,Boyfriend's propos~d .~deal'
sound like funny business
DEAR
ABBY: · My
boyfriend. "Sammy," and I
have been living-together for
three years. We have an. 8month-old son. About two
months ago, my sister
"Angie" went to Sammy and
asked to borrow money. She
told me he winked at her and
said they could "work something out" and ·she wouldn't
have to pay him back.
Angie told Sammy she
. wouldn't have sex with him
because of me and the baby.
Sammy said, "No one would
ever have to know." He made
it sound like a business deal.
When I asked Sammy in
front of my sister if he had
been joking or serious, he just
laughed. Now I'm wondering
if he makes "deals" like this
with other women.
Things haven't been the
same between my sister and
me since the incident --· even
though 1 know she did nothing wrong. Angie says she
regrets telling me about
.Jsammy's offer. She says he's
a good man who made a mistake, and she urged me not to
walk away from him.
Now no matter what
Sammy says, I don't believe

POMEROY
- Meigs
County Health 'Department
issued a reminder of the risks
of West Nile Virus on Monday,
after the Ohio Department of
Heallh confinned the disease
in a 43 year-old Fulton County
man last week.
The health department is
specifically urging local residents to eliminate mosquito
breeding areas on their prop·
enies and safeguard against
mosquito bites.
The disease is spread by
the bite of an infected mosquito, not by birds and not by
infected humans, but there has been some limited spread
through blood transfusions
and organ transplants.
Dead birds found to be carrying the virus were found in
Middleport and other Meigs
County communities last
summer, but no cases have
been documented yet this
year. L~st year, 441 probable
and confirmed cases of the
disease in humans and 31
deaths were reported.
Residents are urged to
avoid unnecessary outdoor
activities between dusk and
dawn, when mosquitos are
likely to be out and biting.
When outside during those
hours, socks, shoes, long
pants and long-sleeved shirts
are recommended.
Mosquito repellent is recommended for all outdoor
activities, and residents are
asked to keep windows and
doors closed, and ensure that
screens are in good repair.
In order to eliminate the
breeding grounds, the health
department suggests the
removal of all discarded tires,
tin cans, plastic containers,
ceramic pots or simi lar containers which hold water, and
the thorough cleaning of all
gutters and drains.

This house, located at 207 Butternut Street in Pomeroy, is among
many abandoned structures in Meigs County that affect property
values or are potential health risks. There were two other houses
in similar or worse condition nearby. (J. Miles Layton)

PORTLAND David
Gloeckner of East Letart was
honored Saturday at the
!40th anniversary of the
Battle of Buffington Island
for, hi s efforts in organizing
the annual reenactment.
Gloeckner started the reenactment event 15 years ago at
the actual battle site and initiated efforts to save the ·land from
beingturned into gravel pits.
In introducing Gloeckner at
the recognition ceremony,
Greg Forquer of the 91 st OVI
credited him with "the reason
·
this event is happening."
"He has forgotten more
the
Battle
of
about
Buffington Island than the

rest of us will ever know,"
said Forquer.
Gloeckner received a
plaque
from
Margaret
Parker, president · of the
Meigs County Historical
Society, for his work in the
reenacting event and his
efforts to preserve the battlefield. "I wouldn 't be up here
without him. Everything he
has ever done has come from
the heart," Parker said. ·
Nearly I 00 people heard
Gloeckner's talk about the
history of the battle and
events leading up to it. About
\0 years ago he walked the
a~al route that John Hunt
Morgan followed to raise
money to place markers on
the historic trail. He described
the trail and the terrain
Morgan and his force s

encountered as they moved
east across Meigs County and
how rough territory and county residents combined to slow ,
the Confederates' progress.
''The great state of Ohio
contributed one-third of
troops to the Civil War, but
hasn't done more to preserve
and reco~ni ze these hallowed
grounds,' Gloeckner said.
The site where the battle
took place is in danger of
being lost to gravel pil s.
Gloeckner said.
"The men that died here
will be dug up and turned
into road pavement for Ohio
and Kentucky," he added.
The re-enactor told of
Morgan's stop in Chester and ·
the march to Portland. where

