Story and Pictures BY PAT HOUCK PT. PLEASANT - Call it a miracle, call it luck, call it whatever you wish, but Larry Patrick of 2403 Lincoln Ave., Pt. Pleasant, is alive today when the odds were more than 90 to 1 that he wouldn't be. He owes tl}is to the generosity of many individuals who responded to an emergency call for blood and to the devotion to duty of the medical staff, technicians, aides and ladies in white, at Holzer Medical Center, many of whom remained on call around the clock to care for him. Mr. Patrick, 27, had been ill and in a Huntington hospital several days before Christmas but was allowed to spend the holiday with his wife and daughteJ,"s, Julie, 6 and Angie, 4. On Dec. 26 he was brought to Holzer Medical Center by his wife, Diane. After 9 days he went into a coma. Emergency surgery became necessary and immediately American Red Cross personnel went into action in an effort to find needed donors. The first appeal was for 12 units. Jimmy Corder of Huntington was in a Pt. Pleasant bank when he learned of the appealfor 0 negative blood and responded. Karen Russell of Tuppers Plains had never given blood but she drove all the way to Gallipolis one evening and gave hers for Larry Patrick. And many others, from Meigs, Gallia, Mason and even as far as Charleston, responded to the call. It became apparent a complete blood exchange was necessary and another call was issued by the Red Cross. Mr. Patrick's condition -in which his blood clogged - was rare. In fact, there has been only one other case at Holzer Medical Center and that was a number of years ago. That earlier patient was not as fortunate as Mr. Patrick. He did not survive. But it was through the generosity of this other less fortunate family, in giving consent for an autopsy, that doctors here were better able to ascertain Mr. Patrick's condition. With the data thus obtained, the medical staff was able to deduce what action was necessary to save Mr. Patrick's life. Patrick lost some days, days when he was in a coma and didn't even know his wife, but he has gained a future. Call it a miracle, if you wish, as well it • VOL. VI NO. 2 willing hands and hearts.

His Grandfather was a Pioneer BY BOB HOEFLICH RACINE Ninety -one-year-old William Bicknell Cross of Racine is only the third generation of a Great Bend Pioneer family - the Bicknells - in Meigs County. A former president of the Racine Home Bank, Cross bears the "Bicknell" name passed down by his mother, Mary Bicknell Connor Cross. Born March 7, 1842, Mrs. Cross was the daughter of Nehemiah and Julia Larkin Bicknell. Nehemiah, a sister, Zimrhoda, and his mother traveled with a company led by the Rev. Samuel Porter from Chenango County, N. Y. , to Athens, Ohio in 1815. The mother, Amy Bicknell, died in 1816 and was buried in Athens . Nehemiah was married on March 16, 1826, and at once made his home on a farm in Meigs County's Great Bend. The couple had six children, Emeline, the eldest, and Mary, the youngest. Mary, the mother of William Bicknell Cross, married the Rev. George J. Connor in October, 1869. They had one son, Charles Cookman Connor who died before his fourth birthday. The Rev. Mr. Connor died just shortly after the birth of his son. They are both buried at Hillsboro. Losing both her husband and son, Mrs. Connor apparently returned to Meigs County. She married David Barber Cross in January, 1879. He was a member of a prominent Meigs County family also. William Bicknell Cross, the 91-year-<>ld Racine resident, was the only child born to this marriage. Mary Cross, still a young woman, died on March 7, 1882, less than three years after her second marriage. William Bicknell Cross remained with his father . There were five children by a previous marriag e r es iding in the homestead. Following the death of Mary Bicknell Cross, her husband married a third time and there were nine children born to this marriage which made a total of 15 children seated at the Cross tqble at mealtimes. When he reached the age of 20, William Bicknell Cross went to Pittsburgh (Continued on page 2) ' Fire Damages Ely's Trailer NINETY.ONE-YEAR-OLD William Bicknell Cross of Racine, is a descendant of the pioneer Nehemiah Bicknell family of the Great Bend area. His mother, Mary, was Nehemiah's daughter. At 91, Cross enjoys good health with the exception of a hearing problem. He dr1ves his car almost daily and reads without eyeglasses.

