According to an announcement by the

by President Nixon would reduce library

$18,000,000 for the year which begins July
1, 1971. Ohio's m onthly alloca tions would
drop from $149,916 to $43,079. Such a cut
would require an immediate elimination of
positions and services in the state library,
termination of bookmobile services, and

provide funds through which the bookmobile could continue operating.
Jon Louden, Gallia County District

Threaten
Funding
WELLSTON - Residents in Jackson,
Gallia and Meigs Counties stand to lose
approximately $75,000 per year in initial
state funding for mental health facilities
and services if the county commissioners
of the three counties fail to fund the "648
Mental Health Services and Facilities
Board."
The State Legislature enacted
legislation creating Multi-County Health
Service and Facilities Boards (called 648
Boards) and left it to the county commissioners to appoint some of the members to this board.
THREE TOONE
State funds are available to these
boards on a ratio of three to one. This
commits the Sht,e to furnish three dollars
for every one -', ' r funded by the county's
commissioners.
Recently members of the 648 Board
reported that the final consensus, after
meetings with the County Commissioners,
was that the Commissioners in the three
counties are not presently ready to support
financially the administrative and initial
funding of the 648 Board. Both Gallia and
Jackson County Commissioners have
stated that funds are not available. Meigs
County Commissioners are still undecided,
pending efforts of Jackson and Gallia
County to come up with their shares.
In local fundings of this nature "in
kind" funds are allowed, and a county can
claim credit for office space or office
equipment furnished as part of that
county's share of local money.
Warren Watters, Jackson, is chairman
of the 648 Board. Dr. Bernard F . Niehm,
Dr. G. William Bowers, Jr., and Malcolm
Orebaugh represent Gallia County. Mrs.
Maxine Wingett, John W. Blaettnar, Frank
Porter Jr., a!:ld Robert Morris represent
Meigs County. Mrs. John Zinunerly and B.
B. Mills, Mrs. Earl Levine, and Mrs. Paul
Perkins represent Jackson County.
INITIAL BUDGET
An initial budget of $17,836.75 was
approved at the last board meeting and is
being submitted to the State for approval.
This is a 6-month budget to get mental
health services started in these counties.
Of this budget, the State of Ohio would
supply 75 per cent, or $13,365.07, leaving
$4,471.68 to be supplied by Jackson, Gallia
and Meigs Counties. This would make each
county's share approximately $1,500. Of
this a portion can be supplied "in kind" ,
cutting the cash outlay even further for
each county.
If this initial budget of $17,836.75 is
approved by the State, the County Commissioners will again be approached to
furnish their share. Each county can come
up with funds from the county treasury; a
tax levy; or donations from outside
agencies or individuals (or firms) .
LAST CHANCE
The 648 Board, in submitting the
budget, further stipulated that if the
budget were approved by the State, and
the County Commissioners reject the
funding of the board, after additional
educational meetings with the commissioners and representatives of various
service and civic organizations have been
held, then the Board felt it would be
necessary to recommend to the State Dept.
of Mental Hygiene, and to the County
Commissioners, that their (the Board's)
services are no longer needed, and that the
Board should be formally dissolved.
If the 648 Board is formally dissolved,
this would again leave the Southeastern
Counties of Ohio without any possible way
of obtaining State or Federal funds for
mental health facilities and services.
CONTACT COMMISSIONERS
The 648 Board suggested that individuals who want to see mental health
services and facilities established should
contact their County Commissioners and
let their opinions be known.

JAMES W. "BOONE" WEAVER, 73, is still going strong with his skiff
business in Racine. Here he works on the jointed core plywood bottom of a skiff
nearing completion. The family has been in the boat building business for over 100
years.

Skiffs in Demand
Pictures and Story
By BOB HOEFLICH
RACINE - It has been often said if
you build a better mouse trap, the world
will beat a path to your door.
At least that's the way it has worked
out for over 100 years for the family of
James W. (Boone) Weaver Jr. of Racine.
Not that the family has .built mouse
traps but it has been responsible for some
of the best skiffs ever to cut into a wave on
the Old Ohio.
With sleek metal and fiberglass boats
produced on assembly lines of the nation to
meet an increasing demand, it seems a bit
unbelievable that the Weaver skiffs requiring a great deal of personal labor would be able to compete. The Weaver
boats are hanging right in there, however,
with sales firm at about 100 a year.
There's a r eason for this. It is
primarily the safety factor. The Weaver
skiffs are wide and difficult to upset.
They're sturdy and won't "skid" out from
under the passenger.
There's a long history behind the
Weaver skiffs which were first built by
Capt. George Smith, great-grandfather of
Racine's current builder , "Boone"
Weaver. Today, the skiffs are still made
along the same patterns as the originals,
but with some variations. Some of the old
patterns are still kept in
Boone 's
workshop located at the rear of the Weaver
home in Racine.
Founder A Riverman
Captain Smith, founder of the family
trade, was a long-time riverman. He was
born Jan. 10, 1818 in Jackson County, now
in West Virginia, and left his horne at the

