City officials again consider annexation
By KEVIN KELLY
nmea·Sentlnel Staff
GALLIPOLIS- Concerned over shrinking population and loss of city status as the 2000 census looms,
Gallipolis officials are again considering steps toward
annexing to the city.
A work session on annexation has been scheduled by
the City Commission for 5:30 p.m. Monday in the Gal·
lipolis Municipal courtroom, City Manager E. V. Clarke
Jr. announced.
Gallipolis' population, according to the 1990 census,

fell just below the 5,000 resident level required for consid·
eration as a city, although the Ohio secretary of state's
office eventually recognized the city's count of over 5,1XXl
In recent months, city commissioners have expressed
concerns over initiating action toward bringing more
population into Gallipolis prior to the next census.
Earlier this year, then-City Manager John K LeBlanc
said he was planning discussions with Gallipolis Town·
ship Trustees about extending city utilities, such as
sewer service, to Kanauga as a potential first step in
interesting the area in joining the city.

At the time, LeBlanc said the discussion was coolin·
gem on studies by local officials into obtaining a sewer
service for Kanauga.
At the commission'sAug. 4 meeting, businessman and
former city commissioner James Mullins said a commit·
tee to assist Gallipolis with annexation has been formed
through the Gallia County Chamber of Commerce.
The news was welcomed by the commissioners, who
are looking for citizen input and participation in the
process. An annexation attempt is initiated by citizens
and not by city officials, although the city is allowed to

Mullins requested guidance from the commissioners,
and Commission President Dow Saunders said at the
time it was possible a few commissioners could appoint·
ed to help the committee's efforts.
Moves toward launching an annexation effort out
State Route 160 and into the Spring Valley area resulted
in the preparation of a petition for the area's citizens to
circulate, but the effort was halted after the departure of
then-City Manager Matthew Coppler in early 1997.

Letter from soldier etched in stone at Ohi.o Veteran-s Plaza
BY CHARLENE HOEFUCH
Ttme..Sentlnel Staff
POMEROY - When Meigs Countians
visit the wall at the Ohio VeteriiJls Plaza near
the Ohio Statehouse, they will be able to
reid a letter by the son of former Meigs
County residents.
A letter written by Chief Warrant Officer
RlJderick Rowley to his parents, Wilbur
'JUnior' and Charlotte Rowley, on Jan. 4,
·1991, while stationed in Saudi Arabia, was
selected to be etched in the stone used in
erecting the wall.
The wall will be dedicated next Saturday,
Aug. 22.

her mother did when her father was drafted

She cherished his letters, among them the
one which is now etched in stone on the
memorial wall.
Rowley, who has been in servioe since 1981,
his wife, Janice, and children, Jeremy and
Nicholas, have lived in Germany since 1993.
He is the grandson of Wilbur and Matilda

BICYCLE GrvE-AWAY - Twelve bicycles will be given away during
the Meigs County Fair to boys and girts under 12. Here Dan Smith,
Kenny Buckley, and Brent Rose look over the bicycles to be awarded
two each day of the fair.

Alternative to suspension
Continued from page A1
is the main goal of the program, which Lentes said is very structured and disciplined.
AI 8:30 a.m., the students will walk in and be inspected by one of the two
instructors hired to operate the school. Students are not allowed to wear
gang-related apparel or have personal stereos or radios or other items._Cigarelles and other tobacco products will be confiscated and destroyed, Lentes
explained.
In addition, students are not allowed to carry backpacks or book bags,
items that can conceal contraband or weapons.
They will then sit down and work on lheir assignments. One-by-one, students will get a restroom break in the morning, lime to eat lunch, and another break in the afternoon. No talking or interaction with other students will
be allowed, and students are nol given lhe opportunity to idly stare out of
windows or doors.
"They are not allowed to do anything," Lentes said. "They are putting
themselves into the position 10 be here. At 3:15 they can go home."
Participation in the school- for suspended students and their parentsis compulsory as ordered by the school, juvenile court and county court, he
said.
"If they do not show up, we will contact a truancy or law enforcement
officer who will go gel the child, • he explained. "If the child continues to
miss class, he or she will be cited into Meigs County Juvenile Court as a
delinquent while the parents will be cited inlo Meigs County Court for contributing to lhe delinquency of a minor."
Parents of students in the program are responsible for making sure their
child anives and leaves on time. In addition, they are responsible for packing a brown bag lunch for their child- no hot meals will be served.
Most of all, Lentes said he hopes trouble-prone students learn that being
suspended and sent to the alternative-to-suspension school program is no
reward; plus, he hopes word-of-mouth about the school from lhe initial
offenders will discourage other youths from misbehaving.
"There will be no abuse; nothing improper," l.entes said. "They don't
want to be here."
•
While out of school, many suspended students often get into criminal
trouble, l.entes said.
"They're out playing, hunting, ~shing, having a good time. They aren't
learning anything," Lentes said. "lliis-takes away all the positives."
In addition to ensuring that suspended students are not e~joying their
time out of school, the new program ~ill allow suspended students to complete their assignments and receive credit as if they were at school.
Traditionally, suspensions count as as unexcused absences meaning students are not allowed to make up their assignments, or miss too many days
to receive credit for their other work done during that semester, said Nancy
Hill , Meigs County Juvenile Probation Officer.
Those students are then forced back into school where they develop
behavioral problems, disrupting classes and other students who want to
Jearn, she explained.
Suspended students attending the alternative-to-suspension school will
receive credit for work done at the discretion of the student's regular school,
Lentes said.
Lentcs said the teachers will be asked to send assignments to the school.
If the assignments are not available or completed, the students will work on
issues addressing mandatory slate proficiency tests or complete other academic assignments pul out by the two instructors.
"It is a punishment, not a three-day vacation." Lentes said.
Some local school administrators are enthusiastic about the new program.
Meigs Local Superintendent Bill Buckley said lhe program will keep the
suspended students off the streets.
"It's not a vacation; it's intended to help the kid," he said, adding that the
school will provide a "Very structured learning environment, academically
intense - depending on the youth's ability."
"If they don't get their work done . they will get extra days assigned, basically they will stay there until they get it right''
"This will help us," said Southern High School Principal Gordon Fisher.
Fisher explained that not many students from Southern are given out-ofschool suspension, but said the program will offer the school another option

U.S. Rural Development recently comm itted an additional $300,000 in
grants toward the Tuppers Plains project. in an attempt to help keep monthly sewer hill s at an est imated $35.
Pan of that bill goes toward debt retirement . and according to Keebaugh .
the_ board of tru stees is now considering different financing options for debt
retirement.

The system has been under design. planning and conSiruction phases for
seven years . Over two-thirds of the project cost - $2.2 million - has heen
obtained through public grant programs
Residents wi ll be required to connecl thei r homt s and hu sinesses to the
system, and Meigs County Comm issioners have pledged CDBG formula
fund s and fair housing funds to assist low and modcralc 1ncomc households
to the system.
A group of citi zens have organized to seck funding for all rr&gt;1dcnts who

connect to the syste m if they are required to pay the full connection cosl.
According to Kcebaugh. Rural Development's 504 program provtdes information about ftnancial assistance to pay for these expenses.

