(AP) - A solar observatory bw· tied toward tbe sun Saturday. after rocketing into space on a SI billion mission. An unmanned Atlas rocket carrying tbe Solar and Heliospheric Observatory. called Sobo, blasted off at 3:08 a .m. from C11pe Canaveral Air Station . Within a few hours, the spacecra ft was boo ste d out of Earth orbit and headin g toward tbe sun, with its power- generating solar panels and antenna' fully extended. Soho should reach its final des· tination in four months - a point nearly I million miles from Earth and 92 million miles from tbe sun. Tbe gravitational pulls of Earth and the sun cancel each other a t this point. There, Soho will peer continuously at the sun and send back data for two years, longer if NASA and th e European Space Agency can afford it. It · s considered the most com plex observatory ever built to study tbe sun 's deep interior as well as tbe corona , its outer atmosphere, and the ever-expanding solar wind. Un ltk e the 5-year-old Ulysses spacecraft which just completed a northern polar pass of the sun and now is headed out 10 Jupiter's orbit, Soho will remain between the sun and· Earth, going round and round an imaginary point in a socalled halo orbit. · Fabrizio Felici, mission director for th e European Space Agency, said Soho will provide a "special new look at the sun " from thi s unique vantage point . The 4, 100pound o bs ervatory has 12 telescope s and other sc ien ce in strument s - tllree from the United States and nine from Europe. Scientists plan to probe the sun's my sterious interior by souod waves. exhibited on the solar surface by oscillations and variations in brightness. This new method. called helioseismology, is analo· gous to usi ng earthquakes to study the Earth· s interim 1 . "Soho is poised' to make major mroads mto the understanding of our star," Felici said.

MEARS AP Special Correspondent WASHINGTON- The New Year's resolution came first this season - at Thanksgiving. Now budget negotiators for President Clinton and Congress arc trying to find a way to make the resolution real before · Cluistmas. The next crunch comes Dec. 15,- whcn the interim spending deal expires, with the odds against meeting that deadline. Then the choice will . be between another settlement to tide them over into January, or another ; · partial shutdown of the government. At least they're talking now, although sometimes angrily. Away from : tbe talks, both sides are politicking as usual, Republicans saying · : Democrats don't really want to balance the federal budget. Democrats call • GOP proposals 10 do it dangerous and extremist. This after a Nov. 19 settlement they bad called a major achievement. All that really happened was a short-tenn deal setting guidelines for action yet to come. ''1bis agreement reflects my principles,'' Ointon said • at the time. It seemed pliable enough to reflect anybody' s principles. .· House Speaker Newt Gingrich said the deal marked one of the historic ::.. days in the history of American government because it promises a bal• anced budget in seven years, the duef Repubhcan obJecllve. Some history lesson. The budget bargainers are still hassling over bow to count. The agreement that put the government back to work after its showy, costly, shutdown charade puts ·the Congressional Budget Office in charge of the economic assumptions crucial in any budget; it also promis· es consultation and review with the White House Office of Management and Budget and with private forecasters. That is not a fmc-print issue; using optimistic projections of economic growth, any president can write a balanced budget, and some have. None since Richard Nixon has delivered one that balanced at the end of the budget year. Projecting economic perfonnance for a year, let alone seven, amounts to informed guesswork. In this case, the difference between best and worst case forecasts could amount to as much as $500 billion over seven • . .years. Even a modest cbange to reflect economic perfonnance in recent -:months would make it $50 billion easier to get to the promised balance. Once !hat issue is settled, the bargainers will have to deal with cuts, :and that will require compromise. Clinton insists the Republicans want to .slash too much, a difference papered over in the Thanksgiving week deal : ·witl1 a pledge of adequate funding for programs like Medicaid, education :and "the environment. Adequacy depends on who's counting; Democrats : :want more spent on those programs than Republicans do. : · The president told federal wsrkers after the shutdown that kept . :800,000 of them off the job for six days mat they could become hostages : :again when the interim deal expires. The administration will try to get it : -extended: the Republicans will have to decide whether to yield the lever: :age of the shutdown threat. ·.: They'll also have 10 gauge the political impact. In the first round, the : ·polls indicated Republicans were getting most of the blame, although that ·:was beginning to shift a bit just before the deal. Sen. Bob Dole is the : ;Republican in the mi<klle. as the majority leader and the top candidate to : -challenge the president next year. Congressional blame would be a cam. :paign problem for him. : · Dole said chances of a deal in time are 50·50. Sen. James Exon, one of : :We Democrats' negotia!Ors, said it would be a major miracle to get it done · l>y Dec. 15. Sen. Tom Daschle, the Democratic leader. called it complete: iy unlikely. · -: "We'll know by Christmas whether or not an agreement is possible," : )Je said Thursday. That presumes another deal to keep the government : :going past midmonth. There are three pieces to be settled: appropriations · for this budget year. an overdue increase in the ceiling on the national · liebt, and the seven-year balanced budget plan Clinton guardedly accept: ed. -: When the administration seemed to be hedging on that, Republican : jcadcrs said Clinton had said he would do it, and they will hold him to his : word. · : That won't be easy in 2002. No matter what happens on the budget : pow and in the election next year, somebody. else will be president then. : : EDITOR'S NOTE- Walter R.

