GOP stratcgtsls sec vos1ons of sugarplums - maJonty control of Congress. wtnnmg back the WhtiC House - tf they can umte tradtuonal Republicans, Chnstian acuvists and people who voted for Perot m the last prcs1dent1al elccuon It's an unruly crowd For starters, polls show two-thtrds of Perot voters suppon abortion nghts, but the rellg10us nght and other soctal conserva· uvcs have kept the Republican Party firmly commttted to outlawmg aboruon. The d1ffcrent facttons have different pnonttes as well. Many Chnsttan acttvtsts are ammated by soctal 1ssues such as abor· uon school prayer and gay nghts. The 20 mtlhon voters Perot drew tn 1992 wanted to reduce the defictl and "fix" government TradtUonal Republicans stress themes such as lower taxes and less government. GOP strategtsts nevertheles s see common ground among the three groups. The potenual unifying forces they ctte tnclude. • Dtstaste for Pres1dent Clmton. In a June 18-20 poll conducted by Republican Bill Mcinturff, 29 percent of Perot voters rated Clmton favor· ably. Twice that percentage gave hun unfavorable rev1ews. However, they can be fickle; some swmg back to Clmton 's comer after btg v1ctones such as trade or budget agreements. . . , Opposition to Clmton's health-care reform plan. Republicans thmk tt gtvcs government too big a role, a view shared by many Perot supponers. Perot htmsclf has pomed up $1 mil11on for an hour·long Republican TV show on health reform . Democrats contend they're the only ones offenng secunly to the squeezed middle class, but their argument hasn't caught on yet • An accountabtltty agenda. Pollster Frank Luntz , a Republican who worked fo r Perot, recommends the GOP push term hmtts, recall _authonty, a 1o percent congressiOnal pay cut, a 50 percent cut tn congress tOnal ume 10 sess1on, a huge federal tax cut and shifting of welfare, housmg, health and food stamp responstbthUes to the states. • Fear of the future. A strong message about declining llvtng standards, the dtsmtegrauon of soc1ety and the breakup of the famtly "wtll put Perot voters and Chrtstian conservauves on the streets together campargmng for the same purpose." Luntz satd recently. • Altenauon. "The Perot people and the Chrisuan folks share a sense of being ignored vo1ces." sa1d GOP pollster Davtd Hill. He satd Republt· cans can win them over by mcludmg them. Rcpubhcan Nauonal Commtuce Chairman Haley Barbour took a big step last week when he accepted Perot's offer of TV money, tymg hts party to the errauc Dallas bllllomure and h1s ideas on health-care reform. Barbour also ts bemg sohcttous of his right flank . In a five-page memo last week he accused Clinton, consultant Paul Begala and other Democrats of rchgtous bigotry. .

