Getting. old' W:lter and sewer pipes out of the" ground before .they collapse could cost communities across the United States S1 trillion over the ' next 2b years. Lobbyists have begun trying to interest Congress in footing the bill. "There are , many, many pipes in the country that have been in the ground 100 yean," said Steve Allbee, an Environmental Protection Agency officia! in charge of analyzing the gap between future infrastructure needs and current spending. In community after community, he said, digging up old pipes has been a lower priority than accommodating new development and upgrading plants to keep up with federal standards. "We're deferring expenditures thai we should be making, and that's been going on for about 10 years;' he said. . Meanwhile, tiine takes its toll.

Road supervisors go back to work C INC INNATI (AP) - 1\vo city transportation supervisors blamed for not catching seven years of false road-repair reports will return to work after five months' paid leave and a written reprimand. City manager John Shirey said that Prem Garg and Brian Picke,ring were to return to work Monday. Auditors blamed a former city engineer, who was never li censed in Ohio, for diverting $15 million from road- repair budgets to other projects. The result is that 60 percent of C incinnati's roads are in poor co ndition. An internal aurlit showed that, between 1991 and 1997, city engineers reported that $65 million was used to fix 818 lane-miles of roads. But that only 460 lane-miles had really been completed at a cost of about $50.5 million. The engineer left his job in 1998 and Pickerington and Garg, along with another supervisor, were reprimanded for lack of oversight. The third supervisor wasn't mentioned in Shirey's memo an!'ouncing the pair's return to work. Nor rlid the two-paragraph memo give details on the investigations. Lawyer faces license suspension · COLUMBUS (AP) - An attorney faces disciplinary action for not telling several hundred clients that their lawsuit stenuning from an explosion at a plant had been dismissed and could not be refiled. Louis Bernard LaCour of Columbus agreed to file a lawsuit in 1·984 after an explosion at the Georgia-Pacific plant worried residents who feared their neighborhood was being polluted. LaCour received $48,683 through the years from residents. LaCour admitted during an attorney disciplinary hearing Friday that it was his fault the lawsuit had been rlismissed and could not be refiled because he repeateclly missed court deadlines. "We all know basic obligations we owe our clients and I'm very sorry for inactions I may have committed that has brought grief to this community," LaCour said. Ohio Disciplinary Counsel Jonathan E. Coughlan recommended to a three-member panel that LaCour, 73, be suspended from practicing law for a year. The panel of two lawyers and a judge rlid not inrlicate whether it would agree with the sugge·stion or when it would issue its own recommendation. The Ohio Supreme Court will make the final decision. LaCour told the panel that he was broke and might be forced to file for bankruptcy because of some bad investments, but he ag~eed to pay back $20,000 to residents when he was able.

SHAKER HEIGHTS (AP) Watching the grass grow in this posh Cleveland suburb isn't just a pastime - it's a job. City employees are dispatched with tape measures and digital cameras in hand to find homeowners who violate the city orrlinance against lawns that grow more than 6 inches high. "If you get a whole block that's nice and one that's 8 inches high, that's blight;' Public Works Director William Alexander told The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer for a recent story. "We need to demonstrate that we consider this a real serious problem in the community." The city already has sent out 125 warning letters to homeowners whose lawns have grown over the limit. · Those who don't comply are fined $100 and must stand by while city mowers do the job for them. Pat Neville has been measuring lawns since he joined the public works department four years ago. " Now I can tell ," he said. "I've seen enough where I don't have to measure anymore." Many cities have ordinances against · seriously overg own lawns, but few are as hard core about enforcement as Shaker Heights, which cites aesthetic and health reasons for the law. Officials said rodents can nest in grass that is longer than 6 inches, and that houses must be well kcmpt to p!Qtect property values.

