The company first projected annual earnings of $1.80 to $2. then lowered expectations in August to $1.60 to $1.70. Analysts surveyed by Thomson First Call expected annual earnings of $1.46. Last year Bob Evans ended at $2.03 per share. "While we are moving aggressively to identify patential new products and other strategies to improve our performance. we are now assuming that same-store sales and profitability will remain under pressure for the next two quarters," said Stewart Owens, chairman and chief executive, in a statement. Same-store sales, often considered the best indicator of. sales health, were down 4.2 percent in the second quarter that ended Oct. 29 . The company blamed hurricanes in Florida and the concentration of Bob Evans restaurants in the Midwest, where the economy is still struggling. Owens also mentioned competition from chains such as Applebee's and even new Bob Evans locations drawing customers away from older ones. Labor costs were up because it added greeters and · wait staff to speed service, and high hog prices drove down profits for the company's sausage and similar products sold in grocery stores. However, same-store sales were up at the company's Mimi's Cafe restaurants, acquired in July. The company will halve openings of new Bob Evans locations to about 20 next year and open 15 new Mimi's, up from 12 openings this year. The company · operates 580 Bob Evans restaurants and 85 Mimi's Cafes, mostly in California. Second-quarter profits released Monday were $1 0.6 million, or 30 cents a sharebeating analysts' expectations by a penny but down from $17.9 million and 51 cents a share in the same quarter a year ago. Shares of Bob Evans were down 5 cents at $24.92 in afternoon trading Wednesday on the Nasdaq stock market. The stock has traded at $34.37 to S22.49 over the past year.

Indeed , possibly not since 1928. when Herbert Hoover crushed "blue state" Roman Catholic Democrat AI Smith of New York. (Ironically, Deep South states loyal to segregationist Democrats supported Smith when even his home state did not. ) Anyway, we all remember how well that worked out. "This was Providence, " said former Nixon aide Charles Colson, Watergate con vert. era j ai Ihouse "Anybody looking at the 2000 election would have to say it was . ... a miraculous deliverance, and I think people felt it again this year." Bush's second term, Colson thinks, is God's way of "giving us a chance to repent and to restore some moral sanity to American life." Had Kerry prevailed, maintained Southern Baptist leader Richard Land, who meets regularly with White House political strategists. it would have signal ed that God . had cursed the Uni ted States. "The Bible s~ys godly leadership is a sign of God's blessings and a lack of godly leadership is a sign of God's judgment, " he opined. "I don't see Kerry as a god ly leader." Now cal l me anything you like, but I see no evidence that God ordains lhe winners of elections any more than football games. (I've yet to see a quarterb'ack point Gene Lyons heavenward after throwing an interception.) But havii1g · lived in the Bible Belt for many years, I've learned a few things worth keeping in mind as we stumble toward the second term of God's own president.

Johnson Local Briefs Dinner to be served Offers clinic accredited judge and past president of the OAGC, offered several tips about arranging which novice exhibitors might find helpful. Bolin described the difference between creative design which is contemporary and abstract, and traditional design which is natural, geometric, including Oriental , European and early 20th Century period design. She said that once the traditional desi gns have been mastered, many arrangers go on to explore more imaginative channels for arranging !lowers. "Those become creative designs," said Bolin. Traditional de sign, she said, is an "orderly arrangement of the parts to each other and to their environment. while interpretive design is the designer'.s own feeling, idea or u'anslation of the class title being depicted. On the other han<~, Bolin said creative design is an art form begun in the mid to late 20th century and incorporates space within space allowing the artist to organize the principles of design into a more personal art form.

