REED ' Sentinel News Staff The status of the Meigs Cooiuy Public Defender's Office was die topic of discussion when Meigs . County Commissioners met in reg· · ular session Wednesday morning. • The public defender's office is operated at an annual cost of $40,000 to the county, and has saved the county considerable money since it was ereated ·in 1990. Prior to the establishment of the office, the county used an ¥J>Oint· ed counsel system, which, like lhe public defender's office, provided for partial cost reimbbrsetnent from the slale.

We're putting $40,000 into this office, and lhe county should be given an opportunity to appoint a local altorney to the position." Jones said that he was aware that at least three local attorneys had expressed interest in the position. "I believe that Meigs County ~le should be repr.esented by a Me1gs County attorney, especially since Meigs County attorneys are inlerested and qualified, and the laX dollars of Meigs County people are used to fund the office." Another term of !he contract allows either pany to cancel the contract at anytime, and although he will be off the board after next week, Jones urged the new board to use this .provision of the conlrliCt if necessary. "I urge this board to use any persuasion to see that Meigs County has a local public defender. You can't tell me that there aren't local attorneys who are qualified to serve in this capacily. If you have to, you should exercise your ri,g!it 10 cancel the conb'aet and eslablish your own public defender's program." According to Jones, the counry could set up its own public defend· er program without involvement in the regional office. Slate reim· bursement would still be available. In other action, the board: • Approved several interdepart· menlaffunds transfers; • Approved vacation carryover for an employee in the Meigs Counly Treasurer's office, upon the request of Treasurer Howard E. Frwnk; . • Reviewed a Ieuer from the Pri· vate Industry Council regarding the resignation from the board of Evelyn Scarberry, iiUIIIllger at the Ohio Bureau of Employee Services office in Gallipolis.

Offensive line coach Jim McNally had said before Munoz's announcement Monday that the Bengals needed to bring in a top lineman, either through die draft or free agency. · Munoz's departure makes the n~ more pressing, McNally said Tuesday.

"I don't know if he's as good as Anthonr. but he's an impact-type playec,' McNally said. Kevin Sargent, a rookie free agent, has sl:llrted eight games this year when M'i"oz was hun. "He's going to be a good tackle in a year or so," McNally said. "But he could always move to inside if we draft a top-notch tackle."

By then, many general managers will know how to stagger contracts to keep most of their best players. Still, players welcomed it, if for no other reason than for labor peace. In addition to fr.ee agency, the agreement brings the league its fiTS! salary cap, triggered when player costs reach 67 percent of revenue; cuts the player dr.aft from 12 rounds to seven and limits salaries for draft choices to $2 million, as much as first-rounders used to get.

' \ �December 1992 Ohio While you're at it, Santa Home on the range with the new ~ord Ranger By JIM FREEMAN . OVP News Stair Dear Santa. , I admit my faith in you has wavaed OVU' the years, particular- · ly alter you forgot to give me a din bike for my 12th Christmas (anc! don't think I've forgotten the "pony incident" when I was nine). However, I have decided to give you another chance to make amends by putting the keys to a new Ford Ranger pickup truck in my stoCking. Totall:r different truck : The Ranger look for 1993 is tbtally new and more aerodynamic. · The modem~ begins with a new, J·ower hood, headlamps, grill and bumper. Closer 6xamination reveals a greater wind~ield angle, Rush windshield and !!ide-window glass and doas which 6Jend into the roof and have conCealed drip rails. : The new Ranger also has a wider stance - by as much as three inches on some models. ~ Inside, the Ranger is more ~ylish and contemporary. Those familiar with Ford's Explorer S'port-utility vehicle will notJce the oew Ranger and Explorer share an idenlical dash. : the iliSII'Uments and gauges are well-placed and easy to read. The 4X4 and STX 4X2 Ranger features 'l tachometer as a scandard feature while other Rangers come standard With fuel, tcmpenUure and oil presaare gauges and a vollmeter. Home OD the range For this installment of "On the Road", I borrowed a new Ranger from Turnpike Ford-Lincoln-Mercury in Gallipolis. The Ranger I ~ted was a regular cab 4X4 with a Cayman Green exterior aild Opal Grey cloth interior. For the test drive, I decided 10 drive the Ranger 10, where else, the mnge near the Gallia County Conservation Club and do some shooting. I just IOssed our targets, cameras and other equipment iniO the bed and off I went. The optional4.0 lifer V-6 in our test truck, coupled with .a fivespeed m.anual transmission and a limited-slip 3.73-1 rear differeiUial, provided plenty of power and acceleration for everyday driving situations. Rear anti-lock brakes ensured plenty of slOpping power as wen. Although I didn't encoun~er any siwapons necessitating four-wheel drive. I found that going in and out of four-wheel drive was as simple as pushing a button on the dash. Pushing a second button shifted the transfer case into low-range. Still truck-like Big P265{1SR15 all-~errain tires, available as an option, gave the Ranger a higher, more aggressive stance and contributed to a more truck-like driving experience. Die-hard truck fans may be pleased 10 learn that the Ranger, at least the one I drove, feels, handles and rides like a truck, despite Ford's claims to the contrary. So what? A truck is suppored to feel at least a liUle truck-like.

