Things· looking up for former military base town~

.•

By LESLIE MILLER
Associated Press Writer
AYER, Mails. - Hundreds of identi~al.ranch houses , lined up like soldiers at attention. stand eerily vacant along a road at Fort Devens where tanks
and transport trucks once rolled with troops.
It's a reminder of the past, when the Cold War fueled enormous defense
spending and vast military bases sprawled across the country like this one
35 miles outside Boston.
There is a hint of the future just down the road: Trendy sport utility vehicles ferry businessmen to jobs-at a software company housed in the old base's
intelligence headquarters.
Now simply named Devens, the former U.S. Army facility - -like others
closed nationwide .since 1988- is under civilian ownership. The transition
was painful at times, but things are looking up.
The old army fort, which once employed 7,000 people, boasts 39 busi, nesses and 1,300 private-sector jobs.
"Things were real bad for a year," said Corey Austin, who works at the
Exxon service station in nearby Ayer. "Now, they've taken up the entire work
force ."
According to a Defense Department Web site, 20 of the 97 bases slated
for closure across the country have successfully been converted to civilian
use. The gove'l'ment estimated last April that some 45,000 new jobs have
been created in the abandoned hulks . .

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP)Lawmakers are calling on the governor to investigate why an 8-yearold witness in a murder case was

The bodies of Leroy Brown Jr.
and his mother, Karen Clarke, 30,

Leroy, a second-grader at Read
School, was the state's key witness

times.
At the time of the murder, Peeler was out on bond after being
accused of auempting to murder
Snead in a drive-by shooting. The

The developer of a housing subdivision near Tuppers Plains has
filed a $120 million lawsuit against Ohio Valley Bank of Gallipolis.
A complaint filed last week in Meigs County Common Pleas Court
by Frank Herald, Jr., Middleport, against the bank, alleges that the
bank is In default' and breach of a line of credit agreement for failing
to apply portions of principal borrowed to outstanding interest payments.
"
Herald's complaint, filed by a Columbus attorney, 'alleges thai he
and the bank's senior vice:president, E . ·Richard Mahan, entered into kn
oral agreement granting Herald a line of credit of $1 .5 million to
develop the Apple Tree Estates subdivision - located on lhe . former

Cline fruit farm and other acreage in Olive, Orange and Chesler Townships- and to. develop houses on the site.
The compla1nt states that OVB refused to release funds to pay
materials bills and that he and OVB later executed a written loan
agreement in the amount of $1,294,000, secured by a mortgage.
Herald alleges, however, that the bank continued to refuse disbursements, which prevented him from paying his suppliers and laborers.
.
He is asking for judgment in the amount of $70 million, and $50
million in punitive damages.
Jeffrey E. Smith, President and .Chief Operating Officer of Ohio
Valley Bank, said Saturday that the bank had received and reviewed
the complaint, and plans to respond, but made no further comment on
the case .

Dinkelacker said he wants proof
that the surgery takes place on
Monday.
"You all be prepared to go to
trial Tuesda'y if he does not have
surgery," Dinkelacker said.
If Flynt has the surgery, the trial
will be April 5.
Prosecutors said they would not
oppose a delay if there was a legitimate medical reason.
Flynt was not at today's hearing.
On Monday, he held a news conference in Los Angeles to release an
affidavit from the f9rmer wife Rep.
Bob Barr, R-Ga., who. believed he
was having an affair in the mid1980s with a woman who is now
his wife. Barr called it an attempt
to divert attention from the Senate
trial of President €linton.

impeachment trial greeting them

ByALANFRAM
Associated Preas Writer

WASHING'ION (AP) - With. its
obscure procedures and customs, the
Senate can be a curious place for any
new arrival at any time.
But this year's baptism for eight
freshmen involves plunging into the
century's only presidential impeachmell) trial.
Freshman Sen. George \binovich,
R.Ohio, said, "It's a quick way to make
you understand that you're a pan of one
of the most important · bodies in the
world. I get goose bumps thinking about
it."

