Ohio lawmakers attempt to work out bi-partisan
compromise on taxation portion of package
By AARON MARSHALL
nrilw-s.nttnel Columbu• Buruu
COLUMBUS - Ohio lawmakers may be consider·
lng a bipartisan compromise over the taxation portion of
a acbool funding package as Ohio House Finance Committee chair Rep. Tom Johnson, R-New Concord,
bellied his committee in Saturday.
JohiiSiin, who did nlit return calls requesting comment, told the 31 committee members to appear at 1 p.m.
Sat,llrday for discussion and a possible vote on Senate
Joint Resolution 3 - the taxation portion of a school-

funding package.
The resolution has been frozen in the committee for
several weeks suggesting that Johnson's call means a
compromise is on the table.
.
Further bolstering that belief were the cryptic comments of Ohio Gov. George \lbinovich, after he emerged
from a closed-door Statehouse meeting with Cincinnaiiarca Senate President Richard Finan and Columbus-area
House·Speaker JoAnn Davidson. ·
Asked how the middle ground is reached in the search
for a compromise, Voinovich said: "I can't tell you right

now because that might spoil it."
Majority Republicans are insistent on taking to the
November 4 ballot a penny-on-the-dollar hike in the
s~te sales tax proposed by Voinovich to provide most of
the new money for schools. They are racing to beat an
August 6 deadline to put all issue on the ballot.
Sixty votes arc required in the House to pass the resolution, the exact number of majority Republicans in the
chamber. However, with 12 to 15 Republicans opposed

Union ICCUHI ltatl of
'bad faith' bargaining

'

COLUMBUS (AP) -A union
representing 4,500 &lt;klctol!l, nul!les, social workers and other professionals, including 34 employees at the Gallipolis Developmen·
tal Center, is accusing the state of
"bad faith" bargaining during
contract negotiations.
But state officials said the unfair
labor practice complaint filed
Thursday by the union with the
State Employment Relations Board
was nothing more than rhetoric.
"They can say whatever they
want. It'll be at least six months
before anyone can resolve whether
this is true ·or not," Step}len
Gulyassy, director of the Offioc of
Collective Bargaining, said Friday.
· Members of District 1199 of
the Servioc Employees Interna·
tlo11al Union are poised to go on
strike Thcsday at 6:45 a.m. It
would be the first strike by state
employees since Ohio passed a
collective bargaining law in 1984.
Union spokesman Pat Glynn
said professionals in 14 state
agencies will not show up to work
Tuesday.

While the eight-member bipartisan task force iiven
the task of reaching a consensus on the taxation issue did
not meet Friday, interparty negiotatlons did oc:cur when
a member of the Democratic team, Akron Rep. Vernon

That petition is now in Lcntcs' hands, and begins a
process that will likely end with the incorporation isaue
on the ballot, although Lentes is not sure when the question would be decided.
The. area to be incorporated would essentially include
the area marked now by road signs entering thC c:ommu·

Being an area targeted for economic development,
Thppcrs Plains residents could benefit from incorpora·
.tion, according to Lcntes.
'Man;r of the expenses borne by an organized villaae
government wouid not apply to Thppers Plains," Lentes
said. 'The main thoroughfares in tho community are State
Routes.7 and 681. The water system would be maintained
and operated by the Thppers Plains-Chester Water District ·

Weber, who is in the initial stages of developing a
housing subdivision on property near the community's
border, also sees financial benefits for the community u
a whole if incorporation is approved.
'I think those who signed the petition would al!JCC that

Architectural firms make pitch to city board of e cation
By KEVIN KEtiY

·
GAWPoLIS - Three architectural firms have
made their pitch io the Gallipolis City Board of Educalion to develop a potential building program and study ,
of existing facilities.
·
No decision on employing any of the firms was
made when the board met Saturday to hear presentalions from Firestone Jaros Mullin Inc., and
Fanning/Howey Associates Inc., both of Columbus, and
{!incinnati-hased Steed Hammond Pauline.
·• "We don't know for sure yet what will be done, so
we need to get a feel for the existing buildings, as well
as for future needs," Board President Dannie Greene
explained.
·
The architects outlined services, and in the case of
Firestone Jaros Mullin, the opening pr~nter, described
with visual aids various school . projects it bas developed at Dublin&gt; Bellefontaine and Logan.
•

