Crash anniversary
painful experience
for victim's parents ·
ADA (AP) - It's been a year
since Amy Miller and her husband
died in the crash of TWA Flight 800
off Long Island.
For her relatives, the pain of the
July 17 crash is·still great. They plan
to visit New York this weekend for
several memorial events.
The one thing Monty and Carole ·
Siekerman won't do is discuss theories about the explosion.
"When we meet people, one of
the first questions is, 'What do you
think happened'?'" said Mrs. Siekerman. "To us, that's a story com. pletely removed from what we ' re
dealing with. It's the funhest things
from our mind to find somebody to
blame.
"Our only concern about that is
that they do find something to. make
sure this doesn't happen all over
again."
Mrs. Miller, 29, and her husband.
Kyle, were among the 230 people
killed in the crash. They were goi ng
to Paris to celebrate their ann~versar:y
and to visit an exchange student who
stayed with the Siekermans more
than 10 years ago.
Mrs. Miller grew up in Ada, about
65 miles south of Toledo. She was
one of three valedictorians of the Ada
High School class of 1985. She met
her husband at Wheaton College in
Illinois while she was a student·
there.

The couple married in 1992. She
had worked for a bank and most
recently wa• comptroller of M&amp;S
Hardware in Tamaqua, Pa. Her husband also worked at the eastern
Pennsylvania business, which is
owned by his family.
Not a day goes by when Sickerman, his wife and their daughter,
Beth Downing, 25, of Ada, don't
think about her.
"Time doesn't mean the pain has
gouen any easier. It hasn' I healed
things," said Siekerman, 57, who is
Ohio
Northern
University's
spokesman. "As t1me goes on, you
realize you ' ve been without them all
the longer."
Mrs. Dowmng said she admired
her sister and they never argued .
"People find that hard to believe
but it's true. She was just incredibly
content wtth life and didn't let anything get to her," she said. · ·
After Mrs. Downing finished college in 1994, she stayed with her siSter in Pcnnsylva!1ia fOr six months .
"I thought we would grow old
together and we would take care of
our parents m our,old age," she said.

Rabies: A threat to your pets

Simpson's dream home sells for $2.63 million

Cosby's testimony looms at extortion trial
NEW YORK (AP) - Jurors at
Autumn Jackson's extortion trial
heard a secret audiotape in which she
agreed in exchange for $24 million to
keep quiet abuut her claim that she is
Bill Cosby's out-of-wedlock daughter.
At one point, Ms. Jackson was
heard on the tape chatting about an
offer from the supermarket tabloid,
the Globe: "I can tell you they tried
not to give me a whole lot at all. .. .
But it was enough to sustain me for
' the time being, I guess."
The popular entertainer was
expected to testify today.
Prosecutors on Monday played the
tape of the 22-year-old woman cheerfully signing the $24 million agreement in the office of Cosby's lawyer,
.John Schmitt.
The lawyer arranged the Jan. I 8

signing after going to the FBI at Cosby's direction to complain about Ms.
Jackson's threats to tell her story to
tabloid newspapers. FBI . agents
attached a recording device to
Schmitt's. shirt for the meeting with
. Ms. Jackson and her friend Jose Medina, 51.
After the sound of pens scratching
on the contract. Schmitt is heard leaving the room and the tape ends. Ms.
Jackson and Medina were arrested on
extortion and conspiracy charges just
after they signed the document .
Each could be sentenced to up to
I2 years in prison if convicted of conspiracy. extortion and violating the
interstate travel act.
· Prosecutors said Ms. Jackson had
demanded $40 million from Schmitt
in telephone calls played for the jury
last week in fed~ral court. Schmitt

testified he told Cosby about the
threat just after the entertainer learned .
that his son, Ennis, had been killed
1an. 16 while changing a tire on a Los
Angeles roadside.
The FBI din:cted Schmitt to negotiate over the telephone ' with Ms.
Jackson, whf1 was staying with Medina at a Burbank, Calif., hotel where
they were working on an unsold chi!dren's television program.
He convinced the two to come to
New York to sign an agreement to
keep her allegations secret in
exchange for $18 million to be paid
to her and $6 million to~ paid to
Medina, who was suppose to write
a book about her.
Cosby and prosecutors agreed he
had a brief affair with Ms. Jackson's
mother but they do not concede she
is his child or that the more than

