Per capita consumption of pork is expected to decline by 7 percent this year, the biggest drop since 1982, USDA says. Little improvement is forecast for 1997. · The nation's hog inventory on June I was down 4 percent from a year earlier. Hog prices are forecast to average in the mid- to high-$50s per 100 pounds this summer before declining into the low $50s this fall and winter. But the fall of 1997 should see a mark in the high-$40s, USDA says. Retail pork prices are exceeding forecasts. The composite price probably averaged near $2.12 a pound in ihe April-June quarter, up 22 cents from a year earlier. A major factor is sharply higher bacon prices, caused by bacon's growing popularity in fast-food outlets and a .tow stock of pork bellies, from which bacon is made. USDA projects a retail average between $2.10and $2.15 a pound for the next 18 months , meaning an increase of 8 percent to 10 percent from 1995. Prices for 1997 are likely to remain at this year 's levels.

If they are past bloom like shasta daisies, daylilies, hostas make sure you cut off the dead bloom stalks. This is called "deadheading". The energy the plant would have spent on producing seed will be utilized by the plant to produce more bloom this year or increase the food stored for better bloo~ next year. Most rose varieties beqefit from deadheading as it encourages repeat flowering and removes a potential disease harboring site.

Navy workers trying to map out what is believed to be the main piece of wreckage from the TWA flight were stymied Sunday when equipment failure kept them from videotaping the scene. Investigators planned to try again today to identify the I5-foot-high object rising from the ocean floor. A Navy ship left Norfolk, Va., early this morning to deliver an unmanned, underwater robot that will help divers search for wreckage. · " Hopefully, we will find this airplane, " Kallstrom said. Searchers planned to videotape the crash site, which could be as wide as a mile, before sending down divers. Divers were sent out Sunday to search for bodies, however. The Boeing 747's two recorders for cockpit conversations and flight data, the so-called black boxes, had not been found , nor were investigators hearing any telhalc "pings" that are released from the recorders. Investigators said if the boxes were lying under certain types of metal it might prevent the sounds from being picked up. While officials said there was still no evidence the plane was downed by a bomb. they were eager to inspect the fuselage for clues. Time was running short, they said, since the chemical remains of plastic explosives would begin to fade after a week . The debris may also hold the passengers whose bodies have not been recovered, Kallstrom said. Also Sunday, families of the victims gathered at dozens of memorial services across the country. Many said they believed officials were not doing enough to identify the victims. "Anger is without ·question the predominant fe eling, " among the families, said Red Cross counselor Dottie Brier. •• Jt is increasing and increasing."

The FBI is .investigating allegations that some of that money may have ended up in Gov. George Voinovich's campaign fund, the newspaper said. Richard Hobbs, executive director of the Association of General Contractors, told the newspaper that he was investigated by the State Highway Patrol after he complained about alleged contract improprieties. He believes the investigation was in retaliation for hi s complaint. The Enquirer reported Sunday that the FBI is investigating alleged improprieties, including kickbacks. However, citing FBI and U.S. Department of Justice sources it did not identify, the newspaper said there was no evidence that Voinovich knew about the alleged improprieties. "The governor had no knowledge that there was a preliminary investigation and he has said we will full y cooperate if there is such an investigation," Mik.c Dawson, the governor's spokesman, said Sunday. Hobbs contends that in March 1994 he informed the governor's top aides of a rumor that Fred Forbes, who oversaw the awarding of multimillion-dollar state construction contracts, ha~ ponions of his home remodeled by a finn that received such contracts. The governor 's office responded by asking the patrol to investigate Forbes. The investigation ultimately cleared him . But Hobbs said !t was made clear to him that he should back off "or things were going to get rouah." • After a four-month investigatio~. the patrol closed the case, saying no criminal charges were warranted, patrol records show. Thc Enquirer reported Sunday that David Stunz, formerly Ohio's inspector general, provided the FBI with information about possible contract-steering. The inspector general 's office is responsible for investigating possible wrongdoing in the executi ve branch of state government. Stunz had launched several invesligations that targeted high-ranking Voinovich appointees before the gnvemor fired him in January 199S. The Enquirer said its sources declined to identify any contracton, but the investigation could involve actions by Paul Mifsud, the governor 's chief of staff. Mifsud, 49, announced.last month that he is resigning effective Friday. He faces separate investigations by the Ohio Ethics Commission and by current Inspector General Richard Ward in connection with remodeling and expansion work a state contrac- tor perfonned at the home of Mifsud's then -fiancee . Mifsud could not be reached for comment. The telephone number for hi s Marysville residence is not publishcd. The Enquirer said Sturtz confirmed that. the inspector general 's offi~:e had rec ~ ived a whistlcblowcr's report alleging that Forbes, fonnerly the director of the Ohio Department of Administrative Services' Division of_ Public Works, steered state construction-related contracts to political friend.~ . · A telephone mess1ge seeking comment was left Sunday on an answering machine at the residence of a Fred forbes in the Columbus area.

