Exponent-Telegram: The President's Cancer Panel released a disturbing report, which concluded that the nation's health care system- especially in rural srates like West Virginia - fails patients with cancer. The report's title suins up the crisis: "Voices of a Broken System:' Re21 People, Real Problems." Five of the nearly 400. people who testified for the report were from West Virginia. One story in particular was shameful. A Monroe County woman was diagnosed in 1998 with cervical cancer. Her employer canceled her he2ith coverage, citing a "pre~exisring condition." The woman's local hospital wanted $7,000 up front to do the hysterectomy - money she didn't have. She ended up having to wait a year to have the surgery. The woman, Pamela Rutherford, is OK now, bQt she testified that the nation's health care system needs to change. "They need to look at the poor people for a change, instead of the rich people," she said. "People are not getting what they need. It's a matter oflife and death." We are the richest, most technologically advanced nation in the world, yet there are many who cannot get the medical treatment they need to live. There are as many as 4,800 West Virginians expected to die of cancer this year. One has to wonder how many of the poorer o,nes might have survived if they had received adequate care. Fixing the system will not be easy or cheap. But those in the he2ith care industry and in state and federal governments must sit up and take notice. They can start by· reading this latest report.

A&M65 NBA Monday'• Gllma Philadelphia 99, Bosron 83 WASHINGTON TODAY Goodwill gives Bush more leeway to cancel out treaty BY TOM RAUM WASHINGTON- The United States' withdrawal from ihe landmark Anti-Ballistic Missile treaty is a slap at Russia, China and moSt of America's European allies. But President Bush's rim· ing in signaling the pullout may limit the damage, thanks to a crest of international good will in the war on terrorism. "His popularity in this country is very high. Secondly, he cerU.inly appears to be winning the war in Afghanistan. So in that sense, he's taking dpuble advantage of his popularity at home and abroad," said John lssacs of Cour¢il for a Livable World, an arms-~ontrol group that opposes Bush's move. Congress is also preoccupied with trying to finish work on must-pass spending bills so it can adj~urn for the year - and has little rime to block such a move, even if it was so inclined. Bush is expected to announce on Thursday that the United States is withdrawing from the 1972 ABM treaty, which expressly bans national missile defenses. He tried to strike a deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin that ·would allow the United States to move to a next phase of testing in its missile defense program - beginning construction next · spring on silos and a testing command center near Fairbanks, Alaska. , But Russia, which cannot afford a national missile defense, views the ABM treaty as a bedrock paq on which all subsequenl nuclear arms-reduction treaties rest. Furthermore, Putin wasn't in a mood to compromise further, having alrady taken heat from Russian conservatives and . the military for giving too much away to the United States. "We have not been able to resolve this disagreement," Secretary of State Colin · Powell said glumly in Moscow after a final unsuccessful effort to reach a deal with Purin in the Ktemlin on Monday. America's European allies have argued against scrapping the ABM treaty so the United States can build a missile defense. They assert that would prompt Russia and China to build more and more ntissiles to keep their own nuclear forces credible. They claim the ABM has maintained strategic stability for 30 years. Russians have been oppo,ed because it would put them at a military disadvantage and further rub in America's technological superiority. And Chinese leaders feat that such a system could totally ' neutralize their batam nuclear force of fewer than 20 long-range nuclear missiles. Bush has been threatening for months to excercise a clause in the ABM treaty that allows either side to withdraw by giving six-months' notice. German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, a strong proponent of the ABM treaty, said differences remain with the United States. "Let's not beat around the bush. Those differences are going to lead to some degree of upheaval," he said. ''But they must not, and I think they will not, lead to any kind of major crisis here:' Bush claims the system, which could cost up to $80 billion, is not intended.as a defense against missiles from Russiawhich, like the United States, still has roughly 6,000 long-range ballistic missiles fitted with nuclear warheads - but from a limited attack from a rogue or terrorist nation. It was not clear when the six-month clock would begin on the U.S. withdrawal from the treaty - from the time of Bush's expected Thursday announcement, or from Jan I, 2002. "I'm not in a position to make any predicrions;'White House press secretary Ari Aeischer said. In any event, the United States seems almost certain to use !he six-month period to try to gain Moscow's last-ditch acqutesance. "We will continue to work together on defense," State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said. He said the United States was "willing to work out all kinds of arrangements" to allow missiledefense testing to go forward without having to scrap the ABM treaty. Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, urged U.S. restraint. "There is no need to withdraw in terms of our testing program in the coming year," Levin said. "Unilateral withdrawal will likely lead to an action-teaction cycle...and that kind of arms race would not make us more secure:• (Tom Raum ha.s covertd ttdtional and interndtional '!!fairs for The Associated Press since 1973.)

