On \\\111 Street, the strong economic data pushed interest rates higher and stock prices dropped. By late .morning, the Dow Jones average of industrial slrlcks had fallen 56 points to 9,255. . The income figures, particularly December's, were influenced by 'a number of special factors. These inducted a decline in farm subsidy payments. in December following one-time payments in Noveh1ber and cost-of-living increases in. January for Social Security recipients and federal employees.. Excluding the special factors, incomes grew · solidly in both months: 0.3 percent in December and 0.5 peJ'f"'nt in January. That suggests that· any slowdown from the startling Oc\Qber-December cconomic growth rate of 6.1 percent won't be too precipitous.

Guest column At least give us a shot at the donuts! By State Senator Michael c. Shoemaker "To maintain an adequate supply of low-skilled an unskilled workers for American businesses." Believe it or not that was a major goal announced by the presidept of the United States Chamber of Commerce last year at a Columbus legislative ; luncheon. Most listeners were too busy finishing their desserts to catch the • -real significance of this shocking pronouncement. The speaker elaborated by · suggesting the relaxation of our immigration laws to fulfill his administralion's number one goal. , The realization of federal and state welfare refonn laws has now magni· tied the potential tragedy that might be created if indeed our state subscribes to the theory proposed by this national leader. I'm not a scholar of history, but I think I've read enough to assume that this cockeyed logic of keeping a permanent lower class of economic citizens is not exactly what the founders of our country had in mind. Periodically (usuallY. during an election year) we choose up sides and fight the rhetorical battle of "minimum wage." A new term has now been introduced into the discussion called "living wage. Perhaps we would do a greater service to those on the low end of the pay· : roll totem pole by talking about a "beginning wage" instead. The opportu· · 'nity for advancement and promotion seems to be as critical for the wage : earner as the entry pay level for most jobs. Now comes the rub! For reasonable advancement we must provide :opportunities for the worker to develop and improve his own skills. Many •:politicians would like you to believe that requiring a person to work and to disappear from the welfare role is a completed and desirable task. Many Columbus leaders think a bus line to Southern Ohio to carry· workers back .and forth to low wage jobs is the panacea for their city. Heaven forbid that we might suggest location of a business south of Route 70 and then have the bus run our direction for a change!

By Nat Hentoff The late Card1nal Joseph Bernardin of Chicago used to urge pro-lifers ·- and I am among that number -- to see their commitment as a "seam· less garment."

The defendants ·• 14 individuals and two orga· nizations -- were charged with threatening abortion providers through a series of posters and a Web site, entitled "The Nuremberg Files." One of the posters lists by name a "deadly dozen of doctors" and highlights an indictment that, at the Nuremberg Trials, Nazis who forced abortions on Eastern European and Jewish women were prose· cuted as war criminals.· · Listing 225 doctors and abortion providers, the Web site provided their addresses, photos, license•plate numbers and, in at least oru: case, the names of their. children and the schools they attend.

The names of those who have merely been wounded are shaded in gray. The site is festooned with virtual blood dripping from fetus parts.

The Huskies (25-2, 16-2 Big East) played that game without Hamilton and Jake Voskuhl because of injuries. " "We definitely had something to prove, especially without those guys (in the first game) and because they beat us, " .said Khalid El-Amin, who added 21 for 'the Huskies. ·:we want- ed to come out and show we're really the best team in the Big East." UConn, which fell behind by 10 points in the first half. took control in the second.

Ryan Blackwell had,2p pomts and By CHRIS stii!RIDAN AP BBiketball Writ., While Michael Jordan, NBC and all the other big shots were lavishing attention on the dysfunctional Los Angeles Lakers, the Portland Trail Blazers and Miami Heat were making the most noise. The Trail Blazers became the first team to beat the Timberwolves on their home court, defeating Minnesota 100-93, while the Heat ~hook off the absence of three starters and an early 20-point deficit 6J beat the .Orlando Magic 84-78. · Now 3 1/2 weeks into this shortened season, the Trail B.lazers (9-3) are atop the Pacific Division and the Heat (9-4) are only a half-game out of first in the Atlantic Division. " Our deJlth is a big advantage," said Portland's Rasheed Wallace, who scored a season-high 22 points. "I'm glad we had that tonight. That's going to lead us far into the playoffs." At Miami, the Heat didn ' t quit after falling behind 37-17. ''I saw that the guys had a deep desire to win," said 'Miami coach Pat Riley, whose team has won eight of its last nine. "I could see it in their eyes. They were very upset with the loss to Detroit and with the horri ble stan today."

