-B-4 The Orlando Sentinel, Tuesday, February 11, 1992 Motor vehicles boss dies in Tallahassee Ex-sect member tells of day Yahweh showed human ear Utility debate centers on cost, politics UTILITY from B-1 wood for $21.5 million in 1988. Supporters of the sale say $25 million is a good price because owners have pumped $6 million into the plant since 1988 to upgrade its performance. Some appraisals have set its worth at more than $30 million. Sale opponents, however, cite the Public Service Commission's $4 million valuation of the utility. Since no one else will buy it, why pay a premium price, they say.

The Seminole County Democratic Executive Committee opposes the sale, saying $25.4 million is too much. And party Chairman Bill Gilmartin calls it "scary" that control of Sanlando's water and sewer rates would shift from the state Public Service Commis sion to the Republican-dominated county government. The Thomas Jefferson Club, another group of Democrats, opposes the deal for similar reasons. The Republican Executive Committee did not take a stand. Vice chairman Theresa Coker said there are committee members leading both sides of the issue.

A letter to the county by Friends of the Wekiva and the Florida Audubon Society has been misread as a full endorsement, said Friends of the Wekiva president Nancy Prine. The two groups did not intend to pass judgment on the sale and merely supported water conservation measures planned by Wekiva Utilities, she said. She said the letter should have been clearer. If the sale and those conservation plans die, the two groups plan to renew their challenge to Sanlando's five-year operating permit from the state Department of Environmental Regulation. The public hearing is at 7 p.m.

in the county auditorium at 1101 E. First Sanford. fessed to seven slayings and is serving 22 years in prison, told jurors he and other members of The Brotherhood returned with human ears after stabbing white men to death. On Monday, Glover said The Brotherhood was a peaceful group that held weekly discussions with Yahweh. "Did you have to murder someone?" defense attorney Thomas Buscaglia asked.

"No, sir," Glover replied. But Glover did testify that he played a role in the 1986 firebomb-ing of a Delray Beach neighborhood. He admitted throwing Molo-tov cocktails at a house. "I hit the porch of one," Glover said. Glover said Yahweh ordered the attack after several sect members were beaten during a visit to Del-ray Beach.

After the firebombing, Glover said Yahweh preached, "Yahweh gets revenge." iii 'i' 1 Tallahassee Leonard Mellon, the head of Florida's De-apartment of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, died Monday, one day after being stricken at his home with a heart attack. Mellon, 61, headed the agency since 1984 when he was appointed executive director by former Gov. Bob Graham and the Cabinet. The agency employs about 5,200 people statewide and is responsible for licensing drivers, register- ing vehicle titles and overseeing the activities of the Florida Highway Patrol. However, Attorney General Bob Critics say tax was based on SCHOOLS from B-1 The sentiment has not been lost on school board members.

"That's probably one of the areas we'll look at real hard this year to cut administration to schools," said Lake County School Board Chairman Tim Sullivan. "That's the first place to go before we go to the classroom." But it is not clear just which administrators are expendable. Critics of the TaxWatch report say many district-level employees are not pure administrators. Some have day-to-day contact with students. "These are education people," said William Pelaia of the Florida Tasters try Shad and say it's not bad SHAD from B-1 Conner, the state's Lake Apopka restoration coordinator.

For decades, nearby farmers have kept their fields dry by pumping extra water loaded with fertilizers containing phosphorus into the lake. Algae in the water have thrived on the phosphorus, choking off the lake and turning it pea green. Shad, meanwhile, absorb the phosphorus as they eat microscopic plants. The state figures it can get rid of some of the phosphorus by netting three tons of shad a year. But there's one problem: What to do with all that fish? A 1990 study found that gizzard shad are either too expensive for or inappropriate to use in fertilizer or pet food.

Pet food makers can get other ingredients free. The fish costs too much to catch and transport to use in fertilizer. That leaves one economical al-' ternative. Eat them. Unfortunately, gizzard shad, which weigh about l'i pounds each, are full of tiny bones that are hard to remove.

So cooking i'f shad requires some extra effort. That's where Monday's workshop came in. The state Bureau of Seafood Marketing wanted to Butterworth has sought to dismantle the agency, consoli-dating some functions with Mellon the Department of Agriculture and moving the state patrol to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. During Mellon's tenure as director, the agency established a child care center and a worksite kindergarten, both firsts for Florida government. ASSOCIATED PRESS group's study old numbers Association of School Administrators.

"I think they're massaging the numbers to give them scare tactics." The TaxWatch analysis, based on state education statistics, showed the largest jumps in district-level employment were for curriculum-related administrative positions, such as "subject-area specialists" and "assistants for instruction." The analysis also showed that the number of school-level administrators such as principals, librarians and guidance counselors grew by just 4.3 percent. Meanwhile, the number of support personnel such as bus drivers and secretaries grew by 22.4 percent. Dorosoma cepedianum Top length: 18 inches Weight: 1 V4 to 4 pounds Color: Silvery with a grayish-blue body fading to a lighter belly. They often have dark stripes running horizontally along the upper sides. Facts: The shad is a schooling fish found from Canada south to Mexico, where they inhabit rivers, streams, lakes, bays and bayous.

A member of the herring family, the fish is being called Florida shad by the state Bureau of Seafood Marketing to make it sound more edible. Source: The state Bureau of Seafood Marketing show people how to prepare the fish, which have been tested and shown to be pollution free. Tom Thomas, a state culinary specialist, cooked up shad chili, meat salad, sausage and other dishes. About a dozen people sampled the fare, giving it relatively good reviews. "I'd recommend it," said Pearce, mayor of Montverde in Lake County.

"It's good." fifi There had been some rumors about deal making and those issues were put to rest by the leadership saying there were no deals in the offing. Rep. Willie Logan minority lawmakers. Last Thursday night, Wetherell and Johnson met with Hispanics at an eggplant parmigiana dinner at lobbyist Jack Corry's house. The Legislature is creating new districts to reflect changes in Florida's population measured by the 1990 census.

The state will get 23 congressional districts, a gain of four. The process is a long way from over, as neither house has approved a plan. One reason some black representatives are willing to settle for two districts instead of four is a proposal pending in the Senate would create a black district running from Chattahoochee to Jacksonville to Orlando. That district presumably would be on the table when senators and representatives meet later in the session to hammer out the final plan. MIAMI HERALD MIAMI One day in 1986, Yahweh Ben Yahweh carried a human ear in a brown paper bag.

He proudly displayed it, exclaiming, "See this hairy devil!" a former sect member testified Monday. "He said I should rejoice, and I said, 'Praise said Jeff Glover, a former Yahweh elder. "I was kind of astonished" to see Yahweh carrying the ear, Glover told prosecutor Richard Scruggs. Glover said he thought the ear came from a white victim, but he did not say how Yahweh got it. Prosecutors allege that the religious leader required members of a secretive group called The Brotherhood to randomly kill "white devils" and bring back body parts as proof.

That's two less than the four black-access seats drawn by the Black Legisla- tive Caucus. Rep. Willie Logan, D-Opa-locka, chairman of the Black Legislative Caucus, said members support their plan first but nine of 12 black representatives will support the compromise if their proposal fails. The House compromise plan bows to Hispanics by creating two 65 percent Hispanic districts in the Miami area. Democratic lead- ers first proposed plans that would guarantee Hispanics one seat.

Rep. Miguel DeGrandy, R-' Miami, said the compromise looks i good but warned, "Things are still fluid enough that you could still see some surprises on the floor."
