POMEROY
Shhhhh! Be
quiet so Wanda Ashley, a clerk at
the Pomeroy Library, can help
find things needed by patrons
searching ior the perfect summer
book to read on the shores of
Tripoli.
Ashley started working at the
library almost five years ago
stacking books, helping patrons
and running quick genealogy
checks. Ashley loves working at
the library.
"I love to work with the public
and meet new people," she said.
"1 only tell people to be quiet if I
have to."
Recently, the library expanded
in size with nearly double the
floor space. There are additional
reading areas, book stacks, a
computer lab, more office space.
and large windows offer a nice
view of the Ohio River.
·
"f like the additions to the
library," she said. "It is more
spread out and offers more things
for everyone."
Originally from Portsmouth,
Ashley has lived in Meigs County
for 24 years.

POMEROY - Obesity
and diabetes are among the
top public health 'problems
in Meigs County today,
to
Norma
according
Torres, Meigs County
Health Commissioner.
She said that the goal of
this week's observance of
National Public Health
Week is to educate adults
and children about the
health risks associated
with the fast-g~owing epi demic and to present communities and individuals
with ways to "s hape up
their future.''
Torre s said that currently
more than 21 percent of
Ohioans are considered to
be obese as determined by
body mass indexing, an
increase of seven percent
since 1991. Also during
that time period she said
the incidence of diabetes
h·as increased to an alarming rate.
"Now that spring is here
with its nice wellther, it is
a great opportunity for
Meigs
Co unti ans

of
obesity
here, Laura Horsley , the
agency's cardiovascular
coordinator, ha s recommended 30 minutes of
moderate phy sical activity
mo st day s of the week to
maintain good health, and
60 minutes of moderate
physical
activity
for
weight loss .
She has several programs
underway . to ' assist residents as they work toward
we.ight
reduction and
improved health .
Last month she began a
10-week program designed
for -healthy living called
''Active for Life" at
Southern High School. The
goal of
that program,
according to Horsely. is to
encourage through an
organized program a moderate active lifestyle. That,
she said, will help in
reducing
the
255,000
deaths in the country
which are attributed each
year to a lack of physical
activity.

National Infant
Immunization
Awareness
Week
BY BRIAN

J.

REED

Staff writer
POMEROY Public
health officials hope the
observance · of National
Infant
Immunization
Awarene ss Week will help
boost Meig s County's low
infant immunization rate s.
The . childhood immunization program at the
Meigs County Health
Department reports a 54
percent immunization rate
for infants from birth to
24 months - far below
other counties in the state
and the local goal of 90
percent .
Meigs
County
Commissioners
have
issued a proclamation
declaring April 13-19 as
Infant · Immuni zation
Awareness Week in the
coUJity, in an effort to pro. mote the health depart ment's ongoing immunization efforts.
The deparrment will
hold a free childhood
immunization clinic from
9 to 1.1 a.m. and I to' 3
p.m. Tuesday, and will

offer a new tricycle as .an
incentive for parent s to
bring their children into
the clinic for their shots.
"ImmunizatioQ rate s in
rural Ohio don ' t look too
bad , but here in Mei gs
County, we're in bad
shape,"
said
Sherry
Weese ,
immunization
nurse for the health
department. "The infant
immunization rate is rela tively high her~ . but we
tend to lose them at 12 to
16 months , and those are
the most importiJ.nt months
in a. child's life when it
comes to immunization s."
"The lowest rates in
Meigs -county appear to
be in the outlying commur.
nitie s,
such
as
Harrisonville
and
Reed sv ille . and we hope
that this week's observance will encourage parents to start immunizing
their chil~ren at birth; and
continue the immunization
program th'rough child hood, so the child doesn't
have to undergo a · lot of
shots at one time before he
enters school."
The immunization pro gram is free of charge, but
the department acce pt s
donations for the service.

