Davis later became agitated when
a reporter pressed him on the issue.
"One guy made a· mistake in cov. erage." he snapped. "Ten guys
played good, one guy made a mistake and they scored a touchdown,
and we' ll coach like the dickens to
change it."
Little said the whole "thing was
overblown. But he, too, gave a terse
response when asked for details.
"That wasn't a big issue right
there," Little said. "A.Iittle miscommunication. It wasn't as big a deal as
some people think. You guys have
the right to want to know what's
going on, but it wasn't a problem at
all. We ' re a family."
Currently, a fractured one.
While Cleveland's offense - now
led by quarterback Kelly Holcomb
- could be one of the AFC's most
potent units this season, the defense
is a work in progress.
Through three games, the Browns
are giving up 28 points, 388 total
yards and 142 rushing yards per
game. Granted, some of those numbers are inflated because they came

Harrington threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Scotty Anderson in the
second quarter.
On the play, Harrington scrambled
to his right, and for a split-second
looked like he might run . Instead, he
zipped his pass to a wide-open
Ancerson, who was left uncovered
by strong safety Michael Jameson.
According to broadcast reports, an
upset Warren stomped back to the
bench, wondering aloud who in the
secondary had blown their coverage
on the play. Although Jameson later
took the blame, Henry didn 't appre~
ciate !he criticism and confronted
Warren . Injured safety Robert
Griffith had to step between them.
Davis tried to turn the argument
into a positive.
"All that does is show that it's not a
preseao;on game in their minds and
they're taking pride and they want to
play well and they're frustrated." he said.

and stay hungry and continue. to
win at a very co~t~petitive time.
He was playing against some
tremendous all-time champions
and still dominating."
Sampras touched on il number
of top1cs Monday, including his
vanishing style of play ("The
serve-and-volley game is pretty
much gone today. I do worry
about it."); his most disappointing
moment (lo~ ing in the second
round of Wimbledon last year);
his loss to Stefan Edberg in the
1992 U.S. Open fina l ("It made
me hate to lose. I just became
obsessed with being the best.");
and becoming detached from tennis ("I don ' t watch any. To shut it
out has been nice. It's been so
consuming to my life for so many
years.").
He forever will be associated
with Wimbledon. where hi s skills
translated perfectly to grass, and
where he went 56-I while winning seven titles in eight years.
Speaking about the All England
Club, three-time Wimbledon
champion Becker said: ;,Before
you were around. I used to own
the place .... Seven titles later. you
stole my keys."
Still, the National Tennis Center
made a perfect setting for
Sampras · goodbye: He won his
first and last major titles at the
U.S. Open. In 1990, Sampras beat
Agassi in the final to become. at
19. the · youngest champio n in
tournament history. Last year, he
beat .- guess who? - Agassi to
become, at 31 , the oldest Open
champion since 1970.
Last year's title was particularly
sweet, given that Sampras hadn't

won any tournament in more than
two years. The man he beat in the
third round, 1997 finalist Greg
Ru sedski, called Sainpras "a step
. apd a half slow" - but Sampras
j1,1st kept winning en route to what
on Monday he called the happiest
moment of his career.
"I'm not retiring because I'm
married or I have a son. I'm retiring because I have nothing to
prove to myself. I've always had
challenges ahead of me, either
stayi ng No. I or winning majors,"
Sampras said. "My biggest challenge was last year - the challenge of winning one more. Once
I did that, I felt. I really had
climbed a tall mountain."
After that victory, Sampras
hinted he might walk away but
never said so explicitly. Instead,
he practiced with coach Paul
Annacone until he was sure he
was ready to hang up the racket.
"As the year went on, he wanted to see how it felt. wondering:
'Do I need to go play?' Clearly,
Pete is someone who knows what
he needs to do to be prepared to
play. He didn 't just want to show
at.a tournament. He wanted to be
ready to win," Annacone said.
"This whole process has been
about deciding what you want to
do about playing. and now he'll
move on."
After Monday's ceremony,
Sampras took a lap around the
court with his son in his arms
while Pearl Jam 's song "Alive"
blared overhead and fans stood.
After a full circle. Sampras kept
walking, right through the door
that leads to the locker rooms.
'Ttl miss playing . I'll miss
competing. I'll miss going QUI in
finals at Wimbledon or here, in
front of 20.000 people. That rush,
that excitement," Sampras said.
"Just the joy of playing the
game that I will miss.'' .

Taft wants review of Ohio's
division between utility groups
COLUMBUS (AP)- Two
different companies monitor
electric transmission lines in
Ohio and Gov. Bob Taft
wants to know if that's the
best approach for the state.
If it's found that the division between the two regional transmission organizations
poses risks, Taft wants the
Public Utilities Commission
of Ohio to make recommendations for putting Ohio
under a single organization.
"Ohio stands at a crossroads in the transmission of
power across the nation, and
our energy high war is a critical piece of our mfrastructure," Taft said in a letter to
PUCO Chairman Alan
Schriber. "We need an efficient marketplace that our
individual and busin~ss customers can rely upon."
The Indianapolis-based
Midwest
Independent
Transmission
System
Operator
and
PJ M
Interconnection of Valley
Forge, Pa., oversee transmission lines in Ohio.
Taft also appointed Schriber
to a joint U.S.-Canadian task
force investigating the Aug.
14 blackout that darkened

homes and businesses in eight
states and parts of Canada.
The blackout affected 50 mi Ilion people, shut down more
than l00 power plants and
knocked Cleveland's water
supply otl' line .
U.S. and Canadian investigators are focusing on fa ilures of a power plant and
lines owned by Akron-based
FirstEnergy Corp .. including
one transmission line that
sagged into a tree .
RTOs are generally private, nonprofit companies
that manage the balance of
electricity flowing over an
electric grid.
In his letter, Taft said questions have been raised about
the Midwest ISO's effectiveness. He said the Kentucky
Public Service Commission
has . started examining the
membership of two Kentucky
utilities in the or~anization .
"I believe it ts a serious
problem," Tafl said Tuesday
of the two RTOs in Ohio. " If
it is a serious problem, what
kind of steps can Ohio take
working with the federal
government to bring Ohio
under one regional transmission organization?"

Investigators ar~ looking
into Midwesl ISO s role tn
the bla~kqt~l and specitlcally
whether the group's control
of member utilities contributed to the outage's
spread. Unlike more established groups in the Easl,
Midwest ISO. whtch has
been, operating for less. than
two years, lacks the abrhty to
directly isolute outage s.
Midwest !SO has been
working with PJM on rcliabiliiy problems and wtU be happy
10 answer any questtons posed
by Schriber, said spokeswoman Mary Lyn Webster.
PJM
spokesman Ray
Dotter said the companies
'·have bee n working diligently on operating agreements
on how functions are shared
in the region 10 ensure things
!low smooth and reliably."
Schriber said the two companies operate differently. but
stopped shorl ol cnl!crz.mg
their ability to communn:ate.
"What we need to determine is how well they com·
municate and whether or not
their wnununication capabilities (are) an impediment to ai1
efticient system in Ohio overall." Schriber said Tuesday.