Laws do little to curb drinking BOSTON (AP) -A high percentage of college binge drinkers are white males under the legal drinking age of21 who find cheap or free alcohol at fraternity parties or local bars, accorrling to a new study by the Harvard School of Public Health. "Students today come · to college expecting to drink," said Henry Wechsler, director of Harvard's College Alcohol Sturlies Program. "They think that's what you're supposed to do in college, and they find plenty of ways to do it." Researchers found that underage students either have older friends buy for them or frequent local bars and on-ca mpus parties where they can buy beers for as little as $1 each. "There's always someone who wiU buy for you," said Craig Lareau, 18, ofWestborough, who graduated from high scho~l this year and will enter college 111 the fall." And there are bars I can go to that would let me." The srudy, relca,ed today, found students wh<> are over 21 tend to drink more often, but underage . drinkers are more likely to binge. Pipes from PapAl "Everybody has a stake in this," said Allbee. ''Rebuilding these systems is going to be more difficult than building the system in the first place." Allbee points to Ohio as typical and a stare where local water and sewer expe nrlitures are well-documented. In Ohio, he estimates, water and sewer fees will increase from an average of $568 per household in 1997 to $793 in 2009 and nearly $1 ,000 by 10 years after that. Nationally, he expects similar in creases, with the inflationadjusted cost of water rising 2.3 percent per year and the cost of sewer service rising 2. 9 percent per year. Local water authorities have to budget for pipe replacement, as well as complying with new regulations covering radon, arsenic, radionuclides and microbes. "The federal government has devoted a lot of time and effoft developing safe water regulations and higher and higher standards for the quality of water coming out of our treatment plants. Then you're taking that high-qualiry water and it's going . into pipes that are internally corroded or in disrepair," said Julius Ciaccia, Cleveland water commissioner. Cleveland has raised water rates every year since 1991,8.5 percent a year through 1995, then 7 percent from 1996 thru 2000. Another rate increase, 6 percent a year for the next five years, is under consideration. If customers alone foot the bill for all needed replacement of aging plants, water and wastewater pipes nationwide, their bills would increase an average of 6 percent every year for the next 20 years. That won't be an easy sell. "With the debate locaUy on how much do you . spend on police protection, schools and so on, the local dollars are st~etched pretty thin;• said William Schatz, general counsel of the Northeast Apolon fiitm PlpJi• Ohio Regional Sewer District. He has been part of a drive to get Congress to create a program to pay for water and sewer replacements. "We need to get more money now and start spenrling it now;' he said. Allbee found that Ohio water and sewer fees are consuming growing portions of the average family. budget. Except for families at the highest end of the salary scale, inflation-adjusted incomes remained largely flat from 197997 ' while water an d sewer fees increased 50 percent. "The sustainability of the system is at risk," he said. "I'm prerlicting that affordability is going to be a big issue.'' Lobbying under the name Water Infrastru cture Network, sewer and water authorities from· across the country, contractors, the U.S. Conference of Mayors and others are asking Congress for funding fat greater than the $825 million now distributed to state loan funds. " We're looking at what we need to do to educate Congress," said Ken Klink, executive director of the Association of Metropolitan Sewerage Agencies. Rep. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, is a member of the new Infrastructure Caucus who deals with w,~ter issues as part of his committee work. He said it will take a lot more work to get Congress to focus on a problem that is out of sight - buried underground and out of mind. Big rlisruptions like the Cleveland water main break .steer attention to the issue, but there's a reluctance to advocate huge new spending programs, he said. "Spending that kind of money doesn't get politicians elected:' ""id Brown. "It doesn't get voters excited." Diane VanDe Hei, executive rlirector of the Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies, frames the issue in business terms , "I don't kllllw if you think of America's water and wastewater system as na tiona! assets but they are;' she said.

Road supervisors go back to work C INC INNATI (AP) - 1\vo city transportation supervisors blamed for not catching seven years of false road-repair reports will return to work after five months' paid leave and a written reprimand. City manager John Shirey said that Prem Garg and Brian Picke,ring were to return to work Monday. Auditors blamed a former city engineer, who was never li censed in Ohio, for diverting $15 million from road- repair budgets to other projects. The result is that 60 percent of C incinnati's roads are in poor co ndition. An internal aurlit showed that, between 1991 and 1997, city engineers reported that $65 million was used to fix 818 lane-miles of roads. But that only 460 lane-miles had really been completed at a cost of about $50.5 million. The engineer left his job in 1998 and Pickerington and Garg, along with another supervisor, were reprimanded for lack of oversight. The third supervisor wasn't mentioned in Shirey's memo an!'ouncing the pair's return to work. Nor rlid the two-paragraph memo give details on the investigations. Lawyer faces license suspension · COLUMBUS (AP) - An attorney faces disciplinary action for not telling several hundred clients that their lawsuit stenuning from an explosion at a plant had been dismissed and could not be refiled. Louis Bernard LaCour of Columbus agreed to file a lawsuit in 1·984 after an explosion at the Georgia-Pacific plant worried residents who feared their neighborhood was being polluted. LaCour received $48,683 through the years from residents. LaCour admitted during an attorney disciplinary hearing Friday that it was his fault the lawsuit had been rlismissed and could not be refiled because he repeateclly missed court deadlines. "We all know basic obligations we owe our clients and I'm very sorry for inactions I may have committed that has brought grief to this community," LaCour said. Ohio Disciplinary Counsel Jonathan E. Coughlan recommended to a three-member panel that LaCour, 73, be suspended from practicing law for a year. The panel of two lawyers and a judge rlid not inrlicate whether it would agree with the sugge·stion or when it would issue its own recommendation. The Ohio Supreme Court will make the final decision.

