She thanked board members and contributors for t)Jeir support of th e can1paign. Oliver, who served for six years as amember of the fund's first board, recalled its early days, and the . first campaign, which had a goal of $6,000. "We've come a long way, from a $6,000 goal eight years ago, to a $25,000 goal this year, whi ch we easily met," Oliver said. "Of all of the organizations that I'm involved in, this organization is number one with me." "It has allowed us to bring Meigs County dollars which used to go out of the coun ty, baci> into Meigs County, where it can help those agencies which help Meigs County ·people, and it all ows donors to say where they want their charitabl e contributions to go," she added.

Some make · the commitment 'while alone with their thoughts, others at a church service when the invhation is extended to cbme forward and confess their belief in Christ. What are the changes that occur within the born-again Christian? Graham says he became aware of "new . appetites, new standards." Colson says, "There came to me a new serenity, a wonderful-new • assurance about life. I felt old fears , tensions and animosities draining away." Born-again Christians base their hope for salvation on their religious experience. But what happens to the two out of three CJtistians who haven't been born agaip? ' Most born-again Christians stop short. of saying that they are the only ones who will go to heaven. But they return tO' the dialogue between Jesus and Nicodemus in which Jesus tells the Je~sh ruler, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the, kingdom of God." Other Christians say baptism confers this new birth, pointing to another Bible verse that says, "He that believeth and is baptized , shall be saved." SPECIAL • .' ' 9Month I I I CD RATE I .'

Some make · the commitment 'while alone with their thoughts, others at a church service when the invhation is extended to cbme forward and confess their belief in Christ. What are the changes that occur within the born-again Christian? Graham says he became aware of "new . appetites, new standards." Colson says, "There came to me a new serenity, a wonderful-new • assurance about life. I felt old fears , tensions and animosities draining away." Born-again Christians base their hope for salvation on their religious experience. But what happens to the two out of three CJtistians who haven't been born agaip? ' Most born-again Christians stop short. of saying that they are the only ones who will go to heaven. But they return tO' the dialogue between Jesus and Nicodemus in which Jesus tells the Je~sh ruler, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the, kingdom of God." Other Christians say baptism confers this new birth, pointing to another Bible verse that says, "He that believeth and is baptized , shall be saved." SPECIAL • .' ' 9Month I I I CD RATE I .'

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention attributed the increase in part to a growing number of people 85 and older. People are living longer because of advances against such killers as heart disease, stroke and cancer. But older people run a higher risk of falls because they are generally more sedentary, have weaker muscles and poorer balance, and take more medication that can nuke them dizzy. · · More adults 65 and older die fiom fall-related injuries each year. than from any other kind of injury.

