Superintendent Tony Deem said the Southern Local Board of. Education will meet for a special meeting, Monday, May 10 to vote on matters pertaining to placing the bond issue and required .5 mill maintenance levy for the proposed new high school.on the ballot for the special election. If the board passes the issuance of bonds and notice to proceed, it has until May 20 to file the paperwork with the Meigs County Board of Elections. Deem said with a less than 20 percent voter tumour last week, he and other district officials felt this wasn't a true reflection of the entire district. The issue went down in defeat 421 to 338 votes, a difference of 83 votes. Deem also said the district needed to do a better job meeting with voters in the district about the bond issue to answer questions and discuss the ecqnomic impact a new high school could have on Southern Local. He said the first thing prospective residents look at before relocating are health care and school facilities. "We need to talk to people to find out what their fear is and try to analyze that and basically do a better job of educating people about what an opportunity this is," Deem said. The opportunity, as Southern officials see it, is a shot at receiving $7.4 million of state money to build the new high school before it likely moves to the bottom of the Iist for funding from the Ohio School Facilities Please see Bond, A2 ,.raffic offenders beware Gallipolis City Schools installs high-tech camera syStem on buses B Y MICHELLE MILLER MDTNEWS@MYDAILYTRIBUNE COM GALLIPOLIS - A new camera system on Gallipolis City School District buses will make it easier to charge and convict motorists of failing stop for a school bus. Currently in the beginning stages, Transpo1tation Supervisor Troy Johnson said the school system hopes to equip all of the buses with the camera system with the help of grant funding. The buses that are equipped were upgraded from a one camera/video cassette recorder system to a four camera/digital video recorder system. The cameras are positioned three places inside the bus for full view of everyone including the bus driver and bus door. The fourth camera is positioned outside of the bus, facing traffic. That fourth camera can capture a vehicle's license plate, vehicle description and a clear picture of the driver. The cameras are equipped with infrared technology to piQk up activity at night and will also capture audio. In addition to making it easier to prosecute motorists who fail to stop, Johnson said the video footage will be a great training tool for future bus drivers. Unlike the current VHS system, which only automatically saves six hours of video at a time, the new system automatically saves camera system on school buses capture a full view of the interior of the bus, as well as oncoming traffic. Submitted photos video for six weeks. In addition, if there is an incident, bus drivers only need to push a button to mark the footage for later review by school administratiors. "The cameras are a good administrative tool for the principal to monitor student conduct," said Johnson. Being digital, searching for a video of a particular incident is much easier. " It takes a process that would have taken days down to minutes,'' said Johnson. Overall. Johnson said the cameras will be a good safety and training tool for the school system and make it easier for administration to handle incidents quickl; and effectively. 4 SECTIONS - 24 PAGES ~oundTown ~elebrations Classifieds Comics Editorials Sports B Section © 2010 Ohio Valley Publishing Co. • !IIlii!

