TEHRAN,Iran (UPI)- Bloody battles broke out between
imperial troops and anti-Mah demonstrators today In the
ancient Persian capital of Isfahan.
Reports from Isfahan, south of Tehran, said troops opened
fire Cll demonstrators, wounding dozens.
Wilnessea said anti-Mah mobs were rampaging through
the city, setting fires .
Today's outbreak followed day-long rioting in tbe city
Mooday after Savak secret police reportedly shot five persons
tD death In a mass attack on the local headquarters of the
dreaded secret pollee.
Four cinemas, a restaurant and a bank were set on fire
and several other publlc and private buildings were attacked
by angry mobs Monday.
Firat reports said demonsirators attacked numerous buildIngs.
.
Political sources said most of Iran's sprawling countryside
and far Dung provincial cities were in the grip of unrest,
althoU~th Tehran was cabn after two days of massive anti.,hah

marches.
Industrial strikes continued in many government
ministries and factories. The worst hit was Iran's $22 billion a
year oil industry, where production SBS!led tD 1.2 million
barrels a day, one of the lowest output levels since a strike
began in early October.
Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi remained secluded in his
vast Niavaran Palace today, canceling a scheduled public
appearance.
.
No official reason was given for the cancellation of ' the
shah'sappearance at religious rites at Tehran's Grand Sepahsalar Mosque, where tens of thousands of ahti-&lt;lhah demonstra!Drs packed the streets.
'Jliey were kept out of range of the palace by army troops,
silhouetted against a line of Chieftain tanks.
The mosque rites were tD be the part of the annual mourning
ceremonies for the martyred grandson of Mohammed. Normally the 10-day period is climaxed by frenzied self-

shah than physically punished themselves.
The U.S. Slate Department estimated Monday that over
6,000 Americans have left Iran in tbe past six months.
Millions of men and women, some carrying infants in their
arms, screamed "Death to the shah," denounced President
carter for his support of the shah and cried "Yankee Go
Home" as tbey swarmed through Iran's major cities Sunday
and Monday.
In Tehran, the army took positions that blocked access to the
northern quarter where the shah and most Westerners live.
There were no incidents in Tehran during tbe eight-hour
march. But troops fired on antishah demonstrators in Isfahan,
ancient Iran's pictureque capital, and patrolled other cities
under strict orders not to intervene.
The troops did not intervene even as anti-&lt;lhah demonstrators pulled down statues of the monarch in Mashad and Islahan and burned them .
Relieved officials Monday night praised the anny's attitude
fla~ellation, but this year more Iranians v~rbally a++Arked 1 he that, they said, prevented a bloodbath on the holiest Shiite

Pomeroy-Middleport, Ohio
Tuesday, December 12, 1978

Some degree of normalcy returned to Po.meroy
this morning as the Ohio River slowly ,receded
after cresting two and a half feet over flood stage
Sunday evening.
·
Most stores reopened this morning after
having had· a wild weekend working feverishly
until early morning hours Sunday moving
merchandise to higher levels after the Old Ohio
went on the rampage Saturday.
A number of those where stock was moved did
not actually get water since the flood did not reach
its predicted 53 foot crest.
The river receded slowly Monday, only about
one-tenth of a foot .an hour. Street department
workers and firemen were cleaning the Main St.
flooded area as the ri\&lt;er receded. They were
hampered by traffi~ trying to get through the
area, However, Main St. was cleaned and ready
for use Tuesday.
On Monday schools in the Southern District
were closed due to high water. Classes at all
Meigs County schools were being held today .
Water was still prevalent along the edges of the
parking lots running along the Ohio River on
Tuesday morning .a nd the lots were blocked off
from traffic thereby making parking spaces quite
limited.
Street department workers were clearing the
lots of mud and debris being left by the water.

Instructor still loves Army
FORT JACKSON, S. C. (UP!) - Drill Sgt. Willie
Alexander of Timmonsville says he still loves the Army
despite being reduced tD private and receiving a six-month
prison terin and a $2,672 fine for the heat-stroke death of an
Ohio recruit.
"I have no regrets about ever joining the Army or
volunteering tD become a drill sergeant," he said Monday after
a court-martial board of four officers and three enlisted
members found him guilty of involuntary manslaughter and .
dereliction of duty.

