Publi s ~ung today is a highly competitive business. Most major publishers rue owned by conglomerates and are interested only in the bottom line. The majority of editors are acquisition editors. This means they buy books already edited, complete and ready to send to the typesetter. Literary agents around the country receive up to 200 manuscripts a week, but less than one in 500 is ready for publication. How can aspiring writers find the guidance and help they need to get published? Ethical agents often refer writers to independent editors so their books will have a chance in the marketplace. Here are some guidelines for writers seeking agents and editors: I. Do your homework and find out how pul!lishing works. Read Publisher's · Weekly and other sources. Go to writing conferences and book signings and talk to ~uthors and agents. Ask questions. 2. Agents who believe your book has potential may refer you to an editor to coach you through an edit or rewrite. Expect to pay for editorial services, bUt. protect yourself by asking for references and then call- The ramifications of human conflict By Alden Waitt Meigs County Humane Society Carol Lemley, the Meigs County Humane Society's humane agent, has answered qutte a few calls since she assumed her new position on May I of this year. As a result, several animals. whose conditions were found to be unacceptable at best, are a lot more comfortable . And it also looks as if she will be working with the county prosecutor on her first case. With invaluable help from the Meigs County and the county commissioners, we have hired Ms. Lemley to look after the interests of nonhuman members of our community, not the human ones. However, as we expected, many of her calls have not been about the abuse and neglect of animals at all but have clearly been neighbor and family disputes. I gather that what was really needed for these calls was someone sc hooled in connie! mediation among human beings, someone with a thorough knowledge of psychology, and perhaps even marriage counse ling. Then, too. some people aren't happy till they bring in a third party to truly stir things up in their lives' Another casualty of bad relations between people is the dog (or any other animal) that two people terminating· a relationship end up abandoning, either out of miscommunication ("!thought she was taking the dog !" J or deliberate cruelty ("! don 't want any remtnder of him tn my li fe 1") . And we have encountered that situation as well. Apparently most people experienci ng connict do not believe in the dlfect approach to solving a problems. In other words. if "A" is upset with the loud music coming out of the house of neighbor "B," then "A" would rather make "B's" life miserable by calling in Children's Services. the Health Department, or the Meigs County Humane Society's humane agent on some trumped-up acc usa tion about child abuse. filthy cond itions, or neglect of the family dogs. We have an Incident Report form to be tilled out by Ms. Lemley or the person taking the complaint down , and that form asks for the relationship. if any, of the complainant to the person being investigated. This is one way we can determine of this is a call motivated by personal reasons - usually revenge or harassment - but it is not unknown for a neighbor. in this case "A," the hater -t of loud music, to ask someone else to make the complaint. In ALL cases, Ms. Lemley must follow up, however, and her valuable time, her skills and expenise, are wasted. .Why does "A" not approach "B" in a considerate manner and remind "B" that "B" has an obligation to be respectful of the neighbors? Is it because "A" is so fed up with the irritating neighbor that a civil conversation would be impossible? Is it because "A" did not learn in her or his family of origin, or later in life, that asserting oneself, that negotiating for something, is OK? The reasons are manifold and complicated, and it would probably not be fruitful here to try to come up with answers. But this (human) behavior ends up with the animal's losing - in this case, indirectly, because the humane agent's time is taken up with a trivial quarrel between human beings. So it is time for those of you who care about the welfare of animals in this county to pitch in and help. If you do wimess or hear ·secondhand of an instance of abuse, neglect, and cruelty, either deliberate or a result of ignorance, do not reach for the phone until you have checked out the story. Do a Iinle investigating yourself before you call Ms. Lemley at the Office of the Proseeutor. The worst thing that can happen is that the person queried thinks you're a bit of crank and perhaps is less than courteous. It is also likely that the neighbor or farmer who you ask will simply assume (quite rightly) that you are concerned about the creature in question. Obtain some details for the Incident Report Form. How long has the situation been going on? Did you yourself witness it? Do the owners of the neglected cats live in town during the week? If you have knowledge of abuse or neglect, to your knowledge, has the owner ever been informed? Most importantly, provide as much information if you feel there is a legitimate reason to investigate. Finally, what about reprisals? Most people who react negatively to suggestions that they are not treating their animals will often have unpleasant relations with other people anyway, and many will assume that "a neighbor" has made the complaint. And perhaps a neighbor has. But the agent is under no obligation to tell the owner where the complaint came from; for all the person knows, s~meone who commutes daily pas\ tile animal in question made the complaint. ing to check them oul Ask editors and agents about their track record of sales. 3. Before starting work with an editor, get a written agreement. I hope this will help aspiring writers who are interested in a literary career. -- Monica Faulkner, Faulkner Editorial Services.

