Continued from pege A1
because most cases of HIV infection
and AIDS are diagnosed in metropolit&amp;ll areas, rather than in the
patients' home coun1ies, which
could skew the statistics.
'In a small county such as Meigs
County, people are more likely to
come to Columbus or Cincinnati for
testing, due to confidentiality concerns; • Shumate said. "In one small
Ohio ci&gt;unty, HIV testing is performed in a trailer in the back. and it
is well known that the only reason a
person would he in that trailer is to
have an HIV test."
The statistics can also be mis- ·
leading in the other -direction, Shumate noted, because in cases where
AIDS is diagnosed, the patients
often return to their rural homes for
treatment.
"In other words," Shumate said,
"they go home to die."
These AIDS cases are reponed by
law. However, they reflect only the
cases of AIDS, not cases of HIV
infection. Because HIV blood tests
are confiden!ial, the number of
infection cases is not known. However, Shumate said, the standard formula for estimating the number of
HIV positive cases is to multiply the
number of AIDS cases by five . It is
possible, then, that there are 15
cases of HIV infection in Meigs
County, and 35 cases of HIV infection in Gallia County, although the
formula is less than scientific.
TESTING EASIER
The recent arrival of home HIV
tests has made testing more accessible to those with concerns about
their HIV status, Shumate said. The
test results are accurate, but only if
the subject performs the test accurately. The tests involve a fingerstick, landing a drop of blood on a
card, allowing the drop to dry and
then mailing it to the company for
testing.
The tests require an lith-grade
reading level, Shumate said, which
could promote a problem. At least
one of the tests, sold under the trade
name 'Confide," is now off the market due to problems with the tes!

in rural areas·.

Another home-testing method,
which is ordered from the Caribbean
through ' the internet, allows the subject to perform his own testing at
home, including the analysis. That
test chei:)&lt;s the subject's saliva for
antibodies. Such a test has not been
approved by the Food and Drug
Administration and is not expected
to be approved, Shumate said.
Shumate also noted that HIV is
not spread through saliva, although
the HIV antit&gt;odie5 can be detected
in saliva. AIDS and the HIV virus
which causes the disease is most
commonly spread through sex~al
contact and through shared intra-

venous drug equipment. It is not
spread through casual contact sucfi
as touching. The issue of HIV hein&amp;
spread through kissing has become
more controversial in recent months,
and the Columbus AIDS Thsk Force
notes that 'deep kissing can ~
risky," because infected body fluid•
can pass through small cuts and
sores in the mouth.

its retired vice president of operations, J. Harschel Thomassee, face
fines for violating the Clean Water
Act Thomassee also could be sent
!O prison.
U.S. District Judge Herman
Weber postponed Friday's sentencing unlit Aug. 25 because
Thomassee had an illness in the
family, said Glenn Whitaker, a
lawyer for MIG Transpon Services.
The judge on July 2 threw out
some of the convictions the federal
government obtained from its twoyear investigation of dumping into
the rivers. The U.S. Depanment of
JUSiice might appeal Weber's ruling.
The judge cleared Thomassee and
the company of dumping without a
permit. Weber also cleared towboat
captains Fred E. Morehead of Vienna. W.Va .. and Roben S. Mont.gomery of Racine of convictions for
dumping pollutants without a permit.

Air Force finally comes clean on Roswell
By Jack Anderson
end J.., Moller
WASHINGTON -- The borde of
UFO believers who gathered along a
normally lonely stretch of desert jn
Roswell, N.M., earlier this month is
the latest evidence of the foolishness
that government coverup can cause.
The visitors gathered for the 50th
anniversary of a believed UFO crash,
an event the U.S. government prol&gt;ably could have debunked decades
. ago.
Instead. the Air Force waited until
a week before the anniversary to pr&lt;r
duce a 231-page report, " The
• I
Roswell Report: Case Closed,"
which, indeed, offers reasonable
•~planations for a series of strange
eyewitness accounts of events that
occurred decades ago.
The " Roswell Incident" has
become a centmj myth of UFO lore.
It began in July 1947 when a rancher northwest of Roswell found debris
from a crashed object he thought was
a flying saucer. Aluminum-foil -like
bits and pieces were reported to be
impervious to burning or ripping, and
after crumpling went back to their
original shape without creases.
When the Army Air Force investigated, the first official press release

issued about Roswell declared the
mililal}' had the remnants of a flying
•aucer. Within hours, however, higher-ups declared the first press release

By Jack Anderson
and
JanMoller
a mistake and explained that the
debris was merely a downed weather balloon.
The story laid dormant for decades
until it was resurrected by a supermarket tabloid in 1978. Since then, at
least four books have been published
on the Roswell Incident, and it is a
central theme in the popular sci-fi 1V
series, "The X-Files."
·
The story evolved from the rancher finding the foil·like bits and pieces
to purponed accounts of one live and
several dead aliens being recovered
by the Army Air Force around the
same the time.
A grollndswell of interest in the
matter finally prompted Rep. Steven
H. Schiff, R-N.M. -- a UFO skeptic
-- to ask the Pentagon in March 1993
to declassify everything relating to
the Roswell military operation. He

flight accident caused one capiain's
helmet to shatter and his head to

him appear alien-like when he
walked into a New Mexico hospital·.
Every fact recited in the new Air
Force report could have easily been
declassified more than a decade ago.
This reasonable series of probable
explanations certainly could have
been shared with an inquiring congressman and GAO auditors two
years ago.
The upshot is that the truth rarely
hurts terribly, but the repercussions of
!
a coverup often do. Just ask Richard
Ni&lt;on. Or ask the relatives of the 39
suicidal members of the Heaven's
Gate cult, ·who bought into the
Roswell conspiracy theory ·and
believed a UFO would come pick
them up after they died. That tragedy
is not the fault of the U.S. government. .of course, but ihe Roswell Incident, which has been fairly debunked
by the U.S. Air Force, was allowed to
grow and fester unnecessarily for
these and other adherents-- when the
Air Force could have shared the truth
a long time ago. ·

