WASHINGTON . - Democrats
are gamely insisting lhat President
Clinton h8s not been hurt by revelations of big-money donors sleeping
over in lhe Lincoln Bedroom or the
broader fund-raising scandal. Out of
public view, it's a different pictur'e.
An angry Clinton calls Democrats,
urging them not to join his opponents
in seeking an independent counsel's
investigation. He testily complains of
false stories he'~ had to endure.
Worry and frustration is evident ,
among the president's staff Ill' well.

Newspaper scoops self to get
the word out on bombing story

•

I·

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -· It
was an unpiecedented~ move by a
news~per - a blockbuster story
put on the Internet: hours before
printed editions were on·the street.
The decision by The Dallas
Morning News was to report what it
said was a jailhouse confessi'on by
Oklahoma City bombing suspec·t
Timothy McVeigh on its World
Wide Web site Friday afternoon seven hours before print publication.
Was the paper trying to avoid an
injunction, or just gelling the story
out as quickly as possible? Depends
on who you talk to.
·
McVeigh's attorney, Stephen
Jones, quickly complained to U.S.
District Judge Richll!d Matsch, say· ing the report violated the spirit of a
gag orde_r against p8f1ies in the case.
·
"They put it on the Internet
·
because tbey thought we we~ going
to come over here and try . to get a
temporary injunction. They wanted
to once again slap Judge Matsch and
his ~rders across the face and preempt it," Jones said at the Denver
courthouse.
Ralph Langer, executive vicepresident and editor of the News:
said the gag order didn 'Upply to the
paper. He said Jones made no threats
about any mtrainiog orders when
they interviewed \tim . friday for
their story.
"We put the story on the web site
because it was, in our view, extraordinarily .important and we got the
. story finis.bed this afternoon and we
felt we ought to publish, so we published," Langer said.
·
'Having access to the kind of
immetljacy only raqio and television
knew before is heady and difficult.
The decision to release a story to the
world hours before print editions are
out- and in time for local competitors to match it- is one newspapers
alld their often separate Web ·edi-.
lions struggle with.
"Did we scoop ourselves? I don't
think so," said Dale Peskin, the
paper's assistant managing editor
for new media. "This is a new age.
.

We're all dealing with new opportu·
nities to tell stories in lots of different ways and gel them out there
wben they're most vital 11nd valuable."
In this case, ·what the Morning
News gave .up in print, it mo~ than
made up in national attention, said
· Steve Johnson, managing editor for ·
MSNBC.
"It clearly gave them a way to
Jelthe story out on a Friday evening
mstead of bemg buried on a Saiurday paper, which is the lowest circuIation of the week. Instead, it led on
the Nightly News. So it worked," he
said from.the MSNBC news room in
Redmond, Wash.
Most papers· wouldn't have made·
that decision, said Elizabeth Osder,
Content Development }lditor for
The New York Times on the Web.
"The bottom line is that if we had
a story like.t!Jis, at that point! don't
think we'd scoop the paper. We'd be
checking on it and working on _it
until right up to the last minute.
Rig~.t now we're still led by the
paper, because we need their lime
and the expertise," she said.
Most newspapet Web sites use
Associated Press cop)' . to cover
breaking news until their print edilions
out, not wanting to scoop
themselves. Osder predicts that will
change.
''I think in the end that's part of
the evolutionary process of becoming more integrated with the newspaper. Right now there's not a seamless integration with our news room
and The New York Times news
room. As we become more closely
aligned and involved with their
process, it will happen."
.
Not that Osder or anyone at the
Times had actually seen the Moming News story. Its computers were
so ove)'Whelmed by an onslaugpt of
users that most me~ly got a "try.
back later" message.
"It's another minor problem in
this business. If you're very successful, you fail," Johnson said.

Prosecutors have ~stimated that

Glenn 'uneasy' about Clinton's fund-raising

gated."