Katie Sayre turned in a double-double with 14 points and ten rebounds, while netting two assists in posting another night of good · numbers. Brigette Barnes rallied for 12 points and four ·assists, while grabbing six rebounds and nine steals in a super defensive effort. Amy Lee notched eight points and had three assists in a great game at point guard, running the Southern offense. Deana Pullins Joined Ashley Dunn and Brooke Kiser in posting six points; Dunn also had six key rebounds in limited playing time due to foul trouble. Ashley Roush adde<J three, Joanne Pickens two, andTara Pickens one as nearly every Tornado reached the scoring column. South Gallia was led by Alana Condee with 's ix points, Holly Haner four, Joanie Fellure three, Julia Gwinn two, and Tasha Pelfrey on.e. Southern jumped out into an early lead and never looked back as seven Tornadoes hit the scoring column early - Chapman, Barnes, Pullins, Lee, Sayre, Dunn, Pickens, and Kiser. Chapman led the Tornado charge with several . great feeds. ftom Barnes and Lee. Chapman also got in a couple up-andundei. as Southern raced off to a scorching hot start. Southern's defense forced 40 Rebel turnovers. · The Tornado press rocked . the Rebels early and they never recovered, The Rebels found penetration nearly impossible against the tight SHS defense, and likewise the guests could not establish their outside game. The result was a 21-0 jump start from the Tornadoes; the same score that ended the period with a shut out. Since injuring here elbow early in the year, sophomore Ashley Dunn is beginning to get back into her preseason rythym. She combined with Tara Pickens to grab eleven rebounds from the number five position. Decimated by injuries, South Gallia lost several key players and was never a match for the Tornadoes, despite a game of great husde. In the second period, Chapman added a try and several two·~ to boost her scoring at the half to 14 points. Sayre pitched in with six as Southern's younger members did a bang-up job with key buckets tiom Tara Pickens, Roush, and Kiser. Haner broke loose for a couple quick second-period buckets, then Condee added four points and a free throw right before the half. The score at the half stood 39-9. Substituting freely, Southern blanketed the Rebels with numerous fast breaks, getting four points each from Barnes, Chapman, and Lee. Several Barnes steals highlighted ·the 1hird period, igniting an 18-point attack that left the score 57-15.

The New Orleans Saints bragged all week about their improved play after they won three of four games, but Warner put an end to the talk with four touchdown passes Monday night, lifting the Rams to a 34-21 victory. "You just get . tired of all the talk;' Rams coach Mike Martz said. "I just think that we all felt that we had something to prove." . The game, New Orleans' first on a Monday night since 1994, was interrupted briefly when fans threw bottles and debris on the field after a call they disagreed with. Thirteen people were arrested on a variety of charges. Fifteen others were ejected from the Superdome. The victory clinched a playoff spot for the Rams (11-2), and St. Louis is a game ahead of Chicago in the race for home-field advantage in the NFC playoffi. The Saints' loss also clinched a postseason berth for San Francisco. The 49ers, a game behind, still h•ve an outside chance of catching the Rams in the NFC West, but St. Louis' two wins over San Francisco gives them the tiebreaker. The Saints (7-6) ~ain in contention for a wild card spot, with a key game coming up in Tampa next week against the Bucs, who ha:ve the same record. Warner was 23-for-32 for 338 yards. Three of the TD pasSes went tq lwc Bruce, and the other to Marshall Faulk. St. Louis lost two fumbles, increasing their league-leading pv'eaW.y total to 37. One set up a Saints touchdown and the other prevented a score by the Rams. But New Orleans had its own problems, including 16 penalties for 132 yards. An onsides kick in the first quarter and a fake field goal in tHe second both failed. The Rams led 21-14 at the half, taking the lead on a 4yard pass from Warner to Faulk with 28 seconds left. New Orleans opened the scoring with a 4-yard TD pass NFL ) .

