· PoMEROY - A holiday home
tour, Christmas contests, and downtilwn decorations were among the
topics discussed at Wedllesday moming's meeting of the Pomeroy Merchants Association at City National
Bank.
. Sarah Fisher has planned the
home tour, which will include eight
houses decorated for the holiday
season. It will take place on Dec. 4
and 5 with viewing hours from 5 to
9 p.m. People's Bank is the primary
sponsor of the tour, with the Pomeroy
Merchants Association to co-sponsor
with advertising funds.
Cost will be $5 a person to include
f1,1vors and refreshments. All proceeds
will go into a fund designated for
flowers to be planted in downtown
Pomeroy next summer. Next week, a
listing of the homes on the tour will
be announced.
Fisher, who is beautification chairman for the Merchants Association,
displayed colorful wooden four-foot
Santas to be attached to some of the
parking meters. These will supplement the 30 carolers in .pairs which
she created last year. .
She also reported on plans for detoratmg the gazebos and the stage

area. Cleanup of the planting areas
was discussed and plans made for a
work session so that decorating of the
downtown area can get underway
next week. .
Annie Chapman, president, reported that Gordon and Linda Fisher pf
Syracuse have offered to donate 1!·
large Christmas tree for the v.illage if
someone wants to cut and transport
it to town. She also noted that the viilage will again this year be "freeing"
the parking meters for the holidays.
Sarah Fisher reported that a 20-by40 iron stemwheel silhouette has
been completed by GeQrge Nichols of
Nichols Metals, Mason, W.Va. It is in
three pieces on a flatbed near
Pomeroy Village Hall waiting to be
assembled and installed on a location
yet to be determined, she said. Once
assembled and painted, lights will be
wrapped around the metal frame.Plans were announced for several
contests to be held in the weeks preceding Christmas. These will include
cookies and candies, table decorations, package wrapping, and handmade wooden toys.
The schedule and location of the
contests will be announced later.
Deadline to enter each contest is
the Friday morning before the contest
takes place. To enter a postcard with

the name, address, and telephone
number of the person entering, along
wit~ the cont~st being entered is to be
mailed to the Pomeroy Merchants
Association, Box 549, Pomeroy,
Ohio 45769.
Contest items are to be taken 10
the designated location on Saturday
before II a.m. for judging. A firsl
place award of $50 and a second
place of $25 in gift certificates to be
spent at participating men:hants will
be awarded in each contest. In addition to those prizes in the cookie and
candy contests to be held on Dec. 4,
tickets to the home tour will be given in exchange for the cookies and
candy to be served at the tour rcccption .
Winners of the contests will be
honored and presented their awards at
a Pomeroy Merchants Association
reception to be held at the Farmers
Bank on Dec . .18. At each of the contests, the hosts will be in Victorian
costume, Chapman reported.
It was noted that Toney Dingess
will again this year be in charge of the
Christmas kickoff parade which will
· form at the old Pomeroy Junior High
Building at I :30 p.m. on Sunday,
Nov. 28. Santa will arrive and give
treats to the youngsters. Open house
will be observed by the men:hants.

· GALLIPOLIS - Running on a
platfonn of regional economic development alid upholding traditional
values, Michael Azinger has thrown
his hat into the ring in a bid to unseat
incumbent U.S. Rep. Ted Strickland,
D-Lucasville, nexl year.
"To win an election, you have to
have a contras~ and I will draw a contrast between myself and Ted Strickland, to give people a chance to
defeat Ted Slrickland and bring a real
q&gt;nservative to Congress," said
Azinger, a Marietta businessman
who also sought the Republican
nomination in the Sixth Congressional District in 1998 .
~ A political newcomer at the time,
Azinger's grassroots campaign was
successful in placing him third in a
five-way race for the nomination won
by then-Lt. Gov. Nancy Hollister.
: That encouragement; coupled with
II desire to see the 14 southern Ohio
counties constituting the distriCt
improve economically, have prompted Azinger to again file for the GOP

pri~. my firm belief that southern
Ohio is an area primed and ready to

be picked for economic development," Azinger said . Wednesday .
when announcing his candidacy in
Gallipolis.
. Azinger, who pursued seminary
studies in the late 1980s at HylesAnderson College in Crown Point,
Ind., and later joined his father's
insurance business, also said it was
time to elect a . congressman "who
represents values folks in southern
Ohio cherish."

cam:uses in seven council denomina-

Other observers say the council's
woes simply reflect the decline of
"Mainline Protestant" denominations such as the United Methodist
Church,
Presbyterian Church
· (U.S.A.), Episcopal Church. United
Church of Christ and Christian
Church (Disciples of Christ).
These denominations largely
shape the council's agenda and pay
the bills, even though most U.S.
.Orthodox and African-American
denominations also belong.
. The Rev. Joan Brown Campbell,
who retires as council general secretary Dec. 31, says of the Mainline
churches: "When they catch cold,
we get pneumonia."
Cold symptoms hit with a
vengeance last month when the
Methodist church, the biggest council member, suspended further contributions to the central operating
fund. The Rev. Bruce Robbins, gencl.Bl secretary of the Methodist ecumenical commission, reports that not
a single church member has protested this move.
Robbins says money will flow
again only with "arrival at a balanced budget and a viable financial
plan for the future. That requires dramatic change, and it's not easy."
Major cuts in the already shrunken
staff and program are essential, he
says.
Responding to complaints from
the Methodists and.others, the council last year hired the Pappas Consulting Group of Greenwich, Conn ..
to overcome what Pappas depicts as
years of financial and administrative
chaos. The resulting reorganization

project, budgeted at $750.000, eventwilly.cost $2.5 million.
Already short on cash reserves,
the council is now scrambling to
cover a $3.2 million operating debl
for 1999 by seeking emergency gifts
from member churches.
·The council wants jts respected
. relief and development ·arm, Church
World Service, to fork over S1.45
million toward the Pappas bill. Some
critics think normal administrative
overhead costs the council charges
thi: agency, 6.2 pen:ent of income,
~too high. The agency's board will
decide on this at Cleveland.
Also during the Cleveland meet. ina. Robert Edgar, 56, a United
Methodist minister ·and president of
the School of Theology at ClaremOnt, Calif., will be presented Friday for election to succeed Campbell