Glenn entered into a wide-ranging discussion of
money and politics as partisan baUles continue in the
Senate over the scope lind ,funding of cainpaigli
finance inquiries:
·
,
The Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, on
Sen. John Glenn · . which Glenn is ranking minority member, ·is sup~
. 'posed to launch hearings soon into fund-raising.related to the 1996 presidential campaign.
,
But Democrats also want an investigation of congressional cmnpaign
fund-raising, which Republicans oppose.
.
Mem~rs from the t-ro parties also are squabbling over the amount of
funding the committee should receive .to investigate such matters.
·,
In connection with the Senate investigation, Gleim announced lici is
rewming $1,600 in campaign money he ~cei~ed .in the "1980s from Liitle ·
Reck attorney Mark Grobmyer, who has beeri subpoenaed by the committee
, and may appear before it as a witoess.
·
Even though the contriblJtion was legal. Glenn said he wanted to return it
because-of !tis position on the committee.. .
Glenn, a four-term member who announced last week that he would not run
again in· J998. said Congress had bener reform political campaigns soon or
risk alienating more people, especially the young, from the political process.
A good place to start, he sald,·is with the Federal Election Commission, .
which has been much criticized of late as being a toothless tiger when it
comes tO policing federal elections. .
.
"We (need to) look at the Federal Election Commission and either make
it operable and workable Of do away it and set up something that will be
somebody that monjtors Congress," he said.
.
_
·
Glenn lidded, "Congress will never do a thorough investigation on
itself."
- The substitute agency, he said, would have.to be set up to be independent
•
enough so that it could "without fear.or favor, investigate Congress."
'oie FEC, Glenn said, has never been given the money -to adequately
carry out its watchdog role over elections.

Another area that needs examination is the .role of tax-exempt erganizatiOIII in the politicll proceu.

By DAVID JONES
Florida Tod1y
GAINESVILLE, Fla. While some people consider
football ·a problem in meeting
gender equity, it's reganled as a
major part of the solution for
Florida.
The football team generated
more than $22 millioa in 1,99596, with lillie' more' than $3
million in expenses. .
At the same time, women's
sports had revenue .of less lhan
$200,000 but expenses were
close to the same $3 million the
football team spent.
.
While the sO:Called ''football
factories" ·are ge,uing the rap
for threatening Title .IX gender
equity laws, lhe sport actually is
helping Florida build one of the
best women's programs in the
country.
. The soccer team. just two
years old', already has reached
the NCAA Tournament, and
plays on a . facility that
underwent $1.5 miJ]jon in
improvements.
. .
. The women's softball team,
which is playing its fii'SI season
· inside a new $2.6 million
sllidium, was funded by football
money.
·
While Florida's women's
program annually ranks among
the best overall in the
Southeastern Conference and .
the , nati'on, Foley said the
attempt to reach. equality is far
from over; ·
·
·
·
Florida does not rank in the
nation'.s top 10, as far as having
a high percentage of fel)laic
athletes per enrollmenl, but
annually ' ranks among the SEC
leaders and has continued to
climb near ti!c lop nationally.

Gannctl Ncws Scrv1ce
.computerassisted analysis of spending IUid
athletic plll'ticipation during the
19.95-96 school year.
Tlie data discloses thai while
most Division 1-A schools finally
have taken steps to provide-women
with more athletic.opportunities and
greater finaricial suppcirt, the
NCAA's major college sports departments generally remain male bas· lions and the. place where football
and men's baskelball'reign supreme.
In addition, the analysis raises
questions about claims by a growing
number of scho()lil lhat they have
been required to drop men's non-revenue generating ·programs because
their departments can't affoid to just
simply add women's programs to
achieve gender equity. On average,
schools are spending close lo
$70,000 per male basketball player
and $30,000 per football player
combined compared to .less lhan
$8,000 on all o~her male athletes.
Specifically, here is what the.
analysis, bas~ on federally mandated spending reports from J 07 of
the II 0 members of NCAA Division
(,A, found: ·