Merletti said 10 arrests were made and that the team would vigilantly pursue those responsible for throwing things. "We wiU bring a number of people forward and they will pay the price," Medetti said. Debris also was thrown on the field Monday night in New Orleans early in the fourth quarter of the game between the St. Louis Rams and the Saints. Defensive pass interference was called on New Orleans' Kevin Mathis in the end zone with 9:44 remaining. Fans reacted to the call by tossing debris on the field, and the NFL said 13 arrests were made . In 1995, the New York Giants took season tickets from some fans who threw snowballs on the field during a game. Policy said he spoke with league officials in New York on Monday, but was not criticized for his postgame com-. ments. He also regretted . "dragging" Lerner into the postgame news conference with him . The Browns' home season finale turned frightening in \ the closing seconds when officials used instant replay to decide that Browns wide receiver Quincy Morgan did not catch a pass·. for a first down. But they didn't make the ruling until after the Browos ran another play. Browns coach Butch Davis still doesn't understand why the call was overrurned. " It's my understanding when the ball is signaled into play and snapped that mything that happens after that is non:-reviewable," said Davis, in his first season as Browns coach. Davis was also asked if the bottle-throwing made him feel any less comfortable about working in Cleveland. "Nope," Davis said. "Proud to be here.'' · So is Browns quartefback Tim Couch, who said he was standing at midfield talking with several Jacksonville players as the debris rained down. "They were like, 'I wish our fans were as into it as your fans are,'" Couch said. "I guess you cm look at it either way. Either your fans are into it, or some people say they're nuts, throwing bottles and stuff. : ''I'm sticking behind our fans. I'm happy they're supporting us like that. I'm not happy they're throwing botdes." Brooks early in the third quarter, and two plays later, · Warner found Bruce aU alone down the sideline for a 40yard score that made it 28- 14. New Orleans closed to 2821 on a 28-yard TD pass from Brooks to Willie Jackson. It came after the Sain~ had6rstand-goal at the 4, then moved back by four consecutive penalties - delay of game, illegal motion, holding and a personal foul. ' "The thing about penalties is that they are uncalled-for," said Brooks, who completep 23 of 40 passes for 269 yards and three touchdowns. He was intercepted twice and sacked five times. Jeff Wilkins' 43-yard 6eld . goal in the first minute of the fourth period made it 31-21. Wilkins added a 27 -yarde'r seven minutes later. �( Tuee.t.y, Dec. 11, 2001 ~Tullllay, Patriots coach familiar with fan misbehavior ~ ~JlJI the end line, while the stands at the other end were :lbout 30 feet away, Belichick said. So wh~n a t~am got close to th~ Dawg Pound in th~ second half. · officials moved the ball to the same yard line on the other end. "We switched emu four times in th~ fourth quarter to alway. be going away liom the Dawg Pound," Belichick said. "That was a game, too, wh~re I guess a lot of fans had come to the game planning on taking souvenirs home so they had th~ir tool kits and the seats were coming out." He wouldn't say what obj~cts were thrown at th~ Patriots' b~nch in Buffafo. · "I don't want to get into it," he said. "They were probably aiming at me." Four years after Municipal Stadium shut down, th~ expansion Browns began playing in Cleveland Browns Stadium on the same site. On Satu{day, Foxboro Stadium will be the site of its last regular-season game wh~n th~ Patriots play Miami, unless they hav~ a home playoff gam~. But th~ PatriotS are only moving to adjacent CMGi Field, now under construction, whil~ the Browm bol~d to Baltimore. leaving behind angry fans. And· most of the seats in Foxboro are metaJ benches. "Getting these benches up would be a lot h.uder than getting a seat up," Belichick ·said. ' • PHILADELPHIA (AP) -The Philad~lphia 76ers aren't conceding anything. All~n Iverson scored 37 points and Aaron McKie got 13 of his 17 in the third quarter, leading the Sixers to a 99- 83 victory over the streaking Boston Celtics on Monday night. Boston, off to its best start in 10 years, had won nine of10.The defending Eastern Conference champion Six~rs have won twO straight after losing seven in a row. It was just third game Iverson, McKie and point guard Eric Snow played together. The three have missed 36 games combined this season. "We're fortunate that nobody in our division or conference has had an unbelievable start, but the biggest thing is we have to show we are getting better," Sixers coach Larry Brown said. "If we aren't g~tting better, we aren't beating anybody." The Sixers are 10-14 following an 0-5 start. Paul Pierce scored 24 points and Antoine Walker had 15 for the Celtics, who fell to 14-S.Walker missed all11 Qfhis 3-point attempts. · The game was the only one in the NBA on Monday night. Philadelphia put the game away with a 15-3 ·run in the final 4:25 of the third, with McKie scoring all but two of the points in the spurt. After falling behind 59-37 minu~s into the third, Boston quickly cut the deficit to 59-46 on three consecutive 3-pointers by Pierce.

