ACROSS 40 So-so

Soldier's wife hurt when
his parents ignore her
DEAR ABBY: For the two
I've been married to
'John," I have known his pareilts wished he had married
~omeone other than me. They
have never accepted me or
_ tried to get to know me as a
daughter-in-law. Family is
important to me. All I ever
hoped was that they'd give
me half a chance.
: I've told John how I feel.
He has yet to stand up for me.
What upsets me is his mom
and dad are nice to my face
and in John's presence, but
when he isn't around the&gt;'
ignore me. It's like I'm invistble.
·
My husband is in the mUitary. During the past year he
has been away on active duty,
his parents have never once
invited me to spend a holiday
or any other time with them. I
am always the one to reach
out. John is due home next
month, and I know my inlaws will try to "make ni.ce"
with me for his benefit - but
it's all fake.
If they truly wanted to get to
know me, they would have
tried while I was alone. (I live
less than a mile from them.) I
am sad, hurt and angry about
the way I've been treated in
my husband's absence. I love
him more than anything, but
my biggest fear is that when

r.ears

Dear
Abby
ADVICE
we're reunited, my feelings
toward his folks will have a
spillover effect on our marnage. What can be done,
MISERABLE
Abby? DAUGHTER-IN-LAW IN
NORFOLK, VA.
DEAR
MISERABLE
DAUGHTER-IN-LAW:
When your husband returns,
impress upon him the fact that
his parents never called or
invited you to join them in his
absence. It's a shame to have
to put him in the middle, but
these are his parents and if
they'll listen to anybody, it's
most likely him.
In the meantime, develop
other emotional resources with
other military families. When
a loved one goes on active
duty, it's not unusual that those
left behind are on an emotiona1 roller-coaster. Other wives
(and husbands) can appreciate
how you feel. Perhaps you can
support each other.

DEAR
ABBY:
My
boyfriend, "Harvey," and I
became engaged over the holidays. We are beginning to
plan our wedding. Harvey
was raised Jew ish. I was
raised Catholic. We envisioned a ceremony with both
a priest and a rabbi.
However, Harvey's parents
have informed us that they
will not attend if a priest is
present. One solution mi~ht
be to be married by a jusuce
of the peace, but my parents
want a "man of God" to preside.
Harvey and I are willing to
do whatever it takes to please
our parents, but we are having
a d1fficult time reaching a
compromise. Also, my parents are paying for the entire
wedding, so I'm not sure if
that gives them more "say" in
the matter or not. Please help.
- MARRIAGE BOUND
AND IN A BIND
DEAR
MARRIAGE
BOUND: Before you and
Harvey make any more plans,
it might be helpful for both
sets of parents to get together
socially. If there is no ... meeting of the minds," I urge you
and your fiance to get premarital counseling - preferably
from a nondenominational
counselor. The problems you

Harvey's parents are, just the
beginning. You and he must
come to a clear understanding
now about how your children
will be raised. If it's anything
other than Jewish, I see major
family problems and conflicts
ahead for you because of his
parents' stance.

MIDDLEPORT - The
bloodmobile scheduled for
the Senior Citizens Center in
Pomeroy Wednesday was
canceled by the American
Red Cross because of bad
road conditions and power
outages, and was rescheduled
for Saturday in Middleport.
The visit there will be held
from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the

Middleport Church of Christ,
437 Main St.
According to Cheryl
Gergely, spokesperson with
the Tri-State Division Blood
Services office in Huntington,
W.Va., area blood supplies are
being steadily depleted and
there is an urgent need.
She said that because of the
weather, several bloodmobile
visits have been canceled in
the collection area, resulting
in more than a thousand

potential units of blood not
being collected.
"For that rea5on, we are
urging all eligible donors to
give blood as soon as possible
because of the heavy dependency on it from area hospitals," she added.
All but two of the blood drives scheduled for Monday
were canceled due to inaccessibility of some blood drive

