Retch rK WOTi Wisconsin sees rise in TB cases STADIUM CHRONOLOGY Jan. 12, 1995: The Brewers tell a study commission they can commit $60 million to $90 million to a new stadium project, but only $10 million to $15 million up-front.

Jan. 19, 1995: A study commission urges the Wisconsin Legislature to approve and send to voters a proposed constitutional amendment for creation of a sports lottery that could help pay for the stadium. Jan. 23, 1995: Milwaukee's business community offers to underwrite efforts to boost Milwaukee Brewers ticket sales and promote a proposal to enact a sports lottery to finance a new stadium. April 4, 1995: Voters reject creation of the sports lottery by a nearly 2-to-1 margin.

Aug. 19, 1995: Gov. Tommy Thompson announces a $250 million financing package for constructing a new ballpark and promises to call a special session of the Legislature to consider imposition of a special sales tax. Oct. 6, 1995: The state Senate, just before dawn, votes 16-15 to salvage a plan to raise taxes to help build the stadium.

Passage follows two unsuccessful votes that sent Thompson and legislative leaders into early morning huddles. The swing vote comes from Sen. George Petak, R-Racine. Nov. 14, 1995: A group of Racine County residents unhappy with Petak's vote announce plans to seek to have him recalled from office.

Jan. 1, 1996: A one-tenth of one percent sales tax increase is imposed in Milwaukee, Racine, Waukesha, Ozaukee and Washington counties. The tax is to provide the $160 million taxpayer's share of the cost of a new stadium. Feb. 20, 1996: The Brewers seek to alter the legislative financing package for the ballpark, but state officials reject the proposed changes.

Feb. 26, 1996: The Wisconsin Professional Baseball Park District Board unanimously votes to require the Brewers to provide financial assurances for their $90 million share of a new stadium by March 22 or face suspension of the sales tax, March 21, 1996: The Brewers and Miller Brewing Co. announce a 20-year pact worth $41 .2 million for the right to name the stadium Miller Park. March 22, 1996: The Brewers submit a financial package outlining their $90 million share to the stadium board. Associated Press Party isn't about me, says Perot WASHINGTON (AP) Texas billionaire Ross Perot sought to dampen speculation about his political plans for 1996, insisting Friday that the work of his new Reform Party was not about his personal ambition.

"We don't in any way want this to be focused on any individual, and certainly not me," Perot said on CNN's "Larry King Live." But four years after he turned the presidential race upside down, Perot appeared to be retracing his steps with a blitz of media interviews and speeches across the country in recent days. And he couldn't help but look as if he was reprising his candidacy by returning to King's show, where he first announced his intention to seek the presidency in 1992. Never mind his insistence that "this is not about me." After a wide-ranging interview, the irony wasn't lost on King: "I'll say this on a personal note," the host said, "if it ain't about you, this hour was about something." Throughout the session Perot sought, in his inimitable way, to steer the talk to the government's failure to eliminate the federal deficit or reform major entitlement programs, such as Medicaid and welfare. "We're like a person that's bleeding arterially," he said. "We've got to stop the bleeding." He said the Reform Party would seek written commitments from the candidates it endorses that they will address Reform Party concerns and not engage in negative campaigning.

come harder, if not impossible, to cure. While the World Health Organization estimated Thursday that 50 million people worldwide carry drug-resistant strains, the CDC wasn't yet able to tell how many U.S. cases resisted treatment. California and New York City were hardest hit by TB, but saw improvement last year. New York City's cases dropped 18 percent last year, to 2,445 patients, while California's dropped 4 percent, to 4,622 patients.

The U.S. figures came one day after the WHO reported that tuberculosis remained the world's leading infectious killer, claiming 3 million lives last year. The worldwide TB epidemic means Americans are not safe despite declining rates here, the CDC says. TB can be highly contagious, spread through coughing or sneezing, even by flying on an airplane with a sick person. "What we do now is critically important," said Castro, warning states and Congress against letting up on TB prevention efforts.

The American Lung Association called on Congress Friday to provide $220 million to fight TB in 1997, $75 million more than this year, to build on last year's successes. And it warned that President Clinton's 1997 budget proposal would no longer require states to use CDC grants specifically to fight TB, meaning they could instead divert TB funding to other health needs. WASHINGTON (AP) New cases of tuberculosis dropped 6.4 percent in the United States last year, the third year of decline after an eight-year surge. But there was a worrisome increase in cases of the infectious lung disease in the nation's heartland, including Wisconsin, government doctors said Friday. "This is not a time for celebration but a time for cautious and guarded optimism," said Dr.

Kenneth Castro, TB chief at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Last year, 22,812 Americans got active TB, down from 24,361 the year before, the CDC said. That decline followed drops of 5 percent in 1993 and 4 percent in 1994. But 20 states either saw no change or an increase in TB last year. Among the worst rises: Arizona, up 28 percent; Minnesota, 11 percent; Iowa, Louisiana and Pennsylvania, 9 percent; and Wisconsin, 7 percent.

The CDC isn't sure why TB increased in those states. TB among Americans had surged 20 percent between 1985 and 1992. Some 15 million Americans are infected with the bacterium that causes TB, but because the bug doesn't sicken everyone, 1.5 million will develop active TB at some point. The government in 1992 declared TB a public health emergency, and last year spent $145 million to test Americans and ensure those with TB the six months of medicine required to cure them. Not taking medicine properly spurs TB germs to develop drug resistance and be Brewers FETAK Board meets Tuesday lThe total sum of these ingredients represent our response to the requirements set by the Baseball Park District Board for the $90 mil-, lion equity in Miller Park," Selig said in the statement.

