Local merchants claimed a banner C hristmas season in December 2001, but December sales tax collections only barely surpassed those in 2000. Co\lnty Auditor ' N ancy Parker Campbell received . $86,661.35 in December sales tax revenue last month, compared to $86,470.31 last February. December 1999 sales tax revenue was $99,660.48 . The year's sales tax revenue to date re mains at $7,639.66 below January and February collections last year. Officials believe th e deficit, in part, is· to be blamed on a decrease in new car sales, primarily because of the closing of Bibbee Ford in Middleport last winter, and th e closing of Pamida in Pomeroy early last year. "The December collections do not necessarily reflect a poor retail shoppin g season," Campbell said. ,"Most of th e blame likely lies with the decline in new car sales." The slip in tax collections is of special concern to county officials when combin ed with an anticipated loss in personal property and real estate tax revenue, due to the closing of the South ern Ohio Coal Co. In 2000, the co unty collected S1.1 9 million in local sales tax revenue, and in 2001, $1.15 milliou. Co~nty Com missioners have proposed a hal f-percent sales. tax increase, to appear on the May 7 ba llot. Proceeds from that hike, however, would not benefit general ope rations, but instead the county sheriff's budget and jail operation. , .

The young woman said she agreed to the arrangement only after her stepfather with a gun in his hand threatened to kill her mother, Narda Goff. She said she never told her mother about the threat. Mrs. Goff, 43, is accused of helping her husband,John, get the girl pregnant at age 16. She faces up to 15 years ili. prison if convicted. Her trial was entering its second day Thursday. TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) - Hand.! shot up all around the room when Tim Hagan asked a group of seniors how many paid more than $100 a month for prescription drugs. The Democratic candidate for governor knew they would. Hagan spent Wednesday morning touring health care and senior centers, telling folic$ the state needs to put more money toward care for the uninsured and to cut the cost of prescription drugs. One stop came at a senior center where each month a chartered bus takes older folks on a three-hour round trip to Canada so they can buy cheaper medicine. Some said they could save hundred.! of dollars going on the trips bec'ause Canada puts a cap on its prices. As many as 100 make the trip. ' "That's a damning indictment of the whole system,'' H agan said. Hagan said he would support a plan for the state to·buy prescription drugs at lower costs and pass the savings on to consumers. Hagan added that he would back a bill proposed by Senate Democrats, includmg his brother Sen. Bob Hagan of know what caused T9meka Isreal, 27, to lose control of her car about 4: IS p.m, on a city street, but alcohol was suspected. Isreal was pronounced dead at the scene. Her sister, Polly Ann Isreal, 32, was pronounced dead at Grant Medical Center, police said. Pamela Matthews, the lsreals' cousin, was in serious condi- . · tion at Grant with head, chest and abdominal injuries, a nursing supervisor said. Her son, William Mann, was in fair condition at Children's Hospital. ACLU fighting · requirement CLEVELAND (AP) - The American Civil . Liberties Union sued the suburb of Maple Heights on Wednesday to overturn a requirement for a home inspection by the city building department before children can be enrolled in p~blic school. Ray Vasvari, Ohio ACLU legal director, said the lawsuit was filed . in U.S. District Court on behalf of three families in Maple Heights. He said one family was unable to register a child for kindergarten. The others experienced costs stemming from the inspection requirement, such as tuition to send a child to private school. "The point this lawsuit is making is that the city has a right to enforce its building code, and the school district has a right to make sure students are residents," he said. Youngstown. That bill would lower drug prices by giving drug makers access to a huge pool of potential customers who would be offered prescription drug discounts. In return, drug makers would provide the state rebates, which Ohi'!l would pass along to pharmacies that discount drug prices. · Hagan called Republican Gov. Bob Taft's proposal to provide discounts to the elderly and disabled through the Golden Buckeye Card "nonsense." H~ said the program would benefit few and would not cut costs for the uninsured. Orest Holubec, a, spokesman ·for Taft, said the governor's program is specifically designed to bring discounts to seiners who don't have insurance. "Governor Taft· has talked to seniors and believes them when they .tell him this disc.ount would help,'' Holubec said. Hagan said his push to·cut prescription drug costs will be a major issue in his campaign until the November election. A group of seniors· who had just finished a lunch of noodles, fruit salad and oatmeal cookies said something must be done. "! think it's outrageous,'' said Frances Laubenz, 81, who spend.! $300 a month on medicine. "I have to do without other things. My medicine comes first. "I can't buy new clothes. I'm wearing clothes I wore five or six years ago." Barbara Wapplehorst, 61, said her 15 prescriptions for her heart, diabetes, and high blood pressure cost her $150 in copayments each month. She said its tough to pay the heat and electric bills . · . "I'm behind,'' she said. "It's coming to a point where they're going to start turning things off." · · Before touring' the senior clntet, Hagan also toured two health care cen- · ters that serve uninsured and homele~s people. Hagan said one idea he had for help.ing out the centers would be for the state to cover their .operating expenses, such as water, gas and electricity. He said that would allow . the state to help without interfering in decisions about how to provide health• care. "We need to look at the state for more help," s'aid Hagan's running mate Charleta Tavares, a Columbus city cou~­ cilwoman. "It should be a partnership."

