POMEROY - Projection
of a positive cash flow for
operating schools in the
Meigs Local District over the
next five years was given by
Treasurer Mark .Rhonemus to
the Board of Education
Tuesday night.
Rhonemu s presented the
district's five-year financial
forecast , which must be submitted
to
the
Ohio
Department of Education by
Oct. 31.
Figures in the October 2002
forecast show the district
moving from a projected
deficit of $2 I 8,639 in 2006 as
of last June, to a positive cash
balance of $576,512 in 2006
this month.
It further shows the district
remaining positive through
2007 with a projected balance
of$166,192 .
The figures did show a
steady decline over the next
· five years from the 2003 projected cash balance of
$1,013,425.
The treasurer credited the
turnaround from a deficit balance to a positive cash flow in
the required state forecasts to
"~etting a correct count on the
k1ds."
"
He explained that the
increase in ·money on which
to operate the schools is coming primarily from correcting
a default in student count "because the numbers weren't
accurate, the income from the
state and other sources, based
on the number of students
served by the district, was
inaccurate."
With
that correction,
Rhonemus said the district's
projection of overall funding
tmproved dramatically.
In figures released earlier
thi s year the count was
2,157students. At the end of
June it stood at 2,243.
According to Rhonemus,
that was difference of 86
" students receiving state aid at
$4,814 per pupil for a total of
$414,000 in basic aid only.
Weighted funding is given
for special education and
vocational students, which
brings in additional money,
according to the treasurer,
further contributing to the
overall increase in funding

vote on Issue I was encouraged by Dr. Joe Gay, executive director for Health

spoke at the annual bean
dinner of the Meigs County
Republican Party.
Gay said he believes the
model which would require
judges to offer treatment
instead of jail time to certain
dru g . offenders wi II not
work.
Passi ng the issue, he said,
would require judges to give
non-violent, first and second

option of treatment instead

CANTON (AP) -As a
man went on trial accused
of scheming _to have his
pregnant former girlfriend
shot, his lawyer argued that
authorities still haven't
identified the shooter.
''The state can't find that
person," defense attorney
Jeff · Haupt told jurors

of Canton,
allegedly
arranged to have Keisha
Lewis shot so he could
avoid becoming a father
and be with another
wom!lri. the prosecution
said.
Tarver is charged with
complicity to aggravated
murder and complicity to
felonious assault.
Lewis survived but lost
her 3-month-old fetus two
days after the March 7
shooting.
Chryssa Hartnett. allSis. tant Stark County prosecutor, said although police
did not find the gun they
did locate a trail of wit. nesses to trace the. weapon
back to Tarver.
"He almost got away
with it but the truth caught.&lt;
up," Hartnett said. ·
A tearful Lewis, 23, took
the stand, recalling how
she and Tarver were
robbed as they sat in his
truck in the parking lot of a
restaurant. Tarver set up
the date a week in advance
so they could discuss their
on-and-off relationship.
· Her 2-year-old daughter
witnessed the ordeal from
the back seat. .
The gunman shot Lewis
three
times
in

the leg. The two used their

The Bush ;~dministration intervened not because the siege
was d;pnaging to hopes of easing tensions in the IsraeliPalestinian conflict, but because it made it harder to rally
international support'against Iraq.
.
Yet the siege made things worse in the Middle East conflict. .
It gave Arafat, whose popularity among Palestinians had been
in steady decline, a much needed boost. It silenced moderate
Palestinians who are increasingly dissatisfied with his rule.
And it derailed any efforts 'to reform Palestinian institutions,
the stated goal of the Bush administration ....
A festering lsrael,i-Palestinian contlict will remain an obsta·
cle to key U.S. foreign policy priorities and a tlashpoint for
anti-American sentiment in much of the world . By ignoring it,
the Bush administration is showing a shortsighted lack of
leadership that will come back to haunt it.

The people are courteous, friendly
and knowledgeable. All care given there
is unbiased and private. My experience
with the health department has been
very good. Why would any person havin~ children and limited funds not use
this facility? And why would any person who has ever had children and lim·
ited funds and made use of the health
department ever deny access to this
establishment to the needy people and
the poor children of Meigs County.
Shame upon those who would.
This is our little corner of Appalachia.

