cothe attorney representing the group.
"The issues will remain the same as in the previous
suit," Boulger explained.
He added that rather than file with a large group of
plaintiffs as before, the property owners named will be a
representation of the affected landowners, and the suit's
focus will probably be limited to about three parcels of
land.
"It looks as if this will be ripened again for the court
of common pleas," Boulger added. "It's a nice legal
question raised here that has been dedded in several different states, but there has been no uniformity to the
decisions. It's varied from state to state."
The conflict arose over right-of-way through Gallia

County abandoned by CSX ill 1993. CSX allowed the
right-of-way to be used by the park district for the devel·
opment of a rail-to-trails project from Gallipolis through
the northern end of the county.
But property owners in the Bidwell and Vinton areas
have argued they have agreements from. CSX's predecessor. some dating back to the 1870s, that give the
right-of-way to the landowners if the railroad no longer
uses the line.
The park district has so far developed two sections of
the old line for use by walkers and bicyclists - from
Pine Street in Gallipolis to McCormick Road, and from
Kerr to Bidwell.

received seven unbid state contracts
since Voinovich took office.
"Basically what I'Q~ doing is
blending all of these allegations surrounding stale contracts, campaign
contr.ibutions and contract steering

Ward, whose duties include investigating allega:tions of wrongdoing by
state officials, said he had no timeline
on when his investigation will be
completed.
"Obviously, it's a substantial
undertaking. We're talking four years
of state contracts so I think it'll probably take months."
Despite the fact that Ward continues to open inve~tigations on new
fronts inio top Voihovich administration officials and that Ward was
appointed by Voinovich in 1995,
Ward said he doesn't think this investigation is a political hot potato.
"I wouldn't say it's any hotter '
than others we've handled. We don't
look at the person involved ... just
whether they've broken ·the law or
not," he said.

"The problem is all those back·
door deals the people are never
aware of."

In Meigs County, Jean Grueser of
Minersville occasionally attends
commission meetings, and brings
along a small tape recorder to record
the proceedings. She said it is a good
idea to record the meetings if for no
other ,reason than to end debate over
what actually goes on.
The Ohio Supreme Court deci·
sian stems from White versus the
Board of County Commissioners of
Clinton County. The commission
was sued by Lizbeth White who had
aucmpted lo find infonnation about
a policy enacted by· the board on
March 31. 1993. 'The board's min:
ules of that time did not include the
information to enable White to
determine what thought and discussion wcnl into the decision-making
process.
Lentes cautioned lhat local governments including school boards
and township trustees must abide hy
the decision.
"This is a requirement, nol a
request or a suggestion," Lentcs
said.
Failure to comply could have
drastic repercussions, he explained.
For instance, any action taken by
a public board ignoring the new
requirements could be repealed if a
citizen files sui I. This could cost vil lages or school districts money in
cases where the action involves tax
levies or grants.
Some public meetings are already
recorded . Ironically, lhe Clinton
County Commissioners had pur·
chased a recording system ... and did
not usc it.

occurs.
"This bill is anti-consumer and
favors insurance companies, manufacturers, and big business. Rcsi·
dents of the 94th district should be
tremendously disappointed with
Carey's vote in favor of this legislalion," Fowler said Friday.
"John Carey has abandoned his
constituency to curry favor with big
business interest•," Fowler added.
Carey said that the consensus
opinion of district residents has been
in support of the bill. "Really, the
main opponent working against
House Bill 330 now arc the trial
attorneys."
"As an example, if you purchase
a $100 ladder at a hardware store,
$20 of that ladder's cost is going tQ
liability coverage because of lawsuits brought against the ladder's
manufacturer. Lawsuits and liability
have created what really could be
considered as an extra tax against
the consumer. We're just trying to
bring some common sense and some
responsibility to the system," Carey
said.
Fowler said capping damages is
unfair to th06e who arc injured due
to negligence. "All this bill means is
that the average Ohioan will have a
harder time gelling I heir day in wun
and winning lawsuits. €!aims of an
'explosion' of civil lawsuits are
merely a mirage created to benefit
big business," Fowler said.
"Juries are better able than legis·
lators to determine. verdicts in these
cases. I can only hope that John
think of his constituents and recon·
siders his vote before il comes up
again next week," Fowler ad(jed.

LANCASTER (AP) - An 80·
year-old man who allegedly shot and
killed his wife
55 years will
undergo a psychiatric evaluation to
determine whether he was insane at
the time of the slaying.
Fairfield County Common Pleas
Judge John D. Manin on Friday
ordered the evaluation of Thomas W.
McC.Iure Sr.
McClure is charged with aggravated murder. He was indicted last
week and pleaded innocent and innocent by reason of insanity on Friday.
Helen McClure, 79. w!IS' killed
Sept. 4 as she sat in a parked car. She
was shot nine times with a .22-caliber
semiautomatic rifie .
Deputies arrested McClure about
20 minutes after the shooting. He was
sweeping the driveway at his home
just outside Amanda.
Mrs . McCI~re had filed for
divorce two weeks earlier. Coun
documents srate her . husband had
locked her out of their house on July
17 after "she refused to have sexual
relations with him."
Courl documents filed this week
state that McClure, "knowing his
wife had a standing appointment

hairdresser, stalked, shot and killed
his wife on·the main street in Am an·
da in front of several eyewitnesses. "
If convicted, McClure could face
life in prison without parole for 20
years. He also could face an additional mandatory three-year prison
sentence because a gun was used to
commit the crime.

charged
with theft
GALLIPOLIS - 1Wo West Vir·
ginia women were arrested by Gallipolis City Police Friday for alleged·
ly shoplifting more than $70 wonh of
items from the Hills . Department
Store at the Ohio River Plaza.
A subsequent investigation

Police were called to Hills at
12:49 p.m. and found · that store
employees had detained Becky Rae
Ross, 21, Gallipolis Ferry, and Amy
Jo Cottrell, 24, Pliny, after they
reportedly tried to leave the store
without paying for the items.
Officers were informed that Ross

. lhe merchandise, while Cottrell used
an empty purse. Officers said Ross
allegedly took $34.66 wonh of items
and Cottrell took $40.88.
After reading them their rights,
police asked Cottrell ,for permission

the request and the search turned up
additional merchandise, which Ross
and Cottrell reponedly confessed to
having stolen from the Dollar General and Family Dollar stores in
Point Pleasant earlier Friday.
Ross and Cottrell were transport·
ed to the police department for booking and made an initial appearance in
Gallipolis Municipal Coun to answer
charges of theft-shoplifting, officers
said. II was not immediately known
if the case was disposed of at that
time. Officers said it was also
revealed that Cottrell is facing a warrant from Meigs County on a charge
of failure to appear.

Better policing seen
as primarily an issue
locals must address

•

By RICHARD CARELU
Associated Presa Writer
WASHING'IDN -Crime-fighting has become a hot issue of the presidential campaign, but a new report contends that any hope for victory rests
ultimately with local police, not the federal government.
"State and local officials bear the primary responsibility for combatting
most crime, especially street crime," says .. the 37-page report by fanner
Attorney General Edwin Meese III and Robert E. Moffit, both with the conservative Heritage Foundation.
President Clinton and his GOP challenger, Bob Dole, have expended
much campaign rhetoric offering prescriptions for fighting crime.
Meese, who sounded law-and-order
themes when he was a member of Ronald
Reagan 's. Cabinet, says in the report that
most solutions to the crime problem are
local.
"Federal officials don't really have very
much to do with handling crime- it's local
officials and the cop on the beat who must
respond," the fanner attorney general said
in an interview.
The report gives local police chiefs
detailed advice about improving police
work.
City police should tatget urban "hot spots" and career criminals.
"Research shows that more than half of all serious crimes is concentrated in less than 3 percent of the addresses in an urban area," Meese and Moffit say. "These areas should be the targets of short-term, unpredictable
crackdowns that tell the criminal he stands a serious chance of getting
caught ."
Noting that 6 percent of American men account for 50 percent of serious
crime, the report says " they should be a routine target of police. "
The report calls for higher police salaries, saying local communittes
"must pay police officers for the job they do ; they cannot expect to have a
first-rate police department with bargain-basement pay scales."
More police officers should be on the beat, not behind a desk .
"Instead of keeping order and enforcing the law, too many police officers
are patrolling ineffectively or being employed in ancillary functions that
could be perfonned just as easily"by civilians or private agencies," the report
contends.
Police should also live closer to the community they serve, because then
" policing becomes more than a job; it becomes a matter of protecting one 's
friends and neighbors."
"The most effective police officer is not an outsider but an insider; and
the best way to establish effective 'community policing' is for local residents
to know the police and the police to know the local residents, " the report
states. "Foot patrols should be established wherever feasible."
Meese and Moffit say poor personnel practices "result in bad, brutal or
incompetent police officers and a lowering of public confidence."
The report is sure to draw some criticism for its negative views of affirmative action programs that incorporate racial and ethnic goals or quotas . It
says the quest for diversity has led some departments to lower recruiti~
standards.
The report says police departments should aggressively recruit officers
from the ranks of the military, which the report says will expand numbers of
well-qualified minority applicants.
The report points to major recent successes in crime-fighting, detailing
progress in large cities such as New York and Houston and smaller cities,
including Lowell, Mass.; Baton Rouge, La.; Austin, Texas; and Columbia,
S.C.
"Prospects for progress are there," Meese said.