Ohio sits out wars with tobacco firms By PAUL SOUHRADA A11oclated Preea Writer COLUMBUS - When Connecticut last week became the lOth state to announce it sued the tobacco industry over money spent on smoking-related illnesses, some anti-smoking activists in Ohio were itching to jump on the bandwagon. The answer from Columbus? Hold on a minute. Officials with the stale chapters of the American Cancer Society, the American Heart Association ami the American Lung Association already had . sent a letter to Attorney General Betty Montgomery.·on March 8, urging her to join the fray. Ohio taxpayers spend $168 million a year in Medicaid covering smoking-related illnesses, and 18,000 Ohioans die annually from diseases linked to tobacco, the groups ar{lled . About one in four adult Ohioans smokes, according to the state health depanment. Connecticut seeks $1 billion in punitive damages and the cost of treating lung cancer, heart di sease, emphysema and other illnesses covered by Medicaid. The lawsuit is also aimed at ending what the Connecticut attorney general called aggressive marketing of tobacco products to youngsters. The tobacco lobby has dismissed the lawsuits as election-year posturing, and argued that tobacco is a legal product ta<ed by the states. Montgomery did meet with fellow attorneys general in Chicago last sprinr to plot strategies and discuss the lawsuits. The nine other states that hav< sued are Florida, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachuseus. Minnesota, Mississippi , Texas. Washington and West Virginia. Other states, including New Jersey and Arizona, have said they plan similar action. Right now. Montgomery is waiting for a repon from staffers who are fol lowing up on that meeting, said Mark Weaver, deputy attorney generaL Weaver said Montgomery at first wanted to move quickly on the issue. But she backed off after questions came up over the cost of the legal fight , and states staned taking different legal tacks. "She wants to evaluate the chances of success before moving," he added. " That's a substantial commitment of resources." Despite the delay, ~e anti-smoking groups remain optimistic Montgomery will foll ow the other states' lead, said Janet Studer, director of government relations for the Lung Association. "Certainly we would have loved Qhio to have filed suit by now," Ms . Studer acknowledged. " Bull don 't think she- has totally given up on it." She pomted to one hopeful sign: rumors that leading Ohio law.lirms are studying up on the tobacco lawsuits in hope of landing a role in the litigalion. " I don 't think they would take that step unless they thought she was going to move in that direction ." Today in history By The Associated Press Today is Monday, July 22, the 204th day of 1996.

I I I By Jack Anclereon and Jan Mollor WASHINGTON House · Democrats recently got a first-hand taste of what it's like to be on the receiving end of a political shakedown. During a " special" caucus held in the Capitol, Democrats who had not contributed at least $5,000 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee this year were implored to repent by their high priests -- and warned that control of the House was hanging in the balance. The unusual plea strains federal campaign law, which bans political fund raising on federal propeny, including the Capitol. Even if legal, · the strong-arming clashes with the moral outrage summoned by House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt of Missouri and other Democrats when it was revealed that Republicans had distributed money from tobacco interests on the House floor. In a theme described by one con· gressional source as "come to Jesus, bring your $5,000," DCCC chief Martin Frost of Texas served as the full-throat&! pitch-man. A congressional sowce with direct knowledge of last month's meeting By Jack Anderson · and Jan Moller r said "it was billed as the most important caucus this year" -- though other meetings have run the gamut from Medicare to education. "They got in there and went over everybody with a fine-toothed comb or a wire bush about who (had) contributed to the caucus and who had ... raised money," said one source. Democratic leaders passed out flyers listing who had -- and had not -- paid $5,000 to the committee in 1995. The aim was to shame deadbeat Democrats. "They showed who paid the five grand last year. There was an empty box next to tbe names of those who hadn't paid," said a congressional source. .....__ HURRY UP HONEY, THE'% CAMPA16N COVERA6E ISSTARTIN6 JA~ LEND ] To a large extent, sources say, the DCCC spokeswoman Tricia PrimDemocratic leaders have chosen an rose confirmed the fund-raising took unlikely model for their efforts: place at the Capitol.

