Now he picks them mostly to give away to his friends, many of whom aren't able to get out and do it for themselves. Burton says he marvels at the berries, which go to wa ste b ec ause so few have th e ambition to get o ut and pick them. He says that almost every day he's out picking, somebody driving by sto ps and wants to buy his oerries. His response, "they're not for sale," and then he issues an invitation fo r them to get a pail and pick a few. Nobody ever shows up, he says, not even kids who could sell the bernes for a "pretty p enny." __Sin ce..he retired-from th •-K-yger Creek Power Plant about nine years ago, Burton says he has more time to pick berries.

Circleville judge rules against Marathon Ashland CIRCLEVILLE (AP) - A judge has . ruled in favor of landowners try-ing to block plans for a petroleum pipeline between West Virginia and central Ohio. Judge P, Randall Knece agreed with landowners that Marathon Ashland Petroleum does not have the right to build the pipeline through their property. Marathon Ashland sued landowners who refused to grant an easement for the 130-mile pipeline that would carry diesel fuel.jet fuel and other products from Ken- ova, WVa., to Columbus. The company has acquired 88 percent of rhe right of way it needs for the project, spokesman Chuck Rice said Monday. Knece of Pickaway County Common Pleas Court ruled late last week that Ohio law does not allow Marathon Ashland to use eminent domain to get access ro the rest of the land. Knece also ruled that Olllo law allows the use of eminent domain only to build pipelines that transport petroleum . Morathon Ashland's pipeline would carry processed products. The judge noted that Marathon Ashland is free to negotiate with the holdouts. "This court will not, however, permit (the company) to use the extraordinary power of eminent domain to force unwilling landowners to encumber their real property with a pipeline built to transport finished products that have alternative means of transportation," the judge ruled. Rice said the ruling was unfortunate. The pipeline " rea lly could help everyone by providing another avenue of supply to the ever-growing central Ohio market," he said. A lawyer for the landowners didn 't immediately return a phone call. One of the landowners, Berry Gutheil, has rejected the company's offer for the right of way across her 275-acre farm in northern Pickaway County in south-central Ohio.

As pointed out by Mildred Ziegler, longtime camp secretarytreasurer, the project IS one that involves not only Modern Woodmen members, but many others in the community. In early May, Ziegler along with others, began making contacts with Meigs County businesses, professionals and o thers asking for contributions to the fund-raiser. The donations came in the form of food for the dinner, needed supplies and money. The names of the contributors were put on a la rge poster and hung in the hall for everyone to see. The goal, of course, was to raise at least $2,500 so the camp could qualify for a full match of$2,500. This year, the amount was exceeded by $1,500 for a total $6,500 going to Meigs EMS and Scipio VFD. Use of the money is decided locally and then approved by the national agency.

You .suggested they take brief, romantic getaways, and that she should compromise by having sex three times a week. Ann, this worrian doesn't need romance. She needs help. Instead of bringing her romantic gifts, her husband should assume responsibility for the kids for a few hours every evening. He could take them to the park, fix them supper, bathe them, and put them to bed while Mom luxuriates in a hot tub. My guess is that after Dad does this seve ral nights in a row, not only will his wife be more in terested in sex, but he will be less interested because he will finally understand what it means to be exhausted. - Peggy Out East Dear Peggy: The applause and cheers you hear are from tired wives and moth ers who have been there and done · Ohio Valley Publishing Co.

