The pfOposal, which will be introduced as a bouse

Taylor said the area's-rural nalure plays a role in his
lack of concern about the dangers of such a proposal.
"I really don't think that it will affect us very
much,"'he said. "For a high-population, high-density

conducts a background check. A person with a clean

Only persons with felony convictions. who are

lurned .down for a permit. Sheriffs would not have
veto power over applications.
"No justification is required to apply for or receive

a concealed firearm permit," the proposal says.
Ohio has not issued CCW permits for about 25
years, Taylor said. Before, the sheriff could give
permission to citizens that proved they needed to
carry protection because of security purposes or because their lives were in danger.
Taylor said he does not foresee the measure running into any serious opposition.

Republicans are calling welfare reform,' ' House Minority
Leader Dick Gephardt, D-Mo. , said just after the vote.
The measure makes fundamental changes in a web of
social programs dating to the Great Depression.
t cancels the federal government's promise to provide
ool lunches, cash assistance, fosler care support and
child care to the country's neediest women and children;
cuts families off welfare after five years; and requires ablebodied food stamp recipients to work.
There are no guarantees. however, that single mothers
on welfare will be given training, education, child care or
a job as they move from dependency to the work force .
Those details are left to the states.

GALLIPOLIS L Construction is expected to st.art this
spring on a new headquarters for the State Highway Patrol's
Gallia-Meigs Post.
'.
Wesam Construction, Pomeroy, received the general con'
tract for the job, totaling $884,000, said Lt. Dan Gibson, the
local post commander. Mechanical work contracts will be
issued soon so a groundbreakingcan be held as early as May,
he added.
The one-story, three-section building will be erected just
east of the current post location at the GaJlia County Ohio
Department ofTransportatiOIJ garage on Jac~son Pike .
_The building's main section will provide space for alf of
the patrol's operations, including dispatching and record- _
keeping, and will be flanked by ~ conference room and a
three-bay garage for cruisers, Gibson said. The exterior will
offer 52 parking spaces forthe patrol's use and by the. public,
and a helicopter landing pad.
The job has a 335-day construction schedule and when
finished will provide necessary space for the post's daily
functions, Gibson said.
The Gallipolis post has been based at the ODOT. garage
since December 1955 and is now the last patrol unit to share
space with the state highway agency , Gibson said.
The current post is housed ill four rooms on two floors of
the garage's offices. Aside from the commander, the staff
currently includes four sergeants, nine troopers, four dispatchers, a secretary and a maintenance employee .
"We don't have adequate room for our -offices," Gibson
observed. "Most of our troopers do their work right at the
front desk.':
By comparison, the new post will include a lobby, dispatching area, offices, a locker room, a room for troopers'
work and a separate space for breath alcohol testing. The
garage will also be a new feature for Gallipolis since the
post's cruisers are currently parked outside.

GALLIP.OLIS - Employees of the Gallia County Emergency Medical
Servlce will vote April 6 whether to organize under the union banner of the
United Mine Workelli of America:
Some of those rallying for unionization say they're not doing it .to improve
their owq situation, but to give county residents the service they deserve.
"We're more concerned about the taxpayers who believe when they pick up
a phone that we'll be there," one EMS employee said.
_
Non-emergency transports, such as taking a nursing home patient to a
doctor's appointment at the hospital, are tying up ambulances and leaving the
county in a potentially dangerous situation, three EMS employees. told a
'
Times-Sentinel reporter Wednesday.
The employees asked not to be idenlified, fearing retribution from manage'.
_ment if the organization vote fails.
The employees said that sometimes all six of the EMS's ambulances are
being used simultaneously for transports. If an emergency OCCU!li, the EMS
asks Point Pleasant, W.Va.; or Meigs County for assistance.
. "We depend on other services to support us because we 're toting ta'telli to
Columbus," one man said. . ·
EMS Direcior Bob Bailey said Thursday.the service tries to keep two trucks
at the station at all times.
"But that can change," he said. "We just had some times with multiple
\ emergencies that happen. But there's no way you can plan for that."
- ~ Bailey said mutual aid agreements with other ambulapce services in the area
keep the county covered in the event of more demand than supply. ·
The county also has first responders, medical personnel who arrive on tbe
scene and stabilize a jl3tient until the ambulance arrives.
The union suppbrtelli said that is nor enough, thatthecounty_is_puttil)g itself