CINCINNATI (AP) - A
homeless man fighting the
city's effort to prevent him from
living under a highway bridge
received a temporary reprieve
Monday from a federal judge.
U.S. District Judge Susan
Dlott said she would extend
for up to 20 days her order forbiddmg the city from removing Donald Henry, 40, his girlfriend and their two cats.
Dlott said she saw no harm
in protecting Henry while she
awaits written arguments
from lawyers on both sides.
The judge ruled that Henry
could suffer harm if the city
removed him.
Henry testified that he
doesn't want to be separated
from his girlfriend, and that
his belongings could be
stolen if he were jailed on
charges of trespassing on
public property. Police would

· "We have found that in no

Foscarinis said Monday.
"Certainly, there's not sufficient affordable housing .
What the cities are doing is

Foscarinis said her organization is trying to persuade
cities to earmark more funding to provide homeless people with shelter, jobs and
affordable housing.
Henry testified that he had a
three-bedroom house years
ago in Warsaw, Ky., and
worked as a mechanic and
carpenter. He said he no
longer has a driver's license
and that family members don't
want him living with them.

Proposal would require screening of
malpractice lawsuits before trial
COLUMBUS (AP)
Doctors are backing the creation of screening panels to
weed out frivolous malpractice lawsuits in Ohio. Trial
lawyers say the idea is another obstacle between an
injured patient and a jury.
The proposal' is the latest
attempt to address rising
medical malpractice insurance rates in Ohio.
Ohio doctors complain that
double-digit rate increases
are forcing them out of highrisk specialties such as delivering babies or making them
consider leaving the profession altogether.
The top five medi~al malpractice companies writing
policies in Ohio, representing
72 percent of all policies,
increased their rates an
average of 30 percent last,
year, the Department of
Insurance said Monday.
To try to slow such
increases, Gov. Bob Taft
signed a bill in January capping damage awards for the
most severe malpractice
awards at $1 million.
Backers said high jury'
verdicts are driving up
insurance rates. Opponents
say insurance companies
boosted premiums to cover
stock market losses.
Either side in a medical
malpractice lawsuit could
request the screening panel,
which would consist of
three health care providers
arid a lawyer, under the legislation pushed by the Ohio
State Medical Association.
It was introduced by Rep.
Jean Schmidt, a Cincinnati
Republican.
The lawyer would run the
panel but would not have a
vote. The panel would decide
whether a doctor failed to
provide appropriate.care.
The panel's findings
could not stop a lawsuit
from proceeding but the
results could be used as evidence in a trial.
The medical association
defended the concept of
doctors reviewing medical
'
malpractice cases.
"Medical liability cases
come down to one question,
generally: did the physician
adhere to an appropriate medical standard of careT' Tim
Maglione, director of government relations for the medical
association, said Monday.
"The people that have the
expertise to answer those are
health care professionals."
Similar panels were
required by Ohio law for
malpractice cases from
about 1975 until 1987 when
the Ia w was changed and
the requirement eliminated.
Trial attorneys say such panels add 11I1J1eCeSS31'Y costs and
delays to the legal process.
This is another opportunity doctors are "trying to take
to place a burden. an obstacle, an expense between that
patient and their ability to
get to the jury," said Gerry
Leeseberg, a Columbus malpractice lawyer.
' In
Kentucky,
the
Department of Insurance.

has recommended a panel as ·
part of a series of proposals
to reduce doctors' soaring
insurance rates.
In the case of some patients,
"it's Dill that they want to sue,
but they want to be certain in
their own mind the care they
got was the proper quality,"
Rhonda Slone, a department
spokeswoman, said Monday.
''This would give consumers
some sense of peace if the panel
said, 'This wa~ .a bad outcome,
hut it wasn't malpractice."'
Ohio's law is modeled on
Indiana's panel, in place
since 1977. The only study of
the panel's effectiveness, in
1988, found an average case
took 32 months, said Adele
Lash, Indiana State Medical