"" Changing face of our classrooms Technology could transform Amcnca's lagging education sys· tern , yet of all institutions in the country, the schools are among the most technologically backward. This year, at long last, Congress is talong steps to tmprove things. but wtth much less money than is needed Thanks to a handful of legislators, Congress ts bemg pushed to guarantee schools a favored place on the future "informatton super· highway" and to upgrade teacher training, perhaps the most formidable hurdle to the full realization of technological potential. In the Clinton administration, Education Secretary Richard Riley and Vice President AI Gore are technology enthusiasts, but mak.ing the schools fully modem ts not a top budget priority_ Although most adult workers today have a computer etther on their desks or somewhere nearby, the basic schoolroom s~ll fcalures a teacher talking to desk-bound students, referring to a textbook and wnung on a blackboard. Almost every school today docs have a computer. but on average I4 students share one machine, where· as tn pnvate bustness. there's a computer for every five workers, accordmg to the survey fmn Quahty Educauon Data. What's more, accordmg to a report by MacWorld magazine, most school computers are old and slow, and often are stored in closets because teachers haven't been tramed to usc them. And only 2 percent of classrooms arc cqu1pped wtlh a phone jack, maktng tl 1mposstble for them to hnk up with Morton Kondracke outs1de world. If the hardware IS lacking, the potential isn't. Computers, CDROMs. satclhtes and cable TV. the Internet, and mtcractive multimedta networks could make education exc1ting for a generation of kids already used to vidoo ancadcs, Nintendo and VCRs they can program better than their parents. Dazzling "edutainment" software already exists for converting reading, math, geography and other subjects into absorbtng games. Mostly, though, they arc ava1lable in computer stores, not in schools. Examples include "Dance of the Planets," whtch simulates the whirling solar system and allows students to see the sky from any planet or moon in it, and "Math Blaster," a "S1ar Wars" -style video game requiring players to solve math problems in order to deslroy invaders. Other programs cited in a recent Business Wetk cover story include ''Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?" in whtch players learn geography while chasing criminals around the world, and "Reader Rabbit,·' a phonics-based game for pre-schoolers. Encyclopedias now are available on CD-ROM, and opportunities exist- at least theoretically- for students in rural areas or inner ctties to be lllught by and ask questions of superior teachers anywhere in the country. To realize the potential of the technology, however. requires money for hardware, software, teacher tratnmg and curriculum development. Unfortunately, it's metal detectors, not sophisticated computers, that top the most-needcd lists of many schools. That points to the obvious fact that there's a huge gap between rich and poor in the availability of technology even as high-tech profi. ciency becomes the key to the future U.S. economy. But finally, Congress is acUng. Just prior to the Fourth of July recess; the House passed legislauon sponsored by Rep. Edward Markey, D-Mass., to conduct a national survey o( schooltechnology needs and to mandate that the Federal Communications Commission set rules and transmission rates enabling schools to access the information superhighway at low cost. If his bill ts passed mto law, Markey says the proviswns will inspire software companies to invest huge amounts of money in "edutamment." However, in the Senate, the Commerce committee has yet to marie up a telocommunications bill. As part of the Goals 2000 Edu· cation Act passed this year. Congress set up an Office of Edu- catton Technology m the Depart· ment of EducatiOn, but eliminated t11e S 10 million originally proposed by Sen. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., to fund tl. Education Secretary Riley volunteered $500,000 out of his budget to get the office started. Another Bingaman provtsion gtves each state at least $75,000 to plan technology upgrades. Other funds wtll come from the National Telecommunications Informauon Admm1stratton, wh1ch is givmg out $26 million in match· ing funds this year to public institu· lions (including but not limited to schools) for computer networking applications. And more technology pro visions are included in the Elemen· tary and Secondary Education Act reauthorization, which passed the House in March and is scheduled for Senate debate soon. Rep. Tom Sawyer, D-Ohio, sponsored an amendment authorizing $300 million for education lechnology. but only $20 mtllion ended up in lhe House version. In the Senate. Bingaman is pushing for $312 million, especially (or disadvantaged schools, but his staff expects no more than $50 million m the final bill. The lesson here seems to be that American lcids and htgh·tech industries are ready to fly into cyberspace, but their teachers and Congress - are just crawling. (Morton Kondracke is execulive editor or Roll Call, the news· paper of Capitol Hill.) IND Ivy M. Sleeth leo The caller was indignant. "Why," she asked me, during a CSPAN caU·in show, "are the media so hard on Prestdent Clinton?'' Her scnuments were echoed by several other viewers, who were persuaded that the president's low standing in the polls is a direct result of a smear campaign waged by right-wtng "Clinton-haters" and abetted by journalists like yours truly. It is understandable that those blindly loyal to the president want to believe this fiction. Butlhe reality is that the president's abysmally low approval rating is auributable to his unpopular domestic policies, his unsteady hand in foreign affairs and lingering questions about his character in the wake of lhe Whitewater and Paula Jones scandals. It would be unfair to declare the Clinton presidency a failure after only 17 months. But the president's accomplishments - and he certatnly has had a few - are outweighed by his shortcomings, at least in the minds oC many Americans. It must be remembered that Clinton captured the White House wtth only 43 percent of the popular vote. That means that the maJority of the electorate would have preferred someone else in the Oval Joseph Perkins Office. _ Clinton mtght have broadened hts base of support by pursumg moderate to conservative polictes that appealed to the majority of the population. But, instead, he has spent the first year and a half of his presidency playing to the liberal minority of the electorate. The Clinton supporters ask: "Isn't there anythinjl at all the president has done since he took office that is supported by the conservatives who otherwise disagree with his policies?" Why yes, there is. In fact, the president has made a few moves that have won high marks from lhe loyal opposition. For instance, the Qne good thing to come out of the Clinton budget package last year was a 30 percent expansion of the earned income lax credit program. The credit is largeted to Ameri- ca's worlcing poor parents, who toil in full-time jobs, but cam too little income to raise their families above the poverty line. The credit reduces or eliminates the income lax burden on families bringing home less than $25300 a year. The biggest beneficiaries are !hose with annual earnings between $7,750 and $11,000, who arc eligible for a credit of $2,528 (for a famtly of four) this year. The credit mcreases to $3,370 by 1996. The heautv of the earned income tax credit is that it rewards poor Americans for worlting, unlike lhe present welfare system. Families fi!ing for the credit can receive their paymenrs m a lump sum after the lax deadline or can arrange wilh lheir employers to have a portion of it added monthly to their pay· chocks. The president has been solid on free trade. Indeed, he scored the most impressive po)ilical victory of his presidency in lilst year's debate on the Nolth American Free Trade Agreement. He joined forces with conservative Republicans - hat's right - to pull out a winning vote in Congress, when it aJ!PWed that J the protectionists might very well kill the trade pact. The president made a forceful and persuasive case for the benefits of NAFTA. And the early results have proven him correct. For the ftrst quarter of this year. American companies shipped a record $l1.8 billion in goods and services to Mexico, while our neighbors to the south shipped a record $11.2 billion worth of products across the border. As the president predicted, NAFTA has been a wm-win (XOIIOsition for both the United States and Mexico. One or the bi~gest fears that many conservatives had about Clinton was that he would stock the Supreme Court with liberal jurists who would crusade from the bencb. But in Ruth Bader Ginsburg and, now, Stephen Breyer, lhe president has selected judges who are models of restraint. Josepb Perkins is a columnist ror The San Diego Union· Tri· bune.

