MIDDLEPORT-. About I 70
Meigs County teenage girls gathered
at the Middleport Family Life Center
Thursday to hear about productive and
destructive lifestyles and how they
affect their health and happiness.
The junior and senior girls from the
county's three high schools were
bused to the Life Center for the "outing on wellness", a celebration of
Women's Health Month sponsored by
the Meigs County Health Department.
The emphasis of the outing was on
enhancing personal wellness and selfesteem through improved decision
making and preventative health care.
The teenagers were given information to help them make decisions that
affect the quality of their lives, particularly as they relate to risk-taking in
their teenage years. ·

CCOLUMBUS (AP) Executions in Ohio should be
public from beginning to
end, including the insertion
of intravenous needles in
condemned inmates' arms,
the American Civil Liberties
Union said.
The ACLU's Ohio chapter
said it is suing in U.S. District
Court in Columbus to force
prison officials to let witnesses see the entire execution.
The court had not reported
receiving
the
group's
overnig ht package by the
close of business Thursday.
Previous court rulings in
Oregon and California have
prohibited prison officials
from limiting what witnesses
can see, said Raymond
Vasvari, the ACLU Ohio's
legal director.
Prison officials bring death
row offenders into the death
chamber at the Southern
Ohio Correctional Facility in
Lucasville with IV shunts
already in place in both arms.
Vasvari said the state is trying to .conceal the true' nature
of executions, adding that
inserting the needles cim be a

long, painful ~cess.
"What the 've done is
taken the proce of judicially takin~ a m n's life and
reduced It to a minor sur~ical
procedure,"' he said. ' The
state is trying to sanitize and
sugarcoat state-~pon sored
killing."
The group is suing on
behalf of convicted killer

Cleveland. Apanovitch, on
death row in Mansfield.

1984. She had hired him to
paint her house.
JoEJlen Culp, a spokeswoman for the Department
of
Rehabilitation
and
Correction. said the state
believes its process is legal.
Sharon Tewksbury, whose
husband was murdered in a
1983 Cincinnati robbery, said
the lawsuit would increase
the pain of surviving family
members who choose to witness an execution.
"They're obviously trying
to get people upset by executions," Tewksbury said
Thursday. " I wish they'd be

the Fox case.
In July 1999. the Oregon
Supreme Court declared slate
rules invalid that .prohibited
execution witnesses from seeing the insertion of needles.
In August 2002, the 9th
U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals in San Francisco
ruled the public has a First
Amendment right to view
executions from the beginning, including procedures
involved with putting an
inmate to death.
"The public and press historically have been allowed
to watch the condemned
inmate enter the execution
place, be attached to the execution device and then die,"
wrote Judge Raymond C.
Fisher.
"Accordingly, historical
tradition strongly supports
the
public's
First
Amendment right to view the
condemned as the guards
escort him into the chamber,
strap him to the gurney ·and
insert the intravenous lines."

Union rejects agreement on strike's eve
OXFORD
(AP)
Unionized

University went on strike at
· midnight Friday after rejecting
a tentative contract agreement.
"We are committed to getting a living wage," said
Randy Marcum, president of
the American Federation of
State, County and Municipal
Employees Local 209.
About 10 union members
planned to picket overnight outside the university service building, he said, but more were to
join the effort Friday morning.
About 55 percent of some
300 ballots cast ·tate Thursday
were for rejecting the contract
proposal, Marcum said.
The local represents about
860 hourly workers at the

state school about 30 miles
northwest of Cincinnati, but
only union members are eligible to vote.
Wages remained the main
issue for most workers,
Marcum said.
"They are paying us
peanuts, and a Jot of us are
having to go on welfare and
rely on food stamps," he said.
The tentative 3-year agreement before the union included the university's final offer
of a 4.25 percent pay
increase the first year and a 3
percent increase each of the
next two years, said university spokeswoman Holly
Wissing.
"We are extremely disappointed with the vote," she
said. "But we are ready for a
strike if necessary."

