"Shawna" was not e<pected to survive, but she did. After several months in a coma, and two years in a rehabili tation hospital, she is home with us. Shawna is a quadriplegic and dependent on a ve ntilator, but she is otherwi se the same person she always was. My husband , our son and I have man aged to create a life fo r her. My concern is my husband's famil y. They have completely aband oned us since Shawna's acc ident. They say it is "too hard" for them w be around her and see her "like that," and have not been in contact with us fo r three years, even though they live less than an hour away. It makes me angry to see my hu sband and children treated so shabbily. My hu sband needs their support , and my children have lost their grandpare nts, aunts, uncles and cousin s. I know I ca nn ot change these people, but please tell others who experience thi s type of tragedy to support those in need. It means so much. It is not easy to ex plain to Shawna wh y these famil y members no longer care about her.

We don't do for others like we use to." It's not unusual for King to pay for fuel oil for his customers or bring food to them if they are in need. He becomes emotional when he talks about the needs of people, yet admits he has his detractors. "I don't want anything for what 1 do. But, 1 had a lady ask me if 1was doing this for tlie right reasons. 1 thought about it and prayed about it. 1 finally told her, God didn't tell me to do all this, but He sure didn't !•II me to stop."

My wife Karel says I'm in my third childhood, but .1 love doing this. She and my daughter Kelliann and her husband C.J. Harmon and , my grandson Anthony help me out and keep me going." King's hopes are that anyone who wants to have a nice meal on Thanksgiving can. "I see poverty everyday on my routes. It's nothing for you and me to buy a pizza if we want one, but for some people it's not possible. So, if just one person eomes and enjoys this, it 'll be worthwhile." But King won't be there lo watch the hundreds of people benefit from this efforts. He 'II be · working Thanksgiving, just as he will Christmas.

The Chester/Shade Historical · Association continues to restore the building, constructed in 1823, using funds largely generated from their own fundraisingefforts. In the past several years, the group of volunteers have transformed the building from a ramshackle shell into a showplace for local history. · Private donors funded the installation of new architecturally accurate windows, and the association, which has received some financial assislance from the counly commissioners and grant programs, has seen to the replacement of the building's roof, the repainting of the brick work on the exterior, replastering the walls on the downstaitS interior, and the construction of a new staircase. That staircase, constructed of a variety of native hardwoods, was built by Chester resident Delmar Baum, and will now be refinished and fitted with a new handrail . In addition, a sparkling new oak hardwood floor has been installed and finished on both the first and second floors of the building, and striking new light fixtures, made of tin, have been installed The fixtures feature a candle motif, and were handmade and handdelivered to the site by a Dayton-area tinsmith. A new heating and air conditioning system has also been installed. According to Pat Holter of the Chester/Shade Historical Association, another S20•000 worth of restoration and renovation work is planned, including the installation of 8 new security system, interior finishing (baseboards, stairway finishing, 8 fireproof door for the HVAC system) and plaster work on the second floor.

They said the dip in unqnploy ment, even though it wasn 't accompanied by higher wage demands. still will keep the central bank worried about rising inflation down the road. A key gauge of inflation pressures -average hourly earnings - grew by a tiny 0.1 percent to $13.37 in October, indicating that the tight labor market thus far isn ' t triggering wage inflation. But Merrill Lynch's chief economist Bruce Steinberg said he believed the unemployment report depicted an economy growing too fast for the Fed 's comfort and "pretty much guarantees that the Fed will tighten " in November. Wages had jumped by a worrisome 0.5 percent in September, but many analysts blamed that increase on statistical distonions caused by Hurricane Floyd, which hit the East Coast that month and shortened the workweek for many. Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan and his colleagues meet Nov. 16 ro decide whether a third interest rate is needed this year to keep inflation at bay. Robert McTeer, one of1he policymakers who will take part in that decision , said during a speech in El By JEANNINE AVERSA AISoclated PreiS Writer WASHINGTON- The nation's unemployment rate fell to a threedecade low of 4.1 percent in October - with only modest wage inflation - in a showing made to order for nervous investors. Wall Street rallied on the news. The new jobless rate, down from 4.2 percent in September, ~ontinued the outstanding performance of the job market. Strong economic growth has pushed unemployment down to levels most working Americans have not experienced since they took their first jobs. Unemployment hasn 't been lower si'nce it stood at 3.9 percent in January 1970, the Labor Department said Friday. Wall Street was buoyed by the smaller-than-expected rise in wages and a moderate gain of 310,000 new payroll jobs. The Dow Jones industrial average closed up 64.84 at 10,704.48. An early 193-point gain briefly put the Dow back within 500 points of the record close of II ,326.04 set on Aug . 26. The Nasdaq composite index set its sixth consecutive record.