age of 14 to follow the river, flatboating
and steamboating for more than a half
century.
From flatboating at the age of 17, he
started to steamboat, making his first trip
on the steamer, " Lady Byron" on which
one passenger that trip was the famous
warrior and Indian Cheif, Black Hawk,
who had been captured a short time before
and was being taken to Washington.
Capt. Smith was only on the boat about
six weeks, having been hired as a
deckhand at $15 a month. Mter this, he ran
on the steamers, Cirrus, the Monroe and
the Warsaw, as a deckhand and mate
about three years.
At the end of that period he built a
small boat at Old Town Rocks, calling her
the Don which he ran about three months
until she sank at Blennerhassett. He next
bought a third interest in t e steamer,
Shepherdess, on which he acted as mate
from Keokuk, Ia., to New Orleans. He ran
her about nine months, sold out, and
bought a ferry boat at St. Louis called the
Brooklyn which the ice cut down the
following winter at the mouth of the
Missouri River.
He then went to Zanesville, Ohio, and
bought a boat called The Ohio, ran her
about a year from Pomeroy to Parkersburg, sold her, and bought the steamer R.
H. Undsay, a 120-ton boat, and ran her in
the same trade about a year longer, and
then sold her.
Capt. Smith went as mate on the
steamer, Ohio, a large freight boat running from Pittsburgh to Louisville, was on
her a short time, quit, and bo~ht the

Supt. Smith Suspended
PT. PLEASANT - I. Brooks Smith,
superintendent of Mason County Schools,
Saturday was suspended at least until
March 27.
Action of the county school board
came at the end of the first day of the
formal hearing 22 charges brought earlier
by four members of the board.
After a series of witnesses called in
support of the charges, the board went into
executive session at 3:53 p.m. and upon
returning at 4:38 p.m., member Ray
Fields moved :
"That I. Brooks Smith be suspended as
superintendent of schools effective this
day and the board employ Charles Withers
as acting superin tendent of schools, effective this date. Charles Eshenauer

seconded the motion. Bill Withers joined
Eshenaur and Fields in voting for the·
motion. Harry Siders voted no. Board
President Stevens, one of four members
who collaborated in bringing the 22
charges, did not vote.
Before the final vote, ex-supt. Smith's
counsel, Gordon Billheimer made it clear
he believed an injustice was inherent in the
motion to suspend. He pointed out Smith's
side had not been heard and hinted that
West Virginia law permit.'&gt; elected officials
to be impeached .
The board approved a motion to
continue the hearing March 27, but Siders
again voted no, observing, "I think it's a
bunch of malarky.