Sunday, May 9, 2010 Ohio ex-attorney general pleads guilty to 2 counts COLU~1BUS (APl Former Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann. \\ho preached against corruption then succumbed to scandal. pleaded guilty Friday to two counts improperly paying t\\O aides from political and office accounts and failing to disclose campaign expenses. In a busy; Franklin County municipal courtroom largely obli\ ious to the symbolism, the state ·li former top law enforcement official entered two guilty pleas before Judge Ted Barro\\ s. Dann entered one of the plea., a~ an Alford plea. ackml\\ 1edging C\ ide nee existed to pro\ c his guilt but denying a crime \\as committed when he padded the lodging budgets of aides Anthony GutieiTCl and Leo Jennings. Expressing sorrow at the turn of events for such a high-ranking official, Barrows ~entenced Dann to S I .000 and 500 hours of community service. A plea ·deal also prohibits Dann from holding future public office. David Freel. executive director of the Ohio Ethics Commission that helped investigate Dann. said the 17-month probe ended with the proper message being sent to the public. "Any time you have a former statewide officeholder - let alone a former attorney general of the State of Ohio - enter guilt) pleas in front of a court of lav. to ethics and related \ iolations. you have accountability to the public for his actions." Freel said. The first charge involved campaign funds Dann allegedly gave to Gutierrez and Jennings to pay rent and utilities for a house they shared near do\\ ntov. n Columbus and a condominium they later mo\ed into in the city's northwest suburb~. The charge also ill\olvcd a $5,000 gift or loan Dann made from his elected office's transition account to one of those aides. The second charge alleged that Dann know ingly filed a false finan cial disclosure form. Dann. who had long insisted he bro~c no laws. accepted responsibility for his actions Friday. The Democrat from Youngstown \aid he had the duty to e.xercise stronger oversight than he did of his campaign and transition accounts. He said he entered the Alford plea because he does not believe the intent was there to ~om­ mit a crime. "To be honest with you, I wanted to put this very sad episode in my family's history behind us so that \\ e can alI move on," he said. "So that I can try to move on with my legal career. that my children can move on without further embarrassment, and we can put an end to this matter n ju-;t for me but for people of the state." Dann. the first former attorney general to be con · victed of a crime in modern history. was elected in 2006 on a pledge to voters that he would clean up after a Republican investment scandal that reached from the Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation to the governor's office. Barely into his first term. a sexual harassment scandaJ imolving top aides broke out. which led to Dann 's resignation and the later com ictions of three former aides and his estranged wife, a journalism professor.

The millage on the bond issue will stay the same as it appeared in the primary election with the local share calculated at 2.7 mills to generate around $3.9 million.

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution ECONOMY TOI)AY IN HISTORY Today is Sunday, May 9, the 129th day of 2010. There are 236 days left in the year. This is Mother's Day. Today's Highlight in History: On May 9, 1980, 35 people were killed when a freighter, the Summit Venture, rammed the Sun~hine S~yway Bridge over Tampa Bay in , Flonda, caus1ng a 1,400-foot section of the southbound span to collapse. On this date: In 1754, a cartoon in Benjamrn Franklin's Pennsylvania Gazette showed a snake cJt in pieces, with each part representing an American colony; the caption read, "JOIN, or DIE." In 1860, writer J.M. Bame, the creator of Peter Pan, was born In Kirriemuir, Scotland. In 1883, Spanish philosopher Jose Ortega y Gasset was born in Madrid. In 1936, Italy annexed Ethiopia. In 19~5, U.S. officials announced that a midnight entertarnment curfew was being lifted immediately. In 1961, FCC chairman Newton N. Minow decried the majority of television programminc as a "vast wasteland" in a speech to the National Association of Broadcasters. In 1974, the House Judiciary Committee opened public hearings on whether to recommend the impeachment of President Ric~ard M. Nixon. In 1978, the bullet-riddled body of former Italian prime minister Aldo Moro, who'd been abducted by the Red Brigades, was found in an automobile in the center of Rome. In 1987, 183 people were killed when a New York-bound Polish jetliner crashed while attempting an emergency return to Warsaw. In 1994, South Africa's newly elected parliament chose Nelson Mandela to be the country's first black president. · Ten years ago: Sen. John McCain endorsed Texas Gov. George W. Bush for presrdent. Former four-term Louisiana Gov. Edwin Edwards was convicted of extortron schemes to manipulate the licensing of riverboat casinos. Five years ago: President George W. Bush, Russian President Vladimir Putin, French President Jacques Chirac and German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder commemorated the 60th anniversary of the Allied victory over Nazi Germany with a lavish military parade in Moscow. President Bush then traveled to Georgia, the first American chief executive to visit. The news and opinion website The Huffington Post was launched . Thought for Today: "God knows that a mother needs fortitude and courage and tolerance and flexibility and patience and firmness and nearly every other brave aspect of the human soul. But because I happen to be a PC!rent of almost fiercely maternal nature, I pra1se casualness. It seems to me the rarest of virtues." - Phyllis McGinle~ American poet and author (1905-1978).

