An inside look at this week's game

• 'M1e Urna News ph0105

Purdue and quarterbacks go together
Last season, after the Heisman Trophy coronation but
before the debacle in the
desert against Florida and
the mid-round NFL draft position, the conventional wisdom was. that Troy Smith
was the greatest quarterback
in Ohio State history.
You could make strong arguments that he is. Three
wins over Michigan lead the
list of his qualifications.
But you could also take the
other side of the debate and
present other candidates with
solid credentials.
But if you want to see a real

Before Bob Griese was a
television announcer and the
father of the Chicago Bears
quarterback, he was a Purdue quarterback.
He is in the Pro Football
Hall of Fame and led the
Miami Dolphins to a Super
Bowl title.
Before Griese did it, former Purdue QB Leri Dawson
was a Super Bowl-winning
quarterback with the
Kansas City Chiefs. He's
also in the Hall of Fame.
· Several other NFL quarterbacks, like Jim Everett,
Mark Herrmann, Kyle Orton

and Mike Phipps, have come
out of Purdue.
Purdue has a reputation
as a quarterback school,
which is interesting for a
school located in a small
city, in the middle of corn
fields.
It would seem like quarterbacks would gravitate to the
bright lights. Maybe they figure the bright lights will fmd
them at Purdue.
Whatever the reason, Painter
- the latest Boilermakers
playmaker - will be the center
of attention for Ohio State's
defen&amp;ron Saturday night.

And so began a nightmare for the two Special

Afghans involved reported
the killing to their government, and the United
States Army was asked to
investigate. Two separate
probes cleared the Green
Berets of any wrongdoing.
But that wasn't enough for

But the point is that dark

touched it.
Since the friendly-fire
killing of Sgt. Pat Tillman
in Afghanistan, American
authorities have been
jumpy.
The
pro-U.S.
Karzai government usually plays to its fundamentalist Muslim base in any
controversy, demanding
investigations into the
conduct of Western forces
for show. It's all about
public relations.
Thus, seemingly employing a bizarre political correctness, General Kearney
prolonged the ordeal of the
two Green Berets when he
shouldn't have. It was a
political play, pure and
simple.
After months of agony
and uncertainty, Major
General Thonias Csrnko,
commander
of Army
Special Forces at Fort
Bragg, exonerated Captain
Staffel and Sgt. Anderson
of any wrongdoing. Said
the General: "(We) take all
credible allegations of misconduct seriously."

Great. Only one problem :
There were no credible
allegations of misconduct.
According to investigators,
the Green Berets did their
duty. They killed a known
terrorist on the battlefield.
General Kearney, feeling
the media heat after the
acquittal, issued his own
statement: "rThe investigation) demonstrates the

To that I say: bull.
Most troops in Iraq and
Afghanistan will tell you

dangerous and stupid. The
terrorists can 'and will do
anything, including hiding
behind children to shoot at
Americans. But U.S. troops
have to restrain themselves
at nearly every turn
because some opportunistic
officers and a corrupt
American press are ready
to turn every mistake into a