Association spokeswoman.
Attempts have been made to
speed the process, she said.
Brian Bachelder, a family
practitioner in Morrow
County, said he was the victim of a frivolous lawsuit
four years ago. He was one of
several doctors named in a
lawsuit against a urologist
who operated on a boy with
urinary tract problems.
Bachelder's role: referring
the boy to the urologist.
Bachelder estimates the
lawsuit cost his insurance
company $25,000 to $30,000
as well as hours he took away
from his practice to .give
sworn testimony.
Jason Blue, the Columbus
lawyer who sued on behalf of

the boy, dismissed the idea
that his lawsuit was frivolous.
Bachelder was included as
one of several doctors
involved in the case, a standard practice at the beginning
of such a lawsuit th~t helps
determine who may have
been responsible, Blue said.
He said the boy was harmed
for life by unnecessary bladder surgery. He wouldn't give
the amount of the settlement
reached last year.
Blue said he puts potential
claims through a series of
internal reviews, including
study by doctors, before
deciding whether to sue.
"I don't think many frivolous lawsuits are liled," Blue
'said. "It's too expensive."

RIO GRANDE - · What
now appears as a simple corn
field could soon · become a
family favorite in Gallia
County.
Creative Nook and Farm is
starting to take shape. The property, located just off Buckeye
Hills Road on Pleasant Road in
Rio Grande, will soon be home
to a com maze and antique and
auction bam.
Annette Smith of Creative
Nook and Farm said after seeing news articles about mazes
in com fields, she decided to
check into it further. Smith and
her husband Alan, Jim and
Camille Broyles, and Tom and
Summer Morse are working in
partnership to create something unique in Gallia County.
The Creative Nook . and
Farm is contracting with The
MAiZE, a company from
Utah specializing in the set.up of large com field mazes.
:The maze will feature an
:interactive "riddle card" that
:will help lead people out of
:the maze and two bridges will
be set up for those wishing to
get out or look over the maze.
: The design of the maze is of
·a giant scarecrow complete
:with a crow on his shoulder
:and a pumpkin patch. Smith
·said workers from The MAiZE
were plotting out the com field
for the maze recently.
: The ground atound the com
:field will have soon be home
·to a 9,600-square foot craft
:and antique bam and a 9,700:square foot auction house.
Other features will include
a pumpkin patch, hiking
trails, hay rides, com cannon
:and pumpkin launch.
: Smith sajd the site will be
·available Tor a variety of
:activities, such as birthday
parties, school curriculum and
youth groups will be avail-

able. The MAiZE provides an
agricultural education packet
designed for elementary
school children.
. "We are hoping to provide a
country atmosphere, 10 provide
an experience," Smith said.
With the current tread toward
less farm land, the folks at
Creative Nook and Farm want
maze-goers to have "good oldfashioned" good time.
The "maze craze"·is becoming a popular means of entertainment for adults and chitdren. The construction of
about 140 mazes is planned
this year in the United States
and around the world.

Collectively, the owners of
Creative Nook and Farm have
147 acres with which to work.
Smith-said the maze is usually about three miles long and
will cover about eight acres.
The grand opening is set for
Sept. 20 and will run through
·Nov. 9. Hours of operation
will be announced later.
Admission for ages 12 and up
is $6.50 and for ages five to II
is $5.50. There is no charge for
children four and under.

"How could there have been
an open storm drain for a child
to be sucked into?" questioned
his father, John Keytack.
The boy was unconscious
when firefighters freed him. He
was declared dead at Trumbull

supervisor Saody Ross said
"He put up a fight," his
father said. "They got his
heart going agliin, but then it
would quit. He tried to hang
in there, but he had been
through too much."

