In the evening, they performed for another audience, adults and children in a show as humorous as it was moving. The performance "Recalling Our Freedoms" was part of this weekend's Emancipation Celebration, observing the !40th anniversary of President Lincoln's s.igning of the Emancipation Proclamation, which freed slaves in Confederate states.

GALLIPOLIS Holzer-· Consolidated Health Systems has acquired 80 percent ownership of Wyngate assisted living facilities in Gallipolis and Jackson, to an according announcement made Friday by Thomas E. Tope, president and CEO of HCHS, and Roger Vincent, president of Chancellor Health Partners. Both facilities are managed by Chancellor, and located on property formerly owned by HCHS in Gallipolis and Jackson. Chancellor Health Partners owns and operates properties that provide seniors with housing and health care, with an . emphasis on providing a homelike environment with nursing care as needed. Currently, Chancellor owns and operates I 0 communities in Ohio and West Virginia. Their facilities in Gallipolis and Jackson were opened in 2000, and provide services and support that assist their residents in living as independent as possible. HCHS , part of the Southeastern Ohio community since 1909, is the parent corporation of Holzer Medical Center in Holzer Gallipoli s, Medical Center-Jackson, Holzer Senior Care Center, Holzer Home Care and Holzer Hospice. · "We are excited about Holzer's opportunities in the assisted living en vironment and welcome Chancellor to our family," said Tope. "This investment allows us to grow with a successful partner, and to expand our continuum of care. Chancellor, with their wealth of experience, will continue to provide management to both facilities. As HCJiS DARWIN - Possibly the tallest building in Meigs County at the moment is a cement mixer located at the U.S. 33 highway construction site near Ohio 681. The I00-foot tall portable cement mixer can make 2,500 cubic yards of concrete a day, or enough for 250 truckloads. At its peak, the machine can mix up between 5,000 to 7,000 cubic yards a day. Ten cubic yards of concrete weighs 20 tons. Greg Schafer, plant supervisor, said the reason highway construction teams are using the central cement mixer owned by Mar-Zane Inc., from Zanesville, is because the project is using such a huge volume of concrete. "Using a machine like this on a highway project is not a common thing," he said. "We only use it for big Ple•se see n, A& U.S. 35 group keeping an eye on funds for project BY KEVIN KEUY kkeily@ mydailyregister.com owns property conti~uous to both Wyngate facilities in Gallipolis and Jackson, , both locations afford us the opportunity of future development." "We are truly pleased to become a part of the Holzer family," said Vincent. "We know this partnership will strengthen our ties to the community and add depth to our operations. We are extremely excited about the opportunities this brings to Wyngate and its residents. families and staff." The partnership agreement between HCHS and CHP went into effect Sept. I , 2003. POINT PLEASANT - The U.S. Route 35 Committee of Mason and Putnam counties continues to monitor the status of efforts to fund a major upgrade of the highway, and has · found progress is being made. U.S. Rep. Shelley Moore Capito was successful in getting $5.6 million into a transportation bill that recently won approval in the full House, while Sen. Robert C. Byrd saw committee passage of action including $6 million for 35 . The money is earmarked for planning and engineering on a portion of the 30 miles of two-lane highway that make up 35 in Mason and Putnam, widely considered a safety hazard.

Wolman and a team of American Civil Liberties Union lawyers have argued that Dalton, 24, was wrongfully imprisoned for what should have been constitutionally protected free speech or, in this case, writings. D\llton, of Columbus, pleatled guilty in July 2001 to pandering obscenity involving a minor, which falls under Ohio's pornography law. He later asked to withdraw the plea so he could fight the constitutionality of the law, but Franklin · County Common Pleas Judge Nodine Miller refused. ACLU attorneys . then appealed.

READER'S PageA4 VIEW \ Patriot Ad expklined Dear Editor: I would like to offer perspective to Nat Hentoff's Sept. 16 column on the Patriot Act. I am continually dismayed that most columns otl'ering critiques of the Act don't deal with its worst aspects and I would like to present a few of those from Patriot Act IT: Section 501: A U.S. citizen engaging in lawful activities can be pulled off the street and thrown into a van - never to be seen again. ·Section I09: Allows secret courts to issue contempt charges against individuals who refuse to incriminate themselves or others. Section 802 of Patriot Act I gives the government power to . declare any crime domestic terrorism. Recall that I stated two years ago that the government's definition of terrorism would prove to be very elastic. Ashcroft is the perfect choice to preside over these abominations because he has traditionally cared little for civil ri ghts. The people of his own home state detested him to such a degree that when he ran for the Senate, they elected a dead man in preference to him. That's an extraordinary repudiation . Remember a few months ago, when "Dubya" actually said he wouldn't mind seeing a dictatorship established in America, as long as he could be the dictator? He who smirks wasn't joking. Jeff Fields Middleport So what does Madonna do encore after for' an smooching up Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera on naJional television'l She puts out a children's book. That's certainly in context. isn't it '! What's next, a new Hardy Boys series written by Larry Flynt? Madonna's book is harmless, some tale about English flowers with lessons fClr little g irls.

Anyway. most children's books are po s iti~e things. hut Madonna has a karma debt to kids that thi s book is nut going to wipe ot.IL Over thl' years · she has 1louncl;'d around tlaunting her sex uali ty, which is fine if you're an adult, but a bit confusing if you're a kid sitting there watching her locking lips with two pop stars whom you idol ize . I bet millions of Ameri can parents were thrill ed they had to answer questi ons abou t THAT And then Madonna tell s the press that she doesn 't want her young daughter to get caught up in all the sex stuff. I love this tactic. It 's Sunday, September 21,2003 Bill O'Reilly OK for me to sex up a pro- gra m I know kids will be watching. btll I don't want my daug hter to see it. Great. The point is that many American children cannot escape being sexualized at a youn g age. The education reporter for the Washington Post . Linda Perl stei n. spent a year wit h a bunch of adolesce nt s in suburban Maryland and writes that sex is topic ND. I in Middle Sehoul these days. Ten-year-Dids know all about oral sex and other stuff thm no chi ld that young coul d possibly put into context or deal wi th emotiona ll y. The responsibility for the sex ualization of the American child lies on two doorsteps. First. many paren ts are no.t nearly pro-active enough in protecting their kids from inappropriate sex ual (lisplays. No child should uation. I'm not coming at this from ;i prudish point-of- view. I take a libertarian approach to private sexual hehavior by adults. If you wa nt to swing on a trapeze in private. it's nobody's business btll your own. as long as you aren't breaking the law or hurting anyone. in your sexual pursui ts. But no good comes from sex ualizing ..:hildren. They cannot poss ibly make respo nsible decisions in this area and deserve to have a childhood free of sex. Remember Jon Benet Ramsey'' Didn't it make yo u sick. seeing that little girl all tarted up by her mother in the pursuit of chi ld beauty pageant · ribbons? There is something very wrong about imposing any kind of .sexuality on a child. We are not laking this topic seriou sly enough in America. Madonna can write all the children's books she wants. but until she stops being part of the problem, I will consider her insincere and hypocritical. Sex is for grmv.nups. Period.