SHAKER HEIGHTS (AP) Watching the grass grow in this posh Cleveland suburb isn't just a pastime - it's a job. City employees are dispatched with tape measures and digital cameras in hand to find homeowners who violate the city orrlinance against lawns that grow more than 6 inches high. "If you get a whole block that's nice and one that's 8 inches high, that's blight;' Public Works Director William Alexander told The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer for a recent story. "We need to demonstrate that we consider this a real serious problem in the community." The city already has sent out 125 warning letters to homeowners whose lawns have grown over the limit. · Those who don't comply are fined $100 and must stand by while city mowers do the job for them. Pat Neville has been measuring lawns since he joined the public works department four years ago. " Now I can tell ," he said. "I've seen enough where I don't have to measure anymore." Many cities have ordinances against · seriously overg own lawns, but few are as hard core about enforcement as Shaker Heights, which cites aesthetic and health reasons for the law.

Laws do little to curb drinking BOSTON (AP) -A high percentage of college binge drinkers are white males under the legal drinking age of21 who find cheap or free alcohol at fraternity parties or local bars, accorrling to a new study by the Harvard School of Public Health. "Students today come · to college expecting to drink," said Henry Wechsler, director of Harvard's College Alcohol Sturlies Program. "They think that's what you're supposed to do in college, and they find plenty of ways to do it." Researchers found that underage students either have older friends buy for them or frequent local bars and on-ca mpus parties where they can buy beers for as little as $1 each. "There's always someone who wiU buy for you," said Craig Lareau, 18, ofWestborough, who graduated from high scho~l this year and will enter college 111 the fall." And there are bars I can go to that would let me." The srudy, relca,ed today, found students wh<> are over 21 tend to drink more often, but underage . drinkers are more likely to binge. Pipes from PapAl "Everybody has a stake in this," said Allbee. ''Rebuilding these systems is going to be more difficult than building the system in the first place." Allbee points to Ohio as typical and a stare where local water and sewer expe nrlitures are well-documented. In Ohio, he estimates, water and sewer fees will increase from an average of $568 per household in 1997 to $793 in 2009 and nearly $1 ,000 by 10 years after that. Nationally, he expects similar in creases, with the inflationadjusted cost of water rising 2.3 percent per year and the cost of sewer service rising 2. 9 percent per year. Local water authorities have to budget for pipe replacement, as well as complying with new regulations covering radon, arsenic, radionuclides and microbes. "The federal government has devoted a lot of time and effoft developing safe water regulations and higher and higher standards for the quality of water coming out of our treatment plants. Then you're taking that high-qualiry water and it's going . into pipes that are internally corroded or in disrepair," said Julius Ciaccia, Cleveland water commissioner. Cleveland has raised water rates every year since 1991,8.5 percent a year through 1995, then 7 percent from 1996 thru 2000. Another rate increase, 6 percent a year for the next five years, is under consideration. If customers alone foot the bill for all needed replacement of aging plants, water and wastewater pipes nationwide, their bills would increase an average of 6 percent every year for the next 20 years. That won't be an easy sell. "With the debate locaUy on how much do you . spend on police protection, schools and so on, the local dollars are st~etched pretty thin;• said William Schatz, general counsel of the Northeast Apolon fiitm PlpJi• Ohio Regional Sewer District. He has been part of a drive to get Congress to create a program to pay for water and sewer replacements. "We need to get more money now and start spenrling it now;' he said. Allbee found that Ohio water and sewer fees are consuming growing portions of the average family. budget. Except for families at the highest end of the salary scale, inflation-adjusted incomes remained largely flat from 197997 ' while water an d sewer fees increased 50 percent. "The sustainability of the system is at risk," he said. "I'm prerlicting that affordability is going to be a big issue.'' Lobbying under the name Water Infrastru cture Network, sewer and water authorities from· across the country, contractors, the U.S. Conference of Mayors and others are asking Congress for funding fat greater than the $825 million now distributed to state loan funds. " We're looking at what we need to do to educate Congress," said Ken Klink, executive director of the Association of Metropolitan Sewerage Agencies. Rep. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, is a member of the new Infrastructure Caucus who deals with w,~ter issues as part of his committee work. He said it will take a lot more work to get Congress to focus on a problem that is out of sight - buried underground and out of mind. Big rlisruptions like the Cleveland water main break .steer attention to the issue, but there's a reluctance to advocate huge new spending programs, he said. "Spending that kind of money doesn't get politicians elected:' ""id Brown. "It doesn't get voters excited." Diane VanDe Hei, executive rlirector of the Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies, frames the issue in business terms , "I don't kllllw if you think of America's water and wastewater system as na tiona! assets but they are;' she said. "Infrastructure is key to attracting investment." "It doun't sfop at apology. It giVC$ ,hqpe that there $hould be $OIIIething after · apolo.qy." Jubilation that broke out Rep.