Nobody even said thanks. so that kind of hurt right off the bat," Osborne said. "The leadin was basically it's not what you've done, but we're just going to go in another direction. That . s a bittersweet ment for me. "As I left the office, I felt that maybe that could have been handled a little bit different. I realize that this may have been awkward for all of us, but I have been around these men ver) closely for a long period of time." That was only the beginning of a very bad time for Osborne. who spent the next month watching GAHS actually go through the process of hiring his replacement which occurred on April 21 when the board of education approved Tom Moore to be the next Blue Devils boys basketball coach. "It"s like being at a funeral. You're told you won't be back. your job is posted, you see the list of applicants who are up for your job, and then finally y hire someone. It's e being in that line and • seeing somebody else come up and tell you another sad story that tears at your heart," Osborne said. "That period of time was very surreal for me, because I never thought I wouldn't be here. I always thought that I would have the opportunity to go out when I wanted to. "With my health being what it is and the refreshingness of coming to a new school. those things were very positive for me. I never felt at the end of this past basketball season that something like this would happen.'' The Blue Devils just finished their first season at the new GAHS in a gymnasium that holds 1,800 people, more than ·ce as many as the old ility in which Osborne ent the first 40 years of career. Gallia Academy finished that inaugural campaign with a 7-14 overall record. the third straight losing season suffered by the Blue and White. The Blue Devils did set a few school records this past winter, allowing the fewest average points ever by a GAHS basketball team. It was also the lowest scoring average for any team that ever Osborne had coached at .GAHS, including all of the ones before the introduction of the three-point line in the 1987-88 season. Luckily, Osborne hasn't had too much free time to dwell on these recent developments. He's been to busy doing something else that is ry dear to him. • The venerable mentor is close to wrapping up his 24th and final season as boys tennis coach. Since Osborne - who has amassed over 200 coaching wins in tennis - is not being renewed as a coach. this spring will be his final season leading a Blue Devil program. "Tennis has been something that has been very good for me through all of this. I've had to stay focused on coaching those kids up every day and they have really responded this year," Osborne said. "They ended up finishing in second place in the SEOAL, and nobody would have thought that at the beginning of the spring. Those have been very positive things for me through this ocess." Osborne also won over 00 games in 11 seasons ' as a varsity baseball coach and was an assistant coach on the 1970 boys track team that won the SEOAL title. Success has followed Osborne wherever he has been. As a prepster, the southpaw was best known for his days as a two-sporl standout in ~ l $>unbav Z!:unrs -$>rntmel • Page 83 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis 2010 basketball and baseball at Geneva High School located in Ashtabula County. Before graduating in 1963. Osborne led the Eagles ~o a combined 3111 hoops :·ecord over his last two season~ mcluding a Class AA dJstrict final appearance his senior year. Osborne was also named the Star Beacon Ashtabula County player of the year for his efforts in the 1962-63 season. Osborne was also a star pitcher on the I 963 Ashtabula Rubber Company's American Legion Baseball state championship team. Osborne signed with Wittenberg to play both basketball and baseball. He was almost cut by the men's basketball team before his junior season - which was coached by soon-to-be Ohio State frontmap Eldon Miller but was named the team MVP that same winter. He went on to finish his senior year as a starter. Osborne also finished his WU baseball career with a 14-2 record in three varsity seasons and was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates. Osborne also had an offer to play baseball for legendary Ohio University coach Bob Wren, but he was already committed to Wittenberg. After his two-year stint at Northwestern High School after college, Osborne accepted the GAHS job upon entering the community for the first time in his life back in the summer of 1968. That first season, as he says, really helped set the