This mean s American soldiers should be ready to shoot back - and die - in Bosnia. Many early indicators suggest the Bosnian experience may be similar to Somalia - which noun· dered after public opinion turned decisively against the well-inten· tioned relief mission.

WASHINGTON- President Clinton's deci$ion to send 20,()()() American troops 10 Bosnia as part of a NATO peacekeeping operation bas prompted a huge sigh of relief at United Nations headquarters io New York - a fact that should give the president great pause. Clinton believes the deployment will be a success, in part because the troops are there to enforce peace rather than stop a war. But some U.N. officials - who have watched their organization auempt to deal with the Bosnian crisis for more than two years - privately predict the worst. "It's the world's biggest tar baby - you try 10 help and you get stuck there," one high-level American source at U.N. headquarters told us . "The more you struggle, the more you can't get away." The lesson of U.N. involvement is a depressing one if examined closely, and suggests that Clinton's decision could cost him the presidency. While U.N. peacekeeping officials generally praise Clinton's decision to deploy troops, they uni- formly warn that agreement5 by the warring factions in the former Yugoslavia have been frequently broken .

Gingrich counsels House GOP to be cautious WASHINGTON (AP) - Shortly after a White House meeting on Bosnia with President Clinton, Speaker Newt Gingnc h convened the House GOP leadership in hi s Capitol conference room . One by one. from Majority Leader Dick Anney of Texas to New York 's 'Rep. Gerald So lomon. an ex-Mari.ne. the group expressed strong opposi· tion 10 Clinton 's decision to send American . ground troops to uphold the peace agreement. Phone calls from the pub lic. they noted. were running against deploy· ment by staggering margins of 50-to1 or more. despite Clinton's speech the night before appealing for support. Armey had just said pubhcly that "getting a winning vote .. would be like pulling teeth throu.gh the back of your head." Gingrich. whi le no fan of the operation , counseled caution in the Tues· day meeting. With the initial deploy· ment of forces imminent, Republt · can' need to be careful not to undermine the thousand>of troops who will eventually go there, he said, according to others in attendance. These ofticials, speaking on condi· tron of anonymity, said Gingrich added he was " not crazy about the idea. but the president 's got a tough job when it comes to " making deci· sions on foreign policy issues such as Bosnia. He said he would not politi· cize 1he issue. according to several GOP lawmakers, and has spoken criti· cally of fanner Speaker Tom Foley and the current Democratic Leader, Rep. Richard Gephardt of Missouri . both of whom opposed i'resident Bush 's call for congressional backing for the Persian Gulf War. Also. according to these Republi· cnns. Gingrich has made clear hi s view that the GOP "can't cut off money" forthe troops who will soon be on the ground on the constitutionally valid orders of the commanderin-chief. Nor would he permit legislation to reach the floor that he can· t vote for. Despite calls from severallawmak. ers within the caucus to rally opposition to Clinton's policy, Gingrich has stayed silent thus far, although spokesman Tony Blankley said Friday the speaker may be ready to address the issue publicly this week . In contrast to Gingrich' s reserve on Bosnia, Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole is drafting legislation support· ing the mission. with conditions intended to assure the safety· of the troops and provide for a timely depar· ture, includin g helping arm the Bosnians so they can defend them selves afterwards.

In the Division VI state football final, Defense helps St. Henry post 10-7 win over Buckeye Central By RUS1Y MILLER MASSILLON, Obio (AP)Four times in the last six years, the guy accepting the Division VI state championship bas been St. Henry coach Tim Boeckman. But be doesn't take the honor lightly. "We don't take this crap for granted," Boeckman said after St. Henry bopped Buckeye Central 107 Saturday in the state finals. "We work hard. Once you get here, you want to come back.' ' Unlike previous years, when offensive stars like 1990 Mr. Foot· ball Bob Hoying, his brother Tom Hoying , wide receiver Scptt Brunswick and linemen Jeff Hart· ings and Jim Lachey ruled the roos~ this win was attributable 19 a rock-hard defense. St. Henry limited Buckeye Central to just two first downs in the second half, making Mark Buscbur's one-yard touchdown run in the second quarter stand up. . St. Henry, ranked No. l in ihe final regular-season Associated Press poll, posted its third 14-0 sea· son ever and has won its last 21 games. Previous state titles came in 1990, 1992 and 1994. Buckeye Central (13-1), sixth in the poll, was making its first appearance in a state final . Tbe Bucks were limited to 41 toL'Ii yards and completed only one of II passes in the second half. "That's the best defense we played against all year," said Buckeye Central co ach Mike Tracey. "It wasn't their defensive schemes but their skill.'· The teams scored on the first three possessions, but that was it as the defenses took command. St. Henry took over after tbe opening kickoff at its own 34 and drove to the Buckeye Central 3 where it had to settle for a 29-yard field goal by Jason Garman. Key plays in the drive included a ISyard run by Buscbur and scrnmbles of 14 and 10 yards by AP Division VI player of the year Ryan Uhlen· hake. Buckeye Central made it to the final on the strength of 1ts brawny running game . The Bucks threw just two passes in three previous playoff games - one an incomple· tion and the other an interception. But quarterback Mike Sipe hit two passes in as many attempts as BC drove 60 yards the fust time it touched the ball. S ipe bit Eric Clady with passes covering 10 yards and 26 yards - the latter for the touchuown on the first play of the second quarter. He also skirted right end and broke live tackles for seven yards and a first down on a critical fourth-and-six play at the St. Henry 32. St. Henry came right back with a 73-yard march that began with Uhlenhake completing a 36-yard pass to fellow aii-Ohioan Randy Hemmelgarn. Uhlenbake also pulled up on an option keep and flipped a pass to Buschur for 16 yards and kept for seven yards on a fourth-and-two situation at the BC II. Buschur's one-yard plunge and Garman's kick ended the scoring. Buckeye never threatened again. The Bucks drove to the St. Henry 43 but were forced to punt on their next possession and had their final drive of the half ended by the clock. St. Henry:s defense forced the Bucks to run three plays and then punt on their fust four possessions of the second half. " The bottom line is defense. It's the name of the game. And I think that showed today," Boeckman said. BC' s defense stopped Buschur on a fourth-and-one situation at the Buckeye 22 with 3:44 left, but the Buckeye Central drive stalled after ·one first down when Sipe tossed two incompletions and was hit hard twice at the line attempting to avoid the Redmen rush. Two plays after taking over at the Buckeye 32 with 1:49 left, however, Uhlenhake. fwnblcd after · a 16-yard gain to the 11 and Clady recovered . But th e St. Henry defense stiffened again. · Sipe completed a pass to David Teynor for 12 yards on first <lawn. Sipe scrambled for a 23-yard gain on the next play, but it was brought back because of a clip. The Bucks never got past their own 18 again . Sipc finished 3-for-14 passing for 47 yards, while Ublenhakc was 9-of-14 for 64 yard s. Uhlenhake also rushed for 68 yards on 16 carries and Buschur had 71 on 22 attempts. 0 ~n today's NFL scene, Bills -& 49ers to meet.; Ohio clubs to play Packers & Chargers .

