The two-day effort - which was conducted
largely through letters, faxes and press releases
- was initiated on May 8, when former congressman Strickland sent .a letter to Cremeans
proposing to set a "voluntary" $600,000 limit for
the campaign.
·
Several public interest groups, including
United We Stand America, have endorsed that
amount as a suffi cient spe nding limit for a congressional race .
In their previous race for the Sixth District,in

WASHINGTON - It was a brutal assessment from a blunt leader.
The Air Force's top officer said his
men'had failed, from commanders in
Europe to the pilots at the contro'J\ of
Commerce Secretary Ron Brown's
doomed plane.
•
"As a result of that failure, 35
lives were lost," Air Force Chief of
Staff Gen. Ronald Fogleman said Friday in releasing a detailed report on
the April 3 crash in Croatia.
The pilots had committed erTOrs,
the military plan~ wasn' t properly
equipped to handle a primitive radio
beacon navigational system and,
worst of all, he said, Air Force commanders 'had violaled regulations in
allowing the plane to try to land at
Dubrovnik, Croatia, in the first place.
In 1994, Air Force headquaners
·had issued an ordet againSilanding at
foreign airports without first conducting a safety review. It was
' ignored, and Brown's fated trade mission went to unchecked Cilipi Air.-

"How can we have an Air Force

Fogleman asked in a Pentagon briefing. " In my Yiew, that's the stan of
this chain of events ... That, more
than anything else, haunts me."
Last week, the seoior Air Force
officers rdsponsible for the 86th Airlift Wing at Ramstein Air Base, Germany, were stripped of their assignments for their go-ahead decision.
They arc the wing commander, Brig.

The accident report said, "With

Air Force investigators, looking

career, Democrats had such overwhelming congressional majorities
that accommodation was moot. And
because Deinoerats were pushing
Great Society agendas generally
favored by the press, their tactjcs
rarely were questioned.
' That trend continues. While
Republicans early in Clinton's term
often were labeled obstructionist, the
Democrats' ~ent intransigence ~n
Republican legislative initiatives in
Congress largely has been portray,ed
as smart politics. So have Clinton

'
. In his tesignlltion announcement
speech last month, Dole coinplalried
the press does not lean bis way. 1\"ue,
recent surveys have exposed a leftleaning Washington press corps. But
even if Dole's complaints are war·
ranted, they largely .are irrelevant•to
bis job ahead. ·
Dole won't win or lose this election in the media echo-cl!ambers of
Washington. H~ can ·win only by
emulaling his first campaign for
Congress back. in 1960.

GLENDALE, Calif. (AP)- Former TV game show host Ray Combs
was remembered at his funeral Friday
as a dedicated family man and talented entenainer who loved to make
people laugh.
Family and friends filled the 275seat Church of Jesus Christ of LatterDay Saints chapel for the private service. Another 200 people listened
from an adjacent gymnasium.
"We recalled his wit, his humor
and his ability to communicate with
others," said Bishop Paul A. Manwaring. " His greatest desire in life
was to make people happy, make
them smile."
·
Combs, best kn.own as the host of
''The New Family Feud" from 1986
to 1994, hanged himself with a bed- ·
sheet June 2 in a closet at the psychiatric ward of Glendale Adventist
Hospital.
He did not leave a suicide note but
authorities said Combs, 40, ·was
apparently upset over a pending
divorce and was overcoming injuries
suffered in a July 1994. car accident
that left him temporarily paralyzed.
Los Angeles County health officials have launched an investigation
of the sujcide. Officials intend to look
into why the closet bar, designed to
give way under pressure , did not
work properly, said spokeswoman
Jean Olander.
Elder. Jack H. Goaslind·, a close
friend of Combs, admonished mourners to not judge Combs for his
actions, Manwaring said.
"He said we do not know what
was in his mind or in his heart and
that we should leave God to judge
those t~ings," Manwaring said.
Ooaslind also recalled Combs as
a committed Mormon and dedicated
family man who loved his six children, who range in age from 5 to 17.
Gordon Jump, star of the TV
series "WKRP in Cincinnati " was a
pallbearer·at the funeral.
'
·
Burial was scheduled for Monday ·
at Greenwood Cemetery in Combs'
hometown of Hamilton, Ohio.