"You don't know your way around
lhe underground tunnels yet, but you
find yourself amidSt one of the great
constitutional confrontations of all
time," said Sen. Peter Fitzgerald, R-DI.,
another newcomer.
·
Normally, newly minted senators
would be spending a relatively leisurely
January focusing on hiring staff members, house-hunting and learning the
ways of the Senate.
Instead, they have stepped straight
into the vonex of a constitutional, political and media maelstrom. Their schedules bulge with meetings, interview
requests and time for poring ClVer stacks

Flynt's attorneys on Monday
filed a motion saying Flynt needs
surgery to torrect a urological
problem common among paraplegics. Flynt, who has been in a
wheelchair since he was shot in
1978, may require more than two
months to recover from the procedure, his attorneys said.'
An affidavit from Dr. Stuart D.
Boyd, professor of urology at the
University of Southern California,
was included in motion asking a
postponement.
"In my opinion, Mr. Flynt needs
to be treated surgically as soon as
possible," Boyd wrote. "Mr. l'lynt
had ""pressed the -desire lo delay
hi~ surgery until after the trial . ...
However, his failure to undergo
surgery as scheduled would expose
him to a risk of further medical
problems of greater seriousness."
Flynt, SS, . and his brother,
Jimmy, 49, were indicted April 7
on charges of pandering obscenity,
disseminating material harmful to a
juvenile, conspiracy and engaging
in a pattern of corrupt activity. If
convicted on all charges, each
could face 24 years in prison and
$65,000 in fines.
The charges are related to the
sale of sexually explicit videotapes
at the downtown Hustler Magazine
&amp; Gifts More that Jimmy Flynt
manages.

How much bad influence do parents have on hubby's behavi·or? Too muc~ _
Ann
Landers
1997. LD1 Anteles TitDeS

SyndicMC aAd Creator•
Syndka~e .

Dear Ann Landers: When 'I
married ''Glenn" eight years ago, I
knew his parents were divorced,
but I didn't realize they both had
been married and c!ivorced four
times.
Last year, Glenn and I were having a difficult periop in our relationship. I decided to talk to his
parents about it, hoping they could
provide some help and insight.
Instead, I was shocked by their altitude.
When I told my mother-in-law
that Glenn, age 36, had declared
bankruptcy for the second time, she
said the banks were at fault for giving him money and charging such
high interest rates.
When I !old her he has a gambiing problem, she said there was
nothing wrong with gambling, that
a 'lot of people make a living playing poker, and that somebody has
to win and it could be him. When I
explained that he always spends
more than he makes, she said, " So
what? A lot of people have that
problem."
My father-in-law compared
Glenn's gambling addiction to
investing money in the stock market, saying, "Glenn just takes different risks." Both in-laws told me
there are plenty of women who
would be · willing to overlook his
addiction. They also let me know
they will be leaving him their
entire estate (over a half-million
dollars) when they die, so we won't
have to worry about money.
Frankly, at the rate Glenn gambles,
a half-million dollars wouldn ;I last
very long.
. I was appalled at my in-laws'
lack of any moral conviction. They

sprouts, used as a garnish on everything from salads to hamburgers,
sickened an estimated 20,000 people
in the United States in two salmonella outbreaks in 1995, researchers
reported today.
Consumers "should consider this
danger when deciding whether to eat
alfalfa sprouts," said the researchers
led by Dr. Chris Van Beneden, an
epidemiologist at the Centers for
Di sease Control and Prevention .
Although new methods to . prevent salmonella poisoning are being
.tried, the researchers said they may
not be adequate. Their work . was
reported in today 's Journal of the
American Medical Association. ·
Salmonella is a strain of bacteria
found in animal feces. It generally
causes nausea but ·can be fatal in
older people, infants and those with
weak immune systems.
.
Tainted alfalfa sprou t seeds
caused a r9g5 outbreak in the
Northwest a~d another one that ·