COLUMBUS (AP) 7 A Franklin CQunty Common Pleas jury
on Saturday fOUDd a pnson inmate guilty 00 six of seven counts
related to a ~son rio~ including the agglllvated murders of a guard
and another mmale.
Jason Robb, _27, ol Dayton, was ccnvieled in the deaths.of guard
Robert Vallandingham, 40, and inmate David Sommc:n. He cculd
be sentenced to death.
- -He was-found innocent of-kidnapping-s~ ·.
,
Prosecula's said Robb was one of several leaders during the 11·
day siege at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility who ordered
Vallandingham's slaying. Eight other inmates died during lhe riot in
Apri11993.
Defense attorney Made DeVan did not make a closing argument.
He said it was Rohb's decision.
In his opening statement, DeVan said Robb stepped forward to
help negotiate a peaceful end to the siege.
Four days into the riOt, Robb and George Skatzes of the Aryan
BrotheriJood gang; Anthony Lavelle. leader of tbe Black Gangster
· Disciples; and Muslim gang leader Siddique Hasan, formerly
known as Carlos Sanders; held a meeting and agreed by silent vote
tolcillaguard,prosecutorssaid.
·
Stead said tbe riot leaders decided later that Sommers bad to be
killed because be bad a reputation as an informant and bad seen too ·
much.
·
Inmates testified Robb watched as Sotruners was stabbed.
In another riot-related case, inmate Tyree Parker pleaded guilty
Friday in Franklin County Common Pleas Court to assaulting guard
Michael Stump and attempting to kidnap guard Conrad Nagel.
Judge Evereu Burton of Scioto County sentenced Parker to 5-1/2
to 15 years, to be served concurrently with his 1992 sentence of
three to 15 years for abduction and felonious assault in Montgomery
County.
·
Prosecutor Claude Crowe said Parker was among a group of
inmates who chased and caught Nagel, who was held captive about
six hours.

wASHINOTON - It's a contagious political issue among the voters,
· but.term limits may not be catcbing in Congress. Put lhe idea on lhe ballot
and it wins, usually overwhelmingly. But gaining two-thirds votes in
Congress to limit tenure in Congress is something else.
·
House Republican leaders will aim for that elusive goal Monday and
· Tuesday, but they're not optimislic. "I don't know that it will pass," said
House Spea!c:er Newt Gingrich. "But it will be a much better vote !ban I
thought it would be."
· ·
·
.
. Better, or worse, depends on perspective. There ~ persuasive argu·
ments both for and against, and party lines waver on this one. Rep. Henry
Hyde, whose House Judiciary Committee dealt with the measure, always
bas opposc:d it, saying that true term limits should be settled at the_polls.
Advoeates counter that incmnbeocy bas become its own reward, wtth the
advantages of office often ins~untatile for a challenger. ·
.
Even in a turnaround elecuon, the one that made Coogress Repubb~
and sent 73 GOP freshmen to the House, 91 percent of congressional
incumbents who ran won re-elc!c;tion.

They are. Voters in 22 states have imposed some version of term limits

GOP tightens financial over~ight pol.icies
• By PAUL SOUHRADA
Associated (&gt;nos Writer
COLUMBUS _Despite losing
Sri 000 of his annual living
all~wance, state Republican Chairman Robert Bennett says be's
leased with tbe GOP's new rman~ial oversight policies
"I don't talce it
a personal
affront," Bennett said Friday after
tbe-RepubUl:l!ll Siate Centi'!IJTOOI·
mittee adopted some new fiscal
policies.
''I think there was an attempt by
the 'committee to address each ron·
cern the governor raised.''
11Je changes came less than four
months after Gov . George
Voinovich blasted the stale party
for lavish spending.
Voinovich complained in
December about the party's leader·
ship and fiscal policies, holding out
Bennett's $115,000 salary and
otber-perl&lt;s for particular scrutiny.
·'We des!&gt;erately need much
better and more disciplined financial leadership and management at
the Ohio Republican Party,"
Voincrvicb wrote to committee
members.
·
" It needs a strategic plan to significantly reduce its operating
costs, including the salary and
perks of its chairman, to restore its
fiscal prudence and credibility."
The committee opted to keep
Bennett's salary the same for the
remainder of bis two-year term.
But it voted to keep ruture salary
levels to between the highest- and
lowest-paid statewide elected offi·
cials. This year, that would fall
between Lt. Gov. Nancy Hollister's

