkers could
become a powerful political force if
either of the presidential candidates
comes out in favor of repealing the
1991 beer laJt .
Clinton is in the best position to do
so. Dole already has committed himself to a tax cut that slashes govern·
ment income by a whopping $S50
billion over six years. Doing this
without ballooning the national
deficit won 't be easy. Gelling him to
champion another laJt cut may be
harder.
Clinton, on the other hand, has yet
to roll out his election year tax cut
plan. That's cxpcc:ted to come soon.
Repealing the 1991 beer tax would be
a good idea. The price tag? About $2
billion a year in lost revenue to the
federal government That's peanuts in
a trillion-dollar budget. The benefits
to Clinton - or Dole - could far
outweigh the costs.
Most Americans think' deficit
redutlion is m!R imponant than tax

culling. They fear soaring innation
and higher interest rates more than
they pine for lower taxes. A beer tax
cut puts money hack into the pock·
cts of a large number of middle-c lass·
Americans without threatcnin2 to
make the deficit soar. In other words,
it's a low·cost. high-return proposi·
lion. A shift of I0 to 15 percent of

Commissioners consider

Here's a tax cut beer drinkers could love
By DeWAYNE WICKHAM
Gannett New1 Service
WASHINGTON - Bob Dole
wants to slash federal income tax by
15 percent.
Bill Clinton, in hi s new book "Between Hope and History" - says
he favors a targeted tax cut to help
parents pay the cost of sending their
children to college.
Dole's plan has the familiar ring of
" voodoo economics" and Clinton's
idea is hardly enough to send voters
stampeding to the poll s in suppon of
his re-election bid. Neilhcr of these
tax-cutting schemes is a road map to
the White House. If it's a yellow
brick road into the Oval Office
they're looking for, cutting the tax on
beer is a move in lhe righl direclion.
Back in 1991 , Congress raised the
federal tax on beer, to S 18 per barrel
lrom $9 - doubling tD'32 cents the
federal tax on a six-pack for all beer
drinkers. On the same day Congress
imposed a "luxury tax " on the pur·
chase price of big·ticket items that
exceeded $250,000 for airplanes;
$100,000 for boats; $30,000 for cars,
and S I0,000 for jewelry and furs .
Those who paid less for such luxuries
didn 't have to pay the 1,9 percent
levy.
Two years later, the luxury tax c111
the well-to-do was repealed, hut the
beer tax remains. That's nnl fair.
There arc an estimated 75 millitlll
beer drinkers in this country. Housewives and students. Corporate executives and sanitation workers. Stockbrokers and evangelists. In all,
enough people to determine the outcome of November's presidential
election.
Beer drinking· is more American

Every head of household for herself
By Sara Eckel
Beggars are a staple of the New
York City subway. No · one blinks
when a tattered soul walks down the
train 's corridor, palms outstretched.
In fact, it would be unusual to take a
20-minute subway ride in which you
were not asked for money.
Distinguishing the truly needy
from the hustlers is not easy. You can
see that some are disabled or mentally ill . You can note that some are
trying to provide compensation for
the dimes and quaners they seek by
singing songs or telling jokes. And
you can debate the merits of some of
the eloquent pleas for help. But in the
end, you just don 't know.
But here is the remarkable thing:
People give.
Not everyone, and certainly not
always. But almost every subway car
has a few passengers who dig into
their pockets and put quancrs into
those palms and paper cups. New
Yorkers are accustomed to poveny,
but they are not inured to it.

