FRIDAY S SATURDAY • From the ODNR Ohio Division of Wildlife ATHENS- Monday al6:59 a.m. marks the opening of the deer gun season in Ohio. Hunters will take to the fields lUld woods in pursuit of Ohio's only big game anil)lal, the white-tailed deer. · This year, hunters in Galliaand Meigs counties will be able to take up to two deer, as will hunters in other counties located within Zone C. Hunters in Zone B and Zone A may take only one deer. Season ending dates this year vary depending on zone. For those hunters· in counties located in zones B and C - including Gallia and Meigs counties - the season win end Sunday, Dec. 5. For other hunters, the deer gun season will end Saturday. · Biologists at the Division of Wildlife's Waterloo For1;11, Wildlife Research Station in Athens County have IXimpleted a review of harvest and survey records and BllY that deer abundance statewide is nearly at target levels. According to deer biologist Dr. Michael Tonkovich, Ohio has more conservative deer hunting regulations this year compared to· recent years with harvest regulalions targeting individual county populations. Statewide,· the deer population is estimated at 420,000. Hunting hours are one-half hour before sunrise to sunset. Legal hunting implements include: 10, 12, 16, 20, 28 or .410-gauge shotguns using one ball or one rifled slug per barrel; muzzleloading riOes .38-caliber or larger; handguns with a 5-inch minimum barrel length in 357 magnum, 41 magnum, 44 magnum, 45 long Colt or 357 maximum; or a longbow or crossbow. All deer taken must be checked at an official deer check station in the county where taken or in an adjacent county in the deer gun zone where killed. The person who kins the deer must transport it to the check station. Deer must ~ checked ,by ~ p.m, following the day of. harvest, with the CllllJifl\iOG of deer hlll¥~l on Supday, Dec. 5 in zones B and C. which must be checked by 8 p.m. on that da~. . . • . . . . .. , hunting oflll"wild ' lnlmllls - e~ctlJI deer, waterfowl; boar ~~~~~·y_o~~~ ed during erwise responsible people can make mistakes under these circumstances; sometimes fatal mistakes when they involve firearms. "Hunting is among the safest of all outdoor recreational activities and remains so today even with increased hunter participation. But we can't stress enough the importance of using some common sense and hunting in a safe manner," said Michael Budzik, Division of Wildlife chief. The Division of Wildlife offers these timely suggestions to help hunters avoid making mistakes, as well as avoiding those who.make these mistakes: · • Do a.~r~:hunl safety ~~eck. Does the safety on your Change~s-ii~q~t~~~•i';;'; regulations require hunters using shotguns to plug them to hold no more than three shells. Also, during the deer gun season, both firearm and bow hunters must be visibly wearing a vest, coat, jacket, or coveralls colored hunter orange. Hunting safety is also of concern to the Division of Wildlife. Deer hunting can be strenuous work. It can be cold and monotonous, and for a brief monient, intensely exciting. All these factors can dull anyone's thinki.ng, impair'lhcjl'ljuilameot, or slow their .~lion tinne. Olh-. 1 .' · •. , .....,~ ··-.

When entering or leaving the woods in the dark, turn your flashlight on whether you need it to see or not. This prevent you from being mistaken for a deer or becoming injured in a fall. • Tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return. • Plan your hunt and hunt your pi ail! Know where other party members will be. Do not leave your assigned area. • Double check your own firearm. Make sure to unload idle guns or when crossing obstacles. • Blaze orange clothing is cheap and the most effective way for other hunters to know where you. are and what you are. The more hunter orange you wear, the better. Keep orange clothing visible when field dressing or dragging a deer out of the woods. • Never assume other hunters are safe hunters. Check the gun handlers around you. Are their muz21es pointed in a safe direction? • Igno~e peer pressure which places such urgent importance on getting a deer that it causes you to take chances or use a hunting implement in an unsafe manner. The Wildlife Management Institute says the number of injuries per 100,000 participants in outdoor activities is highest among football, baseball, and soccer players. Injuries to those participating in bicycle riding, roller skating, fishing, and golf are also ranked well ahead of the injury rate related to hunting. Fatalities are higher in accidents related to automobiles, accidents in the home. accidents related to falls, poisoning, fires, and suffocation when compared to hunting, according to the Division of Wildlife.

