Since then the trustees have had to develop new assumptions based on recent experience and emerging demographic and economic trends. These assumptions are reflected in the latest report which predicted that the program would be in need of additional funds to pay benefits on time after 2029. Additional citizen's input into the planning and oversight process is provided by the Social Security Advisory Council. This is a panel of 12 experts in public and private pension systems appointed every four years to examine issues affecting the Social Security system. Members were recently named to a new council and the council was charged with developing recommendations to improve the long· range financing of the Social Security program. While the trustees board reviews the short and long range financing of the program, the advisory council review is broader and covers the e~tent to which the program meets the needs of the American people. It makes recommendations that the Retirement planning Here's a question from Social Security. When you retire, how much of your in co me can you e~pect Social Security to replace? Well, if you're an average wage ea rner, Social Security will replace about 42 percent of your pre-retirement tncome. That means that you 'II have to rely on savings and invesunents to make up the difference. That's why it's important to start planning for your retirement while you're still young and have time on your side. Congress uses as a basis for legislation. Past advisory council recommendations have led to the Medicare program, the annual cost-of-living increases that keeps beneficiaries from being di sad· vantaged by inflation, and changes in the trustees' financial review of the programs. Congress' oversight role is handled primarily through the House Ways and Means Committee and the Senate Finance Com· mittee. These committees hold hearings as required on Social Security matters. Other commit· tees involved in Social Security issues include the Senate's Special Committee on Aging, the Senate Committee on Labor and Human Resources, and the House Committee on Education and Labor. Recent polls report that only 30 percent of the people believe that Social Security will be around when they are ready to retire, although more than 80 per· cent support the program. When you consider the kind of plan· ning, oversight and monitoring that goes into the Social Security system, the belief that Social Security will not be here when today's workers are ready to retire is clearly not a well-founded perception. Public support of the program reflects the fact that it is grounded in the values of the country and the aspirations a[ld everyday concerns of its people. Public fears reflect a lack of understanding of how the programs work to pay benefits now and in the future. · It's important that you understand the public dialogue that is taking place on Social Security so that you can participate in it effectively through your Congressional representatives. Yes, you should be concerned about Social Security, but no, you should not be fearful that it's not going to be there when you retire. The debate is about how we arc going to meet the challenge of change, not whether or not we will.

It marked the third straight month that the Labor Department's close! y watched Consumer Price Index has posted a 0.3 percent advance. Through the first eight months of this year, consumer inflation has been rising at an annual rate of just 2.9 percent, little changed from last year's modest 2.7 percent gain. Today"s news was likely to calm somewhat inflation jitters on Wall Street following a worrisome report last Friday on wholesale prices that caused a steep sell-off in stock and bond markets. The consumer price inde~ is considered a broader gauge of inOation because it covers services, which are not included in the wholesale price report. Still. analysts said that the wholesale price report cannot be totally discounted because it was detecting commodity price pressures which in coming months could push consumer inflation higher. They said it remained an open question whether the Federal Reserve would feel it necessary to move at its Sept. 27 meeting to boost interest rates for a sixth time this year. For August, energy prices were up 1.4 percent as prices at the gasoline pump rose 3. 7 percent, their biggest jump since a 4.3 percent increase last October. Home heating oil was up a more modest 0.1 percent, rates on home electricity use rose by 0.3 percent and natural gas prices actually feU by 0.1 percenL Food costs rose 0.3 percent but four-fifths of that increase reOectcd the second consecutive monthly jump in coffee prices, which rose 22 percent in August after posting a record 22.4 percent rise in July.

The government credited end-of-season sales along with smaller-than-normal price hikes for fall and winter clothing for the price decline. Niles teachers return to work NILES, Ohio (AP)- A striking teachers' union has approved a three-year contract with the city school district. Teachers returned to work this morning. Diana Maselli, a spokeswoman for the Niles Classroom Teachers Association, said Monday night that 148 members of the 175-member Niles Classroom Teachers Association voted to approve the contract. Only eight of the 156 members who attended the Monday night meeting voted against the contract, she said. "We're very happy with the total package," said Ms. Maselli. "It was a very simple contract, and it was just frustrating that it took nine strike days before it could be approved." School board president William K. Allen said Mooday night that he was very happy with the conb'act and with the fact that schools would open. "I think the contract is a fair and equitable one for taxpayeB, the board and the NcrA," Allen said. The cpntract 'includes a wage freeze the first year, a 2 percent nlise the second year and S percent the third year, Ms. Maselli said. The school board earlier prqposed a wage freeze the fust two years and a 6.S percent raise in the third year of the contract. The union wanted a 2 percent increase the first year, 3 percent the second year and S ~t the third year. The strtke began Aug. 29 and delayed the opening of schools. Tentative agreement on the contract was reached late Sunday. • I Section, 10 P•geo 35 cent. A Muttimodlotnc.