In Ohio, federal regulators
have approved American
Electric Power Co.'s joining
PJM. but Virginia - which
also has AEP lines - has
blocked the move. Dayton
Power and Light and
Allegheny Power also are
PJM members.
FirstEnergy Corp. and
Cinergy Co. are members of
the Midwest ISO.
Havi ng a single RTO for a
stale does not always ensure
reliable transmi ssion, said
Philip Mihlmester, senior
vice president of ICF
Consulting, a Virginia-based
energy and environment consulling firm.
New York, which has a single RTO. lost .power during
the blackout, M1hlmester said.
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
·Maryland, all served by PJM,
did not, he said.
"!I has less to do with state
houndaries and more to do
with utility transmission
seam s and grid operations,"
Mihlmester said. "The grid
does not always conform to
state lines."

Man arrested after two-year probe into deaths
CLEVELAND (AP) The mystery surrounding the
suspicious deaths of two people under similar circumstances in the same house a
year apart may be . solved,
mvestigators said.
Police and prosecutors said
they've wrapped up their
two-year investigation into
the 200 l murder of Barbara
Davis and the 2002 murder
of Donald Ehrke with the
indictment and arrest of
Mark Ducic , Davis' common-law
husband
and
Ehrke's friend.
Police investigators were
suspicious when they found
Davis, 41, dead of a drug
overdose in a suburban Euclid
home in 2001. In 2002,
Ehrke, 44, died in the same
house under apparently similar drug-induced conditions.
Ducic's motive in both
cases was to silence a poten-

tial witness against him. said
Cuyahoga County Prosecutor
Bill Mason, who will seek
the death penalty for the 5 l'
year-old Euclid resident.
"Some of the hardest cases
to prove are ODs," Mason
said. "But after a couple of
years, Ducic thought he had
gotten away with it, and a
certain cockiness settled in.''
A jail informant, working
with police and wearing a
hidden wire, befriended
Ducic in County Jail thi s
year while he awaited trial on
a stalking case, Mason said.
The informant told Ducic he
was concerned about a
potential witness testifying
against him.
Ducic told the informant he
would administer a lethal
concoction of drugs to the
witness for $5,000. He also
told his new friend he ' d
killed two people using the

same solution, Mason said.
The man gave Ducic a
$500 down payment for the
hit , Mason said.
Armed with the tape and
Ducic's description of how
he had killed the others.
Cleveland police Detective
Greg Whitney and Agent
Lynn Edward Mudra of the
Ohio State Board of
Pharmacy went to work with
Assistant County Prosecutor
Dan Kasaris to build a case
against Ducic.
Forensic tests on blood preserved from Davis' and

COLUMBUS (AP)- The
Health
Department
is
defending its decision to hire
a company operated by the
sons of the department's for.
mer fitness leader.
The sole purpose of the conttact provided to Starr Mule Inc.
of Mansfield is to provide
speaking opportunities for Dick
Schafrath, the former executive
director of the department's
"Healthy Ohioans" program,
department spokesman Jay
Carey said Tuesday.
After Schafrath retired in
December, the department
asked the former state senator
and Cleveland Browns tackle
how they could keep him on
as the public voice of the program, The (Cleveland) Plain
Dealer reported Tuesday.
Schafrath proposed the

state hire Starr Mule, a company operated by his sons
Gerrit and Isaac.
On June 9, Health Director
Nick Baird approved a
$24,990 contract for the
company to provide inspirational speakers for the
Healthy Ohioans program.
'The whole thing was
designed to have Schafrath
do speaking.'' Carey said.
"He 's uniquely qualitled for
this based on his athletic
accomplishments and his
zest for educating people
about the importance of a
healthy lifesty le."
Carey said the Healthy
Ohioan s' new executive
director, Mari -jean Siehl a former department spokeswoman - is working in the
position part-time .

He said the combination of
Schafrath 's deal under the
contract with Starr Mule and
Siehl's salary will come close
to the position's overall salary
of $75,100. Carey also said
Schafrath 's rate of $35 an
hour is below market value.
State law (lrohibits a public
official from using his authority "to secure authori zation of
any public contract in which
he. a member of his family or
any of hi s business associates
has an interest.''
Since Schafrath didn't
propose hiring Starr Mule
until after he resigned, no
impropriety occurred, said
Jodi Govern, the Health
Department's chief la.wver.
Schafrath would not dr1cuss
the contract. Hi s attorney,
Larry Goldin, said there was

nothing improper about it.
Catherine Turcer of Ohio
Citizen Action criticized the
contract.
'·J think the only thing that
looks 'healthy ' about this is
that it 's payola," she said.
Schafrath, a former state sen·
ator. started the $67,600-a-year
Healthy Ohimms job in October
2000 after a political logjam
developed in the Ohio House.
Th en-state Reps . Larry
Householder and Bill Harris.
both Republicans , were
locked in a power struggle
over which man would succeed Ohio House Speaker
JoAnn Davidson.
Gov. Bob Taft announced
Schafrath would be appointed to the Healthy Ohioans
posl , free ing Schafrath's
Senate seat for Harris.

DEAR ABBY: I was very
close to my ~randmother.
My sister, "lube," was not.
Grandma had beautiful silverware that I used to help
her polish when I was a
child. She fromised it to me.
A couple o weeks before she
died, she said that her si lver·
should go to Julie . Grandma
often mixed our names at the
end, and I think she was confused about who was who.
My mother disagreed; the
si lverware was given to
Julie. A few years later, after
she realized how much it
meant to me; Julie gave me
the silverware.
Recently, my father told
me that because our family
has had a run of bad luck,
that Grandma was "cursing"
us from the grave for disobeying her wishes: He has
ordered me to give the silverware back 10 Julie. 1 think
this is nonsense . To suggest
that my sweet grandmother
would send my 14-year-old
nephew severe health problems from "beyond the
grave'' is a vile thing to say
about a woman who loved us
all very much.
I am scheduled for major
surgery in a few weeks (further proof of the curse,
according to Dad). Should 1
return the silverware to Julie,
even though I don't believe
in curses, or should I just
ignore the "curse" and take
the consequences')

The Times Herald-Record, Middletown, N.Y., 011 the bklck·
out:
And so. it seems, into each generation, a massive power failure
must fall.
The Blackout of '03 introduced millions of younger, pluggedin Americans to what life was like on the prairie. OK, maybe
that's an exaggeration. But certainly, it was an echo of what it
was like before cell phones, microwave ovens and PlayStation 2,
all of which were useless when the power went out from Canada
to Canarsie ....
Indeed, the most encouraging aspect of the massive power failure that crippled the New York metropolitan area, along will)
much of the rest of the state and surrounding areas, is the calm
manner in which most people reacted. It may be that having lived
through major blackouts in 1965 and I977 and the tragic terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in 2001, many New Yorkers
have become not only survivors, but also adept ones.. ...
Sure, they wondered why the power was out and weren't
happy that it was. But no one panicked over rumors of terrorism.
Rather. they rushed to buy water and ice and nonperishable food.
They checked out candles and flashlights.
The younger ones watched and learned about power grids and
patience. They rediscovered board games. (Some cheated and
watched portable TVs.) And they cheered when the lights finally
carne back on, having become the newest members of that everlarger club that can ask: "Where were you when the lights went
out in (fill in the blank)?"

