insurance can keep property owners
from drowning in high water expenses
BY J. MILES LAYTON
Staff writer

POMEROY - Water leaks
can cost hundreds of dollars in
costly water bills. A water leak
.insurance program, which
costs $25 per year, seeks to
keep Pomeroy water customers
from J'aying high water bills
cause by water line breaks.
In the past, the village has
· given leak credit f.or those·
water bills caused by broken
pipes but this has led to problems of fairness. Due lo Circumstances related to the,prob-

!em, some people may have
received more leak credit than
others. Leak credit is no longer
available.
"We could no longer find an
equitable way of helping people on leak credits," said John
Anderson, village administrator.
· Pomeroy water customers
have had the opportunity to
purchase leak insurance to help
cover the cost of a leak since
July of 2002. The customer is
required to notify the water
department when a leak is discovered and when repairs are

completed. This would ensure
that the correct time fnune is
being used to calculate the loss.
The customer would pay their
average usage, which is based
on the last 14 months, and the
balance of the bill would be
paid by leak insurance. ·
The $25 fee is due by July I 0
of each year. The insurance
runs one year from July 10 to
July 10 next year.
Leak insurance will pay up
to $300 maximum per year, per
customer. After the maximum
is reached, the customer would
be responsible for any addi-

tiona! costs for the remainder
of the year. Anderson said
without any leak credits to
eliminate costly water bills,
·property owners would be
more motivated to make
repairs to water pipes. The
fund cannot be used for filling
swimming pools or other uses
not considered leaks.
Anderson said seveml peopie have purchased the insurance which has saved them
"from a lot of nasty water
bills." While any Pomeroy
water customer can purchase
the insurance, the ones that

would most likely benefit are
people with older homes.
Anderson said these people are
. more at risk than anyone living
in newer homes because their
water pipes are older and more
inclined to breaking. People
that have long water pipes
extending from the street to
their homes may also benefit
from leak insumnce.
"We feel it is very helpful,"
said Anderson.
Tuppers Plains and Leadirtg
Creek Water Districts also have
leak insurance programs m

Six young people from Kettering came to Meigs County for the first time last week to do voi·
unteer work for the community like repairing the garage for the Pomeroy United Methodist
Church. (J. Miles Layton)

Volunteers make difference
through community service.
BY J,. MILES LAYTON
Staff writer

POMEROY- People serve
humanity in their own unique
ways and volunteering to help
the needy is paying homage to
God, said the Rev. Bob
Robinson of Middleport who
spent last week with a work
group from Kettering .
Six teenagers and two adults
from the Church of the Cross
United Methodist Church in
Kettering came to Meigs
County to volunteer afew days
of thetr summer to making the
world a better place for the less
fortunate.
The group is part of the
Jackson Area Ministries, directed by the Rev. Bob Davis. The
organization seeks to connect
volunteer groups statewide to
the places where they are needed most.
"It is really important to help
people because it is what God
wants you to do," said Bethany
Spieth, a 12-year-old who has
never been to Meigs County
before. "Maybe He wants us to
help other people because some
people are not well off and by
helping them, we do God's
wilL"
During,their four day visit in
Meigs County, the group of
young people repaired a garage,

stuffed potatoes in bags for the
less fortunate, and entertained
the congregation at Forest Run
United Methodist Church.
The volunteers did ·yard
work, cleaned gutters and did
several other household things
for Myron Duflield, 71 , who is
recovering from open heart
surgery. Duffield said he is not
allowed to lift more than five
pounds and would not have
been much good finishing the
necessary projects he started
before his surgery.
"There's not enough words to
describe how much good these
kids have done," he said. "They
did a fantastic job. They were
really a great help to me."
Later the young group of
"apprentice" carpenters picked
up hammers, nails and shingles
for the first time to repair the
garage roof at the Pome,roy
United Methodist parsonage.
Robinson said the money saved
by repairing the garage roof tor
the church can now be use&lt;) to
serve the community through
other church projects.
Chri sti Salchak, 40, is a
youth counselor with the
group. Her 12-year-old daughter, Carrie, is volunteeri~g for
the first time away from home.
The two enjoy spending time
with each other and Salchak
said this will be a learning