Medina County Common
Pleas Judge James Kimbler
granted class-action status to
a pair of lawsuits filed by
Akron lawyer A. Russell
Smith, who named Morris
brands Virginia Slims lights
and Marlboro Lights.
On Thursday,
Philip
Morris said it plans to ask
Kimbler to reverse his order.
"Regardless of what the
court tried to do, the simple
fact remains that every claim,
indeed, every smoker, is different," Philip Morris lawyer
William Ohlemeyer said in a
statement.
Ohlemeyer said the company believes the ruling was
unfair because Ohio law
requires each plaintiff to prove
that the person's decision to
smoke cigarettes was based on
public statements made by the
tobacco company.
Philip Morris lawyers had

urgedthejudgetothrowoutthe
lawsuits, which mirror those in
other states, including Oregon,
where the family of a 53-~ear­
old woman won a $150 mtllion
jury award last year.
In May, Philip Morris
asked the Illinois Supreme
Court to bypass a lower court
. and hear its appeal of a $10.1
billion verdict in a similar
class-action lawsuit, arguing
the suit never should have
been allowed to continue.
Philip Morris attorneys
also contend in that appeal
that the 1.1 million Illinois
smokers never should have
been lumped together in· the
class-action because studies
have shown smokers inhale
varying amounts of tar and
nicotine, and each smoker
spent different amounts of
money on cigarettes depending on individual habits.
The tobacco giant said
Thursday that there are simitar "lights" cases pending in
Florida arid Massachusetts.
Smith wanted the lawsuit to
include all smokers in Ohio,
but the judge's ruling restricts
it to smokers in Medina,
Ashland, Cuyahoga, Lorain,

receive hourly pay ranging
from $7.73 to $19.73, with
the bulk - . 517 employeesmaking $9 to $9.99 per hour.
Union officials said their
members rejected that offer
because Miami 's starting
wages are $1 to $3 lower than
those at other state-supported
universities and regional
municipalities in Ohio.
But the administration says
Miami "s salary schedule for
the union members is within
I percent of the average paid
by Oxford-area employers
and Ohio universities.
About 7,000 students live on
the school's main campus in
Oxford. Miami has about
20,000 students overall at the
main campus and satellite
in Hamilton,
campuses
Middletown and Luxembourg.

Miami hired at least I00
temporary employees who
started work on Monday at
$8.14 an hour on a week-toweek basis as replacements
for union regulars if they
walked out.
Miami's
maintenance,
grounds anp food-service
workers planned to walk off
their jobs at 12:0 I a.m. Friday.
Management and union representatives had reached the tentative agreement only hours
before the vote.
Union members rejected
the university's latest contract offer two weeks ago . It
had the same wage offers.
The university said it was
putting that wage increase
irtto effect despite the union's
rejection.

The tobacco industry ~en­
erally defines a light cigarette as one with less than 15
milligrams of tar, the carcinogen that delivers nicotine
to the smoker.
Low-tar cigarettes account
for the largest share of cigarette sales in the United States.

State fair director resigns after report
of accepting gifts from vendors
COLUMBUS (AP) - The
director of the Ohio State Fair
quit after denying allegations
that
he . inappropriately
accepted gifts.
Richard Frenette, manager
of the Ohio Expositions
Center since 1993. submitted
his resignation Thursday at a
regularl;Y scheduled Ohio
Exposi tton s
Commission
meeting . Two days earlier, a
report by the state watchdog
uncovered a "proliferation of
gift giving" from vendors
doing business with the fair.
Frenette said allegations in
Ohio Inspector General Tom
Charles' were unfounded . The
report criticized him and oiher
fair employees.
Commission Chairwoman
Dorothy Jones said the commission will do a nationwide
search for a.replacement. Until
one is found, Jones said the
Expo Center's No. 2 person,
Virgil Strickler, will take over.
Frenette said unsolicited
gifts from vendors were used

as door prizes at the annual
holiday employee recognition
dinner, and that previous assistant attorneys general had told
him the practice was permitted.
" I reali ze now from this
report that we followed bad
advice," Frenette said. "As general manager, I take full responsibility for this, but I want to
reiterate I did not personally
accept any of these gifts."
The report said Frenette
improperly accepted golf outings, meals and other gifts,
including $898 in sports tickets from Phil adelphia-based
ARAMARK Corp. , which
operates food services on the
fair grounds.
Frenette said the only ticket
he received was to a Pittsburgh
Pirates game in April 2002,
which he said was a business
trip. He said ARAMARK officials had invited him to Pirates
Stadium to witness changes
they had made there and were
considering maki ng at the
Expo Center, a 360-acre, 20