By RICK VAN SANT
United Press International
The Ohio River, which
usually measures about 29
feet deep at Cincinnati, has
doubled in depth at the high
point of the river's worst
flooding in more than a
decade . .
The river, forecast to crest
about noon today at 58.5 feet,
6.5 feet above Cincinnati's 52foot Dood level, forced dozens
of people in low-lying areas tD
temporarily evacuate their

homes and caused authorities
to de!Dur iraffic from several
water-covered highways.
The flooding in the
Cincinnati area climaxed
several days of overflow
water along Ohio shores. The
Ohio River forms aU 450
miles of Ohio's southern and
southeastern border.·
The river, which began
climbing in the wake of last
week's heavy rain throughout
the Ohio Valley , reached
higher and higher Dood levels

as it rolled downstream
because of ·the increasing
number of rainswollen,
major tributaries feeding it.
However, the flooding in
Ohio was not as bad as had
been feared over the weekend
and not nearly as bad. as in
neighboring Kentucky.
The river crested at 49 feet
Sunday in Pomeroy, Ohio,
where flood stage is 46.6 feet,
· increased 00 54 !eel early
Monday near Ironton,
climbed to 56.5 feet . late
Monday at Portsmouth,
where flood stage is 50 f~t .
and figured to hit its highest
levels in the state in
Cincinnati today.
Beyond Ohio, the flood level
is expected to worsen later in
the week along the KentuckyIndiana border, with, for
example, a crest nine feet
above flood stage predicted
Thursday in Louisville.

Cincinnati's expected crest
of 58.5 feet marks the highest
the river has been since
March, 1961, when it hit 59.6
feet.
Late last week, as ·rain
continued to fall, river
forecasters had feared the
flood level would top 60 feet in
Cincinnati this week. But
when the rain abrutply
stopped at week's end and
extreme cold weather began
freezing
some
minor
tributarie s, the flooding
turned out to be not quite as
bad as originally forecast.
Still, the flooding did force
the evacuation of nwnerous
homes along the river just
east of Cincinnati.
In New Richmond, a state
of emergency was declared in
order to permit National
Guardsmen to help move
people and their belongings

control o! moderate politicians and clergy men who appeared
intent on proving they had the mass following .
"Shah, beware, yo ur son is also young - stop killing our
youth, " screamed thousands of women, their ankle-length
·
black veils covering their blue 'jeans and sneakers.
"Death to the shah, the bloodsucking shah " and "down with
Carter" rang out as the human mass heaved across, east to
west, along a road dotted with monuments to the shah.
The marchers pun ctuated their chants with rhythmic
striking of cymbals and drums, part of the mourning rites.
The protesters also burned four movie theaters , the Thousand and One Nights Restaurant and a bank.
In the southern town of Dezful, a policeman shot and killed
his commanding officer Monday after he was ordered to open
fire on demon strators.

Board okays $574,681 budget cut Peopletalk

Bengals upset Los Angeles, 20-19

By ltelUielb R. Clark

Meeting In resuJar session
Saturday, the Gallla CoWity
,Local Board of Ji:ducatlon
approved a 1$74,811 cut from
the S)'lttm'a 19'19 calendar
year budget.
Accordlnll to Superin·
tendent Tom Hairston, the
budget was trimmed from ita
orlllinall$,962,4941n an effort
to stabilize tbe board's
finances to avoid the
posslbUity of closing the
schooill.
Halnton said Monday that
the budget cut was facilitated
by the defeat of the board's
projlo8ed 2.9 mill operating
levy on Nov. 7.
Halnton further stated that
state flUids which had been
carried over dUrtng the 1978
calendar year from 1977
would be exhausted in
January 1979.
The budget cuts Include a
$70,500 reduction In the
amoWit allocated for supplies.
Thill cut will, according to
Hairston, place parenta In the
position ef having Ill pay for
workbooks and other supplies

formerly furnished through
the schools.
Hairston said Monday that
In the future ·parents will
have to pay an estimated $25
a year per pupil for those
materials.
The
board
further
authorized a $110,000 budget
cut In the area of Instruction.
According to Hairston, it
will probably te necessary to
change some boWidary lines
in the district's attendance
areas In order to equalize the
number of students in the
system's schools.