"lt"s a problem that we have to correct. We can't keep putting our defense in that situation. It's been bailing us out all season."' The 49ers have a new dueat: J.J . Stokes. their first-round draft pick, who ' s finally living up to his promise after missing the first twothirds of the season with assorted injuries. He caught his first two touchdown passes as a pro last week in a 41-13 win over the Rams and makes it even more difficult to contain Rice and Taylor. It's also the way be did it. "He just made two good cuts, unbelievable cuts," Rice said. " Instead of just calching the hall and being tackled for about Hl yards, he made a big play and got into the end zone. We need plays like that." Just what the 49ers needed. Just what the rest of the NFI:. joesn't need . San Francisco's the hotter team.

Now, unless thr Chiefs totally fold, the RaiCJers will have to settle for !he top AFC wild-card spot. Even if they pick up the two games, the Chiefs are in better tiebreaker position . This is a classic AFC rivalry, made more classic by the Raiders' move back to Oakland. It's also an odd one. Although the Raidll(IS and Chiefs have been relatively even over ltte past halfdozen years, the Chiefs have won II of the last 12 meetings, includ· ing a 23-17 ovenime win at Arrowbead in September. They also won the last time they played at Oak· land 14 years ago. So what does this game mean? Marty Schottenheimer didn't even seem to know that a win could clinch the AFC West title for the Chiefs. "You mean it?" Scholten heimer asked when told. "I might mention it to the players. But I don"t want to spend all week · dwelling on it." More important to Kansas City is re-establishing some confidence that seemed to have been lost in the 24-12 Thanksgiving Day loss at Dallas. But the Chiefs played better In that road loss than the Raiders did in losing 34-21 at home to .the .Cowboys two .weeks ago, a game in which Jeff Hostetler bruised a , shoulder. ··'Hostetler is out again this week. But after Monday night. it might notmatter. . Atlaflla (7·5) at Miami (6-6) Dan Marino is just about out of records to break, which may be a good thing. Every time he breaks one, the Dolphins lose. " I know they're upse t. I'm upset," Don Shu Ia said of the fans and media clamoring for Jimmy Johnsml to replace him as coach. "Everybody's upset. The thing I can't do is let it drag me down. I've got to work hard to get Ibis team back up so they're ready for the game this week." The question is whether the Dolphins, who have lost six of eight, can get back up . Players are squabbling with each other and with the coaches, and their 19 ftrstround draft choices haven't meshed into a team. The Falcons, legitimate wild· card contenders, lost in overtime at Arizona last week, allowing 413 passing yards to Dave Krieg. They get Marino this week and tbey"re 24 on the road. "I just hope that all that went wrong, went wrong, and that. we don't have any more of those left," June Jones said of his team's desert demise . Houston (S· 7) at Pittsburgh (8·4) The AFC Central is Ibis bad: the Steelers, who started so badly, can clinch the division title by winning this game. They should.

Not one of Detroit's key players ranks lower than fifth in any individual category. Sanders is sec9nd in rushing with I ,232 yards.

After all coats are mended and cleaned, volunteers deliver them to the .schools, and teachers discretely give them 10 ihe chi I· dren. "This is a great program .

The scenery in the tv series has long fascinated me. Our son-in-law, a civil engineer, is also entranced with the program and the rock bridge at the beginning of the series. I told George our mission, besides enjoying the scenery of the Yorkshire Dales, was to take a picture of "that" bridge for our son-in-law, Doug. We took a local train from York 10 Thirsk, the reai"Darrowby" in the series.