wreck of the steamer, Buckeye Belle,
which had sank in the Muskingum River.
He raised her, rebuilt her, and ran her
from Portsmouth to Pittsburgh about
three months before trading her for the
Irene which he ran a year before selling
and buying the Alto.
He then bought a keel boat, put the
Alto's machinery on her and called her
Young America. This steamer ran from
Parkersburg to Gallipolis several months
before being taken south by Capt. Smith
and later sinking in the St. Frances River.
Capt. Smith then built the steamer
Lavinia Logan and ran her in the Pittsbur h and Cincinnati trade about a year
when the Civil War began. He sold her and
bought the Sam Snowden, a towboat which
he ran between Pomeroy and Louisville.
He also towed for the government up the
Tennessee River to Pittsburgh landing and
was there when the great battle of Shiloh
was fought.
Selling out, Capt. Smith resolved to
quit the river, but couldn't stand land!
In a short time he built another boat at
Parkersburg called the Quickstep but sold
her before she ever ran. He then bought
the Spray which ran from Pittsburgh to
Louisville and part of the time to Nashville up the Cumberland River.
Capt. Smith at this point moved to
Racine. He is credited with inventing the
whistle for boats. Before the whistle it was
customary to use a bell. On cold nights the
snow covered bell could not be heard any
distance, and so evolved the boat whistle.
In Racine, in 1869, Capt. Smith began
building the small river skiffs which have
provided the family with a trade for four
generations. His construction shop was
along the river.
Capt. and Mrs. Smith were the parents
of five children who included three sons,
John Q., Elias and George, Jr., and two
daughters, Hattie, who married Joseph
Daniels, and Ella, who married L. A.
Waver. Elias and George worked in the
boat construction business.
L.A. Waver, the grandfather of Boone
Weaver, was a monument man. He and
Mrs. Waver had a son, James W. Weaver,
Sr. (the father of Boone) . Mrs. Weaver
died when the child was two years old and
he was reared by his grandparents, Capt.
and Mrs. Smith. Naturally, he was involved as a youngster with the boat construction operations around the Smith
home.
However, L. W. Weaver was against
his only son entering the skiff building
business. He owned a part interest in a
milling company and so for nine years,
James W. Weaver, Sr., worked in the
milling business. But the business was
detrimental to his health so he went into
the boat business and was selling his own
products in 1895

Boone was ac ive in the building of the

He had been attending Pomeroy High
School, traveling by street car. However,
in his senior year, 1916, he had a health
problem and withdrew from school. His
mother had died a year earlier.
All went well with the business. The
father and son turned out many boats and
in 1916 the father also took over the
monument business upon the death of his
father, L. A. Weaver.
However, along came World War II. It
was difficult to get materials for the

tinue the business. With the skiff business
slowed down considerably, Boone went to
work at the Marietta Manufacturing Co. as
a carpenter. He remained there until the
end of the war but still added an assist in
the skiff construction business when
needed by his father who remained active
until his death in 1949. After stints of
employment with the Pomeroy Cement
Block Co. and the Philip Sporn Plant,
Boone went back to boat building on a full
time basis in 1950.
Materials were unsatisfactory, he
said, and as a result, the labor involved
was tremendous. He made a contact with
Dra'vo, one of the best customers of his
father, laid out his material problems and
the company established contacts for him
so that good materials would be available.
The business has had "smooth sailing"
since that time. Boone contacted all of the
customers of his late father and informed
them the business would continue.
Dravo is the biggest customer of the
firm. Last year alone they purchased 37 of
the Weaver skiffs to use on their various
jobs. Other orders come by telephone or in
the mail. Weaver bids on government
orders. Advertising is at a minimum. One
time a year, an advertisement runs in the
Waterways Journal and in the Inland
River Record.
Constructed in the large double garage
building which was on the rear of the
Weldon home place where Mr . and Mrs.

Weaver reside, the sides of the skiffs are
now built of Spanish cedar which comes
from Hondorus through a Cincinnati firm.
The bottoms of the boats, which range
from 12 to 20 feet in length, are made of
jointed core plywood - generally with
only two pieces used per bottom - and
these are ship lapped together. Candlewicking is used between the sides and
the bottom for waterproofing. The boats
are given two coats of paint before leaving
the Weaver shop.
Once completed a boat is put on roller:;
and moved outside. An electric hoist is
used to load it onto a Polj'lt Express truck
which stops regularly at the Weaver home
to pick up the skiffs for delivery.
It takes several days to construct one
of the boats. However, if it's a rush order,
Weaver and his capable carpenter, George
Neigler of Racine, can turn out a skiff in a
day, except for the painting. Stems of the
skiffs are made exactly as they were in the
days of Captain Smith and these are
turned out by another employe, John
Bentz, also of Racine.
Weaver feels that his skiff business
has provided a good living and he likes the
freedom of being self employed.
Numerous pieces of power equipment are
a great asset to the business over the
"good old days" of over 100 years ago
when the family first began to "build a
better mousetrap."