Qaetti&lt;lll: Is It true that repeated trawna to the breast can
cause breast cancer?
A111nrer: No jrOOf bas ever been given to support this oftheard statement. The only lumps which can be produced In the
breast aa a result of trauma are benign and caused by scars or
hematomaa (blood clots). However, repeated trauma to an
area of the body can, over a period of time, produce skin ·
cancer.Suchcancers arenothighlymaliiiJiant and do not have
the tendency of mere lllBlillnant growths to spread to the
remainder of the body. Occaslooally, we hear about cancer in
a leg booe being brought about by an injury, but really what
has probably happened Ia that the injury draws attention to a
cancel' not previously dlscover!!d. It is then implicated as the
cause simply because the Injury and discovery followed one
another in time.
NOtwlthstandln8 tbe lack of scientific· evidence, many
times the courta have held that trauma produced a tumor. The
single 1110111; c1111mm eumple is that of meningioma ol the
brain produced by a head injury. Again, these decisions are not
suppcrted by competent medical authority. Such rulings, then,
repreeent legal opiniooa and not medical findings.
QUmi'I10N: In light of the seriousness of cancer, don't
you think that food preservatives should be more rigidly
coolrolled? ·
AniWer: Thill is a hard question to answer, but there is
always the danger ol "throwing the baby out with the bath
water" when we make rules and regulations to govern lsrge
segments of our mvlronment without good proof of cause and
effect. For ln!tance, health fond addicts have asserted
ccrrectly that the preservative commonly uSed in peanut
butter Ia carcinogenic. However,lt Is a very mild carcinogen
and the mold it prevents from forming has very strong cancercaUBing properties.ln fact, the mold leveillln several brands of
"health food" peanut butter were fOWid to be extremely high.
So in thlll case, the risk ill much less with the "regular" peanut
butter.
There are many factcrs which influence susceptibility to
cancer such as auua1 promiscuity, alcohol consumption,
smoking and aabeatoa ei()OSUI'e which we can control with a
greater likelihood of prevention than trylns to control the
pr,eservatives In our food. Instead of worrying about these
additives I would recommend regular medical checkups with
roullne Pap smears and aillmoidoscoplc elUllllS.
Qaettt... : A friend who is into health foods told me
recently that a higher percentage of people in the United States
get cancer every year than in any other country. Is this
correct?
Anlwer: No! The U.S. ranka 19!h in cancer of men and
18th In cancer of women. Aillo remember that in many
countries the rules «ir regularions which require reporting to a
central agmcy are more Lu: than In the U.S. and this tends to
lower the rates these countries report. How false information
becomes popular Ia not always certain. For lnatance, it was
once thought that microwave ovens, certain toothpastes,
flourinated water, and aluminum pots and pans were
carcinogenic, but IMJIIIe people refuse to believe the scienllfic
evidence and still consider them aa cause of cancer.

I made an appointment with
the foot doctor for him and
said, "Go." The doctor look~d
at his feet and at his shoes

throw them out in a short

DEAR READER - There

bad foot odor. Certainly inflammation or irritation of
the feet can contribute to the
problem. Most corns ·and

The Cincinnati Bengala, a
team tllat lost Its first eight
games, are as good as any
club in the National Football
League,
Wbo·says so?
Their coach, that's who.
"We've become a good
team, as good as any going
mto the playoffs," claimed
Homer Rice, who took over
six games into the season
when Bill Johnson was fired.
"We started slow this
season,"

