The Salisbury post tops out at $71,677, meaning Webster will face a pay cut. Webster, who has family ties here and frequently visits the Eastern Shore, said he plans to spend the remainder of his working life in this job. He has been with the Baltimore County Police Department for 29 years, rising from the position of cadet to his current position. Webster and four other candidates campaigned for the job since February, traveling to Salisbury for a series of interviews with department heads, the mayor and council, and a publicly televised question and answer session. Several factors worked against Harkness in the final days of the search.

Council members said, among other considerations, that they believed Harkness planned to eliminate the mounted police patrol. The job of police chief has been vacant since June 1998 when Tilghman removed former chief Coulbourn Dykes from office because of alleged improprieties in the handling of cars confiscated in drug busts. SEARCH, from Page 1 sive leader on the Eastern Shore." Controversy over which of the two finalists to choose grew when last-minute questions about residency arose last week. Harkness, a senior lieutenant with the New Castle County, Police Department, promised to live in Wicomico County, while Webster wanted to live in Ocean City, where he has a home. After giving tentative approval to Harkness, the council switched their support to Webster when he agreed to live in Wicomico County.

Councilwoman Lavonzella Siggers, who remained opposed to the council's switch, stayed outside council chambers Wednesday, refusing to participate in the meeting. "This is an exercise in futility," she said. "The council unmistakeably gave the go-ahead on two accounts to hire a particular candidate, and now they are just trying to play games with that." Still to be resolved is negotiation of Webster's salary. In his current position, where he supervises 230 people, Web beth Horsey Coulbourn. Her late husband, Leonard Hull, died in 1970.

"It's admittedly on short notice because we got a back log of dealers reporting to us on the numbers of catchings," Lyles said. He also said NMFS would like to give seven days notice. However, posting the quota closing too early also can cause problems. "It can result in a burst of catchings just before the deadline, which causes us to go over the quota," he said. If that occurs, the number above the quota will count against next year's quota.

It has cost him about $10,000 a day in lost revenues this1 June, which is one of the best 'fishing months, he said.

He also said if fishermen had known earlier about the closing, they instead could have released and cleaned the traps.

He said he received notice of the closing last Thursday at 10 a.m. He said some fisherman did not hear until Saturday or Sunday. Though the NMFS said it regrets the short notice, the agency announced the closing.

"We came here because the county wanted us to come," said Sherr. And he said he was happy he did it. "It's interesting how well the town has supported it," he said.

"The people have been very gracious." In turn, the town appears to be appreciative too. "I think the town's reaction has been wonderful," said Al Cohen, town manager.

Though the survival rate for early detection of breast cancer is very high 74 percent prevention remains a focus of cancer research.

The research also could provide some clues toward finding the cure for prostate cancer, which strongly parallels breast cancer in progression and chemical response. If the study produces the expected results, Dooley will have taken a large step in phyto-chemical chemo-preventive research. This type of research, in keeping with the national trend toward homeopathic medicine and natural foods, is ongoing at many other institutions. The Maryland Soybean Board is already pleased with the study's progress. "This is perhaps the most far-reaching research ever to come before our board," said board chairman John Saathoff.

Mr. Marshall was born January 14, 1958, in Saxis. He was the son of the late Norman E. and Billie Jo Baker Marshall. He was a member of the Pentecostal Church, and was a fisherman before becoming ill.

Foe years, researchers have experimented with such anti-estrogen drugs as tamoxifen, which inhibits the reception of estrogen in breast tissue, to treat cancer.

Though anti-estrogen drugs have proven powerful for cancer treatment, they have serious side effects, including higher risk of endometrial cancer, cataracts, pulmonary blood clots and severe hot flashes. In search of safe alternatives, Dooley and other researchers are turning to plant proteins, which appear to have the same effect as tamoxifen lower rates of cancer. The study will focus on preventing precancerous growths, discovered in mammograms, from developing into cancer. Dooley will administer the study to women during the month between their needle biopsy and their lumpectomy, in which a portion of tissue is removed. Half of the women will receive a daily soy protein shake and half will receive a milk protein placebo.

The soy shake will contain approximately 100-120 calories of soy protein, the amount a typical Asian women consumes daily. If Dooley's hypothesis is correct, the women who receive soy protein should have a lower rate of cancer than those who receive the placebo. At a time when baby boomers are becoming more at-risk and an eighth of U.S. women will develop invasive breast cancer in their lifetimes, research of preventive medicine provides hope said Wicomico County Sheriff R. Hunter Nelms, "it's already been investigated and decided everything was okay by the deputy's supervisors.

I just look it over one last time." All agencies basically follow the same procedure if internal investigators believe an officer exhibited excessive force: they hold an administrative hearing, where anything from written reprimands to dismissal could result. It is the sole responsibility of the State's Attorney's Office to decide whether an officer was criminal in his actions or simply in violation of police policy, according to the Baltimore County State's Attorney's Office. "If the state's attorney decides they should be charged, there are no special charges for police officers," duty prosecutor Arthur McGreevey said. "They are charged just like you or I would be with attempted murder, reckless endangerment or assault, in such cases." REVIEW, from Page 1 Department, the investigation into the incident follows the same procedure used for officers who "do anything besides handcuff someone." said Davis. The first step for officers who employ any kind of force during an arrest is to file a "use of force" form, standard procedure for state and county law enforcement agents as well.

In Salisbury, that report is given to a "physical force review board," made up of one officer who serves in the position for one year. Davis said. State police defer to a permanent internal affairs division, while the county and nearby Ocean City appoint internal investigators on an as-needed basis. In all the agencies, that use of force report passes through the chain of command the head of the agency determines whether any action should be taken. "By the time it gets to me."