Letter to the editor
There is no hidden agenda
Dear Editor,
We are writing this letter to inform you of inaccuracies in your recent article headlined "Where's. the list 0 " The wording used in your paper would
lead the ~eader to believe that given the board's approval of the items cited
on the miSsmg.hst, that the people of our area would support the upcoming
hond ISSUe.
The following is the actual statement read at the meeting:
·•
"I would like to express our disappointment with the board's decision to
r rocced with a bond issue which includes the elimination of Cheshire- Kyger
and Addavdle Elementary. Our group expressed, in this forum. our concerns
w1th th1s 1ssue. We presented. at the board 's reques t. a list of repairs which
we feel would bnng our buildings into good condition.
"At least one board member has informed us that he has never seen the
list, leading us to believe that it was never discussed . I feel that we have conducted ourselves in a businesslike manner and were afforded little or no consideration in the matter. Given these circumstances we intend to fight the
upcoming bond issue ."
Following the article's publication, we have been approached by several
persons askmg us 1f we were "cutting a deal." Nothing could be further from
the truth. We have no hidden agenda, nor do we claim to represent the feelmgs of each and every per&gt;on in our community.
Alon~ with the "list" .we presented several sheets of signatures in petition
fonn wh1ch we~ also m1splaced. These sheets contained a sampling of what
can be accomplished wuh one afternoon'• work and also defined the diverse
support base for the position we hav.e presented at previous meetings.
Our purpose is not to set back education in Gallia County. We feel that
our system has problems that surpass those that could be repaired with new
.., buildings and better technology. Our lack of accreditation and poor test performance indicate more basic problems.
We would like to see the board issue a very si mple plan detailing their
intentions specifically, not the vague reports picked up through the paper or
by word of mouth. Perhaps then we could begin to work in a cooperative
fashion within the
rather than following the divisions originally set by the
the four former school districts.

Agnew gave up everything for pursuit of money
By DeWAYNE WICKHAM
Gannett News Service
WASHING'IDN - Spiro Agnew could have had it all.
Power. Influence. Prestige. Even the presidency. But he gave it all up for
money. ·Not the kind that comes from honest labor or wise investments, but
the cash paid under the table by bagmen in search of ill-gotten gain.
Agnew rose to the second-highest office in the land before his misdeeds
caught up with him. His downfall came on the day in October 1973, when
he entered a federal courtroom and pleaded no contest to a watered-down
charge of income-tax evasion.
It was a face-saving deal that allowed Agnew to avoid a trial and almost
certain conviction for allegedly accepting kickbacks as a Maryland county
executive and governor - and as vice president of the United States.
He left the White House in shame, escaping a felony conviction by the
skin of his teeth. The historical importance of that moment wasn'tlost on the
judge who presided in his case. Agnew's no col'lfl;st plea, Judge Walter Hoffman said, was "the full equivalent of a plea of gllilty."
Guilty of taking kickbacks.
Guilty of income-tax evasion.
Guilty of violating the trust of the voters who put him in office.
But within hours of the former vice president's death Tuesday, Agnew's
sullied reputation was being shined up. "He served Maryland well. He
served President Nixon well," said fellow Republican and former Maryland
congresswoman Helen Delich Bentley.
"And the misfortunes that came his way should be allowed to die with

him," she said with a straight face.
I don't think so.
Death is no special circumstance deserving of absolution for the unre- !
pentant among us. Spiro Agnew owed an apology to the people of Baltimore
County, the citizens of Maryland, the nation. But inStead of confessing his
misdeeds, he walked out of the courtroom to a throng of waiting reporters ·
and "categorically and flatly" denied the wrongdoing that ended his politi- "
cal c~eer. Agnew never backed away from his claim of innocence .,.- a ·
claim he pressed in the court of public opinion, but not in a criminal court- .. ,
room.
For Agnew, time has healed some of his wounds. The portrait of the for- "
mer governor that was dispatched to a basement storage room following his
no contest plea was dusted off last year and re-hung in a place of honor in
the Maryland statehouse. Three mo)\lhs later the Republican-controlled "
Congress placed a marble bust of the fallen vice president in the Capitol. ·: '
No doubt about .it, Ag¢\v was oq the niend when acute leukemia took his .
life in a hospital ju'Skrutside the Maryland resort town of Ocean City. And ·.·
now that he is gone, his surrogates hope to convince us the good that Agnew •
did outweighs the bad.
TI_I.IIY •re wrong.
··
Agnew was a political opportunist who fliP" flopped across the ideologi- "'
cal spectrum when it was to his advantage. He won the Maryland governor- ·_·
ship in 1966 by campaigning as a social moderate after a conservative ' ·
Democrat won his party's nomination. Large numbers of liberals - blacks · ·
and whites - crossed party lines to help elect him.

Echoes of past
trial revfJrberate
in O.J. civil case
By LINDA DEUTSCH
AP Special Correspondent
SANTA MONICA, Calif.
Defense attorneys in O.J. Simpson's
civil wrongful-death trial are accusing the plaintiffs of trying to exclude
blacks from the jury, bringing back
the issue. of [ace that surfaced in the
football star'~ criminal trial.
Simpson attorney Robert Baker,
trying to keep a black woman from
being excused, noted Friday that the
plaintiffs had challenged four black
prospective jurors for bias, saying
they could not be fair.
Superior Court Judge Hiroshi
Fujisaki didn't respond to the comment, but said he was " gre&lt;ttly troubled" by the woman's strong bias in
Simpson's favor and excused her
from the panel.
The woman had declared she
believed Simpson was not the killer
of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman.
She condemned police detective
Mark Fuhrman as " an egotistical,
opportunistic cop" and said she
believed blood was transported
improperly by another detective in
the case.
At one point she said she could be
impartial. but plaintiff's attorney
Daniel Pel(ocelli said he would be
placed in the position of having io
change her opinion.
"This person has weighed the evidence already," said Petrocelli, auorney for Goldman's family.
The lawsuit by the victims' families seeks to hold Simpson liable for
the 1994 killings of hi~ ex-wife and
Goldman. Simpson was acquitted
last year of murder in a criminal tri al.
Ironically, Baker challenged white
panelists with the same consistency
that Petrocelli sought dismissal of the
blacks.
The judge didn't immediately
address the defense claim about chal-

Journal may prove to be backbone
of case against Unabomber suspect
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) For nearly 20 years, prosecutors say,
a reclusive fanner math professor sat
in his remote Montana cabin and
penned entries in a long, detailed
diary that described each and every
one of the 16 bombings committed
by the Unabomber.
,
" I mailed that bomb" and "I sent
that bomb" are entries the government plans to use to convict
Thendore Kaczynski of sending mail
bombs to people around the country
since the 1970s, Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Cleary said Friday.
"11rese documents are the backbone of the government's case."
Cleary said during a hearing in U.S.
District Court to set a trial date.
Kaczynski, 54, was not present.
U.S. District Judge Garland Burrell approved a defense request to
delay setting ~ trial date until late
November, after attorneys said the
defense needs more time to develop

Test residue complicates
hunt for cause of jet blast
SMITHTOWN, N.Y. (AP)- The
revelation that TWA Flight 800 was
used to train bomb-sniffing dogs a
month before the airliner went down
could explain traces of explosive
residue found on the plane, making it
harder to prove that a bomb destroyed
the aircraft, a source said.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation said Fnday that the Boeing 747
jumbo Je( was used in June to train
bomb-sniffing dogs, and government
officials said the explosives in those
exercises could atcount·for the traces
of chemical residue found on recovered wreckage.
"This discovery would definitely
hurt any attempt to build a circumstantial case of a bomb destroying the
aircraft," a source close to the investigation told The Associated Press.
"Now we would definitely need pitting or blast damage to prove there
was a bomb placed on board."
Investigators have been stymied
for two months in determining what
caused the jet to plunge into the
Atlantic Ocean July 17, killing all
230 peo ple on board.
Initial speculation focused on terrori sm. But the tiny traces of chemical explosives were the only major
evidence recovered to support the
theory that a bomb caused the crash,
despite recovery of the plane 's cockpit, black boxes. its four engines and
cargo bms.
A Federal Aviation Administration

official said FAA investigators found
records late Thursday showing the
plane was used on June 10 for testing dogs on their bomb-detection
abi lity. Officials began looking for
the match about a month ago.
" It was a long tedious process of
matching FAA and TWA records,"
said the official, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
The FAA told the FBI about the
discovery immediately after learning
of it, officials said.
During the training exercise in St.
Louis, test packages containing
explosive chemicals were placed
aboard the jet, then removed from the
aircraft before the plane took off,
another source close to the investigation told the AP.
The assortment of high explosives
used may have included PETN, nitroglycerine and RDX, the source said.
Officials said this could explain the
trace residues of PETN and RDX
previously found on wreckage from
TWA Flight 800.
"We still don't know whether we
have a match" between the explosive
residue and the bombs used in the
training exercise, one official said.
On Friday, FBI Assistant Director
James Kallstrom, annoyed by reports
that the probe ,was now focused on
mechanical failure, said the possibil ity of a bomb or a missile attack
remained very much alive.

