OUR VIEW \ State cuts contribution Don't "go hope BEF brings meeting back to Gallia ·Wai·Mart drops store plan Jfe Word that Bob Evans Farms Inc. is moving its annual meeting away from Gallia County isn't welcome news around these parts. · It's akin to losing one of our oldest, dearest fri._ends. For nearly four decades, the company has welcomed shareholders to the Bob Evans Farm in Rio Grande. And so it should be for a company that built its reputation "down on the farm." The annual meeting is a great local tradition. This year, Stewart K. Owens, BEF's new president, chief executive officer and chairmah of the board, opted to shift the meeting to Columbus' Southern Theatre to try something ·~ new. Mary Cusick, the company's vice president for corporate communications, explained the move. "He's looking at new venues, something more comfortable and conducive to a traditional business meeting," Cusick said. "The meeting can be managed in the normal course of the day, and it provides an opportunity for possible use of visual aids. "He just wants to give this a try." ·Some thing; in life just don't need to be "new and improved."This is one of them. . Bob Evans Farms Inc. is a country-born-and,-bred company that grew faster than a Gallia County hog after sinking roots right here in southeastern Ohio. With such rapid growth, it's understandable BEF's corporate headquarters needs to be in a big city. We don't yet have the resources locally~to support such a large firm's needs. That said, BEF leadership shouldn:t forget the company's roots. Making an annual pilgrimage to where it aU began · should be a job requirement for aU corporate executives, not to mention a privilege for its shareholders. We hope BEF's decision to move the meeting is a one-timeonly deal. We appreciate the company's longstanding commitment to our community, and we value its partnership. Gallia County should continue to be an instrumental part of this fine organization. After all, this is where it all began. · It's one thing for corporate execs to take the company out of the country, but let's not take the country out of the company. II . TODAY IN HISTORY KILPATRICK'S VIEW Checking the uses of the ever-versatile word 'do' The Court of l'eeves, Crotchets and Irks interrupts its. summer sloth to hear a · motion from Jim Diffenderfer of Renton, Wash. He asks for a declaratory judgment on "do" and more particularly on "did." This may take some time. Few English · verbs are more widely employed than the humble verb "to do." It means to perform: She did her chores. It means to complete: The roast is done. A woman who puts on makeup is doing her face. On a turnpike COLUMNIST we may be doing 75.

He asks the court to giw the phrase a light trim, cutting it back to "fled at high speed." Consider it done! Speed is a measurable quantity.· "Rate of" is usuaUy redundant. , Cynthia GaUaher of Chicago asks the' court if the familiar phrase is properly "aU tole\;' or "all toUed." It's all told, dating· from 18~0 in the sense of "completely counted."The court supposes a pun could be fas hioned from the beUringer who was· all tolled out at the end of the day, but it would take some work. James E. Webb of Owens Cross Roads, Ala., petitions the court for a declaratory judgment on the distinction between ."acerbate" and "exacerbate." The court's ruling is controlled by its prior ruling in Cogitate v. Excogitate. One thinks, and one has second thoughts. So it is with an . itch. First we acerbate it, then we make it worse - we exacerbate it. Readers who do not like the court's exposition are invited to expostulate. Or we could trapelate for a while, and after lunch we could extrapolate. The court stands in recess. (Readers are invited to send dated citations of usage to Mr. Kilpatrick in care of this newspaper.