Last week we introduced the
Index of National Civic Health and
showed the graph of the 22 combined trend-lines from 1972
through 1996. This two-year study
by 18 commissioners, six staff and
two co-chairmen was established to
address widespread concerns about
the condition of our country's civic
health .
The comm ission believes that
the civic health began to decline
before 1974 However all the 22
trend -lines were not available prior
to that time . In certain cases other
data has been substllutcd in order to
project the graph back 10 1960. As
an example . fear had to be dropped
as a component for lack of data in
those earlier years.
I guess that speaks volume s
about what has happened in the last
three decades . Data wasn't avail ab le because fear was not a concern. Official data on 'youth murders/youth population' began to

The graph shown today begins
with an index of 127 In 1960. and
drops to 83 in 1996. a drop or 44

Dem&lt;X.Tats in ages past have used
the law to dtsable their political foes .
They invoked it vigorously and often
during the Reagan and Bush administrations, and managed thereby to gum
up the GOP juggernaut from 1987
t~rough 1992. Ironically, the strategy
proved a legal dud. A total of II counsels set up shop dunng the ReaganBush interregnum. Seven prosecutors
weren't able to muster so much as an
indictment; eight got no convictions
that held up.
The most famous Reagan-Bush
inquisitor was Lawrence Walsh, whose
Iran-Contra investigation ranks as the
most expensive of its kind. But Walsh
earned a piau in legal annals by turning his offiCe into a staging poiQI for_
panisan marauders.
·
He tried for yean w criminalize a

disagreement over
policy. At the heart
of the dispute was
a series of laws
known a, the
"Boland amendments,"
which
sought to 'imit the
president's foreign-policy discre11on in Nicaragua.
Snow
Reagan
officials
tried to circumvent the law by laundering arms sales lU Nicaraguan freedom
fighters (the Contras) through Iran.
Subsequent events vindicated Reagan and embarrassed DcmocrnL•, who
were friendly to the communist regime
of Daniel Oitega. When Nicaraguans
held their firsl free elections, they booted Onega and his thugs and elected a
government sympathetic to the Con-

tras.

Walsh grew biller. He never netted
any big fiSh, but he did innucnce the
1992 elections. Five days hcforc the
vote, just as George Bush was pulling
even in the polls with Bill Clinton.
Walsh's office indicted five former
Reagan and Bush officials. This preelection bombshell was arguably the
most political act ever undertaken by
any independent counsel.
Contrast the record in the ReaganBush years with that of Clinton-era

"

Reagan announced he would withhold
nothing --and made good on the.
promise. Bush did the same dunng lhc
remaining years of Iran-Contra,
although he refused lo make one document avmlablc for puhlic release
hccausc it could have nnpcrilcd relations with a Middle Eastcm ally
'The Clinton team hasn't limitcd its
efforts just to stonewalling It also has
launched a series of smear campaigns.
The"president's minions have mounted
an aggrc.&lt;&gt;ivc effort to demoni1.c Kell'nclh Starr. Most amazing IS the clai]n
that the square and upnght Starr is
somc~••w more "poliucal" than lame~
Carville or the inmates at Ca&lt;a Clinton.
Nut to he outdone, the lir.;tlady haS
laid all the investigations at the feel of a
" v~~.;t.right~wing con~ptr..tt;y " -- a claim
she recently embellished hy opining
that some of the malefactors also e•hil&gt;ited an irrational hatred of" Arkansans.
She thus gives voice to the hhcrnl hcli&lt;(f
that conservatives cann&lt;~ be motivatCd
hy anything other than mahcc, unless It
be greed.
.

Ironically, Republicans can wi~
politically only if Starr plays it straight• brings home indictmcnL&lt; and issues a
report that honors his pledge to revc:ll

Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - As a fan of Senate Mmority Leader Tom Daschlc,
Philadelphia businessman Peter Buuenwicser was happy to help the South
Dakotan 's re-election campaign.
Buue nwieser and his wife were nearing the limits of what they cou ld contribute 10 federal campaigns. Daschle 's fund-raisers had the solution: Buttenwicser would give $8,000 to the South Dakota Democratic Party.
Daschle has cashed in on his Senate leadership position to help his slate
party raise more than $600,000 from out-of-state business interests and
wealthy individuals over the past two years, an Associated Press analysis of
reports 10 stale and federal officials showed.
That money, plus $4 million he has raised for his personal campaign
operation. has given him an overwhelming advantage over his poorly funded Republican opponent in this fall's election, Pierre lawyer Ron Schmidt.
Daschle, cognizant of how conservative groups poured money into South
Dakota to oust Sen. George McGovern in 1980, is taking nothing for granted.
"You don 't run Simply against the person on the ballot. We run aga10st
Ron Schmidt on the ballot and any person who wants to come in and open
up their checkbook," said Michael Meehan, Daschle's political director.
Some of the Democrats· newfound wealth has gone to candidates for state
office, mostly in $250 checks, but the bulk will fund a get-out·lhe-vme drive
and other party-buiidmg efforts that benefit Daschle has well.
His help has put the state Democratic Partv on an even play in~ field, in
terms of money at leJst. with the South Dakota GOP. Republicans, with a
plethora of instate dOI;ors who give $1,000 checks to the pany. control the
state Legislature and most state offices.
Both part1es have raised about $1 million in 1997 and the first half of this
year, accordmg to reports filed with federal and state officials. The latest
reportS showed the Democrats with $230,000 on hand, compared with
$75,000 at the corresponding point in the 1996 campaign.
Their benefactors include tobacco companies, labor umons, trade associations and business executives and other individuals from California to the
Virgin Islands.
Daschlc's atdes deny he's mfluenced by such contnbutions. But critics
say that givmg to the South Dako~ party allows special interests to curry
favor with Daschlc without exceeding limits on contributions to his campatgn . lnd1vtduals can give a candidate no more than $1,000 per election.
Polntcal act1on commtttccs. the polttical arms of corporations, labor umons
and trade a&gt;Soc tatEons, are limited to $5,000 per election.

so un.:cs said .

Under the likeliest scenario, Clinton would refuse to provide details he
considered to be private, but would
signal to the grand jury and later to
the nation that the relationship went
beyond mere friendship , the sources
said . speaking on condition of
anonymity. One source said Clinton
could make an acknowledgment similar to his 1992 "60 Minutes" admissiOn of "causmg pain" in his marnage.
One adviser involved in the preparations said the strategy is "moving
real fast" from an option to a tentative strategy. "You can easily say he
is leaning that way," the source said.
Another source familiar with the
preparations said the advisers are
seriously considering a prime time

Monday night address to the nation,
perhaps as brief as six minutes. The
White House had not approached the
nelworks as of Friday night.
The sources cautioned no plans
were final in an environment where

the adv1ce nowing to Clinton has
ranged from a complete confession to
a steadfast repeat of his earlier
denials .
Officially. the White House
refused comment on Clinton's plans
except to say nothing was certain
beyond the time and location of his
testimony.
Wnh grand jurors watching from
the counhouse. Clinton is scheduled
to begin hi s testimony at I p.m. EDT
Monday from the While House residence 's Map Room, press secretary
Mike McCurry said. His testimony
wtll he tmnsmitted to the U.S. District
Courthouse by closed circuit televiSIOn .

. The Map Room has twice been the
site of Clinton's videotaped Whitewater tnal testimony and was the
venue for the controversial 1996
co ffees for Democratic donors. In
addition to the prosecutors. Clinton's
private lawyers and White House
Counsel Charles F.C. Ruff will be
present.
In viv id contrast to the intense
behind -the -scene deliberations of his
legal team. Clinton enJoyed an early
52nd hmhday party Friday at the
White House and was described by
his chie f spokesman as "buoyant ."
"He's celebrating his birthday.
He's havi ng a good time," McCurry
said. His actual birthday is Aug. 19.
. McCurry acknowledged. however,
t~at Clinton 's private attorney. David
Kendall. was concerned he hadn't
_had enough time to prepare Clinton
because the em bassy bombings in
Africa and the Russian economic crisis had stolen the president's attention.
In a fundrai si ng speech Friday.
Clinton said of the twin crises: " In
the last few days. I've spe nt more
time on :hese two challenges. by far.
than anything else."
The press secretary frowned at the
hysteria and speculation about what
Clinton might tell the grand jury
about hi s relationship with Ms .
Lewinsky and alleged attempts to
cover it up.
" It 's kind of like going into Super
Bowl weeke nd ," McCurry said.
" You read every coach's or excoac h's idea of what ' the winning
defe nse or offense is going to be during the big game."
The stakes for Clinton couldn 't be
higher. The testimony will provide
the last Qpportunity to sway prosecutors before lhey decide whether to
send a report to Congress that could
recommend impeachment.
The president's inner circle consisted of just five people - the first
lady, personal lawyers Kendall and
Nicole Seligman and former Com'merce Secretary Mickey Kantor. now
acting as a pri vate lawyer.
Clinton was also consulting with

