Stockton's clutch three-pointer helps Jazz top Cavs,89-87

So Stockton. the NBA's all -time
leader in assists, did the next best
thing Thursday night, si nking a

three-point shot at the buzzer to lift
the Utah Jazz past the Cleveland
Cavaliers 89-87.
Stockton's shot denated a crowd
of 16.4 12 that had see n Dan Majerlc hit a three-pointer for an 87-86
Cleveland lead with 3.6 seconds to

play.
"There wasn't much time to do

"It would have had to happen pretty qu1ckly, a pass and a shot."

Terrell Brandon and Michael Cage
ran toward him.

Malone.

call Nike about these shoes," Brandon joked. "I fell down and tried to
recover. I recovered and then Karl

Brandon, who was guarding
Stockton , slipped as the play l&gt;cgan

White and Martie Holter filled in at
wing. Both were credited with exemplary play. Nelson's step-up to run
the offense was_a crucial part of the
game, according to Wolfe . "Nicole 's
floor play in this stretch was crucial
in our comeback. She ran the offense
very, very well, while Jessica (Brannon) and Rebecca (Evans) picked up
the slack defensively."
Eastern fell behind 12-4, then
mounted a gallant comeback, cul minatin g on a three pointer at the

fourth quarter, seemed to have the
game in hand after Adam Keefe's
tip-m put them ahead 85-79 wtth
24.2 seconds left.
Poor foul shooting let Cleveland

missed a couple, then they got on an

fighting back, because that game

The Internet may be a new publishing medium in itself. but it's also giving a boost to good old-fas hi oned book publishing. Hundreds of new titles
are appearing·on bookstore shelves, from World Wide Web d11ectories (some
with COs) tu treatises on how the Net will change our lives.
Whether you're shopping for last-minute holiday gifts or JUSt lookmg for
a good read, here 's a roundup of recent and upcomi ng cyber-titles:
For a hip and comprehensive guide to the Web, you can't go wrong with
" Yahoo' Unplugged " (IDG Books Worldwide, $39.99 with CD). It contains
extensive listings by eight ex pens in health , entertainment, business and other areas. It also red1ps the success story of David Filo and Jerry Yang. who
founded Yahoo . the popu lar on-line Web directory.
More se(ious students of the Net might prefer Ed Krol's classic "The
Whole Internet User's Guide and Catalog" (O'Reilly and Associates,
. $24.95). updated for Windows 95 w1th Paula Ferguson. It includes Net hi story. how -tos and a brief catalog . Also just out: a fourth edition of Brendan

Claims must be accompanied by

The new law says any supplement
is considered sare unless the FDA
proves it otherw ise.
That measure took two years of
congressional wrangling - and
more than 2 million pieces or consumer mail - springing in part from
rears that the FDA might end up
yanking many popular supplements
rrom shelves over safety concerns.
"That battle was based on people's philosophical beliefs: 'We're
taking it. We want to continue taki ng
it. Get out or our faces,... says Roy
Upton, president of the American

Zeller said.
The law req uires that a sevenmember Commi ssion on Dietary

And it 's going to be a long
process, Zeller sa id .

Insects cost Vermont millions of

"Eradication is not in my vocabulary." Turrnel said. " It's suppression."
He's deve loped a certain fondness

antennae can be three times as long

:'Nixon': cinematic character study on a grand scale

Le"r and pan Julius Cae sar

cmatic charaCier study on a grand

To create it. Stone employed a
large cast and wealth of film technique . includm g the m1xed media,
qu1ck cuts and almost &gt;ubliminal
cd11in g famili ar to viev. cr~ \\ hu have
see n " JFK. ..
One thing Stone has not done
wJth " NJXon." is a hatc het job.

