Today's Highlight in History: On March 4, 1789, the Constitution of the United States went into effect as the first Federal Congress met in New York. The lawmakers then adjourned for lack of a quorum. On this date: In 1681, England's King Charles II granted a charter to William Penn for an area ofland that l~ter became Pennsylvania. In 1791, Vermont became the 14th state. In 1829, an unruly crowd mobbed the White House during the inaugural reception for President Jackson. In 1861,Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated president. In 1902, the American Automobile Association was founded in Chicago. . . In 1933, Franklin D. Roosevelt was inaugurated president, pledging to lead the country out of the Depression. In 1933, the start of President Roosevelt's first administration brought with it the fint woman to serve in the Cabi~et: Labor Secretary Frances Perkins. In 1952, Ronald Reagan and Nancy Davis were married in San fiemando Valley, Calif. In 1981, a jury in Salt Lake City convicted Joseph Paul Franklin, an avowed racist, of violating the civil rights of two · black men who 'lwtc shot to death. Experts converge at silo where man is missing MORG ANTOWN (AP) - The body of a power station employee killed when the structure inside a 130-foottall coal silo collapsed was found about 5:30 p.m. Friday. The man's fami ly was notified and requested that his name be· wi thheld, acco rding to a press re lease issued by Dominion Resou rces, which owns half th e plant and employed the man. "Our though ts and prayers are with th e family. O ur hearts go out to them in this time of sadness. This is a tragedy th at is felt by all of his friends and coworke rs,'' said Jess Locklar. director' of the Mo rgantown Energy Associates' Rescue Team, which had been called in from Virginia. Because of damage to the silo it may be "some time" before the bod~ can be recovered, the company release said. Large vacuum trucks removed coal from the base of the silo to prepare fo r the rescue team's entry. The trucks could be used only after the 1,400 tons of coal in the silo had been stabilized "Throughout this tragic ordeal,.our responsibility was not only trying to save him, but also to protect the res· cuers," Locklar said.

Hinton man resentenced Closing.access.to public event was outrageous Outrageous. There's no other way to put it. At least, no other printable way can describ~ the anger that preceded Thursday's rally at the Ohio Statehouse by developmental center staff and supporters protesting budget cuts after they were denied access to a public ceremony. Later on, people were told there was a misunderstanding over the purpose of the ceremony and the rally. But the damage has been done, and Gov. Bob Taft and some of his officials have a lot to answer for. The state Department of Mental Retardation/Developmental Disabilities had a kick-off ceremony for MR/ DD Month in the Statehouse prior to the rally. . Busloads of MR/DD staff who scheduled a rally on the Statehouse's west lawn arrived early, and being naturally curious about an event related to their field, were observing the · ceremony. . That's when Highway Patrol troopers assigned to crowd control told the visitors that if they were "with the union;• they were to exit the building and gather on the wes~ lawn fot the rally. · Troopers asked to see handmade signs for the rally and also told those bearing the signs to remove them and themselves from the building, despite no disrespect or disruption shown by the visitors checking out the ceremony. .More importantly, the ceremony was a public event, no doubt paid for by our tax dollars, held in a public building. What kind of a message is this sending to us? That our ·$tatehouse is off limits to folks, especially to those who disagree with the governor's views? · There's a case to be made that the . directive for. those attending the rally to leave the building was illegal. At last glance, peaceful assembly has not been ruled unconstitutional in this democracy of ours, but the actions shown Thursday seem to tell us Ohio has taken exception to the rule. One of our premier freedoms is the right to lawfully assemble and express viewpoints. . That much was accomplished outside the Statehouse. But a number of people bearing signs who simply wanted to use the restrooms - remember, what we pay for - get warm, and check out state government in action were denied the same opporrunity in a different location. We recognize the patrol was following procedure when large group& gather at the Statehouse. Public safety is the patrol's mission. .. · However, for a group whose only public outbursts were cries of"save our clients" - also aired outside in the designated rally spot - the response was heavy handed, to· say the least. Were crowd control dogs, one of them stationed at the High Street entrance, really necessary in this case? After the misunderstandiqg. was supposedly cleared up, no apology was offered over how the visitors were treated. That apology probably doesn't have to come from the patrol, but certainly from the officials who work at the Statehouse - say, for example, the governor. He's up for re-election next year, right? Way to go, Bob.You really scored some points Thursday.