Cross (Continued from page 1) where he was employed for a year before moving to East Liverpool where he resided for the next nine years. In 1902, he married Etta Jaccaud, a member of still another Meigs County pioneer family. The couple resided in East Liverpool where Cross was engaged in the roofing business. Mr. and Mrs. Cross moved to Racine where from 1913 to 1919 he operated a creamery. Then, gradually, Cross moved into the dairy business. He built a home near the Cross family homeplace in Oak Grove. Later, he purchased the family homeplace where he and his wife resided until 1957 when the property was sold to Gene Yost. In 1957, Mr. and Mrs. Cross moved to a small home in Racine. Mrs. Cross died on March 10, 1960. There were no children. Ten years ago, when he was 81, Cross became stricken with tuberculosis. Expecting to die, he was taken to the Southeast Tuberculosis Hospital in Nelsonville. He remained there 16 months. Today, at 91, he boasts excellent health. He reads without glasses and drives his own car any place he wants to go. He hears through the use of an aid. His hearing went during the bout with tuberculosis. Active in community affairs, Cross served a number of years on the Racine Board of Education. He was president of the board when the present junior high school - then a new high school - was built. He served on the board of directors of the Racine Home Bank 32 years and was president when he was stricken with tuberculosis. He resigned at that time. Cross recalls his "Aunt Emeline" Bicknell quite well. She was the eldest of the Nehemiah Bicknell children. She had married during the years and had two children. However, the marriage ended in divorce and both of Emeline's children died at an early age. She had begun A CAMPAIGN AGAINST the use of drugs is being sponsored by the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America chapter at Meigs High School.