"We take great pains and go to great lengths to make sure that any fund raising that's done is done out of government buildings as that's 11 violation of federal law," Veith said . To be sure, Gephardt has held Republicans to a higher standard oh the tobacco issue. "We're not interested in an inquiry and a discussion of what was legal under the rules." Gephardt said earlier this · ycal. "What we are interested in is stopping a practice that we think shoul& not have been allowed under the rules . · , These are heady days l'br Democrats, who have a shot al recapturing the House, but need a big warchest to do it The DCCC has raked in over $21 million this election cycle, $6 million more than at a similar point in the last cycle, Primrose said.

' A human rights .e vent at th·e Olympics· By Nat Hantoff The city of Atlanta held a contest for a slogan that would best illustrate why the city was chosen for the international eclat that goes with hosting the 1996 Olympic Games. The winner: "Atlanta -- Come Celebrate Our Dream." Also keeping track of Atlanta's self-celebration was Amnesty International. That human rights organization was especially taken with what Atlanta said in its application for the games. Atlanta, its officials said proudly, ''embodies the values of human libeny and equality. As the binhplace of the Civil Rights Movement and for many, the modem capital' of human rights, Atlanta reflects the high ideals of Olympism." But Atlanta is the crown jewel of the stale of Georgia. where the death penalty -- as Amnesty has noted in a documented report to be released at the Olympics -- is implemented in a "racist, arbitrary and unfair manner." The report tells, for instance, of a study of capital cases that were heard in tbe judicial district of Chauahoochee. During the 27 years covered by the study, "the death penalty was never sought for a murder of a black by a white. " Amnesty is becoming an in sistent presence at the Olympics in coordination with Human Rights Watch and the Atlanta-based Southern Center for Human Rights. The latter law firm, which never lacks for clients on death rows in II Southern states, is headed by Steve Bright. For years, he has Nat Hentoff been recruiting new law school graduates around the country to go into low-paid but highly energizing work on death-penalty cases. " It 's a real embarrassment," Bright told the Atlanta Constitution as he was warming up for the human rights Olympics, " when South Africa has done away with capital punishment, the state of Georgia is still burning people up in the electric chair." The Amnesty events have been · organized by the Western European section of Amnesty. There will be an educational and organizing tour of Georgia by Amnesty members and staff from various countries that have outlawed capital punishment. (Of course, most of the civilized world no longer kills in the name of justice, and many nations arc astonished at how primitive we remain .) These human rights visitors will spend time in cities and towns in Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. Meanwhile, Amnesty will be presenting a petition with nearly 500,000 signatures from around the world calling on Georgia Gov. Zell Miller, a Democrat, to declare a moratorium on new death sentences and on executions until a new COinmission of Inquiry has been established to look into charges of racism and arbitrary imposition of the death penalty. Amnesty is also sending its report on the culture of judicial death in Georgia to federal authorities in the hope that the Justice Department will look into whether some people get onto death row by affirmative action. The organizers would also like to have these delegates from abroad visit indigenous death rows, but Georgia authorities may n9t permit prisoners convicted of murder to manifest-human qualities to strangers. Tbe film version of "Dead Man Walking" may have been a mite too redeeming of a monster about to be terminated . The designers of Amnesty 's peaceful march through Georgia hope for press attention in the cities and towns through which they will travel . A.nd they expect wide