Today's Highlight in History: On March 4, 1789, the Constitution of the United States went into effect as the first Federal Congress met in New York. The lawmakers then adjourned for lack of a quorum. On this date: In 1681, England's King Charles II granted a charter to William Penn for an area ofland that l~ter became Pennsylvania. In 1791, Vermont became the 14th state. In 1829, an unruly crowd mobbed the White House during the inaugural reception for President Jackson. In 1861,Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated president. In 1902, the American Automobile Association was founded in Chicago. . . In 1933, Franklin D. Roosevelt was inaugurated president, pledging to lead the country out of the Depression. In 1933, the start of President Roosevelt's first administration brought with it the fint woman to serve in the Cabi~et: Labor Secretary Frances Perkins. In 1952, Ronald Reagan and Nancy Davis were married in San fiemando Valley, Calif. In 1981, a jury in Salt Lake City convicted Joseph Paul Franklin, an avowed racist, of violating the civil rights of two · black men who 'lwtc shot to death. Experts converge at silo where man is missing MORG ANTOWN (AP) - The body of a power station employee killed when the structure inside a 130-foottall coal silo collapsed was found about 5:30 p.m. Friday. The man's fami ly was notified and requested that his name be· wi thheld, acco rding to a press re lease issued by Dominion Resou rces, which owns half th e plant and employed the man. "Our though ts and prayers are with th e family. O ur hearts go out to them in this time of sadness. This is a tragedy th at is felt by all of his friends and coworke rs,'' said Jess Locklar. director' of the Mo rgantown Energy Associates' Rescue Team, which had been called in from Virginia. Because of damage to the silo it may be "some time" before the bod~ can be recovered, the company release said. Large vacuum trucks removed coal from the base of the silo to prepare fo r the rescue team's entry. The trucks could be used only after the 1,400 tons of coal in the silo had been stabilized "Throughout this tragic ordeal,.our responsibility was not only trying to save him, but also to protect the res· cuers," Locklar said.

Hinton man resentenced Closing.access.to public event was outrageous Outrageous. There's no other way to put it. At least, no other printable way can describ~ the anger that preceded Thursday's rally at the Ohio Statehouse by developmental center staff and supporters protesting budget cuts after they were denied access to a public ceremony. Later on, people were told there was a misunderstanding over the purpose of the ceremony and the rally. But the damage has been done, and Gov. Bob Taft and some of his officials have a lot to answer for. The state Department of Mental Retardation/Developmental Disabilities had a kick-off ceremony for MR/ DD Month in the Statehouse prior to the rally. . Busloads of MR/DD staff who scheduled a rally on the Statehouse's west lawn arrived early, and being naturally curious about an event related to their field, were observing the · ceremony. . That's when Highway Patrol troopers assigned to crowd control told the visitors that if they were "with the union;• they were to exit the building and gather on the wes~ lawn fot the rally. · Troopers asked to see handmade signs for the rally and also told those bearing the signs to remove them and themselves from the building, despite no disrespect or disruption shown by the visitors checking out the ceremony. .More importantly, the ceremony was a public event, no doubt paid for by our tax dollars, held in a public building. What kind of a message is this sending to us? That our ·$tatehouse is off limits to folks, especially to those who disagree with the governor's views? · There's a case to be made that the . directive for. those attending the rally to leave the building was illegal. At last glance, peaceful assembly has not been ruled unconstitutional in this democracy of ours, but the actions shown Thursday seem to tell us Ohio has taken exception to the rule. One of our premier freedoms is the right to lawfully assemble and express viewpoints. . That much was accomplished outside the Statehouse. But a number of people bearing signs who simply wanted to use the restrooms - remember, what we pay for - get warm, and check out state government in action were denied the same opporrunity in a different location. We recognize the patrol was following procedure when large group& gather at the Statehouse. Public safety is the patrol's mission. .. · However, for a group whose only public outbursts were cries of"save our clients" - also aired outside in the designated rally spot - the response was heavy handed, to· say the least. Were crowd control dogs, one of them stationed at the High Street entrance, really necessary in this case? After the misunderstandiqg. was supposedly cleared up, no apology was offered over how the visitors were treated. That apology probably doesn't have to come from the patrol, but certainly from the officials who work at the Statehouse - say, for example, the governor. He's up for re-election next year, right? Way to go, Bob.You really scored some points Thursday.