Mergers help and hurt search for new drugs By PHIL GALEWITZ AP Bualness Writer NEW YORK __:_ With pharmaceutical companies pursuing mergers to reduce costs and boost profits, some fear the new gargantuan combinations will stop developing drugs that are important but have little sales potentia[ Othetnay that research is getting so expensive, drug companies have no choice but to merge with rivals. "Size confers different sets of advantages and disadvantages'," said Joseph Zammit-Lucia, chief executive of Cambridge Pharma Consultancy of Cambridge, Mass. The debate over whether drug mergers are good ·or bad for consumers is arising anew as Pfizer Inc . tries to break up Warner-Lambert Co.'s planned merger with American Home Products Corp. The fight is the biggest hostile takeover battle in the history of the drug industry and comes after several other mergers this year. Pfizer launched a hostile counterbid for Warner-Lambert on Thursday, hours after Warner-Lambert and American Home said they would merge. Pfizer's shares fell for a second day Friday, cutting the value of its offer from an original price of $82:4 billion Clown to $74 billion. The value of the American HomeWarner-Lambert combination stood . at $70 billion Friday because AmerIcan Home's shares remained stable. Executives from all three drugmakers said they need to merge to keep up with the rising cost of finding new drugs. New drugs are the lifeblood of every major drugmaker, helping them meet Wall Street's expectations for ever-higher profits. Companies say increased regulatory scrutiny has also unnPrt thPir costs as have competitive pressures that r~quire them to spend millions on marketi~g. Bigger companies can devote more money to research and have a bigger cushion in case too many drugs fail during research. But Dr. Beth Maggio, president of Pharmaceutical Consultants Inc . of Leawood, Kan., said when drug companics merge, they often cut research projects to save money. "They· tend to develop the drugs that are at the top of each'company's pipeline and neglect the second- and third-generation drugs that may turn out to be imponant advances," she said. That could prevent some medicines from ever getting· on the market. For instance, some of today's drugs are found through serendipity. Pfizer found the impotence drug Viagra while developing a pill for angina. Fewer research projec ts cou\d mean fewer chances to stumble onto new cures, Maggio said. Dr. Sidney Wolfe . director of Publie Citizen's Health Resea rch Group in Washington, said he worries that if : · drug companies get too big. they will have undue inllucncc with governrncnt regulators, allowing urugs of questionable safety to get ont o the market. In addition. the cost savings toutcd by drug companies engaged in mergers usually benefit only their shareholders. Wolfe saod. Lebanon Township Voters thanks! Thanks! ftanks!.

Clinton working political network on behalf of Gore By CHRIS MATTHEWS WASHINGTON - Unlit cigar clenched in his jaw, Bill Clinton is working his national political machine for At Gore. Labor. Teachers. Environmentalists. Gays. Seniors. All the usual suspects of Democratic party power are being dragooned into the great, all-out war for 2000. . . . The man calling these regiments into battle is a commander-in-chief who, like Ronald Reagan before him, won the White House twice in his own name and yearns for a valedictory victory by his hand-picked successor. William . Jefferson Clinton does not wish to enter 21st-century history books as a seatwarmer between two presidents named George Qush. To achieve the victory and avoid the humiliation, the man in the Oval Office is running a quiet, relentless campaign to galvanize' the Democratic party's mostloyallegions into a rabid fighting·force for Vice President Gore. He's c ncrgi zi n~e nvironmentalists with his decision to save 40 million acres of national forest from the developers. He's lead ing labor's fight for a higher minimum wage. while taking the edge off NAFTA by talking up a "human face" on economic globalization. He's pushing Congress for those 100,000 new teachers. He's reminding gays and lesbians of the frustrated fight for their open ser· vice in the American military. He·, pushing for the government to buy free prescription drugs for seniors wh ile offering no painful prescriptions for either reforming Medicare or protecting the solvency of Social Security as the Baby Boom generation heads toward 65. .. w,, ought to change but we ought to build on what we' ve done to reach for the stars." Clinton said recently, "not take a U-turn and get us back to the same troubl e we were in in 1992." ·· In each case. he's energ izing a unit of the Democratic army, ginning up its fighting spirit, reminding his old ally of the stakes. Rather than bragging about past accomplishments, he 's hyping what still needs to be done in the future. and what promises to get· done if the White House is kept in activist Democratic hands. In this new role as old-style political boss, Clinton can maximize his tmmcnsc popularity among the Democratic and liberal loyalists without alerting those independents and independent-minded Democrats who want a clear break from the Clinton-Gore era. By working the usual suspects he avoids. energizing those who still find Clinton himself somewhat suspect.