_Fi~estone JarQs Mullin w~rked on · the elementary
buddmg program for the Galha County Local Schools
in 1984-86, and representatives Ron Firestone and
Kevin Harrison were accompanied at the meeting by
architect Mark Epling of Gallipolis.
The firms discussed with the board what it and the
district can do in preparation, scheduling .and building
needs before going to the voters.
Following 45-minute presentations, the board also
quizzed the firms for 30-minute periods.
·
Development of a building program and current
building use study is a key in preparing for a potential
bond issue, Firestone explained, although the board
indicated planning for such a program will be a lengthy
process.
·
"It wouldn't be any sooner than a year because we
want to take it a step at a time, to take it to the public
and see what they want," Greene said.
The district needs the time to hold public meetings

and _gauge needs: which ~ ene

."We know what we'd like to e, but this is a community project," Carman said. "W. oul refer not to

In February, the board purchased 1 acres
tenary formerly owned by Harry Pitch~ d as
tential building site. Greene noted that the kin

WASHING'ION (AP)- A littlenoticed portion of the budget-balancing deal changed a new law that
had outraged the elderly by making
it a crime in some cases to transfer
isscts to their children. "
"For all those senior citizens who
needlessly worried about going to
jail, you have nothing to fear anymore," Rep. Steve LaTourette, ROhio, said Friday.
"You fought a bad law and the
bad law is gone."
.
LaTourette had sponsored legislation to repeal a provision of law

intended to curb Medicaid fraud by
imposing penalties on people who
transfer assets .for the sole purpose
of appearing to qualify for a nursing
home bed paid for by tax dollars.
His provision would ~tum to the
· old systeril, under which people who .
.needed nursing home care shonly after
an asset transfer would have to wait
before qualifying for ·taxpayer-paid

care.
The asset transfer would no
longer be a crime.
That provision - a small pan of
an enormous bill setting future budget boundaries - was OA~ of many
actions taken by Congress during its

busy sprint to summer recess. .
Congress also made major revisions in tax policy and allocated
some near-term spending, all of
which will ·have real dollars-and·cents impact on Ohio.
The White House estimates that
more than 1.1 million Ohio families
will qualify for the $500-per-child
tax credit, beginning in 1999.
An estimated 220,000 Ohio students are in line for a $1,500. tax
credit to cover their first two years
of college, and another 271,000 ·

Environmental manager wants
to go slow on major cleanup
By JAMES HANNAH
At18oi:laled Preas Writer
DAYTON -An environmental manager for the city ts m no hurry to
have lbe federal government scratch from its radioactive cleanup ltst four
sues used in the maktnj1 of the atomtc bomb.
Dusty Hall says he needs to be confident that the cleanup was done properly tn the 1950s and is up to current standards
As part ol the cleanup of radioactive contamination at the Mound nuclear
weapons plant m suburban Mtamtsburg, the U.S. Department of Energy
invcntoned cvcrythmg related to work at the plant. That work mcluded four
soles in the Dayton area where radioactive malcrtal was used m the 1940s· a
research center. a school maintenance huildmg. a warehouse and a private
rccreattnnal facility
Most of the sites were contaminated wuh radooacuvc polomum. which
was used as a tngger in the atomic bomb
Energy Department officoals say the sites were checked in the 1970s and
there was no evidence of a hazard. And they say polomum has a haJf.Jifc of
only 138 days anyway and ha.' long since decayed Half-hie o~ the ttmc
needed for half of the atoms in a substance to disintegrate.
The Energy Department wants to take the suc's otT the list and had given
tbe public until July 18 to comment on the proposal. But the department
extended the deadline to Aug. 18 at Hall 's request.
"We just became aware at the last minute that the sites were bemg closed
out," said Hall, environmental manager of the cuy's water department
He saod the extension wtll give him time to review documents provid9d
by the Energy Department as well as advancements m cleanup technology
so he can !'lake an informed decosion about whao needs to be done woth the
SIICS.