"We will be working with the District during this process to make sure we have the same understanding of this complex package." The team declined to identify the bank or any other specifics of the deal. "We don't want to say anything until the board looks at it," spokesman Jon Greenberg said. "It'll be up to the board to reveal it." The Brewers fought for nearly a year to get public financing for the new park. After voters last spring rejected creation of a sports lottery for the project, Thompson helped negotiate the new plan that raises the sales tax. That package narrowly passed the Legislature.

Selig, the acting commissioner of baseball, has repeatedly said the team cannot survive in Milwaukee without revenue sharing and the new stadium. Baseball owners approved a revenue-sharing plan Thursday in Phoenix that would give some small-market teams an additional $4 million this season if the players' association agreed. "It appears that a lot of good things have happened to the Brewers in the last couple of days. We got great news from Miller. They stepped up and really put us into the big leagues with their commitment," Brewers manager Phil Garner said at the team's spring training quarters in Chandler, Ariz.

"We have a plan to replace the WHEDA loan, which sounds like an answer to what all the politicians were asking for. So, it looks like the Brewers have really done their part. Now it's up to the stadium authority to go ahead and get something done." said. Elizabeth Erven, chairwoman of No More Petax, said she was pleased with the staff recommendation and was prepared to go to court if the board fails to certify a recall. Erven said her guess was that the signatures the staff ruled out were invalid.

She said she would still work to correct petitions in case the count was close. "It's not over till it's over," Erven said. Jim Pugh, a spokesman for the Republican Party of Wisconsin, said the party has not decided whether to go to court if the board certifies a recall. "We have to keep every option available to us under consideration but we trust that the board will recognize that we have raised significant constitutional and statutory challenges to the recall drive that no election should be called," Pugh said. Pugh said Petak had a strong record on welfare reform, property tax relief and juvenile justice reform, and the party is confident he would win if a recall election is held.

From Page 1A accomplishments," Petak said, "We are willing to put that record before the voters." The board is scheduled to meet Tuesday to decide whether to follow the staff's recommendation and order a recall election. "There will be some legal issues for the board to resolve," Kennedy said, declining to say how many signatures the staff ruled out or why. Petitioners had submitted about 14,000 signatures. The staff makes the recommendation in a 40-page document that was still being assembled Friday, Kennedy said. Petak's supporters contend the petitions filed against him were flawed and had hundreds of signatures illegally collected.

No More Petax has said petitioners worked diligently and in good faith to follow state law and the board's instructions. If the board certifies a recall election, a primary would be held May 7 and an election June 4, Kennedy From Page I A kissing the ring of the NRA even though most of his own Republican colleagues know that this rash step is the wrong thing to do," said Rep. Charles Schumer, And Rep. Martin Meehan, said the NRA had made more than $3.5 million in political contributions in recent years, the bulk of it to Republicans. Gingrich did not speak during the debate, and his office declined com-' ment.

But other leading Republicans said the leaders had set the vote because they had promised it to the NRA, their political benefactor, last year. "Promises made, promises kept" is the motto of the GOP majority, and House GOP Leader Dick Armey of Texas said on Thursday that members who ran on the issue in 1994 wanted voters to know they kept their word. In a sign of the conflicting political forces at work, Gingrich's decision seemed to cause discomfort for Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, the GOP presidential nominee-in-waiting. As Clinton was weighing in Thursday with his veto threat, Dole said the repeal measure was "not a priority." In a written statement, he criticized the ban as ineffective but said, "I am not optimistic that there is sufficient support in the Senate to pass the repeal. Solomon, an ex-Marine, became embroiled in a dispute with Kennedy shortly after debate began.

"Play with the devil, die with the devil," said Kennedy. "You will never know what it's like because you don't have someone in your family killed. It's not the person who's killed. It's the whole family that's affected." said the 28-year-old Kennedy, whose uncles, President John Kennedy and Sen. Robert F.

Kennedy, were assassinated in the 1960s. Calmly, Solomon said he had great respect for Kennedy's family. But he then accused Kennedy of questioning the integrity of those who brought the measure to the floor. "My wife lives alone five days a week in a rural area in upstate New York," Solomon shouted angrily. "She has a right to defend herself when I'm not there, son.

And don't you ever forget it." An aide later said Solomon and his wife own five rifles.

The museum will be housed in the four-story, former department store, which has been empty for over 10 years. Two adjacent buildings will be demolished to provide parking and green space. The project is expected to be completed in three phases over the next two years.

The funding was announced Friday by state Sen. George Petak, R-Racine, in a news release. "This unique and innovative project will help reinvigorate downtown Racine by bringing in customers and jobs," said Petak. Douglas Location Only and Boston pianos our Milwaukee just right for you!

Brewers President Bud Selig, a majority owner, announced the submission of the financial package to the Southeast Wisconsin Professional Baseball Park District Board in a two-page statement.

"We have accomplished a tremendous amount in a short period of time," Selig said. "We have had tremendous support from business and civic leaders of metropolitan Milwaukee to develop this comprehensive package." The stadium board plans to meet Monday to decide whether to suspend the tenth-of-a-cent sales tax or give the Brewers time to answer questions about the package, Thompson said. Thompson declined to release details on the package, saying only that he believes it is "cleaner deal" than the planned loan from the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority. "I think it relieves WHEDA, which wasn't real excited about doing it," the governor said. The Brewers said the package to the district included a bank commitment to replace the WHEDA loan, the Miller commitment, concession payments and a report prepared by the Marquette University National Sports Law Institute outlining national stadium financing.