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Sunday, Aug. 5, the 217th day of200J.There are 148 days left in the year. · Today's Highlight in History: On Aug. 5, 1981, .the federal government began firing air traffic controllers who had gone out on strike. On this date: In 1861, the federal government levied an income tax for the · first time. In 1864, during the Civil War, Union Admiral David G. Farragut is said to have ordered, "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!" as he led his fleet against Mobile Bay, Ala. In 1884, the cornerstone for the Statue of Liberty was laid on . · · Bedloe's Island in New York Harbor. In 1914, the first electric traffic lights were installed, in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1924, the comic strip "Little Orphan Annie," by Harold Gray, made its debut. In 1957, "American Bandstand," hosted by Dick Clark, made its network debut on ABC. In 1962, actress Marilyn Monroe, 36, was found dead in her Los Angeles home; her death was ruled a probable suicide from an overdose of sleeping pills. In 1963, the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union signed a treaty in Moscow banning nuclear tests in the atmos. phere, in space and underwater. In 1980, Hurricane Allen battered the southern peninsula of Haiti,leaving more than 200 dead in its wake. In 1984, actor Richard Burton died at a hospital in Geneva, Switzerland, at the age of 58 . . Ten years ago: Democratic congressional leaders formaUy launched an investigation into whether the 1980 Reagan- Bush campaign had secretly conspired with Iran to delay release of American hostages until after the presidential election. (A task force later concluded there was "no credible evidence" of such a deal.) Five years ago: In a bid to capture a skeptical public's attention, Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole proposed a $548 billion tax cut. A jury in San Jose, Calif., recommended the death penalty for Richard ADen Davis, convicted of kidnapping and murdering 12-year-old Polly Klaas of Petaluma. One year ago: President Clinton vetoed a Republican-spun" sored tax cut for married couples, describing it as "the first installment of a fiscally reckless tax strategy." Actor Sir Alec Guinness died at a southern England hospital at age· 86. Today's Birthdays: Former astronaut Neil A. Armstrong is 71. Country singerVe.rn Gosdin is 67.

"Education should be treated as an industry." Wise's comments came a day after Higher Education ChanceUor J. Michad Mullen introduced a strategic plan that encourages coUeges· and universities to focus on ·West Virginia's economic needs and to view students as clients. "Higher education can no longer be an entitlement program;' Wise said. Last year, the Legislature passed a higher education program that restructures the way colleges and universities are funded and governed.

It's called democracy. People like leaders who are a) fuU of optimism and love of country, and b) don't think they're better than us. By that standard, Bill Clinton certainly flunked a couple of second-term exams.

Sabathia's feet, signaling his arrival in the big leagues as much as his t 0 wim. While the Cleveland indians' rookie pitcher caught up on fan mail, he closely examined each of the baseball cards sent for his autograph. One, trimmed in gold, was too good to pass up. "This one's a keeper," said Sabathia, spinning, in his recliner and tossing it onto a locker shelf as if he were making a pickoff move to second base. ';It's cool." So is Sabathia, a 21-year-old phenom who has been much more than a surprise for the Indians this season. Carsten Charles Sabathia (pronounced sah-BATH-ee-ah) has been Cleveland's steadiest starter and the savior of a very shaky pitching ~taff. "C. C. is, without . a doubt, one of those guys who comes along once in a while," said 14-year veteran outfielder Ellis Burks, who took Sabathia under his wing during spring training apd kept him there. "I have never played with a guy who at 21 is so mature. There are a lot of great arms out there, but if you don't have the maturity, it doesn't mean anything. Nothing really shakes him up." ·The engaging left-hander with a -beaming smile and casual manner has been unflappable in his first season . Whether facing boyhood idol Ken Griffey Jr., striking out Jose Canseco three pitches or meeting the media after getting pummeled by the Oakland Athletics on Thursday nigbt in the heat of a pennant race, Sabathia has stayed cool. · No matter the situation, C. C.'s in charge. "I get it from my mom," said Sabathia, who makes daily calls to his mother, Margie, in Vallejo, Calif., and twice on days he starts. "They say I'm calm? My mom is so laid back. Nothing seems to worry her. Things do, but you wouldn't be able to tell." .The same is true for Margie's 6lfoot-7, 260-pound· boy. With a 97 mph fastball, a changeup that's getting better every day and a drop-off-the-table breakin~ pitch, Sabathia has soared through the lndi' ans' system much quicker than anyone could have dreamed.

McGwire out of lineup with knee injury ST. LOUIS (AP) Mark McGwire injured his surgically repaired right knee Thursday nigbt and was out of the St. Louis Cardinals' lineup for a doubleheader agaimt Florida on Friday. M anager Tony . La Russa said McGwire "tweaked" his knee on a cutoff play. He aggravated the injury taking a pitch later in the game and his . knee buckled a bit when he took a called third strike for the final out in · a 2- 1 loss to Atlanta. "I think it's smarter to be concerned," La Russa said. "Yeah, I'm concerned. He's worked hard to get back into the line- . up, so to miss a game it's got to be something you pay attention to:' McGwire underwent therapy on his knee earlier Friday and was waiting to see team doctors. "Something happened last nigbi;' McGwire said. "I don't know what." McGwire wa5 batting .198 with 19 homers and 39 RB!s. He had 573 career homers, tied with Harmon Killebrew for fifth place. ·La Russa wasn't certain whether McGwire would be available for pinch hitting. Rookie Albert Pujols, who .entered the doubleheader batting .321 with a te3lJlleading 25 homers and 78 RBl s, replaced MeGwire at first base in the first game. "[ stink anyway;• MeGwire said.