tone for everything that has followed. "'When I started coaching, I had no idea what I was doing. I found out quickly that you simply cannot do it alone, you have to have great people around you." Osborne said. "My first team was very giving, and they took a lot of what I said and applied it. We did a lot of growing up together that year, because they had never had anyone direct them toward a common goal. "That first group still epitomizes the idea that we can all do this. They were good people who sacrificed and listened, because they never had to do that before," he added. "We were a football town, so practicing at or Thanksgiving Christmas was unheard of at that time. They really helped set the ground work for what we built here over the years.'' And as his basketball teams continued to improve, so did the numbers of people in· the the bleachers. And process, ultimately, never stopped. "After we had laid the foundation, then we just had class after class after class in the 1970s that produced some really good basketball players. That period just gave us some credence about how you could be good as a group, and the community started to figure 01,1t that this could be okay," Osborne said. "We were playing for something besides getting between football and baseball. Those groups in the mid70s really helped us with credibility in the community. "After that, we just seemed to get a player or two every couple of years that could really play, and we were able to keep the wave going and accomplish some great things together. It really doesn't seem possible that it's been 4 I years, because it's been one incredible ride full of great people." People. That's the one accomplishment that Osborne is most proud of during his incredible run at Gallia Academy. He has always iJlstilled in his players on the core values of responsibility, discipline and accountability - all of which transcend the game and stay with the young men well past their high school years. "I would like to think ' Bryan Walters/file photo Jim Osborne, left, applauds his team from the sidelines during th~ Blue Devils' final home game at the old Gallia Academy High School on Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2009. GAHS defeated SEOAL-rival Jackson on that night by a 48-36 margin, helping Osborne and the Blue Devils send the old gymnasium out in grand style after 51 years of service. Osborne spent all but one of his 41 years as GAHS basketball coach in that building. that I have had a part in what has developed here over the last 41 years and I would also hope people would remember me as a person who had principles," Osborne said. "I've never professed that I was better than anyone or any of my teams. And at the end of the day. 1 hope I have made them better human beings who have some idea about how to be successful in life. If we happened to win some games along the way. it just provided strength to what I was saying . If we lost some games, that's part of life too. ''I'm just a simple old man who's not that special, but basketball has been a vehicle to help me meet so many other great people. It's been a vehicle for me to help teach that life is a team thing." Osborne's accomplishments have not gone unnoticed by the areas he has blessed along the way. He is a member of the halls of fame at Geneva College, Wittenberg University and Gallia Academy as well as being named to the Asht~bula Cou~ty Basketball Foundation Hall of Fame for his efforts as a player late last March. Osborne has also had his fair share of opportunities to coach elsewhere come up, but he always ended up staying in the Old French City. He interviewed for the Marietta job after his first year at GAHS. but was turned down. He applied at both Chillicothe and Canton McKinley. but neither called his name. Twice. however. Osborne appeared to be moving on. In 1972. Hayes High School made a strong play to get Osborne to come to Delaware County to be its new head basketball coach. Osborne's son. Tige, was born two weeks before he was offered the position - which would have given Osborne less than six weeks to move the family north of Columbus. Osborne ultimately declined the offer and remained at GAHS. Then one year later. Osborne was offered an assistant coaching position at his alma mater (Wittenberg). but he enjoyed being a head coach more than returning to the college ranks. Oc;borne went on to lead the Blue Devils that season to the program's first district championship in school history. Osborne won his other district championship banner in 2003.

