"You have to come out and be aw;ue," forward Craig Smith said Sunday after scoring 14 points with 13 rebounds to lead BC to a 7051 victory over the NAJA Division II Bears. "You can' t think you can beat a team like Shawnee State on just tale'nt." Jared · Dudlev scored 18 with nine rebounds, and Sean Marshall had 16 and nine for BC (2-0). Terrence Davi son and Frank Hall each had I 0 points, and Davison and Justin Brinkman had seven rebounds apiece for Shawnee State (3-3). The game was scheduled as the first round of the Las Vegas Holiday Invitational but played before a sparse crowd on Boston College's Chestnut Hill campus. It was expected to be a walkover for BC. and that's how it turned out. But Shawnee State stayed close fur I 0 minutes enough to put a scare in the Eagles, who watched No. 4 Michigan State al)d No. I:l Stanford lose to unranked teams on Saturday. "We can't come out and play at their leveL Obviously, we kind of did that today," Smith said. "They were a little more aggressive.'' Shawnee State Jed 13-1 2 with I0: 12 to go in the first half before BC took the lead for good on Dudley's threepoint play. The Eagles scored 22 of the last 31 points in the half to make it 34-22 at the break. BC broke it open in the second. scoring 12 consecutive points to tum a 40-29 game into a blowout. · "They took us out of almost anything we wanted to do," Shal\'nee State coach Jeff Hamilton said. "We were excited to play at Boston College. That's a great opportunity.... It's fun for the kids - a great experience." Smith, BC's first preseason tirst-team All-America selection, was 6-for-9 from the tloor; overall, the Eagles shot 41 percent in the game. BC scored just 22 points off 24 Bears turnovers, 15 of the turnovers in the first half alone. The game was played with the NCAA's experimental rules that moved the 3-point line another foot back and widened the lane. "That jost gives Craig and Jared more room to work," BC coach AI Skinner said. BC was 0-for-11 from beyond the arc after making · 7-of-21 shots from 3-point range in Friday night's opening victory over Dmtmouth. Skinner complained th:•: ~he Eagles took too 111any u .•. ·.. dc shots in that one. a strmcgy that failed to take advantage 9f their inside prowess. But Skinner said he· didn't think the rules had less of an impact on his players' shot selection than hb postgame comments on Friday. "I would like to think 1 have a little impact on what they do,,' he said. Shawnee State was 3-for-9 from 3-point range.

