:c ourt dismisses Miller's · redistricting, co~plaint
COLUMBUS (AP) - Three federal apiJ!Ials judges
have rejected a former cong~;essman's complaint that he ·
was targeted for defeat in 1992 when co~gressional districts were redrawn due to population changes.
Former Rep. Clarence E. Miller, a Republican,
claimed that gerrymandering - the drawing of legislative districts to favor one party's candidates -led to his
defeat..

GALLIPOLIS - · Sobriety checkpoints operated
periodically by Gallipolis City Police have resulted in
fewer arrests for driving under the influenee, but that
doesn't bother the ·department's chief, Roger Brandeberry.
Deterrence to driving drullk has become the main
legacy of the checkpoints, Brandeberry said.
"I'll be tickled to death if' we don't arrest a .single
drunk, because that means it's a success," the chief s~i4
while working the department's sixth checkpoint late

Pollee ,set up traffic tone$,. flares and· stop signs,
stoppedve!)itles and checked drivers' licenses. Those
with potential violations were pulled over, but normally, the ones with minor offenses are given a warning
and sent on their way, the chief said.
· The mo~ common' violations include expired
license's an(! failure to wear seatbel!s, Brandeberry said.
"We do11't hold anyooe. up more than two or' three
minutes," 1\e said. "I think people understand why
we'reout ~re."
Although, some complaints from drivers ~ aired
during the checkpoints, Brandeberry said the overall
response is positive.
He added !hat the · inspiration for the checkpoints
came from other police agencies. Officers have
received training in conducting a checkpoint and have
gone to other communities to
how the procedure
works.
"When ·we ltiad the first one, we hid no idea what the
public response ·would be," ·Brandeberry said. "That
first one I rememl&gt;er was on a very cold night and we
had stopped a woman who was just delighted with what
we were doing.
.
,
"When she left the checkpoint, she turned around,
went to Subway and bought us about a dozen coffees,"
he added. "I know the officers appreciljted that."
Officers volunteer their time; to the checkpoints, and
Brandeberry noted that assistance is given by the Gallia County Sheriff's Department and the Gallia-Meigs
Post ofthe· State Highway Patrol. .
The checkpoints have helped in reducing the number
of DUI citations issued by police over the past year,

Brandeberry said.
Enforcement and awareness have played a role in
stabilizing the amount of arrests, he explained, and Dill
cases in the city are down from tlie last six-monthcount
in late 1995.
"We like to think it's because people are choosing
not to drive when they're impaired," Brandeberry said.
Once an announce~;~~ent is made that a checkpoint is
pending, Brandeberry said "the word gets out in town,"
and he pointed to a taxi passing through the checking
area. Taxis ma~e up to a dozen trips throughout the
night because impaired drivers know about the checkpoint, he said.
"We don't have anything against people going out to
drink and have some fun, we ju~t don't want them lo
climb behind the wheel of a car when they've had too
much," he said.

National parks running risk
of becoming touris_
t traps
(Ind.) Journal and Courier
' School is almost out Vacation beckons. Families will soon embark on !rips
sqme have planned for years. And pnme destinations for people around the ·
wdrld are Amenca's national parks.
Sadly, because of iiudgel' cuts and shrinking resources, the crown jewels
of the national park system are rapidly deteriorating. It IS time for Congress
and the American people to recognize that the National Parks Service has
r~ilthed a point of no return. Unless some money - in appropriations, C&lt;)n·
ceSo!ion franchise or user fees -is pumped into the repair, maintenance and
slllffing of our national parks, they are destined to become lillie more than
run-down tourist traps.
'' l\mericans love their national parks. Unfortunately, that affection does not
ex1end to Congress. Although park attendance increases annually, park budgets have failed to keep up with inflation. For years, maintenance has been
pb~poned. Until this year, park officials have found ways to do more with
less·. Despite small increases in funding in the 1996 budget, vacationers will
see a down-at-the-heels parks system this summer. According to National
Parks Service officials:
• Some m.useums and information centers have been closed.
--·~ Park naturalists and historians will give fewer programs. Many programs
ansi events have been eliminated.
1· ~ General upkeep- mowing, trash removal, painting, repairs- is being
done less frequently.
i-' The season has been shonened.
:), Staff cuts mean that fewer rangers, maintenance, safecy and seasonal
eh)ployees.
. ,.;. Winter storm and flood damage have not been repaired. Money from
Congress only recently was approved, and only enough to "help" with the
c'?M of repairs.
.
. 1 Tra~ls, campgrounds, enhre parks have been closed.
.~ • For lack of money to repair or maintain park water and sewer and
re~tro om facilities, visitors will be told not to drink the water and in some
areiis, only self-contained recreation vehicles will be allowed.
'fbere is no reason for things to have reached this sorry state. Plans to
in,c;rease franchise fees and entrance fees would have eased the money crunch
iftf1ey had been implemented five years ago when they were ftrSt proposed.
In~tead. Congress has ignored the need and delayed. Special interests- park
c91Jcessionaires and tour companies- have stalled, arguing about how fees ·
s~l'~ld be charged. Park visitors almost unanimously suppon increased
enyance fees if the money is going to be plowed directly back into the parks.
B_ul all such fees now go into the general fund, and Congress is yet unwilling)o release that revenue.