Political conventions
are, too, important

By CHUCK RAASCH
I
. GNS Political Writer
'
CHICAGO - If political convemions have become lumbering dinosaurs,
as the critics say, why are the Democrats going so far this week to bury memories of their last, violel'll:e-plagued meeting here in 1968?
,
"Are you kidding?" Democratic National co-chair Don f7owler said when
asked whether there would be much said about '68 from the United Center
· podium this week. " Do I look like I have stupid (written) all over my head? "
Unrepentant liberal Gene McCarthy, whose 1968 anti -Vietnam War presidential candidacy helped force fellow Democrat Lyndon Johnson from the
White House, says avoiding memories of the riot·torn '68 convention here
is like "coming back to the scene of a crime and covering up the evidence."
Which is a clever way of saying that conventions do have meaning, often
by what is buried as much as by what is exposed.
.
Technology and presidential primaries largely have turned conventtons
into scripted, high-tech pep rallies.
But politics still is a pursuit of energy and direction, of benchmarks and
: rituals. And the convention handlers this year have understood thts beuer
than those who have come to cover them .
· Despite diminishing television viewership, despite extraordinary effons
to stop conflict from breaking out, despite network stars hke Ted Koppel
going home complaining of no news, both the Republican and De':"ocrauc
conventions this year will have raised and answered a lot of questions.
None the least of which here is how much the Democratic Pany compares with its 1968 incarnation, when anti-war demonstrators and Chicago
police clashed:
1bc Democrats are now headed by Bill Clinton, who came of age as a
McOovemite liberal but who has spent a good deal of his time as president
living down the Democrats' government program legacies of the 1960s ..
Clinton has done best when he governs as a new Democrat, a label wnh
an implicit rejection of Democrats, circa '68. If Huben Humphrey had
claimed the '68 nomination here declaring that the era of big government
: is over, as Clinton did in his Slate ofthe Union speech this year. "the Hump"
; may ~~!ave had a riot inside the convention hall I? rival the .ones outside.
. Since his pany's devaslating loss of Congress tn 1994, Clinton has moved
· rightward . Republicans have ponrayed that as the meanderings of a centerless
· politician. But moderate AI From, head Qfthe Democratic Leadership Coun: cil, has praised Clinton for defying his pany·s-long-held vtews on tssues hke
. welfare reform and fore1gn trade.
"In each case, he went against the old onhodoxy of this pany," From
· said.
Yet, Democrats today still have many strong strands of the old pany onh~
·doxy. Labor is reasserting itself, spending millions in advenising to defeat
· Republican House members. Liberal activists still control much of the par·
: ty apparatus. Minorities, especially blacks, still arc a reliable Democratic
:voting bloc. And many Democrats still believe in a big, benevolent gov·
· crnment.
· Roger Hickey, a director of the Campaign for America's Future, a recent: ly organized collection of liberals and progressives. estimates that 60 per. cent to 70 percent of the delegates here " would be considered progressive
or liberal, in that they want the government to solve economic problems and
they don't want the Democrats to sound like warmed-over Republicans."
Some . including Hickey, come to Chicago still upset that Clinton wiped
out60 years of Democratic ideology by signing a Republican welfare reform
bill that takes away federal guarantees to the poor and pushes the responsibility to states. The bill cleaved the Democratic Pany : 98 House Democrats voted for it, 98 against it. Clinton cannot afford these two wings going
after each other this week .
In some ways, Clinton is in the same situation his Republican foe , Bob
Dole, faced in San Diego.
Clinton wants to be re-elected as a president decidedly less liberal than
many of the delegates who will nominate him .
In San Diego, Dole tried to ponray himself a centrist in a convention of

HOUS1DN (AP)- A fan fell out
of the stands, and the Houston Astros
dropped within a half-game of falling .
out of first place in the NL Central.
Willie McGee went 3-for-4 Monday night and hit a two-run homer
that inspired the St. Louis Cardinals
to a 3-2 victory and a series split with
the Houston Astros.
In other games, Colorado beat
Cincinnati 9-5 in a game called after
seven innings because of rain, and
San Francisco edged Philadelphia 10.
McGee also doubled in the second
and beat out a ground ball for a hit in
the eighth. As the call was being
argued, a fan fell out of the stands in
right field, delaying the game for .
about 10 minutes.
Center fielder Brian Hunter and
right fielder Derek Bell ran over to
assist the fan.
"I went overthere and asked him
if he was all right," Bell said. "He
was kind elf slurring his words and he
said 'somebody pushed me."'
Hunter said the fan, George