WASHINGTON - The brutally honest, national dialogue on race that
President Clinton wants is under way with a bang- inside Rep. Tony Hall's
mail bag.
·
The Ohio Democrat is being inundated with letters from people who are
vehemently opposed to his request that Congress apologize to blacks for slavery.
.
Hall estimates that, for every letter like this one from West Virginia:
"Thank you for your effort to at least start us doing the right thing," there
are three like this one.:
"Apologize to American Negroes for slavery? You communist, socialist
bastards have gone more nuts than I thought you could."
That C8JIIe from a Texas man who calculated that the government owes
him $13S million for the slaves his great-great-grandfather lost at the end
of the Civil War.
The response to Hall 's bid for an apology is a blunt illusuation of what
awaits Clinton over the next year as he carries out his plan to get Americans 10 articulate and resolve their racial differences.
Polls indicate the White House task is daunting. A CBS News poll last
month indicated 58 percent of Americans think racial problems are beyond
· the president's control. A Gallup poll indicated the same percentage believe
race relations will always be a problem.
Ronald Walters, professor of political science and African American studies at the University of Maryland, said Clinton should study the dialogue
drawn out by Hall's plan because it can help him sidestep land mines in his
own initiative.
•
. "'Ibe White House may be fooled Into thinking that this is just the public's response to a crazy proposal," Walters said. "But what it does say is
tbe people who ""' in and around thio (White House) effort aced to be very
savvy about this issue or they are going to make a lot of mistakes."
The president has said he would consider an apology. Aides say ClintQn
would not. he s"'l'ri~ if his own plan draws out even more deeply rooted
emotion than Hall's has.
_
,
"It would not be a swprise that there woald he reactions that are deeply ~
felt. su-ongly held and, in many cases, often not uttered aloud," said White
House S(ll&gt;keswoman Ann Lewis. "In !he course of the year there may be By ROBEAT WEEDY

Lockdown eases at Orient facility
ORIENT - A prison lockdown ordered after inmates allegedly set a
fire in a dormitory was eased Friday.
Inmates at Orient Correctional Institution now are allowed into recre- .
ation yards for an hour a day and may go to dining halls for meals, said
Joe Andrews, spokesman for the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and
Correction. Visitation is to resume Saturday.·
Inmates still may not go to their jobs or classes at the medium-security prison 15 miles southwest of Columbus.
The lockdown - in which inmates are restricted to dorms - was
ordered after a fire Wednesday burned a hole in a dormitory's roof.
Authorities say at least four inmates are suspected of staning the fire
because they were upset about being assigned to a r~strictive drug reha·
bilitation program.
·
A damage estimate was not yet available.
About 350 inmates were sent to prisons at Lucasville and Marion after
the- fire. About 1,700 prisoners remain at Orient.

Trial cost mounts for Fletche-r family
HUNTING'ION, W.Va. (AP) Legal bills for a Huntington couple
charged with murder in the Caribbean
are mounting daily, compounded by
family travel expenses as lawyers
argue over when the couple's trial
will begin.
" Nothing good can come from

said Thursday, a day after what was
supposed to have been the start ofthe

DAYTON (AP)- The rains that
followed spring into summer have ,
created swimming pools in Ohio
that serve as welcome mats for ticks
and mosquitoes. ·
Dr. Morton Nelson, Montgomery
County health commissioner, said
recent rains combined with warming
temperatures have produced ideal
conditions for ticks and mosquitoes
to feast on people's blood.
The critters can spread Rocky
Mountain spotted fever anq
encephalitis, an inflammation of the
brain.
And Pete Lane, the county's
extension agent for Ohio .State Uni·
versity. said there are other dangers.
Tick bites can produce tularemia,
or rabbit fever, and acute motor
paralysis. he said. And then there is
rabies; shigella, a waterborne parasite; and giardasis, a bacterial infection found in beaver feces .
. "Even a quaner-cup of water in
your back yard can breed mosquitoe$ •.'.'.-Ne:li.on said. '.'Some. people
keep an extra tire in their yard. That
can really hold water. With the rains
and warm days, the potential is very
high for mosquito breeding."
Lane said Ohio has had more
reported cases of LaCrosse
encephalitis than any other state.
As for ticks, he said, "it's more a
case of people being out where the
ticks are in midsummer than on any
significant population change."

Exhumation ordered
on Sheppard's body
CLEVELAND (AP)- The body
of Dr. Sam Sheppard will be
exhumed in an attempt to clear his
name in ·the 1954 murder case that
inspired the movie and television
series "The Fugitive."

Sheppard's son, Sam Reese Sheppard of Oakland, Calif., agreed to the
exbumation. Judge Ron · Suster of
Cuyahoga County Common Pleas
Court signed an order for the body to
be exhumed and brought to Cleve·
land for genetic testing.
The county, which prosecuted
Sheppard in the death of his wife , will
pay to have his body exhumed in
September from a Columbus ceme·
tery.
"We want to make sure we leave
no issue unexplQI'ed," the Sheppard
family attorney, Terry Gilbert, told
The Associated Press early today.
"Really, it's a sound scientific protocol to have all the potential donors
(of crime seene blood) tested ...
Gilbert said the purpose of the
exhumation is to compare Sheppard's DNA to the genetic makeup of
blood found in his Bay Village hmme
after Marilyn Sheppard was found
bludgeoned to death.
Suster earlier set a Jan. 26 trial

against the state. He wants $250,000
for his father's incarCeration, plus
compensation for financial losses.
Cuyahoga County prosecutors
have asked the Ohio Supreme Court
to block the trial, saying the question
'or Sheppard's innocence died with
the doctor in 1970.
"We have been talking about it·
(the exhumation) for some time,"
Gilbert said. "Since the trial isn't
until January, we felt there was time
todoit." '
Plans for the exhumation were disclosed in a story published today in
The Plain Dealer.
Sheppard, who died of liver failure at age 46, was buried in Forest
Lawn Cemetery in Columbus. He
was wearing his trademark sunglasses and favorite blue suit.
He was convicted of seconddegree murder in 1954, imprisoned
for 10 years and then acqu.itted in
1966 at a retrial ordered by the U.S.
Supreme Court. The court had
ordered a retrial because of the extensive media coverage of the fust trial.

