(Paid Obituary) Servicemen hurt trying to find French soldiers NAPLES, Italy (AP) The reconnaissance photo was dramatic: a man standing alone in the woods of Bosnia, near a road, pointing to a small clearing. Drawn into the dirt of the clearing was the crude outline of an aircraft, and the letters and two 3s part of the call sign of two French fighter pilots shot down Aug. 30 by Bosnian Serbs. The possibility that the scene was a desperate attempt by the French fliers to signal for a rescue sent NATO commando teams into action three times this month aboard armor helicopters, NATO revealed Friday. But bad weather and Serb gunfire foiled the missions, leaving two American servicemen wounded and the French pilots' whereabouts still unknown.
NATO is pressing its efforts to rescue the fighter pilots, U.S. Adm. Leighton Smith, the alliance's commander for southern Europe, said Friday at a news conference. The search parties went into action Sept. 6,7 and 8.
The first two attempts were hampered by bad weather and met with some small arms fire, Smith told reporters in Naples. A barrage of bullets forced the third to turn back in the darkness after 30 minutes over the area. Bullets or 14 Days Left to Register for the General Election. 221 S. PLUM ST.
MARYSVILLE, OHIO 513-642-2836 metal shards from the fusillade struck the two American crewmen in the leg. They continued carrying out their duties despite their wounds, Smith said. NATO warplanes returned fire. One crewman suffered a "grazing wound" to the knee by a piece of shrapnel and has returned to active duty. The other had a piece of shrapnel embedded in his thigh and was convalescing.
Both are back in the United States at Eglin Air Force base in Hurlburt, Fla. Neither was identified. The French Mirage 2000 was shot down at the outset of NATO's bombing campaign against the Bosnian Serbs. A strange scene emerged after intelligence experts examined a photograph from a German reconnaissance plane, said U.S. Navy Capt.
Mark Van Dyke, a NATO spokesman. "In the clearing, there appeared to be a crudely drawn outline of an aircraft, and other figures that appeared to be similar to a call sign of the aircraft," he said. The radio call sign was EBRO 33, and the figures and two 3s apparently could be made out. was potential those symbols could have been drawn by the airmen," Van Dyke said. Smith said the photograph was part of "convincing evidence" that it was worth sending in rescue teams.
No voice contact was made with the French airman, unlike the case of U.S. airman Scot O'Grady, who was plucked out of Bosnia in a dramatic rescue in June after evading Bosnian Serbs for six days. The United States has no ground troops in Bosnia but participates in NATO air raids and other alliance operations there. Read The Classifieds Daily CopySource C. HIGH SPEED COPYING.

GOP wants to raise Medicare age WASHINGTON (AP) Congress' fierce Medicare debate spilled across the Capitol on Friday as Democrats staged a protest hearing in the rain and Senate Republicans proposed gradually raising the eligibility age from 65 to 67.
Under the Senate GOP plan, seniors would be required to pay the first $150 in doctor bills. next year up from the current $100 deductible with annual increases of $10 a year thereafter. "We know that if the Republicans would only drop their trickle-down tax breaks, they simply wouldn't need to ravage said House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt, presiding over the soggy outdoor session. But Speaker Newt Gingrich said the Democrats had nothing constructive to offer. "Instead of meeting in a room and doing the hard work of trying to save our parents and our grandparents and make sure their Medicare is okay, all they've got are press conferences and a great deal of nasty attacks," he said on NBC's "Today" program.
Undeterred by the criticism, Republicans pressed ahead with other elements of their plan to balance the budget over seven years. The House Commerce Committee passed legislation that would force $182 billion in savings from Medicaid and end the federal guarantee of health care for the poor and disabled. Only one Democrat voted in favor of the GOP plan to convert the program to a "block grant" to be run by the states. "We are on the verge of transforming the fastest-growing entitlement program in America," said Rep. Thomas J.
Bliley, chairman -of the panel. But Rep. Henry Waxman, D- protested that without the federal guarantees in place, the number of Americans without health insurance could skyrocket to 80 million. Republicans on the Senate Finance Committee detailed their blueprint for saving $270 billion from Medicare over seven years. It is similar to the proposal backed by Gingrich in the House, but differs in certain key aspects.
The Senate Finance Committee plan would raise Medicare Part premiums for doctor and other nonhospital care. for all seniors faster than current law, and would require wealthier beneficiaries to pay up. to three times as much. That's in keeping with the House proposal. The House would leave the current $100 deductible untouched while the Senate would raise it to $150.
The Senate plan had a surprise: boosting the eligibility age in steps from 65 to 67 between 2003 and 2027, as full Social Security eligibility rises. As a result, everyone bom since 1938 would have to wait longer for Medicare; those born since 1960 would have to wait until age 67. The Senate plan also would allow seniors to pocket up to 75 percent of the savings in cash if they joined health maintenance organizations or other plans that cost Medicare less. That is a more generous rebate provision than the House version. Senate aides said their plan looks to save $70 billion from beneficiaries, $50 billion by encouraging seniors to move to private health plans and $150 billion from providers.
Elsewhere: -The Senate Governmental Affairs Committee approved $9.8 billion in deficit cuts, including an increase in the contribution that federal employees must make toward their own retirement. The provision would apply to Postal Service employees as well, and is expected to raise $3.6 billion over seven years. -Republican efforts to impose a new student loan fee on colleges and universities was stalled for a second Marysville Journal-Tribune (USPS 181 020) P.O.