Panel may delay vote DEAR ABBY: I would like your opinion about a family situation: One is my sisters is marrying my other sister's ex-husband. My younger sister, "Charlo«~," · and her husband, "Mel," were divorced because she was unfaithfa!. My other sister, "Kara," split from her husband because they cheated on each other. Charlotte has three boys and Kara has tw~ ' girls. .· . · Mel and Kara were both hurting, so they began to console each other. Well, one thing led to another. They have been living together fo r so me time. This has devastated Charlotte. She and Kara used to be : close. They no longer speak. Kara has announced that she and Met' are being married in a formal wedding. Kara has asked our broth- Dear Abby ADVICE er to walk her down the aisle, but he has reservations about the wisdom of her decision. He- feels his sister has crossed the line. The wedding is set for June. Charlotte refines to allow her sons to take part in the ceremony. She plans to take them to Florida that week. Abby, do you think it is wrong for Kara to marry Charlotte's ex-hus- band?- BIG SISTER SuB DEAR BIG SISTER SUE: What I think about the propriety of this forthcoming union is immaterial. What I am having trouble understanding is why Mel, whose marriage to Charlotte ended because she cheated on him, would want to marry another woman who cheated on her husband. DEAR ABBY: I am a 25-yearold woman who is dating a 47year-old man I'll call Roy. My problem is I don't know how to break it to him that I am no longer interested. It seems to me our relationship is based solely on sex. Roy tells me all the time how much he loves me, but I think it's ·the sex he loves. From my perspective, we really don't have anything in conunon. .H e is currently separated from his wife and has a 16-year-old daughter who doesn't know about me. Roy • lives in another state, but we see each other often. Last week he told me that when his divorce is final, he wants to marry me. I was OK with it until I did some serious thinking. Roy asked me if I had a problem with his age, .and I said no - although the fact that he's old enough to be my father does bother· me. I don't know what to do, Abby. If I break it off with him, he's not going to take it well - I just know it. But ifi let our relationship con: tinue, I'll feel like I'm leading him on. He's talking about relocating to . be with me. How should I handle TRAPPEJ) IN this mess? - Reader should see allergist Question: Last year I had sinus surgery to remove a polyp and a pocket of infection. I'm certainly better, but I still have problems with the right side of my nose being blocked. l've been back tQ my Ear, . Nose and Throat surgeon several times, and he has given me different medicines that, unfortunately. haven't made much difference in my symptoms. He says that my surgery was a success, and there isn't anything more he can do. I certainly don't think ihe surgery was a success. VVhat else can I do for my blocked nose? A~swer: Scientists debate the evolutionary reasons for the presence of air cells within the bones of the skull - the spaces we call sinuses. Some think it allows the adult shape of the human face without increasing the weight of the head as would occur if the bones were solid. Others think the sinuses have a contributing role in the resonance of the voice and also a minor involvement in the important roles of humidifying and warming .the air we inhale. Personally, I · think the sipuses exist principally as a source of misery. Facial pain, pressure sensation, nasal discharge and often fever are symptoms of sinus infection - what most of us call sinusitis. These symptoms are responsible for about 12 million doctor visits each year! (Substantiating evidence for my assertion about the reason for sinuses.) Most sinus symptoms are caused by Family Medicine blockage of the sinus openings, which, in turn, results in pressure within the sinus spaces as well as an accumulation of fluid. Most often the blockage is due to a viral infection (a conunon cold) or an allergy. Most colds clear 1,1p without serious ·problems ensuing, but sometimes a bacterial sinus infection develops. Bacterial infections are treated with at least a twoweek coune of antibiotics. Usually this is successful in stopping the symptoms and elitninating the underlying infection. In individuals who have polyps or extensive damage within the sinus space - this would be the pocket of infection you had - surgical intervention is necessary to bring about resolution of the infection. Sinus surgery is effective in about 80 percent of individuals. Successful, as you have noted, can mean different things to you and to your doctor.You were expect. ing total resolution of your nasal syruptoms. He was expecting removal of the polyp and clearing of the extensive infection within the sinus that you called "removing a pocket of pus."