Despite predictability,.there's little excuse for apathy In a lew weeks. Democrats, Republicans and Retorm party organizations will stage their nominating conventions for the presidency. With the outcome of all three as sure as death and taxes. it's likely lack of interest from the voting public may reach an all- time high. That's been the problem Wtth the nominating process for the past several Whtte House races, starting with Ronald Reagdn and Walter Mon~e in 1984. There was littk ·doubt after \he primaries who would be th e standard bearers. Both had earned enough delegates during the primaries to ensure a lock on the nomination. The pattern has continued, and wtth it, a decrease in the number of people either payi ng attention or going to the polls in November. Even MTV has to air public affairs programming every four years to alert its viewers to the fact there is a presidential race. It's a disturbing trend that need< to be addressed. But as in many things, it requires individual involvement. We have to keep tabs on the candidates a.nd track their positions on issues. The man who is elected this fall will have an impa ct on our lives tor the next four or, possibly, eight years . Admittedly, we arc beaten to death with political coverage, which may account for some of the apathy. But perhaps another factor in the predictability of sdectmg a president is that the system is too controlled. Walter Cmnktte pointed out that after the networks provided gavelto-gavel reporting on the 1952 conventions - warts and ·au - the parties became more Secretlve about infighting over candidates and platforms. As a result, conventions aren't anywhere near as rnuch fun as tht!y once were. In effect, ev<rything is decided before the auditorium opens. All the party requires is token approval from delegJtes. What happens outside the convention hall st:ems w draw more interest than what's inside. Of course, when Cronkite--began coverii1g conve ntions, "there . was still suspense in the ai r over who would be chose n president.The system was loose enough and popular movements strong enough for the proverbial " dark horse" to come b ut of nowhere an d win the nomination over the apparent frunt-rurmer. It may be too late in ,the day to change how the parties conduct their business, but pundits' contention that convcncions arc a thing of the . past n1ay have some merit. However. if they are to con tinue, conventions remain a good starting off point for Americans to get a primer on the campaign and those who want to lead us. The networks and news channels have reduced their coverage of conventions, bur there is enough information out there to educate the public about what these candidates advocate. If we are to elect a president and spend the next several years complaining about him or his policies, then we hal(!( nobody to blame it on but ourselves. · Today, making an informed choice is an option, not a privilege, lor every American. Check o ut Gore, George W. or other candidates. And if you're still at a loss, then li sten to their acceptance speeches.The messages in th em will be heard for months to co m e. TODAY IN .

They need a lift, and a thoughtful husband will provide it. Also, the time he spends with the kids while she is "luxuriating in the tub" will establish a meaningful bond that will pay big dividends in the future. Kids don't forget that. Dear Ann Landers: Please tell your readers they should not only have life insurance, but nursing home insurance, as well. Some long-term care i.s so expensive you have to sell your home and live in a rented room or with the kids to pay for it. When I found out the cost of caring for my husband, l worried about how I could afford it. Not everyone is lucky e nough to die before they hit th e floor. Most of us will need some kind of long-term care before we pass on. Nursing home insurance is not advertised the way life insurance is. l had to ask my insurance age nt about it. S\'me poli-· cics will pay for nursing care in your own home, ranging from $10 an hour to $125 for the day. All you have to do is call a nursing home and find out what it costs per day to understand the importanc~ of this kind of insu ran ce. · I feel blessed that l haven't required nursing care yet, but it cou ld happen .The younger you are, the lower the payments.

Ashley's concern had to do with cheap goods made in China competing unfairly with American-made goods. Religious Liberty Protection Act if passed by Congress would prohibit state or local government placing burde!]S on a person's religious expression or conduct unless the government demonstrates a compelling interest. The need for this act, said Ashley. is indicated by recent actions in Oregon that would grant a church a permit so long as it closed on Saturdays and refrained from performing weddings or funerals or using alcoholic sacramental wine on lt~ premises. Also, a Wisconsin city recently tried to require a couple to obtain a permit to hold a Bible study. This is H.R. 3125.

Dear Ann Landers: l hope you haven 't locked up the cat issue, because I would like to add some information from the Minnesota Wildlife Rehabilita tion C linic. Last year. the Wildlife Rehabilitation Clinic treated over 600 wild animals whose injuries had been caused by cats and dogs. A study conducted in England estimated that pet cals kill 70 million native wtld animals every year. In Wisconsin, rural cats kill 19 million songbirds and 140,000 game birds annually. This means our native wildlife faces dccima. tion due, in part, to cat predators. You · are legally responsible f(Jr your pet's behavior. It ls required in most ci ties that both cats and dogs be restrained . They can be impounded tf found roamin g free, and you would have to pay a fcc for their release.