GALLIPOLIS - Where the Baltic Sea fonns an arin of the
Gulf of Bothnia between Sweden and Finland; there, toward
the east is the Gulf of Finland, guarded by two capitols for
centuries: Helsinki, the capitol of Finland in the north and
Tallinn, the capitol of Estonia on the south shores of the gulf.
On the very bottom of this Gulf of Finland is the Russian
city of St. Petersburg on the Neva River; landlocked if the gulf is
frozen in the wintertime. That is the very
reason why Estotlia has
always been a valued
property. The west side
of Estonia is navigable.
There were Russian Tsars who called Estonia the window
to Europe and that is why during the Stalin regime of terror,
thousands and thousands of Estonians were tmnsported to
Siberia and more thousands killed in the prison camps- their
only crime was being an Estonian.
The percentage of Estonians in Estonia was forcefully
changed by settling Russians and Ukranians in Estonia, but
the language, culture and character of an Estonian reaches
deep into history .
I, as an Estonian, was taught a lesson by an Estonian
Lutheran Bishop who, in the early I 950s, was nearly 80 years
old. He had escaped from the Communists and had settled as
a refugee in Sweden. Then, when the displaced persons from
Germany were settled in different countries, the Lutheran
Church of America had sponsored my husband and me to set-

In Estonia, the birds are a very important part of our gardening. A garden without birds is barren and is likely to be overrun with the bugs that
birds would devour during their nesting period.
Estonia is as far nonh as southern Alaska, and is a favorite nesting place
for many, many migrant birds. But, When autumn comes, it is the beginning of gloomy, rainy, blustery weather, and that is when the large birds
that had nested in Estonia leave to migrate to winter homes in the south .
These were the last to migrate.

Warren Local outlasts GAHS 36-32

,

River Valley rallies to claim 22-13 victory over Athens.

By G. SPENCER OSBORNE
Times-Sentinel Staff
THE PLAINS- River Valley' s
varstty football team, behind 13-0 at
halftime, racked up 234 rushing
yards in the seco nd half that
propelled the Raiders to a 22- 13 win
over Athens in the Bulldogs '
homecoming game.
The contest was significant in the
following ways:
• The decision gave the Raiders
their first win of the year.
• It marked the first contest of the
1996 campaign in which the Raiders
held an opponent to fewer than I00
yards rushing and/or passing.
• It marked the first game of the
year in which the Raiders shut ou1
an opponent after halftime.
• It insured victory for the
visiting team for the third straight
year.
• It was only their second
homecoming victory in II such
affairs in their 4 1/2-year history.
River Valley's first-half woes
can be traced partly to its failure to
cross midfield. Athens· gettmg Matt
Weaver to return Jerry Brammer's
punt 77 yards for a touchdown in
the first quarter's last minute and
adding two second-quarter field
goals by senior Andy Perry didn't
help tlte Raiders' cause.
However, the seeds of the
Raiders' victory were sewn in the
first 24 minutes. How?
The Bulldogs never scored from
scrimmage, even in their first two
possessions. The first saw them get
the ball to the Raiders' five-yard
line, but senior tailback Matt

The Padres and Dodgers are back
to where they've been most of the
season - thisclose.
A sellout crowd of 51,217 packed
Jack Murphy Stadium on Friday
night for the latest NL West show·
down between the teams, a 4-2 victory by San Diego that pulled the
Padres back within one-half game of
Los Angeles.
The two teams will play five
more games this season to decide the
division title. Ne~t weekend's threegame series in Los Angeles already
is sold out.

Steve Finley homered twice and
Ken Caminiti tied a team record with
his 38th home run for San Diego.
which opened a one-game lead over
Montreal in wild-card race.
Joey Hamilton (15-8) pitched 7
2/3 strong innings, allowing two runs
and three hits with nine strikeouts
and five walks.
"This was the biggest game of
my career so far," Hamilton said.
"And I gave it everything I got."
Hamilton got out of a )lasesloaded jam in the seventh wheq he
struck out pinch-hitter Dave Clark,
but he gave up Mike Piazza's RBI
~roundout in the eighth that made it

Karros, Trevor Hoffman struck out
Raul Mondesi on three straight

Hoffman got his 38th save, and
Caminiti gave him some breathing

eighth off Mark Guthrie, tying the
San Diego record Nate Colbert set in
1970 and matched two years later.
San Diego catcher Brian Johnson,

upon us, but this year it's in South Bend. I'm get·
ting ready to go to the game . I have already dusted
off my Irish apparel. It will be a trip to remember.
Touchdown Jesus, here we come I
. I have asked my good friend, Buckeye fan Jake Bapst, to accompany me
on this trip. He graciously accepted my invitation. It entailed some sacrifice.
It meant giving up a trip to
Beaver, Ohio, to see his dad. H1s
father, wanting to protect hiS
son from a painful decision,
offered to go in his place. It was
a noble gesture on his father 's
behalf.
We will he in Section 20,
Row 17. The face value of those
tickets are $32; however, local
Buckeye and Irish fans have
Qffered me substantially more for them. I don't know what I would do with
a log cabin in the woods, and I really don't need a used pickup.
· If there is this much interest in playing Notre Dame, John Cooper should
schedule the Irish on a yearly basis. Playing Rice is fun, but only until the
1!:-ickoff. Getting out of the park.ing lot was more difficult than running
against Rice's defense.
: It would be wonderful if Notre Dame would join the Big Ten. That won't
happen because the Irish make too much money being 1rtdependent. You
can't say that about any other team . There is a list qf teams who want to add
the Irish to their schedule.
Regardless of your rivalries, Notre Dame automatically becomes the new
game of the year when they are added to your schedule. Look at Columbus
hut fall when they arrived! When Notre Dame dropped Miam1 of Florida
from their schedule, the 'canes were upset. Notre Dame was their big game
o( the year. Outside of Florida State, Notre Dame was the only other game
(o be sold out. Fans in south Florida were outraged. East Carolina just does~ 1t create the same excitement.
1
College football Is big business, and no school is as big financially as the
it;sh. Why do you think they make New Year's Day bowl games with
inediocre teams and records? The bowl alliance made sure Notre Dame was
litb!uded in the mix. Could you imagine an undefeated Irish team not play·
!rig for the national championship? It has happened to West Virginia, but
~her to Notre Dame.
•~ This is not fair, but college football is not as equitable or ethical as they
v.;uld have us believe. Regardless, as fan mterest in the Irish game tllus~tes, we really don't mind.
• ~ We love football and no team is as storied as Notre Dame. Last year's
Bhckeye victory reinforced the belief that the year would be special for Ohio
$(ate. Fan and player confidence soared following their convincing perfor6mnce. Yes, the Bucks could beat Nebraska! Strange, but victories over few
Qiher teams get such a reaction. Be honest, wouldn't a Buckeye victory this
fCar have the same effect?

By beating Wirt County 20-0,

Eastern tallies first win of campaign
By SCOTT WOLFE
T-S Correspondent

EAST MEIGS - "Katie bar the
door!" That was the battle cry heard
echoing through East Shade
Stadium Friday night, as the Eastern
Eagles crashed through the flood
gates and washed away perennial
West Virginia football power Wirt
Coun1y 20-0 in a non-league
contest.
Eastern (1 ·3) came through in a
big way, while Wirt County, 1-3 and
also in a rebuilding year heads back
~orne to the drawing board:
Eastern's Adam McDaniel. a
senior running back, led the charge
with 18 carries for 170 yards and a
touchdown unofficially . McDaniel's
effort was highlighted by good
Eastern blocking up front and great
second and third efforts that added
to his accumulative effort.
McDaniel was also a defensive
standout with two quarterback sacks
and added two extra-point kicks.
Eastern coach Casey Coffey was
ecstatic after the win, saying, "This
was a big win for us tonight. We
needed a victory and the kids rose to
the occasion. We had a lot more
consistency tonight and the way we
played should build our confidence
going into the league schedule and
next week's game at Buffalo."
Another bright spot in Eastern's
field of dreams was Jeremy
Calaway , who had 19 tackle s to
boost his streak of ten or more
tackles to four games. Calaway also
caught a 35-yard touchdown pass
from Steve Durst for Eastern's first
score.
That score came at the 8:09 mark
in the second quarter after Eastern
had a first and goal from the two
yard line. Penalties rocked the
Eastern drive back to the 35, setting
a fourth and goal from the 35.
Calaway ran a slant across the
middle for what appeared to be a
short gainer, but the senior receiver
broke three tackles in the short
defensive backfield and scrambled
down the sideline for Eastern's first
score, 7-0, after McDaniel added the
EP kick.
With 3:29 left in the half,
McDaniel broke a 54-yard run down
the sideline and won the footrace to
the end zone. Eastern completed the
pass for the extras (Durst to Adam
Sanders), but it came up shon and
the score stood 13-0.
Eastern played great defense
overall as the Tigers never seriously
threatened to score. Until late in th~
third quarter, the Tigers did not have
a second half first down. Part of the
EHS defensive success came as a
result of its five qu.arterback sacks.
McDaniel was in on two, while Abe
Rach also was in on two . Lamar
Lyons rung up a big tackle, while
Chris Buchanan had a solo sack.
Shawn Long and Billy Francis
teamed up for another. The end
result was a negative 29 yards
rushing for quarterback Tommy

Ferrebee.
With 2:09 left in the third
quarter, Steve Durst, faced with
founh and long situation hit Adam
Sanders on a slant pass and Sanders
raced down the sideline 45 yards for
the score. McDaniel added the EP
kick and Eastern led 20.0.
Eastern's young players,
especially J.T. White and freshman
Justin Delacruz, got some playing
time in the last quarter and both
looked sharp. Delacruz rushed three
times for 23 yards and gained a first
down .
Colley noted, "I felt our overall
team play and the play of our line
was a crucial factor in the game.
When we had our backs to the wall ,
the kids came up with the big play. "
Much of the night, Eastern's line
(Billy Francis, Nate Radford, Billy
Schultz, Jeremy Calaway, Abe Rach
and Josh Hager ) was awesome,
blasting holes so large in the Wirt
defense that McDaniel's could have
driven a Mack truck through
unscathed . Other times, when Win's
linebackers would blitz, McDaniel
himself simply bowled right over
whatever was in his way.
The Eastern offense netted 329
total yards, 211 on the ground and
114 in the air. Quarterback Stevie
Durst, fresh off the disabled li st,
returned in a big way by completing
four of nine passes for 114 yards
and two touchdown passes. Durst
also tough-nosed several big gainers
off the scramble to keep a couple
eventual scoring dnves alive.
Sophomore J .T. White completed
one pass for four yards (1·2).
Defensively, Calaway had 19
tackles and a fumble recovery while
Pat Aeiker had an interception .
Calaway. Sanders and Aeiker led
the receiving corps with 61, 45 and
nine yards, respectively.
Win's Kris Villers had a great
rushing night with 119 yards on 27
carries. Jason Miller caught four
passes for 53 yards .
This week: Eastern will play at
Buffalo-Putnam Friday.

