Reagan seeks good relationship with Mexico •
MEXICO CITY (AP)- Presidentelect Ronald Reagan's first trip
abroad to meet with President Jose •
Lopez Portillo is a strong indication
the two want to develop a personal
working relatiopship, American ~nd
Mexican diplomats here say.
It is a relationship that Lopez Portillo never managed to achieve with
President Carter - and relations
between the United States and
Mexico have stayed hwndrum as a
result.
Reagan is scheduled to meet for
the day with Lopez Portillo on Jan. 5
at the bOrder city of Juarez, across·
the Rio Grande from El Paso,
Texas, Mexican officials said. The
main purpose of the meeting is for
the two to get to know each other bet·
ter. Reagan and Lopez Portillo first
met when Reagan, while stm· a
presidential candidate, visited
Mexico City last year.
The fact tliat Reagan sought the
meeting, his first trip abroad sinCl'
Election Day, has impressed the
Mexicans. "Let's hope I~ ,will underscore the . importance Mexico
really has for the U.S. and vice ver·
sa," said one Mexican official who
asked anonymity.
·Lopez Portillo himself described
the coming meeting wi.th Reagan as
"a necessary personal relations)lip
with the chiei executive not only of

the most powerful nation .on earth
but a neighbor ... with whom we
have problems."
Among other things, Lopez Por·
tillo is expected to try to convince
Reagan that the United States must
drop what Mexicans feel is a "big
brother" attitude toward this oilrich nation, something the Mexican
president feels he failed ·to impress
upon Carter.
"The ·chemistcy between the ~wo
met\ just wasn't ' there," said an ·
·American diplomat who asked not to
be named. "Now, there is every in·
dication Reagan and Lopez Portillo
want to develop a personal relation·
ship, and that is always a big plus in
relations between two countries."
New oil finds have made Mexico
the world'S fifth richest Oil nation,
increasing its strategic importance
to the United States and, with it,
Mexico's political influence internationally.
"We have already seen signs of a
new interest In Mexico in playing an
Influential role in regional and world
affairs," U.S. Ambassador Julian
Nava said rec~ntly.
"No U.S. administration could
e"er have ignored the significance of
Mexico to our own security,'' Nava
added.
Among other things, the two countries share a sparsely patrolled

1,776-inile border, and are major
trading parblers.
Under Reagan's new Republican
administration, M¢xican Foreign
Minister Jorge Castaneda says he
expects "the most difficult problems
between Jvtexico . and the U.S. to
· come up ... on multilateral regional
issues/' as a result of Mexico's more
assertive international role .
Mexicans are particularly worried
b)' reporta that Reagan will be mo(e
aggressive ih opposing growing lei·
\is! movements in Central Ame~ica
and the ·caribbean, two .areas in
. which Mexico recently developed an
interest.
It recently Joined Ven.Zuela in an
agreement guaranteeing the oil
needs of ·Central American and
Caribbean countriea, financed by

wants to I)!! consulted. before the
United States takes any action,
Castaneda Indicated.

Ohio farmers . are hopi ng
; . President-elect Ronald Reagan and

2. They want the nation's new leader
to work on slowing inflation, ending
grain embargoes, increasing ex•· ports and agricultural research and

The best thing Reagan can do for
.., farmers is reduce goverrunent spending , to slow inflation and leave
.small-business men alone. ac·
cording to C. William Swank,
executive vice president of the Ohio
Farm Bureau Federation.
At the .farm bureau's recent an·
: nual meeting in Colwnbus, Swank
: called on Reagan to leave the
national farm program pretty much
intact when it comes up for renewal.
The program provides for target
price guarantees which come into ef·

provides price support loan s
allowing farmers to use their grain
as collateral for federally guaran·
teed loans providing a loan amount
about equal to a fanner 's cost of
production. An acreage set-aside
plan which pays fanners a certain
rate to keep laild out of production
also is part of the program .
Ohi o State farm economist
Wallace Barr said America' s farm
economy has been market oriented
since the mid 1960s. The current