Which reminds me - I've notice~!._ over my years of practice that it is much ) easier to talk than it is to conununicate. Be sure to communicate with your doctor! · You mentioned in your letter that your ENT doctor now thinks that you have non-allergic rhinitis. This is fancy doctorspeak for a congested nose that is not due to allergy. This is certainly possible, but I doubt it in your case. I say this because you had a nasal polyp, which is almost always due to an underlying allergy. I'd suggest that you see a board certifi.e d allergist for evaluation of your condition. Hopefully, this will reveal both the call5e of your chronic. nasal congestion and an effective treatment for it. If on the other hand no allergic cause is identified, you will certainly have earned the diagnostic "non~allergic rhinitis." This chronic condition is quite annoying for few treatment methods that help. Unfortunately, the success rate for them is substantially lower than it is for those with allergic rhinitis.

COUPON Rileigh FerSALEM CENTER rell, on Jan. 28 at the Cabell March was the theme of the WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush faces his lint formal defeat at trying to put conservatives into federal appeals court seats in what could be a prelude to ~ battle over a Supreme Court vacancy. The showdown over U.S. District Judge Charles Pickering of Mississippi may be put off for a week, however, as Republicans try to save the nomination from going down in flames in the Senate Judiciary Committee. With committee Democrats prepared to vote down Pickering's nomination Thunday, Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said he would probably request a one-week delay in the vote. Judiciary Committee members have the right to place a weeklong hold on any nomination. · A delay would give the GOP time to try to sway or pressure Democrats into sending the nomination to the-Senate or give Pickering time to withdraw his name from consideration.

