He is one of 10 drivers to have won during the first half of the Sprint Cup season ~nd .is in fifth place in the point standings. But, by the measure of Johnson's success in 2006-07, he's having an off year. Johnson became NASCAR's first back-to-hack Cup champion since his Hendrick Motorsports teammate, Jeff Gordon, in 1997·98. "I think hard work keeps you in the game, said Johnson, "but there cer· tainly are races where good luck sets you apart. "Certainly luck is a part of it. ... (It) sets you apart on those few times a year where it comes into play and you need it." Johnson, 32, won at Phoenix in the season's eigbth race. He has four top· 10 finishes in the past six races, though he could managed only 23rd in the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona. The full implementation of generic cars has contributed to Johnson's · struggles this year. "There's a lot we need to learn with this car," he said. "I think the No . 48 · team itself is an example of how things can change. We were success· fullast year. We came into this ·year on the big tracks and we've struggled. We've made progress with this car on the big tracks ... but I think everyone has. And as we come back a second time, I'm hopeful that the !.S-mile stuff improves." The El Cajon, Calif., native first made a mark racing off-road vehicles across desert courses. His back· ground is similar to that of NASCAR drivers Robby Gordon and Casey Mears, though Johnson moved direct· ly from off-road to stock-car racing while the other two raced Indy cars before migrating to stock cars. . Like many others, Johnson is con· cerned about the effect of a declining national economy on the health of auto racing. "I hope the economy hits bottom and turns around and comes back, and we're able to get the attendance and souvenir sales and all. the things that make our sport thrive, said Johnson. "When I think about that, I also think about the sponsors who are involved and how the economy needs to turn around to help them out. "When you're in a bad economy, it's just tough on all the sponsors, and our sport is driven by sponsors. So we're fighting some elements as a sport that are out of our control."

Isinbayeva sets pole vault world record ROME (AP)- Just when it seemed someone might challenge Yclena' lsinbaveva, the Russian responded with her first pole vault world record in nearly three years. lsinbayeva cleared 16 feet, 6 inches (5 .03 meters) Friday at the Golden Gala meet, improving on her previous mark of 16-5 1/4 (5 .01) set at the 2005 world championships in Helsinki , Finland. American pole vaulter Jenn Stuczynski set an American record of 16 feet, I 3/4 (4:92 ) at the U.S.Oiympic trials this week to improve her second-place standing on the all-time list, pressuring lsinbayeva t.o · respond before the Beijing Olympics. "Everybody was saying ' Ah OK, lsinbayeva is fm i'shed. we have a new star,"' she said. "So today I was really angry." lsinbayeva repeatedly had tried to clear 16-5 1/2 (5.02) over the past few seasons and decided with her new coach Vi tal y Petrov that a switch to 16-6 might give her a psychological boost. lsinbayeva cleared the record height with ease on her second attempt, suggesting she is cap,able of much more. lsinbayeva has worked hard to overcome the physical and psychological problems that stopped her from improving on the record since 2005. 'Fhis was her fi rst outdoor meet this year, and her first appearance altogether sjnce winning her fourth world indoor title in Valencia , Spain, in March. The 26-year-old Russian has dominated the pole vault since winning the 2004 Olympic title. She has set 12 world records outdoors and I 0 indoors, and is the only woman to clear 5 meters. gives you more! 90 Days until your first payment!