Bush and for all the rqst of the ticket m California," Gov. Pete Wilson
said in a recent interview.
Dole ha.• been lagging double digits behind Clinton m California polls
so far. He campaigned there Tuesday
and Wednesday, and said he'd be
back, as often as need be, "whatever 11 takes" to try to wm the lode of
54 electoral votes at stake there.
He's had no real campaign headquaners. Wilson, his state campaign
chatrman, wasn 't alened in advance
when Dole de~ided to step aside as
Senate majority leader. a move he
said he had advised. Wilson attributes the early Chnton lead to unrebutted campatgning and TV advertising by tpc president, which the
Repubhcans say they are about to
answer.
..
Dole has just installed Ken
Khaehtgian, a Los Angeles lawyer
and veteran GOP strategist, as II
national senior adviser to run his !~late
campaign. He is vowing an aggressive campaign, and "80 days of hell",
for Clinton in the fall, after the
Republican National Convention in
San Diego.

The .Republican National Commiuee plans $3.5 million worth of TV
ads irirCalifornia in the weeks ahead.
"We're going to come to California if it takes a wetk, if it takes two
weeks, whatever it takes, we want lo
win tl!is state," Dole said in Ontario
' night.
Tuesday
With 20 percent of the electoral
votes ii wi11 take to win, California is
vital for Clinton. Given likely GOP
strengths elsewhere, the state is crucial td his electoral college aritlune~c.
Republicans can calculate an electoral majority, 270 vptes, even without a California comeback.
Tlj;lt, and the Bush dropout in
1992,f.when his share of the California vote was the lowest for a major
pany nominee since Alf Landon in
1936, still leave state Republicans a
bit uneasy. They welcome Dole's
pledgt, but they've heard that before,
and they want to see more of him.
His latest campaign . swmg on
Tuesday and Wednesday was his
third of the campaign year. Wilson
had linnounced three days of cam·
paigning, but it turned out to be parts
of two. Dole said he'd be back soon.

.

. PeBo~al attention counts. Mon ey'
counts more. Khachigian talks of an
$8 million to $10 million Dole cam.paign, buttressed by additional spend- ·
ing by the state and national parties
Dole and Clinton each Will g~t about
$62 million in federal campaign
funds for the fall .
That would be a big chunk ,of the
DOle budget for one state, even If 11
IS the biggest. Wilson wouldn' t speculate on campaign cos~. saymg he
didn't have numbers and wouldn't
telegraph the other side if he d1d .
In any event, campaign blueprints
change. Plans drafted in the spring
can yield to the targeting that
becomes essential in the fall, when
the swing state battlegrounds m.1 evident and resources are aimed tliere.
Wilson said he believes California
will be the battleground for Dole and
Clinton. lllere will be others, and that
also figures in the GOP strategy for
Ca.lif'!!:!lia.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Children and their advocates came to
Washington Saturday to celebrate the
nation's young and vowed to back up