The meeting was called by the Meigs County Board of Commissioners to discuss the proposed tax ln.orease, which was first suggested at its July 28 meeting. Commissioners said they must hold two public meeti~gs on the subject prior to accepting or rejecting the tax increase; however, they said last night's meeting was only an infonnal gathering, meaning two additional meetings will be held. The board has cited an increasingly tight budget and several specific projects they say require immediate attention as reasons for the proposal.

REED Sentinel News Staff Tougher ordinances designed to crac'k down on curfew violations and excessive noise from car stereos were approved when Middleport Village Council met in regular session on Monday evening. The two measures, passed as emergencies, were adopted in response to complaints of youngsters loitering after dark in the downtown area, and of car stereos 'and other "boom boxes" being played late at night, causing disturbances in residential areas. The new curfew ordinance requires all minors to be off public streets and sidewalks, as well as out of. business places, after dusk. Violations of the ordinance will be a minor misdemeanor, and last night, council discussed the possibility of holding parents responsible for violations. Jack Tanner, a resident of Riverview Apartments, discussed problems with alleged illicit drug - activity .in the vicinity o€ the complex and in the downtown area, where minors have been seen congregating. In other business, council voted to refinance the bonds issued for the purchase of the village's newest ladder truck.. Joe McLiney of McLiney & Co., Kansas City, Mo., met with council to discuss the options available to the village for refinancing. U.S. Rural Development, formerly Farmers Home Administration, has notified the village that it must refinance the bonds because of the village's improved financial condition. · Under the refinancing plan, the general obligation bonds will be issued for an eight-year period, at an interest rate of 5.5 percent, compared to an current rate, under Rural Development, of 5.8 percent.

Basic design for new build~ng wins nod from Southern Board The Southern Local Board of Education Monday night approved a basic design for a new district-wide K-8 elementary school building. The new design is a modification of an eru:lier design which, following a detailed survey, was found to be too large for the available lot. 1l1e revised design is similar to the earlier design which was unanimously approved by district teachers and residents during a previous public meeting, but includes a strai~ht classroom corridor whereas the earlier plan featured an angled corridor with the library as focal point. The building will replace Letart Falls, Portland and Syracuse elementary schools, Southern Junior High School and Southern kindergarten and will be adjacent the existing high school in a tree-lined field currently used for event parking and softball. The district will now present the plan to the state building facility commission for approval ; although minor changes can still be made. no major design changes are likely following the stale's approval of the building plan. The decision followed a meeting with Jack Pottmeyer, architect for Marr-Knapp-Crawfis Associates Inc., New Philadelphia. The board also approved the Quandel Group as full -time construction manager for the duration of the project. The company was appointed by the state to oversee the construction project, with the board to determine the ex lent of the group's involvement. Distri ct Superintendent James Lawrence justified the expense of almost $200,000 by saying a full time construction manager will work hand-in-hand with the architect on a daily basis, smoothing roadblocks and stumbling blocks. and taking care of routine paperwork. He said he discussed the matter with other superintendents and school officials, who said the hiring of a full time construction manager greatly assisted their building projects. In other business. the board employed Greg Vance as music teacher. It ts hoped that Vance will develop an instrumental music program in the district. The board accepted the resignation of Roger Hubbard as volunteer golf coac h due to health reasons and then approved Jay Rees as volu nteer golf coach.

