Mike Shoemaker, D;Bourneville, as a potential top target next year. Senate President Richard Finan, R-Cincinmlti, indicated this week that the 17th District Senate scat may be one of a few "targeted races" tha[ Republicans focus their resources on in 1998. "I see it (the 17th District) as one that has a Republican leaning in tenns of registration - now that doesn't always mean anything- but it is there," he sAid during a year-cn4 interview with Statehouse reporters. "It's clearly one that we will look very strong at." Finan said he has had discussions about running for the seat with "four or five" people and that a GOP candidate should' be tapped "within the next couple weeks." However, he declined to name who has been approached to run for the seat. Well-known Republican candi" dates for the Shoemaker seat seem to . be in short supply. While Ohio Republican Party chief Bob Bennett publicly urged ex-Congressman Frank Cremeans to run for the _17th · District seat, the Gallipolis businessman has said he has no intentions of changing course from his candidacy .fQr, the Sixth Congressional District seat. The other natural candidate to take on Shoemaker in 1998 is State Rep. .John Carey, R-Wellston, who is the lone Republican Statehouse lawmaker from the 17th Senate District. However, .Carey recently announced he-.is running for re-election to his seat. Although the Shoemaker name is well-known in the northern part of the sprawling eigl)t-county J 7th Sen, ate district, Republican strategists consider the Bourneville senator who was appointed last year - vulnerable. They point out he has not run for offi'ce in the five southernmost counties in his district and represents a district which leans slightly Republican. When Republicans tried to unseat Shoemaker's Democratic predecessor in 1994, ·Jan Michael Long, they found a Scioto <:;ounty commissioner, .John Knauff, to run for the seat. 1\;~imilar "southern,strategy" would seem to make the ·most' political sense nexi year for Republicans loa{- ing to extend ·a 21-1 2 edge over Democrats in the Senate. Shoemaker, who along with his father Myrl, had continuously represented Ross County in the Ohio House from 1959 u~til moving to the Senate in 1996, said he is expecting to be targeted by the GOP next year. But he said he will stand on his record and-the name recognition his father established statewide when he served as Lt. Gov. under Dick Celes:e in the t980s. ·"My dad established a pretty good · reputation and one that was impeccable in tenns of honesty and integrity in the district," he said: "I'm not saying that .he's S!ill quite so wellknown but I'm going to take advantage of the Shoemaker name and even ru" a little bit on my own." The head of the Senate's Democratic caucu~. Minority Leader Ben Espy; D-Columbus, said that he thinks Shoemaker will get locked into a IC?ugh battle with whoeve* the Republicans nominate. "I expect that Senator Shoemaker is going to have a tough race down there," he said. "The political index in that district is such that it can be a winnable r11ce for us and a winnable race for thelt!:" .fieQUlatQ~§J,.~~rampl.~-1~,.

Fewer and fewer men arc occupymg 'the pews m today's churches, In 1990, church sociolog!sl George Barna Plagenz found that 40 , percent of the men he polled had some kind of church relationship.

If you want to d1scover whether your church 1s the "meat and potatoes" type that appeals to men. don 't count the number of males in the pews Many a man IS in church o·n Sunday only because his. wife anil children are there. The real test is: How many men are in churcll by themselves, as com- pared to the number of women who are there alone? ·The proportion of women to men in that calculation would be closer to 8 to 2 -- or even 9 to I What's happesung to cause th1s startling church dropout rate among men?