Hearing scheduled for local calling extension in Mason A public hearing has been set by the Public Service Commission of West Virginia on requests from telephone subscribers to extend the local calling area in the Mason and New Haven exchanges to the Middleport-Pomeroy area of Ohio. The hearing is scheduled for the Mason City Building Thursday, Oct. 13, 7 p.m. to determine the community of interest between the Bell Atlantic-West Virginia, Inc. Mason exchange and Citizens Telcom's New Haven exchange, on the one hand, and the Pomeroy, Ohio exchange of GTE North, on the other hand, plus the cost of the two defendants of establishing the service between those exchanges. In 1992. a formal complaint was filed with the commission by the Town of Mason, requesting Bell Atlantic and Citizens Telcom to take measures to eliminate long distance charges between Mason and the Middleport-Pomeroy area. Former Mason Mayor George Nichols was instrumental in initiating the procedures, with assistance from both former Middleport Mayor Fred Hoffman and former Pomeroy Mayor Bruce Reed. PSC Chief Adminisb'ative Law Judge Melissa K. Marland said she hopes PSC staff will lend considerable assistance to the West Virginia communities involved in these cases, both in constructing their cases and presenting those cases at hearing, in light of the scrutiny which will likely be applied to any finding by the commission that a sufficient community of interest e~ists between the West Virginia e~changcs on the one hand, and the out-of-state exchanges on the other hand. Marland also said that the community of interest hearings are the appropriate forum for the two telephone companies involved to produce testimony and evidence on the cost of expanding and constructing facilities to provide the service request.

Davis-Quickel Insurance of Pomeroy and the village agreed to a one-year-contract that will not reduce the employees' benefits while saving the village about $17,000 a year, Horton said. The villagc paid about $88,200 a year for its previous insurance, provided by a pool of Ohio government that has gone under due to theft by admi ni strators , Horton said. The Ohio Government Benefits Plan was designed for larger emplo yers than the village's 21 employees, he added. Village council removed the employees fro m this plan in the middle of August. "The company we went with went belly up. The old insurance gave out on Aug. 31 and the new went in Sept. 1," Horton said. He said he appreciated the hours of meetings co unci l members attended to resolve the situation. "We've been really working hard on this." Under the new plan - which will cost $70,356.48 a year - the employees will have a $200 deductible and 80/20 traditional insurance, said Bill Quickel of Davis-Quickcllnsurance. "''m tickled to death we got it approved," Quickel said. The plan is operated under the community Blue Cross/Riuc Shield. "One fri ll is if they've met their deductible the community mutual will credit them for it," Qutckel said. This could save each village emp loyee from paying the deductible again - or about $300 if they fill the paperwork out The village was wise to get out of the pooled insurance because state law does not require the pools to keep an adequate reserve of money for worst-case scenarios, he added. In surance policies need a sizable "safety net". . "It was operated outside of traditional insurance," Quickel said. The original administrator of the insurance group allegedly stole from the fund and reportedly ned the country, Council President Bob Gilmore said. At the end of Jul y, the village had a premium balance of S29,993.77 in the account with claims outstandtng in July and August outstanding, Horton had said in a previous interview with The Daily Sentinel. uwc can get out when we're so: vent.

Persons caught _in Alabama By GEORGE ABATE Sentinel News Starr ONEONTA, Ala. - A Meigs County fugitive with a history of eluding and escaping from Ohio and West Virginia law enforcement was arrested in a rural Alabama County early Saturday morning following a traffic stop, according to Meigs County Prosecutor John Lentes. David M. Persons, 31, who has addresses in West Columbia, W.Va., and Long Bottom, is currently being held on a $1 million bond in the Blount County Jail on akohol-relatcd charges and a series of other misdemeanor charges, according to a Blount County Sheriffs Department spokesman. The spokesman would not specify the charges. Blount County is a north -central Alabama county of about 41,000 residents. Persons was arrested with two other Meigs County men - one of whom is wanted in Pickaway County, Lentes said. At the time of the arrest, Persons was using the alias "Christopher Ryan Chambers."

The district needs workers and donations, since no tax money can be spent on the levy effort, Minard said. The two-year, 4.4-mill renewal levy will appear on the ballot this November raising $154,689, Minard said. The current levy which is 5 mills - will be rolled back to generate the same sum. The district lost nearly $100,000 this year due to open enrollment. "We have to work for everything we get. The last election passed, by only I percent," Minard said. "Generally, renewal levels are run low-key. It's not as intense as going after a new levy." In a previous meeting, the group named David Weeks chainnan.

It isn't happening with consumer installment debt, which used to get you a tax deduction for interest paid.