'

Savannah Smith, 3, was all smiles as she rolled up her sleeve for her latest round of immunizations, administered by Melgs'County Health Department Nurse Nancy Broderick. The tricycle shown in the photograph is an incentive door prize in observance of National Infant
"immunization Awareness Week. (Brian J. Reed)

candy and money were hid on the church lawn and inside
the church (in the event of rain) for the children to find.

Bookstore chain to publish 'classics'
BY HILLEL lTALIE

Associated Press
NEW YORK~ In a time of
slow sales and fears of cutbacks in the book industry, at
least one "publisher" keeps
getting bigger: Barnes &amp;
Noble.
The
superstore
chain
announced Monday it was
upgrading and expanding its
line of "classic books" such as
"Moby-Dick" and "The
Adventure s of Huckleberry
Finn." Editions from the new
imprint, Barnes &amp; Noble
Classics, will start coming out
in May, with 100 different
titles expected by June 2004.
"These books are consistent
with our plan to publish books
of high editorial quality and
exceptional value, books that
sell year after year," Barnes &amp;
Noble CEO Steve Riggio said
in a statement.
Barnes &amp; Noble, which last
December acquired Sterling
Publishing, a leading specialist in gardening, cooking and
other "how-to" books, has
been steadily expandin$ the
publishing end of its busmess.
Riggio says that about 4 percent of current sales come
from books the retailer also
publishes.
i\, "We expect to ~et to I0 pertent w1thm live years,''
Riggio said Monday in an
interview.
Other stores publish books,
too, but not as aggressively as

Barnes &amp; Noble. A rival
chain, Borders Group Inc., has
its own publishing imprint,
Borders State Street Classics.
But a spokeswoman said sales
were "small" and that there
were no plans to expand publi~:~·e s &amp; Noble's new
imprint means that Penguin
Classics, the Modern Library
and other publishers of older
works face aggressive competition from the same company
that sells many of their books.
Barnes &amp; Noble will place its
own books at the front of its
stores and offer editions for as
little as $3.95, easily as inexpensive as its rivals.
"Yeah, I'm concerned," said
Ellen Chodosh, a vice president and publisher and Oxford
University Press, a leading
publisher of classics. "You
never like to see another competitor in the field.' '
Many older books are in the
public domain, meaning the
copyright has expired and
anyon~ is entitled to release
them, "Moby-Dick," for
example, has countless editions: paperbacks, scholarly
texts, specially annotated vol umes .
Barnes &amp; Noble has long
published such works, but the
n_ew versions are far more
ambitious, with Sc holarly
· notes, 111\Jstratwns, glossanes
and discussion questions and
a list of plays or movies
inspired by the original text.
Riggio says he want s the

Safer
Let's hope quick end to war
will make for sqfer world
• The Journal Star, Peoria, Ill., on hoping the war will
make the world &gt;afer: Today the United States finds itself in
an unprecedented war of our choosing, which most people in
the world, and man y Americans. have believed all along to be
a mistake. It has come anyway.
.
. And so, as the name of the anti-war group "Move On"
implies. it is time to "move on" to the next phase: To voice the
hope. or to say a prayer. that the li ghting will end soon; that
few -on either side - will die. thai destruction will be minimal, that fears of new terrorist attacks will prove groundless.
The way to a quick Prace is a quick victory.
. This does not mean, as we are beginning to hear with some
f(equency, that those who continue to protest the war. or to
criticize President Bush's judgment, are ami-American .
Speaking out when one believes government leaders and gov- .
ernment policies are wrong is as American as the Constitution,
.which was written by some of the fine st dissenters any young
nation has produced.
Since Americans first began to suspect that President Bush
was serious about disarming Saddam Hussein and vt~ry likely
toppling him, this newspaper has opposed' achieving these
objectives through military attack. That cause is over now.
And so we count ourselves among those who hope the president is right in his belief that this is a nece ssary war that wiU
make the nadpn and the world safer, that will help spread ·
i:l~mocracy in the Middle East, and that will dissuade other
repressive regimes from seekin~ powerful weapons and rewarding terrorists who would stnke us_By these very tough
standards victory will be measured.