NEW YORK (UPI) -The first time I ever saw Bob Lemon
he was taking groWJd balls at third base during batting
practice for the WilkesBarre Barons of the Eastern League,
and what struck me most about him was how remarkably
composed he looked for a 1~year-old kid.
That was 38 years ago, back in 1940 before he had even come
up with Cleveland. He was a third baseman then, not a pitcher,
but he had all the earmarks of &amp;!big leaguer already.
The Ia.,t.time I saw Bob Lemon was only a few daya ago and
he was sitllng in the lobby of the bote! sel'Ving as general
headquarters for .the winter baseball meetings In Orlando,
F1a., just as calm and serene as when I first saw him nearly 40
years ago.
·
Essenllally, that is the character of Bob Lemon, truly a man
for all seasons as well as all eras, one who never changes
personality regardless of how much all the others around him
do.
Within the past eight weeks, the even-dlsposltioned 58-yearold 'New York Yankees' manager bas been Oil an emotional
roller coaster. He lived through one of the most exhilarating
experiences of ~ life the night of Oct. 17 when he suddenly
found himself the winning manager of the world champions,
only to be plunged into the deepest possible anguish two weeks
later due to the death of his youngest son, Jerry, as a result of a
road accident.
. It was completely typical of Bob Lemon that in both cases his
first thoughts revolve&lt;! around others rather thari himself.
I remember how the media surrounded him in the Yankees'
steamy, crowded quarters at Ilodller Stadium right after the
final out of the World Series asking him how he felt about
haying been fired by t!le White Sox only three montha before
and now being king of the mountain so soon afterward. But
instead of crowing over the circumstance, Lemon spoke of the
great contributions made by some of his players like Bucky
Dent, BriBn Doyle, Ron Guidry, Catfish Hunter and Goose
Gossage.
When his son died at the age of28 on Oct. 311n Phoenix, Ariz.,
Lemon's grief was enormous, yet it was Indicative of his
thoughUulness for others that he asked aU those who wished to
send flowers send a contribution instead to the Aasociatloo of
Professional Baseball Players, whlcb helps sick and downand-out exballplayers.
Chuck Stevens, who once played first base for the St. Louis
Browns and does a magnificent job ol running the Aasoclatloo,
located In Long Beach, Calif., is one of Bob Lemon's ciOASt
frlenda. They went to grade achool together in Long Beach and
have known each other more than 40 years. Jerry I..emoo was
like a son to Cbuck Stevens and Stevens delivered the eulogy at
the funeral service.
·
So far, $4,100 bas been sent'to the APBP in memory of Jerry
Lemon and money is still coming ln. That's even more than the
Association received right after Casey Stengel died, which
glve8 you some idea of how the general baseball community
feeill about Bob Lemon.
During his 12seasops with Cleveland, Lemon won 1Al or more
games seven times, pitched 31 shutouts, waa named to the
American League AllStar team sevm straight yeara and was
so good with the bat, he waa employed as a pinch hitter many
times. Yet, ooe of his fermer coachea, the late Muddy Ruel,
mce saldofhlm "he couldn't act like a bf41sbotlfhetrled."
AI Rolen, a former teanunate of Lemon 'a with the Indlana
and his Immediate boss now with the Yankees, is the one who
hand-plcke!l him as the Yankees' new manager after BWy
Martin departed In July, Yankee owner George Steinbrenner
alllo Is a Lemon admirer, having hired him aa the club's
pitching· coach two years ago.
'
As matters now stand, Lemon Ia ticketed to move Into the
front office aa the Yankees' general manager at the end of neil
lleiUJon and Marlin Ia suppoaed to come liack aa field manager.
Tbat's perfectly OK with Lemoo but If there's a change of
plans 1001ewhere along the way, he'll go alq with them.
Tbat'a the way he Is. He's a good soldier.

A suit filed in federal court
seeks $500,000 in damages
from Cincinnati Reds'
catcher Johnny Bench and
other defendants, for a New
Jersey woman who claims
the batting machine the
baseball star endorses,
malfucctioned and blinded
her in me eye.
Claudia Sandelin, of Salem,
N.J., filed the suit Mooday in
connection with Injuries

Bench Batter-Up" machine
-a mechanical device which
tosses a plastic ball for
batting practice.
The suit aillo named as
defendants the Cincinnati
Reds baseball club, the Fonas
Corp. of Latrobe, Pa.,
of
the
manufacturer
machine, and Ruddy's
Sporting Goods of Salem
where the plaintiff purchased
the item.
According to the suit, 111
May 31, 1977, Ms. Sandelin
was "observing the machine

The plaintiff Ia now blind in
that eye and has suffered
11
permanent and severe
shock to her nervous