Wallace led six players in double figures with a season-high 22 points, and 10 Blazers saw at least 10 min utes of action- an indication of just how far coach Mike Dunleavy will go down his bench. Wallace shot 10-of- 14 and added six assists bc;fore fouling out with 2:03 to play. · Minnesota used an 8-2 run at the start of the second half to take a 5251 lead, but the Blazers responded with a 20-6 rally keyed by six points apiece from Isaiah Rider and Brian Grant. They never trailed again. Stephan Marbury had 25 points and a season-high 16 assists for the Wolves. Heat 84, Magic 78 The Heat won despite playing without Tim Hardaway, who hyperextended his right knee in Friday's loss to the Pistons, Voshon Lenard and Jamal Mashburn. It was the first game Hardaway missed due to injury since the Heat acquired him in a Feb. 22, 1996 trade with the Golden State Warriors. · A 12-foot jumper by P.J.

Tile three-day party convention 'brought to a boil in California the acrimony and anxieties that simmer withm the GOP across the country. The activists split along ideological lines, with abortion as one wedge. They picked at the scabs of November's election defeats, wondering what the results mean for the future of the party. And they were hearing from five Republican presidential candidates Saturday without a peep from the man many predict will be their standard-bearer in 2000: George W. Bush. The Texas governor did not attend the convention, which will draw seven presidential hopefuls before it ends Sunday. "He's our big hope in a time of little hope, " said Jim Morrissey of Anaheim, rummaging through a pile of " Bush-2000" stickers. State lawmaker Bruce Thompson handed out the Bush propaganda, rushing to keep up wtth demand while volunteers for candidates Steve Forbes and Alan Keyes sat on their hands at nearby tables . " Tells you something, doesn't it? " Thompson said. It speaks volumes about the desire of Republicans to find a new leader in the wake of November's elections. Democrats did surprisin.IIIY well nation wide, but nowhere better than in California, where they picked up lfe governor's office and retained the state Senate and Assembly. Republican spirit,; sank even lower when President Clinton survived impeachment and his supporters portrayed the national GOP as nothing but an anti-Clinton party_ l Even bedrock conservatives !like Barbara Alb) a state lawmaker from Sacramento, now argue that it is time to remake the party 's image . . " Voters like Republican principles/' she said . ."They don't like Republicans." · She said party leaders failed to conimunicme to average voters and did not produce results for conservatives, many of whom stayed ho,me on EII'Ction Day. "Somebody or something needs to turn them on," she said. Enter the presidential candidates. Sen. John McCain of Anzona warned Friday night that·Republican principles are too often overshadowed by "the politics of divtsion." It was a subtle reference to abortion -which McCain opposes but would rather not interject mto the political debate because he believes it is too personal and politically divisive . . Instead, he focused his address on the need to restore integrity to gov- ernment and swear off attacks against fellow Republicans. Quintero was nominated for several Tonys, winning for a production of " Long Day 's Journey into Night" and 1973's "A Moon for the Misbegotten." " He was also a founder of Circle in the Square, a small Greenwtch VIllage theater credited with energizing the off-Broadway movement after World War II. Among the actors he worked wilh dunng his nearly 50 years in the theater were Jason Robards, Colleen Dewhurst, George C . Scoit and · Geraldine Page.

