There's no looking at a building here after seeing Italy ." This week, we have been flying around the globe. To finish, we land in Italy, Salsomaggiore to be pre· cise, and a deal from the match between Poland and Russia at the European Cham· pionshi"ps, played last June. . . At first glance, it looks as · though declarer cannot fail in four hearts. However, an inspired lead allowed 1he Russian East-West pair 10 force S011th to guess the trump position·. . The bidding looks strange. I think three spades asked North if . he had a singleton somewhere, with four clubs doing lhe obvious. This would explain both South's signing off and' West's not leading the club king. Instead, Aleksander Petrunin · {West) found a diabolical low-spade lead. (This · wa~ safer thari usual because presumably South was thinking about ·a slam when he asked North aboul shortages. So, desperate measures were clearly required to have any chance to defeat the contract.) Afler winning with his spade queen, Andrei Gromov returned his other spade. West won with the ace and gave his partner a . spade ruff. East ex· iled with a club to declarer's ace. The declarer, Mar- · cin Lesniewski, cashed the heart king and led a second heari. Had East started with Q "J-10 of hearts or only Q-J? Going wilh the odds, Lesniewski cahed for dummy's heart eight and made his contract. The spectalors in the Vu-Graph theater applauded the excellent play by bolh sides. , ·m DOWN 1 Schnoz.

The group also participates in runs with riders from Athens . and other counties for charitable causes throughoul the year.

(AP) - The former mayor was acquitted and two other men were convicted Saturday in the shotgun slaying of a young black woman . during race · riots that tore apart York in 1969, the verdicts aJI but closing the books on a crime that has haunted the city for more than three decades. Charlie Robertson, 68, had faced life in prison before his acquittal by the all-white jury. The former mayor and two other men were tried in the death of Lillie Belle Allen, a preacher's daughter from Aiken, S.C., who was g11nned 9own by a white mob on July 21, 1969. Robert Messersmith and Greg Neff were convicted of second-degree murder and face a maximum ·sentence of life · in prison; jurors had the option of convicting them of manslaugter. The long-unsolved case is nearly finished: Of the 10 white men charged in Allen's slaying, six pleaded guilty earlier and await sentencing. The final suspect faces trial later. The case was dormant for years before prosecutors, saying they had new information, opened it again in 1999. Many in this faded manufacturing city of 40,000 worried openly that the investigation and trial would reopen old wounds. The riots, touched off by simmering violence betwee)l white and black youths, left Allen dead, white patrolman Henry Schaad mortally wounded, more than 60 people injured and whole blocks burned. It took 400 National Guardsmen and state police troopers to quell the violence. • Robertson, a police officer during the riots, went on to become a popular twoterm mayor. Prosecutors said Messersmith and Neff were members of the white gangs that ambushed the car carrying Allen, 27, and flom . . . A1 in~ anybody up who is a lawabiding citiZen. They'll get hit with a Civil Rights lawsuit eventually." Gary Mehalik, a spokesman for the Newtown, ' Conn.-based National Shooting Sports Foundation, spoke to those accuracy concerns. "Fingerprints and DNA don't change, but the interaction of firing a cartridge under terrific pressure with high temperatures and forcing one piece of inetal through another changes the metal with each pull of the trigger," said Mehalik. "Every time you fire a gun you change the barrel." But Eric Gorovitz, who tracks . gun laws for the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, said such changes are inconsequential and that the value of ballistic imagery has been proven time .and again in trials. No forensic evidence provides absolute certainty, he ·said, but it does narrow the field. . "Ballistic fingerprinting increases the chance of you J;Ctting a lead that can take you one step closer," · Gorovitz said. Chuck Walker of Walkers Guri & Pawn on Jericho four relatives. said - Prosecutors Robertson handed out ammunition to at least one of the gunmen in an effort to even the . score for the shooting ' bf the patrolman three days before Allen was slain. One of the men who pleaded guilty, Rick Knouse , testified that Robertson gave him 30.06 rifle ammunition and told him to "kill as many" blacks as he could. . Robertson · admitted shouting "white power!" at a gang rally the day 'before · Allen's killing, but denied the other accusations·. He has apologized for his views back then, saying the mugging of ·his father by three black men when he was a youth affected him deeply. Messersmith, 53, was accused of firing the shot that killed Allen, while Neff, 54, was accused of shooting at the white Cadillac carrying Allen, her sister, brother-in-law ahd parents. The family was on its way to the grocery store when the car turned into a predominantly white neighborhood where armed youths had girded for war with blacks. The car stalled, and Allen was shot when she climbed' out to take the wheel from a relative. According to witnesses, Messersmith later bragged about the slaying. saying "I blew the nigger in half." Robertson was the first officer to arrive at the murder scene. While he credited himself with saving the lives of Allen's relatives, he and three other office·rs did . not disarm gang members, take witness statements or file a report. "Everyone knew who was involved," Robertson told Time magazine last year. "But.everyone just thought it was even. One black had been killed and one white- even."

