I danced a few times, but mostly sat with another girl who's a.good friend. When I ~ot up to make a phone call m the hallway. I was unaware that her father had been watching me. He followed me down the hall, grabbed me, and wouldn't let go. I tried to break away, but the harder I struggled, the tighter he held me. Nobody saw us: When I finally got away from him, I ran out of the building and all the way home. I haven't told my mom about it because she would jump to the wrong conclusions - and if I tell my friend, she might accuse m~ of lying about her dad and 1t would wreck our friendship. What should I do, Abby? TROUBLED TEEN GIRL IN LOGAN, UTAH DEAR TROUBLED: You have to speak up. Tell your mother. Tell your clergy~rson. Your friend's father IS a predator. He assaulted you ~nd he MUST be reported. If you remain silent, he could do something more serious to you or some other young girl. Please don't wait. Dear Abby ADVICE DEAR ABBY: I have been ' living with "Ken" for seven years. On two occasions in the past few months, he has told me he's dating someone else. Each time., Ken allowed me to believe it for more than an hour. Then he admitted he was "putting me on"- that he was .only testing me to see if I really loved him. . We were already havin~ problems , and this "game ' has caused me to doubt our future together. When Ken realized how upset and manipulated I felt, he apologized and said he regretted ever making such a statement. I. am tryin& to believe him and forgive h1m, but I'm having a hard time. Am I wrong for having doubts about him'!

DEAR ABBY: I read with interest the letter from "Michigan Grandmother," whose son had . recently divorced and. whose grandchildren were starting to ·steal. In your reply you advised. "When couples separate, they still have a Joint responsibility to the children they brought into this -world." I think that on some level, children know this. Often, when parents are having trouble in their lives (divorce in this case), children will act out in some manner - such as stealing - so that family members MUST come together to handle the crisis. The grandchildren in this instan·ce may not actually expect their parents_to reunite, but their stealing is "rewarded" by seeing their parents involved and coming together .to work through the problem. In this way, they are once again a family -even if it's just for a little while. Time and love are great healers. Your advice to ..•'Michigan Grandmother" was on the money. Spend more time with the boys until they have adjus(e_d to the divorce . If they don't make the adjustment, family counseling is the next' step. - JULJ HERREN, ST. PETE BEACH, FLA.

The state Surface Mine Board voted 4-3 Friday to overrule the Department of Environmental Protection, which last week refused to extend a deadline for the dome to Elk Run Coal Co.

Anderson is already serving 88 years in an Ohio jail following his conviction on I 08 charges of child pornography, obscenity and pandering prostitution involving minors and adults. During the Ohio trial, Anderson 's lawyers argued that co-defendant Robert Lynn Sandford- who died during the investigation was responsible for more than 40,000 pornographic images stored on Anderson's home and work computers.

Register, on a New York Times editorial against ihe nomination of Atty. General Bill Pryor for judgeship: . A New York Times editorial this week against the nomination of Alabama Attorney General Bill Pryor for a federal appeals judgeship provides a textbook example of what's wrong with the way the political left sees th e courts. The editorial contends that a brief Mr. Pryor filed in defense of Texas' anti -sodomy statute makes him unfit for the judgeship because it shows the AG is against gay rights. Nowhere in the editorial, however, is there any reference to . the Constitution or to Supreme Court precedent. Iqstead. there is a clear assumption that laws against homosexual acts ru:e unfair - and that, therefore, theY. ought to be struck down by the courts. The problem is that judges are not supposed to decide on their own whether a law is fair - that's a job for legislaiors - but only whether it is forbidden by the' Constitution or by a superseding statute .... But the Times seems less concerned with what's in the Constitution or in court precedent th im it is intent on determining its own sense of what is or isn' t fair, and then turning its opinion into a constitutional right - by judic ial fiat, without any democratic processes intervening. Down that road lie not more rights, but tyranny. - TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Saturday, May 31. the 151 st day of 2003. There are 214 days left in the year.