"Tbc documentation tlselt raiSes some questions because there arc some
gaps stemming from the top-secret work and sonic things arc inconsiStent,"
he said.
Hall said he is "comfoned" that most of the material wa.• polonium
because it decays qutckly. However, he is concerned that longer-lasting
radioactive material such as plutonium, urantum and tritium was also used.
Hall said he is most concerned about the school butldmg because 11 was
the site ,of polonium production and has soncc been reoccupied by maintenance workcr5. ......,
.,...
...
01
" It is fairly well documented that sidewalks and curbs became contaminated," he said.
Hall said he is trying to set up a meeting with the Energy Depanmcnt.
Ohio Environmental Protection AgClocy, the. Ohto Department of Health and
,the pub!ic school district.
"I hope we'll reach a consensus on what needs to be done."' he said.
Ken Morgan, spokesman for the Energy Department's Ohl&lt;llield ollicc.
s;ud there arc no plans lo ~dn anythmg With the sites unlc,.s someone l:omcs
up with a proposal.

'Chinese plot' connection vanishing
from campaign fund-raising hearings
By CHUCK RAASCH
GNS PoHtlcal Writer
WASHINGTON - Sen. Fred
Thompson conceded Friday his hearings into campaign funds abuses
have not linked the Chinese government to illegal casll, but the probe has
uncovered a disturbing pattern of "so
M!IIIY hustlers handling so much
money from such strange sources __:
and unlimited access to !he White
House."
Thompson was asked by reponers
to defend claims he made at the
beginning of the hearings four weeks
ago of a Chinese "plot" to affect the
presidential election.
· His Senate Governmental Affairs
Committee hearings, which recessed
for a month Thursday, have produced
evidence of illegal foreign donations
to u.s:· campaigns - but ncii the
direct involvement of the Chinese
government. The Chinese adamantly
have denied impi"Qper involvement in
U.S. politics.
And this week, in background sessions with reponers, committee
investigators attempted to play down
the China connection.
Thompson said he stands liy the
statement, which he called a "rough
summary" of intelli&amp;eJIC&lt;Cl b~.
He said he l1ad pointed out at the time.
that he was talking about possible
plans to funnel money inio congressional and state races. But to specif-

iC cases of Chinese money in the
presidential" election, he conceded,
"We don 't the the answer to that
yet."
Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., a member of the committee, said Thomp·son's original statement about possible Chinese involvement "cast a
long shadow" over the early pan of
the hearings.
Levin said there is evidence of foreign money that "illegally" and
''improperly" ended up in both
Republican and Democratic coffers,
but that there was no evidence any
carne from the government of China.
Thompson said the hearings most
likely Will tum toward the White

top White House aides.
He also said .the hearings may
explore whether Vice President AI
Gore made more fund-raising calls
from the White House than previously disclosed.
"We will get into a lot of, shall we
say, phone call activity," Thompson
said, refusing to go further.

Gas-saving engine, yellow flags help Rudd win Brickyard 400

his racing career pay off with a stunning vicJory Satur'day in the

and 19th of his career.
'"To&lt;\ay. we were a third- or

said. "'In practice the other day . we
were a last-place car ~nd they didn"t
give up. They kept working on it.
"''f!&gt;is is just a shock to me.' "
The 160-lap race on the historic 2
I12-milc oval looked like it was
coming down to a shootout between
two previous Brickyard winners.
Jeff Gordon and Dale Jarrell.
Both were planning to make pit
stops in the finallO laps for a splash
of gas before Robby Gordon. a former (ndy-car driver and now a
Winston Cup rookie, hit the wall on
lap·l4?.
·

NASCAR ·officials did not immcdiately throw a caution flag. but
there was too much debris on the
track to keep the green nag out. The
yellow waved on lap 148. and
Gordon and Jarrell pitted.
Rudd remained on the track.
··1 began to back off the throttle a
little bit ·to conserve fuel (about 30
laps frqm . the end), '" he said.
··Those guys (on his crew) kept
telling me. "You got to back off. If
you don't back off. you"rc not going
to make it.' And then that late caution played right into our hands.""