Hill rushed for I09 r.ards on just four carries whJ!e scor.tng touchdowns on runs of '15 and 42 yards. . The 5-l 0 junior was also effective through the air connecting on 4 of 7 passes for 66 yards. The Marauders were unable to get the offense going after posting 46 points last week. The Fairland defense bent but didn't break as Meigs moved the ball into Dragon territory on several occasions just to come up short of the end zone. The Marauders found themselves in a hole on their first possession of the night. As has been the case in several games this year the Marauders were pinned deep in their own territory when Fairland punter Tyler Bowman killed a punt at the Meigs three-yard fine. Sophomore tailback Josh Buzzard gave the Marauders some breathing room on their first play as he ripped off a 28 yard run to get the maroon and gold out of the shadow of their own goal post. The Marauder drive stalled at the Meigs 43 where. Brandon Kimes got off a 35 yard punt, Sam Huff gave a glimpse of things to come on the return, only a saving tackle by Kimes · kept the speedster out of the end zone. Jon Larkins came up with a big defensive play intercepting a Hill pass returning and returning it 9 yards giving Meigs a first down at the Dragon 48. A Buzzard run and a 15yard completion from Eric Cullums to Matt Holley gave Meigs a first down at the Fairland 24. The Marauders would squander the scoring opportunity when C.J. Stewart fell on a Meigs fumble at the Dragon 36. The Dragons promptly drove 64 yards in 9 plays wtth flill covering the final 15 yards to put the Dragons on the scoreboa~d. Bowman ran the two pomt · conversion in to make it 8-0 with 10:04 left in the first half. , On the ensuing Meigs drive the Marauders were forced to punt from their own 30. Huff gathered the ball in at his own 43 and raced 57 yards down the left sideline to pay dirt, Hill booted the extra point giving the Dragons a 15-0 advantage that held up as the teams headed to the 1ocker rooms at the half. Joel Clelland gave the Marauders a spark to open the second half returning the kickoff 37 yards into Dragon territory. A 15-yard penalty on the Dragons added to the end of the return gave Meigs the ball at the Fairland 33. The Marauder ground game moved the ball to the Dragon 16 where the Marauders found themselves facing a 4th and 3 situatioQ. Collums passed complete to Eric Van Meter who was' cut down short of the first down by Deryk Neal turning away the Marauder threat. . Htll then went to work dnving his team 86 yards in just 5 plays. Hill busted several Meigs tackles on a 35-yard run to put the ball near midfield then circled the left end on a 43 yard to11chdown run . . Hill again tacked, on the extra point giving the hosts a comfortable 22-0 with 5:10 showing on the third quarter clock. The final points of the night came on a 9 yard touchdown run by Bowman, · set up by a 44 yard completion from Hill to Bowman on a 3rd and 8 play at the Fairland 45.

Meanwhile, Jackson took advantage. lronmen running back T.J. McDonald found the end zone on two occasions in the second quarter, once on an 18 yard run and again from a yard out late in the first half. McDonald wa.~ a workhorse, toting the ball 24 times for a team-high 156 yards. After the McDonald scores, the game went to half with Jackson nursing a 16-7 lead, but it did not go guietly. GAHS found ttself in field goal range with 10 seconds remaining before the break, but the attempt was blocked. · Jackson's Travis Huff picked up the footDatl and ran 90 yards to the end zone. However, a whistle had blown the play dead. Layton was livid that the play was stopped and demanded an explanation from the referee. "It was an inadvertent whistle," Layton explained. "The official said he blew it, he told me he blew it and there is nothing you can do about that now. It hurts, but he made the mistake and he admitted it and · that's all I can comment about that." Obviously not happy with the first half performatice, Coach Bokovitz laid down a challenge to his Devils at intermission. "I ~ot really hy~r at halftime,' Bokovitz satd. "I got on the kids a little bit and challenged them. I just told them that we're not going to come off that field losing, because we're the better team ." GAHS responded immediately. A 24-yard pass play from Johnson to Cody Caldwell set up a 41-yard touchdown dash by Geiger on the third play from scrimmage. It was the only score of the stanza, but pulled GAHS to within two at 16-14. Jackson looked as if was going to answer on the ensuing possession after a 40-yard --~----'-'---------, - Humphreys sprint set the lronmen up at the Blue Devil 15-yard line. Jackson got as close as the six before the wheels fell off. A five yard penalty set the lronrnen up with a fourth-andsix from the 11-yard line. "We were in four-down territory, we jump offsides and that gives us a longer distance to go there," commented Layton. Steve Kenney came up with his second nice defensive play in a row, grabbing the jersey of Humphreys as he threw and forcing the incomplete pass. "It was a big stop there for them, we needed to Jut that one in and we neede the six points on the blocked field goal, but we didn't get them," Layton said. The defensive stand allowed the Blue Devils to reclaim the lead early in the fourth. A short three-yard pass from Johnson to Getger capped off an eightplay, 57-yard drive and made the score 20-16. Then the scoring blitz began . Jackson answered with a long touchdown drive, keyed primarily by the running of Humphreys and McDonald. Humphreys eventually sneaked the ball across the goal line with 4: 16 showing on the clock. Fourteen seconds later, GAHS was back on top thanks to a hu~e special teams play. The enure game, Jackson was avoiding kicking the ball deep to GAHS return men, kicking the ball out of bounds on punts as well as kick-offs. Coach Bokovitz was led up, and forced Jackson to kick it down the middle by accepting the five-yard illegal procedure penalties.

