He said he didn't understand the union's complaint about the restrooms. Police moved from their previous headquarters in the basement of the township hall because they needed more room. The township clerk plans to move into the police department's old headquarters, Paar said. Pentagon Puts Hold On Ohio Guard Ruling Reserve Movies 644-3624 Marysville, Ohio A Thousands of Movies To Choose From! i WASHINGTON (AP) The Pentagon will honor Ohio Gov. Richard Celeste's request that it delay taking action against the Ohio National Guard until a federal court rules on whether governors can withhold guardsmen from Central American training exercises, an official says.

Daniel Donohue, a spokesman for the National Guard Bureau at the Pentagon, said Wednesday that further confrontation with Celeste is unlikely before such a ruling is made. Donohue said that if the court upholds the law, guard officials expect Celeste to clear the way for the Ohio National Guard's participation in an exercise in Honduras. Celeste told the head of the National Guard, Lt. Gen. Herbert Temple, last week that he will abide by the law as interpreted by the court and urged the guard office to delay any action to withhold funding from Ohio guard fl 1117 W.

Kynon said county iiLsiectors did a preliminary insertion about a month units.

Temple has threatened to withhold federal funds from the Ohio guard if Celeste persists in refusing to allow Ohio units to participate in preparations for a 1989 training exercise in Honduras. A federal judge in Minnesota is considering a suit brought by Uie governor of that state challenging a 1986 law that prohibits governors from banning National Guard participation in training exercises because of objections to the location, timing, purpose, or type of training ordered by the Pentagon. Donohue said the guard is moving on with the training and will continue preparing for deployment of the Ohio Guard to Central America for training in 1989, with reconnaisance and survey teams being sent to selected training sites in 1988 and perhaps later this year. number of delegates that reflects the votes they receive. The bill generally would replace a system in which delegates selected statewide can all be awarded under national party guidelines to the candidate with the biggest vote total with a requirement that they be prorated within each congressional district.

The two lawmakers cited elections in which they said candidates who won or ran strong in some districts were short changed. One example is the 1976 GOP primary, in which Ronald Reagan got nearly 45 percent of the statewide vote but only six delegates. That compared with then-President Gerald Ford's 55 percent and 91 delegates. In 1980, President Jimmv Carter got 84 Democratic delegate to Sen. Edward M.

while Carter received 51.1 percent of the statewide vote and Kennedy 44.2 percent, Batchelder and Hagan pointed out. "One obvious consequence of this legislation would be that all presidential candidates in both parties would have a strong incentive to run in Ohio. The voters of Ohio would, therefore, have as wide a range of choices as possible," they said in a joint 1 statement. Legal Opinion Sought On Taxing Of Lottery CLEVELAND (AP) State Rep. Ronald M.

Mottl Sr. has asked for an Ohio attorney general's opinion oh-whether communities can tax lottery ticket sales. The request from the Parma Democrat comes on the heels of a suggestion this week by North Olmsted Mayor M. Yvonne Petrigac for such a tax for that Geveland suburb. Mottl predicted lottery sales would be destroyed if communities were able to tax lottery tickets.

If Attorney General Anthony J. Celebrezze office rules that communities can tax the tickets, Mottl said he would ask the Ohio Legislature to prohibit such taxes. "The power to tax is the power to destroy," said Mottl, who introduced legislation in 1973 creating the Ohio Lottery. "We should not allow other communities to have the false hope that (taxing the tickets) is another source of revenue." North Olmsted City Council is considering a 5-cent tax on every $1 lottery ticket sold in the city. A final vote is expected in September.

The tax would raise about $100,000 a year for the city which is needed to cover rising expenses, Ms. Petrigac-said. She said the tax would not discourage sales, but Mottl disagreed. He said he was concerned that diminishing sales would mean less money for education, for which the lottery was intended. He said to ensure that profits continue to go toward education, he had already introduced legislation for a Constitutional amendment earmark- ing all lottery funds for education.

A state statute now destes the money for education. MTayne Hill, a spokesman for the attorney general, said North Olmsted's proposal is thought to be the first of its imd in the COLUMBUS, Ohio (AjP) Two lawmakers with contrasting political philosophies have joined in a call for a new and more equitable system for the selection of Ohio's delegates to the national political conventions.
