Addressing the aggravating believe he stqps breathing for sever- factors, such as a weight problem or alcohol use, may resolve the situation. On the other hand, your husband may need surgery to remove the flaccid tissue that causes his snoring. As you suspect, sleep apnea is a potentially dangerous situation because it can lead to cardiac irregularities, even death. Therefore, your husband should not delay seeking help. To give you more information, I am sending you a free copy of my Health Report "Sleep/Wake Disorders." Other readers who would like a copy should send $2 plus a long, self-addressed, stamped envelope to P.O. Box 2017, Murray Hill Station, New York, NY 10156. Be sure to mention the title. . DEA~ DR.

What do you think and suggest in my case? · DEAR READER: Sex change operations require an enormous amount of preparation. The operation itself is considered by many to be the least troublesome aspect of genderreorientation. Patien!S wbo desire such surgery should undergo extensive counseling (because gender modification is clearly not the answer to many cases of depression and general dissatisfaction); in conjunction with hormone ll'eatments to prepare the body for the actual change (and · to maintain desired secorldary sex characteristics). . Before embarking on a course of action thet will not only cha~ge your life but the lives of those around you, you should place yourself under the care of a sensitive physician or surgeon who is familiar with gender modification and has an appropriate support staff. · · You have 'much work to do, I'm afraid. I think that you should carefully and objectively consider all the issues, with the help of qualified professionals. Copyright 1995 NEWSPAPER ENTERI,"RISE ASSN.

' : Patricia IIJgram, 4~. pleaded guilty to obstruction of ·justice, a felciny of the fourth degree, for allowing Jamie Ford, 22, ~!pre, and Brian Lynch, 20, Little Hocking to remain at her ~orne after they confessed to her that they had committed' the Coolville robbery. Athens County Commcin Pleas Judge L. Alan Ooidsberry granted a prosecution request to dismiss seven ·other charges against ingram. The charges that were dismissed included counts of conspiracy and complicity to robbery and kidnapping, and an additional obstruction The Middleport Literary Club held its first meeting of the new year at . Pomeroy Library with Mrs. Dwight Wallace as hostess. President Jeanette Thoma• opened. the proceedings 'with the Club Collect and chaired the annual business meeting. The secretary read the minutes of the last December m~eting and the treasurer, the financial report.'Both were approved. · The nominating committee, composed of Betsy Parsons. Pauline Horton and Faye Wallace, prop,osed the following :. Martha Hoover and Jeanne Bowen as president and vicepresident respectively; secretary, Sis.ter Fidclis and lrfasurer, Pauline Horton to retain tlieir positions for · another year. As there were no additional nominations, Sara Owen made a·motion that these be accepted; Maxinc Gaskill seconded the motion. Before the review, several ladies shared interesting experiences that · occurred over the holidays. Finally, Ida Diehl ' introduced her report on Ladder of Years by Anne Tyler. Mrs. Diehl stated that while this modem work was pun: fiction, many of the si-tuations n:Hected real life. This is the thirteenth novel by the popular author and is considered by some critics as the mostlieguiling although she did recieve a Pulitzer Prize for an· earlier work, Breathing Lesson. . The story could appeal to many a " person's secret fantasy. Delia Gri'nstead, who as a teenager married her physician-father's assistant, had little opponuniry to develop a life of her own. At the age of 40 with tluee,' almost-grown children, she begins to . feel a deep restlessness, as the : reviewer told the story, and on a sudden impulse walks away from her marriage, . hitches a ride into the unknown and invents a new life in a strange, little town. She broods over old hurts and is not helped by a hus..: hand wbo seems unable to e~press hiS: feelings. 1\{rs. Diehl with her storytelling ability narrated the adventures, the changed responsibilities, and the new people in Delia's life. One of the new people, an old man named Nat, commented to Delia that life is a "ladder of years". This phrase became the title of the book and it seems that one must climb that ladder with the '.lulhor to find the final resolution. Delia's explanation was· that she became "unintentionally separated and couldn't find a way back," Mrs. Diehl concluded. Je~nn.e Bowen's mother, Regina ' Mizemi:y, was a visitor from Toledo' and participated with the iwelve members in the lively discussion . which followed tile book review: Wen: Delia's thoughts and actions · understandable?

They later abandoned the vehicle and picked up their own vehicle, which was parked just outside of town . The two men continued to stay with Ingram for a few days, during which time they confessed the robbery to Ingram and said the money was hidden outside in the doghouse, Huff stated. The two suspects then Hed to North Carolina in a truck they purchased, where they rented a storage unit to hide the stolen money.

''The state always takes a gamble when they rely on testimony from accomplices in crimes such as this," he added. "We just felt that the complicity was the sure charge, and the evidence was insufficient to warrant a conviction beyond a reasonable doubt on any of the, other charges."