Lankford hit his 16th home run leading off the fourth. He went 1-for- 3 before being removed in a double switch in the sixth inning. "It was good to go out and try and make some things happen," Lankford said. "Unfortunately, it' was a tough loss." San Diego stranded 11 runners, including three innings when .it did not score with the bases loaded. None of the eight Padres who walked came around to score. "The guys in front of me did their jobs, but I didn't do mine," said Phil Nevin, who left eight runners on base in his final three at-bats. Brower struck out Nevin with the bases loaded to end the · third. The right- hander then walked three straight with one out in the fifth before striking out Nevin and Lankford. Jarvis, who had won four of hi s last five starts, gave up six runs on nine hits in 5 1-3 innings: The Reds scored two runs on wild pitches by Wascar Serrano in the seventh. ... ~ .. ... ..

If nor for Seattle's lchiro Suzuki, Sabathia would be a lock for AL Rookie of the Year. "What we're seeing is not a mirage," Indians general manager John Hart said. "And it looks like C.C. is getting stronger as the season goes. He's a freight train . He's becoming a big part of what we're doing." Sabathia is taking all the adulation in stride. It wasn't long ago that he was playing for the Indians' rookie affiliate in Burlington, N.C., living in a room barely big enough for him, a bed and TV. "Tiny," he said. "Thank God for cable and air conditioning." And it was just last season while pitching for Double-A Akron when he would throw a pitch ·and wonder where it would go. He finished with 90 strikeouts in 90 1-3 innings but also . · had 48 walks. "Since last year I feel like I'm a totally different pitcher," he said. "I have a lot more control over what I'm doing. I feel like I'm in command when I' m on the mound now. l know where th e. ball is going all the tim e." Sabathia averaged 10.4 strikeouts per nine innings in the minors, but he's not relying on his fastball as much now.