Sunday, Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis Basketball Sunday, September 21, Septemb~r 21, 2003 National Football League Baseball CLEVELAND (AP) The Cleveland Cavaliers cut lies with the Cleveland Rockers on Friday, putting the WNBA team's future in question. : Cavaliers owner Gordon Gund cited low attendance for the decision, sayi ng he ~ould not find a way to !J1ake the team profitable. · "I have invested in it now for seven years trying to .find a business model for it to work in our marketplace ," Gund said. "The fans we had were very enthusiastic and l'ery supportive. We just tlidn 't have enough." · The WNBA will attempt to find a new owner for the Rockers, league spokes)Woman Traci Cook said. If nn owner is found. the team i:ould remain in Cleveland or be moved. · "We do have some poten· tial owners who are interest· ed in a WNBA franchise ." Cook said. "We would have fo see whether the Rockers lire the right fit for them. " • The Rockers raoked lOth out of the 14 WBNA teams with an average attendance of 7,400 this season while playing at the 20,000-seat Gund Arena. ; The Rockers reached the playoffs but lost in the first tound to the Detroit Shock. · The team did not turn a profit in any of its seven seasons, Gund said. : He said he would like to $ee a new owner keep the team in Cleveland. : "If they want to play at the arena, we'll do what we can reasonably to make it possible," he said. ATLANTA (AP) - The moment felt downright routine. Rafael Furcal played cards with Andruw Jones and Henry Blanco. Robert Fick called over Vinny Castilla to show off a new lightweight set of cleats. · The Atlanta Braves gathered in 'the clubhouse Friday like it was just another game in just another season. Which, of course, it was. The Braves are division champions. What else is new? "There's a lot of guys in this clubhouse who aren't ready to celebrate," said Fick, who's in his tirst seasort with the Braves. ''To tell you the truth, I'm not ready to celebrate. There's a lot of untinished busi· ness leti." Atlanta clinched the NL .East on Thursday. an off day, when the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the second. place Florida Marlins. It was the team's 12th straight division title - three more than any other team in professional sports. Routine'' Yes. Tt!ken for granted'' Hardly. The Braves heard all sorts of doom· and-gloom predictions after an offseason that included Tom Glavine signing with the New York Mets ami Kevin Millwood being sent to Philadelphia in a cost-cut· ting trade. Not many teams could survive the loss of two 18-game winners. but Atlanta ran away with another division title, this one by 10 I/2 games. "In spring trdining,listening to the folks talk, how our run was over and this and Len Komoroski. presiden't of the Cavaliers-Gund Arena Company. said the company focus will turn to making the Cavaliers as successful as possible. Cav<tliers ticket sales took off with the acquisition of No. I overall draft · pick LeBron James earlier this year. The team stands poised to rebound from a string of miserable seasons. Gund said the Cavaliers• good fortune had no effect on the Rockers. ''No matter what had happened .with the Cavs .we would have come to this conclusion," Gund said. '' It 's not related at all." Members of the Rockers · front office will Stay with Cavaliers, he said. The Rockers became one of the WN BA's eight charter teams in October 1996. The league expanded to 16 teams in 2000, but lost two franchises following the 2002 season . Cook said the WNBA will play with no fewer than 13 · teams next season regardless of what happens to the Rockers . Connecticut is the only WNBA team not affiliated with an NBA club. She said the league had teams turn a profit last year. but would not say how many. WNBA president Val Ackerman thanked · the Cavaliers and the Rockers' fans for their support the past seven years as "we have worked to build a national presence for women's professional basketball. " that." hitting coach Terry Pendleton said. "Well, it hasn't ended yet." John Smaltz. the only holdov,er from the 199 I team that got the streak started, feels this is one of the more satisfying seasons. "This team overachieved way be,yond belief." the Braves' closer said. "Nobody predicted Marcus Giles would do what he did. No one predicted Javy Lopez would do what he did. You can go ri ght around the room." Indeed. the Braves won division title No. 12 with a different modus operandi than previous seasons. They didn't have a dominating pitching staff. Far from it. This team won with an offense that pro· duced four I()()-RBI players t(lr the first time in franchise history and (;rushed the team record for homers in a season. 226 going into Friday night 's game against the Marlins. "It's not easy. There's always <tditfcrcnt dynamic." Smoltz said. " It ~Ill changed this season. The pitching was not the fearsome foursome it once was.·· Newcomers Fick. Ray King and Roberto Hernandez realize better than most that a division title shouldn't be taken for granted. A year ago. Fick was playing for the Detroit Tigers, King pitched for the Milwaukee Brewers and Hernandez was employed by the Kansas City Royals. The Tigers and Brewers lost 106 games. The Royals had I00 losses. "What a difference a year makes," King body feels." The Phillies moved a half-game ahead of Florida. which lost 1-0 at Atlanta. The Phillies have two more games with the Reds before opening a three-game series at Florida on Tuesday. The Phillies were in playoff contention in 200 I, but Lie bertha!, who's played parts of the last Ill seasons with the Phillies, missed all but 34 games with an injured rig!Jt knee. "Being in a pennant race and coming 1n ame said. "It's an unbelievable leelin~ to know that come October. I'm not go mg to be sitting around on the couch watching someone ebe play. I'm actually going to be playing myself." . The only dis;tppoinunent for the Bruves was clinching the division on an off day for the second straight year.

What's more, Cleveland president Carmen Policy was a 49ers executive from 1983-97 until resigning to run the expan~ion Browns. . It's an important game for the Browns, whose fans already are grumbling about the playoff team's apparent regression in the first two games of Davis' third season.

"I JUst wonder once we get that first one, when it's going to stop. Really." A victory over the Steelers would do wonders for their image. Owner Mike Brown decided to let Lewis take over after the Bengals went 2-14 last season and drew some of the smallest crowds in sta· dium history. The only games they regularly sell out are against the Steelers and the Cleveland Browns, who bring along thousands of rowdy fans . "Our fans have been predominant in the Cincinnati stadium," Steelers receiver Hines Ward said. "It's like a home away from home." · It's that way even when the place is filled with Bengals fans. They sold out their opener when a local television station agreed to buy the remaining tickets two days before the game.

Holcomb is 37-of-66 329 for yards and four interceptions. and the Browns have scored just one touchdown in their first two games. Some fans already are calling for Couch- and even Holcomb admit s he must produce results quickly against linebackers Julian Peterson and Jamie Winborn and the 49ers' blitz-happy defense. "You can't force the balls down the field like I've done," Holcomb stiid. "We've been in situations where the offense has needed to make plays, and I've forced the ball downfield . That is all on me. If they're not going to give .you anything down the field , you have to be patient . I've kind of been impa· tient. " The 49ers are J. J following last week's bitter overtime loss at St. Louis.

The 49ers' hopes for a big tmhing day are pinned on a patchwork offensive line. Four of the five starters have dealt with ankle injuries already, and · two starters - Eric Heitmann and Derrick Deese- could miss Sunday's game or be seriously limited . "This is a game you want to be healthy for," said right tackle Scott Gragg, who should return from his sprained ankle. "Hopefully we're going to be running the ball a lot · against Cleveland, and that's always a thrill for the linemen who get to pave the way." In Hearst and Barlow, the 49ers pre· sent contrasting rushing styles to their opponents·. While neither has the pure breakaway speed showcased by Lewis last week, they bring problems to defensive preparations. Hearst is a shifty, sliding back, while Barlow is a powerful straight-ahead runner. When the 49ers decide to run the ball, they 're usually quite successful. After a week to P.repare for San Francisco's versattle attack , the Browns will discover whether they're headed back in the right direction . "They have two really explosive running backs," Davis said.

