Lorain Schools face an academic emergency after scoring only two of 27 state standards for 1998-99. Editor notes the district must address academics while pursuing a $23.5 million bond with $92.6 million in state facility funds. A 21-member committee will review the plan, with a potential November bond vote. Lorain and Elyria districts both struggle academically while eyeing building improvements.

Cal Thomas reports in Des Moines on George W. Bush’s campaign stance ahead of the Iowa primary. Bush projects increased confidence, pledges the most ethical administration, stresses life ethics, anti abortion realism, and refrains from negative tactics while promising reform, tax cuts, and stronger military. He cites stages of campaign perception and underestimates himself as a strategic advantage.
