U}Hlll occi\sio11, CHESHIRE- Cheshi re officials are demanding Ohio Environmental Protection Agency conduct a "thorough review" of plans to build a synthetic fu els operation at the Gen. James M. G~vin Power Plant. Mayor Tom Reese sai~ that unless . OEPA proves the synfuel facility planned by DTE Energy Services, a subsidiary of Detroit Edison, will not harm village residents or the environment, the state should not allow the facility to be built. DTE has applied through the agency for a combined draft air and surface water permit to install. A public hearin g was held in Cheshire on Feb. 12, and OE PA extended the public comment on the application until March 1, two weeks later than the original deadline. . During the hearing, Reese asked for a 30-day ex tension so more could be learned about the operation and DTE. Cheshire residents, R eese maintained, "have a right to know if their environment and th eir health might be affected by the plane. "This basic right has been denied us, however, by Ohio EPA's failure to condu ct a thorough review of the synthetic fuel plant and its failure to find out whether it poses any una cceptable environmental and health risks," he said.

"The OEPA's inability or unwillingness to answer those fundamental questions is not reassuring;• he said. OEPA spokesman Jim Leach said Friday that DTE's application will be fully reviewed by staff at the agency's southeast district office in Logan. "We are doing a thorough review of the application, as we do with . any of them," Leach said.

"The agency believes it has responded to his concerns," he said. "Ifhe has any questions, he can certainly contact us.".

"In effect," village officials said in their public comment to OEPA.

Last month, a federal study of Gavin emissions said the two pollutants pose "a public health hazard." U.S. Rep.

"I . am hoping OEPA .will heed Mayor Reese's request . ·a nd follow through," the Lucasville Democrat said. "I think the mayor and the residents feel that what they've experienced is sufficient reason to question what may happen in the future if this new synthetic fuel operation is put in without a thorough study of its impact on public health." Strickland, along with Reese and residents, applaud AEP's move to reduce hazards posed by the plume. But he added that "at some point the health and safety of these residents 1Ilust take priority."

She had used Columbia's robot arm last weekend to capture the 43foot, 24,500-pound telescope and anchor it in the cargo bay.

Press freedom may have to yield in criminal _cases Vanessa Leggett got out of jail on Jan. 4 and filed a petition for review in the Supreme Court on Jan. 23. Five will get you 10 that the court will deny her appeal by the end of March, and that will be that. But not quite. The case raises recurring questions of press freedom. Ms. Leggett may have rights, but a U.S. attorney surely has power. When the writer and the D.A. arm-wrestled last summer, the government won hands down. The facts are not especially important. In 1997, Doris Angleton was found murdered in her River Oaks home in Houston. Police charged that her husband, Robert Angleton, had hired his brother Roger to commit the crime. While the case was pending, Roger ·committed suicide in the -Harris County jail. Robert was tried inTexas state courts for his role in che murder and acquitted. The' pos~ibility remained for federal prosecution on other charges. Vanessa Leggett is an aspiring author. She set out four years ago co write a book about the Angleton murder. It struck her as a swell story, with elements of gambling, sex, high society and big money. She did what authors do: She began interviewing and tape-recording persons who could put meat on the bare bones of fact. She promised to protect her confidential sources. Her investigation attracted the covetous eye of Assistant U.S. Attorney Terry Clark. He figured that her notes might save him a good deal of rrouble. He did what prosecutors do. In December 2000 he summoned her to appear before a federal grand jury. She responded obediently to his first summons, answered all the questions puc to her and appeared to be cooperative. .But last James Kilpatrick COLUMNIST As a reporter, editor and TV commentator, I have been part of"the press" for more than 60 years. I have read -· and read again - every Supreme Court opinion touching upon the issues raised in the Leggett case. My conclusion' We of the press, whoever we are, have no more right than so many bricklayers to withhold information from a grand jury. The gove'rnment's power of subpoena trumps any right or "privilege" we may assert, short of the right to avoid selfincrimination. Ms. Leggett is going to lose this one. Granted, there is a body of law that may shield journalists (however they are defined) from divulging confidential sources, but the cited cases are more an emanation oflaw than a body oflaw. In theory, we may be required to testify in a criminal case only if our evidence is highly material and, cannot be ?brained by other means. F1ve of the 1 t federal circuits have acknowledged a "qualified and limited" privilege for investigative journalists, but the 5th Circuit, where the Leggett case arose, bluntly acknowledges that it "takes a narrow view of the journalist's privilege in criminal cases, particularly in grand jury proceedings." Those of us who write for a living are bound to sympathize with Vanessa Leggett. She stayed injail for 168 days in def'ense of a principle - the principle that freedom of the .press may not be abridged by, government. It is a great. principle, but in criminal cases it has to yield to another great principle, that no man is above the law. Not even us. (Letters to Mr. Kilpatrick should be sent in care of chis newspaper, or by email to kilpatjj(at)aol.com.) Suspect's relatives arrested LAFAYETTE, Ga. (AP) - Relatives of the man accused of dumping hundreds of corpses on the grounds of a crematory have been charged with lying on a death certificate. . Tommy Ray Marsh Sr. and Clara Marsh and their daughter, , RlJames Marsh, all were arrested on Friday. Tommy Ray and Clara Marsh are the parenis of Ray Marsh, who is being held on 174 copnts of theft by deception, accused , of discarding bodies he was paid to cremate and in some cases passing off dirt or cement powder as human remains. Ray Marsh, 28, took over the Tri-State Crematory in northern Georgia from his parents in 1996. summer, when Clark came back to the well for more, she-· balked. Under the mantle of press fre edom, she refused to name her sources. On July 20, a federal judge found her guilty of civil contempt . and packed her off co jail. Clark's final subpoena directed her to give the grand jury all of her taperecorded interviews with 34 named individuals, including originals, copies and transcripts. She would not be permitted to keep even a single copy for herself.This was a fishing expedition, not with hook and line, but with a dragnet. Four years of hard work, not to mention her promises of confidentiality, were at stake. The Constitution says that freedom of "the press" shall not be "abridged." Every word counts. Is Vanessa Leggett a part ~f"the press"? Who can say? She is a schoolteacher. Her body of published work, as the 5th U.S. Circuit has coldly observed, "consists of a single article in an FBI publication and one fictional short story:· She has no contract for publication of a book on the Angleton case.

' Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said a fierce battle to crush ai-Qaida and Taliban holdouts in the east of the country could be finished in "seven, eight, 10 days." The fight entered its eighth day Saturday. But even if coalition forces killed every last enemy fighter they're hunting in' the Shah-e-Kot valley, there are others hiding in other places. "We've got a lot of cleaning up to do;' Rumsfeld said F,riday in an interview with Fox News Channel. The assault by coalition warplanes and troops from a half-dozen nations is the biggest ground battle in the 5-month-old war and included the deadliest single day yet for US: troops. Eight Americans and three Mghans died in the first days of the mission last weekend, indtiding seven s·unday night or early Monday. Even after this battle's over, the coalition's work in Mghanistan will be far from finished, officials said. Though former Taliban rulers fled their last stronghold in Kandahar in early December - and al-Qaida terrorists fled theirs in Tara Bora shortly after - the Defense Department has said ever since that the enemy remained in varying-sized "pockets of resistance" elsewhere. This week's ground attack-was meant to crush a number of pockets that ·reconnaissance units had been watching for weeks in a 60-square-mile area near the town of Gardez. • With more troops on the way, some 2,200 soldiers from a half-dozen nations united for Operation Anaconda, named for the snake that kills by squeezing its prey in its coils. Some coalition troops are fighting small groups of enemy fighters with the help of bombing, while others have formed an· ever-tightening circle around ihe perimeter in hopes of killing anyone who flees. The assault was against an estimated · 1,000 Taliban, ai-Qaida and members of the Islamic Movement ofUzbekistan, with only a couple hundred still left Friday, said Brig. Gen.John W.

"This award means m~re than any other I have ever received," added Giuliani, who was named Time Magazine's "Person of the Year" in December. Nancy Reagan said Giuliani's calm, forceful leadership in the days after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks made him the obvious choice.

(AP) - Sun Microsystems Inc. said Friday it is suing rival Microsoft for more than S1 billion because the software giant made the Windows XP operating system incompatible with Sun's Java programming language. Accusing Microsoft of "extensive anticompetitive conduct," Sun charged that Microsoft forced other companies to distribute products that do not work with Java, effectively crippling Java and inhibiting its SJOwth. Microsoft spokesman Matt Pilla declined to comment. This case comes less than two months after another fierce competitor, AOL Time Warner, sued Microsoft over its dominance in the Web browser market. In its lawsuit, which was to be filed in federal court in San Jose, Sun asks that Microsoft be forced to distribute Sun's latest version of Java with Windows XP and the Internet Explorer browser.

