BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS On a day when ex-Seattle teanuru.te Ken Griffey, Jr., enjoyed his first home run Arizona pitcher Randy Johnson, another Mariners refugee, threw a five-hitte< and struck out 13 to beat Jason Schmidt i~ the Diamondbacks' t -0 victory over Pittsburgh. "A game like today is eKtra special because- you realize that any mistake by the pitcher could be the ballgame," the Big Unit said. "I had no room to make any mistakes." For Johnson (2-0), the win marked his 26th career shutout and 69th complete game. He has 127 double-digit strikeout game's in his career, including both of his starts this season. "Every time he walks out there if he doesn't strike out 10 and give up five or six hits and throw a shutout or give up one or two runs, rhe first question is 'What's wrong?"' Arizona ·manager Buck Showalter said. "That's a heck of a thing to operate under every time out." Steve Finley singled with one out in the seventh off Schmidt (0-2) . took third on Travis Lee's bloop single to center and scored on Lenny Harris' sacrifice fly. Braves 9, Gianu 3 Bobby Bonilla had his first three-RBI game since May 6, 1998. Bonilla hit a solo homer in the fifth inning for. a 3-2 lead at Turner Field and added a two-run single in the sixth that chased starter Russ Ortiz (0-1). Tom Glavine (1-0) allowed two runs and five hits in seven innings, and struck out six. r Marlins 7, Roc:kies 6 Presion Wilson hit a controversial home run and Mike Lowell drove in four runs with a three-run double in the fifth and a solo homer in the eighth. Wilson's two-run homer down the left-field line Masters fntm,..Bl him thro'ughout his career. Singh, who won the PGA Championship at Sahalee in 1998, played with such composure in the face of so many challengers. And that might be ~nough to finally shift the att~ntion to a game that \veathered a wicked weekend at Augusta. . He finished at 278 and earned S82il,OOO for his eighth career victory. Els, a two-time U.S. Open champion, couldn't get a birdie putt to fall on the last three holes and was at 281. 1'he biggest threat came from Duval, in con~ 1ention on the back nine Sunday at Augusta for the third straight year. His dreams died with a risky shot that wound up in Rae's Creek, a bogey on the parS 13th. A bogey on the final hole gave i:>uval a 70, and he finished in a tie for third with Loren Roberts. Woods, trying to pull off the greatest 36-hole comeback in Masters history, got within three of the lead but played even-par on the back and finished fifth, six strokes back. "I was so focused on what I was doing," Singh said. ••It meant a lot." l'}nd it showed when last year's winner, Jose Maria Olazabal, helped him slip into the coveted green jacket. "It feels great," a beaming Singh said. "I don't think anyone should be surprised that Vijay Singh won this golf tournament:' Duval said. ''He's a wonderful player." Singh set the tone for his victory Sunday morning. With frost melting into dew, he returned to the course to complete his third round and made two critical par putts that enabled him to maintain his three-stroke cushion over Duval. , That paid dividends on the back nine Sunday, when Singh managed to escape danger twice without losing his lead. Clinging to a two-stroke lead over Duval, Singh hit his approach into the pond left of the 11th green. After taking his. penalty drop, he hit a delicate chip .up to 4 feet and dropped only one shot. Then on the par-3 12th, he hit over the green into the most daunting bunker at Augusta. Faced with a shot that sloped dowh the green toward more troub~: he blasted out to 2 feet - the same shot Olazabal pulled off to win last yc:ar. Duval; who lives near Singh in ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., was still poised to win his first major championship until he made a mistake that will live with him until his next chance. He selected a dangerous ro1,1te to the par-5 t 3th green, then bowed his head as the, ball plunked into the water.

Ditto for Els, the 30-year-old South Afri~an who got word Saturday that his buddy had wqn a S2 million lottery and thought it might be a good omen. "[ felt like I was going to win the tournament when I stepped on the first tee," Els said. "I was really trying to push too hard." ~ Woods, an overwhelming favorite at the start of the week, wound up missing key shots on the par Ss. He still needs five more green jackets to catch Jack Nicldaus. "I knew going into this week that every time I play, this game is very fickle:' Woods said. "Even though I didn't get off to a good start Thursday, I gave myself a chance. I got back into the tourna: ment and had a chance on Sunday." Woods, who opened with a 75 and was nine strokes back after two days, got the d~>ficit down to three strokes early and seemed poised to pounce. Singh was in the fairway, waiting for the group ahead to tee off on No. 4, when he glanced up at the large white leaderboard in time to see another birdie posted for Woods. Singh proceeded to hit long and three-putt from 50 feet off the fringe. Woods went out in 33. He was 4 under for the tournam~nt and slowly gaining momentum for the kind of back-nine charge that have become so famous at Augusta. But Singh's biggest threat was Duval. He made a couple of 8-foot putts early to close a three-stroke deficit to one, then really began to apply the pressure with birdie putts from 12 feet on No.6, a good pitch to 2 feet on the par-5 eighth, and a ~~ footer on No. 9. What did that get him? Nothing. Singh matched every birdie and answered every great approach by Duval with one of his own and took that slim lead to the back nine. Woods ran out of chances. There were too few fist pumps and too many sighs, none louder than when his 4-foot birdie putt on the par-5 t 3th turned away. Only two Masters champions since 1992 have failed 19 birdie the hole, and it' was the first time all week that Woods had to settle for par. It could have worse. . Duval was exactly where he had planned on being for the past seven months. That's when he started po!,1nding his body into shape with heavy lifting, lots of running and a disciplined diet. All he Wanted was a chance ,on the' back nine of Augusta come Sunday, and here he was. With one bad decision, and a bad swing to match, there he went. · Singh never gave him or anyone else a chance. Despite a three-putt bogey on the 16th, he was always in the fairway. always on the green.