Facing a new nuclear reality

.The Daily Sentinel
'

Page A~

By Spencer Abraham
The Washington Post

The United States took
another step toward eliminating the last vestiges of Cold
War nuclear weapons production in May when the
Department of Energy
awarded con,lracts for construction of fossil fuel power
plants · to replace · three
Russian nuclear reactors.
These reactors produce not
only heat and electricity but
also weapons-grade plutonium, enough to build I 1/2
nuclear weapons a day. When
the new U.S.-financed power
plants are constructed and the
nuclear reactors shut down,
weapons-grade plutonium
will no longer be produced in
Russia.
President Bush is deeply
committed to reducing the
number of our nation's strategic nuclear warheads by tWO·
thirds, and to preventing
nuclear and radiological
materials from falling into
the hands of terrorists. This
$466 million project is the
latest advancement in an
aggressive nonproliferation
effort that has expanded from
$800 million to $1.3 billion
per year since the president
took oftice. That's why I was
perplexed, during congressional debate on the defense
budget by the hysterics over
the $21 million that would

allow our scientists to contemplate advanced weapons
concepts that could be used
to protect against 21st-century threats. (In all, some $6.4
billion in the budget is for
Department of . Energy
nuclear weapons programs.)
This fund i'ng should not
have surprised anyone. It is
the logical result of early
Bush administration initiatives, endorsed by Congress,
to conduct a thorough review
of the nation's nuclear
weapons policy. That review
determined that the 21st-century national security environment differs greatly from
that of the past half-century.
Deterrence during the Cold
War led to a predictable-if
chilling-balance of terror that
has now Iargely vanished.
Henceforth threats will likely
evolve more quickly and less
predictably. It is a situation
that demands the restoration
of our capacity to meet new
challenges. ·
Recently the United States
has begun making great
strides to rebuild those capabilities. Now, for the first time
in more than a decade, we are
able to manufacture a plutonium pit-also known as a trigger-an essential nuclear warhead component. The lack of
this proficiency has seriously
constrained our ability to
maintain our nuclear stockpile. We have also launched a

much-needed facility modernization program. But
maintaining our capability to
address 21st-century cballenges requires more.
Should our scientists
decide we cannot certify the
reliability ·Of our nuclear
stockpile, we must be capable of conducting a nuclear
test in a much-shorter time
frame than the ·current three
years. The capacity to test
within 18 months is a critical
capability every president
must have. We must also give
our weapons scientists the
resources and authority to
explore advanced weapons
concepts, including research
related to low-yield weapons.
Funding constraints and confusing legal prohibitions
have stitled"most new thinking on the se issue.s. This has,
in turn, made us less capable
of devising the best responses to emerging threats. ·
Tl'ie challenges posed by
rogue nations or terrorists
possessing weapons of mass
destruction are strikingly dif·
ferent from that posed by the
Soviet Union. YeJ our best
thinkers aren't being allowed
to fully shift their focus from
winning the Cold War to
meeting new challenges.
Finally, we must move
ahead to address one of the
foremost military challenges
identified in our recent
review-an enemy using hard-

ened, deeply buried facilities
to protect its weapons and
other assets. We have just
begun to explore whether
modified existing warheads
might be effective in attacking such targets. Simila~
analyses of the applicability
of conventional weapons to
addressing this threat are also
being done.
We are not planning to
resume testing; nor are we
improving test readiness in
order to develop new nuclear
weapons. In fact, we are not
planning to develop any new
nuclear weapons at all. Our
goal is designed to explore the
full range of weapons concepts that could offer a credible deterrence and response to
new and emerging threats as
well as allow us to continue to
assess the reliabiliry of our
stockpile without testing.
This is a sensible course
·that meets our national security requirements by restoring our capabilities and
ensuring that we have the
flexibility to respond quickly
to any potential problems in
the current stockpile, or to
new threats that require
immediate attention. Our
policies are designed to
strengthen . the deterrent
value of our nuclear weapons
so that they don't ever have to
be used.