To him, the bottle-throwing Sunlhy by Cleveland spectators isn't as bad as some of the rowdin~« he remembers well. Belichick recalls fans flinging seats fiom th~ upper deck in the last game at Municipal Stadium in 1995 after Browns owner Art Modell announced the ~am was moving to Baltimore. Still, th~ misbehavior Sunday during the Browns' 15-10 1055 to Jacksonville, was disturbing to New England's coach. And it wasn't limi~ to Cleveland. Belichiclr. saw it first hand in the Patriou' 12-9 ovtrtim~ win over th~ Buffalo BiDs. . "W~ had a couple of incidents in Buffalo, too, where we got pelted there on the sid~lines," Belichick said. "I can't really imagine that that's what th~ league is looking for. I can't imagine they're looking for what happened in Clewland, either. "I know there were some p~ople .that maybe thought it w:u OK, but it's hard for me to imagine:' Both games involved vid~o replay decisions that reversed on-field calls and led to wins by the ~iring teams.

Ohio Apparently, Baker takes advice well BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NCAA Men~ CINCINNATI (AP) -Kenyon Martin got a standing ovation, then sai behind the Cincinnati bench and watched his former team ,play hard-nosed defense. It looked awfully familiar. Steve Logan scored 17 of his 25 points in the second half Monday night as No. 25 Cincinnati wore down Richmond 77-46 in the first round of the Las Vegas Classic. The eight-team tournament opens on campus sites, then switches to Las Vegas later this week for more round-robin games. The Bearcats (8- 1) took the court with their first national ranking of the season and a new uniform - bright red, the first time they had worn the color at home in 10 years. Playing their first game since a 20-point win over crosstown rival Xavier on Friday night, the Bearcats were sluggish and sloppy as they inched ahead of poor-shooting Richmond (34), which.missed open shot; against one of the nation's toughest defenses. Cincinnati, which held its first eight opponents to 34.3 percent from the field, got the Spiders rattled ·at the outset. They missed nine of their first I 0 shots and shot only 36.6 percent for the game. "We don't stretch it out to the point that people · get easy ones," Cincinnati coach Bob Huggins said. "We've made it dif.ficult for people to get easy baskets." Instead of depending upon a dominating front-line player, this team is holding down opponents by preventing guards from getting the ball inside. · "When we had Kenyon, we funneled everything to him.and he blocked shots," Logan said. "We realize we can't do that. We've got to guard on the perimeter." Logan put the game away by hitting six of seven shots in the second half and leading a decisive 11-2 run.

Gift Certificates Available Pill 1M . . . by COLUMBUS (AP) -The state is offering $67 millio'n in workers' compensation refunds to cities, school districts and other public employers that send officials to seminars next year on job safety. The refund will equal 25 percent of a public agency's current insurance premiums with the Ohio Bureau ofWorkers' Compensation. Cleveland will receive $4.4 mldion, for example, to attend the four-hour ;,semin'ar. Youngstown will receive $511,@0. The Cincinnati school system will get $:249,000. The refunds and seminars are bein'g offered as the number and severity of claims filed by public employers rises, which has led to two consecutive rate increases for public employers. M eanwhile, claims are going down in the private sector, where employers afe more focused on the bottom line, Rob Glenn, a BWC spokesman, said Tuesday. "Now public employers are seeing the wisdom of that, that to keep a healthy bottom line, they need to think smarter in m anaging workers' comp costs," he said. .