The court had restored the name of Burns on Rescue Ship New Orleans POMEROY - A young Pomeroy serviceman will be taking part in the rescue of Apollo 14 astronauts in the South Pacific Tuesday. He is Eddie Burns, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Burns, one of their 14 children, seven boys and seven girls. Eddie is serving aboard the USS New Orleans which is the primary recovery ship for Tuesday's splash down. He is assigned to safely landing helicopters on the deck of the ship, having been trained in the technique in Tennessee following his boot training at Great Lakes where he was honor man of his class. The crew of the New Orle~~~s 1will escue Alan Shep d, Stuac;t Mitohell and. Edgar Roosa on Tuesday and recover--the command module and certain other· equipment such as the reentry parachutes. The ship's crew has been pointing toward the mission since October when practice began with a dummy spacecraft. The supply department has taken on supplies for three months, including a 30,000 spare parts kit, costing over $2 million just for the Apollo mission. This kit will be transferred to the Apollo 15 recovery ship upon completion of the Apollo 14 program. Personnel of the helicopter antisubmarine squadron of the New Orleans will hoist the astronauts aboard their aircraft and deliver them to the ship. An underwater demolition team will assist the astronauts out of their spacecraft and into the helicopter for their trip to the ship. Various specialists and technicians for General Electric, NASA, mutual radio and military affiliate radio service are aboard. There will be over 100 highly qualified civilians on board, not only to help insure the safety of the astronauts but to make possible the viewing of the splashdown recovery on television. Mail service on the New Orleans is severely limited during the mission. After recovering the astronauts, the ship will return to Samoa where the space pilots will be helicoptered ashore and flown back to Houston. The New Orleans is then scheduled to head for Hawaii and then to San Diego arriving at the latter point on Feb. 25. EDDIE BURNS, SON of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Burns, is aboard the USS New Orleans which is the primary recovery ship for the rescue of Apollo 14 astronauts. Eddie is trained in helicopter landing procedures on the deck of the New Orleans. This picture was taken when Eddie brought in the 5,oooth helicopter to the ship's deck. A large cake in the background of the picture was a part of the celebration. The Apollo mission meant crossing the equator so Eddie underwent the traditional ceremonies. A May, 1969, graduate of Pomeroy High School, Burns entered the Navy on Nov. 28, that year. Last year he was aboard the New Orleans in waters about Japan transporting Marines on recuperation leaves to and from Vietnam and Japan. Emeline L. Bicknell to her during the divorce proceedings. She carried out the operations on the 200 acre farm of her father four years after his death. However, the old homestead lost its charm for her as her youngest sister, Mary Bicknell Connor Cross lay slowly dying. Emeline sold half of the Bicknell Great Bend farm - now the John Proffitt farmand began her duties as superintendent of the Meigs County Children's Home. William Cross Bicknell, a small child at the time of his mother's death, recalls visiting " Aunt Emeline" for a week at a time at the children's home. She never wanted to talk much about her personal sorrows, Cross recalls. Staying at the children's home six years, Emeline then took employment as matron in the Methodist Home for the Aged in Brooklyn, N. H., where she continued for over 14 years making a· total of over 20 years service in institutional life. Through the years, she turned to using her considerable literary talents, having a number of poems and articles published. Emeline, upon retirement, returned to Meigs County. She contributed the information for the family genealogy published in 1913. Cross recalls that he and his wife, Etta, cared for Emeline most of the time during her late years. She died in an apartment where she resided in Pomeroy. Cross, when still a young man, was given one-half of the 200 acre Great Bend Bicknell farm. The 100 acres had been deeded to his mother who gave them to her husband, David Barber Cross, at the time of her death. His father, in turn, passed the 100 acres along to the only child of his second wife. The son sold the farm - now known as the Sayre property - and now owned by Tom Sayre. Cross never saw his grandfather Bicknell who was killed in the train incident before he was born. However , he remembers his grandfather Cross. Both men owned large tracts of land and both gave land for the establishment of a school, church and cemetery. Like the Bicknell Chapel, the Oak Grove Church provided by the Cross family still stands but is not used. William Bicknell Cross who attended the Oak Grove Church for many years still is a regular church-goer and preferring the "county church" attends regularly the Bethany United Methodist Church in the Dorcas area. POMEROY - Two West Virginia men were held in Meigs County jail Saturday for investigation of grand larceny according to Robert Beegle, Deputy Sheriff. Ted Martin, 19, and Joseph Allen McCarty, 23, were stopped early Saturday morning in a routine traffic check. Martin had been stopped earlier for not having his driver's license. When he again failed to produce his license and was told to get his license and report back to the sheriff's office within a half-hour. While Beegle was talking to Martin he noticed a stereo tape player under the front seat. When Beegle arrived back at the Sheriff's office there was a report of the theft of a stereo tape player from a car at the Sundown Nite Club.