·
Under lhose regulations, .a school
is considered . in compliance with
federal law when the perceiuage .of
female athletes is comparable to the
· percentage of undergraduBie women
enrolled at the school.
Figures provided by the reports
show that there is an average 16 percent ·gap between the numbers of
women participating in sports compared to . the numbers of women

. · In Meigs County, the fact is .
demand for the hunter education j
course far outstrips our ability .to
conduct the classes. Unfortunately,
this means soll)e kids who want to ·
hunt may not get a chance to do so,
or may wind up taking a class elsewhere.
· Lately, every class we have held
locally was filled to _capacity in only
a clay or two. While we enjoy knowing the interest is QUI there, we
invariably wind up turning some
· · youngsters away.
Plans call on mustering a platoon
or so of instructors and then holding
the classes on a bimonthly or quar. terly basis. That way, no single
instructor winds of up carrying too
large a load. Remember, we are talking about volunteers here.
If you have never talcen the hunter
education course, or your memory
needs a little jog, the course consists
of I 0 hours dedicated to hunting and '
firearm safety, wildlife management,
firearm basics, ammunition, gun
handling; archery, muzzleloading,
first aid, marksmanship and wildlife
ideniification. Throughout, . the
prospective hunters are drilled on
hunting ethics and their responsibil- · ·
ities to the landowner, game, other
hunters and themselves. ,
So if you want to help pass down
our hunting' heritage and pass along
your experience to younger generatiQns, this may prove to be a good
opportunity.
Teaching the class is not difficult
and instructors are not expected to be
experts in every subject. As .a rule,
two or more insttuctors are present
at every session and switch off fre.
·quently as the situation or curriculum
demands.
l know many hunters in this area
have a lifetime of knowledge they
can pass along.
If you're interested in this non·
paying but vety·rewarding position,
give me a call at992-2155 (office).

Sir An~w Lloyd Webber wanted, to rearrange his art collection, so he
sold a pair of pai~tings to the museum for an undisclosed price. The composer said·it's the ti~t time he's sold any of his collection.
"These monumental canvases occupy a space in my hall whicll, because

The 10;-foot-by-12-foot oils by Sir Edward Burne-Jones were painted in

originally were displayed in St. John's Church, Toi'quay, a seaside town in

CEO emphasizes global growth
The normal -representatives from
business publications and chemical
trade press were on hand, but so were
reporters from China, Japan,. India
and Brazil.
The reason for their interest was
apparent from the start. "We are commilled to a global presence, m particular to pursuing opponunities for
new business in high-growth, emefJing markets where historically we
have not had a major presence," Krol
said during his ope 0ing remarks.
Krol has outlined an aggressive
growth .plan for the world's large~!
chemical company m an effon to
generate a consistent total aimual
return to shareholders of 15 percent
by DuPont's' 200th anniversarY\in
2002. To get there, he said, DuP\')lt

will aim to double revenue growth
from its current rate of between 3 percent and 4 percent a year to between
6 percent and 8 percent.
An· important component of that
mission is to bolster business in countries such as China, where DuPont
already has three 'wholly owned man-.
ufacturing facilities and eight joint
ventures. The company's revenue
from Chinese operations grew 40 percentlast year to $353 million. which
))uPont expects to exceed $440 million in 1997.

a description of 'its state-of-the-an

Gulf of Mexico sometime next year.
Still, the overriding theme was
global expansion . And Krol's words
weren) limited to stating DuPont's
growth goals in foreign markets.
"Governments around the world
have a role to play in creating optimum conditions for resourceful com. panics like DuPont,:• he said.
Kro! spoke of a need for more
industry privatization in countries
such as India. Russia and Brazil. As.
for China, he was a little more specific.

