Earlier this month. Montana's ban on homosexual sex was thrown out by the state Supreme Court as a violation of the state's constitutional right to privacy. Sodomy laws in Kentucky and Tennessee also were struck down by state cQurts in recent years. • . Many other states have repealed laws that banned oral and anal sex for gay people and heterosexuals as well. "We' ve made incredible headway," says .Ruth Harlow of the gay-rights Lambda Legal Defense and Education Fund. . But about 20 states, operating under a green light from the Supreme Court, still have laws making sodomy a criminal offense. Consenting adults have no federal constitutional right to private homosexual conduct, the court said .when it upheld Georgia's sodomy law in 1986. · Arkansas, Kansas. Maryland, Missouri and Oklahom~ ban homosexual sex acts. Sodomy is ·banned for gays and heterosexuals alike in Alabama. Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, North · Carolina, Rhode Island, Soul~ Carolina, Utah and Virginia. Penalties vary widely, with maximum jail tenns ranging from 30 days in Arizona to 20 years in Virginia and Rhode Island, or even life in Idaho. Laws banning sodomy also are on the books in Texas, Massachusetts and Michigan, but they have been cast into doubt by court rulings. Sodomy law~ in all.other states have been repealed or thrown out by courts. That is quite a change. since 1961. when· all states had some type of ban on sodomy. Sodomy, labeled a sin by the .Bible and considered by some to be a crime against nature, was outlawed for centuries in England. States in this country followed Britain's example, banning such sex acts ·in 19th century ·criminal codes. .There is vocal support for anti-sodomy laws t'lday. The Rev. Lou Sheldon of the Traditional Values Coalition said, "The sodomy law tells us that heterosexuality is a preferred status in society." Robert Knight of the Family Research Council added, "I would think that instead of taking laws off the books, there would be a public outcry to have them put back on in all 50 states." These .days. hardly anyone is prosecuted for private, consensual acts of , sodomy, says William Eskridge Jr.. a Georgetown University law professor' who is writing a book on how laws affect gay people. Instead, prosecutions tend to be for public solicitation of sodomy or for situations involving rape or coercion.. But sodomy laws arc used indirectly in other cases involving gay people, such as custody or employment disputes. A gay person might be judged a bad candidate to have custody of a child because he or she is assumed to be breaking a state's sodomy law. In Georgia, then-Attorney General Michael Bowers withdrew a job offer to a lesbian in 1990 after learning she planned to marry another woman in a religious ceremony. , The woman sued, but a federal appeals c0 urt ruled this spring that Bowers - who successfully defended Georgia's sodomy law before the Supreme Court - was entitled to think the pub Iic would be confused if he hired someone in a same-sex·marriage. The Georgia Supreme Court upheld that state; sodomy law las.t year, saying it was a valid exercise of the state 's authority to promote moral wel fare. Courts that threw out sodomy laws in Montana.. Kentucky and Tennessee said they violated the right to privacy under their state constitutions. The Kentucky ruling also said the law violated a state guarantee of equal protection under the law. Gay rights advocates hope an equal protection argument may eventually be used to throw out sodomy laws in the states that target only same-sex conduct. Last year. the Supreme Court cited equal protection grounds when it invalidated a Colorado constitutional amendment that forbade laws protecting homosexuals from discrimination. ·;..The Kansas law now is being challenged on equal protection grounds in a case being handled by 'the Ameri'j'n Civil Liberties Union's lesbian and gay rights project. . "It's a ·tremcndous priority of ours," ,Harlow said. "Sodomy laws cast a dark cloud oyer gay people getting equal rights . We will keep making them a prionty until all of them arc gone." EDITOR'S NOTE- Laurie Asseo covers the Supreme Court and legal issues for The Assoo:iated Press. • Home health care has some 'rotten apples' By Jack Anderson and Jan Moller WASHINGTON -- ~ eKplosi ve growth in home health care has a darker ·side, say investigators who've taken a close look at thi s mushrooming industry. Home health care has been touted as the next great wave in health care. Cost-cutters and "insurance companies love it because it costs less ·to treat· a patient at home thah in a hospital or clinic. Many patients love it because they can receive routine medical care without having to leave the comfort of home. But as with any growing industry, this one has attracted a few rotten apples. Next week the Senate Aging Comm ittee, led by Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, will begin looking at some of the scams that have victimized elderly Americans -- and taxpayers -- at an alarming and growing rate. . Congressional investigators have told our associate . George Clifford Ill. that home health-care scams take many different forms.

