(AP Photo) the front of a car carrier, an official 1-ton dead Possible jurors asked about knife collections By Michael Fleeman Associated Press Writer LOS ANGELES Do you own any special knives? Did you ever want to beat up a loved one? Can you handle math? The answers are being used to help decide who makes it and who doesn't on the jury in the O.J. Simpson case. The questions are among 294 asked of prospective jurors in an 80-page form, released Friday by the court. Would-be jurors were grilled on a wide range of issues, from their views on race, domestic violence and Simpson's media image, to their exposure to pretrial publicity in the case, the nature of any cutlery they might own and whether they ever called Simpson's 800-number hot line. The questionnaire also seeks to determine how jurors will handle the vast amount of scientific evidence expected in the case, with questions on their views of DNA analysis and blood tests, and their grasp of concepts." And some questions flatly try weed out people whose minds are already made up: "Do you think 0.J.

Simpson's celebrity status may make it very difficult for you to find him guilty or not guilty regardless of what the evidence shows?" The questionnaires were filled out this week by 304 people who passed the first phase of jury seleotion, which began Monday. Lawyers are. reviewing the completed forms to prepare for the first round of in -person questioning of prospective jurors, set to begin Oct. 12. The answers will help Superior Court Judge Lance Ito and lawyers choose 12 jurors and eight alternates and will help Ito decide whether to order the jury sequestered for the entire trial, which could last six months.

Some of the questions 'explore people's views on the former football star who appeared in commercials and movies and worked as a sportscaster. Several other questions asked about race. Simpson, 47, is black; the victims, ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson, 35, and her friend Ronald Goldman, 25, were white. "How do you feel about interracial marriage?" asked one question. "Have you ever dated person of a different asked another.

Other questions seemed off track: "Have you or anyone close to you undergone an amniocentesis." Another question asked if the would-be juror felt it was "immoral" to undergo an amniocentesis to determine if a fetus had a genetic defect. A common theme in the questionnaire, believed to be one of the most detailed in any criminal case, was potential jurors' reactions to the vast publicity. It asks them to describe witnesses from the preliminary hearing and their impressions of the lawyers and victims. The questionnaire also asks, "Have you seen, read or heard any portion of the 911 calls made by Nicole Brown?" and "If yes, what did you think about the calls." In addition, "Have you seen, read or heard any information regarding the 1989 incident between Nicole Brown and O.J, Simpson?" This is a reference to Simpson's alleged beating of his then-wife. Prospective jurors' feelings about fame were also explored in detail.

One question asked: "Have you ever asked a celebrity for an autograph?" Hero to get his due at last By Ravi Nessman Associated Press Writer CHICAGO When a gunman burst into a school gym and started spraying bullets, Clarence Notree acted as.a human shield for children. He pushed the children out a door to safety and ended up getting shot in the wrist. Most lauded him as a hero. The Chicago Board of Education took a different view until Friday. The board had claimed Notree was not entitled to receive Workers Compensation because saving the children's lives was not part, of his job as a physical education teacher.

After almost three years of fighting Notree's claim, the board announced Friday it would drop its appeal. The board had previously appealed the decision of an arbitrator, who upheld Notree's SHINGLE ROOFING Hot Tar Build-up We Fix Leaks 24 Hr.

Roan St. (Colonial Center) Johnson City, TN 282-1075 Diversions don't stop bill in end The Associated Press WASHINGTON The District of Columbia's government faced a post-midnight shutdown because of Congress' failure to approve its budget. So the Senate snapped into action Friday: It spent hours debating the baseball strike. And that wasn't the only diversion.

Attached to the budget of the nation's capital were measures cracking down on crime and health-care fraud. Other amendments were waiting in the wings, including provisions calling for U.S. withdrawal from Haiti, ending taxpayer health insurance for members of Congress, and allowing communities to refuse to accept out-of-state garbage. But as if by magic, senators late Friday afternoon suddenly withdrew their amendments. That completed action on the bill and sent it to the White House.

Sound weird? Maybe, but it's standard procedure in the Senate, especially when Congress nears adjournment for the year, as it is doing now. "I don't like the fact that nongermane amendments are offered to a bill," lamented Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, D. Maine, as the Senate began sorting through the logjam. "But I am the majority leader, not the king of the Senate." Watching from the other side of the Capitol was a bemused Rep. Julian Dixon, chairman of the House Appropriations Committee's subcommittee that had helped write the spending bill.

"I saw a sign once that read, Republicans are our foes, but the enemy is the Senate," he said. By Friday afternoon, Sen. Howard Metzenbaum, D-Ohio, had withdrawn his amendment partially removing major league baseball's antitrust exemption. And behind the scenes, Mitchell and Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole, seemed on the verge of persuading other senators to withdraw their amendments, too, which would free the district's budget for shipment to President Clinton for his signature. "Most of the time, when they bring down all their forces on a Friday when people want to get out of town, they're pretty successful at it," said one admiring congressional aide.

Mitchell and Dole were getting some help. Sen. Paul Simon, said he had gotten a telephone call Friday morning from Eleanor Holmes Norton, the district's delegate to the House. As a result, he. said, he decided not to introduce an amendment that would have established a museum for African-American culture on Washington's mall, and will pursue the measure next week instead.

"I don't want to be causing problems for D.C.," said Simon in an interview. Sen. William Cohen, R-Maine, said he agreed to drop his amendment cracking down on healthcare fraud after Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole, asked him to do so. "I hope to sometime next week find another vehicle" to which the provision can be attached, Cohen said. $13,000 claim.

One appeal attempt was rejected Thursday. Board of Education spokeswoman Dawne Simmons did not return telephone calls seeking comment on the decision not to pursue another appeal. On Sept. 17, 1991, Notree was running about 30 pupils through basketball drills at Woodson North Elementary School when he heard gunshots. Without turning to see the gunman, Notree ran to the children, some as young as 8, spread out his arms and got them to safety.

"There were some kids that were kind of mesmerized when the shots started," he said. "I just them run over to the other gymnasium and I was hit." The gunman was never caught. Notree lost 20 percent of the use of his right wrist and has trouble swinging a baseball bat and playing sports that require use of his wrist.

Ad by Rusty Crowe Zimmerman's Hallmark National Boss Day Sunday, Oct. 16th University Plaza The Mall Roan Centre Elizabethton Bristol Greeneville After the shooting, Woodson North Principal William Taylor praised Notree for his bravery. The school board paid Notree $1,410 for sick leave as he recovered from his wound and its health insurance program covered his medical bills. But it rejected his Workers Compensation claim.

Notree's claim then went to the Illinois Industrial Commission, which awarded him $13,447 after an arbitration hearing.