State Auditor Joseph T. Ferguson gave an indication of things to come last week by publicizing the results of an audit showing Hamilton County commissioners had made illegal fund transfers totaling $4.2 million to gain $13 million in welfare payments from the state. The audit, released after Fer- guson had been in office scarcely more than three weeks, reflected badly not only on the Republican commissioners but on Ferguson's predecessor, Roger Cloud, who had warned the Hamilton County officers twice about the mistake to no avail. Ferguson has served notice he will be making thorough checks on the way his duties were handled by the Republicans who occupied the office 1953, when he was knocked out by former Gov. James A. Rhodes after 16 years as auditor. "There's a lot of things wrong in here," Ferguson told United Press International last week. rectly involved. What inference did to the GOP in last year's "loan scandal" is well known. Gov. John J. Gilligan is fully aware he needs no direct association with Ferguson's office to reap the benefits of any Republican "skeletons" that might chance to fall out of the auditor's closet. The governor apparently plans to know as little as possible about the auditor's activities. He was asked at a recent news conference what he thought of Ferguson ' s wholesale dismissals of Republican employes. The question might have hooked a slower man, Ql.lt Gilligan had the reply. "Mr. Ferguson has his own/ constituency," he answered with a smile. The prospect of having someone with Ferguson's experience in the auditor's office must be devotion, consistency, concern fearsome enough for Repuband support. Remember, "All licans. But the auditor has work and no play, etc." We made a unique addition to his don't inherit or buy respect. It must be earned by all. What's wrong with dreaming. Every good thing lives in someone's dreams before it can be created. May the supervised "Rec Center" become a reality. We draw inspiration and strength from others. THEY PT. PLEASANT - Mason need us now. County Superintendent of Let us not let them down! School I. Brooks Smith, in response to a letter from 13 area ministers expressing their "urgent concern for the restoration of harmony between the Mason County School Board and its Superintendent," Saturday delivered a letter to Rev. Charles S. Thompson and the other clergy. The contents of the letter : Dear Rev. Thompson : "I received a letter from the ministers of Mason County expressing urgent concern for the restoration of harmony between the Mason County School Board and its Superintendent. Since this letter was signed by you and twelve other ministers, I think it only fi tting and proper that I express my appreciation for yo ur concern and agree wholeheartedly with your letter . "I am ready and willing to do my utmost at any time to staff which could result in even more potent use of the auditing technique. Ferguson has hired 0. F. Knippenburg, a veteran Statehouse newsman and former investigative reporter for the Dayton Daily News, as a public information man. Knippenburg is regarded by his ex-colleagues as having a first rate grasp on state finances and political and governmental mechanisms. It is generally conceded that if he is turned loose on the musty payrolls, expense vouchers and other records of the last 20 years, he could be nothing but trouble for the GOP. Furthermore, Knippenburg, having been a newsman, would know exactly what to do with information once he obtained it. His knowledge of the press would produce maximum effeet, whether or not the conelusions drawn by the auditor's office were justified. "People will find out a lot of things." The 78-year old auditor whose political career spans six decades confirmed he has his field workers investigating the practices not only of the Cloud administration but the Rhodes regime which lasted from 195363. "We're working on some things," Ferguson said. "I can't give you any details right now, but we'll have them." With Ferguson calling the shots on investigations, the results could be devastating for Republicans. Well-timed audit reports could do untold damage by inference alone, ev'ID if future GOP candidates are not di- Youth Can Be Served BY GOLDIE CLENDENIN PORTLAND - We can help our youth by gaining and keeping their respect and confidence, and by treating them like (somebody) an adult, in conversation. Tell them man to man, or woman to woman, what they should do, or not do, and why. Then ask their opinion and LISTEN to them for awhile. Most youths will respond to being treated like a human being, not a chattel to make us proud of. Nothing is 100 per cent foolproof, but by your letters some of you have tried everything else. Time is transient, can't be frozen, baked, canned or hoarded; it consists of yesterday, today and tomorrow. And sometimes there is no tomorrow! Youth is a product of our generations, just as human, the same basic urges and needs undeveloped by time and experience. But they can be guided and directed into responsible adults by parents, teachers and judges, using these crumbs of time they throw away on blaming outrage and faultfinding . Now is the time to help.

A person who becomes disabled before age 31 needs to have worked only half the time between age 21 and the time he became disabled. Monthly Social Security checks are payable to the widow and minor children of a deceased worker. If the worker should become disabled, checks are payable to himself, his wife and minor childr en.