The "Stand for Children" rally
was not so much about outlining a
political agenda as it was about
forming a movement that would

some of those attending indicated.
Those who arrived early to the
event staked plots on the Mall and
expressed a dedication to children,
especially the neglected and poor.
Some said that even though it was not
a political event it was occurring
because of the upcoming presidential

In Belle's sullen, stick-it-in-yourear world, the situation was obvious.
'I1Je fan would be brought back to

tract deadline pressure.
To comply with qelivery promises, said the Pentagon's defense procurement director Eleanor Spector,
McDonnell Douglas moved production from outside subcontractors in
Callfomta to its St. Louis' plant,
where 11 cost more to make the parts
from scratch.
•
Responding to GAO questions,
Air Force cost experts satd about $94
million overall could be saved on the
C-17 spare pans program if the
McDonnell Douglas mllved the contracts back to outside vendors.

were as much as 56 times higher than
justifiable under federal cost formulas.
.
The Air Force has obligated $120
lnillion for spare parts purchases for
the C-17, but has negotiated pnces
for only about $29 million of that the rest being for parts ordered on
which the provider simply sets the
cost.
When the GAO broached the
inflated prices from the giant defense
contractor with the Pentagon last fall,
the military agency responsible the Defense Contract Management
Command - calculated that the
total overpricing of spare C-17 parts
reviewed was $182,000. The Pentagon claims that amount was subsequently "recovered" from McDonnell Douglas four months ago.
Defense officials, who "partially
concur with the report," ' told the
GAO pan of the problem was con-

iGAO report fin'd s wasteful
By JOHN HANCHETIE
Gannett Newt Service
: . WASHINGTON- Taxpayers are
still being ripped off by outrageously inflated Pentagon purchases, says
~ 'fresh report from the General
Accountmg Office, the congressional watchdog agency.
The GAO says spare pans purch)ISes forthe Air Force's troubled C17 transport include $8,842 door
hooks and $2,187 hinges, parts which
originally cost the provider, McDonnell Douglas Corp., about $389 and ·
$31 respectively.
. Responding to complaints from
Jl,~p . Charlie Rose, D-N.C., about
overly expensive Defense Department purchases, the GAO reviewed
33. separate spare parts for the big cargO", airplane, which the Air Force
views as Its airlift workhorse of the
future.
.
'"Our review indicates that the Air
Force paid higher prices for spare
p!lits !han is justified," concluded the
GAO. "The Air Force patd higher
prices than appears reasonable."
The $2,187 aluminum hinge is for
t~e )illle atr inlet door on the plane's
air conditioning system, and is about
fo~r inches long and two inches wide.
Ttie $8,842 door hook, for a cargo
latehing, is about 7 inches Jong and
:lS inches wide.
-When McDonnell Douglas dehveriid the first four C-17s from its
Long Beach, Calif., plant, !he air conditioning door hinges cost $30.60

• By STEPHEN WILSON ,
'
,,. PARIS (AP) ~ Seveo years tater, Stefan Edberg gained a measure
of revenge against Michael Chang.
The 30-year-old Swede. playing
in his 13tli and final French Open ,
put on a masterful serve-and-volley
performance Saturday to upset the
ailing, fourth-seeded Chang, 4-6, 76-0, 7-6 (7-1 ).
.: "l felt like 1 was 18 or 19," the
unseeded Edberg satd after· receiving
a standing ovation from 'the center
court croY(d. "It was a wondCrful
feeling being out there today I
played some of the best tenqis I've
played for a very, very long time ...
This was only a third-to~nd
.match, but it evoked mell)ories for
both players of !heir 1989 French
· Qpen final. Chang came /rom 11ehi~d
?l lhlil day to beat EdbCrg in five sets,
. becoming the youngest ever Grand
Slam chimpion at the age or 17

s.

years and three months.
"ObvJUusly, you would' pick to
win the tina I in ' 89 but tht s was a
good revenge," stud f,dherg, who has
won every Grand Slani tttle except
the French m his 14-year career.
, Asked whether Saturday 's wm
madC up for the 1989 defeat, Edberg
said, "Not quite. There's still a lnng
way. Another four matches would
make up for it ."
Edberg remains· haunted b'y the
1989 match, which he led two sets to
one nnd 4-2 in the fourth before
Chang rail ted to wm .
" I was 23," he said. " I still saw
myself having more chances. As
years go by, chances of winnmg here
arc getting slimmer. But it's possible.
There ·~ n tiny lillie -chance. If I' m
playmg the way I mn, it's possible,
I know that."
Chang compared Edberg to a
·'fine French wine."