The United Auto Workers called the plan "devastating" and warned it will make negotiations more difficult, but some Wall Street analysts said GM's actions may nm go far enough. To get production in line with demand. GM will cut 30,000 jobs. which represent 17 percent of GM's North Ameri'can houri y and salaried work force of 173,000, and will close nine assembly. stamping and powertrain plants and three parts fal:ilities. GM's U.S. market share fell to 26.2 percent in the first I0 mon.ths of this year compared with 33 percent ll decade ago, the result of increasing competition from Asian rivals. GM lost almost $4 billion in the first nine months of this year. "The decisions we are announcing 10day were very difficult ro reach because of their impact on our employees and the communities where we live and work," GM Chairman and Chief · • Executive Rick Wagoner said. "B ut these actions are necessary for GM to get its costs in line with our major global competitors." GM isn 't the only U.S. automaker cutting costs. Last week, Ford Motor Co. told employees it plans to elimi· nate about 4,000 white·•ollar jobs in North America early next year as part of a restructuring plan. GM said the plant closings are part of a plan to shave $7 billion off its $42 billion annual bill for operations by the end of next year. That includes a $3 billion cut in health care costs, $1.5 billion in manufacturing cuts and $ 1 billion in s~win g" on materi. ais. The company's shares fell 47 cents, or 2 percent, to close $23.58 in trading on the New York Stock Exchange. · They' have traded in a 52week range of $20.60 to $40.82. ·Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, which lowered GM 's debt to "junk" status earlier thi s year. sa id the company remains on credit watch. S&P said the staff cuts are substantial but may not be adequate . considering GM's problems. including a possible strike at Delphi Corp., its largest supplier; an ongoing federal investigation into accounting errors; and an uncertain outlook for its new lineup of full-size sport utility vehicles, which may fall victim to consumer concerns about gas prices. . Goldman · Sachs analyst · Robert Barry said those . headwinds could offset any gains from the cuts . "We are not confident the restructuring addresses the core issue that GM brings too much supply to the North American market," Barry said in a note to investors. GM has 77 faciliti es in North America, including 30 assembly plant s, 23 stamping plants and 24 engine and transmission plants, spokesman Stefan Weinmann said. Wagoner said th e job cuts will come primarily through attrition and early-retirement packages to mitigate the impact oi1 workers. GM has an annual attrition rate of about 7 percent, Wagoner said. The average hourly worker is around 49 vears old, he said. · Some workers who don't · choose to retire wu ld go into jobs banks, which pay laid: off workers their salary and benefits. Wagoner said details about layoffs and early-reti rem ent packages still need to be worked out with the UAW, the Canadian Auto Workers and other unions. Earlier this month. GM's U.S. homly workers agreed to pay more for their health care benefits, a concession UAW leaders said was necessary because gf GM's financial statu s. But the union responded angrily to GM's latest announcement, saying the company needs to design attractive and exciting vehicles instead of tryin g to shrink its way to prosperity. "Workers have no control over GM's capital irivestment, product development, design, marketing and advertising decisions. But, unfortun·ately, it is W()rkers, 'their families and our communities that are being forced to suffer because of the failures of others," UAW President Ron Getteltinger and Vice President Richard Shoemaker said in a joint statement. The plan will cut the number of vehicles GM is able to build in North America by about I million a year by the end of 2008. GM will be able to build about . 4.2 million vehicles a year in North Ame rica, down 30 percent from 2002. Wagoner said GM's plants are increasingly llexible and will be able to add capacity to meet market demands. The decrease could help Toyota Motor Corp. surpass GM in worldwide production, although it's unclear if that could happen, because GM is growing rapidly in Asia, said Greg Gardner of Harbour Co'nsulting, a rn.anufacturing consulting firm. Toyota expects to products 8.1 million vehicles this year, while GM expects to produce 9 million, he said. Wagoner .said the plan would get GM's North American plants running at I00 percent of their capacity rather than 85 percent, as they do now. In 2004. Toyota had the most productive . plants in North America, with six plant s that ran at 107 percent of their capacity, according to the Harbour Report, HEALTHBEAT: Riskier approaches urged as 'safe' Alzheimer's therapies disappoint t BY LAURAN NEERGAARD AP MEDICAl WRITER ' II I WASHINGTON - A fog is slowly creepi ng over Dr. William Deutsch's brain.

It's also ending production at the Lansing plant that produces the slow-selling Chevrolet SSR, a small pickup. Wagoner said GM has no plans to kill off any of its eight brands. He added that plants were chosen for closure based on overcapacity of their products in the market, the life span of vari'ous products and the slate of the facilities.

The level of venom infusing the Iraq debate, already toxtc, has escalated in the past few days as Bush defends himself against charges of lying and Democrats accuse hirfl of "smeanng" them and questionmg the1r patnotism. For example, Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass. , charged that Busb "dishonored America's veterans and those servmg today" by playing "attack politics" in a Veterans Day speech.

After years of high surpluses and generous repayments to employers. the state in sur, ance fund far injured workers is trying . to better balance income and expenses as it addresses issues raised by an investment scandaL The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation has set a goal of spending just less than $1 for every $1 it takes in from businesses in the form of premiums to proces s claim s by injured workers. That would be a marked change from its currem practice, whereby it spends $1.31 to process claims by injured workers for every $ 1 it receives from businesses. That lopsided income flow, combined with a relatively low surplus of $1.1 billion, is creating a bleak financial future for the agency unless changes are made, agency officials say. . The agency took a step toward a new fi-nancial approach last week by transferring almost all of its $15 . billion , portfolio to fixed income funds, or less risky funds such as those investing in bonds that pay a specific interest rate. While the agency's prior investment of more than $7 billion in equity funds produced higher returns, it also carried a greater risk.

Farm symphony to help push crop sales overseas BY JAMES HANNAH ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER A symphony featuring photos of life on the farm snapped by the farmers themselves will soon .be available to potential customers around the globe as a way to help push foreign sales of U.S. corn, soybeans and other crops. The U.S. Department of Agriculture plans to send DVDs of this weekend's concert in Springfield. Ohio, to all 80 of its overseas ·posts for use at trade shows and other events where American farm representatives rub elbows with foreign customers. 'They see it as a way of showing that American agriculture is about family farms," said USDA spokeswoman Sally Klusaritz. "It's trying to put a face on American agriculture." Klusaritz said foreign buyers sometimes perceive U.S. farming as a corporate operation with large factory farms run by computers. . · • She said officials hope the DVD documentary taken from the concert will humanize the image of American farming, showing foreign customers that crops are grown by people like them who care deeply about the product.

