It's kind of the theme of the season," coach Steve Lavin said. ''There's no easy games remaining on. the schedule .." The Bruins, 1-3 in the Pac-10, are off to their worst conference start $ince opening 0·3 in 1987-88.

"A gyy that was as critical to us as anybody was Luke Wt!lton," Ari· zona coach Lute Olson said. "He did a nice job of taking ,Jason Kapono out of what· he wanted to do,' and his' deflections created a number of turnovers for our defense." Michael Wright scored 2~ points, and the freshmen backcourt of' Gilbert Arenas and Jason Gardner combined for 38 as Arizona earned its largest win ·ever at UCLA. · · ~BA " Arenas was as close to perfect as you can be in the second half," Olson said. "I'm not sure if you can find .two fre,hmen in the country that are playing better than Arenas and Gardner." The Wildcats have won seven straight, includins a victory at thenNo. 1 Stanford on Jan. 8. "The Stanford road win gave us a lot of confidence to come in here and win," said Arenas, who had 18 points. UCLA was whistled for 23 fouls, and it paid off for the Wildcats, who hit 19 of 29 free throws. · Jerome Moiso led the Bruins with 22 points and a career-high 14 rebounds.

The acluarian charged with evaluating the financial condi· tion.of the health insurance pian has advised commissioners for three years to increase the premiums paid into the plan. But the commissioners have not done so, because, Howard said, they do not wimt to pass that ,increased premium on to county employees. . · Each single plan costs $227 per month, and a family plan $575. Employees now pay $30 per month for a single plan, and $200-per month ·for a family plan, with the commissioners making up.the diffcl'!'nce from a separate fund set aside for paying those premiums. During the past month, the commissioners have paid more than $6,600 in employer premiums into the self-insurance fund, and that amount is fairly consistent month to month, varying only slightly .as the number of participanto varies. Rather than passing along • premium increao;e to employ· ees, the commissioners have levied "user fees:• on those agencies which use the self-funded plan. ·· ',. ' Howard said commissioners do hot plan il)lmediate action to impose those user fees for 2000, but Auditor Nancy'Parker Campbell said the claims fund likely will be unable to pay all claims which are due and payable after Monday. · Those claims are processed by Medical Claims Services of Ravenswood, W.Va., a third-party administrator which is paid about $9,000 per month to. handle paperwork tind write checks for claims against the plan .. MCS bills the county .weekly for incoming claims, but those claim~ are not·paid until the check is received back from the county. . . Campbell said there have been times in the past year when claims could not be paid beCause the ins~rance fund was unable to bear the cost . · Both Howard and Davenport emphasized they woul~ not consider any changes in th~ existing plan which would result in a signifi,cant change in cove1111e for employees, or which would come at an increaSed CO!it to the employees. . :&.

The amount of public comment voiced on the project promjlled the Ohio' Department" of Transportation to create a loeal advisory panel last summer with balanced representation . · · . But those members who left the committee's Dec. 13 meeting, saying its process was "fundamentally flawed" and ODOT was continuing to move on its preferred route, have to be reminded they served in an advisory, ·not decision-making, capacity just like those members who support the project. The committee's i{tput was not ignored, but the oveJWhelming support to replace two-lane, twisting road to Athens evidently told the state something. . . Out of 100 comments on the project received Dec. 13 in Pomeroy, more than 90 weAl S!Jpportive of a new highway ~ "pretty much reflective of what we've seen throughout the entire thing," said David Celona, the committee's chair and ODOT chief of staff. · Highways, as we have said from the start, are proven catalysts for development. It took a citizen effort in Meigs County to convince the state in the 1960s to expand U.S. 33 to a four-lane within the county's borders; almost four decades later, citizens are still clamoring for the job to be finished. And they remember the many promises: "Five years from now," "two years from now'' .and the list goes on. · This is not to say environmental concerns should be disregarded. Southern Ohio's setting is one of its prime selling points, and no one ·wants or expects the region to be turned into an industrial waste dump as we set about solving our economic and unemployment problems. . Placement of a new highway in Meigs and Athens counties will be designed with the impact on the land in mind .. Since the 1970s, the area· and the natioo have become more environmentally aware and government recogniZes this concern. Environmental studies play a significant role in the planning of a highway project -just ask any community looking to get one built. Those who believe the new road is a "superfluous" use of funds need to understand sometimes it takes state and federal dollars to m!lke something happen in a depressed area . .As the old saying goes, · you need money to make money. The state has been apprised of the public's stand on a highway, both for and against.