WASHINGTON (AP) -A study found that one in every 100 chicken carcasses gets past a federal inspector with fecal contamination or signs of disease on it, and federal officials say a new inspection program could reduce that rate. . "While our system is good, it's not perfect," said Thomas Billy, administrator of USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service. . Chicken carcasSes are subject .to additional cleansing after they pass the inspectors, so all fecal material sh(!uld be elimi,nated before the meat reaches consumers, industry officials say. The study, released Thur.;day, was conducted over the past year at 16 poultry plants that have agreed to take part in the new inspection .program. · , Under the existing system, federal inspecton sit at fixed points ,al~ng production lines and have about 2 seconds to check each carcass for defects and contamination as it passes by. Under the new system, that job is being left to company employees. Federal inspectors are being pulled off the production lines to do testing and oversight. Billy said that will allow inspector.; to focus on catching foodsafety problems, such as fecal contamination, rather than looking for defects or stray feathers that should be the packing plant's responsibility to find. lnspectu~s will he doing four times as much ~rilpling for fecal contamination as they do now, as well as testing for danger· . · ous microbes, he said. Some 306 of the 32,075 carcasses sampled in the study had fecal · contamination. Another 43, or 0.1 percent, had lesions and other signs of poultry diseases that are <dangerous to humans. Outlook improved for retirement programs ' WASHINGTON (AP) - Armed with news that the strong economy h35 improved the financial outlook for Social Security and Medicare, the Clinton administration is renewing pressure on Congress to create a new prescription drug benefit for the elderly this year. "It's an issue of a political will, not an issue of resources," said Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala. Congressional Republicans are including $40 billion for drug assistance for the elderly in ' their budget blueprint, put they and the administration are far from agreement on exactly how benefits should he designed and who should he eligible. And election~year "It's aft im•t of a politiad will, ftot aft usue of ruourct~.'' DoniiiiShMia HMith llld Hwnan Selvlcee - . r y grandstanding will make compromise difficult. Thanks to the strong economy, Medicare will have an additional eight years, until2023, before cash runs short to pay benefits to aging baby boomers.And Social Security will remain financially healthy an extra three years, until 2037, trustees of the programs said Thur.>day. On Capitol Hill, the good news prompted Republicans to renew attacks on Clinton's proposals to commit future income taX surpluses to bolster the nation's retirement pro- grams. "Instead of that failed approach, we should work on a real plan that saves Social Securi.ry and creates ·personal savings accounts for all Americans;• said House Ways and Means Committee Chairman BiD Archer, R-Texa!. This is the third consecutive year that both Social Security and Medicare have shown improvement in their long-range financial outlook. For Medicare, it was the best report catd in 25 years.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Ohio lawmakers asked the House on Thunday to authorize federal taxpayers to pay up to $16 million for the Underground Railroad museum propOsed for Cincinnati. " At a time when we are trying so hard to bring the nation's diverse cultures and races together, there is a need for institutions that can help to generate understanding, respect and reconciliation;• said Rep. Rob Portman, a Republican from Cincinnati. He was joined by Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones, a Democrat from Cleveland, and Sen. Mike DeWine, R-Ohio, in asking that the museum become an approved target for federal spending. Legislation authorizing a maximum spending allowance must be approved in otder for the museum to receive money in the normal appropriations process. . Backers estimate the museum· will cost $90 million, including · building, startup and exhibit costs; pri\>ate donations already have raised $36 million, Portman said. · Legislation pending in Congress would allow up to $16 million to be appropriated over four years to be used as matching funds, with S2 m federal money matching every $8 raised privately. Edwin J. Rigaud; president and chief executive officer of the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, said he is hopeful the federal funds can be secured. "It would represent a meaningful contribution fiom the federal government to this national effort;' he said. "Ohio had such a significant role in the underground railroad;' Rigaud said. "There were stiong, co\lrageous individuals, both black and white, who stood firm in their stance that slavery was unjust. They fought to overcome it (slavery), and th,ey were successful." . ' . .

"Unfortunately, Robert's been judged by his jump shot, and he's ju<\ged himself by his jump shot for all these years," Wake Forest coach Dave Odom said. "I think he's just now beginning to understand the value of having a total game." O'Kelley's shooting woes coincided with the team's midseason slump, during which it lost nine of 13 games and saw its postseason hopes fading. · Odom and ·his staff made ~orne lineup changes, including moving O'Kelley off the point and inserting Ervin Murray.

Neagle · joked with teammates in . the Cincinnati Reds bullpen after his latest · drubbing Thursday. He was upbeat when he recounted his final spring performance fbr reporters. There was nothing in his smile that hinted at what had just happened. Five innings. Four homers. Nine runs. "I was laughing with the guys in the bullpen," Neagle said, following an 11-~ loss to the Thronto Blue'Jays. ''I said, 'Is it bad to (eel- g9od if I give up nine ~uns in · five innings?"' · ~ ·. ' Not in an exhibition. B11t if Neagle Spring training corhes away from his next few starts with numbers like that, the Reds areri 't going to feel good at all. The Reds came to spring trainjng counting on a healthy Neagle to win IS to 20 games this season. He's been healthy and' gotten .hammered, giving up a teamleading 10 homer.;, 13 walks and 27 runs in 25 innings in spring training. That computes to a 9.72 earned run average. Neagle put a lot of emphasis on his final spring start, hoping to get beyond his concentration lapses and his problems throwihg out of the stretch. Instead, he fussed at the home plate umpire and finished with a three-homer inning. "Would I love to finish · stronger? Absolutely. Am I going not get any sleeR over this? Of course not," he said. "I'm healthy. I feel good about myself. I feel ready to go for my first start of the season." · Manager Jack McKeon hopes so, though his care in answering questions · about Neagle showed his concern. "How many runs did he give up? Nine. Let's face it, he didn't pitch very well," McKeon said. "For about three inn.ing; he had command of his stuff but agai.n, he was up in the strike zone.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention attributed the increase in part to a growing number of people 85 and older.