The first real comparison of newspaper-radio-television effectiveness for a
retail advertiser has been completed in Atlanta and the results show that
newspapers deliver more than three times the efficiency per advertising dollar.
This isn't news to newspaper admen. But it ought to raise a few eyebrows in
the retail business where broadcasters have been spreading their tales of blue
heaven in an attempt to get a piece of the retail advertising pie.
The beauty of the Atlanta study is in its impartiality and its believability
because all four parties to the argument participated in it : Newspapers, radio and
television stations, and a large retailer.
Newspaper ads totalling 11.6pages were run in Sunday's paper and in morning
and evening editions Monday and Tuesday prior to a large sale. On the same days
438 thirty-second spots were run - 177 on five television stations and 261 on five
radio stations making more than eight conunercials for every hour of broadcast
time.
·
From 2,176 interviews in the departments which sold the advertised items, the
retailer found that newspapers which received 38 per cent of the total ad budget
developed 71 per cent of the advertising influence, television which received 49 per
cent of the budget produced 28 per cent of the ad influence, and radio accounted for
12 per cent of the budget and only 9per cent of the ad influence.
This is the most convincing argument for retail use of newspaper advertising
in lieu of other media .

SUSPECT IN VIEW
COLUMBUS (UPI) - A
beefed-up homicide squad indicated today they had a
definite suspect in the Mitchell
slayings and might soon file
charges against "a young
Columbus man." Police did not
elaborate on the suspect in
Tuesday's stabbing death of
Mrs. Christina J¥1itchell, 25, and
her infant son, eight-month-old
Scott, in their Thurber Manor
townhouse.

The deadline for paying the
first half of 1970 taxes was
Saturday. As soon as the county
auditor makes the penalty
charge to the treasurer for the
first half collection of 1970
payment may be made. Dates
when the books will be open for
payment of delinquent taxes
and penalties will be announced
by the treas\ll'er 's office.

POMEROY- If you haven't
paid your Meigs County real
estate taxes for the first half
collection of 1970 you're out of
luck for the time being.
In the past taxes could be paid
at any time at the treasurer's
office. This arrangement has
been changed by section 321.12
of the Ohio Revised Code according to an annoumcement
made by Howard Frank, Meigs
County Treasurer.

NOT EVERYBODY can spin a basketball on one finger
but Steve LaValley and Doug Warden, left to right, don't
seem to have any problems. The youngsters have been
practicing some of the antics performed by the Harlem Globe
Trotters under the direction of Bill Hill.

Being a child photographer is
an exhausting work. "The
mother usually expects me to
lift the child up on the platform
and then lift him down." The
slight Mr. Wellman commented. "Imagine doing that
for hours! "
The physical strain, plus the
taxing of energy involved in
making funny faces and actions
to drive away the fears of his
small subjects leave him
"ready to rest" at the end of his

It is easy to photograph a
child up to the age of 18 months.
"About that time," he said,
"they begin to get smart.
They've been to the doctor's
office and around a little."
Wellman is a skilled, experienced photographer. Those
for whom he has worked express satisfaction with him.
Even so, Wellman would rather
work outside or in his own
studio. He enjoys most of all

By Pat Houck

GALLIPOLIS- At the recent
meeting of the Philomathean
club, Mrs. D. Paul Davies
presented a review of Zelda by
Nancy Milford. Hostess for the
evening was Mrs. James Mills.
This biography of the wife of
F. Scott Fitzgerald, reveals the
tragic life of Zelda, a brilliant
but unstable woman. Zelda had
remained a shadowy figure
while the story of their reckless
life had always been told from
the viewpoint of her famous
husband. In this work of Mrs.
Milford, it becomes evident that
both of the Fitzgeralds were
deeply dependent upon each
other. In a way their tragedy
resulted from this unusually
close relationship. Though they
shared the same dreams, they
often fought for the same
ground.
Providing inspiration for
Scott's writings by her diaries,
her capers, and her unusual
personality, Zelda at the same
time resented this pos·sessiveness. She realized his

The Gallia County hills last week were dotted with white
. patches of snow. They looked like my house when I leave a
magazine where our dog - who believe it or not has no name can reach it and then tear into hundreds of pieces.
I HAD A MOST INTERESTING experience Friday. Emily
Grose of Kyger Creek High School had invited me to take part in a
panel discussion of today's problems. Young people and invited
guest served on the panel. The speeches of the young people
showed much research and thought about what is facing them in
life. I found my mind teeming with questions I wanted to ask. And
I left with a nagging apprehension about the fact, adults don't
really think there is a generation gap (I was one of these until just
recently), and the young people do.
Since I've been going to school I have had a chance to get
closer to today 's youth, and I hear what they are saying. It makes
me pause. I don't despair, but I DO think.
I also had a nice visit with John Unroe Wednesday evening.
John has forgotten more history than most of us have known. In
fact, he knows so much about so many things it will take me some
time to unravel the many stories he gave me. John had read my
Vmton Mill story and told me of another old mill "down the
river." I'll report more about this later.

