"Open Our Eyes"
By Bonnie Shiveley
I did not want to hear the ophthalmolog ist say that I had glaucoma. I didn 't want to be blind. I di dn't want the inconvenience of ·usin g

eye drops t~i ce a day.
So I cried - picked up my prescription and tried to remember to
use it morning and ni ght. I would
forget, then I couldn't remember if I
did or didn 't. Some of you can idcn-

Fin all y. I made a note of eac h
time I used them. That worked and I

Today my eyes arc still in the safe

medicat ion that allows me to enjoy
seeing hi s beautiful creation, and for
my ophthalm olog ist who keeps
close watch so my eyes will be
healthy a long time.

"silent disease," glaucoma. About .
half don' t know they have it because
they don't notice any sy mptoms.
If you haven't had an eye exam
recently, please have one ri ght away.
Your eyes are worth it!
Glaucoma can be treated successfully. It often docs not lead to blindness for patients who follow their
treatm ent regimen stri ctl y before
vision is affec ted.
There are different kinds of glau-

coma and !lifferent treatme nts. My
eye drops prevent the pres sure
buildup which damages the optic
nerve that tran smits visual information to my brain. I am extremely
thankful to have good vision.

By KEVIN KELLY
.
Tlme•Senllnel Staff
GALLIPOLIS -This year 's general fund budget for
the city of Gallipolis will include personnel layoffs, City
Manager John LeBlanc said Friday.
Following an executive session Thursday, the City
Commission returned Ia a review session with revised
numbers calling for personnel reductions in city depart·
ments, LeBlanc explained. A final total on general fund
expenditures was not immediately available.
The commission voles on the first reading of an ordinance approving the budget on Tuesday.
LeBlanc declined to say how many employees will
be affected because those workers will be notified of termination on Monday.
He added that he had already briefed presiden!S of the

repeated destruction and rebuilding along Ohio rivers. The funds
were made available under the disaster declaration issued by Presi denl Clinton for the Ohio River
flooding last March.
Matching funds were provided
by the state through the genera}
fund and ODOD's Community
Housing Improvement Program.
Of the $618,087 awarded to
Salisbury Township, FEMA will
contribute $231,783, phio EMA
will provide $231,782 in matching
funds and ODOD will contribute
$146,722 in CHIP funds .
The township will . contribute
$17,800 as in -kind demolition
work. By agreeing to participate in
the mitigation project, the land
purchased by the township will
remain clear of structures that
could be threatened by future
flooding.
According to the trustees, 19
flood-prone homes in the townshiip will be elevated above the
floodplain, and one will be purchased, demolished and the area
left as open space. Three homes
will be flood-proofed .
The location of the project is
near Willow Creek and Ball Run,
north of State Route 124 and SR
143, west of U.S. 33.
GALLIPOLIS - A local orga nization, the Area Agency of Aging

of State, County and Municipal Employees, and the Fraternal Order of Police - about the layoffs.
The layoffs are effe ~tivc March 31, the day before the
budget becomes official once the ordinance passes both
readings, LeBlanc said.
Although the city brought a $625,000 general fund
carryover into this year, the increasing cost of operating
services and doing business threatened to reduce the
reserve to less than $50,000' if all of this year's budget
requesls were granted.
Commissioners were in agreement the carryover
going into 1999 should be around $350,000, necessitat·

employees was developed, commissioners had to
consider job reductions, LeBlanc said.
"Our problem is, the cost of services is going up,
but our revenue is not increasing," LeBlanc said.
"As we 're trying to improve services and do some
of the projects we want to, that's money coming out
of the general fund and we don't' have i_t."
LeBlanc said the city has to tackle such immediate projects like the Chillicothe Road lift station repair,
estimated to cost in the $250,000-plus range, as well as
plan for an annexation move, downtown ~evitalization,
the Eastern Avenue access road and other mfrastructure