Middleport "doorway to freedom" tO runaway slaves BY BRIAN I J. REED BAEEOCIMYDAILYSENTINELCOM MIDDLEPORT -Meigs County is rich in Civil War history, laying claim to the only ()hio Civil War battlefield at ·Buffington Island and an important role in Morgan's Raid: · But the Village of Middleport played a partic4lar part in the events leading UJ? to tl)e war. Residents here 111 the early and midt800's assisted runaway slaves in ·reaching freedom north. Middleport was. a stop on a major route of the Underground Railroad. The Underground Railroad was an informal network of secret routes and safe houses owned by abolitionists. Historians believe as . many as 30,000 slaves reached freedom -mainly !O Canada -using ihe routes. Mayor Michael Gerlach, himself an American historian, said Middleport served as a "doorway to freedom" for many slaves escaping from what was then ·Virginia, just across the :Ohio River in Mason County. Mason County was home to the Wagner plal)ta- . - --lion,--which- was-, in tum, .home t~ around I()() slaves )It any gtven ttme. : ''That was a huge number ·of slaves," Gerlach said. '"~ost people in the south owned no slaves, and most ·~lave · hoJders owned only .two or three." • : "The average cost of a ~lave was around six hundred dollars, at a time when 'the average annual income was three hundred." · Many of the slaves who :used Middleport and points iwrth as their route to free)iom in Canada came from :t.hat plantation, and the Wagners became very proactive in protecting their investments. According to Gerlach, Hamilton Kerr, who had. been a frontiersman . and (ndian fighter, owned a home .at the mouth of J,.eading Creek at Middleport, and that home became the first stop on the slaves' path to freedom. · Kerr himself was too old in the early 19th-century to actively lead slaves along the route, but he hired a man, Adam Smith, who led them on, usually to the home of . Horace Holt, a Ruiland ·indu striali~t From there, it was on to Albany and points . north to the Great Lakes and on to freedom in Canada. Smith was once arrested and taken to a jail in Point Pleasant, Va., where a band of Rutland men-freed him. JohnS. Giles, Jr., in. 1875, described the "kidnapping of Adam Smith:" "This gross violation of the most sacred rights of the citizens of Ohio excited universal indignation, and open violence was threatened to release Smith from his illegal confinement," Giles • wrote. "Many good citizens of Ohio, who had no disposition to interfere with their Virginia neighbors in holding slaves, had. no doubt often unconsciously aided slaves, many times in giving them food or answering questions as to the points of compass when the traveling black man appeared at their door, so it was argued that if one man, like Smith, could be picked up without form · of law an<! carried beyond the jurisdiction of the state and there imprisoned with, out-the- righr of- bml- for a supposed criminal offense, what security was there for others equally ex posed?" The Grant Mill, located at the end of Mill Street on Middleport's "T," served as a I90kout for slaves traveling across the Ohio River from Virginia. A watchman stood sentry in the cupola of the old mill, and sounded a . horn, advising those waiting . at Leading Creek that the fugitives were en route. "There was definitely a struggle then, between , the people of Middleport and the people of Mason," Gerlach said. It would be unfair, Gerlach said, to classify all Virginians as pro-slavery and all Ohioans as abolitionists . · Jl!'ot everyone in Middleport and Meigs County was ·sympathetic to the plight 6f the slaYe. "People in Meigs County advertised in local newspapers that they had dogs available to assist in finding runaway slaves," Gerlach Brian J. RHd/photoa said, "so it's not as if all of Although he did npt gain freedom at Middleport, freed slave Samuel Allen gained prominence in the black community, Meigs · County w a~ aholi- and eventually opened the Allen Hotel in this building in downtown Middleport.

They have four grandchildren, ·Influential clergy chang~s city · BY JAMES SANDS Few clergy men in Gallipolis history had the influence over the town as :did Rev. George Sagen, who :rrom 1928 to 1942 was the :pastor of First Baptist • Church in Gallipolis . ; Sagen came to the Old : French City fre sh m1t of the ·Nonhern Baptist Seminary : jn Chicago. He was born in ·Buffalo , New York and after _graduating from high schoel · there he went to the Moody : Bible Institute in Chicago. :He then enrolled at . :Wheaton College where he · received an A.B. degree. Then he spent some time at the University of Chicago before finally enrolling at Northern Bapti st Seminary. In an interview with the : Gallipolis Daily Tribune m · 1928, Rev. Sagen professed that he had been interested in ministry since age 15 and while pursuing his education he had served as adele· gate to a number of :Christian youth conven: tions. · While in Chicago. Sagen · had worked with the Chicago Boys Club and : with the House of : Happiness (an Episcop<\1 · - . ooy's cliili) . At the same :time Sagen was active in : Boy Scouts and admitted to : having organized several · troops over the years. While : at Wheaton College Sagen : had played on the football • team and was known : around campu s as the :"fighting preacher.:' · That name beciunc a real: ity later in his life when in ' 194 1 Sagen was called to : active duty as a chaplain in .: the Army Reserve Corps. : Sagen had been in the Army : Reserve since his college ·' days, rising tcr the rank. of lieutenant. . Sagen left Gallipolis in March of 1941 for chaplain's training at Ft. Bragg, but did not offiCially resign as pastor in Gallipolis until Feb. 4, 1942. . Stated the Tribune on that occasion, "The thought of Rev. Mr. Sagen