ex ample. rcrsonal d1alog ue he tween
Nixon and hi; wife ha1 bee n creat ed

However, Stone' s reputation for
conspiracy theories is large ly absent
from "Ntxon." There is a vague suggestion that some unnamed Republican power brokers in Texas had reason !o believe John Kennedy wouldn't live 10 run for re-election, but,
despite pre-product1 on news repons,
Stone never implies that Nixon was
pan of an y assassmation schemes.
Nixon also is depicted as harboring susp1 ctons about Kennedy and
the Cuban Bay of Pigs debacle that
go heyond the public record. However. Stone uses this as a device to
exp lore Ni .&lt;on's obsession and rivalry w11h the Kenncdys, ratherthan as
a con&gt;piracy worth unearthing.
"Nixon .. opens on a White House
und er the shadow of Watergate. Our
first glimpse of Nixon is a bedraggled man with a five-o'clock shadow. nervously sipping Scotch. He 's
alone. li stening to hi s tapes of Oval
Office conversati ons about the infamous break-in and the resulting cov-

er-up.
And, as he listens, Nixon remembers back to earlier years in politics.
then fanher back 10 his childhood,
spent on what he always called "the
poorest lemon ranch in California."
Stone sees much of the later
Nixon being fanned in childhood with a cold fi sh of a father and a
graceful but domineering mother
with strict re ligious convictions. In
one of the fi lm 's most poignant
moments, the young Nixon puts his
head on his mother's lap and say s.
"Mother, think of me always as your
faithful dog ."
All the expected moments from
the Nixon career are here :
• Hi s years as a Red-baiting anor-

ney for Congress;
• his vice presidency ;
• his infamous "C heckers"
spe.ech·
·
'
I
• the landmark Nix on-Kennedy
debates;
• the 1960 and '62 political losses and stunning '68 comeback ;
• the Vietnam struggles at home
and abroad, mcluding the campai gn
to bomb Cambodia and his infonnal
~ight- time debate wi th random protesters inside the Lincoln Memorial:
- the unraveling of power
because of the Watergate scandal.
and his final farewell to thts hi s staff

Less ingratiating is the on-a ndoff-and -on romance
between
Gustafson 's daughter (Daryl Hannah) and Goldman's son (Kevin
Pollak). Fortunately, they come on
screen just enough to allow the ir talented elders a chance to rest.
The direction by Howard Deutch

straightforward, but lacks the cri sp

The only thing harder than
rememberin g the words to one of
this season's fa vorite carols. "The 12
Days of Christmas." may be explaining it.
Music scholars and historians are
all but certain the verses , whose writ ten roots can be traced IO the early
1700s, made JUSt as little sense then
as they do today.
But in darker times, the phrases
served a purpose , according to
Roman Catholic, Episcopal and
Anglican church lore surrounding
' "12 Days."
•.
" It was like the nursery rhymes
that kept the faith hidden ," says the
Rev. Alvin Fogel4u ist. an Episcopal
priest and church history buff in
Seattle. "The problem is there are a
lot of people in this day and age who
are very rational in their approach lo
things. and who don't give much credence to legends or traditions.
" But we know that behind legends and traditions often is a fact."
A catchy tunc has helped make
"12 Days" a holiday standard since
1864 , when the music and words
first appeared together in "Songs of
the Nativity." (Husk) an Engli sh collection of carols.
As for the song's ongins. the
" New Oxford Book of Carols"
(Oxford Uni versity Press ) says " 12
Days" derives from a traditional
memory game played on Ep(phany,
lhe 12th day after Christmas (Janurary 6).
"Each player would have to
remember and recite the obJects
named hy !he previous players and
!hen add one more ." the " Book of
Carol&gt;" states.
Jack Sullivan. a music historian
and !he chair of American Studies at
Rider University, says the original
" 12 Days" celebrated not Chrislmas
but the pagan turn of the year.
"I've been interested in it for
years." he said " Many of the c arol~
are pre-Christian ."
But the lore preached from pulpits and told in books, church digests

There , the story was told in a

Joseph Walter of New York City.
"I don't remember where I got
it" he said.
And so it goes.
" It makes a nice swry ... says
Bruce Miller, head librarian at Washington's Catholic University. " But
the las! time I looked at ' 12 Days.·
I cou ldn 't come up with anything
that refers to coded Roman Catholic
beliefs .
''In fact , I never came across anything that could make any sense out
of it."
At the Episcopal-run University
of the South (Sewanee), the school
of theology's librarian , Jim Dunkly.
says the lore IS nothing more than
wishful thinking .
"The tune is probably French,"
Dunkly says. " but the song was
undoubtedly sung in England with
the game, which may have been
played centuries before we got to the
song we've got today."