WASHINGTON (AP)- ValuJet
Airlines, whose planes are maintained by dozens of private contractors, is negotiatingwith several major
airlines to take over most of the
heavy maintenance, The Washington
Post reported Saturday.
In the months before the May II
crash of a ValuJet plane io the Everglades, near Miami, the maintenance
practices of the low-fare carrier had
· been criticized by the Federal Aviation Administration.
The maintenance policy has created quality . control problems,
stretched the FAA's inspecti'on forces
and pointed up flaws in the agency's
inspection£0~c!es, the Post said.
It said A'ic.Ymada was the leading
candidate. to take over the responsibility of heavy maintenance on ValuJet's fleet of DC-9-30 aircraft,
which is now handled by a half-dozen
private contractorS.
"I have discussed this at the highest levef of Air Canada, and they're
enthusiastic, but nothing has been
signed at this time," Valulet Presideot
Lewis Jordan told the newspaper.
Changes in the airline's operations
are being negotiated in Atlanta, ValuJet 's home base, between officials of
-ValuJet and the FAA's Southern
Region. and an overhaul could be'
announced as early as next week.

ifticc:rs have la!!eled h1m a racist and
t.kcn their complaints to the Justice
pcpartment.
' The 62-y~-old Jackson, who .
fharnpione4 civil rights in discrimi,..tion lawsuits filed in tbe 1970s
tgainsl the 1;637-member police
ilepartJIIenl he now• heads, says
~ere's no truth to their claims that he
~vors white officers over black and
tunishes black officers more severefy than white's.
.
The 100-inember Police Officers
for Equal Rights, dissatisfied with an
eight-month city investigation that
found no wrongdoing on Jackson:S
part, wants Jackson out.
When Jackson was promoted, fellow black officers "thought that he
was going to

·sergeant who heads POER.
!· "That didn't happen .... You find

who get to ... top positions on the
l&gt;acks of African-Americans who did
the struggle."
·
• Nol'lrlle and not fair, Jackson brislies: He insi§ls he treats tveryone
clqually · and resents anyone'.. who
holds him to a different standard
be.cause he is black. • "All they should expect me to do
is what I have been doing -treating

he said.

"Some people say that maybe in
discipline I'm a little bit too harsh,
but if I am, it's harsh on everyone...
Thom~s Rice, the city safety
director who investigated POER's
allegations, agrees.
·
.
"Chief Jackson is strong on discipline, but no evidence exists that he
is a racist," said Rice, who is white.
· But Moss believes Rice's findings,
detailed in a repon released in Fe!&gt;ruary, are questionable because he
was investigating his ow n depanment.
A four-member recruitment unit
was restructured in January in
response to some of the: liiring complaints. It now includes a black man.
The Justice Department would not
discuss the case. Spokesman Charles
Miller said the department · never
comments on pending investigations.
Moss said the government is look- ·
ing into alleged hiring discrimination,
criminal and citizen complaints, and
POER 's allegations against Jackson.
But Jackson is confident he will be
cleated in the federal investigation.
"As far as I .know, that 's just a
joke," he said. "The allegations
could have been addressed by those
that raised theni if they had chosen to
seek, the public records."
Amqng POBR 's allegations:
• A black officer who called in sick•
was marked ' absent without leave
because the officer at the i~formation
desk did not report her call. Jackson
recommended she be suspended, but
the case was thrown out on appeal.
POER contends Jackson believed
the white officer over the black officer, who had no history of any disci -

pline problems.
• Jackson recommended discipline for a black officer who wore a
hood in winter to help prevent breathing problems because she has asthnia.
Moss says the hood was not a prol&gt;!em until she became involved in
POER. Internal affairs tried to file
charges, saying a police officer in a
hood would have a negative effect on
· the public. She f!led a complaint with
the Ohio Civil Rights Commission,
which found the city -guihy of disciirriination in gender, race and under
the Americans wit)l Disabilities Act.
The depart merit, which now
employs 224 blac~ officers, has tangled with discrimination problems in
the past.
In 1973, a judge hearing a discrimination lawsuit declared the 1=ity
was rio1 hiring cnougti minorities and
ordered the department to hire blacks
until its makeup was 14.9 ·percent
black.
Two years later, a female officer
sued, charging gender discrimination.
The court required ~he city to hire
women and maintain staffing in the
department·at 12 percent female.
In 1976, POER filed a lawsuit
alleging discrimination in assignments; discipline and /Promotions.
The class-action lawsuit went to tria! in 1984. The cnurt foulitl no ,:liscrimination in discipline, but O(dered
hiring ·of more blacks in specified
areas of the department and ordered
the promotion of 22 blacks to
sergeant.
Jackson, who was one of only two
~lacks in his police class of 1958,
also has a history of fighting dis-

COLUMBUS (AP)- The city attorney wants some 111swers reaard•nr
a police commander's investigation into a prostitution ring and dr&lt;JPP.ed
charges against the officer for his handling of the probe. .