$59,POO
and
Voinavicb's
Sll5,900.
The committee did reduce Ben·
ncu's annual living allowance from
$24.~ to $18.000. He'll gel to
keep bts leased car and expense
account.
.
.
The commtttee also restrtcted
his !favel,and said it will ~view the
chairman s expenses.each quarttr.
Expenses for entertainment, travel
and meetings last year totaled nearly $44,000.

AP Special COrrespondent
LOS ANGELES - Prosecutors
in the O.J. Simpson trial want
Olympian-turned-celebrity Bruce ·
Jenner to testify about a Christmas
Eve fight between Simpson and his
ex-wife.
.
Plans_to subpoena the 1976
decathlon gold medalist were
revealed Friday in transcripts of a
sidebar conference between attorneys and JudgC\ Lance Ito.
"Ob, terrific," Ito replied when
told of the plan, the transcript
showed.
Pros~cutors said tbey want to
question Jenner about a party held
at his home and described in testimony by Simpson's friend Brian
"Kato" Kaelin. Kaelin said the
Simpsons argued and left the party
. angry al eildl otber because one of
Ms ~ Simpson's ex-boyfriends was
lhere.
: Jenner's wife, Kris, said her
husband was unaware of the prose-.
cution's plans to call him as a witness. "This is complete news to
us. t' she said.
. ·.- .
Meanwhile, Ito granted tbe Rev,
Jesse Jackson permission to visit
Simpson in jail: defense lawyer
. Carl Douglas said Friday. Simpson
requested the visit wben be learned
Jackson would be in town.
Coun was in recess Friday as
lhe judge worked in his chambers
on a number of pending matters,
The judge also announced a new
schedule tbai' wiU extend the coun
week by 5·112bours.
.
In another development revealed
in tbe uanscripts, tbe defense said ,
it wants to sbow that Nicole Brown
Simpson became alienated from
Kaelin and wanted him to move out
of her guest home. Simpson's
lawyers contend Kaelin had sided
with a maid Ms. Simpson bad
slapped.
•'Nicole bit the housekeeper and
Kato took tbe housekeeper's side
and therefore Nicole turned on
Kato," defense attorney Robert
Shapiro said during a sidebar conference with the judge and prosecutors Thursday.
Prosecutors bave tried In suggest instead that Simpson was a
jealous, obsessive man who didn' t
want Kaelin living under ·lhe same
roof as his ex-wife.
Kaelin, who resumes testifying
on Monday, .told jurors be" lived in
Ms. Simpson's guest bouse for
about a year but moved out at ber
ex-husband's suggestion when she
bought a condominium without a
guest bouse. Kaelin testified that
Ms. Simpson objected when be .
moved into Sunpson's guest bouse

As Air Force Maj. James D. Keels Jr. drives to work along .
the snow-laden fields at.this prairie-landscaped air base on
a cold, icy, midwestern winter morning, his thoughts tum
from the wannth and Comfort of his home and family, to the
1har:sh reality of a job he hopes he never has to do. Keels
mentally has to switch gears from a quiet, nonnal family life
to gearing up to defend t:Pe United States against a potential •.
adversary threatening to use nuclear weapons against his
country.
.
Keels, 37, son of James 0. Keels, 1040 Vaughan Road, Bidwell, is an
airborne planning staff officer aboard tlie Air Force's EC-135 "Looking
Glass" aircraft, which ifdirected by the president, can launch a retaliatory
nuclear strike against any adversary with land-based or submarine. launched ballistic missiles.