I Oom - 4pm : : • LOS ANGELES (AP) - CBS has offered David Letterman $31 .5 million a year to stay on as "Late Show" host, upping an offer ABC has reportedly made to get him to defect, a network source said. Letterman, whose contract with CBS expires this year, would also receive performance bonuses and additional salary increases in future years; said the source, who spoke to The Associated Press on Wednesday on condition of anonymity. Letterman reportedly earns $30 million a year for CBS, and ABC's offer is for S31 million. ABC also has offered Letterman his own studio in the network's Times Square complex in New York, according to Entertainment Weekly magazine. Word of the offer came to light last week. Letterman, who has long been No. 2 behind NBC's Jay Leno in the late-night comic wars, has been unhappy with CBS' older prime-time audience and the weak local news programs on CBS affiliates leading in to his show. He has been at CBS since 1993. WASHINGTON (AP) - The Bush administration said Wednesday that welfare recipients who are required to take con\munity service jobs should be entitled to the minimum wage, backtracking on one controversial element of its welfare plan. The welfare plan, unveiled last week, made it clear that these jobs should not be covered by minimum wage and other worker protections laws. But on Wednesday. Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson said in a statement that "this administration has absolutely no intention of abandqning those very important protections." ''President Bush and I will insist that welfare recipients receive at least the rminimum wage for the hours that they work, including community• service jobs;'Thompson said. Last week, the administration released a 36-page plan for renewing the landmark 1996 welfare overhaul. Its recommen~tions to Congress include a significant increase in the number of people each state must put to work, and an increase in the number of hours that each person must be at work. States could meet this requirement by helping welfare recipients get regular private sector jobs, or by putting them in government-created, community- service jobs. The plan ~sserted that welfare checks ;rhunclay. Mllrch 7. 2002 given to families who are participating in "supervised ' work experience or supervised community service are not considered compensation for work performed. Thus, these payments do not entitle an individwl to a salary or to benefits provided under any other provisidn of law." This would represent a reversal of a 1997 decision by the Clinton administration. After a tillsle over the issue with labor unions and. other.;, President Clinton 's Labor Department ruled that welfare recipients participating in community service programs were entitled to the minimum wage and other worker protections. Minimum wage is $5.15 per hour natit;mally, higher in some stales. States may count cash welfare and food stamps in calculating "wages." The issue turned out to be largely irrelevant in most states. With a booming economy, it was relatively easy for people to find jobs, and few states created community service programs. But in New York City, for example, where there is a large workfare program, welfare recipients get paid at least rllinimum wage. Under the Bush plan, many more people would be required to work, and most observers believe that states will be forced to create similar types of conununity service jobs. The issue .was already prompting out- Hurried passenger sentenced JONESBORO, Ga. (AP) -There'll be no cheering in the stands at Univer.;ity of Georgia football games this fall for a loyal fan who dashed past security guards to catch a flight to a game, shutting down the Atlanta airport for four hours.

Gary Condit's Wife has been turned down in her demand for an apology for a "Law & Order" episode about a politician and a missil)g aide. The show's producers rejected Carolyn Condit's appeal and NBC, ·which airs the long-running series, concurred with the producer.;' announcement Wednesday, a network spokeswoman said. . . The episode aired Feb. 6 and carried the series' standard disclaimer that the story "does not depict any actual person or event." "We beijeve there's no basis for her claim.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Cokie Roberts is leaving her -Sunday ABC ti.lk show in the fall, making the announcement as the news division is f?iled by reports that the netw.ork is hoping to replace Ted Koppel with David Letterman. Roberts said she made the decision 18 months ago when she ·was renegotiating her contract with ABC. She and Sam Donaldson began anchoring "This VVeek" in 1996. "We've started very preliminary conversations about what other role ! .might play at ABC,"Roberts said Tuesday. She will also COI)tinue reporting for National Public Radio and Writing a column and books. I . . ABC made no announcement regarding Donaldson beyond November. "We haven't even had an opportunity since Cokie's announcement late yesterday to speak with Sam about his ideas rage from unions and others. "We cannot abide using public funds to create millions of second class jobs," Linda Chavez-Thompson of the AFL-CIO said Tuesday. On . Wednesday, Chavez-Thompson said the plan still wouldn't pay people enough. "Real jobs r~ust be created so they receive the pay that it takes to raise a family and lift a family out of poverty," she said. In many states, welfare benefits are so low that they would not cover minimum wage .for 24 hours a week, as required by the Bush plan, even after the value of food stamps is included. In these states, the administration behevcs that the work requirement should be reduced as 1111.\Ch as needed to prevent sub-minim&m compensation, a Bush aide explained. A senior White House official said the administration never intended this language to wind up in the plan and moved to back ofl)t as soon as top officials realized it ·was there. Still, a top welfare official at HHS, Andrew Bush, told the Los Angeles Times that the provision was included because community service jobs are not the same as regular jobs. " It's intended to give them some work experience and give them an tinderstanding of work," Bush told the Times for a story published Wednesday. "That is not something that should be subject to min.itnum· wage laws." for the future of the broadcast," network spokesma n Jeffrey Schneid~r said Wednesday. Bandits free 12 hostages VALLEY STREAM, N.Y. (AP) -Twelve employees were freed before dawn Thursday after being held captive during a failed armed robbery at a Long Island Staples store, police said. Armed bandits apparently took the hostages after an attempted robbery went awry, police spokesman Inspector Pete Maruza said. Four people believed to be involved in the botched robbery attempt were arrested, authorities said. Police said one suspect was arrested after pretending to be one of the freed hostages, another was picked up after police found her in a cat in the store's parking lot, the third was found hiding in the store's ceiling and the fourth was also found in the store.