He was 74 . Qumtero, who Jived in Sarasota, Fla., died Friday in a New York hospital, said his longtime friend and agent, Robert Lantz. Quintero directed more than a dozen major productions of works by O'Neill, who in the last decade of his life had been increasingly ignored by critics and audtences. O'Neill died in 1953. brought him and Circle in the Square attention. Yet, it was as a director of O'Neill plays that Qumtero won the most acclaim_In 1956. he directed the original Broadway production of "A Long Day's Journey into Night , ~ which starred Fredric March as the tyrannical James Tyrone and Florence Eldridge as his drug-addled wife.- Robards and Bradford Dillman played their troubled s0 ns. The.autobiographical drama, produced three years after O'Neill's death, is generally considered to be the playwright's finest work. Quintero later reflected on his production of the play. "S uccess is a terrible thing," he said. "You're not prepared to deal , with it, especially if you've been educated for failure as I'd been. You're afratd they'll find you out.:' . . Earlier that year, Quintero directed an off-Broadway revival of "The Iceman Cometh," starring Robards as Hickey, the hale and hearty barfly. It had Brooks Atkinson of The New York Times proclaiming, "'The Iccman Cometh ' is a mighty theater :vork. O'Neill is a giant, and Mr. Quintero is a remarkably gifted artist." Quintero, Robards and "Iceman" were reunited in 1985 for a second highly praised production, this time o n Broadway. The director and Robards joined forces on several o ther major O'Neill revivals on Br_o adway, includm g :·Hughie" (1964); "A Moon for the Misbegotten" (1973); and "A Touch of the Poet " ( 1977). Robards and Dewhurst starred as the parents in a Quintero-directed Broadway revival of "Long Day's Journey into Ntght" in 1988_ Quintero did not neglect the lesser-known O'Neill works eitlier, directing "Strange Interlude' ' o n Broadway in 1963 (with Page, Ben Gazzara and Jane Fonda), "Marco Millions " at Lincoln Center in 1964 and "More Stately Mansions" wtth Ingrid Bergman on Broadway in 1967.

Always keep fresh, clean dnnking water before the fowls all of the time-and clean the water dishes every day. Do not overcrowd the hens or keep too many in one building. Hens do best in Hocks of no rriore than fifty. In the summer, the chickens should have free range. However, if this is not possible, then supply them with plenty of green food .

She has graduall y been losing her sense of smell and has constant headaches and nasal congestion. She has had -examinations and tests, but neve r tells the doctors about her home remedy. I'm · very concerned about this problem. She says that smce she's not using commercial sprays, she doesn't have to worry about becoming dependent on this one. Help' DEAR READER; From the sound of your letter; I'd say that your ,..~l aughter is pickling her nose, and the nerves of smell as well . The strong components of her spray may certainly cause tissue damage. It's curious why she refuses to divu lge her secret to the doctrors. Perhaps she is e~perienc ing secondary gain by being mtserable and overtes ted. This is not appropriate.

In signing the resolution, the commissioners urged residents concerned about the road's cqnstruction to write letters of support, which can be turned in to the commissioners' office, and wh ich will be forwarded to ODOT and the TRAC. . 'The commissioners are also placing petitions in support ·or the project in local businesses, and are ask· ing residents to sign the petitions. In other business, Fair Housing Administrator Jean Trussell held a public hearing on a new round of fund· ing fat the .Community Housing Improvement Pro· gram. The program, funded through, the state, provides funding for hpusing rehabilitatiop for low-income homeowners, and IIStiistance in making a down paymenton the purchase of a .home. · During the past two program years, Trussell said, 65 to ' 70 hqmes were subject to needed repairs through the program. Last year, 68 applications wer.e approved, with .a waiting list remaining of 30. Those qualifying but not served will be given preference in the new funding round. . Up to $10,000 per household will be provided for necessary repairs, such as ''pluinbing and electrical work and the replacement of gutters and other protec· live measures. No cosmetic improvements are funded through the program. The downpayment assistance program provides funding to assist first-time home buyers in purchasing a home by providing financing of a down payment. The application for the new round of funding, according to Trussell, is April 9. Harry Leffle of Can-Do Maintenance, who was one of the contractors on last year's CHIP project, was also present to discuss the project. The commissioners also approved transfers of funds and appropriations adjustments for Meigs County Court, · and met in executive session with Michael Swisher, director of the Meigs County Department of Human Services. Present at the meeting were Commissioners Jeff Thornton, Mick -Davenport and Janet Howard, Prose· cuting Attorney John Lentes, and Clerk'Gioria Kloes. .....,.s c attempts to move up on natio political stage By KATHERINE RIZZO Alloclated Preaa Writer WASHINGTON (AP) -· Standing before a conference table in one of the capital's fanciest hotels, John Kasich faced the essence of his challenge as he tries to promote himself as a possible president. The unusually youthful-looking 46-year-old gressman.had come to call on the nation's largest senttor·t citizens' lobby, and needed to show a combination fresh ideas, experience and maturity. So, before talking about his tax-cut plan and visiiOnof-1 a nation run ''from the bottom up," the Ohio Re1put•li~m I took pains to show he understood he was addressing audience shaped by the Depression and war.