" I'm not a . lawyer," the judge
replied . "I' m the finder of fact"
And, Brown said, " Dr. King is
dead and in his grave. He is a nation·
al hero, a world hero. Ther~ is a
national holiday named after him ...
" I'm not going to allow the vicissitudes of an artful cross-examination
to keep me, as the fin\ler of fact, fro":'
getting to the bottom of this."
Brown, a gun enthusiast, asked
detailed ' questions about the effects
that firing various types of ammum·
tion, and using various kinds of
cleaning methods, would have on the
barrel of the rifle.
The judge appeared to give more
weight to testimony from Hathaway
and Kelly File, a firearms examiner
from Georgia, than to testimony
from :rommy Heflin, who has been
examining firearms for the Tennessee
Bureau of Investigation since 1977.
All three of the experts said cleaning the disputed rifle's barrel with
anything more than a cloth could
change the markings that it would
leave on bullets filed through it.
Heflin said the TBI never cleans
gun barrels before testing unless
!hey are rusted or otherwise con tam·.

.Rogers sentenced to die via ·
electroct.~tion in Fla. slaying
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -A Hamilton, Ohio, native was sen!enced to die
in the electric chair Friday for slashing a Tampa woman, then leaving her
ia a motel bathtub to slowly die.
Glen Rogers, 34, said nothing during the proceedings. But, as he was
led out a back door, he said he wa• "not worried about it, not w'orried at
all."
The husky ex-carnival worker, clad in an orange jail jumpsuit and
shackled hand and foot, showed no reaction as he was sentenced by Circuit Judge Diana Allen for the Nov. 5, 1995, death of Tina Marie Cribbs,
a stranger he met at a bar who had agreed to give him a ride to his motel.
· Ms. Cribbs, 34, struggled for her life, trapped in a small motel bathroom with iittle, if any, chance of escl!pe, the judge said.
The killer had a knife, with a blade at least 9 112-inches long, tharwas
plunged through Ms. Cribbs' ches.t, piercing a lung, and again into her
buttocks, puncturing a major artery.
M¢ical experts said it took up to 20 minutes for her to lose con·
sciousness and maybe an hour for her to die.
·
"Ms. Cribbs 'was conscious at the least long enough to realize her
lifeblood was flowing down the bathtub drain and that she could not escape
death," the judge said.
Rogers also· is accused of murder in Louisiana, California, and Mississippi and is suspected of another killing in Kentucky as part of a 1995 .
cross-country crime spree.
.
Ms. Cribbs' mother, Mary Dicke, who sat in a front row of the counrootn ihroup;h the trial. was absent for sentencing. .

Lehman, Norman
&amp; W&lt;;)ods prepare
fo_
r British Open
By RON SIRAK
TROON, Scotland (AP) - The
Royal Troon Golf Course has been
good to Americans, producing winners from the west side . of the
Atlantic the last four times the
British Open was played there.
While that sounds gOOII for Tiger
Woods and defending ~hampion
Torn Lehman, the I 26th Open
beginning Thursday also comes at a
time when many of the top players
in the world are at peak form.
Contenders are everywhere and
from every comer of the globe:
Three-time British Open winner
Nick Fa! do of England, the twotime wi.nner from Australia, Greg
Norman, and Colin Montgomerie, a
hot golfer with the home -course
advantage, all come in playing well.
No one has been hotter than U.S.
Open champion Ernie Els of South
Africa . And Nick Price of
Zimbabwe, Bernhard Langer of
Germany and Spaniard Jose Maria
Olazabal ' all seem to have their
games back.
Throw in Jesper Parnevik of
Sweden. New Zealander Frank
Nobilo and Costantino Rocca of
Italy and . the chances ·of an
American winning the world,'s old·
est golf tournament for the third
consecutive year seem remote.
Woods, wllo has won six times
on the PGA Tour in only 21 tournaments as a professional- including
a stunning 12-stroke victory at the
Masters - is at the top of many
lists.
"You ' ve got to look at both
Tiger and Ernie," Nobilo said.
"The one thing that the British
Open has always seemed to bring
forward is the best player that year
seems to have won it on so many
occasions."
Besides playing well, Woods and
Els also have the length anc! touch
needed to win at Troon, stretched
along the west coast of Scotland on
the Irish Sea.
"The British Open does suit a
stronger hitter of the ball," Nobilo
said, speaking about Woods. "So I
think with his ·style of pl1.y, the
British Open will suit him right
down to a tee, as it will Ernie .
Prob~bly Greg Norman. Not so