Lots more. Pepper rarely talks to the media 'and declined to be interviewed for this article. But in a speech in May to investors and analysts in New York - at which reporters were barred ·from asking questions - Pepper said ·he wanted to double P&G 's sales to $70 billion annually by 2006. ''We're going to have to accelerate our rate of growth, and that's our top priority," Pepper said. It seems a tall order. P&G estimates thai its products already can be found in more than 90 .percent of all U.S. homes - under kitchen sinks, .tucked in medicine cabinets, on laundry room shelves .and in refrigerators and cupboards. , After all, the company's list of _U.S. soap and laundry products alone includes: Bold, Dreft, Bounce, Cheer, .

A standard trick is to bill Medicare for an OP~EDTO e xpensive mattress or olher piece of EITHER equipment, while delivering a much cheaper version to the patient. But many of the rip-offs are far more brazen. Investigators learned of a case, for example. where Medicare was billed for providing a patient with tampons -- when in fact the rcctpicnt was an elderly gentleman. A common scam is to bi II Medicare for giving a patient a few infusions or intravenous treatments, then bill Medtcare for hundreds of treatments. In California, investigators found a patient who died of starvation after being locked in a room and left to lie in his own waste. His own sons and daughter were his government-paid home health-care providers.

Massachusetts Institute of Ohio News in Brief: Accord paves way for job reductions COLUMBUS- Agreements between two unions and the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation will allow the bureau 's work force to be reduced without layoffs, employees of th.e agency were told. The agreements involve the Ohio Civil Service Employees Association and District 1199 of the Service Employees International Union. A buyout offer that started last Monday and was to last three months was extended through Oct. 24, 1998. allowing more employees the opportunity to take advantage of it. The bureau will pay for as much as three. years' early retirement for those employees who accept it. . . The bureau will continue helping employees find other JObs as tt swttches to privately managed medical care. . · Under tenns of state labor contracts, the bureau had notified the unions in May of probable restrueturing as medical claims management is switched outside the agency during the year. The bureau had 4,200 employees two years ago. has 3,400 now and expects to have less than 3,000 within !5lflonths, said bureau spokesman Jim Samuel. Activist judges usurp power of the electorate By ROBERT WEEDY Evidence coQtinues to mount that the courts are active in making law rather than judging cases based upon the legislative procedures and Constitutional provisions. While this is a very dangerous course we; are · ~mbarked upon , Americans seem little c.oncerned with this trend. Has the Constitution become. as Jefferson feared, "a mere thing of wax 'in the hands of the judiciary. which they may twist and shape into any form they please"? Why should the Courts make law when clearly that falls to the legislative part of government? The answer · is simpl~. as a recently appointed judge Margaret Morrow wrote: "For the law is, almost by definition. on the cutting edge of social thought. It is the vehicle through which we case the transi'tion from rules which have always been to the rules which have always been to the rules which arc to be."

The car owner gets friendly warnings in the mail. ' Sometimes that J all it lakes to gel . people to slow down , said Hudson police Chief Jim Brown.

"What we really wanted was for the killing to end, because every time a killing was linked to (Cunanan), it was like Jeff had been killed all over again, and the nightmares and the sleepless nights would start again," said Lisa Stravinskas, one of Trail's four older siblings. .