songs based on the 12 days between

"Certainly music served that func tiOn during the years of religious

ca·shmere lovers: beware of imitations
By ANN JOHNSTON HAAS
The Cincinnati Enquirer
Shopping for a cashmere sweater is a hands-on job. The garment has to
have cashmere 's special so ftness or you need to keep on looking.
You ' ll know when you find a sweater made of good-qual1t y cashmere .
You won 't want to stop touching it. It' II keep drawin g your hand to its soft ness - like to a bahy 's face or a kitten's fur.
" Cashmere has that special hand (feel). " Karl Spilhaus. president of the
Cashmere and Camel Hair Manufacturers Institute in Bosto n. says.
If a sweater's label say s it 's 100 percent cashmere but it feels rough, it
cou ld be a rip-off. Almost 30 percent of the cashmere sold in Lhc United
States is mislabeled, Spilhaus says. Counterfeiters try to duplicate cashmere's
feel by adding recy cled rags, human ,half, asbestos, rabbit fur, newspapers
and acrylic to the real thing.
Some other tips for evalu ating the quality of a cashmere sweater:
• If a sweater seems to be shedding. it 's a red nag . says Mary Hotko.
who raiSes cashmere goats on a farm ncar Aurora. Ind. Shake the sweater
to see if it loses short fibers, which arc of lesser quality and bring lower
prices on the market.
Better sweaters arc,made from cashmere fibers at least I to I and onequarter inches long .
"If you can, pull out a fiber or two and sec how long they arc," Hotko
suggests,-. " Of course. if the fibers come out easily, it's a poorer (grade)

• Look for the normal si gns of quality garment construction : good fi t.
even s![tching and properly fin ished button holes . neckline and culls.
It is not true, regard less of reports in Vogue and other fashion 111agazinc,,
that different parts of a goat produce different-quality cashmere.
"Cashmere libers arc combed out of the ncccc," Spilhaus says. "The
fibers are then separated and graded by finene ss and lengt h. Wh ere on the
goat the fibers originate IS not a factor in grading ."
_ .
Cashmere. the goat 's undergrowth , IS all over the an imal s hody. Hotko
says. " If there IS a dilfcrcnce (in finene ss ). it 's a mtcron at most. ..
A good-4ua lity cashmere sweater will cost about $ 150: an acc cptahlc
grade about $100, Splihaus says. (Acceptable-quality cashmere overcoat s
start about $500. he adds).
AI Saks Fifth Avenue, cashmere sweaters start about $140, N:mcy Brinker.
the Cincinnati store's puhli c re lat ions director, says . They arc a minimum
of two-pl y cashm ere in smooth , nbbcd and cable-kn it des igns.
" Ply isn't the number of yarn s knitted : it's the weight of the cashme re
yarn, " Shei la Kamensky. fash ion director and a vice pres ident of the Ln:~ru s
stores, says. " One ply is too light . and over two ply is quite heavy and Cl"tprohibitive."
" You can practicall y sec through " li ghter grades of cashmere. Spi lha.us
says.
Winter is the time to purchase cashmere sweaters; they won't he t'arri ~d
too long after the holidays. Cashmere definitely is a gift item. retailers say.

Hope the season
shapes up just
the way you want!

States scramble to pay for schools
By CARL WEISER
Gannett News Service
WASHINGTON - Property taxes too htgh0 Loc al schools too
expensive?
Join the club.
Across the country, property owners are rebelling again st hi gh property taxes and the school systems
that levy th ose taxes.
"The system is nawed," SaJd Terry G. Anderson, president of the Idaho Parent Teacher Associati on.
Though the two hi gh schools in her
hometown of Pocatello are "bursttng, .. voters last May turned down a
tax tncrease that would have pain for
Jwo new high sc hools. Anderson
was n't surprised.
,.
" It 's not that they didn 't wan t to
support 1he srhools. They simply
wu ldn 't afford it ," she said. " They
we re maxed out on lhCir pro pen y
taxes.··
The probl em is expected to get