to tum pro, has proven he can handle the hard, fast links where shots
can't be fired at the flags bui must
be delicately encouraged to bound
near the hole.
·
:·1 ihoroughly enjoy links golf,"
Woods said last week while winning
the Western Open, his last tune-up
before the Open. "I think that's the
,ultimate golf just because you get to
use·your imagination for once."
The first three holes at Royal
Troon are par-4 holes measuring less
than 400 yards. With the prevailing
wind at his back, Woods can drive
the holes. But .British courses are
fraught with dangers not measured
in yards.
··
"Pot bunkers are deep," . Woods
said about the steep-faced hazards
that could keep the driver in his bag.
"More importantly, it's where
they ' re placed.
"If they're placed right where my
ball is going to land, obviously;
that's not very good for me to try
and go for it," said Woods, who will
sec the course for the first time on
Tuesday.
Gauging the placement of the pot
bunkers is something Woods can
control. The weather is 'SOmething
he will have to endure.
"If we have four days of .v .
strong wind, the scores are goin
be high,.' ' Price·said.
"As I understand. the rough is
like four or five inches toward the
edge of the fairway because they put
that new double sprinkler system
in, " Price said. "It's a real links golf
course, the front nine going out with
the wind and the back nine coming
back into it:" ·
The back side is also the longer
of the two hines with all six par-4s
measuring over' 430 yards and a
223-yard par-3 at No. 17 that plays
into the wind.
·
'
·
"The secret. to playing well on
that course is to post a score going
out and hold it together coming
back," said Price, who played the
last six holes of the 1982 Open at.
Troon four over par and finished one
stroke behind winner Tom Watson.
Mark Calcavecchia won at Troon
in 1989 , defeating .Norman and
Wayne Grady in the first playoff

Athletic fortune can open door to academic boon
that's becoming prevalent in a market-frenzied age of saturation cable
and all-sports TV.
Not only have schools begun to
recognize that they can strategically
use sports to trigger a flood of appli· cations' from high-grade students,
but, in the case of smaller private
schools, use the publicity to anract
students far· beyond their traditional
gepgraphic a.udiences.
·
At Charleston, for example,
Internet inquiries to the admissions
office went from an average of 80 a
week to 380 a day during the team's
tournament. appearance.
Or take the case of Nonhwestem
University. Since the football team's
march to the Rose Bowl in the fall
of 1995, applications to the
Evanston, Ill., university are up 30
percent. and the SAT stores of
incoming freshman are 19 points
higher.
There are millions of dollars
involved as well. One dramatic
increase: Northwestern 's licensing
revenue from selling everything
from rugs to radios emblazoned
with the Northwestern or Wildcats
name went from $59,000 in 1994-95
·to $600,000 a year later.
What happened at Northwestern
is an unexpected, bul by no means
unique, phenomenon. Even in the
' 1950s, the visibility of the basket·
ball team at Seton Hall University
helped attract World War U veterans
and fuel the New Jersey school's
· rapid growth.
Lately, Duke University, Boston
College, George . Washington
University and the University of
Massachusetts are among other
schools that saw applications and
awareness rocket after the football
or men's basketball team made
nalional headlines. And while athletic success was by no means the
only factor, in each case it was a big
element in the equation.
A USA TODAY examination of

.
the sports/ad missions connection
found it more prevalent among
strong academic schools and most
dramatic when team's success is a
surprise.
And it doesn ' t always happen.
For example. the University of
Wisconsin went from rags to Rose
Bowl in the fall of 1993. But unlike
Northwestern, it saw virtually no
change in its applications.
Why not?
One theory :
Northwestern is a privat~ school
with 75 percent of the student body
from outside Illinois, so the national
exposure mattered greatly;·
Wisconsin, by contrast, is a state
school that draws 65 percent of its
undergraduates from in-state.
When the connection 'between
athletics and academics is made, it
appears to be limited to football and
men's basketball, and more a reflection of the power of mass media
exposure .than a statement on the
impact of sports in our culture.
·"Without taking away from the
efforts of our staff, part of the plan
was to expand geographically and
'the ·quick success is in-great part due
to the exposure we had nationally,"
said Jim Van Blunk, director of
admissions . at St. Joseph's
University in Philadelphia.
The exposure he's talking about
is from basketball: As St. Joe's
cracked the Thp 20 and reached the
"Sweet 16" · of the NCAA
Tournament this spring, 1,000 students accepted admission for the fall
- a 22 percent increase from last
year.
"It comes down to n~ recognition," said Bob Chemak, vice president for student and academic support services at George Washington
University in Washington, D .C.
"You cannot afford the kind of
advenising it takes to get the same
publicity."

It didn't seem to matter that the
College of Charleston was the 13th
oldest university in the nation. Or
that.three of its original members of
the board signed the Declaration of
Independence, or that three others
signed the Constitution.
Whenever school president Alex
Sanders left town, it was always,
"College of where?.''
No one is saying that about this
9,700-student school in Charleston,
S.C., anymore , and it's not because
of its listing in Barron's " best buys"
for college or .a sudden admiration
of the elegant architecture on its historic campus.
The reason everyone knows
about the College of Charleston
these days is basketball.
"We're 227 years old and until
we had a team in the Top 25,
nobody had heard of us," Sanders
said.
As Charleston's team marched to
national prominence and played two
exciting games in the NCAA tournament last March, the school
received an estimated $3 .3 mill.ion
worth.of free publicity, a late influx
of applications and a newfound
identity beyond its state borders.
Whether it's ca lled the "Fiutie
Factor" or " mission-driven intercollegiate athletics." the impact of
having a winning sports team is

CINCINNATI (APJ - After
feuding with pitcher Mike Morgan
for cbe l)euer part of a week. Cincinnati Reds manager Ray Knight
admitted Friday that he challenged a
manager .the same way during his
playing days.
Knight kicked Morgan out of the
clubhouse last Sunday when .the
pitcher s,Pd ·he no longer respected
Knight. The two had a blowup during a game last Friday, and the Reds
considered trading Morgan over the
All-Star game break because of the

clash.
Apologies have been exchanged,
settling the matter for now.
On Friday, Knight said the thing
that upset him most was Morgan say- .
ing he no longer respected the manager.
"I was so angry and hurt," Knight
said. "I've had people say that they
didn 'I like me, 'but I've never had
people say they didn't respect me.
That hun me immensely."
However, Knight recalled that
when he played for Houston manager Bob Lillis in 1984. he .made the

same type of statement.
" I told him I had no respect for
him," Knight said. "I called him a
couple of nasty names."
Later that year, Knight was trad·
ed to the New York Mets for three
players to be named - Gerald
Young, Manny Lee and Mitch Cook.
Morgan will stick around for at
least awhile because the Reds have
no immediare plans to trade him. The
question is whether Knight ultimatelY will survive the latest example of his problems with the clubhouse.