Cubs, Whole Sox, Astros, Royals,

The 'Fiutie Factor'
in college sports

Area sports notes ...

By SAil WILSON

nmaa SanUnel CorrwponcMnt
last weelt, I received a copy of a USA Thday
article that focused on winmng sports programs
and their effect on college admissions.
This is sometimes called the "Fiutie Factor," in
honor of former lloston College quarterback and
Hetsman Trophy winner Doug Flutie. Studtes
~bowed that applications to Boston College
tn=ased 30 percent, and the average SAT score of applicants went from
1150 to 1260 because of Flutie's success with the Eagles.
It seems that winnmg programs-mother words, football and basketball
-;- lead to an increase 10 quahty apphcations to successful athletic instituttons.
Oh! Has someone finally dtscovered Notre Dame's secret? Successful
programs allow a college to be more selective about the students they admit
to their institutions.
·
These are hardly new revelations. Northwestern's trip to the Rose Bowl
m 1995 result~ in a 30 percent increase in student applications, with the
SAT scores of mcom10g freshmen be10g 19 po10ts higher.
College of Charleston President Alex Sanders satd "Unttl we had a team
in the Top 25, nobody had heard of us." An appearan::e in the NCAA Tour•
nament resulted m an esttmated $3.3 million worth of publicity and an
influx of student applications.
'
The free publicity given to successful colleges can also have a restdual
effect throughout the entire mstitution. Outgoing Ohio State President Gor·
don Gee was offered a similar position at Brown Umverstty, 10 part because
of the attet\tion he indire_ctly received from the Buckeye football p~gram
Brown may have hued Gee anyway, but the national attention he
r~ived, especially in dealing with the John Cooper situatton, didn't hurt
htm or the salary tte'll receive from his new employer. Gee benefited from
all those halftime interviews he gave to major television networks bec,ause
he was mtell~gent enough to market himself, as well as the university.
Former Rto Grande coach Newt Ohver has on occasion taken credtt for
having saved Rio Grande College from extinction I have always felt that
Newt had an exaggerated Idea of his importance; however, the connection
between a successful program and student enrollment is well-documented
even at Rio Grande
'
. There is a price to pay for this success. For example, the search and hir10g of a successful coach will cost a university a small fortune You help to
pay th;se costs wtth increases in ttcket prices, tf you can get them, and merchandtse.
. My parents had Notre Dame tickets for over 30 years They gave them up
thts year. I know_many of you may be thinking they're crazy, but gtve me a
moment to expia10
Notre Dame has increased the size of its stadium by 20,000 to accommodate an extensive and ~ch alumm Ticket prices mcrease almost every
rear; however, now the lnsh wanted my parents to pay their buildmg fund
10 advance for 10 years.
. Oh, you never heard of the butlding fund? It's a $100 fee on every set of
tickets you purchase for the season My parents had four ttckets, therefore
$400 a year to the building .fund in addition to the price of the ttckets
'
Now you begin to realize my parents' dilemma. In order to keep their season tickets,
parents w~uld have to send Notre Dame $4,000. To many of
Notre Dame s ncb alumm, thts may be a drop in the bucket but to the rest
of us it's a smaU fortune.
.
'
Consequently,_ Notre Dame solves its major problem: How do we get all
these ncb alumnt, who are wtlhng to donate millions to the school tickets
to the football games? Build a new stadmm from the fees they have ~barged
fans over. t~e years, i~cl.uding f~e?ple like my parents, and then squeeze them
out by ratsmg the budd10g and ttcket costs so high that only the affluent can
afford to purchase them Does that seem to be a plausible solution?
I wonder w~at the cost will be m Columbus once thetr expanston ts completed? More importantly, I wonder who will be able to afford those new
seats?
. Y~ the link between s~ccessful teams·and increased college admissions
IS unmiStakable; however, tt's tmportant to know that sports are not risk-free.