building complex.
··Although I saw part of the
game, I do not believe this
ticket should be considered a
gift," he said.
.
The inspector general' s
report also said that Frenette
failed to address "the proliferation of gift giving over a
period of years involving
Expo officials."
Frenette, 50, made about
$100,000 a year. He did not
return phone messages seeking further comment after the
meeting.
Gov. Bob Taft expects the
commission to implement and
enforce clear ethics guidelines
to prevent future problem s
with employees accepting
gifts, Holubec said.
"The governor believes that
the resignation was appropriate in view of the inspector
general's report," said Orest
Holubec, Taft 's spokesman.
The commission's Jones
saic! Frenette resigned to protect his family. "We hated to

lose him, but ·thi s is the way it
is. We accepted it and we will
niove forward from there,"
she said.
The inspector general's
report was the third in 13
months that included claims
of improper gift acceptance at
a state commission.
In Augu st 2002, Ohio
Turnpike
Commission
Executive Director Gino
Zomparelli resigned amid
allegations that he and
employees accepted meal s,
golf outings, professional
sports tickets and luxury seats
from contractors doing business with the commission.
In February, Randy Fischer,
former executive director of
the Ohio School Facilities
Commission, was chastised in
an inspector general's report
for inappropriately accepting
free rounds of golf from contractors working with the
commission.
He
also
resigned.

It was in the form of a male

stood beside a female complement, said Doug Perry. director of Canton Parks System.

Sanchez said.
Sanchez said the boy was
having a difficult time accepting hi s injury.

grow back,"' she said.
Perry said that no treasure is

Hillary~ test: Is she a Clinton who keeps pledges?

The Daily Sentinel

Sen . Hillary Rodham
Clinton, D-N .Y.. may face a
major character test - docs
she keep faith with her constituents in New York or ~o
for the presidency in 2004
Or, to put it tendentiously, is
she a "Rodham" - a straigl)tforward product of t!\e
Midwest - or a "Clinton."
someone with an expedient
interpretation of tidelity to
promises of all kinds.
Sen. Clinton has pledged
again and again and again to
New York state voters that she
will complete her first Senate
tenn, which ends in 2007. She
said at the New York State
Fair last month that she
"absolutely" will not run for
national office in 2004.
And yet. her hu sband
keeps dropping hints that she
might run - the latest being
that he was sure the voters of
New York would understand
if she changed her mind the
way Arkansas voters did
when he broke his pledge to
stay their governor to run for
president in 1992.
Sen. Clinton has to be sorely tempted to break her
promise, given the decline in
President Bush's poll ratings
and the attendant possibility
that one of the I0 Democrats
now runnin g for his JOb
might beat Bush.
This would probably block
Sen. Clinton 's shot at the
White House until 2012.
While Bush looked unbeatable, there was no reason why
she couldn't follow her origi·
nal game plan - become a
respected Senate heavyweight.

So, as the clock hits double
zero at the end of each quarter, I leave the sidelines and
quick-step it to the locker
room to make the calls.
Then, I hustle back so I do
not miss any action on the
field. To date, I have done
this during two home games.
However. I did not realize
anyone was noticing my little trips. According to my
wife, Terry, people began to
openly question where I was
going so often. Because it is
no big deal, I never even
thought to tell Terry what I
had been asked to do. So, she
could give no explanation.
All they knew was what they
saw. I was leaving the sidelines often, and it. appeared
as though I was in a considerable hurry.
But, apparently, that group
in the upper regions of the
home-side stands, where
only the stout-hearted sit,
came to a conclusion based
on their own perception "Pastor Ron must be running
to the bathroom!"
To be honest, it is somewhat embarrassing that the

munications for the United
Jewish Communities, which
sponsored the survey.
"We · re comfortable moving to all parts of the country.
It speaks well for being
Jewish in America."
Although Jews nave always
had a presence in North
Carolina. mostly as small-town
merchants and dime-store
owners, they are being replaced
in some places by Jewish professionals and retirees.
In
such
towns
as
Jacksonville. Lumberton and
Wil son, synagogues have
closed, as new ones have
gone up in Chapel Hill and
Cary - close to the Research
Triangle Park and the
region 's medical centers.
Retirees in sem·ch of warmer
weather are sprouting new
congregations in such places
as Pinehurst and Oriental.
And then there are those
who 'want to get away from
Northeastern cities for a quieter way of life.
Fed up with the sniper shootings in the Washington region,
Timna and Jamie Understein
and their three children settled .
three months ago in Southern
Village in Chapel Hill.