The proposal, being worked on by Senate Democratic liberals with input from Democratic and GOP moderates, would combine simple insurance reforms (which conservatives like) with "Kidcare" subsidies to guarantee insurance to all children under age 18. The proposal also is designed to atlract moderates by granting selfemployed persons a full tax deduction for tllcir health insurance premiums and win liberal support by creating a block grant to states to set up borne care services for the disabled and aged. Even if the plan, or one lilce it, gets bogged down in late-session partisan and parliamentary maneuvering this year - as seems all too possible - it may provide a vehicle for passing a consensus package next year. The new plan is the work of liberal Sens. Harris Wofford (D-Pa.), Tom Harlcin (D-Iowa), Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and Jay Rockefeller (DW.Va.), whose staffs won't say which moderates their bosses are worlcing with, although Sen. Nancy Kassebaum (R-Kan.) is a lilcely bet.

A report issued by the Ohio Wetlands Task Force.- wtth tts goal of restoring 400,000 acres of wetlands by 2010 - ts makmg many farmers a little uncomfortable. . . Farmers believe tllere already are too many resuncttons on the uses of land classified as '·'wetlands." And any more government regulauons would be hazardous to agriculture. . The loss of wetlands has been caused by factors other than farmmg. Tens of thousands of acres of wetlands have been drained and developed into industrial paries and housing subdivisions. Therefore, pressure should not be ~laced solely on farmers, who are far from being the prime cause of destroymg natural areas m Ohto. A settlement between nature and agnculture, which will benefit. both, is out tllere. But it needs to involve compromise - and the mcluston of those developing new industry and housing.

Jon Jacobs, Meigs County Health Department admini strator, reported tllat the commiucc on subdivision regulation s has approved two areas. One is in Scipio Town ship called "Rolling Meadows" with 19 lots being developed by Patrick Lawson along County Road 55 and State Route 143. The second is in Columbia Township and includes 12lots known as "Susan's Subdivision". A report on a proposed regional jail for Meigs, Galha, Jackson and Vinton Counttes was g1ven by Lcntes and Hoffman with both noting that while the construction would be 100 percent state funded , the startup and maintenance money would have to come from the counties. Lentes said that he is hopeful that if fundmg for a regional jail is approved , that it will be built in Meigs County. The inadequacy of the current jatl was noted by the commission. In reply to the question of prisoners paying their cost of mcarceratiun, Lentes said that in Judge Patrick O'Brien's coun !!lose who are sentenced and are not indigent are charged $30 a day . The money is held in a jail fund by Judg e O'Brien, he said. The status of tile Tuppers-Plains Regional Sewer Dis\fict was discussed and Jacobs said that it is "definitely a go, with a bit of a time problem". Lcnt.es said that one of the next steps will be to apply for a $500,000 grant next year. He talked about the cost per household which is now estimated to be above tile targeted $29 a month but said tllat figure should be attainable if the gram is received. Lentes pr~ ­ dicted tllat once the system ts m place in Tuppers Plains, !!len development will follow . Cindy Oliveri reported that plans are being completed for Showcase, Oct. 8 and 9, to be held at the Rock Springs Fairgrounds. She said that there has been a good response from local people and tllat final activities will be announced soon. She also announced that on Sept 20 and 22 a strategic planning specialist from Ohio State Umversity, Extension Service, will be in Meigs County to work wllh the commission. Recreation and tourism reports were given by Mary Powell, Park District director, who tallced about activities of the summer including the State Fair, Buffington Island activities, and the soccer program being organized. She said that two charter bus companies have made inquiries about bringing people into the county in 1995 for various activities. The recreation/tourism director said that last week a group of 23 hilcers from the Cleveland Hiking Club and an Airstream group were in the county and both were "delighted" with what !.hey saw. As for the county's exhibit at the Ohio State Fair, Powell said that the volunteers this year are ccming up with ideas about making it "bigger and better" next year. She noted that Sunday's soccer clinic auracted 75 elementary school boys and girls and said the need now is for adult coaches. Games will be held into early November, PoweU said. The low rate of crime in Meigs County an~ programs which might serve as cnme deterrents were also discussed during the meeting. The current officers were reelected for the 1994-95 year fol lowing a report from Jacobs of tile nominating committee. They are Lentes, chairman; Jacobs, frrst vtce chainnan; Don Poole, second vice chainnan; and Howard Frank, treasurer. Brian Reed who has been serving as secretary resigned to return to college.

He was captured soon after in Parkersburg and was released by authorities, pending an extradition hearing. But he did not appear for th1s hearing, according to Meigs County Sheriff James Soulsby. In July, he escaped into the Mason County woods after a West Virginia trooper arrested him, Soulsby said. At that time, the charges were dropped because he was still set to appear for a hearing later. Persons was then arrested again after he did not appear for an August hearing - leading to the cornfield chase, Lent.es said. Meigs County autllorities could have Persons in their custody within a day if he waives extradition, Lentes added. If he does not waive extradition, a governor's warrant will have to be sent to !.he Alabama governor to get approval to have him released - which could talt:e 45 days at least, he added. Lcntes srud he did not know if feJeral charges could be filed since contraband could have been taken between states.