"Deadbeat drivers" arc ·those motorists who endanger children by not buckling them up while riding in cars or trucks. , To address "deadbeat drivers," more than 300 law enforcement agencies thrc;>ughout Ohio have joined more than 7,000 agencies around the country to participate in the fifth Operation ABC Mobilization, the nationwide push to enforce child passenger safety and seat belt laws. : . According .to the Ohio Department of Public S4fcty, the Ohio State Highway Patrol, county sheh iffs departments and municipal police departments have declared zero tolerance for unbuckled chil· dren . . Participating law enforcement agencies have agreed to conduct increased enforcement of child passenger safety laws through today, however Pomeroy Police Chief Jeff Miller said last week that his department pursues "deadbeat drivers" yearround. Miller e~plained that motor-vehicle crashes arc the leading cause of death for children of all races ages 5-14. Every day, an avera&e of seven children ages 14 and under died and another 866 were injured in motor-vehicle-related crashes in 1998, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Nationwide, driver seat bell usage is .the strongest predictor of child restraint usage ·- a restrained driver is three times more likely to restrain a child, Miller said. · Data shows that when a driver is buckled, 86.9 percent of the time the children are buckled, too. When a driver is unbuckled,. restraint use for chil· dren is 23.7 percent, according to the NHTSA. Last year in Ohio, 79 children age 0-15 were killed in car crashes; 58 percent of these children were not buckled up, according to the Ohio Department of Public Safety. . "If we know what is killing our· kids, we are obligated to use every known tool to reduce these avoidable deaths," said. Ohio Lt. Gov. Maureen O'Connor, OOPS director. "By declaring z.cro tolerance for drivers who fail to buckle children, Ohio lilw enforcement agencies are helping to' reduce the number of children dying needlessly OJ) our rc;~ad­ ways." Ohio law requires children who are under the age of four oi who weigh less than 40 pounds to be restrained in a properly used. child safely seat that meets · federal motor vehicle standards. This law applies to all drivers. . Unlike Ohio's driver and passenger seat belt laws, a child safety seat law violation is a primary offense - meaning law enforcement officers can stop drivers for not having children buckled. In Po'meroy, having an unbuckled child carries a 'Tis the season to go shopping costs; compared to and $15 for an unbuckled driver or front seal · passenger, Miller said, adding that when accidents occur in Pomeroy, in most instances the children are buckled up. The Air Bag & Set ! Bell Safety Campaign offers the following safety tips: • Children 12 and under should ride properly restrained in a rear seal; • Infants should never ride in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger air bag; · • Small children should ride in a rear seat in child safety seats approved for their age and size; • Check you vehicle owner's manual and the instructions provided with your child safety seat for correct use information; • Everyone should buckle both lap and shoulder belts where available; • Drivers should sit a~ least 10 inches from the center of the steering wheel to their breastbone for the clearest margin of safety. .