Admi-nistration outlines litany

BY SCOTT LINLAW
Associated Press

WASHINGTON - · The
Bush 'administration, increasingly angry with Syria, wants
to ensure that Damascus gets
the message sent by Saddam
Hussein's collapse and, stops
hartJoring leaders of Iraq's toppled government.
President Hush was careful
to stop short of threatening war
against Syria, though he
warned the country not to take
in Iraqi leaders. He also
charged that Syria has chemical weapons.
"They just need to cooperate,'' Bush said Sunday.
Syria llatly denied the accljsations.
''Of course Syria has no
chemical weapons," Foreign
Min\stry
spokeswoman
. Bouthayna Shaaban told

Lebanon's
AI-Hayat-LBC
satellite channel late Sunday.
Syria has also denied that
any members of the Iraqi leadership had lled to Damascus
and says it has dosed its border
with Iraq.
America's principal ally in
the Iraq war downplayed the
prospect of bringing the war to
Syria.
"We have made it clear that
there are no plans for Syria to
be next on the list," Foreign
Secretary Jack Straw told
reporters in Manama, Bahrain,
the first leg of a Mideast tour to
discuss rebuilding Ir-aq. "But
there are questions that the
Syrians need to answer."
Straw was also less certain
than his U.S. counterparts of
accusations that Syria has
weapons of ma~ s destruction.
"I'm not sure, and that's why
we need to talk to them about
it," Straw said_

Rumsfeld said on CBS' "Face

Too many possible weapons sites in
Iraq for U.S. to search, officials say
BY MATT KELLEY
Associated Press

WASHINGTON - Iraqis

about places where weapons
of mass destruction might be
hidden, adding to the thousands of sites the United States
wants to check.
As combat winds down in
Iraq, the hunt for chemical and

There are more potential
nuclear, biological or chemical
weapons sites in Iraq than U.S,

Pentagon officials said
Sunday. .
U.S. forces have a list of
2,000 to 3,000 sites in Iraq that
need to be checked, and
weapons teams are checking
up to 20 sites a day, said the
war's commander, Gen.
Tommy Fr-.mks. Iraqis ranging

from common citizens to highranking officials have suggested other possible hiding places
to be searched, Franks and
other military officials said.
''There are so m1my sites, we
are not able to get to all of
them right away," a senior
Pentagon official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
"It's fair to say there are a lot
of places U.S. forces are

MARTINSVILLE, Va. As the laps ticked by with
Jeff Gordon stuck behind
.
leader Bobby Labonte, both
drivers knew that Gordon
st ill had one trump card to
play in the Virginia 500.
Gordon played it with 13
laps to go Sunday, bumping
Lal;lonte's Chevrolet in the
first turn, using the bobble it
created to take the lead and
going on to his 62nd Winston
Cup victory.
"I don't think anybody
would have done it any dif-

ferent." Gordon said . ."We
were definilely better. It was
just hard to pass out there . I
would have. expected the
~ame fronl anyone else."
Gordon · had been chasing
Labonte for 35 laps, and fail ing to push hi s Monte Carlo
. ahead. m hi s bids to pass ori
the outside, on the inside and
in a stirring side-by-side duel.
"Each lap that went by and
got closer· to the fini sh, the ·
bumps were goin g to Jget
harder and harder and harder," Gordon said. "I was pret·
ty determined to win this
race . I thought I was kind of
nice about it."
Both drivers knew Gordon

had the stron ger car, and
Labonte admit!ed he expected I he nudge - and accepted
it as fair.
"That '\'US good, clean
fun," he said, acknowledging
that Gordon only moved him
slightly to create space, rather
that making him hit the wall.
The victory was Gordon's
fourth
on
0.526-mile
Martinsville Speedway. the
shortest circuit in . Winston
Cup racing. It . also was. his
first this season and his first
in 16 races dating to last
September in Kan sas City.
When Gordon pulled away
on another restart with eight
laps to go, the outcome was