By JOE KAY .
.
CINCINNA11 (AP)- When cbe
Montreal Expos had escaped a fourth
and final bases-loaded threat, man·
ager Felipe Alou started worrying
about more long-term trouble.
Shortly after a S-2 victory Friday
night over the Cincinnati Reds, Alou
got the' infonnation he had feared:
Vladimir Guerrero is hurt again. The
21-year-old outfielder was hit by a
pitch in the ninth inning and suffered
a hairline fracture in the left hand
that will sideline him· for three to
four weeks.
It was bad enough that Alou got
ejected for arguing with home plate
umpire Ed Rapuano, who ruled that
Stan Belinda's pitch had hit Guer·
rero's bat and was a foul.
"I was begging God that he l!ad
no fracture," Alou said. ''To call'it a
foul, ·eject the manager and you're
going to lose a player for a month or
more, it's ridiculous."
Alou also made a cryptic com·

Kane and ·Swain stand among victors
BY SCOTT WOLFE

nature's fragile judgement never
illows tna11 to come up with the right
combination.
However, ToCid "The Dominator"
Kane of Powell, provided the common denominator on two different
occasions to post a giant victory in
the second installment of the CocaCola Oassic Sprint car series Friday
night at Skyline Speedway.
· ·
Kane had won the first $3,000
meet a linle over a month ago in the
Gene Davis 199, then Friday jumped
abolld the family Maxim Chassis
1178 to claim yet another $3,000 triumph over a fine field of cars representative of four different states.
Kenny Johnson of Miner8J Wells,
W.Va. claimed the dramatic Late
Model Mid-season championship
main over Bob Adams Jr. Ralph
Withem proved unstoppable in the
S~t Stocks, picking up his fourth
victory in a row. Lyle Swain of long
Bonom scored his first Skyline feature win in the Four Cylinders.
Kane said in victory lane, ."The
track was exceptionally nice tonight.
I hated to see that caution come out
near the end cause the low groove I
was running was starting to go away.
I figured Jim Nier was back there
somewhere, so I knew I needed a
good jump an the stan."
The Dominator continued, "Our
regular ride is in the shbp getting
freshened up, so we brought out our
back-up tonight. It was nice to have
something to fall back on. I thank my
dad and uncle for their hard work on
the crew. The car was fast on the bottom (of the track) tonight. Also, it
helped drawing an eight."
' Kane seemed to have "Lady
Luck" on his side all evening long.
The "eight" inversion put Ohio's
winningest driver and new track
record hOlder (II :27 clocking), Jim
Nier of Piketon, in the eighth staning slot, giving Kane some breathing
room at the stan.
Also, Kane almost never got to
race at ill. In the first set of hot laps,
his car broke a power steering pump,
but his crew was able to make

repairs in time for his qualifying run. in the early stages of titd'race, but on

---.

By SAM WILSON
Time• Sentinel Conwpondllllt
My first memory of Larry Doby was when he
was named manager of lhe Chicago White Sox in
1978. The White Sox.were a miserable team back
then, and owner Bill Veeck, as usual, was trying to draw greater fan support.
He was also helping out an old friend.
' .
.
For the second time, Veeck would allow Doby to follow Robinson in
making baseball history.
.
·
·,
Previously, on July 3, 1947, Doby became the first African-American
player in the American League when he pinched-hit for the Oeveland Indians, a team owned by Veeck. Jackie Robinson had been playing in the
National League for Brooklyn since opening 4;\y. Doby was 11 weeks
behind Robinson in breaking the color barrier.
-Three years after Frank Robinson became the first ·African-Ariterican to
manage in the major leagues (again for (:leveland), Doby replaced Bob
Lemon as manager of the Sox •I mid-seasQn. He led them to a 37-50 record
under his tutelage, and would be replaced by Don Kessinger the following
season; however, for the second time, Doby was to make history in baseball
by being number two.
Last Tuesday, both Frank Robinson and Doby were honored as honorary
captains of this year's All-Star game.
This pas.t w~k, Doby, Cleveland and,Bill Veeck finally received many of
the accolades they dese~ed long ago. These men, this city and organization
.were all at the cutting edge of combating racism in baseball and America.
It was appropriate that Cleveland was chosen as the site of this year's AllStar game because it was at the forefront of change in baseball on two separate occasions. It was equally significant that Doby also finally received the
notoriety he so richly deserved, but which seems to have escaped him over
the years.
Doby encountered racism and bigotry in the American League that was
just as demeaning and degrading as what Jackie Robinson faced in the senior
circuit. Like Jackie, he always turned the other cheek. He could depend
upon, however, the warin support he received from' the Cleveland fans, and
the confidence of Bill Veeck.
Much has been written about what Branch Rickey did for Robinson. But
how much ·is known about the help, support and advice given to Doby by
:Veeck? Doby, like Jackie, was given a list of dos and don 'ts to follow while
on and off the field . Jie, too, couldn't react if given insults, or argue calls
with umpires.
Cleveland retired his No. 14 in 1994 as tribute to his courage and abilities. This action is high praise when one considers the Indians have only
retired five numbers in their history.
It's a shame that C~icago can 't receive some attention for its (Ole in
Doby's career. After all, not only did he manage there, but his first game as
a player was in old Comiskey Park as a 23-year-old rookie, when he played
for player-manager Lou· Boudreau.
It's a great story that has been neglected by history because Doby followed Robinson. In American society, number two is often forgotten on the
back pages of yesterday 's news.
.
Doby's road to accep~ce wasn't any easier than Robinson's; however,
Larry is still alive today to enjoy the. moment. That in itself may be the real
reward for being second: being.first literally killed Jackie Robinson.
LasfTuesday, baseball and American had time to reflect. Not only for the
Robinsons, Larry ~y. Don Newcombe, Luke Easter, Roy Campanella apd
those who followed, liut for the difference they made in both our national
pastime and country.
I was born a generation after these players broke into the major leagues.
I cannot remember baseball being played without African-American or Latin
players. Consequently, I cannot c6mprehend what it must have been like
-without them. After all, my hero as a 'child was Bob Gibson, an AfricanAmerican pitcher.