Thomason. Thomason and his wife,
Linda Bloodworth-Thomason, a confidante of Mrs. Clinton, were staying
at the White House this week.
'The sources said the option most
seriously under consideration
involved Clinton maintaining he was
technically correct when he denied
having "sexual relations" with Ms.
Lewinsky under a definition written
by Mrs. Jones' lawyers.
That definition: "A person
engages in 'sexual relations' when the
person knowingly engages in or
causes contact with the genitalia,
anus. groin, breast, inner thigh, or
buttocks of any person with an intent
to arouse or gratify' the sexual desire
of any person."
The sources said Clinton would
maintain the definition did not cover
sex acts in which he was pass. ·:e.
Legal sources have said Ms.
Lewinsky testified that she had several sexual encounters with Clinton
inside the White House. including
oral se~. and that they discussed way
to conceal the relationship but Clinton never instructed her to lie under
oath.
One source familiar with the
preparations suggested any admission
by Clinton could be similar to his
1992 "60 Minutes" interview in the
midst of the Gennifer Flowers controversy in which he didn't directly
answer allegations of an affair.

Cards blast Pirates 10-5; Reds triumph
By The Associated Press
Imagine everyone on the Chicago
Bulls dunking but Michael Jordan.
Something almost as strange took
place in St. Louis on Friday night,
when it seemed everyone on the Cardmals homered except Mark MeGWire .

Five players homered for St. Louis
in a 10-5 victory over Pittsburgh, but
McGwire barely got to swing his bat.
"I would have taken the odds on
that one," said Tom Lampkin, who
hit a three-run shot for the Cardinals.
"But that's why you ' ve got nine
guys, and the guys on the bench. We
picked him up today; he's been picking us up all year."
McGwire didn't have an official
at-bat. He walked three times, got
nicked by a pitch and scored twice
before gelling a rest after the sixth
mnmg .
"They hit five home runs and he
didn't have any, so I'd just rather not
talk about him," Pirates manager
Gene Lamont said. "But we didn't
pitch around him."
Ray Lankford hit a three -run
homer for the Cardinals, while Deli-

no DeShields. Brian Jordan and Fernando Talis each had solo shots.
McGwire leads the majors with 47
homers, but has hit only two in his
last 13 games and fallen behind
Roger Maris' record pace for the first
time. Maris had 48 homers at the
same stage in 1961 , when he finished
with 61.
In other NL games, it was Cincinnati 3, Montreal 2; Chicago 6, Houston 4; Philadelphia 6, Colorado 2;
New York 3, Arizona 2; San Diego 7,
Milwaukee 0; Atlanta 5, Los Angeles
2; and San Francisco 10, Florida 0.
Cubs 6, Astros 4
Sammy Sosa hit a liebneak.ing RBI
double and pitcher Mark Clark's
capped Chicago's four-run sixth
inning with a two-run single as the
Cubs won at Houston and en&lt;ied the
Astros' seven-game winning streak.
Clark (7-11) allowed four runs and
seven hits in 7 2-3 innings. He struck
out eight and didn't walk a batter.
The Astros had runners on first
and second with two outs in the ninth,
but Rod Beck got Ricky Gutierrez to
hit into a forecout for his 35th save.

AC's Plug-ins

Phillies 6, Rockies 2
Doug Glanville hit a two-run
homer and Carlton Loewer pitched 6
1-3 strong innings as visiting
Philadelphia ended Colorado's season-high four-game winning streak.
Seen Rolen broke out of an 0-for13 slump with a double for the
Phillies, who had lost II of 14.
Loewer (6-4) faced the minimum
through the first3 2-3 innings before
Larry Walker doubled in the founh.
The right-hander allowed two runs
and seven hits. Bobby Jones (5-6)
gave up six hits and six runs in four
innings.

Reds 3, EKpos 2
At Cincinnati, Roberto Petagine
won the game for the Reds with a
pinch-hit RBI single with two outs in
the bottom of the ninth.
Dmitri Young drew a leadoff walk
from Steve Kline (2-4) and advanced
, on Jeffrey Hammonds' sacrifice.
Kline then walked Eddie Taubensee,
who hit a two-run homer in the fifth,
and Mike Maddux came on and got
Bret Boone to hit into a force at second.
Petagine, pinch-hitting for the
second time since the Reds called
him up, lined the first pitch to center
to end the Reds' four-game losing
streak. Gabe Whjte (5-3) pitched two
hitless innings for the victory.

Mets 3, Diamondbacks 2 ... -~~ . .i ,
Brian McRae hit a two-run fiom~r ·
in New York'§ victory at Ariwna, and
Rick Reed won his 14th game for the
Mets.
Reed (14-7) scattered eight hilS
over seven innings to become the
NL's seventh 14-game winner. His 14
victories are a career best, topping
last year 's 13-9 mark.
Braves S, Dodgers 2
Andres Galarraga hit his 37th
homer, a lhnee-run shot, and Kevin
Millwood won his third straightflart
as Atlanta won at Los Angeles.
Millwood (14-6) allowed a run
and five hits in five innings before
leaving with a sprained right ankle.
The right-hander injured his ankle
while running out a grounder in the
fourth.
Javy Lopez and pinch-hiucr Greg
Colbrunn added RBI singles for the
NL East-leading Braves, who swept
the Dodgers in a three-game series at
Thrner Field in May and have won
their last seven meetings with Los
Angeles.
Giants 10, Marlins 0
Mark Gardner pitched a six-hitter
for his second shutout of the season
and his two-run single started San
Francisco's seven-run second inning.

BACK TO SCHOOL BONUSII

Too many last chances
After a short and unheralded career
in the NFL, it seems that former
Nebraska runmng back Lawrence
Phillips has called in his last marker... .for now. Phillips, known more
for his off-field beatings of women
than any on-field exploits. was cut by
Jimmy Johnson and the Miami Dolohins who picked him up after he was
cut by Dick Vermeil and the St. Louis
Rams last season.
Johnson said he dropped Phillips
because the talented tai Iback could-

n't hang on to the football . In St.
Louis, Vermeil cited similar reasons.
However, like his college coach, the
venerable Dr. Tom Osborne, both
skirted the real reason that Lawrence
Phillips. and thousands of other professional athletes like him, can't
make it: they have no self-control and
believe they are above any of society's rules because they are athletes.
Phillips ' career has been high-

Veteran DeBerg rusty in return

By SAM WILSON
Tlmes·Sentlnel Correspondent
It 's my son's birthday this month, so I'm taking
him to Anderson, Ind., to see Peyton Manning and
the Colts practice at their training facility. Don 'l be
surprised if you see James wearing a new Manning
jersey in the near future . Yes, a new savior has
arrived in town to save the day .
In facl, a group of saviors arrived in many towns lhis past week. Manning, along with Ryan Leafand Randy Moss, were all impressive in their
NFL debuts.
Manning's first NFL pass went for a 48-yard touchdown to Marvin Harrison . He was eight of 15 for 113 yards with one interception and a fumble
during the Colts ' preseason loss to the Seahawks.
Leaf led the Chargers on two scoring drives in San Diego 's 27-21 win
over the 49ers. Leaf was 14 of 20 for 116 yards and one touchdown . It seems
that both Indianapolis and San Diego did their fans proud by picking these
players first and second in last April's draft.
Manning and Leaf may be the best two young quarterbacks to enter the
league since the "quarterback draft" of 1983. It's important to remember,
however, that it wasn't until last January thai one of the class of '83, John
Elway, finally won a Super Bowl.
Yes, Manning and Leaf have only shown flashes of being big-time playerS in this league, but the NFL really needs these two stars.
·
A lot was made of the Bledsoe-Mircr draft a few years ago, but Mirer has
been a bust since a promising rookie year. The NFL needs a fresh infusion
of young, talented and recognizable faces at the quarterback position. Manning and Leaf fit this description.
Steve Young, Dan Marino and Elway are on their last legs. New quarterbacks are needed to challenge Troy Aikman and Brett Favre for touchdowns
and headlines. TI1ey seem to have arrived in Indianapolis and Sam Diego.
Most fans in southeastern Ohio 'know that Dennis Green and the Minnesota Vikings got the steal of the draft when lhey took former Marshall
wideout Randy Moss at No. 21 ,
Green is a great coach' He 's outspoken, competitive and a winner. He
wasn't worried about what people said concerning Moss' past. He knew he
was getting a quality player Moss' performance in Minnesota's 28-0 victory over New England proved h·im right.
. ·
Moss caught a 44-yard touchdown pass against the Patriots and has
impressed everyone around the NFL with his speed and quickness. CNNSI
experts have already called him the best player of the draft. This doesn't surprise anyone living within a hundred miles of Huntington , W.Va . We knew
Randy was the real deal. Look for him to be the new rook ie of the year in
the NFL.