clear. The II th caution ~ilh a
lap to go fini shed the race.
Labonte ,' who won this race
last year, held on for second,
and Dale Earnhardt Jr. finished third after having some
bad luck near the end.
Earnhardt led three times
for 195 laps but ran into the
back of Ricky Craven's car
during .a restan with 55 laps
to go. The crash helped drop
Earnhardt to fifth, and he was
thrilled to come back and finish third.
Virginia natives Jeff Burton
and Elliott Sadler finished
fourth and fifth in Fords. and
defending champion Tony
Stewart was ~ ixth in a Chevy.

Kenselh, who was lapped
by Gordon on the 61 sl' lap,
tinished 22nd. Only 12 cars
were still on the lead lap
when'Gordon·took the checkered flag .
Gqrdon led three times for
190 laps and won with an
average speed of 75.557
mph. The race was sl(lwed by
caution flags for 64 laps, and
the last lead change was the
14th among nine drivers.
Sterling Marlin finished
seventh, followed by Rusty
Wallace, Jimmie Johnson and
Ken Schrader. Ricky Rudd
was 11th.

.DEAR
ABBY:
My
boyfriend, "Brian," and I are in
our early 30s. In June we will
have been dating for six years.
We've lived together for four, I
am ready for marriage and a
family, but Brian considers
marriage a "financial decision." He has told me more
than once that he would gain
nothing by mall}'ing me.
Frankly, our hving arran~e­
ment has never been financtally ideal for me. At the time we
moved in together, I had been
making payments on a small
home that would have been
paid for by now. I sold it (takrng a loss) and gave away all
my furniture when I moved in
w1th Brian. He had just purchased a pricey home, and I
have always paid him rent and
shared alllivmg expenses.
So I have to ask myself:
What does my live-in companion have to "lose" financtally
by marrying me? I continue to
pay him rent. At my own
expense I have painted the
bedrooms, put up all new
drapes and blinds. planted a
beautiful garden - all for a
house that's not even mine.
Last June, I gave Brian one
year to ask me to marry him.
Here it is almost May, and he
is no closer to proposing now
than he was then. Am I being
unreasonable to expect a seri-

Dear
Abby
ADVICE
ous commitment' Any advice
would help. Sign me ... COLORADO LADY IN WAIT·
lNG
DEAR LADY IN WAITING:
Unreasonable, no.
Naive, yes. Your boyfriend is a
self-admitted cash-and-carry
kind of guy. He is only interested in the financial benefits
of your current arrangement.
You have stars in your eyes,
and Brian is blinded by dollar
signs. If you want a real par1nership, find someone with
whom you have more in common.
DEAR ABBY: "Vivian" has
been my best friend for· II
years. Our children are the
same ages and our families
have always been close. Last
summer, Viv suddenly stopped
talking to me and wouldn't
return my phone calls. The last'
time we spoke was Christmas
when she brought gifts over
for the kids and acted like

everything was fine. I haven 't
heard a word from her since.
I miss my friend and I, am
mystified as to why she won't
return my calls and e-mails. I
thought we were as close as
sisters. I don't understand how
a grown woman can toss out a
longtime friendship like yesterday's garbage. What more
can I do, Abby? -HURT
AND CONFUSED IN ORE-

GON

· DEAR HURT AND CONFUSED: You have done all
you can to preserve the friendship. The ball is now in
Vivian 's court. There may be
something going on in her life
that she's not willing to share
with you at this time. Go on
with your life and don't second-guess what you should or
shouldn't have done.
CONFIDENTIAL TO MY
READERS: Easter will soon
be here. Many people regard it
as an occasion to give pets to
small children. A word of caution: If you plan to surprise a .
child with a duckling, a chick
or a baby rabbit, please consider that living creatures need
proper care. Unless you are
absolutely certain thai the little
pet will receive the care it
needs to survive, please give
the child a stuffed bird or rabbit instead. Regardless of how
cute baby birds and animals

are, they should not be given to
children on impulse.
If you have . gotten this far
and are still determined to give
a live baby rabbit as a gift, I
strongly advise that you do
some re~arch first . Visit
www.RabbitNetwork.org/articles/easter.shtml for information about · rabbits' life' ·
expectancy, health issues, temperament and desirability , as
household pels.