ain referencing the election of justices
to the . Supreme Court in particular. I
firmly believe that since the present justices have ruled on the DeRolph issue
twice in the last 5-112 years, it is a goal
of the politicians (General Assembly) to
push for a change in the seating of the
court since it doesn 't seem possible to
change the state Constitution.
Having said all that, the bottom line is

stem into tilled soil. It grows
very quickly: Four years after
planting,
multi-stemmed
shrubs 20 to 30 feet tall are
ready to harvest; .
It sprouts vigorously after
cutting, so it can be harvested
every three or four years without replanting. "You plant it
once and harvest it six or
seven times," Volk said.
Willow harvesting equipment has been developed in
Europe, where the shrub has
been grown as biomass fuel
for 15 years. A machine simiJar to a com combine saws off
the stems near the ground,
feeds them through a chipper,
and blows the chips into a
wagon: Cutting is done in winter, when the leaves are off.
At first, · the New York
researchers used a dozen willow varieties grown for biDmass in Sweden, but they were
decimated by pests.
So the researchers collected
willow in the wild throughout
the Northeast. Using local
varieties, as well as willow
from Korea, China, and Japan,
they're crossbreeding and
growing test plots to select
plants that are hardy, fastgrowing, and resistal]t -to
insects and disease.
The best plants are cloned;
that is, cut into sticks from
which more genetically identical plants are grown, rather
than reproduced from seeds,
which allow genetic variation.
Plants can also be bred for ·
particular cheiliical characteristics. That's of interest to scienlists who are developing
refinery processes to extract
compounds from wood for use
in making· synthetic gas,
biodegradable plastics, adhesives, and other products, said
Larry Abrahamson, a senior
scientist on the project.

Willow shrubs cultivated
CANASTOTA, N.Y. (AP)
- Don New was phasing out
his dairy operiltion and looking to grow something besides
com and soybeans when he
first got wind of willow.
Not .the weeping tree, but a
fast-growing shrub touted as ~
source of clean, renewable
enetgy with the potential to
reduce harmful power plant
emissions and support the
local farm economy.
'The Cooperative Extension
called it a crop of the future,"
New said. "Farmers always
like to experiment. And I like
· g your own
th e 1'dea of growm
energy instead of importing
it."
So New agreed to participate in a pilot project to commercialize the production of
willow as a source of biomass
energy. The project is led by
researchers at the State
University of New York
College of Environmental
Science and Forestry at
Syracuse.
The researchers began
selecting varieties and growing test plots in 1986. This fall,
the first large-scale burning of
willow chips iliixed with coal
is planned at a power plant in
western New York.
Studies commissioned by
Oak
Ridge
National
Laboratory and the National
Renewable Energy Laboratory
show that between 3.4 rrcent
and 10.7 percent o New
York's coal fuel could be
replaced with wood biomass
fuels such as willow. That
would significantly reduce the
amount of sulfur dioxide,
nitrogen oxide, and carbon ·
dioxide produced by the
power plants. .
Willow is an ideal energy
crop, said Tim Volle, director
of . the . college's Willow
Biomass Program. It's easy to

Audrey · Gtant became well-known after she wrote the four
beginners' books
published by the
American Contract
Bridge League. Now,
she produces her own
works. The first in
her Improving Your
Judgment series is
" Doubles" (Better
Bridge).
Do not be fooled by
the book's title-- it is
oniS' abo.ut takeout
doubles: there is no
discussion of, for example, negative or re's ponsive doubles.
Along with the basics
explained in lucid
language, there are
many example hands,
numerous quizzes,
and 32 full deals with
complete bidding and
play .. of which this
Js one.
South is in three
diamonds. Is he safe,
or should the defense
prevail?
In the second position North would
have a bare. minimum
takeout double, but in
the balancing scat he
sho uld protect his
partner's values. (If
South has a weak
hand, why haven' 1 the
opponents
bid
higher'!) When East
.rebids two hearts ,
South should settle
for · three diamonds,
not jump to four. Do
not hang partner for a
balancing double; if
he has extras, he
should bid again.
With diamonds 2-2,
you seem to have
only four losers: one
spade, two hearts and
one club. However,
East plays three
rounds of hearts, the
last of which West
ruffs with the diamond jack. You .can
get home by overruffing (you can either eventually endplay East or establish
the spade king), but it
is much safer to discard a club from the
dummy. When you
get back in, draw
trumps and ruff your
club loser in the
dummy.

Car-deer accidents are a

December, said Lt.· Richard
Grau, commander of the
Gallia-Meigs Post of the State
Highway PatroL
,
The patrol is investigating
or taking reports on an average of five to six car-deer colli sions a day as the weather
turns colder and nightfall
coines earlier, Grau said.

Clocks will be . turned back
one hour Saturday ni,ght, sig:

"You have to be careful at
all times of the day," Grau
advised. "This is true especially now and drivers should
exercise due caution. The
speed limit is 55 miles ·per
hour, but if the conditions are
not ideal, r;lrivers should be
cautious and slow down."
Those conditions include
fog that lingers into the
predawn hours, creatin~ a ~ri­