My 22-year-old niece
showed up at my brother 's
house wearing hip huggers
and a short tank top. There
was 20 inches of bare skin
between the top of th~ pants
and the bottom of the shirt.
When she turned aroond, it
was hard to miss the fact
that she had three large
Chinese characters tattooed
on the small of her back.
They are pretty, she is pretty
and - other than a few
thousand people at the gym,
the beach, the mall and the
airjmrt - who's goi ng to
see it besides her family?
I asked her what they
meant. She shook her long
blond hair and said , "Oh,
like, peace, energy and harmony. Or something like
that."
"But you looked the symbols up on the Internet? You
did some research, right?"
"Nah, they were on a
poster on the tattoo guy's
wall. I picked them out
myself, though."
So they could really say
"Eat at Joes" Of' "Post No
Bills" or "Big Bob's Tire
Barn" for all she·knows. 1
Sometimes I look at my
flabby arms in the mirror
and wonder what a tattoo

Jim
Mullen

would look like there. What
if I had · gotten one on my
bicep that said "MOM,"
and. now that my biceps are
single ceps, it instead read
" mm''?

Formerly, you had to be in
a motorcycle gang or the
Navy to carry off an if-yousee- me-coming-you- betterstep-aside tattoo. Now, I see
motorcycle gangs roar down
the hi ghway in which the
youngest member is 65.
They're on cell phones trading stock in their 401(k)
plans. They 're about as
threatening as a gang of television weathermen .
When people think of the
Navy now, they don' t think
tattoos, tbey think "JAG."
They don't picture a fearsome bunch of brawling seamen on shore leave, they
picture a jet jockey on an
aircraft earner.

I saw a guy at ,the health
club with a big Harvard "H"
tattooed on his leg. Oooh,
that 's scary - what does he
do? Threaten to tip waitresses 15 percent instead of 20?
"Better watch out, sweetheart, Of I won 't wash my
hands after I use the
restroom!" Wow! What an
out-of-control hothead 1
Tattoos have gone from
"Rebel Without a Cause" to
"S hopper Without a List." I
see so many women with little flowers tattooed above
their ankles at the supermarket in the summer that you'd
think it 'was a genetic mutation . What does it mean?
That thei,r ankles smell like
flowers? That their husbands figured they'd never
remember to give their
wives flowers, so they gave
them th¢ gift of permanent
ones instead?
The tattoo process interests me . I'm picturing this
gnarly guy with a Grizzly
Adams beard, no shirt,, and
hairy, tattooed arms sticking
out of a black leather vest
leaning over my niece's bare
backside with a needle gun
in his hairy. sausage-fingered hands. And she paid
him ? Do you think if he

weren ' t a tattoo "artist"
there'd be any way on Earth
he ' d ever get this close to a
woman?
I'm sure it's not like that
at all anymore. You ciw
probably get them done in a
really clean, sanitary, welllighted, wholesome, highly
professional place. Like the
atrium of a big shopping
mall during the Saturday
rush.
My niece can get away
with wearing low-rise hip
buggers at 22, but what wi II
those Chinese characters
look like when she's 50?
Will he r husband look at her
backside one day and say,
"There's a liver spot on
'ener$Y·' Now it says 'eel·
lulite."' Will The three .char·
acters spread out into six?
Will she go for acupuncture
one day for lower-back pai n
and hear the doctor say,
"Why do you have 'pork

butt?"

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP)
- A moving company began
preparations Wednesday mommg to move the Ten
Commandments from the _
rotunda of the Alabama
Judicial Building to comply
with a federal court Qrder to
remove it from public display.
Patrick Mahoney, director
of the Christian Defense
Coalition, said state officials
told him that the monument
would be moved to another
location within the building
and that moving equipment is
already tns1de. Two state
police officers and two state
police office~s could be seen
studying the monument to
determine how to move it.
Mahoney said building
manager Graham Geor!le told
him that monument Will not
be covered and that he will be
allowed inside to see it once
it's moved. Mahoney said he
doesn' t know whether the
monument's new location will
be accessible to the public.
Protest organizers asked the
crowd outside the Judicial
Building not to rush the building or do anything except pray.
The moving plans began as
a federal judge scheduled a
hearing Wednesday afternoon
to consider a lawsuit to keep a
Ten Commandments monument in the state judicial

building, perhaps the last hope
of hundreds of monument
supporters who have camped
outside for the past week.
The lawsuit, filed Monday
in federal court in Mobile on
behalf of a Christian radio talk
show host and a rastor, says
forced removal o the 5,300pound monument would violate the constitutional 'guarantee of freedom of. religwn.
Another federal judge in
Montgomery ruled last year
that the monument, which
Chief ~ustice Roy Moore
installe~!Wo years ago, violates the oons.tttution's ban on
government promotion of
religious doctnne and ordered
its removal by Aug. 20, but
Moore refused to comply.
The eight associate JUStices
voted Aug. 2 I to remove the
monument, and Moore was
suspended the next day on
charges of violating canons
of judicial ethics.
Attorney General Bill Pryor
filed a motion to dismiss the
ca~e Tuesday afternoon, saying the Mobile court lacks
jurisdiction and the complaint
lacks merit The motion said
that while the associate justices. may disagree with the
federal court order to remove
the monument, the suit wrongly was brought against them
for complyin,g with the order.

Problems
'

lively. Also accepted were
high bids on miscellaneous
playground equipment.
On the recommendation of
Steve Ohlinger. Meigs
Middle School athletic director, it was voted to increase
the adult admission price to
athletic events from $2 to $3.
Approval was given by the
board to combining the principals ' funds from the six elementary schools into primary
and intermediate funds for
the new schooL Estimated
vending profits in the general
fund were approved for transfer into the principals' funds
of all three schools to be used
for things like awards, speakers, and field trips.

Virus attacks
computers worldwide;
Main networks in
Meigs County safe
BY

J.