MIDDLEPORT - By a

RACINE - Teachers and
staff at the Southern Local
School District voiced concerns. and lislened intently to
school board members and
the superintendent about possible
budget
cuts
at
Monday' s meeting.
The district is more than
$665.000 in debt, and faculty
and statf layoffs are one possibility the board is considering to pay off the debt.
One of the main expeqdi tures that will be evaluated
are salary and benefit pack ·
ages, which make up 83 per·
cent of the budget. Fixed
expenditures, which include
such things as utility bill s or
fuel costs, represent the
remaining 17 percent of the
budget and are not reduced
as easily.
"I predict that the board of
education will scrutinize the
educational needs of our di strict and enact cost saving
measures," Superintendent
Bob Grueser said.
While no ac ti·on was taken,
superintendent Bob Grueser
smd a deci sio n co uld be
mad ~ as early as the next
meeting, April 28. Board
President Richard Hill said

the board dues 1\ot hav e an
easy deci sion to make.
"U nfortunately. any decision we make is going to
affect the kids one way or
another:· he said. ·'It is not
something we are taking
lightly."

"We need to show the commission thai we· are making

Board
member
Ron
Cammarata said he -wants
budget decision s to be made
locally instead of by the
state.
"They would come in and
have no mercy at all." he
said.
Two reasons were cited for
the increased costs and the
spiraling debt. Health insurance premiums have dramat-

ically increased for the
school district during the past
three years.
Those costs have increased
more than 30 percent each ·
year for the past three years.
Med Mutual is the health
insurance provider.
Grueser said the di strict

health care costs in the state.
Cammarata said the district

Grueser said there is an
uneven bargaining situation
, between the di strict and Med
Mutual. The district is unable
to compare its customized
plan against another plan
from a competing in surance
co'mpany. While the district
is actively seeking ways to

Teachers push small

RACINE
Several
teachers pled their case that
layoffs would be detrimental to · the district at the
Southern Local School
Board meeting Monday.
Carissa Bailey, a teacher
at Southern Elementary,
said she had 21 students last.
year and only 16 this year.
She said that because she is
able to devote more tim11to
her students, they have done
better ·and progressed further.
Bailey said her students
are at least two chapters further ahead in math this year
than they were last year.
According to the ODE,
the average classroom students-per-teacher ratio is
15.7 for Southern. The state
average is 18 students per·
teacher.
Similar districts, which
have comparable demographics according to the

ODE, have the same kinds
of studentiteacher ratios .
Staffing layoffs could
affect teacher ratios because
fewer teachers would mean
more students per classroom. Many elementary
school teachers told school
board members how irrfportant aides were to the classroom.
.
Carla Shuler, who has
been teaching for 32 years,
said teachers were par1ly to
blame for the district's
financial misfonune.
A math 'teacher, Shuler
supplied a barrage of numbers that paint a picture of
how teachers could save the
district money s_imply by
showing up for work.
'
According to Shuler, out
of 143 days thus far this
school year, teachers across
the district have missed a
cumulative total of 720
days- which averages out
to be about 12 days per
teacher. There are 59 teach-

and sewer rates. while the

only $5.000 in revenue.
The B PA was not repre sented at Monday 's meeting.
Other business
lannarelli sa id the own ers of a mobile home on

been given 30 ·days to
remove the mobile home ;
because it is in violation 'o f
zoning and building codes.

bus iness district has been
approved by village attorney Linda Warner. and said
the