worse i'r nothing is done: Public
sc hool enrollment is expected to
grow . At the same time, Washington
and many state capitols will be tryin g to cut spending. Parents, taxpayers and politicians will somehow
have to balance the clamor for outstanding schools with the complaints
about high taxes.
"Thi s is bi g bustness, funding
schools." sa id Mary Fulton, a poli cy analyst wtth the Education Commission of the States in Denver,
Colo. "You have to tap into large
revenue sources .
A look at other states. national
statistics. and interviews with experts
shows:
- States vary wildl y in how they
pay for sc hools. New Hampshi re. for
example, fund s schools al most
entirely with local property taxes. In
Hawaii . the schools are funded wi thout a penn y of property taxes; the
one statewide school district is fund-

ed by income taxes and sales taxes .
Nevada taxes casinos. Alaska taxes oiI companies. Many states, like
New York , are eyeing lottery proceeds.
Poor states rely more on the federal government; Mi ssissippi can
depe nd on the government to pay 17
percent of its education costs: New
York can count on onl y 5.6 perce nt .
- From th~ 1920s to the 1980s,
the federal and state governments
picked up more and more school
costs.
That changed when Ronald Rea·
gan became presi dent: the government began pi c k~n g up le ss of the
lab. That tnckled dow n to the states,
and by the late 1980s. state govern·
ment s began cuttin g the ir share of

Most historians believe Butch
and Sundance died in a shoolout in
Sa n Vincente, a !Own in Bolivia.
across Argentina's northern border,
where a patrol discovered them
holed 'up in a rented hut.
A gunfighl ensued, ending when
darkness fell . Later that ni ght townspeople reported hearing s~reams and
two shots. In the morning they found
both outl aw s dead. both shot in the
head .
The writers Buck and Meadows
believe that rather than be captured

Since 1985 they had chased a
rumor that pol ice files would nail

A leiter and three notes in the
package of rn atcri £.11 were in CasSJd y\ handwriting . They also found
a Spanish tra nslat ion of a letler from
Sundan ce . and two ot her !CIIcrs
referring to the outlaws.

Cassidy, under his alias of .. J.P.

Dan Gibbon, a Wel sh immigrant

of Chubut :
" I have been lard up wuh a bad
case of the Town Disease and I don't

but as soon as I am able I wi ll be

The leiter was posted m Cholil a.
(And Cassidy lik ely had gonorrhea.)
The papers rn cluded a rece ipt for

Man keeps heritage alive by manufacturing birch canoes
EDITOR'S NOTE- For centuries American ImJians fashioned
the bark of white birch trees into
canoes, a necessary .means of
transportation. Now here's a 1990s
man who follows in their footsteps
and sells the canoes for $400 a root
He feels he was born to do it.
By DAVID MOORE
Associated Press Writer
GREENVILLE, N.H. (AP)
Henry Vallencoun remembers that at
age 5 he sat behind the fami ly home
trying 10 sew two pieces of bark
toge ther.
He still can point oul the towering pine trees where he peeled the
bark.
.. It wasn't the right kind of bark
and il didn't amount to much, but I
specifically remember !hat act. it 's
imprinlcd on my memory ... says Vallencourt, a hint of his French-Ca nadian ancestry in his voice.
.. 1 think that you're meant to do
certain things wilh your life, and I
was mean! to bui ld canoes."
For centuries. birch-bark canoes
were the premier mode of travel
through the dense ly wooded Northcas!. American Indians could travel
from Maine 10 Mich1 gan with short
portages from stream to river 10 lake.
But the skills honed by anonymous hand s over hundreds of years
arc nearl y los!. About a half-dozen

How landscaping can help you save on energy bills year after year

Vallencoun makes birch-bark
canoes wilh the same tools and in the
same manner as the Indrans. He
makes long trips into the woods of
New Hampshire, Maine and Canada
to se lect cedar for !he nbs, hardwood
for the thwarts and birch bark for the
coverin g. He sews and lashes them
wilh the split roo ts of black spruce.
.. It 's an incredibly compl ex art
that' s accomplished with ihe mosl
basic of tool s and materials, " he
say s.
Vallcncourt lives in a house he
built behind the family home where
he grew up. Except for a very short
time working in a local plastics mill
as a teen -ager, Vallencourt, 45 , has
built ca noes.
" I can'! see myself having gone
in 'another direc tion with my life," he
says . .. I could sec early on that I wasn't cut out lor the routine of a 9-to5 job ··
He docs most of the canoe building on a raked bed of loam under a
wooden lean-lo anac hcd to the side
of his mother's house, and all the
work is done in !he long strip of yard
bord ered on one end by a state road
and the oth~r by the road into