Legi·slation cracking dOwn

on·

truancy approved by Senate
By PAUL SOUHRADA
Associated Press Writer
COLUMBUS - Cutting c~sses
may seem like harmless fun for
some studenls, but for Sen. Robert
Spada it's a stepping stone to trouble.
"It may be a first step to a lifetime
of unemployment, crime and incarceration," Spada warned Wednesday
before the Ohio Senate approved leg·
islation that could land chronic tru·
ants - or their parents - in jail.
Three Democrats joined majority
Republicans in the 24-9 vote on a
scaled-back juvenile crime bill that,
in addition to cracking down on truancy, opens more juvenile records to
prosecutors a.nd victims and expands
the number of crimes that trigger a
state law allowing DNA samples to
be collected from juvenile offenders.
Under Spada's bill, which now
goes to the House for consideration.
schools would have to develop a plan
for helping habitually truant students.
Parents or guardians would be
rcquin:d to attend juvenile court
hearings and participate in school and
community service activities. If not,
they could be found in comempt of
court.
.
The penalties for contempt of
court range from a maximum 30 days
in jail and $250 fine for a first offense

to up to 90 days and a $1 ,000 fine for
three or more offenses.
Students who are chronically. truant could be found delinquenl and
sent to a detention center.
Spada sponsored the legislation on
behalf of Gov. Bob Taft, who made
. a get-tough approach to juvenile
crime a central theme of his 1998
campaign.
Gone from Taft's original proposal, though, were some even stiffer
provisions that could have put more
juvenile delinquents behind bars.
They were taken out in the Senate
Judiciary Committee.
The legislation initially established "blended" sentencing rules.
Judges would have been able to sentence violent offenders to youth
detention centers with lhe possibility of sending them to adult prison at
the end of their juvenile time if they
are disruptive at the centers.
Also slripped from the bill was a
provision that would have given
judges the power to send youlhful
offenders dire&lt;:tly to delention centers
for up to 90 days, without a lengthy
sentencing process.
Both ideas likely will resurface
during debate on a companion juvenile crime bill pending in the judiciary committee. The Ohio Criminal
Sentencing Commission's proposal

would give judges jurisdiclion over
serious juvenile offenders until age
25 and impose adult sentences on
lhosc who get into trouble in juvenile·
jails. It also would lower lhe age for:
committing a youth to juvenile detcn•:
tion to 10 from 12.
Republicans rejected an amendment from Sen. Eric Fingerhut, D- .
Cleveland, that also would have held ·
adulis responsible if their loaded
guns landed in the hands of children.
Any discussion of juvenile crime·
is incomplete without looking into
where the juvenile offenders are get: .
ting their guns, Fingerhut said.
:
Taft supported the idea during the ·
campaign but objected to having the
provision tacked onto the juvenilecrime bill. The fear, said Senate
President Richard Finan, R-Cincinnati, was that the bill would get ,
bogged down if pro- and anti-gun ·
control legislators used the legislation
· to push 1heir .views.

Budget negotiators try to.nail down agreements
By LAURIE KELLMAN .
AIIOCIIted Prell Writer
WASHINGTON- Budget negotiator$ are hopingto nail down agreements on overseas abortions and
money for new programs before next
week, the soonest Congress could
approve a budget deal and send it to
President Clinton,
As lawmakers left town Wednesday night for the Veterans Day holiday, White House budget director
Jack; I,.ew met with senior congressiollll' bljdget officials and emerged
with agreements on part of President
Clinton's plan to hire new teachers.
The Clinton administration and
Republicans also agreed to restore
$11 billion in Medicare c~ts to hospitals and.nursing homes enacted two
years ~~&amp;o. and neared a deal to let the
lnt~ational Monelliry Fund step up
its debt-relief efforts.
.
Sen. Ted Stevens. R-Aiaska, chairman of the Senate Appropriations
Cortunittee, "d negotiators were
considering a smaller .version of the
I percent across-the-board-cut in

proposed agency spending that Congress approved last month. Unlike the
GOP's earlier proposal, the White
House appeared to not have immedi~
ately rejected a scaled-down version.
"There's broad consensus on an
awful lot of issues," but several matters still need to be worl&lt;ed out, Lew
said. "There's certainly a mood of
cooperation and optimism." ·
But as congressional and White
House bargainers met into the
evening, they gave up hope of finishing in time for Congress to adjourn
'Friday. Senate Majority Leader Trent
Loll, R-Miss., sent the Senate home
for today's holiday and planned no
votes there until at least next Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Clinton signed a measure that will keep agencies functioning through Nov. 17. It was the
fifth temporary spending bill since
the new fiscal year began.
Both sides went into the long
weekend having made new progress
after days of relatively stagnant talks.
Negotiators agreed to a second

year of Clinton's seven-year plan to
hire 100,000 teachers, members of
both parties said. The White House
has made that proposal its highest·
profile issue in this year's budget
fight.
Clinton had requested $1.4 billion
for the ·program for fiscal 2000,
which began Oct. I, and negotiators
agreed to $1.325 billion.
Bargainers also agreed to let
school districts use 25 percent of the
program's funds for teacher training
and other education programs. That
limit has been 15 percen~ ilnd Republicans have wanled school districts to
have more flexibility in using the
money.
Teachers hired under the act
would have to be certified, and
schools with at least 10 pen:ent of
uncertified teachers could request
waivers to use the money for training
instead of hiring.
" I'm pleased," said Rep . William
Goodling, R-Pa., chairman qf the
House Education and Workforce
Committee. "Would I have liked