COLUMBUS _ While some school

ratories of San Juan Capistrano, Cahf., reported Its findings around 8 p.m. Friday.
.
"Everything came out clear," Buckley sard. .
Buckley said five different samples were sent m for
testing; one from a spigot in Logan's classroom, one
from the water heating system, and three from roof
leaks with two of those collected earlier by teachers in
the building.
However, with the school eliminated as one source
of the bacteria, the question remains: Where did Loga n
contract the disease?
"It could come from anywhere," Buc~lcy said .
In the last two weeks, Buckley has studied numerous
articles and reports on Legionnaire's Disease.
"It's scary," he said. "One report said 40 percent or
more of the adult population have antibodies again st it,
meaning they've been exposed to it."
Legionnaires' Disease is so named because it first
appeared in 1978 at a convention of American Legi on
members in Philadelphia. Twenty-nine people died
from the outbreak, which was later blamed on water
stored for the hotel's HVAC system.
·Officials said the water carrying the bacteria is generally heated water between 95 and 115 degrees Fahrenheit.
The disease generally causes severe flu and pneumania-type symptoms as the bacteria is ingested through
the respiratory system. The Ohio Department of Health
reported 154 cases of Legionnaires' Disease in 1996,
the latest year for which figures are available.
A teacher's aide in Parkersburg, W.Va., was recently
diagnosed with the infection, and a public meetin g was
held there last week to answer questions from the publie about the safety of the students at Blennerhassett
Junior High School.
Health officials there are giving the same re sponse to
parents' concerns th at those here have given: the likeli hood of infection due to roof leaks is "remote."

manager said.
"We did everything we can do, anything we could
come up with to meet the objective," he said.
Departments will have time to absorb or plan for the
reductions, LeBlanc added.
"They're trying to make it as painless as a reduction
can be," he noted . "If there was any other way we could
have done it, we would have."

148-year-old courtroom receives much-needed facelift
By JIM FREEMAN
Tlmea·Stntlnel Stiff
POMEROY - Meigs County's 148-year-old courtroom
received a much-needed facelift recently.
All the work was done "in house" with the exception of
blinds and carpeting, according to court Bailiff Michael Canan,
who said the project followed renovations to lhe jury room.
"[ noticed it was drab and depressing," he said of the jury
room.
In the jury room , Canan and other court employees pai.nted
the room and replaced old ceiling tiles, added a small refngerator and a coffee pot, and put some photos on the walL
"It made it look inore like a living room ... instead of a dun·
geon," he said.
.
.
.
· "We made it look good for very little money, so we decrded
to do the courtroom next, " Canan explained.
In the courtroom, Canan and other court employees painted
the trim and walls, covering the "crummy-looking" paneling,
refinished the bench and counsel tables, and installed a wheelchair ramp making the witness stand, counsel tables and bench
accessible to handicapped people.
The carpet was then laid and Venetian blinds installed .replacing garish, outdated curtains.
.
Canan then installed a new state seal behind the bench and
is now in the process of installing wooden letters reading

"Meigs County Court of Common Pleas."

Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON- Sooner or tater. independent counsel Kenneth
Starr must decide whether !O cast his
subpoena nel for the biggest catch of
all - President Clinton. Legal advice
is divided on whether he has the
power to bring Clinton before the
grand jury - and whether such a
move would be wise.
There would be advantages and
risks for both if the prosecutor summoned the president. Some legal
uuthorities say Starr would have little to gain. especially if Clinton is a
potential target of his investigation.
Targets are people who have been
notified they may be indicted. But it
is questionable whether a sining~
president can be indicted. The
impeachment process exists as an

UNITED NATIONS - Russia.
China and France moved Friday to
head off any Security Council resolution that would trigger an automatJc 'military response if Iraq violates an
agreement to open all suspected
weapon sites to U.N . inspectors.
The U.S.-backed resolution proposed by Britain and Japan would

if Iraq violates the accord, which Sec~iary-General Koti Annan signed in
B11ghdad on Monday.
, That phrase was softened from

.. severest consequences" in an earlier draft to make it more acceptable to
the rest of the counciI.
The inspectors must cenify that
Iraq has destroyed its weapons of

But diplomaiS from China, Russm
and France said they would not sup-

door to automatic military action.
The1r resistance raised doubts that Ihe
resolution in Its current form would
pass. America's U.N. ambassador,
Bill Richardson. said he would not
a~cept a weaker Uocumenl.
Diplomats from Ru ssia and
France said they could accept a resolution only if il clearl y spelled out
that the council would have to authorize military action. A diplomat frum
China said an} implication of automatic action was unacceptable.
If the resolution gave the Security Council the authority to approve

military acti on againsl Iraq. uny one
of the live permanen1 members could
veto such action .
Brllam was lakmg the lead in
drafting the resolution to back the
accord An nan reached with Iraqi
Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz.

