[ale] Netscape, CSS, and fonts

I have a page I am updating (http://duck.clayton.edu/index-new2.html). It
uses some basic CSS stuff in it, and looks mostly pretty in IE5.5.  Some
changes left to make, but it works for now.

I pulled it up in Netscape on Win and it looked okay.  I then tried it in
Netscape 4.75 on Linux, and it looks horid.  The problem is that for some
elements, I have a style that says to use Arial, Helvetica, or Sans-Serif
for the font...yet on Netscape on Linux, even though Helvetica is there,
it refuses to use it.  I've tried telling it to use other fonts, and it
still won't.

I put an image of it in NS at http://duck.clayton.edu/YUCK.jpg

What do I need to do to get the Linux netscape to view this properly?

Thanks!