the holiest day of the Jewish
ye'ar. That means Vorhaus'
daughter, Sarah, 13, · can
observe the holiday without
missing school. The Bay
Area town they lived in held
classes on the holiday.
Understein, who has joined
the Chapel Hill Kehillah, said
she feels even more Jewish
here than she did living in
Bethesda, Md. She attributed
this to the intimacy and lack
of formality in the South.
Although tll.'re are oo solid figures for the nwnber of Jews in the
Triangle, Jewish federations estimate there are at lCliSl 13,00J in
I.Mham, Orange am Wake rnunties, and prolxlbly mere woo are not
affiliated with a Jewish syn;tgOgUC
or some other Jewish organization.
The three-county region has
all the major branches of
Jewish denominational life, a
couple of day schools, a theater troupe, a yearly film festival, several klezmer, or Jewish
folk music bands, and a new
research center for Jewish
studies at the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
In ways big and small,
Jewish life in the Triangle is
becoming easier. There are

perception has risen in the
'minds of some that I cannot
hold my water for more than
a quarter at a clip.
Nonetheless. this is suggestive of a salient spiritual
truth about which the church
community at large needs to
be ever aware. It is based on
the reality that people form
conclusions most often based
on what they see demonstrated before them.
The Bible tell s so me great
sto ri es about the prophet
Elijah, who was used mightily to. dispel some inaccurate
perceptions held by many
people concerning God.
Thus , God directed Elijah
to call the state-wide religiou s line of that day to
extend a challenge which
would determine the truth
about God.
Atop Mount Carmel, the
crowds gathered for the contest. El ijah first challenged
the false religionists to call
out for their god to provide
visible proof of existence.
When there was no vi sible
response. El ijah began to
paint a perception of hi s own
on the basis of what everyone was seeing at the
moment. Possibly, their god
was off somewhere talking. lvlason.)

concerning such activity, "he

But, then God provided
proof positive subsequent the
prayer of the prophet. Ftre
fell from Heave n and consumed the water-soaked altar

When the people saw t!lis

God was doing changed dramatically. In that decisive
moment , the people were
powerfully influenced to
believe in the dynamic reality of God on the basis of

Herein lies the challenge
before the church. If there is
ever go ing to be any spiritual
affects to countermand the
evils being manifested in
society. people must be able
to see God demonstrated
throu gh us . We must constantly demonstrate the benefits of living for God. How
we live must be Word-precise to the point that misperceptions do not develop. We
must practice pointedly what

effectively convince people

American Jews find the South welcoming

As American Jews file into

Over the past 30 years
there has been a dramatic

In 1970, only I0 percent of
American Jews lived in the

the American Jewish Year Book.
Today, 21 percent of
American Jews live in the

the number at 23 percent.
The

that the regional distribution of

gets the prize for the year's
snappiest book title: "God?"
As the subtitle explains.
this is "A Debate Between a
Christian and an Athei st"
about whether God exists.
·one of humanity's great questions . The book doesn't
assess any old deity but the
Bible's unique, all-loving and
all-powerful God.
This ancient question
became quite current with
two recent opinion pieces in
The New York Times.
In one, Tufts University's
Daniel Dennett caustically
championed those like himself who don't believe in
"ghosts or elves or the Easter
Bunny - or God." Dennen
said atheists are "the moral
backbone of the nation" and
(ignoring opinion polls) its
"silent majority." He called
atheists "brights," implr,ing
that believers are "dims ' or
"dumbs."
In the second piece, the
Times' own Nicholas Kristof
lamented a growing, "poisonous" divide between "inteland
religious
lectual
America." He blamed believers for clinging to tenets he
finds unreasonable. and
implied that they lack applied
brainpower.
However, there 's ample
intellect with William Lane
Craig of California's Talbot
School of Theolo§Y· God's
defender in "God?' In fact,
he presents the opposite
problem, employing new
twists taken from physics and
mathematics that will flummox ordinary readers.
Quick: What do you ~et
when you subtract infimty
from infinityry And do you
favor the Oscillating Universe.
Chaotic Inflationary Universe,
Vacuum Fluctuation Universe
or
Quantum
Gravity
Universe?
Cmig's equally able counterpart is Dartmouth College
atheist
Walter
SinnotArmstrong. (The book is
based on two face-to-face
debates they held.)
Alvin Plantinga of the
University of Notre Dame, an
estimable Protestant philosopher (who must have escaped
Kristof's notice) has proposed "two dozen or so"
ar~uments for God. But Craig
thmks just five make the
case, if taken cumulatively:
-One is the evidence for
supernatural miracles that
display God's power, using
as an example the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Not a
bad argument, but it's unlike-