Steve DeBerg was playing on an
NFL field for the first time since
1993. And it showed.
DeBerg, 44, entered Atlanta's 7-3
victory at Detroit on Friday night
with 9:50 left in the second quarter
and was unable to get a sustained drive going . He was 6-of-11 passing for
39 yards
" I wish I had a little more time in
the pocket," 1he 17-year veteran said.
"I saw some long ones I wanted to
try, but a little bit of it was me not
moving well enough in the pocket."
DeBerg was sacked three times,
one causing a fumble the Falcons
recove red.

"Steve was rusty. He's been out of
the game for a while. but all that I
saw in him can be corrected." Atlanta
wach Dan Reeve&gt; said. " He got
knocked down a lot."
DcBerg. who worked as a quarterbacks mach under Dan Reeves for
the New York G1ants for two years,
IS older than f1v e NFL coaches and
two years older than the next eldest
player, Seattle Scahawks quarterback Warren Moon .
In other exhibition game s, Carolina beat Buffalo 12-7, Jacksonville
defeated the New York Giants 24-10,
Philadelphia topped Pittsburgh 21-17,
Denver beat New Orleans 17-10 and
Arizona defeated Chicago 27-24.
Saturday, Washington was at Tennessee ~nd Baltimore at the New
York lets. Last night. San Francisco
played Seattle at Vancouver, British
Columbia; Kansas City was at Min-

nesota; and St. Louis was at San
Diego.
On Sunday, Oakland is at Green
Bay. On Monday night, Indianapolis
is at Cincinnati and Dallas plays New
England at Mexico City.
Chris Chandler's 29-yard touchdown pass to Terance Mathi s was all
the Falcons (1 -1) needed for the victory. Mathis had four catches for 74
yards. Chandler was 4-for-5 for 74
yards.
Jason Hanson. who missed two
field-goal attempG and had a third
attempt blocked, had a 20-yard field
goal for Detroit ( 1-1 ).
Coach Bobby Ross was disappointed in the Lions' play.
"There really wasn't much to this
football game. It was as ugly as any
game I've been coaching," he said.
"We weren't ready to play and we
didn't play very well ."
Barry Sanders played only three
series, but still gained 52 yards on
seven carnes.
Panthers 12, Buffalo 7
Carolina's John Kasay connected
on all four of his field-goal attempts.
but quanerback Kerry Collins may
have suffered a hroken nose in the

Kasay connected on field goals of
20, 37, 46 and 49 yards and improved
to 9-for-9 overall for the Panthers (20)

Last Tuesday, Pat Lafontaine announced his retirement from hockey
after suffering his sixth concussion. LaFontaine is only 33 years old, but this
15-ycar veteran has been advised by his doctor to stop playing the game he
loves.
.LaFontaine played wilh the New York Islanders, Buffalo Sabres and the
New York Rangers during his career. An American Olympic stnfrQm 1984,
Pai finished with 468 goals, 345 assists and 1,013 points in his career. He .
finished second in goals by a U.S.-bom player to Joey Mullen's 502.
LaFontaine would have broken Mullen's record if it hadn 't been for the
growing brutality of hockey. A finesse player, LaFontaine was a joy to watch
on Jhe icc. But LaFontaine was small in slature when compared to the presen! linebacker status of NHL linemen. Players have gotten bigger, stronger
and more physical in the pas~ decade. It has changed the focus of the game
1llld the playoffs.
; ; ·LaFontaine 's troubles are a serious portent of things to come. Hockey
:must find some way to protect skiBed players like LaFontaine from becoming relics of the past The rising number of concussions show the transition
of hockey from a game of skiB to one of bullying strength. It's slowly

BIG BEND YOUTH
FOOTBALL SIGNUPS
Bald eagle numbers continue to rise in Ohio
8y JOHN WISSE
Division of Wildlife
ATHENS (AP) - Managina
wildlife resources is often a numbers
game.
· One species where the count is of
special interest concerns Ohio's bald
eagle population. The bald eagle is up
for review by the U.S. Departm&lt;;nt of
Interior for removal from the !:st of
federally endangered to threatened
species status.
The eagle will remain on Ohio's
endangered list despite a continued
growth in abundance and distribution.
The severe flooding which
occurred in June in ponions of eastcentral and southeast Ohio panicularly affected Seneca Lake. As a
result, Ohio 's 47th bald eagle nest
was located in a remote section of the
lake that became accessible because
of the high water level.
"We were surprised at this discovery and the observation of at least
one young eaglet that was seen pok-

ing its head out from the nest," ·said
Jerry Meyer, wildlife management
supervisor for the Division of
Wildlife's southeast Ohio District 4
region.
In noting the Seneca Lake eagle
nest is the southernmost nest seen in
Ohio at least during the past I00
years, the wildlife agency gladly
adjusted its eagle count for this year.
"Each year we have additional
repons of bald eagle sightings in
southern Ohio such as along the Ohio
River and several reports from Lake
Logan in Hocking County. We can
confirm 47 brcedina pairs of eagles
now, up from 38 last year, and hope
to locate more nesting sites ne11
year," said Meyer.
A total of 44 eaglets were successfully produced and fledged this
year compared to SO that were
fledged last year. Eagles are said to
have fledged once they have learned
to fly, which occurs about I0 to 13
weeks following their hatching.

In 1979, when the wildlife agency
began its bald eagle management project, there were just four breeding
pairs of eagles in Ohio. Seasonal
migration allows Ohio's mid-winter
bald eagle population to temporarily
increase to more than ISO birds.
Most of Ohio's bald eagle nests
located on or ncar the Lake Erie
shoreline in northwest Ohio. The
Division of Wildlife says the Seneca
Lake eagle nest has been present for
at least a year and is the fanhest
inland of any of the state's know nesting sites. A second eagle nest is located in neighboring Coshocton County near Wills Creek and a third nest
on the Olentangy River in Delaware
County.
In its current five-year strategic
management plan, the wildlife
agency hoped to see at least 36 bald
eagle nests established across the
state by the year 2000.
"We're reaching a point now
where we likely will see a faster rate

are

of growth in the number of established breeding eagle pairS and number of eaglets fledged each year," said
Meyer.
" We just know the number is
increasing. When we get to the level
we're at today,! would expect that we
would continue this pattern and see
the number of breeding eagle pairs
and eaglets fledged go up in future
yeors.
State Senator Roben Latta is also
a fan of Ohio's bald eagles. He
recently introduced legislation to
allow for creation of a bald eagle
license plate. A portion of the sale of
these proposed license plates would
be directed for use by the Division of
Wildlife in suppo11 of its eagle management project.
Bald eagle restoration has been
funded through sales of a wildlife
conservation license plate featuring a
cardinal and lalpaycr contributions to
the wildlife dbersity income tax
checkoff program.