ROBERT L WINGElT Publisher CHARLENE HOEFUCH DIANEHIU Controller G_,.lllanager TBy DeWAYNE WICKHAM Gannett News Service WASHINGTON - Sexgate is no Watergate Twenty-four years ago I had a nngside seat at the Watergate coverup trial, the case which grew out of the scandal that derailed the presi, dency of Richard Nixon. I was just a few months out of journalism school when my editors ·at U.S. News & World Report sent me to the trial of five of NIXon's closest aides. The men - former ~ Attorney General John Mitchell, presidential a1des H.R. Haldeman and John Ehrlichman, and lawyers Robert Mardian and Kenneth Parkinson - were accused of conspuing to hide Nixon's role m covering up his re-election committee's involvement in a break-in at the Democratic National Committee. The break-m and resulting coverup were serious stuff. The former was an attempt to undermine this nation's presidential election process. The latter was a felonious effort to hide that troubling act. What Monica Lewusky say s Wickham about her relationship with Bill Clinton pales in comparison. The former White House intern JS expected to tell a federal grand Jury she had some form of sexual relationship with the Democratic president - a tale prosecutors hope will be backed up by the results of FBI tests on a dress that Lewinsky says is stamed with Clinton 's semen. In Watergate, the smokmg gun was the taped vmces of N1xon and Does nation's highest court lack energy? WASHINGTON (AP) - The current Supreme Court, considered the century 's most 10tellectually g1fted by many scholars, runs the nsk of also being labeled the least energetic. Whatever the reason - and even the just1ces say they cannot explain 11 - the nation's h(ihest court faces a dramatic drop in the number of fullblown deciSions it issues. As the number of d1sputes reach10g it cont10ues to climb slowly, now topp10g 7,000 a year, the court is granting full rev1ew to about half the total it once embraced. That trend has been evtdent since Wilham H. Rehnqu1st became chief JUStice 10 1986. But the 1998-99 term that begins in October could yield the lowest number of decisions in four decades. When the jusuces end their summer recess and again take the bench, only 33 cases awan argument and deciSion; three of those may wash out. Through the 1980s, the start-of-term docket of cases awaiting argument and dec1sion routmely approached or surpassed 100. "I think u's an mstuuuonal expression of the Rehnquist coun's judicial restraint," says Douglas Km1ec, a Pepperdme University law professor. "It's a deliberate choice by a working maJonty of tile jusuces to lower the profile of the Supreme Court in national dec1sion-making." Through the 1980s, the coun issued an average of 140 signed deciSIOns in an October-to-July term. In the 1990s, that average has shrunk to 92.5, with a low of75 in the 1995-96tenn. The justices issued9llast term, when the start-of-term docket totaled 47. No doubt, they will add to the 1998-99 decis1on docket by granung new cases from October through January, but it is doubtful the total will climb to even 75. Of the three cases that conceivably could be dropped from the 33 already granted review, the most prominent is an envuonmental fight from Pennsylvania. Th< court has been expected to decide whether private Citizens ..:an sue over government agency regulations that allegedly result in racial discnmination. At issue is whether a group of Chester, Pa. , residents may pursue an "environmental racism" lawsuit over the state's placing a waste-treatment facility in 1heir c11y. Since rev1ew was granted, however, lhe building permit for the facility has been revoked. The justices were urged in a July 29 brief to rule that the d1spute now IS moot, or legally irrelevant. Given the court's awesome constitutional power, it is unlikely that its generally publicity-shy JUStices will-e\ler be_come mvisible, or that they collectively will be referred to as a "do-nothing" court. . Two court members - Rehnquist and Justice Clarence Thomas - have been in the headlines during thiS summer recess. Rehnquist rejected emergency auempts by Secret Serv1ce officers and White House lawyers to dodge a grand jury's queslions, and Thomas traveled to Memph1s, Tenn., to assen his nght to be a black conservative and not be considered a traitor to h1s race. But can you 1dentify the coun's seven other members? The paucity of s1gned deciSIOns is nol conduciVe to mcreasmg publ1c familiarity with the names of John Paul Slevcns, Sandra Day O'Connor, Antonio Scaha, Anthony M. Kennedy, David H. Souter, Rulh Bader Ginsburg and Stephen G. Breyer. his aides plotting to buy the silence of burglars, shift the blame to others and stonewall investigators. In Sexgate it is Lewinsky's story of stolen moments of illicit sex with the world's most powerful man. That sort of thing is the making of a good soap opera and political intrigue, but it hardly comrares with the serious offenses committed by Nixon. Of course there are some who will disagree with such an assessment - people who charge that Clinton, like Nixon, was involved in an obstruction of justice. · They will argue that if, as