Older children count a million birdseeds to ful· 1 Yunderstand the concept of such a large number. No textbooks are used as children get "classrooni manipulative kits" with pattern blocks and cubes. To the Education Depanment, the packa••e of elementary school lessons . o IS a "promisi ng " program proven to help a variety of children learn math. "'o · th 200 h · · d h · ·sts, 'I hL an d an d mnc · •• more an mat emauc1ans an ot er sc acnu 1v at other math programs that recent ly won departmental endorsem.ent a'e . . neg Iectmg <mponant ski lls such as dividing fractions and multiplying mul· tidigit numbers. These skills, the lessons cri tics say, are esse ntial to students mastering advanced concepts such as algebra. calcul us and physics. which in tum lead to high-performance in cngmecring and other skilled fields. · "Many of us felt they were among the worst programs in existence." said David Klein, a math professor at California State Univers ity at Nonh· ridge. In a letter and a full-page advertisement in The Washington Post, Klein and other scholars urged Education Secretary Richard Riley to stop cndorsing the school mathematics programs. They al so urged school districts to ignore the endorsements and choose math programs wiah "caution.·: . The department says Congress requires that it recommend "prom ismg" ·or "exemplary" programs in a handful of subjects. "We simply report the finding s of an independent panel of experts." Riley said. "The local dec< sion is what is mosa important. ll1c local school boanJ is not in anyway hound to usc what w~ ·ve recommended. " By law, the department can nollo tell the 11ation's nc·arly 16.000 school districts what to teach. But in I YY4. lawmakers sought to improve the way th'e agency helps districts sort out good lea rning programs. It required an expen panel to review programs in math, scie nce. scf1ool safety, technology and gender equity. The mandate is up for renewal in the com ing year. Riley sai!llhat the panel of experts was chosen carefu ll y. He has no intenlion of withdrawing the recent report on the panel 's recommenda· lions. · The department's recommendation system is intended to guide districts through the many commercially available lesson packages. But it also could find itself in a curriculum debate between the traditional and the experimentaL . . In the last several years, educators have sought to improve the nation's lackluster math test scores. This week's release of a national report and the launch of a family math education campaign will underscore that middie schoolers, in panicular, are lagging in math skills. · Connected Mathematics, one of the programs called exemplary, was rejected in California. Mathematicians who reviewed the middle school program complained that it contained errors and omitted the division of fractions and other concepts. Amid the growing popularity of innovative math education , Klein said, the group of scholars fe lt compelled to act. ."We want to get the word out," said Klein . "How else is a regular citizen like me going to get the U.S. Secretary of Education's attention? At least teachers who are under assault from principals to use these bad programs have this letter." The letter is signed by 200 scholars, including heads of math departments at the California Institute of Technology and Stanford University; two recipients of the Fields Medal- math's top honor - and four Nobel laureates in physics. The ad, funded by the Los Altos, Calif.. based Packard Humanities Institute , also criticizes the Education Department for leaving " active research mathematicians" out of the decision-making. Not true, says Linda Rosen, Riley 's math and sc ience policy adviser. . The agency's expen panel - nearly I00 teachers, mathematicians and other evaluators - spe nt more than two years rev iew ing the programs before recogmzing the 10 programs from an original list of 61 submined by p'ublishers or developers, she said. They were chosen based on factors that included quality, usefulness and proof of student success. Five were designated "exemplary" because they helped a variety of children. Five others were called "promising" if they -succeeded in a few schools. · ,"Several folks had the opponunity to panicipate in very significant conversations," she said. Supporters contend the new programs help children from varied back· grounds grasp math· concepts and teach them to think about problems beyond rote memorization of multiplicati6n tables . Some classroom teachers are less certain. "I've seen absolutely no rel ationship between mathematical ability and socioeconomic status." said Lawrence Braden, a longtime math instructor at a private school in Concord, N.H., that serves·a variety of children. "The poorest kid in the Bronx should have access to the best program because that kid could be the next Alben Einstein ...

But a McCain campaign official ' noted the Arizona senator hasn't spent nearly as much time in South Carolina, and he maintained that once he does the race there should lighten as well. A Time-CNN poll released Friday showed Bush and McCain statistically even in New H!iffipshire, 37 percent for McCain to 35 percent for Bush, the governor of Texas. Multimillionaire publisher Steve Forbes was at 8 percent and the remainder of the candidates were in the low single digits. ' Bush led McCain 62 percent to 15 percent in South Carolina.

OVCS hosts Delaware Christian, Ridgeville and Xenia Christian in the OVCS Girl s Classic Friday and Saturday to kick off the home portion M the 1999-2000 slate. Burleson, now in his second season as bench boss for the OVCS · girls, welcomes back four starters from the 98-99 team, including leading scorer and rebounder Abby Meyn . She is one of four seniors on the OVCS roster. . Meynaveraged 17.3 points and 6.6 rebounds per game. She. shot a team-best 52 percent from the field and 68 percent from the foul line last season.

Gooch and Taylor played In all 22 games last season while Pollard missed just two games. Burleson said that each of his seniors has performed well in the preseason workouts and scrimmages. All three bring a wealth of experience to what is largely a youthful Ohio Valley Christian squad. Once you get past tlie (our seniors, the remainder of 'the squad is .comprised mainly of one sophomore and several freshmen. " I've got some young kids that are · playing fairly well," said Burleson. "We've had a couple of scr immages that they've looked good in." Among the group of youngsters returning for Burleson is Chelsea · Gooch, who brings size (5-10) and athleticism to the mix.