Ohio Dear Editor: "We are very concerned about the impending layoffs within the sheriff s office. However, at this time, there is no more money for further approprialions." This is a quote attributed to Gallia · County Commissioner's President , Harold Montgomery. It appeared in a front -page story found in the May 20, 2003. edition of the Gallipolis Daily . Tribune. Mont gomery :s reply was in response to Gallia County Sheriff David L Martin's recent decision to layoff 12 employees from the sheriffs oftice for lack of funding. In this front-page story, Montgomery also said, "as a · qui ck solution to .the problem, there is none and unfortunately there is no immediate solution to the sheriffs dilemma." The solution : Lay off all of Commissioner Harold Montgomery 's relatives who are employees of Galli a · County. Then use money generated by the layoff of Montgomery 's relatives to ftmd the sheriffs deficit. After all, the main function of gov· ernment is the protection of the lives and the property of the citizens. Harlan W. Northup James A. Northup Gallipolis, Ohio - Teed qff aboutAnnikq A lot of middle-aged white guys are teed off because Annika Sorenstam got to play golf in a recent PGA event. At first, I couldn't figure out the angst. Surely, Annika is nicer to look at · than most of these golf guys who often dress in green pants and yellow shirts. Are there no mirrors in the clubhouses? I mean, here's a trim young woman walking around smiling and hitting the ball. So what's wrong with that? Well. there's plenty wrong with it, as I found out. Based upon dozeris of conversations with male golfers who take their hobby very seriously, I can now report that Annika's foray into the world of men 's golf was looked upon as an intrusion into the very essence of maledom . The guys sense a threat to their fairway hege· mony, and they don 't like it one bit. Let's take it step by step. Golf is boring: there's no question about it. You just whack a little ball and drive the cart and whack the ball and drive the cart ... I'm sure you get the picture. But while driving and whacking, guys talk. And what ther say is not ··---- · -·-·-- ~ · ~·- · - ·!' · - ~ ... ··~ ~· -- · Bill O'Reilly meant for women to hear. The entire golf dynamic in the USA is built around guys yakking amongst themselves, much like (the ladies' lunch deal. And trust me, most American women do not want guys al' their lunch table, even if they do happen to be Swedish. So it really wasn't about Annika 's golf game; it was about Annika being on ·the course at all. Once the dam breaks, many guys feel that women will swarm the tees, and all macho camaraderie will cease. The golf course is a refuge for the beleaguered American man who has to behave at home, at work and most other places. Out on the fairway he can curse and tell dirty jokes. He can scratch and .snort and scream, and then drink what he wants in the clubhouse bar. He gets out of the house for five . ~ ........ _ . ---·· ... hours, and nobody's g1vmg him directions in the golf cart. So Annika Sorenstam ran into a male c ultural buzzsaw that I believe she's clueless about. In Sweden, it's too cold to play golf most of the year. But here in the USA. the golf course is a primary male sanctuary. E:."en though some women have succeeded in taking up the sport, the guys generally don't like it. You think Bill Clinton wants Hillary on the green with him? You think George W. wants Laura in cart? WELL, THEY DON ' T! To be fai r, I must tell you that I do not play golf. l'did as a kid, and I was rotten at it. l have no patience for the game, and it's harder than it looks. Plus, I was a bachelor for many years, and there were few ladies on the links, so · why waste my time? Standing around telling put· ter jokes and hearing about Big Len's monster drive held absolutely no appeal for me . So I cannot feel the pain of male golfers, but I am beginnin g to understand it. American men today are under enormous pressute on all sides. Pl ay ing golf with the guys -- - ,.... - ~--. - ..... . . .. is a release. a therapeutic session where boys can be boy s al)d get away from the demands _,..Pf domestic bli ss and the chaotic workplace. In that respect golf is good. If the guy ca n come home refreshed and happy, everybody around him . benefits. Hey, it's better than a strip · club! Annika Sorenstam didn't make the cut ih the tourn ament, and millions of guys cheered, albeit some silently. Annika stumbled upon something primal, emotional and . crucial for many men. The boys need time away fr,om the girls, and the golf course is a convenient esca pe. It's nothing personal, Annika, and please don ' t take it to heart. But the si mple truth is,' some guys si mply don't want· you around.