has been reported, Clinton had a sexual relationship with Lewinsky and conspired with her to conceal it, he is just as guilty of committing high cnmes and misdemeanors as was Nixon . They will argue that, but they wJII be wrong. CaReFuL Wtfm' Vousav- lHiS PLaca iS C.RaWLiN<; WiTH ~CRaT 'SeR'#iee. Marital infidelity hardly compares to an attempt to undermine the Constitution. Nixon sought to tum this nation's presidential election into a banana republic plebiscite. Clinton, if what Lewinsky is expected to tell the grand jury proves true, cheated on his wife. If that's so, the price he will pay in public embarrassment - and grief from Hillary Clinlon - is apt penalty. That Clinton may have lied under oath about such an affair, in a civil case that has been dismissed, is disturbing. But it hardly IS a good reason 10 impeach him. This president has some flaws. Every occupant of the White House has had a few. Clinton isn't the only president thought to have had an extramarital affalf, though apparently none of the others resulted 10 a woman squirreling away intimate physical evi dence . If the polls are any md1cauon, most Amencans understand the difference between Watergate and Sexgate. Most bel1eve that Clinton had an affair with Lewinsky. Few thmk it should cost h1m his job. : These attitudes may outrage the moralists among us but they don' t surprise me. As divorce rates rise in this country, people struggle to understand why so many marriages are failing . Most of us know someone whose union has ended, or is on the rocks. and we grapple with the role that adultery plays in these situations. As a nation we are far more forgiving of those who cheat on their wives than we are of those who break a public trust. If Lewinsky is telling the truth, Clinton violated his oath of marriage, not his oath of office. He did what an increasing number of men and women in this country have done. Of course, that doesn't make 11 right. But it does put what the president allegedly did - and the reaction of most Americans to it - into perspective. 20th Century still pretty darn modern By lan Shoales Americans are bold explorers, fearless entrepreneurs, and fierce warriors. But before we do anything, we make lists. Exploring boldly? You'll need sunscreen, oxygen tanks, discount a1rfare, and hotel reservatiOns. Wnte those down, so you don 't forget them.

Our lists aren'tjust personal. Maybe it's an effect of the millennium, but our ltst-making has become frenz1ed, desperate. Th1s year Time listed the 100 most imporShoales tant people of the 20th century . The Amencan Film Institute kmdly gave us the 100 best Amencan movies. The Modern L1brary provided us w1th the 100 best Enghsh-language novels of the 20th century. Even more obsessive than composing th Why do we do 1t? They just make us mad "Dear Time," we write, "Why Smalra and not Mel Tonne? Cancel my subscnption immediately." "Dear Modern Library: You omttted V. by Thomas Pynchon, and anyth10g by Flannery O'Connor, William Gadd1s, John Updike or Samuel Beckett. Please revoke my literacy." "Dear AFI: 'Dances with Wolves ' IS one of the top 100 movies? Hello? Are you out of your mindsT' Rather than working ourselves into a tizzy, we should acknowledge these lists for what they are: means to make the list-makers more important. Time, after all, shows us newsmakers on a weekly bas1s. To attach great and grave importance to the personages on whom it reports by hsting them as grave and great important personages, Time creates a self-sustaining infonnation loop that provides employment for content providers and gives the illu- . sion of bemg h1ghly informed to consumers. Thus we can read consecutive cover stories on, say, J1m Carrey, Boris Yeltsm and Russell Eugene Weston Jr. wtthout experiencing a cuhuro-schJzophrenic breakdown. And AFI. of course. is an institute. Institutes are developed-to promote whatever they have been instituted lo inSiitutionalize. The Cato Institute promotes libertarianism, for instance; the Pond's Institute promotes skm-eare products. The American Film Institute promotes American Film. Dub. Even "Dances with Wolves" (shudder). And the Modern Library? Well, the 20th century is still pretty darn modern, and will remain that way for another year or so. In addition, by an odd coincidence, many of the top 100 books on its list arc published by the Modern Library. How can I make this phenomenon work for me? I tried making a list of things I would never make a list of in a million years, even 1f you paid me, but that seemed selfdefeating. Then I woke up the other rnommg with the name "Yasmine Sleeth" stuck m my head. I'm not entirely sure who Yasmme Sleeth is, but there she was. So maybe the list that'll bring me the big bucks could he "Top I00 People Who Arc Son Of Famous, But lan Shoales Doesn't Know What The Hell They're Famous For, Exactly." It could be sort of a Trivial Pursuit kind of deal. The list could include, oh, I don't know, Dougray Scott. Tom Sizemore. Zuleika Dobson, Suzie ChapstJck, Andre the Giant and Steve Balmer. On second thought, you make the list. I've got too much to do (Did I remember to wntc dowu "pay rent"?)

