and have been restocking ever
since," said Lee Powell, who
has been working at the family
owned store for many years.
Powell said busmess has

Tuesday and Wednesday.
Melissa Rizer, a sales associ·
ate, said the store decided to
close based on the reality of the
weather sitoation facing every·
one.
"We closed because of the
weather and how difficult it
was to get here," she said. "We
knew no,one would be out trying to buy a big diamond in the
middle of snowstonn. Most
people are more concerned
about kerosene and·groceries."
Ultimately, the stonn may

have helped business.
"We have been steady today
(Friday)," Rizer said. "A lot of
people might have gone stir
crazy over the last couple of
days which may have influenced our sales today."

The Ohio river has moved into the dip and closed the Pomeroy
parking lot near the levee and amphitheater. At 8 a.m. today
the. gauge stood at 41.8 feet, well below Pomeroy's flood
stage of 46 .5. A report from the Racine Locks and Dam indi·
cates the river will continue to rise at the rate of a foot an hour
until sometime this afternoon when it will then continue to rise
but at a much slower rate. (Charlene Hoeflich)

Midwest farmers
see talks as key to
opening markets
CINCINNATI (AP)
Midwest farmers see an eventual
free-trade
agreement
between Central America and
the United States as an oppoltllnity to open markets for their
com, wheat and soybeans.
The agreement being negotiated by U.S. and Central
'American representatives could
also boost shipments of fruits
and vegetables into this counuy
and stiffen competition · for
California and Aorida growers,
said John Skorburg, an economist with the American Farm
Bureau Federation.
. "You've got winners and
,losers, based on the commodities," Skorburg said Friday. "It's
very, very positive for the Great
Lakes states. It would be easy
for us to support it."
A week of talks between
:negotiators for the United
States, Costa Rica, El Salvador,
:Guatemala, Honduras and
Nicaragua is to take place in
this Ohio River city beginning
Monday. It is the second round
of talks that are to alternate
between Central America and
:me United States. Negotiators
~ope to present an agreement to
lheir governments by early
2004.
Chiquita Brands International
Inc. and regional chambers of
.commerce are hosting this
:week's private talks at a down~wn hotel.
: If a deal results, American
producers could see new markets for meat, bulk commodities and cotton, Skorburg said.
There could also be more
j:Jananas, cocoa and coffee
:shipped in from Central
America.
The talks occur more than a
decade after the North
American
Free
Trade
Agreement and as the Bush
administration has begun a
push to boost trade with Latin
American nations.
Sister Alice Gerdeman, a
Roman Catholic nun, is coordinating protesters to picket outside the hotel where the talks
are schedu.led, saying she is

Department of Aging says
threatened cuts don't make sense

Ohio weather

i Monofleld

PageA2

Transatlantic
Business
Dialogue, an organization of
U.S. and European government
and business executives who
met for private talks on international trade.
"Our experience of watching
these types of talks tells us that
big busmess seems to ·get input
to these people," Gerdeman
said. "But people who represent
workers or have environmental
concerns, they don't have a way
of even knowing what's hap-

pening."
The secrecy of the current
talks means that the working
people of Central America and
this country don't know what is
being negotiated in their behalf,
Gerdeman said.

The department said if
seniors don't get assistance
staying in their homes, the state
will end up paying more to put
them in nursing homes.
The agency, which runs
PASSPORT, will have to turn
away abqpt 150 people a month
if the $ J:s million IS CUt from
the program, said the agency's
spokesman, S(eve Proctor. The
pro~!faD~ currently helps 19,000
semors who qualify for
Medicaid, which provides