You .suggested they take brief, romantic getaways, and that she should compromise by having sex three times a week. Ann, this worrian doesn't need romance. She needs help. Instead of bringing her romantic gifts, her husband should assume responsibility for the kids for a few hours every evening. He could take them to the park, fix them supper, bathe them, and put them to bed while Mom luxuriates in a hot tub. My guess is that after Dad does this seve ral nights in a row, not only will his wife be more in terested in sex, but he will be less interested because he will finally understand what it means to be exhausted. - Peggy Out East Dear Peggy: The applause and cheers you hear are from tired wives and moth ers who have been there and done · Ohio Valley Publishing Co.

Despite predictability,.there's little excuse for apathy In a lew weeks. Democrats, Republicans and Retorm party organizations will stage their nominating conventions for the presidency. With the outcome of all three as sure as death and taxes. it's likely lack of interest from the voting public may reach an all- time high. That's been the problem Wtth the nominating process for the past several Whtte House races, starting with Ronald Reagdn and Walter Mon~e in 1984. There was littk ·doubt after \he primaries who would be th e standard bearers. Both had earned enough delegates during the primaries to ensure a lock on the nomination. The pattern has continued, and wtth it, a decrease in the number of people either payi ng attention or going to the polls in November. Even MTV has to air public affairs programming every four years to alert its viewers to the fact there is a presidential race. It's a disturbing trend that need< to be addressed. But as in many things, it requires individual involvement. We have to keep tabs on the candidates a.nd track their positions on issues. The man who is elected this fall will have an impa ct on our lives tor the next four or, possibly, eight years . Admittedly, we arc beaten to death with political coverage, which may account for some of the apathy. But perhaps another factor in the predictability of sdectmg a president is that the system is too controlled. Walter Cmnktte pointed out that after the networks provided gavelto-gavel reporting on the 1952 conventions - warts and ·au - the parties became more Secretlve about infighting over candidates and platforms. As a result, conventions aren't anywhere near as rnuch fun as tht!y once were. In effect, ev<rything is decided before the auditorium opens. All the party requires is token approval from delegJtes. What happens outside the convention hall st:ems w draw more interest than what's inside. Of course, when Cronkite--began coverii1g conve ntions, "there . was still suspense in the ai r over who would be chose n president.The system was loose enough and popular movements strong enough for the proverbial " dark horse" to come b ut of nowhere an d win the nomination over the apparent frunt-rurmer. It may be too late in ,the day to change how the parties conduct their business, but pundits' contention that convcncions arc a thing of the . past n1ay have some merit. However. if they are to con tinue, conventions remain a good starting off point for Americans to get a primer on the campaign and those who want to lead us. The networks and news channels have reduced their coverage of conventions, bur there is enough information out there to educate the public about what these candidates advocate. If we are to elect a president and spend the next several years complaining about him or his policies, then we hal(!( nobody to blame it on but ourselves. · Today, making an informed choice is an option, not a privilege, lor every American. Check o ut Gore, George W. or other candidates. And if you're still at a loss, then li sten to their acceptance speeches.The messages in th em will be heard for months to co m e. TODAY IN .

They need a lift, and a thoughtful husband will provide it. Also, the time he spends with the kids while she is "luxuriating in the tub" will establish a meaningful bond that will pay big dividends in the future. Kids don't forget that. Dear Ann Landers: Please tell your readers they should not only have life insurance, but nursing home insurance, as well. Some long-term care i.s so expensive you have to sell your home and live in a rented room or with the kids to pay for it. When I found out the cost of caring for my husband, l worried about how I could afford it. Not everyone is lucky e nough to die before they hit th e floor. Most of us will need some kind of long-term care before we pass on. Nursing home insurance is not advertised the way life insurance is. l had to ask my insurance age nt about it. S\'me poli-· cics will pay for nursing care in your own home, ranging from $10 an hour to $125 for the day. All you have to do is call a nursing home and find out what it costs per day to understand the importanc~ of this kind of insu ran ce. · I feel blessed that l haven't required nursing care yet, but it cou ld happen .The younger you are, the lower the payments. Urge your readers not to wait until it's too late. Tell them to get smart and get insurance. - Dea.verton, Ore. Dear Beaver: YOU told them, and I appreciate it because l did not know th at such insurance was available.