E·MAIL YOUR ANNOUNCEMENTS news@mydailytribune.com . news@mydailysentinel.com news@myydailyregister.com ALLIPOLIS From 1938 to 1952, the premier baseball . league in the area was the Ohio Valley Association. Competing in the league over the years were the likes of Hartford, Reedsville, Racine, Syracuse, Point Pleasant, Twin Cities (Pomeroy and Middleport) and at least one team from Gallipolis. Some years, Gallipolis had two teams, the Bees and the Galhans. In the early years, Hartford was the strongest team. It was managed by the Layne brothers, Harry and Herman. Harry Layne was actually one of the founders of the league. Harry, in his early years, played several seasons in minor leagu'e baseball even getting up to the AAA level for a few years. He was also a playing manager for Za~esvi~~ in the old M1d-Atlanttc League. The manager of the Racine team, Bert Grimm, also had a long career as a minor league player and ironically, he too had managed the Zanesville Greys as well · as managing in the Mountain State League. The first league championship in 1938 went to the HartfoJd Tigers, who beat the Gallipolis Gauls in the playoffs. The winning pitcher in the' final game was 49-year-old Harry Grimm. Galhpolis' losing pitcher, Howard Hardway, had pitched in the 1930s for Huntington Boosters in the Mid-Atlantic League. Gallipolis had an infield of Clark, P. Valentine, Brothers and C. Valentine. The catcher was Colt Wilson, and the outfield consisted of Haskins, Troth and Evans. · In 1939, Racine beat Hartford in a five-game playoff. Harry Grimm, then 50, was the losing pitcher ·this time. Harry Potts won it for Racine. In 1940, Hartford was back on top, coming back to beat the Gauls in the playoffi. · · Gallipolis' Woody Brothers, who had an incredible 17-1 pitching record in the regular season, got victimized by poor fielding behind him in the playoffi. · He lost two of the three games. Jumbo Hall was the winner for Hartford in the last two games after he had lost the first one. Gallipolis was somewhat inactive during the early 1940s. When Gallipolis reentered the OVA in 1946, Hartford was still the king. Gallipolis finished in the middle of the pack. Racine was second. Landon Sayre was the pitching star that year for the Tigers. The Gallipolis entry from 1946 to t 952 was called the Bees. It was sponsored by the Queen Bee Hotel at Second and Olive. The Bees finished behind Hartford in 1947, Racine in 1948 and Syracuse in 1949. . \~!W OVA CHAMPS- The Gallipolis Bees won the OVA baseball league In 1950. Players In this Max Tawney photo are, first row, Emil Thomas, Vic Hager, Bob Wion , Graham Thompson, Frank Valentine and Fred Burdette; second row, Johnny Lee, Leo Valentine, Aldo Jeffers, Dale Silky, Carl Baker, Gene Wetherholt, Eugene Pickens and Larry Lee. The OVA lasted from 1938 to 1952. James Sands HISTORY A. E. Jeffers was the Bees first manager, In time · he was replaced by Dale Gilkey himself. . With Gilkey as manager, the Bees started the 1950 season with a line-up of Hager, ss, Wetherholt, 3b, Long, 2b, Johnny Lee, tf,Thomas, lb,Jeffers, c, Larry Lee, If, Pickens, cf and Leo Valentine, p. While the Bees played a full schedule in the OVA, they also competed as an independent team against squads fr::.m Athens, Nelsonville, Huntington, W.Va., and the like. For many of these games the Bees borrowed ace pitcher from Syracuse, Bernie Guinther. Lights were first used on the Memorial baseball field in the creek bottoms in 1950. As many as 600 to 7 00 fans watched the Bees play each game. Early in the year, Syracuse, behind Guinther, was way ahead of the Bees. But the Bees had a young pitcher right out of high school named Gene Wetherholt who by the end of the season became the star pitcher in the league. Wetherholt that spnng while a senior at GAHS pitched a no hitter against Pomeroy. That summer in the OVA he pi\ched another nohitter as well. He also broke . the 1940 record of Layton Sayres for consecutive wins in one season. Persons in the OVA in 1950 who made the All-Star team were: from R~cine, Dave Diles, Grimm, A.\Volfe, Marr, ·Norris and Don Powell; from Hartford, Hesson, Lieving, G. Clarke, and Gilmore; from Reedsville, Spencer, Roy Hannum, Riebel and Williams; from Syracuse, Searles and Arms; from Twin Cities, Dick Walters, Magnotta, and Call; from Point Pleasant, Jimmy Hatfield, Gardner and Henderson. ·This group played the Bees: the first place team ·at the break. The Bees had the leading hitter in the league Johnny Lee, who batted over 400. He also led the league in homers. The other top Bees' hitter was Leo Valentine. Bees' players in 1951 included: Gene Wetherholt, Dick Hatfield, John Lee, Emil Thomas, Leo Valentine, Vic Hager, Bob Wion, Larry Lee, Bernie Guinther and Cooky Martin. The 1951 team was hit by injuries, work schedules and poor play. The error-prone Bees, so popular when they won it all in 1950, lost their fan support in 1951 and floundered toward the middle of the pack. The whole league limped into the 1952 season, but interest · was .waning. About midway 'through that season, the league folded. But in those 15 years, some good baseball was played along the Ohio River on many a summer Sunday.. (James Sands is a special correspondent for the Sunday TimesSentinel.

Singer-songwriter describes neui album as (a chronicle ofgrief' BY JIM PATTERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Dale Watson paid a horrible price for the inspitation to make the best album of his life. His new CD, "Every Song l Write Is for You," pays tribute to his fiancee, Terri Herbert, who died in a car accident last September. Several months later, Watson tried to kill himself. "The album is a chronicle of grief, if you will," he said. "Because you go through those stages. You go through the stage where you're an atheist, no doubt ... .You would give anything to change things, including your soul." .J But the 37-year-old Watson, who strummed a guitar and seemed at peace during an interview at his new record label, Audium R ecords, added, ".1 wouldn't have the spiritual peace I nave right now if it wasn't for Terri, as well as all the other stuff she gave me . ... As the saying goes,'What doesn't kill you makes you beaer."' "Every Song I Write Is for You" creates an aching aanosphere of loss and regret, many times set amid beautiful string arrangements by Watson and executed by Earl Poole Ball and Floyd Domino. "I'd Deal With the Devil" the one significant show of 1 anger - is a chilling moment reminiscent of Waylon Jenmngs. "He can throw my soul, into a fiery hole/To burn for all eternity/just for one more night to have her by my side/ And hold on to her and · not just.her memory," Watson _ sings with conviction. Herbert was a lawyer who worked for the state attorney general in Texas. She was known for helping musicians in Austin, where Watson lives, with their legal problems. The couple met at a party while Watson was 'getting a divorce, and began dating after the divorce was finalized. ''I'm still in awe when I think about we were only together four months," Watson said. "To think that someone could be in your life just four months, and jmt turn your · .Jworld around."

