The ac•ress, who plays nurse Carol Hathaway, said she plans to leave NB C's emerge ncy room drama after the 1999-2000 season and "go back home to New York." ''I'm homesick. I want to ·get back on tbe stage and do some independent lilms," Ms. Margulies said Wednesday on "The Howie Mandel Show." " You are all goi ng to be happy with tbe Margulies way my character turns out," she added·. She isn't the only one leaving "ER." Ms. Margulies said she cried after George Clooney, her "ER" love interest, filmed his last sce ne as a regular last week. He ended up comforting her later in the lobby of a Chicago hotel. " He was gi ving me thi s big hug, say ing 'It's OK. I'll be back,'" the actress said. Clooney's final weekl y appearance as Dr. Doug Ross airs Feb. 18, although he hasn't ruled o ut guest spots. Ms. Margulies' contract will keep her on the air through May 2000, NBC said. \ The Dally Sentinel • Page 9 Pomeroy • Middleport, Ohio 80 Auction and Flea Market "uouon Fel)ruary 51h, 6 P.M. 241 Thlra Avonuo, Gallipolis.