'_ Fairland Coach Jack Harris left his :starters in the rest of the game. .What else :would one think but that he was wanting to ·tun the score up so he could make an cxam:plc of South Gallia?. : A coach is also a teacher and if he thinks ·he needs to teach his girls that way, and if :parents and the Fairland School Board 'think that is OK, then may I suggest they ·take a long hard. look · at their coach, :because he definitely ."needs a lot of guid.ance. · We at SOuth Gallia have a wonderful •group of young ladies on our junior varsity :and vmity team who will not be detoured ,by your actions, Mr. Harris. · • Right now I am ashamed to say I live in •the Fairland School District and pay taxes ,; to Fairland School, but lhat was not my choice because I live in Crown City, and :we ;were voted into that district.

Of course, the attitude change did not occur yesterday, it was in tlie '60s during the sexual rcvol uti on. There are · many ·alive today who have no idea there is any other way or that there arc rules that still apply to relationships between the two sexes. · How truly refreshing it was to read an article by . Robert Stacy McCain in The Wash· ington Times about two University of Clticago professors who are concerned that many of their students will never know the lasting love that they have experienced. • Leon and Amy Kass have been married for almost 40 . years, but are saddened to sec the ·mess the young people are making of their relations with the opposite se~. · ''They enter into lots of different kinds of relaijpnships, but few of them ever think about marriage," Mrs. Kass says. But rather than whi.ning, the Kasses are teaching a class on courtship. · They call it .a 'higher kind of sex education, which is to .train the hC11J15 and minds by means of noble examples for . romanC( leading to loving marriage.

Although the Route 33 Citizens AdviS?ry Committee. apparently has disbanded, it should not affect progress on completmg a longsought highway project for Meigs County and tht: region. It is regrettable an attempt to reach a Highways, bipartisan appro~ch on concerns over the as we have sttid . proposed. Darwm-to-Athens route h need vs. tmpact on the environment rom l e .~tarl, tlte has failed. But an effort to hear 1111 sides proven caurlysts .f<1r was made, and it is time for the state to Ol!Velopmelll.. tum comments over to its consultant, · continue planning and, ultimately, build the road. The amount of public comment voiced on the project promjlled the Ohio' Department" of Transportation to create a loeal advisory panel last summer with balanced representation . · · . But those members who left the committee's Dec. 13 meeting, saying its process was "fundamentally flawed" and ODOT was continuing to move on its preferred route, have to be reminded they served in an advisory, ·not decision-making, capacity just like those members who support the project. The committee's i{tput was not ignored, but the oveJWhelming support to replace two-lane, twisting road to Athens evidently told the state something. . . Out of 100 comments on the project received Dec. 13 in Pomeroy, more than 90 weAl S!Jpportive of a new highway ~ "pretty much reflective of what we've seen throughout the entire thing," said David Celona, the committee's chair and ODOT chief of staff. · Highways, as we have said from the start, are proven catalysts for development. It took a citizen effort in Meigs County to convince the state in the 1960s to expand U.S. 33 to a four-lane within the county's borders; almost four decades later, citizens are still clamoring for the job to be finished. And they remember the many promises: "Five years from now," "two years from now'' .and the list goes on. · This is not to say environmental concerns should be disregarded. Southern Ohio's setting is one of its prime selling points, and no one ·wants or expects the region to be turned into an industrial waste dump as we set about solving our economic and unemployment problems. . Placement of a new highway in Meigs and Athens counties will be designed with the impact on the land in mind .. Since the 1970s, the area· and the natioo have become more environmentally aware and government recogniZes this concern. Environmental studies play a significant role in the planning of a highway project -just ask any community looking to get one built. Those who believe the new road is a "superfluous" use of funds need to understand sometimes it takes state and federal dollars to m!lke something happen in a depressed area . .As the old saying goes, · you need money to make money. The state has been apprised of the public's stand on a highway, both for and against. It is now time to jump start the planning so blacktop will be seen on a new U.S. 33 within this decade. · LET'S BUILD THIS ROAD! fi Weedy's view: . ·· . . . 1 Courtship: a new kind of sex·education .a poor example '• : Dear Editor: , The score of the girls basketball game iplaycd Jan. 17 between South Gallia and ..Fairland was South Gallia 47, Fairland 98. , ., think the coach 'for Fairland, Jack Harris, thought he had to humiliate and make :an cXImplc of the South Gallia girls.

Xu Xing, an eminent paleontologist in Beijing, said he has found fossils that prove the fossilized turkey-sized creature unveiled last year may not be the evolutionary link some thought it .was. Xu's claim has forced paleontology circles, which greeted the find wit.h some fanfare, to take a second look. And the controversy has highlighted the pitfalls of international research projects involving fossils that are often smuggled out of.China and sold overseas. · Scientists have other evidence that birds evolved from dinosaurs, and Xu's finding doesn't overturn the theory. The National Geographic Society convened a press conference in · October to announce the discovery of the dinosaur, dubbed Archaeoraptor liaoningensis, which lived 120 million to 140 million years ago. .

The aovemrnent's measure of raw mille prices is at its lowest point in 22 yeats, down to .$9.63 per hundred pounds 1851 month, compared with $17.34 a year ago.