What a journey. lead lap. · The first 14 cars, including Earnhardt, did not pit under the caution, allowing them to stay behind the ·pace car. But they were on the tail end of the lead lap when it went back tO green, with Ken. Schrader 6nt and Wallace second. Wallace .quickly overtook Schrader to regain the lead, completing his remarkable surge back to the front just 73 laps after his tire went down. He just couldn't duplicate the performance on new tires at the end. . Another caution flew when Jeff Gordon bumped points leader Bobby Labonte and spun him out with 135 laps to go. That allowed Earnhardt and the rest of the cars on the tail end of the lead lat> to come back around, and the race was back on. · The 17 cautions slowed the race for 112 laps, tying the record set in 1980. The race also featured 14 lead changes among eight drivers, and Martin's victory moved him into scond in the Winston Cup points race, 36 behind Bobby Labonte, who finished 12th.

The mussel's cling to underwater objects or wrap around other acquatic life and slowly kill them. "We have watched the zebra mussel march in, build up and kill all the native mussels that used to live there;' said Patricia Morrison, coordinator of the Ohio River Cooperative Zebra Mussel Monitoring Network. • "It may not be something most people immediately see, but the . effects of which most people will eventually feel. It's a biological machine that's out of control," she said. Zebra mussels have cau~d similar problems in the Great Lakes and elsewhere.

The money would be used toward an estimated $90 million biomedical center, a campus setting where fl edgling companies could be nurtured and established companies can "This il one ·of the most exciting initiatives we've ever seen. ~'re fighting to retain manufacturing job$, a fight we often lose.~ need to create jobs of the future, and this is what it's all about."

"What I'd like to see is a thriving commer-eial activi ty he re within the next .five years, maybe half a dozen to a dozen companies, some startup and some established, in the area of biomedi cal sciences and technology;· Auston said Monday. Messages were left Tu esday requesting comment from Clevela nd Clinic ano Univer- sity Hospitals offi cials. The startup money for the biotech park' is the largest single allotment for Cleveland in Taft's capital budget plan. "This is one of the most exciting initiatives we've ever seen," said Mike Wise, Tati's district direcror. "We're fighting to retain ma nufacturingjobs, a fight we often lose. We need to create jobs of the future, and this is what it's all about." · Wise said while the three institutions were driving the initiative, others, such as MetroHealth· Medical Center and Cleveland Sfate University, might join. "Certainly in the commercialization field, this is a first among these three institutions;· said Frank Samuel of the Edison Biotechnology Center in Cleveland, a publicly funded group involved with siarting and growing biotech companies. Gore says relatives should Bush to tour social services work out Gonzalez dispute agency, give poverty speech VANDALIA (AP) - In a bid to win the hearts of a" roomful of undecided voters, Vice President AI Gore shared his views on the custody dispute over a 6-year-old Cuban refugee, a con- · troversial Gore incinerator in eastern Ohio and a host of other issues. About 250 people CfO\Vded into the library at Vandalia-Butler Hign School on Monday night for the two-hour ~own meeting. The vice president appeared relaxed and ac ease with·the audience, which came armed with questions of every sort. Gore said the relatives of 6f year-old Cuban refugee Elian Gonzalez should be aliO\ved to try to work out amongst themselves the escalating custody dispute over the boy. "With tensions as high as they are . and with both sides trying to figure out a way to come to a resolution, I think that we need to encourage the talks between the family members 'themselves," said Gore. "Le> the entire f.1nlily, including the Florida relatives, talk with one another without' people from the U.S. government or the Cuban government or lawyers on either side;' he said. Gore .addressed President Clinton's sex scandal involving Monica Lewinsky when asked what he would do to bring respect to the office of the presidency. Gore said he WC.uld bring his "values of faith and family:• CLEVELAND (AP) -Texas Gov. George W. Bush will continue courting Hispanic voters with a visit Tuesday to a social services agency that caters to the group. ' The pl,'esumptive Republican Bush presidential nominee also will give a speech that focuses on helping those on the outskirts of poverty move into the middle class , his campaign said Monday. Bush will tour El Barrio, a 10-year-old agency that provides a variety of services for the needy, including job trainj ng, GED classes and summer camp for Y?,U.J!gsters. A large portion of the agency's clients are Hispanics , said Chris Larson , the agency's chief op erating officer. Larson said he was not surprised by Bush's decision to vi sit the center because the governor has been reaching out to Hispanics during his presidential campaign . " "The Hispani c vote is going to be very key in the election," Larson said. "It 's going to be a very smart move to go after the Hispanic vote." Bush wi-ll then speak to about 250 community and church leaders at the West Side Jlcumenical Ministry. The faith-based organization reaches out to more than 50,000 people through several churches, said Elving Otero, the agency's president. USEC must shut do~ · oJie :~ its plants PADUCAH, Ky.

