Those looking for a real bargain in
a comprehensive health evaluation,
need look no funher. The Meigs Multiphasic Screening Program to be
offered this fall is just that.
A joint effort of the Meigs County Health Department, Veterans
Memorial Hospital, and the Meigs
County Council on Aging, .the program will take residents through a
wide mnge of medical evaluations at
a nominal cost - from a low of $5
to a high of $30, based on income

level.
Nanna Torres, R.N., director of
nurses at the Health Depanment, who
heads up the program, has estimated
that if an individual went to doctors
for the evaluations to be offered·at the
multiphasic screening. the cost could
well exceed $800.
She emphasized that all Meigs
countians are eligible ·to panicipate
since there is no income criteria.
As Torres explained, those with
low incomes may benefit from the
lower cost by giving a repon on their
income. Those who prefer not to get

As the NAACP slides back into

Defense Fund (a separate organization), the Urban League, the ACLU

.For.the fifth time in seven games
1his season, the Mets rallied to ~at
the Braves. This time, it was a 7-6
victory Sunday night on Alex
Ochoa's I Oth-inning homer, which
capped a comeback from a six-run
deficit.
"It probably was the biggest
game of my career," said Butch
Huskey, who hit a two-run homer in
the second and a three-run drive in
the fourth, driving in a career-high
five runs.
"When you're down. by six, we
were all going up there with the
intention of getting on base and getting something started," he said.
New York overcame four-run
.' deficits to win the first two games of
the series and trailed in all five of its
wins against the Braves this season.
Ochoa's homer at Thmer Field
came off Mike Bielecki (3-6).
"It was a bad pitch," Bielecki
said. "I tried to go outside, but left
it over the middle."
Greg McMichael (6-6) pitched
two hitless innings for the victory,

Burton captures Jiffy Lube 300 flag
By MIKE RECHT
LOUDON. N.H. (AP) - .Jeff
Burton got a taste of what it must be
like to go up against the Energizer
· Bunny, and he still came out ahead.
: Burton had his second W'mston
; Cup victory well in liand with only
~ a few laps to go Sunday at the I.OS8' mile New Hampshire International
: Speedway. All he needed was a
: splash of gas, and the Jiffy Lube 300
• NASCAR race was his.
· "I was convinced that everyone
: would have to stop (for fuel), but
then the S car kept running and running, aJid running," he said. "But I
thought there was no way I was
going to lOse this race because of
that. And llcnew if we lost this race
because of that, (owner) Jack Roush
would slit his wrists, because he
hates getting beat on fuel mileage.
"I was getting ready to start
yelling on the radio to find out if he
was going to pit, and fortunately he

did. We would have never caught ·
him."
The No. 5 was Terry Labonte, and
like thC bunny, he kept going and
going and going to take the lead after
Burton pitted on the the 285th lap.
Labonte acknowledged the thought
of not pitting entered·his mind.
"We thought about not stopping
.for fuel at the end, but it wasn't .a
good enough gamble," he said. "We
would have really looked stupid if
we had run out of fuel sitting on the
back straightaway with a couple of
laps to •go."
Bunon retook the lead when
Labonte went in, and breezed the last
nine laps to a 5.4-second victory over
Dale Earnhardt, who really never
threatened as he went his 44th race
without a victory. And he almost
ruined it for Burton when the two
made the final stop for gas.
Earnhardt had to swerve to avoid .

hitting Burton, who was pulling
away from his stall.
"I actually think that happens
uite
a bit during the year and durq
ing every race," Bunon said, ••It just
normally doesn't happen with IS
laps to go and the guys running I·2
hitting each other.'That's a recipe for
disaster when you're pitting near
each other.
"Fortunately for both of us, it didn't change the complexion of the
race ... maybe helped us a bit. We
came in 6.2 seconds ahead. and came
out 6.7 or 8 ahead."
Labonte finished seventh, but he
came out of it with something: He
took over the series point lead from
'Jeff Gonion, who couldn't overcome
his worst'starting spot of the season,
. and fiIRIS
. hed
29th, and a Oat ttre,

"I give them guys a lot of credit," Thome said about the 1\vins
pitchers. "They've all got good .
stuff. They've got a chance to have
a good ballclub. But when you do get
locked in, the main thing is to swing

in Cleveland's win over Minnesota
on Satwday.

Colon (2·2) didn't allow a hit
until there were two outs in the fifth

high as 98 mph to record four strike·outs.
"It's only going to help me stay
with the team, and help the team to
win," Colon said.
The Indians have now won 8 of

The pitching hasn't done much to

LOS ANGELES ) - It was O.J.

He bought it20 years ago, near the

accused of murdering her.

"A multi-faceted array of things

Monday, July 14, 1997

In a landmark lawsuit on behalf
of 60,000 night attendants, the
nation's top five cigarette · makers
and two trade groups are accused of
lying for decades about the dangers
of secondhand smoke. The damages
· sought in the first such case to come
to trial total $5 billion.
Opening argumenis were expected to begin today.
The lawsuit says cigarette makers
"through brilliant deception and
artifice" convinced night.attendants
!hat exposure to secondhand smoke
did not pose any health risk . The
defendants "ignored. manipulated
and distoned clear medical and scientific data."
The industry denies smoking and
secondhand smoke cause any illness. And even if nonsmokers are at
risk, the comP.anies say, flight attendants show no greater sign of illness
tied to smoke than the general population.

By Phillip Alder
Who said this? "I should have no
objection to a repetition oJ the S!lllle
life from its beginning, only asking
the advantages authors have in a second edition to correct some faults of
the first."
In their latest confronlation, ffiM 's
chess computer, Deep Blue, did.
remarkably well against Garry Kasparov. I just wondered how it chose
its opening moves. The computer's
memory presumably contains all
lcnown opening theory. So, how does
it resolve whether to reply to I. e4
with, say, eS, e6, c5 or c6?
·
In bridge, the first play -- the
opening lead -- is based on much
more infonnation; the auction. And
the more bids you have heard, the.
better the picture of the unseen hands
you can build up.
If you wish, look only atlhe West
hand and decide upon your lead
against four spades.
Nonh bids what he expects his
partner to make.
~ What card should West selecl? If
he opts for the superficially attractive
diamond queen, declarer will win in
the dummy and play a club. If Wes1
now switches to a spade, ·declarer
wins and loses another club. But
declarer cannot be stopped from getting two club ruffs in the dwnmy. His
winnel$ will be four spades, two
THREE
~ONOERFUL,, ---~ hearts, t)'IO diamonds and two club
SE"'-JTI FUL ,__
ruffs: 10 in all.
WEE.I&lt;.S.
However, with his strong clubs
over South, West should lead a
trump. And he should keep leading
trumps every time he wins a club
trick. .Now declarer gets only one
club ruff in the dummy and finishes
one down. He will lose one ·heart and
three club tricks.
The observation was made by
Benjamin Franklin.