So it's imperative that President Clinton put pressure o n Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat for concesSions. Israeli Prime M;nister Ehud Barak's willingness to give up land and bargaining chips for peace is partly to blame for defections that could force new elections, so Arafat should make similar moves - and Clinton has to convince him to do. so. Barak has signaled that Israel will accept a Palestinian state as the end-process of negotiation; Israel will give up more than 90 percent of the occupied West Bank, including the strategic Jordan Valley; and Israel will agree to Palestinian management of parts ofJerusalem. So when Arafat comes to visit today, Clinton should tell him that the United States will oppose any unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood this September - . @.nd remind him that the U.S. presidential electio~ ensures that the United States will oppose the move. Second, C linton. should press Arafat to stop insisting on funher interim p~ce steps from Israel- prisoner releases and land turnoversand move to talks on "final status" issues. C linton also should urge Arafat to drop demands for all Palestinian territory occupied by Israel in the 1967 war, full Arab sovereignty over East Jerusalem, and the right of all Palestinian refugees to return to their homeland: The president can use an argument with Arafat that the death of Syrian President Hafez Assad ought to make concessions easier because the Arabs' leading opponent of peace is no longer around to pressure Arafat. As stated by Robert Satloff, director of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, Clinton should say to Arafat, "We're. approaching crunch time in these talks. Israel is in ching up the concession ladder - 85 percent, 90 percent, 92 percent. This is not going to work unless there's some concession from your side, as Morton Kondracke NEA COLUMNIST too.'' And, Sadoff said, Clinton should say, "This has to be the end· of the conflict. We're reaching the end of my administration, sn if you want me to be a part of it, this has to be the final deal.'' · It's n,ot clear whether the administration considers this week's talks to be crucial. One White House official said Arafat and Clinton are men;ly ''touching base" following Clinton 's ineeting earlier this month with Barak in Europe. And this. official said that despite moves to bring down Barak's government, "he's in good shape with his people and has public support for his peace mandate." . On Sunday, though, the administration's chief M;deast negotiator, Dennis Ross, said that Assad's death, Israel's recent withdrawal !tom Lebanon and the beginning of "final status" talks all put the region "at a crossroads... a turning point." "There are moments;• Ross said on ABC's "This Week With. Sam Donaldson and Cokie Roberts;'"and if they aren't seized, they get lost. I suspect that will add to a sense of urgency on everybody's part." The sense of urgency ought to be heightened by the decision Sunday of the religious party, Shas, to pull out of Barak's ruling coalition. Sha:; may be followed by Natan Sharansky's Russian . immigrant party and the N ational Religious j J (Mo rton Kondracke is exemtive editor Party, depriving Barak of a parliamentary Call, the newspaper of Capitol Hill.) stay married.

The move came on the heels of a Point Pleasant Register series on the plight of Point teens, the highlight of their summer•time times lives being "hanging out" for a few hours at "the courts." On the other hand, Point Pleasant Police vowed Friday to crack down on " h anging o ut ," putting an 11 p.m. curfew on teen-agers at the courts. Police say "the courts" are a so urce of myriad problems, ranging from littering and loitering to underage drinking and • • • illicit drug use. • We applaud the police for trying to clean up· Point Pleasant, but they m ay be coming down a bit hard on the youngsters. Folks who live near "the courts" say . that although ·the teens sometimes raise a little ru ckus , the bulk of the trouble doesn't come from ihe teen-agers, but rather from the small mob of 18- to 24-year-olds who also frequent the area .. That being the case, these individuals should bear the brunt :Of the police force's efforts to clean up Point' Pleasant - not ~he teen-agers.