WASHINGTON ' - As we warned, the retreat has begun. 'President George W Bush is pulling America back from the world stage. He appears to be set upon an exit strategy from our ongoing duel with Iraq. Sanctions are tbout to be reduced, . which elfectively ~cans ended. Bush's cover was the recent muscle-flexing air · attack on Iraq's command-and-control centers. China was admonished for selling ·weapons and weapons technology to Iraq, but the Chinese responded that if , they had done so, they had not meant it. And, what's more, they wouldn't do it anymore. That was all the cover Bush needed. He said, fine. Great Britain's Prime Minister Thny Blair met with the president and announced his support for an a)l-European rapid-reaction military force. The fact that such a force would 'esSentially replace NATO seems to have been lost on. Bush, however, and he said, fine. After all, the reasoning goes, why not let the Europeans police Europe.

And once the word is out that America is in retreat, longsmoldering grievances will burst into flame as one country after another turns to terror and war to solve its problems. The · Pax Romana (the' Peace of Rome) lasted 200 years, and when it ended, the world descended into the Dark Ages. The Pax Americana, beginning with the end ofWoild War II, has lasted just over haifa century, and Bush unwittingly may be bringing it to a close. If he does, will another Dark Ages result? Will another power tak~ the helm, or will the . world fracture into multi-power hegemonies? ~orne may say that America is the only superpower, and that is not going to change. But a superpower that fails to assert its power only paves the way for a descent into international anarchy. , into another of those Balkan conflagrations, but Bush is on record opposing the air campaign against Serbia to save Kosovo.

Now Israel has fUmed to the right with hardliner I\riel Sharon. Bush's solution? Blame everybody.· It's the old "there's two sides to every story" form of negotiation. But what more docs he expect Israel to offer? Of course Palestinian rights and dreams need to be protected, Just as Israeli security does. But Bush needs to make choices.

The senators, who received a combined total of $75,000 tiom the coalmining industty during the 2000 election cycle, have introduced a plan spending $1 billion over 10 'years for research and up to $6 billion in tax breaks in the next decade for utilities to refurbish plants or build new facilities using emerging co:l!

"Mter all, the surpl11s is your money," Bush said in his weekly radio address Saturday. Bush planned a campaignstyle swing through North Dakota, South Dakota, Louisiana and the Florida panhandle. He'll begin the week · on Tuesday with a speech on economic issues before the Mercantile Exchange in Chicago. He has already pitched his S1.6 trillion, 10-year taX-cut plan to ·audiences in Pennsylvania, Iowa, Nebraska, Arkansas and Georgia. The aim is to try to move public opinion in as many states as possible in a bid to sway votes in Congress, especially in the Senate, which is equally divided between the two parties. "Every day, in every way, whether it's at the White House or it's in travel, the presidenr looks at how to get his plan across to th~ voter! sp, the voters can get their message to the senators and the congressmen," White Ho~se press secretary Ari Fleischer said Friday. Even in the Dakotas, Fleischer added. "In a 50-50 Senate there is no such thing as a small-populated state." Asked if Bush really believed he could win over Sourh Dakota's Tom Daschle, the Senate Democratic leader, or North Dakota's Kent Conrad, the Senate Budget Committee's top Democrat, Fleischer said: ''I'm not going to start defining who's gettable and who's not gettable, but the president is going to try to build support for his plan evervwhere he can." In the radio address, Bush told Americans he is determined "to bring my case . directly to you."

"Mter all, the surpl11s is your money," Bush said in his weekly radio address Saturday. Bush planned a campaignstyle swing through North Dakota, South Dakota, Louisiana and the Florida panhandle. He'll begin the week · on Tuesday with a speech on economic issues before the Mercantile Exchange in Chicago. He has already pitched his S1.6 trillion, 10-year taX-cut plan to ·audiences in Pennsylvania, Iowa, Nebraska, Arkansas and Georgia. The aim is to try to move public opinion in as many states as possible in a bid to sway votes in Congress, especially in the Senate, which is equally divided between the two parties. "Every day, in every way, whether it's at the White House or it's in travel, the presidenr looks at how to get his plan across to th~ voter! sp, the voters can get their message to the senators and the congressmen," White Ho~se press secretary Ari Fleischer said Friday.