Right now they're too painful to look at, but 1 will." At 72, milija'itairc developer Lee Miglin remained a powerful figure in Chicago real.estate and was living life to the fullest - trave'ling around the world with his wife last year, making the rounds on the city's high-society scene and dreaming of building the world's tallest building. Now things are different: his son, an aspiring actor, has moved home from Los Angeles to help run the business and Marilyn Miglin has lost the man she still called "my boyfriend" after -nearly 40 years. "The feeling is that it doesn't maller because it isn't going to bring (Miglin) back," Mark Jarasck, a longtime family friend . and · associate of Miglin 's, said of Cunanan 's suicide. "It didn 'I mauer if this guy was on the loose, whether he got caught, killed himself, got killed in a gun battle with police ... who gives two hoots about this 'nut." In the small central Illinois town of Westville, where Miglin grew up, his murder meant no more . visits from the hometown boy who made it big. Locals knew Miglin was coming to visit his mother, who's 97, when they'd hear his helicopter ' overhead. The town let him park it in the elemen' lary school yard. "Shortly before he died he was here and r!ty husband invited him to our 50th wedding anniversary party," Regina Konsis said of Miglin, who was a groomsman in her wedding in 1947. "He said be to remind him, that he'd be there, even if he had to fly in just for tbe night." The pany was in June. Miglin was killed in May. · While witnesses described the death of fashion czar Versace as quick- with the killer approaching quickly, firing and running - details of the other four murders blamed on Cunanan will probably never be known. For some of those left behind, it's better that way. .... I know, like my father said, that the good lord had David when he fell," said Diane Benning, Madson'ssister. Benning, a bookstore owner in Hartland, Wis., called her little brother her "soul mate." Madson, a 33-ycar-old architect who had just moved to Minneapolis, had told her about Cunanan and· his aggressive courting. While police say the r.Yo men were lovers, Benning says Cunanan bounded Madson and she is glad to be free of him. "I can't look at that man's picture anymore," she said. "I can't look at that man's eyes anymore, because all I see is him looking into my brother's eyes and doing what he did." For Versaee's family and friends, whose fame and glamour brought the search for Cunanan to the world's attention, Cunanan 's suicide was "a tombstone on the entire affair," said Versace lawyer Vittorio D' Aiello.

"It shows L.A. loves celebrities," said Periigian. "You're not going to get a fair shake in LA. if you sue a celebrity."

His eyes never teared. Don Shula was the epitome of the great coach Saturday as he was inducted .into the Pro FoothallHall of Fame. Shula was in full control as he recounted the 67,year journey from Gralld ltiver, Ohio, to "the ultimate honor." He spoke of the early days - his first coaching job was when he was in eighth grade, when he was placed in charge of watching over sibling lriplets who were in the first grade. He mentioned the playing days at Juhn Carroll University and in the NFL. . He renected on the great tri umphs as the winningest coach in pro football history. He referred to the disappointtnents, too. At no time was Shu Ia offstride. And that's just what anyone who played for him or against him would have expected. "I was able to do something for a lifetime that I enjoy doing," said Shula, who along with New York Gianu owner Wellington Mara, Raiders and Patriots cornerback ; Mike Haynes and Pittsburgh and , Kansas City center .Mike Webster, were inducted into the Hall in ceremonies delayed by a morning deluge. "I've relished every moment of the long route Ill get here. Thanks for letting me reflect on those moments." Shula, the first inductee introduced by two !people - his sons . David and Mike, both of whom have followed him into the NFL as coach· es - won 347 games, averaging I 0 victories a year for his 33 seasons. He also had the highest winningest percentage of any coach, .660, and was the only man to gui<!e a team (the 1972 Dolphins) through an undefeated season. When asked if he was the greatest coach in NFL history, Shula demurred slightly. "I don't know how you measure those things ... I always thought that's )'lhy they keep statistics and wins and losses,·· he said. Mike Shula said his father was the NFL's nati!)nal monument and David told of how Don forged his signature on a permission slip to play football in the eighth grade, when his mother would not give her approval. . And Don , who coached in six Super Bowls, winning in I972 and '73, wondered what might have hap· pened if he'd ignored the NFL when he graduated from John Carroll and accepted an assistant coaching spot that also included teaching math at a · Canton high school. ''I might have been a principal by now," be said. Instead, he became a coaching icon, and when his name was spoken for the first time at the ceremonies, the thousands of fans gathered outside the Hall let out a mighty roar. "I would like to have rode off into the sunset with a Super Bowl championship," said Shula, who . resigned in January 1996 after a playoff loss to Buffalo.