One, a lady from Phiiadelphia and Atlanta (who had moved to Scotland with her husband after their f~rst visit), looked up the location of the bridge for us. It was some 35-40' miles away with limited public transportation at thaltimeofthe year. She did tell us "thesurgery"wasjustacross the street, though, and informed us of the latest information on the true-life characters of the series. James Her· riot's real name was James Alfred Wight. His son, Jimmy, is now a vet· erinarian and practices in Thirsk in his father's old surgery. The Senior Wight, James Herriot, passed away thts last year from cancer. His daughter, Rosie, is a medical doctor and p~actices medicine in Thirsk. I did not inquire, but from memory, 1 believe '· Helen (Joan in real life) passed away several years ago.

Tristan (Brian Sinclair) was reporJed to have died of a hean attack sevcml years previously. The person portrayed as Callum, in some of the series, was killed in a motor vehicle accident. I believe this occurred in Canada, where he had moved (mirroring the book). We took the train back to York and rented a car to drive where the series was filmed in the Yorkshire Dales. In real life. James and Siegried had a partner in Richmond , Scotland, and James frequently spent time help)ng him. Their area was huge and encompassed the Yorkshire Dales to the coast.

And there's .always the Christmas morning ritual of making an edible tree or having Santa Claus leave present~ on the front porch. These are some ot the unusual ways Americans are celebrating the lioiidays in the '90s, according to a survey that found, quirky or not. this country still holds its family traditions dear. "Despite the national conct:rn over loss of family values and our -high-tech, fractured lifestyles, family traditions are alive and well," said Nicholas Tortorello, vice president of Roper Starch Worldwide Inc., which conducted the research. The survey found 41 percent of. Alilericans place inore emphasis on traditions than their parents did; 87 percent believe traditions should be passed on, and 77 percent believe it is important to.·create their own holiday customs. And create lbem l,bey do. One respondent said his family celebrated with a game of tennis. Another •• said the custom was a hunting trip. Otbers rang in the holidays by drinking 100-year-old cognac. Commissioned by the Boston Market restaurant chain, the survey was ..based on telephone interviews earlier this year with 1,006 people. whose average age was 43. The emphasis on traditions in the survey could be an indication of change among baby boomers, said Mitch Handelsman, a University gf Colorado-Denver psychology professor. "It's conceivable the baby boom generation bas finally grown up," be said, "finally gotten out of their self-indulgent thing, and are having kids and thinking about how to raise them." Even with all the improvising, some rituals never seem to go out of style. More than balf the survey respondents, for example, prefer turkey and hain during the holidays. 'Eighty-one percent of the woolen plan the meal; 83 percent of womeri pt:epare it and 68 percent of women do the dishes. • l89•99 3999 8%11F Aame Thrower HI Really burns up the road!

I can't be concerned about the energy saving bi~ but I am concerned that 9,000 fewer people in the year that fol· lowed weren'tldlled on our highways - not to mention lbe many who were probably saved from being mangled. The speed limit is now left to the states and it bas been indicated that Ohio will not change fmm its present structure. I think we need to bold our Obio officials to that.

But he changed his mind and revitalized a classic. Tbrougb Brett's alchemy, Holmes was reborn with a mesmerizing. reptilian mien of danger and twitchy vulnerability. Hi s portrayal of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's brilliant sleuth came to America in 1985 as pan of PBS' Mysrery' series. The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes bows out this season with the last episodes shot before Brett's death Sept. 12. ' ' The Cardboard Box " ai rs Thursday (Dec. 7) on Myste ry' with four more episodes to show weekly from Jan. 4-25 . (The debut story. ironically titled "The Dying Detective," aired Thursdav. Nov. 30.) . Critics declared Brett "the best Holmes ever." a tribute thai now s1ands a> an epilaph. For Brett the eyes had it. Titey were a heavy-lidded window into Holmes' menial dismemberment of the thorniest problems. And what a righteous glower - enough to melt any murderer's poise. Edward Hardwickc. who played Dr. Watson opposite Been 's elegant Holmes for much of the 41 · episode series, says hi s colleague and friend deserved more than crit· ical plaudits. , " I don ' t feel he ever got the recogniti on he deserved for that performance.' · Hardwicke says. ''I think it's a remarkable achievement to pl ay Holmes and, to some extent, erase the memory of some great performances in that pan." But no Emmy. or its British , Sunday Times-Sentinel/C8 equivalent, came to Brett. " Tnag· ic," says Hardwicke, as loyal as Watson. Heart failure claimed the life of the 59-year-old actor. He finished filming the Holmes episodes in February 1994. gamely struggling through physical frailty. Emotional frailty dogged Breit as well: He suffered a nervous breakdown and depression after his wife Joan Wil son, who produced Mystery' ami Masterpiece Theatre. died of cancer in 1985. The despair that shaded his Holmes emerged from within , Hardwicke believes. " lnevilably. if you're going to do a role as long as that. you have to draw on some pan of yourself," Hardwicke said, speaking by phone from London. "I think there was a dark side to Jeremy, and the dark side was what made that character. his pertormance. very exciting. "I think he discovered a whole area of his acting that hadn't been lapped before be did Holmes. "One of the tragic things with Jeremy is that discovery carne too late for him to lake off in different directions. which I think he would have done easily." Breu was tluilled by the series· success, particularly in America. and proved protective of Holmes and the Doyle canon. " He used to get furious if anyone said 'Elementary. my dear Watson,"' recalled Hardwicke. It's a phrase which, contrary to popular myth, docs not appear in Doyle's stories. · Breit was equally watchful when it came 10 props and· wardrobe on the series produced by England's Granada Television. .