withdrawing from the church he has served so loyally and capably and effectively for 13 years is disturbing not only to Baptists but to citizens generally. For his activities extended far beyond his own church group, especial· ly during every tlood disas· ter and other emergency through which the community passed during the period of his pastorate." In the 1940 Sesquicentennial edition of the Tribune the writer of the history of First Baptist Church noted that First Baptist Church made its greatest growth in its histo· ry during Sagen's ' years there. It was in the late 1930's that the church added a two story 30 room education edition onto the structure. It is interesting to read in the various . I 928 papers _Jilou_gh how. wei! Sagen was welcomed m hts first few weeks in . town and this writer wonders if that warm hospitable welcome was not in some meljsure responsible lor the great work that was to ~ome later. Stated the Gallipolis Daily Tribune of Oct. II , 1928. "Ten days of Baptist church .activities are being planned in honor of the new pastor Rev. George Sagen and his family. Sunday will be rally day at Sunday school and church and beginning Sunday evening a series of Homecoming . i Week meetings will be held at 7 o'clock. A number of out of town pastors have been invited to these meet· ings and will have a part in them." Included in the number was Rev. J.O. Newton, who w~s not only the pastor of First Baptist in 1910's but was also the head football coach at Gallia Academy. That big rally mentioned above pulled out 512 souls and included on the program was a pageant illustrating the history and present work of the church. After each vignette the choir sang an appropriate song. Sagen's first sermon was on "Fa mily Religion." It . w~s noted by Mrs. Sagen. herself a biology teacher for some time. that her reitl edu· cation did not begin until she had children of her own. The homecoming activi ties ofl 928 were completely unique in the history of the town as each evening a different group in the church plannetl the service · and also participated in the · service. Prior to 1928 the pastor and perhaps one or two deacons were the only ones to address the congre'gation during worship. Sagen appears to have been a modest man as when asked about his time in Gallipolis said, '.'1 am always . disappointed when Christians do not yield themselves unrese rvedly to God. I am equally disap- . pointed when sinners refuse to accept .Christ as their Saviour. We haven' t experienced he ingathering that we had hopetl for. Yet, we have hat! a glorious time . Many Christians have found the more 'abundant life and souls have been saved." Tim ( Kri sti ) Durst, Jimmy (Julie) Dursi, Tad (Melissa) Reed. and Elizabeth Reed. They al so have six great-grandchildren, Jarrett. Trenton. and Hannah Durst, Cp)): and Josie Durst, and Alexa Russell. . Reed retired from Ohio Valley Electric Company. Kyger Creek plant, and his wi~e has been a homemaker. They have been active in the Bradford Church of Christ for most of their 65 years together.

It can send a lap root 8 to I0 feel 1nto Ihe soiI. '-licking up water and nutrients th:.tt are out of reach of other ann ual crops. The plants are blooming across California's Central Valley, pushing out bright, yellow and orange !lowers packed with dozehs of seeds that will be turned illlo salad and cooking oil. Two events have conspired 10 bring less watoc to fanners this year ~ a light winter snowpack i11 I he Sierra Nevada and court rulin ~s that have ordered more watt!r inlo the Sacnimento·San Joaquin Delta 10 help declining fi sh populalions. Many farmers- turning away from alfal fa. sugar beets and other crops that require a lot of water are planting saftlower instead. "It's a good choice in a dry year." said Steve Kaffka, an agronomist wi th lhe Uni versity of California at Davis. "Here, we have I he ideal climate for it:" Acreage planted in satllower has douhl ed in Californi a to aboul 100,000 acres I his .year. said Benny Nearn, ge neral manager of Woodland-based•. SeedTec. . SeedTec, a division of Califomia Oils Corp .. is the main producer of saftlower seeds and much of tbe processed oil. The company planted 25,000 ac res this year, up from 10,000 last year. Safflower is grown· almost exclusively in ·the Central .Valley because coastal areas are too moist, making the plants' roots susceptible 10 rol. ' ·"What safllower is able to do very well b go into the soil and get the water that's there." said SeedTec research director Arthur Weisker. About a third of the crop is grown in the Sacramento Valley. with lhe reS! cullivated in the more arid San Joaquin Valley. Nearn said. Safflower's salt lolerance makes it ewn more attracti ve in some San Joaquin soib 1ha1 are diftiCLril for other crops, Newly planted saftlower ger\erally needs a single .early wateri~g fro m spring rains or irri gation. Then ·i'ts tap roots dig deep to reach water and fertilizer left over from the previous year's planting season. California produced 55 percent or the nation's saftlower last year. The California crop was valued at nearl y $23 million, more than four times as much as much as Montana, the next largesl producer. according to the U.S. Department of Agricuilure. Safflower also is grown ·in Arizona. Colorado, Idaho, Utah, and North and So.uth Dakola., although much of that crop is used as bird seed. The safflower grow n in Cal iforn ia produces a vegetable oil that serves as ,an altemalive 10 corn. suntlower, olive, canola or soybean oil. ·<~. AP Jlholo "It's a great crop generally, because it's a very high Arthur Weisker, research director for SeedTec. inspects a safflower · quality oil. similar in almost every respect to oli ve plant in a field near Woodland , Calif., Tuesday, June 24 .