Today in history By The Associated Press Today is Sunday, Nov. 7, the 311th day of 1999. There are 54 days left in the year. Today 's Highlight in History: On Nov. 7, f917 , Russian forces led by Vladimir Ilyich Lenin overthrew the provisional government of Alexander Kerensky in the Bolshevik Revolution. On this date: In 1893, the state of Colarado granted its women the right to vote. Jn 1916. Jeannette Rankin, a Montana Republican, became the first woman elected to Congress. In 1929, the Museum of Modem Art opened in New York City. In 1940. the middle seetion of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington state collapsed during a windstorm. · In 1944, President Roosevelt won an unprei:edented fourth term, defeating Thomas E. Dewey. In 1962, Richard M. Nixon, who lost California's gubernatorial race, held what he called his "'last press conference," telling reporters, "You won't have Nixon to kick around anymore.". In 1962, former first lady Eleanor Roosevelt died in New York City at age 78. In 1967, Carl Stokes of Cleveland, Ohio, was elected the first black mayor of a major city. In 1972, President Nixon was re-elected in a landsli.de over Democrat George McGovern. In 1973, Congress over.rode President Nixon's veto of the War Powers Act. which limits a chief executive's power to wage war without congressiot1at approval. ' Ten years ago: Virginia's L. Douglas Wilder became the nation's first black elected governor: David N. Dinkins was elected New York City's first black mayor. Richard Ramirez, convicted of California's .. Night Stalker" killings , was sentenced to death. Ftve years ago: On the eve of Election Day, President Clinton concluded an eight-day campaign odyssey with an impassioned plea for embattled Democrats, say ing, "We'll go forward , we don' t want to go back," even as he braced for expected Republican gains in the House and Senate. One year ago:.77-year·old John Glenn returned to Earth aboard the space shullle Discovery, visibly weak but elated. after a nine-day mission. Today's Birthdays: Evangelist Billy Graham is 81.

What would really blow the mind of zealots is that we are already in the new millennium. Since our calendar counts the years from Jesus' birth, biblical scholars are agreed that our. calendar is at least four years off. The birth of Jesus occurred somewhere between 4 and 7 B.C. So all the hype and fear about entering the new millennium is at least four years late. To further secularize America a move is being made to change the reference of B.C. (before Christ) and A.D., Anno Domini (the Year of Our Lord) to some more benign usage. I guess we could SIQ' this is a sign of the times. Believing everything that fills the air without serious question or giving it much thought creates a bad situation for a representative democracy.

MEARS AP Special Correapondent . WASHINGTON _ Don't get mad, the saying goes, get even. Sen. John McCain has been known to do both. Now his temper is becoming a topic in the Republican presidential campaign. McCain is not the first sometimes angry man to run for the White House. Or to get there. At this point, McCain's temper can hardly be called an issue, and it isn't likely to become one unless there is an outburst of anger in the glare of the campaign. McCain certainly knows that. For evidence, there's the case of Sen. Edmund S. Muskie, who~e fierce temper erupted in the 1972 New Hampshire campaign, when he either,cried or, ash~ said, "choked up over my anger" in denouncing a column critical of his wife. It was a landmark episode in his fall from Democratic leader to loser. McCain is trying to deflect temper talk by casting him self as the reformer, angered at waste and injuslice. It fits a candidate running against the system in which he serves, a tac· tic that irks, even angers, Senate colwhich is not the center of anything because everything else is swallowed up leagues anlJ' campaign rivals . "Sen. by it." - Paul TIIIich, American theologian (1886-1965). McCain really offended most of us," said Sen. Orrin Hatch, who is both. "In his '2;,eal to talk straight, he's talked rotten."

Wolf has been telling Gore that the core of his problems with the electorate is his close association with the scandal-ridden "Good Father" Clin· ton, and she has been in the forefront of those urging Gore to distance himself from the pres ident.

(AP) - Ohio State wanted revenge. Instead, the Buckeyes got Clobbered and may have cost themselves a shot at a New Year's Day bowl game. Bill Burke passed for .l74 yards and two touchdowns as No. 19 Michigan State rolled to a 23-7 victory over the 20th-ranked Buckeyes. The Buckeyes (6-4, 3-3 Big Ten) had been pointing to this game for almost a year, since their hopes for the 1998 national championship were dashed by a 28-24 upset in Columbus last season. But they were completely outplayed by Michigan State (7-3, 4-2) which used an off week to get over a two· game losing streak. · The Sp11_rtans' defense, tops in the Big Ten against the run, held Ohio State to zero yards rushing and just four first downs. The Buckeyes finished with 79 yards, all in the air on 8-of-23 passing with one interception. . Burke completed 15-of-24, including a 17-yard touchdown to Plaxico l,Jurress and a !-yard scoring flip to Chris Baker. Ohio State's only score came on a 4-yard touchilown toss from Steve Bellisari to Michael Wiley following a ,third-qljaJ:Ier. interception.

