I have a couple more suggestions other than ~'Ongesting tmtlic that may help. They might want to consider not allowing the police department to sit in the parking lot. backed up against the wall with their lights off at 6 in the morning. Or maybe letting them know that it isn't all right for them to sit in the bays at the car wash with their lights off (also at 6 a.m.). And maybe if,they didn't hide in the t•ar lot coming out of Middleport. . Fixing these problems might solve the problem of Pomeroy labeled as a speed trap. These are some of the instances that I have personally witnessed. The previous letters are ri!lht. People do not want to come to.Pomeroy to do business tf they are going to he picked on by tht; local police department. I know of several folks who·take their business to Athens or Gallipolis just so they don't .have to fool with the "new and improved speed limit" and hiding · police cars. I like Pomeroy, and it's a shame that all of this is even an issue. I drive through P9meroy both wal's everyday for work. In my opinion. it wasn't a good thmg for the local businesses to change the speed limit. By no means am I a police basher. I respect what they do . But l)le fact of the matter is; for the past 17 years that I've been driving through the town, not once has that police officer hiding in the parking lot, in the car wash, between used cars or even out in the open. made me feel like he's . there to help me. Maybe if we started off with that issue then people wouldn't be so upset about the speed limit. Joey Smith Athens ..• PageA4 .

Like Jindal facing an unfair playing field after the pestdent's speech, Romney had some disadvantages not of his making that he just couldn't overcome. But as with Jindal that night. there was sometbiag people needed to hear that Romney could not manage to convey. Jindal has a long, bright political future ahead of him. Rightriow, he ought to focus his energy on rebuilding ""d reformin~ the disaster- and cormpllon-riddled state that he so loves. And he should fight his battles as . he faces them - making dear, as he did on "Meet the Press" recently, that he'll reject federal money if the funds won't benefit residents of his state, and refusing to take part in the creation· of new, unsustllinable bureaucratic entities. When he does that. and does it in ·his element. he sings. And it's a song - of responsibil· ity and principle and .com· mon sense - that we thrill to hear.

Benson accepted a two-year deal from the Bengals, who liked what he did late last season and wanted him to stay as their top runnins back. S1gning Benson became a big priority for the league's lowest-rated offense after right tackle Stacy Andrews and top receiver TJ. Houshmandzadeh turned down offers to stay. Andrews signed with the Eagles, and Houshmandzadeh chose to play for the Seahawks. Cincinnati also lost backup quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick to Buffalo. Benson visited the Houston Texans on Monday, but chose to stay with the Bengals in part because they offered him a chance to start. The Texans were looking for someone to back up Steve Slaton, who ran for 1.282 yards and nine touchdowns last season. · Benson was one of the few bright spots on offense for a team that went 4-11 -1 last season. The 26-yeur-old running back will be the centerpiece of ari offense that's being overhauled to concentrate more on the running game . . Benson was Chicago's first-round pick and the fourth overall in the 2005 draft, but didn't ~out and was released following two arrests m Texas involving alcohol. The cases were dropped in September when grand juries dectded not to indict Benson, who was out of · football. · With their group of running backs thinned by injury, the Bengals signed him to a oneyear deal on Sept. 30. He quickly moved ahead of Chris Perry for the slatting role, and rushed for more th'lll 100 yards in three of the last four games. · "Cedric was recognized as an · elite talent coming out of college,'' coach Marvin Lewis said Tuesday. "His years in Chicago weren't what he hoped for, but he was able to give us a lift on the field and be a great presence in the . locker-room. He earned everyone ·s respect, and we're excited to let him continue to grow in our system." Benson finished the season with 747 yards on 214 carries. He also cau~ht 20 passes for 185 yards. He had the team s longest run (46 yards) and longest reception (79 yards). · With Benson's signing. the Bengals ;viii be Boscom Hopeweii·L~ OS, Anica Seneca E.45 S.Jiin Center Weshtrn Reserve 64, OHIO ~S> Cln.