Judge may impose labor pact on NBA, players' association By CHRIS SHERIDAN NE W YORK (AP) - The NBA and the Players Association, unable to reach a collective bargaining agreement, arc faced with the posstbility of having a labor agreement imposcd by a federal judge. Both sides were scheduled to be in coun today before U.S. District Judgc Kevin Duffy, who promised last week to hold a seven-hour tnal ending in an imposed seulement Duffy advised the league and the players last fnday to negouatc a new agreement over the weekend. The sides met Monday, but the 1mpasse was not resolved. The two sides are at odds over the continuation of the salary cap, the colle11e draft and free agency. The prev1ous collective bargaining agreement expired last month. Monday's meeting was the third between the two sides this year and the first since both sides announced their positions at a bargaining session in Portland, Ore ., '" early May. . Neither side would charactenzc Monday's di sc uss ion s or give details of what transpired. " Nothing was resolved. We're going LO coun,'' NBA spokesman Jan Hubbard said. "We have to go to trial t.omorrow. so we're not going to comment on it at all," NBA Players Association director Charles Grantham said. The league and the player~· umon have filed lawsuits against eac h other. The NBA wants the sa lary cap, the draft and the rightof-rust-refusal rules to be declared legal, while the players association has charged violations of antitrust law. A temporary restraining order was issued after the playoffs. barring any signings until the matter comes up in court. The order was to have expired last friday, but Duffy extended it Ul)til today. S1mi Jar suits were filed in I 976, 1983 and 1988, the last of which left the draft reduced to two rounds. If Duffy rules that the salary cap and draft arc illegal, all the rookies drafted two weeks ago will become unre stricted frce agents and there will be no limit on what teams can offer prospective signees. Raveling feels 'stay at USC' tidal wave Dy KEN PETERS IRVINE. Calif. (AP) 1'\- George Raveling seemed overcome by the response to the fact that he might be leaving Southern Cal. He noted that a number of prominent people encouraged him to stay , and that messages have piled both on his answering machine at home and at the hotel where he was staying after it · became known that he was considering becoming lhe Seton HaD basketball coach. Then there was the kid. "Talk about emotional, at a game we played against the Lakers several nights ago, a kid walked up to me and handed me a note. It said, 'Coach Rav. don't leave,"' Raveling said Monday in announcing that he was tllming down the Sewn Hall job to remain at USC. There apparently were a lot of '~'!ctors inv~lved in. his decision, ith Ravclmg saymg at a news nference that he realized ''how much I love SC, and what it means to me to coach · re and to be able to live in Los Angeles." He downplayed a reported rift with Southern Cal athletic director ·• Mike Garreu. saying lhat one thing he has learned during his years of coaching is that you have to learn to work with a variety of people. Sewn Hall officials would not comment on Raveling's decision. The search for a coach continues , said Seton Hall spokesman John Wooding, noting that athletic director Larry Keating has insisted he won't have anything to say until a coach is hired. Raveling said that, despite some reports, he did not use the offer from Seton HaU to demand a beucr deal with USC, wbere his contract has two years remaining. Raveling said he had spoken with Southern Cal president Steven B. Sample, but that conversation was confiden- · tial. Raveling, 57, reportedly mel with Keating last Wednesday to discuss the opening created after PJ . Carlesimo lei\ to take over as coach of the NBA 's Portland Trail Blazers. Raveling has a 336-292 record in 22 years as a college head coach. He has a 115-118 record in eight seasons at USC.