MILES lAYTON

jlayton@ mydailysentinel.com

RACINE - Meigs County
is being invaded by the
Sobig.F and two other computer viruses which have affected
computer users worldwide.
Sobig has surpassed the infamous LoveBug, Klez. and
Koumikova viruses.
"Viruses are a big problem
everywhere," said Nancy
Barker, tech ··coordinator for
Eastern Local Schools. "The
right virus could devastate a
computer network."
On August I8, the Sobig.F
virus and two other vimses
attacked computers across
the country. Barker said that
the Sobig.F virus can infect
more than 4-5 million people
a minute. The Sobig.F virus.
a "worm" virus so-call ed
because of its ability to infect
computer operating systems
without human intervention,
multiplies by using e-mail
addresses it finds in computers it infects. Experts say it is
the fastest propagation system yet encountered.
Although ~he virus does
not paralyze the computer, it
considerably slows the network to which it is hooked
up, and can bring servers to
a halt with so-called "spam,"
or unsolicited e-mails.
"Some people don't have
anything better to do than to sit
there and make up problems
for the rest of us," said Barker.
An example of a Sobiginfected e-mail would contain the headline : "Subject:
Re:details" and the text
"Please see the attached file
for details". Attachment
names included: your-docurnent.pif, details.pif, yourdetails.pif, thank-you.pif,
rnovie0045 .pif, documentFa!Lpif,
application.pif,
docment-9446.pif.
The Southeast Ohio
Voluntary Educational Coop is the first line defense for
the virus's that have been
attacking three school districts in Meigs County. Their
defenses were breached
causing all three districts to

be infected with multiple
strains of viruses and worms.
Barker said the Eastern
Local School District computer system caught one of
the viruses last week but
was 4uic!Jy able to contain
it. She said there was no
damage and that after a lot
of hard work, everything
was back to normaL
"Viru ses have
been
around forever and thi s is
nothing new," Barker said.
Norton Anti- Virus is
Barker's first line of
defense. She said it is essential program to defending
any computer hooked into
the Internet. Barker constantly updates her computer network with downloads
from Microsoft.
"My advice is to try to
keep ahead of them if you
can," she said.
For anyone infected with
·one of the latest computer
viruses, Barker recommends
touching base with' the
Microsoft web site for advice
and any patches or anti-virus
downloads that may help.
Mark Thomas, technology
coordinator for the Meiss
Local School system, satd
hi s computer network got
infected by the "Nachi"
vjrus last weekend. Thomas
said the Nachi virus "created ha voc" and forced him to
go to each of the district 's
more than 500 computers to
fix the problem.
The Blaster, Nivieda and
the
Welchea
vimses
attacked the Southern Local
district. Tom Weaver. technology coordinator for the
sc hool district , said he
worked three 20-hour days
to cure more than 350 com·
pulers in the district. Weaver
said this will add more cost
to technology budget s
because each school district ·
is going to have purchase
more anti·virus progmms.
The
Meigs
County
Library system, which has
60 computers, has not been
affected by any of the latest
viruses. This system is protected by several anti -virus
protection programs.

MIDDLEPORT
Skateboard enthusiasts will
have to wait through another fall and winter before
they can hit the ramps and
pipes
at
Middleport's
planned skateboard park.
but new plans for the facility include professionallyinstalled equipment.
A group of skaters and
their parents has been raising funds for the new park
since last summer, and preliminary plans were com,
pleted for a park to be constructed by volunteers from
raw materials near the pool
at General Hartinger Park.
Little progress was made on
the construction, and those
plans have been scrapped.
according to Mayor Sandy
lannarelli. in favor of a skate
park in the same location to
include rrofessionally-constructed "Skatewave" pieces
to be moved to the site.
lannarelli said Tuesday
the I 00-by-75-foot park
now planned is expected to
cost $46.640. and said the
organizers have already
raised enough funds to
make the local match needed for a grant sought for the
construction.

"The pieces included in

"Now. we · re looking for

According to lannarelli,
John Gills of Point Pleasant,
W.Va .. who deals in playground and recreation equillment. has provided profe~­
sional renderings of the proposed park . to include a kicker ramp, a skate table. skate
bench. quarter pipes, grind

other features.
.
lannarelli said $1,000 has
been pledged to the project
in the form of a private
donation. and that collection
cans are still out in local
businesses to assist with the
cost of construction. The
skaters and their parent's
will also continue fundraising efforts. lannarelli said.
. "It' s going to be too late to
accomplish much this year.
but I think real progress will
begin in the spring,"
lannarelli said. "The volu~­
teers are determined to get it
built so it can be enjoyed by
young people throughout
the county."

CHARLESTON,
W.Va .
(AP) -Fraud investigators at
the
state
Workers'
Compensation Division are
pursuing more employers and
fewer claimants, using computers and state databases to
track scofflaw companies.
Division staff in June and
July investigated 103 employers as well as I0 workers
reported to be feigning
injuries to collect insurance
checks. Those numbers represent almost a complete tumaround from January, when
260 claimants and three
employers were investigated.
Until this summer, division
investigators relied almost
entirely on bot line tips .and
claim manager referrals to
look into fraud cases, said
Mike Jordan, director of fraud
investigations and prosecutions.
Since taking over the nearbankrupt division in April,
Executive Director Greg
Burton has made fighting
fraud a higher priority.
Burton is struggling to tum
around a system that faces
deficits nearing $3 J?illion.
While fraud is thol!ght to be
endemic among all users of
the insurance system, corporate abuse is generally considered to waste more dollars.
"We're encouraged by the
efforts · we've seen so far,"
said Steve White. of the
Affiliated
Construction
Trades Foundation, who has
criticized the division's lax
enforcement of corporate
fraud. "They've started some
commonsense
procedures
they should have been doing
for years."

Civil ctmense
lawyers weigh in
on judiplal system
CHARLESTON,
W.Va.
(AP) - The 400 or so
lawyers who defend companies sued in West Virginta's
civil courts .,..ant residents to
focus their concern about the
judicial system on the partisan election of judges rather
than runaway juries or plain·
tiffs' lawyers.
"We want to shine a light on
the subject ... (and) make sure
that judges are not inconspicuous," said Marc Williams of
Huddleston, Bolen, Beatty,
Porter &amp; Copen.
"We are not indicting specific judges," he said. "This is
· a systemic problem ... that
needs to be changed."
West Virginia is one of just
six states that still select
judges through partisan elections, said William E.
. Galeota, a lawyer in the
Morgantown office of Steptoe
&amp; Johnson who also serves as
president of the Defense Trial
Counsel of West Virginia.
A committee of the association's members released the
, results Tuesday of their year. long review of the civil justice system.
"Less litigation ·ultimately
means less work for defense
.lawyers like us ... but we're
stepping outside our roles as
advocates,"
said Henry
Jernigan. "We have an interest separate and apart from
:our individual pract1ces .".

Hoffa, Taft try to sway Ohio Teamsters locals

Days earlier, Lovely, who
attended Marsh Fork High
School last year, worried how
he would be greeted at his
new school. That nervousness
has quickly faded .
''Coming _up here hasn't
been as bad as I thought it
would be." Lovely said. "I
didn 't expect to have everybody accept people from
Marsh fork as easily as they
did."
Lovely is among nearly 250
Marsh Fork students in grades
7 to 12 who started school
Tuesday at either Liberty
High or Trap Hill Middle
School.
Both schools are located
about 23 miles away from
their old school along a wind·
ing mountain road frequented
by coal trucks. Sl'Jme students
decided to attend Sherman
High School in neighboring
Boone County to avoid the
drive north on state Route 3.
Marsh Fork is one of three
schools in Raleigh County
and 11 across the state that
did not open this fall due to
consolidation. The school's
closure
leaves
Raleigh
County with four other high
schools, all within about I5
miles of Beckley.

