AP reports Ohio officials favor offshore drilling with safeguards while county sportsmen urge caution. Dr Maurice K Goddard says lake geology and lease protections reduce pollution risk as lawmakers consider bills to ban drilling. Dave DeHaven counters that the lake already has pollution and opposes adding more. An aerial tour of Canadian lake operations precedes a planned debate on the bans. Fire blamed on vigilantes destroys a suburban Houston theater over a controversial Swedish film.