"Maybe he gets hcuer with age ,"
Chang satd. "Thts IS. the only It tie
he's never won. and maybe 11 bnngs

a perfect 12-0 pitching slate. The
cmfty right-hander struck out 1oand
didn't walk a batter before being
relieved by Chad On! in the seventh
with the tying run on base.
"I wanted to finish what I started,"
Roach stated. "I would have gotten
the job done." But Falcon skipper
Spencer decided to go with Chad 0n1
to get the final two outs.
"Personally in my henri, I want. ed Chris to finish because he bad
pitched a great game," Spencer said.
"We (Spencer and assistant coach
Tom Cullen) talked it over and
decided it was best for the team to
bring in southpaw Chad On! to face

fonunately everything worked out.

Ord, after uncorking a wild pitch
to allow a run to score and the ~ential tying run to advance to within 180
feet of home plate caught Setser looking with a knee high fast ball on a 3·

Then Ord enticed Timmy White
to ground out to Young at second to
.end the game.
Wahama took a l-0 lead with its .
first 'run of the game in the third after
two were out. Dale Johnson singled
and swiped second before advancin1

then hit a hot smash down !be third

Braves use six HRs to pound Reds
By JOE KAY
CINCINNATI {AP) - When
Eddie Perez plays at Riverfront Stadium, uncommon! y good things
seem to happen.
The Atlanta Braves' catcher got
his first major-league hit there last
year, a two-run homer to beat lhe
Cincinnati Reds. He went one better
Friday night, getting his first two- .
homer game in a 9- 1 win .
"The only lhing I can say is: I like
this ballpark," Perez said.
So do his teammates. They hit six

solo homers in all Friday. their
biggest long·ball barrage in nearly
three years. Perez and Fred McGriff
had two apiece, apd Jermainc; Dye
and Jeff Blauser had one each.
. The six homers were one shy of
the club record and the most since
Aug. 25, 1993, when the Braves hit
six in San Francisco.
"This place plays small onee in a
while, and it played small tonight,"
manager Bobby Cox said. "The ball
was jumping out of here."
He was half-right. The outfield

After Belle-VIna fracas and brawl,

walls seemed awfully close when
sore-armed Pete Schourek and the
Reds' beleaguered bullpen were in
the game.
Schourek (4-4) went on the IS·
day disabled list after the game
because of a sore elbow lhat has
bothered him for weeks. The left·
handcr has given up 21 runs in 21 '113
innings in his last four starts.
On Friday, he couldn't even get
out the opposing pitcher. Steve Avery
( 6-4) doubled with the bases loaded
to put the Braves up 3-0 .in the second inning. McGriff homered in the

lhird, and Pe rc~ and Dye hit consecutive homers in the sixlh off
Schourek.
"They tend to capitalize on mistakes more than other teams would,"
Schourek said. ·
Schourek, the Reds' opening-day
starter, has tried to pitch lhrough the
pain. He concluded Friday that rest
is lhe only option.
"I'm just not throwing the same
way," he said. "There's nothing left
to do, I guess."
Schourek's fill-ins didn't help

Indians tally 10-4 win over Brewers .
By. TO~ WITHERS
AP Sports Writer
Once again, Albert Belle was in
the middle of trouble. This time,
though, his teammates gladly joined
ln .