LOGAN - The Point Pleasant
Big Blac ks amassed some J50 yards
of total offense. including 301 rushmg en r,1ute to a 25- II victory over
the Logan Chieftains Friday night.
The '"n marked the first for the
Btg Blad s in the Southeastern Ohio
Athletic League and also allowed
them I&lt;' ratsc their record to 2- 1. the
first time thty have been over the
MY! marl: ''nee 199 J.
"I'm ven happy f&lt;&gt;r the the kids ,"
'"'d PPHS he.ad coach Steve Safford .
"We worked very hard in practice the
last two weeks and that hard work
paid off tonight. We were ready, both
mentally and phySically, (and) we
had a lot of good individual efforts.
hut this wa' a total tc.am victory."
Pomt's defense .gave up a touchdoWil to the Chieftans on their initial
possession of the game, but then shut
them out until the hosts kicked' a
field goal on the first play of the
fourth quarter. A second quarter goal

line stand highlighted that fine
dcfcnst vc effort by the locals. After
holding the Chicftans on downs in
their second possession . the Blacks
took over. but were forced to punt.
Logan took over at their own 36
and proceeded to march down field:
eventuall y getting a forst and goal
from the Point five-yard line. Clint
Crago picked up a yard orr first down
and then Ryan Butcher took the ball
inside the one with a three and a half
yard gain .
Butcher tried the left side of the
Poi nt defense on the third down play,
but the Point charges were up to the
task. stopping the tailback with no
gain. Logan was set up to try again
on fourth down but an illegal procedure penalty put the ball back to the
SIX.

The hosts decided to try a lleld
goal, but the attempt was no good
and the Blacks took over on their
own twen ty.
Point's offe nse took full advantage of the situation. as they put

together an 80-yard, 10-play drive
culminating in an 11 -yard touchdown pass from Brent Rollins to
Jeremy Rickard . Dusty Higginbotham added the two-point conversion
and the Blacks led 11 -8.
Key plays in the drive were an I 1yard gainer by Rickard on a third
down play and an 11 -yard pass play
from Rollins to Michael Ray Ander-

Roger Stevens, Trav is Price, Mike
Jeffers, Rob Wilson, Darren Plants
and Mike Anderson. Grady capped
the impressive drive with a one-yard
plunge. The ex tra point attempt was
no good, however, and the score
remained 17-8.
An exchange of punts gave the
Chieftan s exce llent field position at
the Point 28 and they took advantage, mov ing the ball to the Point 12.
But the Big Black defense tightened
and Logan was forced to try another fi eld goal. This one was good and
the lead was cut to 17-11.
Point Pleasant put the game out of
reach with another touchdown late in
the final quarter.
After forcing a punt, the Blacks
took over at their own 10-yard line
with 7:30 left. Six minutes later,
Jeremy Buskirk swept the left side
for a 12-yard touchdown run and
Rickard's extra point run set the final
score at 25- 11 . That final Point drive was anything but conventional,
featuring a couple of penalties

son.

The go-ahead touchdown came
with just 38 seconds left in the half.
Point kept the momentum with
another score on their initial possession of the second half.
Starting at their own 49, the Big
Blacks needed only I0 plays to reach
paydirt. Excellent running by the
entire back fi eld, including Higginbotham, Rollin s, B.J. Grady and
Jeremy Buskirk highlighted the drive.
Also drawing praise from the
coaching staff was the offensive line.
That group created a lot of holes for
the running backs. They include

against Point that resulted in a first
and 30 situation.
But the locals maintained their
poise and eventually put the ball in
the end zone. Nice running by Grady
and Rollins and another Rollins-toAnderson completion kept the drive
going.
Logan had one more chance, but
Jamie "Kramer" Buskirk came up
with another interception, his fourth
of the season.
Defensively, the Big Blacks had
many stars, but none shone brighter
than Steve Thomas. The senior linebacker was all over the field, amassing 16tackles, including seven solos.
Rob Wilson also played well
with two solo tackles and nine
assists. Jeremy Buskirk had three
solos and an assist while brother
Jamie had a solo tackle and a couple
of ass ists to go along with his interception.
"Right now we arc brimming
with confidence and these guys are

evcnm~nple overtime by a shm
21 -20 ~~;Hm before alarge gathering at the Jackson County school.

The While Falcons stunned the
Ravenswood crowd with a couragcous second half showing that carried over into thet~ee extra periods
before an offi ctal s call snatched

what appeared to be a shocking Bend
Area tnumph mto an unbehevable
defeat.
Wahama went for a two point
conversion and the win following a
Dale John son four yard touchdown
run in the third overtime. On the
~oint-after try, scrambling Wahama

quarterback Dav1d Mitchell connected with Mike Marshall m the
back of the end zone for what ,
appeared to be the winning points,
but an official ruled that Marshall
had stepped out of bounds before
coming back onto the playing field
to deprive Wahama of the upset vic-

tory.
But wall , that's not all , the White
Falcons also seemed to earn the winning points on two other occasions
midway through the final period, but
once again an official' s call nullified
what would have given the White
Falcons the win .

ASHTON, W.Va. -Southern Hback Jamie Evans scored on two
touchdown passes in the first half to
stake the Tornadoes to a 13-0 halftime lead on their way to a 27-8 win
at Hannan Friday night.
Hannan's star running back, Jason
Wray sustained a com::ussiun early in
the second half and was later taken
to the hospital for precautionary
reasons. Outside linebacker John
Beaver was also taken to the hospital for a possible turn ligam,ent in his
left knee.
Hannan's offense had five
turnovers on the night: three fumble s
and two interceptions.
Jesse Maynard, the Tornadoes'
senior quarterback, threw for four
touchdowns before Hannan scored
with four mmutcs left in the game on
Joe Kimble's 17-yard touchdown
run .
With 2: 15 to go in the first quarter, Hannan's defense had just forced
a fourth-down situation when Josh
Cordell sac ked Maynard twi ce in
three plays. But on fourth down and
24 from Hannan's 32-yard line, Maynard found a wide open Evans who
romped into the end zone for Southem's first'scorc.
·
Just minutes later, shortl y after

lified the go-ahead point. Following
a five yard penalty assessment
against Wahama, Johnson agatn
k.icked the pigskin through the goal
posts for a second time, but once
again an official's call voided the pay
as Ravenswood was called for a five
yard offside penalty. On his third
attempt, Johnson's kick hit the
upright and bounded away and
instead of leading by a point, the
score was deadlocked at 14-14 with
6:02 remaining.
Neither team scored in the first
two
extra
periods
before
Ravenswood got into the end zone
on a five yard run with Jeremy
Nester k.icking what proved to be the
game winning point-after. Wahama,
on its third possession in overtime,
scored on a Johnson four yard burst
with the weird ending following th~
senior running back's TD gallop.
"I really can't say what I'm thinking," a dejected Cromley said fol lowing the contest. "These kids put
forth a super effort. They faced so
many misfortunes tonight but fought
them off and kept right on going.
They {Ravenswood) were so much

bigger that we were yet we kept battling right to the end and to have it
end the way it did. I still can't believe
it.
Wahama fell i;!ehind early as the
Red Devils scored on their first possession after marching 65 yards in 12
plays. Jason Romeo capped off the
series with a fourth down one yard
run with Nester's k.ick making it 7-0
with 6:02 remaining in the opening
quarter.
Ravenswood made it 14-0 in the
second period when a low snap from
center on a fourth down punt resulted in the kick being blocked with
Aaron Walters scooping up the loose
pigskin and returning it 12 yards for
the Red Devils' second score of the
night.
Wahama regrouped at the intermission break and came out and took
the second half k.ickoff and drove the
ball right down the field. The Wlilt'•
Falcons went 86 yards in 21 p~s
and overcame four penalties while
eating up all by 26 seconds in the
third quarter. Johnson capped the dri·
ve with a one yard plunge. Mitchell
teamed with Johnson for the two
point conversion as Wahama cl~
II

to within six at 14-8.
Moments later, Johnson picked .
off a Red Devil pass and raced 76
yards to pay dirt to knot the score and
that is where things really started
going awry against the White Falcons. The point-after try failed leaving the contest tied at 14-14, which
is how it remained throughout the
conclusion of regulation play.
Johnson led Wahlllila on the
ground with 91 yards in 26 carries
while scoring three touchdowns and
a two-point conversion. Chris Roush
also had an impressive outing toting
the football for the White Falcons
with 38 second half yards in II carries. David Mitchell completed five
of 14 passes for47 yards with Kevin
Shields hauling in a clutch reception
for 23 yards to set up the Falcons
final score. Mike Marshall caught
three passes for 14 yards while
Johnson had one for 10 yards.
Ravenswood received a 92 yard
rushing outing from David Hood on
2S carries while Jason Romeo picked
up 83 yards in nine tries. 'lac Adk.ins
co,nected on two of eight aerials for
44,yards with Robbie Dean hauling
in both Red Devil completions.