Xu Xing, an eminent paleontologist in Beijing, said he has found fossils that prove the fossilized turkey-sized creature unveiled last year may not be the evolutionary link some thought it .was. Xu's claim has forced paleontology circles, which greeted the find wit.h some fanfare, to take a second look. And the controversy has highlighted the pitfalls of international research projects involving fossils that are often smuggled out of.China and sold overseas. · Scientists have other evidence that birds evolved from dinosaurs, and Xu's finding doesn't overturn the theory. The National Geographic Society convened a press conference in · October to announce the discovery of the dinosaur, dubbed Archaeoraptor liaoningensis, which lived 120 million to 140 million years ago. .

The band's origin can be traced to the Kenya National Tileater Dance Troupe. In 1993, feeling unnecessarily censored, some members ofthe troupe became dissatisfied with the choices in their repertoire. In their frustration, Joseck Asikoye, Victor Elolo, Justo Asikoye, Evans Chagala, and Robert Owino broke away from the troupe and' formed what is now known as Jabali Afrika. The name was picked because the word J abali is Kiswahili (Kenya ' s national The Uni versity of Rio Grande will host an energetic, multifaceh~d musical experience for the benefit of its stu· c.lents and staff .. Jabali Afrika is scheduled to perform Feb~ary 7, at 7 p.m. in the John W. Berry Fine and Performing Arts Center located on URG ' campus. Jabali Afrika·originates from · East Africa 's Kenya. Tbe band's Qriginal sound, however, is ~ttributed to its own unique mixture and special fusion of African rhythms. This is a truly multif~ceted band whose .members are not DillY adept at composing songs, playing a vanety of instru- · language) for rock. This ,word was significant to the anginal members because they used to meet on a large rock in order to discuss how to advance their musical . careers Therefore, Jabali is an ideal name for the band. Since then Owino and Chagala have .left the group and the band is proud to have added Bernard Kapima to their · lineup. ·Through perseverance, Jabali Afrika began to enjoy its first taste of success when the . band was invited to play percussion in the United Radio and Television Network of Africa (URTNA) Not long after, the band launched its unique sound · at Nairobi's and dynamic side of Africa in National.

A million reasons why it's fun now to be at Game Show Network said. In one sense, " Millionaire" has made . Tauber 's day much busier. More Hollywood producers are working on developing game shows now, so t"e Game Show NetwO(k has more .to choose from for the' future. Of course, they also have more competition for the best games. · Fleming and Ta~ber•. like most people in television, have their own theories about why "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" became a big success. It's easy for people tG play a)ong as they watch, particularly because many of the questions are so easy, Tauber,said. And the focus on ·one player enables viewera to either root for or against the contestant. . . The Game Show Network executives are .most heartened that many young people arc watching. because it introduces the genre to another generation. • . Since· September, the average number of people watching ·the Game Show Network at any given time has crept ·up from· 200,000 to 260,000. That's .nowhere near the 28.8 million viewers that "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire~ · got in its first five airings of the ye.ar. Still, it By DAVIP BAUDER AP Television Writtr LOS ANGELFS (AP) - Clenching his fist in celebration, Game Show Network President Michael Fleming looks at the numbers on a piece of paper with:a sense of wonder. • They're television ratings from the nigh! before, but have' nothing to do with his network. Rather, they indicate another stunningly large audience for ABC's quiz craze, "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." For Fleming, that's the ·next best thing. You would think now would be a great time to be running a cable n.et· work devoted to game shows, and you 'd be right. The previously little-noticed Game Show Network. is surfing the wave of interest in "Millionaire." It is gaining in viewers, attention and, most importantly at this stage, in cable systems that offer its .service. · . "It does, in SO!l)C way, justify what we've .always known - that this is a very powerful genre of programming," said Jake Tauber, a former "Match Game" writer who is head of programming at GSN. In December, the Game Show Network was added to cable systems in 1.8 million homes, nearly double the best month ev~r in its five-year history. Roughly one-qwirter of the nation 's television homes have access 'to the network. It has always had to struggle to be noticed by \he people ~h9 ,dC£i~e which .networks are· picked up by cable systems, Fleming said. They tend to be middle-age white males; a group that trilditionally has little interest in game shows. "Now they are calling us instead of us calling them," Tauber said. Viewers of the Game Show Net- shall were thrown away and forever lost. For the future, the Game Show Network is counting heavily on an interactive television world where people will be able to play along with their games at home. · · · Only a small fraction of ·viewers now have the digital equipment nee· essary to do .this, but the network is catering to them. "lnquizition" allows contestants at home to compete with players on the show, and win cash prizes. The network is even going back to · the tapes of old game shows to con· coct ways viewers can play along. It expects the new games the netw(Jrk . developS to an 'have some·lnteractive · element. · "It will set us apart from everyone on the television landscape and set us apart from any other service," Tauber · work get a steady diet of classic quizzes and a handful of originals, like ·"lnquizition," a chalfenging test of knowledge with an impatient mystery man as host, and "3's a Crowd," a remake of a relationship show with host Alan Thicki:. · The classics, including " Match Game,"" "Family .Feud"' and uThe Newlywed Game;· · are like a look into a time capsule with excruciating haircuts, clothing styles ·and social mores. The late "Match Game" host Gene Rayburn's leer is definitely the product of a different era. Producers of many of these chestnuts hung on to the tapes, in some cases storing them in their homes, c<iirectly 'anticipating a' hJcratlve"new market. The not-so-prescient left some unfortunate historical gaps: all but about 100 of the old ."Hollywood Squares" episodes with Peter Mar· beats tlie alternative. "We were a little cOncerned that it might go the .other way," Fleming admiited. He's still a little worried, actually. "All of a sudden we're looking at a prime-time television schedule that 'has a game show on a major network every ·night of the week," he said, "'fhllt's some prei!Y. stiff competition for us. It could still have a backlash." URG .~ The band has also released twp .C D 1s in . Europe and mo~ recently, a ti,ird CD entit~ Journey in the United States. ~ Jabali Afrika is definitely on a journey to success. The memr hers of the band hope that tbeli eclectic sound will stand sollit just like a rock, lasting lo~ enough so that future gener$~ tions of musicians will be abl'&: to build their lnusic usi11g Jabaji Afrika's sound as their found,.tion.