''I'm going to be in left field, on the warning track with my back up againsl the wall," Bonds said. "Man. these guys hit them where they've never hit them before."

What a season. No wonder they call it The Show. Out how long will the show go on'! \:. For all of the excitement, highfive slapping and camaraderie at this All-Star game, there's a trou bled tension, and it has nothing to do with balls and strike s. And everything to do with strikes. Ju st across Pittsburgh' s three rivers, not far from where Gr iffey and Thomas put on a monstrous and momentous home run duel Monday, the players union pon dered the first Jenglhy post-Ail -Swr g;~ m c shutdown in history. Just like a rocket-launched Griflcy homer, wtll thi s scawn soon be going, going, go ne? " It 's an ugl y situation, and it's on e ve rybody's mind ," Giants re liever Rod Bed said . " It' s just ktnd of looming." The union's exec uti vc board has the authorization to call a strike at any time. The most likely scenario. a mid-August or early September stnkc, probably would force a season-e nding shutdown and the first autumn without a World Series in 90 years. The players and owners seem so far apart - the players refusing to even consider a salary cap, the uni fied owners intent on reforming the game's finances - that a seasonsaving se nl cmc nt hard ly see ms ross tble ''I'm having a decent year. Yw think I want to go on str ike~" the Padres' Tony Gwynn said. "But some things arc more important." This ominous talk couldn 't come al a worse time for baseball just when America sinks back m iLl recliner on a jewel of a July night for a one-night panacea for all of baseball's troubles . The AL, winner of the last six All-Star games, looks as all-powerful and as awe-inspiring as the NL powerhouse that once won 19 of 20 games. Only th e names hav e changed - instead of Mays, Aaron and Clemente , they 're Griffey Jr., Thomas and Ripkcn . The AL has won seven of the last eig ht games, outscoring the outgunned NL 22-9 in the last two . Thoma s and Griffey,_ gave NL pitchers a menacing preview of what might be coming, combin ing for eight homers measuring longer than 450 feet in Monday 's home run derby. " I watch that, and I don't c vcn know why we pitcher s arc even here." the Royals' David Cone said. Still, NL starter Greg Maddux (11-5, 1.80 ERA) seems almo st eager to sec if he can handle thts modem-day murderers' row - the lowest average (.270) in th e AL lineup belongs tb Joe Caner, and he has 80 RBis. Of course, Hou ston' s Doug Drabek obse rves the NL's lineup that confronts AL star Jcr Jimm y Key (13-2) of the New York Yan kees isn't exac tly skid row. "They can hit a homer at any time - No .

