Although assistant prosecutor Susan Mctz told the court Mast was eligible for probation, Evans refused to grant it.

"It is this court's obligation to handle this case, and it is illegal to have sex with children," Evans said. "I must go by the Ohio Revised Code and sentence you to one year definite time on each count." Mast was remanded to the custody of the Coshocton County sheriff for transport to prison. Alvin Mast, 55, of 170 Park was sentenced Tuesday by Common Picas Court Judge Richard I. Evans to a definite one-year term on each of two unts of gross sexual imposition of brys less than 18 years of age. The sentence is to be served concurrently in an Ohio penal institution.

Evans had ordered a pre-sentence investigation after Mast had pleaded guilty March 6 to the charges. Defense attorney Charles Mathay Today's Report T71 E3 0 iJ, cU. i.v ki Pi cicuor curior (H) 0 HIW OM CINCINNATI (AP) Without the help of the National Endowment for, the Arts, the Taft Museum says, at least one-fifth of its paintings would be so thickly encrusted, with grime that visitors couldn't see them. So the museum covered Rembrandt's "Portrait of a Young Man" and 30 other works with black gauze Thursday to call attention to the possible loss of congressional support for the government art agency. "We've gone through all the grants we've received in the past five years, including funding for cleaning and preserving paintings, and found that amounted to about 20 percent of our paintings," museum spokeswoman Catc O'Hara said.

"So we've covered 20 percent of our paintings, showing here's what would happen if we never had NEA or other grants." Museums and art organizations throughout Ohio staged similar demonstrations as part of a nationwide Arts Day USA protest against critics of federal support for the arts. The Columbus Museum of Art asked visitors to leave its exhibit hall for 10 minutes each hour and turned off the lights to make its point about funding, a receptionist said. At the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati, a black shroud covered the sign advertising an exhibit of Japanese art that opens Friday. In Dayton, the Dayton Art Institute draped a black tarp over a sculpture in front of its building. The dispute began last year when Congress imposed restrictions on NEA grants after critics labelled government-supported photographs by Robert Mapplcthorpe obscene.

Some of the works that ignited the debate were included in a seven-week exhibition at the Contemporary Arts Center that led to the indictment of the gallery and its director on obscenity charges. The 175-photograph exhibit included five pictures of sex acts and two of child nudity. town and unavailable for At the Cincinnati Art Museum, officials posted a sign near the front entrance listing special exhibits and projects that wouldn't have been possible with NEA grants. Marie Ferguson, administrator of the Dayton Art Institute, said any restrictions would make the NEA's grant-making process subject to very personal opinions. "What's offeasive to one person may be very thought-provoking to another person, and what's controversial changes over the years," Ms; Ferguson said.

"A lot of artists are the social consciences of the country, and we need that." The Toledo Museum of Art marked its NEA purchases and conservation projects with yellow tape. "We did clearly make a statement by putting up a sign and police line tape next to each work of art that had been acquired or conserved with NEA funds," said spokeswoman Kathryn Rottc. "At the entry ways to each gallery that is under construction with NEA funds, we put the bright yellow tape." Ms. Rotte said that about 20 percent of that museum's conservation budget during the past five years has come, from NEA grants, allowing conservation of about 30 works, and that since 1982 the museum has made 12 acquisitions with NEA funds. Last year, the museum received $265,000 Tram the Ohio Arts Council, which receives 5 percent of its money from the NEA, Ms.

Rotte said. That grant helped finance a special exhibit, "Romance of the Taj Mahal," which has drawn 12,400 visitors during its nine-week run. Nationwide, theaters, symphonies, operas, ballets and artists' groups joined the art museums in their protest, encouraging patrons to write to their congressional representatives in support of the National Endowment for the Arts. someone had broken into the business overnight Wednesday.

Thursday Coshocton: Storms will continue Area residents can expect occasional showers and thunderstorms tonight, with some storms expected to be severe. The temperature will remain in the upper 60s to low 70s. Showers and thunderstorms are likely to continue Saturday. It will be warm and humid with the afternoon high 80-85. The extended forecast is calling for fair and cooler weather Sunday through Tuesday.

The humidity will decrease with daily highs in the 70s and overnight lows in the low 50s through the period. Thursday's high temperature was 78 and the low was 63. Precipitation at the Water Treatment Plant on South Second Street from midnight Thursday to 8 a.m. today was 0.65 inches. The high a year ago was 79 and the low was 57.