HOLZER
CARDIOVASCULAR
INSTITUTE

REEDSVILLE _ The past
few days have been chaotic
. for many people trying to
survive last weekend's winter storm, but for Reed's
Country Store in Reedsville ,
it has been busy.
People have practically
looted the shelves of milk,
bread and other necessities in
order to survive the great
storm of 2003.
According to store owner
Dormand Reed, the store has
sold more . than 600 gallons
of kerosene since the storm
began, and is currently sold
out.
There has also been a run
on
unleaded
gasoline,
because the power outage in
neighboring Coolville and
Hockingport has rendered
gas pumps in these areas useless.
While Reed's store still has
the premium grades of gasoline, the store ran out of
unleaded early this week.
Reed is optimistic that gas
trucks will be able to make it
through soon, but is realistic
enough to recognize that this
is out of his hands.
By Reed 's count, more
than 650 customers have
come 'through his store in the
past couple of days. At least
six clerks and Reed himself
have been working frantical ly to keep friends a!Jd neigh-

bors prepared for what he
described as one of the worst
storms in a decade.
Reed described. Monday as
a calamity. The week ahead
did not appear to offer any
relief for the dedicated workers and owner.
"It was not just one a day
race, but the whole weekend," Reed said.
More than 80 to 100 galIons of milk have been sold,
leaving empty shelves until a
fresh milk delivery arrives.
Reed, who knows how
important his store is to tfle
community during the storm,
took a chance.
Realizing the bread delivery truck might be late,
maybe even later in coming,
than he planned because of
the harsh weather and icy
roads, Reed drove to
Pomeroy to pick up some
bread and supplies for his
t
.
s ore.
Other local stores have
also been busy.
G &amp; M store provides
propane to many people in
the county. Carolyn Buckley
said the store has sold more
than 780 gallons of propane
gas in the last couple of days.
Ordinarily, the store holds
an average of 500 gallons of
· propane. but the weather has
nearly depleted supplies.
As of Wednesday, the store
was sold out but expects
fresh supplies in soon.

Diagnostic

Darwin and Pageville areas and
Bearwallow Ridge and Elk Run
Road have gone without water
due to intenupted electrical ser. VIce.
The lack of electricity has
resulted in low water suppli~ ·i!t
tanks · in those communities,
Poole said, especially in the
Bearwallow Ridge area. where
,
a small tank is in place.
"We've had some close calls,
but service in most areas has
been unintenuP,ted here in
Mei~s County, ' Poole said.
"We ve only had about 30 customers go without water, and
we're moving a generator from
tank to tank to see that the tanks
are filled and P.roviding as much
water as posstble."
Leading Creek, which serves
2, I00 customers, has borrowed
generators from water systems
in Little Hocking and in Dayton,
and has begun to restore service
at its Cheshire-area well field,
according to Manager Martin
Broderick.
A power outage at the field
interrupted water production
Sunday evening, and by
Thesday, water in all storage
tanks was depleted, Broderick
said.

$300,000 a week.
James Jackson, 64, of
Tallmadge, testified Wednesday
against Philip George Jr., 43, of
Akron.
George is on trial in Hamilton
County Common Pleas Court
on charges of gmnbling, cheat·
ing, telecommunications fraud,
operating a gambling house and
conspiracy. He could be sentenced to up to 39 years in
prison if convicted of all II
counts.

found $3.6 million in cash in a
freezer at his home, said he was
only holding the money until it
could be turned over to George.

Nuclear agency
says it wasn't
affected by politics
OAK HARBOR (AP) An investigation of federal
regulators' handling of the
Davis-Besse nuclear power
plant detennined that political pressure played no role in
· a decision to delay a shut·
down of the reactor.
The Nuclear Regulatory
Commission wanted to shut
down the plant on Dec. 31,
20Q I, fearing possible cracks
or leaks in the nozzles that
pass through the reactor lid.
But
plant
owner
FirstEnergy lobbied the
agency for an extension and
the NRC compromised, let·
ling the plant run until midFebruary 2002, when it went
off line for maintenance and
refueling.
In March, workers found a
hole in the reactor's lid from
years of leaking boric acid.
The plant has since been
closed for repairs.
Documents obtained by the
Union
of
Concerned
Scientists under the Freedom
of Information Act and
released to the news media
Wednesday discount political
pressure as being a factor in
the delaying the shutdown ..
The NRC's inspector general's office last year conducted interviews to see,
among other things, whether
Sen. George Vbinovich tried
to sway the NRC to let the
plant near Toledo keep oper·
ating.
Transcripts of interviews
show investigators asked
NRC, FirstEnergy and other
officials about Voinovich's
role~ The Ohio Republican
chairs a Senate subcommittee
that deals with nuclear-power
issues.
The inspector general's
office
concluded
that
Voinovich and his staff
"played no role. They were