Fishing report: Largemouth bass, channel catfish
opportunities are excellent in Southeastern Ohio
COLUMBUS (AP)- Here is the
weekly fishing repon provided by the
Division of Wildlife of the Ohio
Depanment of Natural Resources:
SOUTHEAST OHIO
BURR OAK LAKE - Largemouth bass and channel catfish provide ex&lt;·ellent fishing oppo11unities.
Fish at night with traditional baits like
chlckcn livers and night crawlers to
take channel catfish. When seeking
bass, try the shallow water areas
along the shoreline opposite of the
beach and in the upper end of the
lake. Bluegills can be taken from
most shoreline areas when using
wax worms and red worms.
DILLON LAKE - Channel c_at- fish . largemouth bass and blucgtlls
arc the pnmary gamcfish anglers seck
at this 1.330-acre lake near
Zancsv•llc. Channel catfish measure
8 to 25 mchcs and arc best caught at
night. Largemouth bass arc protected by a 12-inch minimum size limit
and can generally be caught in the
· mornings and evenings.
SOUTHWEST OHIO
CAESAR CREEK LAKE - The
larger blucgills arc taken in 10 to 20
feet of water around drop-offs. deep
po,ints and submerged humps. Crappies also arc found in these areas in
late summer. Usc larval baits and
small wonns for best results to take
bloc gills. Anglers can pinpoint white
b)lss by watching for them chasing
bait fi sh along the surface.

EAST FORK LAKE - Night
fishing for channel catfish is best in
the stream channel and upper half of
the lake. Use cut bait and night
crawlers. Most fish will measure 12
to 26 inches. Cast surface plugs or
jigs when hybrid striped bass arc
chasing bait fish along the surface.
Anglers should cut their line on any
fish that becomes deeply hooked.
There are fair numbers of largemouth
and spotted bass.
MUSKINGUM RIVER
The Marietta Pool in Washington
County covers 5.8 river miles. Channel and catfish fishing is good to
e1cellcnt at night. ·use live bait such
as chubs or small sunfish when secking flatheads. Use plastic worms apd
small crank baits in the ldwer end of
the Devola tailwater to take largcmouth bass. This is one of the top rivcr areas for anglers seeking white

bass with fish measuring up to 14
inches. For best results, fish in slow
to moderate current with rooster
tails, small jigs and crank baits.
CENTRAL OHIO
KNOX LAKE - The woody
shoreline cover and areas with aquatic vegetation and submerged ~true­
lures are good places to find largemouth bass. Use top water buzz baits.
6-inch plastic worms. small spinners
or live bait. Early morning and
evening are the best times to fish . To
cittch channel catfish, some weight up
to 10 pounds, usc cut baits and night
crawlers along the bottom at night.
BIG DARBY CREEK- The Big
and Little Darby creeks offer good
chances to catch channel catfish,
bass, rock bass, sunfish and carp.
Bass or catfish arc plentiful in some
of the deeper pools. Usc small jigs
tipped with wonns or small spinners

to take rock bass. Cast surface plugs
to areas ncar vegetation when seeking black bass. NORTHWEST OHIO
BEAVER CREEK RESERVOIR
- Anglers can balloon fish or drift
fish wilh weight-forward spinners
and night crawlers when seeking
walleyes. These fish measure 14 to 28
inches. Usc spreaders tipped with
minnows and shiners and fished
along the bouom to take yellow
perch.

Vanity Fair excerpts of new N.C. Wyeth
bio looks at artist's love, life.and death
By GARY MULUNAX
Wilmington News Joumal
A new biography of artist N.C.
Wyeth, excerpted in the August
issue of Vanity Fair, addresses
long-standing speculation that the
artist had a romantic relationship
with his daughter-in-law.
Aulhor David Michaelis writes
in "N.C. Wyeth: A Biography," to
be published by Knopf in October.
that many suspect N.C. had an
affair with Caroline, who was married to N.C.'s son Nathaniel, a DuPont Co., scientist.
The relationship · developed,
Michaelis says in the excerpt. as
Nal worked long hours at the Du
Pont Co. in Wilmington. DeL, and
New Jersey during World War IL In
New Jersey. especially. Carolinea niece of N.C.'s teacher Howard
Pyle with a love for the Brandywine Valley (which straddles the
Pennsylvania and Delaware stale
lines) bred into her - missed her
home territory. writing to and visiting N.C. at Chadds Ford. Pa., when
she had the chance.
According co Michaelis. years
later Nat recalled "walking into the
studio one night late that summer
, in 1945 and finding his father
alone, hi s face smeared with
bright-red lipstick . Nat recognized
the shade: It was Caroline's. He
said, 'Pa. you've gol lipstick on
your face . How can you do this.
Pa''"
Family members have held
varying views of the relationship.
N.C.'s famous son Andrew told
Michaelis, " I'm not saying they
wenl to bed. I'm not saying they
didn't, but I wouldn 't rule il out. I
wouldn't be naive about il. My
father was nol a prude, and Caroline was a passionace woman."
Michaelis also addresses rumors
thai N.C. deliberately caused the
wreck that killed him and his 3year-old grandson, his name sake.
The two were killed by a train
when the car N.C . was driving on
Oct. 19, 1945, stalled at the Ring
Road crossing near Chadds Ford .
According to Michaelis. rumors
about N.C.'s relationship with the
boy and the boy's mother began 10

spread soon after the incident.
"In the Brandywine Vall~y. a
folk version arose which gave N.C.
a motive for doing away with himself and NewelL Whenever people
discussed N.C. Wyeth's wartime
love affair with his daughter-in-law
Caroline, the story would invariably make Newell into N.C.'s
son''
However, Michaelis cites evidence that makes il appear unlikely
N C fathered h&gt;s namesake .
- According to Michaelis, N.C.'s
children have regarded the deaths
as accidentaL In their 'view, N.C.
simply had not seen or heard the
train or may have realized the train
was coming but suffered a heart
allack in his panic .
The photographs accompanying
the article will add lo the impact.
They include eerie color stills from
home movies showing N.C. gelling
into his Ford station wagon on a
morning much like the fatal one
and others of his grandson running
from Caroline toward the station
wagon parked nearby.
Michaeli s also di!cusses lellers
that suggest a deeper connection
between father-in-law and daughler-in-law, pointing 10 what at the
very least appeared 10 be an obsession with the young woman on
N.C.'s pari and gratefulness by
Caroline thai her own intellectual
and artistic endeavors were taken
seriously by the patriarch of the
Wyeth clan.
"During the winter following
the accident she fell suicidal,"
Michaelis writes . '"She went into
absolute despair.' a niece recalled .
That winter, Caroline told Ann
McCoy thai N.C. Wyeth was the
only man she had ever really
loved.''
Yet Nat and Caroline remained
married and bd five more children
together, including a son they also
named Newell Convers Wyeth,
who was b&lt;·•n about a year after the
accident.
Caroline Wyeth was killed in a
1973 auto accident on Kennell Pike
just over the Pennsylvania line al
Fairville. Pa. Nat Wyeth died of
heart failure in 1990.

