PleiiM IH Sefety, AS BY J. MILES LAYTON Sentinel correspondent BY CHARLENE HOEFliCH News editor POMEROY - Reports on progress of building projects m the Meigs Local School District were given by Superintendent William Buck:ley at Tuesday night's meeting of the Metgs Local Board of Educatidl'l. · A projection thAt the new Meigs Middle School will be completed by the end of February was made by Buckley. He said that probably the next decision to be made by the board will be whether to move students into the building in March, or·wait until the parking lots are paved. which could be sometime around the end of April. . He reported the roofing is being completed, painting of classrooms is underway, lighting is P.artially in, and the boilers wtll be started up in late December. "Everything is coming along real well. right on schedule," he added . . As for the new elementary school under construction on Ohio Route 124 near Rutland, he projected completion in June. Buckley noted that his biggest concern is cost overrun. That is due, he explained, because the original masonry contractor had to be taken off the job and a new contractor. hired in its place. "Another issue we have to deal with there," said ~ . superintendent, "is the Mft! behind the building." The estimated cost of repair, he reported, is about $1.3 million. Suggested options for repair have included removal of tons of dirt and replacing with stone, or building a retaining wall. . Buckley also noted that some money originally scl)equled to be used for tearing down the old school buildings might be transferred in to tile construction cost. Buckley did say that there .will be no change in plans for tearing down the old Rulland building and transferring the land to the Rutland Fire Department for a new firehouse.

The thefts have horse owners in that area and central Ohio on the alert because they think the activity is related and the timing is intentional. A dozen horse auctions take place each Friday in Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, and there is concern that the horses were taken to one of those sales. A pair of chestnut Arabian horses were stolen on Nov. 28 from their pasJure near Goshen in Clermont County, 80 miles southwest of Columbus. . The next theft occurred on Dec. 5 at a site 20 miles farther north, near Waynesville in Warren County.

NEW YORK (AP) While . fans were chanting his name at Cooperstown and the World Series, Pete Rose was slowly gaining his most valuable ally with Bud Selig: time . · The negotiations between the commissioner and the career hits leader have been going on for more than ·a year, according to a highranking baseball official. The talks, which had been secret until this week, became public following a . meeting between Rose and Selig last month · in Milwaukee. Several baseball. officials, all speaking on the condition of anonymity, said the sides appeared to be working their way toward a deal in recent weeks, but no agreement had been reached to end the ban, which Rose agreed to in August 1989 following an investigation of his gambling. While Selig is willing to allow him back in, Rose has to admit he bet on baseball as part of any agreement He has been pushed to make the admission by Hall of Famers Joe Morgan and .

Asked what triggered the change, the official said it was "j ust the passage of time." · Reinstatement would make Rose eligible for the Hall of Fame, and that mere possibility angered Hall · member Bob Feller, a fellow Ohioan who has been vocal in his opposition to ending the ban . "It's a publicity stunt by him and hi s people,'' Feller said Wednesday. " l,' m tired of talking about it,. I' m fed · up. He's history;" . Feller was among a group of Hall of Famers who / ! ' threatened to walk out of ceremonies at Cooperstown in 2000 if Cincinnati Reds .broadcaster · Marty Brennaman had used his induction speech to campaign ' for Rose.

In addition to becoming eligible for the Hall ballot, an end to the ban would allow the former Cincinnati • manager to work for a te.aitt Rose raised the possibifity of managing the Reds again in June when a Hamilton County Commissioner gave him a tour of .the Great American Ball Park, which . opens next April: Reds chief operating officer John Allen, who extended manager Bob Boone's contract through 2003, said the team hasn't considered the possibility.