'Belle flallened second baseman
Fernando Vina with a football-like
block in the eighth inning, and' lhe ·
Indians brawled With the Brewers in
the ninth inning of Cleveland's 104 wjn at Milwaukee.
During the fracas, Belle knocked
pitcher Steve Sparks out of the way
before joining the pileup of wrestling
players. And Indians reliever iulian
Tavarez slammed first base umpire
.Joe Brinkman to tho; ground.
:. Belle was hit by a pitch in lhe
'&lt;'ighth inning, and as be was tagged
.out by Vina about halfway to second
base, he deHvered a high elbow near
Vina's face, knocking the 5-foot-9
second baseman off his feer.
: "He broke my nose," Vina said.
;" It ain't right for a guy to come at
;your face like that. I was shocked.
-He came at me like a fullback right
at my face ."
.
·: Belle's side: "I was upset because
·t didn 't think I should have been hit
4he first time in a 9-3 game. If he
~wants to hit me, fine, lhen I'll hit the
~econd baseman. If they want to hit
;tne again, our pitcher is going to get
.even. Things will balance out."
: Vina didn't retaliate, but Milwaukee reliever Terry BUITOWS did.
· : After throwing lhree inside pitch_es, Burrows plunked Belle on the left
;shoulder. Bell~, smiling, Y(as escort·
..-ed to first base by home plate umpire
'!rim Welke.
.
.: After the Indians were retired to
·i nd the lOp of lhe ninth, Belle said
:something to Tavrtrez before taking

his pQSition in left ·field. ·
.
• Tavarez's first pitch sailed behind
the back of Mike Matheny, who
charged the mound, and bolh
dugouts emptied. ·
· " He knows what he's supposed to
do," Belle said .defiantly. "They
started it, so we're going to .finish
il."
,
Belle said· he was also angered
that Vina tagged him for the first out
on a double play in the third ..
"The first time, 1 could have
crushed him. The second time, he
was open game," Belle said. "It was
hard, clean baseball. You should be
ready to gel knocked down. It's an
easy play to throw to lhe shortstop
1and then I'll slide hard, OK? I don't
know who started that. In that situation, he's going to get · knocked
down."
Tavarez threw Brinkman over
liis back as the brawl was quieting.
He will certainly draw a fine.
Manny Ramirez homered, double!! and drove in three run s for the
Indians.
Tony Pena equaled a career-high
with four hits and Dennis Martinez
(8-2) gave up six hits in seven
innings.
Ben McDo~ald (4-3) was tagged
for 12 hits in five innings.

another homer to McGriff in the seventh, his 14th. Lee Smi th came on
for his first appearance since being
acquired from California in a trade
Monday, and gave up a homer to
Perez, the first batter he faced.
Perez has three homers this. season and four for his career, all but
one of them at Riverfront. It was hi"
favorite ballpark when he was growing up.
"This is the ballpark where I
watched Davey Concep(:ion play
and the Big Red Machine. I dreamed
of playing here because it was my
favorite team and my. favorite player," he said. " I guess that's why
every time I play here, I play good."
Jeff Blauser co mpleted the drubbing with a solo homer in the ninth
off Marcus Moore, his seventh. The

Avery, who pitched seven shutout

In the Memorial Tournament,

Huston shatters record eri .route to lead

By SAM WILSON'
Tlmee-Sentlnel Correepondent
Spons is always disappointing when competition fails to measure up to the advance billing.
This case was never more evident than with the
recenlly -concluded Bulls- Magic Eastern Conference finals. Maturity and experience proved once
again to bC th&lt;:" dominant factor in the Bulls sweeping the Magic in four games. So much for the "series of the century" label
given to this long-awaited matchup.
All season long, sportswriters
have anticipated this series;
Thtt lhlt11r: , . • ,.,.,. •ftd
however,
I just could never fig atblatlc ,..m, but ~My ,.,. f'OUng
ure out why. The Magic are a
and tne~rlitm:N whM It
talented and athletic
team ' but
.
to handling tiHt PI'N•ure• they are young and inexperienced when it .comes to hanof playoff bsabtball.
dling the pressures of playoff
basketball.
Yes. they made it to the finals last year, but that was with home court
advantage. If Orlando had to play game seven in Indianapolis, it would have
been the Pacers in the fmals against the Rcx:kets. The Magic still havep 't figured out a way to beat good teams on the road.
·
For the third consecutive year the Magic have been swept out of the play offs .. ThiS docs not happcJl to veteran playoff teams. Remember the Bulls. .
without Michael Jordan, were a questionable call away from beating the
Kmcks two years ago. The Rockets, from the six th position, won .the cham '" pionship last Y,car. Once the Magic fall behind in the series, they lose.
!' The MagiC s marquee stars,. Anfernee Hardaway and Shaquille O'Neal,
,: are tw o of the most tale~ted players in the league; however, they are both
;. under 26 years of age. This is only their third year in the playoffs.
;: Imagi ne how successful they will be when once !l;leY teach their prime. ·
' : Today they are gammg the expenence and maturity which are .necessary to
7; win championships. Tomorrow they will be a dominating !lynasty as deadly
:·• as 'the Bulls are today. Maybe then Shaq won :uet Rodman, or anyone else
·; for that matter, get under his skin.
&gt; Fans an&lt;' sportswriters need to be more patient with the Magic. If Shaq
; . resigns with the team, it will only be a matter of time before the Magic live
;:: up to our present expectations.