Troy S. Stewart, the victim of a shooting that occurred Tuesday in Point Pleasant, was in stable condition but' remained in intensive care at St. Mary's Medical Center in Huntington. W.Va. Stewart was injured Tuesday when he went to the Loren Wamsley residence at 11 3 Pleasant St., Point Pleasant, to question a juvenile when he was allegedly shot by another juvenile at the premises. The weapon used was a shotgun. Sheriff Scott Simms said the alleged shooter, a 16-yearold male, is being held at the Tiger Morton Juvenile Detention Center in Dunbar. "I don't understand it,'' Simms said of the shooting, visibly upset. "Thi s will affect his (Troy's) life forever, and Suspect from Page A1 night that Shealey might be in Gallia County. Information was developed that he was staying at the Super 8. He had been listed as "armed and dangerous" on the Detroit Police Department Web site. Sharon Smith , general manager at the Super 8, said she got a call from Gallipolis police Wednesday morning. "They asked if we had anybody meeting this man 's description staying here, and I said we did," Smith said . Shealey had registered at the Super 8 under hi ~ brother's name. At 10:30 a.m., five Gallipoli s police otficers went to arrest him. "The police officers came in and were going to his room, and right then he came out of his room to the front desk to get some toiletries," Smith said. "The police saw him, and they went back out the door and around the side. "Before you knew it, he was on the ground and they had him handcuffed." Brandeberry commended his officers. · "We caught him unaware," the chief said "He really didn't get an opportunity to resist or flee. Our offioers did a great job taking those options away from him." Shealey is lodged in the Gallia County Jail, where he will remain until either the FBI or Detroit authorities come to get him. his family. And for what? "Thi' i> the 'econd law enforcement officer shot in Mason County in tv. o years. It's bad." Simms made a second trip to Huntington Wednesday ahernoon to visit with Stewart. Mason County Prosecuting Attorney Damon Morgan 'aid the juvenile was technically a delinquent child. If he were an adult. he would be charged with malicious wounding of an officer. and attempted murder. Morgan said that he intends to file a motion to transfer the juvenile to adult jurisdiction. If tried as an adult and found gui lt y of the two charges, the sentence for each is not le ss than three years and not more than 15 years in a state penitentiary. The sentences could be served concurrently or consecutively. A preliminary hearing has been set for Friday morning . Brandeberry commended the staff at the Super 8 for cooperating with the arrest. and Smith said they were very happy to have done so. "Anytime we have a problem. all we have to do is pick up the phone and the police are here ... she said. " It was just community involvement and helping to keep the community safe." Acc9rdi ng to the · Detroit Police Public Information Office, the circum stances involving the murder for which Shealey was wanted were as follows. On Nov. 22, 2003, Shealey went to a woman's house m Detroit/ The woman's boyfriend was there, . and a dispute ensued between Shealey and the boyfriend, who threw a rock at him. Shealey then allegedly went to his car, got a gun. came back and shot the victim . Gallipolis officers are becoming all too familiar · with suspects from Detroit. who apparently are finding Gallipolis a convenient stop between Detroit and Charleston. While this is the first murder suspect seen here, Brandeberry said his department has received calls about eight or I0 drug-crime suspects in the past two years. "This is another example of the criminal element coming into our area from Detroit because of crack cocaine," he said. ·•our officers have had to train and adapt to deal with the level of violence that these individuals are prepared to use.

UM's Hart Herd prepares for final MAC run chooses • Jeers over cheers Marshall Basketball BY JOHN RABY Associated Press HUNTIN GTON, W.Va. - If Marshall wa nts to challenge for a championship in its fi nal season in th e Mid-American Co nference, guard Enoch Bunch says the focus shouldn 't be on scori ng and ge tting rebo und s. "You' ve got to have that mentality each and every ga me ," Bunch said. "It 's mai nl y, like coach preac hes, the defense. You 've got to be hard-nosed, just dive on the fl oor for a loose ball and sacrifice your body each and every night. That's how it has to be to win this co nference ." Unlike the past kw years, superstar perfo rmances likely will have to come on defense. Mars hall doesn't have a show stopper to follow in the footsteps of Marvin Black's two 30point games a year ago or Ro nald Blackshear' s 20point scoring average the season before that. Marshall will try to improve on a fourth-place fimsh in the East Division. "We can't inject somebody into a Marvin Black role ," coac h Ron Jirsa said. "We're going to have to play all of our roles in a bigger and better way to fi ll in and go beyond to losing our leading scorer and rebounder." Seniors Bunch, David Anderson. A. W. Hamilton and Ronni e Dawn comprise the nucleus of the team, along with sophomore Tre Whitted and junior Mark Patton . . "I think we'll be pretty balanced thi s year," Patton · said. "I think we all can score in our ow n ways, whether it be Ronn ie Dawn shootin g a 3 or O.A. getting in the post."