Historian Stephen Ambrose's "To America," a book of "personal reflections" ·completed shortly before his death, is, essentially, a work of history.

"To America" will be released on Veterans Day, Nov. 11. with a first printing of 275,000. Ambrose, whose many best sellers included such World War II.books as "Band of Brothers" arid "D•Day," saw his reputation repeatedly challenged earlier this year when reports emerged of passages that closely resembled the works of others.

People from all walks of life use it regularly. I can't help noticing that some people misrepresent themselves when e-mailing others. One woman calls herself "Sexy· Mama." She corresponds with a number of men. I know for a fact this woman had her children taken · away because of physical abuse. She has poor dental hygiene, wears dirty clothes and is far from being a "sexy mama." Some of the men who correspond with women have social and mental problems. After they've e-mailed a message to one of their "lady friends," they pull out a magazine and look at pornography. The point I am making is that people can misrepresent themselves in chat rooms and e-mails. You have no means of knowing who you are ovs from Page C1 · Nielsen and Rachmaninoff's Isle of the Dead. . "There are definitely going to be goblins," Fowler joked. "And the work in which that will characterized is the Rachmaninoff Isle of the Dead - a very dark work. It's very beautiful, very pas· sionate, but nevertheless, it's the goblin part ·of the evening." The Larry Parsons Chorale, based at the West Virginia Center for the Choral Arts.in Clarksburg, W. Va,, joins the · symphony for its annual Christmas . performance Saturday, Dec. 7, featuring a presentation of Handel's The Messiah (Part I) and carols and songs of the season in what Fowler described as almost a two-for-the-priceof-one deal. "On this particular concert we're doing something very unsual - it's probably not done on Messiah concerts," Fowler said. "The Larry Parsons Chorale is going to perform a 20-minute segment of just music for voices, and it will be all holiday music, all Christmas~type music. And then we'll have a short break and then have The Messiah. "So, they're sort of getting two ·concerts in one." · Larry ij.. · Parsons, the chorale's founder, has been a driving force behind "building, ellpanding and elevating the quality of choral music in West Virginia."

Marital success based on connection Successful marriages 'have at least five times as many positive interactions as negative interactions, according to Dr. John Gottman, · Clinical Psychologist from the University of Washington. Usually, this is a pattern that is establi shed early on in the couple,s dating and engagement. Unfortunately, after marriage, over time, many couples begin to drift apart as work, life, family pressures, and di sillusion ments set in. One of the key~ to maintaining and sustltini ng more positive interactions and fewer negatiye interactions is by responding positively to one·another's "bids for connection." A bid for c,on nection is one person's request for a connection to the other person. A bid could be a question ("How was your day?"), a gesture (reaching out to hold hands), a facial expression (smile), or even a touch {hugging). According to recent resea'rch, the way in which a spouse responds to his/her partner's bid for . connection can greatly impact the strength and length of their marital relationship. In study- Becky Collins GUEST VIEW ing couples' dinner-hour conversation s, Gottman found that happily married partners tended to engage each other I 00 times in just I0 minutes. In contrast, he found that couples that would eventually divorce engaged . one another less than 65 times in I0 minutes. . Gottman has called thi s proces s of responding positively "lurning toward'' ' one s spouse. Turning toward means acknowledging the partner's bid and ·giving positive responses. The underlying messages of these positive responses serve to commumcate the sentiment, "l hear you, I want to talk to you, I understand you, I accept yoi't, I want to be ( with you." Turning toward the bid can be as simple as squeezing your spouse's hand when he/she reaches for yours, holding eye contact for a few extra seconds. pleasant responses to everyday questions, or allowing your · knees to brush against each other under the table . A verba l example of turning toward the bid "How about going for a walk?" would be as simple as saying "Sure, I' d love to go for a walk with you. Where would you like to go?" These positive messages help the "bidder" feel good about him, self or herself and ihe interaction the couple is having. This exchange, in turn, leads to more bidding and more positive responses. Turning toward one's spou se leads to · the growth and development of healthy relationships. These positive responses show a genuine mterest in and a desire to please. each other. When couples develop a pattern of turning toward one another they not only are more likely to feel accepted and cared for but they · invest in what Gottman describes as Please see Collins, Dl '··~-· ·· ~-·-··-·· -.1'--- ' '. ,__ / �.....