A good education is impmtaht to all Amish familR's, prompting them to build three new Parochial schools in their area where children receive an education that stresses religion, math, reading, writing, and other necessary skills to sharpen their knowledge of making an honest living. Just recently a hug~ community yard and bake sale was held at the E&E Country Store, with all proceeds donated to the three schools. A customer at the E&E store will see shelves full of natural foods, herbs, dry goods, boots and shoes, and a variety of home remedies that include White Linament, Union Salve, and Rosebud Salve. In order to suppiement their .farm income, several of the Amish men have been hired by area businesses, such as the huge S&J Lumber operation near Rio Grande. It is becoming commonplace to see the Amish in downtown Gallipolis where lhey shop in groceries, drug stores, hardwares, feed.stores, and do their banking; Occasionally an Amish horse and buggy is seen .parked at the Gallipolis park front, but most arrive in the downtown area in the vehicles of other neighbors who own cars and pickup trucks. Roger Hill, owner of Hill's Grocery at Gage on Route 141, noted that his sale of snack foods and ice cream products has increased since his store is located within an easy buggy ride to most of the Amish farms.

Visitors to Gallia's Amish country are reminded that extreme caution should be used when driving the roads, as the horse drawn buggies are present. While the horses do not seem distracted or "spooked" by vehicles, they should be approached with care. Because of their strong religious beliefs, the Amish refuse to have their picture taken, and their homemade dolls do not have eyes, noses, or mouths-just a blank face. Since none of the houses have electric or phones a stock of While Gas and Kerosene is stored in 55-gallon drums on the premises, and provides fuel for indoor lamps. Shunning the use of tractors, all plowing, planting, and harvesting is done with teams of large Belgian or Percheron draft horses while the r!'ad horses are of a smaller breed. · The average size of a Gallia Amish family ranges from small to those with up to 15-18 children. As soon as a child is old enough to work they are assigned chores and responsibilities around the home and farm, but they also have fun. In the good weather months they pitch horseshoes, play softball, vplleyball, and fish. Their harsh-weather months are spent playing ping-pong, a popular card game called "Rook," reading, or sitting around with the family in prayer or conversation. When quizzed about popular American sports and athletes, one husky boy replied, "we know that Michael Jordan is the best basketball player." One Amish leader requesting that his name not be published, said that he and others have relocated in Gallia County to escape. the hordes of tourists that have taken over Holmes County. ·. He said, "you mentioned. that you had been to our places up there (Holmes County) many times, and you complained ahoutthc automobile traffic that sometimes clogs Pur roads That sir, is.why we have come here to gel away from that mess." He continued, "all of us want to make an honest living here in Gallia County and we need to sell our farm produce, woodwork, and crafts, but we do not want to face again what we have experienced." He concluded his reinarks with, "we had to get away from there so we can think straight, raise our families, and live .in peace with our neighbors." Thus, in an area of Gallia County that is shaped like an egg, or oval, there are. 3S Amish farms in an area 13 miles long and nine miles deep where. hard-working men in wide-brimmed black hats, and busy wives in boQnels arc improving the quality of life for those around them.

It was 1957, and the lady's husband had passed away the previous year and left her with a considerable amount .of money. $100,000. Because of poor judgment, the widow was nearly penniless. The doctors were concerned it could. also, happen 10 their wives. The physicians elected to start an investment club e•pecially designed for participation by both the wives and husbands to learn about investing and money management. ·The husbands felt their wives cou ld learn to capably manaj!e !heir finances in was residents .

During the meetings. held in their homes. the host couple presents the evening's pro~ram consisting of reports on a few favorite stocks. which the couple has investigated thoroughly. The group then votes on a stock to buy with the group's monthly dues. As members moved or died. new members were invited to join and the investment group has nourished economically. While admining to some poor choices of stock huys. the overall picture of the group's gains has been healthy. Perhaps the biggest gain of all. .though. has been personal through the lasting friendships of members. After every business meeting. dinner is served and the evening continues with conversation among good friends . Over the year., the men and women have spent time together outside of the monthly meetings, on the golf course. on trips extending throughout the world. and other events. They have become a family.