Dear Mr. Editor,
My friends and I have been thinking about a certain problem
of the Colony Theater. When you turn 12 years of age you have to
pay the adult price. There are some movies which are for adults
only, but you have to be 17 or older to see the movie. So when you
are 12 you should be able to get into the adults movies or either not
pay the adult price until 17.
Not only I have thought of this but many friends I talk to also
wonder about this certain problem.

great talent, yet felt competitive towards it. Her own
writings were remarkable for
her keen ability to describe.
The early life of the Fitzgeralds is told as they rode the
crest of the Jazz age. Zelda was
an original, the first American
flapper. Unfortunately the dizzy
pace of their lives led to
repercussions, which may in
part have been responsible for
Zelda's mental breakdown and

the collapse of their marriage.
Oddly enough, the ensuing
years, in and out of mental
hospitals, brought forth Zelda's
first novel, Save Me The Waltz,
and other stories. Her letters to
her husband, are used by the
author to illuminate the portrait
of a complicated personality.
These letters had been found by
the author during an intense
research for material for her
book.

also rendered ''On This Day, Oh
Beautiful Mother" while the
bride placed a corsage at the
statue of the Blessed Mary.
Guests were seated by Curtis
Bachtel, Thurman, and Keith
Woolum, Jackson. Mr. Gerald
Conley, Jackson, served the
groom as best man.
The bride wore an A-line
empire gown of white organza.
It featured a scoop neckline
surrounded by a yoke of venise
lace. The same lace motif
adorned the wide cuffs of the
fitted organza sleeves. An
added touch of luster was
achieved by a tiny pearl clip
which held a bow and streamers
at the lifted waistline. Trimmed
in venise lace, a mantilla flowed
from a camelot cap to form the
chapel length train. A pair of
diamond earrings, the groom's
gift, completed her outfit.
The bride carried a colonial
bouquet of white rosebuds
surrounded by red rosebuds and
baby's breath and tied with
white ribbon streamers. A white
rose was taken from her
bouquet for the groom's
boutonniere.
Miss Debra Chapman of
Jackson served as maid of
honor. She wore a floor-length
red velvet skirt, falling in
graceful folds from the high
waistband. A white sheer blouse
featuring long full sleeves with
fitted cuffs was accented by a
matching red velvet choker
which held a cameo pin, a gift
from the bride. She carried a
nosegay of red rosebuds and
baby's breath and white ribbon
streamers.
Bridesmaids were Miss
Elaine Reece of Braceville,
Ohio, and Miss Debbie Choinski,
Warren, Ohio. They were attired the same as the maid of
honor and both carried a single
rer.i rose with intertwining
baby's breath and tied with
wh1te streamers. Miss Julie
Hobbs, Dayton, made the
costumes worn by the maid of
honor and the bridesmaids.
The bridesmaids and Miss
Hobbs were roommates of the
bride at Kent State.
For her daughter's wedding,
Mrs. Bower wore a silk crepe
dress in dark brown and beige
with matching beige accessories. Mrs. Taylor chose an
off-white knit suit with brown
braid trim . With this she wore a

brown blouse and brown accessories. Both mothers wore
corsages of white carnations .
A reception at the parish
house followed the ceremony,
and was catered by members of
the Altar Rosary Society of the
church.
Guests registered at the
reception and a flower
arrangement of red and white
carnations centered with a
single white candle decorated
the table, with Miss Hobbs
presiding.
For a short wedding trip, the
new Mrs. Taylor wore a twopiece brown and camel ensemble.
Both the bride and groom are
1969 graduates of Jackson High
School, and until her wedding
the bridl' attended Kent State
Umversity. Mr. Taylor is

Colwnbus. The fact that we find
the potato as a symbolic
character on the pottery used
by the Incas is evidence that the
potato was a familiar article in
their lives. The potato was of
utmost importance as their
staple food. It was a yeararound food, when made into
"chuno " in the following
manner. The potatoes were
spread on the groWtd and left all
night to freeze. The next day
men, women and children trod
the tubers with their feet in
order to squeeze the water out
of them. This process was
repeated for four or five days.
At the end of this period the
dried potatoes were stored
away.
"The potato was introduced to
Europe by the way of Spain
about 1584. The first mention of

the potato in script was by John
Gerard, the great English
Herbalist. In 1596 he had his
portrait painted holding a spray
of potato foliage. The potato has
become so closely associated
with the history of Ireland that
it is often spoken of as the ''Irish
potato" . It has become the
staple food of the people ."
"Cupids Capers" was the
program on arranging and the
leader was Mrs. Phyllis