So it's imperative that President Clinton put pressure o n Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat for concesSions. Israeli Prime M;nister Ehud Barak's willingness to give up land and bargaining chips for peace is partly to blame for defections that could force new elections, so Arafat should make similar moves - and Clinton has to convince him to do. so. Barak has signaled that Israel will accept a Palestinian state as the end-process of negotiation; Israel will give up more than 90 percent of the occupied West Bank, including the strategic Jordan Valley; and Israel will agree to Palestinian management of parts ofJerusalem. So when Arafat comes to visit today, Clinton should tell him that the United States will oppose any unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood this September - . @.nd remind him that the U.S. presidential electio~ ensures that the United States will oppose the move. Second, C linton. should press Arafat to stop insisting on funher interim p~ce steps from Israel- prisoner releases and land turnoversand move to talks on "final status" issues. C linton also should urge Arafat to drop demands for all Palestinian territory occupied by Israel in the 1967 war, full Arab sovereignty over East Jerusalem, and the right of all Palestinian refugees to return to their homeland: The president can use an argument with Arafat that the death of Syrian President Hafez Assad ought to make concessions easier because the Arabs' leading opponent of peace is no longer around to pressure Arafat. As stated by Robert Satloff, director of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, Clinton should say to Arafat, "We're. approaching crunch time in these talks. Israel is in ching up the concession ladder - 85 percent, 90 percent, 92 percent. This is not going to work unless there's some concession from your side, as Morton Kondracke NEA COLUMNIST too.'' And, Sadoff said, Clinton should say, "This has to be the end· of the conflict. We're reaching the end of my administration, sn if you want me to be a part of it, this has to be the final deal.'' · It's n,ot clear whether the administration considers this week's talks to be crucial. One White House official said Arafat and Clinton are men;ly ''touching base" following Clinton 's ineeting earlier this month with Barak in Europe. And this. official said that despite moves to bring down Barak's government, "he's in good shape with his people and has public support for his peace mandate." . On Sunday, though, the administration's chief M;deast negotiator, Dennis Ross, said that Assad's death, Israel's recent withdrawal !tom Lebanon and the beginning of "final status" talks all put the region "at a crossroads... a turning point." "There are moments;• Ross said on ABC's "This Week With. Sam Donaldson and Cokie Roberts;'"and if they aren't seized, they get lost. I suspect that will add to a sense of urgency on everybody's part." The sense of urgency ought to be heightened by the decision Sunday of the religious party, Shas, to pull out of Barak's ruling coalition. Sha:; may be followed by Natan Sharansky's Russian . immigrant party and the N ational Religious j J (Mo rton Kondracke is exemtive editor Party, depriving Barak of a parliamentary Call, the newspaper of Capitol Hill.) stay married.

We also have a daughter in college. My children's father has always been a strong, positive influence in their liv~s.

He coached our son's Little League team, and bought season tickets to the symphony for our daughter when she was learning to play the violin.

The move came on the heels of a Point Pleasant Register series on the plight of Point teens, the highlight of their summer•time times lives being "hanging out" for a few hours at "the courts." On the other hand, Point Pleasant Police vowed Friday to crack down on " h anging o ut ," putting an 11 p.m. curfew on teen-agers at the courts. Police say "the courts" are a so urce of myriad problems, ranging from littering and loitering to underage drinking and • • • illicit drug use. • We applaud the police for trying to clean up· Point Pleasant, but they m ay be coming down a bit hard on the youngsters. Folks who live near "the courts" say . that although ·the teens sometimes raise a little ru ckus , the bulk of the trouble doesn't come from ihe teen-agers, but rather from the small mob of 18- to 24-year-olds who also frequent the area .. That being the case, these individuals should bear the brunt :Of the police force's efforts to clean up Point' Pleasant - not ~he teen-agers. We don't see how the curfew is going to cur~ail this problem. · :· We b elieve the police should have sought th e blessing of the ~ity council and/ or the qmnty commission in open session ;before instituting this policy Such a move is akin to institut:ing martial law. : At the very. least, the matter deserves discussion in a public forum that includes both Point Pleasant adults and teens ~efore the curfew is enforced . , On the surface, this new policy looks like a knee-jerk reac tion to an isolated proble.m; a reaction that, in the long run, pould do more h arm than good since it will surely serve to ~xpand the generation gap between Point Pleasant teens and ~dults. :: That's the last thing we want. : We encourage the Point Pleasant Police to revisit this poliliy and hope other tri-county law e nforcem ent agencies take more rational approaches in the future to handling teen angst. ; These kids are just being kids.