,
~--, health care
to
lowincome families.
If just 104

from PASSPORT and
decide to go

Taft
homes
at
five times
the cost, the $1.8 million in cuts
will be wiped out. If 1,000 people enter nursing homes for a
year, it would cost the state as
much as $17.2 million, the
n"""rtnv&gt;nt said.
·
-r.u.;-~~t a savings," Proctor
said. "For every dollar you
don't spend in PASSPORT, you
end up paying five - that doesn't make good economic sense
to me."
But Taft, who expects to
order the cuts by early March,
isn't thinking long term right

now.
'"The governor's constitutional duty is to balance the budget,
and the budget ends June 30,"
said Orest Holubec, a
spokesman for Taft. "We're not
talking about the long run. We
don't have time to look to the
next budget to balance this

one."
PASSPORT provides home
health aides who assist nursing
home-eligible seniors with
daily tasks such as bathing,
dressing, cooking, eating and
housekeeping.
Each PASSPORT client costs
$12,300 a year, with the state
paying about 40 percent of the
bill, or $4,920, and the federal
government paying the rest.
The state could lose $2.7 million in federal money if the $1.8
million is cut.
The people who can't get into
the program will end up on a
waiung list, Proctor said.
If family, friends or neighbors

can't help them, or if they are
too sick to keep waiting, they
can enter a nursing home,
which costs an average of
$55,500 a year.
The state pays 40 percent of
the bill, or $22,200 a year.
N ursin~ horne care is an entitlement, like education, and someone getting Medicaid cannot be
turned away.
Last year, PASSPORT
received a $7.8 million
increase.
''They haven't learned the
lesson," said Belle Likover,
head of the Council of Older
Persons, a coalition of more
than 40 Cuyahoga agencies that
serve seniors. '"The legislature
is burying its head in the sand."
The governor had no alternative, said Holubec, after both
the House and the Senate failed
to close the $720 million budget gap.
'Ths is where the money is,"
he said.

State poised to cut education funding
just weeks after end of 11-year lawsuit
COLUMBUS (AP)- Gov.
Bob Taft's threatened cuts to
education are raising concerns
about a return to legal battles
over school funding.
The Ohio Supreme Court
ended II years of litigation in
December while ruling for a
third time that the way Ohio
pays for education is unconstitutional.
In addition to education
being a priority, the prospect
of ending back up in court is
"one reason we would prefer
not to have to cut schools,"
Taft said.
· After lawmakers rejected
his call for a tax increase to
help close a $720 million
deficit, Taft said in January he
will be forced to cut $136
million in state spending on
schools this spring.
That cut would represent
about 2 percent of the $6.2
billion Ohio provided its 613
school districts this year. Put
another way, it's about the
size of Akron city schools'
annual state funding.
"We have an unconstitutional system whether we
make cuts or not," said John
Brandt, executive director of
the Ohio School Boards
Association. "Cuttin~ funds
would make it worse. ' :
The Supreme Court has
said consistently that the state
can't fund schools by fi~ng
out how much money 1t has,
then giving districts whatever
is left over.
That's the situation that
Taft finds himself in as he
tries to balance the budget, as
required by the constitution.
Although
lawmakers'
refusal to raise taxes ttiggered
Taft's decision, legislators
also are tJying to stop him

from cutting basic aid to have taken the budget situa- money it does not have,"
Justice Paul Pfeifer wrote in
schools. Instead, they want tion into consideration.
"We realize that the Generai the court's 4-3 December

In "What a Great Idea!

Stephen M. Tomecek profiles 45 world-shakmg,

from
ancient times (pre-3,500
B.C.) to today.
For

invention,
Tomecek describes a problem, how the solution came
about and its effect then

The evidence on global warming
T~e

Northeastern United
States was buried this week
in the biggest snowstorm in
seven years. The blizzard
dumped more than two feet
of powder in some places,
which ranked among the
highest accumulations in the
region since meteorologists
began keeping track in the
early 1890s.
·
Indeed, the
National
Weather Service said record
snowfalls were set for Boston
at 27.5 inches and Baltimore
at 27 inches. New York's
Central Park recorded 19.5
inches of snow - the city's
fourth highest accumulation
in
history
and
Washington, D.C., 24 inches.
The Blizzard of 2003 follows the Great April Fool's
Day Storm of 1997, which
whited out the Eastern
Seaboard from Maine to
Maryland, and the infamous
Blizzard of 1996, which left
two to three feet of snow
over the Northeast.
Taken together, they suggest a climatic trend. Were
these politically different
times, one could imagine
newspaper and magazine
articles speculating that these
recent and historic snowstorms are a harbinger of
global cooling, such as the
Newsweek article, entitled
"The Cooling World," that
appeared in its April 28,
1975, issue.
"There are ominous signs
that the Earth's weather patterns have begun to change
dramatically," it warned. It
cited several scientific studies that suggested a "little ice