FBI looks to link bombings to suspect
WASHINGTON (AP) - Investigators are trying to determine whether
Eric Raben Rudolph, charged with bombing a Birmingham, Ala., abortion
clinic, was in Atlanta at the time of three earlier bombings in that city. officials say.
The reconstruction of Rudolph's movements comes as top Justice and
Treasury Department and FBI officials debate FBI Director Louis Frech's
eff&lt;,m to unify the Atlanta and Birmingham investigations.
.Investigators do not have enough evidence to call Rudolph a suspect in
th~? three Atlanta bombings, a senior federal agent on !he Atlanta case emphasized Friday.
'Links between Rudolph and the Atlanta bombings so far could be merely coincidences. said the agent, who requested anonymity. " But in this business if you can pile up enough coincidences, sometimes you get somewhere."
the agent said.
Rudolph, a 31-year-old pan-time carpenter, is a fug1tive charged with la'l
month's Birmingham clinic bombing that killed a security guard. Agents are
hunting for him in rural western Nonh Carolina.
Investigators have been trying to learn if Rudolph was in Atlanta when
bombs exploded at Centennial Olympic Park in July 1996, at an abortion clinic in January 1997 and at a gay nightclub in February 1997. Agents hypothesize that the same person or people were behind all three.
Investigators have not been able to learn where Rudolph was at any of
those times. the agent said.
"This is a person who makes exceptional effons to preserve personal privacy," the agent said. " He does no banking. used no credit . has no loans.
He leaves no trail. "

.Drug errors kill outpatients
By TIM FRIEND
USA TODAY
Deaths fro111 prescription drug
errors increased at a higher rate over
a w :year period than any other
cause of death except AIDS . shows a
study out Friday (Feb. 28).
)he rapid rise in drug-e rror
deaths occurred primarily in people
treated as outpatients. which include
those undergoing one-day surgeries
and emergency room visits.
Sociologist David Phillips. University of California at San Diego.
says the ri.se in medication -error
deaths parallel s the rapid shift from
mpatient hospital care w outpatient
care.
"Presumabl~ this is happening in
pari because quality control over the
drugs people take and how they take
them in the outpatient setting is
lower than quality control in the
inpatient setting," Phillips says.
"Our main conclusion is that hy
shifting patients to the outpatient
setting. there has been an increase in
death s caused by medication

NEW YORK (AP) - The royal bidding war for the contents of the Paris
home of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor is over and the thousands of
items brought in more than $23 million, dwarfing presale estimates.
The nine-day auction ended Friday, and the top seller was a portrait of the
young Edward, Prince of Wales . by Sir Alfred Muhnings. The painting valued at $600,000 to $800,000 before the sale- fetched $2.3 million .
A smaller surprise was the auction's final bid , for a painting by American
artist Charles Baskerville that sold for $19,550 against a presale estimate of
$100 10 $I 50 ..said Sotl1eby 's spokeswoman Katherine Holt.

Camp owners who refuse to deal
with the services won't speak on the

"They feel powerless in the face
of the private consultants. They

will be sent to their competitors,"
says Adam Weiss of the Amcncan

The chapter offers a si milar service. run by the camp trade organization. It gives fa111ilies the names of

If you suffer from dizziness or loss of balance, you are
not alone. 70% of all persons age 65 and over will su_ffer
from dizziness at least once in their lifetime. Complaints
of dizziness are among the leading reasons patients
consult their physicians.
Now there is available locally a simple, quick, and
acc~rate way to diagnose the cause of balance
disorders . Most balance disorders are caused by
problems with the vestibular system . These patients can
now benefit from the same therapy being used to treat
patents successfully at Mayo Clintc, Johns Hopkins , and
other leadjng medical facilities.
For complete testing and rehabilitation for balance
disorders associated with inner ear problems, please

You may think that stealing cable TV is no
big deal. Fact is, much like shoplifting, cable
theft forces everyone's prices higher. It
takes money that could otherwise be
invested in better programming, system
.improvements and even in the community.
And it's a felony offense 'that could carry
hefty fines and even jail time.

are used as a sound barrier irt high

Judiciary Commiuee Chairman
Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and Sen.

Since then, courts have asked

Because water heaters both heat
and store water, the rate at which the
water is heated and the capacity of
the tank affect the supply ot hot water
:at your fix tu res.
The speed at which a unit heats
water is called tis recovery rate. This
figure indicates the amount of water
in gallons 'that can be heated to 100
F8F in one hour. Once you draw
water faster than it 's heated. the temperature drops. However. because the
-tank stores hot water, its capac ity also
, affects the ongoing availability at the
tap.
The appropriate capacity and
- recovery rate of a water heater
depend on how much hot water your
' home demands and the type of heater
you choose. Typica lly. heaters with
low recovery rates have a high tank