Buckeyes survive another scare BY RUSTY MILLER Associated Press COLUMBUS - Ohio State survived another scare. For the lOth time in the last 15 games, the No. 5 Buckeyes won a game decided by a touchdown or less, holding off a late Bowling Green charge in a 24-17 victory Saturday. Will Allen intercepted Josh Harris' pass on the final play as the defendin~ national champion Buckeyes (4-0) ran the1r winning streak to 18 games. Lydell ~oss scored two touchdowns and the Buckeyes' defense held the nation's most prolific offense to 366 yards. The Falcons came in averaging 575 yards and 51 points. A week ago, the Buckeyes blew a 24-7 fourth-quarter lead before beating North Carolina State 44-38 in three ovenimes: Ohio State again led 24-7 with less than 4 minutes left yet barely slid past the Falcons (3- l ), who had won their last five games against teams from BCS conferences. Ohio State did not have quarterback Craig · Krenzel, who watched the game from the sideline because of a hyperextended right 14 17 elbow. Scott McMullen took his place and passed for one touchdown. Ohio State has not lost to another Ohio college since falling 7-6 to Oberlin in 1921. That streak might have ended had not Bowling 'Green tight end Craig Jarrett dropped a touchdown pass early in the third · quarter. · The Buckeyes led 24-7 on Ross' 4-yard touchdown run with 8:46 left and appeared to be close to putting a team away for a change. But with 3:25 left, Harris hit Cole Magner on a 25-yard scoring pass. The Falcons' Janssen Patton then recovered the onside kick and Bowling Green was right back in business at the Ohio State 44. The Falcons drove to a third-and- I situation at the Ohio State 5 before a pair of penal- ties forced them to settle for l)haun Suisham's 33-yard field goal with I :46 left. Ohio State's Ben Hartsock covered the onside kick, but the Buckeyes ran only three plays -nearly losing the ball on third down when Ross fumbled but was awarded the ball in a wild scramble under a pile of players. Bowling Greet:t took over after the punt at its own 24. Harns. who completed 33-ot-54 passes for 326 yards and two touchdowns with three interceptions, was incomplete on two passes before finding Magner over the middle for 29 yards to the Ohio State 47 with 23 seconds left. Out of timeouts, the Falcons stopped the clock by spiking the ball on first down. Harris' pass for Patton· was too long in the end zone on second down. On the next play, Harris stepped up to avoid a rush an~ tossed a pass into the left flat where Allen p1cked 1\ off and ran out the clock. It was just another week of heroics for Allen. Two weeks ago, he had a 100-yard interception return as the Buckeyes edged 32-point underdog San Diego State 16-13. Allen recovered. a fJ.Ullbled kickoff and also made the critical tackle just inches short of the goal line on the final play of the game as the Buckeyes held off the Wolfpack last week. Ohio State was on · top 17-7 when McMullen's pass was intercepted by Patton on the third play. of the second half, Patton returning the ball to the Ohio State 23. On first down, Harris tossed a lateral pass to Magner to the left. Magner, who had 13 catches for 168 yards, then fired a pass over the middle to a wide open Jarrett at the goa) line - but he dro~ped the touchdown. On the next play, Oh1o S~a~e linebacker A.J. Hawk intercepted Harns pass to end the threat. 'The Buckeyes went 7-0 in games decid~d by seven or fewer points a ~ear ago whtle goinll 14-0 and winning theu first national : title m 34 years.

Maurice Hall carried 19 times for I07 yards and Ross added 22 carries for 94 yards. AD: No legal action ~gainst Clarett COLUMBUS (AP)- Ohio State athletic director Andy Geiger said Saturday that a legal maneuver by Maurice Clarett will not affect the school's effort to have the suspended tailback reinstated. · Claret! has asked Franklin County Common Pleas Court to allow his attorneys to take sworn statements from umversity officials . about a charge that he lied to police about the value of items stolen from a car. The information will help determine if Claret! should file a lawsuit charging that his rights were violated, according to a complaint filed Thursday. · The university, by withhold- . ing information, subjected Clarett to prosecution and possibly deprived him of his property rights under the U.S. Constitution, the complaint said. ~ Geiger said he was not surprised by the complaint. "I don' t know that it's allainst the school. I think it's dtscovery in a trial situation. I think they're trying to build a defense and that's understand~ble. It's not alarming," Geiger said before Ohio State's game at Ohio Stadium against Bowling Green. "It's just part of the system. They ' re building a defense for the misdemeanor charge that ~as filed by the city attorney. I don't see it as anything beyond that." Percy Squire and Lloyd Pierre-Louis, the lawyers who filed the complaint, did not return phone messages seeking comment Saturday. The city attorney and campus police accused Clarett of riling an exaggerated theft report with campus police in . April after a car he was borrowing was broken into. The police report said Cl\Sh and stereo equipment worth thousands of dollars was taken from the car, owned by a used car dealership. Claret! has pleaded innocent to a misdemeanor falsification charge, which has a maXimum penalty of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. · Claret! was suspended this season from the national champion Buckeyes after Ohio State said he violated NCAA bylaws by receiving Improper benefits and lying to jnvesttgators. · An Ohio State compliance officer told The Cofumbus Dispatch that a' Warren businessman gave Clarett a $500 check and paid at least $1 ,000 of his cell phone bills. Geiger said the $500 came from more than one check and confirmed that "a cell phone or cell phones are part of this." : Bobby Dellimuti, a 38-yearold caterer, gave the financial assistance to Clarett last year, said Heather Lyke, who oversees NCAA compliance for Phio State. • Dellimuti is a central figure in the NCAA investigation of Claret!.