coverage in the European press because of the Europeans who have come here to persuade Georgia and other Southern states to at least do away with the racism and lack of due process in their systems of sometime justice. Amnesty points out that while its "ultimate aim is the total abolition of the death penalty in Georgia and the U.S.A., we are urging the Georgia authorities to review the racial amj arbitrary usc of the death penalty i4 ' the state as a step towards aliolition ~ · We arc not urging the Georgia authorities to abolish the death penalty, as'' we feel it would be unrealistic and possibly counterproductive at thi~ srage . " · Two hundred million Amcri,ans· arc expected to watch the Olympic.; on NBC. I wonder if any of the sportscasters, especially those doing color, will say anything about the Amnesty events to slow down state killings. Mayhc film star Susan' Sarandon could be interviewed" brieny on NBC about why she made " Dead Man Walking" and what she' learned about residents on death rows in the process. To provide balance to the story,: the president could he interviewed on why he is such an enthusiastic sup-• porter of the death penalty that he has led in the near destruction of habeaS: . corpus, thereby ensuring that some innocent prisoners will be >executed heforc they can get federal coun< to · thoroughly review their cases. Amnesty should bring its tour hus to" the White House. Nat Hentoff is a nationallY' · renowned authority 011 the Fint1\mendment and the resfof the Bill· of Rights. ,. Bob and Liddy: This year's twofer ... . The Dally $entlnel ! Page 3 Pomeroy • Middleport, Ohio Monday, July 22,1998 or less agreed that Dole should hencefonh speak only in " message modules." He will eschew the media, make no more sarcastic remarks, utter By Joeeph Spear If you plan to vote Republican this fall , it is beginning to look as if you 'II be getting two for the price of one. -- lsn 't that an interesting tum of events? Remember how Bill Clinton got roasted for saying Hillary was a full partner and that a vote for him was a twofer? Now it appears that Bob Dole's wife Elizabeth has begun to take charge of his "message, " meaning she is tell[ng him what 1o say and how to say it. Personally, I have no quarrel with strong husband-wife teams, but I am iotrigued by the irony and am curi.ous to see how the radical right handles this tum of eyents. Elizabeth's move .to mold Bob's message came in tjae wake of a =e.nt " unity" luncheon with tbe candidate and his former primary foes. Dole had been floundering in the polls and had just experien<:ed a bellacious spell of gaffes !llld his Campaign handlers were desperate for idcu on how to discipline him. So everybody !llln Joseph Spear no more jokes that are comprchcnsible only to those who live inside the Beltway. One official present told the Washington Post that from now on, Dole would "focus on three broad themes: more economic opponun~ty, smaller government and stronger, safer fam iJies." · That luncheon powwow occurred at mjdday, on July 16. On the evening of July 16, Bob and Elizabeth went on CNN's " Larry King Live," and the host, famed for his fearless, probing jnterrogations of the powerful, posed the daunting question: "What messages do you feel you haven 't gotten across?" · Eli~ answered: "The mes- SIJC is very ;trong. I think it's more • opponunities, it's smaller government, it's stronger and safer families , Larry, if you wanted to just sum it up." For the rest of the interview, Bob took his cues from Eli1.abeth. She cut him off and changed the subject when he staned to meander. She touched his arm or squeezed his shoulder when he tried to get off one of hi s humorou s lines. ' Again , I say that I personally find such exchange s endearing. I believe ,this is what husbands and wives are supposed to do -- help each other. But ean 'i you see the boys in the backroom who think Elizabeth ought to be home swabbing floors and sticking cloves in baked hams? They must be chomping their cigars in frustration: There goes the Hillary issue. I think it is about time somebody started managing Bob Dole.