DEP's Crum

Environmental

Secretary
Environmental
Protection
Secretary
Stephanie
Timmermeyer has revoked an
agreement that would have
allowed former State Mining
and Reclamation Director
Matthew B. Crum to stay on
through November.
When Timmermeyer asked
Crum to resign early Friday,
DEP said in a news release
that Crum would remain mining director until Sept. 5, and
continue with the agency as ,
an adviser until Nov. I.
By
Friday
evening,
Timmermeyer had ordered
Crum to clean out his Nitro
office 'over the weekend, and
never return to the building.
DEP officials said.
"He 's not staying on," said
DEP chief of administration
Randy Huffman, who passed
on Timmermeyer's decisiqn
to Crum.
About two dozen coalfield
residents and environmental
activists protested Crum's firing Tuesday morning at
DEP's Charleston headquarters. Timmermeyer was in
Nitro meeting with mining
and reclamation staff, but
issued a statement through
Huffman.
"I made a difficult personnel
decision recently for the good
of the agency and feel that it is
now appropriate to move forward," Timmermeyer said.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP)
The state Housing
Development Fund approved a
$12 million bridge loan Tuesday
designed to save a proposed
Cabela's sporting goods distribution center near Wheeling.
The fund acted to allow
project construction to get
underway by Sept. 15 and
help Cabela's honor contractual commitments to open the
center by May 31, 2004, said
Joe Hatfield, executive director
of
the
Housing
Development Fund.
"This project is a big step for
West Virginia," Hatfield said.
"Cabela's will bring more than
1,000 employees and be one of
the largest collectors of sales
taxes in the state."
The Economic Development
Grant Committee last week
approved a $34 million grant to
the Ohio County Commission.
The funds would prepare the
site of the Fort Henry Business
and Industrial Centre, the
planned home for Cabela's.
But a pending lawsuit last
week held up approval of
bonds that would be issued to
fund the grants. The funds are
now not likely to be available

REMINDER

CLEVELAND (AP) Teamsters President James P.
Hoffa is urging the union's
Ohio members to help elect
Democratic
presidential
hopeful Dick Gephardt. a
departure from the group's
·political strategy a year ago.
In 2002, Hoffa called on
the Teamsters to help re-elect
Ohio's Republican governor,
Bob Taft.
"I'm telling you, you never
had a battle like this, and if anyone in this room thinks you can
sit this out, you're crazy,"
Hoftil said Tuesday to about
200 union members at the
annual meeting of the Ohio
Conference of· Teamsters. "If
the Republicans get elected
and gel a majority, watch out,
because they will do things you
cannot imagine they will do."
A few minutes after Hoffa
spoke, Taft. a key tigure in
President Bush's campaign
in the stale, asked for their
continued support .
Taft was chairman of
Bush 's Ohio campaign in
2000, when the state ended
up delivering more electoral
votes to Bush than any state
other than Texas and Florida.
Bush will be in Ohio on

Labor Day.
Although Taft did not use
the Teamsters event to campaign for Bush, he reminded
the members of Teamsters
locals across Ohio that he
appreciated their support
during his own re-election a
.
year ago.
'T m very proud of the
good relationship that we
have developed over the past
4 1/2 years. and I appreciate
especially your endorsement
of our re-election campaign
last year. I' II never forget
that huge Labor Day parade
over in Toledo and marching
there with that huge
Teamster truck. I mean, that
was awesome," Taft said .
Between their appearances, Hoffa and Taft met
brietly in a separate room.
shook hands and exchanged
compliments.
The
Washington-based
Teamsters endorsed Gephardt,
a congressman from Missouri.
about two weeks ago.
"It's time for us to stand
with him," Hoffa told the
Ohio Teamsters. "I'm going
to come back here and we're
going to talk about rallies,
because this is one state he's

got to carry."
Other Democrats running
for the nomination are former Vermont governor
Howard Dean, Sen. John
Kerry of Massachusetts, Sen.
J?fl" Edwards of North .
Carolina. Sen. Bob Graham
of Florida, former Illinois
Sen . Carol Moseley Braun,
Rep . Dennis Kucinich of
Ohio and dvil rights activist
AI Sharpton.
delegate
Conference
Michael Scarberry, a mem·
ber of Teamsters Local 92 in
Canton. said he thinks members of the union will back
Hoffa's call to support
Gephardt "mostly based on
economic reasons and the
erosion of the rights of organized labor."
Meeting . briefly with
reporters after his remarks to
the Teamsters, Taft acknowledged that Bush should not
disregard Ohio.
"I don't believe' the president can be re-eleq.ed without
carrying the sta~ of Ohio.
That's been true in all recent
elections, and I think it's probably more true today than it
ever has been," he said.

Rough start to school year in some districts
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Classes canceled because
of
water
problems.
Computer viruses. No public transportation. Onefourth of students skipping
the first day of classes.
The new school year got
off to a rough start for some
districts across the state for a
variety of reasons.
In Akron, several suburban
and parochial schools canceled classes on Tuesday
because of a water boil alert . A
malfunctioning valve !loaded
the tiltration plant over the
weekend and forced the shutdown of system pumps.
Akron public schools provided water coolers for
teachers preparing classrooms for Wednesday's start
of classes. Plans were in
place to get emergency shipments of bottled water if
needed for students, said
Karen Ingraham, a spokeswoman for the 29,800-student district.
In Cleveland, Ohio's
largest district with more
than 72,000 students, more
than l 00 computer technicians worked Tuesday to
clean \IP viruses affecting
30,000 computers at 130
locations.
The city's 21,500 public
high school students must
use computers on the opening day of classes Thursday
to get their schedules. Alan
Seifullah,
u
school
1

spokesman. said the district
was confident that the computers' would be ready for
the start of classes.
In northeast Ohio near
Warren. support. stall' of the
small Southington Local
School District went on
strike as school began
Monday, forcing parents to
find ways other than a
school bus to get their children to classes in the 684student district. The school
board and union for school
secretaries, bus drivers and
cafeteria workers have been
unable to agree on a new
contract since the old one
expired in June 2001 and
hadn't resolved their differences Tuesday.
Attendance was a problem
for the Cincinnati school
district despite a back-toschool campaign. About
one-fourth of students didn't
show up on the first day of
classes last week. A total of
30,492 made it to school out
of about 40,000 students in
Ohio's third-largest school
district.
School officials said the
heat, an earlier first day of
school and the fact that
classes began on Thursday
instead of Monday may
have contributed to the low
attendance.
The school district and a
parents' group had promoted
the first day of school by placing I,000 yard signs at every

school and at high-traffic ·
areas. They also asked 166
churches to announce the start
of classes and handed out free
bags of school supplies.
"It has to make me wonder what's wrong that a
quarter of the kids don't
show up the first day," said
Greg Loomis, a ~ice president of Cincinnati Parents
for
Public
Schools.
"Twenty-five percent is
mind-boggling to me." .
In Swanton, about 15
miles west of Toledo, the
school year started with the
school board cutting jobs
because voters rejected two
school tax levies this year.
On Monday night, the
school board voted to elimi·
nate 20 teaching and support
positions, effective Nov. 11.
The cuts amount to onefifth of the district staff that
hold teaching certificates,
including high school and
kindergarten teachers, guidance counselors, librarians
and three positions recently
vacated by a retirement and
resignations.
The school board had
already cut several bus driver jobs earlier this month.
"I'm just really, .extremely
saddened that it's come to
this point," said Linda
Nelson , an elementary
school guidance counselor.