Each of the members had

Jesus of Nazareth is TV Star
By LOUIS tASSELS
UPI ReUgion Writer
Jesus of Nazareth, already
making the radio scene as
central figure in a popular
"rock opera," soon will be seen
as the star of a series of
television spots.
The one-minute TV spots,
Which will be shown across the
rlation starting March 1, are
sponsored jointly by two major
Protestant denominations, the
United Presbyterian Church
and the United Methodist
Church.

Each of them dep1cts an
episode from the Gospels.
British actor Tim Hardy portrays Jesus. Supporting roles
are played by Israeli actors. All
of the spots were filmed in
Israel, at or near the actual
location of the events described
in the New Testament.
The Rev. Charles Brackbill, a
Presbyterian minister who produced the films, chose as his
scenarios Gospel stories which
reveal a great deal about the
character of Jesus, and the

Call of Retreat Ignored
NEW YORK (UPI) - The
soWld of retreat echoed loud
and clear on Wall Street last
week, but few experts are convinced the euphoria has passed.
Some, in fact, see the market
reaching an all - time high by
year-end, or early 1972.
Donald Solow, senior analyst
for Equity Research Associates,
said the dramatic reduction in
interest rates since last November has been the single most
important factor in fueling demand for stocks. He believes
the expansionary monetary policy and the expected recovery
in corporate profits were likely
to keep the rally going for
about a year.
Robert Johnson, research director for Paine, Webber, Jackson &amp; Curtis, suggested political
considerations make the economic outlook for 1971 much
brighter than it was a year
ago.
In analyzing economic prospects for this year, Johnson
said it is important to remember that 1972 is a presidential
election year. "The President,"
Johnson said,

N1xon is hopi

this by stimula .ng the economy. It has been exactly this
hope that has helped strengthen
the confidence factor on Wall
Street.

For the week, the NYSE
common stock index showed a
loss of 0.96 at 53.20. Standard
&amp; Poor's 500 stock index was
off 1.69 at 96.74, while the Dow
Jones industrial average of 30
selected blue chips fell 10.27 to
878.56. Of 1,822 issues on the
tape, 1,146 declined, while 542
moved higher.
Holiday Trims Volume
Turnover for the holiday
week aggregated 74,597,890
shares, down from the all-time
record of 110,616,140 shares a
week earlier. It was well above
the 55,574,840 shares traded during the year ago period.
Commenting on the market's
setback, Saul Smerling, analyst
for Standard &amp; Poor's, said the
list was entitled to a reaction.
He called it strictly technical.
Smerling said with monetary
authorities still pouring money
into the economy and business
expected to improve, "the basic
uptrend in the stock market
will not be violated."
Although Arthur F. Burns,
chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, said there is a
risk f releasing fresh forces of
infl tion, he told Congress the
admmistration 's policies are retoring vigor to the nation's
sluggish economy
Burns said the recession is
over.
"We find that a large part
of the foundation needed for an
enduring prosperity was rebuilt

during the past year, and a
general recovery of business
activity may already be under
way." he said.
The government announced
the cost of living rose only 0.1
per cent in January-the smallest monthly rise in four years.
The White House cited the report as evidence that its antiinflation campaign is working.
Wholesale Prices Surge
Somewhat less encouraging,
however, was a Labor Department report that wholesale
prices in January rose at an
even faster pace than preliminary figures indicated. The 0.7
per cent increase last month
compared with a 0.6 per cent
advance reported earlier.
In addition, wholesale prices
of industrial commodities, the
figure that is more closely
watched by economists than the
volatile food price report,
climbed 0.4 per cent.
The Federal Reserve Board
reported its industrial production index, described as one of
the most accurate barometers
of economic activity, rose 0.7
per cent last month as a result
of sharp increases in auto and
auto-supplying industries.
However, the index still was
2 per cent below the pre - auto
strike level and 5.4 per cent below the peak recorded in July,