The district's dropout rate has climbed to 54.2 ptrcent, up from 44.4 ' percent a year ago. The rate was calculated by comparing the numberof students who started high school in the district four years ago with how many attended their senior year in Cincinnati or elsewhere. "This is bad news, it's horrible," Superintendent J. , Michael Brandt said Friday. Many students found themselves unable to perform in a system that raised educational standards and addtd.a proficiency test necessary for · graduation, said Kathleen Ware, director of quality improvement for the district. Last year, nearly 40 percent of eighth- and ninth-graders were held back for failing to meet standards. After being held bacli: and then failing the .state-mandated ninth-grade proficiency exam, many give up on school: "We·have to find different ways to teach them," Mrs. Ware said. "We've got to find ways to work with social service agencies and address the things that affect their learning and even impede their.coming to school." That includes marriage, pregnancy, alcohol and·drug abuse, and other problems the district cannot control, Brandt said. ROCK SPRINGS~ Edward Durst was electecfpresident of tho!

Blllltlln WASHINGTON-- President Clinton left out on~funcomfonable detail in his stirring tribute to Adm. Arleigh A Burke, the father of the modem Navy, who dJed earlier this month. As we were the first to report, Burke's office was once burglarized by the administration of Clinton's boyhood hero -- Presulent John F Kennedy. W1th 2,000 mourners gathered at the largest military funeral in more thlm a decade, Clinton spoke movingly about how Burke "stood watch over our freedom for more than four decades." The pres1dent recounted how Burke earned his nickname -- "31-Knot Burke"-- by pushing his division of sh1ps to 1ts speed 'limits during World War ll, fightmg an amazing 22 battles With the Japanese fleet in just four months. After the war, Clinton added, Burke served·a record three terms as chief of •naval operations from 1955 to, 1961 . In that post, he was credited with speeding up production of nuclear-powered s4bmarines, developmg the Navy 's abtlity to fight at night and bringing guided m1ssiles into widespread use. He won 13 medals, mcludmg the Navy Cross for bravery and the President1al Medal of Freedom in 1977. "Every hfe is a lesson, but his hfe particularly so," Clmton said. "For in 94 years on this earth, at sea and on land, Arle1gh Burke gave nothing less than everything he had for h1s chenshed Navy and beloved country." Clinton failed to mention, however. that Burke's country returned the favor by nfhng through h1s private files in 1963 As we reported in 1977, Burke believed that government gumshoes broke mto h1s private office and stole important personal documents that later turned up m a secret file of the Nav~l Investigative Serv1ce Included in the papers was a raw transcnpt of an interv1ew that Burke had granted to Greek reporter Ehas Demetracopoulos in August 1963. At the time, Burke w'as the Cohn Powell of h1s day: The retired admiral was emergmg as the most articulate conservat1 ve en be of the Kennedy admimstration 's military policies, and many Republicans were urgmg Burke to run for the 1964 GOP presidential nomination. issue in 1964. Burke was a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the invasion, and he had sevet81 heated arguments with Kennedy about how to •.: handle the mess. . , Only Burke, hiS secretary and Demetracopoulos knew of the mterview ." before it was published m October 1963. And none of them released the raw transcript, which ~as edited in Burke's own handwriting. It was a copy of·· ' this raw transcnpt, complete w•th Burke's handwntten remarks, that myste-•· " nously turned up in the Navy file . 1., Demetracopoulos learned about the Navy file by sending a routine Free- ··-· dom of Information request to the government. The journalist said he had only rece1ved a ".clean" copy from Burke and had not seen the version with•" the hand-wntten corrections ; ,,.) After conferring with his lawyer, Burke said: "Regretfully, the only con:· -~ clus1on we reached is that ... an unauthorized and illegal entry took place at my private office" at a think tank 10 Georgetown. 1JI The Senate Intelligence Committee investigated the inctdent, but its find.ll~ ings were never released. Conservatives have charged that the Kennedy team was desperately trying 10 find out if Burke was planning a run for the Whit~( 1 House. The purpose of the break-m, they charge, was to learn what verbal misstles Burke planned to launch during his campaign. . .. . At Burke's 'funeral, Clinton sat next to the admiral's 97-year-old wife; ~ Roberta. The service was held at the same chapel in Annapolis, Md., where" the Burkes had married on the day of his Naval Academy graduation •72 years ago.

Given the early hour, Clinton joked, "I may be more pleased to see you than you are to see me." Many of the soldiers held their children aloft on their soldiers to see the presideni, who wore a brown jacket bearing the 31st fighter wing emblem. Aviano was the first stop in a 19hour swing that takes Clinton to Tuzla, the headquarters of American . forces in Bosnia. He'll also visit Taszar, Hungary, the gateway for support equipment and forces going into the former Yugoslavia, and Zagreb, Croatia, before turning home early Sunday. Despite congressional opposition to sending troops to Bosnia, a I0member bipartisan congressional delegation accompanied Clinton. Clinton acknowledged the soldiers' sacrifices. "You are heroes for peace," he said. "Our nation is very proud of you," Earlier, Clinton addressed the'peopie of Bosnia in a videotaped message. He acknowledged the lingering bitterness after nearly four years of savage ethnic warfare and said, "After so many lives lost and futures destroyed, I know that rebuilding a ·sense of community and trust may be the very hardest task you face." · In S:arsjevo, Zlatan Pasic, a 32year-old salesman, watched Clinton's speech on the main evening television news broadcast.