Burke had completions of 25 and 17 yards before hitting Burress with a 17 -yard touchdown pass with 6:43 left in the half.

Pomeroy' is a quaint hamlet in the hills of Southeast Ohio on the bank of a bend in Ohio River. WhiH' the town may be only a stone's throw from the site of the only Civil War battle to take place on Ohio soil, it is a more prodigious heave from Cincinnati, Columbus and the other major media centers where most of those who vote for the Mr. Football award are located. Notwithstanding his lack of exposure, Roush has certainly put up statistics worthy ·o f evening news highlights and Mr. Football consideration . In 1998, Roush ranked in the top 10 in the state in scoring with 28 TDs and in the top 15 in rushing with I ,889 yards. At his current pace , Roush will· almost certainly better those numbers this year. Opposing coaches who have stacked their defenses· against Roush also know that he is the real deal. "Justin is the best back we faced all year," said John Gilbert, defensive coordinator for perennial state power Newark Catholic . "Going into the game we knew we had to wrap him up and go through the whistle and that if we did not, he would break tackles." The Green Wave defenders heeded Gilbert's words in a 20-6 win over Roush's Marauders, but Roush still struck for 178 yards.· Meigs' Head Coach Mike Chancey echoed ·Gilbert's comments and said Roush give a great effort on every play. "I think his biggest . strength is his determl- · nation," Chancey said. "He has great field vision and really he r.uns hard, He wants tlie ball and he ROUSH would carry it on every play if you would give it to him ." While Roush's on -field achievements have been remarkable, those exploits pale in com· pa \~~,9n to his off-the-field character, accord• ng to Chancey. "If you had a son , you would want him to . be like Justin, not on the football field , but just as a person," Chancey said. With that kind of character to accompany · his eye-popping statistics, Roush fits right in with the other most-deserving candidates: · Colby Byrolll of Dover, Luke Clemens of Bellbrook, Marcus Sanders of Ravenna, and · Nate Walker of Toronto, who , lik e Roush, are running backs beating a path to the end zon~s in locales that are off the beaten path. Now if the Mr. Football voters could jus! : . find those back roads . .

Art Modell wi ll watch on TV in comfort and safety. Brian Billick and the Baltimore .Ravens won 't be so lucky. They'll experience the wrath of 75,000 Cleveland Brow ns fans who have been wailing four years for revenge against Modell. Expletives will rain down upon the Ravens from the stands of the new Cleveland Browns Stadium the way that dog bones used to ny out of the Dawg Pound in the old place. Billick will probably hear some of the choicest insults.

We just moved three years ago. so this is the same generation of Cieveland fans. " It's still fresh in their minds. I was involved in the move. It was unbelievable how they reacted, and I can only imagi ne the reaction we ' ll get when we go there." Modell, who knows beller than to return to the city he once call ed home, chose not lo talk about his team's visit to Cleveland. He did the same thing i~ September when the Browns ( 1-7) wenlto Baltimore and were beaten 1710 by the Ravens (2-5). : But while Modell abided by his self-imposed gag order. Billick spoke Hard to believe, but Billick's comments have raised the slakes. "If there was any additional room to accenllhe intensity of this game, it's been eliminated by coach Billick," Browns pres ident Carme n Policy said. The. NFL is reviewing Billick's remarks and contemplating a !ine. The Browns and their fans have already made their judgment. "That's just not right," defensive back Marlon Forbes said . Offensive tackle Lomas Brown said Billick was "trying to play the psy· che game." " It might be smart for his team," Brow n sai d. " h might be something his team needs." Policy was initially infuriated by the remarks "because of the impact that . I saw them having on tile NFL. the integrity of game, our offi ciating conce pt.