(AP Photo/Rick Sammon) New megapixel digital cameras are easy and fun to use ,. •. ·~I, ··:: ' BY RICK SAMMON . AP WEEKLY FEATURES There has never been a more "exciting time to be a photographer, amateur or professional. Digital photography allows instant gratification with simple point-andshoot operation. Moreover, camera software has become easier to navigate, and camera-to-computer hookup has been simplified. I recently brought home a digital camera system that was so easy to operate that in less than 10 minutes my 9-yearold son was taking pictures and e-niailing them to friends. Still more. good news for digital photographers is that the cost of digital cameras has come down. Size and weight have also beeh reduced. Some cameras fit in the palm of your hand. Here's a look"ai"a few of the recent ncllies--fl'Gm 35-mm c~mera manq(actweiS into the fast-growning , everchanging world of digital cameras. Canon PowerShot Pro 90. Canon is well - known for optics, and it is optics that distinguishes this 2.6-megapixel camera.

Suggested re tail price is $1 ,299. Fuji FineP ix 6800. If you like the look of the Porsche 911 sports car, you'D like lhe look of this 3.3-megapixel camera, because F.A.

One of the smallest and lightest digital cameras available, this camera offers a resolution of 2.1 megapixels, easy-to-operate controls, a sleek design and a zoom lens.

Do some window or Web shopping and see which digital camera is just right for you. For any parent with a youngster clamoring for a videogame console, Nintendo is the way to go . . Nintendo games usually keep the vio~ lence to a minimum and the bright colors and bouncy music turned up. . That trend continues with '' Mario Party 3," one of the best games ever designed to keep kids busy for hours. It maintains the look so beloved by Mario fans over the years - a pallet of brilliant colors and sharply detailed backgrounds. The game also provides a vast number of games so young minds don't get bored. There are six Battle R.oyale board games for one to four players, and 70 new mini-games. Some of the games are familiar, such as Mario's Puzzle Party, which looks suspiciously like Tetris. Others, like Parasol Plummet (control your descent by opening and closing your umbrella while floating into coins) and Aces High (an aerial dogfight) are less fanril.iar but no less entertaining. The board games are played like most of their ilk - . you spin to get a number, then move that many spaces around the board and see what hapflens at the space you land qn. In "Mario Party 3," some spaces pay coins, some take coins away, and some play This chart shows how local stocks of interest perform£d last week.

Just ask Philip Longo, a young farrier based in Athens. Longo is one of a number of modern farriers ~w,h.o carry out an ancient tradition of shoeing horses and tending to animals that still form the backbone of many local farms, and provide hours of riding pleasure to local equestrians. After class time and on-the-job training, Longo has been working for a year as a blacksmith, working toward becoming a certified farrier. Much of his work is for Meigs County farms. · The days are gone when the farri- er provided shoes on the spot. Now you can pick up the shoes out of the catalog. uThere's so much to learn," Longo said. "I talk to people who have done it for 30 years and they still don't know everything." Longo attended the Kentucky Horseshoeing School in Mount Eden, Ky., for three months, and took their master farrier program, where he earned a certificate. He has also worked with Master Farrier Dave Farley of Cincinnati. It all begin at Hocking College, where Longo took classes after moving here from San Antonio, Texas. "I took a horseshoeing class at Hocking, and got hooked;' Longo said. In addition to his long days shoe. ing horses from the back of his truck, Longo continues his love for horses as a member of HOPE Riders, a· synchronized riding group based in Pomeroy.