age" was under way.
"The evidence in suppon
of these predictions has now
begun to accumulate so massively that meteorologists are
hard pressed to keep up with
it," the article assured.
Which brings us to the
meeting this past week of the
American Association for the
Advancement of Science.
The highlight of the annual
confab -- or, at least, the most
newsworthy occurrence -·
was a prediction by one ·of
the natiOn's leading climate
scientists that average world
temperatures will rise by as
much as 8 degrees Fahrenheit
by the end of this century.
Warren Washington, chief
of the Climate Change
Research Group at the
National
Center
for
Atmospheric Research in
Boulder, Colo., said his very
long-range climate forecast
was based on computer mod·
els (which, it should be
noted, have proven notoriously unreliable in the past).
The climate scientist did
not explain how the Blizzard
of 2003, the Great April
Fool's Day Storm of 1997
and the Blizzard of 1996 fit
into the global warming paradigm. But it's just as well.

Global climate always subject to change
The central argument of
global warming alarmists is
that, in lhe past 40 years of
human ecoilomic activities
(notably the burning of fossil
fuels such as oil and coal)
have added huge new quantities of carbon dioxide to the
earth 's atmosphere, resulting
in a small-but-perceptible
increase in its temperature.
This increase, they warn, is
bound to have big and large!~ negative consequences for
hfe in general, and human
life in particular, over the
next few decades. Among
these, depending on the computer model adopted and the
amount of warmin~ it forecasts, are everythmg from
warmer winters and hotter
summers to the melting of
the polar icecaps and a rise in
mean sea level that will inundate coastal cities everywhere.
Now, nobody doubts that
human activity has to some
extent increased the amount
of carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere, and will continue to do so. The argument is
over the extent. Natural causes are, and will continue to
be, responsible for the vast
majority of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. But
the alarmists insist that the
human contribution will be
substantial, and must be cut

future generations are to be
spared untold suffering.
To the lay man, this arg ument sounds all too plausible. We are accustomed to
moderate fluctuations in
global temperature, but if any
year turns out to be, on average, unusually hot or unusually cold, or has an unusual
number of hurricanes or tornadoes. many people are easily convinced that something
rare and dangerous is going
on and must be stoppep if
possible.
·\
What the average , person
doesn't realize is how
sharply global temperatures
have varied even within historical times, let alone over
longer periods. In the 1600s,
for example, Europe experi·
enced what was called " the
Little Ice Age." The canals of
Venice froze over solid . Six
hundred years earlier. on the
other hand, Vikings pressing
westward across the North

Atlantic came upon a huge
island so verdant they called
it "Greenland." There were
no newspapers around in
those days to scare the public
with predictions of "global
warming" or "global cooling," however, let alone any
substantial human contributions to the carbon dioxide in
the
atmosphere.
Temperatures returned, in
due course, to what we like to
think of as normal.
Over longer periods, the
world's climatic fluctuations
have been downright hairraising. It seems likely that
we are currently in a warm
spell between two ice ages.

so, and if the great glaciers
reappear over the northern
half of the globe, the sight of
a mile-high wall of ice heading south toward Chicago
will certainly be enough to

M ayur
Richard
Daley's mind that day.
Meanwhile ,
however,
there is evidence that the relatively minuscule effects of
"global warmin~ ," whatever
they are, are Simpl y being
overwhelmed by larger phenomena that have been
going on for million s of
years. In .an article in

Science, professor John
Stone of the University of
Washington . in Seattle
reports that the West
Antarctic Ice Sheet appears
to have been retreating
steadily, at a rate of about 2
inches per year, for the past
10,000 years, without any

whatever
fro m
mankind. If the sheet melts
entirely, Stone says, global
sea level could rise by as
much as 16 feet, inundating
many islands and coastal
areas. The point is that global temperature fluctuations
are an old, old story, in
whic h relatively brief cycles

Governors meet with Bush to focus Eastern board
on Medicaid, homeland security
approves staff