COLD SPRING. Minn .
lAPl - When a semnd
shooting victim was found
near the weight room at
Rocori High School, emergency worker Tom Rollins
was the tirst to rush downstairs to give first aid.
There, he found his son
Aaron, mortally wounded.
The tragic encounter near
the bottom of the stairs was
yet another mournful note
for a community reeling
from shock at Wednesday's
shooting and the identity of
the suspect, a classmate of
the two victims.
Rollins was too distraught
to give medical assistance.
and someone else was sent to
help his 17 -year-old son,
who died at a hospital a short
time later. Seth Bartell, 14,
remained in critical condition early Friday.
Authorities had not yet
identified the suspect, but
students and the teacher who
apprehended him said he is
John Jason McLaughlin. 15,
the son of a Steams County
sheriff's deputy. McLaughlin
was

noon Friday to charge or
release him.
By late Thursday. authorities had searched the school
and McLaughlin' s home.

account of the attack. inves-

tigators Thursday said the
suspect pulled a .22-caliher
gun from a gym bag as he
walked out of a locker room,
then fired two shots. hitting
the victims.
Bartell got up the stairs. The
shooter followed und fired
again, said Tim O'Malley of
the Minnesota Bureau of
Criminal Apprehension.
At that point, Mark
Johnson, a 27 -year teacher
and coach. confronted the
teen. The student raised the
gun and Johnson raised his
right hand and shouted "No'"
The shooter emptied the bullets from his gun and dropped
it before Johnson grabbed the
weapon and hustled the boy to
the school office.
"Very quiet," Johnson said.
"Didn't say a word. As I
escorted him to the office.
didn't say one word. He came
with me very willingly."
0' Malley said it did not
appear the suspect was intent
on a Columbine-style massacre. II wasn't clear whether
the shooter knew the victims.
and authorities refused to
idel)tify a motive.
On Thur¥~ay, emotional
parents hugged each other as
they escorted their children
to a session at a nearby middle school in Cold Spring. a
town of about 3,000 people
60 miles northwest of the
Twin Cities.
Rollins' uncle, Russ Van

Beck. read a statement on
behalf of the family, thanking Iaw enforcement and
school officials for their
quick response.
" Aaron was a terri fie
young man with a positive
attitude and a great smile
which we will all miss." Van
Reck said. "We all know that
Aaron would expect us to
muke something positive
from this situation. We challenge everyone to help u ~
achieve thi s outcome."
Earlier Thursday. hundred~
of Rocori High School stu•
dents and their parents mei
with school oft1cials, coun•
selors and a Columbine sur:
vivor to talk about dealing
with the shootings.
Holly Pardue was a freshman at Columbine High
School in 1999 when two
teens shot and killed 12 students and a teacher. Though
Pardue was off-campus at the
time of that attack, she lived
through the aftennath and said
she felt compelled to come to
Cold Spring when she heard
about Wednesday's shootings .
"I wanted to see if there
was anything I could do,"
Pardue said.
School otl'icials said classes would resume at the high
school on Friday. The Rocori
district serves 2.673 students
from the central Minnesota
towns of Rockville, Cold
Spring and Richmond.

N.C. man executed for 1990 shooting; had

argued that brain damage made him do it
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) A man 'who offered a fellow
bar patron a ride, then shot
him and dumped his body in
a river in ; 990 was executed
early Friday by injection.
Joseph Earl Bates, 35, had
blamed the crime on brain
damage he suffered from a
car wreck three years earlier.
Bates was pronounced
dead at 2:14 a.m. at Central
Prison in Raleigh, said
Department of Correction
spokeswoman Pam Walker.
He had confessed to
killing Charles Edward
Jenkins ~fter agreeing to