like precision cabinetwork .
.. Even from the start . I regarded
them more as a work of art than a
functional piece," he says. "The
grace of line, that's what appealed to
me from the beginn ing." ,
On !he porch of !he Swiss-s1yle
chal et he built from plans he stud ied
in a book, Vallencourt marks halfinch-wide slrips of cedar split out of
four-foot logs to use for canoe ribs .
He begins to shape them wit h a
crooked knife. one of four hand-tools
he uses to build the canoes.
The crooked knife, almost
unknown elsewhere, was a lool we llknown to Indian craftsmen in North
America. It is made from an old llqt
fi le or other piece of scrap metal that
is fil ed to a knife edge and set in a
hardwood or bone handle. The end JS
heated and curved to allow the blade
to be drawn at 'an angle across

NEW YORK (AP) - Scientists
have found the fossil remains of a
dinosaur sitting on a nest of eggs like
a mother hen, a spectacular discovery that suggest birds inherited this
behavior from din osaurs.
The nine-foot-long creature .
which resembled a wingless ost ri ch
with a long tai l and arms, died in
Mo ngolia's Gobi Desen some 70
million to 80 milli on years ago. It
may have been engul fed in a giant
sandstorm .
The discovery is astonishing, said
dinosaur expert David Weishampcl
of the Johns Hopkin s University
School of Med icine.
Sc ient ists didn't know that
dinosaurs hroodcd their nests, he
said. And the fossir is "amaz ingly
beautiful ," he sa id .
" It 's just tflcrc . Without any
imagination at all you can imagine
thi s critter sitting on a nes t. "
Jack Horner. curator of paleontology at the Muse um of the Rockies in Bozeman. Mont., said he conSidered it "one of the two best specimen s of din osa ur fossi ls ever

found" because it reveals behavior.
"We've had nes ts and babies and
all sorts of things, but we had never
had the direct evidence of the parent
with the eggs," Horner said. "By far
this is the strongest evidence of some
kind of parental attention ."
The find is reponed in today's
issue of the JOurn al Nature by
researchers at the America n Museum
of Natural History in New Yo rk.
George Washington Un iversity in
Washington, D.C .. and the Mongolian Academy of Sciences in Ulaan
Baatar. Mongoli a.
The dinosaur IS called an oviraptor. Mark Norell of the mu seum , lead
author on the paper, said it's no surprise to him th at ov ira pt ors brooded
because they were so closely related
to birds.
Paul Sereno, an associate professor of paleontology at the Universi ty of Chicago, said that before the
fossil was found scienti sts could only
guess that oviraptor brooded.
" Here we have a smoking gun ,"
Sereno said.
Although birds had appeared by

the time the oviraptor died, the finding provides the strongest evidence
yet . that birds inherited brooding
from dinosaurs, Norell said.
That's because birds and oviraptors evo lved from a common
dinosaur ancestor. Norell said. And
since the brooding behavior is found
in oviraptors and the birds, it was
probably present in that common
ancestor, he said.
Just when that ancestor lived is
not known, but it came before the
first known bird, Archaeopteryx,
which lived some 140 milli on years
ago. Norell said .
The sc ientists found the oviraptor
fossil in 1993 and reali zed immediately that it was imponant, Norell
said. The dinosaur and the nest were