The Dow Jones industrial average gained 140.88 points to close at 10,574.29 . A series of recent econorllic reports has indicated the recession, which began in March 2001, probably had ended and will be recorded as one of the mildest in U.S. his~ tory. The picture of the economy painted by Wednesday's reports are . consiUent with an· economic assessment Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan gave Congres~ last week: His message: The country, bruised by the recession and the terrorist attacks, is on the road to recovery but Americans shoUld not expect a red-hot rebound. Because consumers kept buying throughout the slump, they will have less pent-up demand. That means sv:nding probably will not 'tise as quickly as in past rebounds, Greenspan and other economists said. The Fed survey said retailers m Boston, New York, ' Philadelphia, Atlanta, Dallas, Richmond, Kansas City and San Francisco reported "modest improvements" in sales, but for other a~eas sales were mixed. Some regions said that home furnishing's and appliances were selling briskly, while other areas noted that car sales remained solid. Many business contacts in the bele~guered manufacturing sector told the Fed that they expected to increase production by the second half of this year. Factories in Cleveland and Chicago raised automotive production' in response to higher demand. Some manufacturers noted a slight improvement in demand for high-tech products. Others said they were not cutting as many factory workers as they did last"year. Manufacture rs, hardest hit by the ailing national economy, have been showing more indications of emerging from a 1 1/2-year slump. ' In the go,•err•ment's facturing report, orders for · transportation equipment posted the biggest gain, rising 4.1 percent in January, Orders for cars went up a solid 0.8 percent Excluding orders for transportation equipment, factory orders rose 1.2 percent in January, the fourth increase in the past six months. In the high-tech sector, orders 'for computers went up 4.8 percent and orders for semiconductors rose 14.2 percent. These advances are a good sign for the sector, which took a big hit when compani es scaled back capital spending in response to the slump. Higher demand for machin- . ery pushed orders up 1.4 percent in January. Primary metals, the ca tegory tljat includes steel, saw orders rise 3 percent in January after falling th e previous two months. A weak spot: Orders for electrical equipment and household appliances tell 4. 9 percent in January.