Asked if Bush really believed he could win over Sourh Dakota's Tom Daschle, the Senate Democratic leader, or North Dakota's Kent Conrad, the Senate Budget Committee's top Democrat, Fleischer said: ''I'm not going to start defining who's gettable and who's not gettable, but the president is going to try to build support for his plan evervwhere he can." In the radio address, Bush told Americans he is determined "to bring my case . directly to you."

To encourage House to give up his football fantasy, the Pirates likely will start him out at Double-A Altoona rather than Single-A Lynchburg, if only to make the majors seem closer. Until a couple of months ago, it seemed House had ruled out playing football again, despite setting five national passing records at Nitro (WVa.) High School, including career yardage (14,457) and touchdown passes in a state championship game (10). However. two factors are making House consider football again. · First, Pirates catcher Jason Kendall signed a $60 million contract extension through the 2007 season. Second, new West Virginia coach Rich Rodriguez is installing a wide-open spread offense similar to that House played in high ·school. With so much pressure from West Virginia fans to play football, and his Pirates future clouded by Kendall's longterm contract, "the 21year-old House has football on his mind again. "I met with coach Rodriguez and we both think it's a good situation, . but whether it works out or not remains to be seen," said House, the Pirates' fifth-round draft pick in 1999." "In West Virginia, there's no pro football, only WVU football, and football is a big deal there." Of course, the big leagues are a big deal to .most athletes, and House agrees that, given a choice, he would rather be a major league catcher than an NFL starting quarterback. Also, he seems to lack the size - he is 6-foot-1 and 200 pounds - and arm strength needed to be a pro quarterback and, perhaps, even a standout college quarterback. But House also doesn't want to stagnate in the Pirates' farm system, blocked from the majors by Kendall's co ntract. "This (football) is direct response to that, there's no way around it," House said. "If I next was line to be in the big leagues and Kendall wasn't going to be there, the West Virginia thing probably never would have come up." The Pirates could move Kendall or House to another position, as the Astros once did by switching Craig Biggio from catcher to second base. "The Pirates don't want me to go, but it's going:to be my decision, and it will be tough one to make," Houlie said. "I have no idea. I've always said that if I was going to do something, I usually:did it. Ifl said I didn't know, I really didn't know. And, right now, I really don't know what's going to happen. "It's always been my goal in life to be an everyday catcher for a major league'uiam. Bitt if that can't happen, I'm going to go for my second goal, and that's to be a quarterback." Point from Page 81 .l baseline jumper and Villars' buzzer beating 25-footer were the only non-charity scores in the first quarter. "I think it's the fact that they were a better basketball . team," said Blain. "We were out-manned. If you go zone, they shoot you out ofit. If you g~ man, you are giving up about a foot a man other than Joey (Loomis). I think all around, that's the best team we have played all year. "We tried to run at them and stop the three, so they drove around us and got easy ones. When they did miss the long range· shot, we tried to box out, but they were just too big: too much height and they jump too well. I really don't think we could have played any harder. We gave it every effort we had. Tonight, they were a better basketball team." Joey Loomis led the Blg Blacks with 1I points in his fil)a! appearance for Point. J.P. Simpkins added seven in his final contest. Friday's game also marked the last game for senior Eric Frye.

(AP) - The Pittsburgh Pirates' top hitting prospect is a House divided. JR. House is a catcher, but he's also a quarterback. The quarterback would rather play · baseball, but the catcher can't get football out of his mind. So, even though House says his lifetime goal has been to catch in the majors, he will decide by the All-Star game if he will report to West Virginias football camp m August. 'Whether they .keep me catching, whether they trade me, where they want to pur me, how I'm doing during the season will come into play," ' said House, who hit a leaguehigh .348 with 23 homers and 90 RB!s in I 10 games at Single-A Hickory last season. The Pirates seem very uncomfortable with all of this football talk. 'If that's what he says he's going to do, I guess that's what he'll do,"· said Pirates general manager Cam Bonifay, who will meet in the nexc few days with House's agent, Dan Lozano, who coincidentally is Kendall's agent.