The students will be in Wales for about three months, or one semester. as part of an exchange program with Trinity College. They will also tour Ireland. This is the second group of students Rio Grande has sent to Wales to study and experience the culture. "In add it ion to studying in some really great classes. the students are encouraged ta do some personal traveling," said Kara Lewis, director of the Madog Center For Welsh Studies at Rio Grande. Lewis and other Rio Grande officials have been working on the exchange program for the last four years. The first group from Rio Grande went to Wales last fall, and that trip was a big success. The students attend classes at Trinity College in Wales, and stude"nts from Trinity College will spend time on the Rio Grande campus during the next semester. The Rio Grande students involved in the exchange program were chosen by a panel. of Rio Crande otricials based on several guidelines. including academic qualifications and personality. "I think that all of the students benefit from being in the exchange program, maybe in different ways." Lewi s said. "Some grow academicall y, while some grow personally. They learn about another country and another group of people, while they are also learning about America and themselves." The students involved in the exchange program last year said that they experienced a lot on the trip and were thanklui for the -opportunity. Lewis and other Rio Grande officials are pleased that their students are in Wales now, and excited about all the future opportunities for Rio Grande students in the exchange programs. 'The students gain confidence and expand their horizons," Lewis said. "They leam that the world has much to offer them, and that they too can offer the world a great deal." The live Rio Grande students currently in Wales for the exchange program come for varied backgrounds tmd interests. Molly Blankenship, daughter of Paul and Mary Blankenship, is a junior intervention specialist (education) major from Jackson . She hopes to work as an intervention specialist teacher on a U.S . military base. Landon Coate, son of Daniel Coate and Kathleen LeVan, is a junior computer science major from Bellefontaine. David Hall, son of Gerald Hall and Judy Spiller, is an art major from Stoutsville. Waylon Strickland, son of Larry and Zona Stric,kland, is a senior from Oak Hill. Strickland is an education and language arts major who hopes to become · a high school English teacher. Andrea Unger, daughter of James Jr. and Tina Unger, is junior from Wellston. Unger is an Early • Childhood Education major minoring in psychology. All of the students have excelled academically at Rio Grande and. are campus leaders, involved in numerous student activities.

Well, who could resist? Mathematical directives begin the hunt for the Eugecalibur - a sword hidden somewhere within the kingdom. Using a variety of wooden block shapes cut to order by master carpenters. brothers Geo and Sym of Metry (insert chuckle here), the reader is challenged, in a good way, to apply the math- Diane NaderEpling ematical equation that goes something like . . . count faces , corner points. and edges; add number of faces and points, then subtract the number of edges. You should end up with the number two. However, any shape which computes to "two" shall not be where the sword rests. The reader learns that both the cylinder and the cone are still . in contention, for neither shape possesses both straight lines and points. A point that had certainly been lost on me for many years, I dare say. Along the way. the reader is treated to numerous mathematical interrogations, cleverly couched in the medieval period. Brightly, painted illustration s by Wayne Geehan of the King James Bible depict vi llagers and mathematical diagrams with sweeping, finger-painted movements that instantly catch the reader's eye and holds court throughout the story. The author, .an elementary school teacher of the right kind and who has written three other books in this series, garnered the idea for Sir Cumference while visiting medieval castles in England. "Sir Cumference and the First Round Table. Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi, and Sir Cumference and the Great Knight of Angleland" are all sure to engage parents and students alike. A good test (in this era of test once, test twice , test a mi Ilion times over) for determining which books behave as good teachers is whether they fulfill my three e's, engage, excite and endure.

Stephen King receives ·honorary National Book Award NEW YORK (AP) Stephen King doesn't ·have the Iiterary reputation of Philip Roth or Arthur Miller, but now all three authors have something in common: an honorary National Book Award for lifetime achievement. King. brand-name writer, master of the horror story and e-book pioneer, is receiving this year's medal for Distingui shed Contributions . to American Letters. The prize, worth $10,000, was announced Monday by the National Book Foundation. a nonprofit organization that sponsors the awards. "This is probably the most exciting thing to happen to me in my career as a writer since the sale of my first book in 1973," King said in a statement issued by the foundation. 'Til return the cash award to the National Book Foundation for the support of their many educational and literary outreach programs for children and youth across the country; the Medal I will keep and treasure for the rest of my life." King. who turns 56 next Sunday, will be presented the award at the annual National Book Awards ceremony, on Nov. 19. Among the world's most famous authors, he has both enjoyed the benefits and endured the biases of being a "genre" writer. He is a beloved. even iconic storyteller among the general public, I· whom he has memorably terri" .tied in "OUTie," "The Shining" and other best sellers. But he has never been a contender for any of the major literary prizes, including the National Book Award. His · biggest honor before Monday was an 0 . Henry prize in 1996 for the short story "The Man in the Black Suit," originally published in The New Yorker. 'Tm pleased that they're giving it to him," says Ray Bradbury, author of such science fiction classics as "The Martian Chronicles" and recipient in 2000 of the honorary medal from the book foundation. "I don't think they should exclude any special genre, or they'd have to eliminate Edgar Allan Poe, wouldn't they?" King has written dozens of books and even defenders acknowledge that not all are worth reading. But they praise him as an exciting, essential writer with a deep feeling for the American psyche. "I think he's a force for good ·in the world," says Michael Chabon, author of the Pulitzer Prize winning novel "The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Cia ." • "~eople like writers to stay in the boxes . The 20th century was supposedly about breaking down those barriers between high art and popular culture and yet it still feels like there's some kind of transgression when Stephen King gets a National Book Award medal." Established in 1988, the honorary award cites not only literary merit, but "a lifetime of service." The Maine-based writer h11s provided scholar, ships for the state's high school students, and made numerous charitable contributions through a foundation he runs with his wife, Tabitha . He was an early advocate of e-books, and caused a sensation in 2000 when his 66page e-story, "Riding the Bullet," received more than , 400,000 orders in the first 24 hours after it was made available online. He also shares one quality with many literary writers: a dislike of corporate-controlled publishing. In lhe current issue · of Entertainment Weekly, for which he is a featured columnist, King celebrates a novel available only in audio· form, Ron McLarty's '"The Memory of Running," and attacks publishers for not signing it up. "Publishing houses, once proudly independent, are today little more than corporate wampum heads, their cultural clout all but gone," writes King, who is pub- . lished by Simon & Schuster, a division of Viacom Inc. McLarty has since received several offers and should have an agreement soon, said his agent, Jeff Kleinman. . $1JI1G/~y: 1Jr[1~s-Sevtine/ . • ' . t' ·• .. ·.