The band's origin can be traced to the Kenya National Tileater Dance Troupe. In 1993, feeling unnecessarily censored, some members ofthe troupe became dissatisfied with the choices in their repertoire. In their frustration, Joseck Asikoye, Victor Elolo, Justo Asikoye, Evans Chagala, and Robert Owino broke away from the troupe and' formed what is now known as Jabali Afrika. The name was picked because the word J abali is Kiswahili (Kenya ' s national The Uni versity of Rio Grande will host an energetic, multifaceh~d musical experience for the benefit of its stu· c.lents and staff ..

This ,word was significant to the anginal members because they used to meet on a large rock in order to discuss how to advance their musical . careers Therefore, Jabali is an ideal name for the band. Since then Owino and Chagala have .left the group and the band is proud to have added Bernard Kapima to their · lineup. ·Through perseverance, Jabali Afrika began to enjoy its first taste of success when the . band was invited to play percussion in the United Radio and Television Network of Africa (URTNA) Not long after, the band launched its unique sound · at Nairobi's and dynamic side of Africa in National.

A million reasons why it's fun now to be at Game Show Network said. In one sense, " Millionaire" has made . Tauber 's day much busier. More Hollywood producers are working on developing game shows now, so t"e Game Show NetwO(k has more .to choose from for the' future. Of course, they also have more competition for the best games. · Fleming and Ta~ber•. like most people in television, have their own theories about why "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" became a big success. It's easy for people tG play a)ong as they watch, particularly because many of the questions are so easy, Tauber,said. And the focus on ·one player enables viewera to either root for or against the contestant. . . The Game Show Network executives are .most heartened that many young people arc watching. because it introduces the genre to another generation. • . Since· September, the average number of people watching ·the Game Show Network at any given time has crept ·up from· 200,000 to 260,000. That's .nowhere near the 28.8 million viewers that "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire~ · got in its first five airings of the ye.ar. Still, it By DAVIP BAUDER AP Television Writtr LOS ANGELFS (AP) - Clenching his fist in celebration, Game Show Network President Michael Fleming looks at the numbers on a piece of paper with:a sense of wonder. • They're television ratings from the nigh! before, but have' nothing to do with his network. Rather, they indicate another stunningly large audience for ABC's quiz craze, "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." For Fleming, that's the ·next best thing. You would think now would be a great time to be running a cable n.et· work devoted to game shows, and you 'd be right. The previously little-noticed Game Show Network. is surfing the wave of interest in "Millionaire." It is gaining in viewers, attention and, most importantly at this stage, in cable systems that offer its .service. · . "It does, in SO!l)C way, justify what we've .always known - that this is a very powerful genre of programming," said Jake Tauber, a former "Match Game" writer who is head of programming at GSN. In December, the Game Show Network was added to cable systems in 1.8 million homes, nearly double the best month ev~r in its five-year history. Roughly one-qwirter of the nation 's television homes have access 'to the network. It has always had to struggle to be noticed by \he people ~h9 ,dC£i~e which .networks are· picked up by cable systems, Fleming said. They tend to be middle-age white males; a group that trilditionally has little interest in game shows. "Now they are calling us instead of us calling them," Tauber said. Viewers of the Game Show Net- shall were thrown away and forever lost. For the future, the Game Show Network is counting heavily on an interactive television world where people will be able to play along with their games at home. · · · Only a small fraction of ·viewers now have the digital equipment nee· essary to do .this, but the network is catering to them. "lnquizition" allows contestants at home to compete with players on the show, and win cash prizes. The network is even going back to · the tapes of old game shows to con· coct ways viewers can play along. It expects the new games the netw(Jrk . developS to an 'have some·lnteractive · element. · "It will set us apart from everyone on the television landscape and set us apart from any other service," Tauber · work get a steady diet of classic quizzes and a handful of originals, like ·"lnquizition," a chalfenging test of knowledge with an impatient mystery man as host, and "3's a Crowd," a remake of a relationship show with host Alan Thicki:. · The classics, including " Match Game,"" "Family .Feud"' and uThe Newlywed Game;· · are like a look into a time capsule with excruciating haircuts, clothing styles ·and social mores. The late "Match Game" host Gene Rayburn's leer is definitely the product of a different era. Producers of many of these chestnuts hung on to the tapes, in some cases storing them in their homes, c<iirectly 'anticipating a' hJcratlve"new market. The not-so-prescient left some unfortunate historical gaps: all but about 100 of the old ."Hollywood Squares" episodes with Peter Mar· beats tlie alternative. "We were a little cOncerned that it might go the .other way," Fleming admiited. He's still a little worried, actually. "All of a sudden we're looking at a prime-time television schedule that 'has a game show on a major network every ·night of the week," he said, "'fhllt's some prei!Y. stiff competition for us. It could still have a backlash." URG .~ The band has also released twp .C D 1s in . Europe and mo~ recently, a ti,ird CD entit~ Journey in the United States. ~ Jabali Afrika is definitely on a journey to success. The memr hers of the band hope that tbeli eclectic sound will stand sollit just like a rock, lasting lo~ enough so that future gener$~ tions of musicians will be abl'&: to build their lnusic usi11g Jabaji Afrika's sound as their found,.tion.