Shaver, appeared semi-conscious,,
when he approached him.
"By the time I got there, he
seemed to know what planet he was
on," Hunter said.
Shaver was taken off the field on
a stretcher and went to the emergency
room at Hennann Hospital, where he
did not seem to have any serious
injuries.
Doctors wanted to keep him for
funher tests, but he ignored their
advice and walked out with a couple
of friends.
·:He didn't appear to have any
obvtous defonnities," hospital
administrator Lee Farrell said. "We
didn't see any great distress."
The damage had already been
done to the Astros, who lost a chance
to go up 2 1/2 games on the secondplace Catrdinals.
Monday's game was the only one
McGee played in the four-game
senes, but he made his presence felt
and may have changed his mind
about retiring at season's end.
"We'll have to wait and see how

'
the rest of the year goes, how I feel
at the end of the season and how the
club feels," McGee said. "There's a
lot of things involved. I have to talk
it over with my family and see
what's out there."
Andy Benes (14-9) overcame early wildness and pitched seven strong
innings, striking out I0. Dennis Eckersley worked the ninth for his 23rd
save.
"Andy pitched well but it was
Willie who got us going," LaRussa
said.
. With the score 2-2, Royce Clayton
smgled home Mike Gallego with the
go-ahead run in the seventh inning.
Mike Hampton (10.9) walked Gallego, who was sacrificed to second
prior to Clayton's hit.
Craig Biggio's 15th home run put
Houston ahead 1-0 in the first inning,
and the Astros went on to load the
bases on a walk to Jeff Bagwell, a
double by Derek Bell and a walk to
Derrick May.
But Benes escaped without allowing another run, getting Bill Spiers on

a force play at the plate and retiring
Orlando Miller on a liner that Qayton leaped to catch at shortstop.
"We just played four very good
games between two good teams that
carne into an important series and
played hard," Astros manager Terry
Collins said. "We need to keep doing
that for the next 30 games."
The Cardinals were 2-5 on their
road trip.
Giaats 1, Phillies 0
William VanLandingham pitched
two-hit ball for eight innings, retiring
17 straight batters during one stretch
at 3Com Pa:k.
VanLandingham (8-13) struck out
four and walked two. Jim Poole got
one out in the ninth and Rod Beck
closed for his 29th save.
Cun Schilling (6-7) struck out
seven, including seven in a row early in the game, in seven innings. Glenallen Hill hit an RBI single in the
Iirst for the lone run.

Mets fire Green; Valentine assumes NY duties
By BEN WALKER
AP Baeeball Writer
. NEW YORK- Dallas Green was
sitting in the New York Mets dugout
at Dodger Stadium during the weekend, talkiog about how times had
changed in baseball.
He wulfrom the old school, he
freely admitted, a blunt speaker who
wasn't afraid to raise his voice to bully people to be their best. Nowadays,
he suggested, there was a different
attitude, from a_ touchy-feely
approach to dealing with players to
an attention on things besides winning in the front office.
"I think I'm becoming a
dinosaur," he said.
His statement proved prophetic.
Green, at 62 the oldest manager in
the National League, was fired Monday by the Mets, who said the slow
progress of their young players was
a major reason for their 59· 72 record.
New York is [ourth in the NL East,
23 games behind first-place Atlanta,
and 12 games behind Montreal for
the wild-card slot.
The Mets promoted Bobby Valentine from Triple·A Norfolk to replace
Green. Valentine, 46, managed the
Texas Rangers for more than seven
years, and also played and coached
for the Mets.
Also dismissed were pitching
coach Greg Pavlick and bench coach
Bobby Wine, a longtime friend of
Green. Bob Apodaca, Norfolk's
pitching coach, was promoted to
take Pavlick's spot, and pan-time
coach Rafael Landestoy was made
full-time.
"Our hope with this change is that
the younger players can begin to
blossom more," Mets general manager Joe Mcilvaine said.
Coming off a 69-75 season, the
~ets _began this season with high