' ' By .BARR'( WILNER · ·· · · PITrSBORGH (AP) - The Pittsburgh Steelers sot C,!ll'elrss and lost the kind •of opportunity that SC)metimes never comes again. Well, it has come again, and the Steelers say thCy're ready this time. A-.."ljear ago, the underdog San Diego Ch111Jers came to Th(ee Rivers Stadium and snatched the AFC championship away from a city and a team that thought it already was gift-wrapped. The Steelers' first Super Bowl benb since the dynasty of the 1970s escaped. For 12 months, they lived with the memory. to:Jay, they get a chance to erase it against another underdog, the Indianapolis Colts. Success means a date with the NFC champion in Tempe, Ariz., in two weeks. Failure means another year of self-examination and heightened doubt "This whole off-season, it was instilled in the back of my head that almost geuing there wasn't good enough, and that anything short of a championship would be, in my boo~ ·unsatisfactory," Steelers tackle Leon Searcy said. "I can't speak for anyone on this team but myself. It would be very unsatisfactory for me ... if we don't come away with a cbampionlbip." r!ttsburgh setmed clearly to be the best teani in. the AFC in 1994. But the Steelers allowed themselVes to get distracted. They made a rap video about going to' the Super Bowl. They celebrated too heartily after a second-round win over Cleveland. Agents were everywhere. Off-field business intruded on their time. · And now? "We're a lot more serious about it," fullback John L. Williams' said. "There is nothing unrelated to football. Th~re is no rap video or nothing. " Instead, there is a togetherness born of disappointment And there is a sense of purpose created by last January 's near-miss. "We've all been there before and we know what all tbe hype is," quarterback Neil O'Donnell said. "This year, our team is moR of a team. It's not offense and defense, it's really a close-knit group. Last year, at times, it wasn't." Not only weren't the Steelers together, they lacked offensive balance. When forced \O the passing game, they were indecisive and sometimes impotent. The defense could batter.an opponent, the specialteams .could be, well, special, but if the offense couldn't ram the ball down enemy throats, it often struggled. So while the camaraderie issue was helped wben the aloof Barry Foster and the selfish Eric Green departed, that also led to an open-. ing up of the offense. With O'Donnell having a fine season and receivers Yancey Thigpen, Ernie Mills, Andre Hastings and newcomer Kardell Stewart unleashed, Pittsburgh suddenly is an air force. "We've been able to win some garnes in the 3Qs," head coach Bill Cowher said. "A year ago, if it was in the 20s, it was high-scoring. "I think the team responded. If it's a highscoring game, we can play that kind of game. We're winning in all three phases and it has created a united football team." The Steelers will present that united front against a team th~t has stunned its city and fans - and the rest of the football world. While the Steelers were winning eight straight games to capture the AFC Central crown, the Colts squeezed into the playoffs as a wild card on the final weekend. Then they went to San Diego and knocked offthe defending conference champions . Not satisfied, they headed to Kl)llsas City. where the Chiefs were the only undefeated home team in the NFL. · Indy won . "I think for an entire year, we've been getting together and were better than the (9-7) record we had," said linebacker Tony Bennett, the Colts ' main pass-rusher (10 112 sacks). "We felt good coming into the season, becauJe we came together as a team. We l)lolded ourselves in the shape and form we wanted." That form has needed some revision on offense throughout the year. While the defense remained a constant, there was nux on the other side of the ball . Incumbent quarterback Jim Harbaugh began the season as a backup. He was elevated only after Craig Erickson, acquired from Tampa Bay, struggled and Harbaugh was sensational in relief. Placekicker Mike Cofer missed too many field goals and was cut, with Cary Blanchard coming in. Blanchard kicked a game-winner against Miami in hi's first appearance, then made all four tries in an upset of San FranCISCO. The offensive line also was shuffled. Bua the biggest adjustment carne in the backfield when star runner Marshall Faulk went down with a knee injury that will keep him out today. , First, Lamont Warren ran for 90 yards and caught six pa,<ses for 67 more in a wild-card clincher over New England in the season finale. Then rookie Zack Crockeu, with no yards gained on his NFL resume, rushed for 147 yards and two touchdowns against the Chargers. Warren followed that with 96 yards rushing at Kansas City. "I knew we could do it," Warren said. "It was a challenge to determine what kind of player I am." · What kind of team are the Colts? One of destiny? Or just an interloper that will be dispatched today? The Steelers say they know better than to treat them like the latter. Cowboys to face confident & upset-minded Packers w• .... .