flavor of His teachings, in
relatively few words.
For example, one spot deals
with the familiar story of the
woman who was caught in the
act of adultery and taken before
Jesus for judgment.
In the film, she is hauled
before Jesus by religious
leaders who remind Him that
the law calls for stoning such an
offender to death. They think
they are setting a clever trap
for Jesus: if He shows mercy to
the woman, He'll be guilty of
violating the religious law, and
can be condemned Himself.
Jesus responds by seizing a
larg~ sto~e t:om the ground and
offermg 1t m turn to several
members of the ·crowd. "Who is
without sin?" Jesus demands of
them. "Let him throw the first
stone."
No one dares take up His
challenge, and the crowd soon
melts away, leaving Jesus alone
with the terrified woman. Jesus
gently unties her boWld hands
and recites part of an old
psalm: "The Lord does not deal
with us according to our sins,
nor reward us according to our
iniquities. For as Heaven is high
above the earth, so great is His

steadfast love toward those who
fear Him."
Brackbill says the spots
aren't aimed at any particular
age group.
They're for all people who'ye
heard a lot about Jesus but
really don't know much about
Him.
"We think Jesus can be as
compelling for twentieth century man as for men of past
ages," he says. "So rather than
talking about Him, we decided
to show Him as He was in His
own time."

of pushing the programs of
Gov. John J. Gilligan through
that chamber.
The Democrats flew off at all
angles during floor debate and
split, 22 in favor and 20
against, as the revenue-sharing
resolution was cleared overwhelmingly. Only two Republicans broke ranks.
In tairness to the Democrats,
it must be noted the subject
was enormously complex and
probably no party position was
taken. Moreover, the resolution
was in the form of a request
to Congress for a Constitutional
Convention on revenue sharing.
Some votes may not have represented the actual feelings of
members on the principle of
revenue sharing along.

Over Revenue Sharing
Nevertheless, it should be
pointed out that further demonstrations of independence by
the Democrats, whose ranks
apparently contain some headstrong freshmen , could prove
costly as the year progresses.
Pressure On Congress
The idea behind the resolution, sponsored by Rep. Charles
E. Fry, R-Springfield, is to get
33 other states to adopt it and
get a convention. More realistically, the plan is to put
pressure on the Democraticcontrolled Congress to act on
President Nixon's proposed revenue sharing program.
Gov. Gilligan has not expressed any desire to pressure
Congress to adopt Nixon's plan.
He favors a '3ystem where individuals are credited on their
federal income tax return depending on how much they pay
in state taxes. That way the
money never sees Washington.
This is the first irony. Traditionally, Republicans have favored sending less money to
Washington and doing more at
the local level. Now, some of
the Democrats are thinking along these lines.
The second irony is that some
big city Democrats, namely
Reps . Anthony J. Russo and
Patrick A. Sweeney of Cleveland, expressed support of the
revenue sharing resolution on
the argument of states rights .
Big city Democrats normally
are prone to favor direct federal grants in massive amounts
to help solve their urban problems. But Russo and Sweeney
said the state must assert itself
to acquire shared funds from
Washington .
Cool On Sharing
Still another Democrat, freshman Marcus A. Roberto of
Ravenna, turned things around
and warned revenue sharing
would make the state dependent
on the federal government for
revenue.

POMEROY - Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Clyde
Saunders of Gallipolis on their Golden Wedding armiversary. The
couple are celebrating "their day" today at their home on Lower
River Road. Couldn't happen to a nicer couple. Best wishes and
may all your years be golden.

CERTAINLY AN INCENTIVE to all of us is a story that
appeared recently in a florist magazine about Z. D. Blackistone
who celebrated his 100th birthday Feb. 16.
Reaching the age of 100 is an achievement per se, but what
makes Mr. Blackistone remarkable is the fact that he continues
active in the day-to-day management of his florist shops in
Washington, D. C.
Mr. Blackistone, who drives his own car, has seen his annual
driver's license examinations turn him into a celebrity.
Washington newspapers and television stations report his
examinations, which he has passed with flying colors in detail. He
is the oldest licensed driver in Washington.
Renny and Harmon O'Brien met Mr. Blackistone at
Pinehurst, North Carolina when he was 92. He was playing golf
there with an 83-year~ld partner. Mr. Blackistone still plays golf;
in fact, he participated in a tournament last March.
Eating right for Mr. Blackistone includes a glass of wine with
every meal and sleeping right means a 15 minute nap after lunch
before going back to work.
THE QUAKE THAT occurred in Los Angeles recently was
felt by residents there several miles distant from the city. One of
them was a cousin of Mrs. Ross (Marie) Norris of Syracuse.
Miss Helen Vale, Pomona,formerlyofRipley, W.Va., lives 30
miles east of Los Angeles. She wrote that the quake was felt in
Pomona, but without damage to her home or its contents. Last fall
13 homes were destroyed in Pomona by a brush fire that was
believed to have been delibertly set.
Miss Vale is one of the fortunate ones, having escaped two
close calls.
CONGENIAL VIRGU.. CAMPBELL of Pomeroy will be 79
years old next Sunday but it isn't his birthday armiversary. Mr.
Campbell was born Feb. 29, 1892. That's Leap Year, you know.
A little premature, but best wishes and a happy day.