Bowling results

hopes. But while the veterans did
well, panicularly Todd Hundley and
newcomers Bernard Gilkey and
Lance Johnson, the kids did not produce as well.
"I was expecting in the second
half that our younger players would
come to the forefront That didn't
happen," Mcilvaine said. "I was
concerned we were beginning to
lose some of the young players."
Injuries and inconsistency, especially to the highly touted trio of
young pitcher.; Bill Pulsipher, Jason
lsringhauscn and Paul Wilson, were
prime reasons for the poor mark.
Rookie shonstop Rey Ordonez, while
flashy at times, has often had problems with routine plays.
Pulsipher has been sidelined the
entire season because of elbow trOU·
ble. Last week, in the midst of a dismal 2-7 West Coast trip, Green
lashed out at Wilson, a former No. 1
draft pick, and Isringhausen, 9-2 as a
rookie last year. The 23-year-old
pitchers are a combined 9-23.
"These guys really don't belong in
the big leagues," Green said. "It
sounds very harsh and very negative,
but what have they done to set
here?"
Mcilvaine, who said he made the
decision to dismiss Green in the middle of last week, said he didn't like

"It was a factor," Mcilvaine said.
"I wasn't happy with that comment."

"That's a comment you should
make behind closed doors," he said.
"When you're trying to develop
players, a big pan of that is building
confidence. I'm not sure how much
thai builds their confidence when you
Crt(ICIZe them like that."
The Mets had to inform Green by
Sept. 15 whether they intended !o
bring him back next year, according
to his contract.
Mcilvaine said he spoke with
Green for about I 0 minutes Monday
morning to tell him of the decision.
The Mets were off Monday and
Valentine will take over for his first
game Tuesday night at home against
San Diego.
"I have very mixed emotions, as
you might imagine," said Valentine,
hired through the 1997 season. "I
have a great deal or elation. But I
know the emptiness."
Mcilvaine praisea Valentine and
Apodaca as the two best teachers in
the Mets organization, adding he
hoped they'd bring "a fresh energetic, positive type of approach."
The Mets are the fourth team to
change managers this season. Bill

_Nagy wins first game
'in a month for Indians
DETROIT (AP)- Charles Nagy
won his first game in more than a
:month, yet his hardest throw of the
night was nowhere near home plate.
Nagy pitched a three-hitter and
Jim Thome hit a tiebreaking bomer in
the ninth inning, giving the Cleveland
Indians a 2-1 win over the Detroit
,Tigers.
, Nagy (13-4) struck out seven and
:walked two in his first victory since
July 25.
, He also staned the defensive play
,of the game after Melvin Nieves led
.off the eighth with Detroit's last hit.
Andujar Cedeno bunted in front of
themoundtoNagy,whothrewabul' let to shonstop Omar Vizquel that
.nipped pinch-runner K.imera Banee
at second. Vizquel then wheeled .a
• relay that doubled up Cedeno at first.
"How we turned that double play,
I'll never know," Nagy said. "I didn't really have a good grip on the ball,
so I tried to throw it as hard as I
could./~ " ·&lt;&gt; • " " ·, i&gt; 1
·"' ~·' '
The play preserved a 1-1 tie,
which Thome broke with his one-out
homer in the ninth.
"I don't think you ' ll see a better
· double play in a more stressful situ·ation," Indians manager Mike Hargrove said. "And they turned it with
·two fast runners."
Nagy won a duel with Detroit's
·Felipe Lira, who allowed just four
. hits. The last was Thome's 29th
homer.
The Tigers' only run came on
·Travis Fryman's 20th homer.
"It was a weird night," Nagy said.
"He threw strikes and I threw strikes,
and when you do that people put the
' ball in play and you rely on your
defense.

"I don't think he should have to
pay for it. I wouldn't feel ript. He
always was a favorite of mine' JIOW·

pared to give it to Hank at this point,
either."
"To me, that ball is just as impor·
tant as the one from number 71
Aaron wrote in his book, "because
it's the one that established the
record. The record is 755. not 715."
Arndt heanily agrees, and that's
why he thinks the ball is worth rnc:JR:
than he's been offered.
Aaron said that because Arndt
took the ball home with him that
night, nobody else but Arndt will ever
know for sure if he has the genuine
ball.
"I guess there will always be
doubt. He could have dropped it,
swapped it, sold it," Aaron said. "But
I know he got the ball that night, so
I've tried many times to get it back.
"I know I have the balls from 714
and 715," Aaron added . "I'd like to
get that last one, too."