WASHINGTON (AP) Hoping to win federal assistance for states' ailing
finances, the nation's governors head to the White House
for a meeting with President
Bush and top administration
officials to discuss Medicaid
and homeland security.
Bush was to sit down
Monday with the states' top
elected officials, who gathered in Washington over the
weekend for four days of
meetings on how they can
work with the federal government to fix some of their
most troubling problems.
Welcoming the governors
and their spouses to a formal
dinner Sunday night, Bush
recalled the good advice his
counterparts gave him when
he was governor of Texas. He
listed the responsibilities he
and the governors shared homeland security, job creation, affordable health care.
"We 'II meet them together,"
he said.
States are in their third year
of shrinking revenues and
budget cuts, with som~ $30
billion of additional cuts
overall needed in the next
few months. Next year looks
even worse, with ~overnors
predicting an $82 btllio. n gap
between spending demands
and their weak tax revenue.
Plans for the meeting with
Bush caused partisan friction
among the governors, as

Democrats
complained
the administra tion
was setting
limits on
the usually
f r e e
exchange
of ideas.
They said
Buah
the White
H o u s e
planned to allow just two
questions that had to be
approved before the gathering.
White House officials
promised a wide-ranging
exchange.
Republican
Dirk
Kempthorne of Idaho, vice
chairman of the National
Governors Association, said
he was confident the meeting
would be open and constructive. He said he was asked to
give the administration his
question beforehand "so no
one's caught flatfooted."
Kempthorne said the constraints were more about the
demands on Bush's time than
anything else, and that he
expected the limits would be
put aside. "He's going to
want to talk with the governors. That's his style," he
said.
Republican Bill Owens of
Colorado complained that
Democrats were politicizing
the annual sit-down. "When

Republicans
met
with
President Clinton, we didn't
whine over what points of
access we had," said Owens,
who heads the Republican
Governors Association. "We
treated the president with
respect."
On Sunday, a proposal to
ask Washington for "tmmediate federal fiscal relief' to
help states cover their budget
shortfalls and spur their
economies was set aside on a
party-line
vote,
with
Republicans opposed to the
request and Democrats in
favor.
"You can't just keep printing money," said Republican
Jeb Bush of Florida, the president's brother. "That policy
position .. . was the position
of big government."
Over the next two days,
governors will consider other
proposals on:
-Homeland
security,
where they hope to receive
more of the $3.5 billion
promised in the current year,
as well as an additional mfusion of cash in the coming
year.
-Medicaid, the $240 billion state-federal program
that provides health care to
the poor. They're struggling
to find a balance between
seeking flexibility to reshape
the program and asking for
more money to shore up the
state burden. Governors say

Medicaid increases are driving much of their budget
problems.
-".ducation, where governors are considering a
request to ask Congress to
increase financial support to
state and local education
agencies to cover increased
costs incurred by Bush's No
Child Left Behind education
program.
Later Monday, governors
were to hold a detailed discussion on Medicaid with
Health and Human Services
Secretary
Tommy
Thompson.
The annual governors
meeting traditionally strives
to reach a consensus and present a unified front from the
states, but this year the financial pressures are adding to
the difficulties.
"We need a carefully tailored jobs incentive package
now, not later,'
said
Democrat Gray Davis of
California, questioning the .
value of the Bush budget proposal.
Bipartisan agreement, several governors said, would be
more difficult to find this
time around.
"Usually, there's a couple
things we can all get behind,"
said
Republican
John
Rowland of Connecticut. "I
don't think so this time. Not

Rl's attorney general says investigators want to
quiz owne~ of nightclub that burned; toll at 97
WEST WARWICK, R.I.
(AP) - A day after family
members visited the charred
site of a deadly nightclub fJre,
the state attorney general said
the club's owners have not
answered questions from
investigators about the blaze
that killed at least 97.
State Attorney General
Patrick Lynch said Monday
that Jeffrey Derderian has not
answered questions since
Thursday mght when The
Station, which he owns with
his brother, burned to the
ground. He said Michael
Derderian has never answered
questions.
"There are questions I
believe they could assist us
with if they answered,'' he said
on CBS' '"The Early Show."
Lynch said the heavy metal
group Great White, which
returned to Los Angeles, has
been cooperative. The band's
pyrotechnics display was
believed to be the cause of the
fire.