MANLEY'S SElf STORAGE 97 Beech Street Middleport, OH TRucKs tlJRSALE North Bridge Plus magazine, urider the editorship of Elena Jeronimidis, comes !rom England. It is in a small-page format with a content aimed primarily at tournament players, but there are articles for improvers. Today's problem from the. magazine raises several important points. Look only at the North and East hands. Against three no-trump, your partner (West) leads the spade eight. How would you plan the defense? South might pass on round two. After all, he has a min1mum open ing with excellent defense again st spades. North would reopen with either a takeout double (perhaps leading to one spade doubled down one) or a game-forcing two-spade cue-bid {resulting in three no-trump by South). With three low cards in your partner's suit. lead your lowest if you have not raised his suit. (Lead you r highest if you have supported.) So, East knows that West started with eight-doubleton in spades. \He cannot have a singleton, because that would give ·south five .) When declarer has two stoppers in the suit you are trying to establish, make him burn up one of them at the first trick. East should cover the spade eight wi th his nine. South must wi n with the 10 and play a diamond, bu t West goes in With his king and returns his second spade. This allows East to set up his suit while he still has the diamond ace as an entry. Note that if East ini tially plays the spade jack, South gets home by letting him take the trick.

National Foolbal Chad Johnson expects to celebrate League No more Knorr, Bt AMERICAN CONFERENCE BY JoE KAY Associated Press CINCINNATI - Ignoring advice · Ch d J0 h k a nson says to eep qUiet, he's ready to celebrate a touchdown catch against the Pittsburgh Steelers this weekend. His coach sounds like he's ready to throttle him. The Cincinnati Bengals' chatty finally said, with annoyance in his eyes and disappointment in his tone. "It's not his fine that's as signiticant as if we get a penalty.'' . Or, a pumped-up opponent. The Pro Bowl receiver has repeatedly angered Lewis by guaranteei ng wins and tweaking opponents leading up to games. His most famous outburst _ guaranteeing a win over previously unbeaten Kansas City last season - drew attention and divided the locker room. Several veterans told him it isn't wise to rile receiver asked fans on Wednesday to bring donations to cover the tine he'll receive for a planned touchdown celebration against the up the opposition. · s 1 Despite a promise to change this ~ ~~d all fans 10 bring a dollar 10 season, Johnson has found it tough to keep quiet. the gate," Johnson said.