If they could have beaten Minnesota, Michigan and Michigan State, then I would have given them my blessing. When all is said and done, the BCS system has too many holes. It penalizes the more powerful conferences. A championship game that includes the ACC-Big East conference winners just doesn 't seem to measure up to Big Ten football. Virginia Tech beats Boston College 38-14, bolsters title-game bid !. I 'r ,. By The Associated Press Virginia Tech's victory ower Boston College didn 't just cap off its first perfect regular season in 81 years. It might have given the No. 2 Hokies a berth in the national championship game. With the 38-14 victory over the Eagles on Friday and No. 3 Nebraska's tight overtime win over Colorado, it appears Virginia Tech is the leading candidate to face topranked Florida State in the Sugar .Bowl. The Huskers still have to play Texas in the Big 12 championship game Dec. 4. "You look at the ranked teams that we played this year, and we' ve taken all of them to the woodshed, " an emotional Corey Moore said as he held on to a victory cigar. " I firmly believe and I' m confident that we' II be in New Orleans." The Hokies ( 11-0, 7-0) got three long touchdown passes from sensational redshirt freshman Michael Vick and another big effort from its nationally ranked defense . The victory gave the Hokies a 174-31 scoring advantage in games agamst Virginia, Syracuse, Miami and the Eagles, but still no guarantee that it will be good enough to get into the Sugar Bowl, this year's designated championship.

Western Auto and 'fope's Flooring. : • Occupants of 59 Court Street included: Mauck and Bradberry Tailor Shops, Miller Produce, A. L. Fee's Barber Shop and G. J. Welherholl's Mor-tuary. The exa.ct date that Oscar Bastiani took over the 57 Court Stree~build- ' ing cannot be determine(jl but it is believed that Bastiani had been at 59 . ~Court Street since the 1940's. From the 1940's until 1994 this building was one of Gallipolis' most famous restaurants, Oscar's. The restaurant closed, due to fire damage from the Womeldorf and Thomas Building that burned in November 1994: Although work was done on the building with the hopes of ·re-opening, the restaurant never did make it's debut. In the fall of 1998, a demolition order was given to Bill Brady, then owner of the Oscar's Building. The City Commissil!'n was concerned thatlhe 'building was unsafe because of loose bricks on the top part of the wall, fac,ing the river. In addition to being a significant historic structure, The Preservation Board felt lhe building was safe. To determine its structural stability, Raintree Limited Partnership hired Korda-Nemeth Engineering, Inc., slruc· lur:al engineers, to investigate the building. On November 20, 1998, KordaNomelh issued a leiter staling that the building was indeed structurally 'sound.

Like all the river front land, it is clas· sified as a garden lot and it's recorded history is traced directly back to the Ohio Company. On December 26, 1796, agents of the Ohio Company deeded the lot, along wilh other Gallipolis property, to P~ter Magnier of Pillllburg, Pennsylvania. In 1818, Magnier sold to John Myers. Myers built and managed a very popular tavern on the property until1832. During the 1800's the property owners changed five times. In 1873, the property was leased for five years to The Marine bock Company. For the next forty years, it was leased by Greene Line Steamers and was used for steamboat repairs. As you can see this garden lol was a very, very busy place with much river activity. When Greene Line moved its Boiler Works downstream to Garfield Avenue all activity ceased on this property. In 1946, J. Raymond Hoy purchased the land and built the present home on the firm foundations of the old Boiler Works. When the Simons bought the home they acquired a lovely place, well designed and planned for one of the mosl charming views along the Ohio River. The Simon home will, as many of the others, have a traditional Chrisl· mas theme. All of you Beanie Baby collectors will enjoy the Christmas tree in the basement lhat has been fully decorated with Beanie Babies!!! The upstairs tree will be decorated with handcrafted ornaments made by the Simon 's daughter - in - law. Rebecca's, formerly Uncommon Scents, 300 Second Avenue, is housed in The Lafayette Mall. The Lafayette Hotel was built in 1927-28 by George Tabit at a cost of $185,000.00. The three-story Georgian structure construct: r. T he first occupants of 57 Court Street were D. s.