News Serv 1ce Reporter John Ketzenbergcr asked one fro m eac h during a rcce'nt intervi ew.
- From Luke Barbara, sixth
grade, St. Boni face Elemen tary
School : "Concerning the current
state of social affai rs and politics,
would yo u encourage your sons to
enter politics''"
- Gov. Bayh 's reply: " I want my
children to be happy. And part of
hcing happy is making a contn bution
to one 's community. There arc many,
many ways to do that. Through charitable organ iza tions, ch urches or
synagogues, a variety of ways.
- "I n my family, for both my
father and my self. politics has been
the way we've tried to make a contributiOn . I think trying to help your
fellow citizens is an important part
of hcing happy and being fu lfilled in
life . Politi cs is one way to do that.
It 's not the onl y way, but one of the
great parts of my job is I go home
every day and try to thin k of at least
one person I've been able to help .
Eve n if I've had a lot of other frustrali ons, if I've been able to help
somebody or a family with a problem lhcy've had , that makes me hap py.
- " 1 will encourage my children
to make a contribution to their community. but polit1cs is only one way
to do that. It 's an honorable and
noble ·calling. To the ex ten t that we
have larger challenges facing our
country today. I think that makes it
even more important for good people to go into government. Because
if good people don ' tthen the country will never be able to fulfill its
potential .
-" It 's only natural that our children will be exposed to a little public life in our famil y, butt want them
to make their own decisions. But I do
think its important to focus on helping yo ur lcllow man and not just
only on your own self interest. "
- From Lisa Howell, seventh
grade al Tecumseh Middle School:
"How would you compare the
excitement of bei ng governor to the
exci tement of being a fathcr'1"
- Bayh: "There's no compari- •1 . They're both very exciting.
oi ng a father is a more personal and
~rofound experience . I would say
that being a fat her has g1ven new
depth and meaning to my JOb as
being governor. It 's given renewed
meaning to try hclpmg children and
famil·les create opportun ities for all
of our citizens to help themselves.
-"They' re both thrilling, but if
I had to summari ze, I'd say I've been
given the honor of being the gove rnor of our state for eight years and
that's an important responsibility to
carry. But! will hopefully be father
the rest of my li fe and that 's an even
more imponant responsibilily. I hope
I've been able to do both well. but
time will tell with parenting ."

wouldn't believe us," Norell said.
The oviraptor is "in the exact
same position as if you looked at a
chicken sitting on a nest," Norell

He and colleagues uncovered 15
oviraptor eggs in the nest and concluded that it probably contains
about 22, a typical number. The eggs
are neatly laid out in a circle, With
the thinner ends pointing to the outside.

"Since you are a father. would you
want your kids to go to year-round
school'l "
- Bayh: "Since I'm no longer in
school it 's an easy question to say
yes to.
-" But all joking aside, I think
the most important thin g we can do
for Cara and her classmates or for
my children is to make sure that they
get a good education. That more than
anything is goin g to determine
whether they're going to have a good
standard of living and be able to provide for their own kid s one day.
- " It's a very competitive wo rld
these days. Many children in other
countncs, who will be competing
with Cara and her classmates for
jobs and opportunities, go to school
much longer than we do. All else
being equal, if you study more and
you' re in sc hool more you' ll learn

more.

- " 1 think in the long run we
probably will go toward more sc hool
and perhaps to year-round school.
We' O need to do that evenlmilly to
make sure that Cara and all of our
children have the kind of e'onomic
opportunity that we'd like to sec
them have."

- From Amanda Shively, SIXth
grade at Tipp Elementary School: "If
you were not into government, what
would you bei ng doin g''"
- Bayh: "That's a good question.
I' ve alway s had a real interest in
business and economics. Helping to
create JObs for people is something
I'd get a great dea l of pleasure out of
doing. But I've always also enJoyed
young people and I think leaching
would be very rewarding. So it's

there is it's better to be the client

- From Melanie Strickland,
eighth grade at Klond ike Middle
School : "Since !hi s is the last time
you can run for governor. what do
you plan to do'&gt;"
- Bayh: ''My wife Susan keeps
asking me that question and I think
I probably ought to tell her f1rst. But
before I can do that I need to make
up n'\y own mind .
-" The answer ri ght now is I
don't know. I have one more session
of the Leg islature stil l to go and I
want that to be a productive one fo r
our state. So I've really put oil the

I want to do until after that sesswn
of the Legislature.
~" Being governor IS a very
time-consuming joh and I want to be
the best governor that I can be and

parent and to spend time with my
children and to provide for them .
Susan and I' vc talked a little abou t
it and she says. ·Look, I just want
you to do whatever will make you
happy and fulfilled.' So I'm fonu nate to have a wonderful, su pporting