But Monday, during a season " which be failed to live up to both the team's and his own expectations and was pushed out of the picture, Greene became the latest ex-Red, traded to Baltimore for 27-year-old Jeffery Hammonds. In Hammonds, Cincinnati gets a talented but injury-plagued outfielder with speed, power and solid defensive credentials whom the organiza. lion had coveted for some time. BaJ. timore wanted Greene's bat to bolster Orioles nip 'Rays; Yanks improve mark ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP)Juan Guzman was working on a three-hitter and thought he had plenty left. Still, he didn't argue when Baltimore manager Ray Miller replaced him with two outs in the sixth inning of a one-run game against the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. "He's been trjing to be careful with me since I'm here," the former Toronto right-hander said after a 2-1 victory Monday night kept him unbeaten since joining the Orioles in a trade . "He knows that I had surgery last year. He took me out, and we talked right after the game. He told me, 'I didn't know how many pitches you've been going, so I just wanted to be careful with you.' So next time, it's going to be different. " It turns out the Orioles got a threehiller anyway. Alan Mills, Jesse Orosco and Armando Benitez held the Devil Rays hitless the last 3 1-3 · innings. "I was fine." said Guzman (8-12), who is 2-0 with Baltimore. "I could have gone all the way, 120-125 pitches. But I thanked (Miller). He was trying to help me." In other AL games, Anaheim defeated Detroit6-2, New York beat Minnesota 7-3 and Chicago downed Oakland 5-3. Quinton McCracken tripled off Guzman with two outs in the sixth and scored when Wade Boggs beat out an infield single with a head-first slide. Orosco turned away an eighthinning threat by retiring Boggs and Fred McGriff with the tying run at second base, and Benitez worked a perfect ninth for h1s 16th save in 17 opportunities. Cal Ripken had the defensive play of the game, making a diving backhand grab of McGriff's grounder and scrambling to his feet to throw the Devil Rays slugger out to end the eighth. "There's a reason you play all them games in a row for that many years - because you're a great athlete," Miller said. "You adjust and you can do things. He 's just got great positioning. And when Cal gets a hold of something, you're out." Eric Davis went2-for-4 and drove in one run to extend his club-record hilling streak to 26 games for the Orioles. His RBI double bffTony Saunders (3-11) gave Baltimore a 1·0 lead in the first inning. Roberto Alomar added a run-scoring single that made it 2-0 in the sixth. Saunders allowed two runs and seven hits, struck out three and walked four in eight innings. He didn't take solace in pitching well in defeat . "It's never easy to take," said Saunders, who's received the secondlowest run support in the AL this season. "It doesn 't matter if you give up one run or 10.

Davis has hit in 28 of 29 games during the stretch. "Eric's the kind of player that can just carry your club, put it on his shoulders," Ripkcn said. Miller said Davis may also need a break. "'I'm probably not going to play him tomorrow. I think his legs need a rest. I don't know. I'm going to think about it," the manager said. "He's been of a heck of a streak, and he's taking a lillie bit of a beating legwise. If I could give him one day off this turf, it would be great."