The Boilermakets only other loss w'lls to Memphis, ranked No. 12 at the time, and they haven't lost in the conference since an 82-73 setback at Indiana on Feb. 2, 1995 . Austin, a sophomore, set his previous scoring best of 20 on Dec. I ·against Illinois-Chicago. He had 14 · in the ftrst half, and hit 8-of-12 shots and all eight of hidree throws. Roy Hairston was the only other Purdue player in double figures with 12 points. Sam Jacobson led Minnesota with 15 points, while Bobby Jackson had 13 and Quincy Lewis had 12. including II straight early in t)le second half. Trailing 30-29 at halftime, Purdue took control of the game with defense and foul shooting in the second half. The Boilermakers scored nine points on free throws in a 12-5 Irun that led to a 5~8 edge with 7:24 remaining. . They followed with a 9-2 surge, capped by .Justin Jennings' threepoint play to take their biggest lead, 65-50, with 5:06 to play. In a sloppy first half for both teams, Minnesota went7:28 without a basket in one stretch and trailed 2111 when Purdue's Porter Roberts hit a three:pointer with 7:34 to go before halftime. But a pair of three-poinrers by . Jackson started the Gophers on a 142 run, capped by Jacobson's 11-foot jumper from the right wing for a 2523 lead with 3:54 left before half- , time.

Wayne Simmons, a first-round draft pick in 1993, moved into Paup's spot after being injured for most of his first two seasons and played steadily if not as spectacularly as Paup, whose forte is rushing the passer. And, Favre earned the l~gue 's MVP award by tossing the ball to everyone instead of just Sharpe - 38 touchdown passes, third all-time behind Dan Marino's 48 touchdowns in 1984 and 44 in 1986. All this was good enough to give them their first ' NFC Central title since 1972. They beat the Atlanta Falcons, winning '37-20 at Lambeau Field. Then they went to San Francisco and shocked the defending champions 49ers,jumping off to a 21-0 lead and cruising home. Favre was 15 of 17 for 222 yards in the first half and defensive coordinator Fritz Shurmur's schemes completely befuddled the 49ers. The Cowboys are another matter, as the Packers know well. For while the Niners' running game didn'·t scare the Packers, allowing them to drop six and seven men back ·in coverage, the Cowboys have Smith, the game's most productive running back. "I don't think they can 4o the same thing to us as they did to San Francisco, not as long as Emmitt's in the game," says Barry Switzer, who himself is ~k­ ing to eclipse the $hadow of two-time Super Bowl win" , ner Jimmy Johnson despite a 28-8 regular-season record in two seasons.

Switzer's coaching, criticifcd all season, remains in question. · • .., ;. . A For Green Bay to win, most feel Favre must continue his hot streak - on one play against San Francisco, he slipped to the turf, got up-and completed a 28yard pass to Keith Jackson . And Holmgren, Shurmur and the rest of the Green Bay staff must outcoach Switzer and his staff. And who knows whether experience will win QUI over the desire of so many good players, led by White, who have never been this far? · The two Packers with Super Bowl rings are backup quarterback Jim McMahon (Chicago Bears '85) and wide receiver Mark Ingram (New York Giants '90). Linebacker Fred Strickland (Los Angeles Rams '89) and Jackson and guard Harry Galbreath (Miami Dol-• phins '92) are the only other Packers who have even been this far. Charles Haley, the Dallas defensive end who may return today for pass-rushing duties after a back operation, has four Super Bowl rings by himself. Two came with San Francisco and two with the Cowboys in 199293. If tbe Packers are a different team, so are the Cowboys.