City Attorney Ron 0' Brien was asked by Safety Director Thomas ~
to review .the case against Cmdr. Walter Burns for possible misderneaaor '
charges. A 1,000-page report by the police internal affairs division a11e1~,

O' Brien said he did not know how long his review would take.
'" ,,
Bums could be charged with obstruction of justice. The maximum se,n;~
tence for a misdemeanor is six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.

Burns had· fa,ced 13 departmental charges accusing him of mishandlii:'!!-,

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP)- F'II'C
: investigators used dogs Friday to try
to sniff out clue~ \0 an arson fii'C that
• destroyed a 93-year-old wooden
sanctuary, the 30th fii'C at a Southern
: ~lack chwd! in the last year and half.
• Federal investigaton on the scene
-stopped short of saying whether the•
: fire Thursday night was related to the
previous burnings.
• . :'Alii can tell you right now is we
:are working very hard to get to the
-bottom of this,'.' President Clinton
:told reporters in WaShington.
: . ,Meanwhile, the Southern Poverty
:Law Center of Montgomery, Ala.,
,fil~ a lawsuit Friday seeking damages from the Ku J(lux Klan for the
·burning of the Macedonia Baptist
: Ch11rch in South Carolina last ·June
·:21.
.
. The lawsuit names the Christian
: Knights ofthe Ku Klux Klan, a group
. founded in Mount Holly, N.C., with
:chapters in North Carolina, ken::lucky, Tennessee and South Carolina.
. Also named were Timothy Welc
; and Gary Cox, members of the KK
:chapter who are in jail awaiting trial
;on· burglary and arson charges, a_nd
-have admitted their involvement in
:the' 'fire, according to the South Car~ olina lawsuit.
The sanctuary in North Carolina,

which dales to 1903, was used only
to store old pews and other things on
the grounds of the Matthews-Murkland Presbyterian Church. The mostly black 175-member congregation
worships in a new building • 100
yards away.
The church was planning to reoovate the building and use it as a wedding chapel or for other community
activities. It estimated the loss at
$150,000.
Investigators said the fire had
been set. They did not say how.
"We won't say it's connected to
the series or fires, but we're just getting information from the scene,"
said Mark Logan, agent in charge for
the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Fireanns.
·
Gov. Jim Hunt · authorized a
$10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction·oflhe
ar ' ist or arsonists.
Church member Timothy Funderburk, who lives across the street from
the burned out building, was convinced that someone torched it.
"I hate to prejudice somebody, but .
this was. set. I've seen too many
things happen here," he said as he
looked at the pieces of the charred
remains of the white-clapboard building.

JORDAN, Mont. (AP)- The recent defections of four people from the
Freemen compound will postpone, at least temporarily, further FBI pressure
tactics, a senior official said.
The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Friday the emergence of Gloria and Elwin Ward and Ms. Ward's two dauJ(lcen, promJllell
the FBI to see what might be accomplished by talking befon:" reiUtning to
the pressure tactics.
This week, the FBI cut off electricity to the 960-acre ranch where 17'
Freemen have been holed up since March 2S and moved three armored cars '
closer to the group's property. The Wards and two children left on Thursday.
Also Friday, FBI negotiators joined two Freemen at a card table for the
first talks in more than two weeks.
Edwin Clark, widely recognized as one of the Freemad leaders, and an
unidentified Freeman met two FBI negotiatorS for half an hour on a dirt road
at the entrance to the complex.
.
Clark had met alone with the FBI at a small country chuich a mile outside the compound the past two days, but the latest meeting took place on a
road the Freemen now claim as part of the comimJnity they have named Justus Township.
Some suggested the departure of 10-ycar-old Courtnie and 8-ycar-old Jay-:

Smith pitches middle relief in Reds' 2-1 win ov~r Dodgers _
· · LOS ANGELES (AP} - Lee
S mith knows all about distractions.
H~ was the biggest one the California Angels had before they dealt him
to the Cincinnati Reds last month.
The right -hander now finds himself pitching for a team that has gone
from a divisi on title last year to the
worst record in the NL this year
because of a litany of distractions from umpire John McSherry 's fatal
heart anack in their ballpark on
opening day, to owner Marge
Schutt's unique view of world history and the trouble it has gotten her
·
into.
: After losing his job as Angels
ci'o scr to Troy Percival and demanding a trade , Smith has adapted to his
role as setup man to Jeff Brantley
l"i\h the Reds. He did the job again
Friday night, pitching a scoreless
ei ghth inning in relief of John Smiley: before Brantley completed a 2. I victory over the Los Angeles
D&lt;ldgers.

Smith, the major leagues' all-time
saves leader, hasn't made any waves
regarding his role with the Reds
because manager Ray Knight told
him from the stan that Brantley
would continue closing.
In Anaheim , Angels manager
Marcel Lachemann promised Smith
he would remain lhe Angels ' closer
once he came off the disabled list
But general manager Bill Bavasi preferred Percival because of the solid
job he did during Smith's knee
inJury.
•
Smith was so glad to get away
from the Angels, he didn't even mind
conforming to Schott's team policy
and shaved off his beard.
" I ain ' t claiming to be no rocket
sc ientist, but I know the reason why
I'm in Cincinnati," Smith said. "But
at least I was tofd what was going to
happen when I came here.
" It had nothing to do with how
long I had been closing. I'd still like
to close some day. If I get a chance.

Smith tightroped through the
eighth inning, going to 3-2 counts on
his last three batters before striking
out Raul Mondesi on a pitch low and
away with the tying runs on base.
Even though il was the first lime
Mondesi had ever faced Smith,
Knight laughed when asked if he
reminded Smith that the free-swinging Mondesi was susceptible to
those kind of pitches.
•
"You don't have to remind Lee
Smith about anything, and I' m not

CHICAGO (AP)- Dennis Rodman was never quite the distraction
that many preilicted. Sure, he
changed his hair styles, pursued his
unique off-the-floor lifestyle and
had run-ins with referees, even beadbutting one and drawing a suspension.
But without Rodman 's relentless
rebounding and fearless defense, the
Chicago Bulls would not have won
a record 72 games this sc&amp;Son.
·And without tljat same aggressive
play from the man of many tattoos
and body piercings, they might not
be up 2-0 in the NBA Finals.
"Dennis came into Chicago with
one purpose in mind and that was to
rebound and do whatever he can to
get us the championship," Michael
Jordap said after Rodman's 20rebound performance Friday night
bailed the Bulls out in a 92-88 victory over the Seattle SuperSonics.
"He canie in with a lot of heart,
especially down the stretch. The
rebounding that he's done for us really has made a difference, not just in
the Finals but all through the play-

• nm111 Sentinel Correepondent
I have always viewed myself as a baseball
• purist. I don't suppon the designated hitter and a
: variety of other changes which have da!llaged the
: essence of our national pastime since 1968.
: I thoughl div isional play was a mistake. The
best teams should play in a World Series, not the
1973 Mets or 1987 Twins.
I grew up in an era where pitchers pitched a game. A quality stan was
nine innings, not six. Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax and Tom Seaver were
: expected to go nine innings when they took the mound. From 1967to 1969,
: Gibson went over a season and a half without being knocll.ed out of a game.

•
The changes which have
been instituted have diluted the
game, but, as its supporters have
maintained, the game is more
•
t exciting for the players and fans alike.
'
Let's look at the Indians and the Reds.
: Cleveland, the best team in the.American League, if not baseball, will be
; back in the playoffs barring a rash of injuries or a total collapse. It will be
: more difficult, however, for them to repeat as chaJ)lpions because of the
: extended ' playoff system. They will have to win seven additional playoff
games, against teams with inferior records, just to make it back to the World
Series.
Years ago they would have'won the pennant by virtue-of having the best
record. That's the n~gative · aspeet of divisional play. Baseball penalizes the
best teams. Even divisional losers can become world champions.
The Reds represent the essence of today 's values. They are wallowing
below .500 in the National League "Comedy" Central. No team is above the
.500 mark in the division . Hence, if tbe Reds get hot in August or Septem" ber, they could find themselves back in the hunt for a world championship
~ with ope of the worst records of any divisional winner.
:
They have as good a chance as any in making it to the World Series even
: though they are not one of the best 10 teams in the National League. Base~ ball rewards mediocrity with more chances to succeed.
J: In other words, since baseball is a reflection of our society, political cor: rectness has finally made its appearance in our national sport: penalil(&gt; sue• cess by rewarding mediocrity.
,
:
If this doesn 't work, baseball 's collective brain trust might force the bet. : ter teams to play with eight players . After all, we don 't want to make things
~ too difficult for the losers. They might be forced to work harder to improve
: themselves.