"You're mouth is a winner." Broncos Seven-time Pro Bowl offensive tackle Gary Zimmerman rejec1ed a plea by quarterback John Elway 10 _play one more season and told coach Mike Shanahan on Monday that he was out of shape and would not be coming back. Zimmerman will be replaced by . veteran Tony Jones. Jones moves from right tackle to left tackle and. in turn, Harry Swayne moves to the right side. Zimmerman, 36, also retired last season, but was talked into returning after the second game of the season, helping Denver win a Super Bowl. "I was serious this year," Zimmerman said. "I'm not coming back. I've already filed my (retirement) papers. Nobody needs an old codger .like me out there." Redsldns Ken Harvey, who strained a hamstri_ng ~ the week before the start o'f training camp, ret~rned ' io practice. And he received a warm welcome, especially from coach Norv Turner. "I see Ken Harvey! I see Ken Harvey! No. 57's back!"Turner shouted across the field after Harvey made a play. "It's good lobe respected by your coaches," said the Pro Bow I Iinebacker, who said his leg was close to 100 percent healed. "But it's only a number until you get there and prove yourself, and that's what! got to do." Also back in camp were comerback Darrell Green - who baued two passes away and made an interception- and guard Bob Dahl, both recovered from minor knee ailments. Defensive end ·Kenard Lana showed up with a sore knee and couldn't work out, but the trainer said it wasn't seriotis. League wild card. Bowden said he is aware that laking on Hanunonds' injury-prone body is a risk but believes it's worth it. Hammonds hit .264 with 2 I homers and 55 RBI and had 15 stolen bases .. for the Orioles last season and hit .269 with six homers, 28 RBI and seven stolen bases this season. Hammonds is playing with a frac tured wrist and has never played a full season in the majors because of a variety of leg, knee, Achilles and concussion problems. "I compare this to the Ron Gant deal," Bowden said. "This guy has been injured, hasn't shown durability, but the talent's there, the potential's there . We think this guy has a chance to succeed. We've see n some special things out of him . He can run, he can catch the ball, and he's a hit· ter. If he's healthy, he can hit 15 to 20 home runs and play left, center or right. He's a complete player." Hammonds was signed to a threeyear, $7 million contract this season by Baltimore owner Peter Angelos against the advice of general manager Pat Gillick, who believed he was too much of an injury risk to sign long-term . Greene, who won aS 1.75 million arbitrati::m case this season, will be eligible for arbitration again next year. \ Bowden said he still loves the 26year-old Greene, but he just didn't tit in the Reds · future plans anymore. The left-handed hitter from Haddock, Ga., was hitting .270 with 49 RBI and a team -leading 14 homers. but it had become clear he was being pushed out. Greene started the season as the everyday third baseman but was bumped to the outfield when Pokey Reese got hot and took over in late June . And with Reese and Aaron Boone the future at third and Dmitri Young, M1ke Frank. Pat Watkins and Paul Konerko in the outfield picture, Greene became expendable despite his power potential. "This trade allows Aaron Boone to play third base, .. Bowden said . ""(Greene's) bat speed is tremendous. I think he has the potential to be a 30to 40-home run guy. He just wasn't able to do 11 here. Our situation changed with the trades." Bowden said he believes Greene. who isn't a good defender. will fit in better in the American League \ I .. .. ~- ..

Stadium debate will go to secretary of state CINCINNATI (AP) - The secretary of state will have to decide whether voters can decide the future of a new Cincinnati Reds baseball stadium. Hamil ion County's board of elections split Monday along party lines. with the two Republican members voting against pur.ting lhe issue on the ballot, and .the two Democrats voting that it should go i>efore voters. So the issue goes to Secretary of State Bob Taft. Whatever his decision, the matter is likely to go to the courts for a final ruling. The Reds and county commissioners have a tentative deal to build the stadium at the river site adjacent to Cinergy Field, the team's current home. Golden Grizzlies are Buckeyes' first foe in new arena COLUMBUS (AP)- Ohio State will usher in its inaugural season in the Value City Arena- and its IOOth season of basketball - against a team just moving into Division I. The Oakland University Golden Grizzlies, of Rochester, Mich., will be the opponent when the Buckeyes open the doors to their new $106 mil· lion home Nov. I3. Ohio State plays its first six games at home and follows Oakland with Alabama, Robert Morris, Army, Tennessee Tech and Penn State believed to be the earliest Big Ten game in ·school history. As a result. the Buckeyes will begin conference play in baskeiball on Nov. 20 - the day before the football Buckeyes host rival Michigan. Ohio State's other non-conference opponents at home are Tennessee-Martin and Florida Atlantic. The Buckeyes hit the road to meet ·Vanderbilt, Toledo, Miami of Florida and three yet to be determined opponents in the Puerto Rico Holiday Classic. A year ago, Ohio State posted one of irs worst seasons, matching the most losses in school history while going 8-22 and finishing with its worst Big Ten record evertat 1-1 S. .