not a factor in this thing at
all;" George Mulley Jr.,
deputy assistant inspector
general, said Wednesday.
Voinovich
sp"kesman
Scott Milburn said, ''There
were not any contact.s made
between Sen. Voinovich and
the NRC relative to this at all
- either to inquire as to the
status or to urge the NRC to
-hurry up or slow down."
The inspector general's
office last month said there~­
ulator allowed the delay m
part because of the financial
impact a shutdown would
have on FirstEnergy.
The NRC official with the
authority to order a shutdown
of the plant told investigators
he relied on FirstEnergy
Corp.'s word that it was safe
to continue operating the
reactor in early 2002.
Sam Collins, the NRC's
nuclear reactor regulation
director, said the company
assured him that it would
have shut down the plant
itself if the public safety were
endangered.
.
"I wouldn't put undue
emphasis on the shutdown
order because Davis-Besse
would have 3/Sshut that plant
down without the order,"
Collins was quoted as telling
an investigator.
Numerous NRC officials,
including outgoing Chairman
Richard Meserve, have said
the decision Collins made
was reasonable based only on
the information made available to him at the time.
Meserve, and other NRC
officials have repeatedly stat·
ed there is no way the agency
would have allowed DavisBesse to keep operating if
they had known the true
extent of the massive corrosion problem there.

Question: I have been
around someone who might
have tuberculosis and I am
concerned that I may have
caught it. I didn't think people
got that anymore. What are
the symptoms of tuberculosis? How would I know if I
had it?
Answer: Before answering
your question, I need to give
you a little background on
tuberculosis, often simply
called "TB." This disease,
also sometimes referred to as
"consumption," began to
decline in the United States
after the introduction of
antibiotics in the 1940's.
There was an increase in the
incidence of TB in the '80s,
but now the number of new
cases is again in decline.
TB is spread through the air
when a person with the disease sneezes, coughs, speaks
or sings. The organism that
causes TB, Mycobacterium
tuberculosis, can remain suspended in tiny droplets in the
air for several hours. A susceptible person can become
infected with TB if they
inhale these droplets. There
are no immediate symptoms
of inhaling these germs into
your lungs.
In a healthy person, the TB
infection does not take hold.
The immune system kills the
M. tuberculosis bacteria and
you will not become ill. You
may, however, end up with a
positive TB skin test. There is
a small risk that you may
develop TB at a later point in
your life. That's why anyone
who has had a positive skin
test should have re!lular TB
checkups from the1r physician, the local health depart·
ment or a state TB program.
Some people, unfortunately,
are not able to fight off the
initial exposure to the bacte·
qa. ,;pu~~,_ i$, pJlfl:icu!arly true .
Iff peop1e wliose 1111111Une sys-

culosis is also more common
in African Americans and
Hispanics.
While TB is primarily a disease of the lungs, it can also
affect the central nervous system, lymphatic system, bones
and joints. In some cases, it
can even be widely spread
throughout the body.Now,
finally, to answer your specific question. If you were to get
TB of the lungs, you would
probably have a cough that
lasted longer than three
weeks along with chest pain.
Your cough would most likely be productive, and&gt; the
phlegm you cough up would
be tinged with blood. You
might also experience fever,
chills, night sweats, fatigue
and weight Joss.
After con·
dueling a thorough history
and physical exam, a physician would order a Mantoux
tuberculin skin test, a chest
X-ray and, possibly, a special
sputum test to check for the
presence of M. tuberculosis.
There might be other tests as
well to positively confirm the
presence of pulmonary TB
disease.
Active tuberculosis is treated with a multiple antibiotic
regime, and the patient is
monitored regularly to be
sure the medicines are work·
ing. I would advise anyone
who has ever had TB - or
even just a positive TB skin
test - to watch closely for
symptoms like cough, fever
and weight loss.
You would need to do this
for the rest of your life to
quickly spot any recurrence
of the d1sease in its ~arly
stage when successful treatment is more likely. ·