All is well with Rodriguez. PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. (AP) Case closed: Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter have spoken by phone and smoothed out any misunderstandings. "It's very much clear, it came and it left," Rodriguez said Saturday of his phone call to Jete r the night before. "Between him. and I is what I'm worried about. The air is clear and we had a good conversation." The two All-Star shortstops have been friends for years. But twice in recent months Rodriguez made what appear . to be unfavorable remarks about Jeter. Jeter said Saturday he was more confused than upset by the latest flap. He said from Tampa the two of them sorted things out. " I gave him the benefit of the doubt," he said. "Yesterday I had the opportunity to talk with him and now it's over with. If he wants to get into what we talked about it, then that's up to him. I'll just leave it alone.11 On Friday, Rodriguez said he would stop discussing the subject and called Jeter "the best player in the game.'' Soon after he signed a $252 million, 10-year contract with Texas that is the largest in sports history, Rodriguez said the salary figure ~uld be hard to top. "Even a guy like Derek,it's going to be hard for him to break that because he just doesn't do the power numbers and defensively he doesn't do all those things," A-Rod said in December. Then there are Rodriguez's comments in the April edition of Esquire. "H e's never had to lead," Rodriguez said in the magazine. "He can just go and play and have fun. He hits second - that's totally different than third o r fourth in a lineup. , "You go into New York, you wauna stop Bernie (Williams) and (Paul) O'NeilL You never say, 'Don 't let Derek beat us.' He 's never your concern," he said. Rodriguez insists those co nunents were taken out of conte xt from a 90-minute imerview in December. " H ow can I ever dog Derek Jeter? It 's impossi ble," Rodnguez said. "There is nothing to knock. He's. a great defensive player. He's a great offensive player. He 's one of the ·top three players in the game for the greatest team of my era. "It's my mistake because I said it. It's not the journalist's fault," he said. "It's been my fault for just talking the game and being too general. I guess you have to be very specific.'' Jeter, who already has won four World Series champ,i onship rings at 26, recendy received a $189 million, tOyear contract from the Yankees, the second-largest deal in sports history. Jeter was the MVP of last year's World Series win over the New York Mets and last summer's All-Star game. H e's a career .342 hitter in the Series. "He's one of our leaders in the clubhouse. There's no doubt about it," Yankees center fielder Bernie Williams said. "He's definitely one of those guys, in a clutch situation, that would do something.'' While unable to say if the comments in the magazine hi s exac t words, were Rodriguez said he was trying to compare his situation to Jeter's. He meant it as a compliment to the Yankees as a whole and not a slam on their shortstop. "When you come to Texas now, yo u don 't say you have to stop [van (Rodriguez), Alex ot Raf!Y (Rafael Palmeiro) . You say, let's stop one through nine because everybody can hurt you.'' Rodriguez left Seatde as a free agent after the Yankees beat the Mariners in last year's AL championship series. "It's great because our situations mirror each other. All we have to do is go out and play," Rodriguez said. "I don't have to worry about leading Ivan, (Andres) Galarraga or (Ken) Caminiti or Raf!Y.Those guys all lead themselves.You lead by example, bm it's not like leading in Seatde last year.'' s Scoreboard Sheffield will have more to say on Tuesday CASE CLOSED - Alex Rodriguez leads off from second base in front of Derek Jeter during a game between the Yankees and Mariners last year. Rodriguez and Jeter haveworked out any misunderstandings after comments made by ROdriguez recently. (AP) Cath. 53 VERO BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Disgruntled Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Gary Sheffield says while he h asn't issued a deadline to be traded, he'll have more to say Tuesday if a deal 'hasn't been made by then. "I've got something that's going on Tuesday, ir's not something that's going to damage this ·organ iza ti on," Sheffield said Friday. " I won't say anything negative, I'm just going to speak the truth. " Let's put it this way - they won't be abfe to hide behind the paper and pen anymore. The longer it goes, my stand is just getting tougher. As far as Tuesday, something's going to give. I'm · going to tell it like it is" Under contract for the next three seasons for a total of $30 million with a club option for 2004 at $11 million, Sheffield asked the Dodgers for a contract extension last month.