The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; the pessimist fean; this is true. At the bridge table you get the optimists -- !hose who assume every suit will break favorably -- and the pessimists - those who think nothing will go right. Ideally, one should fall somewhere between these two extremes. When you need 10 be lucky. assume 8 propitious distribution; but when you can handle foul splits, play for !hem. With that helpful preliminary, how would you declare six spades here? West leads the diamond three. This deal is based on one from the 1961 Bennuda Bowl. In the match between Argentina and North America, the Argentinian West sensibly. jumped to four beans. Nonvulnerable and opposite a passed partner, he felt it was worth the risk to pressure the responder. North, with an unenviable bid, settled for four spades, where matters rested. When the American West overcalled only lhrce hearts, North could cue-bid four hearts to describe a highcard raise to game in spades. With such great distribution, South found it easy to Blackwood into siam. After Soulh draws trumps, the problem is to avoid two club losers. The optimist starts with the ace-king. expecting the queen to fall. Here, though, he leaves a poorer -- and hopefully wiser- man. The pessimist sees that the contrnct is ensured by cashing the club ace, then leading a low club toward dummy's jack. On the third round, he uses the power of dummy's nine and eight to nullify East's 10. 1973 Smokey 15 Ft 1,200; 1972 : Aristocrat 18' $2 ,000, 1899 Me- : tors, 74().446--<1103.

I• AUGUST 11 I �Page 10 • The Dally Sentinel • -----Society Becky Bear Meigs County Extanalon Agent, and Consumer Family SclencaiiCommunlty Development It's that time of the year when zucchi.._..__'".·;:;;':_;;.. n; is everywhere! What can you do with all of that zucchini? What i< it good for? Read on for some ideas. According to Martha Filipic with Ohio State University ExtenSion, a cup of sliced, raw zucchini (one small zucchini or 4 ounces) contains only 16 calories and has less than one-fifth of a gram of fat. It provides 10 milligrams of Vitamin C - about onesixth of the amount you need in a day. It also gives you 280 milltgrams of potasstum, ( 1112 of your daily requirement) and has I .4 grams of tiber (20-25 grams are needed daily). Besides its low-calorie, low-fat selling points. you can use zucchini 's vast versatility. If used raw, it is a great addition to salads and vegetable trays . Steamed, it is quite tasty served with tomatoes. sprinkled with Parmesan or mozzarella cheese, or seasoned with basil, marjoram, oregano or rosemary. Or, you can cut zucchini into small sticks and stir- fry it with sliced carrots, yellow squash or sweet red peppers. Occasionally, you might want to dip the zucchini in Oour or egg and bread crumbs and fry it up for a snack. You can slice it and dry it in a dehydrator for zucchini "chips." You can even shred it and use it in zucchini bread, cake or cookies- the vegetable's high water content and delicate Oavor make a most, flavorful baked product. Very fresh zucchini, like the kind that will be coming out of your garden, can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Zucchini purchased at the grocery store will keep an average of five days. It will keep longest if kept cool and dry, so put it in a plastic bag and occasionally check to make sure that there is no condensation. For longer storage, it· is easy to freeze zucchini. Just peel and cut it into half-inch slices. Blanch for three minutes, cool, drain and store in freezer bags or containers. For shredded zucchini, steam for one to two minute before draining and freezing .