NATIONAL VIEW

Tough questions will get to
root ,of Columbia disaster
• Los Angeles Times, "Ask the Hard Questions": The
space shuttle program faded from national consciousness as
the 1986 Challenger disaster faded from memory. The shuttles
became less explorers and more workhorses, hauling construction materials to the International Space Station.
On Feb. I, the Challenger leaped to memory again, but in a
world that could no longer assume that the trails of smoking
debris in the sky were merely the result of a tragic accident.
By Feb. 2, with terrori sm the most distant of possible explanations, the obvious decisions had been made; President Bush
formed a commission to investigate the accident and NASA
grounded the shuttle fleet.
Now come the hard calls - small, urgent ones at first, but
necessarily leading over time to a reexamination of the shuttle program and the International Space Station. Asking those
questions demonstrates no lack of faith in the space program.
Rather, it shows that the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration can apply the scientific method to itself and
learn fro m this latest tragedy.
NASA Administrator Sean o: Keefe should start by scrapping Discovery, the oldest of the three remaining shuttles. It
has seen 29 missions and numerous technical problems. To
bring the three astronauts now in the International Space
Station back to Earth. he may have to use the much smaller
Russian Soyuz capsules.
Bush should ensure that the Columbia commission is as
independent from NASA as was the group that investigated
Challenger.
NASA's annual budget today is about half what it was 35
years ago. in constant dollars. Hindsight will always generate
suspicion !hat the cost of inspection, either directly or in lost
time, was at issue. The agency's motto of recent years,
"Cheaper, Faster, Better," worked satisfactorily for unmanned
missions that could be written off when they went astray.
Keeping humans aloft, a matter of pride and prowess for the
United States, requires different thinking.
.
Bush, hi s eyes glistening and his voice cracking with emotion, said only hours after the accident, "Our journey in space
will go on." If the Columbia commission and NASA ask the
right questions, the answers, however painful, will focus and
strengthen America's commitment to the still endless possibilities of exploration and discovery. ·

Heres a checklist of questions about Iraq ,

As war with Iraq draws
closer, the public debate here
and abroad grows ever more
ferocious. To focus that
debate, I've created a list of
points, in question-andanswer form, suitable for
clipping and carrying in a
wallet. My hope is tha.t they
will promote clear thinking
on some very tangled issues.
I. Why is it essential ·to
attack Iraq now? What has
changed so suddenly?
In the last 12 years, for the
first time in all history, it has
become possible for determined small powers to obtain
weapons of mass destruction
of
inflicting
capable
appalling · and wholly unaccept.able damage on a superpower. The United States
rightly decided it could not
permit potentially hostile
small powers to acquire such
weapons. Unfortunately, the
first test case involved North
Korea in 1993 during the
Clinton administration, and
the country badly failed the
test.
The
administration
promised North Korea huge
amounts of food and energy
in return for a pledge to stop
developing nuclear weapons.
North Korea accepted the
food and fuel, and kept right

Daytona wreck
BY JENNA FRYER

Associated Press
ROCKINGHAM, N.C. His wheels were in the
infield grass, his car was a
crumpled heap of twisted
metal.
Daytona was a disaster for
Ryan Newman after a frightening wreck sent his car barrel-rolling through the grass.
It was an early exit from the
biggest race of the year and
sent him home in last place
in the points standings.
No biggie, he thought.
The real racing begins this
week in Rockingham.
"Daytona is just one race.
It doesn't make or break the
season," Newman said. "We
wrecked out. There's nothing
we can do about that except
pack ur and move on."
That s the standard refrain
from everyone in NASCAR
except Daytona 500 champion Michael Waltrip. The
winner is the only one who
leaves Daytona satisfied.
. North Carolina Speedway
opens to teams on Thursday,
not a minute too soon for drivers and crewmen eager 'to
get on with the season.
"Daytona is a big deal. It
starts our season and we all
put everything we have into
1t," said Jimmy Elledge,
crew chief for rookie Casey
Mears. "But at the end of the
day, the winner only get~ 185
pomts - same as the wmner
at Rockingham - so we
leave Daytona knowing how
you finished there doesn't
make or break your season."
In a 36-race schedule, the
Daytona 500 is almost separate from the rest of the year,
No · other race requires a
weeklong qualifying process
that includes two laps in time
trials and a 125-mile race.
On Iy three more races two
at
Talladega
Superspeedway and the July
event at Daytona - require
the use of smaller gas tanks
and a special restrictor plate
that reduces speeds.
Beginning with Sunday's
race at North Carolina
Speedway, followed by stops
in Las Vegas and Atlanta,
teams will have other issues