Air Force cadets dismayed over Lt. Gov. gets big labor
endorsement, a change in tactics
underage drinking incident;
officials vow discipline
AIR FORCE ACADEMY
(AP)- Air Force Academy
· ad~ts expressed anger at
,even classmates caught
drinking in a hotel room with
two high-school girls, saying
they were let down at a time
when the school is under
scrutiny over a sex assault
scandal.
"I think it was stupid of
them." said Cadet Erin Shaw,
a
sophomore
from
Monument, Colo. "Under the ·
conditions we are under, you
would think they would know
better. People are walking on
eggshells around here."
Shaw's sentiments were
echoed by several cadets at
the scenic mountain campus
Tuesday.
Lt. Gen. John Rosa, who
took over as SUPerintendent

in July, said the entire 4000member cadet corps will get
a steFn lecture from the
school's commandant, Bng.
Gen. Johnny Weida.
"We're going to try to tum
this around Thursday to a
positive, say, 'Look. if we
knock this behavior off we're
going to move forward,"'
Rosa said Tuesday.
Seven 20- and 21-'year-old
male cadets were caught in an
off-campus hotel room early
Saturday with two female
teens, 16 and 18 years. Those
under 21 were ticketed by
police for drinking.
Rosa. who took command
of the academy in July, said
he and his staff are reviewing
the policies on alcohol , which
has been present. in many of
the sexual assault cases.

Rosa and Weida replaced
commanders who were ousted
afte r failing to correct a eli' mate in which female cadets
said'they were ostracized after

they reporte
tng assau te
by fellow cadets.
The academy, which is not
open to the public and in the
past has restricted access to
cadets, allowed a reporter to
roam the facility and speak
with any cadet willing to talk.
"We heard about alcohol
twice a day during basic
training and if you drank
underage you would be out of
here," said freshman Daniel
Kimmich of San Diego.
"There's just no other way to
put it. There is no excuse for
committing these acts.''

SACRAMENTO, Calif.
(AP) - ·With another powerful labor organization
backing the Democrats'
gubernatorial recall strategy,
Gov. Gray Davis and Lt.
Gov. Cruz Bustamante are
inching closer together despite their icy relationship.
'
The California State Labor
Federation AFL-CIO. an
association of more than
1.300 local unions representing some 2.1 million
workers. voted Tuesday to
endorse Bustamante for
governor in case Davis is
ousted Oct 7.
The recall ballot will have
two pans. Voters first will be
asked to vote on whether to
recall Davis, and then will
choose from a list of 135
candidates to replace him if
he is recalled.
The endorsement of the
lieutenant governor's "No on
recall, yes on Bustamante"
· campaign was a significant
strategic shift for the labor
union, which had earlier led
opposition to the recall and
urged other Democrats to
stay off the ballot.
"It's a very tactical decision
coming out here pretty united
with the message 'no on recall,
no on recall, no on recall and
yes on Bustamante,"' Miguel
Contreras, executive secretarytreasurer of the Los Angeles
County Federation of Labor,
said atier the unanimous vote
by about 600 delegates.
Bustamante welcomed the
endorsement, which follows
si milar support from the
state 's
teacher
union,
California 's Democratic
congressional delegation
and state Senate Democrats.
"''m pleased that the
Democratic family is coming
together to embrace the idea
that voting no is not enough,"
the lieutenant governor told
The Associated Press in a
1elephone interview.

Conference USA Preview

BY CHRIS DUNCAN

Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - TCU coach G!lf'Y
Patterson didn't see a team that deserves a
preseason No. 25 ranking at the Homed
Frogs' scrimmage last Friday.
"We have a lot of work to do to be the
team that people think we're going to be,"
.said Patterson, beginning his third season as
TCU's head coach.
·
Despite Patterson's assessment; the
defending Conference USA co-champions
still figure be the team to beat again this
year.
Six starters return for a defense that led
the nation in rushing yards allowed (65 per
game) and was second with 42 turnovers.
On offense, the returning lettermen
include 2002 Conference USA freshman of
the year Lonta Hobbs and sophomore quarterback. Tye Gunn, who was 4-0 as a starter
before suffering a season-ending knee
injury in October.
Gunn is healthy.again, and Patterson feels
comfortable letting him run the team
despite his limited game experience.
"He 's a leader and you can always tell
when he's around, people are going to listen
to what he says," Patterson said.
TCU shared the 2002 league title with
Cincinnati, which will once again be led by
quarterback Gino Guidugli. The junior set a
school season record for passing yards in
2002.
Both TCU and Cincinnati defeated twotime defending league champion Louisville
in 2002, sending the Cardinals spiraling to a
disappointing 7-6 record. The season culminated in a bowl loss to Marshall and the
departure of coach John L. Smith to
Mtchi~an State.
Lou1sville hired Bobby Petrino, who was
the Cardinals' offensive coordinator in
1998 - when they led the nation in scoring
(40.4 points) and total offense (560 yards).
Southern Mississippi also is looking to
return to the league's top tier after a 7-6
campaign in 2002. The Golden Eagles won
or shared three of the first four Conference
USA championships, but haven't finished
better than third since 1999.
South Florida joins the league this season
and ligures to contend immediately, after
going 9-2 in 2002, including four wins
against Conference USA opponents.
UAB welcomes back quarterback Darrell
Hackney, its top three rushers und three of
its four top receivers fro111 2002.
Tulane also has much of its starting
offense back. including quanerbuck J.P.
Losman and running back Mewelde
Moore. 'I'he Green Wave finished 8-5 in
2002.
Memphis quarterback Danny Wimprine
set school records for passing yards and
touchdown throws in 2002, but he's one of
only four offensive starters back for the
Tigers.
East Carolina and Houston will break in
first-year coaches this season, while Army
continues to rebuild under Todd Berry. ·

: Rackers held onto his job by outperforming

they kept Dorsch around as an insurance policy in case Rackers struggled at some point.