Iowa (AP)- Btll Bnodley sought a finalweekend focus on tuning his political organization, but struagled to move the focus of hts presidential campaign beyond discussions of his irregular heanbeat. While Bradley sought to discount the condition as ·merely "a nuisance/' he was dogged throughout the day .by shouted questions from l't(lOl1aS and even polile 10quiries from backers. "It is not- a factor in the campaign or in conduct in office," said an exasperated Bnodley. "If I'm sick at my stomach, do I have to !ell you I'm sock at my stomach?" · Bradley's rival for the Democratic nomination, Vice PreSident AI Gore, eased up, though he had previously set aside Friday to tour his health care plan and was questioned as he toured a hospttal "He's out there camprugn10g, that's the good news," said Gore. "It's a routine matter " Already lrathng 10 polls m Iowa, and wtlh Gore looking better 10 New Hampshtre, Bradley found the beahh issue and his handling of the discl(\sures consuming hos campaign as tl headed into the final weekend before Iowa's leadoff nommattng caucuses. The subject took center stage when Bradley continued he'd had four episodes of trregular heanbeats smce disclosiOg last month he suffered from that conditton Reponers demanded to know why Bradley hadn't disclosed the eptsodes when they happened, and even backers conceded they had worries._At a rally in Muscaune, Bonme Weeks told Bradley she'd seen a deluge of reports on televiston and asked hrm to set the record stratght. "I was wondenng about his health," she said "Is he gomg to be fit of we elect him'>" Looking stem, Bradley said there was nothtng to fear, which satisfied Ms Weeks "It's a common condttton," said Bradley. "It's a nut· sance for me and 11 shouldn't be a concern for you." By contrast, Gore spoke to hts largest crowd yet Fnday night, draw10g 1,000 students to Iowa State Umve(sity to warn against overconfidence "We can't take anylhtng for granted" in the hours remaining before the caucuses, Gore said. "We need to make the best use of every sinale one of those minutes and hours to act a big turnout." Bradley aides had planned a midday bricfina, but the candidate appeared instead in 111 cft'Oit to queU the health issue lnmad, the noisy press conference ~ the former New Jersey senator and pro basketball player on the defensive. o. ' "No, I'm not wonied about it," ~d Bradley. "This IS a common condition, millions of Americans have ir." At ralites tn vote-rich eastern Iowa, he Ufl!ed backers to focus mslead on gelllng their people to the caucuses. " If you make a few more calls and get 10 more people out to your caucus, we can do better. than most people expect," Bradley said "There are three days left and we have a lot of work to do," he satd "We have some unfinished busmess" Bradley s<iught to quell the uproar over his health late tn the day, releasing a stalement from his cardiologosl. "These episodes have not, in any way, anterfered with hts busy schedule," satd Or. Roben H. fleissenbuttel. "He has been advosed to contmue all normal activities without hmnauons." "There's really nothmg to deal with," said spokesman Enc Hauser "You can't control what the bean does, so the timing is irrelevant." There's some myslery about what tnggers the episodes, and Bradley offered a layman's tbeory that a change tn soft drtnks may have mcreased hts cafl"eine intake. That has led htm lo drop the cream soda he has been dnnktng sii)Ce December But he satd he has no plans to see a doctor for a checkup "If he has a problem and n's somethtng that won't go away, lthtnk maybe in the long run he ought to say, 'I've got other things to do. I don't need the stress of being presIdent,"' Joyce Brown, a 59-year-old Democrat, said between stps of coffee at a Colfax dtner. Whtle m111y argued the fur(){ wtll have httle lastmg impact, Bradley aides were nervous because it was consuming the final days of the caucus campaign. Aides once wonied about dealmg with an Iowa loss feared the margin could grow. Character, not economy, likely_ factor behind ·voter choices By RON FOURNIER AP Political Writer BOONE, Iowa - The economy is sizzling, and the Cold War has thawed. So what are voters looking for in a president this year? It's their character, stuptd. "The lack of an overwhelmmg issue has made personahty and character