Miami's Szczerbiak also gets first-team all-American basketball honors

Utah's Miller gets NEA's vote as
By H,W, SINER

.

'

·'

.

·'

NEW YORK (NEAl - Andre
Miller is a master of all trades.
No wonder the 6- foot-2 senior
point guard for the University of
Utah became the leading player this
season in college basketball .
" He's what I cal l the queen o n the
chess board/' says ESPN TV sports
analyst Len Elm ore about Miller.
" He does so many things to help his
team win - making the plays , scoring, re bounding, playing defense."
Beca use of hi s contri butions,
Miller is the choice of Newspaper
Enterprise Association to lead its
1999 all -America m en's basketball
team.
Miller sparked the Utes to a 27-4
record and an NCAA tournament
berth .
His average statistics per game
were 15 .9 points, 5. 8 assists, 5.5
re bo unds and 2.5 steals. But the real
story goes beyond the numbers.
" Andre Miller is the focal po int,"
Elmore says. " He does so much on
the fl oor th at he li terally raises the

level of his .team's pl ay. And he's a
lockdown defensive player. He really
shuts down the other g uys. "
Join ing Mill er o n NEA's all America men's team :
Elton Brand, · a 6-foot-8 sophomore center at Duke.
Richard Ham ilto n, a 6-foot-6
j unior guard at Connecticut.
Wally Szczerbiak , a 6-foot-8
senior forward at Miami of Ohio.
Tim J ames, 6-foot-7 senior forward at Miami of Florida.
These NEA selec ti ons 'were syndicated to more than 600 U. S. daily
ne wspapers .
·
Miller stood out as the nation's
best beca use of his leadership during
a season in which the most hotly
contested position was point guard.
"The key to Miller is he makes
the pl ays, " notes Elmore. " It 's more
than just getting assists. It 's not o nly
mov ing the ball to the guy who can
make a jump shot. I'm tal king about
drawing defenders and fi ndi ng the
open men - making .his teammates
better players. "

For coach of the year, Rick
Majerus of Utah was the choice of
Newspaper Enterpri se Association.
Majerus once again guided' his team
farther than expected . After a slow
stan, the Utes became notable winners, riding all the way to the title in
the Western Athletic Confe rence
tournament.
Selected for NEA's. all-America
second team : guards Jason Terry, a 62 seni or at Arizona, a nd Steve
Francis, a 6-foot-3 junior at
M ary land ; center Evan Eschmeyer, a
6- foot- 11 senior at Northwestern;
and forwards Chri s Porter, a 6- foot-7
junior at Auburn, and Jamel Thomas,
a 6-foot-6 senior at Pro vidence.
The popular preseason pick for
player of the year was Brand .
In only his second season, the
260-pound pi vot man led top-ranked
Duke to a 32- 1 record, the first-ever
unbeaten mark ( 16-0) during the regular season in the Atlantic Coast
Conference and its tournament
crown.
"There's just . no t a better post

~est

male· college player

player in the country than Elton
Brand," ·according to Elmore. "He's
as dominant as they come."
Brand scored 17.8 points per
game, grabbed 9 .9 rebounds per
game and blocked 2.2 sho ts per
game. His fie ld ~goal percentage :
6 1.6.
Elmore, who was a three-time allACC star at Maryl and in ttie early
1970s, says Brand's greatness was
overshadowed by the success of the
Blue Devils.
" He's also a better defender than
you would think," Elmore adds.
For another highly rated team the University of Connecticut, which
sai led into the NCAA tournament at
28-2 - Richard Hamilton was the
" go-to" star.
" He's a pretty dam good choice at
shooting guard ," Elmore says. " If
you look at what he 's been able to
brin g to the table at UConn, you 'd
have to say that he brings everything :
mobility, range , quickness. I don't
see so m ariy guys out there at that
position who have done what. he's

been able to do."
Hamilton 's averaged 2 1.3 points
per game and 4.8 rebounds per game.
At the 'free-lhrow line, he made
84.2 percent of his shots.
~ " For a couple of weeks his galne
suffered," says Elmore of Hamilton.
" But ov~rall he's been consistent."
So has Szczerbiak, o therwise·
known as " Wally World."
He was fourth in the country in
scoring with 24. 1 points per game.
Szczerbiak led Miami of Ohio to a
22-7 mark and an at- large bid fro m
the Mid-American Conference in the
NCAA tournament. There he wowed
basketball fans with his ability .to
score.
"Obviously, he can shoot the
ball," Elmore notes. " He's a surpris- ·
ingly dece nt rebounder (8.7 per
game ) for a shooter. His problem is
putting the ball on the fl oor. He's fortunate lhat at 6-8 he shoots over most

ure for Miam i o f Florida.