experience for her daughter.
."As a mom, my kids live a
really blessed life,'.' she said.
"It's nice for them to have a
chance to help out somebody,
but one of my focuses is teaching my children about people. I
want my kids 10 meet other peapie and I wanl them to know
about other people's circumstances and that we always
share common ground. Service
. isn't just what they are learning
' through work, ·but through t1u:
people."·
Salchak said the young peapie are learning more than just
how to hammer a nail &lt;1r replace
roof shingles.
"They are learning to love
people for who they are, as they
are, and where they are," she
said. "No matler what situation
God plops you in, we all have
something in common that we
can share."
Michael Wbittaker, 13, said
Meigs County is a lot different
from Kettering. He said he feels
a lot safer in Pomeroy than he
does in his hometown.
Whittaker, the son ofa preacher,
said everyone seems to know
everyone else in Pomeroy. He
enjoys lhe han! work involved
with nailing on shingles or
cleaning rain gutters .
"'Work doesn't have to be ·
hard, it can be fun," he said.

early Tuesday, adding to the
miseries of already waterlogged communities. ·

resumed ; and firefifhters
sought the assistance o nearby departments in the effort.
Numerous roads across the
northern two-thirds of the
state were closed by flash
flooding early Tuesday..
It was the fifth straight day
for thunderstorms that have
left thousands of homes and
businesses statewide without

No major injurie~ or deaths
were reported from the
storms.
·
Firefighters and volunteers
in Rockford on Monday built
a wall of sandbags to protect
structures near the St. Marys
River in hopes of preventing
more flooding.
The Mercer County sheriff's office said early Tuesday
that the village appeared to be
holding its own against the
floodwaters. It said they were
getting some help in sandbagging efforts from area fire
departments.
County officials closed
some roads in the northern
part of the county and threatened to arrest motorists who
attempted to pass through
standing water.
"If you get stuck and we
have to come out and help

Mercer County Sheriff Jeff

Ohio State Universitt accepts tobaccocompany research grant over state money
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
-Ohio State University has
lost a $540,000 state grant
for reducin~ tobacco use
after acceptmg a research
grant of similar size from
tobacco company Philip
Morris.
Thomas Boyd, a neuroscience professor in Ohio
State's College of Medicine,
is receiving a three-year,
$590,000 grant from the
Philip Morris External
Research Program to study
how nicotine affects tile
nerve cells of zebrafish.
Researchers use the small,
striped fish native to Asia as
models for human development because their embryos
are similar to human embryos.
In response, the Ohio
Tobacco Use Prevention and
Control
Foundation
announced it was withdrawing a three-year, $540,000
grant it gave Ohio State to
provide anti-tobacco services
to adults in Ross and Vinton
counties.
That grant prohibited any
recipient from receiving money
from a tobacco company.
University offictals debated the issue for .about two
months before deciding to
accept the tobacco-company
grant, Thomas Rosol, Ohio
Stille's interim vice president
for research, said Monday.
He said the foundation's
regulations unfairly restricted other OSU researchers
frem doing research in related areas during the three
years of the ~rant. 1

Starting
Preschool program
The Washington Post on Head Start Preschool Program:
J-lead Start, the venerable preschool program for lowincome children, is due for reauthorization. and debate about
reform has already , begun in Congress. But before a Head
Start bill reaches the floor of the House-- probably later this
month--everyone involved should be clear about what
changes such a reform might achieve.
Put bluntly, cost savings are not one of them. Indeed, most
of what Head Start really needs--higher academic standards,
better-educated teachers and the ability to reach more childrel)--will cost more. not less. For that reason. Head Start
advocates were right, earlier this year. to register their doubts
about the president's proposal to turn Head Start, a federal
program for nearly 40 years, over to the states. The plan initially sounded like an ill-conceived attempt to save money by
allowing states to administer it themselves. Some of the advocates feared states might siphon the funds for other uses.
At the same time, those who want to see some changes are
also right to argue that the current formula. by which the federal government gives Head Start money directly to localities,
may be due for some updating. When Head Start was created,
few other government-funded preschool programs existed.
Now, more than 40 states and the District of Columbia fund
some form of preschool. Among others, the Trust for Early
Education, a group that advocates the spread of pre-kindergarten programs, now fears that some states will wand up with
· a two-track system--Head Start for poor children and state·
funded programs for everybody else.
While far from perfect, the Head Start reauthorization bill
that recently passed out of committee is better than the president's original proposal and aims to avoid such a two-track
system. The reauthorization law would allow on ly eight
states--in effect, those that are already contributing substantial
amounts to state-funded preschool programs--to apply for the
ri$ht to administer their Head Start funds themselves. Clearly,
thts program must be treated as an experiment, not as a precedent, and it should continue only if the eight siates prove they
can effectively integrate Head Start into their state programs.
Congress and the White House can strengthen this bill in
other ways. The legi slation includes a provision calling for all
Head Start teachers to hold bachelor's degrees by 2008. If this
is a real goal and not mere rhetoric, Congress must also appropriate to Head Start the funding it needs to attract and retain
educated teachers. Congress must also ensure that the final
version of the bill makes clear that the government's intention
is not to "water down" Head Start's standards or eliminate its
family and health services but to preserve them. The end
result must be that more children have access to high-quality
preschool.

