Beat of the Bend ...

By Bob Hoeflich
•

Well, I declare!
A reader called inquiring about the date that the Ohio River
froze ·and became an· ice rink for residents. People walked across
the river from Ohio to West Virginia and an auto or two were taken
onto the ice.
·
Well, I got a variety of answers.
.
I find it interesting that many of us do keep track of the flood ing Ohio and it does happen frequently, but no one apparently has
kept any record of the frozen river and that doesn 't happen an that
often. If it happened today undoubtedly a mass of photographs
would surface .since it would be one of"those "Kodak" moments.
People didn't take all that many pictures in years past.
Bob Thompson of Pomeroy says that the river froze over in
1936. He lived in Cheshire at the time. Bob .remembers temperatures far below freezing at the time and also recalls seeing a, photograph of a car on the· ice . The car belonged to the father of George
Shamblin and was taken onto the ice by George.
Henry Bahr also went for January, 1936, and he was II years old
at the time. He came to Pomeroy with his father and remembers
seei ng a mule pulled wagon come across the frozen river, travel up
to the coal tipple on E. Main St., and then remrned to West Virginia
when the wagon was loaded. Bahr says he recalls the summer preceding the freeze was hot and dry.
Homer Baxter believes the freeze came in 1948 and Happy Call
says that it all happened in t~e winter of 1939-40. Viq;inia Hoyt
also says it was the winter of 1939-40, probably in January, 1940,
and recalls watching the skaters and traffic on the ice.
Helen Nease, who is 94, didn 'tget too involved in the current
question but remembers that the river froze over in 1918. She
remembers that a resident of Racine hooked his horses to a sleigh
and traveled across the ice to pick up students from West Virginia ·
who normally traveled by boats to get to classes in Racine. Back
then the loc ks and dams hadn't been constructed and the river was
shallow at times allowing it to freeze more·easily, Helen reports.
So we do have some differences of opinion but keep the faith,
it's all going to work.our.
It isn 't all that long until Valentine's Day and there are a couple
of upcoming events I wanted to mention to you. ·
·
· Sui and Fannie Bigley will be observing their 52nd wedding
anniversary on the most' romantic day of the year. Cards and messages will reach them at 67926 SR 124, Reedsville, Ohio 45772.
Out Rutland way, an open house will be held on February 14,
which is on a Sunday, at the Rutland UnitedMethod.ist Church, to
mark the 90th birthday of Marcia Denison. Friends and family
members are invited to be on hand and light refreshments will be
served. The 14th was chosen as the day for the observance
although Mrs. Denisdn's 90th will actually fall on Feb. 20.
Ann Boso lost a sister to death recently as the result of Lou
Gehrig's disease. Some years back another sister underwent an illness with similar symptoms but it was never diagnosed.
Ann 's wondering if that too couldn't have been the same ailment
althoug~ the sister who died earlier did develop another sickness
that took her life.
. Seems that infom1ation and background on the Gehrig disease is ·
hmtted and Ann would like_to know more about it and particularly
1s mterested m knowmg tf tt has a tendency to run in families.
If you can enlighten her, do give Ann a ring. ·· She would appreciate hearing from you.
I'll see you on the sunny side of the stre~t. Do keep smiling.

Commissioner Jeffrey 'lbomton said Friday that the

answers to their questions about the roadway changes.•
In addition to the county commissioners, participants

exactly what changes will be made in the lOcal roadways;
"We want people who are affected by this project to
come out to compare what the roads look like now, and

finished," Thornton said.
The neo,y plans include map drawings for the remain:

the Ritchie aridge at Ravenswood, W.Va. Included in
the changes are the remainder of an interchange at State
Route 7 at Five Points, a major new design at Bashan
·Road, and the reconfiguration and relocation of numerous township and county roads in the Morning Star;
Bash·an, and Portland areas.
The state has also begun preliminary discussions witli
the county about the abandonment of several sections of

. 'What do you want and what
are you going to do now?'