Bible,' Adam Nicolson takes us · bac k to Jaco bean E 1 d h · f ng an , t e ume o Shakespeare and Bacon, to the reign of King James the Sixth of Scotland and First of England . Who was King James and how did the Bible bearing his name come about? In 1603 Queen Elizabeth was dying. England was full of newness and potential, "England was a cauldron which had not yet been allowed to boil." James Stuart had been king of Scotland since he was a year old, where his· mother. Mary Queen of Scots. had been deposed. His father had been murdered. He was christened a Catholic and raised by Presbyterians. He was a trophy for the rival factions in Scotland, so was accustamed to conflict-. He was an unlikely hero: Ugly, red-haired, paleskinned, impatient, clever, nervous, intelligent. He hoped for peace. He took as his motto, 'Blessed are the peacemakers.' from the Sermon on the Mount. He loved hunting. He learned Greek and Latin and French. He was described as an 'old young man.' he was welcomed lavishly in England Beverly Gettles with pomp and ceremony. Then the plague came. People thought it hit the cities because they were wicked and disgusting. It particularly attacked the slums. People thought it this was the will of God punishing evil. There was a continuing religious riv. airy between the Anglicans (Church of England) and the Puritans. James called a conference on translating the Bible once more for a text which unite his empire. It took seven years for some 50 scholars 10 create the new translation. Much of the translation of William Tyndale, who . was executed in 1536 for compiling the text was Latin into English, was used. There were six companies of translators, each headed by a director. They were chosen from the foremost Biblical Scholars of their time, from positions at Oxford and Cambridge, from Canterbury and Essex and Winchester. James wanted no Presbyterians on the committees. The Presbyterians believed that the kings were subject to God's judgment, and thus to the judgment of the church. The Anglicans accepted the king as Head of the Church. The Puritans wanted. all vestiges of the Roman Catholic Church purged from the Church of England. They objected to the use of rings in marriage, the prominence of the crucifix, the use of the surplice (robe) for the priest and any other pomp and ceremony not specifical- · ly mentioned in the New . Testament. The Committees labored from 1604-11 , not without power struggles and nincor. The author places the work within the political and reli gious struggles of the times . . He provides biographical . sketches of some of the major players, including Lancelot Andrewes . chief translator, who spent five hours every morning in prayer, 'weeping for the miserableness of his soul.' The translators were a mixed bunch" Puritans, drunkards. scholars. hotheads and ofher eccentrics. The work they created defined their times . 'The age's landmark was not a painting or a piece of archilecture, but a book.' Some of those same Puritan s who created such a problem for King James became our first settlers a bit later arriving in 1620 at Plymouth. The King James Bible remains the most influential Bible translation of all time. Its style is elegant and musical. It is the foundation of the English-speaking world and appears in the work of so many recognized authqrs, from Shakespeare to William Faulkner, from Martin Luther King Jr. to Reynolds Price. For those of us who grew up with the King James Bible. reading the Psalms and Genesis and the Christmas story remain a source of joy. It is simply irreplaceable as a thing of beauty and majesty. • Could there be a mole leaking · the winner of CBS' "Survivor''? NEW YORK (AP) - An offshore bookie who takes wagers on the outcome of CBS' "Survivor" decided not to take bets on Thursday, suspicious that someone who knows the winner is spreading inside information. The reality series, which premiered its seventh edition from Pearl Island on Thursday, has been relatively free of security problems despite an lnlemet cottage industry in guessing winners and losers. The Antigua-based company, BetWWTS.com, has taken bets from as many as I ,000 people for past editions of "Survivor," consistently television's most popular reality game. The company rarely does any actipn with "Survivor" before the show gets on the air. Betting usually heats up after the show has been on for at least a month and viewers get to know the characters, said Simon Noble, the company's CEO. Yet in the past few days, the company took more than 15 bets on the same contestant, all from people who lived near each other in Vancouver, he said. The company shut the game down. 1 Noble wouldn't identify the contestant they were betting on. but said it was a woman who lives near Vancouver. The CBS Web site identifies one contestant, Sandra DiazTwine, as living in Fort Lewis, Wash. She's a 29-year-<>ld U.S. Anny veteran who now wooo as an office assistant. She's married with two children. On the Web site, DiazTwine says she believes she's a contender to win "Survivor" because of her ability to improvise and knowledge of hunting. CBS spokesman Chris Ender pointed out that although filming for the "Pearl Island" game is complete, the results are sealed. "The truth is, only ("Survivor" executive producer) Mark Burnett and a couple of CBS executives know who won," he said. As for whether someone is trying to profit on inside information, Ender said, "we'll know for sure in December." Twice before the bookmaker has had to suspend betting on a reality game. Once, for ABC's "The Bachelor," it received a large number of bets from the bachelor's hometown on the woman he eventually · chose as the winner. For the Amazon edition of "Survivor" last spring, the company suspended betting a month before the televised finale because of a concentration of wagers on two · contestants, 1 including the eventual winner, 21-year,old swimsuit model Jenna Morasca. Another offshore bookmaker, BoDog.com, suspended betting last spring after allegedly finding at least two CBS employees betting on the show's outcome.

"Everybody recognizes that John loved that show.... He'd have wanted the show to continue," Lloyd Braun, chairman of ABC Entertainment Television Group, told a telephone news conference. Braun and ABC Entertainment President Susan Lyne said the sitcom will debut next Tuesday as planned and that the network will air the three episodes Ritter filmed before his death last week. After that, the series costarring Katey Sa~al will go into repeats wh1le writers retool it and production starts. No date was given for when the show will return to the air. Ritter, making a TV~ series comeback 25 years after he starred in "Three's Company," became ill on the "8 Simple Rules" set and died Thursday of an undetected heart r.roblem. He was 54. It hasn t been decided if the death of Ritter's character, Paul Hennessy, will mirror what happened to the actor, Todd Smith and Heidi Legar ABC executives said. Ritter's series, which preJoseph's Cathedral in Columbus, Ohio. They miered last year with solid will reside in Westerville, Ohio. ratings, was considered a key part of ABC 's comeback effort and anchored its Tuesday night lineup of family comedies. ABC knows it's facing a difficult task, rebuilding a comedy on a death and especially that of the series' star, network executives acknowledged. "We' re going to take it an episode at a time," Lyne said. While the idea of recasting Ritter's role was quickly rejected, new characters will be added at sOjlle point, the ABC executives said. Although Braun lauded Saga\ as a "fantastic actress" capable of taking on a greater role in the series, he said it would become more of an ensemble production. Ritter's widow, actress Amy Yasbeck, and the series' cast and producers supported . the decision to keep going, Braun said. An ABC News tribute to Ritter was to air Tuesday night. A similar episode in television history came when comic. Redd Foxx died in 1991 , after making seven episodes of his comeback series on CBS, "The Royal. Family." The show returned: without him six months after his death, but lasted only a· few episodes. Comedian Freddie Prinze, star of "Chico and the Man," committed suicide in 1977 in the third year of the popular NBC sitcom. The network cast a new, younger Chico bu\ the show was gone in a year: The rarity of such occurrences makes it difficult to predict how "8 Simple Rules" will fare, Braun said. "I think: it will be a show we' ll be. proud to put on," he said. Each of the first three episodes already shot will start with a special introduction, featuring the cast members. The next new show will deal with Paul Hennessy's death. ' "Future episodes will take viewers into the Hennessy . household as they experience the loss of a father and con• struct a new life together/'· said Braun.