Remember, The New

Wright brother
achievements

ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

DAYTON - A replica of
the Wright brothers' plane
crashed Friday during a
· demonstration to inark the
I 02nd anniversary of the
flight that the aviation pioneers called.a display of the
first practical flying machine.
There were no injuries,
but the crash damaged the
replica of the 1905 Wright
Brothers Flyer Ill - .a frag ile aircraft made ·primarily
of wood and 'fabric.
The plane came down
about 30 seconds into the
flight in front of hundreds
of spectators at Huffman
Prairie. where Wilber and
Orville Wright tested their
airplanes and taught themselves to fly. The airfield is
now part of WrightPatterson Air Force Base.
The plane's motor and
frame were functioning :
properly when he took off,
said pilot Mark Dusenberry.
But the aircraft began oscillating and moving up and
down between 20 feet and
five feet off the ground in
roller-coaster fashion . As
the plane turned, one of the
wingtips hit the ground,
bringing the aircraft down.
Amanda Wright Lane, great
grandniece of the Wright
brothers, said that, while the
plane came to the ground
"very unceremoniously," the
flight itself brought tears of
happiness to her eyes.
Lane said her ancestors
crashed numerous iimes on
the prairie as they tested and
perfected their airplane. She
said Friday's outcome made
her even more impressed
with what they, accomplished by themselves.
Yevgeny Zvedre, space
attache at the Russian
Embassy in Washington, was
in town to mark the Wright
brothers' anniversary and the
50th anniversary of Spuhlik,
the frrst artificial satellite,
which was launched by the
Soviets and circled the globe
Oct. 4, 1957.
Zvedre said he would
have preferred to have seen
a longer tlight, but was
impressed nevertheless.
"It was the first time in
my life l saw such a beautiful, ancient plane flying ,"
he said. "Why should l be
disappointed?"
Witnesses said the plane?s
undercarriage was broken up
and the propellers dama~ed.
"It's
fixable,"'
said
Dusenberry, but added that
repairs might take up to two
years. He said it took him
seven years to construct the
plane.
Dusenberry, 47, an Ohio
Department
of
Transportation engineer, said
he taught himself to build the
aircraft by using blueprints
he obtained from the 1905
Wright plane displayed at
Carillon Park in Dayton.
He flew it initially on
property at his Dennison
home before participating in
public events. He said the

damage. The
plane flew as
part of the
102nd anniversary of the

in 1905.

1905: The Wrights test

Dayton, Ohio, and later
declare they have the·
first practical airplane.
1906: The U.S. Patent
Office grants a patent to
the Wrights on their airplane control system.
1908: The Wrights

Europe and America.
1909: Orville Wright

plane has stayed in the air
anywhere from five seconds
to two minutes per flight.
The Wright brothers' frrst
flight occurred Dec. t 7,
1903, at Kill Devil Hills, a
barren stretch of sand dunes a
few miles south of Kitty
Hawk, N.C. The brothers
made four flights that day, the ·
longest lasting 59 seconds.
But the Wrights couldn't
steer the plane or be assured
it could land safely, so they
returned home to Dayton and
began working on a maneuverable, controllable aircraft.
When it came time to test
the plane, they settled on
Huffman Prairie, a sevensided, 84-acre pasture outside Dayton· owned by a
family friend. It was there
that the Wrights tested modifications to their airplane
and learned to fly.
In 1904, the brothers made
I 05 flights and · were in the
sky a total of 45 minutes.
They made their first lUll!
Sept. t 5, t 904, and their first
circle five days later. The
following year, they made
50 fliahts and were in the
sky 5liours, 30 minutes.
· On Oct. 4, t 905, the
Wrights kept the plane air::._
borne for 32 minutes. The
following day, they invited a
few close friends to observe.
For 39 minutes, they
watched Wilbur Wright do
circles and figure eights at
an average speed of 38
miles per hour. The flight
satisfied the Wrights that
the plane could take off
under its own power, be ·
fully controlled and maneuvered and land safely.
At the end of the flight,
they declar~d that they had
the world's first practical
airplane.

FRANKLIN FURNACE
- South Gallia was determined to avoid its fourth
loss in a row Friday night
and, unfortun ately for
Green . th~t meant someone
'had to feel the Rebel wrath.
Led by Vance Fellure and
John Well s, the South
Gallia football squad broke
up its three game losing
skid Friday night with a 3422 victory over Green in
dominating fashion .
The Rebels jumped out to
a 34-6 lead by the erid of
the third quarter with only
a. few late scores by the
Bobcats allowing the game
to get any closer. Fellure
led SGHS with 84 yards on
12 carries and rushed for
three scores while Wells

added 91 yards th;ough the
air on a very efficient 8for-I 0 passing.
Now that is the kind of
footb all South Gallia is
used to pl ~y ing.
The Rebels were determined to put last week's
mental collap se that re sulted in a 50-18 los s to
Portsmouth Notre Dame
behind them and move forward this week and that
they did. After giving up
over 400 yards on the
ground to the Titans last
week, South Gallia gave up
just 212 yards Frida);. with
a majority of that going to
the feature back of the
Bobcats who ru shed 12
times for 123 yards and a
score.
South Gallia, who had
six different players rush
for over 20 yards. had 264