Richard·Moore, an expert on farming in Japan who wrote a book called Japanese Agriculture, said Japanese consumers have a tradition of having a real interest in the farmers they buy from and how the food is grown. "The farmers themselves will be asked to show up at the store and be near their produce," he said. "Sometimes, even on the labels they 'v.:ill have the name of the farmer and sometimes the telephone number." But he said Japan imports about 70 percent of the food it · consumes and that foreign products are purchased from trading companies. He said if American farmers could personalize themselves and their products -· by doing things such as the syrrphony project - their sales would likely increase. "It's a real opportunity to create face-to-face ties," he said.

"We haven't really tried anything like this ·before," said David Deitrick, executive director of the symphony. "Most people wouldn't see a natural relationship there, but it's a great way to highlight farms and the people who work on them and bring people into the symphony who might not otherwise attend."

DAYTON (AP) - The ·more contributions law fums gave to campaigns for Ohio attorney general candidates, the more state contracts they received, a newspaper reported.

The newspaper reported Sunday that: - The 49 fums that gave Attorney General Jim Petro's campaign more than $10,000 through their lawyers, spouses and political action committees were paid $71 million for state work in budget years 2003 through 2005. · - The 94 firn1s that gave between $1,000 and $10.000 received $37.6 million in fees for 2003-05. - The 212 fums that gave less than $1,000 received $20.1 million, or an average of $94,745. However, 168 .of the special counsel firms- 47 percentdid not contribute to Petro's campaign. and more than two dozen of them still got thousands of dollars in legal fees. Seven others contributed thousands but have received nothing in legal fees, the Daily News found, "I don't mind the notion of publicly financing campaigns.