Burnitz's HRs help Indians beat Twins 7-5 CLEVELAND (AP) - Jeromy Bumitz will be getting many more opportunities to power the Cleveland Indians 10 victory. Burnitz, who has been sharing the designated-hitter role with Eddie Murray, hit two ho~rs that gave the Indians the lift needed Sunday to beat the Minnesota Twins 7-5. After the game, the Indians traded Murray, who has 491 career home runs. to Baltimore for pitcher Kent Merckcr. "What Jeromy did today was not unexpected. When he hits the ball it really jumps off his bat. Until he plays regularly it is difficult to project what he will do. J;lut you cancertainly say he 's a power hitter," Indians manager Mike Hargrove said. Bumitz, who has six homers this season, had thnec hits to boost his batting average to .300. " I just go up there looking for a good pitch to hii," Bumitz said. "Tbey were strikes, so I swung. Everyone has different philosophies on hilling. Mine is to sec it and hit it. .. A crowd of 42,341 , the IOOth straight sellout at Jacobs Field, saw a game that featured six lead changes. Jack McDowell (9-6) won his third straight despite yielding five runs on 10 hits in 6 ')J3 innings. He struck out six and walked one. Eric Plunk struck out three of the four batters he faced and Paul SKuey pitched the mnth, eamtng his founh save. . - Many Cordova raised his career average to .750 (6-for-8) against McDowell. He had an RBI single in · the first, a two-run double in the third and hit his eighth homer, a solo shot, in the fifth. Brad Radke (5-13) yielded seven runs on 12 hits over seven innings. He walked two and struck out seven. "We made too many mistakes against a tough team to win," Twins manager Tom Kelly said. "W~ gave them extra outs and paid the price. " First baseman Jeff Reboulet tripped over pitcher Radke while ttying to catch an infteld popup and the next bauer, Bumitz, followed with a two-run homer in the fifth inning. "All I did was go after the ball," Rcboulet said. " I heard someone yell 'Take it,· and I ran into somebody. lt turned out to be a big play, I guess." play. Adam Rickard's bunt in front of th~ mound set up a situation in which Roush beat reliever Nick Dalton's throw to the plate to score. Later, Adam Rickard scQred on a throwing error to third by catche~ Brandon Smith on a pickoff allcmpt. Then Moose Raban. who walked, scored the tying run on a wild pitch during Van Meter's at-bat. After the Body Shop finished its half of the sixth with no runs and a runner left on base, Dalton started the seventh by striking out Brad White and getting Heath Rickard to ground out. Dalton, one out away from keeping Mason from gelling a runner on base, saw Hankinson come to the plate. · Like Dalton's stay on the bases in the MBS sixth, Hankinson's stay wasn't long. But Hankinson, who ainnailed Dalton's 1-0 pitch beyond the center field fence, was too busy running the bases celebrating gelling the run that proved lo be the most important or the game.

(AP) - Rusty Wallace is having one of those strange seasons when he's either on top of the world or wallowing in the depths. In 17 races. the former Winston Cup champion has won four times - second only to five-time winner and defendin& series champ Jeft Gordon. Yet Wallace is an unremarkable eighth in the season standings, trailing leader Terry Labonte by 418 pointS. "I've had enough time to lose those points and I've got enough time to gain them back again," Wallace said Sunday after a somewhat startling victory in the Miller 500 at Pocono Raceway. But, over the past II races, dat: ing to the last week of March, Wallace has alternately finished in the top seven or 30th or worse. Asked about finally ending that rollercoaster ride with his win Sunday, following a seventh-place finish the previous week at Loudon, N.H.. Wallace grimaced and said, "Somebody asked me about that up and down stuff the other day and I told him to go away. I didn't want to hear about it. Now I don't have to worry about that any more." This time, Wallace staned 13th in the 4 I:car field and hung around the ' top I0 throughoutthe 200-lap event. but didn't contend until the last 40 laps. He took his only lead with 30 laps n=maining and held off a strong challenge from Ricky Rudd to earn the 45th victory of his career and his third win on Pocono's 2.5-mile trioval. "I qualified bad again," Wallace said with some irritation evident in his tone. "Then I had to work my way up through the leaders and the anyone associated with this game." The U.S. women are favored to win gold, having won three straight world championships with only one loss in international play over the past decade. In another historic moment. women •s soc:ecr made its Olympic debut with the favored United States outshooting Denmark 24-0 in a 3-0 victory before more than 20,0QO fans in Orlando, Fla. "When you wail! into an arena like that, it's easy to be overwhelmed," said Mia Hamm, whQ,. had a t;oal and assist for the United" States. "I'll never forget that feeling for the rest of my life." Another favored women's team looked ju5t as impressive in its debUt Sunday. The basketball squad, unbeaten on its 52-game preOlympic tour, ran by Cuba 101-84 as Lisa Leslie scored 24 points. And the U.S. women's gymnastics team got in position for its firstever team championship, barely finishing behind the Russians in the compulsories to set up a Tuesday night fight for gold. The Americans were in the same position four years ago, but wound up with the bronze.