" There was also a deeply complicated thing about (tobacco) pipes." And yet , he says, Brett had a "love-hate thing" with Ho~nes . "He was a bit of a romantic at hcan. I don't think he liked putting all that black grease on his hair and wearing those dull clothes. Jeremy, in his own way, was a very flamboyant persoo ." He was also, it turned out. the right Holmes for our time. "The curious thing about Holmes is that he's a bit like Hamlet : Every generation invents him anew." Hanlwicke said. "Jeremy instinctively and intuitively brought something of our period to the screen." That contemporary quality neurotic, stressed - would have hecn unacceptable in a 1930s Basil Rathbone movie portrayal. Hardwicke says. Despite the weighty role and personal demons, Brett was a chanmer on the set He had an infectious laugh and impish instiqcts. At one point he armed himself with a camera. · snapped candid photographs of the cast and crew and then posted them around the set "It immediately created a kind of jokey. light atmosphere," Hardwicke says. "He just knew a way of getting everybody to work together." It was the camaraderie Breit missed when, toward the end, his illness imposed unwelcome soli· tude. "He was the kind of actor who, in the very best sense, loved to show off. He loved to be pan of a team of people making a program and chatting and laughing," Hard· wicke says.

Variable annuities offer attractive tax advantages By JAY CALDWELL GALLIPOLIS - An important pan.of evaluating the strength of an investment is knowing how much you can reasonably expect 10 cam from it-after taxes. An in· crease in taxes can mean a decrease in your net invesunent earnings. While you may wonder .what you can do to reduce taxes on your investments, remember that it is not an easy task keeping up with current tax law and its impact on investing. So, what's a savvy investor to do? The Solution: Variable Annuities For starters, consider the attractive tax advantages that a variable annuity orfers. Under the Internal Revenue Code, variable annuities prqvide investors with: ·tax-deferred growth, tax free transfers, and tax control. You can usc these advantages to help you accumulate your retirement savingsmoreefficie .. tly. Here's how. Tax-Deferred Growth There are no current taxes on interest, dividends or realized gains which accumulate within a variable annuity. Taxes on these earnings are deferred until withdrdwn. Deferring taxes leaves more money in your account, enabling your account to accumulate raster than a taxable invesunent. Once you begin to deter your taxes, you can benefit from the additional advantage of lax-deferred compounding or triplecompounding. Thai means you can earn returns on your pnncipal, returns on earnings, and returns on money that would oth· erwise be lost to yearly income tax. Tax-Free Transrers Another advan1age orfered by your variable annuity is that transfers between investment options within your annuity are tax-free, gains are not reponed to the IRS . This enables you to make in vestment decisions without worrying about the tax consequences. Tax Control As long as you don't take a withContinued on D-8 Second annual candlelight ceremony set Dec. 10 So dou 't \\' :tit unti l tht· Lht millllll' .

Richard Lapointe case a strange one By BRIGITfE GREENBERG Associated Press Writer MANCHESTER, Conn. Richard .Lapointe walked' iuiO the police slation on July 4, 1989. and during nine hours of interrogation. confessed to raping and murdering an elderly woman who had treated him like a grandson. For many. that would be enough to call il an open-and-shut case. Yet Lapointe's treatment at the hands of the criminal justice system bas become a cause celebre in Connecticut. Today. Lapointe is prisoner No. 184163 at the MacDougall Correc· tional Institution in Suffield, where he likely will spend the rest of his life unless an appeal goes in his favor. Outside prison, a dedicated group of about 20 supporters, a few famous and many of them advo· cates for the mentally retarded, have led efforts to free him. As convinced as lbey are of his innocence. many of lbe people who knew Lapointe besl. who spent holidays and special occasio~s w!th him, are equally as sure of b1s guilt. The crux of the appeal is whether Lapointe is a relatively intelligent man who willingly confessed to sexually assaulting, stran· ' gling and stabbing 88-year-old Bernice Martin, or whether be is so brain-damaged that be could nol defend himself in a nine-bour inter· rogation and was tricked into inciiminating himself. .. "I'm different, you know, from the rest of the people," Lapointe, 50, said in a recent prison interview. "I guess I'm a little slow or .something like that." .· "The defendant has an average IQ. It's 92,'.' Assistant State's Auomey Rosita M. Creamer told the jury at the close of his trial three years ago. "This is nowbere close to being slightly relllfQed. · . Relarded is below 70." Lapointe's siOry begins in 1960 as a 15-year-old growing up in one of Hartford's roughest bous_ing pro- · jects. A shorl, oddball kid with thick glasses, other teen-agers sometimes taunted him with the name of a cartOOn character, "Mr. Magoo." He needed a hearing aid and tended to wobble when he walked. Doctors diagnosed him with Dandy Walker Syndrome, a congenital condition where a cyst fonns on the brain from a buildup of fluid in the skulL The doctors operated five times, using a shunt to drain the liquid thai left him with an enlarged head. But the condition wasn't caught in time. He suffered brain damage lbat left him with recurring headaches, dizziness and a short attention span. He was unable to finish bigb schooL Despite that, Lapointe Jed a seemingly normal life. He always bad a job doing some sort of menial labor, such as washing dish· es. On Feb. 26. 1977, he married a woman with cerebral palsy. Karen Martin. Two years later, following a difficul! pregnancy, Karen gave birth to a healthy son. Sean. The family lived in a condominium in Manchester, near some members of her family . Lapointe even became the presi~ent of the condominium association. The days w·ere filled with routine: Richard would get up and go to wort. washing dishes at a local restaurant, and Karen would rake care of Sean. On Sundays, after church, they would visit Karen's grandmother, Bernice, who lived just a third of a mile away at a senior citizens housing complex. ·_., AI lis start, March 8, I 987. was no different than any Oilier Sunday. The family went over 10 Bernice· s house and spent tbe aflernoon watching television. The Lap;>intes walked home afterward. !