Could the Internet do for
the left what talk radio has
done for the right?
Until recently, the question
might have seemed absurd.
For about 15 years, a nationwide constellation of rightleaning talk-radio hosts has
pmvided conservatives a·
powerful means of mobilizmg their grass-roots supporters to enlist in causes and
campaigns. The left has never
been able to establish a competing galaxy of liberal gabbers--or to find an alternative
mechanism that can persuade
and activate as many voters as
talk radio.
That alternative may have
arrived last week. History
may record former Vermont
Gov. Howard Dean's unprecedent)!d success at raising
money online for his
Democratic presidential campaign as the moment when
the Internet emerged as a
political tool comparable in
strength to talk radto.
Over the past three months.
Dean raised $3.6 million on
the Internet from nearly
45,000 donors; last Monday
alone, in a kind of electronic
telethon, Dean co.llected a
breathtaking $820,000 as supporters rushed to pad his total
on the final day of the secondquarter fund-raising reporting
, period.
" This was an historic
week, where you had for the
first time an unbelievably
profound use of the Internet
to mobilize regular people to
participate in politics again,"
says Simon Rosenberg, president of the New Democrat
Network, an alliance of centrist Democrats. " It has
changed American politics
forever."
Dean's success doesn't
mean the left will dominate

tlie Internet. But unlike talk
radio, the Internet isn't dominated by the right--it offers
both sides a chance to mobilize support. And right now.
the left may be ahead of the
right in seizing this tool's
potentiaL
It's difficult to compare the
audiences of talk radio and
the Internet. The largest talkradio shows, such as Rush
Limbaugh's, almost certainly
still reach more people every
day than any Internet site dedicated to political persuasion.
And the Internet still isn't
available as widely as radio,
which is present in virtually
every American home.
But the Internet has also
become a genuine mass medium. A recent study by
Arbitron, the commercial rating service, found that threefourths of Americans now
have access to it, nearly twothirds in their homes.
Surprisingly, it appears
about the .same number of
Americans regularly obtain
information from the Internet
and talk radio. The best data
on this comes from the Pew
Research Center for the
People &amp; the Press, an independent polling organization.
Its latest surveys show that 17
percent of Americans listen
regularly to talk mdio, while
15 percent go online every
day for news.
That large talk-radio audience has proved an enormous
political asset to conservatives. Through talk radio.
conservative groups incited
brush fires of oppositiqn to
many of President Clinton's
ideas (such as health-care
reform). When Republicans
seized control of the House of
Representatives in the 1994
election, !he huge freshman
class proclaimed Limbaugh
their " majority-maker."
Talk radio is a medium built
on heat, so it's been tougher to
use it to mobilize support for

President Bush's agenda. But
it remains at the center of
conservative political strategies. Keith Appell, a veteran
publicist for conservative
causes, says his firm stays in
close contact with ljS many as
400 talk-show hosts around
the country. " For conservatives, talk radio is still the
most reliable and quicl\est
way to mobilize support." he
says.
The left has never been able
to use talk mdio as effectively; liberal hosts, such as
Mario Cuomo, have flopped.
Liberals mostly think that's
because their arguments are
too nuanced for the !&gt;lackand-white
talk
culture.
Conservatives, more persuasively, generally believe they
monopolize
talk
radio
because their partisans feel
disenfranchised from the
mainstream media and have
seized on the talk shows as
their alternative.
Whatever the cause, there's
no question the talk audience
leans sharply right; Pew
found that almost half of regular talk-radio listeners consider themselves conservatives, compared with just 18
percent who call themselves
liberals.
But those who regularly
seek news on the Internet
divide more evenly between
moderates (39 percent), conservatives (35 percent) and
liberals (23 percent). That
balance reflects a broader
realignment in political attitudes: voters with more education have been trending
Democratic (largely around
social issues) for years, and a
much higher percentage of
regular Internet users than
ta!kzradio fans have college
degrees.
Those contrasting aud iences help explain why
Democrats have made more
inroads on the Internet than
on talk radio. Dean's success