'..
•

•

t ..

He helped the Hurricanes of the • .
Big East to a .22-6 record .

.

James averaged 18.9 points per "
game with 8.4 rebounds and 2.1 ':'
blocks.
E lmore says: " I like Tim James'
game. He comes 10 play every day.
He has the ability to play within
system and still get his. He rarely
veers outside of the system. B ut he.
finds 8 way to let the game come to
him. He can still dominate on the
defensive end _ he's an excellent
shot blocker."

Holdsclaw, No. I among the UT
All-Stars, wasn' t·exactly perfect.
"Chamique may · have suffered
fro m a little bit of boredom during
the regular season," says Gri ffin . "It
certainly wasn' t a consistent exhibitio n. But when she was int o it, she
was as good or better thari last year.' '
Holdsclaw can hit from the o utside, take the wi ng. slash inside or
play the baseline. " She can ·stop on a
dime with two or three people on
her," Griffin says, "and she has o ne
of the smoothest jump shots that I've
seen in a long, long time - male or

female."
Griffin says Holdsclaw 's goal as a
player was an NCAA title record.
" A fourth national championship
has never been done," notes Griffin .
" It can never be beaten . Nobody' s
going to earn more than four. "
Durin g the season , Holdsclaw 's
lame didn 't go unchallenged.
''Who is . the best player? It 's
C hamique Holdsclaw," says Griffin .
"Who did more for her team thi s
year'/ It was Stephanie WhiteMcCarty."
She
led
the
top-ranked
Boi lermakers to a 28-1 season.
"Stephanie White-McCany is a
throwback," Griffin say s. " I just
smile when I think about her.· Our
game has suffered from too many
great athletes and not enough great
basketball players. She is a great basketball player." .
Her vital statistics: 20.7 points per
game, 5.8 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 2. 12
steal s - plus a three-point shooting
percentage of 45.9.

Griffin praises White-McCarty's
fund am ental s kill s, her me ntal
toughness, her stamina, her preparation and her grasp of nuances on the
court.
" It 's the little things ," Griffin
says. " The way she handles the ball
- the angles that she attacks in order
to break dowQ defenses and open up
the passing lanes. It's an incredible
display of her knowledge of the
game."
On de fense, her intelligence
makes up for any physical limita-.
tions.
With the Lady Vols, Kellie Jolly
(8 .0 ppg, 4.2 apg) also excelled.
"She's a true point guard," s ays
GriffiQ. " She has an uncanny sense
of changing tempo, getting the ball to
the right place or shooting when the
team needs her to shoot from the outside. Her defen se is very good, too."
Ruth Riley of Notre Dame 16.7 points per game with 8.8
rebounds and 3.4 blocks is
described by Griffin as '.' a command-

ing presence inside,"
· '
Griffin says: " I really like Ruth ~
Riley because of how mobile she i$,
her shot-blocking skills and her abi l- •
ity to take the physical contact." • ~

" Ken Starr has it," Ms . Lewinsky shot back with a laugh,
dropping the name of .the special prosecutor whose investigation
of her affair with President Clinton nearly_drove Clinton from
office.

Andrew Morton , tells of her relationship with the president.
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) - There was a bit of mystery last week
when Rod Stewart canceled his only concert here because of an ·
unknown scheduling conflict.
The mys(ery may have been solved.
.
Stewart was seen at an Academy Awards party in L~s Angeles
on Sunday night, the night he was to have performed at the University of Toledo's Savage Hall.
About 6,000 of the 6,500 tickets available had been sold for
the show in Toledo. It was not rescheduled.
·
" I don't know anything about the situation," said Paul Freundlich, one of the singer's publicists.
John ltsell, the concert's promoter, said it's up to the anists to
decide " what they feel is more imponant to them. "
Reba Sarver, who had won two tickets to the concen, said she
could understand had Stewan been nominated for an Oscar.
" It's a bummer," she said. " I guess that 's what you do if

you're a star."