On one particular hole, on which they had a rnodest $5 wager, t hey had a dispute over each other's scores. I thought nothing of it , as. the pair often have their on-course argu ments, before forgetting about them over a post-round cocktail. But on this recent occaSion, tlietr dispute turned decidedly ugly. First they were in each other's f.1ces . Then there was a shove. Then clubs were drawn. Had I not intervened, they just might have killed each other. One of th em could have ended up like Mi chael Costin. · Yet, these men are supposed to be ditlerent. Both are educated.

Radne Grange meets RACINE - Several legislative issues including current U.S. policies for Communist China and the religious liberty protection act , were discussed when Racine Grange met recently at the hall. Keith Ashley, legislative director, pointed out that Red China was be en in creasing its defense budget over lO percent per year for the last 12 years, has openly called the United States its enemy and has formed friendly relations with Russia The U.S . government recently gave Red China permanent Most Favored National Status giving it open trading with the U.S. This, according to Ashley. will allo~v Chin a to dump in the U.

Ashley's concern had to do with cheap goods made in China competing unfairly with American-made goods. Religious Liberty Protection Act if passed by Congress would prohibit state or local government placing burde!]S on a person's religious expression or conduct unless the government demonstrates a compelling interest. The need for this act, said Ashley. is indicated by recent actions in Oregon that would grant a church a permit so long as it closed on Saturdays and refrained from performing weddings or funerals or using alcoholic sacramental wine on lt~ premises. Also, a Wisconsin city recently tried to require a couple to obtain a permit to hold a Bible study. This is H.R. 3125. The Senate has.just passed a bill banning high school, college, and Olympic sports gambling.

A report was given on the 4th of July parade in Racine. Racine Grange built its patriotic float at Jean Alkire's home. It won first place for the third year in a row. This year's premium was less than last year's and in the form of a savings bond making it impossible to recoup any of the cost of the float for six months. Current plans are to discontinue participation in the parade. Gerald Crawf0rd was given the Grange short form induction ceremony as a new member.

Last year. the Wildlife Rehabilitation Clinic treated over 600 wild animals whose injuries had been caused by cats and dogs. A study conducted in England estimated that pet cals kill 70 million native wtld animals every year. In Wisconsin, rural cats kill 19 million songbirds and 140,000 game birds annually. This means our native wildlife faces dccima. tion due, in part, to cat predators. You · are legally responsible f(Jr your pet's behavior.

PRESERVING FOOD - Becky Baer, Meigs extension agent. conduct· ed a workshop on techniques for _preserving food Friday. She demonstrated the preparation of fruits and vegetables for canning, how to pack them in the jars, and the actual processing in a hot water bath or pressure cooker. mg. U se the right canner to process foods . A boiling wate r bath is used when preserving high-acid foods, such as fruits , jellies, and pickles. The acid level in these foods are high enough to prevent bacterial growth. Only a pressure canner should be used to process low -acid foods , such as vegetables, meats, and combinations of them. The pressure canner is also being recommended for tomatoes, because the newer varieties are becoming lower in ac id. Low-acid foods allow the growth of bacteria that can cause the deadly foodborn e illness known as b o tulism. Pressure canners should be vented by allowing steam to escape for ten minutes befo re pressurizing. This removes the air that can interfere with a true pressure reading. Process foods for the correct amount of time and pressure. To have the latest research information on correct times and pressures, contact the E xten sio n Carefully remove j ars from the can ner and place on seve ral layers of towels for 12-24 hours at room tempe rature away fro m a draft. Do not reti ghten lids. T his could break the seal. A good way to test the seal is to press the middle of the lid with your finger. If the lid comes up after re moving your finger. the lid ts not sealed. If the jar did not seal , you can either reprocess it in ano ther sterilized jar with a new lid within 24 hou rs, or refrigerate and eat it within the next two days. R emove screw bands before stori ng. Label and date the jar of food, and sto re it in a cool, dry, dark place. Use the oldest jars of food first to ensure top quality. When preparing low-acid foods for eating, boil the food 20 minutes before tasting to kill any botulism bacteria that may still be present. Even though the food w as processed in a pressure can: ner, thi s bacteria can still grow. This additional boiliqg will make the food safe. Republican 'marriage-penalty' tax cut nears passage WASHI NGTON (AP) - R epublicans ate on the brink of sending President Clinton a centerpiece of their election-year tax relief agenda, a bill cutting income taXes $248 billion over 10 years for millions of married .couples. The Senate was expected to pass the "marriage penalty" bill Tuesday, sending it to the Hou se. where swift approval also was anticipated. Republicans are aiming to send the legislation to Cli nton before the GOP's national politi cal co nve nti on begins July 31 in Philadelphia in hopes of drawing public attention to their differences with Democrats on tax curs. , "We will see who supports marriage taX relief, and we w ill see who thinks American families are not entided to this relief;' said Sen. William Roth , R- Del. , the Senate Finance Committee chairman. Clinton has said he could sign "the measure into law only under one condition:That C ~m­ gress also send him an acceptable bill creating a prescription drug b.enefit in the· Medicare program. White House spokesman Joe Lockhart accused Republicans of playing politics by passing the tax- cut bill alone to force a veto. "They can make political points, pass bills so they can talk about them at their convention, or we can get ma~riage penalty relief and prescription drugs for seniors," Lockhart said. "It's up to them: politics or substance?" Elimination of the marriage penalty was the centerpiece of the $792 billion R epublican tax cut that Clinton vetoed last year. Republicans have spent this year passing bite-sized pieces of that larger tax cut using the huge anticipated budget surplus; hoping to frame clearer election -yea r distihctions between themselves and Democrats. . A Treasury Department analysis of seven GOP tax measures that have passed the House Ways and M eans Committee this year said that together, 76 percent of the cuts ,).\'Ould go to the 23 mi llion wealthiest families. The remaining 91 milli on famili es would get just over 23 percent. Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers told reporters the administration prefers tax cuts targeted at low- and midcile-income taxpayers instead of"large ta:x cuts that are heavily backloaded and primarily bene6t the highestincom e Ameri ca ns ."