Ohio attorney general CollEgE BaskEtball AP Top 25 sues seller of bogus Florida and Washington jump into Top 25 OSU-Michigan tickets · COLUMBUS (AP)- State investigators seized a computer and documents Monday from the home of a northwest Ohio man who customers' complained never sent the Ohio State-Michigan football tickets they ordered from him in an online auction. Attorney General Jim Petro also sued· Mark West, 53, of Fostoria, in Wood County Common Pleas Court, alleging several violations of the state consumer protection act and seeking a fine of $25,000 per Yiolation. So far 80 people who spent $60;000 on bogus iickets to lilst Saturday's game have come forward. "We're very actively pursuing the criminal side too," · Petro spokeswoman · . Kim Norris said. "We're looking for Mr. West to talk to him." West's wife reported him Litke from Page 81 margin, and enough versatility on defense to decide how they wanted to play. Instead of dropping seven, and sometimes even eight, defenders into pass coverage, the way teams tried to contain Peyton Manning in several low-scoring, early-season affairs, the Bengals cbose to load up in the box and take away Indianapolis' ground game. It. worked in one sense: running back Edgerrin James, who had five straight games of I00-plus rushing yards, tinished with 89. On the other hand, daring Manning to beat you is a gamble that no team save the Patriots has cashed in recently and this was no exception. Manning pulls the levers for what might be the most potent NFL offense in a while, but he is a throwback . quarterback with clearance to change any call at the line of scrimmage. All that last-second choreographing before the ball is snapped drives his own .guys to distraction, but they've learned to dance in his version of a ·high-speed ballet. . On this Sunday, he engineered five touchdowns on Indianapolis' first five possessions and linished with his most productive game of the season - 24-of-40 for 365 yards with three touchdowns and one interception, even better than the Monday night payback against New England, when Manning had plenty to prove. . After this win, just like the win agaiQst the Patriots, it fell to coach Tony Dungy to short-circuit the buzz about a perfect season and the Super Bowl title the Colts might already have claimed if not for the Patriots. He's now 4414 in 3 1/2 seasons in Indy, but with precious little to show for it. . "The thing l Iike about our team is we come to play missing last week and told. Fostoria police she last saw her husband last Tuesday. That would have been shortly after online auction site eBay Inc. suspended his account and notified law enforcement about the complaints from ticket buyers. Before disappearing, West told a Toledo television station that the tickets were already mailed, and those who didn't receive them would be reimbursed. There is no home listing for him in . Fostoria, a town about 35 miles south of Toledo. Some customers who used eBay's payment service that links to their bank accounts can get up to $1 ,000 reimbursed if they have buyer protection coverage, eBay spokesman Hani Durzy said. Others can pur~ue reimbursement from their credit card compames. every week, and we seem to adjust pretty well to what is put in front of us. Today had to be an offensive day," he said. " We won a couple games early in the year, I 0-3 and 13-6, so l think that's the si~n of a good team: You can Will whatever is presented to you." Five of the eight teams that reached double-digits wi.thout a loss since the NFL-AFL merger went on to win a Super Bowl, but Dungy is careful never to get ahead of himself. He learned that lesson after coming up short seveml times in Tampa Bay, and that was even before New England and coach Bill Belichick began their championship run at his expense. Besides, ·should Dung>' need reminding, team president Bill Polian is always close by. Polian was the architect of the Buffalo Bills teams that came home emptyhanded from four consecutive Super Bowls. And despite drafting shrewtlly and spending wisely to hang onto the NFL's best triple threat James, Manning and wide receiver Marvin Harrison, ' who have become the most prolific scoring quarterbackreceiver duo in league history - Polian knows how much luck is involved, how the window of opportunity can be slammed shut at just about any moment. The 1972 Dolphins refused to let that happen to them. They're often thought of as one-season wonders, but . the fact is they went . to three straight Super Bowls, won two of them, and might be remembered for their larger achievement if the· occasional toasts didn 't make them seem ·so churlish. So maybe it's not too late for those Dolphins to jump on these Colts' bandwagon. Seeing how hard it is to put to~ether a perfect season now m1ght remmd us that the guys who did it back then were capable of a lot more than rounding up a few champagne flute s . and toasting somebody else's bad luck. Florida is young and in the Top 25. The Gators, who lost three starters and 60 percent of their offense from last season, moved into The Associated Press' men's college basketball poll Monday. They had wins over ranked teams in the semifinals and championship game of the 2K Sports College Hoops Classic. The jump from unranked to 14th for the team that · starts four sophomores is the most ·impressive entrance since Georgia Tech moved in at No. 13 in the third poll of the regular season in 2003-04. The record for a jump-in is Kansas' move · from unranked to No.4 in the first regular-season poll of 198990. The Jayhawks beat No. I . UNLV, No. 2 LSU and No. 25 St. John's in winning the Preseason NIT that season. Washington , which won the BCA Classic on its home court, was the · other new comer this week, moving in at No. 25. Duke (3-0) held on to the No. I spot, . receiving 65 first-place votes and 1,7,93 points from the national media panel. Texas (2-0) held second with six No. I votes and I ,692 points. Connecticut ( 1-0) remained third, but then came the changes. Michigan State, which lost its opener at Hawaii 84-62, dropped from fourth to No. 12. Villanova, which had the only other first-place vote, Oklahoma, Louisville, Kentucky, Gonzaga, Arizona and Boston College all moved up one pi ace to round out the Top Ten. Memphis was No. II followed by Michigan State, West Virginia, Florida. Illinois, UCLA, Syracuse, Iowa, Alabama and Indiana. The last five ranked teams were George Washington, Nevada, Maryland·, Wake Forest and Washington. Stanford (0-1 ), which lost its season opener to CalIrvine 79-63, dropped out of the ranking s from No. 13. Iowa State (1-0), which beat Mountain State 101-82, fell out from 25th. "This game is fair, " Stanford coach Trent Johnson said Monday. "Regardless of what everybody says 'from a preseason standpoi'nt and the rankings and all that, if you show a lack of respect for competition and get caught up in what other people think about you as a basketball team or a basketball player, you're going to get beat."

The Huskies were ranked in every poll last season, including a season-best No. 8 in the fin.al balloting. Three tournaments will provide several matchups between Top 25 teams this · week.

The children hav.e been taught the fact s about Thanksgiving and can spout out · key terms such as "Mayflower," and "Squanto." However. · they have· gone beyond reciting th·e facts and have learned abom sharing a feast with friends by donating non-perishable food item s to the Meigs Cooperative Food Bank at the Mulberry Community Center. Yesterday after donating the food items, the children were dressed in either Native American or Pilgrim outfits as they sat down at their own Thanksgiving day table at their school. Another Thanksgiving tradition the preschoolers at New Horizons have an opinion on is how to cook the traditional turkey. According to New Horizon teachers Patty Taylor and Susan Eason, their students had some definite ideas on how the turkey makes it onto the dinner table. · Taylor and Eason complied some of these special recipes which .included the following quot~s: "Mom gets the turkey at the mall," or "Mom has to catch the turkey. She wears gloves while she catches it." The recipes also indudcd cooking time s such as "Mom bakes it on low for 16 minutes . She takes the turkey out of the oven and it is just how it's suppose to be. Mom puts the turkey on a tray.