The Seattle SuperSonics removed that distinction from the resume of the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday mght, rallying in the second half for a 92-88 victory. · The loss dropped the 76ers' home record to 10-1, leaving Sacramento ( 11-0) and Dallas ( 10-0) .as the league's o~ly . remammg teams w1th unblemished home records. Brent Barry ma:de a goahead 3-pointer with 23 seconds left as Seattle came back from a 17-point deficit. Gary Payton's two free throws made it a three-point advantage, and Derrick Coleman missed a deep 3 from the corn~r. Ansu Sesay got the rebound and made one of two free throws to clinch the win. Payton and Rashard Lewis each scored 20 points, Barry had 18 and Vladimir Radmanovic came off the bench to score II for the Sonics, who held the Sixers to 9-of-34 shooting in the second half. In other games, San Antonio defeated Dallas 111104, Indiana downed Milwaukee 124-119 in overtime, New Jersey edged Portland 105-104, Phoenix defeated. Boston 103-94, Memphis beat Denver 96-93, . Detroit topped Atlanta 91-80 · and Cleveland downed· Toronto 96-73. Allen Iverson had .26. points, Keith Van Horn scored 24 and Eric Snow had 13 points, eight rebounds and eight assists for the Sixers, who have lost three in a row after winning eight straight. Blues from Page B1 coaches and players may think, are the main thing voters. who are hundreds, if not · a thousand miles away, look ·at. Besides, as big as winning the Heisman Trophy might be, it continues · to become more and more of a joke. Last year'.s winner should be living proof. Anyhow ... o West Virginia coach Rich Rodriguez may complain until he's blue in the face, which it' II probably be anyway when the Mountaineers travel to Charlotte to play in the Continental Tire Bowl · • against Virginia, it's a waste of time. · Might as well be talking to the floodwall in Point Pleasant, because it'·s going to pay more attention. Don't get me wrong; I agree with Coach Rod wholeheartedly that Notre Dame has the best of both worlds and somehow that's unfair. The fact is, Notre Dame is Notre Dame. 'l<m not a big fan of the Irish, far from it, but if I was the organizer of the Gator Bowl, then I would rather National Football League AFC NY Je<s ......... 7 Bulialo ............ 6 At San Antonio, Tony Parker scored a career-high 32 points, including seven free throws in the final minute. The loss was only the third in 22 games this season for the Mavericks, who played without leading scorer and rebounder Dirk Nowitzki (sprained ankle). The Spurs held off a fourthquarter Dallas charge led by Michael Finley, who made four 3-pointers in the period. Tim Duncan added · 22 points and 13 rebounds for the Spurs, and David Robinson had 17 points and 10 rebounds. Stephen Jackson have Notre Dame than West Virginia. The folks in Jacksonville must' ve been lie king their chops when the Irish got crushed at USC two· weeks ago, hurting ND's BCS bowl chances. With a ·ran base across the country, Notre Dame guarantees a big gate, bigger than anyone could offer the Gator Bowl folks, other than the 'big three' Florida schools, that is. At the time, the deal between the Big East . and Notre Dame to put the Irish in the league's bowl picture was a good one. The Big East was struggling, not having enough bowl eligible teams for the allotted four bowl games, including the BCS spot for the league · champs, and bowls such as the Music City Bowl were wanting get rid of the Big Ea'st team from their midst. Without Notre Dame, the Big East might not have five bowl games this year to offer, again including the BCS. And that would've been a shame since the Big East had gre.at year with five out of eight teams going bowling. o If you don't like Notre Dame's preferential treatment, don ' t blame Notre Dame. Don't blame the Big East or the bowl games either. The culprit, in this case, is the NCAA, which allows an individual school to make a big contract with a major television network. If it wasn't for NBC, then Notre Dame would be more · likely to join a conference. o Finally ... The popular consensus is that Ohio State is in for' a major butt-whipping against Miami in the Fiesta Bowl. True, the Hurricanes · are most impressive on paper; but the Buckeyes aren't bad either. · If I had to choose at this time, then I would choose the Buckeyes simply on the fact it's been awhile since they've played for a national title. And, this year's Ohio State team is not last year's Nebraska squad, which had no risht to be playing for the national championship in the first place. Too many people outside the area seem to be overlooking Ohio State. For the Buckeyes, so much the better. (Butch Cooper is a sportswriter for the Gallipolis Daily Tribune.

(AP) Travis Taylor entered this season seeking to add his name to the short list of great NFL receivers. In that regard, he's dropped the ball. Taylor ranks second on the Baltimore Ravens with 48 catches, but he's also let an inordinate amount of passes fall through his hands. The former University of Florida star had three drops in a game at Miami last month and experienced similar difficulty Sunday against New Orleans. · "That's a very frustrating ·feeling for me," he says. "I've got to make those plays." Taylor, the lOth overall pick in the 2000 NFL draft, spent his first two seasons as a backup. As Baitimore's primary receiver this year, he's already has set career highs in receptions, yardage (672) and touchdowns (4). But Taylor laments the rotential catches · that got away. "Any time a ball ~its both your hands, you ' ve got to catch it. If you want to be consi.dered a No. 1 receiver, like a Jerry Rice, Terrell Owens or Marvin l:iarrison, you've got to make those type of catches," he says. "That's where I want to be, so I have to make that play.'' What's most frustrating to Taylor is that he waited so long to put himself in this position. During his first two seasons, he battled injuries and was no better than the third option behind Qadry Ismail and Shannon 'Sharpe, "To be considered an elite receiver, I know things like that take a while," he says. "But at the same time, I want it to happen right now." · Taylor couldn't wait to get to the NFL, which is one reason why he left Florida aftet his junior year. Also, there wasn' t much else he could with the Gators after earning MVP honors in the 1999 Orange Bowl and the 2000 Citru.s Bowl. As a rookie, Taylor had 28 catches for 276 yards before having his season cut short by a fractured clavicle in late October. He then watched from the sideline as Baltimore beat the New York Giants in the Super Bowl. Taylor returned last year to grab 42 passes for 560 yards and three touchdowns, but the since-departed Elvis Grbac threw most .of his important passes to Ismail and Sharpe. This season is different. Taylor had seven catches ·for 82 . yards against Pittsburgh on ·Oct. 27, then torched Atlanta for 127 yards and a touchdown. He followed with seven catches and a score against Cincinnati, and salvaged an otherwise difficult day in Mj ami by scoring Baltimore's lone touchdown in a 26-7 defeat. · "Travis runs superb routes and he makes great catches," Ravens quarterback Chris Redman says. "He can be a big:time. player; that's up to him. I think it's a matter of how good he wants to be." That's easy. Taylor has been striving for greatness since the day he joined the Ravens. "Most definitely. I'm going to do whatever it takes to ·make those catches on third down, n:tove the ball and keep the chains moving," he says. "I want to out there and make plays. If I don't make them, I'm going to be very upset with myself. If you want to be the lead guy, you have to be good every game."