IEFS ' Mussels fordn1 chanps CINCINNATI (AP) - Rapidly reproducing zebra mussels that block intake valves for power plants and boat engines are forcing ecological changes in the Ohio River. The mussel's cling to underwater objects or wrap around other acquatic life and slowly kill them. "We have watched the zebra mussel march in, build up and kill all the native mussels that used to live there;' said Patricia Morrison, coordinator of the Ohio River Cooperative Zebra Mussel Monitoring Network. • "It may not be something most people immediately see, but the . effects of which most people will eventually feel. It's a biological machine that's out of control," she said. Zebra mussels have cau~d similar problems in the Great Lakes and elsewhere. No\V they are overwhelming native freshwater mussels in the Ohio River. Their numbers also have forced con1,panies and boaters to spend millions clqning intake valves and repairing damaged systems. "They are abundant to super abundant;' said Michael Miller, biology professor at the University of Cincinnati. In som~ places in the river, they may be three levels high because they attach on top of each other, he said. Cleveland coundl moves forward CLEVELAND (AP) - A councilman has ·proposed approving the first phase of Mayor Michael R .

The legislation introduced Monday, by Micha!'l Dolan, chairman of council's aviation committee, would a~nding about $354 million to build a 7,145-foot runway. It would open' next year, when existing runways are projected to hit their flight limits. White has asked council to approve the entire expansion plan, · which includes lengthening the proposed runway to 9,000 feet in 2004 and.lengthening the airport's other major runway in 2006. · Council President Michael Polensek has complained White wanted council to vote on the expansion once, leaving council with no oversight on spending. Dolan's proposal would relocate a small part of NASA's Glenn . Research Center, at a cost of nearly $100 million. Airport planners want about 32 of the research center's 351 acres. 111ade' a Pulitzer finalist TOLEDO (AP) - The Blade was one of three finalists in the Pulitzer Prize award for invesrigative reporting for its articles citing · a 50-year pattern of misconduct by the American government and the beryllium industry The Pulitzer Prizes,journalism's highest awards, were announced Monday. ,., The Blade's six-part series, written by Sam Roe, exposed how the pernment-sanctioned use of the metal beryllium caused the ·Injury and death of dozens of worken.

The Cleveland Clinic Foundation and University Hospitals of Cleveland - which usually are in competition with each otherplui Case Western R eserve U nivcrsity have been discussing a means to make Cleveland more competitive with cities better focused on high-tech business, The Plain Dealer reported Tuesday. The idea gained credence last week with the announcement that Gov. Bob Taft's capital projects budget for 2000-2002 includes $8.5 million as "seed money" fo help launch the biotech park. The money would be used toward an estimated $90 million biomedical center, a campus setting where fl edgling companies could be nurtured and established companies can "This il one ·of the most exciting initiatives we've ever seen. ~'re fighting to retain manufacturing job$, a fight we often lose.~ need to create jobs of the future, and this is what it's all about."

The startup money for the biotech park' is the largest single allotment for Cleveland in Taft's capital budget plan. "This is one of the most exciting initiatives we've ever seen," said Mike Wise, Tati's district direcror. "We're fighting to retain ma nufacturingjobs, a fight we often lose. We need to create jobs of the future, and this is what it's all about." · Wise said while the three institutions were driving the initiative, others, such as MetroHealth· Medical Center and Cleveland Sfate University, might join.