The Daily·Sentinel Will TV stop profiteering from politics·?
By MORTON KONDRACKE

'E.staDfisfid in 1948

ty of Virginia scholar Larry Sabato,
only half the stations serving his state
covered the crucial legislative elections. A few stations did it well, but
those that did not included the major
stations in Washington and the Tidewawr region, which reach half of the
state's population.
Similarly, a survey by the University of Pennsylvania's Annenherg
School for Communication found
that stations in Philadelphia covered .
issues in the mayoral election months
ago, but only the horse race in the later stages.
A dismal dynamic is at work in
TV and politics: More and more is
being spent on campaign ads, less
and less time is being devoted to covering cle~ tions, and voter turnout gets
lower every year.
According to one crusader trying
to change the system, Paul Taylor of
the Alliance for Better Campaigns,
"If this were a business, the CEO
would surely be fired ."
But, he says, "In politics, market
incentives don't apply. Most politicians like low-turnout elections. Their
object is to collect as much money as
they can, dominate the airwaves and

with the 2000 elections, in which the
presidency, Congress, probably a

significant policy,- Social Security,
Medicare, guns and health insurance
- are up for grabs.
Stations now have a new resource
to help with coverage - FreedomCbannel.com- that will collect 90second on-camera issue statements
from major federal candidates and
make video available at a low cost.

either. They'll rake in $600 million
from political advertising in 2000six times as much, after inflation, as
in 1972 - and spend less to cover the
races.
Their profiteering is all the more
outrageous because in the 1995
Telecommunications Act, Congress
handed the industry a $70 billion
windfall. giving it extra bandwidth to
use absolutely free.
To lower campaign costs, Cbngress ought to require TV stations to
give candidates some free airtime they operate, after all, under federal
license - ·l)ut most members seem
afraid of the broadcasters' power.
Suggestions by the Federal Communications Commission that it
might require stations to give away
time have been met wi.th congressional threats to cut off the FCC's
funding.
Last year, a commission appointed by the Clinton administration
came up with an ingenious alternative ' a suggestion that networks and
stations voluntarily put on five minutes of "candidate-centered" pro-

gramming per day during the month .
preceding the elections.
The idea was boosted in a letter ·
and newspaper ad signed by former
Presidents Jimmy Carter and Gerald .
Ford. retired CBS anchor Walter
Cronkite and 90 business, academic
and political figures.
Taylor's group has prepared a
handbook for local TV stations to use
in creating interesting political pro, ·
gramming through mini-debates,
interviews and issue statements. It .
reads like Broadcasting 101, but the.
stalfons seem to need it.
'
Broadcasters. says Taylor, seem to .
have the idea that politics is boring
and that voters ate turned off. !flhat'~ ·
so, he says, it's the result of a "self- .
fulfilling process."
"People have been fed junk food
for a generation and they are sick of
it," he said, referring to campaign ·
ads. He thinks that if stations provided nutritious, interesting meals,
people would return. Politics might
even improve ratings if stations·
devoted themselves to it.

WASHINGTON - A measure
that could keep \nternef companies
from delivering television broadcasts
to their customers is drawing ·fire
from America Online, other Internet
service providers and some lawmakers.
House Commerce Committee
Chairman Tom Bliley, R-Va.,
believes a provision in a satellite lV
bill that was passed by the House earlier this week unfairly discriminates
against the Internet as a medium over
which to carry TV programming.
"The importance of the Internet
and other online communications
technologies for enhancing consumer
access to information and programming cannot he overstated," Bliley
wrote in a letter to the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday.
The issue has to do with blanket
licenses that currently make it possible for cable TV companies to carry
local programming without having to
work out individual copyright agreements. The House bill would give
satellite companies similar licensed
authority to offer local stations to
their subscribers.
That bill is now stalled in the Senate over a provision that would guar. antee $1.25 billion in federal loans to
companies that provide local broadcast signals in rural aretis. Sen. Phil
Gramm, R-Texas, opposes the provision, because he says it is unclear
who would benefit from the loans.
Gramm said Wednesday night
that he would "vigilantly oppose" the
bill in its current form..
Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., said on
the Senate floor Wednesday that
without a vote on the bill soon, there
was a risk that hundreds of thousands
of satellite dishes around the country
would go black during the holidays .
The bill also htis the support of the
Clinton administration, despite concerns over earlier versions, White
House spokesman Banj Toiv said
Wednesday.

No. I Flonda State and No. 4
Flonda play what should amount to
warmup games on Saturday before
theu showdown a week later at The
Swamp.
The heat is on right now for the
other members of the top five- No.
2 V1rgm1a Tech, No. 3 Tennessee and
No.5 Kansa~ Stale.
.
The Hoktes (8-0,4-0 Btg East)
play host to No. 19 Mtamt (5-3, 3-0);
the Volunteers (7-1, 4-1 SEC) are at
Arkansas (5-3, 2-3) and the Wildcats
(9-0, ~0 Big 12) travel lo No. 7
Nebraska (8-1, 5-1) as the national
title race heads into the homestretch.
All three opponents are determined to reverse the results or a year
ago and play national championship
spoiler at the same time.
Early last season. Virginia Tech
needed overtil_lle to beat. Miami, 2720, and make II fourstratght overthe
Hurncanes.
"A lot of redemption is,&amp;oing to
take place '" thiS game, Mtamt
kicker Andy Crosland said. "I want
to go out knowing I've beaten
Virginia Tech once, and I'm sure
every senior does."
Says Hokies free safety Nick
Sorensen: "They want to beat those
country bumpkins from Virginia.
They want to beat us bad."

