Despite various changes, 49ers remain class of NFC West
IY'BILL BARNARD

AI' Sports Writer

The San Francisco 49ers looked vulnerable last year,
lllld still won lhe division by six games, quite a feat in a
l~aame season.
Again, the 49ers have problems, but no other team in
~ NFC West appears capable of making up that whopprng spread.

The best of the rest is Carolina. which beat oul the
49ers for the division title in 1996, only to fall far short
of challenging last year.
The success in the Panthers' second year proved to be
an illus_ion when lhey fell from 12-4to 7-9. They were 90 at Ericsson Stadmm 10 "1996, 2-6 last year; their sack
lola! fell from 60 to 36; and their turnover differential
fell from plus-17 to minus-13.
To get back what they lost, the Panthers signed II
free agents, mosl notably defensive tackle Sean Gilben
linebacker Kevin Greene and Green Bay cornerback
Doug Evans.
. Gilben, mter siuing out a season in a contraCI dispute
wnh Washmgton, became the highesl-paid defensive
~layer 10 NFL history. Greene is being reuniled with

Greene on the learn fell from 13 112 to two.
Carolina also needs a rebound season from Kerry
Collins. who led the learn to the NFC championship
game m 1996 but lhrew more interceplions than any
other quarterback last year.
Atlanta's key to victory in 1997 was the health of
Chris Chandler, who was second in quarterback ratings
and had a touchdown-interception ratio of 20-7. In
games he staned and finished, lhe Falcons were 7-l olh·
erwise they were 0-6.
'
Chandler will miss departed wide receiver Ben

a 3.5 average from starter Jamal Anderson.
Bul lillie was done to upgrade an offensive line that

Still quilting after all these years:

Meigs woman observes 101 st birthday by practicing her life-long cr~ft
BY CHARLENE HOEFLICH
nmea-sentlnel Sta"
POMEROY - Quilting has been a part of Belva
Willard's life since she was a teenager and al 101 years
old, she still enjoys !he craft.
In fact on Thursday when she observed her lOis!
birthday, a part of her day was spenl _sewing together
colorful pieces of fabric into overlappmg cucles for a
quill lop she has been working on for the past several
months.
The design is original and alllhe work is being done
by hand.
"I don't like to use a pallern, or do the ':"ork by
machine " commented Mrs. Willard, who remams ag1le
and alert', and has a keen sense of humor.
She describes her health as "preuy good" and admits
only "to forgelling some lhings."
"Lately 1 don't remember like 1 did ..... guess I'm getling old," quipped the centenarian.

As for the quill she's working on, she says she hasn't
yet decided whelher she will give it away or keep it for
herself. She's hopeful that the Hemlock Grove Quillers
will do the quilling. After all she knows the quality of
their work. Until last summer when she had a bout with
illness, she was a "regular" at the weekly gatherings for
quilting in lhe basement of the grange hall. .
Asked when she'll get the quilt top fimshed, she
replied thai she has "no reason to work fast since she's
not going anywhere."
"I work on it a lillie every day and when I get tired I
lay il aside."
She said !hal sometimes her fingers ~et sore all~ough
she always uses a lhtmble. She descnbed Ihe lhtmble
that she uses as a "liny liltle thing" which she gol in a
"swap" with Sarah Cull urns, another member of Hemlock Grove Quillers group.
.
.
Mrs. Willard spent mosl of her hfe on a Rockspnngs
Road farm ou1s1de Pomeroy. She grew up m lhe house

she left last December when she moved lo Darst s Pn·
vale Care Home on Chtldren's Home Road last Decem·
ber.
The farmhouse she and her lale husband, Homer,
occupied for the pas! 50 years was lhe one m whtch she
was reared. The couple moved !here from lhetr Cherry

For several years dun~g the mld-1930s, ~r. and Mrs.