District is holding a public
meeting at 6:30 p.m. Thursday
at the Rutland Fire Department

An attorney for the band,
Ed McPherson, said Monday
that guitarist Ty Longley,
missing since the blaze, had
died in the fJre. ·
"The band's a mess,"
McPherson said on ABC's
"Good Morning America."
Great White was just getling into its flfSt song at The
Station late Thursday when
SJ?arks from their _PYrotech. mcs apparentlY. igmted .foam
tiles in the ceilin.IJ. Fire offidais said the enure building
was engulfed in three minutes.
Jeffrey
Derderian,
a
Providence television reporter
who had owned the cl,ub with
his brother since 2000, spoke
publicly Saturday, breaking
down m tears as he talked
about the victims. He said the
band's use of pyrotechnics
"was a total shock to me." But
he didn't take any questions.
The band insisted it had
permission from The Station's
owners to set off pyrotech-

mcs.
On Sunday, under gray
skies and rain, family member
gathered at the site where they
prayed and cried. They left
behind flowers, photographs,
poems and stuffed animals.
'"These families are going
through such a tragedy, such
an emotional odyssey right
now, and their hearts are broken, and they still don't know
in many cases whether their
loved one has been positively
ID'd," Gov. Don Carcieri
said.
It was Carcieri who
announced Sunday that yet
another body had been found
in the rubble, bringing the
death toll to 97.
"We've gone over the site
and over the site and hopefully there are not many more,''
Carcieri said.·
Only 42 of the victims had
been Identified as of Sunday.
Eighty survivors of the fire
remamed
hospitalized
Sunday, about two dozen of

them in critical condition . .
After the families mourned
privately, about 150 people
crowded into a small chapel
for a memorial service filled
with song and prayer. .
"We carne to pray for the
· families and the victims,''
said Teresa McQuiggan, 76,
of East Providence, who like
many others at the service
didn't know any of the victims. "And last but not least,
we're here to pray for the
dead."
Another memorial was
planed for Monday night.
Meanwhile, investigators
continued to pore over the
rubble and interview witnesses and victims.
The governor said Sunday
a moratorium on pyrotechnic displays had been issued
for clubs m the state accommodating 50 to 300 people,
and that 200 deputy fire
marshals would fan out to
inspect the sites beginning
today.

Why was Jesica Santillan offered
the wrong organs in the first place?
WASHINGTON (AP) When a heart and matching
lungs were donated in Boston
two weeks ago, a comi?uter
generated a list of patients
medically compatible and
awaiting transplants.
But the recipient of those
organs - 17-year-old Jesica
Santillan - failed to make the
list because, as tragically evident later, her blood type did
not match.
How did it happen?
Her family carne to the
United States from Mexico so
she could get a transplant, and
she had waited for three years
when the organs from Boston ·
became available on Feb. 6.
They came from someone
with blood type A. Jesica had
type 0. Her body rejected the
organs, she became critically
ill and, despite receiving a second set of organs Thursday,
died Saturday.
Officials at Duke University

Medical Center in North
Carolina have said they failed
to ask about the blood type
and have taken responsibility
for the enur.
But why were the first set of
organs even offered by transplant coordinators?
Experts in the organ matchin~ system say a mistake like
this might occur if a transplant
coordinator is ·having trouble
finding a patient who will take
the organs.
Despite the acute &amp;hortage,
some donated organs are darnaged, so doctors are reluctant
to take them. If they come
from a child, as may have
been the case here, the organs
might be too small for most
people on the waiting list
If a transplant coordinator is
having trouble fmding a match
from the official list of waiting
patients, the coordinator might
start contacting doctors to see
if they have a patient who can

use the organs.
It is not clear what happened
in Jesica's case, nor are details
known about the donor.
Could someone on the list
have benefited from the
organs'? Were they offered to
everyone on the list before
Jesica got them? Whatever the
rationale, the informal matching used in this instance worries some.
''Tile way we engender trust
is by having a system that's
accountable," said Dr. John
Uolman, a kidney transplant
surgeon at the University of
Utah. He is chairman of the
organ procurement committee
for the United Network of
Organ Sharing.
The computerized matchi "3
system was created "because
people were suspected of
gaming the system," he said.
"It's there to create a sense of
fairness."