Then there was Tennessee's
"gift" 28-24 win over the
Razorbacks, when Hogs' quanerback Clint Stoerner stumbled over
his own man, fumbled with less than
two minutes left and the Vols recovered and scored the winning touchdown with 28 seconds remaining.
Both teams entered the game 8-0; the
Vols went on to win the national title.
" I think they'll be as pumped up
for this game as any game they ' ll
play this year. probably including
their bowl game," Vols defensive
tackle Darwin Walker said. " We're
going to have to play with that same
intensity. because they 're going to be
rowdy."
And finally, Kansas State visits
Lincoln a year after the biggest win
in school history - a 40-30 stunner
that ended a 29-gamc losing streak
against the Comhuskcrs.
,.
"Everybody in our program
knows it's a big game," Huskers
coach Frank Solich said. "But we try
to make our players understand and
our starr understand that in this program every game is a big game."
At Blacksburg, Va .. the Hokies
will rely on the nation 's third-rated
defense (233.5 yards per game) and
the versatile Michael Vick ( 1,228
yards, seven touchdowns passing:
324 yards. five touchdowns running)
to keep the Hurricanes at bay. The

'Canes counter . with Kenny Kelly,
who has thrown for 1,775 yards and
14 touchdowns and also is a threat to
run.
The Vols, who moved up to second place in this week 's BCS standings behind Florida State, must guard
against overconfidence as Stoerner is
back to make amends. His numbers,
1,629 yards and 14 touchdown passes, .are comparable to Tennessee's
Tee Martin (1.690 yards and nine
touchdowns).
The Huskers have hccn waiting a
year for this matchup. which features
two of the nation's top defenses. The
Wildcats arc semnd nvcrall at 232.5
ymds per ~amc: hmrth in swring
defen se at 11 .4 pnints per game.
Ncbr:~ska is fnurlh in Inial defense
(2.14.6 yards per game): third in smr·
ing at II points per game.

By JOAN BRUNSKILL
Asaoc:lated Press Writer
NEW YORK (AP) - Since
chicken, as well as other poultry, is
such a favorite food, it's good to
know we're unlikely ever to run out
of cookbooks eager to tell us about
mouthwatering ways to prepare it.
Here are some more new ones.
The glossy jacket cover of
"Good Housekeeping Best Chick·
en Dishes" (Time Inc.-Hearst,
$24.95) adds the underline "Plus
Turkey and Other Poultry Recipes"
and the large-formal, hardback
cookbook delivers a tasty toial of
some 375 recifks.
The editors who put together this
handsome collection say the dishes
were chosen "to represent simple
American home cooking, but with a
nod to the hottest restaurant trends."
That means they caier for preferences ranging from Homemade
Chicken Broth or Chicken Pot
Roast, to Apple and Thyme Chicken
or Grilled Apricot-Glazed Cornish
Hens.
For the holidays, consider trying
Sage-Roasted Turkey With Sauteed
Apples. the Christmas Goose or
Roast Capon With: Wild-Rice Stuff.
in g.
The book's design is pleasingly
clear. On many pages, c'olored boxes
feature su~;gestions for Last-Mi11utc
Dinners, Great Go-Withs or Creative Leftovers. Preparation and
cooking times and nutritional analysis are included with each recipe,
and many finished dishes are shown
in color photographs.
"Betty Crocker's Best Chicken
Cookbook" (Macmillan, $21.95)
. has the cheery subtitle "The Only
Chicken Recipes You'll Ever
Need'"

With some 13(/ recipes, . introduced by general infonnalion and
advice, this is an appealing hardback
offering. The layout is super-helpful:
Each ~ecipe is set out on one full
page, along with cooking time and
nutrition breakdown, with a fullpage color photo on the opposite
page.
Chapters include recipes to make
in 30 minutes or less, stir-fried and
skillet meals. baked and roasted
chicken, and varied recipes from
fonnal classics, grilled dishes and
salads to soups and chowders.
Each recipe on each page has a
bonus "tip" as in the one that
accompanies Basil- and ProsciuttoStuffed Chicken: it 's a shortcut,
telling cooks they can avoid cutting
a pocket in the chicken if they put
the ham and cheese on top before
broiling.

Buffalo Wings - as well as more
exotic variations such as South
African Cutlets in Curry Sauce and
Slechuan Chicken With Red Pepper
Shreds. He also includes a selection
of sauces and side ·dishes for the
chicken.
"Chleken: 150 Great Recipes
for AD Seasons" (Chronicle Books,
$17.95) by Elaine Corn.
Ms. Corn. a prize-winning food
writer, introduces the subject of her
paperback book with plenty or general advice and hints. This is followed by four seasonal groupings of
recipes that u~e a variety of cooking
methods.
For fall, she has a light and tasty
Velvet Chicken-Corn Soup, as well
as a showpiece for entertaining
described grandly as Vanilla-andMaple Marinated Chicken With
Bourbon Sweet Potatoes and
Macadamia Nuts.
To see ·you through winter,
there's a simple Chicken in a Pot,

to Crusty Chicken Breasts in Spring
Herb Sauce, and , later, Grilled
Coconut-Curry Chicken for a summer dinner.

given the potential for a vastly
increased selection and the high
incomes of those who buy online.
About a quarter of the 38 million
U.S. households that were online
last year made more than $75,000 a
ye11r. That's about a third more than
the average American household,
according to Jupiter Communications.
But demand for upscale products
online so far hilS been fairly small.
"The Internet is still new. When
someone is first going online, they
won 't buy a diamond ring, but I
think that as shoppers become more ·
comfortable with the Web, they will
be more willing to go for the higherpriced stuff," said Seema Williams,
an analyst at Forrester Research, an
Internet research finn in Cambridge,
Mass.
Believing that the online luxury
market will · soon take off, many
merchants have opened stores selling just high-end goods on the Web
in the last year. During October,
more than a dozen companies
launched new or redesigned Web
sites, just in time for the start of the
holiday shopping seaSQn.
Many see big profits since the
markup on luxury goods is significant. which means they can make
more on each item sold than those
merchants selling smaller ticket
items such as books or toys .
As the category expands, however, there is increasing concern about
how the Internet will change the lux-