Fire chief ordinance receives second reading By JIM FREEMAN Senllnel Newt Slaff Pomeroy Village Council, meeting in regular session Monday night, approVed 4-2 the second reading of a proposed ordinance concerning the residency of top Pomeroy Volunteer Fire Department leaders. The ordinance, requiring either the fire chief or the first assistant fire chief to live in the village, was proposed after the fire department select· ed Olris Shank, who 'lives outsid~ the village, to be fire chief following the ~nexpected death of Fire Olief Danny Zirkle in December 1998. Action on the matter followed a ~minute executive session held to !)iscuss personnel matters. , Voting to approve the second reading were Council President John - ~usser and council members Geri Walton, Scott Dillon and .George Wright. · Council members David Ballard and Larry Wehrung voted against the measure. : Wehrung said he wanted more input from the people of the community before he could support the pro' posed ordinance.

Council President Sandy lannarelli , who Contlnuad on page 3 presided at last night's meeting, that she had beeri in contact with Rumpke since the last meet- ing, and that efforts were underway to resolve res· ident. complaints. · But she 53id that an ultimatum had been deliv· ered: either service improved or another provider would be r~tained for refuse servi_ce. In the meantime, lannarelli said, she and Clerk Bryan Swann had been in contact with officials in Oak Hill , where a village-run refuse service is in place. Council discussed the possibility of using money in the village refuse fund to purchase need· ed equipment, such as a compactor 111!ck and dumpsters, but took no action. · Swann estimated the cost of a compactor truck at $80,000. lannarelli noted that the possibility of a village-operated system was only an option, and that more extensive consideration would be made before a decision is made. Swann, and council members Beth Stivers and Roger Manley were charged with the responsibility of further researching the issue. Don Stivers of the Middleport Volunteer Fire Depar\ment presented a single bid for the purchase of a village fire truck, which is to be replaced later this year. Council approved the sale of the truck, at a price of $31,100, to the Mason; WVa., fire department, with tlie proceeds to offset the cost of the new truck, which will he largely funded by a . permanent levy approved last fall. lannarelli noted that repairs were needed o.n a portion of the roof on the village hall. An estimate of $845 was received for the repairs, but council will further consider replacing the roof with a · pitched roof to replace the flat roof which was installed last year. · Pat Custer, grants writer for the village, inquired again about the possible use of economi c development funds for Middleport's one·half share of the cost of a feasibility study for a new bike path from Middleport to Pomeroy. The construction of the path, which might be funded through state grant dollars, would be a joint project between Middleport and Pomeroy villages. The completion of the study, required before ,a grant application can be filed, will cost $14,000. : Council voted to fund Middleport's share oft~ study, but did not specify the source of the funds.: Village employee Junior Mattox discusse~ repairs to the vi llage chlorination system and ~ streetlight at the intersection of South Third, Avenue and General Hartinger Parkway. ' Jean Craig, Chairman of the Bo_ard of Public Affairs, updated council on a contract with Floyd ' Browne Associates, a consulting finn hired by the ·village to investigate problems with_ the village water and sewage systems. She said that the. board will meet with the president of the firm on Thursday to discuss progress on a study of the systems. Craig also noted that a part-time clerk had been hired in the water office, and requested storage and meetfng space for the board. Sam Eblen of the Recreation Committee addressed the issue of combining the positions of pool manager and recreation director this summer. No action was taken. Bill and Bob Roush discussed the condition of a family member's grave at Riverview Cemetery, and related problems that their family had experi· enced with a burial there. · Council also held third readings and moved to adopt resolutions setting a deadline. for the payment of landlord fees and entering an agreement with the couhty for emergency management services .