Harry Gill, the head groundskeepcr. said he couldn't keep the ball. The
Brewen offered Arndt a photo of him
returning it to Aaron, a different ball
autographed by Aaron and one of
Aaron's bats.
Arndt said he wanted to think
about it overnight, and he left with·
out returning the ball. He was fired
the next day.
"They said I'd been tenninated
for taking Brewers property," Arndt
said.·
The club deducted $5 from his last
paycheck.
Aaron was injured soon after that,
and baseball's career home run king
retired without trotting the bases
again.
"When he kept it, I didn't realize
that was going to be my last homer,"
Aaron said. "I was collecting all my
homers that year and 1 really wanted
to get it back from him that night. But
he wouldn't give it to me ."
When the season ended, Aaron
returned to Atlanta.
The following spring, Arndt, who
grew up in Madison and counted
Aaron as his childhood hero, moved

keep the ball. He took Brewers property.
"Legally, I think it belongs to me.
I think he's trying to hold me
hostage," added Aaron, who will visit Milwaukee on Friday for a luncheon celebrating - albeit a month
late - the 20th anniversary of his
755th and final home run.
Arndt, who works for a furniture
company and as a groundskeeper for
the Albuquerque Dukes baseball
team, said he hopes somebody will
buy the ball one day and give it to
Aaron or donate it the Hall of Fame.
But he quickly adds: ''I'm not sure
I want to pan with it right now."
And Arndt has two caveats for
anybody who asks about the ball.
"One, tell people that the ball is in
a safe deposit box at the bank. My
wife arid I don't want a man with a
gun coming to the back door at 2
a.m.," he said. "And, two, don 't say
anything derogatory about Hank
Aaron."
It's that duality that has confounded Aaron over the years.
"I don't know what to think anymore," Aaron said. "I've tried, com·
panics have tried, representatives
have tried to get it back many times.
That ball means the world to me, sure
it does."

the left-field foul pole at County Stadium and open the gate for a cart that

MILWAUKEE -The man who
has Hank Aaron's final home run ball
is tom between doing the right thing
and getting the right price.

"I'd love to get it, but I've pretty
much given up on it," Aaron said.
"What's he going to do, keep it
another 40 years and when I die, say,
'Oh, this belonged to Hank'?"
Arndt was fired from his part-tilne
job on the grounds crew 20 years aso
for taking the ball home instead of
returning it to the Milwaukee Brew·
ers, the team Aaron ended his career
with after playing for the Milwaukee
and Atlanta Braves.
Since then, Arndt has rejected
every attempt to buy the prized ball,
including proposals from Aaron, who
is bitter that an item of such great personal and historical significance sits
in Arndt's safe deposit box in Albuquerque, N.M.

Dear Readers: I am on vacation,

favorite columns that you may have
missed the first time around . I hope
you enjoy them. -- Ann Landers
Dear Ann Landers: You have
printed several letters over the last
few years 10 the Other Woman. How
about one 10 the Other Man? Here it
is:
Hello there, sucker.

You. fell in ~ove· with my wife,
wh1ch IS OK With me. I can understand how it happened because 29
years ago I fell in love with her, too.
Here are a few things you ought to
know if your intentions are serious:
'That smile of hen that you think
is so wonderful cost me $3,000 plus
$75 every two months for maintenance. The upkeep on - her hair is
$300 a month . If she wants to
change the color, add another $75.
I'm sure you enjoy dancing with her,
but be prepared for bills from her
chiropractor ($35 a visit, twice a
month), and her podiatrist costs
about the same.
She's a great little dresser, isn't
she? Well , the bills from the shops
run about $1,500 a month. This

doesn't include shoes. (She and
Imelda Marcos have a lot in common.)
She complained because I was
never home, and she had a right to.
But I was working two jobs si~ days
a week to keep her in the style to
which she had become accustomed.
I' m not bitter, although I did get
used to her after 29 years. Actually, I
owe you a lot. When she dumped
me, I quit my second job, and life is
a lot easier.
One more thing: About that trip
you two took to watch the whales off
Martha's Vineyard -- I wrote the
credit card company and told them
I'm not paying for it because I wasn't there. -- Color Me Gone in Hackensack

Dear Hack: Feel better after
unburdening yourself7 I hope so.
Dear Ann Landers: This letter is
from the Olher Man. I am addressing my remarks to the husband of
the woman I love. The relationship 1
enjoy with your wife is the most precious thing in my life. She is a gem.
But somehow you never noticed.
How long did you think you could
ignore her before she felt an emptiness in her life and a need to do
something about it'