(AP) - · A formet doctor implicated in a string of patient and co-worker poisonings has pleaded innocent to charges that he killed three patients at a Long Island hospitaL An attorney for Michael Swango, 45 , entered the pleas in federal court Monday. A nine- count indictment charges him with the 1993 murders at the Veterans Affairs Hospital in Northport. The indictment also alleges Swango was responsible for the death of a 19- year-old woman and the non-fatal poisoning of another patient at the Ohio State University Medical Center in 1984. Swango was never prosecuted in those cases. Swango's lawyer, Randi Chavis, said in court that there was "no direct evidence" to support the charges. No trial date was set. Page 81 \ . WASHINGTON (AP) - On the fourth anniversary of the crash ofTWA Flight 800, two witnesses criticized investigaton Monday for doing too little to determine the source o f a light they say they saw in the sky near the doomed plane. They speculated the light might have been a missile. Investigators of the wreckage have found no evidence that a missile struck the plane, National Transportation and Safety Board spokesman Paul Schlamm told The Associated Press. The board, expected to pronounce its findings next month, has focused on mechanical malfunction in the Boeing 747's center fuel tanks as the cause of the explosion that brought it down . All 230 people on board were killed in the July 17, 1996, crash . Dwight Brumley, who watched as a passenger on another flight 5 ,000 feet above Flight 800, said he told his story to the FBI but felt it wasn't taken seriously. "I could not positively say that what I saw was a missile. What I saw was a very bright flame of light movin g parallel to my aircraft;' Brumley said at a news conference. Tom Stalcup, chairman of a group called the Flight 800 Independent Researchers, said 260 eyewitnesses told the FBI that they saw a light in the sky before the crash. Of them, 96 said they saw it originate from the surface. The Daily Sentinel MLB: Colorpdo ends slide, Page B6 Daily Scoreboard, Page B6 NATIONAL BRIEFS Office.