" · Springs, who made the Pro Bowl in hi s second season last year, has II career interceptions, two for touchdowns. After helping Seallle hand the Packers only their second loss in 35 home games, he was selected the AFC Defensive Player of the Week. Springs, who left Ohio Slate after hi s junior year, might be the most confident player on the Seahawks. . In the second quarter, he dropped Favre's pass on the sidelines that had touchdqwn wrillen all over it. " I was thinking , 'I could have had three (interceptions),' " he said. " I probably would have brought that on""to the house, too." · Of his touchdown return on the blocked fi eld goal, he said , "The ball came straight to me. Once I got it, lknew what to do with it." Of his two interceptions, he added, "I was just fortunate Brell happened to throw me a couple of balls." And of the positive ani tude he takes onto the field, he said, "You need that type of confidence playing corner." . After their !irsl Monday night appearance since 1992, the Seahawk s might be catching the Bengals at the right lime. Cincinnati is banged up and demoralized. Starting quarterback Akili Smith, the Bengals' lop draft choice , is sidelined with a sprained ri ght big toe he suffered in Cincinnati's worst loss of the season, 41 -10 against Jacksonville at home. Only Jeff Blake's touchdown pass as lime ran oul prevented the Bengals' most' lopsided loss in fran chise hi story. Blake, who lost his starting joli after the Bengals gol off to an 0-4 start, is back. When Smith is healthy in a few weeks, Bl ake will most likely become lhe,backup again. Cincinnati's secondary, the learn 's main weakness, is really hurling. Cornerbacks Roosevelt Blackmon (ankle) and Artrell Hawkins (bruised shoulder/sprained ankle) arc out and safety Greg Myers is questionable with a looking to stop running game PITISBURGH (AP)- With the Steelers' passing attack inconsistent at best, Jerome Bettis knows he will draw a crowd Sunday in San Francisco and he's not thinking about the fans al 3Com Park. · Like other teams Pittsburgh has seen in recent weeks, Bettis expects San Francisco's defense to gang up on the Steelers' running game and force Kardell Stewart to prove he can beat the 49ers through the air. . "Until we can prove that we can throw the ball consistently, they're going to load up on us," Bettis said after practice Friday. "It's really up to us. If we can show that we can·throw the football~ they'll back up. Until then, they won't." Bellis has rushed for 447 yards going into the season's halfway point, with the Steelers posting a 4-3 iecord. At his current pace, Bettis would only just break 1,000 yards by s~ason's end. He has broken 100 yards only once this season, with Ill against Cincinnati on Oct. 17. In four games, be has finished with less than 60 yards - a testament to the defensive schemes adopted,by many of the Steelers' opponents because . Stewart and' his receivers have been inconsistent. Teams key on Bellis, loading the line with eight defenders, outnumbering offensive blockers. It's nothing new, Bettis said. ' "I've been in the situation before," Bettis said. "When I was with the Rams, the passing game wasn't that great. I've seen eight-man fronts my whole career, so this is something I've gotten used lo. "It's really a question of how bad you want it," he said. "I always know that the eighth defender is my guy, so I know if I can beat him, we've got a . chance. That's the attitude I take (award the eight-man front. I think it will be a whole lot easier when Kordell starts throwing down the field." Bettis will have lo adjust to one difference in Sunday's game: It will be played on grass. · Olds 88 L.S. 118383, AT, AC, Tilt, Cruise, PW.

Bettis says turf may be harder lo run on - but when you go down, it's softer. "You have to be careful making your cuts early .on if you're not used lo it,'' Bettis said. "Grass is going to give a lot more than turf will. It shouldn' t make thai much of a difference, but we're a turf team, and you'll probably see a few guys slip. Turf is a faster track, and you make quicker cuts." For the second qmsecutive game, Bettis will be without one of his best offensive linemen. Center Dennonni Dawson was placed on the inactive list Friday because he's still bothered by a hamstring injury·sustained Oct. 17. Dawson, who had played in 170 consecutive gaines, had hoped last week's open date would have given him sufficient time lo recover. "ll ·helped, but I'm not where I want to be," Dawson said.

(AP) - Penn State's national championship hopes were ttpped over by Minnesota. . The Gophers completed a tipped pass on fourth-and-16 with I :22 left, setting up Dan Nystrom's 32-yard field goal as time ran out to beat the No. 2 Nittany Lions 24-23 Saturday. Billy Cockerham's pass bounced off receiver Ron Johnson's hands and was scooped up by diving teammate Arland Bruce at the 13-yard line. Three plays later, Nystrom split the uprights to spoil Joe Paterno's bid for a third national title. ;. · The Gophers (6-3, 3~3 Big Ten) jumped for joy as as the stunned players from Penn Slate (9-1, 5-1) walked off the field in Paterno's 400th game as head coach. The Gophers' sixth win clinched their first winning season since 1990 and made them eligible for a bowl for the first time since 1986. It was Minnesota's first win ever Penn State in five tries, and the Gophers' first victo- ry over a Top 5 team since beating No.2 Michigan 20-17 in 1986. The Gophers beat a Top 25 team for the first time since upsetting No. 23 Syracuse 35-33 in 1996. They had been close all season, however, losing, I~ Wisconsin, Ohio State and Purdue by a combined II points. The Gophers had scared an unbeaten Penn State team the last time they visited Beaver Stadium, losing 16-15 after blowing a 12-point lead. Thomas Hamner rushed 38 times for 96 yards, and Cockerham was 14of-24 for 277 yards and two TDs. Minnesota's game-winning drive started at the 20 with I :50 left. First, C.:x;kerham connected with Johnson on a 46-yarder to Penn Stllle's 34-yard line. After LaVar Arrington's sack and two incomplete passes made it fourth-and-16, the Gophers completed the miracle pass to keep the drive alive. Minnesota had already made plenty ofbig pla:r:s to stay close. With his team trailing 17-9 in the third quarter, Cockerham hit Alex Hass for a 49-yard gain to set up a 3-yard TD. Then he threw a 49-yard touchdown pass to Hamner, who slipped behind the defense and was wide open. .ThAt ~tilie .oopheis wad 21-2~:_ .e\ien tlioughthey had missed two :· 2·pomt convemons. ;, ' .· ; MinJ19sota's defensive fron,t. best in the Big Ten in pass defense, har~sed • Penn State quarterbacks Kevm Thompson and Rashard Casey.