She came downstairs, finding her husband in frollt of the lele~:iion seL End of story. If you believe police and prosecutors, while Karen was upstairs with Sean, Richard walked back over to Bernice's home, finding her alone, wearing a pink housecoat. He made a pass al her, which she rejected. He grabbed her, threw her on her bed, and raped her. She threatened to tell Karen, so Richard grabbed a steak knife from the kitchen. slabbed her and strangled her. Then he set fire to various areas of the a)latlment to cover up the crime, and returned home. About 8 p.m., Nalalie Howard, who is Bernice's daughter and Karen •s aunt, called Karen to say she was worried because she had tried calling her mother and got no answer. At Howard· s request, Richard, who wa.~ home at the lime. walked over to Bemice's home. He said he knocked on her door but got no response, then went to a neighbor's to use the phone to call Howard. She told him to check again. When be went over a second time, Richard said he spoiled smoke and went to the neighbor's 10 call 9 II . He was still there when frrefighters and paramedics arrived. The crime remained unsolved for.more lhan two years when police called Richard at borne and asked him 10 come to police headquarters. Because Lapointe did not drive. an officer picked him up. Police de!ectives Paul Lombardo and Michael Morrissey used a deceptive, though legal method in questioning Lapoime. They told him that they knew he murdered Martin, that his fingerprint.s were oo the knife. Morrissey, in a separate interview with Karen, told her that police _had DNA evidence .linking him 10 lbe crime. None of this was true. Over a period of nine hours, police interrogated him in a room on the second floor of police beadquarters. Lombardo questioned him first, starting about 4 p.m.; Morrissey took over later.

He knew you were ,suffering and cure was not to be. He put His arms around yo• and whispered "Come with Me." With tearful eyes we watched, as you slowly passed away, and tllough we loved you dearly, It was not felr to make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest, God broke our hearts to prove He only takes the best. It's lonesome here without you and we miss- you more eacll day. Life doesn't seem tile same since you have gone awily. Each time we see your picture, you see11 to smile and say, "don't cry, I'm In God's k..pleg and we will meet again some dey."

Variable annuities.~nunuedfromD-1 drawal from your variable annuity, your investment wiU grow without being exposed to current income tax. Subsequently, you will notreceivean annual 1099 form for tax reporting purposes. What's more, in the absence of a withdrawal, your earnings will not be included as part of the Social Security tax calculation. The bottom line is that you de· cide when you want to pay the taxes because you decide when to make the withdrawal. That translates into more tax conttol for you. For example. you may choose to begin payout of your annuity at a time when you are.in a lower tax bracket, presumably at re~ement. And . with a variable annuity. in most states you can defer taxes up to age 90. Please not that the IRS does require a minimum payout for participants of qualified plans begin· ning at age 70 1/2. With tax-deferral your money works harder, helping your assets grow. The end result could be a larger future income. How do you measure gain? There's no mystery behind the tax advantage that a variable annuity offers.