Study shows religion keeps
;blood pressure in elderly low
:By GARY D. ROBERTSON
·Aasociated Press Writer

: RALEhJH, N.C. (AP)- Anoth:Cr study has linked good health with
religion. The latest shows lower
blood pressure among older people
who have faith.
The new Duke University study
of 4,000 North Carolinians ages 65
or over found those who panicipated
in religious activities were 40 percent less likely lo have high blood
pressure, which can increase the risk
of heart disease.
While the study doesn 't prove a
causal relationship between belief ill
a higher power and good health, it
does provide evidence of another
benefit of religious aclivity, study
co-author Dr. Harold Koenig said.
"We're becoming more aware
that religious beliefs or practices is
not negative for a person's health,''
Koenig said. "In fact they could be
very positive."
Research has shown that reli gious people are less depressed,
have healthier immune systems and
deal belter with addictions than the
.,onreligious.
: In the Duke study, released in this
·month's issue of the International
:Journal of Psychiatry in Medicine,
·Koenig's team measured their subjects · blood pressures and adjusted
for race, age, gender and other dif:rerences.
.
They found that older residents
;who altcnded religious services at
1east once a week had consistently
~ower diastolic readings. as did those

11

who read the Bible or prayed regularly. The diastolic reading measures
blood pressure when the hcan rellllies.
The average diastolic rer.rling
was aboul 78 millimeters of mercury
for people who altended church regularly and prayed frequently or read
the Bible daily, compared with nearly 81 mm for those who didn't.
High diastolic readings are associated with hean auacks and strokes.
"There arc studies that show if
you could reduce the diastolic reading by 2 to 4 millimeters you could
_cut cardiovascular mortality by up to
20 percent," said Koenig, a professor at Duke Medical .Center and
director of Duke 's Center for the
Study of Religion/Spirituality and
Health.
The effect of religious activities
appeared to be strongcsl in blacks
and people between 65 and 75.
Religion may provide the faithful
with comfort or a loving community
in their golden years, thereby lowering stress and blood pressure.
Koenig said. The effect may be more
marked in blacks because historically they have closer ties to church.
Dr. Herbert Benson. president of
the Mind/Body Medical Institute
and associated with Harvard Medical School, said the Duke study presents further evidence "that belief is
inexorably connected to body as
body is to mind ."
"The documentation has never
been as quite effective as in Dr.
Koenig's study," Benson said.

WASHINGTON (AP) - More Americans filed for federal bankruptcy
protection in the 12 months that ended last June 30 than any one-year period in history, federal court officials report.
Federal bankruptcy filings climbed to a record high 1.42 million for those
12 months, spurred by a 9.2 percent increase in personal bankruptcies.
A report by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts shows that the
number of business bankruptcies dropped from the 53,993 filed in the 12·
month period ending in June 1997 to 50,202. But nonbusiness or personal
bankruptcies were up from 1.26 million to 1.37 million.
\n February, the administrative office reported that I .4 million bankruptcy petitions were filed in 1997, the most of any calendar year.
The most common fonn of bankruptcy proceeding is filed under the federal code's Chapter 7, designed to allow individuals to keep certain belongings while selling off other property to repay creditors. Businesses that file
under Chapter 7 sell off all assets and cease doing business.
For the 12 months ending last June 30, I .01 million Chapter 7 petitions
were filed .

If it's not broken, don 'I ftx it.
That's country superstar Tim
McGraw's approach to his career.
And why not? McGraw has been
one of the genre's most successful
performers since his 1994 breakthrough CD, "Not a Moment Too
Soon."
So when it comes to picking
songs for his new CD, due out in
November, and laying down tracks
in the studio, he's sticking with the
proven winners.
"I have worked with the best
team in Nashville since '92," he
says of his crack band, of musicians,
ihe Dancehall Doctors, and his· producers, James Stroud and Byron
Oallimore. Actually, make that coproducers. One change he has made
is trying his own hand at production,
on his last CD, last year's muhiplatinum "Everywhere," and working
with Gallimore on Jo Dee Messina's
"I'm Alright" this year.
He also would like to write songs
someday. "I just didn't have a
chance to write my own songs for

this one," he says.
Time ·has been a precious commodity during the last few years for
the 31-year-old McGraw. He mar·
ried his 1996 "Spontaneous Combustion" tour-mate and fellow coun·
try star Faith Hill, and the couple,
who live in Nashville, Tenn., now
have a 15-month-old daughter, Gracie Katherine ("She's into everything," says McGraw). Their second
child, Maggie Elizabeth McGraw,
was born this summer.
While his career is still important, McGraw notes that his priorities shifted when Gracie was born.
"Everything changes when you
have a bab'y," he says. "Your life
becomes centralized. You realize
what's important. Nothing's more
important than your family."
McGraw also stays in close touch
with his father, fonner Phillies
pitcher Tug McGraw, who still lives
in the Philadelphia area.
Tim didn't actually know Tug
was his father until he happened
upon his birth certificate al age II,
but the two eventually grew close.

He's got that movie-star formal-casual look down perfect: the suit pants
(black with faint chalkstripe) minus the jacket, a highly buffed pair of black
dress shoes, the gray cashmere sweater that not only hugs his trim physique
but perfectly matches his slate-colored eyes.
Movie-star airs are another matler, mainly because there are none.
He may have a Golden Globe Award and an Oscar nomination (as well as
a long list of other honors) to his credit, but as far as GaryJ)inise is concerned,,
he'sjust ·a working actor trying to make the most of some lucky breaks.
· The luckiest beipg his memorable role as U . Dan in the Oscar-winning
"Forrest Gump": In the space of a few months, Sinise ~w his career tum
on a dime and his opportunities multiply exponentially, thanks to the film's
success and his own harvest of awards and nominations .
"That time in my life was kind of overwhelming," says Sinise, 43, just
back from a visit to "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee" to promote his new
film, "Snake Eyes." "I was suddenly embraced by the community in Hol~wood, invited to every function and award show.
"Armani was giving me a free tuxedo to go to this show, other designers
were giving me clothes to wear to different functions. I was d~ing way more
interviews than I was used to. There was JUSt so much more mterest. There
were opportunities presented to me that I might not have received without
such a visible role in such a widely acknowledged film ."
Still, Sinise wasn 'I ready to cede anything to the experience that it didn 'I
deserve. "Someone asked me if this was the greatest moment in my life,"
he recalls, in that flat Midwestern, slightly nasal voice. "And I said no,
bc,cause I've had a lot of others, mostly in the theater.
"It's just that that was such an intense one, on a global scale, with a movie
that was so popular."
There 's a straight line, Sinise says, between the success of "Forrest
Gump" and the films he's made since, including "Snake Eyes," "Apollo
13" and "Ransom," as well as the Iitle roles in the TV films "Truman" and
"George Wallace."
. " All of a sudden, my acting career took off," Sinise says, as though he
still can't quite believe it. "I've done some wonderful things with some
great directors."
·
The latesl on that list, Brian De Palma, who directed "Snake Eyes," positively chortles at his luck in casting Sinise.
"1 'd been watching Gary over the years in films like 'Forrest Gump' and
'Ransom' and I'd seen him onstage, and he's just a marvelous actor," says
De Palma. "He's had a tremendous amount of training. We were very lucky
to have him. He brought a lot to the character, in terms of intensity and
understanding of his motivation."
In the film , Sinise plays a high-ranking official in the Defense Department, allending a heavyweight championship fight in Atlantic City with his
best friend, an Atlantic City cop played by Nicolas Cage.

when he was in college.
" I see him quite a bit," McGraw
says. The family had a "mini·
reunion" at the July 7 baseball All·
Star Game in Denver, where Hill
sang the national anthem. The
younger McGraw apparently has
inherited some of his father's baseball ability - he hit one into the
upper deck during celebrity batting
practice the night before the game.
In fact McGraw aspired to be an
athlete when he was a teen-ager in
Start, La. ("I'm from a map dot, a
stop sign on a black top," he sings
on "Where the Green Grass
Grows"), and atlended Northeast
Louisiana University on an athletic
scholarship. He also planned to go to
law school when he entered college,
but both sports and law lost out fell
by the wayside when he picked up a
guitar.
McGraw left school after three
years and moved to Nashville in
1989, playing in clubs around town
and signing with Curb Records in
1990. He released a single in 1992,
"Welcome to the Club," which hit
went right into the top 50. and then
his first, self-titled album in 1993,
which yielded a few modest hits .
It was his sophomore effort, "Not
a Moment Too Soon," that catapult-

ed him to superstardom, becoming
the best-selling country album of
1994 and winning a slew of awards.
His next two, 1995's "All I
Want" and '97's "Everywhere,"
were also hugely successfuL
"Everywhere" was the top-charting
country album last year, and the single "Just to See You Smile" spent a
record 29 weeks on the singles chart.
"It's Your Love," a duel with Hill,
went to No. I and stayed there for
six weeks. This week, "Just To Hear '
You Say That You Love Me," is No.
3 on Billboard's Country Singles i
chart.
McGraw says he doesn't feel
pressured to match the success of his
earlier COs, though.
"It's the same process for each
record," he says. "I pick the songs I
like the best. And I just put the last
one behind me and make the next
one. I always feel like I've kind of
crossed a bridge with each album
completed."