It goes beyond a locker-room atmosphere lhat couldn't be more businesslike if there were desks in front of every locker, or a to-a-man refusal to analyze lhe numerous errors of lheir ways of a January ago. These Steelers have had it up to here wilh talk about lhree more yards or rap videos. They insist lhey are a more mature, more focused team than the one that allowed lhe San Diego Chargers.to steal into their sta· dium and swipe away lasr season's AFC championship. Maybe here's lhe key: Not a single Steeler has even hinted at pre· dieting lhe score of Sunday's AFC championship game against lhe Indianapolis Colts. "There will be n-o-o-o·o predictions. I'm not in the predicting business," said defensive end Ray Seals, whose inadvertent prophecy of a Steelers shutout so incurred the Chargers' wralh. The tangible differences in these Steelers from last season's are appar· ent,IIJI(i lhey go well beyond the blue pinstripe-suit mentality in their clubhouse, the retooling of the former Blitzburgb defense and an offensive transition from run to pass. The intangibles are not so visible, yet lhey reveal why these Steelers may actually be a better ieam even without All-Pro cornerback Rod Woodson - lhan lhe one lhat deflated an entire city last season. Among them: -Bill Cowher has done perhaps his best coaching job by keepmg together a team that could have gone in either direction when the Steelers were 3-4. They have since lost only once in 10 games. and they would have won that if Yancey Thigpen _hadn't dropped a sure touchdown pass Dec. 24 in Green Bay. "It's a different team, and !like the makings of it," Cowher ~aid. - Carnell Lake sacrificed a pas· sible repeat trip to the Pro Bowl he made it anyway - with a mid· season move from strong safety to cornerback to replace lhe injured Woodson. It was an unusual switch for someone who was a rusb linebacker in college, but Lake's unselfishness proved the missing piece to lhe Steelers' defensive puzzle. - A previously unremarkable group of receivers has become one of the league's best; Thigpen set a team single-season receiving record, and Ernie Mills took advantage of single coverage to make eight touchdown catches. No longer are the Steelers onedimensional offensively. They sco~ed nearly 100 more points this . season than last, and a passing offense that was No. 23 last season vaulted to No. 8. By contrast, a full back - John L. Williams - was their top receiver last season. "Obviously, the offense is more nexible and is better equipped to play the type of game lhat unfolds in the pla~offs." Cowher said. "We wanted to create balance on offense. A year ago, we didn't have that. We were running the football, but we were not very efficient throwing the football. '' And, as Mills said, "When you can throw lhe ball, you never feel like you're out of a game." - Erric Pegram and Bam Morris shared the same running back position not only without dissent, but with a genuine respect for each oth· er. Pegram said, "If I'm a coach and Bam 's on a roll, I keep giving him the ball. If you're an athlete. you always think you can be the guy, but this ·is about team." The rotaJion has worked. The Steelers have had four. I00-yard rushers in their last six games, three by Morris and one by Pegram. -They refused to get caught up in several potentially huge distractions, including Woodson's injury and the death of Seals' cousin, lonny Gammage, during an early-morning police stop. The Gammage case has ·'drawn national attention, but ,Seals· professionalism in keeping lhe issue separate from football has earned him considerable respect from his fellow players. "I don 't know if I could have han!fled it as well as Ray has," tackle Leon Searcy said. The Gammage case is indicative of why lhe Steelers' ability not only to survive but lhrive during Ibis potentially disruptive season probably makes them better suited for the inordinate pressure of another championship game. And, perhaps, !he Super Bowl to follow. "I have a good feeling about Ibis team and I think we all do," fullback John L. Williams said. " There wasn't much emotion last week after we beat Buffalo. We've stayed serious. We recognize the opportunity we have. We recognize what's ahead." • ... _,allot · base~ll and went through a full trammg camp with quarterback Troy Aikman, Switzer said. "Hewouldprobablybeoneoflhe · \ greatest receivers ever to play the ·. game, " Switzer said. "He's got unbelievable skills and unbelievable talent," Aibnan &g!Ced. "!feel personally that he could play wide receiver and he could be a very good one. "To say that he could be lhe best that's ever played. I don 't know about that. "But he cenainly is an outstand· ing defensive back. That's what he was brought in bere for. But because he's such an exceptional talent, you ·want to get the ball into his hands and let him create things." Packers split end Anthony Morgan said be and his teammates aren't anxious about facing Sanders. On offense, Favre, lhe league's MVP after throwing an NFC-record 38 !~~:~chll_owns, acknowledged that l'lhe Packers might go away from ·sanders out of respect for him. But the defense won't do anylhing different against Sanders the .receiver, strong safety LeRoy Buder ;said. "We don't worry about Deion," Butler said. "If lhey wantto split him out and take Kevin Williams off lhe · field, that's fine. We ain't even wor: ried about that. We're just going to . play solid defense, regardless of 't wbo'they put on lhe field." But Morgan said Sanders is unde· lniably tbe game's most exciting player. 'Til tell you what, when be touches lhe ball, I mean he 's so fast and so explosive and he can really get his teammates involved," Morgao said. "He might do a little dance. He might do a little jumping up. _ "It's about plugging up a'.'d le~ ; tmg everybody feel the electncny. ally," Johnson said. "I told him we year, getting ready for the big game, the Super Bowl, so he obviously could work side by side committing we •ve got to be able to run lhe ball likes lheir talent. better."

UNIVERSITY . ' By JOHN WISSE Dlvlalon of WlldiHe COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) ~ Higher fur prices have led to renewed interest in bJ:aver trapping in Ohio. the Division of Wildlife said. Current prices for prime-quality pelts range from $28 to $70, compared with last year's average of $12.80. Russia and China have entered the world fur trade and an European Economic Community ban on cer· lain North American fur pelts has been postponed. Ohio ranks among the top three fur industry states with an estimated 60,000 people involved in some aspect of the fur trade. Ohio's 200 fur dealers last year reported $750,000 in pelt sales. The beaver trapping season in . Ohio·s opens Saturday in the area north of Intersiate 70. Beaver trapping season south of I· 70 opened Dec. 30. Both seasons close Feb. 29. There is no limit on how many beavers may be taken by trappers. "We expect to see this year's trap- · ping harvest increase form last year's ' total of 3,300 beavers. This is due largely to the increase in prices paid for pelts and an increased beaver abundance in Ohio," said Gilda Tori, supervisor of the wildlife agency's Crane Creek Research Station in Oak Harbor. While most beavers are found in eastern Ohio, their migration continues to slowly spread into western Ohio. Ohio 's beaver population peaked .