"Is the Bible code a hoax'' The · only responsible answer is 'Yes, ... said Ronald Hendel. a biblical scholar from Southern Methodist University in Dallas. . .

It's all wrapped up in the president of the Umted States. No wonder he's been a major character in so many movies. Ronald Reagan played the, commander· in-chief in real life, scores of other actors have played him on celluloid. Harrison Ford's performance as the resourceful, take-charge President Marshall in "Air Force One" is just the latest in dozens of films that have spotlighted Amer· ica's chief executive. The tradition goes back monr tlilm 80 years to portraits of Lincoln in silent films by D.W Gnffith "Honest" Abe leads the pack among the presidents portrayed- per· formances by Walter Huston, Henry Fonda, Sam Waterston, Raymond Massey and Royal Dano come quickly to mind. If the high-tech editing of the real Bill Clinton into "Contact" is any indicator, we're going to see more and more of the presidents on screen, and they won't always be played by actors. Usually, though, the presidency has been grist for the actors' mill In some cases, they've rontributed Hollywood portraits of historic f~gures- from Fonda as "Young Mr. Lincoln" to Charleton Heston as Andrew Jackson (in "The President's Lady") to Ralph Bellamy as Frankhn D. Roosevelt (in "Sunrise at Campobello"). At other Urnes, actors have created fictional U.S. presidents, from Peter Sellers tn "Dr. Strangelove" to Jack Nicholson in "MarsAttacks"to Michael Douglas in "The American President." "The Book of Vtdeo Lists" by Tom Wiener lists 48 titles under the topic of "Presidency," and that includes none of the films of this decade. Since that book was published in 1990, we've seen "Absolute Power," "Nixon, .. "The American President,,. "In the Line of Fire," "Dave," "Independence Day," "Mars Attacks," ~·contact" and "Air Force One," among others. The recent movies have come so fast after one another that production companies are even leasing sets from each other ("The American President" used the same Oval Office set constructed for "Dave.") Although presidents are often poruayed as good guys, others have been spotlighted as rorrupt slimeballs or sleazy politicos. With that variety in mind, here are a few highlights - the cinematic presidents I'd vote for, and the ones I'd push for impeachment. The ones that seem most wonhy of our trust and ballot include; •Michael Douglas in "The American President." He's concerned, passtonate, caring and smart, and eventually does the right thtng for t~e electorate. (He's also charmingly human, espectally as be pursues his new love life.) •Harrison Ford in " Air Force One." He's as honest as the day is long and committed to international peace and harmony. He's also tough in the clinch and able to fight his own battles. Think of the money we'll save be can be his own secret service! •Peter Sellers in "Dr Strangelove." A calm, resourceful president, he deals brilliantly with the drunken Soviet leader, Chairman Kissoff, on the red phone, and also keeps rontrol in the war room, even as we're blasting ourselves into obhvion with hydrogen bombs Fortunately, none of us I \,. ~ As anti-tobacco efforts gain momentum in the courts and legislatures, acttvtsts have turned the spotlight on smoking in sports, televtsion and movies. A quick survey of current screen fare shows smoking in some form is nearly inescapable. Cigarettes and cig· ars are as common m adult films- those rated R or NC17- as lusty profamty. Among movies aimed at children and teens - those rated G, PG and PG-13 - you mtgbt expect a different pattern. You would be wrong. Tobacco appears in some form in 10 out of the 12 first-run films reviewed here. In some cases, the reference is fleeting; In "The Lost World," for example, Nick (Vince Vaughan) pulls out a cigarette until Sarah (Julianne Moore) tells htm not to light it because the dinosaurs will smell the smoke Hade~ the cartoon villain of "Hercules," smokes a ghostly ci~ar in seconds. Movie industry executives have repeatedly denied any deliberate effort to promote smoking, but the impression of subliminal intent is tough to shake. F"or example, in "The Fifth Element," a futuristic thriller, Bruce Willis smokes cigarettes doled out in controlled amounts. His habit ts treated like a joke, but the underlying message still comes through as "Cigarettes will be pan of life even in the 25th century." Cigars are equally popular, appearing in "Batman and Robin," uGone Fishin'," .. Buddy," even "Her.. cules." Brief images on movie screens do not make or break kids' decisions about tobacco. Yet, it would be disingen· uous to imagme they have no effect at all. A federal study reported in May that more than 25 percent of teens, including many girls, bad smoked cigars at least once.

