Teens generosity gives life to multiple organ recipients DEAR ABBY: One evening as· I was preparing dinner, my teenage son, Allen, came to me and asked whether or not he should check "yes" to organ donation on his driver's license. I was shocked and unprepared to address the subject, but he persisted, saying, "If I don 't need my organs, Mom, and they ~an help someone else - why not?" One year later, our beloved 17-year-old son suffered a traumatic brain injury in an automobile accident. As his father .and I sat by his side, it became clear that Allen's life was to be no more. Brokenhearted, we desperately searched for guidance to somehow extend his · time with us. But Allen had already given us the answer - . tliat evening discussion as I was preparing dinner. Our son became a true hero the next day, when he donal. ed the gift of a kidney/pancreas to a 29-year-old father of three boys. His left kidney, heart , liver, intestine and corneas went to other people in need of the "gift of life." Allen's love lives forever in our hearts, and his circle of life continues within the lives of those he saved. This summer, I will see firsthand the power of Allen's gift of life as I join his kidney/pancreas recipient and thousands of others at the Olympic-style National Kidney Foundation U.S. Transplant Games, where he will celebrate and pay tribute to the gift of life. April is National Donate Life month. In the spirit of love, I am thankful for Allen, the wonders of transplantation and the miracle of life. - ALLEN'S MOM, AKA JEAN JANOHOSKY, MINNEAPOLIS . DEAR JEAN: Your letter touched my heart. Please accept my condolences for the loss of your son, and my admiration for your courage and determination \O see that his wishes Were carried out. Readers, I encourage all of you to talk to your loved· ones, listen to them, and say "yes" to giving the "gift of life."

They 'have gone beyond being dissenters , which is fine in a democracy, to undermining America's effort to make our homeland safer and the world a better place to live. The old timers all agreed that politics ends at the· water's edge. It was thought treasonous to use rhetoric that gave aid and comfort to our enemy. We would all close ranks behind our leaders, especially in times of war. · I must be disclosing my age, for this is not our practice today. I still remember walking guard duty at 3 a.m. in Marburg, Germany, in the Army of Occupation, and wondering whether there were· members of the Hitler Jugent, brainwashed youth, hiding in the darkness. And, those were times when ail Americans gave full support to the tropps and our commander-in-chief. Typical Americans are being put at a disadvanta11e today for th.ey are given biased information, or sometimes JUSt hype. I was sitting in the barbershop recently where a Marine, recently returned from Iraq. was getting a haircut. We were interest.ed in what he. thought about the information Americans were .getting about the Iraq War, was progress being made etc. He told of a media person who was with them at a dedication of a new hospital, when a bomb went off down the street.

Social Security has been dropped from the nation's reform agenda for now. Energy, drug abuse and crime are not expected to be acted on anytime soon. Surpri singly, while . the war in Iraq and against terrorism has dominated the national dialogue and news coverage, Iraq did not make Gallup's list of top 12 concerns. The "possibility of future terrorist attacks in the U.S." doesn't even make the top five but comes in at No. 6 with.45 percent. Inexplicably, despite Bush's low marks on the economy (contrary to all of the evidence that the economy is strong and the national unemployment rate is low), the majority of Americans polled do tiot pick it as their chief worry. Indeed, the economy is at No. 7 with 43 percent and unemployment is at No. 11. Less than one-third (31 percent) of Americans now say that jobs are a major c~m­ cern, findings that are at odds with polls showing deep dissatisfaction about the economy. While immigration is the hottest issue in Congress these days, it barely makes the top 10 at No. 9, drawing 43 percent of only Americans who rate it as a chief worry. But that's · up Hi points from a year ago. Rounding out the list of the top-12 concerns are hunger and homelessness at No. 8 with 43 percent, the environment at No. 10, with 40 perce.nt, and at. the bottom of the list is race relations at No. 12, drawing only 22 percent. The news media has been pounding the theory of global warming of late, so that probably has a lot 10 do with its place on the list. The debate over illegal aliens no qoubt has pushed ,race relations up slightly as an issue, particularly among immigrant minorities, bu't this is clearly not a signifi· cant worry among the public at large. What are we to make of all this? First, issues that are pushed to the front of the congressional agenda are not necessarily things that a majority of Americans worry about . most. Other factors, like who can build a head of steam and public outrage for an issue, can push it to front of the line, when most Ar(lericans are more concerned about .other matters that affect them personally.