••

We view February 2, 1999 as a sad day for Gallia County because of the
defeat of the city school levy. we ha;e a lot of friends who voted against it
because they had good reasons, although we do not agree with their vote.
_• . What surprises us is the tremendous organization and campaign against the
· levy. Our question to the individuals who organized this campaign is "What
• do you want and what are you going to do now?"
:
Our community is on the verge of stepping into the 21st century with
progress. The problem is, everyone wants progress but no one wants to
change anything or pay for it. There is no progress without change. There is
going to be no progress in Gallia County without change and improvement
in our ability to educate our children.

the levy. It is a challenge to every citizen of Gallia County to get involved
in the betterment of our community, especially education. It is ~asy to be
against an issue, but uniting and working for progress and our future is the
challenge.
P.S. We are certainly not going to make any progress in Gallia County
with the way certain areas look. For example, take a drive on Jackson Pike
(Spring Valley !lfea) and Mitchell Road.

••

In respond to all the letters to the editor, ·about our school systein in Galli a County and the Gallipolis City Schools. I fail to understand why all the
schools in the area are in such a state of ruin.
Ever since I moved back to this area from Virginia in 1991 I've heard of
some new bond issue to finance our school systems.
About every year or so our taxes or something else goes up to ·help out
our schools. But you don't ever see any new changes or improvements in our
schools. One of my questions is: what has happened to all of our tax money
and lottery money that has been colle~ted over the years for this I'IJrpoSC?
You read in the Tribune where our school board officials go out of our area
to hire consulting firms to make recommendations about how to upgrade and
improve the system.
All of this costs thousands of dollars and we,still don't see anything being
done. One other question that seems to -be spoken about throughout our
school area is: why can't the two school systems combine forces and Work
together for a better over ali school system? The city school system now
comprises about one third or more of the Galli a County area to make up its
district.
The population of Galli a County and Gallipolis total about 35,000 people
which does not justify having all of these different schools and additional
expenses. By combining forces the money saved over a ten year period by
elimination of some positions, such as principals, superintendents, health
care, retirement benefits for people that were no longer needed in the over·
all total. school systems would be some where in the area of $1,000,000.00
which could be used to improve the overall school system.
Now that the school bond levy has failed again for the Gallipolis City
School District, the children are the ones that have lost out. So why doesn't
our county and school officials bury the hatchet and work together as one for
all, all for one. I think overall the people of Gallia County want'a better education for our children.
So citizens of Gallia County.and Gallipolis, lets wake up and think about
·the future of ourselves and our children's educations. So that they may govern our future.

Are regional malls becoming relics?
By JOHN CUNNIFF
AP Bullne.. Analyst

NEW YORK (AP) - Those
regional shopping malls, thronged
with shoppers, walkers, movie·
goers, students, and iri some
instances, museum-attendees, will
be mere piles of dust before the 21st
century is done.
.
That, to be sure, is a long-term
forecast, but one destined to have
immediate results, coming as itdocs
from a real estate adviser who has
been involved in ihe management of
properties worth billions of dollars.
" Regional shopping malls are
comprised of tons of inflexible,
immovable bricks and mortar," says
Allen Cymrot, the protagonist of this
story. "Sociological changes are
resilient and constant," he says.
He argues that the regional mall
concept evolved in the post-World
War II years before discount and destination (or stand-alone stores such·
as shopping clubs), before the surge
in catalogs and now the lnl!:rnet.
He envisions the day in 2099
when archeologists uncover the dust

of what onee were thriving centers
of social and business activity.
"Overblown," counters Steven
Wechsler, who heads the National
Association of Real F,state Investment Trusts, many of whose mem·
bell! conceived, built and manage
some pf the nation's largest malls.
Mall managers, he said, are
acutely aware of change, measuring
it day-by-day and adapting as quickly. "Society changes and commerce
adapts," he 'said. Malls, he assured,
. will mail)lain "a social and positive
setting."
"It's denial," said Cymrot, who
has headed two national real estate
investment companies and is a past
chairman of the National Multi housing Council. "They know what
they're stuck with."
·
He lists it among reasons why so
many mall owners took their opera·
lions public. "They extracted equity
and transferred their ownership risk
and future obsolescence to the public shareholders," he says.
Cymrot, now an independent real
estate investor and adviser to real

estate concerns, suggests that the tains that malls already have shown
expensive fixed sites of malls mean they can adapt. Among other things,

WELLSTON - The end is in
sight for the State Route 32 mine
excava1ion project in Jackson County, with contractors expected to begin
pouring the concrete driving surface
nex1 week. ·
Ohio Department of Trans porta- ·
lion and Kokosing Construction Co.
officials met last week to discuss lhe
project's progress. The project has
caused the closing of 32 near Wellston since Nov. 25. .
The bulk of the meeting, ·ODOT
spokesperson ,Holly Snedecor-Gray
eKplained, revolved arou11.d issues in
the application of a concrete driving
surface. Representatives of two local
concrete companies joined ODOT
and Kokosing officials to discuss the
manufaclure and deiivery of concrete.