A:S Small-cap stocks still outperforming their larger company cousins after·all these years BY DIAN VUJOVICH Ever hear the old adage about how great g.ifts come in small packages? Sometimes the same . is true on Wall Street. Look at the long-term performance numbers on common stocks, and you'll find that small-cap stocks have outperformed their larger - company cousins Throughoutr· the decades. In fact, according to Ibbotson, the Chicagobased securities research company, from 1926 through year-end 2000, large-company · stocks had an average annual total return pf 11 percent, while small-caps returned 12.4 percent. ~ • But that's not news to John Montgomery. He's portfolio manager of a passively managed index fund named the Bridgeway Ultra-Small Company Tax Advantage Fund, .1(800-()61-3550). H e is a "quant" guy, who takes smallcap fund investing one step further : It's not small-cap stocks this fund is interested in, it's the really, really small ones. " Here's the deal," says Montgomery, founder of Houston-based Bridgeway fund family. "If you believe in the small-firm theory and small-cap investing at all, ultra-small stocks are the only place to be because of the big kick in returns." When looking at the ultrasmall cap market over long periods of time, it's not possi.ple to precisely define .market cap sizes because they've changed over time. What was considered small"cap 50 years ago is different today. So to calculate returns, number crunchers divide the market into 10 deciles - the lOth representing the tiniest companies. And , from 1926 through 2000, the average annual total return on that bottOI)J 1Oth percentile is 13.1 percent. Getting the "big kick" kinds of returns that Montgomery speaks of also means taking on more risks, such as those that involve market-cap size, fund management and market cycles. With that in mind, Morningstar reports that the Bridgeway Ultra-Small Company Tax Advantage fund was up year-to-date 12.13 percent as of July 13. At year-end 2000, it was ahead 0.7 percent; in 1999, up 31.5 percent; and 1998, down 1.8 p ercent. Hete's · more about the Bridgeway Ultra-Small Company Tax Advantage Fund (BRSIX): Q: It's not easy talking with quantitative guys about their funds because everything_ is numbers-driven: I can 't ask what companies you like and don't like, and why. Or about the companies you've visited because that's not what you do. Plus, this fund is a passively man aged index ·one to boot. Where 's the story? A: (Laughing) Well, maybe the story is in what I don't do. But I am a quant guy, and I like to do numbers and statistics. To drive that point home, I have made exactly one company visit in my entire lifetime. So I don't do the normal stuff. I feed numbers and statistics to computers. Q: That means how well. this fund performs depends upon the-model you've-created and how flexible it is? A: The only modeling that's going on in this pqrtfolio is trying to replicate the index. We're not going out and trying to pick great companies. We're trying to go out and buy representative companies of the index and then rely on the asset class to take care of the returns. Q: Which index does this fund try to replicate? A: The Center for Research and Security Prices Cap Based Portfolio 10 Index, (CRSP). It's run out of a center at the University of Chicago, so it's academic research on security prices. They have the same methodology of looking at returns of stocks by size as measured by the 10 deciles of the New York Stock Exchange. Q: H-o w many companies are in that universe ? A: Under 2,000. At the end ofJune, it was 1, 970. They are all U.S. companies, and the index has screens. So we don't invest in any foreign stocks, no unit .investment trusts, no closed-.end mutual funds or real estate investment trusts.

(AP) The sun is shining and the backyard barbecue smoking, but the 16 men crowded into a suburban living room on a Saturday afternoon aren't there to watch a big ballgame. They're caught up in the sport of maki ng money. "For Luce!lt to go back up to the $42 we bought it at, it has to go up to over 500 percent," pointed out Will Huggins, who wants to · sell the 151 shares of Lucent Technologies Inc. owned by the Expectation ln/eitment C lub. "There aren't many stocks out there that are goi ng to be able to do that, and I have my doubts about this one." · " It's not the only stock that is weak," obse rved James Harvey. "We're in rough shape on the technology side of our portfolio." What's nota bl e about this club isn't its investment style - i t decided to hold Lucent for more researcl; - but its membership: all men and all of them black. The group is just one example of growing efforts by black Americans to get involved in the stock market. "The level of interest in financial independence, economic · empowerment and investing has just exploded," said Duane Davis, founder of the Coalition o.f · Black Investors.