' I • My friend, Shari, tias a story that will give us all hope, encouragement and strength in· the new year. I last wrote about .Jhe beautiful win· ler wedding on Shari and Phil in December, I 992, "Their blissful faces expressed the joy of the moment. Such happiness!" Their first son, Zachry, came along in 1994, and Frsher was born in February, I997. Shari looked forward to celebrating Phil's birthday oq July 19. But first, on lhe 18th, they planned to take three year-old Zac to the lake for his first Shively boat ride. Since Shari worked for the coroner's office, she hoped she wouldn't be called out to investigate a death. But about_3 p.m., she heard units dispatched to an accident, and the confirmatron of a death. Immediately, she left !he office. · She .said, "I paged l,'hilto let him know to avoid the area. Just as I was nearing the intersection, I heard dispatch inform the deputy to stop me at the che<;kpoint...as I hung up my car phone, I looked at1he phone and realized !hal Phil hadn't returned my page. I knew the only "'".s?n ·they would stop me ... an hour later, the coroner hahded me Ph1l s wallet and said, 'I'm sorry, it's PhiL"' Shari insisted on going to the scene. In the seal beside Phil were a new beach towel and life jacket for Zac's first boat trip. The 35 yearold handsome deputy sheriff, husband , Daddy, died in the tragic scene .. . and the birthday candles waited in their box . .In Shari's job, one of the hardest thing.• she. has to do is to tenderly tnform a moth~r and dad that a child has died in an accident Her pastor drove her to Phil's parents' home. Life alone challenged this young mother of a pre-sc hooler and a five month-old baby. How do you explain to a lillie boy who spent a lot of lime With Daddy that he wouldn't be there anymore? Zac want· ed I~ getm the car and drive to heaven to see Daddy. When t~e child d1dn I gtve h1s money rn Sunday School at church. he said, "When I gello heave, I'll give it to Jesus." Zac is still trying to adjust. . One by one, Shari handled decisions, broken lawn mowers, and msurance hassles. Last summer, two sergeants mowed her four and a half-acre law, and for this winter, she's bought a tractor with a snow · blower for her long driveway. Shari ~aid, "Although this year has been a roller coaster, literally and emol!Onally, With more tears than laughter -· it has' been overshadowed by Love!" Almost 1,000 guests expressed their sympathy at Phil's visitation and funeraL Instead of flowers, she set up a trust fund for the boys' college education. To dale, about $24,000 has been given . She said, · · ."Praise the Lord." , As Shari expressed gratitude to her church family, ·I saw a lowe[ of strength ·- God ... flow throug~ her. She said, "I have so many lhmgs to be thankful fot. You expressed your genuine sorrow and fell my pain. Don't feel sorry or sad for us. You can't be sad araund the boys and not laugh. We'll be okay. I feel so happy, so blessed, so.won· derful'for all the love you've shown this year." This month, Shari will return to work at the coroner's office. The next time she has·to'inform a family o~th, she can truly say, ."l . know how it feels ." God's strength, love compassion will flow through her to !he hurting ones. Shari has the same God that Moses had when he said, "The Lord is my strength ... This is my God, and I will praise Him ... " She has the same Gpd a:;.J~\n,g _J:l,a.vid, who proclaimed, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in . trouble. Therefore we will not fear ... " And Jesus said," ... He hath sent me to heal.lhe brokenhearted ... " She also knows that Philippians 2:13 is true. "II is God who is at work in you, both to will and to wark for His go~dllll!sure." Father, thank You. I know it has pleased you to pu into the heans of hundreds of people.the love and support You want o give to Shari and her family. Continue to strengthen her for tl) work You have chosen for her lo do. May she be a comfort to others who experience tragedy. Hold Shari, Zac and Fisher close to You and keep them safe.

The practice arose from the 1984 dcrcguialion of the long-d istance business. The problem worsened in the laS! few years as new companies joined a crowded field of long-d istan.cc providers inundating consumers with mail and phone solicilatiqns that are oflen confusing. · Slamming is possible be2ause 1\sr way for a COf1Sumer to deal with under ·federal regulation, long-dis- slamming is to scrutinize their tan£e.service is routed through local monthly phone bill, which should providers, 'who are permilled to .. cle'arly identify the long-distance carassign tustomer to a long-distance rier. • • company unless the customer · If the carrier is one ·that wasn 't requests otherwise. requested, t1.51llmers ean call their -Local providers will c~ange a cus- local provider and instruct them to tomer.'s long-distance carrier if a switch the account back. · long-distance company calls and says "We getlhese calls alithe lime," . lhe customer requested the change , said Eric Rabe, spokesman for Bell .The iong-dislance COI"(lpany is sup- Atlantic Corp.