Americans shan: an alm?st

CINCINNATI -Jose Acevedo pitched well enough to
win a spot in the NL's least-productive rotation .
Acevedo pitched seven shutout innings as a fill-in staner
and Russell Branyan had a pinch-hit grand slam on
Monday as the Cincinnati Reds pulled away to an 11 -2 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.
The Reds ended a seven-game losing streak at home by
beating the one team they've handled easily. They've won
their last five against Milwaukee, going 7·3 thts season
against the Brewers.
Jose Guillen also homered and
drove in three runs as the Reds got
the better of a matchup of the NL
Central's bottom two teams.
Acevedo ( 1-0) was given the stan
as the Reds shifted their four-man
rotation back to a standard five-man
set. The right-hamler pitched an · inning 'in relief last
Saturday after his promotion from the minors.
He held the Brewers to two hits - a pair of doubles and struck out six on a muggy night, throwing I 02 pitches.
It was one of the best performances all season by a Reds
starter, and equaled the longest outing of his career.
Manager Bob Boone said he earned at least one more
start.
"He was terrific, really terrific," Boone said. "He had
some life in the strike zone and he had a real good breaking ball."
Acevedo was considered one of the Reds' up-and-coming stars in 2001, when he was promoted directly from
Double-A. He fell out of favor because of inconsistency
and spent most of last season in the minors.
Acevedo is 10-9 in 26 major.league appearances. He'll
get a chance to hold onto the fifth spot in the revamped
rotation. which has only 19 wins in 98 games.
"I didn't feel any pressure," Acevedo said. ''I'm 25 years
old. l"ve been here for a little while . There was nothing to
be nervous about. I was ready to rock."
Acevedo, who has his hair dyed blond, was congratulat·
ed by teammates as Branyan came to bat in his place with
the bases loaded and the Reds ahead ·7·0 in the bottom of
the seventh.

college sports

LUZ-ARDIDEN, France (AP) Lance Armstrong routed two rivals in a
riveting climb in the Tour de France on
Monday, recovering from a fall to
stamp his authority on the race after
two difficult weeks.
H.s victory in the misty mountains of
the P~renees bolstered his chances of
equahog Miguel Indurain's record of
five straight Tour victories.
Jan Ullrich, the 1997 Tour winner, is
now 67 seconds back overall, giving
Armstrong a more comfortable lead
with five stages left. Ullrich, grimacing

near the finish, started the day trailing
by just 15 seconds,
Another rival left behind was
Alexandre Vinokourov. The Kazak had
been 18 seconds behind, but he was left
flailing and is now out of contention.
That essentially reduces the Tour to a
duel between Armstrong and Ullrich
leading to the finish in Paris on Sunday.
The fall came with about 6 miles left
in the 99-mile stage. Armstrong
smacked onto the road after a spectator's outstretched bag caught hi s handlebars.

He grazed his left elbow and dirtied
the left shoulder of hi s yellow jersey
when he drove into a SP.ectator. He then
climbed back on his b1ke and got back
in the race.
The Texan also grazed his left hip but
was otherwise unhurt, said Jogi Muller,
spokesman for the U.S . Postal Service
team.
"After the fall, I had a big, big rush of
adrenaline," Armstrong said. He said
he then told himself, "Lance if you
want to win the Tour de France, do it
today." '

Snyder leads after first day at Ohio Open
CANTON (AP) - Davey Snyder shot
a 5-under-par 65 .to take a one-shot lead
over Eric Frishette and Paul Wackerly III
after one round 0f the Ohio Open at Tam
O'Shanter Golf Course on Monday.
Rainstorms twice delayed a field of 267
in the $75,000 event, which is celebrating
its 80th year and includes such former
champions as Byron Nelson, Jack
Nicklaus and Tom Weiskopf.
Finishing tied for second last year were

Frishette and Ben Curtis, who won the
British Open on Sunday. Frishette preceded Curtis as a player at Kent State.
"Let's make it a Kent State week,"
Frishette said after shooting a 66 on the
6,538-yard, par-70 Dales Course. "The
British Open and the Ohio Open, why
not?"
Snyder, a· 49-year-old assistant pro at
Fairlawn Country Club in Akron, will try
to stop the former Golden Flashes' run to

the winner 's circle.
Snyder, whose best finish in the event
was a tie for 23rd in 1991 , birdied two of
his first three holes on the 6,362-yard,
par-70 Hills Course before a 40-mmute
rain,delay.
"I lipped out putts for birdie on No. I
and a~ain on No. 4 and then it really let
loose, ' Snyder said of another 30-minute
downpour that again stopped play and
changed the way both courses played.