Because February isn't nonnally

10 ensure the concre te stays w:i.nn

For example, the concrete companies
will make lhe concrete with healed

After the concrete is poured,
Kokosing crews will cover il with

If all goes as planned, Sned~cor-Gray
said, concrete pouring will begin
Wednesday, Feb. I 0. The concrete
work, including pouring the roadway
shoulders, is expected to take I 0
days.

Crews continued to place a layer
of storie that will serve as the base for
lhe concrete driving surface. Kokosing officials estimate crews will fin ish putting down 1he stone this weekend, and will then begin preparing the
stone base for the concrete application.
Even after the dri ving surface has

said.

"Jusl for starters, crews will have

of roadway," said ODOT Districl 9
Deputy Director John F. Hagen.
"ODOT crews will also have to re-

erect the road signs before the route

ODOT and Kokosing officials
agree the r0 ute will likely be

Americans see Lewinsky's.taped testimony for first time
By WRY MARGASAK
ANocleMcl P-. Writer
WASHINGTON (AP)- Broadcast across the world
Saturday from the well of the Senate, Monica Lewinsky
~unted via videotape her story of a presidential affair
and cover-up to Americans seeing her testify for the first
time and to senators who must decide the fate of President Clinton.
" I knew I would deny the relationship," the former
White House intern declared.
House prosecutors juxtaposed the image of Ms.
I,:ewinsky, dressed in a dark dress with her hand raised
to tell the truth, and the now-famous ·footage of the January 1998 news conference in which Clinton denied sexual rel,ations with "that woman, Ms. Lewinsky."
House prosecutor James Rogan implored senators to
listen to "a bright lady whose life has forever been
marked by the most powerful man on earth.''
" If her testimony is truthful, then the president commilled the offenses in the articles of impeachment,"
llogan added, calling today 's extraordinary session at
the impeachment trial the "first and only chance" to
· hear from witnesses with " direct knowledge of the
unlawful conduct of the president of the United States."
The prosecutors, denied the chance to call witnesses
for live testimony at the trial, were the first to play
excerpts from three videotaped depositions they took
: earlier this week. Three presidential la~yers were to
make their own video presentations later tn the day.
Though many senators had seen the tapes before,
they watched the four television screens posted at the

' '
'

front of the chamber. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.,
watched intently as the prosecutors rolled tape of Ointon's denial. She has said that statement "shattered" her
trust in the president.
Ms. Lewinsky, a pearl necklace around her neck and
her face framed by her dark hair, looked directly at her
inquisitor, Rep. Ed Bryant, as she fielded questions and
gave short crisp answers. Frequently she answered simply, "Correct" or "Yes." Her image played against a
dull gray background.
Calm throughout, she looked down when asked to
recount a conversation she had had with presidential
friend Vernon Jordan in which she expressed that
"sometimes I had frustrations with" Clinton.
"He sort of jokingly said to me, 'You know what
your proble~ is, don't deny it, you are in love wtth him .'
It was sort of lighthearted nature," Ms. Lewinsky
recounted. " I probably blushed or giggled or something."
She said that on the night Clinton called her to say
she might be subpoenaed in the Paula Jones case, the
president spoke of the earlier cover stories they had
come up with to hide their aff~ir.
She told prosecutors that at the time of the Dec. 17,
1997, call, she was well familiar " because it was part of
the pattern of the relationship." Prosecutors contend
Clinton was trying to encourage her to lie, but Ms.
Lewi~sky has adamantly testified he n.e~er instructed her
to do so and that she came to that dectston on her own.
"From what llearne'\ in that conversation, I thought
to myself I knew I would deny the relationship," she