Irati:; a more imponant pan of the campaign," said Repubhcan pollster Ed Goeas of Ale.andria, Va. Recogntzmg the change m voter attitudes since 1992, presidential candtdates thos year are defimng thetr character wtlh policies and promises. "I pledge to uphold the dignity of the office," Repubhcan nauonal front-runner George W. Bush says at every stop, his nght hand ratsed m the air. Vice President AI Gore, the leadlOg Democratic candidate who os trying to emerge from President Clinton 's scandal-tinged shadow, says of hts boss' IOVolvement woth a Whtte House intern : " I wouldn't have done that " Intervtews with more than two dozen voters 10 Iowa a)ld New Hampshtre suggest the phenomenon cuts across party lines, though Republicans and Democrats are lookmg for sltghtly dofferen< quahties in the next president. GOP voters cote mtegnty, honesty and even fidelity as key ingredients. Democrats menttoned the same characteristics in unusually hogh numbers, but seem more incltned to want experienced leadership. Voters in both parties say Clioron's impeachment embarrassed the nation and Is a major reason·for their anx oety about who will occupy the White House. "I feel Clinton betrayed my trust." said one Democrat, Cynthia Onigman, 74, of Manchester, N H.. "That's something I don't think we'd have to worry about with Bill Bradley," Gore's sole rival. Mike Fank's sigh left a trail of • whtte vapor in the frigtd Iowa air. "I just want a president who won't lie to me,'' the Republican sa18 as snow ptled atop his box of bakery-fresh donuts. "Is that too much to ask?" Thts may be the legacy of the two-term prestdent whose 1992 campatgn tapped the fears of recessoon-weary Amencans, panocularly . in New Hampshire "It's the economy, stuptd," read the stgn poSted in Chnton 's Arkansas headquaners . . Exit polls from that election showed honesty far down the list of values thtl( mattered most when people picked a presodent, at the top was "bnngmg change " When th10g s changed and the economy soared - when New Hampshore's hogh-tech 10dustry replaced strugghng texule mills as the symbol of that state's economy - the publtc's emphasts on values shtfted, too . In 1996 extl polls, honesty was tops along wtth " shares my vtew of government" 10 personal qualities that mattered most whenO,hoos10g a president. A year after Chnton 's trial, a Los Angeles Times poll shows that near· ly three-quarters ' of Iowa caucusgoers say they were supponmg thetr candidate because of a personal trait rather than his stance on tssues. "Honesty and integrity are it for me," saod Barbara Lund. of Polk City, Iowa. "Health care and all that is imponant, but nothtng they promise means much tf they're lying about it." • Susan Henning of Boone, Iowa, watched through a storefront wmdow as Steve Forbes boarded hts well-appoinled campaign bus. Slie only wanled to know. one thtng about the GOP candidate: "Is he faithful?" " If you're not faithful m your marriage, you won't be fatthful to the people," she reasoned. Sallie Klum, 65, a Republican from Hollts, N.H, does not know who she wants to be president but she knows what she wants. "I think when you give someone the right to provide the leadership for your country, for your future and the future of your chtldren and grtlndchildren, that's a huge gift of trust," she said Honesty and mtegrtty are omportantto Bob Connett, but the Democrat satd he ts "mamly looking f~r somebody who has the abthty and knows how to run thls country " Greg Lewts, who had been shooting rite breeze with Connett at a Des Momes umon hall, satd the next president " needs !O keep th10gs on track." Both backers of Gore, theor sentiments reflect polls . that show the vice president IS a rare cand1date whose supponers don't cite character issues as their No. I attraction. "Morality/Integnty/Honesty" ranked thtrd, well behind his expenence and educatton poltc1es Democrats as a whole were only slightly less likely than Republicans to Cite a character tra1t as the reason for choosmg their candidate . GOP pollster John McLaughhn said poltcy issues sun are 1mpona1_1t in the 2000 election, especially when candtdates use them to highlight character traits. i t94 Cavalier, 2 door. 4 cyl. , 5 1 ~d, SERVICES C.D Playor, A/C. $3000 Equlpl!lllll (304)07~. ,!1194 <llrnot Color Sulci< Regal, 2 :OOO.o.