Meigs County has received a matching fund giant from
the Ohio Department of Development, Office of Housing
and Community Partnerships for the purchase of creating a
farmland preservation plan for the county. The County is
joined by the Meigs Soil and Water Conservation District as
a.coordinating agency, to aid in the formation of this plan.
The need fo1 a "farmland preservation plan is based on
these assumptions:
1. Farmland is being converted to non-agricultural uses in
our county.
2. There is a potential for problems arising because of
conflicting or competing land uses in our county.
3. Public dollars are currently being spent as a result of
land use decisions.
.
4. Agriculture is a viable part of our county.
One of the requirements for receiving the grant is that a
Task Force must be established. The Task Force is to
include appointed members that represent a . wide cross

McDougal tells court she· knows little about Whitewater
By PEGGY HARRIS
AIIOC..ted Prell Writer
LITTI..E ROCK, Ark. - Susan
McDougal occasionally dabbed tears
from her eyes as she testified that her
husband's mental illness was the
undoing of their marriage and business and ultimately led to the Whitewater·investigation against President
Clinton.
A fonner business panner of Clinton and first lady Hillary Rodham
Clinton, Mrs. McDougal testified
almost four hours in her own defense
Tuesday. answering some questions
she refused to answer before a federal
grand jury in 1996 and· again last
year.
She was expected to return to the
stand taday in her trial on charges of
obstruction of justice and criminal
contempt of court for refusing to
answer grand jury questions.
Her lawyer, Mark Geragos, said
the testimony Tuesday was a "cathartic" experience for hi s client. She has

IRS cutting
back on use
of 'threat'
audit letters
By CURT ANDERSON
AP Tax Writer
WASHINGTON - The IRS is
cuning back on the use of a new letter criticized as too intimidating to
taxpayers facing audits. The agency
has to fix its heavy-handed wording.
Two months after its inception, the
.Internal Revenue Service announced
Tuesday it will stop sending letters to
all audited taxpayers warning that
their employers, neighbors and even
banks could be contacted.
Beginning next week, the letters
will be mailed only in situations
where the IRS has tried and failed to·
get the needed audit inforrnatuin
from the taxpayer, said IRS Conimissioner Charles Rossotti . A rewrite ·
is in the works.
" Many of these leuers have gone
out too early and needless ly alarn1ed
taxpayers in cases where the IRS had
no need to contact outside parttes,"
Rossotti satd.
The letters, in use since mid-January, were intended by Congress in
the new IRS reform law to be a "fair
warning" to taxpayers that the agency
was preparing to use 1hese

civil-contempt. She again refused to
answer the questions in April last
year and was tndtcted on two count&lt;
of criminal contempt and one count
of obstruction of justice.
Looking· directly at jurors and
choking back tears, Mrs. McDougal
said Tuesday her ex-husband was "a
control person," had a temP-er and
experienced mood swings, but would
not concede at first thai he had a
problem. She said he suffered from
manic depression and had serious
health problems.
The jurors showed no expression.
Some took notes; others rocked in
their chairs.
Mrs. McDougal described how
she was in awe of her husband. trust·

said she refused to answer federal
grand jury questions because she
feared retaliation from prosecutor
Kenneth Starr if he didn 't like what
she said.
"The only way she was going to
get out the .true story here was to tell
it in a counroom," Geragos said out·
side the courthouse.
Mrs. McDougal and her late ex·
husband, James McDougal. were
panners with the Clintons in the
Whitewater real estate venture in
nonhern Arkansas. The McDougals
and then-Gov. Jim Guy Tucker were
convicted of business fraud in 1996.
After that, she refused to answer
grand jury questions about the Clintons and spent 18 months in jail for

ed him and did not realize until their
marriage hit the skids and their Madison Guaranty Savings and Loan was
being investigated by bank examiners that he had a problem.
When McDougal asked her to sign
· a $300,000 loan to her from David
Hale's Capital Management Services.
she"· did not question him, she said.
Hale, a prosecution witness in the
1996 trial, has claimed that Clinton ·
pressured him to make the fraudulent
loan.
Hale has served 21 months of a
28-month se ntence for defrauding the
Small Busi ness Administration
through Capital Management.
Mrs. McDougal said she did not
discuss the loan with Clinton,

cumst{Jnces."