: of its varied art collection.
The half-hour look at the collection, which includes four multimillion-dollar ·paintings by Paul
Cezanne, often called the father of
.• modem art, premieres tonight on
Ovation, a cable TV network devoted to the arts.
There's also a Georgia O'Keeffe
work that the artist kept with her
until her death, a portrait of Presi. . dent Theodore Roosevelt by John
Singer Sargent - and the pick of
anything the first family wants to
borrow from the national museums.
On the show, which Ovation will
cilny three .times in November, Mrs.
Clinton is accompanied by l. Carter
-Brown, chainnan of the U.S. Fine
· Arts Commission and head of the
network. The show has a potential
audience of 16 million households.
The first lady emphasized her
enthusiasm for bringing modem art
• to the White House.
Willem de Kooning was a Dutchborn artist who became prominent
among American abstract painters
and died in 1997. Wassily Kandinsky, one of the first abstractionists,
·' died in 1944.
Mrs. Clinton pointed proudly to
the sculpture garden outside the corridor leading to the East Wing of the
White House, where thousands of
visitors see it on regular tours. On
view when the toor was taped were
the works of modem French sculptor Aui!_uste Rodin and ~ericans he

..,

influenced.
.
It made the first lady think of a
modem British sculptor with a personal meaning for her as a law student at Yale, where she first met
Ptesident Clinton.
"There was this wonderful Henry
Moore - a seated woman - long
admired and in part loved because it
marked our first date," she recalled
on the show. "Sculpture is a big part
of our relationship."
Brown pointed out what may be
the most valuable part of the White
House collection.
"This Cezanne landscape, with
its blocky, chunkiness prefiguring
cubism, is one of eight paintings by
the artist ... bought early on by an
adventurous American collector
before Cezanne became revered as
he is today," l!rown said. Charles .
Loeser left them to the U.S. government.
"President Truman felt the
National Gallery should show them,
as they were not by an American
artist," Brown said. "Mrs. (Jacqueline) Kennedy was not long in
office, however, before she called
the gallery and asked to see them,
and as a young staff member I was
assigned to hang a selection of them
in this house. "
Many of the paintings have historic as well as artistic significance:
Brown cited the portrait of George
Washington by Gilbert Stuart, which
hangs in the East Room and is sometimes seen on TV when presidential
news conferences and public events
are held there. He said it was the
only major item left from the original White House.

"The Great Chicken Cookbook
for People With Diabetes" (American Diabetes AssQCiation, $16.95)
is written by Beryl M. Marton, who
had to revise her own cooking style
when she was diagnosed with diabetes some I 0 years ago.
But, she says in the paperback
book's ihtroduction, this is a book
" for all people who choose to eat
healthfully." She uses a lively variety of ingredients, but promises they
can be found in supennarkets all
over the country. The best of it, she
says happily, is that she enjoyed her
research for the book. testing each
recipe, and at the end of it all,
"chicken is still one of my favorite
foods. "
The recipes include familiar
favorites , as well as low-fat versions
of slightly more cosmopolita·n dishes such as Spanish Paella and Chinese Chicken Livers.

Show me the money: Are shoppers ready to buy luxury goods online?
By RACHEL BECK
AP Business Writer
NEW YORK (AP) - Shoppers
are buying lots of books, videos and
toys on the Internet these days. But
are they ready to purchase diamond
necklaces or designer suits online?
The test may come this holiday
season. Dozens of Web sites- from
traditional retailers to startups - are
flooding the marketplace with · all
sorts of luxury goods. including
Prada handbags a~olex watches.
But getting
e to actually
click on t~e "buy' utton - especially from e tailers tfiey've 'never
heard of- may be tough.
"Selling luxury goods online is
nothing like selling most other
things on the Web," said Michael
May. an analyst at the Internet
research firm Jupiter Communications.
"You've got the issue of what is
real and what is a knockoff.... The
issue of price, with some sites discounting anll others that don't," he
said. "But that doesn't mean shoppers won't buy expensive stuff
online. They just may proceed with
caution."
The luxury goods market is
already big business in the traditional retailing world. Sales last year
totaled $133 billion as the robust
economy and surging stock market
helped encourage shoppers to buy
expensive clothing and accessories.
Many expect luxury sales to
eventually flourish on the Internet,

those offering legitimate products.
"It's tough. You don't want
someone selling a Prada pocketbook
for next to nothing or selling a fake
Prada," said May. "When that happens, the notion ofluxury becomes a
commodity and the business model .
crumbles."

SCOTT WOLFE

~New'

teacher is no
stranger to Southern
fiy BRENNA SISSON
· When Scott Wolfe, the newest addition to the teaching staff at Southern
kigh School and alumnus of SHS himseH, was asked if he felt his road back
to SHS had been long and winding, he responded, "It's more like the road
not taken. I interviewed here at Southern and at Eastern straight out of college. The job at Eastern came up first and there was no guarantee of a job
~~re at SHS. So I took the job at Eastern."
'
Although-Wolfe was not teaching at Southern Local, he felt that he could
~Jlelp the school district by being a member of the sch?ol board.
:·· "I felt my experience as a teacher would help qualtfy me to help the stu. ilents ofthe district," he said.
~: He served eight years on the Southern Local School Board from 1985 to
:01993 and he served as president of the board twice. During those years the
·~chool board feared- that ~ district might have to enter into the loan fund
~Ice so m~y l)llltir'seh'ool!rln the· area:~" ····' ·
· -.
I' · "Meigs' and Eastern were already in the loan fund and-a representattve
' from the state told us that once Southern went into the loan fund consolidal:non most likely would be inevitable, and there could be just one county
:;school. Our board worked really hard to preserve our district and kept it out
:'Of the loan fund. I feel this was a great accomplishment and also strongly
~lecl that we may have helped save our county schools, because at the time
· ~he trend again was to consolidate as seen by the drop from 628 member
i.-schools in Ohio to 612," he said.
;. As well as taking the position as senior English teacher here at SHS, Mr.
•:Wolfe also holds positions as assistant coach to the varsity football and bas- .
;-.ketball 'teams. When asked about his coaching positions, he had this to say:
:: "Helping coach football at Southern was a rewarding experience for me
~because the kids worked very hard throughout the season. It was a httle dlst appointing though that we didn't win more games.~~ hope ~or this coming
!lbasketball season is that the vars1ty reach double d1g1ts m wms and that we
~continue to rebuild a winning tradition here at SHS."
!-i · Coach Wolfe' has also revived the Pep Club at SHS, which in years past
;~had been done away with due to lack of interest.
;: "Having graduated from Southern myself, I know ~hat school pride used
•'to be like here at SHS. Over the past 10 years the enthustasm has really d•mm~ished. Southern faits used to be recognized all acr95s the state. It is my hope
f that this will be the case again this year and in the years to come."