Preserve only the fres hes t foods. The slogan "two hours from garden to jar" is good to follow. This will help 1ninimi-ze bacterial growth that can lead to food spoilage. Make sure all equipment is working properly. It is recommended that press ure ca nn~ r gauges be tested annually. The Extens ion Office chec ks canner lids on Monday morni ngs. Call 992-6696 fo r an appointment to have yours exanlined. Use clean, sterili zed gla>S canningjars tha t are free of nic ks and chips. Any small crack will allow air in, which wo uld prevent a vacuum seal fro m occ u rring. Follow the manufacturer's directions w h e n preparing lids. Lids were meant to only be used once, because the seal would be broken upon opening. After fi lli ng j ars. run a knife around t he in side to remove air bubbles. Leave the correct amount of hea dspace. Wipe jar tops with a clean wet cloth to remove any particles of food that could prevent the jar fro m seal- sure. .. PRESERVING FOOD - Becky Baer, Meigs extension agent. conduct· ed a workshop on techniques for _preserving food Friday. She demonstrated the preparation of fruits and vegetables for canning, how to pack them in the jars, and the actual processing in a hot water bath or pressure cooker. mg. U se the right canner to process foods . A boiling wate r bath is used when preserving high-acid foods, such as fruits , jellies, and pickles. The acid level in these foods are high enough to prevent bacterial growth. Only a pressure canner should be used to process low -acid foods , such as vegetables, meats, and combinations of them. The pressure canner is also being recommended for tomatoes, because the newer varieties are becoming lower in ac id. Low-acid foods allow the growth of bacteria that can cause the deadly foodborn e illness known as b o tulism. Pressure canners should be vented by allowing steam to escape for ten minutes befo re pressurizing. This removes the air that can interfere with a true pressure reading. Process foods for the correct amount of time and pressure. To have the latest research information on correct times and pressures, contact the E xten sio n Carefully remove j ars from the can ner and place on seve ral layers of towels for 12-24 hours at room tempe rature away fro m a draft. Do not reti ghten lids. T his could break the seal. A good way to test the seal is to press the middle of the lid with your finger. If the lid comes up after re moving your finger. the lid ts not sealed. If the jar did not seal , you can either reprocess it in ano ther sterilized jar with a new lid within 24 hou rs, or refrigerate and eat it within the next two days. R emove screw bands before stori ng. Label and date the jar of food, and sto re it in a cool, dry, dark place. Use the oldest jars of food first to ensure top quality. When preparing low-acid foods for eating, boil the food 20 minutes before tasting to kill any botulism bacteria that may still be present. Even though the food w as processed in a pressure can: ner, thi s bacteria can still grow. This additional boiliqg will make the food safe. Republican 'marriage-penalty' tax cut nears passage WASHI NGTON (AP) - R epublicans ate on the brink of sending President Clinton a centerpiece of their election-year tax relief agenda, a bill cutting income taXes $248 billion over 10 years for millions of married .couples. The Senate was expected to pass the "marriage penalty" bill Tuesday, sending it to the Hou se. where swift approval also was anticipated. Republicans are aiming to send the legislation to Cli nton before the GOP's national politi cal co nve nti on begins July 31 in Philadelphia in hopes of drawing public attention to their differences with Democrats on tax curs. , "We will see who supports marriage taX relief, and we w ill see who thinks American families are not entided to this relief;' said Sen. William Roth , R- Del. , the Senate Finance Committee chairman. Clinton has said he could sign "the measure into law only under one condition:That C ~m­ gress also send him an acceptable bill creating a prescription drug b.enefit in the· Medicare program. White House spokesman Joe Lockhart accused Republicans of playing politics by passing the tax- cut bill alone to force a veto. "They can make political points, pass bills so they can talk about them at their convention, or we can get ma~riage penalty relief and prescription drugs for seniors," Lockhart said. "It's up to them: politics or substance?" Elimination of the marriage penalty was the centerpiece of the $792 billion R epublican tax cut that Clinton vetoed last year. Republicans have spent this year passing bite-sized pieces of that larger tax cut using the huge anticipated budget surplus; hoping to frame clearer election -yea r distihctions between themselves and Democrats. . A Treasury Department analysis of seven GOP tax measures that have passed the House Ways and M eans Committee this year said that together, 76 percent of the cuts ,).\'Ould go to the 23 mi llion wealthiest families. The remaining 91 milli on famili es would get just over 23 percent. Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers told reporters the administration prefers tax cuts targeted at low- and midcile-income taxpayers instead of"large ta:x cuts that are heavily backloaded and primarily bene6t the highestincom e Ameri ca ns ."