WASHINGTON (AP) -A study found that one in every 100 chicken carcasses gets past a federal inspector with fecal contamination or signs of disease on it, and federal officials say a new inspection program could reduce that rate. . "While our system is good, it's not perfect," said Thomas Billy, administrator of USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service. . Chicken carcasSes are subject .to additional cleansing after they pass the inspectors, so all fecal material sh(!uld be elimi,nated before the meat reaches consumers, industry officials say. The study, released Thur.;day, was conducted over the past year at 16 poultry plants that have agreed to take part in the new inspection .program. · , Under the existing system, federal inspecton sit at fixed points ,al~ng production lines and have about 2 seconds to check each carcass for defects and contamination as it passes by. Under the new system, that job is being left to company employees. Federal inspectors are being pulled off the production lines to do testing and oversight. Billy said that will allow inspector.; to focus on catching foodsafety problems, such as fecal contamination, rather than looking for defects or stray feathers that should be the packing plant's responsibility to find. lnspectu~s will he doing four times as much ~rilpling for fecal contamination as they do now, as well as testing for danger· . · ous microbes, he said. Some 306 of the 32,075 carcasses sampled in the study had fecal · contamination. Another 43, or 0.1 percent, had lesions and other signs of poultry diseases that are <dangerous to humans. Outlook improved for retirement programs ' WASHINGTON (AP) - Armed with news that the strong economy h35 improved the financial outlook for Social Security and Medicare, the Clinton administration is renewing pressure on Congress to create a new prescription drug benefit for the elderly this year. "It's an issue of a political will, not an issue of resources," said Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala. Congressional Republicans are including $40 billion for drug assistance for the elderly in ' their budget blueprint, put they and the administration are far from agreement on exactly how benefits should he designed and who should he eligible.

Thanks to the strong economy, Medicare will have an additional eight years, until2023, before cash runs short to pay benefits to aging baby boomers.And Social Security will remain financially healthy an extra three years, until 2037, trustees of the programs said Thur.>day. On Capitol Hill, the good news prompted Republicans to renew attacks on Clinton's proposals to commit future income taX surpluses to bolster the nation's retirement pro- grams. "Instead of that failed approach, we should work on a real plan that saves Social Securi.ry and creates ·personal savings accounts for all Americans;• said House Ways and Means Committee Chairman BiD Archer, R-Texa!. This is the third consecutive year that both Social Security and Medicare have shown improvement in their long-range financial outlook. For Medicare, it was the best report catd in 25 years.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Ohio lawmakers asked the House on Thunday to authorize federal taxpayers to pay up to $16 million for the Underground Railroad museum propOsed for Cincinnati. " At a time when we are trying so hard to bring the nation's diverse cultures and races together, there is a need for institutions that can help to generate understanding, respect and reconciliation;• said Rep. Rob Portman, a Republican from Cincinnati. He was joined by Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones, a Democrat from Cleveland, and Sen. Mike DeWine, R-Ohio, in asking that the museum become an approved target for federal spending. Legislation authorizing a maximum spending allowance must be approved in otder for the museum to receive money in the normal appropriations process. . Backers estimate the museum· will cost $90 million, including · building, startup and exhibit costs; pri\>ate donations already have raised $36 million, Portman said. · Legislation pending in Congress would allow up to $16 million to be appropriated over four years to be used as matching funds, with S2 m federal money matching every $8 raised privately. Edwin J. Rigaud; president and chief executive officer of the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, said he is hopeful the federal funds can be secured. "It would represent a meaningful contribution fiom the federal government to this national effort;' he said. "Ohio had such a significant role in the underground railroad;' Rigaud said.

However, in 1981 no bidding award was given, which I cannot understand because this effort from that year " col!ldn't lose." ·. Why is the deal so gQod? First, David Berkowitz (South) and Harold Lilie reached seven hearts with only a combined 27 high· card points (which il!cluded a wasted diamond queen).- Second, there are two points of interest in the play. How would you declare seven hearts after West leads either a trump (!£ the diamond , k.mg.? . ' . The one-club opening bid was artificial, showing at least 16 points. 1\vo nO-trump denied a top heart honor. Three spades, four diamonds and five clubs showed first- round controls (ace or void) in those suits. Five spades and six diamonds iridicated'secori"d-rouhd controls (king or singleton). Without a trump lead . declarer ruffs his three low diamonds in the dummy. scoring 13 tricks via two spades, six hearts , one dia· mond, one club and the three ruffs . I · However, West found the trump lead. Now Berkowitz had to establish a long club to com· pens111e for the one lost diamond ruff. After winning trick one in the dummy, declarer cashed the club ace, ruffed a club, took the diamond ace, ruffed a diamond, ruffed a club, ruffed a diamond, and ruffed a club. Berkowitz drew trumps, . crossed . to dummy's spade ace, and cash.e d the estab· Hshed club nine, discarding his last diamond. prove io make thinJ ~ better for you. ' 1 ~ Sariuday, April I, 2000.