demeanor.
Defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier
said Weathersb~ has been cooperative
so far as he tnes to make up for the
time lost to his extended recovery.
"His situation is so unique compared ·
to other rookies," Frazier. said. "Our
approach with him in training camp is
maybe going to be a little different than
with other rookies because of the
things he's going through.
"But he has given sucb great effort in
eve.ryihing that he's doing. He has been
attentive. He has been a coach's dream
to this point, and that was contrary to
everythmg that was said about him
before the draft. There was so much
speculation about his character."
Coach Marvin Lewis spoke to
Weathersby on the phone before the
Bengals drafted him, and again when
he showed up in Cincinnati to start his
career. The coaching staff will watch

him closely for the first few weeks,
looking for any sign that he's not up to
it.
.
"We're not going to allow him to sit
around and be a bump on the log,"
Lewis said. "We're going to pull it out
of him. Once you (get to know) him,
then he starts to glow, his eyes twinkle
and he gets that smile and he exudes
that confidence he's played with."
When Weathersby spoke of his
ordeal, he only gave brief glimpses of
what he has been through theJast three
months. Until Monday, he ha declined
to be interviewed about his recovery.
He acknowledged that in the shortterm, he' ll be known more as a shooting victim than an NFL plar.er. He

major conferences- Pac-1 0,
Big 12, Big Ten, ACC, SEC
and Big East - and two atlarge teams to play iq the
BCS bowls.
The system worked perfectly last season when it
paired Ohio State against
Miami in the Fiesta Bowl in a
matchup of the only undefeated teams - a matchup
that couldn't have happened under the old sy$tem of conference tie-ins.
"Since we reorganized a little bit to allow for No. I vs.
No. 2 game, there really has
been no change in the schools
that would have q_ualified
befQre and that quality now,"
Spanier said.
University of NebraskaLincoln chancellor Harvey
Perlman said the commissioners could consider adding
a championship game after
the four BCS games, as well
as adding another game to the
system to give schools from
smaller conferences a better
chance to get into a major
bowl game ..

and Virginia Tech to the
ACC.
Delany said the Big East's
chances of remaining in the
BCS in the next contract
depend on how attractive the
reconstituted
conference
would be to television networks.
Also, the Big Ten is not
looking to add a 12th team
and wouldn't want to start a

championship
game even if an NCAA rule
change allowed it for conferences with I0 or 11 teams.
While such a game could

generate as much as $12 million for the conference,
Delany said the drawbacks
outweigh the extra money.
" It makes it much more difficult for your champion to
run the table," Delany said.
"Then, the loser of the game
is ' less interesting' to bowls
because it's coming off a loss.
Also, fans who made a major
trip from their homes to the
venue may be less inclined to

claret jug he had toted all
over the world, and has gone
four majors without winning. Odds are, he didn't
wake up at his home in
London to tabloids screaming he was in a slump.
Vijay Singh, a world-class
player with two majors, hasn't won the last 14 majors
and had just as many
chances as Woods on the
back nine at Royal St.
George's.
"I had my chances and I
blew it," Singh said.
"There's no excuse for that."
Davis Love III, who
played in 28 majors before
he got his first top 10,
missed every crucial putt at
the beginning and end of his
final round.
It only seems as though
Woods should win more
because he already has won
so many.
The first Woods heard
about a slump was in 2001.
He promptly won three in a
row, the last one at Augusta
National for an unprecedented fourth straight professional major.
Slump talked surfaced
again last year, and Woods
became the first player in 30
years to win the Masters and·
the U.S. Open.
Even after failing to win at
Royal St. George's, the idea
of a slump seems silly.
He already has won four
times on the PGA Tour,
more than anyone else. His
tie for fourth at thi; British
Open put him atop the
money list, which puts him
on course to win for a record
fifth straight time .
The only thing he might
have lost was an aura of
invincibility.
If Rich Beem didn't prove
it last year at the ,PGA
Championship, holding off a
late charge by Woods to win
at Hazeltine, Curtis gave
hope to everyone at Royal
St. George's.
Not since Francis Ouimet
in the 1913 U.S. Open had a
player won it major championship in his first try. Curtis