G:imn - iornltnrl• Page D7 Bradley seeks final-.weekend focus on phones, not heart CLINTON. Iowa (AP)- Btll Bnodley sought a finalweekend focus on tuning his political organization, but struagled to move the focus of hts presidential campaign beyond discussions of his irregular heanbeat. While Bradley sought to discount the condition as ·merely "a nuisance/' he was dogged throughout the day .by shouted questions from l't(lOl1aS and even polile 10quiries from backers. "It is not- a factor in the campaign or in conduct in office," said an exasperated Bnodley. "If I'm sick at my stomach, do I have to !ell you I'm sock at my stomach?" · Bradley's rival for the Democratic nomination, Vice PreSident AI Gore, eased up, though he had previously set aside Friday to tour his health care plan and was questioned as he toured a hospttal "He's out there camprugn10g, that's the good news," said Gore. "It's a routine matter " Already lrathng 10 polls m Iowa, and wtlh Gore looking better 10 New Hampshtre, Bradley found the beahh issue and his handling of the discl(\sures consuming hos campaign as tl headed into the final weekend before Iowa's leadoff nommattng caucuses. The subject took center stage when Bradley continued he'd had four episodes of trregular heanbeats smce disclosiOg last month he suffered from that conditton Reponers demanded to know why Bradley hadn't disclosed the eptsodes when they happened, and even backers conceded they had worries._At a rally in Muscaune, Bonme Weeks told Bradley she'd seen a deluge of reports on televiston and asked hrm to set the record stratght. "I was wondenng about his health," she said "Is he gomg to be fit of we elect him'>" Looking stem, Bradley said there was nothtng to fear, which satisfied Ms Weeks "It's a common condttton," said Bradley. "It's a nut· sance for me and 11 shouldn't be a concern for you." By contrast, Gore spoke to hts largest crowd yet Fnday night, draw10g 1,000 students to Iowa State Umve(sity to warn against overconfidence "We can't take anylhtng for granted" in the hours remaining before the caucuses, Gore said. "We need to make the best use of every sinale one of those minutes and hours to act a big turnout." Bradley aides had planned a midday bricfina, but the candidate appeared instead in 111 cft'Oit to queU the health issue lnmad, the noisy press conference ~ the former New Jersey senator and pro basketball player on the defensive. o. ' "No, I'm not wonied about it," ~d Bradley. "This IS a common condition, millions of Americans have ir." At ralites tn vote-rich eastern Iowa, he Ufl!ed backers to focus mslead on gelllng their people to the caucuses. " If you make a few more calls and get 10 more people out to your caucus, we can do better. than most people expect," Bradley said "There are three days left and we have a lot of work to do," he satd "We have some unfinished busmess" Bradley s<iught to quell the uproar over his health late tn the day, releasing a stalement from his cardiologosl. "These episodes have not, in any way, anterfered with hts busy schedule," satd Or. Roben H. fleissenbuttel. "He has been advosed to contmue all normal activities without hmnauons." "There's really nothmg to deal with," said spokesman Enc Hauser "You can't control what the bean does, so the timing is irrelevant." There's some myslery about what tnggers the episodes, and Bradley offered a layman's tbeory that a change tn soft drtnks may have mcreased hts cafl"eine intake. That has led htm lo drop the cream soda he has been dnnktng sii)Ce December But he satd he has no plans to see a doctor for a checkup "If he has a problem and n's somethtng that won't go away, lthtnk maybe in the long run he ought to say, 'I've got other things to do. I don't need the stress of being presIdent,"' Joyce Brown, a 59-year-old Democrat, said between stps of coffee at a Colfax dtner. Whtle m111y argued the fur(){ wtll have httle lastmg impact, Bradley aides were nervous because it was consuming the final days of the caucus campaign. Aides once wonied about dealmg with an Iowa loss feared the margin could grow. Character, not economy, likely_ factor behind ·voter choices By RON FOURNIER AP Political Writer BOONE, Iowa - The economy is sizzling, and the Cold War has thawed. So what are voters looking for in a president this year? It's their character, stuptd. "The lack of an overwhelmmg issue has made personahty and character Irati:; a more imponant pan of the campaign," said Repubhcan pollster Ed Goeas of Ale.andria, Va. Recogntzmg the change m voter attitudes since 1992, presidential candtdates thos year are defimng thetr character wtlh policies and promises. "I pledge to uphold the dignity of the office," Repubhcan nauonal front-runner George W. Bush says at every stop, his nght hand ratsed m the air. Vice President AI Gore, the leadlOg Democratic candidate who os trying to emerge from President Clinton 's scandal-tinged shadow, says of hts boss' IOVolvement woth a Whtte House intern : " I wouldn't have done that " Intervtews with more than two dozen voters 