Then we were able to make a race of it." · , The race was slowed b¥ a fourcar incident on lap two, but it then remained under the green nag for IS7 laps before a piece of debris brought out another yellow flig on lap 160. That was when Wallace finally was able to make the adjustments that got him to the front. The 1989 Winston Cup champion drove his Ford Thunderbird across the finish line about five carlengths - or 0.3 seconds - ahead of Rudd's Ford. Mark Martin. who started from the pole and led seven times for 12i laps. was out front when the second caution flag waved. He effectively dropped from contention, though, when his team had a problem with an air gun and had to make a second stop to change his right rear tire . When the green nag came out on lap 155, Wallace was second and began hounding Rudd, who is winless this season, finally driving past him on the inside as they raced through tum two. "Ricky was f&Ster than me in tum one, but I was beuer than him in turns two and three," Wallace said. "As long as I had the advantage in two out of three, I knew it was soing to he OK." Wallace's winning speed of 144.892 mph broke the old tl11Ck record of 144.023 set by Alan Kulwicki in June 1992. Dale Jarrett finished third, nearly passing Rudd on the la.<tlap.

"I had all the chances but could not get a putt away," said Faldo, who spun out short birdie putts on both the fifth and sixth holes. "He shot a great score this week- a very good total .... I don't think I ever really challenged him. I was always at least three behind." Faldo said the unusually dry, calm weather during the week allowed low scoring and "was the key for Lehman. It gave him that cushion." Els also pulled within two, getting to 12-under for the tournament with a birdie at No. 4. And Fred Couples, who had five birdies on the front nine to go 12-undcr, also got within two.

Alex Young draws his face into a military· stare as relatives and friends watch him accept the Eagle Scout medal , scouting is highest achievement, a pewter symbol that means Young is the embodiment of the Boy Scout Jaw - trustwonhy, loyal, brave and reverent. The atmosphere is one of a family reunion - people swap warm embraces, pinched cheeks and photo flashes. Their expectations also hang from Young's chest. Society views Eagle Scouts "differently- with mpre respect," says Alex, 18, who hopes the award's prestige will help land him a spot at -the U.S. Naval Academy, or open other career doors. "They expect more from you than the avertge person." Hilario Duncan, Alex 's father. and a former scout who never made it to Eagle, says the achievement always reflects well on a boy. The Eagle Scout shows "disciplfne, perseverance, an attitude of · hard work, character," says Dun- · can. "It shows me that he's a responsible person. What you have to do to attain the rank is very hard." Only 2.5 percent of all Boy Scouts earn the Eagle -one of the first great accomplishments of youth and a distinction for life, scouting officials say. "Anywhere you go, you will always be an Eagle Scout," Glen Bush, a scouting executive, tells Alex and other newly pinned · Eagles.

There are many reasons for changing jobs - a promotipn, a change in career focus, even a layoff. Regardless of the reason, you may wonder if it will affect your Social Security if you change jobs. Most likely it won't. No matter how many times you change Jobs, you never lose the Social Security protection you've already earned. And you continue earning that valuable protection for you and your family as long as you work a job that's covered by Social Security. Although there's no difference in how you earn Social Security protection. a job change could mean a difference in how you pay ACCIDENTAL REUNION • Gina Crimi, laft, poses with her daughter, Traci Trobl, 15, in North Royalton.