Health risk from public·toilets
Question: Last week, I learned from a couple of R.N.s that toilet seat covers have iw health benefits at all. They said that there
is no scientific evidence that a paper product will provide any
protection from disease/germs. They really only absorb the urine.
What is your opinion on this?
Answer: All of us must use public restrooms occasionally.
Some of these facilities are carefully maintained while others are
far from spotless. The clean ones make me less uncomfortable
while some of the dirtier ones make me uncomfortable just
standing there. Actually sitting on the toilet is an "extreme emergency only" option.
The health risks from use of a public restroom are .principally
from the bacteria, lice, or viruses left by previou,s users. It is well
· known that these organisms can survive on hard surfaces fer an
extended period of time. · As example, the common cold virus
may lurk on doorknobs, faucet handles and similar objects for as
long as a month. Bacteria are less hardy. Depending on th~ particular type, they typically only survive for hours or days. Obviously, being the "next' in line" at the restroom can offer some
unappealing opportunities.
Despite what might appear to be the gloomy prqspect of infec•
tion from use of a public restroom, catching an infection this way ·
·,
is actually a ·rare event. This. is especially true fot those who are
·
I
in good health.
.
There are a few documented cases of hospitalized individuals
contracting infectious diarrhea because the previous person in
that room had the disease. These infections could have been
transmitted by ways other than an improperly cleaned toilet, so
these few cases remain as lessons for the infection control teams
of hospitals, not worries for you and me.
Bacteriologic studies can recover disease-causing microbes
from toilet bowels and seats. Despite this, there is no scientific
literature that shows these are transll)itted to subsequent users in
sufficient numbers to actually cause illness. Therefore, your
nurse friends are correct. Paper toilet seat covers really do noth'
ing beneficial. Carefully washing your hands after using the
bathroom is far more important.
·
Here are a few practical tips for you ·to consider. As a general
principle, if the toilet appears clean, it is clean enough to use.
However, I strongly recommend that you avoid direct contact
·with someone else's blood. stool or urine. !f you are faced with
the dilemtJ!a of having a soiled toilet as your only option in a
"potty emergency," there are several steps you should take. First,
''
while being carefu) to avoid getting any of the 0 bvious contamination on you, wipe it from the toilet seat with tissue and flush it
away~.
Then, u·se a paper toilet seat cover, or, even better, quickly
clean th seat. This can be accomplished in one of three ways:
. soap a.water, Lysol, or most effectively - diluted househcild
blea . Then, wash your hands when you are done. •

Echo from
the past
By Phillip Alder
In August 1979, I attended the
European Bridge League Jumor
Camp tn Ghent, Belgtum, gtvtng lee·
tures and partnertng some of the
youngsters It was a great week.
Th~re were also sports events, and I
was lucky to draw Louk Verhees,
from the Netherlands, tn the tenms
tournament He won the trophy Stn·
gle-handedly. I thought he was a pro
m the makmg, but perhaps the regt·
men necessary for success on the errcut! dtdn't appeal to hrm. Now he has
returned to bridge, comfortably Wtn·
ning the Dutch lndtvidual trtle last
year
Verhees scored a top on thts deal,
whrch htghhghts pairs btddtng for the
21 st century
East's sequence, Stayman followed by two hearts over two dia·
moods, showed a weak hand with
five hearts and four or five spades.
Now North made an aggressive balancing double. Verhees, South, mrght
have gambled a pass, but btd two
spades desptte knowrng he would be
m a 4·3 fit. East went for the throat
West led 'the spade king. After
wrnnmg wrth dummy's ace, Verhees
played a heart to hrs etght. West won
wtth the queen and took his other two
maJor-sutt wmners, but was now
endplayed Perhaps he should have
tned a decept1ve dramondJack, but he
selected a low club. Verhees won
wtth dummy's queen, played a club
to hrs ace, ruffed a heart tn the dum·
my, cashed hts two diamond winners
endtng rn hand, and ruffed hrs last
heart. That was seven tncks rn , and
he still had the spade Jack to come
Smashmg!