(AP) Eckardt receives 18-month sentence in Kerrigan assault By BOB IIAUM PORTLAND , Ore. (AP) Even the judge called Shawn Eckardt "stupid." Eckardt, perhaps the most lampooned member of the infamous gang that engineered lhe attack on figure skater Nancy Kerrigan, is finally behind bars for his role in the crime. With his head nearly shaved, the 3I0-pound would-be bodyguard to Tonya Harding stood before a judge to hear his sentence Monday. _He-did not go quietly _ The sentence, 18 months in prison, was worked out as part of Eckardt's agreement to plead guilty to racketeering more than two months ago. . But Eckardt, who turns 27 next Monday, wanted to put on witnesses to testify in his behalf anyway. He wanted the sentencing put off for two weeks until his psychologist returned to Portland. He wanted to hear from the FBI, the Multnotllah County sheriffs office and the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms . When his lawyer was reluctant to do so, Eckardt rued him. Circuit Judge Philip Abraham watched and listened, then wondered if Eckardt understood the seriousness of his crime. "Mr. Eckardt, you have become a very well-known person,:' Abraham said. "There are adjecuvcs that can be added to your name, something like infamous, notorious, greedy, dishonest, even stupid." Eckardt entered his plea on May attorneys, then let the defendant 3, the same day co-defendants make a statement. Shane Stant and Derrick Smith pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit second-degree assault. They and Harding's ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly, have admitted they conspired to injure Kerrigan to knock her out of the U.S. figure Skating Championships in Detroit. The plan was to clear lhc way for 1-farding to win the championship and make the Olympic team. Eckardt told his cohorts he intended to make big money running a bodyguard service for skaters worried about their safety. Kerrigan was struck above the Tight knee with a police baton on Jan. 6 in Detroit. Two days later, with Kerrigan out of the competition, Harding won the title and went on to finish eighth in the Olympics. Two weeks ago, Harding was stripped of her title by the U.S. Figure Skating Association. Stant, the hit man, and Smith, his uncle who drove the getaway car, began their I 8-month prison sentences immediately after entering their pleas. The case will finally come to a conclusion Wednesday when Gillooly is sentenced. He has pleaded guilty to racketeering in exchange for a two-year prison sentence and a $100,000 fine. But Gillooly's attorney has indicated that sentence might change. Abraham rejected Eckardt's motion to delay sentencing and reluctantly allowed him to switch Eckardt didn't mention Kerrigan . Instead. he turned his wrath on Norm Frink, who negotiated a deal that allowed Harding to stay out of jail in exchange for a guilty plea to conspiracy to hinder prosccutiOfl.. "Throu~hout this entire investigation, it IS my .opinion that this case, at least the prosecution, has been used as a political football"by the district attorney's office," Eckardt said. "Instead of the fair and impartial administration of justice , it has been used in the media and in the political realm to funhcr the career of Norman Frink." Eckardt's new attorney, Brad Grove. said his client was most upset with the treatment given Harding, who was placed on three years' probation and ordered w pay $160,000. . Frink. the Multnomah County chief deputy district attorney, was prosecuting a murder case and wasn't in Abraham's courtroom. When told of Eckardt's remarks later, Frink laughed heanily, then said he didn't want to dignify the comments with a reply . Eckardt, who will be eligible for parole in just over 14 monlhs under Oregon sentencing guidelines, decided last week to fire attorney Mark McKnight, but needed Abraham's permission. Abraham said ·changing attorneys at such a late stage was a bad idea. No testimony would alter the sentence, the judge said. He added that Eckardt should be grateful to McKnight for negotiating the deal.

"But we want no illusions," he said.

Proper feeding and exercise controls thatsame as it docs for us. •Myth Two: Every female cat/dog, for health or psychological reasons, should have one hiler berorc she has the operation.

How or why some of these same people justify the rights or necessity of males-feline and canine-to breed with everything that moves is beyond the scope of this column. Again, not breeding does nothing to impair any ' animals' health or psychological makeup. •Myth Three: It will change his or her personality, disposition or level of intelligence. Cats' personalities do not dcvcl· op fully until they arc about a year; for dogs it is one or two years. If there is a personality change in the animal, it would have occurred without surgery. What you will have is an animal untroubled by estrus, or heat, periods or the scent of a female in heat and fewer possibilities of uterine or testicular tumor as he or she ageswith a significant decrease in the incidence of mammary gland cancer in females. Dogs go into heat semiannually and cats may experi· cnce several heats over the course or a year-six is not unheard of.

By BARRY SCHWEID AP Diplomatk: Writer BERLIN - President Clinton today called a united Europe "our best partner " for prosperity and peace for the 21st century as he enthusiasttcally embraced this once-divided city as modem Europe's . vital center. At a news conference at the Reichstag, the restored parliament building the Nazis burned in 1933, Clinton also said it was time for the United States and its European allies to "put some meat on the bones of our effons" to better coordinate policies_ As an example, Clinton announced the formation of two U.S.-European task forces - one to recommend ways to strengthen ties with the new democracies of eastern and central Europe and the ot.her to coordinate the fight against organized crime. drug trafficking and money laundering. These are problems that "know no borders," Clinton said. · Clinton, the first U.S. president to visit reunited Berlin, met at the Reichstag with Gennan Chancellor Helmut Kohl, Speaker of Parliament Rita Sussmuth, and European Commission President Jacques Delors. Later, he was to take anot.her historic step, becoming the first U.S. president since before the Cold War to enter what had been the eastern, Communist sector .· of the city. · "I believe our best partner as we look towards the 21st century for prosperity and for peace is a Europe " united in democracy and free markets in common l security," Clinton said at his joint news conference : with Kohl and Delors. , Kohl, at the news conference from a room in the ~ Reichstag, noted !.hat one needed to "just look out •,the window" to see signs of German unity. The : building is adjacent to what had been the Berlin : Wall. Clinton is t.he first American president since Harry. ; Truman in 1945 to visit the eastern part of the city. ; Clintoo was asked at the Reichstag news confer' ence if Poland would become the first fonncr Wari saw Pact nation t,.o be formally admiued to NATO.