:Fergus takes -one-strok~
lead in Quad City Classic

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Jason
Jacome was the obvious .choice
when Oeveland starter Brian Anderson was scratched because of a stiff
left shoulder. After all, Jacome has
made a career. as an effective stopgap pitcher.
Jacome pitched five effective
innings and Marquis Grissom hit a
two-run homer Friday night, leading
the Indians past Minnesota 5-1.
"I'm really excited that I got to go
out there and finally do something
for the team," said Jacome, who last
· pitched on June 29. "I've just been
sitting around the last couple of
weeks and not contributing.
"I was a starter for two games last
year and I really didn't pitch the way
1 should have. I got moved into the
bullpen and you don't get a chance
to see a lot of wins or losses when
you're facing one or lwo batters."
In his second stan of the season,
Jacome gave up one run and five
hits. He walked none and struck out
one. It was his first victory since
1995 and first since being picked up
off waivers May 8 from Kansas City.
"I thought Jason . threw the ball
well and it came at a great time. We
needed it," Indians manager Mike
Hargrove said. "I was just thinking
one inning, then I thought two
innings. Then I thought three
innings. Then I thought four. When .
I got to five, I thought 'That 's
enough."' ·
·
Anderson was scratched less than
15 minutes before game time. Hargrove said the injury is not expected
to be serious.
"He was warming up and his
shoulder wouldn't loosen up in the
back," Hargrove said. "He hadn't
thrown the ball for seven days and it
just wouldn'tloosen up."
Aside from Jack McDowell
(elbow trouble), Chad Ogea (elbow
trouble) and Albie Lopez (strained
calO. who are all on the disabled list,
Eric . Plunk (bone spur) and Paul
Shuey (strained knee ligament) also
are hurting.
Hargrove then brought in Jose
Mesa for a rare middle-relief appear'
ance.
"We had to go to Mesa in the sixth
and that's unusual," Hargrove said.
"But we 're playing for the win and
I figured that g·ave us the best
chance."
It worked, as Mesa went three
innings, giving up four hits and no
runs, while striking out four. Paul
Assenmacher closed out the victory
with a perfect ninth inning.
"We couldn't get anything working on the offensive side~" Twins

manager Tom Kelly said. "Mesa
came in and shut us down. He made
it tough on us."
Twins starter Rich Robertson·(77) gave up just four hits in five
innings, but two of the .hits were
home runs, one each for Grissom and
Julio Franco.
·
"I just didn '! make the pitches I
needed to," Robertson said. "The
home runs explain it. Two of their

You don't have lo buy the tank!
If you buy a 500 gallon tank from our competition at $1 ,200 and that is
what lhey charge for the lank, that means you own the tank. If someday a
valve goes bad on that tank, it will cost you several hundred dollars to have
the tank pumped out and a new valve put in. The owner of the tank will
bear these expenses.
·
~
If you have a tank leased from Rutland Bottle Gas, these repairs are
free, up to and including replacement of the tank if necessary al no cost to
you, the customer_
Call our competition and verify what we say about the tank if you own it.
If you buy propane for one year from our competitor at 59.9¢ and pay
$1,200 to buy the tank (which is required to get the price of 59_9¢) you will
have $1,559.40 in your propane for the first year if you use 600 gallons.
This equals to paying over $2.59 a gallon for your propane instead of 59¢.
.If .you use 900 gallons of propane under the same program, you would
have spent $1,740 which equals $1.93 per gallon. This means that you
would have paid our competition $660 more than you would have paid
Rutland Bottle Gas if we had ~harged you $1 .20 per gallon for the whole
year (which we have never done).
If you were a victim of this plan, and purchased a tank from our
competitor, when the 12 months are up, you are not obligated to buy your
propane from them- You can buy your propane from Rutland Bottle Gas or

Schrader gets Jiffy Lube 300 pole
'i n bid to kill Winston·Cup drought
By MIKE RECHT
LOUDON, N.H. (AP) - Ken
Schntder took care of one slump, and
put himself in the besrposition possible to end a
more troubling
slide.
Schrader; winless on the Winston
Cup circuit since 1991 , won his first
pole .in two years Friday at New
. Hampshire lnlemational Speedway,
leading qualifiers for Sunday's Jiffy
Lube 300 with a record 129.423 mph
lap .
. Driving a Chevy Monte Carlo he
hadn't run this year, the Skoal Bandit team newcomer won his I 9th
career pi&gt;le, breaking the mark of
129.379 set last year by Ricky
Craven on the 1.058-mile oval.
"They ran it here last year and
said they' ve had some of their best
finishes with it," Schrader said.
"I've been wondering why we
haven't run it. but it looks like it's a
good one. It· was good right off the
trailer."
Schrader, who has only two top10 finishes this year, has started in
the top 10 in alf five of his appear- ·
ances at the track. He ended a 65·

far

I

race pole drought dating to June 9,
1995 at Pocono, Pa.
"We've got finishes that haven ' t
been real impressive, but I think if
anybody has been watching TV the
last four or five weeks, they've seen
this Skoal team is ready to go,"
Schrader said.
·
The four·time Winston Cup race
winner finished sixth five weeks ago
in the Miller 500, but since t~n the
best he has managed is a 15th-place
finish last week in the Pepsi 400.·
. "Our expectations .are to gel a
top-five finish t~ help solidify this
team," owner-crew chief Andy

Petree said. "Our hopes are to win
the race obviously, but we expect to
run in the top five and finish in the
top five."