They erased a five-point deficit and pulled away; the Golden Eagles never got in sync. Logan turned it up in the second half, finishing with 26 points, but it was the defense that made the difference by holding Marquette to 33.8 percent shooting from the field. Cordell Henry, who scored 24 and 27 points in Marquette's first two tournament .games, managed only 11 points on 3-of-15 shooting. Dwyane Wade led Marquette with 16 points.

Two minutes later, <;:incinnati's Jason Maxiell got an intentional foul for hitting Henry in the abdomen, knocking him to the floor. The teams split their season series. Marquette ended the Bearcats' 20-game winning streak with a 7 4- 60 win in Milwaukee on Feb. 2, and Cinciqnati won the rematch 63-62 on Feb. 22. Marquette got the best of it early Saturday, forcing Huggins to change strategies. He raged at his ineffective front-line players as Marquette got 11 of the first I 4 rebounds and pulled ahead 18-13. Jon Harris scored inside and had a tip to complete a seven-point spurt. The Bearcats then came out in a 2-3 zone that brought Marquette's offense to a halt. The Golden Eagles kept trying to force the ball inside against the packed-in zone and made only 4 of 20 shots the rest of the half. With Logan missing six of his seven shots in the first half, it fell to Field Williams to get the offense going.

He also Labonte's nicknames is "The Iceman" because ofhis steely nerves and lack of outward emotion. "He was frustrated and it was difficult to watch," said his· brother, Bobby, the 2000 series champion. "It's no fun to just go out there and run without a chance to win and thats what he'd been going through. It was hard, but he's so much more energized this year and really thinks things are going to tum around." The slate is wiped clean this year for Labonte, thanks to one personnel move on his Hendrick Motorsports team. Jim Long replaced Gary DeHart as crew chief, and while the results might take time to show up on the race track, they've been immediately evident in attitude and energy. . When Labonte rolled his Chevrolet off the truck at Daytona last month, the car was good enough to post the seventh-fastest overall speed in the first round of qualifying. He then finished fifth in a qualifying race, setting him up for the 11th starting position in the Daytona 500. . He had a strong car in the season-opening race, good enough for probably a top 10 fin~- but was involved in the typical restrictor- logged a 16th p1ace finish at North Carolina Speedway and a dis.1ppointing 38th last weekend at Las Vegas. But Labonte won't be aeterred and is confident the good times are yet to come. "I've started year; recently where I just knew we weren't going to be very good," he said "You don't ever want that kind of season, but sometimes that makes you tougher, stronger and more det~ed. l 've run years where you can't do anything wrong and I've run years you can't do anything right. I don't think is going to he one of those years." Part of that comes fiom Labonte's helief that Long is more involved in the process of building car; at Hendrick. There's always been speculation that Labonte and teammate Jerry Nadeau don't get the same level of equipment as Gordon, and now that rookie Jimmie Johnson has been brought on, there's even fewer parts for the also;-ran5. Hendrick and everyone else involved have alw.iys denied the rumor. But Long has taken a more hands--on approach than his predecessor to try to figure out why Gordon's cars > are usuaUy superior to the other Hendrick cars.

Instead of worrying about the upcoming NCAA tournament, 'the Buckeyes were determined to go far in the Big Ten tourney first. Reserve Terence Dials' 14 points led' five players in double figures Friday night, and No. 21 Ohio State held off Michigan 75-68 for its first victory in the conference tournament since 1999. "This .year, we put our emphasis on staying around here for a couple days," senior guard Brian Brown said. The Buckeyes (21-7) altered their .Jook - all the players shaved their heads- and then went out and played like a team. They had balanced scoring, solid defense and toughness that allowed them to stave off Michigan's charge in the final minutes. "We didn't want to come in here and shave our heads and then lose and have people asking why we. shaved our heads," Brown said. Instead, the Buckeyes advanced to the Big Ten semifinals for the second time. And they did it by improving to 3-0 this season against Michigan; including a win on the road last weekend to earn a share of the Big Ten regular-season tide . . Brown had a poor shooting night, finishing 4-for-14 from the field for 11 points, five under his average. But he scored when Ohio State really needed him to, making two baskets in the final 2:42 to raise the Buckeyes' conference tourney mark to 2-4 ·overall. "Brian became tentative because he wasn't making his shots:' Buckeyes coach Jirn O'Brien said. "l-Ie was not being aggressive." Brown's teammates picked up the slack. Brent Darby and Bohan Savovic got Ohio State started early, while Dials provid~d a strong inside presence, as did .. Velirnir Raclinovic and Zach Williams. Williams finished with 11 points, Darby an4 Savovic 10 each. Only Radinovic, with eight points, failed to reach double figures. "I thought 1we .played very, very well offensively, we just couldn't pull away;· O'Brien said. "Michigan deserves some credit for hanging in there, but we just made some big plays at the end." It didn't look like Ohio State would need much help from the Wolverines after it took a 15-2 lead in the first seven minutes. Michigan (11-18), though, battled back with a.7~0 run and closed the half with four straight points to get within 42-35. LaVeil Blanchard led Michigan with 24 points, while Chris Young and Bernard Robinson.Jr. each added 10. "I do feel our kids really laid it on the line;' said Michigan coach Tommy Amaker, whose team lost for the eighth time in 10 games. "To me that's a great start."· The Wolverines continued to close early in the second half, getting within 44-40 at the 18:16 mark. From that point, Ohio State maintained the lead but could not pull away. Michigan got within 64-63 '!"hen Young hit a 5-footer with 5 1/2 minutes left and even had a chance to take the lead on its next possession, but Blanchard's 7-footer was short. The Buckeyes responded with two Raclinovic baskea and then a 17 -footer from Brown that made it 70-66 with 2:42 left. After Blanchard cut the lead to 70-68, Brown put in a 5-foot bank shot that se~ed the game. "Brown's basket was extremely critical;' O'Brien said.