give him a ride home from a
bar. Bates was convicted of
first-degree murder and kiqnapping in 1991 but his conviction and death sentence
were overtumed because he
didn't receive funds for a
mental health expert.
Bates was convicted and
resentenced to death for the
1990 slaying. though the
expert in his second trial in
1994 didn't know about his
brain injury.
His defense had appealed
to the U.S. Supreme Court
while Bates visited relatives
hours before the execution

was scheduled. They also
sought clemency from North
Carolina Gov. Mike Easley.
Both requests were denied
Thursday.
Carolina
The
North
Supreme Court also denied
an :~ppeal Wednesday.
Bates' fumily and friends
said he was coerced into the
killing by two other men,
one of whom received a suspended sentence for aiding
in the kidnapping.
Two other inmates have
been executed in North
Carolina in the past five weeks.

Couple sues over omission of words 'Thank
you, Jesus' from inscription in state park
SEATTLE (AP)- A couple who purchased an
inscribed brick for a state
park playground are suing
because the words "Thank
you Jesus" were not included as they had wished.
Residents had organized
an effort to build a playground this spring at Saint
Edward State Park, located
on the northeastern shore of
Lake Washington.
Money for the project was
raised in part by the sale of
inscribed bricks to be displayed there for $100. Dan
and Olga Buchanan ordered

one with the message:
"Thank you Jesus, Daria &amp;
Evan Buchanan."
But when they saw their
brick in the playground's
walkway, it read only.
"Daria &amp; Evan Buchanan."
On
Wednesday,
the
American Center for Law
and Justice filed a lawsuit in
U.S. District Court on behalf
of the Buchanans. ACLJ
lawyer Stuart J. Roth said
the omission violates his
clients' free-speech rights.

After big wins, where do top AillC teams go ftom here?
It's not easy beating three teams
from BCS conferences, and one
from the Mountain West, and crealing a national buzz that has people
from all over the country askmg
exactly, "what does MAC stand for
anyway." However, for the record
settin$ foursome of the MidAmencan Conference, the future
may be harder to predict than their
big day last week .
After everyone in the country has
taken notice of the programs at
Marshall, Miami of Ohio, Northern
Illinois and Toledo, the schools
have to ask themselves what they
can do with that kind of exposure
and recognition. After last weekend's · upsets of Kansas State,
Pittsburgh, Alabama and Colorado
State, all of these teams look like
quality bowl contenders that could
upset yet another BCS team, but
unfortunately there are only two
bowl games available to them as
members of the MAC.
'
This brings about two decisions
these schools must make in the near
future that may change their
schools athletic fortunes . The basic

question is. should they stay or
should they go. There is some evi dence that the four should continue
as they have been in developing the
MAC as a quality conference that is
overlooked by the BCS and the
other bowls with commitments to
other conferences. With the continued success of the top teams in the
MAC, it is reasonable thut a third or
fourth bowl could be added within
the next few years . After all , it's
only been seven years since the
MAC entered it's agreement with
the MotorCity Bowl, and only three
since securing a appearance with
the GMAC Bowl. However, college
football is an institution slow to

The other scenario would be for

Casey's homer lifts Reds over Cubs When Buckeyes

BY JoE KAY
Associated Press

CINCINNATI - The television screens were blank,
and the enormous CD player
jn Sammy Sosa's locker was
~ilent as the Chicago Cubs
packed for home .
They knew they'd let a big
one get away.
Sosa climbed the career
charts with two more homers,
but the Cubs let their onej;ame lead in the NL Central
slip away Thursday night as
the Cincinnati Reds rallied for
a 9-7 victory.
While the Cubs packed.
Houston finished off a 6-1
victory that pulled the Astros
into a first-place tie with three
games to go. Instead of the
Cubs heading home in control
of the division , it's back to a

games."
After two days of being
shut out and having their fans
drowned out by thousands of
Cubs supporters. the Reds put
a big kink in Chicago 's quest
for its first division title since
1989.
A left-for-dead offense
revived with a six-run rally in
the sixth, capped by Sean
Casey's two-run homer.
Outnumbered Reds fans could
stand up and be heard for the
first time all series.
"It's nice to hit a home run
in that kind of game," said
Casey, who hadn't homered
since Aug. 24. "It was a game
they needed. I knew the fans
were with us tonight when l
hit the home run and heard the
roar. I guess they wanted to
see some runs, and they only
had a three-day wait."
Sosa's two-run homer put
Chicago ahead 3-0 in the third
and moved him ahead of
Mickey Mantle into I Oth
place on the career list with

"That's what a pennant race
is all about," manager Dusty

The Cubs could take a little

dangerous hiner is back in

of Sosa's most disturbing seasons. He missed 17 games

Many of his best
moments have come at the

and then homered in his
return from the suspension on
June 18.
Notes: Baker changed his

in the last six games.