The Eagles were sensational for three quarters Monday night, then held on for a 30-22 victory that never shou ld have been so close. Without tlle superb work of Randall Cunnin gham in the first half. the y might not h_!!.ve broken a seven-game Iosmg sui ng agai nst Chicago. C unningham threw for three first -half touchdowns and had his second successive 300-yard passing performance . Instead of getting a well-earned rest in the fourth quarter, though, he had to come back with two key completions on Philadelphia's final series to clinch it. "I wasn't worried," said Cunningham, who was 24-for-36 for 3 11 yards, including 250 yards in the openin~ half. " You've got to have faith.' The Eagles had faith and every· thing else going for them for 45 minutes. Cunningham hit Calvin William s for touchdowns of nine and 14 yards and Maurice Johnson for a seven-yard score and Eddie Murray kicked the first of his three field goals for a 24-0 halftime edge. Murray added two field goals in the third period. "It was pretty obvious in all areas. Philadelphia made tlle plays and we didn ' t," sa1d Bears coach Dave Wannstcdt, whose defense gave up more than two touchdowns for the first time in h1s 18-ga me regime. "We felt we were ready to play, but we didn't do it. We had plenty of opportun ities. but we just were out of sync h." Philadelphia kept the Bears punchlcss until the fo urth quarter, with newcomers William Fuller (two sacks), Bun Grossman (one) and Greg Jackson (an interception and 31-yard return) making the big plays. Then, sudde nly, second-year receiver Curtis Conway went wild. Co nway , who finished with seven catches for 148 yards, had a 22-yard touchdown catch and a 75yard bomb, plus a twp-point conversion recep tion . When Marv Cook scored on a 16-yarder with 3:35 remaining, th e Bears stunningly were within eight points. C unningham completed two more passes on the Eagle s' final series, enabling Philadelphia to run out the clock. "We were able to play smart, and if we would have played sman last week, we wouldn't have been in the situation that we were in," Cunningham said of an opening loss to the New York Giants. "It's a tough league, and a lot of teams are going to be 8-8 this year. Hopefully, we can be one of the teams that has a better record than that. " If they repeat their performance early in Monday night's game, ille Eagles can _tll ink about a lot more Warren Local sextet beats Eastern in two games Warren Local defeated Eastern 15-13 , 15- 10 in a recent varsity volleyball match, dropping Eastern to 1-3 overall.