WASHINGTON -Calling Ohio
state legislators "cowardly... a member of Ohio's congressional delega·

do something himself about public
school needs in Ohio.
Rellecling the increased interest in
education issues among the Clinton
administration and members of Congress. Rep. Ted Strickland. DLucasville. is taking a survey of
school building conditions in the 6th

He sent uul close 1;:&gt; 250 survey

The last such survey of Ohio
schools was taken nearly 10 years

While Strickland has notlinished
· tabulating the results. he e&lt;pects
: them to show a definite need for help
in obtaining adequate classroom
space, wiring lo the Internet. removing asbestos and dealing with other
. facilities needs.
There are federal grants already
: available 10 help deal with many of
. those problems and he plans 10 help
· schools gel them. he said.
"We are likely lo idenlify schools
that have very significant problems
and may not be aware tlf~l even under
eltisting programs they can gel some
help.'' Strickland said.
In addition. Strickland said. the
survey results likely will generate fur·
ther support for the education pro·
gram of President Clinton, who is
proposing to help low -income
schools nationwide with the linanc·

Ohio Roundtable files motion
against high court hearing case
COLUMBUS ( AP) - A motion has been filed in response to the slate's
request 10 have the Ohio Supreme Court decide whether a proposed salestax increase should appear on the May 5 primary ballot.
The motion.liled Friday in Perry County Common Pleas Court, claims
the stale's request is moot and premature. h asks Judge Linton D. Lewis
Jr. 10 reject the request.
. The request was tiled Feb. 20. one day after the Ohio Roundtable. a
Solon-based. conservative advocacy group, tiled a lawsuit seeking to block
the lax increase from going 10 voters.
The gropp, which filed the lawsuit in Franklin County Common Pleas
Court. argues lhallhe ballot issue is illegal and the stale wants the Ohio
Supreme Court to hear the case.
The proposed sales-lax increase would raise the tax from 5 percent to
6 percent and generate more than $i.l"billion annually. The money would
be used 10 meet the Supreme Court's order 10 fix the way the slate pays
for education. Half of the money would go to schools and the rest would
go to property-tax cuts for homeowners.
In his motion Frid~y. Nicholas A. Piuner, a Columbus altomey for a
· group opposed 10 the existing stale .&gt;ehool-funding system. said the state's
request is moot because il already asked the Supreme Coun lo hear the
case.
The state also asked that other potential lawsuits about the school funding issue be heard by the Supreme Court. Piuner argued in his motion thai
the request is premature because the court must wail until lawsuits are
filed 10 make that decision.
In the Ohio Roundtable's suit, the .group claims that lawmakers misused a 147-year-old provision in the Ohio Constitution toget the issue to
the voters.

The public defender's office today
asked the appeals coun 10 dismiss the
case. saying that Marbley\ order is
not appealable. II also opposed the
stale\ request to overturn the slay the
execution.

The issue was pending today
before appeals Judges Cornelia
Kennedy. James Ryan and Eugene

But no maner what the appeals
court decides. the case likely is headed 10 the U.S. Sup.reme Court for a
tinal say.

Lawmakers call for Hussein's
removal as an end to threat
WASHINGTON (APl- While war with Iraq has been averted for now.
the crisis will nul end until Saddam Hu"ein is removed from power. law·
makers from both parties say.
" I think we haYe got to change the objective and say that ouUtation is
going lobe on the side of liberating the people of Iraq from·their prisons or
from !he,terror of his dictatorship." Sen. Bob Kerrey. D-Neb:, said Sunday
on NBC's " Meet rhe Press."
"As long as Saddam Hussein is in power. we will be faced with this chal·
lenge of his unending zeal to acquire and use weapons of mass destruction,"
Sen. John McCain. R-Ariz .. agreed on lhe same program.
The Clinton administration accepted. with the caveat it reserves the right
to strike militarily if Saddam reneges on his word, the agreement reached a
we~k ago between U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan and Saddam that
opens Iraqi "presidential· sites" to international weapons inspectors.
But there has been lillie confidence on Capitol Hill in the viability of the
accord. and Republicans in panicular have derided Annan for saying he could
do business with Saddam.
"Saddam has been definitely strengthened by what has happened because
he now is saying that he defeated the United States one more time," Sen.
Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said on NBC.
.
Kerrey and Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., among advocates of a long-term
carn.paign to overthrow Saddam, said the Iraqi leader should also be brought
up before the war crimes tribunal in The Hague. "If we were to make effons
to topple him." Specter said on CBS' "Face the Nation," '' we would cer·
tainly be wilhin our rights in a much broader way since he has been declared
a war criminal, !lfid perhaps through a trial tried in absentia."