James Hall
was a milestone. But he's
building on the work of
MoveOn.org, the online liberal advocacy ,group that was
founded to fight Clinton's
impeachment and has swelled
to 1.5 million members by
opposing the war in Iraq and
other Bush policies.
With . just six staffers,
MoveOn has demonstrated
that through the Internet it can
mobilize at least as much
grass-roots activism as the
talkers on the right. Earlier
this year, MoveOn generated
200,000 e-mails opposing the
Federal
Communications
Commission decision allowing media giants to own more
properties--and, within hours,
raised $250,000 to pay for ads
criticizing the ruling.
Wes Boyd, the software
magnate · who
founded
MoveOn, says the Internet
has already proved itself more
eft'ective than talk radio at
generating contributions and
letters. " When we send out
an e-mail and say. ' Why don't
you do this,' ~ople are in an
active mode,' he says. "They
can click a link and do something. When somebody is
watching TV or listening to
the radio, they are in a passive, entertainment mode.
"Some conservative strategists privately agree. Which is
why the success of MoveOn
and Dean is likely to accelerate the right's efforts to mobilize on the Internet as well.
· It's unlikely liberals will
establish the sort of lasting
advantage online that conservatives enjoy in talk radio.
But by taking such an aggressive technological leap onto
the Internet, liberals, for the
first time, may have a megaphone that can compete with
the right's talk-radio message
machine. It may turn out the
liberal answer to Rush wasn't
an alternative talker, but the
mouse, the keypad and the
browser.

Into Africa
'

Perhaps wisely, President
Bush 's trip to Africa this
week begins in Senegal, a
country that has made great
political
and economic
progress in recent years, and
mcludes Botswana, the
fastest-growing developing
country in the world, as well
as South Africa and Nigeria,
two regional powerhouses.
By visiting African success
stories--including Uganda,
another country that has
made progress--the president
will force the world to focus,
at least momentarily. on
some of the g9Qd news coming from the co ntinent, a
laudable goal.
But the bad news will be
hard to avoid. For the president will also be traveling
near Sudan, Liberia and
Congo, sites of horrific conflicts. In South Africa,
Botswana anH Uganda, he
will be at the center of the
AIDS crisis. Everywhere, he
will encounter leaders of
countries where infant mortality is high and curable disl.

treatment programs need to
be designed so that money is
not wasted. Drug companies
need to be involved: All of
this takes political time and
effort.
Those who monitor economic aid do not feel much
more sec ure about the future,
given that much of the good
that is done through new initiatives
such
as

Accounts is effectively
erased by the administration's farm subsidies. U.S.
subsidies to cotton producers
alone threaten the livelihoods
of million of West African
farmers . Indeed, it is difficult
for the World Bank and others who advise African states
to persuade them to open up
their markets if Western
countries don't .'
More could be done in the
realm of security. too. The
United States should be
speaking far more forcefully
to governments in Uganda
and Rwanda about their
involvement
in
the
Congolese war and more
clearly about human rights

violations on the continent-in Zimbabwe, in Sudan and
elsewhere--as · these are a
major source of political
instability.
Finally, lurking in the
back~round of this trip is the
decisiOn tllat the administration needs to make about
Liberia. where the United
Nations and other countries
have asked the_United States
to help lead a peacekeeping
force. All indications are that
the president will send some
troofs, but not many. The

and military commitment to
this mission is not only
important in itself; it also
sends. a powerful signal about
the administration's longterm commitment tq peace

RACINE - The Southern
Local School Board unanimously , approved placing a
four mill levy on , the ballot
November 4 at Wednesday's
meeting. If the voters renew
the three-year levy, it will
raise approximately $144,000
for the district. The four mill
renewal levy provides funds
needed for the maintenance
and operation of the school
system.
"The district has taken steps
internally to be more cost
etTective and needs the renewal levy to maintain the services it currently provides to
students," said Pam Carter,
district treasurer.
In January, the school board
voted to postpone putting a
levy on the ballot in May
because it would cost more
than $4,000 to put it on the
ballot. A November ballot will
spread the cost of running the
election between several gov, ernment entities who will also
be using the ballot.