LANSING, Mich. (AP) -A federal appeals court Friday cleared the way for Michigan to test welfare recipients for drug use. · U.S. District Court Judge Victoria Roberts halted a pilot drug-testing program in 1999 after a group of welfare recipients and the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan argued that the testing is unconstitutional. A three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circui.t , Cou~t. of Appeals r~versed Roberts dectston Fn~ay, saym~ the testing program is based on a legitimate need to ensure that public money is n01 used for illegal purposes. Robert Sedler, the attorney who sued the state Family Independence Agency on behalf of several welfare recipients, said he will appeal to the full court. "We are dealing here ... with the suspicionless testing of adults," he sa.id. Michigan w;w; the first state to pass such a program, and many other states have been watching the case progress, the ACLU said Friday. According to the Welfare Information Network, a Washington, D.C.-based clearinghouse, states that have drugtesting in some form for welfare recipients include Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland; Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North C;ublina, Oklahoma and.Oregon. "It's clear that the Michigan case had a chilling effect, but some states have gone ahead and done it anyway," said Andrea Wilk.ins, a policy analyst with ns hemes.

The trade gap widened as imports posted a solid increase as exports fell . . Imports of goods and services rose by 2 percent to $120.3 billion, the highest level in 17 months. Strong U.S. demand for foreign-made goods and a speedup of imports in anticipation of the West Coast labor dispute contributed to the rise, said Lynn Reaser; chief economist at Bane of America Capital Management. Sales of foreign-made consumer goods, a broad category including clothes, television sets, VCRs and household appliances, led the way in imports, up 4.2 percent in August to a record $26.7 billion. Exports feU by 1.3 percent in August to $81.9 billion.

The figure was reported incorrectly. · , 'r·f ~.ac . sausau•.··: POMEROY -Two prominent symbols of America the flag and the eagle- have been brought together in a · redesign of the Bald Eagle license plates which went on sale last month. . After the attack on the World Trade Center, Rep. Robert Latta (R-Wood County) suggested to the Ohio Bureau of Motor . Vehicles a design change to include both the eagle and the American flag. Through his . efforts , the BMV . and the Department of 'Natural Resources, the change was · made. Last week Sue Maison, deputy registrar, became the first to purchase the new plates from the Meigs BMV · office. ' · · Displaying her new red, . white and blue plates which are marked "1803 Ohio Bicdntennial 2003" across the top, Maison explained that there has been Bald Eagle plates since 1999, but without the flag or mention of the state's"200th bir!hday. For the nine months of 1999 when the eagle license plates were available to the public 2,985 were sold. In 2000, 8,446 of the plates were sold, and last year 11,548 Bald Eagle Plates were sold. "Every time Bald Eagle plates are sold," said Maison, "a portion of the money ($15) goes to support Bald Eagle management programs, habitat restoration and acquisi tion. "A ·standard issue Bald Eagle plate costs ~ additional $25 annually. If the plate is personalized, it costs $35, but purchasers need to remember that when they pay the extra . cost. they are contributing-to preservation of . the eagle along with conservation practices." She noted that over the past several years the new eagle · Sue ·Maison, deputy registrar for Meigs County, puts a new Bald Eagle license plate on her vehl· plates have brought in cle. She was the first person to purchase the special plates from the Meigs License Bureau . Part of the cost goes into preservation of the eagle . (Charlene Hoeflich) Please see EaKle.