Gore says relatives should Bush to tour social services work out Gonzalez dispute agency, give poverty speech VANDALIA (AP) - In a bid to win the hearts of a" roomful of undecided voters, Vice President AI Gore shared his views on the custody dispute over a 6-year-old Cuban refugee, a con- · troversial Gore incinerator in eastern Ohio and a host of other issues. About 250 people CfO\Vded into the library at Vandalia-Butler Hign School on Monday night for the two-hour ~own meeting. The vice president appeared relaxed and ac ease with·the audience, which came armed with questions of every sort. Gore said the relatives of 6f year-old Cuban refugee Elian Gonzalez should be aliO\ved to try to work out amongst themselves the escalating custody dispute over the boy. "With tensions as high as they are . and with both sides trying to figure out a way to come to a resolution, I think that we need to encourage the talks between the family members 'themselves," said Gore. "Le> the entire f.1nlily, including the Florida relatives, talk with one another without' people from the U.S. government or the Cuban government or lawyers on either side;' he said. Gore .addressed President Clinton's sex scandal involving Monica Lewinsky when asked what he would do to bring respect to the office of the presidency. Gore said he WC.uld bring his "values of faith and family:• CLEVELAND (AP) -Texas Gov. George W. Bush will continue courting Hispanic voters with a visit Tuesday to a social services agency that caters to the group. ' The pl,'esumptive Republican Bush presidential nominee also will give a speech that focuses on helping those on the outskirts of poverty move into the middle class , his campaign said Monday. Bush will tour El Barrio, a 10-year-old agency that provides a variety of services for the needy, including job trainj ng, GED classes and summer camp for Y?,U.J!gsters. A large portion of the agency's clients are Hispanics , said Chris Larson , the agency's chief op erating officer. Larson said he was not surprised by Bush's decision to vi sit the center because the governor has been reaching out to Hispanics during his presidential campaign . " "The Hispani c vote is going to be very key in the election," Larson said. "It 's going to be a very smart move to go after the Hispanic vote." Bush wi-ll then speak to about 250 community and church leaders at the West Side Jlcumenical Ministry. The faith-based organization reaches out to more than 50,000 people through several churches, said Elving Otero, the agency's president. USEC must shut do~ · oJie :~ its plants PADUCAH, Ky.

There is no reason to be secretive about it. I urge you to appear openly with your gentleman friend. If you have not introduced him to your children, it's time you did. I assume you pl:ln to marry, so the BY C!wuNE tloEJ:ucH SENT1Na NEWS STAFF KONDRACKE'S VIEW: Health care plan ~ictim of Bush tax cut At last, Texas Gov. George W. Bush, R, is getting ready to unveil a health plan for the uninsured - which Democrats surely will attack as the latest victitn of his outsized rax cut. Written as much by his economic pqlicy team as by his health advisers, Bush's plan Will .offer "bare bones" coverage to the uninsured that is less than one-fourth as generous the average U.S. worker's health insurance. Bush is planning to propose a $500 tax credit for individuals and $1,000 for families to cover health insurance, at a·cos.t of about $3.5 billion a year. Vice President AI Gore's plan costs about $15 billion. · In an interview just befbre the New Hampshire .primary, Bush told me he favored doubling the budget for the National Institutes of Health, but Bush campaign officials now say the p~a~ - which ~quires new spending of $2 ~7 billion a year- 1s regarded by Bush econonuc . . . advisers as a "budget buster." One top Bush a1de satd boosts m med1cal research "aren't in this speech, but we're them" and they may be part of a more "visi~ary" speech on technology that's planned later. The health speech ,vilJ be part of a series Bush is delivering on education, the environment, Medicare and Social Security - all designed to show the Texan is "compassionate" and can compete on Democratic turf. Bush has had some succ955 on ed'lcation, where many polls show him running even with Gore despite the fact Bush's proposals will only cost about a quarter of what Gore proposes. As the health example shows, Bush's proposals are subject to attack by Gore as being starved by Bush's "risky $2 trillion tax scheme:' The Bush campaign charges Gore is exaggerating the size of the taX cut, which Bush says is worth $1 trillion over 10 years, but even that Morton Kondracke as NEA CO,LUMNIST sum would use up the ·anticipated non.:Social Security surplus, leaving little fOt'new spending. In a sense, Bush is being courageous in sticking with a big taX cut that's not wildly popular _ and is being fiscally' responsible in h;jlding down spending proposals to allow tor the cut. "They aren't just campaigning, they are already governing," one part-time issues adviser said of Bush's economic policy team, heaqed by forme~ Federal Reserve Governor Larry'·Lindsay, Stanford Professor John Cogan and George Mason University economist Tim.Muris. On the oiher hand, the taX cut's size .a nd its impact on other policies offer Gore a tarjl;et. Gore charges Bush's "tax scheme" will use up the non-Social Security surplus, allow no improvements in Medicare and education, and require "raiding" the Social Security surplus. The Coqgressional· Budget Office •estimates that, assuming the economy stays strong and Congress holds down spending, the non-Social Security surplus will be around $2 .tril,lion. . However, the CBO estimates thkt if the · econm;ny stays strong and Congress does NOT hold down spending, then that surplus will be only $838 billion - more than th.e amount Bush says he'll give b~ to taXpayers. fw \ Bush claims he will restrain spending enough to allow for significant increases in defense and education, but he does not specify where the savings will come. Gore is offering a smaller tax cut- $250 billion- and is able to offer $115 billion in new education spending, $146 billion for expa nded health insurance and $200 billion for a new Medicare prescription drug benefit. Bush is up to $18 billion in new spending for education. His drug benefit is expected to cover only lower-income seniors, and his new health plan will be worth only $35 b~lion. ' The Bush health plan will offer a taX credit half as generous as -that put forward by a biparc tisan Congressional group including Sens. John Breaux, D-La., Bill Frist,. R -Tenn., Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., Jim Jeffords, R.-Vt.', ·House • Majority Leader Dick Armey, R- Texas, and Rep. Cal Dooley, D-Cahf. Tha't plan's sponsors say it will cost $7.1 billion a year and cover about 9 million of the nation's 44 nrillion uninsured persons with a benefit about 30 percent as generous as that offered liy most employers. One Democratic health expert, David Kendall of the Progressive 1\ >licy Institute, estimates that Bush's plan would allow the uninsured to buy a policy allowing strictly limited numbers of doctor visits at a low, preset fee, and hospital coverage with a high deductible. On the resean:h front, Bush is postponing a 'commitment to continue the Republican Congress' progress toward doubling,the NIH's budget. Some Bush advisers fear he will abandon it. That would be a sure sign that Bush puts tax cuts before compassion, and Democrats will rightly clobber him for it. (Morton Kondracke is executive editor of Roll Call, the .newspaper ofCapitot'Hill.) OUR READERS' "{I:J?WS: ·. Getting involved· Dear Editor: I believe the students, teachers: parents and community members within the Meigs Local School District are entering into 11 wonderfully exciting and yet uncertain era. We have been given the opportunity to build three new school~ for the young people in O!lr district and make large-scale improvements to the exjsting high school. At the same time opportunity knocks, we are having to take a step back and look hard at the existing ·problems within our schools today. The Year 2000 School District Report Card ;md the recently ·reviewed parent surveys show the things on the minds of most of us are: the academic standards the state is requiring us to meet; the lower graduation rates and attendance problems; the lack of participation in the school's ,parent groups; and the safety of the children and their property while they are at school. We are nearing the end of the 1999/2000 school year, :u:!d I really believe aU the ~le­ mentary Jchools need to elect strong, hardworking individuals as 'rheir PTO of6cer5, thq need to start traditional PTOs at the junior high and high schools, ani:! parents need to make the time to get invblved. There are 6,048 hours in a typical school year evetybody can spare just one. Besides, I have fun when I volunteer at HarrisonviUe Elementary and at Meigs High School. I know it makes a difference in my kids' mind about schooL As we begin.dealing ·with the state of acad- ernie emergency we are, in and start the transition of moving to new schools, we need to all come together for the kids. I have been . involved with the Continuous Improvement Planning Committee since it began at the end of February. Let me tell you, the~:e is a lot of work to do. I have put my faith in the fact Bill Buckley and the building planners will lead us in the right direction toward new school buildings and Wendy Halar will lead lis toward getting ·. our schools back in proper working prder.