!stealing second and we're covering

\•

By CHRISTOPHER BURNS
, PARIS (AP) - Yevgeny Kafelnilmv wanted to get to his first Grand
Slam final on his own merits. But
Pete Sampras just wasn't Pete Sampras.
,
"I didn't want to win that way,"
the sixth-seeded Kafelnikov said
after heating Sampras 7-6 (7 -4), 6-0,
6-2 in Friday's semifinals.
Sampras was weakened after
playing three five-set matches in the
earlier rounds. That lessened the vic- .
tory a bit for Kafelnikov.
"He's not the same Pete as we 're
used to seeing him," the Russian
said. "I'm a litde frustrated with that,
but I'm happy being in the final."
Kafelnikov beat Andre Agassi in
similar circumstances during the
French quanerfinals last year, when
Agassi injured his hip. The Russian

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) He~ is the weekly fishing ~port provided by the Division of Wildlife of
the Ohio Depanment of Natural
Resources:
Ohio River
The Greenup Pool includes 62
fiver miles and II ,200 surface acres
of water. Thi~ is a good time to fish
for channel and flathead catfish,
crappies, sunfish, most bass species,
and walleyes. Stream confluences
and the Gallipolis tail waters also pmvide good fishing action. Use small
$pinner baits cast to weedy sho~line
areas to take bass.

J~CKSON LAKE - June is an
excellent monrh throughout Ohio to
~sh for channel catfish. This nighttime ·feeder prefers to forage along
·lake and river bottoms. Traditional
baits include chicken livers, night
crawlers, prepared baits and cut
baits. Fishing prospects are rated
excellent.
. PIEDMONT LAKE - Nearly 32
tones of clay tile were placed here to

develop fi ve "reef" areas. Shoreline
trees that were previously felled,
along with the placemen~ of discarded Christmas trees, have created numerous fish anractors.
Prospects for walleyes, saugeyes,
muskies, channel catfish. largemouth
and smallmouth bass are rated excellent in t996.
Southwest
LAKE LORAMIE - -Lots of
bluegills measuring live to eight
inches are present. Use small worms
or larval baits fished in shallow water
near the shoreline for best results.
Bullhead fishing should be c.cellent
this year. The deeper areas of the lake
may hold good numbers of crappies. ·
RUSH RUN LAKE - Worms
and larval baits produce good results
if fished along th edges of submerged
plants when seeking bluegills. largemouth bass are protected by a 12-to
15-inch slot length limit, which
means all bass measuring 12 to 15
inches must be returned to the water ·
when caught.

DELAWARE LAKE - Fish the

minnows when seeking cmppies.
The submerged creek channel and
areas with tree stumps are good locations to fi sh for bass. Night fishing
with cut baits is productive when

When the date for that first dinner

Tlmaa S1ntlnel staff ·
CARPENTER -- The centennial
of lhe Mount Union Church in rural
Meigs County will be observed next
Sunday, June 16, with an all -day celebration.
The white frame church was built
in I 896 by the farm families who
had sctt.Jed along the ridges and in
the valleys of Columbia and Scipio
Townships in northern Meigs County. Wood and stone for the structure
was taken from land owned by local
farmers.
There is little history of the early
years of the church. Records of families who were members extend
back to the 1930s and include the
names of .Steward, Hannon, Wiseman. Jordan, Humphrey, Gutschall,
Riddell, Woods, Carr, Carter and
Nicholson.
During the depression the church
grew in membership and prospered.
Then a decline set in and it eventually closed. Stories have it that the
church was reborn in the late 1950s
when the word began circulating
that a man planned to take over the
.building and use it 1s a barn for his
cattle .
It was then that Mount Union
experienced a rebirtn. Men in the
community began to work to rehabilitate the church. The late Earl
Starkey who Jived about a mile from
the church, headed up the project

work himself.