yards on the ground and
355 total.
Arid the Rebels wasted
little time getting the
offense rolling .
The Red and White
scored midway through the
first quarter on a seven
play drive using a slew of
running pla'Y's and was
capped· off when Fellure
rushed in the first of three
touchdowns from nine
yards out for a 6-0 lead

after the' tailed kick.
South Gallia scored again
eafly in the second quarter
on an impressive 12 ,play
drive that started in the first
and spilled into the second
quarter highli ghted by a big
p ~ss from Wells to Caleb
McClanahan and runs by
Tyler Duncan and Wells to
set up a one yard score bye
Fellure.
Green broke up the
SGHS scoring on its next
possession using a similar
drive of 15 yards capped
off by a !-yard run to give
the home team its first
score of the night.
But that is the last time
the Bobcats would be Close
as the Rebels fired off 21
unanswered points.
South Gallia scored once
more before the half using
a hurry up offense and six

passes from Well s to set up
an IS-yard scoring strike
from Well s to McClanahan
to put the visitors up 20-6
at the half.
The Rebels then added
two touchdown runs in the
third quarter to put the
Bobcats
away. Caleb
Ludwig had the first after a
long drive led by the rushing of Logan Wamsley and
Fellure to set up the 22yard touchdown run by
Ludwig. Fellure added the
other for hi s third score
when he capped a nine play
drive on a 2-yard run to put
his team up 34-22 . ·
With the game in hand,
SGHS moved several players in and out of the lineup
and in doing so Green managed two late four quarter
scores. but the late effort
came up short as the Rebels

held on for a 34-22 vi ctory.
Along with Fellure,
Ludwi g added 69 yard s and
a score and Well s scram ~
bled for 53 yards on II carnes. Wam sley posted 25
yard s, Tyler Duncan had 18
yards and Jeff Clyburn had
15 yards on seven carries.
Wells, who threw for 91
yards, saw most· of his
passes fall into the hands of
Ducan who hauled in four
catches for 39 ' yards :
McClanahan had a touch·
down to go afon g with
three catches for 38 yards
and Thomas Cook had a
reception for 21 yards. ·
With a win behind them,

overcame a. · series of

Tri-Valley
Conference
Hocking Division win
Friday night. Southern
sophomore Taylor Lemley
pounded through the endzone for both Southern
scores, carrying the ball 14
times for 48 yards in a great
effort.
Senior Ryan Chapman
started out as signal caller
and went I of 6 passing for
20 yards, but Chapman
hampered by injury moved
to wide receiver where he
excelled as part of a Jordan
Taylor-Chapman connection. Chapman caught five
passes for 86 yards as
Taylor completed 5 of 9
gasses on the night.
That
duo
set
up
Southern's second touchdown and allowed Southern
·to maintain possession
enough to keep Miller on
the long-side of the 50-yard
line. Luke Dillard caught a
pass for five yards, a'nd also
ran 31 yards on 10 carries.
Fighting an injury, Greg
Jenkins went 5-7, but his
effort was an· inspiration to
his teammates. Anthony
Shamblin was 3-9, Taylor 25, Chapman · 1-1 and Eric
Buzzard 1-2.
At the 6:33 mark of the
first quarter, Miller's Ryan
Green plunged in from one
yard out for the game's first
score. The extra point kick
failed and Miller led 6-0.
The two teams battled
hard in the trenches and in
the backfield, however,
penalties stalled both teams ,
esgecially Southern which
saw a 43-yard touchdown
from Chapman to Wes
Rif(le called back . ,
At the 4:25 mark before

halftime,
Southern's
J.R.Grady caught Miller for
a safety and a 6-2 tally. At
the I :37 mark,
Taylor
Lemley bulldozed 'in from
one yard out for Southern 's
first touchdown. The · kick
was void, but Southern held
the 8-6 lead and carried the
momentum into intermisSIOn.
Miller's first two drives
were of eight and nine
plays, however, only penetrated Southern territory
once.
Southern had possession
much of the third quarter,
barring an interception that
gave Miller a brief chance
at some yardage. With I :40
left in the third quarter,
Lemley 01ice again hammered through the line from
a yard out, but the EP kick
went wide. The score stood
at 14-6 Southern.
From that point on it
would
be
Southern's
defense that ruled. Miller
·ate up valuable ground time
with little success, and then
in the last series had three
incomplete ·passes and a
five-yard run that was halted to preserve the SHS win
deep into the final round.
Southern's last drive was
atwelve-yard drive that ran
the clock down to I :45. The
SHS defense held and