Sunday, May 9, Cavs clobber Celtics in Game 3 BOSTO~ (AP) LeBron James scored 21 of his 38 points in the tirst quarter to help the Cleveland Cavaliers beat Boston 124-95 on Friday night. handing the Celtics their worst home playoff loss ever and taking a 2-1 lead 111 the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinals. Showing no ill-effects of an elbow problem that was the talk of Cleveland during the long layoff, James finished with eight rebounds and seven assi:-.ts. The 21 points in a quarter was a franchise postseason record. Antawn Jamison had 20 points and 12 rebounds for Cleveland. '"hile Shaquille O'"ieal added 12 points and nine rebounds. Rajon Rondo. who had 19 assists in Boston's Game 2 'ictory on Monday. had 18 poiots and eight assists. The Ccltics missed 10 of their first 13 shots, hitting just 27 percent in the first quarter to spot Cleveland a 21-point lead. They were never able to recover a~ the Cavaliers shot 59 percent from the field for the game. Game 4 is Sunday and the Celtics need a victor) to split their home games and assure themselves of another. James wore a black sleeve on his right elbow. \\ hich became a concern after he shot a fr-ee throw left-handed in the closing mtnutes of Cle\eland's first-round pia) ofT game against Chicago. He was 8 of 10 from the field in the first quatter - mo:-.t of them mid- to longrange jumpers - and after that it didn't matter. "I know I'm going to hear a lot about the elbow. but I'm here to play basketball and give our team a chance to win,'' James said. The Celtics had high hopes after taking Game 2 in Cleveland to swipe the home-court ad\ anta!!e from the 61-,,1n Cavaliers. But Cleveland earned it back in Game 3. needing just one quarter to silence the Boston crowd that got no solace when the Red Sox and Brums also fell behind carl). "'We knew how · tant it was to come and play aggressive after giving away Game 2." James said. James scored eight straight points to make it a I 0-point lead midway through the first. and sc\ en points during an 110 run that made it 36-15 '' ith 19 seconds left in the quarter. Cleveland led by 24 points in the second quarter. 30 in the third. and ne\'er by le~s than 20 in the entire second half. Celtics coach Doc Rivers pulled most of his stattcrs with 6:37 left, and much of the TD Garden crowd left as well. James sat down with 5:41 remaining, giving him a chance to rest his strained and bruised right elbow.

The free, all-expenses-paid field trip to the Holter Farm was made possible thanks to classmate Kaitlyn Taylor of Racine who won a statewide essay contest sponsored by the Ohio Livestock Coalition. Taylor was selected from 37 essays submitted in the contest's inaugural year. Taylor. along with 56 third graders, toured the Holter Dairy Farm Friday, discovering just where their milk comes from, even making their own butter along the way and milking a cow. Students learned about the high-tech milking parlor and feeding stations which run with the help of computers. They also discovered a 22-foot deep lagoon which holds one miUion gallons of manure which promoted some to ask "why . docs cow poop smell?" Though that question wasn't answered. many others were and all left more educated about life on a working dairy farm. The essay contest is part of the Ohio Livestock Coalition's ongoing For Your lnFARMation program. The program includes free educational materials for teachers designed to teach Ohio third graders about the origins of the food they eat every day and about the important role agriculture plays in Ohio's economy. "We created the For Your InFARMation program to help young people better understand where their food comes from and the critical role Ohio livestock farmers play in feeding Ohio. the nation and the world," says David White, executive director. Ohio Livestock Coalition. The For Your InFARMation materials support key Ohio academic content standards for social studies, language arts: science and math, and can be downloaded free of charge at www.ForYoudnFARMation.com. Through these materials students learn about farmers and the economy, livestock farming, keys to safe and healthy food, careers in agriculture and more. Southern third graders gather in the, barn to learn about Holstein cows, how to milk them and just what it's like to live a dog's life on a dairy farm. Beth Sergent/photos Above : Alyssa Holter (far right) talks to students about how the milk is extracted from the cows in the farm's milking parlor. Left: Here, students watch as the cows line up three deep for computers to release food into the stalls based on the information the collars relay. Below: Ed Holter holds a computerized, numbered collar which all dairy cows on the Holter farm wear for monitoring, including monitoring just how much food to release for each individual ' ' cow to eat. All third graders had an opportunity to milk a cow while on the Holter Dairy Farm and make, as well as eat, ' their own homemade butter. .----------------.