1978, and after five years .of planning and funding sea rches, ground
was broken on the three-phase project in October 1997.
The first phase of the project is
expected to be operational by midOctober~ the last one is estimated for
completion by Dec. 24, explained
Harold Montgomery, president of
the Gallia County Board of Commissioner,, the proJect 's lead
agency.
Montgomery said that the path
for the effluent was originally to
have been on public right-of-way,
but that proposal was ruled out by
the U.S. Rural Development
Agency, lh~ project's leading funding source.
That forced the county to move
the line on1o 15 feel of private prop-

erty; be explained. And even at that,
Montgomery stressed, lbe line was
moved 300 feet downstream to be
away from homes and businesses.
Out of 700 easements obtained
by the county, Douglas' property
was the only one where no agreement ~ld be made, Montgomery
said.
The county eventually sued to
assert eminent domain over the 15
feet of the Douglas land, and while
the judgment went the county's way,
Douglas was awarded the value,
$3,500, assessed by his appraiser.
"We're sorry to have this situation, but it is necessary for the discharge to reach Barren Creek,"
Montgomery said. "Without this, we
cannot serve approximately 400
families and complete a $6.3 million
project."
Montgomery added that the
action has been app1oved by the project engineer, RDA and the Ohio
Environmental Protection Agency in
order to meet the timetable and cost
of the project.
"We've tried every way in the
world to resolve Ibis situation, but
due to time constraints, project
demands and approvals from the
funding sources, it wasn't possible,"
the commissionei said.

Congressional leadership
will discuss Starr's report
By CURT ANDERSON
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON- The House's
'enior Republican and Democratic
leaders wi ll meet after L.ahor Day to
discuss how to handle an independent
counsel "s report anticipated to outline

allegations of impeachable offenses
by President Clinton.
The meeting. re&lt;jucsted by House
Democratic Leader Dick Gephardl of
Missouri in a telephone conversation
Friday with Speaker Newt Gingrich,
R-Ga .. would be the first between the
two on the issue . Meanwhile. the
Rules Cnmmiuee released a proposed
How.e procedure for dealing with an
impeachml!nt probe.

AII told. the events were a sure
sign that Congress could become pre-

()(Cupied by Independent Counsel
Kenneth Starr's repon on Clinton's
relationship with former intern Monica Lewinsky and other mailers Starr
investigated.

.. All of us might be so distracted
and consumed by this issue that we
fail to pay proper allention to other
very serious issues that are emerging
in the world ... said Sen. Max Cleland,
D-Ga.
Senate Majority Leader Trent
Lull . R-Miss .. sounded a similar note
today in the Republican Party's
week ly radio address, saying that in
the current unsettled economtc and
foreign policy environment, "it is
especiall y important that Congres.s
exerc i&gt;e leadership in the weeks
ahead. "
" Wr: are detennined to maintain.

and justify, your confidence, no matter what else may happen in other
!&gt;ranches of government," he added.
Starr has not said when his report
might be forthcoming. but Democmls
want a plan in place that protects both
parties and decides such mailers as
staff aiiOimenL
"Mr. Gephardt had a productive
phone call with the speaker," said
Gephardt spokesman Erik Smith.
"In his conversation, the speaker
pledged that Democrats would be
partners in the decision-making
process and agreed to a meeting on
Wednesday to outline procedures for
dealing with a report to Congress."
He quoted Gephardt a.&lt; adding: "If
this process must begin, it is among
the most serious responsibilities Congress will undertake and it must be
conducted in a truly bipartisan manner."
A Republican leadership aide.
speaking on condition of anonymity,
said Gingrich " made clear that he
hoped the process would remain
bipartisan, he hoped the members
would not . prejudge until they have
reviewed all the evidence and that he
had tremendous confidence in the
ability of Henry Hyde to lead this
proces.&lt;."
Hyde, R-111 .. is chairman of the
House Judiciary Committee, which
would have jurisdiction over any
report Starr submits. The meeting on
preparations will include Hyde, Gingrich. Gephardl, House Majority
Leader Dick Arrney, R-Texas, and
Rep. John Conyers of Michigan. the

intern.