eases are still rampant.
Three sets of issues should
therefore concern Mr. Bush:
security, economic development and health. In all three,
his administration has lately
been active, but the strength
and endurance of its commitment remain questionable. In
recent months, it helped push
a bill through Congress
authorizing $15 billion to be
spent on AIDS and HIV
internationally over the next
five years. The Millennium
Challenge Fund, if it gets off
the ground, may encourage
some of the better-governed
countries in Africa to become
more so. The administration
also helped negotiate behind
the scenes in Congo and
called for money to help
African nations work jointly
on peaGekeeping and against
terrorism.
What matters is whether
these commitments will be
sustained. Critics note that

Prosecutors
hold off on filing
charges against
Kobe Bryant
EAGLE. Colo. (AP) Prosecutors need more time
before deciding whether to
bring charges against Kobe
Bryant, who . is accused of
sexually assaulting a woman
at a resort near Vail last week.
"Sometimes it takes awhile
to get through everyt~ing,"
Eagle
County
Dtstnct
Attorney Mark Hurlbert said
Monday. "It may be beyond
the end of the week."
He said Bryant might not
be charged at all, but he
refused to discuss details of
the allegations against the
five-time NBA All-Star.
Bryant's lawyer, Pamela
Mackey. said the Los Angeles
Lakers guard "expects to be
completely exonerated," and
she accused the sheriff's office
uf rushing the case against the
advice ot prosecutors.
Accordong to an arrest warrant, the 24-year-old Bryant
attacked a woman June 30.
Authorities said only that it
happened at a hotel. Officials
at the Lodge &amp; Spa at
Cordi llera in nearby Edwards
said Bryant stayed there June
30-July 2.
Under Colorado law, sexual assault could range from
fondling to rape .
The accusations against
one of the NBA's btggest
stars made headlines nationwide and stunned the sports
world. Dozens of reporters
and camera crews descended
011 this mountain town about
I 00 miles west of Denver.
Since entering the NBA
straight from ti1gh school,
Bryant has drawn comparisons to the league 's greatest
players ever. He was married ·
10 200 I and became a father
earlier this year.
Bryant surrendered to
authorities Friday and was
released
after
posting
$25.000 bond. Mackey said
her client had been in
Colorado for s ur~ery on his
right knee at Vail s Steadman
Hawkins Clinic.
Mackey accused the sheritT's office of "complete bias,"
,aying it ignored the wishes of
the dtstrict attorney in obtaining the arrest warrant.
"We were told that the matter was under consideration
by the district attorney's office
but that there was insufficient
information to issue a warrant
or to file charges," she said in .
a stalernent.
Mackey did not return calls
":ek mg elaboration.
At Monday's news conference, Hurll:lert refused to
address Mackey's claims.
"What's done is done," said
Hurlben, standing a few feet
.tway from Sheriff Joe Hoy,
\\hose office is leading tlie
investigation. "''m not goi ng
to comment on whettier tt
was prudent or not. A judge
found probable cause."
·
The sherifh office sought
the arrest warrant from .a
JUdge instead of making the
1cquest through the dtstnct
attorney. which is the usual
rractice .. Only. the distr!ct
attorney s office can ftle
charges.
,
Hoy sa!d his investigators
learned of the case July 1 and
., penl nearly 30 hours on the
case
before contacting
Bryant. · Defense attorneys
were notified on July 3 and
Bryant returned to Colorado
the next day, sheriff's spokeswoman Kim Andree satd.
"There wasn't any urgency.
We felt we were doing tlie
right thi.~g for everyone
tn volved , Hoy said. "We
wanted to give people the
It me to themselves to adjust"
because of the holiday.
Hurlbert said he talked to
the woman, who "seems to be
doing OK considering the
ctrcumstances."