In New Yo~k state and across
the country, bar associations are
trying to deflate !be sbark image by
asking lawyers to act more like
teddy bears. They're waging media
campaigns to fight wbat they consider to be a bum rap.
"They're coming to grips with
the fact lbat maybe lbere's a public
relations problem," said Douglas
O'Brien oftbe New York State Bar
Association Task Force on lbe Profession. ''We have a lousy repula·lion because consumers believe we

Lawyers have been bashed at

were found with the remains of
King Herod's palace. Shakespeare,
in "Henry IV,'·' penned lbe enduring applause line ''the fust thing

One recent survey commissioned by tbe American Bar Association found ·respondents felt
lawyers were "greedy ... money

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)- Orrville's front line,

Clenord Irby, SGOred all of the points in a 17-5 third· quarter run that powered tbe Red Riders to a 79-50 victory over Wheelersburg -in the Division III state cbampionsbip Sa1urday.
.
·
The title was Orrville's second in four years. More
could be on the way, since Ray, Denson and lrby are all
juniors and lbe olber two Rider starters are also underclassmen.
Denson and Ray each scored 23 points and Irby
cbipped in wilb 14 for Orrville (24-3).

·A 19-6 run in !be fJtSt quarter allowed the Riders to
tum a 4-all tie into a 23-10 lead. Denson SGOred nine,
Ray six and Irby two points in that surge, accounting for
all bot the fust bucket.
Ahead 38-26 at the half as lbe big lbree scored 33
points, the Riders torched the game by scoring 17 or lbe

first22 points in the !bird quarter.
That run included a controversy when Ray was given
the fourth foul that should have gone to lrby because of
a mi&amp;Gommunication between the official and the &amp;Gorer.
Orrville· coach Steve Smith argued with the officials,
but tbe error stood.
,... It didn't matter in tbe end.
Neither player fouled out Ray ended up hitting '10of-16 shots from lbe field and had six rebounds and lrby

The maroon and gold will be a
~oung team with three seniors, nine
!uruors and four sopbanores maltmg up tbe roster.
Gheen must replace outfielder
Chad Du~can, catcher Jeremy
Grimm, third baseman Jared Stewart and second baseman Jason
George. George was an ~ll·TVC
selection last season and a all-dis trict choice.
Tbe Marauders will be led by
two flfSt-team, 311-lVC pitchers in
senior Brett Newsome and junior
Gary Stanley. Gheen feels !bat tbe
two right-banders give tbe Marauders tl!e best one-two pun'h in tbe
TVC. Stanley posted a 4-1 mark
last season, while Newsome bad a
4-3 mark.
Newsome also batted .320 on
!be season, while Stanley bit .317.
Gheen will also ·look for junior
Paul Pullins and sophomore
. Bradley Wbitlatcb to pull mound
duties for tbe maroon and gold.
Pullins will also see action at shortstop and second base.
Other lettermen returning are

-David Fetty (.270) and Scott

The Marauders will also be

BEREA, Ohio (AP)- Pro bowl
wide receiver Andre Rison signed a
$17 million, five-year deal with tbe
Cleveland Browns, making him tbe
biSbC$t paid receiver in NFL bistiX)'.
"Finally I feel appreciated," the
28-year-old Rison said after the
agreement was announced on Friday
•
by Browns owner An Modell. Only a
$5 million signing bonus was
guaranteed, Modell said. ·
Rison, wbo played for tbe Falcons
from 1990 to 1994 and played bis
rookie seaSon in 1989 with tbe Colts,
said joining the Browns was a
childhood dream of bis.
"They were a winner and that's wbat I was looking for," Rison said:
Rison has 475 career receptions, tbe second-highest total in NFL history
for six years.' He said be was determined to find a team tbat would belp
reach the Super Bowl.
.
''I figured my best opponunity was here in Oeveland. I'm trying to win
a championship," be said.
·
Head ·coach Bill Belichick· said· Rison "was tbe top free agent on lbe
market Ibis year.:' Belicbick s.a id be expected Rison to rejuvenate a
Browns offense that struggled at times last season.
.
"I think Andre will be; better for the off~nse in every respect,"
Belicbick said.
.
Rison said be was looking forward to teaming up witb Browns
quanerback Vinny Testaverde.
.
· ·
''The one thing I did see when I saw biro play was he bad a lot of bean
and a lot of courage," Rison said. .
Rison, who also had been couned by Green Bay, said that within ,!be
last two weeks be decided to sign witb tbe Browns, but tbe deal was
delayed over contract details.
Terms of tbe agreement were not disclosed. But Rison said earlier this
week tbe deal called for biro to be paid $17 million over five years.
The salary package calls for base salaries of $578,000 in 1995, $2
million in 1996, $2.1 million in 1997, $3.7 million ill 1998 and $3.7
million in 1999, Rison said.
Rison was a Pro Bowl selection each year from 1991 to 1994, and bas
four 80-catch, 10-touchdown seasons, second only to San Francisco's Jerry
Rice.
Rison bad 81 catches last season for 1,088 yards and eigbt.toucbdowns
for Atlanta but had disciplinary problems that led to' a one-game
suspension. The Falcons released bim during tbe winter because&lt; they
needed to make room under the salary cap.
His best season was 1991 , when be caught93 passes for 1,121 yards.
Rison's average salary of $3.4 million will top tbe $2.9 million per year
contract signed last monlb by Dallas Cowboys receiver Michael Irvin.
. Rison's contract wiU cost !be Browns $1.578 million - tbe base salary
plus one-ftftb of !be prorated signing bonus ...:. on tbeir 1995 salary cap of