to worry about: tire management, downforce in the corners, and a strong engine for
the straightaways.
· "In the first four races, you
can pretty much figure out
where you're at. You're not
really going to know where
your car and team stacks up
until after Atlanta," car
owner Ray Evernham said.
At "downforce" tracks like
Rockingham, engines are
unrestricted and there's generally more side-by-side racing.
"I can't wait to get to
Rockingham where I can
pass and I don't need a
buddy to help me," Jeff
Green said.
Green started from the
pole in the Daytona 500, but
he finished 39th because of a
lack of drafting partners and
a blown tire .
Of course, a driver's finish
at Daytona means little for
the rest of the season.
Waltrip won the 200 I
Daytona 500, then fmished
24th in the overall season
standings. Tony Stewart finished last in the 2002
Daytona 500 and went on to
win the championship.
Daytona 500 winners have
gone on to take the series
title only four times since the
modern era started in 1972:
Jeff Gordon (1997), Richard

Petty ( 1974, '79) and Cale
Yarborough (1977).
"Last in the points is certainly not where we want to
be," Newman said. "But it
doesn't really matter. We've
got three races in a row here
to start climbing our way out
of the hole. Daytona is over,
the season starts this
Sunday."

RIO GRANDE - Rio
Grande needed a win
Wednesday in order to
remain in contention for
second . place in the
American
Mideast
Conference South Division.
The opponent for the
Rcdmen, Cedarville, had
already clinched the division title and the Yellow
Jackets showed how good
the division champs were.
Cedarville defeated Rio
Grande, 91-57, as nearly
everything went right for the
Yellow Jackets and the
opposite held true for the
Redmen.
With the loss, the Redmen
are now a game and a half
behind Shawnee State with
only one division game left,
Saturday
at
Ohio
Dominican.
Still, the Redmen have
already earned a playoff
spot.
"We knew going in that
we're in the playoffs, but
our destiny In terms of
where we're going to go and
who we're going to play is
in the air," said Rio Grande
head coach Earl Thomas. "A
win (Wednesday) would've
made sure we got a first
round game . Tuesday at
home. That would've taken
at least a little bit of pressure
off of us Saturday."
A win by Rio Grande
against Ohio Dominican
could still give the Redmen
a home playoff game
Tuesday, but a loss may
send the Redmen to perhaps
Rochester, N.Y,. to face
Roberts Wesleyan.
"We control our own destiny as we have all year,"
said Thomas.
Chris Ballenger led the
Red men (17 -13, 8-7 AMC
South) with 16 points, while
Reggie Williamson added
II points and Randar Luts
and Jerry Barlow each
scored 10.
Williamson and Barlow
also had six rebounds each . .
Six Cedarville players
scored in double digits, led
by Jason Weakley with 17
points, followed by Justin

Lower with 15, Dre.}V
Boston with · 14 and Greg
Guiler with 13.
Mugabe Thomas and Josh
Gast each scored I0 points
for the Jackets (24-7, 13-2),
who are No. II in the late'st
NAJA Division II poll and
have clinched a spot in the
NAJA National Tournament.
"I was really disappointed
with our effort and our concentration with a few guys
tonight," said Thomas.
"Reggie stepped · up and
played exceptionally well
for a freshman. Randar reaJly played hard. Chris
Ballenger, at times, played
pretty well. Jerry 's still trying to battle. He's just hurt.
There's just so much you
can get out of that tank. He's
banged up and there's not
much there.
"We just got some other
guys who haven 't stepped
up. They haven't quite figured out what college basketball is all about."
The Yellow Jackets led by
as many as 15 in the first
halt, but the Redmen managed to cut it to seven
points, 38-31, with the help
of a technical foul called
against Cedarville.
.
Cedarville still managed
to lead 42-31 at halftime.
. In the second half, baskets
by Seth Deerfield and
Ballenger again made it a
single-digit
game
as
Cedarville led 44-35 early in
half.
Cedarville slowly built a
commanding lead that eventually turned into a rout midway through the second half
as the Yellow Jackets were
able to outrun the Redmen.
"They beat us in every
phase of the game," said
Thomas. "They shot it well
and a lot of that is because
we didn't defend very well.
They outrebounded us and
we turned it over too much."
The Redmen will play
host to Notre Dame College
today before their trip to
Ohio Dominican Saturday.