10 Iowa a)ld New Hampshtre suggest the phenomenon cuts across party lines, though Republicans and Democrats are lookmg for sltghtly dofferen< quahties in the next president. GOP voters cote mtegnty, honesty and even fidelity as key ingredients. Democrats menttoned the same characteristics in unusually hogh numbers, but seem more incltned to want experienced leadership. Voters in both parties say Clioron's impeachment embarrassed the nation and Is a major reason·for their anx oety about who will occupy the White House. "I feel Clinton betrayed my trust." said one Democrat, Cynthia Onigman, 74, of Manchester, N H.. "That's something I don't think we'd have to worry about with Bill Bradley," Gore's sole rival. Mike Fank's sigh left a trail of • whtte vapor in the frigtd Iowa air. "I just want a president who won't lie to me,'' the Republican sa18 as snow ptled atop his box of bakery-fresh donuts. "Is that too much to ask?" Thts may be the legacy of the two-term prestdent whose 1992 campatgn tapped the fears of recessoon-weary Amencans, panocularly . in New Hampshire "It's the economy, stuptd," read the stgn poSted in Chnton 's Arkansas headquaners . . Exit polls from that election showed honesty far down the list of values thtl( mattered most when people picked a presodent, at the top was "bnngmg change " When th10g s changed and the economy soared - when New Hampshore's hogh-tech 10dustry replaced strugghng texule mills as the symbol of that state's economy - the publtc's emphasts on values shtfted, too . In 1996 extl polls, honesty was tops along wtth " shares my vtew of government" 10 personal qualities that mattered most whenO,hoos10g a president. A year after Chnton 's trial, a Los Angeles Times poll shows that near· ly three-quarters ' of Iowa caucusgoers say they were supponmg thetr candidate because of a personal trait rather than his stance on tssues. "Honesty and integrity are it for me," saod Barbara Lund. of Polk City, Iowa. "Health care and all that is imponant, but nothtng they promise means much tf they're lying about it." • Susan Henning of Boone, Iowa, watched through a storefront wmdow as Steve Forbes boarded hts well-appoinled campaign bus. Slie only wanled to know. one thtng about the GOP candidate: "Is he faithful?" " If you're not faithful m your marriage, you won't be fatthful to the people," she reasoned. Sallie Klum, 65, a Republican from Hollts, N.H, does not know who she wants to be president but she knows what she wants. "I think when you give someone the right to provide the leadership for your country, for your future and the future of your chtldren and grtlndchildren, that's a huge gift of trust," she said Honesty and mtegrtty are omportantto Bob Connett, but the Democrat satd he ts "mamly looking f~r somebody who has the abthty and knows how to run thls country " Greg Lewts, who had been shooting rite breeze with Connett at a Des Momes umon hall, satd the next president " needs !O keep th10gs on track." Both backers of Gore, theor sentiments reflect polls . that show the vice president IS a rare cand1date whose supponers don't cite character issues as their No. I attraction. "Morality/Integnty/Honesty" ranked thtrd, well behind his expenence and educatton poltc1es Democrats as a whole were only slightly less likely than Republicans to Cite a character tra1t as the reason for choosmg their candidate . GOP pollster John McLaughhn said poltcy issues sun are 1mpona1_1t in the 2000 election, especially when candtdates use them to highlight character traits. i t94 Cavalier, 2 door. 4 cyl. , 5 1 ~d, SERVICES C.D Playor, A/C. $3000 Equlpl!lllll (304)07~. ,!1194 <llrnot Color Sulci< Regal, 2 :OOO.o.

A fresh 3 inches of'snow fell on Meigs County over the weekend in addition to accumulation from last week, bringing the total in ·some areas to well over 7 inches. Low temperatures ranging from the teens to the single digits ensured none of the white stuff would disappear quickly. , A majority of roa<js were cleared or treated by Sunday, prompting ·some local schools to operate on a . delay this morning. aasses in public and private schools were canceled twice last week. Between Saturday and this morn-- . ing, the Gallia-Meigs Post of the State Highway Patrol investigated nin~ accidents in Gallia and Meigs counties. · Temperatures were expected to remain i:hilly this week, with highs climbing into the upper 30s by l'ri· day and snow showers or flurries· expected each day. the National Weather.&ervice r~po,rted. The amount of snow may have a positive side in repleneshing w·ater supplies throughout drought-stricken Ohio, the state Department of Natural Resources believes. "Ohio is · currently midway through its annual water-supply recharge season, which runs from October through April, and unfortu· nately, some regions of the state are not off to an exceptionally good start," said David Cashell, a hydrologist with .ODNR's Division of Water. · "For all of its aggravation, the recent nasty weather will help replenish our reserviors and groundwater systems," he added.