COLUMBUS- No. 4 Ohio State can thank Will Allen
for stretching the nation's longest winning streak to 18
games.
.
The last three Saturdays - and si!l times dunng the
streak· it was Allen who made the p1votal play 10 a narrow win by the Buckeyes.
,
· .
"If you want to call it my role, you can, the semor
safety said during preparations for Saturday's Btg Ten
opener against Northwestern. "I just go out there and do
my job, play hard, and when the play's there, I take
advantage of it. That's all you can do."
Allen's string of big plays is almost as long as the
streak.
·
.
Last year, with Allen seeing limited a~tion as a mckel
back and sub, he provided pivotal plays 111 thre~ VICt?n~s
as Ohio State collected its first national champ1onsh1p 10
34 years.
Allen intercepted Cincinnati's last-gasp pass into the
end zone to preserve a 23-19 win. In the annual
November showdown with rival Michigan, he picked off
a pass just inside the goal line on the final play as the
Buckeyes survived 14-9.
It was Allen who had the clean hit that sidelined Miami
star Willis McGahee with a knee injury in the Fiesta
Bowl, a game the Buckeyes went on to win 31-24 in double overtime.
This season, Allen has made a difference as the
Buckeyes have barely won games the last three weeks.
He went 100 yards with an interception for Ohio State's
only touchdown in a 16-13 win over 32-point underdog
San Diego State, then recovered a fumble that led to a
touchdown in a 44-38 triple-overtime victory over North
Carolina State.
On fourth and goal from just outside the I on the tina!
play of that game, Allen lowered his shoulder to stop the
Wolfpack' s T.A. McClendon inches shon of the goal line
to preserve the win.
In last week's 24-17 victory over Bowling Green, Allen
picked off Josh Harris' pass to thwart a last-minute drive.
"We know that Will is always going to make a b1g
play," linebacker AJ. Hawk said. "We don't want to wait
for him to make a big play - everyone else is trying to
do it also. But it's a good feeling knowing we have a
senior back there who's going to make a big play late in
the game."
After Allen's interception Saturday, he ran out the clock
and was mobbed by teammates.
"It's beginning to be second nature to have the ball in
my hands at the end of tlie game," he said later.
Others have noticed. ESPN analyst Mark May includes
Allen on his Heisman list.
Allen laughed and said he doesn't take any of it seriously.
"That's just amazing," he said, shaking his head.
Allen has spent three years with the Buckeyes biding
his time until he finally became a starter. The Dayton,
Ohio, native enjoys music and is teaching himself to play
the piano. He is a devoted Christian and his comments are
peppered with references to God and how blessed Allen
considers himself.
The Buckeyes have been fortunate to have Allen.
Ohio State's defense is permitting just 24 yards rushing
a game - less than a yard per attempt. Allen is third on
the Buckeyes in tackles. He also shares the team lead with
Hawk with two interceptions.
In the winning streak, Ohio State has won I0 games by
a touchdown or less . Allen would prefer that the
Buckeyes would put teams away so he wouldn't have to
make any more game-saving plays.
"We've just got to tighten up and finish the game off,"
he said.

Bruce rece1ved a two-year
contract and will have control
over all player personnel deci sions,
co-owner
Mark
Hamister said.
Ham ister said it was
Bruce's idea to boost the team
on the tield and in the cash
register by signi ng former
Buckeyes.
"W hat we said to him is . we

want Columbus to love the
team and we want to win our
unfair share of championships," Hami ster said. "His
first response was ·1 need to
be looking at Ohio State
IJniversity because they train
great football players.' So it
accomplishes both objectives."
Bruce said several former
Buckeyes already had contacted him about playing for
the Destroyers. but he
declined to provide names. He
S&lt;lid he couldn't return their
calls until he ofticially joined
the Destroyers.
''(' m go i.ng to call them
right away," said the 72-yearold Bruce. who's been out of
football since coachinl' the
lowu Barnstormers ot arenafootball2 in 2001. '' I hope
we can attract some of them.
That'll make liS winners."
Bruce also coached in the
AFL from 1993-95 with
Cleveland and St. Louis.