Open Gate Garden Club learns about bluebirds Bluebirds and bluebird boxes was the February program for the Open Gate Garden Club. The meeting was held at the home of Kathie Hildenbrand. Brenda Covert gave devotion reading "Happy Year is Not Enough." · Brenda Covert gave the program on bluebirds. There are three species of North American birds. Eastern and Western bluebirds have a reddish brown breast, which contrasts with their, predominantly blue plumage. Their relative the (male) mountain bluebird is entirely blue. Eastern bluebirds are primarily found east of the Rockies and range from Canada to Mexico. Western bluebirds are found west of the Rocky Mountains from Canada to Mexico. Bluebirds eat small fruits and hunt insects, spiders and other creatures from above. The birds perch, watch and then swoop to the ground to pounce on their prey. Pairs mate in spring and summer, when they construct small. bowlshaped nests. Females lay four or five eggs and incubate them for about two weeks. Young remain in the nest cared for by both parents for an additional 15-20 days. Bluebirds often have two broods in a season Someti·mcs a young bluebird from the first brood v-iii st~y in the nest and assist its parents in caring for the second. Bluebirds also build their nests in a bluebird box. You can build a bluebird box. After it is built, place the box 4-6 feet above the groun. It should have the hole faces open land and points away from the roadwa). Don't paint the interior or extenor of the bluebird box as paint chips can be harmful to the birds. Use weather-resistant wood such as redwood cedar or cypress. Instructions and handouts for buildi ng were provided at the meeting. A bluebird box was given to each member. A green tip: make compost from kitchen scraps. Compost like a champ by throwing in your vegetable wa..,te instead of allowing it to be trucked off to the landfill. Known as gardener's gold, compost enriches soil fertility by giving it a shot of high-powered, plant-loving nutrients. Aside from stimulating healthy root development, the addition of rich and earthy compoM improves soil texture, aeration and water retention .

Because of her experiences, she has talked to people she never would have talked to and done things that she never would have done.

Playing outdoors just 30 minutes a day increases child's ability to focus and pay attention. · • Play boosts self-confidence and self-regulation. Kids learn to become masters of their own destiny without an adult directing. pushing, managing or scheduling • Play helps, kids learn to enjoy just being in their own company, entertaining themselves and developing identity. Ease that guilt when your kid says, 'Tm bored. Mom!" and wants to be amused by you. Borba urges parents to ask these questions: • How much are your kids plugged into some kind of a digital device? (Did you know the average child is plugged in for 7 1/2 hours a day?) • How often are they glued to that TV or clicking that keypad? • How much free time do they have (unscheduled, unsupervised)? • How often do they go outdoors to just decompress? • Do your kids know how to entettain themselves and enjoy the great outdoors? • How do you respond when they get messy?

Wacky world of Amelia Bedelia coming to Bossard Library aders love Amelia lia. the wacky, liter• al-minded housekeeper! When she makes a sponge cake, she puts in real sponges. When she weeds the garden, she replants the weeds. When she pitches a tent, she literally throws it into the woods! Since 1963. children have enjoyed reading the antics of Amelia Bedelia. Over 21 million Amelia Bedelia books have sold since then. As noted in the New York Times Book Review. "No child can restst Amelta and her literal trips through the minefield of the English language - and no adult can fail to notice that she's usually right when she's wrong." Amelia Bedelia author Peggy Parish didn · t set out to be an author. In £. writing was the last t on her mind. But as a teacher in New York City, she found herself creating stories for her students. Eventuall}. she even got a few pub I ished. But it wasn't unti I 1963 that Amelia Bedclia was born. anJ · for Ms Pansh the rest is history.

