A call to a CDC spokesman was not returned Sunday. Most of those treated at Johns Hopkins were suffering from cystic fibrosis, AIDS, or lung cancer, or had recently had lung transplants. Hospital officials discovered the problem after realizing that 128 patients had been infected with a bacterium known as pseudomonas.

The number was two to three times higher than the hospital would expect, said Dr. Paul J. Scheel vice chairman of medicine. "We don't know the cause and effect between patients who died and this infection," Scheel said. "People are going through medical charts to try to ascertain this."

The bronchoscopes are made by Olympus America, which recalled some of them last November.

Hopkins owns four of the defective instruments, but only three were found to be contaminated. The recall letter to Hopkins, dated Nov. 30, wasn't immediately acted on because it was mistakenly addressed to the loading dock of the Hopkins physiology department, the paper said. Officials at Olympus did not return a phone message seeking comment Sunday. In recall letters, Olympus described the defective instruments as having a loose valve that trapped bacteria.

Physicians use the instruments to perform bronchoscopies, which inspect a patient's lungs and take tissue samples. A thin, tube-like instrument, about the width of a pencil, is placed through the nose or mouth and into the lungs. role model to the children.

"Coach Hinton doesn't quit after the football season ends, but encourages them to go on to higher education," Garnes said.

Nine olSepl 11 hijackers were singiod cut bolare boarding pianes WASHINGTON (AP) Nine of the 19 hijackers on Sept. 11 were singled out for increased scrutiny but still were allowed to board the planes that later smashed into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania. A government official confirmed that six hijackers were flagged by a computerized airline passenger profiling system. Two others were singled out because of questions with their identification, and a third because he was traveling with one of the passengers with questionable ID, said the official, speaking on condition of anonymity. Under the security procedures in place at the time, passengers flagged for greater scrutiny would have their checked luggage inspected for explosives, either by hand or by machine.

Airline security officials did not know on Sept. 1 1 that two of the hijackers were on an FBI watch list of potential terrorists. mm PUriiSFl from Page 1A Not so, said Harry Reinhart, past president of the Ohio Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. The 1998 Supreme Court decision makes the issue of force in child rape a moot point, so the bill is irrelevant, he said. "This is some rookie legislator who wants to get a bill passed," he said.

Reinhart said he doesn't know of one crime in Ohio where the punishment is not already severe enough. "There are a lot of ways to go about addressing social problems, the least effective of which is the prison system," he said. "Putting people in prison does not change their behavior." Slagle said his office prosecutes two to five child rape cases a year. Some, including the Feb. 7 conviction of David Fay, who pleaded guilty after facing more than 100 counts of rape and possession of child pornography, have resulted in life sentences.

The majority of his child rape cases do not involve the use of force, he said. "In most of those the children are not held down necessarily," he said.

Some patients who were examined by one of three contaminated bronchoscopes have died, but hospital officials told The (Baltimore) Sun they did not know if they died from the bacteria or from their existing illnesses. The officials told the paper they have not determined how many patients have been infected or died.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration are investigating the problem, in part to determine if the device has triggered outbreaks elsewhere, The Sun reported.

Committee member Vickie Taylor praised him for operating the Bible Rescue Mission, a downtown equivalent to today's homeless shelter, for 18 years and ministering to the youth at the Marion Juvenile Correctional Facility. Taylor said, when she asked Egg from Page Hardin, Licking, and Wyandot counties, Buckeye Egg has 16 barns and each can hold about 207,000 laying hens each, or a little more than 3.3 million total. Buckeye Egg representatives did not attend the meeting. Inga Fricke, an administrator for the Wyandot County Humane Society, did.

"We've joined the CCCO in condemning Buckeye Egg's practices," Fricke said. "We don't have the resources to actively help them, but we do lend our moral support." Becky Kibler, spokeswoman for the CCCO, talked to residents while an NBC Dateline piece on owner Anton Pohlmann and his egg farms aired via videotape on a large screen television. "That was made what, four years ago?" Kibler asked. "You could change the date to today still would be the same." The CCCO, which has been around for seven years, continues to do battle. "We need to do this for the sake of our communities," Kibler said.

"We still have appeals pending, but we want to make a difference in the long haul." Kibler says the CCCO has Mildred Barrow COLUMBUS Mildred Barrow, age 95, passed away Saturday, March 2, 2002, with her family at her bedside at Mayfair Village in Columbus.

Bear said before the company opened in 1996, he had his property appraised.

While not sure of the exact figure, he thinks it was around the $100,000 mark.