By RUSTY MILLER
DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) - One of
the most select clubs in golf still has
only two membel'li.
John Huston bid to become only
the third player to shoot 59 in a PGA
Tour event Friday, but a bogey on the
17th hole left him with a stunning
11-unde~- par 61 in the second round

of the Memoriai TQUmame~t.
"ll's kind of like playing .yith the
bank's money in Vegas," Huston saidof the zone he was in. "You just
don't feel like you can lose."
The 61 shattered Kenny Perry's
1991 Memorial Tournament mark by
two shots, and Huston's 7-under 29
on the frmit side was also a record.

The unifonnity of urban sprawl includes

It's a national jlood new/bad news joke. Wherever in this country you

But traveling U.S. highways has made even Margolies appreciate the

"It's lhe 1975 Holiday Inn slogan- 'the best surprise is no surprise'."

But bave we lost something in this homogeneity? We've lost lhe vitality of
many functioning downtowns. But with so much business on lhe outskirts, does
,
downtown mean anything any more?
The expansion and further development of more commercial malls and strips,
Mike Brown of the Galli a County Historical Society, says, has changed the way
,people shop in this country. The convenience of one-stop shopping for everything
f~Um financial services, clothing, gas and fast food especially, has drawn people
away from the downtown areas.
Sl;mette says the very thing that makes Gallipolis unique is what it is in danger of losing - its historic downtown.
•
"These picturesque old buildings embody our cultural heritage and deserve to
be maintained.'' she said.
Mark Schoifet of the International Council of Shopping Centers in New York
.is not so.certain that the sprawl takes away from downtown. While he does see a
trend in retail districts' springing· up around regional malls. built in the suburbs,
_he also thinks th~t in so1fte cities, malls may becoming contributing downtown
citizens
The Main Street Center 'at the National Trust has worked with I ,200 U.S.
towns - advising on local issues of law, resources, community organizing, planning and design . to help ·thern preserve or regain downtowns .
•
"I would suggest that 30 years ago, in a whole lot of places, downtowns had
85 percent of market retailing," says Don Rypkema, a consultant to the National
Trust. "Today a .healthy downtown would have 15 percent of lhat."
Schuette says that rejuvenation of historical districts could increase lhal percentage
"It's a proven fact that rehabilitated historic structures are a catalyst to economic development - something we desperately need to rejuvenate retail business
downtown," she said.
Kunstler says the genesis of those strip developments at the edge of your town
can be traced to Henry Ford. He indicts the automobile and auto-centered landuse planning, and he thinks we will eventually have to face up to our dependence
on fossil fuels.
.Not ev.eryone buys Kunstler's view. Go with the flow, John Margolies says,.
things will probably change again. "The prevailing mode of computerized, new
age, millennium America, and the world for that matter. is Marshall McLuhan's

(global village) come true."
No, Brian Scott says. Scott is head of Livable Oregon in Portland.
"When we let people build things on cheap land at the edge of communities,
we get to pay for roads, wire and co~gestion that that development creates.