Bobby Hamilton was second in
129.375·, and Craven · third in
129.274. Last year's winner, Ernie
.Irvan, qualified lith, while series
leader Jeff Gordon failed to qualify
on the first day for the first time this
season.
"This was a . pretty typical
Loudon qualifying effort for me,"
said Gordon, who had a lap of
127.786 mph. "I can run real fast in
the race and real fast in practice, but
I can't qualify.

While the overall picture shows
big gaps still remain, the analysis
found that notable progress in the
push to provide comparable athletic
opportunity has :been made.
For e&gt;ample, eight schools,
including three from the Pacific 10
Conference, have increased female
athletic participation so much that
the schools meet proportionality
standards set by the federal government - something once long
thought to be impossible because of
the impact of 100-member or more
football rosters.
Those schools, within the accepted 5 percent limits of equality, are
Washington, Washington State, Virginia Tech, Kansas, Georgia Tech,
Utah, Stanford and Vanderbilt.

I couldn't get into them," Lopez
said. "And that really made me mad.
I said, 'I've had enough. I've got to
do something."'
She began working out and
watching her diet. She's lost 39
pounds and says she is feeling better than she has in years.
.
"I feel like my game is the best
it's been at a U.S. Open for a
while," Lopez said. "l'm..riding on
confidence and the way that I'm
swinging right now."
On the par-4 16th, Lopez knocked
a 4-iron within I0 feet of the cup,
then made it for a birdie. Then she
hit a 7-iron within I0 feet for birdie
on the 17th.
On the par-5 18th; she hit a tricky .
57-yard wedge to within five feet. As
she walked to the green, the big
crowd erupted.
"You ~et a few chills up and
down your spine," Lopez said.
Nicholas had long since finished
her round, having gotten upat5 a.m.
to make her early tee time.
''I' m not good in the mornings, so
I really had to shake myself," she
said. "I was very quiet for ahout an
hour after I got up, because I couldn't cope with talking to anyone."
The two-lime LPGA winner
cleared out the early-morning cobwebs in a hurry, with birdies on the
first, fourth and fifth holes, and
another on No. 15. She capped her
birdie spree by rolling in a 25-footer on NQ. 16.
·
Neumann, meanwhile, admitted
that nerves may have gotten to her.
"I know whai it takes to win and
I know how imponant this event is,"
said Neumann, who won the 1988
Open. "But I guess it's pretty normal
io be a little nervous when you get
into that position."
The Swede had live birdies in the
first I0 holes and.was cruising along
at S-under before an ugly tee shot on
No. 16triggered her collapse, as she
linished her round with three consecutive bogeys.
. .
"I just sort of let one bad swing
get to me today," she said, "and it
feels pretty disappointing right

~ir departments can't afford to just
simply add women's programs to
achieve gender equity. On average,
~chools arc spending close to
$70,000 per male basketball player
and $30,000 per football player
combined compilred to les~ than

Specifically, here is what the
analysis, based on federally mandated spending reports from 107 of
the 110 members of NCAA Division
1:A, found:
- Despite adding spons and
increasing the number of participation opportunities for women, the·
average Division 1-A school still
remains out of.compliance with U.S.
Department of Education proportionality standards based on undergraduate enrollment.
Under those regulations, a school
is considered in compliance with
federal law when the percentage of
female athletes is comparable to the
percentage of undergraduate women
enrolled at'the school.
Figures provided by the reports
show that there is an average 16 percent gap between the numbers of
women participating in sports compared to the numbers of women
enrolled at the average NCAA mem. ber school.ln addition, 28 of the 107
schools reported having at least a 20
percent difference between women's
sports participation and undergradu-

GALLIPOLIS -

Gallipolis has

sone tbrougb many architectural peri-

ods in its long history.
The oldest homes in town are
brick and clapboard. For instance,
· near the.comer of First and State are
several oldbomcs. 'The Bureau bouse
on the corner dates back to I8 I I. The
Our House was built in 1819 and the
Wanh house in 1824. Both of these
.house~ are brick.
By the same token, the Devacht
building (about 1811) and the Eagle
Tavern (I 809) have used wooden siding for nearly two centuries. 'The early brick homes were made from
bricks that were burned in the vicinity of Pine Street, the town's first
brickyard.
Later brickyards were built on
what is now Memorial Field and on
the old golf course property. Doctor
Mandel and 1ohn Gee owned-brickyards on Fourth Avenue. The early.
bricks were made by hand, with a
brick-malcing machine making an
appearance following the Civil War.
Such machines could tum out several thousand bricks. per day. Brick
remained more popular than wood

.