All is well with Rodriguez. PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. (AP) Case closed: Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter have spoken by phone and smoothed out any misunderstandings. "It's very much clear, it came and it left," Rodriguez said Saturday of his phone call to Jete r the night before. "Between him. and I is what I'm worried about. The air is clear and we had a good conversation." The two All-Star shortstops have been friends for years. But twice in recent months Rodriguez made what appear . to be unfavorable remarks about Jeter. Jeter said Saturday he was more confused than upset by the latest flap. He said from Tampa the two of them sorted things out. " I gave him the benefit of the doubt," he said. "Yesterday I had the opportunity to talk with him and now it's over with. If he wants to get into what we talked about it, then that's up to him. I'll just leave it alone.11 On Friday, Rodriguez said he would stop discussing the subject and called Jeter "the best player in the game.'' Soon after he signed a $252 million, 10-year contract with Texas that is the largest in sports history, Rodriguez said the salary figure ~uld be hard to top. "Even a guy like Derek,it's going to be hard for him to break that because he just doesn't do the power numbers and defensively he doesn't do all those things," A-Rod said in December. Then there are Rodriguez's comments in the April edition of Esquire. "H e's never had to lead," Rodriguez said in the magazine. "He can just go and play and have fun. He hits second - that's totally different than third o r fourth in a lineup. , "You go into New York, you wauna stop Bernie (Williams) and (Paul) O'NeilL You never say, 'Don 't let Derek beat us.' He 's never your concern," he said. Rodriguez insists those co nunents were taken out of conte xt from a 90-minute imerview in December. " H ow can I ever dog Derek Jeter? It 's impossi ble," Rodnguez said. "There is nothing to knock. He's. a great defensive player. He's a great offensive player. He 's one of the ·top three players in the game for the greatest team of my era. "It's my mistake because I said it. It's not the journalist's fault," he said. "It's been my fault for just talking the game and being too general. I guess you have to be very specific.'' Jeter, who already has won four World Series champ,i onship rings at 26, recendy received a $189 million, tOyear contract from the Yankees, the second-largest deal in sports history. Jeter was the MVP of last year's World Series win over the New York Mets and last summer's All-Star game. H e's a career .342 hitter in the Series. "He's one of our leaders in the clubhouse. There's no doubt about it," Yankees center fielder Bernie Williams said. "He's definitely one of those guys, in a clutch situation, that would do something.'' While unable to say if the comments in the magazine hi s exac t words, were Rodriguez said he was trying to compare his situation to Jeter's. He meant it as a compliment to the Yankees as a whole and not a slam on their shortstop. "When you come to Texas now, yo u don 't say you have to stop [van (Rodriguez), Alex ot Raf!Y (Rafael Palmeiro) . You say, let's stop one through nine because everybody can hurt you.'' Rodriguez left Seatde as a free agent after the Yankees beat the Mariners in last year's AL championship series. "It's great because our situations mirror each other. All we have to do is go out and play," Rodriguez said. "I don't have to worry about leading Ivan, (Andres) Galarraga or (Ken) Caminiti or Raf!Y.Those guys all lead themselves.You lead by example, bm it's not like leading in Seatde last year.'' s Scoreboard Sheffield will have more to say on Tuesday CASE CLOSED - Alex Rodriguez leads off from second base in front of Derek Jeter during a game between the Yankees and Mariners last year. Rodriguez and Jeter haveworked out any misunderstandings after comments made by ROdriguez recently. (AP) Cath. 53 VERO BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Disgruntled Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Gary Sheffield says while he h asn't issued a deadline to be traded, he'll have more to say Tuesday if a deal 'hasn't been made by then. "I've got something that's going on Tuesday, ir's not something that's going to damage this ·organ iza ti on," Sheffield said Friday. " I won't say anything negative, I'm just going to speak the truth. " Let's put it this way - they won't be abfe to hide behind the paper and pen anymore. The longer it goes, my stand is just getting tougher. As far as Tuesday, something's going to give. I'm · going to tell it like it is" Under contract for the next three seasons for a total of $30 million with a club option for 2004 at $11 million, Sheffield asked the Dodgers for a contract extension last month. He reiterated his desire for such a deal Wednesday. Pirates talking multiyear.contract with·Benson LAKELAND, Fla.