'.,,J ~ NEW YORK (AP) - The unthinkable now appears inevitable. The World Series is likely to be canceled by Wednesday. " We're either very close to the end or within a day or two,'' acting commissioner Bud Selig said Monday night when he was interviewed at halftime on ABC's "Monday Night Football." Negotiators on both sides said there was little hope for an agreement that would allow tlle season to resume. "It's unreal. I can't believe it," Atlanta Bmves president Stan Kasten said. " We're about to lose tllc World Series." Selig, during a conference call witll reporters, repeated an earlier state ment that team s would not play the postseason unless tlle regular seaso n was resum ed. That means the World Series would be wiped out for the first time in 90 years. "That would be an amazing day, the day that there was no World Series," Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Ore! Hershiser said tifter the executive board of tlle Major League Baseball Players Association met for about 4 1/2 hours. . Selig announced Sept. 2 the deadline for making a decision on the season- and the World Series - would be Sepl 9. Eugene Orza, th e union's No . 2 official, said Monday he thinks the sides have until Sept. 15-17 to reach an agreement that would allow regular-seaso n games to resume and until "eight or nine days after that" to save the World Series. "I can't give you a specific date because I don 't know myself," Selig said. "We're just going to play it day by day." He said there was no harm in delaying a decision. "It's sort of like talcing chicken so up when you have a cold ," he said. "Nothing bad can come from it. You keep Uying because yo u hope there's some triggering mech anism that nobody 's though t about." But even Selig admitted , "We know it's a longshoL" Players said they were prepared for Selig to say the season is over. "Give n the way things have gone, I tllmk it's just a matter of t1me before M~ .. Se lig makes his announcement, Pau l Molitor of the.'Torooto Blue Jays said. . . I thmk bo~. sides wtll regret it ~f 1t happens, Hersh1 se r said. There w1II be extensive damage to the game, extensive damage to the season. It's a sobe ring thought." T11ere was no bargaining Mon day as the strike passed it s 32 nd day, matching the 1990 lockout as the second- longest work stoppage in major league history. Even the level of telephone activity dropped. Owners cond ucted conference calls at midday and early even ing, and the players' board met at night. Union head Donald Fchr said he did not talk to Se li g or owners' neg otiator R1chard Ravitch on Monday. "Unless or until the owne rs show a willin gness to negoti a te, tllere's Iitde else to do," Fchr said . "There's nothing productive happe ning," Boston Red Sox chief execu tive officer John Harrington s;, id. Harrington and Kasten. who along with Colorado Rockies chairman Jerry McMorris tried to fash ion a compromise last week., were back in their offices. Owners rejected the players' new "tax" plan last Friday, a day after it was proposed. Accordmg to Harrmgton and Kasten, the union sa id Saturday that it would not accept any " tax" that would restrnin salaries. "They made it real clear they wouldn't entertain any such discusSion," Kasten said. "Once it has real impac t on sa laries, th ey wouldn't discuss it." Ona said that the union's statement didn't so as far as Kasten c haracterized 11. "The players' association 1s not interested in discussing any proposal that had a pronounced or profound impact on the salary suucture that ex ists in baseball," Orza sat d. McMorri s, checking hi s notes from the meetings. said Fehr told him : "The owners will not get this unioo to artificially hold down payrolls." New proposals for Riverfront don't say who pays CINCINNAT1 (AP) - Government leaders have new proposals from Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott's investor group about renovating Riverfront Stadium for use by either, or both , of th e city's major pro sports team s. But the big issues still remain unresolved, such as who will pay for the multi-million-dollar proposals and if either baseball's Reds or pro football 's Cincinnati Bengals will end up as Riverfront's lone occupant. Schott's group on Monday went public with proposals for baseballonly. football-only or joint baseball-football use. The group presented the plan to city and Hamilton County leaders and business executives at a downtown hotel. The Reds and Bengal s have argued for years about Riverfront's layout, and both have said they would prefer separate stadiums in the future. Botll teams are tenants in the 24-year-old stadium, which the county owns and the city operates. The group's $44 million, base- Cage tourney set for Saturday Time is starting to run out to get involved in this year's Pepsi ThreeOn-Three Tournament, which will be held during the Middleport River Festival Saturday. Promoters of the $1,000 championship round need to get local businesses to sponsor youth teams. For applications or more information about sponsoring teams, stop by Don Tate Motors in Pomeroy or Locker 219 in Middle- ball-only option called for c utting away part of the stadium's upper deck 10 aflord a center field view of downtown. The proposal also envisions a glass-enclosed stadium club, new luxury suites and picnic areas near elevated bullpens. For football-only use , an estimated $48 million would be needed to rework the stadium to seat 70,000 people and provide new luxury suites and club seating. It would cost about $40 mill ion for the joint-usc plan that would add about 4,000 new football seats and several hundred field-lev e l baseball seats. All three propo sa ls ca ll for replacing the field's artificial turf witll grass. The stadium's current seating capacity for football is 60,389 and for baseball , 52,952. The group's proposa l does not say how the project should be paid for or who should ftnance it. It also does not indicate a preference for baseball-only, football-{)nly or joint use. The group hired HOK Sport, a Kansas City, Mo .- based sports architectural fmn, to devise the stadium renovation plans. Mike Brown, the Bengals' general manager and part owner, said he will look at the new proposals. But Brown has said he doesn't think a reworked Riverfront Stadiwn would provide the revenues his team needs. City Manager John Shirey said the plans would provide more specific information for ongoing discussions about whether one or two new stadiums will be needed for the Bengals and Reds, and how the projects will be fmanced. Schott's group last spring was granted a three-month negotiating period - later extended to four months - to study the possibility of buying the stadium. A bid to buy Riverfront was not part of the package revealed Monday. " It 's too early to make that decision ," Chesley said. He said Schou's group may ask the city for another e~tension to consider a purchase. lrvan in fair condition following third operation )ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - R~ce car driver Ernie lrvan has undergone three surgerie s as he continues recovering from injuries incurred in an accident at Michigan International Speedway, a surgeon at SL Joseph Mercy Hospital said. On Monday, Drs. Saeed Farhat and Lawrence Ho closed the opening left by lrvan's tracheostomy to improve Irvan's ability to speak. said Dr. Errol Erland so n, St. Joseph's vascular and uauma surgcon. The doctors also drained Ouid from the ear canal to improve his hearing and implanted a valve to prevent increased spinal fluid buildup in the brain, Erlandson said. "The valve mechanism. known as a ventricular-jugular shunt, is basically a drainage tube that works only when there is excess nuid present," he said. "It's a permanent method to prevent fluid pressure buildup and will in no way preclude any future activity on Mr. Irv:in's part" lrvan was resting comfortably and listed in fair condition, the hospita! said. lrvan received severe head and lung injuries when his car slammed into a concrete waU during an Aug . . 20 practice session at the Brooklyn Mich., mce track. He was uncon: . scious for seven days after the acci- . dent, but has shown steady · improvemenL His short-term recall and orien- . tation continue to improve, he said. lrvan also is getting stronger and becoming more active.