CLEVELAND ( UPI ) The Cleveland Browns - out

harrier in their plans to rise

wild, 37-34 sudden death
victory over the New York
Jets Sunday that knocked the
Jets out of the playoff picture,
Rutigliano took time out
Monday to philosophize a bit.
"We've been consistently
Inconsistent this season, " the
rookie
head
coach
acknowledged. " But I hope
we can take all the good and
positive things that happened
to us this year and build on
that for next year. "
After the Browns were
blown out of the Kingdome in
Seattle a week ago in a loss
that destroyed Cleveland 's
playoff hopes, Rutigliano said
he did some serious talking to
his players about the last two
games of the season.
"I told them, 'Don't take
the Rand McNally (map) out.
Don't start planning what
Howard Johnson 's you 're
going to stay at on your way
home. Let's finish &amp;-7. It's not
what you wanted, it's not
what I wanted and its not
what
the
Cleveland
community wanted, but Jet's
build on it for the future,"'
the coach disc!Qsed.
"I very·much wanted in my
first year here not to have a
losing
season,"
he
acknowledged. "But I didn't
get up and tell them to win it
for my grandmother. I just
told them what I thought their
respmsibilities are."
The heart-to-heart talk with
his players from the softspoken Rutigliano apparently
worked, to some extent. His
club took the field in frigid
Municipal Siadium Sunday
and dominated the Jets until
the fourt.h quarter.
Then
New
York
quarterback Matt Robinson
capitalized on a series of
Cleveland mistakes and
directed his club on a
spectaCI!lar, 24i&gt;oint fourthquarter rally that put them in
the lead late in the game.
But resurgent Cleveland
quarterback Brian Sipe, who
was impressive the entire
game, marched the Browns
down the field against the
c!Qck and tossed a touchdown
pass· to ·running back Calvin
Hill that sent the battle into
overtilne.
'
The Browns then won the
opening toss and moved .
effectively on the nifty
running of speedy Greg
Pruitt, setting up Don
Cockcroft 's winning field
goal.
"I think our football team

Rutigliano commented. "The
late.aeason success that Sipe
is enjoying will further his
personal growth. He has a
very good grasp of the game
and has a good enough arm oo
win in this league ."
Turning to the injury
report, the coach said reserve
defensive back Tom London ·
may have a knee injury and
starting linebacker Gerald
Irons has a toe problem. Both
could miss the club's season
finale against the Cincinnati
Bengals at
Riverfront ·
Stadium this Sunday.

Israeli giant buried today
By MATHIS CHAZ.ANOV
JERUSALEM (UP!) Golda Meir, one of the giants
who helped found lsr ael and
in anguish steered it through
its most trying war, was
buried today in a driving rain
in a grave overlooking a
placid pine forest.
The Russian-born,
Americaneduca ted former
prime minister, who guided
Isr~el through the Yom
Kippur war of 1973, was
buried without eulogies . as
she had requested in her will.
Dignitaries from Israel and
around the world huddled
under umbrellas against a
background of solemn
ancient
prayers
and
streaming rain at the state
funeral service .
Army chaplains removed a ·
blue and white Israeli flag
and a black shroud from the
plain pine box bearing the
body of Mrs. Meir and
lowered it into a grave oH a
flagstone path in the national
cemetery on Mount Herzl.
The gravesite overlooked a
green pine forest surrounding
Jersualem.
The rain forced more than
300 mourners into the shelter
of a forest of umbrellas atthe
gravesite in the " Greats of
the Nation" section of the
cemetery, named for the
founder of Zionism, Theodor
Herzl.
Mrs . Meir, who died Friday
at 110 of cance~, was buried

program presented by Mrs.
Emerson Jones at the Friday
meeting of the Return
Jonathan Meigs Chapter of
the Daughters of the

the Jones home.
Mrs. Jones compared the
lack of celebration In New
Enqland to the ones which
took place in the South where
natural greens and frwts
were featured in decorations.
She also talked about the
waissail bowl and the

She also coinl11ented on the
yule log in the slave country
where the log was soaked in
w~ter to make it burn longer
With the custom that the
slaves did not have to work as
long as the yule log burned.
Mrs. Jones noted that even today the yule log custom is
ca~ed out by some Southern
children.
The idea of Santa Claus was
brought by the Dutch, she
said, and then talked about
Dutch customs of observing
Christmas. Mrs. Jones also

the fin esse lost the best the
defense could do would be to
cash one diamond plus the
spade and the trump.

After' cresting 1\Jesday at

58.4 feet, !.he river at midmorning today had fallen to
57.4 feet and continued to fall
slowly.
· Officials at the National
Weather Service's Ohio River
Forecast Center said the
river is expected to continue

a slow drop to 52 feet,
Cincinnati' s flood stage, late.
Thursday night or early
Friday morning.
Then, beginning late r
Friday, the rate of droppage
is to increase, with the river
returning to norinalleveis at

!.he rate of a half-foot an hour.
Although today's falling

"At the moment, things are

In Pomeroy , which hugs

" But the river's gone down

Many residents who were
left stranded as the murky