The panel meets again next week. -To dramatize their complaints that Republicans are merely trying to finance a tax cut for the rich, Senate Democrats proposed a non-binding provision to deny a tax break to anyone earning more than $100,000.
The GOP killed it, 54-43, on a near partyline vote. Political theater blended with policy on Medicare, the largest single element of GOP -balancing effort and the most politically sensi-' tive of the programs Republicans have targeted for deficit savings. Angry that Republicans hadn't yet produced a detailed proposal, House Democrats convened their outdoor hearing to protest a compressed schedule that calls for the bill to be approved by a committee next week. "For 30 years, this nation has moved in the direction of greater retirement security," said Labor Secretary Robert Reich. "Now, with retirement benefits declining and with Medicare under assault, we are head- Two local men were recently sentenced to prison by Union County Common Pleas Judge Richard E.
Parrott. Brian A. Groves, 29, originally of Marysville was sentenced to prison for violating the following terms of his probation: on or about April 28 he was convicted in Marysville Municipal Court of driving under suspension; on or about Aug. 24 he changed his address without permission or informing his probation officer; and he refused to report to his probation officer for a scheduled visit. Parrott reimposed Groves' previous sentence of years on illegal conveyance of drugs of abuse onto the grounds of a detention facility, a felony of the fourth degree, and years on trafficking in marijuana, a felony of the third degree.
Both sentences will 1 run concurrent to each other. According to court records, Groves had brought marijuana and sold it in the Union County jail after being out on a work Groves was granted 10 days jail time credit and 69 days penitentiary for prior time served, Another local man was sentenced to prison after he pleaded guilty to several theft-related charges. Parrott sentenced Jeremy K. Wurtsbaugh, 18, of Marysville to prison for years for breaking and entering, years for vandalism, years on each of three counts of theft and years on each of three counts of forgery, all felonies of the fourth degree. He was also sentenced to prison for years for safe cracking, a felony of the third degree.
All sentences will run concurrent to each other. One of the victims, Penny Smith, owner of Pizza in Richwood, was present at the proceedings. According to court records, on June 24 and 25 Wurtsbaugh forged the name Todd Lewis on two personal checks of $50 and cashed one at the Main Street Short Stop and one at the Fifth Street Short Stop in Marysville. On July 5 he was found with a third forged check. In another incident which occurred on July 21, he and three juveniles kicked in the door of Pizza, causing damage to the building, and forced entry into the safe.
They stole more than $500 in cash and several blank printed business checks. Then on July 26 or 27 he stole two handguns from a Richwood residence. In addition to the prison sentence, Wurtsbaugh was ordered to make full restitution to the following victims: Pizza, in the amount of Charles Adkins, in the amount of $366; North Main Short Stop, in the amount of $50; and West Fifth Short Stop, also in the amount of $50.

Republicans sought to deride the Democratic session, dispatching a woman in a chicken suit who waddled slowly around the fringes of the hearing. She carried a sign that read: "Hey Democrats. Don't be Chicken. Save Medicare." That's what Republicans said they were intent on doing with their plan to save $270 billion over seven years.
Both House and Senate versions would rein in payments to doctors and hospitals under the current fee-forservice program. The proposals also would provide for creation of several lower-cost alternatives to the current system. These include HMOs and other managed care selections, and a medical savings account under which a senior could purchase coverage with a high Company can harassing Sprint United Telephone-Centel has introduced several new services to help ensure privacy and reduce the impact of harassing phone calls. A call tracer service records the calling number at Sprint United's central office. The service is activated by dialing immediately following the nuisance call or 1157 on rotary phones.
Once a traced number is recorded, customers can contact Sprint United for information on what to do next. Customers will be charged for the service only when a call is traced. The tracer service will be available Oct. to Sprint United customers in the following exchanges: Belle ter, 464; Degraff, 585; Milford Center, 349; Raymond, 246; Ridgeway, 363; Rosewood, 362; Rushsylvania, 468; and West Mansfield, 355. Other services available to select exchanges in the Express Touch area include caller ID, auto call return and repeat dialing plus.
However, caller ID will not be available to customers in Belle Center, Ridgeway, Rosewood, Rushsylvania and West Mansfield. Customers can also select a per line blocking service which automatically blocks the caller's number in all calls without a dialing code. Per line blocking is a free service to all customers with unpublished telephone numbers and available for $1.50 1 per month to published customers. In addition, all Sprint United customers will be provided with a per call blocking service free of charge. Per call blocking provides customers with the ability to block the delivery of deductible and lower premium and have money set aside in a personal bank account.
Republicans say creating these alternatives will lead to creation of coverage plans that are less costly and offer benefits not now available under Medicare, including prescription drug and eyeglass coverage. House Republicans convened the Ways and Means Committee for the first and only hearing on Medicare since the release of an outline of the proposed changes. The committee meets Wednesday to begin voting. MATCH POINT When building a campfire, clear a 5-foot area around the pit down to the soil. REMEMBER, ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT FOREST FIRES.