The meal, including Cheddar biscuits, serves six. An equally significant number is that of the cooking team: two. The dual-chef plan and its basic setup are elaborated in the Pences new cookbook, "Caprial and John's Kitchen : Recipes for Cooking Together" (Ten Speed Press. 2003, $35). These two accomplished cooks run Caprial's Bistro, where Caprial is executive chef. in Portland, Ore., operate a cooking school next door, and appear in the public television series "Cooking With John and Caprial." Caprial has written seven other cookbooks, which adds to the credibility of this new one, a companion volume to the TV show. The theme of both book and show is sharing and enjoying time in the kitchen with a partner. The full range of dishes offered, with meal menus, includes restaurant items as well as the Pences' homecooking favorites. Plus, of course, plenty of tips about dividing kitchen duties between two cooks. For this menu, they say, the corn salad is served at room temperature and should be finished and cooling before the tomatoes are fried allowing both cooks to share the tomato preparation. The Pences · wine suggestion for the meal: A light red wine with a bit of fruit, like an Italian nebbiolo, would be an excellent end-of-summer choice for drinking with this meal.

(AP)- The 2003 U.S. apple harvest is under way, and the U.S. Apple Association estimates the total crop will be about 216.2 million bushels. That's about 94 apples for every man, woman and child in the United States, they say. Apples are grown commercially in 36 states, with the top growing states being Washington, New York and Michigan. Among apple varieties available are some new ones including the Braebum, the Cameo, the Honeycrisp and the Pink Lady - as well as the classics. The six . traditional favorites, the association says, are the Red and Gold Delicious, Fuji , Gala, Granny Smith, Mcintosh and Rome apples. Research suggests health benefits from apple eating. "While we still have a lot to learn about how food can help up maintain good health, what we know about apples so far .suggests 'an apple a day' might in fact be good practice," says Dr. Dianne Hyson, a registered dietitian and researcher at U.C.-Davis, who has studied apples' health benefits.

Pittsburgh gallery shows drama contained in ra(e Audubon prints: PITTSBURGH (AP) From an eagle with its talons snapped around a little white bunny to a . hawk with its beak dripping with blood. one thing about John James Audubon 's birds becomes clear: You wouldn' t want some of these feathered friends splashing around in the backyard bird bath. Setting out to depict every kind of American bird, Audubon spent more than a decade painting more than a thousand of them, from crows and parakeets to turkeys and cormorants. He took a novel approach - for the 19th century - that led him to show his ornithological subjects in a mostly natural light, characterizing them in moments of sweetness, song or survival. Audubon's sweep between subtle rendition and colorful drama is appropriately at the center of a new show at the University of Pittsburgh's University Art Gallery, beginning Thursday. The exhibit features 62 of the 435 rare, restored prints The 2004 Ford f.150 Lariat is shown in this undated promotional photo. The new F-150 has a from the artist-naturalist's stiffer frame, improved brakes, more towing capacity, quieter ride, more V8 power, more interior "Birds of America.'' With little wall room to Regular Cab and Super Cab room and deeper pickup beds than its predecessor.

It's not just because the new F-150 has a stiffer frame, improved brakes, more towing capacity, quieter ride, more V8 power, more interior Regular Cab and Super Cab room and deeper pickup beds than its predecessor. The new F-150 also is a trendsetter, dropping twodoor base models and instead giving every base Regular Cab a body with four doors - two of them small, rearhinged, access doors. The new F-150 also is a trendsetter in the way it mixes and matches pieces of the dashboard inside and grille and bumper treatments outside to customize different appearances for each style of truck buyer. And it's all done at the factory. There's another new element, too: A Super Cab model with a shortened, 5.5foot-long pickup box that's easier to fit inside a garage. "We have a huge owner base· and we used our customer insight to help us anticipate the 'next big thing in the market," ' said Matt DeMars, executive director for Tough Trucks at Ford Motor Co. Starting manufacturer's suggested retail price, including destination charge, is $22,0 I 0 for a base XL Regular Cab 4X2 with 4.6liter V8 . The test F-150 Lariat 4X4 SuperCrew brought all sorts of question s and admiring looks from current F-150 owners. One owner of a 2001 F-150 wondered out loud why he didn't wait to get this new one. It's not that the old F-150 - which continues to be sold as the "2004 Heritage F-150" - was bad. Indeed, for sorne 20 years, the · F-150 has ranked as the best-selling vehicle - car or truck - in the United States. It also has been the best-selling truck in the United States for 25 years. And the F-150 is critical for Ford, actounting for some 23 percent of the automaker's U.S. sales. Competition is becoming the fiercest ever in the fullsize truck segment in this country, with Nissan soon to launch its first entry; the 2004 Titan , and Chevrolet's Silverado being offered with discounts. _ For all the impressive upgrades given the 2004 F150, the exterior styling remains familiar - maybe too familiar. cabin with door seals, thicker Sure, the old front styling front-door windows and is emboldened in the new noise-and-vibration-ab~orb­ model as the hood is raised ing engine mounts. - it's also weight-saving A 231-horsepower, 4.6aluminum now - and grilles liter Trion V8 remains the are different. base F-150 engine.

"It was new. It was different. It was very exciting tor viewers." But it was not cheap. From 1827 to 1838, Audubon sold his engraved, hand-colored prints through a publisher as a subscripiion series, with customers receiving five of the 26inch-by-40-inch double elephant folio-size prints at a time. To complete the four- volume set, the cost was about $1,000 - a huge amount at the time, but probably a bargain compared to its worth now.