The representative explained that SSI pays individuals who are age 65 or older, or disabled individuals under age 65. In addition, to qualify for SSI, a person must hav e limited income and "resources." Resources are things like savings and checking account.s, bonds, and anything else that can be converted into cash. The home in which you live and the car you drive usually do not count as resoUICes. Helen's only income was her $366 Social Security check. (SSI considers her Social Security benefit "unearned" income.) Helen rented a small apartment, had a small bank account and an old car. Since Helen had limited income and few resoUICes, the claims representative immediately helped her file for Supplement~! Security Income (SSI). As the name suggests, SSI is designed to "supplement" a person's inc~me up to a .certain level.

For starters, the .1940 census found the med1an pnceof a home was $2,938, the equ•valent of $27,400 m 1990 after mnauon IS considered, the bureau sa1d. The median value means half of all houses were more expensive tlhan that, half less. In 1990 dollars, the median value of home~ rose 10 $39,900 in 1950, $52,500 m 1960; $57,300 m 1970; $74,900 m 1980 and $79,100 in 1990. . Census officials staned calculatmg the share of mcome that people spent on housmg m 1960, when 11 was 19 percent for both renters and homeowners wuh mortgages. By 1990, renters were spending 26 percent of their income on housing and mortgage holders were spendmg 21 percent. But as costs have risen, housing conditions do seem to have improved. In 1940, 18 percent of homes needed major repairs, having suffered neglect during the Depression years. .. . . .. In 1950, the term dilapidated was introduced and applied 10 10 percent of housing, a share that fell to 5 percent by 1960. The category was dropped after that.

In 1970, the Census survey switched from all housing units to year -around units , and those lacking toilets fell to 4 percent, then declined to 3 percent in 1970 and 1980. Electricity, refrigerators and television have become so prevalent that the bureau no longer asks which homes have them The share of homes ~ith electric IighLS rose from 79 percent in 1940 to 94 percent in 1950; and those with mechanical refrigerators from 44 ' 10 .

Beat of the Bend ... by Bob Hoeflich Pomeroy barber. Mick Williams, returned Thursday evening from Minneapolis, Minn., where he served as an Eighth District delegate to the National American Legion Convention. It was Mick's fttst time in Minneapolis and he and several of his friends did take time from convention duties 10 visit the mall therebilled as the largest in the world. It was interesting too, not only for Mick but for other Legionnaires in attendance, when part of the uni form of the day-parade day yetwas white short sleeved shirts and it was snowing. Needless to say, there were a lot of very cold Legionnaires and apparently no one had expected snow to hit so earlyeven in Minneapolis. American's homes today are bigger, better, more costly than parents' By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP)- Americans who enjoy comfortable home heating and cooling, bask in a tub or relax with a bright reading light may be surprised at how many of their parents hved w1thout such amenities. Just a half-century ago. nearly two out of five homes lacked a shower or bathtub. Air conditioning was almost non-existent and heat often meant feeding a furnac e with wood or dusty coal. And many homes still detJended on kerosene lamps for Adventures For Sale Special circumstances permit payment of two SS benefits By ED PETERSON Social Security Manager in Athens Most people are aware that individuals can receive Social Security benefits. Most people arc aware that individuals can receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits. But many people may not know that under certain circumstances, individuals can get both Social Security and SSI benefiLS at the same Lime. Let me give you an exam pie of how a person can get both Social Security and SSI benefits at the same time. I'll change the name of the person involved, but use her case to explain tlhe programs. Helen Trump , a 65 -year-o ld domestic worker, came in to file for her Social Security retirement bencfit.s. Although she worked regularly for the past 40 years, she never earned much money and sometimes her employers failed 10 withhold and pay Social Security taxes for her. Those two factors coupled to make her Social Security benefit low - only $366 per NEW TRAVEL AGENCY sioris were in 96 percent of homes in 1970, up from I 2 percent in 1950. The bureau stiJI asks about telephones, which were in 95 percent of homes m 1990, up from 78 percent m 1960 when people were first asked about these instruments. Heating fuels have changed drasbcally from the coal and wood of 1940, w1th more than half of all homes now using uti~ty gas and 26 percent havmg electnc heat. Coal has virtually disappeared fJl!m the home furnace, the report sa1d, but wOO<! has experienced a mmt-revtval With the popularity of wood stoves. . Interesting that Bob Orr was reporting for NBC from the scene of the tragic airplane crash near Pinsburgh. Bob was an anchor for WBNS -TV in Columbus for quite a while and many of us became familiar with htm through that. It's kinda like a member of the · familY' made it to the "big time". You think you traveled a lot on your vacation? Well, this may give you second thoughts. In I 924, four Meigs County men- Victor Genheimer, now a 98-year-older living at Peach Fork; his cousin, George Genheimer, now 96, Iong·time Chester resident; George Heilman, an uncle of the two Genheimers, and another uncle, Victor Sponagel-made a 6,000 mile trip 10 Montana, South Dakota. Wyoming and other points west in an old ford. T'wasn't old at the time, but the vehicle cenainly wasn't comparable to today's faster-paced, more comfortable cars. And then there were the highways. The trip took six weeks and the four were given a lot of publici- •• I• II - ty for having made the long haul and they had a variety of experi ences . In fact, they were even jailed once along the way even thous.h they hadn ' t broken any laws. It was just a case of mistaken identity. Keep in mind this trip 'j>'as 70 years ago when law enforcement officials didn ' t have the sophisticated system of identification that we know today. Esther Frecker filled me in on the trip which she learned about from a newspaper clipping wriuen about the four Meigs Countians at the Lime. The newspaper clipping was found among the possesswns of Esther's sister, Ruth, who was entering a nursing home and was sent along to Esther by Ruth's daughter. The trip probably had little to do with the longevity of Victor and George Genheimer. On the other hand, the extensive traveling apparently didn't do them any harm. I'm real pleased 10 report that Paulette Harrison, who has threatened retirement from the world of dance, will be organizing and teaching the teen dance lines for the upcoming fall musical of the Big Bend Minstrel Association. Not only that but traditionally, Paulette's Shady River Shufners have opened the show with a lively routine. This year will be no exception. Paulette will !!Ct enough of them together and tram them so that the tradition wiU continue. She was in charge of the teen lines for the 1993 show and did a stellar job of it. Teens wishing 10 take part and are willing to put forth the work involved can get in touch with Paulette at 992-6248. And Middleport will have its annual festival this Saturday.