SAN DIEGO(AP) - In various

spots along the Southern California

~oastline the beach is slowly. Y811·
tshing. Waves and man-made mtrusions are ·interrupting tbe yin and
yang of sand movement and erodmg the deplh and length of beaches.
In Oceanside, SO miles north of
San Diego, one man remembers
bei ng ab le to walt on the sand
toward the ocean for 300 feet
bef~re g~tting weL, Now, he says,
at htgh ude, he can t even walt on
the beach.
.
.
At the Seacoast Inn m Imperial
Beac h, 15 mile s south of San
Diego, steps that several weeks ago
led di rectly onto the beach now
hang fh e feet above the sand.
. Gu,mg down .lhe contour of San
Otego s ~hcs. toward the graceful, towenng bluffs of La Jolla and
the glassy tidal pools of Del Mar. a
visitor might believe the sand is a
permanent part of lhe picture..
" We have areas, where m .10,
20, 30 Y~ ,the )leaches are gomg
to~ gone, S81d Steve Sac~s. a
sen10~ P.lanner at the San Otego
Assoctauon of Governments. . .
Beaches and sand are as crucial

palm trees. They arc part of the
pitch that beckons tourists and settiers from far- flung places.
In 1990 the last year figures
were compiled, visitors to San
Diego beaches spent more than
$200 milli&lt;in, acconting to Sachs.
One reason why Del Mar
became Del Mar, wilh its elegant
race tract and cocttail party set, is
because of its expansive, lush
beaches.
On many Cali~omia beaches
these days, expanstve and lush are
bygone terms. Every year, Sachs
says, San Diego beaches lose an
average of one fOOt to five feet in
widlh.
Frank Mc Donald , who once
owned property by the water in
Oceanside, says beach ef~?Sion has
thinned the usual parade of sunbathers strollers swimmers
surfers ~d snorkele.;
'
Along what locaiS call ReStaurant Row near the Del Mar racetrack, diners orice looted out picture windows onto a broad carpet
of sparkling sand . Tl\ese days ,
boulders are piled under the windows to form a buffer against the
encroaching waves . During the

Wyoming ranch.. !ContlnuedfromC-7)
. pan."
. If neighboring state land is

taken into account, success in the
project would mean a protected
landscape similar in size to a three·mile coastline strip one-third the
. length of Long Island, N.Y. · .
Long Island,-wbich is about 120
miles long, is populated witb millions of pe·ople, while northern,
Wyoming bas only thousands.
Nonetbeless. tbe area is growing in
·popularity and major developments
are cropping up.
"These are a lot of the buffer
lands to what' s protected by the
national forest," Pierce said.
"They are tbe single-most threatened component to the landscape,

the most susceptible to development It kind of in perpetuity protects tbe most biologically stgnificant lands." ·
The conservancy has purchased
and protected 8 million acres in
North America, including 180,000
acres in Wyoming. The 790,000member organization typically
acquires sensitive land and bolds
onto it or gives it to a fedei'al agcncy.