" It sort of woke me up to the

go to my uncle's farm (in Pennsylvania) and fool around with ants.
We'd put 'em in a Mason jar with a
little din and watch 'em cavan.
"I thought, ·why not make an

tions of them. The pressure canner is
also being recommended for tomatoes , because the newer varieties are
becoming lower in acid. Low-acid :
foods allow the growth of bacteria
thill can cause the deadly food borne '
illness known as botulism.
,
Pressure canners should be vent- 1
ed for ten minutes before pressuriz- ;
ing. This removes the air that can :,
interfere with a true pressure reading. :.
Process foods for the correct •
amount of time and pressure. If ~
unsure, contact the Extension office.
After processing, cool j!lf$ at room
temperature on several layers of towels 12-24 hours. Do not retighten lids.
This could break the seal.
A good way to test the seal is t~
press the middle of the lid with your
finger. If the lid comes up after:;
removing your finger, the lid is not

Here it is canning season again.
To help ensure the best results, here
are some important things to remember.
Preserve only the freshest foods.
The slogan "Two hours from garden
to jar" is good to follow. This will
help minimize bacterial growth that
can lead to food spoilage.
Make sure all equipment is working properly. The Extension office
tests pressure canner lids on Wednesday mornings. Call 9926696 to make
an appointment to have yours tested.
It is recommended that this be done
each year.
Use clean, sterilized glass canning
jars that are free of nicks and chips.
Any small crack will allow air in,
which would prevent a vacuum seal
from occurring. Lids can only be
used once, because the seal would be
broken upon opening.
After filling jars, run a knife
around the inside to remove air bubbles. Leave the correct amounl of
headspace. Wipe jar top with a clean
wet cloth to remove any particles of
food that could prevent the jar from
sealing.
Use the right canner to process
foods. A boiling water bath is used
when preserving high-acid foods,
such as fruits, jellies, and pickles. The
acid level in these foods are high
enough to prevent bacterial growth.
Only a pressure canner should be
used to process low-acid foods, such
as vegetables, meats, and combina·

The Cincinnati Enquirer
From "Questions and Answers about Ants" by Millicent E. Scisam ($3.95: Uncle Milton Industries):
QUESTION: What do ants eat?
ANSWER: Ants will eat almost anything as long as it is juicy.
When they cat solid food, the food goes into a special place in the
mouth, where the juice is squeezed out of it. The ant spits out the
solid pans and swallows the juice.
Q: When one ant finds some food, why do so many other ants
come running?
A: The ant that finds food gets excited . On the way back to the
nest. the ant Jays a trail of a special chemical. The chemical comes
out of a tube at lhe back end of' the ant's body.
Q: When you watch ants, you see that their antennae are
always moving. Why?
A: The antennae have tiny organs of touch and smell on them. This
makes il poss ible for an ant to find out the shape of something as .well
as iiS smell .
Q: How do the ants of a colony keep in touch with each other?
A: They pass food from mouth to mouth. They clean each other's
bodies. They touch each other with their antennae. They smell each
other.

Time out for tips ..

For 40 years, the ants have
been
down on the farm
.
By JOHN JOHNSTON
The Cincinnati Enquirer
It 's a typical day down on the
farm lots of heavy lifting, trudging
up and down hills, plowing through
rough terrain . All work and no play
for several dozen workers and not a
slacker in sight.
Progress is steady, but slow.
"They won't get done," Kuani
Tillman says, surveying the scene
with Sarafina Fumi-Fiamawle, lshmella Spears and Greg Smith, all
kindergartners at Crest Hills Year
Round School in Roselawn, Ohio.
"11'11 be a lo·o-ong time before
they get done. A Jo-o-o-ong time. "
The workers, who happen ·to be
ants, pay no altention. They have
their antennae to the grindstone, so
to speak, and are doing what ants in
an Ant Farm do: excavating a maze
of tunnels, one grain of sand at a
time.
"So they can make a home,"
Kuani says.
Teacher Kelly Pugh put the Ant
Farm in her classroom to help her
studeniS lellrn about habitaiS. Educational benefits aside, watching
the goings-on through the farm 's
clear plastic walls is most definitely "cool," Kuani says.
Plenty of other people agree,
apparently. How else to explain the
enduring success of Uncle Milton 's
Ant Farm?
lnvenied 40 years ago by Milton
Levine (it rhymes with divine), the
Ant Farm long ago achieved classic
toy status. About 20 million have
been sold by Uncle Milton Industries, and more than a billion ants
have been shipped oul separately in
little vials - but only on Mondays,
so they won 'I have to spend a
weekend in a post office.
Last year was the best ever for
Ant Fann sales, though the privately owned company won't say
exactly how many were sold.
"Usually if a novelty item lasts
two seasons, it 's great," says
Levine, who says everyone calls
him Uncle Milton. "That's all I
thought this would be good for.

