John Glenn's re-election landslide may have awakened the same exhilaration he felt when he orbited the earth as a space pioneer almost a quarter of a century ago. All smiles with wife, Annie, and his famUy at his side, he thanked Ohio's voters, Tuesday night amid the revelry of Democratic backers and added "We proved that in 1986, they couldn't kill Glenn with Kindness." The pun, uncharacteristic of the usually straight-laced Ohio Democrat, referred to GOP challenger U.S.

Rep. Thomas Kindness of Hamilton, who mustered less than 40 percent in the. two-candidate race that never was in doubt. But while Glenn basked in what he called his new mandate to represent campaigning, saying the public deserves to know "when any candidate deals with his campaign finances the way John Glenn has." Kindness said he was disappointed with the results of Senate races not only in Ohio but in other states that had Democrats winning or leading. "But 1988 is not that far away," he added.

The Republican had said in the waning days of the campaign, when polls showed him far behind, that he might consider challenging Sen. Howard Metzenbaum of Cleveland when Metzenbaum's term expires in 1988. Kindness also said he was considering seeking appointment to the Ohio Senate seat that will be vacated by State Sen. Donald E. "Buz" Lukens of Middletown, who was elected Tuesday to Kindness' House seat.

Kindness was bitter in defeat, repeating campaign claims that Glenn is a big-spending liberal "who is going to defeat himself eventually." At a GOP gathering in Columbus late Tuesday night, Kindness said he might call Glenn to congratulate him. It was not known early today if he had. With 98 percent of Ohio's precincts reporting, Glenn amassed 1,992,147 votes, or 63 percent, to 1,151,474, or 37 percent, for the six-term congressman from southwest Ohio's 8th District. The 65-year-old Glenn referred at his victory celebration a long summer of personal attacks from Kindness and Ferguson 1,940,610, Rose 965,610.

Mrs. Withrow, 55, credited a "good grass-roots organization" for helping her win in the face of Jacobs' saturation-level advertising. From June through mid-October, Jacobs, the scion of a wealthy Cleveland family that is negotiating to purchase the Cleveland Indians baseball team, spent $991,355 compared with Mrs. Withrow's $383,203. Jacobs, 32, of Bay Village, repeatedly said Mrs.

Withrow's tenure "reeked of impropriety" because she accepted campaign contributions from her office's employees and from the political action committees of banks. He portrayed himself as an activist who would bring new life to a "sleepy" office. Mrs. Withrow countered that she had improved the performance of the state's $2 billion investment portfolio and had aided the state's small businesses and farmers with the $226 million invested under her linked-deposits program. Her campaign manager contended that Jacobs complained about contributions from employees because he had trouble raising money.

Jacobs responded with a television commercial showing mud thrown at his photograph.

Glenn said he was targeted with several other Democratic Senate colleagues for negative campaigns that were engineered by GOP strategists in Washington. Kindness had assailed Glenn throughout the campaign for his inability to pay about $2 million in debts left over from the former astronaut's campaign for president in 1984.

Glenn said repeatedly that the entire debt will be repaid. Among disappointed supporters at a Republican election watch in Columbus, Kindness reacted bitterly to Glenn's comments about negative those issues," Jacobs said Tuesday. Celebrezze, 45, campaigned on the accomplishments of his first term, which he listed as expanding drug ed-cuation programs, attacking consumer fraud and beefing up the Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation. Levey, a 56-year-old Middletown attorney, said Celebrezze was ineffectual in investigating the Home State Savings Bank collapse that precipitated the state's savings and loan crisis, and contended that drug education did as much to encourage drug abuse as discourage it. Brown, at 33 the nation's youngest secretary of state, drew particular attention to his extensive voter-registration drives which brought him national attention.

Moyer, a judge on the Ohio 10th District Court of Appeals, said Tuesday night that he believed the turning point in the race came in early October when The Plain Dealer of Cleveland reported that Celebrezze had received more than $10,000 in campaign contributions from the political action committees of two labor union locals which law enforcement officials said were linked to organized "It helped bring everything into focus," said Moyer, 47. "The Plain Dealer article was the epitome of everything." Celebrezze, 58, had been a controversial figure in his six years at the court's helm for reasons ranging from his legal theories to his personal style. Oppponents said he led the court into making decisions that strayed far outside the court's boundaries into quasi-legislative functions, and most often cited the decisions which broadened workers' rights to sue their employers.

In addition, they said he ran roughshod over other justices to force them into his way of thinking, provoked intra-cburt quibbling that spilled into the justices' written opinions, and used sta.te aircraft for campaign trips. pealed, and the Justice Department recently joined in its attempt to overturn the award. The government said in its own brief Sept. 25 that public health issues are the consideration. It said the federal government had a role in the oversight of pertussis, or whooping cough, vaccines and had a right to participate in the Wyeth appeal.

Pertussis is considered the dangerous portion of the DPT vaccine. The Justice Department said a national health crisis could occur if the award, were to stand because availability of the vaccine would be threatened. It said federal health authorities support the use of the DPT vaccine, despite a slight risk of serious side effects, because of its "proven value for millions of children." "The Justice Department is using scarce taxpayers' dollars to meddle in a state court case," Metzenbaum said.

Mover In the process, the Republicans ended the Democratic Party's decade-long domination of the high court as GOP Justice Robert Holmes won a slim victory over challenger Francis Sweeney.

