The legislature will consider the changes when members return in the fall. Ryan also signed legislation dealing with death certificates. Hie new law increases the cost of each certified copy of a death certificate by $2. The new law, sponsored by Rep. Angelo "Skip Saviano, R-Elm-wood Park, went into effect the moment Ryan signed it.

3 A certified death certificate typically costs $7 for the first copy and $2 to $4 for additional copies. Gov. George H. Ryan said he's concerned that inmates who need medical attention will put it off if state law requires they pay $2 every time they seek medical or dental care. For that reason he proposed making changes to legislation sponsored by Rep.

Mike Bost, R-Murphysboro, and Sen. William L. O'Daniel, D-Mount Vernon. The legislators said they sponsored the legislation to prevent inmates from abusing the system. The inmates currently pay nothing for health care.

Prisoners still would not be charged for emergency medical services. Ryan said he supports the intent, but is concerned that inmates might not seek routine care and allow a situation to become an emergency.

Lewis Lane, Carbondale, IL S1S-529-5355 thought the steer would be OK despite temperatures hovering around 100 degrees, but wasn't so sure how well fair visitors would endure the tropical heat. Thursday afternoon attendance, never large, was pretty much nonexistent. "I know it's hurting the crowd," he said.

"They just don't want to be out here." It's been a common scene along oven-hot midways from Amboy to Urbana in recent weeks. The summer heat synonymous with county fairs has turned dangerous, and people are staying away. "Clearly everybody's attendance is down," said Mike Murphy, chief of special events for the state Agriculture Department, whose job in cludes traveling from fair to fair. The six or seven fairs Murphy visited in the middle of the state during the last two weeks saw attendance drops of 10 to 40 percent, he estimated. The DuPage County Fair was down from a record year of 232,000 visitors last year to just 126,700 during its July 21-25 run, which was marked by rain and extreme heat.

"The weather is something you can't do anything about, unless you have a big dome you can build over the fairgrounds and fill with air-conditioning," joked fair manager Ellen Sietmann. While the DuPage fair is big enough to weather a bad run with little effect, it's tougher for smaller fairs that count on the money from one year to maintain their grounds and guarantee a good show for the next year. "It's going to put us in a crunch," said Marilyn Sluppert, treasurer of the Lee County 4-H Center Board, who saw attendance at the fair near Amboy take a nose dive last weekend. Three people were overcome by heat over the fair's three-day run. They recovered much better than attendance, which Mrs.

Shippert estimated was down as much as half from an average daily paid attendance of 1,200. That likely will mean cutting back spending on entertainment and amusements for next year, she said. OREGON (AP) With electric fans buzzing in the background, the crowd of sweltering hogs panted softly in the barn, trying to get more comfortable in the oppressive heat gripping the Ogle County Fair. Sweating teen-agers scurried from pen to pen as if they were fast-moving rain clouds, showering cool water as the pink and brown hogs raised their snouts to savor the moisture. Hogs don't sweat, so they relied on the water and breezes both natural and electric to keep from overheating.