There 1s a large tree of knowledge
that needs to be absorbed if one is to
play bndge well Each ring m the
trunk is like another techntque to be
mastered And the whorls are the
plays that go agamst the gram. making
them hard to find at the table How
would you s1ze up th1s four-heart contract after West has led a diamond?
North's four diamonds was a splin
ter bid showmg game values m heart.s
with a singleton or void in diamonds
Thi' is a much more useful interpreta
twn for the b1d than as natural and
pre empt1ve
GIVen North ' s response, West's
choice of lead leafs Isic! a lot to be de·
strcd A dub start would dl'feat the l'{)ll
tract. but a spade attark IS also logical
Declarer rmmcd10tely played a
trump, but Eil s t d1dn t err He
switched lu the ace and qu een of
clubs then he branched out w1th the
spade jack Havmg no way to avmd los
mg a tnck LoWest 's club kmg. declarer conceded one down
"With only etP.ht htgh card pomts,
weren't you a btl thm for your splinter
bid'" asked South
"I don 'I thmk so. as I had only seven
losers But .ven 1f I bid four hearts,
the final contract 1s the same And you
could have made 11 when West didn't
lead a club . You must Immediately
cash lhe spade k1ng. overtake !he
spade queen with dummy's ar• and
ruff the spade eight in your hand Th•n
ex1t With a tn1mp "
"Oh, yes." said South "I see what
you mean After taking his two club
tricks, East is beeched ls1cl Whether
he returns a spade or a diamond, I ruff
in hand and discard dummy's club loser What a 'ash I !l'ade of ill"

BY HOWARD WILKINSON
. The Cincinnati Enquirer
CHICAGO - If winning Ohio's 21
electoral votes for Bill Clinton this
fall is the No. I priority for Ohio ,
Democrats, winning back control of
Ohio's congressional delegation can't
be far behind.
Two years ago, after holding a
majority in the 19-member Ohio delegation to the U.S. House since
1982, Ohio Democrats got caught in
the tidal wave that gave Republicans
control of the House for the first time
in 40 years.
Four Democratic incumbents lost
their seats, including David Mann in
Hamilton County's Ist District and
Ted Strickland in southern Ohio's 6th
District Before the 1994 election, the
Democrats held a slight lead of 10
seats to nine for the Republicans.
When the dust settled, the Republi-

tol Hill security officer who cried
when Dole retired from the Senate
last spring.
.
Mrs. Clinton chose a more bustness-like, forward-looking speech
talking about her busband's visions
about health care, family leave, adoption, and flexible working hours themes TV viewers have heard before
in 'tlie past four years.
Mrs. Clinton also stood u~ to
Dole, who had declared m San D1,9go
that it took a family - not a village
-to-raise a child. It was a slap at
Mrs. Clinton's book about raising
children, "it Takes a Village."
"'To mise a happy, healthy, and
hopeful chtld, tt takes a famtly, she
satd, addtng that tl also takes teachers, clergy, busmess people and community leaders.
'"It takes all of us . Yes, it takes a
village - and it takes a president,"
she said. "It takes a president who
believes not only in the potential of
his own child, but in all children .
Who believes not only in the strength
of his own family, but of the Ameri can family ... It takes Bill Clinton."
Her remarks ran five minutes
longer than scheduled, which contributed to the keynote speech by
Indiana Gov. Evan Bayh being
delayed until II p.m. EDT That
forced the Big Three commercial networks to stretch live convention coverage to 11 :15.
But Democrats got what they
wanted. Earlier in the day. they
rearranged the convention schedule.