" This year it time to fight back. . . While quick fixes are available at stores ~ 1)0, not guns - by way of ~prays and granular materials to repel deer, help may already be at home. The possibilities are endless, from bar soaps to hair to spicy solutions. Now's the time to act. Once deer start foraging into a particular area, .it's a challenge to keep them out Think scents. Think fragrances. The key is knowing what deer's sensitive noses d9n't like. They certainly don't like humans. And human hair, espe. dally those from freshly permed salon customers, works great, as long as gardeners aren't shy about asking stylists to sweep up several handfuls to place alongside thetr plants or hang above the ground in nylon stockings: Sandy Wilfong uses dog hair t0 keep both deer and raccoons from ravagln~ her sweet corn crop. The employee at Zabm Greenhouses m Huntington, Ind., gets her hair from a . dog groomer. , "It absolutely will get the 'coon out of there. We haven't : bad the problem with the deer, either.~· she said. . . The creek behind Bob Matthews' home in Greece, N.Y., is , a popular deer hangout. During the growing season, there's an all-out blitz to keep them from harming his sunflower and vegetable crop. Matthews, who operates a Web site dedicated to horne gardeners, swears by a garlic-and-water spray applie<! every . few w~ks. especially after a rainy peripct. But sprays can · contain virtually anything that oeer don't like. . Other possible home remedies: • . • Baby powder. If it's good enough for baby, it's good enough for llaby plants. The scent might stave off deer. A dusting of flour might also send deer's taste buds into a . stampede for gardens elsewhere. . • Eggs. Crack a few, mix with 2.quarts of water and apply the sol4tion to plantS. The eggs will iiecompose and ~eer won't like the smell. · · . • Deodorant soap and dryer sheets. Soap shavings could be scattered on the ground, or drill a hole in the soap and hang them'f..rom trees. · • Chili powder, cayenne pepper and hot ,peppers. ·Matthews suggests chopping some peppers in a blender and add water, let the soluuon stand overnight, then strain it throl!gh c~esecloth and ernpty into a spray bottle. · · •;rvenever seen ·a pepper plant, sweet or hot, that's been bothered by adeer," Matthews said.. . • Mothballs. ~ They're dangerous around vegetables because of their chemical coptent and work great in flower · beds but could be spotted by curious childre.n. Try crushing them to a less-detectable size.. "Something unnatural like soap. dryer sheets or human hair ....:. I don't .want h\lman hair on my tomato plants," . Matthews sa~d. "You've got to think logica)ly about how you apply this stuff." • Blood meal. The nitrogen"rich granular fertilizer repels deer ~ut is attractive ~o do$s. . .. . : If Vimal !ii;:III'C tlWties, ,SilCh as reflective matenal, flags, " b'alliXms, ·aluminum piI{ plates· anit•pajler· s~ftl' MallY · , · , · ·won't work ifthe wind is calm. · If cost isn't an option, a tall fence may outdo any horne remedy. . · An 8-foot fences is the most practical use around largerscale operations such as orchards,. said Steve Miller, a . research horticulturist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Fruit Research .Stap,on in Kearneysville> , ''Somethirl~ in the kitchen cal;!inet is probably riot going to work;" he sat d. , · Al)otb~r ~ption is simply ·kn~wing what plants deer like . and don t hke. · · . .• Sorne of tbeir favorite candy?