Recently, the senior drama class at
Southern High School had the opportunity to tiavel to Ohio University to
view a performance by the O.U.
School of Theatre, entitled "The Fantastics."
For those of you who do not know
it, The Fantastics is a musical and is
the longest running play on Broadway to date.
The plot of the story begins when
two young lovers are brought together by their mothers' cleverly planned
feud. Of course, because the couple
is forbidden to date one another, that
only makes them want to spend the
rest of their lives tqgether even more.
After all. teenagers always do the
opposite of what their parents tell
them, correct?
The mothers finally decide the
wretched feud has gone on long
enough and they reach an agre.ement
to end it. In order to end it, they

The Senior Drama Class
dream up another lavish scheme: they
will hire a rapist. (A rape in this story is not what we would normally ·
portray a rapist to be. It means kidnapping.) The mothers pay the rapist
a large amount of money for what he
calls a "high quality rape." The rapist
kidnaps the young girl and challenges
mances, which we all enjoy so much.

ton. There were 20 teams competing
in the contest. Out of the 20 teams
competing, we received tenth.
There were five different stations
we had to complete for the contest.
They were as follows: general knowledge test, equipment identification,
leaf identification, timber cruising,
and reading a topographicalmw
The general knowledge test consisted of. so questions ove r the different aspects of forestry. Most of the
girls liked this part of the contest
because it was held in a shelter and
their hair didn't get blown all over the
place by the wind.
Equipment identification consisted of looking at certain tools and
being able to identify them. Some
examples of the tools are:Aibney level, cinometer, compass, and safety
belts.
The timber cruising was everyone's favorite pan of the contest. In
this part we had to be able to find out
the diameter of the tree, the number
of 16-foot-long logs, and what kind.
of tree il was.
The topographical map was the
pirt of the contest that confused most
of our team, because we had not studied it. We had to be able to answer
questions pertaining to the map. We
are going to practice harder neKt year,
and hopefully do better.
The meml)ers that competed in the
contest were as follows: Amy. M.
Wilson, Lori Sayre, Jessica Hysell,
Travanna Moore, Alan Moore, JereBy JESSICA HYSELL
my Hill, John Smith, Sandy Smith, D.
On Sept. 23, the Racine-Southern J. Smith, Crystal Cottrill, Richard
FFA competed in the District Forestry Murphy and Chris Proffitt.
Contest. It was hel~ at New Lexing-

Ot!Sepr. 28, the Racine-Southern
FFA Chapter attended the district
soils contest. There were 8 members
who attended the contest. There was
an urban team, and a rural team each
consisting of four members each.
· We arrived at 9:30 a.m. The contest didn't start until II o'clock, so we
took that time to register and to do the
practice hole. After everyone had
done the practice hole, the judge
explained to us how he judged the
hole and what the answers for the
practice hole was.
The contest started at II o'clock.
The contest itself took around an hour
and a half to do. During the contest,
each team had to judge four different
pits. At each pit, we had to be able to
tell the slope, texture, depth of the
soil, plow layer, and the suitability of
the land.
When the contest had ended, Mr.
Sayre helped to. grade the score
sheets. We sat patiently awaiting the
results.
When we finally got the results,
the rural team got second place and
the urban team got 13th. The rural
team receiving second meant that
they would now ~dvance to state
competition.
Those members that attended the
district contest were as follows: Lori
Sayre, Amy Wi,lson , T. J. Moore,
Alan Moore, Kacy Ervin, Matt Johnson, Richard Murphy and Joe Adkins.

her love to a sword fight to win her
back, meanwhile gaining the praise of
their mothers. ·
The rapist pretends to let the
young man win, and his victory is
clear. Not only does he save his true
love, but the feud between the mothers has ended for good.
Things seem to be moving for the
better for the young couple until they
realize all ofthe things they had overlooked about each other before. Now
that they have received approval of
their mothers, they are no longer fit
for each other.
Tension re-heats among the mothers and this time among the couple.
At this point the play is filled with
chaos. Fighting mothers, fighting
lovers, it couldn't possibly get much
worse. But it does. The young man
decides he will go off to travel and
see the world and leave his once true

love behind with their childish mothers.

Then , just when it seems as
though the rapist has disappeared, h~
shows his ugly face once more biit
this time for a good reason. He fixc;s
things between the young lovebirds
and makes things right with the
mothers once again and finally, all i~
right with the world.

Thi s play in particular wa~
engulfed with exploding arrays ofta1ent. and the range of singing voic&lt;7~
was simply unbelievable.
·
There were a few cast members in

parts. They were called "mutes."
They added humor to the play when
everything seemed calmed and reatly made the musical come alive. •

TESTAMENTS: So just what
is the 'unforgivable sin'?
ological Seminary in Pasadena,
Calif., observes that blasphemy is so
weighty that at one time it was punishable by death (Leviticus 24: 15-6).
She summarizes the great sin as
an attitude that "denies the power of
the Spirit of God at work in Jesus."
That's the consensus view among
biblical analysts.
·The Catholic scholar John R.
Donahue of the Jesuit School of
Theology in Berkeley, Calif., writes
in "Harper's Bible Commentary"
that the passage refers to someone
with "the inability to distinguish
good from evil" who is so spiritualIy blind that ·he is unaware of the
presence of God.
A major Catholic reference work,
the "Jerome Biblical Commentary "
of 1968, observes that the saying
seems especially difficult for
Catholicism, which teaches that
repentance and salvation are possible up te&gt; the very moment of death.
So the commentary understands
the words this way: Unforgi.vable
blasphemy is something that makes
it impossible .for someone to recognize the work of God. In other
words, a person cannot recei.ve forgiveness unless "he confesses that
he has something to be forgiven ."
Thompson emphasizes that
God's mercy is liberal and lavish:
Every sin and every blasphemy is
forgivable, except for this one type.
She adds that it is not unforgivable
to harbor a single thought or make
·some insulting remark about Jesus
or the Spirit of God. "Rather it is a
sustained stance."
A further comforting explanation
comes from D.A. Carson of Trinity
Evangelical Divinity School in Illinois, in the "Evangelical Commentary on the Bible,'' Blasphemy
against the Spirit, he writes, does not
refer to a mindset resulting from
"ignorance or unbelief," but rather
conscious rejection of something
that is perfectly obvious.
• Still frightened? Donald A. Hagner, Thompson's faculty colleague at
Fuller seminary, makes a related
point in his Matthew volumes for
the "Word Biblical Commentary":
If someone is truly worried about
commiuing the unforgivabie sin,
that concern itself proves this person
cannot be guilty of this sort of biasphemy.

