Father says he will take caning
He blames himself for son's guilty plea
DAYTON, Ohio — Racked by guilt for advising his son to plead guilty to vandalism, George Fay is willing to do the ultimate for the teen-age now-facing six strokes of the lash in Singapore: trade places with him.
The Associated Press
"If you're going to penalize somebody, then penalize me, and I'll take his place," George Fay said this week. Today is the deadline to appeal for a presidential pardon.
reduced counts and was sentenced to six strokes of a split bamboo cane, four months in prison and a $2,230 fine.
Fay's 18-year-old son, Michael, was arrested in October and accused of 53 acts of vandalism, including spray-painting cars.
The elder Fay says he blames himself for advising his son to plead guilty to the reduced charges, not realizing that the judge was going to order his son caned.
In March, he pleaded guilty to
But Fay says he also believes that the caning would be wrong even if his son had taken part in the vandalism.
"But you know what? He didn't ... And he's going to get it anyway," Fay said. "He's going to come out of this thing, and there's going to be a hell of a lot of hatred."
Fay says his son took it hard when he and his wife, Randy, split up in 1984, even though the divorce was amicable.
Fay and his ex-wife each remarried shortly thereafter. They got joint custody of Michael, but he chose to live with his father.
During the next few years, Fay, who has a degree in chemical engineering, moved his family to Kansas City; Erie, Pa.; Chicago and finally the Dayton suburb of Kettering in pursuit of his career. Fay also has two younger sons from his second marriage.
In 1992, Fay agreed to allow his son to enroll in school in Singapore, where Michael's mother was living with her husband. Fay said he warned his son about the strict rules there.
Now, he said, all he can do is hope that his son has "enough inner strength that he'll come out of this OK."
Before his arrest last fall, Fay said, he had grown concerned because Michael's grades had slipped, and he was spending a lot of time with his friends.
Nixon paralyzed on right side after stroke
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Former President Nixon was paralyzed on most of his right side and unable to speak yesterday after suffering a stroke, and doctors tried to determine whether the damage was permanent.
Aides said he was alert and comfortable.
Nixon, 81, was listed in stable condition in intensive care at New York Hospital, where he was taken Monday night after suffering the stroke at his New Jersey home.
night while calls of concern poured into his office.
no medical briefing was scheduled.
Nixon's internist, Michael Glordano, described the former president as paralyzed on the right side except for his right foot.
"He just has a little movement in his foot, on the right side," Johnston said. "There's no speech as of yet. We don't know if it's temporary. We haven't had any kind of prognosis."
Doctors have said that it would be at least 24 hours after the stroke before they would offer an opinion on Nixon's prospects, she said.
Giordano did not return calls, and
Strokes — damage to part of the brain caused by insufficient blood supply — are the nation's third leading cause of death.
Nixon was stricken when he walked into his house from the porch at dinner time, Johnston said.
The former president did not collapse but communicated that he was in distress to his housekeeper, Johnston said.
Nixon was the nation's 37th president, serving from Jan. 20, 1969, to Aug. 9, 1974, when the Watergate scandal forced him to resign.
