sexual desires - not fur

1be idea of "'"""'""g in

thai includes kissing anyone
on lbe mouth. This does not,
however, tr.mslate into a
1ac1: of interest in daling or
even maniage. I don't want·
to remain alone lbe rest of
my life. I would love to
have a close, roving (but
sexless) relationship with a
man. 1 just don't know how
to go about finding a man .

still wants to marry.

WAVERLY · Despite
virtually equal performances
from both teams for six of
seven innings, the Meigs
Lady Marauders softball
team was defeated 6-0 by
the Waverly Lady Tigers in a
Division 0 sectional :;emifinal Saturday afternoon.
The loss brought the 2008

for Meigs, striking out three
batters and walking four.
Waverly pitching struck out
14 batters and walked one.
Both teams had one hit batsman and two errors.
Freshman Shellie Bailey
had the Lady Marauders '

Barr
played
in
thetr final
game for Meigs High School
softball.
There were just five· hits
total in the game and one for
each team after the first
inning.
The Lady Tigers had
seven consecutive batters
reach base in the first, and
only one didn ' t go on to
cross home plate. Waverly
got three hits, three walks,

Pratt

and reached
on an eJTOr.
Fro m
there , the
Lady Tigers
saw
four
batters or
less go to
the plate in
each of the
final
five
innings .

Unfortunately for Meigs, the
single inning they accompli shed . something offensively turned out to be
enough to adv ance in the
tournament.
It was the opposite for the
Lady Marauders, who went
three up, three down in the
frrst, second, and third only
to have base runners in each
of the final four innings.

Their best
opportunity
came in the
ftfth when
Bailey

"We were

even after

first
inning," said Meigs head
coach Dave Fife. " We had
three . different situations
with runners on, and. we just
didn 't get it done .
"I told the girls, (next
year) we have to put ourselves in a better position .
We have to finish where we
don ' t have to make that twohour bus ride."
Meigs fmi shed third in the

Tri- Valley Conference Ohio
Division w ith a record of 64, g iving them one more
division win than 2007.
Though the 2009 Lady
Marauders wiU be without

Bailey ' s emergence as both
an offensive and defensive

should prove to fi ll some of
the void they leave behind .

from both teams for six of

Waverly pitching struck out
14 batters and walked one.
Both teams had one hit batsman and two errors.

in
thetr final
game for Meigs High School
softball.
There were just five· hits
total in the game and one for
each team after the first
inning.
The Lady Tigers had
seven consecutive batters
reach base in the first, and
only one didn ' t go on to
cross home plate. Waverly
got three hits, three walks,

Pratt

and reached
on an eJTOr.
Fro m
there , the
Lady Tigers
saw
four
batters or
less go to
the plate in
each of the
final
five
innings .

Unfortunately for Meigs, the
single inning they accompli shed . something offensively turned out to be
enough to adv ance in the
tournament.
It was the opposite for the
Lady Marauders, who went
three up, three down in the
frrst, second, and third only
to have base runners in each
of the final four innings.

Their best
opportunity
came in the

with runners on, and. we just
didn 't get it done .
"I told the girls, (next
year) we have to put ourselves in a better position .
We have to finish where we
don ' t have to make that twohour bus ride."
Meigs fmi shed third in the

Tri- Valley Conference Ohio

division win than 2007.
Though the 2009 Lady

POMEROY
- The
Meigs County Women
Infants Children (WIC)
nutritional program recently
received awards for Best
Practices in Promoting and
Supporting Breast Feeding
and Best Practices . in
Community Relations and
Outreach.
The
awards,
which
included plaques and two
checks for $500 each, were
presented by Ohio WI C.
Current Meigs County
WIC Director Leanne
Cunningham said former
director Debbie Howell
applied for the awards
based on activities and community outreach the agency
pj:rformed last year.
In relation to the .award
for Best Practices in
Promoting ;md Supporting
Breast Feeding, Meigs
County WlC staff attempted
to present breast feeding as .
a societal norm and empower participants to make an
educated decision about
,breast feeding. According to
Cunningham. the goal of the
staff is to establish relationships with participants that .
facilitate trust and open
communication . so mothers
receive the support they
need to reach their breast
feeding goals.
Meigs County WIC also
took part in several activities in honor of Breast
Feeding Awareness Month
including public service
announcements, a presence
at the county fair and in a

"There are a lot of needs

funding, and many of those
were discussed during the
planning process," Stewart
said. "But there are a lot of .
regulations as to how tile
money can be spent"
" It is rewarding to assist
with projects through the
capital bill, because past
projects have been beneficial to people in the communities and the county, as
a whole."