Tom Brady passed for I85 yards and three touchdowns and Anthony Thomas ran for 172 yards and two scores as No. 16 Michigan, which struggled against unranked teams the past two weeks. beat Northwestern 37-3 Saturday. The Wolverines (7-2, 4-2 Big Ten) surrendered 100 points in its previous three games, but didn't allow Northwestern (3-6. 1-5) to score until it was 34-0 in the third quarter. The Wolverines, who had risen to No. 3 before losing to Michigan State las! month, ap~d to be in their easiest stretch of the season, playing three unranked teams. But Illinois scored four fourth-quarter touchdowns to beat the Wolverines and Michigan nearly lost to Indiana after squardering a 17-point lead. But Northwestern, which has lost five of its last six games and 13 of its last 14 Big Ten games, never posed a challenge. The Wolverines had 451 yards; Northwestern 200. Brady con~ected with David Terrell on a 26-yard touchdown in the ftrst quarter and with a diving DiAIIo Johnson in the end zone for a 45-yard score in the second quarter to put Michigan ahead 13-0. Thomas scored on a 60-yard run, breaking one tackle and taking advantage of an open-field block by receiver Marquise Walker. Thomas' !-yard TD dive was set up by a i 21 -yard catch by Johnson, who spun away from one tackler and ducked under another before being tackled on the !yard line. . Northwestern's lone score came on a 37-yard field goal by Tim Long with 4:06 left in the third quarter. The Wildcats had moved the ball to the Michigan 12-yard line following runs of 24 and 2 yards by Damien Anderson, but Zak Kustok was sacked for a loss of 10 and nearly sacked on the next play and the Wildcats had to settle for the field goal. Northwestern advanced to the Michigan 30 in the second quarter, but was penalized 15 yards for a late hit, Kustok fumbled on lhe next play for a 5-yard loss then fell taking the ne>l snap for a 5-yard loss. Anderson, who was averaging 107 yards rushing a game, was held to 74 yards on 21 carries. Kustok, under heavy pressure throughout, was 8-of-21 passing for 51 yards with one interception. He also has 12 carries for 41 yards. Thomas, who had a career-best 197 yards against Indiana, passed the 1,000-yard mark with a 26-yard run early in the third quarter that led to Brady's 11-yard TD pass to Bennie Joppru. The two rushing touchdowns gave Thomas 34 for ms career, tying Rick Leach for second place on Michigan's all-time list That leaves the junior 13 behind school recordholder Tyrone Wheatley. Brandon Kornblue kicked a 26-yard field goal for the Wolverines with 33 seconds left in the game.

To ensure the facility - and the people working there for that matter- survives the encounter with the incredibly powerful beasts, all of the hardware including the chutes, head gates and crash gates are specially built for bison. A series of heavy-duty pens with ratcheting gates steadily guide the bison into two consecutive chutes. The animals are weighed in the first chute and vaccinat<d in the second chute.

Like huge birds, the buffalo are lured into the corrals with bread. "You don't chase them," Patrick explained. ''They won't herd. You have to entice them with bread or something." For the next few months, the animals will not come close to the corrals, he said. Veterinarian Steve Abfall of The was on hand Tuesday vaccinating the animals. He has worked with the Lawsons' bison for about four years now and said he enjoys working with the buffalo because they are different from the cows and horses most veterinarians see. Patrick Lawson said he first became interested in bison after a business associate showed him his bison bull. He was impressed with the animal's size and strength - and decided he wanted one. He said his father checked around and determined there was a market for bison meat and other products. The father-son team bought their first animals in I 996, starting with two calves, then seven bred cows and a herd sire. Over the last several years the herd has expanded to its current size, with most of the animals born on the farm . The main bison product is meat.