Overnight Wire Dispatches
By United Press International
COLUMBUS -GOV. JOHN J. Gll.LIGAN said Friday if the federal government does not locate~
a transportation research center near the proposed Ohio Transportation Research center the state
project would not be "self supporting" and may be discarded. Gilligan armounced at a news conference that he would lead a delegation to Washington in an attempt to convince Transportation
Secretary John Volpe to locate the federal facility near the Ohio center which is located between
Marysville and Bellefontaine.
"It seems somewhat dubious at the moment that the center without federal involvement and
funds will be self supporting," said Gilligan. "H we don't get it the whole plan will be reviewed."
Gilligan, however, said he was optimistic that Ohio would land the federal facility. Eleven states
were reported to be in the running for the facility and Ohio is one of them.
WASHINGTON -SENATE INVESTIGATORS charged Friday that the books of big beer, liquor
and cigarette companies "clearly indicate" the firms have been deeply involved in bribes and kickbacks to U.S. military persormel in Asia. Among those mentioned in documents made public by the
Senate investigations subcommittee were Liggett &amp; Meyers Tobacco Co., National Distillers and
Chemical Corp., and the brewers of Falstaff Beer.
The same documents contained affidavits charging that Sgt. William Higdon, indicted with
seven others last week on corruption charges, was pocketing thousands of dollars "as early as
September, 1967" for promoting sales of L&amp;M cigarettes in Southeast Asia at a rate of $12 a case.
COLUMBUS- TilE STATE TREASURER'S office has been charged with illegally placing
millions of dollars in non-interest accounts at banks around the state for many years when the funds
should have been kept in local institutions. State Treasurer Gertrude Donahey has asked Attorney
General William Brown for a formal opinion on the matter, and will take no action until she gets it.
Brown is quoted as saying "the accounts definitely appear to be illegal.''
Deputy Treasurer James Dayton said the accounts are "illegal as hell ... they have been for
years," according to a copyrighted story appearing in the Hovitz Newspapers. Ohio law was said to
require state funds be put in Columbus banks, but if they don't want all of the total sum, the rest then
can be put in banks outside Columbus. Dayton said his records date back to 1951 showing annual
deposits in banks around the state. He said he knew of no year when Columbus banks did not ask for
"far more deposits than were available."
COLUMBUS- FORMER GOV. JAMES A. RHODES believes America's greatest challenge in
the next 10 years will be to curtail the welfare loan, including getting able bodied persons off the rolls.
"Welfare is the worst system ever thrust upon the people of the North American continent," he told a
Columbus Jaycee awards banquet. "And unless we find a way to reverse recent trends, more than 10
per cent of the population will be on relief rolls in a few short years."
Rhodes, who left office just six weeks ago, said the long-range effort to reduce the welfare burden
should include birth control education for welfare mothers, and expanded vocational and technical
education aimed at training welfare youngsters for jobs.
CINCINNATI - THE AMERICAN FINANCIAL CORP., a multi-faceted Cincinnati-based
holding company with assets of nearly $700 million, will soon be the new publisher of Cincirmati's
morning newspaper, The Enquirer. The E. W. Scripps Co. agreed Friday to sell its controlling interest in The Enquirer, 502,000 shares, to American Financial for $40 a share or slightly more than $20
million.
The deal now hinges on acceptance from either the U.S. Justice Department or U. S. District
Court in Cincinnati, and the Federal Reserve Board. Scripps, which owns the Cincinnati Post and
Times-Star, agreed in 1968 to sell its 60 per cent interest in The Enquirer to stave off anti-trust action
by the Justice Department. For this reason, the Justice Department or. the District Court here which
handled the proceedings must approve the sale.