In political terms, Wednesday's
meeting will take place amidst a
backdrop of rising concern among
Democmts that the president's personal troubles will exact a heavy
price on their fortunes in the November congre&gt;sional elections.
"I think it's depressing and discouraging for Democrats like
myself." Georgia's Cleland said. "I
think it will depress Democratic
turnout. ··

Clinton himse lf uttered the words
''I' m sorry" on Friday. the first time
he has done so in public since admitting he had had sex ual relations with
Ms. Lewinsky and then hid the truth
from the public for months .
Meanwhile, Rules Commiltee
Chairman Gemld Solomon. R-N. Y..
said in a statement that he has been
working closely with Hyde to draft
House procedures to handle any
report that Starr submits.
Solomon said his intention was to

give the Judiciary Commillee sole
jurisdiction over the full repon. and
any executive summary would be
made avai Iable to all members of
Congress. If the Judiciary Commiuee
later determines that a full imjleachment inquiry is warranted. the entire
contents of the report should be
released to all lawmakers, he said.

Heavy security greets symbolic march
NEW YORK (AP) - A heavy
police prese nce and crowd control
barricades greeted the 1hous.ands of
people of all ages and races who
flocked to Harlem Saturday for the
Million Youth March rally.
About 3,000 police officers were
on hand. Some participants said the
sea of blue uniforms made them
angry. Rallygoers had to pa." through
a maze of gray metal barricades to
gain access to the six-block area
along Malcolm X Boulevard set
aside for the rally - which was a
march in name only.
Kevin Johnson and his 9-year-old
son Kevin Jr., carried signs saying
"Jobs. not jail."
But the Harlem resident pointed to
the barricades and commented sadly,
"This is like being in jail."
Some blamed Mayor Rudolph
Giuliani for sending the brigade of
cops. Giuliani had billed the march a.&lt;
a hate r•lly because of its association
with Khallid Abdul Muhammad , who
has made anti-Semitic and other
racial slurs in the past.

By R.B. FAl.LS1mOM
ST. LOUIS (AP) - Mark
MeGwire's almost there.
With millions watching on
national television, McGwire moved
within one of Roger Maris' homerun record, hilling hi s 60th in the
first inning Saturday as the St. Louis
Cardinals beat the Cincinnati Reds
7-0.
McGwire, who has five homers
in his last four games and 13 in 18
days, joined Babe Ruth and Maris as
the only players to hit 60 homers in
a single season. Ruth hit60 in 1927,
a record that stood until Maris hit 61
in 1961.
McGwire has 21 games remain ing to set the record. While Maris
also played in a 162-game season,
Ruth accomplished his feat over a
154-game schedule.
Saturday's shot off Dennis Reye s
(3-5) put St. Louis ahead 2-0 and
gave McGwirc a three-homer lead
over the Chicago Cubs' Sammy
Sosa, who hit his 57th Friday night
at Pittsburgh . The Cubs and Pirates
played again later S3;1urday.
McGwire, who got only his 12th
homer off left-handers this season,
struck out in his final three at-bats.
The sellout crowd of 47,994 stood
throughout each McGwire plate
appearance.
Cincinnati was !he last NL team
this season to give up a homer to
McGwire. He entered the day 2-for16 with no RBis and 12 walk s
against Reds' pitching.
After consecutive mullihomer
games against Florida, McGwi.re
was 0-for-3 with a walk in Friday
night's series opener, the stan o( a
five-game homestand. He appeared
determined to end the drought on
Saturday, taking big cuts in every atbat.