Bj TAMMY WEBBER A!sociated Press Writer :cHICAGO (AP) Once thought to be lost forever, a l,(lOO-year-old parchment manuscript containing the works of Archimedes is being preserved an:d studied for insights into one of· the greatest minds of the ancient world . The book; which scholars believe was copied in the lOth century by a scribe from A<chimedes ' original scrolls, was bo)lght anonymously at auction for $2 million last year. :11 is being displayed at the Field Museum in Chicago until Jan. 3. when it will be returned to the Walters Art Gallery in Baltimore for restoration. The manuscript is the only copy in the original Greek of Archimedes' theory of flotation of bodies. The text and diagrams also detail his mathematical treatises and mechanical. theorems I and contain the roots of modern calculus and gravitational theory . "What this does is broaden the base of our understanding of the mainstream of Western mathe matical historical tradition ," said William Noel, the gallery's curator. "We can understand the tradition of thought." Archimedes, born in Sicily in 287 B.C., is credited with discovering the principle of water displacement while sitting in his bath. He also invented the pulley and a planetarium that demonstrated the movement of the stars. About 200 years after the book was written, the text and diagrams were erased by scraping the skin, and the leaves were cut and reused in a smaller book of Christian prayers . New words were written across the original text, which still shows up faintly. The book disappeared around I9i2-24 from a monastery in Constantinople. It resurfaced in the possession of a French family in the 1930s and was sold by the fal)lily last year. The manu script survived a fire , which parched the edges. and has also been damaged by mold. The manuscript is called the Palimpsest. Archimedes Palimpsest is writing material that has been re-used by erasing earlier writing. Restoration is expected to last four or five years.

Lun-Lun and Yang-Yang, both 2, will be quarantined until Nov. 20, when they go on display at Zoo .Atlanta in a new, $7 million habitat. They will stay in Atlanta for I0 years as pan of a project to learn why the endangered animals show little interest in mating while in captivity. With their arrival, the U.S. panda population is now six. The National Zoo in Washington has one, and the San Diego Zoo has three, including a cub born Aug. 21. When the pandas arrived at the zoo, they were in no hurry to move into their new home.

Zoo Atlanta had been trying to get pandas for 12 years. The pandas began their journey at the Panda Breeding Center in China's Sichuan province. After a long night to Beijing, they had to wait in their crates 12 hours before beginning the 17-hour tlight to Atlanta on the "Panda Express," a Boeing 767 owned by UPS. Since the pandas like a cool clim~te, the UPS plane and delivery trucks were chilled to about 55 degrees. Zoo Atlanta veterinarian Dr. Rita McManamon, who accompanied the pandas with two Chinese vets, said the animals seemed to enjoy the trip. "They both ate a lot and slept a lot, and basically relaxed, " she said. "! didn't see any signs of any emolional distress. In lact, they appeared to be natural travelers."

If you ask a farmer why that desire exists,' you'll get many different answers. One of the more practical responses is that by gaining publie understanding, you're gaining public suppon. In a democracy where farmers only make up 2 percent of the population, it makes good political sense to have non-farmers that are know!edgeable about the issues surrounding the production of food and fiber. A! roadblock to achieving that ·awareness is the fact that agriculture, and specifically, federal agricultural policy, is anything but simple. Rocket science is less complicated. Brain surgery isn't as. complex. You'd spend less time grasping quant?m physics than mastenng marketing orders. Some of the confusing aspects of ag policy jumped up io bite fanners recently when the president signed legislation that provides financial assistance to producers who are fac, ing devastatingly low commodity poces. The problem came in the fonn of newspaper editorials that questioned why farmers should be getting this "federal handout." · These editorials suggested that it shou'ld be the frej: market and not the government that decides who stays in ·fanning and who heads to town for a. be located downtown as usual."

Dear Ed1tor: Your paper asserted that the 1996 Freedom to Farm Act is a failure. I'm afraid your conclusions were inaccu~ate because your analysis was mcomplete. You co';ectly pointed out that under the .96 Farm Bill, fu:m_ers agreed to g1ve up federal subs1d1es. However, you missed a vital aspects of agreements. They're two-sided. Congress and. farmers negotiated a deal that prov1ded less federal asmlance in return for less federal interference. But Washington has failed to keep their end of the bargrun.

There is still time to prepare the lawn for winter using fertilizer ;!nd lime. An application of a high ni1rogen fenilizcr (23-3-3) will initiate. an increase in the grass root system and allow it to start growing earlier in the spring, thus crowding out potential weed growth. Have you checked your lawn's soil acidity level? If your lawn is too acidic (below pH 6.0) plant nutrients • are . n(!t, ~vaija_l!le_ to _th~ . grass and , ,l!Jbibir ~! "groWth: Spreading lime at tlKl rate of two tons per acre or I00 pounds per one thousand square feet will improve most lawns. Soil tests should be taken which would further identify basic nutrient deficiencies. Make sure to remove leaves from the la>¥n. Matted leaves may smother out a lawn by cutting off necessary light to blades of grass. The grass plant's ability to produce food through photosynthesis slows down in late fall, but still occurs during sunny days above freezing. Matted leaves also create ideal conditions for -fungal and bacteria diseases to grow. Most grass root and stem rots need long periods oftime where damp and dark areas exist, like under matted leaves. So, continue to rake up the leaves that blow into your yard and onto your lawn. D Sunday, November 7, 188t By K.