S100,000 he has given to Ms. Jackson and her mother in the past proves
. he is her father.
Ms. Jackson's lawyers contend
that she broke no laws because she
was told her entire life that she was
Cosby's daughter and believed she
was negotiating for what she
deserved after years of neglect. ·
In other testimony, James Greenhaw said Ms. Jackson was interested
in the 34-acrc Lebec, Calif.. estate he
wa' selling for $1.25 million. and she
visited it five times in the two months
before her arrest.
Greenhaw testified that Ms. Jackson's boyfriend, Antonay Williams.
called him Jan. 11 to say they were .
ready to buy the home. Williams, 26,
of Perry. A a., also was arrested later
and has pleaded guilty to helping in
the alleged extortion.

New studies ·question danger of too much salt
POIITLAND, Ore. (AP) - Cutting back on salt has been a mantra
for doctors for decades. Now they.
must rethink that advice as studies
indicate salt may not be quite the viilain everyone feared.
'IWo researchers at an American
Heart Association conference in Portland told medical journalists on Mon:
day ihat almost everybody shouldreduce salt intake.
·
·
But in general, only people with
high blood pressure need to cut back.
Dr. Jan Breslow, a past president
of the American Heart Association
and a researcher at Rockefeller University, said the association is trying
to decide whether it should issue separnte recommendations for people

with high blood pressure and those
with normal pressure.
But she said separate recpmmcndations would complicate what is
now a simple public health m~ssage:
Eat less salt.
Dr. Suzanne Oparil, director of the
vascular biology and hypertension
prograll! at .the University of Alaba!"a at Btrmmgham, sa1d new studtes
shoW' hypertension os the result of
complex interplay of geDCtic. en vironmental and demograph1c factors.
Advosmg everybody to cut out salt
won'! bring about a widespread
improvement in health, she said. It
may even hurt some people.
Instead of zcromg on on salt.
Oparil said. the hest ways to reduce

blood pressure are through weight
loss and a diet that's rich in fruits ,
vegetables and low-fat 'dairy products. One recent study has shown
such a diet was as effective in lowering blood pressure as most antihypertensive drugs.
Oparil said the best way to figure
out who would benefit from reduced
salt intake would be through random
clinical trials - the same kinds of
studies tharare used to test drugs. But
because measuring the effects of salt
is far more complex than measuring
· lhe effects of a drug. such studies
· have not been done.
Dr. Jeffrey A. Cutler. director of
the clinical application and prevention program for the National Heart.

Lung and Blood Institute, said the
stakes are high for food manufacturers.
"Most of the salt people take in
isn 'I what'o/OU shal&lt;e out of lhc salt
shaker. It's what's put into foOd during processing," he said. "The manufacturers are fearful of being the first
to reduce salt in their products."

COLUMBUS - The issue of
local control vs. statewide performance standards could heat up as
litwmakers debate education reforms
designed to help win passage of a laK
increase for schools.
The House Education Comminee
began hearings Tuesday on a reform
bill. Rep. Randy Gardner, who is conducting the hearings, said the commiuec should be ready to vote on the
bill next week.
The bilf sets new requirements for
high school graduation, beginning
with the class of 2002. Gardner
'doesn't want the bill hogged down
with' amendments, even if it frustrates
those who think the state already die·
lates too much to local schools. · ·
"We have members who believe
very strongly in accountability and
we havt members who believe in
local control. Sometimes, those are in
conflict." Gardner, R-Bo~¥1ing
Green, said after the hearing .
Rep. Mike Wise, R-Mayfield. said

he was concerned that new standards
could supersede local control and
