Football fans turn rowdy after games

Ruckus: Fans at Ohio State throw clumps of field at cops;
police use pepper spray in Raleigh, NC, and make 21 arrests

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Fan celebrations got out
of hand after several college
football games Saturday. as
several people were injured
following victories and
Washington players were
pelted with debris.

Most. but not all. of the
rowdy behavior surrounded
the usual goal-post-disman-
tling parties that followed
big victories:

- In Clemson. S.(‘,.. a 67»
year-old sheriff 's officer and
a female fan were hurt when
fans rushed the field and
tore down a goal post follow-
ing the Tigers‘ 27-20 win
over South Carolina.

The victims were taken
away by ambulance. Officer
James Booth was in stable

condition at a hospital: he
was hurt when 30 fans piled
on top of him.

Details on the female
fans condition weren‘t
available. but her injuries
were not life-threatening.

- In Raleigh. NC... three
people were injured on the
field when fans tore down
goal posts following North
Carolina State's 17-7 victory

One person had a broken leg
and two others had knee in

There were 21 arrests.
but none was related to the

spray was used on fans to

ilar episode two years ago.

state troopers used pepper

away from one of the goal

fans climbed the goal post.
but couldn‘t knock it down.

Eight people were an
rested for disorderly con
duct and open-container vio-
lations. and at least a dozen
small fires were reported
near the campus after the
game.

Fans also tore up pieces
of the field. Some threw
clumps at officers. while
others said they would try
to sell them on the Internet.

Goal: sweet-smelling blue roses

SAN FRANCISC () Roses are red and
a variety of other colors. But they‘ ve never
been blue » an omission legions of rose
breeders have sought for centuries to reme-
dy. Breakthroughs in biotechnology may fi-
nally resolve the quest for the elusive blue
rose. which alas does not exist because roses
lack the corresponding pigment genes. Tech-
nology also promises to restore sweet smells
to the rose and other flowers. Generations of
commercial breeding has led to beautiful but
bland-smelling roses. Their colors are stun-
ning and vase lives long, but they‘ve little

bringing science to bear on diseases and
pests that affect the world's 120 different rose
species. which have blossomed into a $10 bil»

Untouchable.

: Proposal to raise cigarette tax,

heat from health groups threaten tobacco’s stance

ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRANKFURT For
decades. tobacco has been the
icon of Kentucky politics. an
unassailable commodity to
which all had to pledge fealty.

It wasn't terribly long
ago. for example. that some
legislators threatened to pun-
ish the University of
Louisville for daring to sug.
gest a nonsmoking policy on
parts of campus. Kentucky
was one of the last states to
grudgingly impose federally

mandated restrictions on
sales of tobacco to youth.
Kentucky remains the

home of the second-lowest
cigarette tax in the nation :3
cents per pack: and one~half
cent of that goes to under-
write tobacco research. Not
only does Kentucky have a
relatively minuscule cigarette
tax. it doesn't tax most other
tobacco products at all.
Smokeless tobacco. cigars and
related products are not taxed
by the state.

Signs are appearing.
however. that tobacco‘s pre
eminence is slipping.

House Democratic
Leader Greg Stumbo has pro-
posed a 15-cent addition to

 

2003-2004

the cigarette tax to finance an
expansion of the Kentucky
State Police. Stumbo. who is
the most influential member
of the House and a candidate
for attorney general. appears
ready to make the plan part of
his campaign platform.

Last week. Council on
Postsecondary Education
member Walter Baker. a for»
mer state senator and
Supreme Court justice. sug-
gested cigarette taxes as a
way to make tip for expected
problems in financing educa-
tion. Baker’s suggestion was
met with silence in the meet
ing of the Strategic Commit-
tee on Postsecondary Educa-
tion. a group of council mem-
bers and leaders of the execu»
tive and legislative branches

The antismoking forces
have long advocated ciga-
rette tax increases; in one in-
stance a suggestion of 75
cents a pack was made. The
arguments have ranged from
health to finances. There is a
school of thought that high-
er cigarette prices help curb
demand. especially among
the youngest smokers and
would-be smokers.

The Kentucky Chamber
of Commerce has even whis-

tention away from the fact

that low corporate tax pay-
ments have contributed to
the current budget problems

The semise rious at-
tempts to light up the ciga-
rette tax over the last dec ide
or so offer some evidence of
the hazards associated with
that kind of smoking.

Then-(10v Wallace
Wilkinson included a modest
increase in the cigarette tax
as part of his initial funding
proposal for the 1990 Ken
tucky Education Reform Act.
It was the first thing eliminat-
ed by the General Assembly.
even before his proposal to ex-
tend the sales tax to some ser-
vices.

As recently as this year.
the legislature took another
glance at tobacco taxes as a
part of an overhaul of the
entire tax system. Despite
nearuniversal public claims
of support for tax reform
among legislators. nothing
came of the report compiled
to conclude the yearlong
study. And the respective
chairmen of the House and
senate Appropriations and
Revenue Committees ac-
knowledged early on that a
cigarette tax increase was
dead on arrival.

Receipts from the tax on

cigarettes are somewhat
volatile. In the fiscal year
that ended June 30. the ciga-
rette tax raised 13.9 million.
a decline of 0.5 percent from
the previous year. But
through the first four
Inonths of the current fiscal
year. cigarette tax receipts
are tip 14 percent.

Former budget director
James Ramsey said the con-
ventional wisdom is that a
penny tax on cigarettes rais-
es about $5 million a year.
There is a point. however. at
which higher tax rates bring
in relatively less money as
smokers kick their habit be-
cause ot‘ the cost of a pack.

The diminishing support
for tobacco is economic as
much as anything.

While there were still
some 118.000 owners of bur-
ley quotas the legal right
to grow and sell tobacco rm in
2001. the value of those quo—
tas has plummeted. Cigarette
manufacturers have mostly
left the state and most grow-
ers have concluded that the
companies have been using
them for political purposes
for years with little regard
for their well—being.

Yet until the reputation
of tobacco‘s power is chal-
lenged. the perception will
likely remain that it is un—
touchable.

President Bush.

in a statement issued early Sunday.

said: “This agreement is good for workers. good for employ-
ers and it‘s good for the American economy I congratulate
labor and management for working together to successfully

resolve their disagreement.”

The Pacific Maritime Association. which represents the
shipping companies. had locked out dockworkers at the 29
major Pacific ports for 10 days. causing Bush to invoke a lit-
tle-used law to open the docks Oct. 9 to avoid an economic

crisis.

The ports handle more than $100 billion in trade yearly.
Some economists estimated that the US. economy lost $1 bil-
lion each day as cargo piled up at the docks and ships waited at
anchor offshore. Some factories shut down. lacking supplies.

Bush was the first president in 24 years to invoke the
emergency provision of the Taft-Hartley Act in an attempt
to halt a labor dispute. He also was the first president in
history to use the act to stop a lockout. not a strike.

Taft-Hartley has been invoked 11 times in port disputes
in the past. of which only nine were successfully resolved.

The union‘s contract ended in July Sticking points
had centered on shipping companies‘ desire for computer-
ized cargo tracking systems that will make dockside work
more efficient. but also cost jobs. The union in return
wanted increased compensation and pension benefits.