POCA, W.Va. - lt was
another step in the right
direction for the young Point
Pleasant Big Blacks - but
tht! progress was not enough
to overcome a hungry Poca
team on homecoming night.
The Dots (4-3) were able
to score a go-ahead touchdown with just 53 seconds
remaining on the clock and
knock off the Big Blacks ( 15) in a hard fought, high
octane offensive game.
"Tonight was just a great
hi gh school football game,"
said Coach David Darst.
"Our offense really got
rolling tonight, we had
almost 400 yards of offense,
turnover ratio was down,
and spread the ball around
well, it just came down to
the last 50 seconds of the
game."
The Point Pleasant rushing
attack continued their strong
rushing attack with 288
yards rushing - 119 of
those by freshman Allan
Wasonga. Tyler Grant had
64Jards on the night as well
an Derek Mitchell had 41.
The team ran the ball 54
total times and averaged
over five yards a carry on the
night.
·
However, the Poca offense ·
was able to match the Point
Pleasant attack nearly with
284 yards on the ground
along with 115 yards passing. Derek McClure had a
huge night for the Dots with
122 yards and a pair of
touchdowns.
The Big Blacks came into
the game with two new
quarterbacks however - · a
different look from the
beginning of the season.

Tribe fans upset with James'_support of Yankees
BY JOE MIUCIA
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

CLEVELAND - Maybe
LeBron James stepped over
the line with hi s allegiance
to the New York :Yankees.
A day after the Indians
routed the Yankees 12-3 in
their AL playoff opener
Thursday night, the buzz
around town wasn' t about
Cleveland 's
offensive
power surge or pitcher C.C .
Sabathia' s gutty performance .
Instead, fans jammed
sports talk radio lines and
Internet me-ssage boards,
crying foul over their frus tration with the NBA
superstar ' s
traitorous
appearance in the stands
wearing a Yankees cap.
"The guy is tbe face of
Cleveland sports and he's
not even rooting for a team
that 's 100 feet from the
building he plays in," said
Adam Burke, who was
waiting outside the leftfield gate for Game 2 on
Friday.

across a plaza from Jacobs

Field.

for
years, and

f
o
r
"Saturday Night Live" predicted the Yankees would
beat the Indians.
Fans have mostly tolerated James' decision to back
the hated Yankees, who
have been the Indians' foil
since the 1950s.
Bur last night's appearance behind home plate
wearing the dreaded interlocking "NY" insignia,
may have been too much to
bear. James not only wore
the cap, but he flaunted it,
at one point holding it high
over his head.
Later, though, as the
Indians began to pull away,
he put it on backward and
left the ballpark holding it
in his hands. One fan even
offered his Indians cap to
James, who slapped hands
with others as he exite\1.
Around town, James'
actions caused an uproar.
"LeBron James. King of
Nothing. Fan of Yankees.
Get Out of Town," read a
sign Friday at a Marathon
gas station in suburban
North Ridgeville.
"From a PR standpoint,

~

I .