Ray Lewis called a few seconds. "It' t ·se th'111 g" Le · Johnson with some advice: Keep s no a wt ' wts your mouth shut and play. With a pivotal game at hand, he's at it again. A 17-10 victory over Washington improved the Bengals to 4-5 heading into their rematch with the Stcelcrs (8-1). A victory would leave Cincinnati with three consecutive wins, a little momentum and an outside chance to make the playoffs. Aut the closing schedule is dauntmg. Unprovoked, Johnson said the capacity crowd at Paul Brown Stadium on Sunday can expect a show. "That means I've got a special celebration when I hit the end zone," Johnson said. "Bring a dollar to the gate for my fine ." Johnson was fined for three touchdown celebrations last season: $5,000 for a photo pose witb teammate Peter Warrick in the end zone, $5,000 for a throat-slash gesture to the crowd, and $10,000 for holding up a preprinted sign that read: "Dear NFL: Please don't tine me again." Before this season started, Johnson promised a new touchdown celebration. one that wouldn't draw a 15·yard penalty under the NFL's stricter rules. He has yet to unveil it - he's had only two touchdown catches all season. His first came while the Bengals trailed in the opener against the Jets, the wrong time to use it. The other catch came in a Monday night victory over Denver, but Johnson had been warned by the Bengais not to do anything to call attention to himself on national television. "I was told not to celebrate before the game started," he said then. Johnson gave Pittsburgh's defense unusually glowing praise on Wednesday before getting around to his end zone plans. ''This defense is a little different from everybody that we've played," Johnson said. "Watching them on film, it's unbelievable. It's sort of unfair what they have out there on the defense. Seriously. Just looking at the names, the personnel you have to go against, there's no weak link where you can attack.'' His celebration comment made sure there would be no letdown, either. Fans scream but Browns rally around Davis Bv ToM WITHERS Associated Press BEREA - Those "Butch Must Go" chants are picking up in volume, frequency and harshness with each passing Sunday. Stop anywhere along the shores of Lake Erie and you're bound to ·hear the screams. So far, though, they' re being ignored in Cleveland's locker room - and apparently in owrter Randy Lerner's office, too. The Browns say they believe in coach Butch Davis, whose job may be on the line over !be next seven weeks. "He's not going anywhere," said offensive tackle Ryan Tucker. "People can get as loud and cr.JZy a' they want, him and Randy have a good relationship. Randy's got a plan and it's not firing the head coach. "You do that. you're starting :~ 1 over again." After being throttled by the rival Pittsburgh Steelers last week, some Cleveland fans think it's time they did The Browns (3-6), who play the New York Jets on Sunday, are in last place in the AFC North. They' ve lost four of five games and public pressure is mounting for Lerner to replace Davis, who is 24-33 in the regular sea,on and 0-1 in Cleveland's only playoff game since 200 I. Davis is under contract through 2007. Lerner has not publicly commented on Davis' future. However, he has assured Tucker, one of the team's most respected veterans and leaders. that he has no plans to make a coaching change. ''I've talked to Randy and he (Davis) is not going anywhere,'' said Tucker. who last spoke to Lerner on Saturday at the team 's hotel. "Everybody can relax about that deal.'' Lerner doesn't like what's goi ng on, either. But he's not about to lay all the blame for tl1e team's woes on Davis. Lemer is far more troubled with !be perception that the Browns have quit on Davis than anything. "He doesn't like that stuff flying around," Tucker said. "Especially in this locker room. Nobody's talking about it here. It's more the outside people saying, 'Butch is on his last legs.' He's not." The Bmwns seem united in their support of Davis, who addressed his shaky status following Sunday's Joss for the tirst time. To a man, the players are bothered by the outcry to dismiss Davis, saying !be onus is on them to play better. Unless tl1ey do, their employment could be shortlived a' well. "If we play soft, we're not going to be here and he's not going to be here," defensive end Kenard Lang said. •·so we've got to play good. There's 31 other teams out there. You're just not playing for the Cleveland Bmwns. Everyone else in the league sees. If you do bad here, what makes you think you're going to ftnd a job somewhere elser' Browns quarterback Jeff Garcia has grumbled about the team's inadequacies most of the season. At various times, he has criticized the play calling, his offensive line, Davis labeling him "skittish" and the failure of Cleveland's coaching staff to design plays that best suit his strengths. But despite his long list of complaints, Garcia said he is on good terms with Davis and is committed to leadinj! for him. ''Thts team definitely believes in coach Davis," said Garcia, who regrets some of his recent critiques. ''Coach Davis can't be on the field when mistakes are taking place. That's·up to the players to correct." Tucker wa~ even more adamant that it's time for the Browns to be more accountable. In his mind, Davis has taken too much heat already.