BY RICK SAMMON FOR 14' SPECIAL FEA11JRES All the digital camera manufacturers seem to have got involved in a. race to offer ca meras with more and more pixels, or picture elements. I realized this recently walking down New York City's Fifth Avenue. In one discount store window I saw dozens of compact and lightweight digital cameras, all with brightly-colored signs touting the number of pixels. It was mega pixel mania, with many cameras offering two and three million pixels. Most were under $1,000, and some were priced closer to $500. M egapixel (meaning millions of pixels) is the buzz word in the world of dig ital canleras. It is also one of the first things you should look for when conside ring a digital camera . As the numb er of pixels increases, so do price and image q uali ty, in most cases. I say in mOst cases because the camera's lens and recllrding chip also play a role in image quality. But how many pixels do you really need? If you simply want to put pictures on the Web or e-mai l your digital photos to friends, you don't even need a 1megapixel camera. Your pictures Jette,.

BY RICK SAMMON FOR 14' SPECIAL FEA11JRES All the digital camera manufacturers seem to have got involved in a. race to offer ca meras with more and more pixels, or picture elements. I realized this recently walking down New York City's Fifth Avenue. In one discount store window I saw dozens of compact and lightweight digital cameras, all with brightly-colored signs touting the number of pixels. It was mega pixel mania, with many cameras offering two and three million pixels. Most were under $1,000, and some were priced closer to $500. M egapixel (meaning millions of pixels) is the buzz word in the world of dig ital canleras. It is also one of the first things you should look for when conside ring a digital camera . As the numb er of pixels increases, so do price and image q uali ty, in most cases. I say in mOst cases because the camera's lens and recllrding chip also play a role in image quality. But how many pixels do you really need? If you simply want to put pictures on the Web or e-mai l your digital photos to friends, you don't even need a 1megapixel camera. Your pictures Jette,.

(AP) The rain and fog that caused postponement Sunday of the Pocono 500 means Ricky Rudd will have to wait another day to see if he's ready to win for the first time in nearly two years. The race, only the secqnd NASCAR event postponed in 27 years at Pocono International Raceway, was rescheduled for 10 a.m . EDT Monday. In 1979, the race also was run after a one-day postponement. Rudd, who gave up as an owner-driver to move this year to powerful Robert Yates Racing, has good reason to be optimistic. · After suffering through a final season as an owner-- one in which he failed to win for the first time. in 17 years - Rudd sold his equipment and shed the dual role he so often said was too much to deal with. Now, he's in the famed No. 28 Ford of Yates, hoping to ~~:surrect it as well as his career. The car, driven over the years by a slew of Hall of Famers, including Cale Yarborough and Bobby Allison, has become the second car in the Yates garage behind the No. 88 of Winston Cup champion Dale Jarrett. But Rudd is making it look. like he can take the car back to the winner's circle for the fin t · time since Ernie lrvan wen three years ago in Brooklyn, · Mich. Rudd has three top-fiire finishes in the last five races, and stands eighth in points, his bestshowing since a sixth-place finish in 1996. · " It really should been five out of five," said Rudd, who w'ill start inside Jarrett on the secorid row. "There have been a couple of miscues late in the race, fre:d< things happening, but the pe,r~ formance has been there." · Only Jarrett and Winston CI!P . points leader Bobby Labonte - · . each with four top fives in that· span - have been more consistent. · Rusty Wallace, who set a rracli . qualifying record with a run'" Friday at 171.625 mph, sits on the pole for the race. �Page 82 • The Dally Sentinel Pomeroy Middleport, Ohio Pomeroy Middleport Ohio Apartment• for Rent 540 Mlacellaneoua Merchandlae The Dally Sentinel • Page 83 Don't 9et cautJht in a Web 11 M081LE HOME OWNERS Huge n tnto y 0 scoun fl cas On V ny Sk ng Ooo 1 W nd 11 ••• owa Ancho a Wa e Hta e a P umb ng & E tc ca Pa s Fu nacas & Hta Pumpt Benne s 480 Space for Rent ANNOUNCEMENTS 005 DOWNTOWN BUSINESS S-E OR OFFICE Nuro 1111 Aaolotont Troln lllJ CIIU (FIMIO lh4l public Personal a Mob • Home Supp y 740 446 9<t 6Www orvb.COITVbennett f.o Lea..