A record 12,000 deer, a 20% increase over the 1995 total, were taking during the three-day season. The new mark exceeded the previous record (10,396) set in 1994. Deer could be killed either with crossbows, longbows, muzzleloading rines of at least .38 caliber or wider or muzzleloading shotguns firing a single ball. Athens County was among the top 10 harvest areas with 381, which made it fifth in the state. Guernsey County (Cambridge) led with 702. Meigs County saw hunters bring in 326 deer, 41 more than in 1995 and 24 more than in 1994. Gallia Coun· ty saw hunters take 311 deer, 18 fewer than in 1994 and seven fewer than in 1994. Other neighboring counties' cur· rent harvests run as follows: Jackson (257), Lawrence (185) and Vinton ( 187). Reloaders NEWTOWN, Ct. (AP) - More than 6 million shooters now, are reloading their own ammunition, according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation. More than one-third of hunters reload, according to a recent NSSF survey. The main reason for reloading was to save money. Shooters can save about 50 percent of the cost of their ammunition by reloading used cartridges. But many reloaders make their own ammunition for a specific pur· pose, such as a cartridge with a lighter or heavier bullet or a bigger powder load. -- Camping in the cool zones RESTON. Va.

Severe in the West; mild in the East. Severe in the East; mild in the West. It's a fairly typical pattern: When one side of the counuy gets snowed in, the other gets dried out. This year, the East is·getting whomped. And in the drier-than-usual West, where communities rely on winter snow for summer water,. that means weather envy. Blame it on the jet stream -the river of air currents, up around 30,000 feet, that helps steer the chilled air down from Canada during the winter months. This winter; at least so far, the jet stream is driving most of that cold air eastward. That weather pattern makes for lower-than-usual temperatures in the East And when the chilled Canadian air collides with moisture moving in from the Atlantic or up from the Gulf of Mexico, as it did \his week, it makes for snow. In the West, the same pattern brings higher-thanusual temperatures. And any precipitation tends to be rain. Predic/ing such patterns is one of the most difficult parts of forecasting. Meteorologists have little understanding of the myriad factors that can cause the jet stream to move.

A nasty fall on icy pavement can lead to an even nastier lawsuit. Clean gutters. Snow and ice can build up pretty quickly. especially if your gutters are clogged with leaves. When thawing begins, the water has nowhere to drain and can back up under your roof and eaves, causing wall and ceiling damage. Consider buyinJ screening to keep your gutters debris-free or installini heating cables along the gutter to prevent such buildup. Check your homeowners insurance policy to make sure coverage is adequate for the type of winter weather in your area. After a winter-relatc!d loss can sometimes be too late . . Make sure auxiliary heaters and fireplaces are ade• quately maintained and serviced. Many fires related tD auxiliary heating sources are preventable through simple maintenance. Before inslalling a wood-bumina stove, check with local fire officials as to codes and proper installation techniques.

Motonsu sbolild .lie . ;aware of the challenges and techniques of handling a ·car i.n the snow. lmponant to controllidg a car, especially on ice, is the understanding that the brake pe®l, the gas pedal and the steering wheel all control weight transfer. Simplistically speaking, the brake pedal transfers weight to the front wheels, the gas pedal transfers weight to the rear wheels and the steering wheel transfers weight · from side to side. To prevent or stop a .car from skidding, the driver needs to use these controls to do one thing: equalize the sizes of the contact patches on all four tires. Keeping that image in mind automatically moderates any tendency to oven:orteet with the steering, to stab at the brakes, or to jump on the throttle. 1be front wheels steer, so an understeering car, or front-wheel-drive, may need more weight there. An oversteering car, or rear-wheel-drive, in an incipient spin out may be saved with a little application of power. (Remember weight moves rearward under acceleration, forward under braking, and side to side with steering.) Another critical point is understanding that use of the brakes can cause more accidents than it avoids. Certainly, applying the brakes to that incipient spin out will ass1,1re a spin out, while a measured application of the accelerator might prevent one. A contact patch of a certain size has a finite amount of traction available to it. Asking !hat traction to be employed to change the direction of the car (steer) and at the same time calling UJlOI) it to slow the care (brake) may ove(UIX its capacity, and the grip on the road could be lost (skid). Therefore, a driver must balance the demands on the available traction. (For example, use a little steering with a little braking, or - more efficient. ly - finish the bral\ing "before staning the steering.) However, if your car has an antilack braking system (1\BS), the balancing act is done for you, and it'~done so rapidly that you can brake and steer at the same time.

