President, Many U.S. Senators Say Goodbye To Sen. Chafee
By Terrence Petty
The Associated Press
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - President Clinton, more than half the Senate and other dignitaries celebrated the late Sen. John Chafee yesterday as one of the country's great politicians.
Chafee, one of the Senate's last Republican moderates, died of congestive heart failure last Sunday at age 77.
A horse-drawn carriage, accompanied by six Marine pallbearers, carried Chafee's body from the Rhode Island State House to Grace Episcopal Church.
The funeral drew 51 of Chafee's Senate colleagues, along with 14 former senators, President and Hillary Rodham Clinton, three members of Clinton's Cabinet, and many state officials.
It was one of the biggest turnouts of national figures for the funeral of a U.S. senator - a reflection of the admiration Chafee earned during four decades of public service, including 23 years in the Senate.
He had a reputation for honesty and integrity, and for choosing compromise over partisan politics, and former Sen. John Danforth of Missouri said the nation needs more politicians like Chafee.
"In politics there is a premium on finding issues that divide us because divisiveness is a vote-getter," Danforth said. "John Chafee bound us together. That's why he was universally respected in the Senate."
Chafee was a former secretary of the Navy, governor of Rhode Island for six years, and before that a member of the Rhode Island Legislature.
In the Senate, he spearheaded efforts to protect the environment and expand health care and child care.
Before leaving the White House for Chafee's funeral, Clinton announced that he will honor the late senator by naming the 40th ship of the Arleigh Burke class of guided-missile destroyers after him.

That's quite a boat you have there, Walter.
Doesn't it belong to old Van Der Hoeven?
- No!
- Whose is it, then?
- Mine.
- How did you get it?
- I bought it from old Van Der Hoeven.
- What with?
American dollars.
You've never had more than $200
at one time since I've known you.
You can't tell me Van Der Hoeven
sold you an $18,000 launch for $200.
- No, it cost me $400.
- $400?
You know, that's exactly
the way he said it.
Only, I pointed out to him
he might as well sell
it to me as let the
Japanese have it for free.
What impresses me, Walter, is the
fact that you even had $400.
Well, I didn't.
I only had 200,
just as you said.
I owe him the rest.
Well, come along. Lend a hand.
Come on.
Empty hands
make idle minds.
Here, pick those up.
No, no, no.
Two, come on.
Contemplating nature can be fascinating ?
Do you know what the coastwatching
service is, Walter?
- I beg your pardon?
- The coast watching service.
It's a chance to become a hero.
Why would I want to do that?
It's a cushy assignment for anyone
who knows these waters intimately.
With never a dull moment, I can tell you!
Working behind the enemy lines...
Stebbings, please.
Walter, listen to me.
There's nothing to it really. Each man is
assigned an island, often uninhabited.
He stays there alone and
radios to headquarters
any movement of Japanese
planes or ships which...
- You're not listening to me, are you?
- Hold it, hold it.
Hey, hey, hey! Come on! Beat it, scram!
Come on! Get off!
Did you hear what I was saying?
- No, what were you saying?
- About the coastwatchers.
Matalava will be in the centre of things
when the Japanese move towards New Guinea.
It's important work, Walter.
Damned important.
I'd like you to volunteer.
Oh, I'd love to, Frank,
but I've only just volunteered for
another important watching service,
the 'Watch Out For
Walter Eckland' service.
A great many lives are
at stake, Mr Eckland.

Statement on Naming a Guided Missile Destroyer for Senator John H. Chafee
October 30, 1999
I am honored to announce today that the 40th ship of the Arleigh Burke class of guided missile destroyers will be named in honor of the late Senator John H. Chafee of Rhode Island. Senator Chafee distinguished himself throughout a life dedicated to serving our Nation as a United States Senator, as Secretary of the Navy, as Governor of Rhode Island, and as a United States Marine in World War II and the Korean war. Given Senator Chafee's long association with the sea—with the Marine Corps, the Navy, and the great maritime State of Rhode Island—I can think of no better way to honor his many contributions than to name a warship in his honor.
The ship named in honor of Senator Chafee will be one of the most technologically advanced ships in the United States Navy. It will be capable of performing a wide range of missions in support of U.S. national security. Whether showing the flag in peacetime to build good will with other nations or employing its potent combat power in conflict, the ship will carry on Senator Chafee's legacy of honorable service to our Nation.

As the investigation moved forward day-by-day and month-by-month, the task force detectives became more convinced that Yates was their man. He fit the general identification of the suspect who had attacked Smith including age and appearance right down to the pockmarked face, he drove a white Corvette and a Honda Civic and, they learned, he was a member of the Washington National Guard and served in the capacity of a helicopter pilot!

A Link
After negotiating a price for her services, she told her "date" to drive to a parking lot behind a clinic on East 400 Fifth Street. While en route to the location, the "date" told her that he was a helicopter pilot with the National Guard. Smith said that she asked the man if he was the "psycho killer," and he had responded that he was not. He told her that he had five kids and would not do something like that. After arriving in the parking lot, the man paid her $40 for oral sex. They went to the rear of the van and got onto the raised mattress, where the man pulled down his pants and she performed oral sex on him for approximately 5 to 7 minutes. During the entire time, she said, his penis did not become erect. At one point after the 5 to 7 minute period, the man hit her over the head with something, but she wasn't sure what he hit her with.

WASHINGTON - With his presidency at risk, President Clinton reversed course Monday and acknowledged engaging in sex with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky, then apologized publicly for a relationship that he denied under oath earlier this year.
"I did have a relationship with Miss Lewinsky that was not appropriate. In fact, it was wrong," the president said in a televised address after more than four hours of grand jury testimony.