If you're ~oncerned that com mercia! homogeneity might overwhelm

Ron Filson and Constance Beaumont of lhe National Trust 'for Historic Preservation say there are some

Filson. who is also a professor at

:'they have to get to a sense of

story of the '60s and '70s when,
county planner James Miller says,
"black folks were trying to obtain
ftrst-class citizenship."

them. He was a. teenager

Association

of Colored
People, once
an
underground organization here.
On April I, 1966, lhe black leadership of Port Gibson announced a
boycott of the town's white merchants - to end preferential treatment for white shoppers, to force
merchants to hire black people and
to gain "Mr!' and "Mrs." terms of
counesy.
Lists of the affected businesses
were carried in the mimeographed
"Black Times." Teen-agers kept
watch and black
boycott-breakers
were also named
in the newspaper.
" The
town
took a pretty serious blow as a
result of lhe economic boycou,"
says Port Gibson
attorney Melvin James Mli'-C'
McFatter. who is
white and the son of lhe man who
owned lhe town's drug store atlhe
time. " Downtown was almost a
ghost town."
Negotiations wilh the state ende.d
lhe boycott in January 1967. But it
was reinstated in 1969 after a yoqng
black riverboat worker was killed in
an arrest and police violence ended a
protest meeting at a church.
The boycott continued off and; on
· until 1976, despite the merchahts'
lawsuit against the organizers:- in
October 1969. The merchants won
twice in ~ississippi courts, but a
landmark. 1982 decision by the U.S.
Supreme Court overturned the state.

Tobacco prog(am notes

By HEATHER RAYBURN
The Naahvllle Tenneauan
Artists make lousy slaves.
That's why Michelle Shocked, the outspoken blues-folk marvel, felt she
had to invoke the 13th Amendment (abolishing slavery) in a lawsuit lhat she
filed and recently settled against her former record company, Mercury.
" I was watching my dreams and ambitions being actively destroyed,"
says Shocked. "I found myself in circumstances that would make anyone
cynical and bitter."
Apparently, Mercury hadn't been listening to her albums.
Her three-album trilogy 1988's "Short, Sharp, Shocked," 1989's "Captain Swing," and 1992's "Arkansas Traveler" showcase the work of a
strong, clever woman intent on changing the system. Not the. ty!'C to be
swept under a rug.
,
"Part of my agenda is to change the separate·but:equal cultural segregation that I see within the record industry," says Shocked, who feels distressed at the lack of African Americans at her shows and wants lhe record
companies to make concerted effort to change that.
Shocked long has criticized tlie recording industry for ignoring the contribution and innuence of blacks. In fact, Shocked wanteil to pose in black·
face on the cover of "Arkansas Traveler" as a political comment on lhe minstrels' role in American music, but was stopped by the record company.
For two years after lhe .release of lhat album, Mercury wo11Jdn't return
Shocked's calls, wouldn't follow lhrough wilh lhe funding on her proposed
album - in short, ignore4 her'altdgelher, she says.
"The first suggestion I got was that they had a problem with my materi·
al," says Shocked. "E,ven lhough it was written into my contract that I had
complete art1stic control.".
"But I speculate that lhe main reason they did it was simply because they
thought they could," she says.
•.•
"I lhin"' they believed that-they have the power to crush' any ~icular
individual artist as easily as ·a bug. They know artists have a time·based
career. When a record company isn't doing anything for you for two years,
it can really damage lhat career."
, A spo"esperson for Mercury declined to discuss Shocked's comments.
In the meantime, Shocked recorded her1own album, "Kind Hearted
Woman," and criss-crossed the country on the club circuit. She said it was a
difficult time for her, but she found a release lhrough the songs on lhe CD.
''I'm sure anyone reading this article can relate to lhe things I was feel•
ing. Life deals out certain frustrations no matter how charmed a life you
think you lead. In a situation like this, you feel boxed in," says Shocked.
"But in that moment, I had 'to get real honest. The experience made me
realize that I was doing th.is for no one but myself. In the past, I felt like I
had to