BAT:JN ROUGE - The clhi cs
hoard on Wednesday ruled that a
Vivian alderman's contract for
towing service with the town of
Vivian was prohibited by the Ethics
code.
Alderman at Large Sam Curry
told the Times Wednesday that he
asked Vivian mayor Ricky McMillan to request an opinion from the
Ethics board about the propriety of
the contracts.
McMillan was arrested last week
on charges of public contract fraud
ste mming fr&lt;lm a legislati ve audit
first asked for by Curry.
But Curry said he and the mayor
are fri ends and the request lor an
opinion from the ethics board
was in no way related to Curry's
request for an audit.
"E veryone seems to be saying
now that I asked lor the audit myself.
That's not true. All five council
members askeq for ~~at audit ,-;-- I
JUSt wrote the fetter, he sa1d. Me
and the mayor don't have any problems."
Curry, owner of Sam Curry's
Paint and Body Shop and Wrecker
Service, owns one of only two
wrecker services in the town. The
other is owned by his brother.
Curry has been doing some towing .service for the town without
charge, which is allowed under the
ethics code, but said it is becommg

' 'I'm not goi ng to leave anyone in
a bind," Curry said . "B ut I can't keep
doing thi s, something has to he
done ."
But the closest wrecker service
outside of Vivian is about 25 miles
away Curry said.
. .
Rep. Roy Hopkins, D-01I City,
said he knows the problems smaller
town s have with the ethics code.
" It is a tremendous problem out
in these sma ll towns," Hopkins
said."Often , the onl y people you can
lind that want to serve arc busin essman.
There is an excepti on in the law
for towns with a population of less
than 1,500, said' Gray
Sexton, an attorney for the Ethics
Commission. Vivian's population is
more than 4,000.
Hopkins said a few &lt;,&gt;f the rural
Legislators tried to have the exception raised to a 5.000 populatiOn, but
they were unsuccessful.

sauerkraut and sausage - one of the

Then you pull a couple of pans

Thus, you probably won't want to
use turkey sausage for a New Year 's

What time is midnight Mass 0 The
answer is hot as easy as you think for
Catholics this Christmas.
"It's not such a silly question anymore. " said the Rev. Thomas
Kessler. editor of the Catholic Times
newspaper in Columbus . Ohio. " It
used to be a joke when people
would ask. "
While midnight Mass still packs

most Catholic churches, an aging
population, overworked pnests and
a busy weekend arc forcing many
churches to skip the Christmas Eve
ceremony this year. Some bemoan
the loss of traditi on. Others prefer
early bedtime.
"It's a matter of convenience."
said the Rev. James Ruef of Holy
Name Catholic Church near Ohio
State Universiry in Co lumbu s.
Parishioners voted this summer lO

forgo midnight Mass. Instead there
will be a I 0 p.m. vigil service.
"The students have gone home,
and we have a lot of elderly people
who don't want to be out late. We
won 't do midnight Mass just for the
sake of doing it."
Catholic churches are not
required to have midnight Masses,
and the trend away from them began
about I 0 years ago. said the Rev.
Michae l Curtin, director of the

......--...--Holiday display

Catholic Information Center in
Washington, D.C.
It is more of an issue this year as
Christmas Eve falls on Sunday,
Kessler said. Add a vigil Mass to the
regular Sunday services and Christmas morning Masses, and il lakes a
toll on a priest and' a parish.
But tradition still has its hold.
"Big deal . If we can't do this once a
year it's too bad," said the Rev. Frederick Heuser, of St. James the Apos-

lenrucky favors choral conjuring. "My frrends just make up a
song, "Please snow, please snow," or
somethrng like that. II usually
works," says 13-ycar-old Nora Sloan
from Louisville.
Kids can influence the weather
just as much as Arctic fronts, admits
Doug Hill, mercorologrsl with TV
station WUSA in Washington , D.C.

