Nance was calling him a liar.
Freeman didn't get the apology and indicated be would gel legal

··- The eruption occurred when the board, in a rever.ial of its previous policy about not meeting open! y with members, chose to field questions from
members who asked for time to s~ak with the board.
Freemim, who bas alleged financial irregularities in BRECis operation
while Walter V. Truill Jr. was general manager, asked Nance bow he
could not have been aware of prOblems in the co~p.
Nance responded that "a lot of things that are not true" and "halftruths" were being circulated by Freeman and his groop.

With the first House test set for Wednesday, Republicans fmd themselves well shon of the two-thirds majority needed to approve a constitu.tinruil amendment. Plus, they are under attack by outside groups pushing .

The founding fathers committed "sort of an oversight" by failing to

Republicans
Years ago, a Soviet quack
named T.D. Lysenko developed a
theory that freeze-drying a wheat
seed can change its genes. The theory appealed to Joseph Stalin enormously; be apparently came to
belie.ve that the Revolution was
·occurring on a molecular level. Scientists reluctant 10 theorize accordingly soon became overqualified
workers in labor camps, commodiues mucb prized in corrununist systerns.
Here in the West? The Scientific
Method bas fallen faster than the
Berlin Wall. It's dead as the Great
Society, defunct as the counlerculture, as deceased as a nonessential
program. It's been replaced by the
Contract With America.
.
Take a look at Congress if you
want proof..Ironically, for all their
vaunted hatted of the '60s and their
self-styled can-do pragmatism, our

On what study did Mr. Bilirnkis
base his statement? His spokesman
(or lab assistant, I suppose) said
he'd received his information from

who'd used the shrimp example
during a congressional bearing last
year. That's all the proof we need!
That's· Republican· Science in

According to 'Pennsylvania Rep.
Robert Walker, an obscure federal
provision called the Delaney

caused one case of cancer per miilion people. Perhaps Mr. Walker

claimed that lhe. Girl Scouts must
sell 87,000 boxes of cookies in
order to cover their liability insur •
ance. True, the Girl Scot~ts admitted, but we've never been sued, we
have no position on frivolous lawsuits, and please leave us alone.
Plans .to use a Girl Scout in a tort

and the kid in the spot became a
Liitle Leaguer instead. Does this
mean that the next time Dad punches an umpire who calls Junior out.

baggies on his hands.) But doesn't
Newt Gingrich owe these women
. something? A retraining program
perhaps? Couldn't the Republicans

put them to work dolloping data

If Newt and his crowd can

of being socialists, and anyone who
grew up in the '60s (themselves
excepted) as perpetrators of a · ·
· "failed social exp,eriment," I
believe I'm safe in calling .them
neo-Stalinists.

It's just a word, after aU; words

would make me an "elitist." And

NEW YORK (AP) - · After

talks sprung to n~e J'ust hours after
a federal judge scheduled a bearing
for Friday Jbat could lead to the
end Of the Strike..
U.S. District Judge Sonia
Sotomayor, who was assigned lbe
case Monday, could issue a preliminary injunction that would end the
7 112-montb strike mere hours
before the season is set to start
Sunday night with replacement
players.
A few boors after ~otomayor's
30-minute scheduling session,

·Starting next year under the
plan. the portions of payrolls above
$44 million, or 108 percent of the
average, would be subject to a 50
percent luxury tax. That threshold
where the tax would begin is $3.3
million. or 8 percent, more than the
owners' previous proposal.
Owners, using many of the recommendations mediator WJ.

or to eliminate arbitration and

two games left in !be season."
In other games. St. Louis
downed Dallas 3-2 and Toronto

went to the backhand." Roy said:
" I thought I had it."
.
Mark Recchi scored .his ninth

Dear Ann Landers: A while b.:k,

As a former school bus driver, I
disagree. Reason: The driver is
responsible for all passengers. In a

• With six Academy Awards on

Indeed, "d'ump's" journey has·

through history. It's now No. 4 on
the all-time box office list, with
: more than $317 million in Nonb
American ticket sales.
" I don't know if it was destiny
or if it was chance that brought
together the talented cast and
extraordinary crew of 'Forrest

Slarlcey said in accepting for best
picture. "But maybe, as Forrest
said, 'Maybe it was both, maybe
both were happening at 'the same

Dianne Wiest's Oscar for best

category and her second for a
Woody .Allen film. She also won

day, June 14. At 2:30 a.m .• .on
Sunday, June 15, when the fire was
raging, another call was received to
the effect
."I told you there would be some
·excitement".
Pomeroy ftre111en bad received a
call to the inn at 11:59 p.m. Saturday and at firSt attempted to fight
the ftre from inside the building .
However, the ftre was already out'
of control. Tbe blaze, accordi~g 10
reports at the time, started in the
stairway area between the second
and third tloors of the structure.
Water from the ftre fighting poured
into the New York Clothing House
which was located under the inn.
The store had been in the location
since about 1897. A pizza facility,
a building housing the City Loan
and Miele's Barber Shop, all on .the
front street level were among other
businesses affected by the ftre,
At the time of the blaze in 1986,
plans had been completed for ihe
complete renovation of the inn and
direc10rs of the investment corporation were expecting approval of a
$900,000 government block grant
momentarily so they could move
ahead with the extensive improvemeniS. The directors had planned
to spend about $1.5 million on the
project. Losses just after the ftre
were estimated at a half million.
The structure was finally razed
and wilb it went a part of
Po111eroy' s histo~y. Originally
· known as lllc Remington House,
the first structure on the site was
buill in 1847 and was at first a
three story frame building housing
the Remington store. It was
destroyed in the fire of 1856.
However. in 1857, William H.
~emington, who had built the origmal structure, had rebuilt and was
advertising' hotel accommodations.
However, fire struck agl!ln in 1896. .
The building was rebuilt in late
1890's and thai was the structure
extensively gutted by the 1986 fire.

lifter I passed along the request
of Scott Walton for photos of tlle
'Meigs·Inn, Faye Wolfe sent along a
newspaper account of the hOle! ftre
which seriously threatened the
entire middle block of the Pomeroy
business section.

ventured, "I'm tellin' ya, American Express can't buy publicity
like that. ..
· He returned 10 the gag after a
commercial: "Bad news, ladies

opened an economic forum to defend his fiscal policies but conceded "the news is not all good."
Ticking off a list of rosy economic figures, Clinton said his work

growing economy.
"Even when limes are good, people think things are changing so
'fast their level or security ... is more fragile than it ha.~ been in the