Rossotti said the new policy on 1he
letter more accurately" renects a longstanding IRS practice of resorting to
outside contacts only if all else fails.
"There's no reason to send these
leners when we can work directly
with the taxpayer in most cases,"
Rossotti said.
The IRS is still working on a new
version of the letter that Rossetti said
will be "clearer, better-written" than
the current one. Several tax professional organizations, including AIC'
PA, are involved in improving the
wording.
The current letter says that during
an audit, the IR,S "may need to contact third par11es. Third party contacts
may include, but arc not limited to,
neighbors, employers, employees and
banks. We may use these contacts to
help us detennine_your correct tax liability, identify your assets, or locate
your current address."

Clinton justifies airstrikes to prevent wider war in Europe
By JOHN DIAMOND
Aaeoclated Pr- Writer
WASHINGTON (AP)- The United States is ready
to continue a sustained bombing campaign in
Yugoslavia, Defense Secretary William Cohen said
today, but it could end "at any time" if Yug&lt;islav Presi-"
dent Slobodan "Milosevic returns to the peace table.
Cohen said all NATO planes had returned safely from
the first day of strikes, and defense officials discounted
reiXJrts that Yugoslavia's air defenses had hit a U.S. warplane.
"There will be more to follow, unless Mr. Milosevic
chooses peace," Cohen told Associated Press Radio in
an interview today. "This is going to be a long effort."
.One U.S. Air Force F-15 fighter jet, spewing smoke,
made an emergency landing today in Bosnia-Herzegovina; next door to Yugoslavia. Army Col. Richard
Bridges, a Pentagon ·spokesman, said the plane was not
damaged by Yugoslav air defenses and bad been flying a
routine deny-flight mission over Bosnia when it devel-.
oped a problem with its hydraulic pump and made an
emergency landing today.
Nebojsa Vujovic, charges d'affaires for the Yugoslav
Embassy in Washington, said the allied strikes had
caused no serious damage to Yugoslavia's military. "But
we have civilian casualties," he said on NBC's "Today"
show, with 10 dead and more than 60 wounded.
Cohen said those reports were unconfirmed and questioned the reliability of information out of Yugoslavia.
He added, though, that civilian casualties were difficult
to avoid.

Strickland speaks on Kosovo attack
Congressman Ted Strickland released today that, while any decision to
use military force is difficult, he believes that AmericA's involvement in
Kosovo is necessary at this critical juncture.
\
" Serbian President Milosovic has ordered his troops to conduct system!l,tic rape, torture and murder, while instituting a campaign of ethnic
cleansing throughout the former Yugoslavia and Kosovo." Stickland said,
"These actions must be met with forceful resolve."
Congressman Strickland added Jhat the Unite\!. States, in conjunction
with its allies, has led exhaustive talks in an effort to resolve this situation
without military action. "President Milosovic soundly rejected the results
of those talks, and he bears the responsibility for bringing about NATO's
actions."

Doctor settles $10 million lawsuit
ov'r botched l.nfant circumcision
MEDINA (AP) - A suburban Cleveland doctor has settled a $10 million lawsuit over a botched circum9ision that severed the tip of an infant's
penis.
.
The lawsuit was settled Wednesday as the case against Dr. Martha 'L,
Myers of Medina and Medina General Hospital was about to go to trial,
according to Medina County Common Pleas Court Judge James L. Kimbler.
The terms of the settlement with Fred and Kristen Carque of Medina, the
parents of Ian Carque, were not disclosed.
Myers and hospital administrators could nol be reached for comment.
Messages were left with the doctor's answering service and the offiee of the
hospital president early today before regular business hours.
The Carque family attorney, William Beyer, said the issue was never
money but the opportunity for the parents to air their grief and to hold the
doctor accountable.
"If this was your son and I told you I'd give you $10 million for this to
happen to him, you wouldn't take it," Beyer said.
lan, now 4 years old, was two days old qn Sept. 23, 1994, when Myers
amputated the tip of his penis during the procedure, according to the lawsuit. Circumcisision, which is often performed for religious or hygienic reasons, involves the removal of the foreskin from the head of the penis.
Beyer said the impact of the injury would not be known for years. The
amputated tissue. which was kept in a saline solution on ice, was reattached
after the boy was rushed to Children's Hospital Medical Center of Akron.
Beyer said ian's doctors have not been able to determine whether he will
suffer sexual dysfunction or loss of sensation.
The hospital was sued because Mycrs had no privileges to perform the
surgery, yet she had performed at least three circumcisions before the Carque procedure.