hit Ostrander before
BY RUSTY MILLER
Associated Press

OSTRANDER - Ben Curtis' aunt has a
big problem in planning a weekend bridal
shower .now that her neJ?hew has shocked
the golfing world by wmning the Briti sh
'
Open.
"What do you get for someone who has
just won $1.1 million?" Nancy Plant said
Monday. "Do I still get them a gift certificate at Target?"
Curtis edged Fiji's Vijay Singh and
Denmark's Thomas Bjorn by a shot Sunday
in orie of the biggest upsets in the 132 years
of the British Open. As Curtis flew home
. from Sandwich, England, relatives and the
400-plus residents of Ostrander still were
trying to absorb how a small-town boy
made very, very good.
On what would otherwise have been a
slow morning at the Mill Creek Golf Club
owned by Curtis' family, a reception line
formed near the grill. Ben' s dad. Bob, his
mother, Janice, and his 80-year-old grandmother, Myrtie Black, took turns doing
interviews.
Other relatives were scattered around the
clubhouse, where Ben learned the game
from his grandfather. Out on the practice
putting green, a couple of Ben's nephews
and nieces took whacks at the ball while a
film crew logged every second.
Golf was the topic of the day at the
Ostrander Restaurant and Pizza Shop,
which also sells night crawlers at $2 a
·
dozen.
"We can't talk about anything e.Jse, nothing else is even close," said owner Yvonne
·
·
Ball.
The Delaware County Bank and Trust Co:
was awaiting delivery of a large banner celebrating Cunis ' victory.
Ben's parents live across Main Street
from the bank . A large fiberboard sign near
their front yard said, "Go Ben!" in orange
letters.
The only police car in the village - a
rusted, decades-old Plymouth Gran Fury stood guard unattended. The car isn' t actually used to fight crime - there is no village police department - it is just moved
around so that out-of-towners hit the brakes
when they see the lights on the roof and the
peeling "Ostrander Marshal" emblem on the
side of the car.
"That's their security," laughed another
one of Ben's five aunts, Linda Black .
On the outskirts of town, the Ostrander
Implement and Farm Center wasn't adver-

tising any specials. "Go, Ben , Go !'' said the
marquee.
·
Inside. Mike Schuette, who said he plays
golf occasionally at Mill Creek and knows
the Curtis family, said he cannot recall anything bigger happening here.
"This put s Ostrander on the map," he said
while tightening the chain on a chain saw.
The vi llage always was on the map, quietly perched a half-mile off a state highway
about 40 minute s northwest of Columbus.
There are no streetlights. The " busine ss district"" consists of an insurance agency, a
grain mill, the bank. re &gt;taurant and a couple
of churches.
.
At the Ostrander Presbyterian Church, the
topic of the I 0:30 a.m . sermon Su nday was
''God Bless America. "
Curtis' family has been trying to put it all
into perspective. Janice Cunis said she
spoke briefly Sunday night to her son, who
was· at the tournament with hi s fiancee,
Candace Beatty.
" He was the usual Ben,.. she said. "He
was a little excited. He said, "I played OK.'
When I talk to him, I don ' t dwell on the
golf He gets enough of that. I asked him
what he had to eat. And Candace is a picky
eater. I wanted to know if she had enough to
eat."
Business started picking up at Mill Creek
about the same lime the sun came out after
a morning rain ,
When Bill and Myrtie Black lold friends
they were goi ng 10 build the golf course on
their 60-acre farm, many told the Blacks
they were crazy. They opened the first nine
hole s in 1973, living in the clubhouse
because there was so much to do a1id the
days were so short. They bought more land
and added another nine holes in 1977 ,
Janice used 10 bring her boyfriends out 10
the golf course and the cot1ple would pick
up rocks before they could go out to a
movie or dinner. Of all the boyfriends . Bob
was the hardest worker. It wasn ' t just happenstance that he ended up marrying her
and becoming the head greenskeeper.
Bill taught hi s grandchildren to play, but
none took to it like Ben. Likewise, no one
was hit as hard as Ben when Bill died in
February.
That became ev ident when. as he accepted the claret jug near the 18th green on
Sunday, hi s voice cracked as he lhanked hi s
family for its support
After ·their August marriage. Ben and
Candace are to move into a hou se in Stow, a
suburb of Akron not far from where they
attended Kent State University.