"My argument is that we
are the exceptional," he
said. "We are the only race
packed into ships like sardines, sold into slavery and
still able to maintain our
dignity, and able to look our
oppressors in the face and
not hate them, even though
we are hated. We are the
exceptional."
Muhammad,
a
Tuscaloosa, Ala., native ,
said the African American
experience can be summed
up in three words : Slavery,
segregation and marginalization, or the belittling of a
people and their culture.
It is through the struggle
and accomplishments of
. outstanding
African
Americans - who are being
celebrated this month on
State
and
Mountain
National Public Radio that Muhammad said proves
his point.
"But being exceptional
won't mean anything until
we understand how exceptional we are,'' Muhammad
said. "Years ago, one would
have been able to list the
outstanding musicians and
artists we had. That would
be impossible today because
there are so many of us.

"There are too many
exceptional
black
Americans to cram into 28
days," he added. "There are
more than 28 outstanding
black Americans."
Muhammad said he found
remarkable Gallia County's
continuous celebration of
the
Emancipation
Proclamation, known in
other parts of the country as
Juneteenth.
"There are blacks I know
in Texas who don 't know
what it is," he said. "Yet you
celebrate it. Gallia County is
the exception."
The two-day black historY.
celebration at Paint Creek
that began Friday was highlighted by music, reflection
and prayer, as well as recognition of the achievements
in the community.
Three individuals were

Jarrett beats
Busch in battle
at Rockingham

POMEROY Veterans
Service Commission, 9 a.m. at
the office, tt7 Memorial Drive,
Pomeroy.

ROCKINGHAM,
N.C.
(AP)- Dale Jarrett outfoxed
Kurt Busch during the final
laps Sunday and won the
Subway 400 at North
Carolina Speedway.
Busch had the strongest car
late 111 the race, leading 150
laps with few challenges
from the rest of the field after
he got up front.
But Jarrett came on strong
at the end, passing Busch 10
laps from the finish by first
pinning him against the wall,
then using lapped traffic to
box him in and slide on past.
Busch regained the · lead
with five laps to go, passing
him after a stirring side-byside dueL
Jarrett, conserving his tires
while Busch burned rubber
trying to keep the lead, went
by him one more time and led
the final three laps for his
31st career victory.
This was Jarrett's second
win at Rockingham and the
first Winston Cup victory for
new crew chief Brad Parrott.
Busch finished second for
the second straight week and
emerged as the early favorite
for the Winston Cup championship. He takes a 31-point
lead over Jarrett in the standings into next week's race in
Las Vegas, his hometown.
Matt Kenseth was third to
give Roush Racing second
and third place finishes and a
Ford sweep of the top three
spots.

Southern,wins sectional
BY ScoTT WOLFE
Sports correspondent
McARTHUR - Behind a tremendous defensive stand, the Southern
Tornadoes whirled up their first sectional championship in a couple years
by defeating the Beaver-Eastern
Eagles 59-38 Sunday afternoon in the
boys basketball Division IV Sectional
finals at Vinton County High School.
Through three periods, Southern
held Beaver-Eastern to just 14 points,
then allowed the tempo to pick up to,
accomodate the final score.
Southern now advances to the
District Tournament on Thursday,
where they play Manchester in the
District semi-finals at 8 p.m at Ohio
University's Convocation Center. That
game follows the Whiteoak-South
Webster game at 6:15.
Southern, now 14-5, was led by
sophomore Craig Randolph who
tossed in 21 points including 7-9 at the
line for a game-high 21 points. Seniors
Jordan Hill and Justin Connolly each
had eleven points apiece, while Hill
added three assists to an exciting floor
game and Connolly brought home a