If the 2002 elections follow historical patterns, Republicans will get clobbered; lose control of the House and fall further behind in the Senate. But the pattern may well be broken. Since 1900. the party controlling the White House has lost House seats in every off-year election except three: 1902,1934 and 1998. The average loss in the first off-year election for a new president is 35 House seats and three Senate seats. · But the House Republican campaign chief, Rep. Tom Davis ofVirginia, thinks several factors will make this year cijfferent. And How•rd Wolfson, executive director of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, concurs that histQry can't be relied upo\). · First. according to Davis, parties in control of the White House usually lose big in off years because new presidents tend to bring (:!rge numbers of new members in on their coattails, and they are vulnerable in the next election. "President Bus~ didn't sweep anyone in," Davis _said in an· interview, "so there's no one to be swept out." Indeed, in 2000, the GOP lost two House seats and four Senate seats. Republicans have been steadily losing House strength since 1996, following their 52seat triumph in 1994. It's not entirely true that new presidents normally have coattails. In fact, in close elections - 1960, 1992 and 2000- their party may actually lose seats . Or, as in 1976, pick up just one seat. And in the next election - as in 1962, 1978 and 1994 - they may keep on losing. Democrats lost 22 House seats in 1960 and another one in 1962. In 1978 they lost 15. In 1992, Democrats lost 10 House seats. Morton · Kondr.Icke COLUMNIST Good Luck EASTERN in the Division IV District Finals WolfSon said, " History doesn't win seats, and we certainly aren't relying on abstract concepts this year." Instead, he said, Democrats will w.~ge customized campaigrls in contested districts- but apparently with some common themes. Democrats picked up three House seats· in 1996 running ag.rinst the 1995 partial shutdown of the federal government and an alleged · $270 billion cut in Medicare pushed through under then-Speaker Newt Gingrich, R - Ga. WolfSon acknowledged that Democrats have some work ro do making voters as aware of the corporate alternative minimum tax cuts as they were of the 1995 shutdown. Democrats have also served notice that they plan to campaign against GOP plans to privatize Social Security even though the Bush administration and House Republicans won't push for Social Security refonn this year. Democrats have yet to figure out how to exploit another ripe issue - Bush's taX cuts. An lpsos-Reid poll released last week indicated that by more than 70 percent, voters favor delaying the taX cuts to pay for a prescription drug benefit for seniors, benefits for the unemployed, education improvements and anti-terror expenses. However, top Democratic leaders have shied away from calling for the postponement of the cuts, apparently· out of Gustified) fear that the GOP will accuse them of Wanting to "raise" taXes. l'p say the main factor in this year's elections is the absence - so far - of compelling Democratic issues. Even the economy seems to favor the GOP. So history just might be ignored. · This trend could persist this year, too. But Davis' second claim is that the modern public likes divided government and votes against the party in the White House to cstabli~h it. Davis noted, historically, voters who dislike a president use the midterm elections . to take out thei"r a,11ger on his party's con.: gressional candidates. But this year. he said, "The only people ·who are mad at Bush are . those who would never vote for us anyway. The president's popularity suggests we can avoid the midterm curse." This claim - that fewer people than normal are unhappy with Bush - is· a reverse twist on the· widespread assumption that Bush's popularity as a wartime president will help congressional candi· dates of his party. · And on top of all that, Da\~S believes that reapportionment will give Republicans a net pickup of as many as eight seats, meaning that Democrats will have to gain 14 seats in November to win control .0 (the House. Wolfion disputes Davis' reapportionment estimate, citing such experts as Roll Call's Stu · Rothenberg and the National Journal's Charlie Cook, who put the (Morton Ko11dr<Uke is exerutive editor GOP's advantage at two seats or less.

LOUIS (AP)- At leas t for now, the St. Louis Rams have scrapp ed plans to • mee t with free age nt wide receiver Cris Car ter, venting frustration over the longtime Min.nesota Viking's inability to come to town as sch edul ed. " He. supposedly got tied up in Cleveland" while visiting this week with the Browns, Rams coach Mike Martz said Wednesday. "So we' lljust move on. We had a lot of things set up, and a lo t of people made plans for this visit. It's been set for a \\reek." Carter grew up in Middl etown, O hio, imd starred at Ohio State. St. Louis ca nc eled the visit after Car ter called the Rams to say he would be delayed , affecting at least thre e Rams coaches and four players Martz said had arranged tp eir schedules for Carte r's visit. Rams quarterback Kurt Warner was schedul ed to have dinner with Ca rte r on Wednesday evening. "M aybe in another week or so we'll revisit this," said Martz, a sti ckler for player promptness.for practice and team meetings1.To him, Car ter's no-s how is "a n indicatio n to· me.'' "Maybe I'm reading more into this than is really there. And if I am, then we'll apologize and we'll j ust ~evisi t thi s thing," M artz said. "But it 's just not how we do things. I th ink it's more the agent than it is Cris. I don 't believe it was Cris. But that's j ust not how we do thi ngs. We wish him well in hi s endeavors and we'll move on from here." . Ca rter said he thought he had g iven St. Louis plenty of noti ce that he would have to delay his visit, saying that a reason he got behind sc hedul e was that the Browns had several free agen ts in for visits, and the physicals ran late. When asked if he had any idea where he would end up, Carter said, ''I' m not su re at this point. Whoever I'm supposed to be with will happen, and it'll ·work itself o ut." Carter had called Martz several times before free agen cy, selling himse lf to the Rams and saying how mu ch he wanted to play in a Super Bowl before his career was over. To some, the hastily arranged C leveland visit was seen as a bid to create leverage with the Rams in contract talks. N.FL · Pro Baseball MANY MORE QUAliTY PRE-OWNED VEHICLES TO CHOOSE FROM. ..