Associated Press

NEW YORK - It's getting
a bit lonely oul there for
Andre Agassi .
One by one, the generation
of American stars who grew
up playing junior tennis
against each other in the
1980s and collected Grand
Slam singles titles together for
more than a decade is calling
it quits.
. Michael Chang los! his final
match as a pro Tuesday at the
U.S. Open in a far more muted
farewell than Pete Sampras'
retirement announcement the
night before. Jim Courier, the
first of the ol' gang to stop.
called Chang's match from the
TV booth.
And Agassi'' He isn't done
yet, not by a long shot.
Still calibrating points perfectly, lacing lines with hit-itas-soon-as-possible groundstrokes, the 33-year-old
Agassi began his run as the
oldest top-seeded player in the
Open era by beating Alex
Corretja 6-1, 6-2. 6-2 in the
lirst round.
. "It's a weird feeling. You
just sort of expect to leave the
dance with the ones you came
with. When they decide that
it's time for them, it's a sad
feeling ," Agassi said.
"I'm certainly proud 10 still
be doing this. this long and a!
this level."
At 20, Andy Roddick is just

AFC North Preview

No Kordell, downgraded Bus,
but Steelers still class of North
BY DAVE GoLDBERG
Assoctated

Press

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been
to the playoffs in eight of Bill
Cowher's 11 seasons as head coach.
Despite a changing cast of luminaries, there's no reason to think they
.won't make the postseason this year.
The problems come when they get
there : The Steelers have made only
. one Super Bowl under Cowher and
lost three AFC title games at home .
On paper, the Steelers are clearly
the class of the AFC North and
Cowher 's inten sity ensures they'll be
that on the field .
Yes. Kardell Stewart is gone and
:Jerome Betti s has been benched, but
ihe talent flow continues. The
Steelers almost always draft well and
safety Troy Polamalu, for whom they
made' a rare upward move in the draft,
could well be the best defensive rookie in the NFL.
; Cleveland made the playoffs last
season for the first time since returning to the NFL in 1999. The Browns
gave Pitt sburgh a battle in their wildcard playoff game, taking a 17-point
lead before losing to the Steelers in
~vertime.

· B-altimore retains · its outstanding
defen se. augmented by the return of
·Ray Lewis. Cincinnati, 2-14 last season. should be better just because
Marvin Lewis is now the coach and
presid ent-general manager Mike
Brown ha s stepped · into the background.
But Pittsburgh remains the clear
favorite. in part because Cowher isn't
afraid to keep upgrading - even
when it involves his biggest stars.
Last week, for example, he
announced Amos Zereoue would start
the season at running back ahead of
the 3 1-yea r-old Bettis , the NFL's I Otl!
lead ing career rusher with 11.542
yards, and the second leading active
runner behind Emmitt Smith.
"He' s disappointed. but he accepted
it." said Cowher, who hopes Bettis
will he fresher down the stretch after
being be set by late injuries the last
two seasons.

to adjust is the emphasis on the passRay Lewi s, who missed much of

What didn' t scrape Ward's skin at "the good lield"the new one carved out of a corn lield at St. Vincent
College near Latrobe. where the Steelers just wrapped up
a soggy training camp - mttated 11 Immensely. A lay~r
of skin burned off his arms and patches formed around hts
elbows.
Was it the fertilizer?
"Everything was up there," Ward said. "I just broke out.
I still went out and did what I had to do. You sull have to
practice, but it wasn't one of the best fields we've practiced on."
The Steelers had to practice on that lield of bad dreams
- · it's where they spent almost the last week and a half of
training camp- because other lields below it were soggy
due to heavy rains.
The Steelers. though, are back in their .comfy practice
confines on the South Side of Pittsburgh. where the grass
really is greener, and it's time for the passing game to get
down to business.
Before posting a first-half passer rating of 106 li!St
week against the Dallas Cowboys, the best the Steelers
could do earlier in the preseason was half as well. Ward.
receiver Plaxico Burress and quarterback Tommy
Maddox say things will improve quickly now that the
Steelers are back practicing on .familiar - and dry
ground.
.
"Field condition means a lot. particularly with the liming between receiver and quarterback," Ward said. "It's
kind of hard to run routes when you can't even get your
proper footing or proper steps right up at Latrobe ."
"Coming back here, we're getting a great week of practice because of better field conditions, and everybody's
back at home sleeping in their own beds," Ward said.
Not that Ward dodged his duties at training camp m
Latrobe. But here on the South Side .. .
"I can give you two-a-days up here," he said. "You ·
come in here. it's a nice facility, nice grass. It makes 11
easy, particularly on us receivers. We run so much. and I
know all of camp, every receiver. the bottom of their feet
was either blistered up or hurting."
Burress agreed . "I think this is where we start really
picking it up and really getting our timing down," he said.
" ... I think everybody 's intensity level goes up a little bit,
knowing you only have two weeks until the first game of
the season. You also ~et to come to the South Side and
play on some good ftelds. You play on nice grass and
develop the timing we need going into that first game."
Although Ward is all for crisp timing. he isn 't so sure
the first team needs to play much on Friday night in the
final preseason game at Carolina. He's figured a way to
develop timing and not risk injury in a meaningless game.
"If we have a great week of practice, then I'm hoping
we don 't play that much , probably one or two series." he
said. "Having a great week of practice shouldn't have to
be a· goal. You should go out and have crisp practices anyway. To get to where we want to go, we have to go out and
get better each week and it all starts at practice ."

Brew Crew downs Reds
CINCINNATI (AP) - Life
in the National League seems
to agree with Doug Davis.
He gave up only an
unearned run in his ftrSt NL
win Thesday night, a complete-game, four-hitter as the
Milwaukee Brewers beat the
·
Cincinnati Reds 7- I.
Davis (1-0) struck out two
and walked one.
"It feels great. I really feel
like I'm getting an opportunity," Davis said. "I just want to
show I can pitch and start."
Davis ( 1.:0) spent the fust
half of the season in the
American Leag.ue with Texas
and Toronto, ~oing 4-6 with a
5.37 ERA tn 13 games,
including 12 starts. The Blue
Jays let the lefty go in July.
and Milwaukee signed him to
a minor league contract.
He had two quality starts but
no decision after joining the
Brewers on Aug. 18.
"He was awesome," said
Geoff Jenkins, who matched
his career high with four hits.
including his second two-run
homer in two nights. "He did a
great job. ·He kept us off the
field and them off the bases."
Wes Helms also hit his second two-run homer in two
nights as the Brewers won
their eighth straight, their
longest winning streak since a
nine-game string in 1997.
With a 56-75 record,
Milwaukee matched its win
total from last season.
"That's always been the
plan," manager Ned Yost said. ·
"I knew we were better than
56 wins. Fifty-six wins was
nothing to shoot for. Deep in
my heart. I knew we'd be OK.
They never quit. When it got
dire, they never let their heads
get down."
Davis also ~ot his first
major-league btl, a two-out
single off Dan Serafini (0-1)
in the fourth inning.
"That was a lucky hit," said