double-double with 14 rebounds on his
resume. Junior Josh Smith came off
the bench to add five points with a
good effort, Curtis Neigler, Wes
Burrows, and Jamie Coleman each had
three, and Jake Nease two.
Beaver-Eastern of former Southern
star Jeff Caldwell was led by Jarrod
Nickels with ten, Adam Mathews had
nine, Jacob Dixon eight, Adam
Higginbotham
four,
Dustin
Montgomery three, Jason Lawhorn
three and Clayton King one.
Althou$h the tempo was not slow,
the score mdicated a slow-down game
in the frrst period. Rather both teams
shot 15 shots apiece, but found the rollins at a premium. Holding steady at 42, Jordan Hill added a twisting drive to
give Southern a 6-2 edge after round
one.
Coach Jonathan Rees said, "Part of

it was not having played since
February 7th. but we were just rusty

weather breaks and we can once again
establish some momentum. We want to
take care of business in the tournament
first, then see what we can do towards
winning the league."

the defensive tempo. The SHS defense
coupled with cold shooting from
Beaver-Eastern resulted in a lowly
halftime score. Southernfs offense
wasn't much warmer as they hit just
eight tield goals by the half.
Justin Connolly started off the second frame with a key jumper, then
Craig Randolph hit a three for an 11-4
SHS tally. Two Nickells ~oals made it
11-8 before Randolph nailed a pair of
free throws and Jordan Hill started to

some things we want to
accomplish. Hopefully, we
can get back to normal after
the lay-off we've had."
Eastern sputtered early,
but the mis-fire turned quickly to fine-tuning with Coach
Howie Caldwell turning the
wrenches on the Eagle racing
machine. Eastern put 23
points on the board with a
balanced
effort
from
Simpson (8), Kimes (4).
Cozart (5), Dill (4), and
Grubb (2).
Every cog
seemed to tum on Eastern's
wheel of fortune, while the
defense locked down the
Flyer offense. The first period ended with Eastern leading 23-10.
Eastern continued its dominance in the second round,
although St. Joe's Chris
Laber broke loose for a nine
point quarter. Eastern's Cody
Dill was well on his way to a
12 point game. but his
defense and seven blocks
came to light in the early
going. Robert Cross also had.

twisting drives that resulted
in scores.
The result was a 20-12
lead for the Tornadoes at the
half.
Slowly
but
surely,
Southern started to establish
some momentum in the second half. The big key again,
however, was defense. SHS
limited Beaver to just two
third quarter points.
Connolly sparked the SHS
attack in the third round with
great rebounding and a couple quick jumpers out of the
gate . He also was 4-4 at the
line, drawing attention from
the Beaver-Eastern defense
who collapsed on Connolly
and opened up a seam for
seven Randolph points, a
surge of scoring that included

two points in the frame and a
couple blocks. Nathan Grubb
and Jason Kimes each added
five points in the fray as
Eastern raced to a 40-23 halftime lead.
Eastern finished off what
it started with a 23-14 offset
in the third frame. Cross,
Dill, Buckley, and Simpson
were the big guns in the mix. .
Eastern's success depended
on balanced scoring right
across the board, a side bar
that saw eleven Eagles hit the
scoring column. After three
rounds, Eastern led 63-37,

DEAR ABBY: Recently the
six ladies in my garden club
got together to celebrate the
birthday of one of the "girls."
We are all in our 50s and 60s
and have been friends for
years. They all know I have
an allergy to nuts, and eating
e.ven one can cause a violent
reaction. Therefore, I always
make a point of asking if nuts
are in any of the dishes served
at our get-togethers.
One of the ladies, "Mary,"
served a beautiful casserole.
When I asked her if it contained any nuts, she said, "Of
course not- I know you're
allergic." Just before we sat
down to eat, one of the other
women pulled me aside and
warned me not to eat any of
Mary's casserole because it
did, indeed, have nuts.
When I confronted Mary
and asked if it was true, she
laughed and replied, 'This socalled allergy is all in your
head, and I was going to do
you a favor by proving it to
you today."
Abby, I have seen several
doctors about my allergy. It is
not "in my head." Nuts can
cause my blood pressure to
skyrocket and cause terrible
headaches and vomiting. How
should I handle my friendship
with Mary after this incident~