that's a terrible decision,"
said Burke, 20; who doesrt't like ·that James has distracted from the Indians'
win . "That's the sad thing.
We dominate every aspect
of the game but LeBron's
dominating the airwaves.
Maybe he wants it that
way."
A few blocks away from
Jacobs Field, fans· were
still getting their pictures
taken in front o( the Nike
"Witness" billboard on the
side of a downtown office
building .
"So what if he wears a
Yankees hat?" said Willie
Watson of Clev~land. "He
wins games for Cleveland.
"So he likes the Yankees.
Boo hoo. Big deal. What's
next? We don't like him
because he listens to hipof the
hop
instead
.Cleveland Orchestra?"
Sabathia, who is friends
with James, has backed his
buddy's right to show
Yankee ~ride.
"I don t think it's that big
a deal," Sabathia said again
Friday. "I knew he was
coming, but 1 didn't know
he had a Yankees hat on
and stuff. My family told
_me r.eople were all over
him. '
James has been in the
spotlight since his sophomore year in high school.
His immense talent has
been matched by a maturity
beyond his years. He has
always spoken with diplomacy and grace in the

media spotlight.
This was a rare misstep
for James, whose every
move on and off the floor
has been scrutinized .
Sabathia, who grew up in
Vallejo, Calif., and is an
Oakland Raiders fan, said
he wouldn't hesitate to
show up at a Browns game ·
in a silver and black jersey.
- "If they played the
Raiders in a championship
· game, definitely I would,"
said the Game 1 starter, one
of several Indians , playe111

Hall of Farner Reggie
Jackson, who was a nationa! -icon on the level of
James 30 years ago,
f
h
thought or a moment w en
asked if he would have
done something similar.
"If I was in Oakland and
they were playing the San
Francisco Giants, would I
have worn, say a Willie
Mays
jersey?"
said
Jackson, who began his
career with the Athletics.
"Yes, I'd have to say so.
"That's because I could
say 'Willie Mays' before I
could say the word, 'baseball' growing up. He was
my hero."
The Yankees didn't see
anything wrong with what
James did, either.
"He's a Yankee fan. Why
would .that rub us the
wrong . way?" Yankees
super~tar Derek Jete.r said

cligitally from other instruments. It can also sample
digital recordings made
from other organs.
By comparison,
the

Klutenkamper is an
acclaimed artist who also
teaches at Shawnee State
University. She is also
active with the Society for
Photographic Education.
"Her work is beautiful,"
Allen said.
He •added that the artist's
work is also very conceptu:
al and very pertinent.
Klutenkamper earned her
MFA from the University of
Notre Dame and earned her
BFA from the University of
Missouri. Her work has been
exhibited around the country
and is enjoyed by people of
all ages and backgrounds. ·
The faceless women in her
photographs often . look
trapped in their settings and
duties. The settings often
cause feelings such as isolation, misery and confusion, as
opposed to the usual domestic feelings such as warmth
and security. The feelings and
messages in Klutenkamper's
work are uni versa!, speaking
to men and women of all
backgrounds.
The museum is open to
the public from I to 5 p.m.
Tuesdays through Sundays,
and admission ·is free .

ported by the Center for
Small
Business
Entrepreneurship at Rio
Grande. The lecture series
was originally created as a
program for the new Master
of Business Administration
((VIBA) in Entrepreneurship
program at RID Grande .
High and other Rio Grande
officials thought the series
was so .important that it was
decided to open up the presentations to all students
and area residents.
This is the first _year for
the new MBA program at
Rio Grande, and the new
Center for Small Business
~ntrepreneurship is an
mtegral part of the new
program. The MBA program is arranged so that it
cail assist existing businesses as well as help individuals interested in starting their own businesses,
while also providing · students with an exce ll ent
b~siness and entrepreneurship education to help
them in their own careers.
· According to High, oqe
main objective of the
Entrepreneurial Experience
series is to bring in business
leaders who have "been
there and done that," and
can share their stories with
the students.
The second presentation,
which is bein~ planned· for
November, will be led by
Corinie Freeman of Oak
Hill Banks: This event will
focus .on issues such as marketing and public relations,
and should be another out.standing · lec1ure. Qther