A young man stepped off the
C.A. Hill one day and began raising
money for the Bethel Church's bell.
Some who donated assumed it was

came here with all kinds of get rich

One man riding the C.A. Hill

Ohio had a louery before the

By Bob Hoeflich

Perhaps. the couple of showers we had this week will be the needed shot in the ann for Meigs County ganlen club members who will
be taking part in the two flower shows at the Meigs County Fair.
One active member of the shows commented that she is hopeful
that flowers of other panicipants are doing better than hers. If not,
then the entries and there are hundreds in the two fair flower shows
will be down considerably.
The shows are a highlight of the fair so, hopefully, the rains
helped to liven up the flowers .
Here's an update on Carl Stewan, a Gallia Countian these days,
fonner Meig s County resident.
Carl was seriously injured at the Gallia County Fair in July when
he was involved in a tractor-vehicle accident on the fairgrounds.
Inc identally. Carl has been a caretaker on the grounds for some three
years.

The son of Mrs . Manha Stewart, Middlepon , Carl was taken to St.
Mary 's Hospital in Huntington where he has been confined to the
telemetry unit. He is slowly progressing but it's going to take time.
He is expected to the hospitalized at St. Mary's for at least another
week. Carl is in stable condition now and is expected to be moved

I'm dense and getting "denser".
I guess that's why l can' t understand why Boulder, Colorado, officials have been unable to come up with a suspect in the murder of
six-year-old Jon-Bone! Ramsey. It's been 20 months since the child
was slain and in her own home yet-and still nothing in the way of
a solution fonhcoming from investigators.
If I weren 't so dense, I'd probably think the case was bungled.
Thank you for making the 50th wedding anniversary observance
of Middlepon's Denver and Nora Rice such a memorable occasion.
They are delighted by your display of caring. Of course, Denver and
Nora have always cared about others so the saying "what goes
around, comes around" might be appropriate about now.
The senior citizens center was decorated beautifully for an open
house honoring the couple on Sunday, Aug. 2, with Dr. and Mrs.
Larry Kennedy, Middlepon, long-time friends of the Rices'; Mr. and
Mrs. George Chambers of Fayetteville, Ga., and Mr. and Mrs .
Chester Rice of Union City, Ga., hosting the event. Chester is Denver's brother and Mrs. Chambers-susan-is Nora and Denver's
niece.
The honored couple received many flowers and gifts to mark the
a&lt;casion not counting 212 congratulatory cards. Over 165 people
registered at the open house.
A nice touch to the open house was added by the barbershop quartet of which Denver, of course, is a member. He was joined by John
Anderson, Harold Graham and Gerald Powell and the group presented several selections much to the pleasure of the crowd on hand and
then sang, "Heart of My Heart" for Nora. Incidentally, a wedding
cake featured at the open house was topped by the bride and groom
dolls used on the wedding cake of the Rices' 50 years ago.
On Friday evening, Nora and Denver were guests at a dinner held
at the Iron Gate in Point Pleasant and among the guests were Edith
Sisson and Juanita Will, who grew up with Nora so they ' ve been
friends quite a while now.
So Nora and Denver thank you so very much for giving them such

For all those who remain skeptical, I offer a more detailed explanation. These "fairy rings" are lush ,

They are caused by nitrogen released
from any one of 50 decaying fungi

on organic matter, such as dead plant
material, especially decaying wood .
Growth of the fungus may begin with

fungus begins to spread and grow
outward from the point of introduction, the center dies. As the fungu s
dies it releases nitrogen, which is
promptly used by the grasses above
to create the intense green ring.
Likewise, fungi from established
rings will die along the inner edges
of the circle as the fungus moves out-·
ward, thus expaftding the ring.
Occasionally, we will see a ring

ing the fairy ring may suddenly die.
As the fungus dries out. the dense
masses of fungal threads produce a
heavy, felt-like mat that may pene"trate eight inches. This inhibits water
penetration, which kills the grass andallows the browning of the ring.
More commonly, the ring stays somewhat noticeable after the initial spring
growth, it never turns brown, and it
resurfaces the following year as a
larger ring.

Just pop a pill
By REBECCA COLLINS
GAlLIPOLIS - Got a headache?
Relief is as close as the medicine cabinet. Indigestion or heanburn? No
sweat, just swallow a spoonful of
minty medicine or chew a couple of
pleasant-tasting tablets. Stuffy nose
or allergv sniffles? Down a couple of
little pil!&gt;, and before you know it,
you can breathe again.
With advertising hammering
home the message that relief from
whatever ails us is just a swallow
away, most people don't think twice
about heading for the medicine cabinet at the first sign of trouble .
As a result, many Americans rely
far too heavily on drugstore pills to
relieve their day -to-day complaints.
Oftentimes, simply getting more rest,
eating the right foods , avoiding caffeine or alcohol, exercising regularly or using some stress-reduction
techniques will solve the problem and without the risks or expense of
taking lots of
Overuse. misuse and abuse of
over-the-counter (OTC) products has
reached almost epidemic proportions, according to some medical
experts. 1)lc problem encompasses
virtually every drug that can · be
bought without a prescription. In fact,
many OTC drugs began as prescriptoon medications, like Motrin and
Pepeid.
'-- ·
When taken properly, these drugs
can offer the consumer some sorely
needed relief 'The problem is that we
think if one dose is good, three or
four are better. All of this medication
increases the risk of accidental poisoning. It may also produce a negative effect after years of taking it regularly. For instance, if you start taking an average of four ibuprofen

tablets a week in your mid twenties,
by the time you're 60, you will have
taken nearly,500 pills! Recent studies
have shown that regular use of
ibuprofen and acetaminophen can
cause further damage in people who
already have mild kidney diseose.
Fortunately, the decline in kidney
function appears to slOp when P-'Ople
stop using the drug.
Pain relievers top mosi physidans
lists of potentially troublesome OTC
drugs, especially non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs - pronounced EN - seds). such as aspirin
and ibuprofen. Almost all carry some
risk of internal bleeding when used
regularly, especially among older
people. Probably the best example of
the bleeding hazard is the stomach
ulceration that often occurs in arthri tis patients treated with NSAIDs.
The best approach to self-care is
to maintain a proper diet. exercise
regularly and take steps to manage
stress. Treat chronic pain with a trip
to the doctor. After all, it's bener to
go straight to the source of the pain ,
rather than just dulling the symptoms.
Definitely talk to your physician if
you are taking prescription medication before using any OTC drugs.
Be sure to follow the package
instructions on safe dosing. Keep in
mind that the elderly and people with
chronic·diseases are more sensitive to
drug side effects. A good rule of
thumb for using drugstore medications is: If the recommended dose
doesn't alleviate your symptoms - or
you need the product for an extended period of time - a visit to the doctor is in order.