Defensively, Chris Brinker was
simply outstanding to put it mildly
for Wahama. Brinker received stellar plays from teammates Steve Sigman, Mike Anderson and Tyson
Reitmire, while David Riggs, Tim
Jordan and T.R. Camp also had outstanding performances for the White
Falcons.
Wahama will take its 2-2 record
on the road again next week when
the Bend Area team travels to Southem while Ravenswood (3 -1) is at
home hosting Chapmanville.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) Here is the weekly fishing repon provided by the Division of Wildlife of
the Ohio Department of Natural
Resources:
Southeast
OHIO POWER AREA - This
recreation area in eastern Ohio has
many small ponds and lakes inhabited by largemouth bass, biuegills
and channel catfish. Early fail is a
good time to take any of these fish .
A free recreational user pennit is
required to fish, hunt and camp in
this area.
WILLS CREEK RESERVOIR
-Cast live bait rigs or use plastic
wonns when seeking largemouth
bass. Channel catfish may still be
caught during evening throughout
the fall. The tail water below the dam
provides some of the region's best
saugeye fishing November through
March.
Southwest
STILLWATER RIVER - Fish in
the deep pools and below riffies with
soft craws, hellgramiles or small

spinners when seeking smallmouth
bass. Traditional bait.&gt; can be used to
take channel catfish. The river also
has carp, suckers, rock bass, largemouth bass, bluegills and sunfish.
GRAND .LAKE ST. MARYS Night fishing remains productive for
anglers seeking bullhead and channel catfish. Trotline fishing for catfi sh is permitted in a restricted area.
Yellow perch can bq taken on min nows and spreaders, and provide
good ice fishing opportunities during
winter.

Central
DliER CREEK LAKE - The
rocky shorelines and · deep-water
points are good places to fi sh for
largemouth bass during fall. Use
plastic wonns, small spinners, crank
baits or minnows for best results.
Keeper bass must measure at least I2
inches. In winter, the tail water provides good saugeye fishing action.
KOKOSING RESERVOIR The deeper dropoffs along the old
creek channel are good places to fish
for largemouth bass. As the waters

cool. try fishing closer to the •boreline. Use spinners or plastic worms.
Morning and early evening hours are
the best times to fish .
Northwest
BRESLER RESERVOIR
Slowly drift a night crawler harness
near the bottom when seeking
walleyes. Use spreaders tipped with
minnows fished along the bottom to
take yellow perch. Early fall remains
a good time of year to fish for channel catfish near the'shoreline.
HARRISON LAKE - Use tra·
ditional baits such as chicken livers
and night crawlers fished along the
bottom at night when seeking chan- .
net and bullhead catfish. Larval baits
and red worms suspended beneath a
bobber can be used with success to
take bluegills.
Northeast
WEST BRANCH RESERVOIR
- The muskie population is rated
fair, but some of the largest fish may
measure up to 50 inches in length.
Trolling at depths of five to 10 feet
with large imitation baits seems to be

.
)
more
productive.
Use large sh'mers
when seeking striped or hybnd
stri~d bass.
·
MOSQUITO CREEK LAKE As the waters cool. try fishing for
walleyes during late evening from
the shoreline. Use small surface
plugs or crank baits for best results .
Minnows fished beneath a bobber
around submerged structures may
produce good crappie fishing action.
Northern pike are fairly abundant v
and sustained through natural reproduction.
Lake Erie
Fall is an excellent time to fish for
steelhead trout, walleyes, yellow
perch and smallmouth bass.
Walleyes are working their way
back into more shallow waters and
provide good night fishing action
from the island shorelines in October
through December. Perch action
remains good to excellent. The rocky
reefs and some of the central basin
break walls are the top spots for
smallmoulh bass fishing.

Bar-less zoos see climbing attendance
By L.M. COLUNS
DENVER (AP) - Can't afford to
·go to Africa? No problem - just
drop into the Denver Zoo's Primate
.Panorama.
Don't have time to visit the Pacific Northwest? Try the North Carolina Zoo's Nonh American Region
Exhibit.'
Gone are the days when a visit to
the zoo meant watching lethargic
animals sleep and pace in tile cages
behind steel bars.
Zoos across the country including the San Diego Zoo, the
Kansas City Zoo, the Baltimore Zoo
and the San Francisco Zoo - have
replaced metal and concrete with
grass, trees, bushes and pools to
replicate their animals' natural habitat.
The investment has paid off in
climbing attendance.
The American Zoo and Aquarium
Association reported that more than
116 million people visited AZAmember zoos and aquariums in
1994, and attendance in 1995
reached 120 million . The AZA represents almost every major zoological park, aquarium and wildlife park
in Nonh America.
Since the 1980s. when zoos began
their metamorphosis from animal
exhibitors to natural habitat and
conservation sanctuaries, more people have gone to zoos and aquariums
than to professional football , basketball and baseball games com·
bined, the AZA said.

The zoo of the '90s is a place
where birds fly freely , cats roam,
chimpanzees and orangutans swing
from trees and search for hidden
food, and th~ v,isitor feels a little fess
guilty about watching.
"I wouldn't go to zoos for years
because I considered them animal
prisons. II was not what I wanted my
children to see; animals are not supposed to live like that," said Sherri
McCutchen, 45 , as she watched pri·
mates at the Denver Zoo scampering
along tree branches and munching
leaves.
"I love the zoo now. I love the
conservation and education aspect,
so my kids can see animals they
would never see otherwise," she

added.
The trend began, said AZA
spokeswoman Jane Balantine,
"when zoos changed their priority
from entertainment and exhibition to
education, conservation and natural
habitat. "
The newest trend is immersing
visitors in the animals' environment.
" We bring the visitors into the world
of the animals they are viewing, to
educate them about the wildlife
within its habitat," Balan tine said.
She said many zoos either are
opening new natural habitat exhibits
and wildlife conservation education
centers or refurbishing their old
exhibits. At least 30 new exhibits
opened in 1996.
The animals eat beuer, too, and
companies such as GrubCo. HMS

associate athletic director Sharon
Vannoy, River Valley High School
does not have a true junior high cross
country program. However, runners
from the grade schools that feed their
graduates into RVHS - Bidwell·
Porter Elementary, Kyger Creek
Middle School and Vinton Elementary - arc allowed to compete
under the River Valley banner.

Zoo Diets Inc. and Flamingo Fare
have sprung up to supply food ranging from the nutritious to the exotiC.
Flamingoes are fed foods containing
a high level of beta carotene, which
helps them maintain their rosy pink
color, and monkeys munch on biscuits made with bran.
The trend also has created a market for companies specializing in zoo
design and firms that provide graph·
ics for wetlands, rain forests and
savannah exhibits.

Sports deadlines
The Gallipolis Daily Tribune,
Th e Dally Sentinel and the Sunday
Times-Seminel value the contribu·
lions their readers make to the sports
sections of these papers, and they
will continue to be published.
However, certain deadlines for
submissions will be observed.
The deadline for submissions of
local baseball- and softball-related
photos and related articles, from Thall to the majors, as well as other
spring and summer sports, is the day
of the last game of the World Series.
The deadline for photos and relat·
ed articles for football and other fall
sports is the Saturday before the
Super Bowl.
The deadline for photos and related articles for basketball (summer
basketball and related camps fall
under the summer sports deadline)
and other winter spons is the last day
of the NBA finals .
These deadlines are in place to
allow contributors the time they
need to acquire their photos from the
photography studio/developer of
choice and to !Jive the staffs the
chance to publish these items in the
appropriate season for those sports.

"No longer do the people who
design zoo exhibits also design the
local city pool," Denver Zoo spokes·
woman Angela Baier said.
Zookeeping has become a field
demanding special credentials, too.
Most zookeepers hold master's
degrees and specialize in fields such
as biodiversity conservation. horticulture, animal dentistry, wildlife
obstetrics, exotic animal veterinary
science and biology.
The Denver Zoo, a leader in nat·
ural habitat exhibits since it built the,
first bar-less exhibit in 1918, Bear
Mountain, has poured more than $30
million into new exhibits since 1986
- and doubled its attendance to 2
million visitors per year. Revenues
have risen in the past decade from $2
million annually to $4.78 million last
year.
After the North Carolina Zoo
opened its $32 million, 200-acre
North American Region Exhibit, its
attendance nearly doubled to I mil·
lion in 199.

efforts of the officers could quiet

The Captain finally ordered the
boat to land near Crown City. Here
an attempt was made to put the three
off the boat. During the scuffie one
of the Franklins was knocked into
the water. He pulled one of the boat's
clerks in with him. It was then that
Franklin shot the clerk in the arm
with a pistol. Franklin's second shot
was aimed at the clerk's head, but
fortunately for him someone from
the boat threw a metal canister at
Franklin which caused the bullet to
go off in the river. The clerk and
other boat. officers under the cover
of fire from the captain climbed on
.the boa~ and the Lizzie backed out
into the water. The three "despera·
does" ran along the bank firing at It
for several yards.
It was later discovered that Lin·
coin Franklin was the_n the aeting
marshall in Ownbersburg.