Years ago, chickenpox
was a right to passage f(lr
most children . Before 1995,
when a vaccine was introduced in the United States,
approximately 4 million
people, mostly children,
contracted chicken'pox each
year.
Chickenpox is a virus that
. causes fever and an itchy
rash. The rash is a blisterlike lesion that covers the
body, but mostly the face,
scalp and trunk. This rash
can easily become a bacterial infection that can cause
swelling of t)Je brain and
pneumonia. Chickenpox is
easily passed from person -to
person through the air by
coughing, sneezing, or
breathing, or by contact
with fluid from the chickenpox 'blisters.
Symptoms can last anywhere from three to five
days and the fever can
range from 101 to 103
degrees
Fahrenheit.
Chickenpox is usually con tagious one to two days
before the rash appears and
until all the blisters have
formed scabs. It can develop within 10 to 21 days
after contact with an
infected person. Children
without complications usually miss approximately
five to six days of school.
Before the vaccine, ·about
11,000 people were hospitalized with chickenpo_x
each year and approximately 100 . died in the
United States.
Vaccination is the best
way to prevent infection
with
Chickenpox .
Vaccination also helps protect others from the same
disease. Some children
cannot get vaccinated for
medical reasons, or some
children are unable to
respond to the vaccine. For
these children, the immunity of children around

But West Virginia, with
an abundance of log-, poul·
try- and coal-hauling routes,
is an ideal place for railroad
tourism. There are five
scenic railroads, one offering three trains and routes .
Though Cass is popular
all summer, crowds grow in
the fall when the mountains
turn gold, orange and red.
Starke's crew runs five cars
with 130 people on a typical
summer day, and nine cars
with 500 people in October.
Chris Guenzler, who has
· ridden more than I million
miles of rail since 1980,
says there are more than
200 tourist trains nationwide, and "West Virginia
has some of the best ...
probably the most scenic." ·
Guenzler, of Santa Ana,
·Calif., ranks Cass among
his favorites, along with the
Cumbres &amp; Toltec Scenic
Railroad in New Mexico
and . the Durango &amp;
Silverton Narrow Gauge
Railroad in Colorado.
New routes open almost
every year, but Guenzler says
there are challenges to stay·
ing in business. Key among
. them is the cost of liability
insurance, which skyrocket. ed after accidents.such..as the

The baking sun vanishes,

riders grow captivated by
Wildflowers, butterflies and
a fearlflss fawn that stands
on the track, staring until
the last possible moment
before scampering off.
When the. whistle blows,
white steam shoots skyward. And from time to
time, a cloud of acrid black

· for John Grencik, it only
adds to the authenticity of
the Cass Scenic Railroad.
" I love coal smoke. I get it
natural," says . Grencik, a
model train builder and the
descendant of railroad
workers on both sides of his
family.
Grencik, 76, traveled from
Bakersfield, Calif. , to ride a
railroad that draws 40,00070,000 tourists between
May and October, opting for
the five-hour journey to
Bald Knob, West Virginia's
third-highest peak.
The personal attention of
the crew, including an invitation to visit the maintenance
shop, made the experience
better than he' d hoped.
"If you want to see the
scenery and see nature as it
is - and you don' t want to
. do it fast - I'd give 'em
four stars," Grcncik says.
"It's gorgeou s. You picture
yourself 40 or 50 years ago,
the way thin gs used to be."
Cass Scenic Rai Iroad is a
unique state park, II miles
long and just 50 feet wide. At
.7 mph, the ride is slow but
steady. For every 100 feet the
train rolls forward, it rises 9
feet. As it does, a spectacular
panorama unfolds. with vis:
ta~ across the Alleghenies,
deep into Virginia.
"The views are breathtaking," says Dot Frank of
Woodsfield, Ohio.
As she and other tourists
gape and snap photos, conductor Bob Starke chuckles.
"I hear it every day, 'I had ·
no idea we· had this right
here in West Virginia! "'

That means o~erators
must reduce costs, m some

In West Virginia's Eastern

American bald eagle.
"You'd be surprised how
many people want to see an

Dave Corbitt. "These are
wild birds flying around,
and you can' t really count
on them, but luckily, · we
almost always see one."