Instead they've had Cecil Collins, John Avery, · Sammie Smith and 17 consecutive seasons · without a trip to the Super Bowl. The Dolphins went 11-5 the past two years thanks to strong defense and kicking. A potent running attack could make them the team to beat in the AFC. "The biggest thing is I'm going to a place where we're going to win right away, and I'm going to be a part of that;' Williams said when his phone line cleared up. "That's all you can really ask for." Williams was slowed by injury every year in New Orleans and fumbled 20 times in three seasons, but the Dolphins dismiss any concerns. l-lis tendency to fumble is correctable and a reflection of effort, Wannstedt said. "It's not because he carries the ball loosely or he's lackadaisical," Wannstedt said. ' "The few that have come out, he's getting hit and he's twisting and .turning and trying to break the tackle and get the extra yard." As for durability, Williams missed only two games in four years as a starter at the . University of Texas. At New Orleans he played enough to average 271 carries per season. "For the number of touches he gets, nothing unusual jumped out at us," Wannstedt said. With Miami, Williams will get maybe 30 to 40 touches a game. That's just what he wants: plenty of chances to carry the ball, and a chance to start over.

It's tree,ta·:>ping time In Onio . BY THE OHIO ONR ·Across Ohio, maple trees are being tapped for a natural goodness that only Mother Nature could so perfecdy provide. Turning tree sap to syrup has been around since the days . when Native Am~ricans roamed the wood!an~ of Ohio and other northern states. And just as they taught ea rly colonists how to plant corn, !hese first Ohioans also shared their knowledge about maple syrup production. We've come a long way from those early sugaring methods, such as using hollowed-out logs to capture dripping sap. Today.. in commercial sugaring, a maple grove resembles a giant network of IVs with rubber hoses running from tap holes to receiving tanks. While methods have changed, the basic process for creating maple syrup has not: Tapping, collecting sap and boiling it to evaporate the water to produce a thick, sweet, amber- colored syrup. Can you believe it takes 40 gallons of sap to make approximately one gaiU ion of syrup! That:s because tree sap is 98 percent water. After going through the evaporation process, the sap's sugar content increases, eventually tUrning it from sap to syrup. While sap from other trees can be made into syrup, sap from the maple tree reigns supreme because of its high sugar content. Within the maple family the best tree for tapping is, appropriately, the sugar maple. Ohio's largestsugar maple grows in north -central Summit County. It's 173 inches around arid IOS feet tall! Maple trees are tapped in mid-to-late February when daytime temperatures ·go above freezing and nighttime temperature fall below freezing. These conditions create positive pressure within the wood, forcing sap to " rise" and begin circulating throughout the tree. Trees use sap to store and transport nutrients needed for growth and leaf production. According to Lynn Boydelatour, a naturalist with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, tapping does not harm the tree as long as it's healthy and th,e number of ta'ps is appropriate for the size of the tree. "Small holes are bored in the trunk just large ·enough to · accommodate the small spout that directs the sap into a bucket or plastic tubing," Boydelatour said.."The old taps heal over and new hole~ are drilled elsewhere in the tree the following spring." The ideal sugar maple reaches tap size around 40 years of age and could continue providing sap for up to 100 years. Northeastern Ohio, where beech and maple forests are predominant, is best known for maple sugaring. West central Ohio is also good sugar country, especially in and ' around Hueston Woods State Park in Preble and Butler counties . 0 HI0 0 teloors �Inside: Celebrations begin on C2 Page C1 Szzad.,., "n diiO, 2002 ul don't have' the heart to give ;;r, FORD something back to somebody that isn't really, really nice, because I know it melinrsomething;'' '~ CURSIONXL was $40,820 ow $30,800 F250 4x4 Score big points with our low, low stickers on all in-stock vehicles! 7.3 powerstroke was $31,060 Jane Edelman : ., · NOW $25,6 Save over $10,000 ,. .....