In the third race decided Tuesday, Democrat Herbert Brown narrowly defeated Joyce, George. The election results will give the Republicans a 4-3 advantage on the high court. The current court is split 4-3 Democratic. Final, unofficial results from the Ohio Secretary of State's office showed Moyer defeating Celebrezze 1,596,455 to 1,332024, a margin of 55 percent to 45 percent, according to unofficial figures from the Secretary of State's office. Holmes defeated Sweeney, a Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court judge, by less than 35,000 votes: 1,321,828 to 1,288,281.

Brown, who took leave from practicing law in 1983 to 1 i inefficient, incompetent and inclined to back off investigations of campaign finances to protect his political cohorts. Rose, of Lima, gave up his position as assistant House minority leader to challenge Ferguson, but he could not raise enough money to mount a television campaign and had trouble making himself known despite flamboyant campaign tactics that included live lobsters and a news conference in Ferguson's foyer. Rose charged that Ferguson was shaking down his employees for campaign contributions and allowing his employees to take second jobs that were conflicts of interest. He also said Ferguson's audit of Chief Justice Frank Celebrezze's use of state aircraft was a whitewash. Ferguson disputed all the charges and pointed to his office's efforts to detect welfare fraud.

He also called 'Moyer a pawn of big-business interests and at one point accused him of slandering people of Italian descent. He repaid the state some $1,700 for several plane trips and gave back gave back a $1,000 contribution he received from a convicted sex and drug criminal, but did not give back the questioned PAC money. "Celebrezze is the only judge in the system who acts the way he does," Moyer said. "Just by having a new Supreme Court justice, I think there will be a change. I understand how important it is that people perceive the court as just that a court, not a political system." Celebrezze was not available for comment Tuesday.

Holmes, 64, said throughout the campaign that it would be Celebrezze's fault if he lost. He claimed that Sweeney, 52, was hand-picked by Celebrezze to run against him because he shared the surname of incumbent justice A. William Sweeney. Ms. George, 50, also feared that name-confusion would be her undoing.

She and Brown, 54, were running for the seat of retiring Justice Clifford Brown. The two Browns are not related. Damage Claim right for me to take the side of this small boy." In his brief, Metzenbaum argued that no federal law precluded the state from determining that a product is dangerously defective, even if the product complies with federal standards. The factual and legal issues under review by the court should be decided on the basis of Ohio law, Metzenbaum wrote. "An administration that prides itself on the recognition of states' rights has taken a diametrically opposed position in this case," he said.

He said, "our people keyed a lot on Gene (Branstool) and Randy" (Berens)'." Graham and Feucht said their volunteers spent a lot of time in the past week with mailings and both said they had similar problems with vandalism to political signs posted in front yards, along the roadside. Both party leaders mentioned they were upset with Q-FM-96, a Columbus radio station, which was advertising before the election that it would give anyone 25 cents per political sign collected. Both Feucht and Graham felt that the advertisement increased the amount of stolen signs in this county. An employee for the radio station confirmed that 25 cents was being given away for any political signs brought to Veterans Memorial between 7-10 a.m. today.

The promotional ads ran on Monday afternoon but announced that signs were not to be taken before the election or without permission, said the employee, who did not want her name used. The station was boadcasting this morning from the sign turn-in location. Only Franklin County signs, with the stakes still attached, could be get the quarter pay out, said the employee.

A MedicareMedicaid Certified Agency By Rocco Arcieri E-G Staff Writer Help from the Fairfield County Board of Elections and reminders from wotkes of both local political parties contributed to a Tuesday county-wide voter turnout of 60.7 percent.

Board of Elections Director Alice. Nicolia said that things ran very smoothly yesterday and she had no major complaints from the precinct workers. The most common questions posed to board workers was "Can I or "Am I or "Why can't I vote if I've moved," said Debbie Henderly, a board worker. With about an hour of polling to go; she said yesterday was not much busier than any other election, but still there were a lot of phone calls. The scene at both party headquarters was similar, a little more than a handful of people for most of the night stayed while others shuffled to local candidate's parties.

Both locations had televisions playing and a hush would come as any updated election results were broadcast. Both headquarters also had members who tallied local results by phone from volunteers at the local Board of Elections. Leaders at local Democrat and Republican headquarters last night said similar things about what their volunteers had been doing the last week and on Monday and Tuesday while the polls were still open. Most of the phone reminders were made from volunteer's homes yesterday to let people know about election day. Pat Feucht, chairwoman at the Fairfield County Republican headquarters, said last night that about 45 volunteers were sed to target certain precincts in the county.

She said that target areas in Lancaster and Violet Township were arrived at by looking at returns from last year's election. She said the calls started right after the first posting of who had voted came out at the individual precincts. Dale Graham, chairman at the Fairfield Gounty Democrat headquarters, said he didn't have a good idea of how many volunteers were involved in making phone calls since a lot of the calling was done through phone chains of key people.

Howard Metzenbaum is taking on the Justice Department by filing a court document on behalf of an Ohio couple who claim hat their' 4-year-old boy is brain-lamaged as a result of a DPT vaccination. Metzenbaum, D-Ohio, this week asked that the document be accepted as a "friend of the court" brief with the 8th Ohio District Court of Appeals in Cleveland, supporting Tyler White and his parents, Daniel and Joanne White of Cleveland Heights. Tyler is confined to a children's home in the Lorain County community of Avon.

According to the lawsuit, the boy's problems began in 1983, after receiving a DPT vaccination for diptheria, pertussis and tetanus. The Whites sued the manufacturer of the vaccine, Wyeth Laboratories of Radnor, and a Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court jury in March awarded them $2.1 million.