As a family, we tried to come to grips with a death that made no sense, and the feeling of loss that goes with a family member leaving you so unexpectedly. While we tried to grieve and come together as a family, on M arch 31, your paper wrote an article that was full of a number of inaccuracies regarding the circumstances surrounding our father:s death. While we have coine to expect inaccurate reporting from your publica~ion , we ca nnot recall another ocassion when your paper has chosen to· report the details from an event ' such as this. In this counry, we have automobile a~ci­ dents that involve injury, and you do not detail what the injuries included. You list births and deaths, but never with a playcby- play account of the event. We also have homes broken into, assaults and even rapes reported locally 'by your paper, all of which are glazed over. without so . much as the first detail.

Did you not stop to think for a minute how this .would affect those Dad .)eft behind?

For all those wh.o know our Dad; and for those of you who · never had that privilege, please know Dad was not found in his home the way this paper reported it.

According to Connie Cotterill, R.N., executive director of the Meigs Counry Tuberculosis and Health Clinic, there were 13 residents in Meigs County found to have a positive reaction to the tuber· ' " culosis skin test. Eleven of those received preventive medical ther:apy and two received a multi-drug treatment through the local clinic. Cotterill The U.S. is not inunune to the global · tube=)osis epidemic, said Cotterill, who spoke of the threat posed through exposure during world tr:avel and immigration. She said tuberculosis could easily become a worldwide threat With of national significance to this country. Cotterill noted that the U.S. gov.:rnment is actively involved in international ell'ons to treat and curb the spread of disea•c. Research into new diagnostic tools, drugs and vaccines is being accelerated, she reported, Prompt diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis is the • role of the Meigs Clinic, said Cotterill, who credited the local TB levy in e.lfect since 1952 with being the primary funding souoce for the preventive program.