In the 1910s and early 1920s,several Gallia County pitchers made it ·;o the "bigs." . Included in the number would be Ed Donalds, Pete Sims, Ed Grover, Harley Dillinger and John Singleton. Donalds won 30 games or more on two occasions in the old Ohio State class D minor league with Portsmouth,. but his career wi•h the Reds lasted only a few games. · Sims too had a brief stint with Cincinnati. Grover made it to Detroit where he struck out the aforementioned Home Run Baker. Grover lasted one year. Harley Dillinger went from pitching with Rio Grande College in the spring to pitching for the Cleveland Indians that summer. But he only pitched a few games before returning to southern Ohio. John Singleton became a starting pitcher for the Philadelphia Phillies in late 1922.1n 1921, he w.s pitching in Gallipolis. The next year he was facing the likes of Rogers Hornsby and Max Carey. Singleton won only one game while losing 10, but his one win was a shutout. Singleton, known as Dubs in his early career and as Sheriff Singleton while he was with the Phillies, broke into pro baseball in 1915 at age 18 with the Chillicothe Babes in the Ohio State League. He joined the Babes in mid-season after scouts saw the young Singleton strike out 18 Middleport MORE· LQ~~~.. lf . ' _::!: ',t_ ' ~-~- ·i;. ' players.

It was while playing with the Marines in Cuba and later Europe that Singleton was noticed by the big league scouts. Singleton's manager in Cuba would become a .coach with the St. Louis Cardinals and later with the Phillies. Singl<;,ton failed his first trial with the Cards and was sent back to Gallipolis.

Singleton probably has the distinction of being the only southeastern Ohio person we know of to play in both the major leagues and in the National Football League. For in 1928, Singleton was a halfback with the Dayton Triangles, chen members of rhe NFL. The Triangles, so named because of.the three General Motors factories that formed a triangle (General Motors owned the franshise), were . charter members of the NFL in 1920-21.

What · did he mean? Certainly : there are many causes for unhappiness in families, but in what way are happy families different in their abil. ity to successfully handle adversity? In . his bestselling book, "7 Habits : of Highly Effective Families," : Stephen Covey compares a successful family to an airplane pilot with a flight plan . For the pilot, the flight plan iden. tifies the destination and outlines the : path to getting there. But during the : course of the flight, wind, rain, turbulence, air traffic, human error and other factors act upon that plane. Throughout the trip there are slight deviations from the flight plan. But barring anything too major, the plane will arrive at its destination . Likewise, happy families have unique "flight pjans" that reflect values and principles that enable them to successfully handle problems and reach the desired "destination." I. Becky Collins ADVICE Covey's first habit, being proactive, can be defined as being responsible .. for our own choices and having the freedom to choose based on values rather than moods or circumstances. Covey uses the analogy of the Emotional Bank Account" to describe the concept of proactivity. The Emotional Bank Account represents the quality of the relationship a person has with family members. It's like a financial bank account · in that "deposits and withdrawals" are made that impact the trust levels between family members. Successful families strive to maintain high balances in the Emotional Bank Accounts. Even when mistakes are made in a relationship, the "emotional reserves" will compensate for it. Every problem encountered is seen as an opportunity to make another deposit. Habit 2 - begin with the end in mind - involves creating a clear vision of what you and your family are all about. Habit 2 is about destination. Covey suggests that families develop a family mission statement that describes .what kind of family you really want to be and identifies the principles that will help you get there. Put first things first is the third habit. This habit involves focusing on priorities, namely the importance of family. Covey cautions that, "Things . which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least." Habit 4 - think "win-win" encourages family memqers to think in terms of mutual benefit. Happy families (aster support and mutual respect. They think in terms of"we" not ume" in order to tnake agreements.