Johnson who sank six, the Srhith
trio, led by Elaine Smith with seven
points, Renee Smith with six, and
Tammy Smith with four. Tonja
Salser added four, Cindy Evans two,
and Teresa Holstein two.
Uewelyn led Alexander with II,

closer as Alexander actually out- .
scored Southern 1().7, but still .fell
short at the half, 22·14.

defense and offense that was
sparked by several steals. Southern

got a great l)ffort from its bench to
open up a 36-~ lead.

carried into the final round,
Southern grew increasingly better,
at least on the scoring end, and went
on to ~n by 19 points at 56-39.

ljne for 40 percent.
Alexander canned 15 of 50 from the
(ield for 30 percent and nine of 15
from the foul line lor 60 percent.
Reserve game
In the reserve tilt Southern rolled
to a 2H6 come from behind win over
the young Spartans. The Southern
belles of Coach Kim Grueser trailed
by several points throughout the
contest including 10-6 at the half.
The YOI!ng Tornadoes rallied and
outscored Alexander 12 to 2 the final
round to clinch the win.
Southern shot only II of 3.9 from
the field for a 28 percent, but was
perfect at the line at two for two. The
winners had 16 miscues, 10 stea)s,
•
and five assists. As a team Southern
had 21 rebounds led by Debbie
Michael and Laren Wolfe with eight
each.

"An ' a tram, an' a ru bber sp1der,

an' a toy dwnp truck !" Btlly had
just fmished recitmg his Christmas
list to his grandfather, who was
asleep and gently snonng.
"Grandpa, wake up ! 11
"Hah ! Oh, yes! Well, what do you
want for Chnstmas, Btlly?"
"I just told you, Grandpa 1"
" Oh, y eS Of course! Just testing,
you understand '' He stood up slowly
and walked mto the kttchen , where
h1s wtfe .was bakmg oatmeal
cooktes. He reached around her and
snitched some of the batter
She turned around and began
chasmg him out of the room while
hitttng him over the head w1th a pot
holder.
"Gil, g1t, g.tl! No one smtches my
cookie batter! Btlly, come m and
have a cookie."
"M1Idred, why does that ltttle pipsqueak get a cookie and I don 't?"
1

•

11

Because he doesn 't try to smtch

thtngs, like a certatn person I
know

There was a tone of anger m
her vm ce.
11

"Some Chrtstmas Sptrtt," thought
B1lly, glwnly
All in all the day had been pretty
much of a dtsaster . After his mother
and father had gotten done shopping
and picked him up, he told them of
his experience.
,
"How come they acted ltke that ,
Daddy? " They always used to like
each other.' 1

"They sltll do, Btlly, but, as you
know, the blll for Grandpa's
operatiOn pretty much ate up thetr
savtngs so they don 't have much
money for boytng each other a mce
Christmas g1ft."
While lying in h1s bed, waiting for
sleep to come, Billy concetved a
brtlllant plan ...
When the doorbell rang in the
restdence of Harold and Mildred
Whimser, a votce from the kitchen
came. ." Get the door, Harold, I'm
busy " (This time tt was chocolate
chip c1"'ktes I
"Hi, Bllly. Want a cook1e ?"
Btlly had heard this questton a
nullton times before and was
prepared. "No, thanks I'll have an
apple "
"Are you sick?'" his grandma
asked .
"No, it's just that an apple a day
keeps the doctor away."
"Just what we need - a smart
mouth kid! What did you come here
for anyway, Smart Mouth Kid ?" It
was now between Bily and his grandfather .
"Suffermg IS good for the soul. ' '
"What would you do if I did
arrange some suffering? "
"I would turn the other cheek ."
"Hear that, Mildred ? We got a
prophet for a grandchild. Come 'ere,
Prophet. I want to ask you
something."
Billy and h1s grandfather walked
rnto the ltving room When they got
there, his grandfather spoke.
"S1ddown, k1d." Billy obliged.
" Listen, k1d, I don't have time for
this stuff. What didya really come
here for ?"