U.S. Women's Open

Houston .7, Cincinnati 1

Lunke unlikely
winner in playptf
at Pumpkin Ridge
BY DouG FERGUSON

Associated Press
NORTH PLAINS, Ore.Hilary Lunke surprised
everyone but herself, winning the U.S. Women's
Open on Monday with a 15foot birdie putt on the 18th
hole of a three-way playoff.
She is first qualifier to
capture the most prestigious
trophy in women s golf.
After watching Angela
Stanford make another
clutch birdie on · the final
hole to tie for the lead,
Lunke completed a dramatic
week at Pumpkin Ridge
with a 15-footer that broke
sharply to the left and tell
into the cup.
She thrust her arms in the
air and sobbed as she
hugged her family.
Lunke always believed
she had the game to win a
U.S. Women's Open, but
that didn't make her journey
any less amazing.
It be~an last month with
an 80 m the first round of
sectional qualifying. It
ended Monday under sunny
skies with an awesome short
game that carried her to a Iunder 70 and a one-stroke
victory over Stanford.
Kelly Robbins finished
three strokes back at 73.
"I honestly believe that
when I win my first LPGA
event, · it will be a U.S.
Open," Lunke had said
Sunday evening after getting
into the playoff.
No one can doubt her now.
She became the first player since Annika Sorenstam
in 1995 to make her first
LPGA victory the U.S .
Women's Open. And at 24,
Lunke became the youngest
American to win a major
championship in 16 years.
Walking off the 18th
green, she found her father

Cincinnati third baseman Aaron Boone (17) bobbles a ball hit by the Astros' Jeff Bagwell
during the third 'inning Monday in Houston. Bagwell singled and one run scored. (AP)

.
Teammates were glad to see Oswalt
return . He struck out JUSt three, a sign that
he wasn't totally sharp.
"I've been watching him working hard
while he's been on tlie DL," Geoff Blum
said. "I know he's not back to the level he
wants to be at, but it's a credit to how good
a pitcher he is that he did so well. He used
his defense, and he normally doesn't have
to do that that much."
The Reds were impressed.
"He pitched well," Barry Larkin said.
"Obviously he's not 100 percent. He threw
some things up there close to his normal
self. But he pitched very well."
Houston stopped a three-game losi ng
streak and sent the Redt to their fifth
straight loss, matching their season high.
Cincmnati was held to four hits by Oswalt,
Ricky Stone and Billy Wagner.
RyanDempster (2-6), making hi s second
career start on three days' rest, gave up six
runs and seven hits in four innings. He also
lost on short rest to San Francisco on May

HOUSTON - Roy Oswalt didn't start a
no-hitter this time . He just remained
unbeaten against Cincinnati.
Oswalt shut down the Reds, and Richard
Hidalgo backed him with a three-run double as the Houston Astros won 7-1 Monday
night.
Oswalt allowed one run and three hits in
six innings. He had pitched only one inning
in his previous outing before the groin
acted up for the second time this season.
In that game against the Yankees, five
relievers followed and combined on the
first six-Qitcher no-hitter in major league
history. It also was the first no-hitter
against the Yankees since 1958 and the first
against them at Yankee Stadium since
1952.
Against the Reds, Oswalt (5-4) improved
to 7-0 with a 1.56 ERA in 10 starts against
Cincinnati. He said he didn't know what
the. numbers were and didn't want anyone
4.
to tell him.
All-Star Aaron Boone put the Reds
"If I'm unbeaten against them, hopefully
I'll stay' that way," he said. "I know the}' ahead' with an RBI single in the first, but

and again broke d(m a.
"I can't believe it," she
said thr6ugh tears.
Lunke had a chance to win
outright Sunday, but her 12foot birdie putt on the final
hole came up short.
Not this time. Lunke took
only 23 putts in the 18-hole
playoff, and the final one was
her best stroke of the day.
"She put it on top of me," '
Stanford said. "That's just
awesome. It's unfortunate. I
wanted to win. But it was so
much fun."
Stanford, who trailed by
four shots with 10 holes to
-play, pulled on more magic
by chipping in for birdie on
the 14th hole to finally catch
Lunke. Her only mistake on
the back nine cost her the
victory.
From the 17th fairway,
Stanford
pulled
her '
approach into the bunker,
blasted out to 10 feet and .
missed the par putt.
Her only hope was a
~irdie on the last, and that
looked unlikely when her
third shot out of deep rough
came up just short of the
green. Hut Stanford, coming
off her first LPGA Tour victory last week, again rose to
the occasion.
She holed a 20-footer for
birdie Sunday to get into the
play9ff. This putt was just as
magical, streaking across
the green and into the cup.
"I knew she was going to
make it," Lunke said. "I was
just trying to focu s on my
line and pretend it was
match play. I just tried to
trust my stroke, concentrate
on the line, and 1 finally got
the speed right ."
· Lunke won $560,000, the
biggest check in women's
golf. In 22 previous events
on the LPGA Tour, she had
never finished higher than
15th and had $69,717 in
career earnings.