However, in 1981 no bidding award was given, which I cannot understand because this effort from that year " col!ldn't lose." ·. Why is the deal so gQod? First, David Berkowitz (South) and Harold Lilie reached seven hearts with only a combined 27 high· card points (which il!cluded a wasted diamond queen).- Second, there are two points of interest in the play. How would you declare seven hearts after West leads either a trump (!£ the diamond , k.mg.? . ' . The one-club opening bid was artificial, showing at least 16 points. 1\vo nO-trump denied a top heart honor. Three spades, four diamonds and five clubs showed first- round controls (ace or void) in those suits. Five spades and six diamonds iridicated'secori"d-rouhd controls (king or singleton). Without a trump lead . declarer ruffs his three low diamonds in the dummy. scoring 13 tricks via two spades, six hearts , one dia· mond, one club and the three ruffs . I · However, West found the trump lead. Now Berkowitz had to establish a long club to com· pens111e for the one lost diamond ruff. After winning trick one in the dummy, declarer cashed the club ace, ruffed a club, took the diamond ace, ruffed a diamond, ruffed a club, ruffed a diamond, and ruffed a club. Berkowitz drew trumps, . crossed . to dummy's spade ace, and cash.e d the estab· Hshed club nine, discarding his last diamond. prove io make thinJ ~ better for you. ' 1 ~ Sariuday, April I, 2000.

Ohio • SPRING TRAINING • Blue·Jays pound Reds in spring finale DUNEDIN, Aorida (AP) -The Cincinnati Reds boiled over in their final Florida game. Gold Glove second baseman Pokey Reese angrily left the game after setting grazed by a pitch and Denny Neagle gave up four homers and lost his cool on the mound Thursday as the Toronto Blue Jays rolled to an 11-4 victory. Tony Batista hit two of the four homers off Neagle, who ended a ragged spring with his most frustrating inning. He twice yelled at home plate umpire Corey Erickson io the fifth, when he gave up three homers. Even Ken Griffey Jr. was edgy, going 0-for-3 and complaining as he walked away from a called third strike. Erickson eventually took off his mask and pointed at the dugout for quiet. No wonder manager Jack McKeon couldn't wait to get the exhibi- . ' tions over. "Let's get going. Let's get on with the show;• McKeon said. Toronto plays Los Angeles at SkyDome on Friday night, while the Reds have an exhibition Saturday in Chattanooga, Tenn., against Baltimore. The last game in Florida for both teams was quite a show in its own way. The Reds got a first-inning scare when Reese opened the game and got hit on the back of the left hand by a pitch from Frank Castillo. He wasn't seriously hurt, but he threw his batting helmet and a paper cup in the dugout before leaving for the clubhouse. Spring hmPI&pll sore back, and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Baltimore Orioles 41. Reese, who has missed 15 pmes this spring because o( a apnined finger on his other hand, wu augry to have more sprint trainiq misfortune. "I never got hit this much before. Ever," Reese aaid. Reese said the hand felt fine and wouldn't be a problem. Neagle had all, kinds of problems in his final spring start. The leftbander gave up nine runs and four homers in five innings, raising his . ERA to 9.72. He has allowed 10 homers this spring. Batista's three-run shot made it 4-0 in the first. Neagle allowed only two singles over the next three innings, then lost his cool and his concentration after retiring the first two batters in the fifth. He walked Homer Bush and gave up Raul Mondesi's sixth homer. After throwing two balls to Carlos Delgado, he yelled at Erickson from th-.mound. After throwing two more balls to walk Delgado, Neagle gestured to Erickson from in front of the mound and yelled again, que5tioning his strike zone. , "I'm ticked off at myself because I let him take me out of my game;• Neagl,e said. "You can't do .that, spring training or not. If you want to prepare mentally, that's one of the those things you sometimes deal with. · . . · "I might has well have thrown right-handed those last three or four batters because my mind was so out of it." The next two batters ·- Batista and Marty Cordova - hit homers to put the Blue Jays ahead 9~2 .

"I went upstairs to see him and when I came back I was still shak- . Week of April 3rd-7th ing," Oates said. At Fort Myers, Fla., Pedro Martinez's final spring outing produced a To Our CU11tomer1 & Potential CU11tomera1 Boston victory, six strikeouts in five innings and relief that his exhibition season is over.