The Red Cross arrived in
Meil!s County Friday to .
provtde relief to volunteers
manning the shelter at the
Veterans Memorial Hospital
building, and to provide
standby assistance in the
event of extensive flooding.
The shelter at the hospital
building; and two others,
were opened by the Meigs
Emergency
Management
Agency on Feb. 16 to provide emergency shelter and
food for those left without
electricity, heat and other
necessities. It closed over
the weekend as electricity
was restored to most Meigs
County homes.
From her assignment in
Gallipolis Monday, Eileen
Guy of the American Red
Cross said the Red Cross is
now concentrating its relief
efforts there, but said those
who need assistance with
disaster-related problems
can call the Red Cross at

village workers ·and volunteers who joined together to
clean village streets and
check on residents in trouble
during last week\ snow and
1ce stonn .
At Monday's regular meeting of Middlepon Village

the tribulations experienced
by village government during the storm and the fourday siege without electricity

lannarelli said Thomas
Rental Center donated the
use of a backup generator for
village use, and said~ volunteer firefighter traveled to
Charleston, W.Va., in order
to secure additional renlal

could be met at village hall
and other locations necessary

Department, was cruising
nearby Mulberry Avenue
when he noticed three men
walking down the section
of the street known as hospital hill. He called
Patrolman Nate Lather for
assistance.
As the two law officers
started to approach the
three men, they were listening to ,the scanner,
wh1ch told of the recent

discovery of the m1ssmg
car by the sheriff's department .
·
Chief
Mark
Police
Proffitt
described
an
immediate "chain reaction
of events" which led to the
arrests.
Hickman and Lather
quickly apprehended the
three men.
Footprints in the snow
appeared to be the smokinjl
gun as the officers fol•
lowed the trail back to
where the car had been.
Donnie Edwards was
released. After questioning
the men, Proffitt decided
that Edwards knew nothing
about the missing car
because the two suspects
had picked him up at his
home earlier in the evening
after the incident had taken
place.
Proffitt said no charges
would be filed against
Edwards.
Murphy and Wilson were
placed in the Middleport
Jail. Before arraignment
Monday at the Meigs
County Court, Murphy and
Wilson were questioned
again by Proffitt.
The two men confessed
to Proffitt and Sgt. Joe
Kirby Jr.
The incident remains
under investigation and
other charges may follow. ·
In addition to grand theft
auto, there were items
reported missing from the
car, which included a carton of cigarettes. Grand
theft auto is fourth-degree
felony which carries up to
a maximum of 18 months
in prison.
Proffitt was pleased with
the cooperation between
law enforcement agencies.
"The fast response time
from 1he sheriff's department and the police department led to the apprehension of the suspects
involved in this incident,"
he said.

Council eyes purchase
of back-up generator
BY J. MILES lAYTON

Staff writer
POMEROY - Pomeroy
Village Council discussed the
possibility of purchasing an
emergency back-up generator
for the police department during Monday's meeting.
Council member Larry
Wehrung stressed the importance of providing a generator
for the police department in
case of emergencies.
During the winter stonn, the
police department lost power
Feb. 16 to 19. Fortunately, the
Meigs County Emergency
Management Agency was able
to provide an emergency generator to keep the police
department from shutting
down.
Without electricity, there
would be no heat, no lights and
no power to opernte the gasoline pumps to fuel city vehicles

with. Radio communications
between the police dispaiCher
and officers would also be at
risk.
The generator allowed the
office lo remain operational,
but it had to function without
the use of its main compulier
that tracks weather ·advisories
and coordinates statewide data
necessary for law enforcement.
Despite freezing temperatures outside, portable s~
heaters kept the office wann at
a balmy 60 degrees. Electricity
from the generator kept the gas
pump functional so that not
only the police cruisers would
have fuel. but the snow plow~
as well. The power was
restored Feb. 20.
Mayor John Blaettnar said
the village might consider purchasing two generators. One
would be 11sed for the police

Hi' My name is "Musical Misha". I'm the
lead singe r of my band. I play most of the
instruments. One of our songs is A Walk In The
Wind. My speech for children would be don ' l
do drugs and make good decisions also. I say
make good dec isions because if you ever come
to a friends house and they have a pack of cigarettes and their parents didn 't know about it, you
should say no. After th at you should tell their
parents and if they don' t like you anymore, say
well I'm no t made to do drugs, and never will be
made to .do them, ei ther.