Environmentalists argue that the rodents on which the owl feeds live among the "dead and downed" ponderosa pine and mixed conifer on the forest n.oor. Villagers find that argument puzzling: After eight years of research and $1.5 million, the U.S. Forest Service has found no evidence that the Mexican SJI9tled owl even lives in the forests near Truchas. Environmentalists counter that the area still needs to be protected because the owl might migrate there from forests about 100 miles away. Some of the firewood restrictions were lifted in October; villagers can venture 200 feet into the woods from the road and take dead wood on the ground. ~ "Before this lawsuit we had to contend with one bosk -the Forest., Service," Cordova said. "Now, with . • environmentalists looking over the Forest Service, we have to. contend with two bosses." At a November rally in Santa Fe, some villagers joined Hispanic activists and others in a mock hanging of two .environmental leaders. The rally was organized by a lumber mill ·operator also affected by the judge's order. "It felt like a hate crime," said John TaJbenh, executive director of the Sjdta Fe-based Forest Conservalion Council.and one of the men l"ho was hanged in effigy. - Meigs . munl'ty Com · calendar • ',. • I "' I ~ .. reglrds the weddmgs of Oalha, piP withtn 60 days f!lOI' to the pubMelp.anii,MIIon c:o~~nti~ as. news - liclllion, and !JI!IY ,be up to,600 words lnd;il JiiPPy.to publiib riltlins sto; · in length': for Alona the Riv-' ~riel-~ withOUt thqe. • must be ~ived by the editorial ~¥.., weddin1 nefS _IJIUii cjep&nll)~nt by'Thuflda~, 4p.I!I..Pri-. aNIIIillftl ~'Of, tlq,eliile._. . or to ~ date of pllblication. · t.?aterial .~~!t=ar.::=~~;: · dead~llli*w::t'~;~r.flect~~ u - sibilllftiftlii tV.. ~lru · • · .,_,.. -~ly ' .... ...

Q: What are'the benefits of having a fresh air intake on a gas fired forced air furnace? I'm especially interested in the health benefits. We live in a tight house in a very cole! region. : A: If the house is very tight, 'and there is minimal outside air infiltration, a fresh air intake is necessary to ensure the gas furnace works at peak efficiency. Specifically, a fresh air intake helps ensure complete combustion of the gas. II also reduces the chance that carbon monoxide from the furnace will re-enter the house, a phenomenon in tight houses known as back drafting. · A fresh air intake is still a good idea in houses th~t are not very tight. In this case, the air intake conserves energy by·ensuring that combustion in the furnace does ·ndt ~ly on the air in the house, which has already been heated. . • The cycle works this. way. There is 'generally a negative pressure in a house. When heated air is used in the combustion process, it goes up the chimney as waste gas. This increases the negative pressure .since the air in the house is f:leing used to bum the gas. In a .house that's rio1 very tigh~ this causes moie cold air infiltration. This cold air 'must be 1 heated, which uses up more ~nergy. 1 An air intake uses u!theated air to ensure combustion. !: llliiN•Iillf CtUI! tiNd /iNa,ci,g, 11oj $4 to Howu of tle W•••· - P. 0.

With that technique, said Ashton, "teachers must re-teach in different ways until the children mastered it." At the same time the school launched a "practical parenting.partnership" that sent teachers intq,.ihe homes, if necessary, when Pafents didn't show up for conferences. "We made an effort to see that the children are well fed and cared for, and that their educational needs were being met," said Ashton. The program brought parents into the schools 'for parenting skills sessions, and also offered fteld trips for parents, students and teachers. "We took them on field trips to mode I how to use free time," said Ashton, "and they included interesting things to do in the city that were not expensive." The result: Today, all the parents show .up for teacher conferences, and the number of sixth-graders labeled learning disabled has fallen from 40 percent to 7.5 percent. George Wilson, who coordinates special education for Springfield, said the money saved by new approaches at schools such as Weaver Elementary has been offset by having more students with severe medical problems in the district. "We have fewer low<ost kids, but more high-cost kids," said Wilson, "so the total (special education) costs remain stable." That's a claim few educators in America can make.

Williams County Prosecutor William Bish has appealed the ruling. Gretick's decision did not sit well with everyone in the predominantly white, rural county. He said SOJ11t people have accused him of " favoring the wrongdoers•." He believes the program may be discriminatory. "I have no basis for this, but I would guess that most of the Stops are of nonwhites," he said. The second case •pending before Grctick involves Todd McCormick, a marijuana activist. A team stopped McCormick and his girlfriend, Natalie Byrd, July I 8 a.~ they were traveling on the turnpike near Bryan. A trooper said she stopped the couple because the curtains on the back window of their minivan were partially drawn and obstructed the driver's view. Tr&lpers searched the car and found 30 pounds of marijuana. McConnick contends he was · stopped because he fit the profile of a drug trafficker. His car was traveling 63 mph when he was stopped, 2 · mph under the posted limit. At the time of their arrest, the two were headed to Providence, R.I., to set up a Compassion Club, which provides marijuana free to anyone with a serious disease. McConnick's lawyer, Don Wirtshafter, called the traffic stop a pretext to look for drugs. He has asked Gretick to suppress evidence In the case and dismiss drug trafficking charges against the couple -charges that carry a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison. "They definitely used a profile to pull Todd over," Wirtshafter said. "Todd is young, was driving a vehicle with out-of-state plates, has long hair and darker sldn - he almost looks a little Hispanic. That was all the officer needed to pull them over."