Drug giant Hoffman LaRoche said Monday that it won't be ready until at least the middle of 1995 to move forward with saquinavir, the first in a new family of AIDS drugs called protease inhibitors. AIDS palienL~ have been looking forward to this new class of drug as the nex 1 best hope to stall HIV, the virus that causes AIDS by des troying the immune system. Even government regulators were hoping the drug would be ready 10 move forward more quickly. "We strongly welcome expanded access for saquinavir," Food and Drug Commissioner David Kessler 10ld LaRoche, asking how soon the company could give the e<perimental drug 10 dying patients desperate 10 try it The only four anli-HIV drugs on the market now interfere with the way HIV transcribes its genetic code to the cells it invades - a process the virus finds easy to resist Saquinavir promises to work by suppressing protease, an enzyme key to the replication of the HIV virus. But it is still unproven. In early clinical trials . I 00 patients who are taking the old AIDS drugs AZT and ddC plus saquinavir are showing stron~er immune systems than those takmg the other drugs alone, LaRoche researcher Dr. Waijen Soo told an FDA hearing Monday in Silver Spring, Md. But that is a very small trial, and it hasn't yet been confirmed in any other experiments. As soon as LaRoche can confirm the fmding, it will apply 10 FDA for accelerated approval, but Soo couldn't give a date. Under that program, FDA licenses AIDS drugs that appear 10 work through such indirect measures as immune function- on the condition that companies quickly conduct longer studies 10 prove the drugs really prolong life. On the way to accelerated approval, FDA.. also al}ows "expanded access to expenmental drugs for dying patients who have no alternatives. It will be at least mid-1995 before that ~pens with saquinavir because that IS the soonest the company can make enough 10 give anyone outside its strictly conb'OUed trials, Soo said. Even when it does open saquinavir to expanded access, fewer patients will get it than have gorum any other experimental drug, he warned. "We do not have enough drug to supply to anybody who wants it," he told FDA. "We need your help .... We are not deciding who gets the drug and who does not." LaRoche's timetable came in the midst of a bitter fight over whether FDA allows quick enough access 10 potential drugs. Some say its accelerated approval program gives patients drugs with so little data that they don't have any idea how to take , them,- or even if taking them is a good idea. . "The system has not served us well," said Gregg Gonsalves of New York's Treatment Action Group, which urged FDA to require better trials before approving saquinavir. Otlla' activists said the quest for proof was too long and unfair to patients who can tell quickly if takmg new medicines does them any good. "You're being protected to death," said Dr. Thomas McGee of Los An'eles. ''Pallents who are terminally ill have nothing 10 lose in using this drug," added patient Bill Roberts of San Diego. - - "lose We~hllike "Crazy" Guaranteed Lo..