In the 1880s the landing at Crown
'City was a busy place. In the IS
years following the Civil War the
village had gone from being called
"Hell's Half Acre" to being the sec·
ond biggest shipping point in .Gallia
County, having supplantc;d Cheshire and
Chambersburg.
Nearly 300,000
pounds of tobacco
went through the
Crown City wharf as
well as thousands of
·dollars worth of lumber, locust tim.ber, bark, staves and farm products.
;Several boats stopped at Crown

~enerllly speaking. people tend to trav~l great
dislar\ce• to ,visit museums to study art and htstory,
but one needs only to travel to the nearest cemetery
where existing art works wait to be discovered.
.
Old burial grounds hold a unique expression of art
that has received scant recognition by art historians
and has gone relatively unnoticed by the public. This
unheralded wealth of material found in the carved
designs on early tombstones stand not only as monu·
ments til the individuality of the deceased but also as
testimonials to the innate sense of design and crafts·
mans hip of the stonecutters who produced them.
Very old sandstone markers often reflect an attitude
toward death which has changed considerably from
those of the present generation. To the pioneers who
suffered the rigors of a severe climate, famines and
epidemics, death was a fearsome prospect. It is not
surprising to see carved on their stones images of the
grim reaper snuffing out the candle of life qr holloweyed skulls beckoning to the passerby with the ~pular epitaph:
·
"So once was I;
As I am now
So you must be
So prepare for death
And follow me."
Only the world beyond the grave held the promise
of a more comfortable life. Thus stone borders were
carved with motifs symbolizing heavenly rewards:
figs and pomegranates denoted prosperity and happiness, the rope expressed eternity, the rising sun was a
symbol of the soul's resurrection. In the age when

By DOROTHY SAYRE
Before and after our tW()onight cruis~ to
the Bahamas, George and I played tourist in
Orlando, Cocoa Bea;ch and Daytona BCIII)h,
Florida. We both preferred the two bCIII)h
areas to Orlando, because of a lesser population. I found all places a huge ·improvement
over my previous visits to Miami and Ft.
Lauderdale.
In Orlando, we visited
as many tourist attractions
as possible to map out an·
upcoming vacation with
daughter Holly and grand-'
son Jim, 6. While we didn't .
go to Walt Disney World's
Magic Kingdom, we did
go to Epcot Center. Also,
as we had visited other Sea
. Worlds and Marine Lands, we slcipped Orlan·
do's Sea World. We did do a repeat of a-Universal Studios lot by going to the one in
Orlando, and we enjoyed it immensely.
At Epcot Center, a poll taker at the gate
infonned us the most popular rides were in
the World Showcase: Mexico and Norway. As
we had arrived shortly after the gates opened,
she said the lines wouldn't be too long yet. We
did have waits, but nothing like the later lines
we observed. The boat rides and narration
were superb; the entire grounds were immaculate, and lovely flowers bloomed every·
where. After such a cold Ohio winter, we truly
enjoyed the beauty and colorful splash of the
flowers. While admiring the orchid gardens, a
host saw our interest and gave us a mini-guid·
ed tour of many orchids. One orchid smelled
exacdy like chocolate; the odor was discernible. within a foot or two. We were shown
the vanilla-producing orchid, and a tree called
a "Velcro" tree . The tree had large spines protruding all up and down its trunk and the
guide said, "Everything sticks to it." We saw
some wonderful international entertainment
including jugglers, dancers, and acrobats
from the former USSR. Upon asking, I found
out they stay six months to a year in the US
and then arc replaced by other cou.ntrymen.
Our favorite show, however, was "Honey, I
Shrunk the Audience ." It was a delightful
journey into 3·D bizarreness; complete with
the floor shalcing and technological surprises.
As an "I Love Lucy" fan, I thoroughly
enjoyed Universal Studio's display of mem()o
rabilia and trivia quizzes featuring Lucille
Ball. We rode in a boat in the "Jaw's" pool;
and took backstage tours of "Murder, She
Wrote," and the Hitchcock 'Theater. The tours
completely entertained us.
Cocoa Beach found us swimming in the
surf and working on a tan. En route to Day·
tona Beach, we stopped by the . Kennedy
Space Center for an txtremely worthwhile
bus tour.. Otheri' aboard the scenicruiser bus
''oohed and ahhed" over the shuttles, buildings and · bunkers, while I enjoyed the
wildlife. I had.no idea the space center was on
a huge wildlife preserve. We observed alligators lazing in the sun and alllcinds of wonderful waterfowl. The grass was green and the
flowers were in bloom; it was beautiful . I'd
enjoy returning ....
Daytona Beach was a wonderful , lazy city
to enjoy. The pace was much slower than
Orlando. While the restaurants weren't as varied as we had found in Orlando, we did discover some good seafood. I tend to ask locals
where their favorite restaurants arc, and usu·
ally we are not disappointed. George and I
walked for miles on the beach (dodging cars
sometimes, as cars arc permitted on the Day·
tona Beach shores during the daylight), and
we swam once or twice a day in the ocean.
My bravery for surf swimming was buoyed
by the fact they had not had a shark attack
there in 12 years. I didn't dwell on the fact that
possibly the timing was right for another
shark to play "Jaws."
While in Daytona Beach, we took a boat
ride on "A Tiny Cruise Line," on the Halifax
River. The boat trip was a tour of the homes
along the waterway. Again, I enjoyed the
waterfowl and marine animals more than the
tour's main focus . However, some houses displayed on shore were palatial and carried an
old southern theme; we both came away
thinlcing the tour was quite splendid.
When the winters are long and cold, such

If you're one of those people who
.pever have a headache, color yourself lucky. Those who do experience
eeadaches on a regular basis really
go through a lot of pain.
: For the latter group there is help
on the way.
.
The National Institutes of Health
~nd Ohio University Headache
lfreatment and Research Project are
~ringing together physicians and
psychologists to study the effective- :
)less of medication and stress man·
lagement in the reduction of tension
)leadaches, also called stress
)leadaches.
; If you qualify, you can be a pan
of the program and it is free of
charge. Wouldn't it be great to rid
yourself
of those
horrible
headaches?
: The Athens program combines
the efforts of primary researcher, Dr.
J(en Holroyd, an Athens psycholo~ist, and Ohio University professor,
and neurologists, Frank O'Donnell,
ronner director of the Ohio State
University headache clinic, and
Gary Cordingley of the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine.
. One of the main goals of the project is to determine whether drug .
treatment alone, stress management
alone or the combination of the two
provides the most effective results
for chronic tension headache sufferers. Medications used in the study
are not experimental drugs .
Not every type of headache sufferer will benefit from the available
ireatmeJlts. So, potential participants
will begin their experience with a
brief telephone screening to determine ·if they are appropriate for the
project. If the patients seem appropriate, they will attend a more
lengthy diagnostic interview at the
clinic at which time they will sec
both a clinician and a neurologist.
Yop didn't get that headache
ov.erntght so it won't disappear
overnight. The Athens project will
be a 15-month study and although
that sounds· like a large investment
of time, participants only visit the
clinic in Athens eight times, the firsI
three of which occur in the first three
months. Lengths of each visit vary
depending on which treatments the
participant is receiving.
And how do you get involved ?
Merely telephone 593-1060 in
Athens and a shon telephone interview will disclose if you are a candidate for further study in the program.

albums. organizers announced Friday.
"I'm really pleased that this rescheduling, in conjunction with there-release of

They deem~d U.S. Ambassador Jean Kennedy Smith a "pseudo-actress"
for her walk-on role and said the film is "soaked in Irish Republicanism."
The movie. directed by Neil Jordan, i§ a biography of the Irish Republican guerrilla leader who was assassinated in 1922 by Irishmen opposed to

Protestant politicians already distrust Kennedy Smith for her role in

' Evergreen Leaf Drop -A Natural
evergreen may provide green color
all year long, but the individual needles don't live forever. Conifers periodically shed their oldest needles
while retaining some foliage year
round. Evergreen needles have varying life spans, depending on the
species. Arborvitae and pines retain
needles for two seasons, while
spruces needles will remain on the
trees for 3 to I 0 years.
Some species of evergreens have
.more noticeable leaf drop than others.
In the fall, arborvitae and white
pines drop their two year old needles
all at once, alarming some gardeners
who believe their tree has a disease

of yews will tum yellow and drop in
late spring or early summer. Rhododenilrons, broad-leaf evergreens, drop

Many farmers didn't get into their

Meanwhile, hay cuttings continue
to lag behind in Ohio. The USDA
reported that as of August 25, farmers had completed almost all second
alfalfa cuttings and about one-third of
third cuttings. Half of the third cuttings are usually done by then. As for
other types of hay, the USDA reported that farmers were closing in on
finishing their second cuttings by late
August. Farmers had about 17 percent of their third cuttings complete,
when usually they have about onefourth completed by then, USDA
reported. Ohio and Indiana alfalfa
yields are down by about one-third

'Farm to Fork'

Program for
cow-calf
oroducers
A;GALLIPOLIS
JENNIFER BYRNES
- In the cow-calf
business, producers traditionally sell
their calf crop as feeder calves. As a
res~tll, they do not have the opponunity to see how their cattle perfonn
in a feed lot situation, nor do they
receive any carcass data on the animals. Therefore, they may not the
know the final outcome of their
genetic decisions. The answer for
curious producers may be a current
program called "Farm to Fork." 'The
program is designed to provide these
producers with feed lot performance
data and carcass data from their animals. Access to this infonnation
could provide valuable input to their
breeding management programs.
Calves entered into the program
will go to the panicipating feed lot,
and then the producers will be provided with infonnation such as: on
test, intennediate, and offtest weights
and frame scores, average daily gain,
hot carcass weight, quality grade,
yield grade, rib eye area, KPH fat fat
thickness, marbling, carcass price,
feed consumption, feed cost, total
cost, and profit and loss to the cattle
owner. Cattle will go to a feed lot
near Springfii:ld, Ohio and should
weigh between 500 and 700 pounds
by the November delivery date .
Health and management practices
must confonn to the "Buckeye's
Best" requirements. This means that
calves must be vaccinated, weaned,
castrated, dehorned, and treated for
grubs, lice and intestinal parasites.
Calves must also be owned by the
producer for 60 days prior to the
nomination deadline.
Program coordinators, John
Grimes, Brown County . E&lt;t~nsion
Agent, and Stephen Boyles, OSU
Extension Beef Specialist are looking
for at least 20 producers to panicipate
with 5 head of cattle each. They are
very interested in the panicipation of
Gallia County cow-calf producers.
The OSU Extension office would like
to encourage producers to seriously
consider the benefits that this data
could offer to breeding management
programs.
If you have questions or ¥e interested in receiving a brochure about
the program, please call the OSU
Extension office at 446-7007, or
contact John Grimes in Brown County at513-378-6716. Nominations for
the' program must be postmarked by
September 30, 1996.