Film Review
Three S~n

By MARGARET A. McGURK
The CincinnaJI Enquirer
"Booty Call" is.an elaborate commercial for safe sex,
wrapped · in the garb of ~ . bawdy sex farce. Actually,
"bawdy" hardly covers it. It's low-brow, eanhy, profane, crude, shameless, se~ist, irreverent; and, lis it happens, pretty darn funny.
I feel a little guilty about confessing that it made me
laugh out loud.
Tlie story takes place over the cou~e of one night,
when Rushon (tommy Davidson) determines that the
time has come for his relationship with Nikki (Tamala
Jones) to reach the bedroom phase.
Nikki is trying to keep him at bay, so she brings along
her friend Lysterine (Vivica A. Fox) as protection. as a
blind date for Rushon's buddy Bunz (Jamie Foxx). .
Nikki's. resistance finally collapses, but she's wellschooled in safe-sex techniques and keeps sending the
men out on supply e~peditipns !hat tum into disasters.
By the end of the night, the pany has moved to a hospital.
The star here is Bunz, a trash-talking skunk, half mutton-head and half aliey cat. And he ·is one funny man,
thanks to Jamie Foxx's quick wit and nearly deadpan
delivery.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - for the past' 26 years in this western Massachusetts community, nothing has been so cenain as death, taxes and Mrs.
Stevens.
•
·
When Springfield's longest-serving meter maid finally decided to put
away her,ticket book and retire, !he city celebrated. Mayor Michael Albano
issued~ proclamation, declaring Feb. 14 "Stephanie Stevens Day."
She was !he last of the first six women hired by the city as meter maids
still on the job. he said.
He called her a "pioneer in an ungratitymg professiOn (who) raised thousands of dollars of revenue for lht city of Springfield through her diligent
enforcement effons."
Others celebrated for a different reason.
"Thanks be to God," said Rita Hughes,as she headed into City Hall to
vay a trio of tickers. "Thai one didn't miss a trick." '
Relentless is one of !he kindest adjectives generations of downtown workers have applied to the white-haired woman who cut parkers nor one sec- ·
ond of slack.
"We are all relieved," laughed Albano's press aide Tim Reilly.
No politicians, ranging from City Hall types to U.S. Sen. Edward
Kennedy, were immune to her sharJi pen.
, Mrs. Stevens played no favontes and brooked no excuses. She tucked
ttckets on the windshields of governors' limousines and disabled veterans
vans with the same efficlen&lt;·y that she tagged.downt&lt;)wn shoppers and delivery trucks.
On Feb. 14, Mrs. Stevens was on the receiving end. She got roses, Valenune's 'Day candy. Many stojlped to tall&lt; as she made her morning rounds in
the snow - "when the weather is bad, people don't like to run out to feed
!he meters." Her unwavenng diligence made her late for a surprise p1zza
party at the police station.
· As she reflected on the years with her ~se of humor somehow still mtact,
the 65-year-&lt;ild mother of four downplayed some of the legends rhar have
grown up around her pursuit o~ parking scofflaws.
Never, she msis,ted, did she write more than 125 tickets m a smgle day.
And she did nor ever t1cke1 her own husband.
"No way," she satd. "That's my car he's driving. "
"I don't do wharl'm not supposed to," added her husband, John, who
spent 33 years as a ctty police officer before he retired.
"It's hke any cop's JOb - you forget the really bad stuff and talk about
the good when you come home," he said. And when people complamed about
her zeal, he simply assured them: "I don't have any problem with my wife. "
"It's one of the hardest jobs m tile depanment," said Capt. Joseph Parylek,
who heads the traffic d1v1sion. "All the emotion comes out. You really have
to have big shoulders. People may complain. But they still call her Mrs
Stevens. They respect her."