OPOLCYNOMYDAILYTRIBUNE.Cb¥ TUPPERS PLAINS - Taken on paper, Friday's Division IV district tournament final between Eastern and Mowrystown Whiteoak begins to look like a dead heat. Both teams enter with identical 20-3 records and both won their respective conference;. Both teams · average 67 points per game and surrender under 50 points per game, suggesting that both have dealt with many opponents this season quite handily. " I think it's almost a mirror image of ourselves," said Eastern head coach Howie Caldwell. "You look at how many points they score per game and how .inany we do, it's very comparible. The defense, very . comparible. The records are the same. "Everything you see is almost a mirror copy. T hey're almost a carbon copy of ourselves," he added. Whiteoak, the South ern Hills League champion coached by Pat H ines, however, is a largely seniordominated squad, w ith five senio rs in its first seven players. '"They have been building this club for three years," said Caldwell. "Three of th ese kids are threeyear varsity starters. I think they are .looking at it as their year." Caldwell thinks that Whiteoak's experience is the factor which may give the Wildcats a slight Friday, 8:15p.m. edge and possibly put the Eagles · in the ..__ position of.underdogs heading into Friday's contest. "We don't have a great deal of experience," he said. "We're coming off a state tournament team that lost four starters.

"He asked if! would be happy with younger players," Alomar said. "I said ' 'yes.' I knew it .W2S going to be a youni! and talented team and wanted to be part of it. In the end it didn't matter." Shapiro, who replaced John Hart as Cieveland's GM at the end oflast season, said he never deceived Alomar. , "I'm sorry Robbie is hurt and feels betrayed, but you can't go back and change history,'' Shapiro said. "I clearly stated to him that I could not guarantee anything. People who guarantee anything in this game set them- selves up to be a liar." . Shapiro said gwner Larry Dolan's d~ire to cut payroll and the Mets' off'er were key factors in completing the deal that sent Alomar and two minor leaguers to New York for outfielder Matt Lawton, reliever Jarrod Riggan and minor-leaguers Alex Escobar, Billy Traber and Earl Snyder. Ironically, Escobar met with . the. media on Wednesday just before Shapiro to talk about tearing , the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.·Escobar will have reconstrucrive surgery and miss the entire 2002 season.

Alomar exclunged ~rm greetinS' with several Indians and waved to fans in the stands when he emerged from the Mets' clubhouse. "Hey · there, Robo. Great to see you.