Largemouth bass and channel catfish also provide good fishing this
time of year.
MUSKINGUM RIVER -The
Devola Dam offers good fishing for
channel catfish. Most fish measure
18 to 24 inches with a few larger
fish having been caught. Use chicken livers and night crawlers. Hybrid
striped bass weighing up to three
pounds are being caught on jigs in
areas of water turbulence by boat
anglers. Exercise caution when operating boats in these areas.

Much of the fishing action now
focuses on channel catfish, flathead
catfish, largemouth, hybrid and spotted bass. The areas below lock and
dam structures remain very popular
for many anglers seeking these and
other gamefish. The confluences
where tributary waters enter the
main channel are also good fishing
locations. Check with area bait and

of hybrid sport fish
COLUMBUS -Two hybrid fish
species stocked recently in area
waters by the Ohio Division of
Wildlife should present fishing
opportunities to local anglers.
Nearly I ,250,000 saugeye were
stocked in 10 southeastern Ohio
water areas including Forked Run
Lake in Meigs County and Wellston
City Reservoir, Burr Oak Lake and
Lake Logan.
The saugeye is the hybrid offspring of a cross between a male
sauger and a female walleye. Most
saugeyes in Ohio are artificially
propagated at state fish hatcheries
and then reared to stocking size.
According to David Bright, fish
management supervisor for Wildlife
District Four. hybrid fish such as the
saugeye often have desirable characteristics that are lacking in either
parent. "In the saugeye, these char. acteristics include a rapid growth
rate, increased aggressiveness and
excellent survival,".he said.
Most saugeye caught by .Ohio
fishermen range 12-25 inches in
len1th and can weigh as 1nuch as
eight-plus pounds: The state and
world record saugeye, which
weighed 12.42 pounds, was caught
in March, I993, at Lake Logan in
Hocking County by Daniel D'Amore
of Swanton.
Fishermen can find the greatest
. concentration of saugeyes over
shoals of gravel, bedrock, or other
finn ~toms and they are tolerant of
turbid water: Many saugeyes are
caught in tailwater areas downstream from tbe lakes and reservoirs
where they have been stocked.
In addition. 553,516 hybrid
striped bass were released at five
locations in the Ohio River, including the Gallipolis Pool.
Catches of hybrid striped bass,
which is a cross between the white
bass and striped bass, are reported
regularly by Ohio River anglers.
The rapid growth rate of these
fish enables them to. reach trophy

MADISON LAKE- This tOOacre lake near London maintains a

Action has been good for channel
catfish anglers.
KOKOSING RESERVOIR Use small spinners. surface plugs
and plastic worms dur ing the
evening and morning hours to catch
largemouth bass. The drop-offs in
the old creek are good locations to
find bass. Channel catfish may be
caught at night when using traditionat baits.

It's hard to find a~ entertaining. movie anymore
_,

By DOROTHY SAYRE
Before venturing to Scotland
again, I thought I should view
Bravehean as
several Scots
have asked us if
we've seen it.
Both my husband:'-- George,
and I were disappointed.
. Perhaps
it is the advenis· ing
build-up
gtven movies
today, but they never meet our
expectations. They are either ridiculously silly. sleazy. or so gory that
they offend us . Do the movie producers really th.ink the public is as
, moronic as the people depicted. who
are supposed 10 be entenaining us'?
And, what about the violence?
Critics of violence are saying The
Three Stooges. · Gene Autry. Roy
Rogers and even the canoons of yesterday were too · violent. As a preschool child. I never believed the
movies W&lt;!re real. However. I did
receive the moral message ... good is

