Newspaper GALLIPOLIS - For over half a decade, Ohio's Sixth District seal in the U.S. Congress has alternatively been held by Lucasville Democrat Ted Strickland or Gallipolis Republican Frank Cremeans. Strickland first captured the seat in 1992. In 1994, Cremeans beat incumbent Strickland. In 1996, Strick· laml defeated incumbent Cremeans. With that pattern in mind , Cremeans thinks it should be his turn again to defeat the incumbent, and to represent the sprawling district when the 106th Congress convenes in 1999. First, however, he must get past a packed field of three fellow Republicans, all of whom are hoping to win the GOP primary in May and earn the right to take-on incumbent Strickland in tbe fall.

Meigs County residents living between Five Points and Great Bend may have noticed large X's along their roads and highways. The X's, along with other markings, are being placed by the Ohio Department of Transportation survey crews .in preparation for aerial photography along the proposed route for the Ravenswood 1-77 Connector. Aerial photographs will be taken within the next two or three weeks, before foliage begins to appear on trees and shrubs. The photographs are necessary to complete detailed designs for construction of the connector route, according the ODOT District 10 spokeswoman Nancy Pedigo. In conjunction with the aerial photography, surveyors will use highly accurate Global Positioning System monumentat ion along the connector route. The system uses signals from orbiting satellites to determine the location of the GPS receiver with a high degree of accuracy. ODOT slatted last week on the surveying process, drilling holes in die ground, approximately five feet deep. A rod will be inserted into the hole and the small GPS receiver will be placed on top of the rod, Pedigo explained. About 40 such monuments will be set along the connector route between Five Points and the Ravenswood Bridge. ODOT personnel will begin installing the GPS mOnuments next week to be used in conjunction with the upcoming aerial photography.

Crime task force may come t~ Meigs County By JIM FREEMAN Times-Sentinel Stan POMEROY- A two-county drug task force may soon find a new home in Meigs County, if county commissioners approve Monday afte rnoon. The Major Crimes Task Force, formerly the Southeast Counties of Ohio Narcotics Task Force, was the subject of much controversy in Athens County, where the group was accused of civil liberties violations, infringements and prope~ seizures. Currently Athens and Meigs counties are members of the task force which at one time served severa l southeast Ohio counties, including Gallia County which had administered the group. Last week, Athens County commissioners voted 2-1 against acting as fiscal agent for the task force . Enter Meigs County. Prosecuting Attorney John R Lentes said he will ask the Meigs County commission to administer the task force which comes with a total of$187,000 in state gran_t money.

County assessment compares, contrasts perceptions of health problems / BY CHARLENt;: HOEFUCH ·TIInes-Sentlnel StaN POMEROY -A Meigs County health assessment to compare and contrast perceptions of health problems by community leaders and families and determine what can be done to resolve them has been completed. , Purpose of the assess111ent conducted _by the Ohio University School of Nursing and the_Meigs County ·Health Department was to identify community health problems on which leaders and residents agree, and then develop a direction toward creating effective health programs. The. assessment showed that community leaders and residents saw community health problems in ~imilar ways, but that leaders tended to identify the problems with a greater sense of severity than residents. Sharon A. Denham, DSN of the OU School of Nu!sing, who did the assessment in conjunction with her doctoral thesis, interviewed eight Meigs County families for her publication on family health in Appalachia. "The high cost of health care calls for innovative models to promote, sustain, and regain health_within communities," said Denham, who noled that the study was necessary because "before anything can be done, ' the problems have to be identified."

Hunters in Zone A may take a deer of either sex during the fir st two days of the statewide firearm s deer season and bucks only during the remainine four days as proposed. Hunters may also take a limit of four amlerless deer in the urban · zones or in combination with special controlled hunts such as those held at the Ra ve nna Ar se nal. NASA Plumbrook fa cility, and Killdeer Plains Wildlife Area. As in past years, only one buck with antlers measuring five inches or more may be taken during the upcoming fall and winter hunting seasons. The Akron-Cleveland, Columbus and Young stown ~rban deer-zone boundaries will remain unchanged from las t year. The Divi sion of Wildlife is proposing to expand the Toledo urban zone to include a partion of Wood County in addition to all of Lucas County.

Urhan permits will again he sold for $10 each and allow hunters to take an antlerless deer in the urhan deer zones and during controlled hunts.

