That country is not a friend to the USA, •or to peace-seeking Imqis and Afghans. French President Chirac continues to block efforts by the USA and Britain to bring stability to fonner .dic.tatorships and make it more difficult for homicidal terrorists to operate. Take a look at Chirac's recent resume: * Last week, he blocked a ·newly created NATO strike force from going to Afghanistan to provide extra security for elections. Chirac said: '(the strike force) should not be used for troop shortages on routine opero~tions.' * Chirac continues to insist tliat any NATO training of Iraqi forces be done outside that country. Of course that would create a logistical nightmare not to mention enonnous extra cost. * In Istanbul last week, Chirac again refu.sed to consider Turkey as an allied partner. You may remember in February, 2003, France vetoed any NATO defense of Turkey in case it was attacked by Saddam. * According to the London Times, and not --- t . . ~unbap 'aC(mes -~entinel · Reader Services ' ' Avenue, Gallipolis, OH 45631. . postage paid at Our main concern in al stories is to be Periodical accurate.

Now, Duke fans and officials wait ,anxiously to fmd out whether the Hall ofFamer will leave the elit~ prognun he has guided for 802 games over 24 years to become coach of the Los Angeles Lakers. "I think people ane honestly clueless about what's going to happen," Duke senior associate athletics director Chris Kenned,)' said Friday. '1 don't think Mike.knows what s going to happen nght now." Krzyzewski met with Los Angeles Lakersgeneral manager Mitch Kupchak on Thursday to di:;cuss the NBA team's coachirig vacancy. Lakers spokesman John Black refused to comment on reports that Krzyzewski was offered the job · - Ke~edy"said he didn't know if Krzyzewski had been offered the job. Krzyzewsk:i has been unavailable for coinment since holding an offseason news conference Thesday. He gave no indication he might leave the program. "My understanding is that he's in seclusion some place," Kennedy said. "He needs time and distance." • ·· A secretary stopped reporters who tried to visit the Duke basketball offices Friday, saying there were no coaches there: The 57-year-old Krzyzewski has led the Blue Devils to three national championships, and the school gave him a' lifetime contract three years ago. The hardwood at Cameron Indoor Stadiwn is named ''Coach K Court," and the grassy plot outside, where students camp out to attend games, is known as "Krzyzewskiville." On Thursday night, after Duke officials acknowlepged Krzyzewski was talking with the Lakers, about I00 students and fans gathered there with signs and flags urg\!Jg the c~h to stay. On Fridl!y afternoon, the only actiVIty around Cameron was a YQ!Ith basketball camp. "The timetable is Mike's," said John Burness, Duke's senior vice president for public and government relations. "We want to make sure he has time to make the d~ision that's best for him and his family, and hopefully for Duke and college basketball." from -Page 81 Zanesville (24-8) d walk d · t t 0 b tt _ t an e JUS ~ ,a ~rs, bu two of those htts came tn the th1rd mmng when Post 29 scored the only run of -the contesMt. . , · ' etf:s game against Portsmouth, which was p ayed at Dalton Field, was tied at 1-1 h'eadmg into the final frame.

Three consecutive hits followed , giving Meigs the lead plus an insurance run.

Andy Parsons followed with a single through the middle of the infield to plate his former Wellston teammate Crabtree.

Sharapova, playing in her first Grand Slam final, put on a virtuoso performance against the six-time Grand Slam winper. She showed no signs of nerves and kept Williams on the defensive, hitting 17 winners and only II el'fors. ·It was the most lopsided women's final since Steffi Graf beat Monica Seles 6-1, 6-2 in 1992. "I don't know how I won," Sharapova said. "I don't , know what the tactics were. I was in my own little worldI don't know what that world was really." · And she did it after coming down with a bad sore throat Friday night. "I. was in tears because I didn't think I'd be ready to play a Wimbledon final and win," she said.

Sharapova showed right from the outset that she was.n'dntimfdated by Williams. She moved her from side to side. She stepped in on short balls and knocked off winners. She mixed searing gro_undstrokes with topspin lobs. She pumped her fists. ''She's kind of like me," Williams said. "She doesn't back off, she keeps giving it her all." From 1-1, Sharapova won five straight ga~p.es to win the opening set in 30 minutes. Williams went up a break at 4-2 in the second, but Sharapova broke right back and won the last four games. . , Sl!arapova was born m Siberi~ -?/ and moved at a young age to th~ Black Sea resort of 'Sochi.

"Forever Freedom" was the theme of the parad'e led by Worl.f.\, War II veteran Paul Taylor in a decorated scooter followed by the American Legion honor guard and the Meigs Marauder Band.. . The patriotic theme was depicted in costuming and clecorations of tloats, vehicles, antique cars, trucks and' tractors, bicycles and fourwheelers, as well as on the dozen or so horses which clogged down Main Street. First place ·trophies for parade entries in the respective categories were present- . ed to Lacee Armes for horses; Lindsey Hysell and Austin Aclkins for bicycles/4wheelers; · B&G Motors for antique tractors; Terry Powell for antique cars; Henry Eblin hi s church bus for best . . -_ religious ent_ry; Jody Brothers· of Ohio Valley Game Birds for best walking entry; and Rutland Boys Minor League for best non-religious float. Following the parade activities got underway in the Rutland Park wh.ere the firemen .staged their traditional ox roast, and ice cream and cotton candy stands opened for the enjoyment of the crowd .