Based on hundreds of interviews, Game Change gives a backstage look at the trials and antics of the candidates and those close to them. It is amazing how complex and calculated the run for the Presidency has become! How many pollsters and advisors- are hired to study the effects of every statement and position. And there is the enormous amount of money which must be raised and how to spend it for maximum advantage. The most interesting parts of the book involve the. women. Mrs. Edwards (I thought of her as some kind of saint) comes off as a shrew. calling her John a "hick" and humilittting him, and this is before she found out about Rielle Hunter! Cindy McCain leads a very separate life from her husband. She lives in Arizona; he lives in DC. She apparently has a boyfriend, and the campaign was terrified that bit of information would go public. Ditto for the lady friend of John's from DC. Of course, Bill Clinton still hasn't learned to behave himself, and there is no way Hillary can control what he says or does. Their relationship remains a mystery, but they both know how to play the game. The book ends with Obama's persuading Hillary to take the Secretary of State post. There is mutual respect there, which sometimes happens with worthy rivals. Sarah Palin was not John McCain's choice. He wanted his old friend, Joe Lieberman, to run with him. Karl Rove and other gurus vetoed that idea, and Sarah was discovered when they Googled female Republican offi~e holders. Sarah brought her own set of problems. At times she seemed totally distracted Beverly Gettles and struggled to learn all she needed to know for her debate with Joe Biden. She couldn't get his name straight, kept calling him "O'Biden" until one advisor suggested she just call him "Joe." So that is why, when they met on stage, she asked, "Can I just call you Joe?" · Michelle Obama was not enthusiastic about her husband's running at first. She wondered what that would do to their family, particularly the amount of time he would be away from their daughters. There were lots of frustrations on the campaign trail. All the candidates suffered from stress and exhaustion. McCain at times seemed disengaged and discouraged. Obama was usually cool and calm, but he can be windy and a bit preachy. Rev. Wright's sermons hurt Obama, and the statement about people being bitter and "clinging to their guns and religion" was not helpful. The media blows up every small utterance and analyzes it to death, and we, the people, hear about it for days until the next gaffe takes its place. This is a fascinating book which reads like a novel. Reminds me of those The Making of the President books on past elections. If you want to get the lowdown, and I do mean lowdown, on these folks, read Game Change. Makes you wonder why anyone wants to run for President. It is stressful, exhausting, sometimes humiliating. but standing there taking that oath of office makes it all worthwhile. If you want to run for President, you'd better start when you are five, so you don't give the press any ammunituon to use against you down the road. Marilyn Monroe .writings to be released this fall B Y HILLEL ITALIE • AP NATIONAL WRITER NEW YORK Musings about life, literature and other rarely seen writings by Marilyn Monroe will be published this fall. Farrar, Straus & Giroux announced Tuesday that ''Fragments'' would come out i11 October. Editor Courtney Hodell said the book would include poems, photographs, reflections on third husband Arthur Miller and other men in Monroe's life, and references to works by Samuel Beckett, James Joyce and numerous other authors. "I think the book will show that she was a really thoughtful person with a real interior life," Hodell said. "She was a great reader and someone with real writing flair. There are fragments of poetry that are really quite beautiful, lines that stop you in your tracks." The book features a long essay about Monroe's first husband, James Dougherty; notes about acting and the roles she was working on; lists of resolutions and a letter to acting coach Lee Strasberg. Monroe wrote on everything from spiral bound notebooks to stationery from the Waldorf Astoria. The writings date from 1943, when Monroe was a teenager. to near the end of her life. Monroe was found dead in her Los Angeles home in 1962 at age 36. her death ruled a probable suicide, although theories of murder have proliferated. Hodell said there were passages by Monroe that "make her seem suicidal," but declined to say what years the passages were written. Hodell also declined to say whether Monroe referred to Joe DiMaggio. her second of three husbands, or President John F. Kennedy, with whom she was widely rumored to have had an affair. But Hodell did say that ''there's stuff about all of her relationships here." The book was commissioned by Anna Strasberg, who manages Monroe's estate and is Lee Strasberg's widow. �---------:----:--_..-.-- -- -- --~ .