Dy lan, the enigmatic songwriter and fixture in pop culture, continues to garner rave reviews for his new work . He also co llected a few Gram my Award nqminations and a few new fans aion~: the way. !Jut what 's the real deal with Dylan"' ·· 1 never liked him. I used, to make fun of his voice/' says .Jenllifer LaBianco, a Hopewell Junction. N.Y . resident and singer-songwriter. ··But then I started to really listen and grew to respect his lyrics.'" For LaiJianco and other fans and pee rs of Dylan , hiS intluence and appeal has neve r been his hardedged vo ice . It's his stories. l1 's his music. " While I don 't know the person, I know the work and his depth and sense or cllilracter is overwhelming," says Poughkeepsie, N.Y., singersongwriter Rande Harris. " He's a great poet who can express all" of our thoughts, all of our feelings." And Dylan's new "Time Out of Mi nd "' album is yet another example ·,,f his ability to reinvent his style and stir listeners with songs of love .and death and life that plow deeply into the souL "' He's had such a long career, a career marked by so many mile- stones, " says Paul Verna, rev iews editor for Billboard magazine. " If his life is made up of pea ks and valleys, he 's at another peak in his life." Bob Brigham, professor of history at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie who uses Dy lan's life and Iynes in his "Cold War America·· class. believes Dy lan wntinues to play an important role in the ··popu list tradition." "His lyrics are very historical. His words bring us back to a past we all share, and that"s populism," ' Brigham says .' " He brought folk music out of the coffeehouses and back on 'the street and gave it back to everyone, just like a populist should." The true test of Dylan's strength and regard in the music business cou ld come Grammy night on Feb. 25. He is nominated for best album and contemporary folk album fu r " Time Out of Mind " and for best rock vocal performance for "Cold Irons Bound.·· That 's three top industry awards for a guy who used to get booed off stages. "This tould very well be his renaissance,'' says Wood stock, N.Y., resident Levan Helm , drummer fo r The Band and longtime Dylan friend. " Musica ll y, he "s turned himself into one hell of a band leader. He's really turned the music on its ear and know s how 10 individualize his music." Dylan has come a long way since the days making demos and jamming with Helm and other Band members in the basement of a West Saugerties house known as " Big Pink.'' " He qualifies for high honors in this business," Helm says. "His so ngs are better than ever and his music is better than ~ver. 'Time Out of Mind' is just pure music with no other intention. Damn, it's just real ly refreshing." Dylan 's latest project, recorded last year in Miami, took less than two months to complete, from pre production to mastering, says Daniel Lanois, guest guitarist and producer lor "'Time Out of Mind:" Lanais, the skilled music master who is known for his work with U2 and Peter Gabriel, last worked with Dylan on "Oh Mercy" in 1989. · This time, it was Lanois who put the invitation out to Dy lan-to collaborate again. What Lanais created was a musica l landscape for Dy Ian 's heartfelt lyrics. ·· We created a depth of field."' says Lanais, at work in Los Angeles with Scott Weiland , former lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots. "There are various degrees of light and shade, a depth and dimension that really captured a wonderful sound. " . In order to re-create the feeling of an "old blues clnb" to match Dy lan's bluesy-rootsy songs, Lanais made sure all the musicians sat in a horseshoe, able to look closely at February 22, 1998 what each play.er was doing. And it had to be live. "There's something special that happens when there's live vocals. .There's a sense of urgency and importa~ce that comes through," he says. And it's in Dylan 's live performances where this renaissance is felt most strongly. Lanais, who saw Dylan in ,Chicago and Los Angeles, says the artist has a "new-found spir it to his live ·performance," a spirit he relates to Dylan 's life-threatening illness in late May. Dylan, ~6, was hospitalized last year for histoplasmosis, a fungal infection that causes the sack around the heart to swell . His stay in an undisclosed hospital forced him to ·cance l tour dates in United Kingdom and Switzerland. Be_fore fans knew it, Dylan was tquring, performing to sold-out shows and standing ovations. · "He's always been happy to be out playing, but I can only imagine that when you 've had an illness that has brough( you close to possible death that it makes you face life in a different way," Lanais says. According to Paul Verna, who attended a recent show at the Theater at Madison Square Garden, Dy lan was very different than he imagined. "He was energetic and in great spirits and smi ling a lot," Verna says. "' Not the reclusive, mythical Dylan we've all come to know." ·Excellent service award .

To others, nothing is more attractive. So discovers Veronica Franco, a courtesan in 16th-century Venice in Marshall Herskovitz 's new film, "Dangerous Beauty." The title refers to "Veronica herself, who has the brains to go with her considerable ·physica l attributes and who quickly learns how to use both. Herskovitz's film is intoxicatingly sexy, even as it offers intellectual stimulation and provocative ideas. A visual throwback to the costume dramas of an earlier Hollywood, it is a resolutely modern movie, using its Renaissance period to illuminate contemporary ideas about the roles into which society forces women. "Dangerous Beauty" blends sex, love, lust and history in a dazzling and heady mix. When was the last time you saw a movie that celebrated, a character's abi lity to compose extemporaneous poetry in the middie of a sword fight (with the exception of "Cyrano deBergerac")?