honorable and correct. And. the
cowboys and Indians shot from galloping horses were at a distance, in
block and white. with never a closeup of horror.
Today's films have no moral message. The more shock value they can
add with color and zoomed-in coverage of theatrical special effects of
blood and carnage, the ·better. Also.
in my opinion. panial or complelc
nudity never added art to any film.
"Bravehean" was based on a
Scottish hero, William Wallace.
However, a recent newspaper clip· pmg questioned the movie's authenticity regarding Wallace's personal
life as depicted. In other words, if
fact isn't great enough, spice it up a
bit. The era in question, late 13th
and early 14th centuries, was
undoubtedly ruthless and hard for
the Scottish people .under the documen ted cruel English occupancy.
But. seeing the hero splashed in
blood for what seemed to be half, or
more, of the movie was a bit much.
The movie's Scottish scenery -was

NEW YORK (AP) - Like some
lauer-day Henry VIII, Judy Craig
talks nonchalantly about taking off
heads. and she's a wiz at picking out
eyeballs.
Yet she has ever so politely laid
her calipers on today's most famous
crowned head - that of England's
Queen Elizab\'th II- measuring her
from royal car to royal ear. with nev·
era quibble from the monarch.
Ms. Craig, Canadian-born artist
and sculptor. is head of the portraii
sttidio of Madame Tussaud's, the
London wax museum. She directs a
team of sculptors, hairstylists. col·
orists and photographers.
On a visit to New York, s)&gt;e
talked about her job overseeing the
creation of waK figures for the land·

There arc no flights of fancy. Ms.

For the lirst time in SO!I)e 25 years,
local talent will be returning to the
Meigs County Fair this year as grand- ·
stand entenainment.
.
Local-talent proved its popularity
years ago when the Big Bend Min·
strel Association annually staged
musicals as the grandstand attraction
at the fair. The fair board, however,
dropped the pres~ntations in favor of
professional entenainers, and that
was the end of the line.
This year, a musical, "Made in
America," featuring about 120 local
residents, is being put together for
presentation at the grandstand at
· 8:30p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 12.
Organizing and directing the
musical is talented Paulette Harrison, ·
· who does the whole nine yards.
Paulelle has not only planned ' the
show, but has done the choreography,
· taught routines, planned and help
make the costuming. -planned the
lig~ting and staging, and into the bar·
: gain, will be taking an active role in
i the show. The detail involved, and
especially in the heat of summer. can

: bu~ you can count on Paulette and her
: cast to come up with an evening of

• So what we need is a round of

one who has the talent, ability and
persistence to get it all together for

placed in camp ncar the old Shiloh

Ncar the camp was a gushing

them. Ahout two-thirds of the rcgi·

became difficult to muster enough

duty.
Many of them were just gelling
over the measles, which had hit the
53rd Ohio while they were in camp
at Jackson. In fact, two men died in
February 1862 in Jackson. It was
believed that decaying siraw used in
the camp mauresses generated the
bacteria that produced measles.
As the 53rd Ohio had three
Methodist ministers serving as ofli·
cers. the conduct of the men in camp
was far above average. Card playing
and drinking were prohibited. Reli·

One caterpillar found in our county is the Catalpa sphinx caterpillar
that · is JUSt beginning to appear on
catalpa trees.
This large, three·inch·long caterpillar has a distinctive black "horn"
on their posterior end, which gives
them their common name: Catalpa
Hornworm. This caterpillar is quite
specific as it feeds only on catalpa
trees. Two generations are produced
each year with the second generation
causing the defoliation of the entire

tree. Not to worry, as this complete
defoliation occur.; late in the summer
or early fall when the leaves would
normally fall to the ground. After a
heavy feeding year. natural parasites
attack the following year's initial crop
of caterpillar thus reducin~ the num·
ber able to mature into the next generation of egg laying Catalpa Sphinx
Moth.·