Dear .1\nn Landers: I .am not sure how to help my 42-year-old son who is addicted• to drugs. "Steve.. has always made a good living as a graphic designer, and is a sweet and intelligent person. He admitted to me that he got started on drugs as a teenager, smoking pot. Since then, he has tried every street drug imaginable. Now, I'm sure he is on speed. He displays all the signs, judging from what I have read about people who use this drug. Steve always believed he was so smart he could beat any addiction. His professional life is flourishing, but his personal . life is a mess - unpaid bills, parking violations - and he has a younger, spacedout girlfriend who doesn't help the situation. People tell me that the decision to go into rehab must be up to him, but I .. think an intervention may be wh~t he ne.eds. I have read about famous people who refused to go into rehab, but did so when the fanuly did an intervention . I can't just sit back and watch my son kill himself, because I krtow that will be the outcome if he continues this way. -1\ MOTHER, NO · CITY, STI\TE OF ANXIETY DEAR MOTHER: You are right on! Interventions have proven to be extremely effective. Your phone book should list intervention groups, or you can contact a nearby hospital or drug rehabilitation center for assistance. 1\lthough your son may seem certain that he can control his addiction, the facts do not bear this out. I urge you to ask your son's friends and all family members to participate in the interven. tion. When he sees how many people truly care about him, it will strengthen his resolve I)Ot to disappoint them.

A nother spring has arrived and with it, another season for agricultural production.A:merica's role as the major food producer for the world remains undisputed. But . factors ranging from drought to high operationpl costs have driven a number of people out of the business. That goes beyond being a shame. It's tragic, really. Just as small business is considered the backbone of the nation, farming is an integraT part of our economic makeup. • The departure of so many from the busine.ss is a siruation that needs to be addressed - and now. In the tri-county area, the .concept of the family farm remains strong. But the economic strain has made itself felt and convinced some that getting out is better than staying in. . As an individual decision, that's fine. However, if nothing is done to reverse this trend, we may lose one of our region's distinctive features . , And on a larger scale, we have to ask ourselves: Are we · comfortable with most of our food being grown by only a few? ,. We're not talking about a few independent farmers controlling the J;llarket. We are seeing the rise of corporate farming, the so-called' megafarms. . There's nothing wrong with it. It's an example of the free enterprise system at work. But consolidation of small busi-nesses into bigger and bigger operations runs against the spir'it of the independent businessman. And that's ·one of the things that has made the U.S. economy great. If for no other reason, we should encourage and 'support the efforts of local farmers as they keep that spirit alive, despite the odds. - We find that movement manifested in efforts to find new markets, use of tobacco company settlements to help farmers ·absorb revenue loss', and innovative methods of controlling ·costs and.increasing production. · It d6monstrates to us there is a commitment to· keep farming an important part of the local and naj;ional economy. And that's how it should be. Because without the family farm and what it brings to us in our daily 'e xistence, another question arises: Where would be without them? The answer: not too good. - Page AS Recently divorced reader wants ·love back in her life J 1tMER-IL=AI!OO ti~~-~-~ Lnt•n tv th• •ditur an rvrkm,.•. Tlt•1 dould IH l•u th41n 300 •·onb. A.