Saving and cashing in on your nest egg just got a little easier

'

Now Congress and President
Clinton have approved two shortlived incentives for taking money
out of retirement plan accounts.
Staning next year through 1999,
retirement investors will be able to
withdraw large sums of money from
their accounts without having to pay
this additional tax.
This is advantageous to investors
in many situations. For example, if
an investor has the misfortune of
experiencing major losses in the
stock market or in his own business,
he can offset the losses in the next
three years with a ·Jarge retirement
plan distribution and secure the
money virtually tax-tree. Another
example might be an investor who
wants to pay down a large pan of her
mortgage with a distribution from
her retirement savings. She should
do so in the nell three years to avoid
paying an additional IS percent
excise tax on the distribution.
Five-Year Forward Averaclna
Tax Strategy Dlsappearlna Soon
'The second temporary incentive
involves the existing five-year for-

ward averaging feature of retirement
plan withdrawals . This feature,
which will disappear in three years,
allows an investor on his income tax
return to pretend to spread the
income from the distribution over
five years instead Sljlking it in one
lump sum. This can shave thousands
off taxes owed on a large lump sum
withdrawal, panicularly if it is a few
hundred thousand dollars. Since this
tax strategy will only be available
through t:te 1999 tax year, investors
may want to consider malting large
withdrawals ·before it becomes history .
Investors over Aae 70 112 May
StDI Work and Save
Another interesting feature of the
new retirement plan law affects people over age 70 1/2. Prior to the
change, a ~rson 'f8S required to
begin withdrawing' money from her
qualified retirement savings account
once she reached age 70 112. Beginning in 1997, if she continues to
work and isn't more than a five percent owner of the company she
works for, she is no longer required

to take distributions from her
employer-sponsored retirement plan
.JICcount until she does retire. At that
time, current distribution rules take
effect. This new law does not impact
IRA withdrawals which still must
begin at age 70 112.
SpousaiiRAs
When it comes to IRA investing,
single-income couples will have
parity with two income couples.
Prior to the signing of this bill, single-income couples could only contribute up to $2,250 annually into
their two IRAs. Beginning in 1997,
they may contribute up to $4,000
annually, the same $2,000 per person contribution limit that dual
income couples have been able to
kick in all along. These contributions may or may not be ta•
deductible depending on participation in an employer-sponsored
retirement plan.

Silver retreats as inflation held in check;
By CLIFF EDWARDS
AP Business Writer
Stiver futures fell to 19-month
lows Friday on the New York Mer.canule Exchange amid prospects of
mcreased supplies and little demand
for precious metals as inflation
hedges .
Stiver for December delivery fell
7.7 cents to $4.863 an ounce, the lol;"est pnce smce March 29, J995. It was
the second-straight day of sharp losses for silver and led to declines 10 other precious metals.
December gold fell $1.70 to

Gold and silver often are considered safe havens dunng mflat1onary

Tiny Angus cattle developed in Australia could make big impact
By JERRY PERKINS
The Des Moines Register
DES MOINES, Iowa - Is there
room for mimature Angus cattle m
Iowa?

Nonh Dakma cattle producer Neil
Effertz thinks so
"ThiS IS the most revolutionary
thmg to htt the Amcncan beef cattle
industry since exottc cattle arrived in

Pippa, an 11-month-old heifer, to the
Iowa State Fair hoping to attract
attention .
Interest in the small Angus was so
high, Effertz said, that he plans to
bring Pippa back to Iowa for the
Farm Progress Show in Amana Sept.
24-26.
Pippa is the first miniature Angus
to be imported to the United States.
The smaller Angus were developed in Australia in the 1920s as pan
of an experiment in producing really
large Angus and really small ones.
Small cattle won
After the breeding experiments were
done and the big and small cattle produced, a feeding efficiency trial was
conducted, and the small cattle won.

'70s," Effertz said.
Effertz is so sold on the pint-size

Jf regular Angus - that he brought

One of the miniature cattle can be
wintered on 12 pounds of hay a day.
Effertz said, compared with the 45
pounds a day needed by btgger cattle.
Miniature Angus can be fed to 600
pounds on hay and grass, Effertz said,
then finished with a htgh-co ncentrated dtet of gram for 60 days and
slaughtered at 750 pounds.
It costs about $200 to feed two
miniature Angus steers to 750 pounds
and about $350 for a I ,350-pound
steer from a conventional breed,
Effertz claimed.
It will cost more to process the
miniature Angus because of their
small stze, but the cattle's feed elficiency more than makes up for the

suspicions of the Agnculture Department.
In the early 1970s, they reacted

the department to take no steps to

Then, Agriculture Secretary Earl

Another top USDA official. Kenneth
Frick, also a big cotton producer from
Californta, declared that "a few
farmers going broke each year IS one

In the late 1970s, Agriculture Secretary Bob Bergland himself worried
over USDA-financed research that
promoted agricultural industriahza-

Installing sheet-vinyl flooring
can be intimidating; complicated
By POPULAR MECHANICS
For AP Special Features
The thought of installing sheetvinyl flooring can be intimidating,
especially when you consider that
one or two mistukes can ruin the
whole sheet. The problem is compounded by the fact that few rooms
are truly square, and they have obstacles and offsets to accommodate.
How do professional installers
keep from making costly mistakes?
When a room is complicated, a pro
will make a paper pattern of the room
and transfer that pattern onto the
vinyl. As such, the paper becomes a
one-of-a-kipd template and every
wobble and bobble, every offset and
obstacle is factored in before cutting.
As a matter of fact, the Armstrong
flooring people have come up with an
error-proof installation kit that alldws
you to do just that. (You can call them
at (800) 233-3823).
The first thing to decide is whether
you'll take up the existing flooring .
If your floor has suffered water darnage and dry rot, or could simply use
a layer of underlayment to make It
more unifonn, then make those corrections before mstalling new vinyl.
Otherwise, you can lay your new

vinyl directly on top of your old.
There are two types of vinyl for
this kind of installation. One requires
gluing the entire floor, the other just
the perimeter. If your existing flooring has an embossed surface pattern,
you'll need to fill these depressions
with an embossing leveler. Without it,
the old floor's pattern will show
through your new flooring .
And because resilient flooring ts
designed to repel just about everything, you' II also need to degrade and
prep the surface with an etching solution and primer.
Highlights of the installation
begins with floor preparation.
Remove the, baseboard shoe molding
with a small pry bar. If your room is
a bathroom, you' ll also need to take
up the toilet. Any caulk along a tub
or cabinet must be sliced away with
a razor blade or blade scraper. Next,
cut the surface glaze on the old flooring with etching liquid. Rubber
gloves must be used because the liquid is very caustic. Once the etching
has dried, apply two coats of primer.
The second coat should be at right
angles to the first.
To make your paper template, lay
the paper sheets around the perime-

ter of the roo!JI, then fill in the middle and tape all the sheets together. To
hold the paper in place, cut l-inch triangular slots every couple of feet and
lay tape across the slots. To detennine
the exact perimeter of the floor,
insert a ball point pen into the roller
disc that comes in the Armstrong kit,
and trace around the room.
Once the outline is complete, roll
up the paper and lay it over the vinyl.
Draw a cuthne dtrectly onto the
vinyl. Install a hook-shaped blade in
the kit's transfer tool and then cut the
vinyl by drawing the blade along the
cutline. Apply vinyl adhesive to the
floor wtth the kit's notched applicator. Cover only half the room at a
time.
Lower the vinyl sheet onto the
adhesive, then roll the surface smooth
using a flooring roller or kitchen
rolling pin. Seal around the entire
penmeter of the room - and around
any plumbing fixtures - with latex
tub-and-tile caulk.
When laying vinyl next to carpet
use a metal tack strip. Nail the strie
onto the vinyl and bend it over the
carpet. When laying vinyl next to
hardwood noonng, buy a hardwood
red11eing strip and glue or nail it in
place.