Harrassed female emp,oyee
should start taking names
DEAR ABBY: I'm writing
in response to the letter from
"Sick of B'eing \.Cupid," the
Manhattan, N.Y., office worker v. ho was required to provide female dates to her bosses. As someone who has committed sexual harassment
against co-workers in the past,
I feel compelled to comment.
If ever there was a case of
sexual harassment, this is it.
However, Abby, although I
agree with your reply, it did
not go far enough. "Sick of
Being Cupid" should do the
folloWing:
(I) In addition to documenting the times and places
where she was asked to provide her bosses with "dates"
or escorts, she must also document to whom she spoke and
whal was discussed in terms
of what would happen on the
date(s) and what, If any, compensation "Sick" was due.
(2) Research the company
lo see if her bosses have bosses of their own to whom they
are accountable.
(3) Find and hire an attorpey who specializes in
-"employment law to represent
her interests.
(4) Contact the Equal
Employment
Opportunity
Commission (EEOC) offices
in the jurisdiction where she

already have three young chi I·
d'ren.)
I have suggested to Mom
that she go to .a bereavement
group or see an individual
therapist. She heard me, but
has done nothing about it. Is
there anything else I can do?
-CONCERNED DAUGH·
TER IN NEW YORK
DEAR CONCERNED:
Yes. Take your mother by the
hand to some bereavement
group sessions. It will give
both of you a chance to bring
your issues out into the open.
Also, if your mother's "pain"
(translation: depression) does
nol begin to abate, inform her
doctor. She may need antidepressant medication to help
her through this difficult period.

BY BERNICE BEDE 0SOL

In the year ahead, you'll be
exposed to far more people
than usual. A few could tum
out to be quality friends who
will have a strong influence
on you.
CANCER (June 21-July
22) -. Just because robbing
-feter to pay Paul worked out
previously for you does not
mean you can handle all your
financial affairs in the same
manner. Today will show you
why.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Let your deeds speak for
themselves. Don'l boast about
things you have yet lo accomplish, or the skeptics will
surely expose you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
- Someone who knew you
way back when could be
among your listeners today, so
be careful how you represent
yourself. Pretenses will damage your image.
.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-0d. 23)
- You can be the perfect
teammate if you are willing to

!J

adjust your thinking to the
will of the majority, but don't
carry this too far. The wrong
crowd could lead you astray.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) - It will be those silly
trivial infractions - not the
big issues that others find
fault with -- that stick a thorn
in your side. Be careful not to
be thoughtless of others.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) - If you can't say
something complimentary
about another, say nothing at
all. Criticism will sink like a

drivers are buckling up than
ever before, bill there are still
a large number of motorists
in Meigs County who don't

The Ohio Department of
Public Safely conducted a
survey, which discovered that
seatbelt usage is at an all-time
high in Ohio. According to
Mmmi University's Applied
Research Center, the state's
"Click It or Ticket" campaign
had a 7.6 percent increase

from a seatbelt usage rate of
65.5 percent gathered in
April, placing Ohio seatbeh
usage at 73.1 percent for May.
Sgt. Dale Holcomb of the
Meigs/Gallia posl of the Ohio
State Highway Patrol has
patrolled the roads in Ohio
for 17 years and has seen
more than 3,000 accidents.
"I am a firm believer in
seatbelts," he said .. "I have
seen only two accidents in 17
years where seatbehs were a
detriment, but I have seen
thousands of accidenls where
seatbehs saved or prevented
statewide, there are a number
injuries."
While seatbelt usage is up of motorists in Meigs County

who was delighted with a display of ornate bubble wands at
Pomeroy's Hartwell House. Caitlyn, the daughter of J.R. and