Billy looked at the floor. "Why you

an ' Grarruna so mean yesterday ?"

He spoke without lookmg up, and
wtth a qUtet, mtuntdated votce.
'"That's a hard questwn to answer,
Bllly I guess 1t's 'cause we don't
have much money "
11

M oney lS the root of all evil,"

Billy satd, hoping to cheer his grand·
father up . lt didn 't work.
"Shut up with the stupid proverbs
already! " The nose of his shout
brought rruldred to the door between
the kitchen and the livmg room. She
didn't say anything; she merely
stood there and watched the two
men, one young, and one old. And
she realtzed how alike they were,
and how different, and how she loved
them both.
Harold satd no more but merely
walked mto hts bedroom and closed
the door
Harold and Mildred Whtmser had
never been much in the public eye
because Harold hated giving par·
ttes. Mtidred loved parties and had
always wanted to gtve a Christmas
party. But Harold didn'tknow that.
One day ·about two weeks before
Chrtstmas B11ly was asktng hts
Grandmother what she would most
ltke for Chrtstmas. She conftded in
him that she would most ltke to have
a party
" Why'" asked Btlly
" Because I've always wanted to
be a hostess I want to prove to
people that I could have the best party anyone could remember But tt
wouldn't be mce to push Harold mto
something he didn't want. "
Now Bill9 knew what he must do .
"I must convince Grandpa toto
having a Christmas party." But
what he didn't see was Harold
Whimser m the next room, listemng
to this . conversatwn. "Goodbye,
Granuna, see you later," Btlly sa1d,
and headed for the door
" Okay~ come agatn any bme."
That he would.
The next day, Billy woke up to the
pleasant stght of sunltght pourmg m
through the curtams. He thought
everything was wonderful.
After brushing his teeth, dressmg
and breakfasting, he set out for his
grandparents', with a definite plan
of action . " I've got to convince
Grandpa to have a Chrisimas party," he thought.
" Bye, Mom. See ya later."
''Okay, dear. Have fun!' '
He arrived at the Whtmsers and
put lils btke m the garage. Shufflmg
through the crisp dry snow, he
arrived at the freshly
shoveled
(
stdewalk. He heard vmces, and stopped at the door.
" Why that would be wonderful . I'd
love to !"

"Why don 'I you start writing the
inv1tat10ns and .. ." Harold Whimster
was interrupted by the doorbell.
Billy knew that his grandfather
already had agreed to the party.
" I'll get the door," he finished.
"Oh, hi, Billy." His grandmother
rushed up to him and embraces him
in a gentle hug. "You know whap"
she asked him. "Grandpa an' me
decided to have a Christmas party .
and it was all his idea." She gave
Billy a secret wink. She turned and
faced her husband. " Thank you,"
she sa1d sweetly.
"Don't thank me, thank the thin
walls," he said. They all laughed.

"C'mon, Billy. Let's go slednding, " his grandfather said m a

" I'll make some hot cocoa for

·change has been made in the patient
admission policy at the hospital. ·
As is true in all .hospita ls, admission to the Holzer Medical Center as an inpatient can only be made
by a member of the hospital's
medical staff. When a physician
decides to admit a patient, the
Holzer Medical Center does not
request nor require any deposrt or
advance pii,V,IIll)nt and admrssron to
the hospital does not depend upon a
patient's financial status.
Ability to pay does not detennine
whether a patient can be admitted to
the hospital. This has been and continues to be the policy of the Holzer
Medical Center.

Effective January 1, anyone
collecting and transporting refuse
on a cmrunercial basis must be
licensed by the Meigs County Health
Department.
The fee is $15 per year. The license

the United States will ha.ve to spend
at least $5.9 billion - and possibly
more than 10 times that much over the next eight years before
NATO can defend Europe against

The agency, in an analysis
released Tuesday, said NATO forces
are now inadequate to defend against a concerted Soviet attack, even
with the JJSe of tactical nuclear
weapons .