"I was very pleased With him," McClendon said. "We've talked about being more aggressive with the fastball, and he did a good job with it.

Charleston couple stays fit and has fun SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - If the physically fit and the married both live longer lives, then Jerry Gilbert and Jan Green are destined for a double dose oflongevity The South Charleston duo share their weekly workouts by pedaling a tandem bicycle together. . And not the old, clunky bicycle built for two of "Daisy, Daisy" fame. Their teamwork takes place upon a sleek, white Trek, made of 40 pounds of tubes and crankshafts and two smooth black seats. Add ample water botdes, a pannier for belongings, lights, tools and spare parts and it still weighs only 65 pounds. "A lot of it is working together," Gilbert said. ''Wherever our relationship is going, it will get there faster together. We're literally chained together." The Gilbert-Green symbiotic journey began about six years ago when they decided they needed more exercise and wanted to do it together. The couple, now in their early 50s, had walked during early mornings but yearned for a bit more adventure. Exercising together also gave them a chance to discuss the ever-present questions of adolescence. Their children are 20 and 14. · When many couples might not survive, say, hanging wallpaper together, Gilbert and Green rhrive in an activity that demands synchronization, instant communication and a Jot of cooperation. "We seem ~o be able to do that," Green said FISHING ODNR to stock trout about her husband, whom she has known since childhood in upstate New York. "I know when he is going to slow down. And he's a really nice guy. If I tell him I'm tired, we stop - and eat chocola.te." She handles the tour-guide responsibilities, pointing out landmarks, squirting a kind of pepper spray at snappish dogs and watching the heart rate monitor he wears to gauge his fit- ness. He takes charge of controlling the tandem, braking · and changing gears, announcing just beforehand if he plans to shift gears. While the effort appears easy, Gilbert compares negotiating a tandem with driving a sluggish truck as opposed to a nimble sports car. With a two- to four-hour ride each week, COLUMBUS -The Ohio of Natural of Resources Division Wildlife will stock some 47 waterways in Ohio with over 100,000 rainbow trout this spring. · . Nine lakes and reservoirs in southern Ohio will receive an influx of over 22,000 trout in March and April. Targeting inland waters, the . annual spring trout releases have been expanded in recent years to include local community park ponds in addition to various 4kes.The daily catch limit for inland lakes is five trout per angler. Timber Ridge Lake in Lawrence County will receive a stock of 4,000 trout from the Division ofWildlife March 7. Forked Run Lake in Meigs County will receive 2,675 trout with delivery set for March 9. Rose Lake in Hocking County will ·receive two deliveries of rainbow trout. The first stocking, with ·a release of 1,500 lis~·set for March 16, with the econd one scheduled for arch 23. The ODNR will release 1 •725 trout on the second stocking date. Yoctangee Reservoir m MU the pair can pedal up to 50 miles on an outing, often from their home in the Thousand Oaks subdivision to Kanawha State Forest. They also like to ride on Fishers Ridge, Dry Ridge and other country roads. Last year, they joined a weeklong, tandemonly tour in Texas. This May, they plan a fourday ride in Pennsylvania with other like-minded bikers. "The time together is wonderful," said Gilbert, a civil engineer for Dow Chemical Co.'s Union Carbide operations. Green works for Godiva Chocolatier at Charleston Town Center. "There's a feeling of relationship and common goals." . "And getting exercise," his wife added. • slates . ~amily concert HUNTINGTON, W.Va. - Marshall University Symphony Orchestra will present its annual F;un.ily Concert on March 13.

