Weather and death toll mark harsh Ohio storm weekend
The storm swept across Ohio bringing cold, snow, and traffic delays. John Keller, 50, of East Cleveland, died from exposure as his body was found in a truck on a Cleveland street. Five others died in weekend crashes as road conditions kept motorists cautious. Temperatures will stay cold then rise midweek with mixed precipitation. Snow closed many secondary roads, especially in eastern counties, while most primary roads were only slippery in spots. The storm originated south of the state, moved north, and was described as the first general snowstorm of the winter in Ohio, with a traffic jam in Columbus and a large turnout for the Ohio State Iowa game.

Lawmaker Says Government Is Shirking Duty In Education
Democratic congressman Rep Lee Metcalf of Montana charged the federal government with shirking responsibility in education. He coauthored the Murray Metcalf bill seeking federal aid and told 20,000 educators at the American Association of School Administrators convention that local property taxes fund schools and that more federal support is needed. Governor Nelson Rockefeller of New York echoed calls for tax power relief and federal aid for school construction. Metcalf urged grass roots support for a bill seeking 1.1 million in federal grants for classroom construction and teachers salaries, noting the federal share is currently under four cents of each education dollar and would remain under 10 cents under his plan.