I know it's supposed to be "This is the week that was." But, oh my goodness, last week! We had snow, we had sleet, we had rain, we had sunshine, we had fog. The day the fog was so low made me think we were on the moors in England. You've heard of heads in the clouds? Well, we had our feet in the clouds that day, the fog was so low. rr PLEASES ME so to get responses to my column. Remember the time I asked about the sea gulls? A woman had seen some down near the dam, and called us because this was a rare thing around here. W. M. GOODWIN OF ALBANY sent the following interesting information about these birds. He wrote: "Possibly the monument in honor of sea gulls at the Mormon Temple at Salt Lake City isj>est known record of the migration of this sea bird. When the Mormons first settled at Salt Lake, after a most hazardous trip by wagon train across the desert plains, many men and women had to pull their worldly belongings on hand carts due to death of horses and loss of wagons in crossing turbulent rivers. "After arriving at the present site of the city of Salt Lake, they set in to plant their crops. Due to a dry climate, they had to get water to irrigate their soil (to keep crops growing) for without a good crop they were doomed to failure. Their food supply was about exhausted and they were living mostly on wild meat. "When the crops were about ready to harvest, millions of grasshoppers came and were eating everything growing from the ground. Everyone able to walk went to the fields to destroy the hoppers, only to learn they were fighting a losing battle. "Then from out of the northwest there seemed to be a black cloud heading towards them ; the sky seemect to turn black. As the cloud got nearer they saw they were birds. " hnmediately they gathered together and began to pray. They thought what the hoppers would leave, the birds would eat. The birds (sea gulls) landed in the fields and started devouring the hoppers. The gulls stayed in the area until the hoppers were all gone. The Mormons were so grateful they erected a monument next to the Mormon Temple in honor of the gulls. No one had ever seen sea gulls in that part of the country before. "While I was stationed in the state of Washington I did a lot of hunting and fishing. One time on a hunting trip I came along the bank of a small river and saw a lot of gulls hovering over a riffle in the river. Going closer and investigating, I saw what the gulls were doing. When the fish, which were large salmon, got in shallow water the gulls would attack them and pick their eyes out. I put a stop to their feast with several blasts from my shotgun. I don't know if the gulls are protected by law or not, but I never knew of any one killing them." I THINK MR. GOODWIN'S letter is an interesting follow-up on the gulls. By the way, Mr. Goodwin is my uncle, one of my most favorite people in the world because he helped rear me. EVEN THOUGH THE WEATHER has been cold, the young people who have horses, still get out and exercise and feed their pets. Saw Valorie Sheets riding her horse the other day, her long hair flying in the wind and the sun shining on it. It was a pretty sight.

Send your teenage questions to YOUTH ASKED FOR IT, care of Helen Help US! this newspaper. DOES CAPITAL "I" MEAN WVE OF SELF? Dear Helen : How come we are supposed to capitalize " I" and we don't capitalize "you" or " he, she, they," etc. ? You even write, " My mother and I," making your own self important, but giving your parent lower case. Don't say it's because " I" is only one letter, as " a" isn't capitalized. - STUDENT Dear Student: Maybe it's to avoid "I" strain: Little "i" is hard to write and dot. You'd be surprised how many young people no longer capitalize " I, " however. Let's ask them and find out why.- H. Dear Helen: Please print this letter because I'd like kids to know what I went through being married at 15, and how I don't regret it. Tony and I had to get married . I was only a freshman and Tony a junior. My parents threatened to send me to a prep school but my grandmother said it was too late - they should have done it a long time ago. Tony 's parents kicked him out, then later on invited him back to discuss the problems with me and my folks. News got around fas t, and I quit school in my second month, m os tly because of family reputation . I have four sisters and Tony has two. It would have been hard on them.

Gallipolis, o. Washington 1 School PTA members are 1 spreading rumors that Tony was seen with a former girl friend just a few days after we were married. I didn't believe them as he was working, going to school and coming right home to me afterwards. As the months wore on, Tony and I realized how much the baby meant to us. We felt strange with our former school friends and were too young for married friends, but we managed. Little Mary Elisebeth was born prematurely and died two days later. we didn't cry much because we told ourselves how could you love someone you never really had? Right now Tony is 24 and I'm 22 and we are still happily married after seven years. Tony graduated from the University last year and I'll be graduating from college soon. We don't regret having been married, but I do advise all kids -don 't marry in your teens! It isn' t romantic fun. It can be hell - even if you love each other deeply. - NOT SORRY BUT WISER NOW Dear Helen: I'm in love with a boy named Gary. There's only one problem: He's in love with a girl named Diane. Diane is beautiful and, to top it off, she is my best friend . There is one good thing though. She's in love with a boy named David who is going with a girl named Cindy. Gary likes me a little more than a friend. What should I do ? HELPLESS Dear Helpless : Hope Diane, being beautiful, attracts the perfect guy outside this fivesome. Then Gary might decide for you, Cindy could keep her David, and Diane and her new guy could be king and queen of the Senior Ball. Well, you can dream, can 't you? - H. reminded of their invitation to attend Green Elementary PTA ,.,.,"""'7"7'1 Monday at 7:30p.m. and hear •~~ the Rev.