Charleston couple stays fit and has fun SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - If the physically fit and the married both live longer lives, then Jerry Gilbert and Jan Green are destined for a double dose oflongevity The South Charleston duo share their weekly workouts by pedaling a tandem bicycle together. . And not the old, clunky bicycle built for two of "Daisy, Daisy" fame. Their teamwork takes place upon a sleek, white Trek, made of 40 pounds of tubes and crankshafts and two smooth black seats. Add ample water botdes, a pannier for belongings, lights, tools and spare parts and it still weighs only 65 pounds. "A lot of it is working together," Gilbert said. ''Wherever our relationship is going, it will get there faster together. We're literally chained together." The Gilbert-Green symbiotic journey began about six years ago when they decided they needed more exercise and wanted to do it together. The couple, now in their early 50s, had walked during early mornings but yearned for a bit more adventure. Exercising together also gave them a chance to discuss the ever-present questions of adolescence. Their children are 20 and 14. · When many couples might not survive, say, hanging wallpaper together, Gilbert and Green rhrive in an activity that demands synchronization, instant communication and a Jot of cooperation. "We seem ~o be able to do that," Green said FISHING ODNR to stock trout about her husband, whom she has known since childhood in upstate New York. "I know when he is going to slow down. And he's a really nice guy. If I tell him I'm tired, we stop - and eat chocola.te." She handles the tour-guide responsibilities, pointing out landmarks, squirting a kind of pepper spray at snappish dogs and watching the heart rate monitor he wears to gauge his fit- ness. He takes charge of controlling the tandem, braking · and changing gears, announcing just beforehand if he plans to shift gears. While the effort appears easy, Gilbert compares negotiating a tandem with driving a sluggish truck as opposed to a nimble sports car. With a two- to four-hour ride each week, COLUMBUS -The Ohio of Natural of Resources Division Wildlife will stock some 47 waterways in Ohio with over 100,000 rainbow trout this spring. · . Nine lakes and reservoirs in southern Ohio will receive an influx of over 22,000 trout in March and April. Targeting inland waters, the . annual spring trout releases have been expanded in recent years to include local community park ponds in addition to various 4kes.The daily catch limit for inland lakes is five trout per angler. Timber Ridge Lake in Lawrence County will receive a stock of 4,000 trout from the Division ofWildlife March 7. Forked Run Lake in Meigs County will receive 2,675 trout with delivery set for March 9. Rose Lake in Hocking County will ·receive two deliveries of rainbow trout. The first stocking, with ·a release of 1,500 lis~·set for March 16, with the econd one scheduled for arch 23. The ODNR will release 1 •725 trout on the second stocking date.

They also like to ride on Fishers Ridge, Dry Ridge and other country roads. Last year, they joined a weeklong, tandemonly tour in Texas. This May, they plan a fourday ride in Pennsylvania with other like-minded bikers. "The time together is wonderful," said Gilbert, a civil engineer for Dow Chemical Co.'s Union Carbide operations. Green works for Godiva Chocolatier at Charleston Town Center. "There's a feeling of relationship and common goals." .

She did just that, collaborating for the first thne with .noted tunesmitlls Mary Chapin Carpenter, Gary Burr, Beth Nielsen Chapman, Angelo and Arnie RobofF. "My mother was a child of the '60s and she listens still to Bob Dylan arid Joan Baez and Joplin and the Beades. When I was growing up, that's what I listened to.

A Gulf Coast well, he said, may "pr oduce a million of cubic feet a day, bu t only last four to five years, while a g ood well here in Ohio may last 10 to 20 years." The higher price of natural gas is dr iving more exp loration for natural gas reserves in Ohlo and nearby states.

Meigs CoW!ty Family md Children First Council was one of 12 communities to receive funds in Ohio, said coordinator Amy Boster. The "Parents Who Host, Lose the Most" campaign educates parents about the leg:d ramificitions and. he;Uth and safety risks of serving :alcohol to teens, other than their own children. First Lady Hope Taft is the campaign's spokeswo=. The campaign will begin in April and continue through June during prom and graduation season, when underage drinking parties are most prevalent, Boster said. The Meigs Council also will promote the "Safe Homes, Safe Parties" parent pledge. The pledge asks parents to make a commitment not to serve or allow :alcohol or other drugs at parties hosted in their homes. The Ohio Family md Children First Council and 88 local COW!ty councils were created to streamline and coordinate existing government services for families seeking assistance for their children.

Columbus md Cleveland officials are hoping that Commerce Secretary Don Evms rebuffi the U.S. Census Bureau's recommendation not to statistically adjust census data to make up for the undercount. The Census Bureau's acting director, William Barron, on Thursday recommended that Evans only allow for the release of unadjusted data, or the strict head coW!t.