tures at Serb military bases and ammunition storage
sites. ·
Cohen said NATO forces would continue hitting the
Yugoslav military until M'ilosevic relents in a campaign
of repression and violence against the majority ethnic
Albanian people of Kosovo.
.
U.S. warplanes encountered little in the way of
ground fire .and, in the initial waves, no launchings of
surface-to-air missiles. But Yugoslav fighters took to·the
air and engaged NATO planes in air-to-air combat, com.
ing out losers in the first engagements. Cohen said at
least two Yugoslav MiG fighters were shot down by
NATO planes.
On Capitol Hill, the Republican-controlled Congress
followed a long-established pattern: s.upport for the
troops in the field despite skepticism, at best, toward the
Clinton admini~tration policy.
·
The House Armed Services Committee chairman~
Rep. Floyd Spence, R-S.C., expressed "deep reservations about the direction of our policy in Kosovo"
although "no reservations whatsoever" about support. ing the troops .
Clinton said he was "convinced that the dangers of
acting are far outweighed by the dangers of not acting."
He dwelt mainly on what he said would be the hazards of not acting: greater repression· by the Yugoslav
government against the ethnic Albanian minority in
Kosovo, a widening conflict as refugees streamed into
unstable neighboring countries, and the possibility of a
complete loss of Western credibility if threats made by
NATO were not carried out.

.Meigs County chamber officers
recall group's accomplishments
By JIM FREEMAN
Santlnel N-• Staff
As part of Chamber of Commerce Month in Ohio,
officers of the Meigs County Chamber of Commerce
Wednesday recalled the groups accomplishments during
its I 0 years of existence.
Former chamber President Paul Reed recalled the
group was formed in part lhrough the efforts of Bruce
Reed and the late Dave Baker.
They envi~oned a county-wide chamber of com·
merce, merging the Pomeroy and Middleport chambers
of commerce into one group. Directors were appointed
representing each village and township.
That goal of a true county,wide chamber has not
changed, Reed said. The chamber still seeks to represent
all a~as of the county.
The group focused on promoting economic development in the county and a part-time economic development director,
Shields, was hired. Not long after,
the first full-time economic development director, Elizabeth Schaad, was hired.
The group's first major effort was to obtain a new
state prison at a site near Salem Center.
"We were runnin"g neck and neck with Noble County,
but were denied due to lack of highways," Reed
observed.
The next economic . development director, Paula
Thacker, helped promote the · installation of flue gas ·
scrubbers at the General Gavin Plant in Cheshire.
The plant's owner, American Electric Power, due to a
then-new requirement to reduce the emission of sulfur
dioxide at the plant, was weighing the installation. of
scrubbers against shipping in low-sulfur coal- which ·
would force the closing of its Meigs Mines. The utility
eventually decided in favor of scrubbers, saving the jobs
of many coal miners at the plant.
The next director, Julia Houdashelt, was instrumental
in implementing the Rural Enterprise Zone and in getting AEP's Great Bend site made available for economic development. In addition, Houdashelt worked to find
an occupant for the Big Wheel department store, now
' the Pamilla store, was instrumental in reorganizing the
Meigs County Community Improvement Corporation,
· and in drawing up a strategic plan for Meigs County.
Ron McDade, the next economic development director, worked with the University of Rio Grande/Rio
Grande Community College, Holzer Clinic and the
Meigs County Depar1ment of Human Services to establish the University of Rio Grande Meigs Center in the
former Holzer Middleport Clinic. .

ing to locate industry to settle into .the industrial site at
Tuppers Plains and is assisting in efforts to complete the
U.S."-Route 33 corridor through Meigs County - currently the top item on the chamber's agenda.
Varnadoe noted that over the years the chamber has
helped bring approximately $114 million into the county in the form of highway and other funds.
Other chamber of commerce activities include busi·
ness listings, relocation packets, resource handbooks .
and demographic information - all provided free of
charge.
In ·1995, the chamber inherited the promotion of
lourism from the former park district. The tourism
office, undel'•the direction of Karin Johnson, has published four brochures. In addition, the Meigs County