AP Rellaloa Writer
It's probably the most frightening
thing that Jesus Christ ever said:
_ "Every sin and blasphemy will
lllc f011iven men, but the blasphemy
4gainst the Spirit will not be f011iv~n . And whoever says a word
~~gains! the Son of Man will be forjiven; but whoever speaks against
lJ!e Holy Spirit will not be forgiven,
lrither in this age or in the age to
eome."
:: Thai's the teaching as recorded in
Matthew 12:31-32. Much the same
wording is also found in Mark 3:28~ and Luke 12: I0. Instead of
~unforgivable sin," the famiiiar
)ihrasing quoted above from the
levised Standard Version, the New
~evised Standard Version speaks of
·~an eternal sin."
~ Whether eternal or unforgivable,
thai is it? How are we to understand
lhc:se words of Jesus? Experts proVide a variety of interjlretations.
:: In the new "International Bible
eommentary," published by the
Catholic Liturgical Press, Philip
Shuler contends that Jesus meant it
was unforgivable for the Pharisees
to align themselves with "tyrants
and oppressors." But few other analysli give that son of political spin to
the text.
•.• Then there's the approach of
!-Higher Criticism, which thinks New
Flestament passages indicate what
I Jhe Iller church thought rather than
Jesus originally taught. In his
' ·commentary on Matthew, Paul Min'ear of Yale Divinity School notes
.lhat the Jesus saying occurred dur•iJig a dispute with the Pharisees, so

figures the passage expresses the

'llj)plies biblical teachings differently

Ryrie of Dallas Theological Semi' nary in his best-selling study Bible.
: "The

disagree, and take Jesus' warning

Search for clues 'in jet crash focuses
By GLEN JOHNSON
· A'*oc!Med Pre'* Writer

WASH~NGTON - With the flight data recorder from EgyptAir Right
990 s~wmg.thmgs were normal until the autopilot mysteriously disconnected, tnvesttgators looking mto the Oct. 31 crash say it is all the more important that they recover the plane's cockpit voice recorder.
The search fonhat second " black box" continued early today amid rubble ptled 6 feet htgh, some 250 feet deep in the Atlantic Ocean off Rhode
Island. The recorder may not only reveal what the pilots were saying to each
other, but what .other notscs or alarms were audible in the cockpit.
In Boemg anplanes, for example, an· alal'm sounds if the autopilot disconnect button isn't .pressed twice in a row -a way to prevent the pilots
from mtssmg an acctdental disengagement.
" We await information off the cockpit voice recorder, when it is recovered, that can help us put this information in context," Jim Hall, chairman
of the National Transponation Safety Board, said Wednesday as he revealed
the first bits of information from the plane 's flight data r:ecorder.
Hall satd the New York-to-Cairo flight had been cruising normally at
33,000 feet when the autopilot disconnected. That is unusual, because the
plane was just beginning its hours long cruise across the Atlantic Ocean. Hall
refused to say if the autopilot disconnected manually or automatically.
About etght seconds later, the flight "begins what appears to be a controlled descent" from 33,000 feet to about 19,000 feet, Hall said.
The recorder stopped shortly afterward, and the final five to I 0 second;

Gore calls
for U.S. to
reassert
leadership
DES MOINES , Iowa (AP) Warning about isolationist trends
sweeping through Congress, Vice
President AI Gore is using a Veterans' Day speech to argue that the
United States must reassen its role
as an international leader.
Gore also was calling for
increased defense spending while
using the iss.ue to sharpen differences with Bill Bradley. his rival
for the Democratic presidential
nomination. But he said "the
change we need requires more ·
than just strong defense."
" It also requires American
engagement with the world, and it
requires American leadership,"
Gore said in remarks prepared for
delivery today.
.
In the speech. Gore laments
Senate rejection of a nuclear test
ban treaty that he said was "sacrifi ced on the altar of partisan politics" and pointed to what he argued
were troubling trends in Congress.
" More and more each year,
engagement abroad means a political struggle here at home," he
said. " When even free and fair
trade agreements that deepen the
ties among nations become political footballs, we threaten our very
stability and security. "
Gore credited the administration
with helping to build a new consensus behind increased military
spending, but said agreement was
lacking on the need for effective
diplomacy.
"We have rebuilt a consens.us in
our country for a strong national
defense policy, but we also need a
national consensus on the other
great pillar of American foreign
policy - waging peace through
serious and sustained diplomacy,"
Gore said.
He also argues for combining
diplomacy and military policy in
one package.
"Diplomacy together with military might is how we fight the
spread of nuclear weapons in the
world," Gore said. " It is how we
are breaking up deadly drug canels
and crime syndicates around the
world."
The address is the latest effort
by Gore to paint Bradley as too liberal to win the White House, as
well as cast himself as a leader on
the world stage.
Bradley, a former senator,
recently told a disarmament group
that he saw no need to boost military spending, although his
spokesman did not rule out pay or
benefit increases.
"Military spending should be
adjusted as needed. to protect
America's most vital and imponant
interests. I believe current levels
would suffice if the Department of
Defense was led and managed
effectively," Bradley replied

DES MOINES, Iowa - Steve
Forbes gets attention for his money
and his stubborn focus on a sharply
conservative message, but Michael
Mahaffey paused only briefly when
asked for his assessment of the publisher's campaign.
"I sense there's some momentum
in that camp," said Mahaffey, a former state GOP chairman. "There's
something to be said for having an
organization in Iowa."