Rebeeca's (ronnetiy Uncommon Scents) 300 Second Avenue Rebecca's, formerly Uncommon Scents, 300 Second Avenue, is housed in The Lafayette Mall. The Lafayette Hotel was built in 1927-28 by George Tabil at a cost of $185,000.00. The three-story Georgian structure constructed of red brick, with white stone trim, contained 90 outside windows lhat had 1,500 panes of glass. At the time, it was considered the best built, The First Baptist Church 1100 Fourth Avenue The First Baptist Church has traced its history back to the 1850's when it was called The Original Baptist Church. In March of 1gg2, the church purchased the former site (Locust Street) for $1,000.00. In the spring of 11185, the building was enclosed and roofed. John D. Rockefeller .contributed $500.00 with the stipulation that the building be dedicated free of debt. The building was completed in 1886 at a cost of $6,000.00 and the first service was held in that facility on January 28,1887. In 1994, the owners of a 20-acre tract of land, formerly the Gallipolis Golf Course, offered an option to purchase their property. Shortly after the purchase, a building committee was formed to pursue plans to construct a facility which would house church services and provide classroom facilities for the Ohio Valley Christian School. In the spring of 1997, groundbreaking services were held and construction began. The building was designed by Panich, Noel and Dawson.of Athens, Ohio and was constructed by Teamway Builders pf Greenville, Soulh Carolina. On Novembe( 15,1998, the Firsl Baptisl Oturch held dedication services for its new 32,000 square fool building. The total cost of the project was $2.7 million. The lovely 700- seal sanctuary features a center aisle with natural red oak pews and woodwork and a wrap around balcony with seating capacity for 140. The focal point of the auditorium is the stained glass window that was moved from lhe former church sanctuary. The windoW depicts the scene of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. The building also includes 13 classrooms, a fellowship room, conference room, various offices and a narthex. The church will be beautifully decorated with live poinsettias. lighted . garland and an eight-foot tree graced wilh gold ornaments.

LaTwanya Larry is not a career soldier. The fresh-faced 22-year-old doesn't even plan to re-enlist after her current four-year term is up. Still, Larry- not so grizzled vet· eran - is the first military person ·many would-be recruits meet when they wander into a recruiting office or stop by the Army .booth at a career fair. The Army hopes young soldiers will be able to relate better to those considering enlisting. In August, the Army began using corporals to deal with new recruits, whose average age is 21. Historical· ly, recruiters have been in their mid· 30s with a rank of sergeant first class. or hig her. That can be intimidating to someone fresh out of high sc hool. " It helped a lot that she was my age , for real ," said Marcus Watson, 19, who stopped in to the College Park office to schedule an entry test with Larry for later in the week. " I was already interested in the Army. and she helped me make my decision final .'' · That's what Army otlicials want to hear. especially given the shortfall the military is facing. Last year's Army recruiting goal was 74.500. and only 68.2 10 signed up. "We need a constant stream of manpower. ·· sai d Doug Smith. spokesman for the U.S . Army Re cruiting Command in Fort Knox .

The program is a spinoff of a sim· ilar approaches taken by the Navy and the Air Force. which arc also facing manpower shortages in a hooming economy where qualified applicants have their pick o(jobs. During the 1998 fiscal year, the Navy 's recruiting goal was 55,321 sailors when only 48,429 signed up. Recruiting younger recruiters hasn't been difficult.

By opening his own businesses, Boulud put himself in the manager's role, which he has found "is not as creative as actual hands-on cooking, but it is necessary when running a restaurant."

I asked a waiter if this was a typical lunch group, and he replied that the women are frequent dinner patrons but are more subdued when with their husbands. My meal was great. At lunch, they have two fixed priced menus -two courses for $29 and three courses for $36. By New York standards, this is a bargain for the level of cuisine and ambiance.