Ohio: Wet weekend ahead Ohio could be in line for a major outbreak of severe weather through tonight. Warm and muggy weather conditions over the entire state will contribute to the development of very strong thunderstorms. These storms will move out of Missouri and Illinois and into Ohio late today, causing the air mass over the stale to grow increasingly more unstable. An intense cold front over the Plains will trigger the storms well ahead of it as it approaches Ohio. A batch of early morning thunderstorms that developed over Indiana last night moved into western Ohio overnight, producing one to one and a half inches of rain in a few hours.

The area hardest hit was from Dayton to the south and Findlay to the north, and extended cast into Columbus, causing numerous but spotty electrical failures. The thunderstorm activity expected to produce the heaviest rains will continue to affect the central and western portions of Ohio. A flood watch is in effect for this portion of ohio through this evening. Farm: Too wet for field work Gulf moisture is flowing into the Ohio Valley and will support widespread thundershowers across the state through tonight. High temperatures will remain in the 80s.

Relative humidities holding above 60 percent will push the livestock safety index into the alert category, making ventilation an important factor in the well being of confined animals. Precipitation is to diminish from the Southwest on Saturday with fair and cooler weather Sunday and early next week. Additional rain may still total as much as an inch in much of Ohio by the time this system is through and as much as two inches is possible across central sections. Wetting will keep fields soft and unsuitable for traffic at least through the first part of next week. Evaporation losses of ten to fifteen hundredths of an inch per day will be overwhelmed by wetting until the weekend.

Humidities should fall back below 50 percent Sunday and Monday as high pressure builds into the area from the Northern plains. The fair weather will give fruit growers a-chance to resume spray schedules but field application of chemicals may be delayed until mid week in some cases. Prospects for new cuttings of hay will improve the first part of the week. High temperatures in the 70s and wet ground will slow drying but lower humidities and sunshine should keep curing rates respectable. There is some hope that the dry period may extend through mid week.

Nation: Storms widespread Thunderstorms moved into the South early today, and for the third straight day were over parts of the Ohio Valley, the central Plains and Mississippi Valley. Rain fell in the southern tip of Florida and the coastal Pacific Northwest Showers also dampened the Great Lakes region, as a warm front moved up from the Gulf of Mexico. The front was expected to be pushed east by the jet stream and bring evening thunderstorms to much of New England. There were mostly clear skies and fair weather in the West. Early today, thunderstorms were over central Georgia and the coast of South Carolina.

Thunderstorms also were over Iowa, Nebraska, Indiana and Michigan. Thunderstorms developing along a warm front produced severe weather in the central Plains and the mid-Mississippi Valley on Thursday. Applegate seeks new Iowa probe being used," Applegate said in a prepared release. Navy Assistant Secretary Everett Pyatt had responded to an Applegate inquiry with a 1987 letter saying the hoists purchased for the four Iowa-class battleships "were competitively procured at significant savings to the Navy and the American taxpayer." Jon Reynolds, president of Chester -Hoist, said he stopped arguing about the Navy's purchase decision after reading Pyalt's letter, but now believes he should have continued to argue. At the end of 1989 the Navy started requesting price quotes for his company's more expeasive but more spark-resistant hoists, Reynolds said in a letter released by Applegate's office.

"Our hoists are being quoted to replace non-compliance hoists pulled from ships," Reynolds wrote. "Much of this activity has occurred since the Iowa disaster, various naval accidents and especially since the 48-hour shutdown to check safety." Obituary-: Area Notes WASHINGTON (AP) Ohio crngrcssman Douglas Applegate is pressing for another investigation related to the fatal explosion aboard the USS Iowa. Rep. Applegate, a Democrat, on Thursday asked the House Armed Services Committee to examine the way the Navy handed out contracts for the retrofitting of the USS Iowa and its sister battleships. He said he has concerns about the chain hoists for the battleship's 16-inch guns.

"I'm not about to state categorically that the use of hoists that didn't meet military specifications caused the Iowa explosion, (but) I do think that a number of questions have been raised about Navy contracts for critical components," he said. The Navy has reopened its investigation into the cause of the April 1989 blast that killed 47 sailors after initially concluding the explosion had been caused by a gunner's mate, Clayton Hartwig of Cleveland, whom the Navy labeled suicidal. The Hartwig family strongly criticized the Navy's findings. The new probe is looking at the likelihood that friction could have caused the explosion. Applegate said his staff began gathering documents on chain hoists after the Chester Hoist Co.

of Lisbon, Ohio, complained about losing business to foreign makers whose products failed to meet the military's "spark resistance" requirement. "I want to be certain that corners weren't being cut and that the lives of sailors weren't being placed in jeopardy because substandard materials were homecoming.