(Qood.to.Excellent) • Though not as outrageous or unexpected as DiCtllo's 1995 "Livmg in Oblivion," "Box of Moonlight" is a deeper character study, as opposed to a deftly realized oomic nff. Thanks to a touchingly open performance by John Tunurro as AI Fountain, the film's hero, "Box of Moonlight" is at once low-key and quirky, a movie of found comedy and genuine emotton. AI could be a cousin to Turturro 's Barton Fink: Obsessive and doggedly systematic, AI is someone who has to rehearse before he can have fun, the k10d of guy who bas a closet full of the same clothes he wears every day: white dress shirts and black trousers, neatly hung in a will be alive to vote in a second-term election. Presidents I'd impeach include: •Gene Hackman in "Absolute Power." Hl's a conniving, over-sexed creep who sleeps with the wife of a long-ttme friend, kills her when the sex turns rough, and then covers up the crime with other attempts at violence. . • Donald Moffat in "Clear and Present Danger." This corrupt president becomes entangled wtth a Colombia drug cartel, until special agent Jack Ryan solves the case and clears the atr. Just say no, my foot. •Donald Pleasence in "Esc;ape from New York" and Jack Nicholson in "Mars Attacks." These two guys seem too weird and unstable and neurotic to ever be effective, trustwonhy presidents. Both are examples of an actor's "baggage" getting in the way. Of course, in Nicholson's case, the movie was a campy comedy- the pres was supposed to be weird. •Anthony Hopkins as the title character in "Nixon."

AI, an electrical engineer, is supervising the two-week-long installa· tiotl of a turb10e generator for a major power company at a remote rural location. A stickler for detatl, AI has to practice hts response 10 case one of the workmen he supervises asks him to JOin the ntghtly poker game back at the hotel; "Thanks, I'd lo9e to," he repeats to himself in the shower. There's also the nightly 9 p.m. phone call home to his wife and son in Chicago, whom he bullies about learning the multiplication tables. Then AI overhears the workmen talking about htm: "He's like a machine who's on automatic pilot," says one of the k10der ones When the installation project is abruptly canceled a week before they're sched· uled to finish, AI decides to break his slavery to strict routine; he rents a car and, on a whim, goes 10 search of a water park he visited as a child, without telling his wtfe that his job is over. Disillusioned when he finds the water park, he heads home only to nearly collide with a conked-out· car in the road. The young driver IS dressed in a buckskin Davy Crockett suit, complete with coonskin cap; he asks Alto tow him home. The drtver, who calls himself Kid (Sam Rockwell), turns out to be a free spirit who bas dropped completely out of society. He lives in half of a double-wide trailer in the woods, drawing electricity and phone service from illegal feeds from nearby powerlines: "I've been completely off the grid for three years," he chatters to the rattled AI. Kid charms AI into staying overnight; each time AI gets ready to go, something new distracts or stops him from departing on schedule. Initially driven wild by the lack of order or structure in Kid's life, he even· tually finds htmself unwinding from his tightly wrapped existence, allowing himself to be drawn into Kid's oddball world. AI is given to trying to define each moment, to capture them in words by coining aphonsms and quoting himself: "L1fe is like a tomato eaten fresh off the vine -AI Fountain, July 2, 10:30 a.m ",be says, after picking and biting into a tomato. Ultimately, Kid teaches AI to take a deep breath and stop planning every upcoming minute of hts life. He shows him the simple magic of living in the moment without worrying about what happens next. AI, on the other hand, tries to teach Kid a little responsibility and winds up doing so, if only by example. , .