In Dayton campus ·hosts largest sci-fi depository·in the world However, Patrouch said works of varying qualities were sent in with no method for screening. He said donations dropped off for .a while, but seem to be picking up again. But the popularity of science fiction may be waning. Patrouch said enrollment in his science fiction-writing classes has fallen to about 20 students, down from more than 40 several years ago. "It has something to do with adissatisfaction among the general public with the kind of life that science lind technology is son of forcing us all to live," he said. " And people are retreatin' from that into religion and · superstluon, horoscopes and all that - away from science fic[\on." But Michael Payne, eoiXdirtator of the repositories, said he has seen no evidence that interest in science fiction is dwindling.

" Ef.lPl 0Yf.1C~JT SERVICES MoblleHomtl for Rent 320 Mobile HomH lor Sale Sbmc 65 pe~nt of the compantes .advantage of them . unless senior , , By KATHLEEN DRISCOLL G8nnett RochMIIr Newlpeplf'l ROCHESTER, N.Y. - These days, Mike Bartikofsky pulls into work between S and S:30 a.m •• about three hours before everyone else. By getting an early 'start on his day, he figures he can get home by 6 p.m., in time to feed and bathe his 3-monthold son, Joshua. " When my son was born, I made the commitment to play llfO!Ind with my schedule until! could fine-tune it the best way I know how," Bartikofsky says. "It's grueling. But at least I can put Joshua to bed." As the owner of an auto repair business, Mac's Automotive, Bartikofsky can build some flexibility into his work hours. But, like millions of other Americans, his heavy responsibilities get in the way of his personal life. " We still have to get the work all done in a day or it will stockp~e." Indeed, staying on top of those demands - and having enougl\ time and energy left for a personal life seems to be the ultimate oxymoron of the '90s. As business tries to do more with less, the struggle to balance career and family seems even more impossible. But there are signs of change: Many companies are seriously trying to help employees improve that balance. Ai the same time, barriers to culture change remain. "I call it the spiraling work week problem," says Paul Rupen, director of flexibility consulting for WorkFamily Directions Inc., a Boston fiim that consults with companies on these issues. " Anecdotally, people are experiencing a kind of mushrooming of the work week .... And that tends to make lots of flexible arrangements more difficult." As women have entered the work force and dual-career couples have become the norm, more companies have implemented flexible work policies and programs, illlowing employees to adjust their.starting and ending times.

History shows that investors who choose stocks prudently and hold Jhem until changes occur in their goals or those of the company outperfOf!lllhose who trade in and out on the news. It might not seem that way, but it is. The real winn~rs in stocks, such as Warren Buffet, are as slow to sell as they are to buy. 'They invest only after studying a stock. They sell for profound reasons rather than headlines. The point of this is that millions of small newcomers have joined the pursuit of equities in the past few years, mainly through mutual funds, of which there are now thousands. Will they bolt on bad news or will they hold?. How they will act really isn't known, because never to this extent have so many of them been in the market. If they resist the negative comments and the· scary news and the price volatility they can be a market stabilizer. If they withdraw from their mutual funds they could create a t1,1rbulent financial whirlpool. In this way: Withdrawals,force funds to raise money, which they must do by selling shares they own, putting additional pressure on prices and perhaps causing others skittish owners to withdraw. Forgotten in such a scenario is that fundamental values might change very little. Companies might have good earnings, fine prospects and competent managements - the very qualities that justified high prices fpr their shares. No matter, they might fall. ln·the marketplace, fear and rumor weigh equally with. the studious research and prudent evaluation. Prices can fall, and of course they have, simply because ihey are falling. The factual basis for a slowdqwn of corporate earnings increases is that the .rate of economic growth isn't likely to be.as strong during the next six months as it was in the immediate past. ·. Sti!l, •at perhaps I0 percent corporate earnings growth, roughly a third of 1995's, some popular ratios of earnings to price could support a Dow Jones industrial average at ilS current reading - higher · if interest rates fall . This is the verdict of Arnold Kaufman, editor of "The Outlook," Standard & Poor's weekly investment advisory newsletter, published just prior to the.latest correction: "We don't at this time see any major problems, either from a fundamental standpoint or on a technical front. Greed or fear will gain the upper hand at some point, but for now, the bull market remains intact" Still, he and most other forecasters have found it wise to attach cavealS to !heir assessments, the two most common being that a shortterm correction· is likely and the year's gains will be far below those of 1995. Almost as common is the reminder of that most basic of market truths, that nothing rises in an uninterrupted line, and rarely for the five straight years this market has been at it. That's too much to expect. Other factorS atso life involved. How will the Bosnia peacekeeping mission turn out? Will a budget agreement be reached? Will the Federal Reserve blunder in ilS monetary mission? Will scandals undermine public confiderice? For now, though, the focus is on those small, inexperienced investors, and the question is whether they will hold firm or go to pieces, selling mainly for the reason that other small investors are sell· ing. · I, ByJOYCE ROSENBERG AP Business Wrllltr 'The snow fell, and so did high· tech earnings and the stock market.