Page 4 • ent1ne Proper care of .live Christmas trees ByHALKNEEN POMEROY • Arc you planning to buy a live Christmas tree this year? Whether the tree is freshly cut or balled (rooted system and surrounding soil is wrapped in a burlap bag) proper care will increase your enjoyment of your purchase. For·your live cut tree. trim the lower branches so the trunk fits lhe rree stand you utilize. Reclll at least one to two inches off the base of the trunk so the tree can absorb fresh water. Note that your cut tree can absorb 1·3 quarts of water daily as its needles transpire water vapor into tbe home. Check tbe water reservoir in the plant stand daily, replace with luke warm water as needed. Keep your decorated tree away •from warm drafts and if possible, bright sunny windows. Use cool white tree lights when uewrating. Remember. never leave the Cbrislmas tree lights on when you are not at home. Tbe purchase of a live balled Christmas tree for later planting in tbe home landscape can be a rewarding experience. Because of the extreme environmental changes imposed on the tree, however, no nne can guamnlcc live trees taken inside the home for U1e holid:~y season will survive. The follnwing suggestions by Randy Heiligrnann. Ohio St:lle University Extension Natural Re.,ourccs Specialist may help you reduce the stress placed on the plalll and help insure success when the tree is planted oul,ide. When purcha.,ing a tree, remember that you are,uealing with a living plant. Be sure it is healthy. The ball of soil around the roots should be solid, and the needles should be attached ftnnly, feel fresh and have good colors. At borne, store the tree in a cool, protected place such as an unheated garage or shed. Tbe plant is dor· mant and should stay that way so that when it is placed outdoors again, it will survive the winter. Keep the soil around the roots moist to keep the tree from dryin! out. If the tree is brought into a warm borne, plan to leave it there less than a week. The shorter the time indoof!i, the better the chances of survival. After being indoors, the tree should be moved back to a protect· ed area so it can adjust to the cold. Keep the soil ball moist and apply :m :mti -ucsiccanl to the needle~ to prevent drying out. Select a site for your tree lhat is well drained and sheltered from winter winds-do this even before purcha,ing the tree. Remember, the tree will grow to considerable size in a few years, so select an open area. If you have poorly drained so l, bring in soil and build up a mound to plant the tree in. Dig the hole twice as wide as the width of the ball. Work organic matter such as peal moss, leaf mold, compost or well-rotted manure, and mix it into the soil. Cover the area with 4-6 inches of straw, mulch or leaves to prevent the grollnd from freezing. When planting, place the ball in the hole with tlte top of the ball slightly higher than its original level. This allows for settling, which will occur the following year. Once the tree is planted, mulch to prevent water loss and stake if it is in a windy location. To stake the tree . driv e 2x2 wooden stakes firmly into the ground about a foot from the out· side b_!anches. Three stakes places around the tree will hold it in place. If a single take is used, place it on tbe prevailing wind side. If guy wires arc used. surround the tree trunk with a piece of garden bose io prevent injW')'.

New state program offers more choice RIO GRANDE • A new state program designed to pranote long· term care planning, preserve con· sumer choice and lessen state Med· icaid costs is now available to seniors, their families and other consumers of long-term care. The program, Care Choice Ohio, was implemented by the Ohio Department of Aging after research was completed last fall, and is offered as a service of the Area Agency on Aging District 7, Inc. Care Choice Obio offers free, in-borne evaluations and case-specifiC care plans for seniors and oth· ers wbo wish to plan· for their longterm care needs. Long-term care services are often needed by older citizens, accident survivors or people who live with a condition that requires rehabilitation. Care Choice Ohio can help consumers and their families make wise long·terin care decisions by providing lhe latest information on available services, eligibility requirements, financial resources required and personal care needs. According to agency Executive Director Pamela K. Matura, "Care Choice Obio is your short cut to long-term care. We're helping peo· pie prepare today for tomorrow's choices." Care Choice Ohio is available to seniors who do not qualify for existing prognuns such as PASS· PORT, a state-funded service for low-income seniof!i, and people of all ages who may require long-term ·care. Care Choice Ohio was developed in 1993, after Governor George Voinovich and the Ohio Department of Aging began search· ing for a system that could divert families from costly forms of care. cut the Medicaid burden. and preserve consumer choice. The White House Commission on Aging reports that nursing borne care currently costs a yearly aver· age of $30,000 per patient, a finan· cia! cost that exhausts resources of individuals who pay privately for their care in just 13 weeks. With the nation's annual nufliing borne expenditures expected to reach $168 billion in 2018, many more families will find that their savings fall short of their care needs. Care·Cboice Ohio educates fam· ilies about tbe services available in their communities, so that a wider choice of cost-effective, indepen· dent care options can be consid· ered. Care Choice Ohio consultants from the Area Agency on Aging District 7, Inc. wUI meet individu· als in their home, to belp them plan ahead for nursing home care, and to outline in-home and community· based care options. In 1993, more than 180,000 Ohioans received home health care services from cer· tified agencies, including nearly 56,000 individuals under the age of 65. Financial control can also be maintained by planning care needs, and using the best quality and least e~pensive method of receiving serVIces. Care Choice Ohio wiU work with physicians, attorneys, bank trust officers, accountants and other professionals who regularly encounter their clients' long-term care needs. By working together to promote early planning, a family's assets or insurance benefits are less likely to be exhausted when more acute care becomes necessary. "When we surveyed the seniors and families of Ohio about their concerns about long-term care, most reported they were concerned about the cost and quality of the care they'll need someday. They also wanted to stay at home for as long as possible. Care Choice Ohio can address all of these needs while educaling Ohio's citizens about their choices as long-term con· somers." said Judith Y. Bracbman. director of the Ohio Department of Aging. . "Everyone wins with this pro· gram-taxpayers win because fewer individuals will be forced to rely on the overburdened Medicaid system, individuals seeking longterm care win because information can be easily accessed in one place, and family members win, because there is piece of mind knowing their loved one's care needs will be met," she said.