"Ted's been on the train with the
president and is running a great campaign," Mr. Brown said. "Cremeans
is just not deft enough or able enough
to answer the arguments when Ted
hits him for supporting the radical
agenda of the Rcpubicans in Congress.
Mr. Brown said that in Cincinnati
the Democrats have a chance of
knocking off U.S. Rep Steve Chabot.
the former Cincinnati councilman
and county commissioner, who
defeated Mr. Mann two years ago. He
says that even though Democratic
challenger Mark Longnbaugh is not
nearly as well known in his district as
Mr. Strickland is in his.
"That's going to be a good race
for us because Steve has been way to
the right of even (House Speaker
Newt) Gingrich on a lot of issues ,"
Mr. Brown said . " People in Cine in-

nati like Steve; he 's a ltkeahle guy,
but I don't think they're going to like
what he has voted for in one term in
Congress."
Mr. Brown said he also is convinced that former Cleveland mayor
Dennis Kucinich. now a state senator,
will oust two-term congressman Martin Hoke in Cleveland.
"That one's a no-bratner," said
Mr. Brown. "We wln."
Mr. Brown, who lost the secretary
of state job to Cincinnatian Bob Taft
in 1990, said 1996 should be a 80od

One change is that the Title I readmg program has been moved into a

team teaching approach .
Another tcnc( of the program is
the mclusion of special education stu-

along with the Title I teachers and
speciul education teachers will be
team teachtng -- to cover all academic areas, according to Haplonstall.
To address parents' concerns that
classroom material would be made
less challenging to allow special
education students to do well. Haptonstall and other teachers said the
curriculum would be unchanged and
that special education students would

It is hoped that tncluding spcetal
education students into regular da'5rooms will help reduce some of the
stigma attached to being labeled as a
special education student, Haptonstall

CHICAGO - First lady Hillary
Rodham Clinton didn't dazzle delegates by strolling among them like a
TV talk show host, as Elizabeth Dole
did two weeks ago at the Republican
convention.
But neither did she look like a
scare~· deer caught in the headlights,
as she did Monday night on primetime TV when she welcomed
Democrat~ to the convention from outside the United Center.
Mrs. Clinton, dressed in a light
blue suit, delivered a flawless tradi tional speech Tuesday night from the
podium. She appeared comfortable
addressing the assembly, although
occasionally TV viewers caught a
peek at her death-grip at the lectern
-which delegates could not see.
Unlike Mrs . Dole. who repeatedly called her husband "Bob Dole,"
Mrs. Clinton referred to her husband
in a much more casual manner.
Usually, she called hin simply
"Bill." Several times she referred to
him as "my husband" or "the president." Only once, in her dramatic climax, did she call him by his first and
last name.
What the women said was as different as how they said it. The only
similarity was the length of their
speeches: 20 minutes each.
Mrs. Dole, in a ""This Is Your
Life" style, chose to tell the national
TV audience about incidents in her
husband's past they didn' t know. She
introduced the doctor who helped
repair his shattered shoulder after
World War II; a q·uadriplegic whom
he befriended in 1983; and the Capi-•

EPA, OSHA probe fire _
BELPRE (AP) - The damage
from a fire and explosion at the Shell
Chemical Co. plant is expected to
take about a month to repair.
Meanwhile, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency and the
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration are looking into Sunday's fire, officials said Tuesday.
An EPA inspector will visit the
plant within a week, spokeswoman
Heather Van Deest said ..
She said the inspection was routine and will focus on determining the
cause of the fire and whether there

was any environmental impact from
the chemicals involved.
No one was hurt in the fire, which
broke out around 3:15a.m. It did nol
disrupt the work schedules of the
plant's 500 employees,' company
officials said.
The fire , in a dryer used for the
Kraton polymers that the Houstonbased company makes, resulted in
more than $100,000 damage, company spokesman Michael White said
Tuesday.
The material is used in food packa~ing, roofing materials. toys, sporting goods, adhesives and lubricants.