Meanwhile, please do your best to make sure no critic says or writes "screamingly funny" in a review ever again, or .calls a TV show " one of year's 10 best" - at least, before January is over. Now, Santa, could YQI! round up seed money 10 get a few worthwhile TV projects off the ground: - In this age of round-the-cloek broadcasting, the Test Pattern Network, featuring color bars and white noise, would serve viewers who crave a little peace and quiet. -A related ipea with a patriot· ic twist is the Sign-Off Channel, devoted to fibns of Old Glory Rapping and jetstreains tearing through a few TV requests the· sky as "The Star-Spangled Banner" blares. _ The Time Channel would feature teeiRys (time jockevs) who 1 r the t tim but not 0!'

Not to be piggy, but while you're getting all that siuff rogether maybe you could come up with answers to a few burning TV-relat· ed questions: - Why does everybody love cable TV, but hate cable companies? - Exactly how many commercia is manage, regardless of the I)I'Oduct, 10 include women wearing leotards?

This ty· play guaranteed only one toeer the ·suit. As you can see, it was ~~~:I sary, as East did have all trumps. Now go back to trick one. Suppose I under the club l<ing, East drops q~.

SCOTT RECKARD AP Bui-ess Writer LOS AN<pELES - The case against renegide fmancier Charles Keating JrJ fleaded toward a jury, with prosecution and defense attorneys accusing each other of pving a deceptive picture of the Lmcoln Savings chiers dealings. Attorneys at the fedezal trial of former Lmcoln Savings owner Charles Keating Jr. ended closing argum11nts to jurors Tu11sday and the case was expected t4 go to the j!JtY Wednesday. · Keating's lawyer, Stephen C. Neal, accused AsSistant U.S. Attorney David Stlansky of "cavalier treatment" of evidence at the fraud and racketeering case stemming from Lincoln's collapse, which cost taxpayers an unprecedented $2.6 billion. Neal said the prosecution never called obvious witnesses who could have corroborated statements by former Keating employees and business associates who testified against him in hopes of light seniences.

Jury deliberations were expected to begin after U.S. District Judge Mariana Pfaelzer gives jury instructions. Keating, a former Cincinnati businessman, and his son Charles Ill are accused of fraud, racketeering and conspiracy. The charges carry a maximum sentence ·o f S2S years for the elder Keating and 47!1 for the son. The prosecution contended that Keating inflaJed business profits to fund a royal life for his family and persuade Lincoln customers to trade insured deposits for risky American Continental junk bonds. In addition to the $2.6 bailout costs of Lincolil's April 1989 collapse, jnvestorS who bought bonds from American Continental lost $220 million. Keating was convicted of swindling investors in state court last year and sentenced to 10 years in prison. .. . HO.ME ALONE.,.... Theresa Lakey holds 7-week-old son .