Although she no longer resides in the area, she ·has generously endowed the OVS over a period of years so as to bring professional music to local residents andyouths. "The world would be a better place if everyone listened to syiiij)Wonic-ritu~ic," says Mrs. Dater. The evening starts with a grand flourish as the brass players herald the gift with Aaron Copland's noble Fanfare for the Common Man. Bach's Air on a G String, Elgar's Military March No. I and the "March" from Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 will be'.heard as well. The OVS has commissioned a new work from Composer In Residence, Scott Michal, as a tribute to Mrs. Dater.

She came to the United States ut a~:~e 12 to study at the Curtis Institute of Music, where she receiVed the Most Outstanding Student award ..

It's the NCAA tournament, football style, where ·even outnumbered schools like Ripley, Greenbrier West and Bishop Donahue can dream big. The idea is an offshoot of a proposal passed Tuesday by the Secondary School Activities Commission's j3oaril of Control to create a fourth class for football. The overall proposal, submitted by Wheeling Park Principal Christine Carder, is aimed at narrowin~ the difference in school stze within each class . The state Board of Education must accept or reject the prOf!OSal. If accepted, the SSAC's 10-member Board of Directors would tackle the task of how to implement it. .

And it doesh 't take seat and pretended to go what the winning score will even tougher on the mind more. "He (Jones) probably was hitting into a green that ran at 2 on the Stimpmeter," said ~etief Goosen. "The condiuon of the greens now are different than the_y wer~ in the 1900s. You hil a 3-uon on the front of that green, it tolls off into the wat~r." And· then there s the weather. A~leas and d~gwoods are blaztng even bnghter .under a warm sun . The lightly !DO":'n grass ben~ath the feet t~ f1rm, not slippery. Not smce 2001 has the MaSters been contested over four days in relatively dry, fast conditions. That's a significant date, because serious expansion at Augusta National didn't start until the next year. ' "We haven't really played many Masters with dry conditions yet," Ernie Els said. "We might find out this week." The final day of .practice revealed ~orne potential problems, with wedge shots bouncing hard off the green, then crawling endlessly until AUGUSTA, Ga. - One lly one, players trudged up lhe hill leading to the clubllouse at Augusta National, )hen paused and gazed back. -at a course that by now they should know all too well . But this Masters sc,:ems to "contain more mystery than -ever. : Part of that is the sheer ~ength . The tees were pushed back on six holes. stretching lhe course to 7,445 yards, the second-longest course in major championship history behind Whistling Straits l7.514 yards) two "years ago ::;tt the PGA Championship.. : The par-3 fourth hole now 1s 240 yards; requiring most players to hit fairway metal, and some players to hit a driver. The par-4 ll th is 505 ,.ards, with trees to the right .Qf the landing area and a ~ond to the left of the green l"eady to swallow up any mistake . Masters chairman Hootie Johnson vigorously defend~d the changes Wednesday, :especially at N(}. II, point-· jng out that Bobby Jones much to make a mi stake ~ound here. Then again, Goosen sa,id some of the longer holes were playing shorter than recent years because of the fir~J~ ground that ·allowed tee shots to roll. He cited No. 9, where he hit a big drive and a sand ' wedge, compared with a driver and a ?-iron last year in soft conditions. · What will it take to win?· "I don ' t see anyone in double figures ," Goosen said, adding that he would take 4 under par and like his chances . · . . This ts the ~0-year a~m~ersary of Jack Ntcklaus wtnntng the Masters at ev~n­ par 288, !he last .champton who wasn t under par. That's a possibility this wee~. . T~1s also 1s the 20-year anmversary of N1ckl~us shootmg 30 on toe back mne to win his sixth green jacket. On this course, that seems unlikely. Nicklaus returned to play in the Par 3 contest. He met with the press Wednesday over his round, as he had done for so many years. "First hole, I hi! a driver, 3-wood and a 7-iron ," Nicklaus said as the room broke out in laughter. Johnson said the reason for the change was to keep the course current with modern equipment and the modern player. His hope is. that players will be using roughly the saqte clubs as Arnold Palmer, Nicklaus and Tom Watson during their prime. · As far as Gary Player is concerned, it's working. " I'm using exactly the same dubs, other than No. 4," said Player, at 70 the oldest player in the 91-man field. "I was brainwashed into believing it would be abnormal with all the changes. But we're hitting the same club Jack Nicklaus did. I remember Jack hitting 5-iron on ]llo. II. The greens weren't as fast, but the fairways were lousy."

Here is another example that is e'asy for a count er, but impossible fo r a rote, unthinking player. After West Opens one spade, you (South) end in four hearts. West leads the spade king. East overtakes with the ace and retu rns his second spade. West wins wllh his elghl and leads lhe spade queen, East discarding a club. You ruff, but what would you do ne)(f?