Arena, beginning in February.
Blue Jackets maj'ority
owner John McConnel and
James Renacci . a local businessman. bought shares of the
team from Hamister. who said
the three owners we re "el]Ual
partners."
McConnell could not be

reached for comment. A
spokesman said he was ill,
and he did not attend a news
conference
Thursday
announcing the team's move.
The Destroyers, a 1997
expansion team, finished 5-11
last season and failed to negotiale a lease to remain in
Buffalo 's HSBC Arena,
Hamister said .
The team saw season ticket
sales decline 79 percent from
more than 12.000 in the inaugural season, he said.
Hamister lost more than $5
million on the club over the
last two seasons, The Buffalo
News reported.
Hamister said he'd sought
an arrangement in which the
arena wou ld be responsible
for se llins tickets and sponsorships 111 exchange for a
larger share of revenues
should the team be profitable.
"We have a partnership
where the Blue Jackets and
the arena provide all the sales
and marketing for the entire
team," Hami ster said.
Hamister said the timing of
negotiations in Buffalo was
poor because the new owners
of the NHL's Sabres only
recently took over arena operations.

more than scoring," Kristine

midtield tonight, was a playmaker and a defensive presence. She is doing what she is
supposed to do and doing it
great."

In the opener with Sweden,
Hamm assisted on all three
goals, two off her corner kicks
that were headed home by

IN THE SPOTLIGHT

WINSTON CuP SERIES

Veteran driver
well-versed
on about every
issue in racing
By Monte Dutton
NASCAR This Week

t's been a quiet year for
Jeff Burton, whose 12th.
place finish in Sunday's MBNA
America 400 enabled him to main·
tain 13th.position in the Winston
Cup points standings.
The 36-year-old Burton,
who's won 17 races, hasn't
visited victory lane since
2001 at Phoenix International Raceway. He and younger
brother Ward have combined
for 22 victories, but neither
has won this season.
Jeff Burton talked about
the ethics of racing at
NASCAR's highest level and
the importance of having the
respect of other competitors.
"The thing that I think
everybody doesn't understand is
that not only are you under a microscope from the media to the gener·
al public; your peers are watching
you, too," Burton said. "Your peers
are paying attention to what you
say and what you do, and they
watch. You can't conduct yourself a
certain way without that under·
standing and without looking
around and saying, 'Why doesn't
anybody have respect for him?' Be·
cause they're watching you."
Burton noted it's difficult to
maintain friendships amid the at·
mosphere of stiff, week-to-week
competition.
"Competitors love to find some·
thing that they don't like about

(middle) or teammate Mark Martin (lower right).

you," Burton said. "They're looking
for it because they really don't
want to like you anyway. They'd
rather just race against you and not
have to deal with you. That's what
we do: We compete against each
other. They're looking for any flaw
anyway and they're looking to
make a case that says, 'He's a jerk,'
or 'He's a dirty driver,' or 'He's not
a good driver.' They're looking for
that and love to find a weakness
and try to expose that.
"You've got to be who you are.
Who you are is who you are and
when you start trying to change
who you are, I think that's a bad
thing. But there's nothing wrong
with trying to look at who you are

and trying to make improvements
and trying to learn from your mis·
takes and trying to take your next ·
step in being a man."
The sport is undergoing major
changes, with Brian France succeeding his father, William C.
France, as NASCAR's chairman and
CEO. Burton has always been a keen
observer of the NASCAR scene.
"There are times in every busi·
ness and every sport that you go
through changes, and you go
through transitions, and this is certainly one of those times," Burton
said. "The good thing is that people
seem to like it. Bill (France's) atti·
tude has kind of rubbed off on me.
I've quit complaining about things

that are driver-specific and team·
specific, and I'm much more concerned about what's the overall
good for the sport because that's
what makes our deal work.
"Bill has beaten that into my head,
and he's right. He's got the right atti·
tude and that's what has made this
sport work. I don't think the under·
standing and the commitment to
making this sport accessible and ex·
citing is ever going to change be·
cause that is bred into them - that is
beat into them - and if you don't
have that same philosophy, you won't
be part of NASCAR. As long as that
philosophy is alive and kicking, then
this sport is just fine."