" I think wishes, hopes and
prayers work just as well to predict
snow as computer models," he says.
In Vienna, Va., 8-year-oldAngela
Glynn is slicking with the inside-out

sleepwear on Tuesday night, and

Chinese child's first Christmas in New York
By BRENDA LING
Valley News Dispatch
In 1970, at age three . I celcbrat. ed my first Christmas.
The first Christmas gift I ever
held in my hands was a doll another little girl had thrown out.
My father found the doll in a trash
bin on the way home from the Chinese restaurant where he worked as
a waiter.
There were more exciting and
beautiful Christmas gifts as I grew
up- brightly colored sweaters , perfume, more dolls.
But I never forgot th at first doll.
Especially whenever Christmas rolls
around each year and people make
themselves crazy trying to find "perfeel" gifts for family and friends.
They agonize about how much
money they spend. but whar is often

lost on them is how difficult Chrislmastime can be for those who do not
have a lot of money.
During the Chrrstrnas of 1970, my
father, a proud man, felt lernblc
about the inability to buy presents for
hi s three daughters.
My mother recalls filling the
bathtub with hoi water and submerging the doll before sc rubbing il
clean .
I remember waiting for the doll to
dry so I could play with it.
Our home was a tenement apanment on Essex Street in New York
City 's Lower East Side. Always a
haven for Immigrants, such as the
Italians and the Irish in decades past,
those arriving in the neighborhood in
the 1970s were the Chinese.

My family arrived from Hong
Kong three monrhs before that

Christmas in Bethlehem
without occupation
By LEE MICHAEL KATZ
USA TODAY
BETHLEHEM. Occupied Terri tory - This year, Paradise Hotel
manager George Ahuaila had banners with Yasser Arafars picture and
the PLO nag put up next 10 multi colored Christmas lrghts.
Abualla admltledly is trying to
please the city 's new rulers.
''This is a new situation ," says
Abuaila. a Palestintan Christian .
Just after midnight Thursday,
Bethlehem, the citY of Jcsu, · brrth,
moves from Israel( hands to control
of the Palestinian Authority The
event marks the end of 2X years of
custodianship by l"ael. which won
the area from Jordan in a 1967 war.
In a curious scene, Arafat, a
Muslim . will lead lhe public pari of
Bethlehem's Chri stmas Eve cclcbralion.
In the town where lhe Brblc says
Joseph and Mary had their baby
Jesus, the midni ght Mass at Bethlehem 's Church of the Nativity may be
viewed by as many as 500 million
people around the world.
Bur this year the broadcast feed
wi II be provided not by Israeli TV
bul by the Palestinian Broadcast
Authority. Because thi s year, Christmas for Paleslinian Christians arrives
without lsme li occupation.
"It will be Christmas and we will
be free from occupation." says Beth-

-

lehem Mayor Elias Freij . "The people arc happier. There will be no
occupying forces."
Whallhe change means for visiting Christian pilgrims is less clear.
Israel has constructed a bypass
road around the area. The hulk of
1ouns1s wrll sui! come from nergh horing Jerusalem . Access will still be
conlrollcd by Israeli soldiers.
Arafat 's Palesli nian Authority,
whose plainclothes police have ·
already been discreetly marking their
turf, is mum about security plans.

Christmas. My father had $50 in his
pocket, and thai he borrowed from a
friend .
As . soon as we found an apanment. my father went to work at the
Chinese restaurant so his family
could eat. and he could repay the
debt.

Where will you spend
Christmas this year?

Some of us live alone, while others have children or
grandchildren that are nearby. Some of us are
single, some are married, some are widowed and
some are divorced or separated. Many of us seek
out new friendships. Whether we are black, brown,
yellow, red or white, we all have traditions that
embrace Christmas. Celebrating the birth of
Jesus Christ is important to everyone.

Come and celebrate Christmas
with us this year at the

The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio has approved one-way, narrate extended area telephone servtce from the Pomeroy exchange of GTE
North Incorporated lo the Mason exchange of Bell Atlantic-West Virginia.
The Public Service Commission of West Virginia has already approved
. a similar arrangement that would allow Mason residents 10 call Pomeroy
exchange customers at no cost.
This case, as originally filed on Nov. 12, 1992, requested extended area
service from the Pomeroy to Mason exchange and to the New Haven
exchange of Citizens Telecommunications of West Virginia. The Pomeroy
exchange includes areas surrounding Pomeroy. Middlepon and Syracuse.