Bush, R, is getting ready to unveil a health plan for the uninsured - which Democrats surely will attack as the latest victitn of his outsized rax cut. Written as much by his economic pqlicy team as by his health advisers, Bush's plan Will .offer "bare bones" coverage to the uninsured that is less than one-fourth as generous the average U.S. worker's health insurance. Bush is planning to propose a $500 tax credit for individuals and $1,000 for families to cover health insurance, at a·cos.t of about $3.5 billion a year. Vice President AI Gore's plan costs about $15 billion. · In an interview just befbre the New Hampshire .primary, Bush told me he favored doubling the budget for the National Institutes of Health, but Bush campaign officials now say the p~a~ - which ~quires new spending of $2 ~7 billion a year- 1s regarded by Bush econonuc . . . advisers as a "budget buster." One top Bush a1de satd boosts m med1cal research "aren't in this speech, but we're them" and they may be part of a more "visi~ary" speech on technology that's planned later. The health speech ,vilJ be part of a series Bush is delivering on education, the environment, Medicare and Social Security - all designed to show the Texan is "compassionate" and can compete on Democratic turf. Bush has had some succ955 on ed'lcation, where many polls show him running even with Gore despite the fact Bush's proposals will only cost about a quarter of what Gore proposes. As the health example shows, Bush's proposals are subject to attack by Gore as being starved by Bush's "risky $2 trillion tax scheme:' The Bush campaign charges Gore is exaggerating the size of the taX cut, which Bush says is worth $1 trillion over 10 years, but even that Morton Kondracke as NEA CO,LUMNIST sum would use up the ·anticipated non.:Social Security surplus, leaving little fOt'new spending. In a sense, Bush is being courageous in sticking with a big taX cut that's not wildly popular _ and is being fiscally' responsible in h;jlding down spending proposals to allow tor the cut. "They aren't just campaigning, they are already governing," one part-time issues adviser said of Bush's economic policy team, heaqed by forme~ Federal Reserve Governor Larry'·Lindsay, Stanford Professor John Cogan and George Mason University economist Tim.Muris. On the oiher hand, the taX cut's size .a nd its impact on other policies offer Gore a tarjl;et. Gore charges Bush's "tax scheme" will use up the non-Social Security surplus, allow no improvements in Medicare and education, and require "raiding" the Social Security surplus. The Coqgressional· Budget Office •estimates that, assuming the economy stays strong and Congress holds down spending, the non-Social Security surplus will be around $2 .tril,lion. . However, the CBO estimates thkt if the · econm;ny stays strong and Congress does NOT hold down spending, then that surplus will be only $838 billion - more than th.e amount Bush says he'll give b~ to taXpayers. fw \ Bush claims he will restrain spending enough to allow for significant increases in defense and education, but he does not specify where the savings will come. Gore is offering a smaller tax cut- $250 billion- and is able to offer $115 billion in new education spending, $146 billion for expa nded health insurance and $200 billion for a new Medicare prescription drug benefit. Bush is up to $18 billion in new spending for education. His drug benefit is expected to cover only lower-income seniors, and his new health plan will be worth only $35 b~lion. ' The Bush health plan will offer a taX credit half as generous as -that put forward by a biparc tisan Congressional group including Sens. John Breaux, D-La., Bill Frist,. R -Tenn., Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., Jim Jeffords, R.-Vt.', ·House • Majority Leader Dick Armey, R- Texas, and Rep. Cal Dooley, D-Cahf. Tha't plan's sponsors say it will cost $7.1 billion a year and cover about 9 million of the nation's 44 nrillion uninsured persons with a benefit about 30 percent as generous as that offered liy most employers. One Democratic health expert, David Kendall of the Progressive 1\ >licy Institute, estimates that Bush's plan would allow the uninsured to buy a policy allowing strictly limited numbers of doctor visits at a low, preset fee, and hospital coverage with a high deductible. On the resean:h front, Bush is postponing a 'commitment to continue the Republican Congress' progress toward doubling,the NIH's budget. Some Bush advisers fear he will abandon it. That would be a sure sign that Bush puts tax cuts before compassion, and Democrats will rightly clobber him for it. (Morton Kondracke is executive editor of Roll Call, the .newspaper ofCapitot'Hill.) OUR READERS' "{I:J?WS: ·. Getting involved· Dear Editor: I believe the students, teachers: parents and community members within the Meigs Local School District are entering into 11 wonderfully exciting and yet uncertain era. We have been given the opportunity to build three new school~ for the young people in O!lr district and make large-scale improvements to the exjsting high school. At the same time opportunity knocks, we are having to take a step back and look hard at the existing ·problems within our schools today. The Year 2000 School District Report Card ;md the recently ·reviewed parent surveys show the things on the minds of most of us are: the academic standards the state is requiring us to meet; the lower graduation rates and attendance problems; the lack of participation in the school's ,parent groups; and the safety of the children and their property while they are at school. We are nearing the end of the 1999/2000 school year, :u:!d I really believe aU the ~le­ mentary Jchools need to elect strong, hardworking individuals as 'rheir PTO of6cer5, thq need to start traditional PTOs at the junior high and high schools, ani:! parents need to make the time to get invblved. There are 6,048 hours in a typical school year evetybody can spare just one. Besides, I have fun when I volunteer at HarrisonviUe Elementary and at Meigs High School.

According to Connie Cotterill, R.N., executive director of the Meigs Counry Tuberculosis and Health Clinic, there were 13 residents in Meigs County found to have a positive reaction to the tuber· ' " culosis skin test. Eleven of those received preventive medical ther:apy and two received a multi-drug treatment through the local clinic.

Dear .1\nn Landers: I .am not sure how to help my 42-year-old son who is addicted• to drugs. "Steve.. has always made a good living as a graphic designer, and is a sweet and intelligent person. He admitted to me that he got started on drugs as a teenager, smoking pot. Since then, he has tried every street drug imaginable. Now, I'm sure he is on speed. He displays all the signs, judging from what I have read about people who use this drug. Steve always believed he was so smart he could beat any addiction. His professional life is flourishing, but his personal . life is a mess - unpaid bills, parking violations - and he has a younger, spacedout girlfriend who doesn't help the situation. People tell me that the decision to go into rehab must be up to him, but I .. think an intervention may be wh~t he ne.eds. I have read about famous people who refused to go into rehab, but did so when the fanuly did an intervention . I can't just sit back and watch my son kill himself, because I krtow that will be the outcome if he continues this way. -1\ MOTHER, NO · CITY, STI\TE OF ANXIETY DEAR MOTHER: You are right on! Interventions have proven to be extremely effective. Your phone book should list intervention groups, or you can contact a nearby hospital or drug rehabilitation center for assistance. 1\lthough your son may seem certain that he can control his addiction, the facts do not bear this out. I urge you to ask your son's friends and all family members to participate in the interven. tion. When he sees how many people truly care about him, it will strengthen his resolve I)Ot to disappoint them.