Spring training
•

Barry Bo.nds had a I 0·
minute operatio.n Wedn~sday
o.n his left elbow to remove a
quarter-inch ball of scar tissue
and a suture from a previous
surgery.
San Francisco Giants trainer Stan Conte referred to. the
procedure, performed by local
team orthopedist Dr. David
Zeman , as a "bumpectomy."
"It was uneventful, exactly
as we planned," Conte said.
"We didn' t have to dig into
the (triceps) muscle or anything else. It was right belo.w
the skin . The key to the
surgery was we opened up the
skin and il was right there."
The five· time NL MVP
rested at home after the o.peration, and was expected to do
some running and other cardio. work Thursday, the first
day o.f full-squad worko.uts
for the defending NL champions.
The 38-year-o.ld slugger

probably won't swing a bat o.r
play in left field for three o.r
four days, but cou!d practic~ ·
~ooner. Conte sa1d Bo~ds
InCISIOn was about an mch
long and that Bonds had three
stitches. The surrounding area
was tender.
Bonds had local anesthesia,
meaning his elbow was
numbed. He also was under
some sedation. There ·was a
30-minute recovery period for
Bonds before he was allowed
to _go home, Conte said.
INDIANS
Ricky
Gutierrez arrived at spring
training Wednesday unsure of
his baseball future.
The Cleveland Indians' 32year-old infielder Is making
progress after career-threatennlg neck surgery Oct. 7, bill
doesn't know when he' ll play
again.
"I feel goo.d," Gutierrez
said. "I've been lifting
weights · and running, and I
haven' t had any pain. I
haven't do.ne any fiaseball
stuff, but there's no timetable

DEAR ABBY: I would like
to c omment on the letter from
"Jack of All Trades," who
feels he is at a dead end
because he has oilly a Q.E.D.
I work for a college. Many
of the students who come
through our doors have
Q.E .D .s. We test the students
to place them in classes for
their level of learning.
"Jack" can get a degree, and
he is never too old 10 stan.
Many older people are entering college for the frrst time
today. He shouldn't hesitate.
New classes begin all year
long. BEVERLY P.,

"Jack" sees this . column,
because many people reached
out to help him. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: I was in
"Jack's" shoes at one time. I
had little educalion, no family
and no direction.
It took determination to
change my situation. I was
married to an ·abusive man,
had quit high school in lOth
grade and had very little family support. I decided at 25
that it was time to take back
my life.
I went to night school to get

Representatives of the Ohio
Emergency
Management
Agency and the Ohio
Environmental
Protection
Agency visited Meigs County
Thursday, and two teams of
volunteers are .ellpected to
arrive later in the week to assist
with debris removal.
Robert Byer, Meigs County
Emergency Management director, said the county's three
emergency shelters have been
consolidated into one shelter at
the Veterans Memorial Hospital
building.
Many of those who sought
refuge at the shelters have gone
home, but 35 people remained
Thursday afternoon.
· Volunteers from Mount
Sterling will arrive in Meigs
County over the weekend to
assist residents with tree and
debris removal, Byer said.

I .
I

They will bring chain saws
and other tools necessary to
remove downed limbs and trees

from the properties of elderly
and disabled residents and . to
make structural repairs as needed.
lWo crews from the Civilian
Conservation Corps have been
instrumental in assisting township and county crews with
debris removal, Byer said.
The Zaleski-based crews
have been working . in
Middleport,
Rocksprings,
Shady. Cove, Yellowbush and
Chester communities, and are
now concentrating their work in
Salisbury Township, where
their help is needed most.
"I can t say enough about the
assistance the CCC has
offered," Byer said. "It's a
shame their worl&lt; will end on
June I because of state budget
cuts, because I don't know what
we would have done without
them.
"We'd definitely still be at a
level-three emergency status if
we didn't have access to their
time," he added.