Dear Ann Landers: This is the
story of how my mother and father
met. They are too embarrassed to
write, so I'm doing it for them.
My parents were both studying in
a library at Harvard · University 21
years ago. It was late. and there was
a full moon. Each til ought the
library was empty. My mother, at
one end of the library, went to the
window and slaned to howl at the
moon. My father, who was at the
other end of the library, also staned
to howl at the moon. When my
mother heard someone else howling,
she walked to where the' sound was
coming from and saw my father
howling.
Mom said she had seen him on
the campus but he seemed sort of
"nerdy." When she saw him howling. her opinion changed .
She hoped he would ask her out,
but he didn 't, so she asked him. He
was quite shy, but she was very fond
of him and hung in there for live

By 'JEf'RY PERKINS
'Tl1e Dell Molnea Reglater
.DES MOINES, Iowa - A little-noticed section of the 1996 farm law could
bring big changes to rural America.
While most of the attention has focused on the historic change in the way
the ,federal government subsidizes fanners , the rural development title could
have far-reaching consequences for rural areas.
·
"We don 't know whattbe potential is yet," said Mark Edelman, Iowa State
c University E~tcnsion public policy economist. "But it looks proMising."
, · . There will be fewer strings attached to the federal government's money,
more freedom for states and local governments to decide where and how th.e
money will be spent, and an expanded role for local people in rural communities.
" It's a very new approach," said Ellen Huntoon, Iowa director for Rural Development, the agency of the Agriculture Department that will administer the new rural development title. "It gives us a lot more fle~ibility as
'$1te directors."
;-· As state director of what used to be the Fanners Home Administration,
:fiP'ntoon inherited the FmHA's. rural developme~t programs. The agency.'s
ofarJD lending programs were shifted to the USDA s Farm S~1ce Agency'"
a reorganization several years ago.
The new rural development title's Rural Community Advanceme?t Program consolidates a ·number of programs and gives state directors such as
Hu.ntoon disc retionary authority to move funds from one program to anoth-

er. "The emphasis is on flexibility iii delivering programs," said Anhur Campbell, USDA deputy undersecretary for rural development. " We can respond
to local needs and local priorities."
While funding by Congress is still in question, and the rules 'and regulation s haven't been written, Campbell said the emphasis in the rural develupment title is on " layering" funding for programs.
That means the federal government, state and local ·governments, banks,
foundations, land grant universities and community colle,ges will be asked
to provide funding or expertise to create jobs in rural areas.
·
· Campbell said recent cuts in rural development programs by Congress
ha~e forced a ncw.spirit of teamwork from groups that weren 't used to working together.
· .
·
.
"It's been a blessing in a way," he said. Budget cuts are "accelerating
our effortS to do things differently, allowing us to do things smarter." .
.' Huntoon said state and federal governments will be able to,work together better under ttie new, more nexible law.
" It forces us all to work without
horse blinders on," Huntoon said.
· Huntoon .said the money that has been cut from"farm.program spending
by the new farm law, known as the Federal Agriculture 'Improvement and
Reform Act of I966, should be shifted to rural economic development projects.
·
.
" If we see less money for farmers, we 're going to need this shift to our
:rural communities and businesses," Huntoon said.
·Three-Way Battle
·
But funding of the new title hasn't b.~Jen decided by Congress yet.
', : The House of Representatives, the Senate and the White House are locked·
- in a three-way battle over agriculture spending, said Brad DeVries of the Cam•
.
.
· pa1gn for Sustainable Agriculture in Washington, D.C. .
'A key battleground will be the Fund for Rural Amenca, which DeVnes
called a major piece of the new rural development law.
Funding it will be "an extremely important issue," he said. "It's going
to become a real light."
• · The Fund for Rural America will spend $300 million in the three years
beginning in January 1997. One-third of the money wiU be' spent on rural
development programs. one-third on research and one-third at the discretion
· · of the agriculture secretary.
·
Campbell said the idea is to "really put legs on research," by pushing bankable ideas into the marketplace.
Another key element in the new rural development Jaw is how the mon' ey is divided among the states.
.
· ·That allocation will.~etermine how much federal money can used by local
· ·a.na state officials to leverage private investments and foundation grants for
programs.