Milwaukee Brewers' Geoff Jenkins (5) is safe at third as the ball gets by Cincinnati Reds' Ryan
Freel (6) in the fifth inning Tuesday in Cincinnati. Jenkins advanced to third on a fly ball by Richie
Sexson. There was no error charged on the play. (AP)
Davis, who was O-for!9 before
the hit. "(Serafini) hit my bat.
It's my first (baning) average,
too. It's low (.091), but it's an
average."
Davis' complete game was
the fifth by Milwaukee pitchers this year.
"He's done a nice job since
he's been here," Yost said. "It
was a hot night. The plan was
to let him go eight (mnings).
He came off alter the seventh,
and I said, 'Can you go one
more?' He had a little gleam in
his eye, and he said, 'I can go
two more."'
Davis said the 86-degree
temperature at gametime didn't bother him.
"It was beautiful out. It felt
good," Davis said. "My last

.two games were day .games.
One was like 95 (degrees),
and the other was in the low
90s. It was nice to get a night
game with no sun beating
down on you."
Serafini, signed by the Reds
out of the Mexican League,
allowed seven hits and four
runs on a pair of two-run
homers in live innings. It was
his first appearance in the
majlilrs since starting for
Pittsburgh against the Chicago
Cubs on Sept. 29, 2000.
"All four of the runs he gave
up were on home runs," Reds
manaller Dave Miley said.
"That s something we haven't
been able to do. That was the
difference in the game."
The Reds took a 1-0 lead in

the first without a hit. Ryan
Freel led off with a sharp
grounder
that
bounced
through Helms' legs at third
base for a two-base error.
Freel moved up on Ray
Olmedo's sacrifice bunt and
scored
on
D'Angelo
Jimenez's sacrifice fly.
The Brewers took a 2-1 lead
in the third on Scott ·
Podsednik's one-out walk and .
Jenkins' 26th home run.
Milwaukee made it 4-1 in the
fourth when Brady Clark led
off with a walk and Helms hit
his 17th homer.
The Brewers added three in
the seventh, including an RBI
single by Jenkins that glanced
off first baseman Sean Casey's
glove.

Reds claim Hummel from White Sox
CINCINNATI (AP)- The Cincinnati
Rc;ds claimed infielder Tim Hummel off
waivers on Tuesday, completing their
trade with the Chicago Whtte Sox.
The Reds sent reliever Scott Sullivan
to Chicago last Thursday along with
money for a player to be mimed.
Hummel was expected to join the Reds
for the rest of their series against
Milwaukee.
Hummel, 24, hit .284 in 128 games for

games at third. 31 at shortstop and six at

The Reds also put outfielder Reggie

15-day disabled list with a kidney problem, and right-handed reliever Joe
Valentine was optioned to Triple-A
Louisville.
The Reds filled their spots by calling
up left-handers Dan Sarafini and Phil
Norton and right-hander Scott Randall.
The Reds have used 49 players, two
shy of the club record, and have already
matched the franchise record by going
through 25 pitchers.

Pirates trade
Giles to Padres
PITTSBURGH (AP) Brian Giles, one of the NL's
most productive players for
five seasons, was deal.t
Tuesday to the San Diego
Padres in a long-rumored
trade that further depletes
the talent-thin Pittsburgh
Pirates.
In an uncommon late-·
season deal involving a
name player going from
one non-contender to
another, the Pirates get
promisin~
left-handed
starter Ohver Perez, minor
league outfielder Jason Bay
and a player to be named.
After acquiring Giles, the
last·place Padres sent AllStar outfielder Randell
White to the Kansas· City
Royals for two minor
league pitchers.
"Over our last 10 or I l
games, we've been pounded by left-handed pitchers
late m the game," Kansas
City general manager
Allard Baird said. "This
cef!ain!r gives us another
optton.
Giles. a San Diego
native, has averaged 35
homers and I00-plus RBis
since being traded by
Cleveland before the 1999
season. He is hitting .299
with 16 homers and 70
RBis this season despite
sittin~ out a month with a
knee mjury.
The Pirates, headed for
an II th consecutive losing
season, are rebuilding from
the ground up with younger
and lower-pnced players.
"There's a lot of disappointment - and satisfaction," the 32-year-old Giles
said. "It's disappointing
because when I signed
here, I wanted to play for a
championship club · here,
but it just dido 't work out.
... But I'm excited to go
back and play in my hometown."

The Pirates have dealt
their top . starting pitcher
(Jeff Suppan), two best
relievers (Mike Williams
and Scott Sauerbeck), two
most productive position
players (Aramis Ramirez
and Giles) and center fielder Kenny Lofton since midJuly. The trades came after
owner Kevin McClatchy
revealed losses of as much

as $30 million since PNC
Park o~ned in 200 I.
That s why the Pirates initially tried to include catcher Jason Kendall in the
Giles trade. Kendall has $42
million remaining on his
$60 million, six-year contract, and the Padres wanted
the Pirates to pay about half
that.
"What was worrisome
from our standpoint was
taking on that salary,"
Padres general manager
Kevin Towers said. "Once
we were able to separate the
two, we were able to agree."
Kendall , Giles' best
friend with the Pirates,
declined to comment on
Giles' departure or his own
status. He apparently was
under the impression he
would be included in the
deal.
.
"Obviously, he wanted to
come to San Diego with
me:''
Giles
said.
"Unfortunately it. dido 't go
through the way we thought
it was going to go through.
From my · understandinjl,
they are still interested m
Jason."
White was hitting .278
with 18 homers and 66
RBis, and now joins a team
contending for the AL
Central title.
White, scheduled to
arrive in Kansas City on
Wednesday, could spell
either Raul Ibanez or center
fielder Carlos Beltran.
"I still haven't decided
where l'mgoing to use him
yet," manager Tony Pena
said. "I've still got a game
to worry about tonight."
The Padres got left-hander Chris Tierney and righthander Brian Sanches for
White. San Diego also will
send some cash to Kansas ·
City, but will save some
money on White's salary
that it can apply to Giles,
who will earn a little more
than $1 million the rest of
the season.
General manager Dave
Littlefield said the Pirates
dido 't wait until the offseason to trade Giles because
the offer was so attractive.
"We felt this was the
trade that made the most
sense and acquired the most
talent," Littlefield said.

POMEROY- One of the
mysteries of tlie universe
may have been solved by
one local priest at the Grace
Church
in
Episcopal
Pomeroy. The Rev. Marie
Mulford has almost discovered how to be in two places
at once on Sundays.
Mulford, 54, tends to the
four Episcopal churches in
the River Bend Episcopal
Ministries, which includes
Christ Church at Point
Pleasant,
St.
John's
Episcopal Church in Ripley,
Grace Episcopal Church in~
Ravenswood and Grace
Episcopal
Church
in
Pomeroy. Since these congregations are so small, they
must share a priest. Mulford
estimates that the size of the
congregation ranges from
40 to 70 people in each
parish .
Like any parish preacher
tending to tiny diverse
flocks in spread out over a
wide area, Mulford gives a
sermon to as many as two
churches each Sunday.
On any given Sunday,
Mulford may preach in
Point Pleasant for the early
bird service and Pomeroy
for the late service at II
a.m. On other weekends,
she will do the same for the
Ravenswood and Ripley
congregations.
Mulford gives basically
the same sermon each
Sunday to two separate congregations. She said there
are some variations, but the
message is the same.