With
virtually
unlimited
resources, Forbes is a threat in Iowa's
leadoff tests to Texas Gov. George W.
Bush, the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination. With
Arizona S,en. John McCain - who
isn 't competing in Iowa- narrow.ing the gap in New Hampshire, Bush
faces clear challenges in the two early states.
In Iowa, Forbes has based his
campaign on a laser-like focus on
organizational politics. Attendance at

MEXICO CITY - The Mexican
DC-9 jetliner that plunged to earth
shortly after takeoff, killing 18 people, had numerous maintenance problems that at times threatened the safety of its passengers and crew, former
flight attendants for the operating airline alleged.
The airline, Taesa, vigorously
denied the accusations Wednesday,
saying that all of the airplane 's maintenance needs were addressed.
Flight 725 originated Tuesday
from the western border city of
Tijuana with 91 passengers aboard. It
took off again after stopping in
Guadalajara and Uruapan, an avocado-growing city·of 250,000 people. lt
had only 13 passengers and five crew
members aboard as it headed to
Mexico City, 180 miles to the east.
Investigators had located the voice
and data flight recorders Wednesday
but had not determined the cause of
the crash. Taesa was quoted by the
government news agency Notimex as

saying the plane was in perfect
mechanical condition, and that its
engines had recently been overhauled.
The Union of Me xican Airline
Attendants claimed the airplane that
crashed had at least 20 "irregularities " at one time or another, the most
serious involving fuel leaks that
caused losses of up to 2,200 pounds
of fuel in flight , inspections and lubrications left undone because of a lack
of spare parts, and an excessive pressure leak in one door.
The majority of Taesa's 34 airplanes have deficiencies, union leader
Alejandra Barra[eS said during a
news conference in which the union
distributed a list of problems in Taesa's airplanes.
But Taesa press director Gregorio
Onega called the complaints "a mixture of two things: problems that never existed and some that, well, that's
what flight logs are for, to point out
errors that should be corrected.
Everything was taken care of at the
appropriate time."

"[ think he's real and where he's
real his support is deep," said Lowell Junkins, a Democratic consultant
watching from across the partisan
aisle. "Unlike last time when he was
sort of a superficial candidate, this
time he's real."
Most polling in the state has
shown Bush with a lead, and Forbes
in second place with the margin
between them varying from poll to
poll. Polling in a caucus state is tricky
because it's difficult to measure the
level of commitment of activists or to
assess the efficiency of campaign
organizations.
With his resources and commitment to the state, however, it is clear
that Forbes is poised to do some damage.
Adding to that, he's about ready to
launch a new round of television
commercials in the state to highligh1
his differences with Bush.

Ortega added that Taesa had filed
a defamation lawsuit against Barrales
when the complaints were first aired.
The union made its concerns public
months ago and in the wake of Tuesday 's crash, Barrales said, adding " it
seems our obligation now to repeat
them."

OBERLIN (AP) - Police were looking for a man who stabbed an Oberlin College student in her dormitory room during an apparent robbery attempt.
The 20-year-old victim was stabbed in the head, neck and back during
the attack about 7:30p.m. Monday, said police Chief Robert Jones. She was
treated and released from Allen Memorial Hospital and was expected to recover fully from her injuries, according to police and college officials.
Police have a possible suspect but no arrests have been made, Jones said
Wednesday.
The victim, whose name was not released, did not know the attacker, who
police believe was not a student.
Jones said experts were trying to determine if a kitchen knife found at the
scene was the weapon and if.any items were taken from the room at Noah
Hall.
Police did not know how the man got into the donn, which requires a security card to open the door. Jones said the suspect may have slipped in as another student walked in or was let in by someone.
Jones said the attacker did not force his way into the room but would not
elaborate on how he got in.
The attack was the third in three years against a student in a building at
Oberlin, about 30 miles west of Cleveland.
College President Nancy Dye urged students in a letter to be cautious and
never let strangers into dormitories.

POMEROY - A dismal turnout

In his remarks, Legion member
Ron Eastman said that movies, popular books and television all glorify
war. and said that the biQ9dshed, pain
and suffering of veterans who served
and died are often glamoriled.
"There's no glory in war ... none
whatsoever," Eastman said. "Anyone
who says there is glory in war has
never fought in a war.".
The service was led by Post Commander Jerry Hawley.
Myrori Duffield, who chairs the
committee in charge of the monumen! restoration project, gave background on the memorial, noting that
it was dedicated by the legendary Sgt.
Alvin C. York in 1927. 'The memor·
ial was originally placed in Pythian
Park in lower Middleport, but was
moved in the late 1930s to its current
location otl Mill Street.
Duffield introduced George Wolfe
of Pomeroy, who helped rebuild the
monument when it was moved.
Wolfe worked through the YPA program, a New Deal relief project, to
help in the construction'.
Duffield said that the Legion com-

original dedication, to rededicate the

The project will include repair or
replacement of the clay tile roof,
refurbishment of concrete steps and
sidewalks, and fresh 'paint and new

The restoration project has been
estimated to cost $12,000, and a

Group seeks establishment of
veterans center in Dayton
DAYTON (AP)- A proposal to preserve four Civil War-era buildings
on the grounds of the Dayton Veterans A(f~ Medical Center and establish
a site to·honor American veterans has been' announced.
"Essentially, our mission would be to preserve the best of our veterans'
past," said John Meagher, project director of the American Veterans Heritage
Center.
Speaking at a news conference on the -grounds Thursday, ~ said
the group w;tnts to create a museum and research library at or near the buildings. He said such a center would honor veterans and serve as a magnet for
cultural events and veterans reunions.
·
It also could sponsor programs on conflict resolution and violence prevention to "see how we can better teach jlcace;" he said.
Meagher said he did not know how much the project would cost, but hopes
it can be funded by private donations. He said his group just received tax-

status.