Record holder By JAY CALDWELL GALLIPOLIS - Social Security is a lot ltke the ozone layer - we all know it's there now and we count on it being there in the future . Yet most people don't know much more about it than that. Here's a shortlist of inter· esting facts about Social Security: • Social Security benefits do not automatically stan coming in the mail the first day of normal retirement age. They must be applied for. The eaSIest way is to set up an appointment with the local Social Security office or call 1-800· 772·1213. • To get an official statement of all the earnings recorded in your Social Security account, an estimate of your current disability and death benefits, and an estimate of future retirement benefits, fill out Form No. 7004 Request for Earnings & Benefit Statement, obtainable at your local office. • If you do not find or correct errors in our Social Security record l"llhin three years, they become part of your permanent record. Therefore. you might want to check on them every three years 01 so. • You can work dunng relircfucnl, but 1f you earn too much, it will reduce the size of the benefits you are recetving. The limits on such earnmgs are currently $9 ,600 below age 65 and $15,500 between age 65 and 69 You can work after age 69 as much as you want With benefits unreduced. although they become taxable if you earn too much • You can mcrease the size of your rellremenl beneht by delaymg collecting and remaining on the job past full retirement age. This higher benefit comes from e•tra earnings toward your account and a credit awarded for this patience, ranging from 3 ~rcent to 8 percent of your benefit, depending on your date of blflh. • For people born after 1937, nor· mal retirement age will increase. For example, 1f you were boni in 1940, full retirement age is 65 and stx months; in 1950, it is 66. Anybody born in 1960 or later will be eligible at age 67. • Social Secunty dtsabihty benefits do not continue ' past normal retirement age. Retirement benefits must then be applied for and replace dJSabihty benefits. • There is a limit to the amount of benefits that can be paid on each Social Security record called the Maximum Family Benellt, generally around 150 to 180 percent of the worker's benefit. If this hmit is exceeded, the family benefits are reduced . • Ex -spouses, widows and divorced w1dows may all be eligible for benefits on a spouse's record. Provided the requirements are met, they may even be collecting on the same worker's record. • There are two Social Security trust funds une used to finance reurcmenl and survtvor benefits and the other used to finance the disabii' Y program. Money not used to pay current benefits is invested only in U.S. Government Treasury bonds. Social Secunty is a significant resource for many retired individuals. Spend some 11me with your financial planner learning about what pan these benefits should play in your retirement planning future.'