Homes: Questions and answers
By POPULAR MECHANICS
For AP Special Features
Q: We live in a drought area, and
I'm concerned abOut the amount of
water wasted while running the tap to
get hot water in my bathroom. My
water heater is at one end of my home
and my bathroom is at the other end.
In order to get hot water through the
faucets, at least 80 feet of cold water
has to come out of the hot water line.
Is it possible to continue the hot water
line past the bathroom and then
return it into the water heater? Will
this save a lot of water?
A: The hot water system that you
have. like those in most residential
systems, is a noncirculating type. It
is generally installed be&lt;:ause it costs
less for labor and materials than a ctrculating hot water system. Even"
though the noncirculating system is
very common, it does have the disadvantage you describe.
You ean convert your system to a
circulating hot water system by
installing a relurn loop on the distribution line which runs from the last
faucet to the hot water heater. If the
elevation difference between -the hot
water heater and the faueets is greater

than 5 feet, then the hot water circulation can usually be achieved by
gravtty, the so-called thenno-siphon
system. This works be&lt;:ause hot water
rises, forcing the cooler water down .
If there is a long horizontal run in
the pipes or if there is less than a 5foot height difference between the
boiler and the faucet, the thennosiphon system won't work, and you'll
need a pump to circulate the hot
water.
This system, often used in hospitals where instant hot water is
required, has the advantage of making it available at all fixtures as soon
as you tum on the tap. Continuous
circulation between the hot water
storage tank and the faucet does the
job.
A circulating system will also save
some watef. Assuming you have a
three-quarter-inch diameter water
pipe between the hot water heater and
the tap, the 80-foot pipe will hold
about 1.8 gallons of water. This
would be wasted while waiting for
the hot water to come through.
However, a circulating system
can be energy-inefficient because
you h.,ve to heat the water which then

cools down in the pipe when you do
not use it. Insulating the pipes very
thoroughly can help minimize this
heat loss.
Q: We have a Hotpoint refrigerator with a top freezer. Whenever the
compressor stops, we near a sharp
thudding noise. This noise fmt
appeared about three months ago as
a quiet thud which has gradually gotten louder. Now the refrigerator has
started to rattle. We' re afraid it might
explode one of these days. Will it?
And, what should we do to quiet 11
down?
A: There's no danger that your
refrigerator might explode, but your
thudding and rattling noises sound as
if one of the internal suspenston
springs that mount the compres!IOr
may have broken. What you are hearing is the motor and pump assembly
on its subframe hitting a~ainsl the
side of the compressor case- that surrounds the entire compressor assembly. The only real cure is to have the

Defeating ·w ood decay
READER'S DIGEST BOOKS
For AP Special I'IIIUI"JI
Crumbling foundauons. Mushy
windowsills. Falling fence posts. For
years, homeowners were doomed to
replace rotted wood.
But the battle may finally be over.
Some manufacturers now guarantee
- not merely claim - that their
pressure-treated wood products will
withstand tennites and decay for
life. The Source of the Problem
The basic problem? Wood rots.
The source of this destruction? Fun-,
gus. Not just one type of fungus,
either. There's an entire army of fungus species that thrives on wood.
They eat the wood and cause the fiber
to dissolve.
But fungi cannot infest wood
everywhere. They need air, water and
a 50-to-90-degree temperature range
to thrive. Otherwise, they he dormant
or die.
Wood for foundation and outdoor
use is a prime candidate for rot when
it gets wet and doesn 't have a chance
to dry out. Wood Types, Sections
The idea of preserving wood with
chemicals began with the natural
defenses of rot-resistant wood,
notably redwood and cedar. The
darker colored heartwood of these
trees contains chemicals toxic to
most fungus species. The lighter colored sapwood, toward the outside of
the tree, is no more resistant than oth-

By

er woods. Preserving Wood
Currently, there are three types of
chemicals commonly used fot pteserving wood : pentachlorophenol
(called penta), creosote and chromated copper arsenate (CCA). All arc
applied commercially only and jlre
not available to homeowners . Penta
and creosote are used mainly m
industrial apphcattons. Most of the
treated lumber a homeowner ca n buy
is treated with CCA (or a s11m lar
chemical), which can be tdenufied by
the distinctively greeniSh colm of the
wood. CCA is dtssolved m water and
forced deep into the wood under pressure. II bonds with the wood fibers as
the wood dnes. After that, it won't
leach out and protects the wood
indefinitely.
The quality of treated wood
varies, depending on the spectcs of
tree and on how deeply the preservative penetrates. To be effective the
preservative should penetrate at least
2 In inches into the wood. \f you cut
through a 2-by-4, the greenish unt
should show throughout, althoug h tt
will become lighter toward the center. An AWPA (Amencan Wood Pre servers Association) stamp or tag on
the lumber is a sign of qualny control. A lifetime guarantee tag is
another good quality mdtcator.
Also, note that brushmg on a
preservative, or soaking or dipping a
piece of wood in a preservative , is not

as good as pressure treatment. With
repeated wetung and drying, such
surface-treated wood develops deep
crack&lt;. cxposmg untreated areas
where fungu s can grow.
Ltke any other wood. pressuretreated wood will warp, crack and
swe ll from exposure to mmsture. But
once 11 's dry, must treated wood can

The preservattves mtreated wood
can be harmful and shou ld be treated wuh respect. Don't usc pressuretreated wood where human or animal
food can he exposed to it, such as for

coats of polyurethane, epoxy or shellac For more details, read the consumer mfonnation pamphlets avail-,
ahle wherever treated wood IS sold.
Also, wear a dust mask to avoid
tnhalm g sawdust when cutting treated wood. Don't burn the sawdust or
scrap pieces, chemicals in the smoke
can be inhaled. Dtspose of the scraps
in your ordinary trash collection or
bury 11.

UAW plans for the future
By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG
AP Business Writer
The UAW looks to the future, the
Fed gets ready to look at interest
rates, and the government takes
another look at Microsoft.
A look at what happened in business this past week:
EASY FOR YOU TO SAY
The general assessment of the
economy these days is that the
nation's businesses are doing qutte
well - so well that many economists
expect the Federal Reserve to nudge
interest rates higher when the central
bank's policy-makers meet Tuesday.
But the nation's workers aren't kicking back and enjoying the good
times- they're already prepll{ing for
the next downturn, whenever it may
come.
When the United Auto Workers
reached a tentative contract with
Ford Motor Co. this past week, the
union exacted a guarantee that the
No. 2 automaker would maigtain at
least 95 percent of its current I05,025
UAW jobs at U.S. plants over the life
of the agreement. The provision, the
first in the auto industry, guards
against layoffs, and comes as Ford,
one of the compantes benefiung from
a stronger economy, is adding jobs.
The UAW knows that jobs can
become expendable quickly. The
union is hoping for similar provisions
as it ftntshes contract talks with No.
I General Motors Corp. and No. 3
Chrysler Corp. But GM, hoping to
trim its work force to become more
efficient - is not expected to agree
to a guarantee.
Downsi~ngs continue tn other
industries. InternatiOnal Busmess
Machines Corp. is offering incentives
to thousands of administrative workers either to leave the company or
find new jobs 10 divisions that are
growing.
Meanwhile, the financial markets
wtll be awaiting the verdict on the
economy from the central bank's
Federal Open Market C&lt;&gt;mmittee.
The consensus is that the FOMC will
push rates a quarter of a percentage
point higher, or keep them stable until

after the election.
Positive economic statistics
released during the past week, including a jump in housing starts and a
drop in the number of people seeking
unemployment benefits, made it
appear more likely that the Fed
would act to prevent the economy
from overheating and driving up
mflation.
Htgher interest rates would likely
make it tougher for consumers who
are already juggling too much debt.

a record 3.66 percent dunng the second quarter, up from 3.53 percent

off their new 1997's, and some old car
enthusiasts brought in restored vehicles.

U.S. growing
22 percent
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S.
farmers are expected to produce 254
million metric tons of feed grains this
year, a gain of more than 22 percent
from a last year.
The Agriculture Depanment forecasts increases in com, sorghum and
barley production while prices are
declining from their highs of earlier
this year. A metric ton is 2,205
pounds.
The benchmark Central IllinOis
cash price for corn slipped to u·nder
$4 a bushel at the end of August and
is still falling .
The December futures cootract for
corn dropped from nearly $3.50 in
August to the low-$3.30 range last
week. The forecast for the &lt;eason
average has been cut 15 cents a
bushel at the top and low ends - to
a range of $3 to $3.40.
The farm price of sorghum. which
had been running at more than 100
percent of the corn price for several
months. fell in August to $3.67 a
bushel - 82 percent of the com
price.
The preliminary farm price of. all
barley was $2.93 a bushel in August,
the first time under $3 since last fall.
Corn production was forecast at
8.8 billion bushels, 19 percent above
1995. The average yield is estimated
at 120.2 bushels an acre, up from
118.7 a month ago.
USDA reduced its forecast for
yields in Ohio, Michigan , Wisconsin
and Colorado and raised them in
Nebraska, Illinois, Missouri and
Iowa. The Indiana prediction was
unchanged .
The sorghum crop was forecast at
764 million bushels and average
yield at 63.6 bushels an acre. Twothirds of the total will come from two
states: Kansas with 331 million
bushels and Texas with 183 million.
Slightly higher yields will produce
a barley crop of 394 million bushels,
up 35 million from a year earlier.
North Dakota will account for 140
million of the total.

the current GOP-dominated Congress have attempted to eliminate

Engineers to identify more highways threatened by mine$
BRIDGEPORI', Ohio (AP)- As
they work to shore up an interstate
threatened by abandoned underground mines, state highway engineers try to figwe out ways to identify other areas in 'the same danger.
Last year, vehicles plunged into a
sinkhole that opened in Interstate 70
east of Cambridge.
This month, pan of Intetf.tate 470
in eastern Ohio was closed because
of holes benesth the surface. Tests
revealed that abandoned, underground coal mines threatened lfl col-

lapse pcnions of the highway.
State highway engineers expect
more problems as century·old mines
deteriorate. "It's just a matter of time
before something else pops up," said
Rick Ruegsegger, an engineer with
the Ohio Department of Transporta·
tion .
Ruegsegger and James Graham,
an ODOT engineer in charge of the
1-470 work, are on a state task fon:e
charged with preparing a plan to identify the danger areas.
Twenty-ei ~ht counties contain

4,200 known mines and perhaps
2,000 more mines that no one knows
about, according to the Ohio Depanment of Natural Resources.
"We just don't have a handle on
that yet," Ruegsegger told The
Columbus Dispatch f8t a story published Sunday. "We have an
unknown number of locations,
unknown risk factors."