patrons dine on calamari . and
shrimp cocktail.
Beaches may seel!' si mple to
those who come to build sand casties or bask in the sun, but in ~act
they are complex. They extend mto
the ground about 30 feet and out
into the water hundreds of feet,
before dropping into underwater
canyons.
Heallhy beaches have an inherent balance; wharever sand is lost
. generally is replaced over time.
Waves push sand out into the ocean
so far''lhat it can't return to shore,
but those same waves lash sea
cliffs chipping away at their core
and ~printling the beaches with
new sand.
As wind sca~~ers sand over land,
.rivers and s~ reclaim some of
it and dump it bact otlto the shore.
Urbanization says Sachs, has

Pendleton Marine Corps base,
where soon after World War IJ tbe
Army Corps of Engineers built a
harbor wnh jetties so Marines
could practice amphibious maneuvers.
. .
He says the Jetlles have blocked
tbe .sand from migrating southward
along tbe beach and abetted beach
erosion for some 20 mil~ of coast
down to Del Mar. He wntes angry

" We're in it as long as we're

The Citizcos' Committee on Judiclal Elections

That, along witb reaction from appeals court
judges and otbcrs, prompt-

"I have suggested to
tbem that they consider
tbe possibility that tbe
court .wiD be considering

said in an interview Fri-

"Tbey did not recom,

we want them to see

whether they have an
opinion as 10 what spending limits ougbt to be," be
said.
Tbe Ob io Supreme

Opposition to the

Panetta hints at blocking welfare reform

By JIM ABRAMS •
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - President Clinton will blOCk Republican welfare
reform measures that take away a poor child's right to.aid, White House
Chief of Staff Leon Panetta says.
"We would not allow that to be done," Panetta said Sunday on NBC' s
Meet the Press. "We want to provide a safety net for !hose kids."
But House Majority Leader Dick Armey, R-Texas, appearing on the
same program, played down the threat of a presidential veto of lhe welfare
reform package that passed the House last week.
"There's no doubt about i~" Armey said when asked if Clinton would
sign the bill. "The president's been talking about an opportunity to enct
welfare as we know it since bis fiCSt campaign."
. The House GOP plan would cut federal spending on welfare by $66
billion over five )'llarS by ending federal entitlement to welfare and wm-

ening was not imminent.
Hugh Johnson, market strategist
at Firs_t ~lbany Co~P ·• said t~e
report md1cated the economy 1s
slowing to a more sustainable, less
inflationary pace.
"That is very positive for
almost every sector of the stock
market," Johnson said. "If you're
leaning toward the economy slowing, you .piCk consumer non-cycli.cals. If you're leaning toward hi.'gber growth, you pick cyclical issues.
It's almost like .you're in a big
candy shop, and there's just so
much to choose."
Stocks were supported by the
bond market, where the 30-year
Treasury rose more than a point

ing over to the states the running of most social programs.
In often vitriolic debate on lhe House floor last week, Democrats said
the GOP plan was heartless becau!lt! it would cut off thousands of poor
children and molhers from needed relief. '
Republicans argued that the stateS could run lhe programs more effi·
ciently and effectively. The Senate is expected to take a far less drastic
approach to welfare reform than the House.
· Panetta said lhc Clinton administration wants to give greater flexibility
to lhe states to oversee social programs.
·
But be addid, "If lhey intend to block-grant lhe school lunch program
and the school breakfast program and !he food ·stamp program and the
programs that we think are necessary in order to assist in nutrition fpr
children, then there's no question that the president would object to those
proposals.
·

"You can't just pass this on to the states and say to hell with our
kids ."

Panetta also listed other areas, including Republican efforts to rewrite
the crime bill passed last year, where Clinton might exercise his veto
power.
"There are places where we are going to draw lines. We arc not going
to let them cut school lunches in order to provide tax cuts for lhc wcalUti·cst in Ibis country. We arc not going to lei them cut 100,000 cops off of
the president's crime bill. We are not going to let them move backward
wilh regards to education cuts,'' be said.
"
Clinton has supported a capital gains tax cut targeted at the middle
class, Panetta said. but anything like the Republican proposal "would be
unacceptable."
·
Clinton did not veto a single bill during his first two years in office,
when bolh houses of Congress were controlled by De)Docrats.