' . \~I ' COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Like many other. farmers during harvest time, Marilyn Adams kept her 11-year-old son home from school because the family needed another hand on their Iowa farm.· ".We gave him an adult responsibility and left him alone," she told The Columbus Dispatch for a story Sunday. "He was so proud to be trusted by his father that day, but in reality, he was not capable of doing what we thought he coidd." Her son was killed while supervising the loading of a grain wagon. Her husband, Darrell, found him unconscious in the wagon, and he was rushed to a Jjospital where he died a few hours later. A year after her son Keith 's,death in 1986, Adams and her family form!=d Farm Safety 4 Just Kids, a national organization that seeks to educate parents and youngsters, "so that no other parent would have to bear that kind of grief," she said. The farming industry depends on child labor, and despite b.eing one of the nation's most dangerous, it's exempt from many child. labor laws, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. · As many as 300 children and adolescents on farms nationwide are killed each year in accidents involving machinery or livestock. From 1978 to 1997, at least 641 Ohioans died as a result of farm-related injuries, according to Ohio Department of Heallh death records. In 1978, 15 people younger than 20 were killed on Ohio farms. In 1997, only 011e died. At least three children were killed in farmrelated incidents last year. 1\vo have died this year in central an<l south-central Ohio, though statewide numbers won't be available until next year. Between 800,000 and 1.5 million children work in agriculture, according 'to statistics from the U.S. Department of Labor. No laws restrict the number of hours a child · living on a family farm can work, and there are few restrictions on what kind of work they can do, Adams said. Farming is the only occupation in which an 8-year-old, such as liiCob Pearce Detwiler of West Liberty, Ohio, ~ould help his grandfather, John Detwiler, with the corn harvest. Jacob died Oct. 5 when he fell into a grain truck and suffocated before anyone realized he was missing, according to incident reports. Farmers oppose regulations on their activities and th9SC of their children, said Greg Field, a farmer near LaRue in Marion County. He examined his own safety practices after his 2-year-old nephew, Ma< Kasmenn, nearly drowned in a hog manure pit " Farmers would have a different view than ·the politicians would because kids are a big part of getting the work done on a farm, " Field said. . Farm parents get their children involved in the operation for a number of reasons, said Dee Jepsen, extension associate for the Agricultural Safety and Health Department at Ohio State University. They want to pass along their tradition of hard work, responsibility and the satisfaction of accomplishment. But too frequently, tliey assign tasks that are beyond their children's abilities, she said. "There would be fewer injuries and deaths if parents learned more about how a child develops before they assign chores," said Mary Fleming, an occupational-health nurse and farm-safety researcher at Grady Memorial Hospital in Delaware, Ohio. "Many parents don't realize that machinery is more complicated and dangerous than when they. were kids." Organizations, su~h as the Ohio Farm Bureau, have developed safety programs over the past decade to reach stud~nts in schools, 4H Clubs and Future Farmers of America groups. Safety experts hope that by focusing on children, a safer future is possible.· . "I know from hard experience th·at it's really hard to get ldults to change their behavio~," said Sue Oberhauser, a real-estate agent, w1fe of a Perry Cqunty farmer and a volunteer safety coordinator for the Ohio Farm Bureau. "Farmers are too stubborn to change 'their habits." DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - Counti es across Ohio plan to launch state -funded social service programs designed to keep people off welfare, a move official s say will usher in the new yeal, as well as an unprecedented era of social work. The state has set aside $300 million from its welfare surplus for counti es to create prev ention program s for pe ople who no longer receive federal as sistance . · " I think thi s is sort of a wat ershed event ," Cuyahoga County Admini str ator Tom Hayes told the Dayton Daily News for a story pub! ished Sunday. " We went from efficiently proce ss ing payments to efficiently getting peopl e off welfare," he said. " Now we're trying to create programs to keep people from ever getting on (assistance) to begin with." Cuyahoga County is preparing to spend $38 .9 million in the next 18 months on social service programs, which were made possible by fede ral and state laws enacted within the past few years , Hayes said . Since federal welfare reform , in which Congress promised Ohio $728 million a year in block grants through 2002, caseloads have declined rapidly . Statewide, through September of this year, th e number of people receiving public assistance had declined to 247,798. That is. the lowest level since 1969 and 66 percent lower than in 1992, the newspaper reported. '1\s assistance payments decline, the state is saving millions in its federal block grant money. That pot is about $668 million and e<pected to grow to $922 million by July 2001. . The Legislature is allowing counties to spend some of that mon e y on socalled prevention, retention and con tingency programs. The counties' all ocations are based on how many pe ople in each county are at or below 200 per - / I '· ,..., cent of th e fed eral poverty level. In Montgo mery County, the Human Services Department plans to · spend more than $22 million on more than 30 new · programs during the next 18 . months . "I have be e n in this business for 24 year s, and I hav e never seen the time wh en we have be en able to give people so much he! p," said Danella Graves , Montgomery County's human services dire ctor. "I tell you the truth, I didn ' t think we' d eve r get to here." Montgo mery Count y has th e state's iourth -high est population below 200 perc ent of the poverty level , with 157,337. That makes it eligibl e for $15 . 1 million beginning J-an . 1 and ending June 30, 2001 under the new state program. But befor e Montgomery and other counties get the money, they must prov e th ey are going to spend at least 90 percent of their regular welfare allocation . They also must submit detailed plans about the programs the money will fund. The state's program might seem golden, but officials are worried about just how long the era will last. Congress made . the deal only through 2002 . No one knows what money will be available to states in 2003 .. Joel Potts of the state Department of Human Services said that solving the welfare problem is "not just about · spending money on programs, it ' ~ a complete change in philosophy." "If you want to address poverty," Potts said, "yo,u're better off htlpina people who are already employed , Histori cally , we ' ve waited until people . are alr eady on the system and then tried to figure o\lt how to get them 0 ff." Changing that philosophy, he said will tak e more th i10 just four or fiv~ years .