answered.
'
The tape showed a young woman at, ease with
answering now-familiar questions, a marked change
from the distraught former intern said to bave frequently cried when first thrust into the imJlCB'hment crisis a
year ago.
.
When asked early in the de~ition .whether she was
resident of California, she qui'pped, "I'm· not sure exactly where I'm a resident, but that iS where I'm liv,fng."
Though Americans have said repeatedly in surveys
that they want the impeachment proceedings ended,
tllany were expee1ed to tune in today to get their first
· glimpse of Ms. Lewinsky speaking. The trial was carried
live by CNN, C-SPAN, PBS and CBS among others.
Senators observed a moment of silence at the start of
the session to grieve the loss of their longtime legislative
clerk, Raymond Scott Bates, 50, who was killed while
crossing a street Friday night. Bates' deep voice called
· the roll of Senate votes, including those taken at the trial.
"In the quietness, we can hear his voice call the roll,
read proposed legislation and most ofall express his car~
ing friendship," The Rev. Lloyd Ogilvie, th~ Senate
chaplain, said in paying tribute with a prayer.
'
The prosecutors also showed excerpts from the testimony of Jordan and White House aide Sidney Blumenthal.
There also was tape of Clinton testifying that it was
his secretary, Betty Currie, who asked Jordan to help
Ms. L.e~insky find a job. "I knew that .he mel with hef•
and I thtnk Betty suggested he meet wtth her.... That s
all I know about that," the president told Mrs. Jones'
lawyers back in January 1998.

But Jordan, his dCep voice resonating on the videotape, made clear in his testimony, taken TUesday, that he
was aeling direelly on behalf of tbe president. "There
was no question but that he asked me to help and that .he
askedotbers to help," the Washi~gton power b11&gt;ker satd.

·Hussein's son assumes
power as Jordan
:holds vigil for king
AMMAN, Jordan (AP)- The powers of the monarchy passed from the
·dying King Hussein to his oldest son Saturday, shifting to a political novice
the job of maintaining Jordan's role as an anchor
of moderation in a turbulent region.
,---The transfer of authority over the military and
Cabinet closed nearly a half-century of rule by
·Hussein, who survived coup and assassination
attempts and waged war against Israel but later
·made peace.
·
,
Weeping crowds kept vigil outside Hussein's
. hospital and people piled_flowers under the king's
·pictures across Amman, but attention focused on
the untested Crown Prince Abdullah.
Even before his swearing in by the Cabinet,
·government leaders strenuously tried to present
· the image of a seamless transition to the 37-yearold Abdullah, who was educated in Britain and
the United States.
"The constitutional vacuum has to be filled,"
said Information Minister Nasser Judeh.
At stake .is Jordan's pivotal role as a reliable Western ally and key supporter of M1ddle East peace efforts. Persian Gulf states, longtime financial
backers of Jordan, also worry about npples from any upheavals in the strategically located but resource-poor kingdom ruled by Hussein since 1952.
Gravely ill from cancer, Hussein was on a respirator and his liver and single remaining kidney had failed, said a statement from one of his physicians,
•Dr. S:imir·Farrij. He said the king's heart and brain remained "intact" but
did not elaborate. Sources had said earlier that the king's brain had ~eased
functioning.
•
Hussein had been under sedation since Wednesday, after a bone marrow
transp!ant failed in the United States, said a medical source, who spoke on
condtlton of anonym1ty. Death was expected once cancer reached his heart
"in a matter of hours or days," the source sa1d.
'
A physician who paid a personal visit to the king Saturday, Dr. Daoud
Hanania, told Associated Press Television News that no medical measures
~ere being_taken to cle~n~ his body of toxins building up from the failed
hver and ktdney. Hanama ts not a member of the team treating Hussein.
· A cancer_ specialist, Dr. Am a Rohatiner at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in
U:&gt;ndon, satd someone m Hussein's condition could survive "for some
weeks" depending on factors such as the state of his heart and lungs. But she
.added, "We have-to assume that King Hussein will die soon."
: Hussein's American-born wife, Queen Noor, wanted to move the 63year-old king fr?m the hospital to the palace. But physicians advised against
.tt, the source satd.
.~e Cabin~t. bestowed_Abdullah with all royal authority, including the
ab1hty to mobthze the m1htary, dism1ss parliament and name Cabinet ministers.
'
Hussein himself rose to power in a similar fashion. Cabinet leaders"
declared his father, Tala!, unfit because of a mental illness in 1952 and handed power to the 16-year-old heir.
last month, -Hussein named his eldest son as successor, bypassing his
brother Hassan, who had been groomed for the throne for 34 years. Hussein
re!".'rtedly accused Hassan of overstepping his authonty by trying to purge
mthtary off1cers and ambassadGrs .
. Abdullah, a career md1t~ry officer, lacks his father's deep political and
dtplomatlc expenence, leavmg some experts wondering if he will be able to
negot1ate the complex web of the Middle East.
But Abdullah also bnngs some new elements.
H1s w1.fe •. Rania, comes from a prominent Palestinian family on the West
Ban_k. Thts could help relations with Jordan's large Palestinian refugee populatJon,. wh1ch opposes Jordan's 1994 peace treaty with Israel.
•
Pers1an Gulf leade rs .also were quick to show support for Abdullah. Their
pledges of resumed a1d and strong political ties ended eight years of
.estrangement fo ll owmg Hussein's perceived tilt toward Iraq during the 1991
GulfWar.
1 •
. Abdullah was expected to st1ck closely to his father 's pro-Western poliCies.