REED Sentinel News Staff . MIDDLEPORT- A Middleport landmark, dedicated to the war veterans of Meigs County, is now subject to a complete restoration, under the direction of Feeney-Bennett Post 128, American Legion. The All-Wars Memorial, located in the Stewart-Bennett Memorial Park on Mill Street, will be restored from its red-tiled roof and ornamental eagle to the grounds around it, and the project will be lticked off in a Veterans Day ceremony on Thursday. Myron Duffield, a Legion member and chairman of the restoration committ~. said Friday that the estimat- · ed cost of refurbishing the gazebo and installing new landscaping and sidewalks has been set at $I 2.oop. Jerry Hawley is the post commander. The monument was constructed and dedicaied in 1927, according to a plaque at the base of the gazebo, which reads "May 30, 1927 - Ded.icated to soldiers and sailors in Meigs County in all wars." The monument originally stood in Pythian Park on the lower end of Middleport, near the current site of Imperial Electric. However, the monument was moved - it is believed in the late 1930s or early 1940s - to the current location. How the monument was moved is not known, Duffield _ l:ducati~l1 said. The restoration is to include the replacement or repair of red clay tiles on the roof, the repair and painting of the wooden structure, the repair and replacement of steps and sidewalks, restoration of lighting, and repair and refurbishing the cannon shells which border the gazebo. The cannon will be preserved . Duffield said that Legion members originally proposed major changes to the structure, including the replacement of the red-tiled roof with asphalt shingles, and removill of the steps around the base of the monument. Those proposed changes were later rejected, and plans are now to restore the monume~t as ·it was built, including the replacement of some or all of the red tiles _.:._ from the manufacturer of the original tiles. "To change any aspect of the monument would only say in years to come how we, in 1999, felt about maintaining this monument for the future," Duffield said. "In 2099, it will look as though it had been dedicated in 1999, not in 1987." "There are generations of children, grandchildren, gre~t-grandchildren as well as parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents who have many valued memories of this monument as it is today. It seems that it would only deprive future generations of the heritage that our ancestors left for us to enjoy -exactly as it was intended." The legion has committed $3,000 to the projec!, "a $1,000 corporate donation has bc;en received and a private donor has pledged $500. It is hoped that Thursday's ceremony will help kick off a fundraising drive throu2hout the countv to raise the balance of funds needed to restore the monument. The ceremony, led by Legion members, will begin at 4 p.m., and will pay tribute to the veterans honored by the memorial. The Meigs High School Marching Band will perform a brief concert, and Legion members will conduct a flag-raising ceremony. Mayor · Sandy lannarelli will speak, and a rifle volley will also be conducted at the end of the ceremony.

Administration representatives proposed a four-year program in which ever-growing amounts of money would be used to purchase park lands. President Clinton had proposed a "lands legacy" program that would spend $500 million for federal and local park land acquisition this year.

But the greatest change is perhaps one that does not meet the eye: a shift from a home visit-based program to a center-based prognim, more like a regular school. "Head Start has changed," said Meigs Site j'ollanager Vicltie Woods. "We're gearing more towards education." Meigs County's Head Start program·, administered by Access ·to Human· Resource Development' in Gallipolis, was previously a home visit-based program in which Head Start employees would work with · parents in their homes. · Last year, the program became'a combination home visit/center-based program with children attending center twice a week. This year, youngsters attend center four times a week for 3-112 hours each day. "It's a whole new program," she said. "Head Start gives them a head start on their education." Classes feature developmentally appropriate activities, Woods explained. "You can't expect a 3-year-old to sit down and write forever; a 5-yearold can do things a 3-year-old can't do," she said. The youngest children generally learn self-help activities - things like brushing their teeth, putting ·on coats, and washing their hands, she explained. They also get a strong dose of manners. "We try to make it fun ," she said. ·Kids also get plenty of "messy play." "When you come into the building you ought to be able to hear children laughing and having fun," she said. Currently there are I02 children attending classes at Tuppers Plains, with an additional 34 at Rutland Elementary School. Thirty-eight cllildren remain in the home-based program. The Tuppers Plains Head Start Center was the subject of numerous renovations during the summer. It remains a work in progress, with some work still to be done, including the completion of a downs~rs office, painting and other touches.