(AP) - · A formet doctor implicated in a string of patient and co-worker poisonings has pleaded innocent to charges that he killed three patients at a Long Island hospitaL An attorney for Michael Swango, 45 , entered the pleas in federal court Monday. A nine- count indictment charges him with the 1993 murders at the Veterans Affairs Hospital in Northport. The indictment also alleges Swango was responsible for the death of a 19- year-old woman and the non-fatal poisoning of another patient at the Ohio State University Medical Center in 1984. Swango was never prosecuted in those cases. Swango's lawyer, Randi Chavis, said in court that there was "no direct evidence" to support the charges. No trial date was set. Page 81 \ . WASHINGTON (AP) - On the fourth anniversary of the crash ofTWA Flight 800, two witnesses criticized investigaton Monday for doing too little to determine the source o f a light they say they saw in the sky near the doomed plane. They speculated the light might have been a missile. Investigators of the wreckage have found no evidence that a missile struck the plane, National Transportation and Safety Board spokesman Paul Schlamm told The Associated Press. The board, expected to pronounce its findings next month, has focused on mechanical malfunction in the Boeing 747's center fuel tanks as the cause of the explosion that brought it down . All 230 people on board were killed in the July 17, 1996, crash . Dwight Brumley, who watched as a passenger on another flight 5 ,000 feet above Flight 800, said he told his story to the FBI but felt it wasn't taken seriously. "I could not positively say that what I saw was a missile. What I saw was a very bright flame of light movin g parallel to my aircraft;' Brumley said at a news conference. Tom Stalcup, chairman of a group called the Flight 800 Independent Researchers, said 260 eyewitnesses told the FBI that they saw a light in the sky before the crash. Of them, 96 said they saw it originate from the surface. The Daily Sentinel MLB: Colorpdo ends slide, Page B6 Daily Scoreboard, Page B6 NATIONAL BRIEFS Office.

The most likely explan_ation is that he needs·a misdefense and is hoping the opponents don't wake up in t1me. fn this deal, you are sitting East, defending against three notrump. Your partner leads the heart I 0: ace, queen (you should unblock), three. Declarer call s for the spade jack. Have you made your play yet? Even if using a 16-18 one-notrump opening, North's hand is: too strong . With an excellent fivecard suil and good controls (aces an d kin g> ), it is worth 19 points. When the dummy comes down. you should stop and think for a few moments , even .if declare r calls immediately for dummy's card . And one question you should ask is: What is declarer likely to do at trick two? Here, if South doesn't ha ve the diamond ace. he will surely establish that suit. So, when he doesn't do th at, it :s because he has the diamond ace. Ergo. the suit is ready to r\111 and declarer has eight top ·tricks: one heart, f:v e diamonds and two clubs. Thi s also means that if South holds the heart king, he has nine tricks. Yet why is he calling for the spade jack'' Because he does n' t have the heart king and is trying to sneak his ninth tri c k. Don 't fall for it : Jump in with the spade ace and continue wi th . the heart jack . Here. partner wi ll overtake with· the kin g and cash · out for two. down. Not,e that if you duck at trick two. declarer will go up with his king and run for home.

When the dummy comes down. you should stop and think for a few moments , even .if declare r calls immediately for dummy's card . And one question you should ask is: What is declarer likely to do at trick two? Here, if South doesn't ha ve the diamond ace. he will surely establish that suit. So, when he doesn't do th at, it :s because he has the diamond ace. Ergo. the suit is ready to r\111 and declarer has eight top ·tricks: one heart, f:v e diamonds and two clubs. Thi s also means that if South holds the heart king, he has nine tricks. Yet why is he calling for the spade jack'' Because he does n' t have the heart king and is trying to sneak his ninth tri c k.

Birdie opportunities aboun d on the front nine, but tlle prevailing winds could raise havoc on the way back to the clubhouse. The Old Course is indeed playing hard and fast, as always, perhaps harder and faster than ever. "I was shocked with how firm the greens were and the fairways;' Singh said. "And the practice green is almost as hard as concrete. You hurt your hand trying to hit it, but you have to get used to that. If you don't, then you are not going to contend, I guess.'' Singh had some success the last time the Open was held here in 1995, finishing two strokes back of John Daly after four three-putts on the final nine holes. And he said he likes the way his game is right now, particularly his putting. "I think I'm a much better putter than I've ever been ," Singh said.