"I feel ltke the team 's on a roll ,"

an all-out, pedal-to-the-metal sprint
to the fintsh.
"You've got to stand on the gas,"
he s.aid. "You've got to have the car

GALLIPOLIS - It might be called a total learning
experience, as children of all ages come to the Paint
CrCek Baptist Church every WedneSday night for a
tutoring program. In one comer pre - schoolers learn
' the alphabet, while high schoolers tackle chemistry
problems across the room.

The program, according to organizer Babette
Braxton, "Is a wonderful opportunity for everyone •
children, parents, the citu~ch and community volunteers. We're all ,working together to help the ctlildren
of our community succeed."
Braxton and her sister, Rosano Hollinshed, had the

Braxton beams when she hears such comments.
"We really get down to their levels and help them
learn. If they see that we as adults value education,
they will too. We hope that more children will take
advantage of this opportunity. We want to reach as
many children as we can."
Still, Braxton knows her limitation. Laughing she

next meeting of the local planning committee at her Fisher
Street home at 7:30p.m., on Tuesday, Feb. 23 .
Anyone wishing to help is most certainly welcome -to attend
the meeting.
·
I understand refreshments wiJ.I be served and they are usually so good that · they alone are worth your attending the
·
,
planning session.
Organist George Hall has been 'booked to provide music
during this year's banquet anJ for dancing afterwards.
Two scholarships will be awarded and colored photos of
reunion classes will again be taken in the time lapse between

Zoo's .fertility clinic could be
African elephants' last
chance for dying race
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Keep. ers at the Indianapolis Zoo are treating two pregnant African elephants
- Kubwa and Ivory - as if they
were their species' last hope.
They almost could be. Fewer
than 500,000 of the creatures remain
in lhe wild, and fewer than 300 are
1n zoos worldwide, according to the
International Species Information
System.
Although past efforts to breed the
animals in captivity have largely
failed - only four have been born at
taos in the past decade- zookeepers hope a new artificial inseminati on technique could reverse the
dwindling numbers .
Without a successful breeding
program, " in 20 years we may not
have any elephants left in captivity,"
said Debbie Olson, the Indianapolis
Zoo's director of elephant conserva-

Town Hall. The couple then honeymooned in Asheville, NC.

can hi stmy and can attribute part of
their success to Mr. Barnes. James
MadisonJ3ell was born in Gallipolis
in 1826. The other man, Richard
Harvey Cain, was bam in Greenbri- ·
'
er.County, Virginia in 1825.
Cain moved with his parents to
Gallipolis in \ 83 \. He eventually
enrolled in the schoo l of Mr. Barnes.
At an early age both men learned
a ski lL Bell became a plasterer and
Cain worked at the Gal lipolis steamboat landing. In hi s tee ns, Cain got

'

plantations before the Civil War.
Cain also established the South
Carolina Leader newspaper, \Vhich
he edited from 1866to 1872. ·
He passed on his controL of the
newspaper when he was elected to
Congress in 1872. ·
That first year Cain became an
advocate for Civi I Rights legislation
and to that end he gave a much quoted speech on the floor of the House
of Representatives about his experiences of being disc riminated
aga inst.
Ironically the worst di scrimination he faced was in the nation's
capital itself. He passed up the nom ination for the 44th Congress but
was encouraged to run for the 45th
Congress.
He was elected and became a ·
strong advocate of the federal govertllnent having a role in public edu cation , both for blacks and whites .
He also advocated the emigration of
blacks to Liberia.
In 1878 Cain returned to the private sector where he was quickly
e lected a bishop in the AME Church.
He died in 1887 in Washin gto n. D.C.
James Madiso.n Bell left Gallipolis in 1842 to go to Cincinnati . Here
he furthered his ed ucation and practiced plastering.
From 1854 to 1860 Bell li ved in