After the first package, my bowel problem s sub sided. Maybe this suggestion will help your readers. DEAR READER : Metamucil certainly docs help regulate bowel movemen ts in some people with irritabl e bowel sy ndrome, by adding more bulk to the stool . This serves both to aid evacuation and to absorb the excess fluid that may cause diarrhea. Thank you for writmg. To give you more information, I am sending you a free copy of my Health Report "lrri table Bowel Syndrome." Other readers who would like a copy should send $2 plu s a long, self-addressed, stamped enve lope to P.O. Box 2433, New York, NY 10163 . Be sure to mention the title. DEAR DR. GOTT: Is it possible to get intoxicated by co nsuming large quantities of water and, if so, is it the same kind of intoxication as with alcohol? DEAR READER: There is a medical disonder Jcnown as "water intoxication," but it does not resemble alcohol intoxication. When the body fails to excrete proper amounts of water - either because the kidneys cannot adapt to the excessive fluid load in people who drink huge quantities of water or because of a hormonal imbalance - the amounts of sodium and potassium in the body become diluted . Thi s results in lethargy , confu· sion and stupor that can, unless treated, progress to coma and death. The diagnosis is made by blood tests; the treatment incl udes restriction of water intake and the intravenous administration of sodium and potassium. Although water intoxication can occur by itself (psychogenic polydipsia), it is often associated with other diseases, such as lung cancer, renal failure and serious infection. In contras~ alcohol intoxication, with its familiar signs, is caused by an excessive alcohol content in the body's organs, chiefly the brain. Thus, the effects of alcohol iniOxi cation are due entirely to the consequences of the drug Itself, whereas water intoxication causes symptoms that are scwndary 10 mineral imbalances. DEAR DR. GOTT: What can be done about the small, hard, permanent sebaceous bumps or pimples that are commonly see n on the faces of m iddlc-aged peopl e? Wha~ if any, is the newest method that dcnnatoloRists have 10 remove them? DEAR READE~: Many skin condi tions strik e in middle-age. Two of the most common are rosacea and keratinous cysts. Rosacea is a chronic inflammation of the skin, usually of the face, marked by redde ned , pimply lesions that cause what has been referred to as a "W.C. Fie ld s appearance," after the celebrated movie actor. The condition can successfully be treated by metron· idazole cream and oral antibiotics.

Dr. Nathanael Rothman, an cpldemiologist at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Md., said the next step 1s uackmg how many people with high levels of the mutation develop cancer. "We do not Jcnow if people with higher rates of this mutation are at increased risk for developing lym· phoma, compared to people who have lower levels of thi s mulation," Rothman said.

The transmission needs to be replaced on this vehicle. Council suggested no more money be spent on the cunrent van, and another used van should be acquired. The board placed a $3,000 limit on the cost of a van. All paperwork for the 2.5 mill, 5-ycar levy has been flied, Village Clerk/freasurer Sandy Smith said. The $30,000 total raised during the five years would be used only for equipment, not salaries, Council President Duane Weber said.

In other infrastructure concerns, the council agreed to potentially contract a local firm to patch the Civic Center roof. Meigs County Prosecutor John Lentes, through the Law Enforcement Trust Fund, gave the village $600 for the" center's roof. Bob Smith stated to the village he could likely put a I 00-foot by 2foot wide patch of foam on the roof for just the cost of materials or about$350.

Blount County is a north-central Alabama county of about4 I ,000 residents. "I've talked to the chief of police and they are willing to send him," Lentes said. "The way it's going we'll get him here." Alabama authorities may dismiss or postpone charges against Persons until after Ohio and West Virginia officials have decided hi s fate , Lentes added. "He has only verbally said he will waive," Lentes said. "We're already started on a government' s warrant .. Persons was expected to sign the waiver, which would begin the process within days, but had not by the end of Tuesday, Lentes said. If he does not waive extradition, a governor's warrant will have to be sent to the Alabama governor to get approval to have him released, which could talce 45 days at least, he added. Meigs authorities have already begun filing for the governor's warran~ Lentes said.

(AP) - Opponents of a proposed pulp mill in Mason County have challenged the facility's state permits, saying the permits would endanger public health by allowing discharge of dioxin into the Ohio River. The Ohio Valley Environmental Coalition, the Affiliated Construction Trades Foundation and three West Virginia residents fded appeals Tuesday with the Environmental Quality Board. The state Division of Environmental Protection in August issued water discharge and industrial landfill pennits to Parsons & Whiumore, Inc. of Rye Broot,N.Y. The company, which wants to build a $U billion paper mill upriver from Huntington, still needs state air pollution pennits. The appeals said state regulators did not consider current dioxin levels when calculating how much of the chemical could be safely discharged. II cited a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Study that show dioxin levels may now exceed federal standards. Dioxin is a potentially toxic by-product of processes such as paper production, which uses chlonine. The appeals also said the perm its are 100 vague and would allow the mill to exceed discharge limits without penalty. Agency Director David C. Callaghan said his agency followed state and federal guidelines when it issued the pennits. He has said the pennits would ensure public safety by severely limiting the amount of dioxin discharged into the river. He said on Tuesday that he expects the permits to be tied up in court for years. The five-member Environmental Quality Board considers appeals of division's actions. Its decisions may be appealed 10 a circuit court then to the state Supreme Court.