Martha, Washington's wife, was a skilled gardener when she married him. She brought with her knowledge of choice native plants and with exotics from many parts of the world. Washington's diary recorded the grafting of fruit trees and his special interest in trees and shrubs. He employed a professional gardener in 1765 who assisted in drawing up garden plans. Several of the trees planted are still there today. It was at this time that the Lombardy poplar was introduced to this country. Another new plant was the weeping willow tree which was plan ted in groves. In 1784 seeds of the buckeye and Kentucky tree were planted. Trees of these species survive there today. Evergreen and aspen trees were planted also about this time. In 1785 live oaks and the magnolia were started. After the close of the Revolutionary War, Washington had a green house built and he was sent seeds of palm, jasmine, mandarin orange, pepper, mango, Cinnamon, coffee, sugar cane, papaw, lime and others from all parts of the United States and the West Indies. Plans for "live fences" or hedging were planted to protect crops, fruit trees, intruders, human as well as brute.

The Kauffs for their golden wedding anniversary will have open house from 2 to 5p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 14. ALWAYS WE'VE HEARD of blue ladies, blue skies, blue heaven, and blue rooms- but blue roses? Green gladioli and zinnias, yes. But blue roses? Yep, there are such things. Greenland Studios of Miami, Fla. are advertising blue roses at $8.98 per bush, noting that they have been "specially bred to show off delicate blue shades iii the silver gray petals." Speaking of roses, the All-American Rose Selections award winning roses for 1971 are Aquarius, a pink grandiflora; the Redgold, a floribunda chrome- yellow rose with brick-red edges; and Command Performance, a fluorescent orange-red hybrid tea.

As we mentioned before, Sherri's future is anything but bright. There is no cure for the disease she has. Members of Meigs Salon, Eight and Forty, an organization dedicated to raising money for and working with cystic fibrosis children, took a beautiful cake and a gift to Sherri. WE HAVE IT ON GOOD authority that Carrie Neutzling was a "smash" in the milkman role of a skit presented at the American Legion Auxiliary midwinter conference in Columbus last weekend. Seems her specialty was Iimburger cheese and somehow her impromptu comments got around to air pollution ...

OU.LtR WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (UPI)- The l3 Appalachia area governors have put the Nixon administration on notice they will fight replacement of the Appalachian aid program by a proposed federal- state revenue sharing plan. The governors on the Appalachian Regional Commission met for three hours here Friday and unanimously adopted a resolution calling on President Nixon and Congress to extend the program for four years. At the same time, the governors and their representatives were briefed by White House aides on the Nixon plan to share $16 billion in federal revenues with state and local governments. Ohio Gov. John J. Gilligan. said the President's plan, presen ted by Ed Harper, assistant to the President for domestic affairs, was "greeted with general scepticism" by the nine governors present and the representatives of two others. "The governors today raised some very serious questions about the practical aspects of this program," Gilligan told newsmen after the meeting. Mixing Money ' 'The Nixon administration is making a big deal about taking $5 billion out of the $230 billion national budget and returning it to the states," Gilligan said . "All they're doing is inflating that figure and putting the money in a Mix Master." - Gilligan explained that $11 billion of the proposed $16 billion to be shared already goes back to the states in federal grants-part of it for the Appalachia program. He added that under revenue sharing, the big cities would be able to use their power in state legislatures and outbid Appalachia areas for the federal money. Gilligan said Harper claimed the funds shared with the states would grow with the national economy. But the Ohio governor noted the percentage of the national budget returned to the states apparently always will be the same. Gilligan also quoted Harper as saying "nobody will lose" under the administration's proposed revenue sharing plan. But Gilligan said Govs. Arch A. 2 the highway, sheared off a power pole and ploughed over an embankment early Saturday morning on U.