Chatham, Canada. It was there that
he became an associate of John
Brown. Much of the corre spondence
penaining to the raid on Harper's
Ferry conducted by Brown went
through Mr.· Bell .
In 1860 Bell moved to San Francisco, perhaps fearing recrimination
for his role in the John Brown raid.
It was here Bell ~rved as a writer
and plasterer. Several of his early
poems were wriuen in San' Francisco.
· After the Civil War, Bell moved .
to Canada and then to Toledo, Ohio.
Allthrougllthese years. Bell continued to practice the trade that he
learned in Gallip(&gt;lis (plastering).
Mostly he plastered in the warm
months and ' traveled the countryside
in the cold months giving lectures.
At least one of his poems seemed
to have been inspired by his growing
up years in Gallipolis. lh that poem
he talks about ascending a "primeval
rock which seemed majestic an'd to
mock the structure of my- plebeian
ho me ." There are 'several bluffs
overlooking Gallipolis where Bell
could have remembered sitting as a
lad that gave in spirati on for the
poem.
In time Bell was regarded as one
of the finest of the African-Ameri'
can poets of the 19th century. Many

LOSANGELES(AP)-TopHollywoodwritersbro~

rival studios and pressure them to adopt similar plans
Studios historically have resisted gi~jng writers percentages of a movie's groSs receipts. Top writers can get
$1 million to $2 million for a script and the Columbia deal
would give them another 2 percent of the picture's gross.
· .· At a lime when studios already sweating out a shrinking bottom line as they pay big bucks to actors directors
and producers, Columbia's rivals · likely will have to
come up with a comparable plan to attract top writers.
The deal caught other studios by surprise and execulives declined requests Friday for interviews, saying it
, was too early to determine the impact of the Columbia
deal.
" I imagine it will irk them at first, but on reflection I
would hope not that they would feel that way, " Daniel
Petrie Jr., president of the Writers Guild of America

west, said Friday. "It's more than a deal ~ut money,
it's about dignity.
·
"People who are sophisticated about the business
know (he importance of the sereenwriter. But I feel for
the publio at large, and maybe more shonsighted people
in the business, writers are looked down on."
Up to 40 percent of a film's gross can go to actors, so
2 percent isn't insignificant, a rival studio executive,
speaking on condition of anonymity, told Daily Variety.
"This comes at a time when profitability is under
siege in the movie business. So I ask you, ' Where are
they getting the money? ' With stars and directors taking
points, there aren't any additional ones to give away," he
said:
· The group of more than 30 top writers approached
other studios with the plan. Columbia, a unit of Japan's
Sony Corp., was the only one that agreed to talk, and the
discussions were kepi qmfidimtial until Thursday's
announcement.

'Payback': a pleasantly surprising piece of movie fun
By TED ANTHONY
AP Nlllomd Writer
l,'orter (Mel Gibson) robs from

And, it seems, he has no first name.
A thoroughly unsavory character.
But here's the rub: While Porter's
a bad, bad man, everything around
him is worse.
That's the premise of " Payback,"
a pleasantly surprising piece of
movie fun that follows Porter
around an anachronistic Chicago (is
it 1999? 1975? 1948? Hard to tell) as
he fights to reclaim $70,000 that was
stolen from him by a fellow thug
who left him for dead.
Payback works on just about
every level. It has quirky characters
galore, all w·ith sundry facia.! tics and

After a shaky start, " La.te Night"
has hit its stride with the audience
and critics. It's a great gig. If NBC
had said no, Springsteen would be
looking for another drummer.
"I love Bruce, the guys in the
.band," Weinberg ·said. " I Jove the
history and the music. But the last 5
· 1/2 years have really proved to me
that I moved on."
O' Brien and Ross gave him the
chance to move back. They recog·nized the importance of this reunion
to Weinberg and to rock history and
felt the show was on solid footing to
weather the change. Guitarist Jimmy
Vivino will fill in as bandleader.
Weinberg is in iehearsals with
Springsteen.
Weinberg said he's returning to
the road as much for his 11-year-old
daughter and 8-year-old son as for
himself. Dad spent 15 years with the
E Street Band, but his children have
never seen them perform. So they'll
take time off from school to follow
their parents on tour.
"I really want my children to see me
in this sort of mythical situation that I
was in that was preHy much over by the
time they came around," he said.
Weinberg has a keen memory for
dates, and here's one he'll never forget: Oct. 18, 1988. That was the day
· Springsteen called to say he wanted
to try sol)le new things and didn't
need the band anymore.