A nother spring has arrived and with it, another season for agricultural production.A:merica's role as the major food producer for the world remains undisputed. But . factors ranging from drought to high operationpl costs have driven a number of people out of the business. That goes beyond being a shame. It's tragic, really. Just as small business is considered the backbone of the nation, farming is an integraT part of our economic makeup. • The departure of so many from the busine.ss is a siruation that needs to be addressed - and now. In the tri-county area, the .concept of the family farm remains strong. But the economic strain has made itself felt and convinced some that getting out is better than staying in. . As an individual decision, that's fine. However, if nothing is done to reverse this trend, we may lose one of our region's distinctive features . , And on a larger scale, we have to ask ourselves: Are we · comfortable with most of our food being grown by only a few? ,. We're not talking about a few independent farmers controlling the J;llarket. We are seeing the rise of corporate farming, the so-called' megafarms. . There's nothing wrong with it. It's an example of the free enterprise system at work. But consolidation of small busi-nesses into bigger and bigger operations runs against the spir'it of the independent businessman. And that's ·one of the things that has made the U.S. economy great. If for no other reason, we should encourage and 'support the efforts of local farmers as they keep that spirit alive, despite the odds. - We find that movement manifested in efforts to find new markets, use of tobacco company settlements to help farmers ·absorb revenue loss', and innovative methods of controlling ·costs and.increasing production. · It d6monstrates to us there is a commitment to· keep farming an important part of the local and naj;ional economy. And that's how it should be. Because without the family farm and what it brings to us in our daily 'e xistence, another question arises: Where would be without them? The answer: not too good. - Page AS Recently divorced reader wants ·love back in her life J 1tMER-IL=AI!OO ti~~-~-~ Lnt•n tv th• •ditur an rvrkm,.•. Tlt•1 dould IH l•u th41n 300 •·onb. A.

(AP) - A teacher .who had been receiving threatening notes for several weeks was shot and wounded this morning in her classroom at a Tucson-area· mid<!le school. School and sheriff's officials said the injury was not considered life-threatening, but did not elabo'rate. Television station KVOA reported the teacher, J<athy Morris, had been shot in the shoulder. Morris, a sixth-grade teacher at La Cima Middle School, was list- · ed in guarded condition at University Medicai Center. Sheriff's spokeswoman Deputy Deanna Coultas said the teacher had been preparing for a staff meeting when she excused herself and returned to her classroom. Morris reported the shootiQg herself. Coultas said she had been receiving threatening notes but had no details. ' The Sheriff's Department was looking for a man thought to be around 19 years old with a shaved head, Coultas said. They were also investi gating the possibility that the teacher knew the gunman, she said.

Dick Trocy Eul BY PHILLIP ALDER How may three people keep a secret, according to Benjamin Franklin? It is stninge how things go in twos or threes. No sooner had I read about yesterday's deal than George Rosenkranz, Mexico' s best player, was on the telephone telling me about !his layout. How should the play go in six hearts? What do you think of the auction? North's three clubs was fourth· suit fo~ing, showing game values and asking the opener for more information. At this point, perhaps South should have jumped to four spades to describe his 3-S-4· I shape with above-minimum strength. Then, North would prob· ably settle for six spades, a con· tract that must make with this distribution of the cards. However, when South settled for three spades, it gave North the chance to show his threc:-card heart sup· port. Then, South wanted to be the declarer! West, Miguel Reygadas, led the diamond I 0. Rosenkranz won the ace and returned a diamond. Now declarer cashed the heart ace. Smoothly, Rosenkranz played the queen. (Note that if he · had dropped·the 10, South would have had no choice but to contin· ue with the heart king, with 'gratifying results for him.) Now, though, South had an unenviable ' guess. And nol surprisingly, he continued with a heart to dummy's eight. Happily, Rosenkranz produced the I0 to defeat the slam. This play isn't difficult for an expert, but a less accomplished player wouldn't think of it·· untH now. Benjamin Franklin claimed, "Three may keep a secret, if tw,o of them are dead."

Dick Trocy Eul BY PHILLIP ALDER How may three people keep a secret, according to Benjamin Franklin? It is stninge how things go in twos or threes. No sooner had I read about yesterday's deal than George Rosenkranz, Mexico' s best player, was on the telephone telling me about !his layout. How should the play go in six hearts? What do you think of the auction? North's three clubs was fourth· suit fo~ing, showing game values and asking the opener for more information. At this point, perhaps South should have jumped to four spades to describe his 3-S-4· I shape with above-minimum strength. Then, North would prob· ably settle for six spades, a con· tract that must make with this distribution of the cards. However, when South settled for three spades, it gave North the chance to show his threc:-card heart sup· port. Then, South wanted to be the declarer! West, Miguel Reygadas, led the diamond I 0. Rosenkranz won the ace and returned a diamond. Now declarer cashed the heart ace. Smoothly, Rosenkranz played the queen. (Note that if he · had dropped·the 10, South would have had no choice but to contin· ue with the heart king, with 'gratifying results for him.) Now, though, South had an unenviable ' guess. And nol surprisingly, he continued with a heart to dummy's eight. Happily, Rosenkranz produced the I0 to defeat the slam. This play isn't difficult for an expert, but a less accomplished player wouldn't think of it·· untH now. Benjamin Franklin claimed, "Three may keep a secret, if tw,o of them are dead."