here into the 1880s . .But from about
1885 to 1900 more Gallipolis homes
were being made with wooden siding
than with brick as the Queen Anne
style and other Victorian scyles- of
wooden architecture became more
popular in town.
However, in the fir.;t decade of
this century, several structures in Gallipolis were built of anificial stone.
The old Kraus house at the corner of
Second and Vine was one of the first
ones, it being erected in 190(. The
addition to Dr. Gustav Mack's office
in the 200 block of1birdAvenue was
made of artificial stone, as was a
house in the 500 block of 1bird
Avenue. There is also a house in
Kanauga on State Route 1 made of
artificial stone. In addition, severl!)
garages and warehouses were made
of this material.
Artificial stone was made in Gallipolis by James Betz. His factory
was near Sycamore Street and Second Avenue. Artificial stone was
made from cement and sand, using·a
patented process. The finished product looked like sione.
·
The developer of the patent franchised his patent process to local con-

tractors and helPed them with publicity. Some builden claimed that
structures made with artificial stone
were superior to brick. Owing to the
peculiar ventilating system used in
the manufacturing of the artifiCial
stone, the firtished product was drier
than either brick or natural stone.
Anificial stone also was easier to heat
and it was much cheaper than ·either
brick or natural stone.
Stated one ad: "Impervious to heat
9r frost, hardening by exposure to the
weather,never shrinlcing, cracking or
warping, it is the best substance ever
discovered for fire walls, and is the
ideal building material, both for
houses, and for foundations, chimneys, sustaining .walls, colonial"
columns, trimmings and many other
purposes."
Betz 's artificial stone-malcing
machine could tum out ahout 300
square feet of anificial stone a !lay,
but artificial stone never caught on.
Perhaps the unpopularity of cement
houses was caused by the fear of concrete, a fear that was produced in Gallipolis when the dam built by the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers at Eureka
(Darn 26) collapsed ahout 1912. The

week with friends visiting friends on
a weatber-perfeet night, I heard a story which ·1 really can't swear to the
Bible on. As the story goes, a 40-passenger cruise boat will be docking at
Pomeroy late in July and passengers
will disembark to sightsee and shop ··
in Pomeroy. I(\ case the story is true,
seems like a good time to get the
crafts tlooe by numerous residents
ready for display.
'The appearance of the Communiversity Band in Pomeroy was made
possible by Peoples Banlc. with Maxine Griffith, a bank employee, introducing the band program to the audience.
And Vaughin's Supermarket in
Middleport appears to have talc.en on
an ambitious project, and you're
invited to be a part of it.
0~ Saturday, July 26, the market's
owners and employees will be staging a party at the Middleport Pool
which has reopened following extensive repair.;. There will be a cookout
and party is open to the public free of
charge.
C'mon, how can you say no to a
deal like that?

GETI'YSBURG, Pa. - Two locl!l
residents attended the July I burial of
an unknown Civil War soldier at Gettysburg.
Keith and Emma Ashley of Rock
Springs made the trip as representatives of the Sons of Union Veterans,
tbe SUV Auxiliary and Daughter.; of
Union Veterans of the Civil War. ·
The event was sponsored by the
U.S. Park Service. A visiting park
ranger discovered the remains of soldier in a little-visited area of the
National Battlefield, arid no archaeological evidence could be located to
determine whether the soldier fought .
for the Union or the Confederacy.
The celebration began at 1 a.m. at
the site of Confederate Gen. Robert
E. Lee's headquarters. Flags of hoth
sides were raised.
After the flag raising, the Ashleys
were part of a I50-member breakfast
group. Present at the breakfast was
one of two remaining Union widows,
Mrs. Daisy Ander.;on, 97, of Colorado, and the last Confederate widow, Mr.;. Alberta Martin, 90, of
Alabama.
In the · afternoon, the U.S. Park
Se..Vice arranged to have the two ·
widows present at the· rock wall

'"It caught my interest. It was an

and try to write this novel, I would
regret it," he said. "I wanted to write

Frazier was unable to learn much
more ahout his great-great-uncle or
his great-great-grandfather Inman,
also a Civil War veteran, so he
Invented a life for Inman that inCluded some of his relatives' experiences.
For that reason, he kept the Inman

I somehow had the impression
that about everyone loved band concerts, and consequently, I was disappointed by the number of residents on
hand for the Thursday evening concert by Ohio University's Communiversil)' Band on Court Street in
Pomeroy.
Certainly the couple of hundred
people on hand were an appreciative
audience for the varied, but not
heavy, program of band music. In
fact, they gave the band a welldeserved standing ovation at the
closed of tbe concert. Among my
favorite selections were "Rhapsody in
Blue," Glenn Mille(s "In the Mood"
and the ageless but rousing "Stars and
Stripes Forever."
If you missed the Thursday night
outing, then you ·missed a pleasant
evening- and it was completely free
of charge yet.
·
The Pomeroy Merchants Association served tall cups oflemonade for
free and the associatio~ also sponsored an "Art in the Park" show. I'm
impressed by the quality of art work
that I noted in the m)ni-park. I wasn't really quite aware that we have
I·'""" talented artists in our- midst."
There were some very traditional
pieces as well as some .more modem
things, and all very attractively displayed. I liked the_touch of aged
Pomeroy street signs accenting each
exhibitor's worlc..
Ron McDade, Gallipolis, who is
the Meigs County economic develoJler these days, was among those in
attendance. Ron had a goal of attending three Meigs County events on
Thursday, but ran out of time and just
got to two of 'em. By the way, I think
you, can expect a major announcement dealing with education to be
forthcoming from Ron and some of
his associates in the near future.

truth, ·the show probably has a
greater relationship to Hollywood

E! also has done well lately with

like its "True Hollywood Stories."
Masters was astounded at the ratings
for a two-hour profile of Betty Page,
a pin-up model from the 1950s who
he suspected would be too obscure
to draw an audience.
More of these type of shows are
in the works; just this week, for
exam pi~ , a celebrity profile of Tom
Hanks premiered.
Eventually, Masters hopes
enough profiles are produced to
make them a regular pan of the
schedule and phase out the reruns of
3~11
old series.
That's cenainly possible, since
the company has committed to
increasing its budget for original
programming by more than 40 per·
cent over the nc&lt;ttwo years.
The strategy comes back,
inevitably, to Masters' Channel