Weinberg was convinced at the
end of the "Born in the USA'' tour in
1985 that the band had played its .last
show; they had workecl hard for
more than a decade and conquered
the world. What more was there to
do? Springsteen called the band
back for two more, shorter runs but
when Weinberg saw the billing,
"Bruce Springsteen's Tunnel of
Love Express featuring the E Street
Band," he knew the end was near.

Even if you ' re in a bad marriage,

Earher plans- none success ful - called etther for loca l calh ng through

Ltkewtse, a pre vtous MCI relatmnshtp w11h Bell Atlanuc was abandoned

Actually, AT&amp;T's bid to commandeer the cable mtrastructure may be a

It's also uncl ear whether ot her htghly touted alternauves for deli vertng
telephone calls to consumers- the Internet, ce llul ar and satelhte TV - wtll
be advanced or cheap enough to substttute for regular wtres any ume soon
Most analysts sttll say the eastest way to local compettllon ts to force more
arrangements hke the Bell Atlanttc-MCI WorldCom deal m New York.
"Once you get one of these thmgs approved, the others wtll fa ll mto place
qutckly," satd Samuel Simon, chatrman of the Washmgton-based Telecommunicattons Research and Act10n Center "That creates a road map and (oth·

Thts approach was bol,stered two weeks ago when the Supreme Coun gave
the Federal Commumcauons Commt ssJOn more authonty to determme
whether the Bell s are tllegally blockmg compelltton.
. However, others say a better way may be for regulators to all ow the Bell s
tnto the long-di stance market firSt That could mottvate the long-dtstance compames to mvest the·add tttonal money necessary to break mto local markets

" If a Bell th reatens the long-dtstancc revenues of a reStdenttal matkct .
the best protecuon for a long-diStance com pany is to offer local scrvtcc,"

the airmift took off in !langemus conditions:

The single-engine plane crashed in a wooded area at approximately 11:30
a.m. Sunday, seconds after it took off from Medina Municipal Airport, said
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Tony Moliniro.
"In the snow squalls that were reported in the area, they would not have
been able to see the trees, " airport operator Earl Olson said.
ATF spokesman Patrick Berarducci said Sunday night that the three
agents are David Hall, a 12-year employee based in Columbus; Eric Frey, a
12-yeai employee based in Oeveland, and Roger Guthrie, a 16-year employee based in Detroit.
Hall was the pilot of the privately owned plane. The Medina airport, east

Boston exchange moves .into new quarte.rs
By SHARON L LYNCH
Aesocletecl Pre•• Writer
BOSTON Tucked into
cramped quaners on the 38th fl oor of
a skyscraper, the Boston Stock
Exchange has conducted its busi ness
far from the gaze of curious milookers.
~
·
Starting ·today, the public can get
a look at what its been miss ing.
The exchange rece btly opened
for busi ness in new quarters in the
city's Financial District, complete
with upgraded computer equipment,
twice the space and a view of the.
trading floor.
It marks the first time in years that
the public has been allowed into the
exchange. Its old trading area simply
didn 't have a place for them.
"The olher building was a jum- ·
bled mess of cables;" Joe Lloyd,
senior vice president of systems,
said of the new facility, which opens
for busi ness today. "Now we' re a
competitor."
'
The Boston exchange was found ed in 1834 as a m;n-ket center for lrading stocks of New England-based
co mpani es.
The 92 local traders who make
their livings swapping stocks, writing
oplions and second-guessing the
world economy will be moving Onto
the new lradin g floor, with more
expected to foll ow.
The ne w offices take up four
fl oors of the old Boston Safe Deposit
and Trust building on Franklin Street
Visiwrs will be allowed in to watch
the action from a secondcstory mezzanine overlooking the trading floor.
Right outside, a "data wall" of
televisions tuned to CNN, MSNBC
and other channels will give passersby real-time infonnation about foreign and domestic markets,
An exchange spokeswom~n - said
public accessibility was an important
factor in choosing the building, which
was constructed in 1908 and is just
down the block from the shopping
hub of Downtown Crossing.
One of the prime reasons companies like Gillette, McDonald's and
Lucent Technologies sell their stocks
on the BSE is for the markering benefil.
. Lucent, for example, boasts that
abour63 percent of its 1.3 billion outstanding shares belong to indivi.duals
rather than to other companies. For