Com futures prices rocketed higher Friday as the window for planting
desperately needed supplies nan:ows
to a close with many farmers unable
to get into the fields because of heavy
rainfall .
On other commodity markets,
copper futures rebounded from sharp
losses earlier this week, while energy futures also gained. The Commodity Research Bureau's in ex of
17 commodities rose 2.01 points to
250.69.
Corn for July delivery on the

Weather continued to confound
farmers. Up to 2 inches ofrain fell in
parts of Illinois,Jndiana and Ohio on
Thursday, and the National Weather
Service is predicting above-normal
rainfall in parts of the Midwest over
the next eight dayk.
.
The normal deadline for planting
com is June I 5, and futures investors
believe as much as 2 million acres of
the ~rop may be sacrificed to soybeans, with the same amount left
unplanted.
That would leave only about79.2
million U.S. acres planted with corn
- a dangerously low number, given
the current world demand situation,
. said analyst Steve Freed with ADM
Investor Services in Chicago.
" If we plant 80 million acres or
less, it's almost impossible to grow a

The market had been extremely

A staple gun is easy to use. Grasp
the handle and place the gun finnly
against the material to be stapled.

There are two other specialize&amp;t
tools that drive staples.
;

Disena-ae the safety lock and release
your grip so the handle springs up.
Tben squeeze the handle down
sharply to fire the staple . If possible,
to eliminate recoil and increase tiring
strength, press down the head of the
gun with the heel of your free hand.
Use a lightweight staple gun lo
replace or repair screening. To repair
a screen that has pulled out its wood
frame, staple the screen to the frame,
folding a hem as you go. Double over
the screen to make the fastening
stronger and avoid unraveling.
Another tip for stapling a screen
mesh: place the staples at an angle lo
the mesh. The staple then has more
material to grip and is more secure.
Similarly, set staples going through
fabric so that they are al "an angle lo
the weave.

A staple gun can also be used w

in place with one hand .while firing
the staple gun with the other.

Staple removal
Some fastening jobs, such as sta- .

are meant to be temporary. Here's a
way to make staple· removal hasslefree:

were at the tum of the century. Like
Teme, galvanized steel should' be
painted. This smooth, slick and shiny
surface must be etched or roughened
up before paint will adhere to it properly. Today, most of the major paint

TCS is type 304 stainless steel that's

Ra$h of church fires brings federal response
.By JENNIFER BROWN _Aaaoclated Pres1 Writer
WASHINGTON- A rash of fires at predominantly black churches in the
South has brought their people together, say pastors gathered to meet with
federal officials and comfort each other.
.
·
More lhan 100 people, including a 40-member choir and more than 30
visiting ministers, sang gospel songs, displayed charred remains from their
church buildings and prayed Sunday night at a service in a church near Capi·
tol Hill.
The clergymen were meeting today with Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin
• to discuss efforts by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Fireanns, a Trea.sury agency, to solve suspicious fires thai have struck 30 Southern church.es in the last 18 months.

The church leaders met Sunday with Allorney General Janet Reno on 'the

involvement of the FBI and other Justice Department units in the expanding investigation, which officials said now involves more than 200 federal
agents .
''The entire administrati.on is commilled to putting an end to these fires,
and we will continue to pursue these matters vigorously," Reno said in a statement afterward. "Acts of violence against the spiritual centers of our communities must be slopped. We will devote whatever resources are necessary
10 solve these crimes."
President Clinton made the same vow in a national radio address Saturday.
"Many, if not most of these fires are driven by racial hostility. That's got

today on CBS.

solidarity with (members of burned churches)."
"This is chance for the pastors 10 share with each other and draw strength
from each other before going back." said Rev. Terrance Mackey, whOse North
Carolina church was destroyed last June . "This is to show the unity, that people are pulling together. That we will noltake this lying down ." .
The council of churches, a New York-based interdenominational groqp,
arranged the meetings with the fedeml officials, to lei pastors venl frustrations with the fire investigations, which they ·say have focused more on the
church members and clergy than on outside suspects.
·
"The sense of dissatisfaction (among pastors} is not around the amount
of the investigation, but the sense of intimidation that they feel from inves·
ligators." Jones said Sunday on CNN's "Late Edition With Frank Sesno."

Metal roofing, while adding· a

often brings up questions regarding
maintenance and installation. As far
as painting gpes, Teme (copper and

72-hour drying time. This is followed
with a compatible linseed-oil finish
coat.

toats of the red iron-oxide primer,
which is the reason many of us pic,