If you're paid a salary, your employer deducts 7.65 percent from your gross pay, matches the deduction dollar for dollar and sends both amounts, along with a report of your earnings, to the government. If, however, you are self-employed, as are S.l million of the 143 million current workers, you pay your Social Security and Medicare taxes directly to the government. It's not uncommon for a person to switch from a salaried job to selfemployment and when that ~appens he or she may , wonder how that affects his or her Social Security. For example, a woman recently called our office to ask how she would pay Social Security· now that she had changed her career. Mary McDonald had worked for large company for 15 years when her I job was eliminated because business dropped · off. Fortunately, Mary's experience and knowledge enabled her to form her own consulting bul•ness. But she no longer has the convenience of having Social Security taxes withheld from her paycheck; and she doesn't have an employer to share the tax expense. Mary pays the entire 15.3 percent of her salary. Each year, she files her taxes and reports her annual net earnings on IRS Schedule SE (for self-employment). Mary pays her Social Security and Medicare taxes as part of her quarterly tax filing . In 1996, she will pay 12.4 percent in Social Security and 2.9 percent in Medicare taxes on net earnings up to $62,700. If she earns above $62,700, she'll pay the 2.9 percent Medicare tax on the rest of her earnings. Self-employed persons get two KCtourney income tax deductions that reduce tbeir tax liability. The deductions are intended to make sure self-employed people are treated in much the same way as employers and employees for Social Security and income tax purposes. First, an individual's net profit from self-employment is reduced by 7.65 percent when determining net self-employment income. Second, self-employed persons can deduct half of their self-employment tax on the face of the IRS Form 1040. It can't be an itemized deduction and must not be listed on the Schedule C.

Only 2.500 Gold Awards are given each year, compared to about 35,000 Eagle Scout awards. Also, the Eagle award is older - first awarded in 1910 - than the Gold Award, initiated in 1980. The road to the Gold Award is similar to the one leading to the Eagle. Girls must earn four interest project patches, a Career Exploration Pin, the Senior Girl Scout Leadership Award and the Senior Girl Scout Challenge. They also complete a community service project.

Continued on page 3 By TOM HUNTER Sentinel News Staff Officials with the village of Middleport and volunteers have worked countless hours to make repairs and renovations to the 46-year old Middleport Pool, in hopes the facility would be open to swimmers this summer. The only problem is, how do you open a pool when you can't keep water in it? That's the question Mayor Dewey Horton and tncmbers of the Middleport Recreation Commission have been asking themselves, as they seck an an,Wer to a drain problem that is delaying the pool's opening. "We are trying several different approaches to the problem with the main drain. Our last resort is to jackhammer concrete to replace the drain . We're not looking at that as a viable option. now. We have to get this pool open," said Horton at Monday's regular meeting of Middleport Council. Officials had planned to have the pool open over the Fourth of July hoiiday weekend, but attempts to fill the pool proved unsuccessful after scveral thousand gallons of water drained from the pool after it was filled, according to Horton. The drain problem will most likely be corrected with placement of a Ii ·~tcmporllry shutoff.valve on top of the bottom of the pool. "We hope to have the pool open next week , but at this point we can't make any promises to that effect," Horton said. Senate to vote on welfare proposal . WASHINGTON (AP) - Presi dent Clinton, who has vetoed two previous welfare overhaul bills, con tinues to send mixed messages on the future of legislation that would over,i~rn the longstanding federal guarantee of assistance to the poor. :: Clinton on Monday said he and ~ngrcss were "very close" to agree- ., menton basic elements of legislation that would move people from welfare to work, ending the entitlement that has made the poor eligible for an array of benefits. "We shouldn 't let the opportunity slip from our grasp, " Clinton said in Denver. "But neither should we pass a bill that says 'welfare reform' at the top. but really winds up still being very tough on children, including children from already working families." The Senate was to vote on about two doze n amendments today before taking final action on ots boll . The House p;.~ ~scJ ils o wn measure lasl Council approved an ordinance on an emergency basis, correcting a right of way problem which is hampering construction by Vaughan's IGA Supermarket on Beech Street. The ordinance narrows the right of way on Beech Street , between Gcneral Hartinger Boulevard and Laurel Street from 70 feet to 60 feet . The change will now allow Vaughan's to continue with the planned move of their current warehouse facility one block west to Beech Street . The move of the warehouse is part of extensive renovations work at the Middleport supermarket, which will include_construction of a major store expansoon.