She said while celebrations of Scottish and Irish heritage like St. Patri ck's Day are ve ritable Amer.icai\ inslitutiom, celebration s of Welsh heritage are · more low-key.

She said she's noticed that the' local Welsh community keep to themselves, much like the people in Wales. "We're fru gal in many ways," Lewis said. "We don '.t raarket <;m rselves very well."

Employer �' ' ' Page 86 •.t;aturbap 'QI:imr• ·l!itntint! Pomeroy • Middleport··Gallipolis, Ohio • Point Pleasant, WV • Anonymous dad now eager to reclaim parental rights · I . DEAR ABBY: Fifteen years ago when I was single, I got the wife of a friend pregnant. (I'll call her Lily.) Lily was afraid that coming clean with her husband would destroy their marriage, so we both kept quiet and allowed him to think the child was his. A beautiful baby girl was born; they named her ..Candice." Shortly after tlie birth, Lily, her husband and Candice moved out of state. I couldn't trace them, which meant my child disappeared from my life. I roamed a local girl, and we have led a quiet, happy life all these years with our two young daughters. I told my wife everything. She was supportive of my desire to find Candice, but we both felt torn about how aggressive the search should be. A year ago out of the blue, Lily contacted me. .She had divorced her husband and married another man who knows that I am her daughter's birth .father. Candice is now · 14, and the thfee live only two towns away. Lily and I agreed to meet at a pu!'. lie soccer event where Candice was competing. I was able to finally see my daughter. She looks and acts very much like me - even to the Dear Abby ADVICE point of excelling in the same sports I did at her age . With Lily's permission, I have continued .to "show up" at Candice's sporting events, but her mother wants no contact beyond that. Lily has done an excellent job of raising her, and Candice is an "A" student wlio is socially con s.cious and well-adjusted. I am deeply ashamed of the way both Lily and I handled things from the beginning of this girl's life, and feel strongly that I want my daughter to know who I am. I am more than willi.ng to accept financial responsibility. Candice may want to meet her two half-sisters, and she deserves to know the medical history of my side of the family, as there is an unusually high rate of breast cancer. Lily is dead-set against telling Candice anything. and until now I have respected her wishes. Please give me your opinion on whether my daughter should be told the truth now - or ever. AN:XIOUS BIRTH FATHER IN TEXAS . DEAR ANXIOUS BIRTH FATHER: I agree that, if only for medical reasons, Candice should eventually be told the truth. However, because her mother feels sGJ strongly. that may have to wait until she's an adult. It is my belief that children should be told the truth about their parentage as early as possible.

Post members agreed last week to spend $500 to have 100 of the medallions with ribbons and a plastic case manufactured and sold at the dinner. which Post Commander John Holcomb ~elieve s is the oldest docu- . mented such dinner still celebrated iri Ohio. Holcomb, who has researched the history of Civil War veterans' bean dinners, said the medallions are similar to those once given to Ohio Civil War veterans by the state. Post 161 has sponsored the bean dinner for the last 50 years, and is joining with the village of Vinton in this year's event in honor of the state's bicentennial. The medallions will be manufactured by Muskegon. Mich.-based Trophy House. Holcomb said the tradition of a "campfire". meeting of Ctvil War ~veterans who fought for the Union began soon after the conflict's end. "At these gatherings, the public was invited to hear the old soldiers reminisce about their wartime experiences and partake of the stan.dard Army meal of beans, pork. hardtack and coffee prepared over a campfire and served in genuine soldier style," he said. The gatherings became known as Grand Army of the Republic or GAR bean din· ners in the late 1880s. a few years after the first Vinton bean dinner was documented in October 1883 through newspaper accounts, Holcomb said. But the actual beginning of Vinton's event was traced by Holcomb to 1868, 1 which he called the "legendary" date due to lack of supporting accounts. The Rio Grande Memorial Association said similar bean dinners 'began at Rio 6rande in 1870. The dinner is still celebrated the second Saturday in August at Bob Evans Farm.