After Counting Crows skyrocketed, Duritz suddenly found himself the target of a backlash It turned out that the dreadlocks worn by the tall, bearded singer were hair extensions (like no other rock singer had ever messed with hts hair before). And then word spread that he was dating Jennifer Aniston. The relationship only lasted a few weeks, but tt dtdn't sit well with complamt-rock punsts who probably expected Duritz to be going out with some angst-ridden watf. Duritz - the guy who sang "When everybody loves me, I'm going to be JUS! about as happy as can be" m "Mr. Jones" - quickly found out that being famous doesn't neces.~artly mean everybody loves you. "It's really unreal," he says now. 'Tm not 1he greatest person with everyone at once. It was really hard at first. When you're a little bit of a freak, and suddenly everyone is look· ing at you, 11 takes a while to adjust." But of course it wa~ Duritz who had set himself up for maximum exposure. "I don't mmd the exposure that! choose to do myself," he says. "The whole point of it was to express myself, and the way we make songs is to make them as bare as possible. They're about my life, and the band's sensitivity to expressing that. "But I don't like other people choosing to expose me," Duritz says. "I don't think that inhuman behavior or rudeness comes with anything." "Recovering the Satellites," released last October, deals in part with Duritz's adjustment to fame, with loves lost, about being overwhelmed and closed off, about the need for both sohtude and attach· ment.

A unique trial program between two Des Moines-area companies turned the tables, however. Hoping to keep seasonal employees during a ume when work s_lacked off. Windsor Window Co. in West Des Moines shared workers with · NeoData, a company that handl es direct marketing services. The sharing of employees drew mixed results. But man y of those involved say the concepi could lay the found ation for future pooling of workers among companies that rely on seasonal workers. · "The people that we saved by having them go there were good employees. I didn't want lo lose those employees,".said Mary Ann Lautzcnhiscr, the former human resources · manager at Windsor Window. " If we 'd laid them off. with unemployment so low. they would have found new JObs." ' Some problems She also warned that firms that may consider sharing workers should be wary of some pitfalls. "I think it's wonh a try," Lautzcnhiser sold. "I think employers tend to ' gc,l competitive and aggre ss ive against each other. But why not work together? Why not step out of the box and change your mi nd?" The novel program began almost by accident. Lautzenhiscr, who now works at The Principal Financial Group as an employee relalions counselor, was checking references on a possible newhire from NeoData. .She called up NeoData's human resources department and began talking about how tough recruiting is when unemployment is low. The hiring olficials at NeoData knew exactly what she meant. Someone suggested they share workers, and about two months later the idea took off.

Employees can work up lO 60 hours a week during the hot months. but see only 32 hours a week in the depth s of winter. 10 workers try it For NeoData. the problem had been opposite - a nurry of work picked up during the winter months. So in November, I0 workers from Windsor Window went 10 work at NeoData's Washington Avenue Di stribution Center. The idea, offi cials said. was to keep them on the payroll by making sure they got a paychec k. '' With unemployment so low, it's hard to get good employees to slay with you ," said John Smit. vice president of Windsor Wi ndow. '"You don "I want to lei peo ple go.

While the pay rate was higher at Windsor Window, the parent company supplemented the workers· income to keep them at their current rate.

Nonpanisan polls have found an increase of almost 10 poi~ts in I g months in the percentage of blacks supporting the voucher concept, which would help the urban poor finance tuition at private - even church-operated- schools. The question is coming before a Senate subcommittee Tuesday, and' black parents arc being brought in to testify in suppon of state voucher progrnms already in usc in Cleveland and Milwaukee. Conservative Sen. Dan Coats, R· Ind .. the suht.:ommittcc chairman. said he called the hearing 10 prove the issue is more than a right-wing auack on public schools in favor of private or religious ones.

Floyd Flake, D-NY. a member of the Congressional Black Caucus. talked up the issue in interviews lust week. Coats·, a longtime supporter of vouchers, is pushing bills to create a pr'ogram of federally supported vouchers in the District of Columbia and anolhcr tn help poor families at unsafe schools. Flake has been an outspoken sup- porter. He is pastor of a church in Queens that runs a school but says the school would not hcnelit from voucher legislation he suppons. Despite opposition from teacher unions, the Clinlon administration and the NAACP, Flake supports legislation to set up a voucher systems in Washington and in·· poor commu· nitics. . ._ The NAACP voted at its annual convention this monlh w oppose voucher plans.