For AP Special Features ,
Q: I have a 21-year-old Florida
home that has a built:up flat roof
topped with white gravel . The roof
was coated about four years ago, and
il needs coating again . Although I've
patched it . twice in the past three
months, I' ve been told that the life of
this type of roof is about 20 years.
Should I keep patching , or replace it?
A: Probably you'd like to be told
to keep patching it up, but. unfortunately, a lot has changed over the 20
yean since your home was new.
Now, most makers of built-up roofs
talk of a .10-year warranty. This
would indicate how lucky yo u arc
with the roof you have.
You have to weigh patching and
repaipting the water-damaged rooms
under the leaks against the cost of a
new roof. When you ' v~ finally .had it
with painting, the new ·roof can be
applied over the old one.· First the
gravel must be removed (spudded).
Gravel over a buill-up roof is
stroftgly recommended as it helps to
retard the breakdown of the roofing
materials by protecting them from the
sun's ultraviolet rays. Single-sheet
roof applications are availabl e now,
They have a mop-on coating to prntect· against deteri oration caused by
the ultraviolet rays, but gravel helps
the roaf last longer th~n it ever would
with6ut.,it.

Early garden yields ready to send
to markets _throughout the region
C1Jmmc n: ial vegetable growc~s
have j ust finished planting and
already insect pests and diseases arc
feasting on the young plants.
This cool ,. wet spring delayed the
life cycle of in,occ ts such as Colorado
potato beetles, Diantondback caier'
pillars. cabbage loopers, slugs, Ilea
bce.tles and aphids. but they arc
quickly being·spo tted in some fields .
at high enou gh thres hold levels to
warrant be ing controlled.
Scoutin g nf the fields for these
insects IS essential before sprayi ng.
Unnecessary pre ve ntative sprays may
kill more of th e beneficial insec ts
(i.e .. honey bees, lacewings, lady hectlcs) than the small amount of damag e hy a few insects. ·
Both. commercial and home yard
growers need to look for bacterial
speck disease signs mi the leaves of
tomato plants. Louk on leaves for
dark brown or black spots surrounded hy. a yellow hal o. Black le,inns

with yellow borders can also appear
on leaf margins where water collects.
Several plants h~ve been diagnosed.
Spraying of copper-based fungicides
will help control damage. Cool , wet .
'weather favors the devel opment of
this disease.

Another concern
Did you have hagwonns allac k:in~

Sentinel News Staff
Define the individuolthat you are, ·
recognize your strengths and prepare
for the future.
Those were the suggestions of Alison Gerlach and Cynthia Stewan. co-·
valedictorians, and Adam Sheets,
salutatorian, when they addressed the
131 Meigs High School graduating
seniors at the 28th annual baccalaureate and commencement program ·
Sunday afternoon .
"Greatness . is not measured by
money, fame .or power," said Gerlach,
."but from being the best individual
you can be.
"It does not matter if you become
·a star, just if you are striving to do
your best. You are the only you, but
,you cannot find greatness until you
define the individual," Gerlach
· added.
· She applied a comment made by
Jimmy Buffett to her four years of
high school -"Some of it's magtc,
and some of it's tragic, but I've had a
·gO\)d life all the way."
.
In her address, Stewan et,nphasized the need to remember the past
while venturing out into the "real
world ."
She. discussed friendships, the

support friends have given through
the high school years, the necessity of
moving on now and ·searching out
new friends.
Sheets' comments included a reference to a statement by Einstel!, "I
don't think about the future: it ci!\ncs
soon enough," He then gave his
interpretation of that remark. ·
"He was telling us that the future
is there; it's not to be lived· for,. or
longed for ... it's just to be recognized
and prepared for,"
Sheets defined the past as what
"we learn from," the present as "what.
we Jive in," and the future as what
"we need to prepare for."
In their-maroon and gold caps and
gowns, the seniors entered the auditorium to music by the Meigs band.
Gerlach gave the invocation and a
welcome was extended by Tabitha
Lynn Swearingen, class president.
Teresa Devin Simpson, treasurer,
made the introductions.
Special music by the band included Grundman's "The Blue and The
Gray" · and the Alma Mater, and
"Maroon and Gold" by Lohse ~nd
Lohse. The MHS Chorus sang "You
Are Not Alone" by R. · Kelly, and
"Wherever You Go" by Estes and
Henson.

Principal Fenton Taylor presented
the class and diplomas were handed
to the graduates by Roger Abbott,
president of the Meigs Local Board
of Education, as Michael Bradley
Franckowiak, class secretary; read the
class ro ll. Suzanna Henderson, vice
president, did the tassel change as a
symbol of graduation.