Foster Sales a nd Delivery.
Thts was the se~011d fundrai sing event of this kmd. In
2005. a mimature horse
drawing brought in $6,000
for the 4-H youth of Gallia
County. Thi s year's goal
was to raise $5,000. however. though the dedication of
the 4-H Advisors Executive
Committee, Garrv Lewis
and the generous si1pport of
local bus inesses and i ndi ' iduals. we not met our goal
but more than doubled it. Our final figures show
that this event brought in
just over $10.400 for th e 4 H youth of Gallia County.
This money will be used
to - sponsor -4- H summer_
camp scholarships and the
2008 4-H camping program, Cloverbud activities.
including Cloverbud day
camp, Cloverbud overnight
camp and the new Clover
activities offered during the
fair. This money will a lso
help sponsor 4-H college
scholarships for graduating
seniors and 4-H nattOnal
and state trips for Gallia
County 4-H teens.
In addition to 4-H mem- .
bers. non-4-H members will
also benefit from these
funds, as monies will be set
asidy to cover cost for 4-H
after school and school
enrichment actiVI!les in
both the county and city

Coyotes are attempting to

the black-headed vulture

Since Mother Nature is
providing all the necessary
items to help our food supply grow and provide. why
are farmers so angry about
wildlife? Well, to be quite
honest, they are taking more
than their fare share. I talk
with many farmers who are
also avid hunters. Farmers
as a rule are nature lovers
who enjoy watching a
mother deer and her two
fawn s in the spring, or a
wild turkey in full strut.

Rutland Post Omce open;for busintss
BY BEnt 5eRaENr

RUTLAND - Nearly a year after it
.was dosed due to "environmental hazards" the Rutland Post Office has reopened
at its new location on Salem Street.
The new offide opened its doors to customers this past Wednesday with an official dedication to be planned in the near
future.
'
'Tm grateful we have it," Margaret
Edwards, Rutland's postmaster said.
Since the United States Postal Service
closed the fanner location on Main Street,
Edwards first worked out of Langsville
until that branch dosed on May 25 and
then at the Buchtel office. .
Edwards isn't the only one who is grateful Rutland is once again operating with a
post office. V~lage residents are also happy
to see the post office back in action and in
a brdlld-spanking-new building and all the
convenience that provides.
''They seem to like it," Edwards said of
the customers' feedback on the new facility which has the biggest parking lot in

town with 12 spaces.
The new building also has 295 post
office boxes, updated equipment and has
the smell of fresh paint and new everything.
Also, customers are no long getting mail
at the special boxes outside the Rutland
Civic Center which will soon be removed.
Last November officials with the USPS
said it wa5 conceivable Rutland would
have its new post office within a year and
it did, with one month to spare. The old
office on Main Street officially dosed on
Nov. I of last year.
As for how much the new building cost
taxpayers, calls to the USPS were not
immediately returned to The Daily
Sentinel.
Whatever the cost, the pellple seem to be
happy to have a pieee of the village back in
place, even if iCs sitting in a new place.
"We just want pellple to know we're
here and open for business," Edwards said.
The Rutland Post Office has resumed its
_regular office hours.

COLUMBUS (AP) - Routine
inspections revealed thar nearly
half of all Ohio school buses examined had at least one maintenance
problem, a database maintained by
the State Highway Patrol showed.
The Cleveland School system's
fleet fared the worst, with more
than .58 percent of the buses
inspected this year logging more
than five problems, ranging from
burnt out turn signals to cracked
axles.
. The patrol mandates that buses
used to transport pupils be "maintained without any defects," at all

times. However, on average the 70
pighway patrol inspectors found
one problem per bus, and about 700
of tl)e 22,600 school buses inspected since January 2006 had numerous problems.
During the annual state review,
inspectors note probJems rangi ng
from more imioc uou s - dirty
fl oors or missing d ~cal s - to
soberi·ng safety concerns - leaking
air-brake lines or tires lacking adequate tread. Even minor problems
are taken seriously. said Lt. John
· Boster, head of the patrol's Motor
Vehicle Inspection Unit.

Although the patrol can take
action· against private bus operators
such as contract operators or private schools, it has no authority
over public school districts and the
quality of maintenance programs
varies from district to district,
Boster said. '
Some districts operate buses
year-round while others shut down
for the summer, giving mechanics
plenty oftime to get the buses ready
for inspection.