Nursing homes continue
·. mission established by
founding black wom~n
By RON VAMPLE
Associated Pr.ess WrHer
. COLUMBUS - Sallie Scott
entered the Isabelle Ridgway nursing
home last March after spending a few
months in a hospital.
Silting in a wheelchair and speaking in a faint voice while touching a
scar under her left ear, she explained
why she was in a hospi'tal. A woman
she had been living with cut her
throat during an argument.
Circumstances such as injuries,
chronic illness and disabilities force
people to find help in_ Jb~tL older
years. Many are like Mrs, Scott, 84,
wjrqse relatives were unable tQ care
for ijer.. .
.
The decision to place a loved one
in a nursing home can be difficult.
Health care and social needs can no
' longer be met at home, and die finan. cia! responsibility can be a strain on
tlie family.
1be operators of Ridgway understand this dilemma. Ridgway is one
of four Ohio nursing homes rhar were
started by black women wound the
tum of this century. They serve mainly tbe poor, black elderly -like Mrs.
Scbn.
, "Our place started as a fac11ity for
people who can't affol,d anywhere
else," said Patricia Mullins, eJtecutive
director of Isabelle Ridgway. "We
have very little private pay; 95 ~r­
cent of our ,operating funds come
from Medicaid."
Medicaid is federally funded
health oare for rhe poor. The other
nursing homes - Mary Scott in Dayton, Lincoln Crawford in Cincmnati
and Eliza Bryant in Cleveland ~also·
rely heavily on it to cover their
expe-..
·It costs $24 a day to keep a resident at Ridgwtl)': Medicaid pays an

average of $'23.78 a day per resident:
The nursing home has difficulty
maintainmg enough reserve operating
money and has cash flow Pfoblems
when Medicaid payments arc
delayed, Mrs. Mullins satd. As a
result, Ridgway hired a development
director to help the nursmg home
raise money
"We don't have the tradition of
people g1ving in money," Mrs
Mullins said. "Most people g1vc m
ways such as their rime and talents "
Fmancial troubles led Lincoln Crawford to seek · U.S. Bankruptcy
Coun protection from its creditors m
1992. Wesley Hall, a Unncd
Methodist Church-affiliated, nursmg
home operator that serves a predominantly Appalachian clientele m the
Cincinmiti area, bought Lincoln
Crawford m 1995. Wesley Hall raised
about $3.5 mtllion for repairs and
renovations and to continue the nursing home's operations.
" Wesley Hall recogmzed the
1mponance of a black home," said
Richard Bmenfeld, admimstrator at
Lincoln Crawford, which celebrated
its I OO!h anniversary last year.
Binenfeld said Lincoln Crawford
would face serious financi:il problems again 'if it lost even a dollar a
d'l)' in Medicaid per resident.
'~If it's cut hack minimally, il
could inak.e the difference of us surviving fina~cially or not," he sa1~ .
More minority, not-for-profit nursing homes · are feeling ,pinched
because state and federal regulations
are changing the way money 1s
injected into Medicaid, said Deborah
Cloud, spokeswom1111 for the Wasllington-based industry group Amencan Association of Homes 1111d Services for the Aging.

New test could redu~e deaths from colorectal cancer
By DR. MICHAEL L. FREEDMAN

NEW YORK - A new home test
holds the promise of reducing deaths
caused by colorectal cancer, a mahgnan~y that occurs most often m older people. About 131,000 Amen cans develop colorectal cancer each year, and
more than 54,000 dte of 11. Many doctors already advise persons aged SO
and older to have yearly rests, w11h

A new over-the-counter vemon
that costs as httle as $5 is now on the
market. A user must take six consecutive stool samples and perform the
tests, then mail them 1n for analysis.
The gastroinresunal assoc1atton rcc-

The home test doesn 't entirely
clim\nale the need for other rests. The
association says older people should
have a sigmoidoscopy every five

To many fore1gners •. Philippine
cockfighting is shockingly bf.Utal far more bloody than cockfights in
other countries, where the b1rds battle with sharpened natural leg spurs
or ice-pick-like steel gaffs attached 10
their legs. Filipino roosters fight
only one or two matches because of
injuries or death.
Despite this twist, the Filipino
nat1onal bettins pastime is becoming
internationalized.
American breeders now supply

,.

about 30 American cock fighters regularly fight thetr btrds in the Philippines.