Artificial sweeteners, such as cyclamate and saccharin, are not recommended during pregnancy. Foods or beverages containing other sweeteners are not recommended during pregnancy if they take the place of more nutritious foods. · It is best to use regular table sugar to sweeten foods. Along with eating nutritious foods, most doctors will prescribe a prenatal victim to supplement maternal and fetal nutrition. . Pregnant women are often concerned about gaining too much weight. If you. are eating sensibly, most of the weight you are gaining is the baby. An average weight gain is between 25 and 35 pounds if your weight before pregnancy was healthy. Women who eat well throughout pregnancy and gam the appropriate amount of weight are more likely to have healthier babies than are women who gain 'too little or too much. ' Along with good nutrition, _it is important tt:? get an ade-,, quare amount of exercise. A woman who exercises is bound to weather the physical stresses and strains of pregnan~ ro cy better. Working out also helps you fight fatigue more effectively and motivates you to eat more nutritiously. By strengthening back and abdominal muscles, you can help ease back pain, a comman complaint as ligaments stretch and your weight increases. Before starting any exernse program, consult your physician. Moderation IS the key when you are expecting. Begin slowly.Try wal,king. It is fun, free, and easy to do with others. It 1s recommended that pregnant wo~ exercise for 20 to 30 minutes two or three times per week. Listen to your body. If you are too breathless to talk while wQrking out, you are pushing too hard. Never exercise to the point of exhaus- tion. If you feel tired or achy the next day, ease up. Stop exercising and alert your doctor immediately if you experience any of the following: Rapid heartbeat, dizziness, faintness, pelvic pain; cramping, bleeding or shortness of breath. Pregnancy is a time to take especially good care of your- ' self and your unborn child. For more information about nutrition and exercise during pregnancy, you may call the Gallia County Prenatal Clinic at 446-8538.

"It is so new that when I saw it last fill, the salespeople from GE didn't even ·know it e:xisted:' said John Murrey; D. 0., chief of radiology at O'Bieness. · The ultrasound imaging system produces high-resolution images of ilinost any part of the body. 4'The development of new computer software and hardware -· technology is responsible for the better, higher-resolution images," Murrey said. "At O'Bleness, physicians and patients will have access to the finest-quality ultrasound imaging equipment available operated by three ultras()nography technologists who have received specialized Jraining and are registered by the American Registry of Medical Sonographers." The new unit replaces an ultrasound imaging system purcluse about six years . ago. "When you're dealing with high.: tech, computer oriented equipment, five yem is like a century:' said Murrey. That can present problems for hospitals which must constantly update equipment that comes with hefty price tags. The new system costs $200,000. O'Bleness used ·funds from the estate of Hunter and Florence Hooe to purchase it. , Among many - advanced features, the new system incorporates the latest in digital encoding technology, Murrey said. It allows high frequency sound waves "10 penetrate deeper into the body, .and gives high resolution images of organs tlut were previously inaccessible such as · organs deep in the abdomen, he said.

They hoped to find it in the lettuce fields of Salinas Valley - Steinbeck's "green gold."

But now that redistricting has created new boundaries for the Sixth, the Lucasville Democrat finds himself working to be just as familiar, to new constituents. Starting next year, the Sixth, which form erly extend~ d from Marietta to Cincinnati's suburbs, runs from eastern Scioto County to near Youngstown, including new counties Strickland hopes to continue representing after November's election. "There is a concern that it's going to be impossible for a person to adequately represent them," Strickland said during a stop last week in Gallipolis, noting the district now stretches some 360 miles. "I plan to do it, I'm determin ed to do it, but some folks want a representative from up there,'' StriCkland said. Strickland "If I'm .elected, I'm committed to representing all of the district," he added. "I won't discriminate between one community over the other." His opposition in the May 71Jrimary will be from the district's newer end. Democrats also seeking nomination are Boardman attorney Lou D' Apolito and businessman Charles Brown ofYorkville. Republicans looking to challenge the seat are businessman Mike Halleck ofSalem,o who met with Gallia County GOP.Ieac;lers-last. .w~ek, and former U.S. Rep, Lyle Williams ofWarren. · Strickland has since bounced around what he calls the "river district" - because 10 of the 12 counti es making up the new Sixth border the Ohio River - and has found concerns in GaUia and Meigs are about the same in Columbiana and Mahoning as far as the national agenda is concerned. "Some issues have been around for a long time ;md remain unresolved, such as lower prescription prices for senior citizens," he reflected, but noted elimination of local empowerment zones, loss of highway funds of Ohio and a reduced budget for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers are new worries for the region.