· Defining our community
By KIM HARLESS
JACKSON - For a lot of folks
who grew up in the city, a fond memory is of a lei surely Sunday drive
through the country. Dad. mom, and
the kids, all piling into the family car
and heading out the rural road~
enjoying the sights of farm animal. ,
green fields of growing grain, and · ~e
relative peace fulness oftime spen• in
the countryside . Farm folks too .:an
remember whe n an occasional car

would come down the road, it's
strangers smiling and waving through
the open window.
.Those Sunday drive-by visitors
were welcome too, because they'd be
gone tomorrow, back at their factory
and office jobs, back in their homes
in town .
Things today have changed. Now.
those people driving by the farmstead
aren't just brief visitors.
They're the new neighbors.
They're the folks who decided to grab
their piece of the American dream ,
and that piece just happens 10 be right
next door to the farm s of Ohio.
It's happening everywhere. On
the edges of metropolitan areas , on
the frin ges of our cities and towns,
and on the outskirts of our smallest
villages. As you'd imagine. thi s trend
toward " out-migration" comes with
more than a few challenge s. Not the
least of which is the question: How
can we keep farmers farming when
their fields arc being covered by
blacktop and concrete'
As the number of rural homes
grows, so to does the infrastructure to
support those people. More roads.
more stores. more schools. Each
square foot of development eats up a
square foot of development eats up a
square fool of productive farmland .
Does this mean we should stop

people from building in the country?
No. Neither should we simply surrender our farm ground to housing
complexes and strip malls. O~r challenge is to find solutions to these
issues that meet our needs on a local
basis.
Ohio's communities must engage
the!)1selves in these discussions. Our
residents must decide what they want
their neighborhoods, towns, and surrounding countryside to look like in
the years to come. As this dialog
develops, the Farm Bureau can be of
assistance. We have available the
results of a comprehensive study
titled "Farmland Preservation: Defining Our Community."
The report contains the responses
of local res idents to a detailed survey
conducted earlier this year. Questions
are answered regarding infrastructure, zoning regulations, development
priorities, agricultural plans. and other subjects. If you'd like to review the
results of this report, simply contact
your County Farm Bureau office.
Farms and rural homes are not
exclusive of one another. We can
have both vibrant communities and
viable agriculture . But it won't happen. Together, our community must
figure out how.

director for the area Farm Bureau.

believe tllere's much chance of an
environmental catastrophe from a
farm the size of Baker's.
"They've got a point on the
odor," said Ken Midkiff, director of
the Missouri chapter of the Sierra
Club and one of the national environmental group's experts on con·
fined livestock agriculture.
"But at that sizt: there's not as
much impact on water quality ... or
potential for accidents."
Jack Shaner of the Ohio Environmental Council, another group that
wants to crack down on megafarms,
says he sympathizes with Baker.
"A lot of people are getting unfairly 'tarred by this issue ," Shaner
acknowledged. "Unfortunately, the
government has allowed the bad
operators to go on for too long."
Shaner likened the debate over
megafarms to a war, and said sometimes innocent people get hurt.
Other environmentalists are less
willing to let operations the size of
Baker's off the hook.
"Twenty-four hundred sows is not
the biggest of the big." acknowledged John Crabtree, a livestock
market specialist for the Center for
Rural Affairs in Walthill, Neb.
"But let's not kid ourselves, it's
. not a small farm .
"You 're still trying to take a biological system - such as raising
hogs - and turning it into an industrial operation," Crabtree said.
"There is very little way to run an
operation like that that is not going to
have environmental problems."
Tom Sporleder, an agricultural
economist at Ohio State University,
doesn't believe there is a direct correlation between size and pollution.

g~arled limbs !mown ruefully as the

With saws and pruning sheers, they

You can even make !he case that
market timing is one of !he riskiest
investment stralegies that you can
employ. How can being out of !he
market be risky? After all, if you
aren't losing money, aren't you mak·

Sure, money sitting safely in, say,
an FDIC-insured product (both the
principal and interest are insured)
will provide a comfortable rate of
return that you don't have to wonry
abou~ but over time, it may nOI give
you the kind of returns that can keep
your money growing fasler than
inHation. And staying ahead of innation is critical to achieving your

long-term financial goals.
For example, assume you are
earning 4 percent on your money
and inHation is running at the same
rate. Your money just isn't growing,
it's depreciating. Here's why:
You have to pay ta.es on your
earnings. So if you cam 4 percent
and you pay lalles at a 25 · percent
clip, you're really earning only 3
percent after lalles. 1bat may not
sound like a big difference. But if,
year after year, you keep earning
less than in nation, your money loses
purchasing power, and thai can
eventually affect your stand'rd of
living.

Over the last seven decades,

market timers are often out of the

BELMONT (AP) - Ohio Uni·
versity has rejected an offer for
rights to coal beneath a tract of rare
old-growth forest the school uses for
reS&lt;':ach.
Ohio Valley Coal offered the
school the rights to coal beneath
about I00 acres of Dysart Woods, a
455-acre tract of land in Belmont
County containing trees more than
400 years old. But the university does
not want the company mining anywhere ncar a 55-acre section or centuries-old timber that was declared a
natural landmark.
Ohio Valley President Robert
Murray said he is considering a lawsuit against the state ir the company
is held back from mining much
longer.
Murray said he made the offer In
settle a longstandrng dispute the
company has had with the univcrsi ·
ty concerning the land about I00
miles cast ofColumhus.
"That would have hccn a $30 million gift to Ohio Univcr.&lt;ity whkh
would guarantee thai the old-growth
:~~cs would not he subsided." Mur·
ray said.
The university called the offer
.. generous .. but turned it down. Alan
Geiger. assistant to Ohio University
President Rohert Glidden, said Sunday.
'" We did not reel the proposal
ensured protecting !he woods, ..
Geiger said.
"Our concern is 10 protect the
woods. and Mr. Murray's concern is
to keep workers employed and
extract the coal. ..
Alledonia-based Ohio Valley
owns the mineral rights beneath the
woods, which arc owned by the university. Ohio Valley filed a petition
last month with the Department of
Natural Resources' Division of Mines
and Reclamation for an extension that
would allow mining beneath the oldgrowth tract.
But the university has its own pcti·
tion pending with the division. The
school wants the old-growth area and
a buffer zone of about !.500 feet
declared unsuitable for m..•ing. The
school filed the petition last month
after it turned down Murray's offer.
Ohio Valley extracts the coal
through a process called long-wall
mining. The coal scam is removed
and the ground above the mine panel eventually collapses. Environmentalists and the university worry
that the ground settling will damage
the ccntuncs-old trees.

Too busy to vote? So's the rest
of the nation! census discovers
WASHINGTON (AP) - Voter
turnout for the 1996 presidential
election marked a record low, caused
in part by a preoccupation with ulh·
er things, the Census Bureau rrport·
cd today.
Just 54.2 percent of the voti11g-age
population cast ballots, the lowest
level since the bureau began compil·
ing the figures in 1964. The Congressional Research Service said it
has not recorded such a light turnout
since it began keeping ~cords in
1948.
"Among Americans who were
~gistcred but did not vote, more than
one in five told us they didn 'I go 10
the polls because they couldn't take
time ofT from worlr or were too
busy," said Lynne Casper, a coauthor of the ~port. That was triple

the proportion of nonvoters who
eave that reason in 1980. she said .
' "Time constraints arc now the single biggest reason Americans who arc
registered give for not voting. " added
the other co-author. Lorena Bass.
"Many people these days arc finding
their employers arc pulling so many
demands on them, they can't take
time ofT to vote."
Indeed, the 4.6 million who said
they were too busy to vote exceeded
even simple voter apathy. Some 3.5
million said they just did not care
about the election.
In addition, 3.2 million cited ill·
ness, disability or emergencies as
their reasons for nOI voting, while 2.8
million said !hey did not like any of
the candidales.
Among other findings:

• Eight percent reported voting by
absentee ballot in 1996, double the
percentage who did in 1980.
• Overall, native-born Americans
were more likely than naturalized citizens to vote in the 1996election, 59
percent compared with 53 percent.
But the reverse was true among His·
panics: 53 percent of naturalized citizens and 42 percent of native-born
Hispanics voted.
• Among citizens. Hispanics and
the Asian-Pacific Islander group VOl·
ed al lower levels, 44 percent and 45
percent, than whites, 61 percent; and
blacks, S3 percent.
.• Peak ages for voting were
between S3 and 74, with more than
seven of 10 citizens in this age group
casting ballots.