Shortages· in blood types t~roughout the nation ' have prompted the
organization that supplies blood for local hospitals 'to join in a national
appeal.
.
·
··
,
. Severe winter ·weather 'has, impacted donations and supplies. and the
American Red Cross Tri-State Blood1Services reported it's operating on a
h~lf-day supply of blood; when normally its inventory should be three
days' worth.
.
'
As a resul~ the Red Cross is urging anyone )NII!Itlng to make a donalion prior to the ne~t bloodmobile visits.to the ar~,ll:i ~e to the ,Tr·SII,le
BIOOII Service!i' office lit ·lUI Veterapa Me · · Bfvd:;' 'ltii'ntinaton;

"t.i&gt;cally, we Have joined the national appeal," said Red Cross
spokesperson Cheryl Geraely. "The appeAl beJIR on Monday, but so far
we have not collected nearly enough to get us out of the hole we're in."
Tri-State Blood Services is currently lacking in 0 positive, A positive,
0 negative, A negative and 8 negative, Qergely safd.
.
The organization supplies blood to hospitals in ~ 32-county area of
Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky, facilities Gergely said ar!' unable to
access reliable blood donations from other Sources.' The region served by
·Tri-State' Blood Services includes Galli a, Meigs and Mason counties.
In southwest Ohio, a Dayton-based blood supply center's stock is so
low that the 26 hospitals drawing on its supply havelbeen asked to l!elay
elective.surgery until the shortage ends. However, life-saving surgery will
proceed as usual, 1C!19rding to the hospitals.
.cl
.
"All local hospitaiS·depend on the Red Cross because they don't have
the approval or the capability to access other blood'' supplles," Gergely
said.
'
"That's not to say that Red Cross blood organizatipns aren 't helping
c:ac:h other, but in the midwest, the weather has affe&lt;;tCd those organizattons and they don 'I have the supply to help us out," she added.
Gergely estimated it willt.ake the local blood servicc;s twoweeks tq get
its supply to the necessary level.
'
· The Huntington blood services office is open for dOnations Tuesdays
and Thursdays from 2:30-6:30 p.m., and Wednesdays alld Fridays from 9
a.m.·l p.m.
The next bloodmobile stop in the immediate area will be at Southern
Ohio Coal Co.'s main office on State Route 689 at Point Rock on Jan. 19
from J-5 p.m, The bloodmobile will be at the Pleasant' Valley Wellness
Center in Point. Pleasant, W.Va., on Jan. 27 from t-6 p.m., and in Gal·
lipolis on Feb. 18 from 11:30 a.m.-6 p.m. at St. Peter's Episcopal Church.
Even in non-critical situations, the Red Cross encq'lfages people to
give blood when they can, Gergely said. Donors must bnt lesst 17 years
old, in good general health and·not have given blood
in the past 56
days of their visil

· The report of high levels of a contaminant In Middleport's water supply may .have been the result of
ye~rs of improper testing.
The concentration of thrichloroethylene in 'water
samples from Middleport's Well No. 4 has been discussed by village officials and the Ohio EPA since
brought to light by a citizens' group last sunlmer.
.
Sampling performed by the village in accordance
with. EPA requirements has shown levels of
trichloroethylene as high as 3.6 microliters per gallon. According to the EPA, a level of 5 ml/g is considered dangerous.
·
Levels of the compound have fluctuated during
quarterly te~ts, but have averaged around 2 ml/g.
Testing performed in early December, however,
showed a nondetectable level of the chemical, raising questions as to how the latest sample was collected.
According to Village Supervisor Brent Manley,
the latest sample was collected at. the well head, ·
while past samples had been collected at a 'yard
hydrant. Testing from the hydrant could have resulted in samples that were contaminated, according to ·
Manley.
·
··
The yard hydrant is located some 55 feet from the
well head, and the water was likely contaminated
somewhere between the wei\ and the hydrant, resulting in inaccurate VOC levels.
The EPA recommends testing at the well head ' .
while the well is ·pumping. At Monday's meeting of · .
Middleport Village Council, Manley said that water '
samples will now be collected from the well bead,
and will continue to be collected quarterly as recom·
11)ended by the EPA.
'
· Manley said that he had met with Jeffrey Crisler
of the Ohio EPA, who had reviewed the sampling
methods used by the village in collecting the 'December sample.
"These test results are accurate,~ Manley said.
Crisler's. visit was part of annual visit to review
the village's water system.
Trichloroethylene, a volatile organic compound,
is a colorless, or·blue 'organic.liq.uid J!!OSI often used ..
to remove grease from fabricated metal parts anil
textiles.
Crisler said last fall that the water supply in Mid·
dleport posed no immediate danger to customers, but
the EPA, in printed bulletins, has said that long-term
exposure · in high concentrations can cause cancer