Newspaper Candidates tangle over peace mission By SALLY BUZBEE As.oociated Press Writer WASHINGroN - Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole is challenging fellow Republican presidential candidates to join him in supporting President Clinton's plan to send troops to Bosnia. ,"We have a responsibility to the American forces there. It shouldn't be political," the Kansas Republican said Sunday on CBS' Face rhe Narion . Dole made it clear he wants the president's plan altered, but he urged his GOP rivals 10 follow his lead. ''I'm going to support the troops," Dole said, "I think Pat Buchanan will. I hope Phil Granun will." Gramm, the Texas senator, bas been one of the loudest opponents of the plan to send U.S. troops to Bosnia. Buchanan, appearing on ABC's This Week with David Brinkley, said Congress should lceep fighting the president 10 keep troops out and avoid anolher Beirut or Somalia. "Why, in a democratic republic, when the American peo ple are opposed and the Congress of the United States is opposed, would you launch an American army into an area where the prospects ... are very high for a debacle?" Buchanan asked. While Gramm said last week he would not support Clinton's Bosnia action, his national campaign chairman, Sen. John McCain. R-Ariz .. bini · ed Sunday that Granun may eventually change that stance. "Senator Gramm does not want to do what Pat Buchanan is seeking. He does not want to cut off funding, •• McCain said on the Brinkley show. "He wru1ts to express his disapproval, which many congressmen do. But they also know they have an obligation as elected officials to go ahead and see how they can best make the situation more viable. " McCai n said. Dole made it clear the tightrope Granun must walk. "We have force s on lhe ground now, and the American people arc going ro rally around the American forces." Dole said. " If Phil Gramm wants 10 say be doesn' t support the American forces there. I'll be glad to have 01at debate wi01 him ."

Senators are drafting a plan that would require the United States to train and arm Bosnian Muslims so they could defend themselves when American troops leave, Dole said.

Mining law reform _.Holida reflections----- Dole, GOP pressing branded a 'sham' for budget by its opponents By H. JOSEF HEBERT Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON - What a deal! The righl to mine $2.9 billion worth of copper and silver for a scant $1,745- thanks to a 123· year-old mining law everyone agrees ought to be changed. Now a proposal in the Republi· can-crafted budget package would end some of the abuses under the law, say its supporters. But critics, including Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt, maintain the GOP plan is "a s!Jam' ' wrinen by the mining industry and will do little to stop the giveaways. And it may make it more diffi· cult to achieve broader mining refonn in lhe future, the proposal's opponents argue. The mining provision is among the handful of environmental poli· cy issues that have become embroiled in the budget brouhaha pitting the White House against the Republican-leu Congress. Like a proposal to open an Arc· tic refuge to oil drilling, Dpmocrats say the mining "refo rms" are another example of congressional Republicans, primarily from West" ern states, trying to help private jndustry gel at resources on federal lands. In 1872, Congress decided to let the public buy federal land for mining for as little as· $2.50 an acre as a way help open up the West. The law. including its now ridiculously low selling price, hasn't been changed since. Amid strong lobbying by the mining industry, numerous reform efforts failed in recent years. But with the continued clamor for change,'lawmakers from Western mining states - wilh a green light from the mining industry - began pushing a new reform proposal last summer as part of 01e budget pro· cess. The elTon represents "responsi· ble, meaningful reform," for the first time providing a royalty and requiring that the land be sold for its surface value, instead of as little as $2.50 rut acre, says Jack Gerard, a mining industry lobbyist. Gerard. a spokesman for the Minerals Resources Alliance, which represents the mining industry, accuses Babbitt of grandstand· ing and suggests that his reform proposals would drive mining companies overseas and put miners out of work . But Babbiu <md other longtime critics of lhe 1872 Mining Act . characterize the GOP proposal a "sham" meant to make it more difficult to achieve significant mining' law reforms in the years to come. ''The so -called reforms would simply perpetuate the swindle, only on slightly less outrageous terms,·' argues Babbitt, who last week announced the sale of 340 acres of federal land in Arizona to a private · company, ASARCO Inc .. for a scam $1,745. even though the land contains an estimated $2.9 billion in copper and silver. . Under the law, the company paid $5 an acre and will have to pay no royalties on the minerals recovered . Company officials said they've already invested $15 million in exploration and ·a fullfledged mining operation could cost another $500 million. Even so. says Babbilt, the tax· payers are gelling fleeced. · Under a royalty scheme support· eu by the Clinton administration last year , ASARCO would have had to pay 4 percent on minerals before lhey are processed - a fee he said would have netted 'the government $100 million over lhe life of the Arizona mine. proposal Among the many displays at the Meigs Museum for the annual Christmas open bouse Sunday was one featuring letters written home by servicemen in World War U. Most of the letters displayed were written to Edna Hite of Pomeroy, mother of serviceman Kimball Rite. One from Kenneth Kelly Grueser is include\! on the "Letters Home" poster put out by the Society of Ohio Archivists to mark the 50th anniversary or the ending of the war. The Rev.

"They owe us a counter offer," Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, R-Kan ., said Sunday. If Clinton "doesn't ~;>me forth with anything and make any serious offers, then we have to face up to a shutdown again on the 15th." Failure to make progress by Dec.

The White House said Sunday night the Republicans have to come up with some offers, too. Deputy economic adviser Gene Sperling said the Republicans "cannot wish away" lheir part of the agreement that ended the shutdown Nov. 19. "The unasked - and certainly unanswered - question is why the Republicans have refused to offer any specifics or details as to bow they would meet their part of the agreement to find ways to protect environmental, education and other social programs," he said. The first week of negotiations between the White House and Congres s last week made no real headway. The talks are 10 resume on Tuesday. Dole on Saturday said that clos· ing down government just before Christmas was "not going to happen." But he was less certain on CBS' Face 1he Narion Sunday, saying he thought a shutdown would be a "mistake" that the president was responsibiJ:, fnr averting. ''I'm going to ask the president to be a,serious on th e budg et as we've been on Bosnia," he said.
