The rally was organized by the Tusc~oosa-based League of the South.

WV NATIONAL BRIEFS Study: 'lhlnsplants Ineffective BOSTON (AP)- A new study casts doubt on the value of bone marrow tnnsplants for women with advanced breast cancer and one noted brnst cancer expert is recommending that it be abandoned. Researchers found that am.ong women wh0$e breast cancer had spread, patients who received bone marww transplants and received high doses of chemotherapy "do not survive longer or have a longer time to progression of the disease" than patients who get just regular chemotherapy over a two-year period. '#' The study was set to be published i,n the New England Journal of Medicine on April 13. The journal released it Friday on its Web site Friday. Dr. Marcia Angell, ihe journal's editor-in-chief, said a report out of South Africa that showed some benefit in the protedure later ·turned nut to be fraudulent. , She said the journal made its report available early becau* the South African studi"left a lot of concern and confusion among women and insurers who weren't sure whether to cover it." A total of 199 patients took part in the study, and after rhree years, there was no significant difference in the survival of the groups or in how.long the treatment kept the cancer from recuuing. • •• . : ;• •' ;, • Coloring book marks 20 years FARGO, N.D.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - The Civil War collides with the civil rights movement in Alabama chis weekend. A group that wants the South to once again split from the United States rallied Saturday at the Capitol amid waving Confederate lUgs, a day before PJ:eSident Clinton visits Selma to commem-. orate a landmark civil rights event. As much as ever, the regionalism and rebellion symbolized by the Confederate battle flag_is Juxtaposed against the dogged determination expressed in the old civil rights song "We Shall Overcome." . In a way, the two sides may feed off each other. "Extremists on one end of the political spectrum sore of need extremists on the other end;' said Jess Brown, a historian at Athens State University. · .

The rally was organized by the Tusc~oosa-based League of the South. The group, which clainu as many as 10,000 memben, issued a "Declaration ofSouthern Cultural Independence" as part ofits call for the SQuth to become a separate nation.

Anybody from Rockbridge Bath.<,Va., should know something about back roads. He made great progress, but soon ran out of asphalt. As ·they say in racing, he had nowhere to go. So he began cutting through backyards. "It could have been one of those 'Cops' videos," Mast said. "If only a helicopter had been watching." But his off-road odyssey didn't escape unnoticed, and he saw blue lights in his mirror. · · "It took me four .or five minutes to convince him he didn't need to arrest me;• Mast said. A few minutes later, Mast talked ltis way into an escort to the track. He made to the-drivers' meeting just as roll call began. "I can't pay what this is worth," he told the trooper moments earlier. "He laughed and said, 'This was my chance. I was running with a NASCAR driver, and you couldn't stay in my draft.' "I had this little car of rhine wide open, and that's all it would do," · · · · Mast said sheepishly. He finished 19th, part of an early season run of top-20 finishes.

If the ruckus smudged the state's film-friendly image, it also prompted some soul-searching in Burkittsville, a western Maryland village of 200 that is struggling with its unexpec.ted fame.

They barely did any shooting there; only two town scenes, featuring a road sign and a cemetery, ended up in the movi_e about three ' student filmmakers who supposedly disappeared while stalking the fi c.ti · tious Blair Witch. But when the mock documentary, made for Jusr $60,000, became a $140 million hit last summer, the town drew 'curiosity seekers who viaeo taped townspeople, wandered the nearby \voods, stole signs and vandalized to'mbstones.

Blair Witch tourism is creepier than the variety that the Maryland Eastern Shore town of Berlin has enjoyed as the setting for "The Runaway Bride," a 1999 romantic comedy featuring Richard Gere and Julia Roberts. "We had nothing but pleasant experiences,'' said Andrew Fulghum, Ber)in tow n administra~ tor. "We still h ave people visiting and wanting to see all the sites that were in the film." He said Berlin benefitted from the two-week shoot by leasing vehicles to the Paramount film crew and c harging the fUm makers for .-police protection. ·· Styer said Burkittsville could capitalize on its exposure, too, by negotiating with Artisan to give something back to the communjty. One of Cox's ideas: cobbleStone paving to enhance the town's old-time charm - and slow down Blair Witch to'urists. "The economic impact of this film could be somewhere between $7 million and $10 mil. lion ," Styer said.

My supporters and I have campaigned throughout the county for the past several weeks, distributing literature and askingfor your input on this process. We have als,o purchased several newspaper ads and.rsdio spots; all in an effort to give every county resident·a ~Iter idea of the attitudes, beliefs, and concepts·that I will bring to the sheriff's office. I'm sorry if I didn't have the privilege of meeting you personally, but I have also been fulfilling my job responsibilities at .the University of Rio Grande, where we recently completed an academy to provide )rained corrections officers to the Oallia and JacksOn County jails.. I write to you peisonally for one of the last times before the elc<:tiob to agai11 respectfully ask for your vote and support. As your elected sheriff, I will bring nearly three decades of law enforcement experience to the office, including 15 years experience as a department administrator, and 13 years experience as an admini.strator and instructor in training progra~. I know tbat being sheriff i~ an awesome rcsponslbility, but · . I am looking forward to the.challenge. I honestly feel that I can bring a fresh approac;h to. local law • enforcement, implementing new and exciting programs tbat ate designed to prevent criine and sa\le you money. , . Some of my proposals··include concentrating patrols on county and township roads, placing a greater Fmphasis on investigations and follow-Lips, cracking down on drugs by utilizing a K-9 unit ~nd entering into a drUg task force with surrounding CO!IIJties, linking schools with the sheriff's dqlartment and working with youth, and strengthening cri'!le prevention efforts with community-based programs. ILI'IIddition, I will create a citizens' committee designed tO live the public more .inpu,t into police policy making and, patrol deploymen\, and to foster a greater spirit of coopeiation'betwcen the residents and the department. Those of you with Internet acce~ will have the opportunity to visit a sheriff's department web site, where our policy manual, budget, goals and objectives, &~~d county crime statistics .will be available for your review. Also, deputies will have !he benefit of advanced trsining, which will help them to better serve you. Furthennore, both the administrative and corrections 'divisions of the sheriff's department will be tun in a smooth and cost-effective manner. The depuiies on the· front line who stand as the line of defense between you and tbe criminal element are the most important division of the sherift:'s department. But they cannoi pelfonn'their jobs'effc<:tively without the support of tbe adlrilnistration, every member of which must ensure that the day-to-day operations of the office arc conducted efficiently and fairly. Too, the highest standalds mus't be maintained in the county jail. While I do not believe in coddling inmates, I do believe in creating an environment in which the liability risk of the GQunty is reduced, and in doing e~rything in my power to remo~e the possibility for lawsuits that .coull! drain the taXpayer'• Yfallets. · ' . As sheriff, as in my campaign, I will' always be honest 'and straightfoward in delling with every one of you; I will never allow style to be'exi:hanled for substanec, photo opportunities to substitule ·~profcssionallaw enforcement, or politics to interfere wilh job. duties. The sheriff's .department doesn't belong to a sinsJe person or entity, bul is an organization funded by the taxpayers to serve all of the CO!IDty's residents and visitors. You desei'Ve to be represented by an effective and respected l~w enforcemeotagency, at)d no reason · exists to prevent your sheriff's department from being'the best in southem·Ohio. · • · In closing, I like· to think of this campaign an application proeess. You have had the opportunity to· review the resumes of different candidates, and I ask that you hire me to 'represent you.'