History

Ashland's Paramount lbeater·presents Copt~cabtlna
er name was Lola ... " the
unforgettable opening lyric
of Barry
Manilow's
Grammy Award winning
hit song, "Copacabana," is
the inspiration for an exciting and passionate new musical.
Copacabana is a tale of love and romance
set at the heart of the swinging nightclub
scene of the 1940's. While creating the
world's next big hit, Stephen. an aspiring
songwriter, is carried back to an era when
. "music and passion were always the fashion" at the world. famous Copacabana
nightclub in New York City. In his dream,
Lola Lamar, a hopeful showgirl, is
launched on the path to stardom as a Copa
Girl with the help of Tony Starr, a bartender with dreams of his own.
Captivated by Lola's performance, the villainous Rico whisks her away to the
Tropicana nightclub in Havana. From this
exotic, distant new world, a tale of oldfashioned love, jealousy, and murder in
the entangled lives of Lola, Tony and
Rico unfolds amidst dazzling costumes,
spectacular sets and sensational choreography.
With music by Barry Manilow, lyrics
by Bruce Sussaman and Jack Feldman,
and book by Barry Manilow, Jack

Nothing Measures Up To BOB'S
when it comes to...
Gifts for all occasions, Home
Decorating. and Gardening Needs!

Feldman and Bruse Sussman, the New
York Daily News called Copacabana
"The honest show north of Havana ... ".
"Copacabana," the song, was written in
1978 for Barry Manilow's "Even Now"
album. Though it was loved by all who
heard it, the record company didn't know
quite what to do with it. Despite hearing
from disc jockeys that "Copacabana" was
producing some excitement, the record
company decided to release three other
songs as singles. The city of Miami then
weighed in. Florida disc jockeys, at the
request of their listeners, began to play
"Copacabana" straight off the album.
Within weeks, the record company was
forced to release it as a single. It soared
up the charts, and Barry Manilow entered
the Guinness Book of World Records for
having four songs in ·the top 40 simultaneously. The single quickly went gold,
and contributed to the album going triple
platinum. The song earned Mr. Manilow
his first Grammy Award.
Several years later, Dick Clark
approached Copacabana's writers, Barry
Manilow, Bruce Sussman and Jack
Feldman, about adapting the tune into a
musical film for television. It was the first
time such a project was attempted since
Rodgers &amp; Hammerstein's Cinderella.
Starring Annette O'Toole, Barry Manilow,

Estelle Getty and Joseph Bologna, the
movie garnered great ratmgs and wonderful reviews and won an Emmy Award.
Shortly thereafter, Caesar's Resorts in
Atlantic City contacted the creative team
about adapting the film for their show
room - the caveat being it had to be less
than 75 minutes long. Mr. Manilow, Mr.
Sussman· and Mr. Feldman proceeded to
invent a new form: Vegas review meets
Broadway show. It was wildly successful
and received glowing reviews.
This prompted British producers to
inquire abOut the possibility of expanding
the show to a fu.ll-length, two-act, West
End musical. Discariling much of the
Atlantic City production, the creators
added several more characters and subplots and doubled the size of the score.
This production enjoyed a 4-month, preLondon tour, ran two seasons on London's
West End. Copacabana had its American
premiere at the Pittsburgh· Civic Light
Opera in July 2000, followed by a thirty
week national tour,
The Paramount Arts Center. in Ashland,
Ky. is pleased to present Barry Manilow's
Copacabana on Saturday, February 22.
The show begins at 8 p.m. Balcony seating available. For more information, call

PoMEROY - Telephone service has been restored by Verizon
to more than half of the 5,000 customers in Southern Ohio who
have been without service.
Since Tuesday, service has been
restored by Venzon technicians to
2,700 customers in areas hard hit
by last weekend's snow and ·ice
Storm.
"We're making good progress,
but it's slow going," said Ron
Stanko, area customer operations
manager.
Stanko said the company will
have to replace hundreds of telephone poles and miles of cables.
To help bring customers on line
more qutcldy, Verizon is increasing the use of generators to pro-vide power to remote central
office units, it was reported.
Verizon now has 207 technicians working on repairs in outh- ·
em Ohio.

Snow removal in downtown Pomeroy got underway Thursday. A front-end loader was
used to scoop up snow along Second Street. It was dumped into trucks and hauled to
the Waterworks Park on East Main Street. Mayor John Blaettnar said that puts the
snow out of the way of bothering anyone until it melts away. The snow removal process
will continue for several days. (Charlene Hoeflich)