How the concrete makes its way to your home is another story. Although most project~ are expressed in square feet, when buying concrete, vou measure in cubic yards- a project's length, width and depth determine the amount needed Multiply length by width (to find square li!et). . multiply that by depth or thickness (for cubic feet) and divide by 27 (the number of cubic feet in a cubic yard) to detennine how much concrete (in cubic yards) is required Building material suppliers after free conversion chans for the !llaiiKhallenged Or you can buy inexpensive "enter your dimensions" hand-held project calculators; and, there are project estimators on the Internet. Once you've figured how much concrete you' II need, determine how to get it to the job. Concrete is a mixture of sand, gravel, water and Portland cement. It can be obtained in three ways: separate dry ingredients that you mix on site, premixed in the sack where you just add water, and ready-mixed from a batch plant and delivered by truck. There is a variation to the latter where you can hau I a small amount of ready-mix material using a trailer provided by the batch plant or a rental yard. Of the three methods, raw materials mixed on site are used the least frequently due to the availability of premixed product. Small projects such as pouring a step or stoop, setting a few fence posts or making small repairs can best be accomplished using the . premixed sack product. Premixed bags are reasonably priced. They're avail- able in two sizes: 60-rund for fhe "short load" (I 0 yards (average $1.35-$1.80 and full load minus 2 yards 8 90-pound ($2-$2.30). There yards "short" X $17 per yard are also a number of special average) - and now totals mixes for setting fence posts around $265. With assorted and mailboxes. They're sold fees added (environmental in 40- and 50-pound bags in impact, fuel surcharge, sales two "no-mix" formats: l) tax, etc.), the final cost is you dump the concrete into about $295. For this project, the hole, then add water, and ordering ready-mix would 2) the reverse - first the cost from $55 ·to $120 more water. then the concrete. than premixed - depending Takin$ on a path, patio or on where you buy your bags other s1zable project using and rent your mixer.

For example, a l 0-foot While some think a cement X I0-foot X 6-inch patio truck goes from site to site need~ 1.85 cubic yards of dumping concrete until it is concrete or about two yards, empty, this is not how ·it with waste. Using 60-pound works. Rather, each batch js bags that yield 1-half cubic individually formulated and foot per would require I00 mixed for a specific use. The bags. The concrete will set number of "sacks" of cement faster than you can mix and used per yard of concrete pour it, and you'll end up inlluences the strength of the with a poor pour and a nasty finish (unless you are willing fully cured product. For to work in phases over time). example, "five-sack" mix is Ready-mix is a no-brainer stronger than "four-sack," for mid- to large projects, but and so on . Also, ready-mix what about cost? If you use concrete must be off-loaded 60-pound bags, concrete for within 90-minutes of being a patio this size ranges from mixed or within 300 revolu$135 to $180. But you'll tions of the truck's tank need to rent a mixer, which whichever comes first. Thus, adds another $40 to $60 per a supplier's location is a key day. While 'ready-mix consideration.

Well, it's been awhile, but I'm back. I've been pretty busy lately. Several projects have been takinjl up my time, but hopefully thmgs have settled down a bit. I first want to thank everyone for their support. Everywhere I go people keep asking me when I'm going to write another column, so .. . here $oes, I hope you're not disappmnted! Actually,! really don't have much to complain about this week . Mike, (the boyfriend) is a truck driver and is gone a great deal of the time, but, we did $et to spend one quiet evemng at home together this week. I dido 't have to cover any night meetings or events (a rarity), so I offered to make dinner (After a chuckle of disbelief, Mike said 0 K.) . · Believe it or not, I can cook. Just because I choose not to doesn't mean I don't have the ability - the means, of course, is a different story. After volunteering to cook (at 4:30p.m.) I began to realize that, like Mother Hubbard, this old woman's cupboards were bare. The half gallon of unopened milk that expired on the sixth of August and the loaf of moldy bread that I had on hand (really, that's not a joke) certainly wouldn't be suitable, so I made a mad dash to the store. In the fever of domestic bliss t, I decided that ovenroasted Cornish game hen. wild rice. and honey glazed carrots would be a great dinner for the two of us ... yummy. (Trust me, it sounded like a good .idea at the time). Of course, it wasn't until I was already on my way home (at 5 p.m.) that I realized that the hens were frozen (Mike was scheduled to be home at 7 p.m.), and, after my microwave oven died several months earlier, I had opted not to ~et another one. So, alas, no qutck way to thaw them. I decided that the best way to unthaw them quickly was to boil them. So, while the ch.ickens were boiling, I tried to keep myself busy by doing laundry. washing dishes and sweepmg the floor (yes, I cleaned - my mother is gasping as we speak). . After 45 minutes of boiling, I decided that I would try to fry them in the roaster for a few minutes before sticking them in the oven. I had seen this done on the Food Network, something about crispy skin ... ? So, I thought back to all of the "professional" techniques I picked up from "Emeril Live," and placed the hens on a bed of lemon slices (to promote air flow underneath) , covered them with olive oil and herbs, and placed ttJem in my ultra-expensive enameled cast-iron Le Crueset roaster (just like Emeril's, · except mine has been used a whopping three times}, and began frying. At 6: 15, I decided that the frying process was just too messy. so the birds went directly to the oven and I began the rice and the carrots. Thankfully, at 6:30 Mike calls and said he would be a few minutes late, and asks if l need anything from the store (What a sweetheart.). Mighty MAC sends message to nation, Bt .

Edwards gets Rutland's "stamp" of approval BY BRIAN J. REED breed@mydallysentilnel.com RUTLAND - When it comd to running the U.S. Post Office in Rutland, Margaret Edwards is qecidedIy "old school," and her customers are happy about that. Edwards has been postmaster in Rutland since 1982, and before that, was clerk at the post office. While in many ways, postal re@ulations have become stncter, and the service has, in other ways. taken a back seat to stringent regulations, Edwards still prides herself on small-town, old-fashioned customer service. "I enjoy talking to people and being of service to them," Edwards said. "Some peo~le don't agree, but work· mg m the post office is a ser- vice career, and that's what I enjoy the most about it." Edwards is especially devoted to ber older customers, who sometimes need an extra minute or two of her time. "One of my customers can't see to open her post office box anymore, so I help her, even though I'm not really supposed to,'' Edwards admitted. And how does Edwards deal with the ocassional impertinent customer? Believe it or not, she said she has none. "I've had maybe one impolite customer since I've been here," Edward said. "Almost all of my customers are nice. But remember,! know my customers - in fact, I've watched a lot of them grow up." Edwards and her husband, Larry, have a cattle farm just three miles outside of town. They are the parents of three sons: Rick, Dan and Michael, and have three grandchildren. When she's not selling stan\ps, weighing packages and sorting mail , she's an active member of the Rutland United Methodist Church, and the Rutland Friendly Gardeners, who help her each month in decorating a seasonal window at the front of the post office. She also helps the group in the community, hanging Christmas wreaths and planting !lowers to beautify the community and its downtown park. Edwards has received offers from the postal service to move to bigger operations, but she '11 have none of it. "I have nothing against As Rutland 's postmaster, Margaret Edwards still hand stamps small towns, but I'm going letters and provides other "old·fashloned" service to the com· to stay here," Edwards said. munity. She knows all of her customers, and enjoys helping them in any way she can. (Brian J. Reed ) "This is home."