Arkansas said to have lost confidence in Richardson LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) · - Arkansas told Nolan : :Richardson's lawyer the school replaced him because it lost confidence in the coach's ability, according to correspondence released . Wednesday. Rlcherdaon Chancellor John Wliite ' - and athletic director Frank : Broyles believed Richardson's remark that "they can pay me off' and I'll be on my way" would upset fans and hurt the program, lawyer Fred Harrison wrote to Richardson lawyer John Walker. Since White announced Friday that Richardson was out, Arkansas had offered no explanation beyond citing a no-excuses-necessary clause under the "Termination at · Convenience of the University" section of Richardson's seven-year, S1.03 million-ayear contract. Under a request made under the state Freedom of lnformation Act, the university provided copies of correspondence among the parties to The Associated Press. Harrison said Richardson was released after saying privately and publicly that he wanted the school to buy out his contract under its terms of $500,000 for its six remaining years. · Harrison also said the coach · was not entitled to a reason under provisions of the contract, but he would give him one anyway ~ and echoed previous statemen.ts th~t Richardson asked to have hts contract terminated despite public statements that he wanted to stay as coach. "Chancellor White and Coach Broyles concluded that the comments by Coach Richardson th,at h~ could be bought out of his contract immediately indicated a lack of his confidence in the basketball program and leadership for it,'' Harrison wrote. "They also believed th~se comments to have a negat1ve 1mpact on fan support and other aspects of the program.'' Richardson intends to ask Arkansas system. preside~t Alan Sugg to teVJew Whtte s decision. Although White initially gave Richardson a deadline of noon Monday, Hamson on Wednesday asked Walker to make his case by the close of business Friday. "Dr. Sugg will then review the termination and nuy also wish to meet privately with Coach Richardson," Harrison said. An appeal to Sugg was seen as a prerequisite for possi~le legal action by Richardson I · We've Got Your Sports CO . , d ·~ere W' l . · · . · ,;,..~____,.,;:....----------'""':--:"'__________;....______ 7 I J\ • I' ' Tessa Paige Will against . the university.

I NEW YORK (AP) Wall Street played it safe Thursday, pausing for mild profit-taking ,even as more evidenc e of a recoVering economy flowed in. Analysts said investors, while ·increasingly optimistic that a turnaround · is beginning, are not convinced the market's latest rally, which has included a string of triple-digit gains in the Dow Jones industrials, will las.t. Wall Street was also concerned that a positive assessment of the economy by Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan might signal higher inter. est rates. The Dow closed down 48.92, or 0.5 percent, at 10,525.37, losing some ground from a 140-point gain Wednesday. Broader stock indicators also dipped lower. The Standard & Poor's 500 index slipped 5.23, or 0.5 percent, to 1,157 .54. The Nasdaq composite index finished down 8.77, also ·• 0.5 percent, at 1,881.63.

REED BREEQ®MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY - Ohio vehicle and boat buyers can now buy titles for their cars and boats in any county in Ohio, but the change in Ohio law could mean a loss of revenue for Meigs County. The Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles implemented the new cross-county titling system in Franklin, Fairfield, Licking, Lucas, Madison and P.ickaway co unties in February as part of a pilot program. On Monday, th e service wenc statewide. . State officials, including Lt. Gov. Maureen O'Connor, say the new policy will benefit residents by way of added convenience. "Cross-county titling saves time," said O'Con nor, who serves as director of the Ohio Department of Public Safety. "The burden of having to purchase a title in the county of residence has been removed, allowing auto dealers and customers to have their vehicles and boats titled "'Y'vhere in Ohio." While the buyer's county of residence will receive che sales tax revenue on the vehicle regardless of where the title is purchased, and the one-tench percent poun dage on tax collections, the county which processes the tick will keep a $5 title fee charged by the lo'cal Clerk of Comts. Because Meigs County has only one new car dealer, this could mean a serious loss of rev~n u e for the Meigs County Title Office, according to Clerk of Courts Marlene Harri- Area residents develop skills for work Job advaucement and en'hancemenl, and resume and interviewing skills as well as comp_uter ski/Is are at the center rif a four-week series of computer classes offered to adults through the Appalachian Center for .Economic Networks at Eastem and Southem high schools. .The Jump Start Worlif~rce Readiness Class is a ftee four-u~tek series if evening classes where participants learn interpersonal communications and transferable technology skills necessary to secure employment.