John Mabry singled with one out,
Reyes threw two balls inside and
McGwire hit a lowering drive that
plopped into the left-field stands .
The homer was estimated at 381 feet
- one of his shorter efforts. Only
18 of his homers have been measured at less than 400 feet.
On his way to the dugout, he
saluted the fans . McGwir~ then
emerged for a curtain call ~nd saluted again.
Deni Allen, .22, who works in the
St. Louis Rams' marketing department, sneaked two sections from his
seat to be in position to catch the
ball . Allen, who didn' t use a glove,
snagged the ball after it deflected off
another fan's hands.
"I've watched on the replays and
the first guy never catches it," Allen
said. "I knew that, so I waited for
the rebound."
All those big cuts have had their
downside for McGwire, who has
136 strikeouts, second in the league
behind Sosa's 140. He stranded a
man on first in the second, fanned
on three high fastballs against Mike
Remlinger in the fifth . and struck
out again on a high fastball from
John Hudek in the seventh.
Meanwhile . Donovan Osborne
(4-3) pitched a three-hitter and the
Cardinals won for the fifth time in
six games, slopping a 10-gamc losing streak to the Reds.
Fernando Tatis added an RBI
double and Ron Ganl scored on a
wild pitch in the Cardinals' four-run
first Mabry had an RBI double and
Brian Jordan had a two-run triple in
a three-run seventh.
Notes: St. Louis has 13 games
left this year at Busch Stadium,
where McGwire has 30 homers ,
nearly twice the previous season
record of 17 . McGwire has 84
homers, 169 RB!s and 189 walks in
I 84 career games with the
Cardinals, who acquired him from
Oakland on July 31, 1997 .

:Beallsville cruises by Eastern 41-0 in Eagles' home opener
:By Scott Wolfe

·T-s Correspondent

. EAST MEIGS - Beallsville
:graduated its heavy-hiuers from last
;year. but had good line-up in reserve,
-rolling to a 41-0 non-league rnumph
:over the Eastern Eagles Friday night
·in East Shade River Stadium.
· Eastern had some bright spots,
:but lacked consistency and intensity
:throughout the course of the game.
·That coupled with the young thor:oughbreds Beallsville put out to pas-

ture, resulted in very one-sided
game.
Eastern struggled offensively
throughout the night and did not
reach the 50-yard line until its ninth
possession of the game. At that
point, Eastern finally managed to get
to the 48-yard line, already some 27
points behind. The farthest Eastern
crept into Beallsville territory was
when the Eagles reached the 39-yanl
line .
Trevor Shaffer, Tony Stephen,

Chris Caldwell and the Nippert
brothers, Derek and Dustin, put on a
torrid offensive display that neued
over 400 yards.
The fireworks staned early when
at the &amp;;06 mark, Dustin Nippert
went in from nine yards to complete .
a six-plays, 36-yards drive. The
Stephen kick was good and the score
stood 7-0.
Caldwell scored the next points at
the 6:23 mark of the first quaner to
cap a 40 -yard , four -play drive

capped by a Kyle Salkenstein kick to
make the score 14-0.
Beallsville pushed the score to 200 when Derek Nippert romped 17
yards at the 2 40 mark of the first
quaner, capping a 35-yard drive that

took two plays. The kick was void for a 27-0 tally.
That score stood until the half.
and the score stood 20-0.

Point Pleasant blasts Roane County 48-0, stays undefeated
By RICK SIMPKINS
T-5 Correspondent
POINT PLEASANT, W.Va.The Point Pleasant Big Blacks had
three 100-yard rushers and received
touchdowns from five different
players en route to a very lopsided
48 -0 wm over the Roane County
Raiders in a non-c onference game
played at Sanders Memorial Field
Friday ntght.
The win was the fourth for the
Big Blacks in their brief six game
series with the consolidated school,
and second consecutive win to open
the 1998 season.
Sophomore Justin Beckner led all
rushers in the game with 137 yards
in just two carries (a 68.5 per carry
average) and he also scored twice.
on runs of 65 and 72 yards. Jamie
Buskirk also reached the coveted
plateau with 109 yards on 12 carries,
and Dusty Higginbotham went over
the 100 mark for the second consecutive week with 103 yards. As a
team , the locals rolled up 524 total
yards, including an amazing 51 i
yards on the ground .
While there were no individual
defen sive stats available . the Big
Black defenders stood tall as a unit,
allowing the visitors only IRI yards
of total offense. including 131 on
th e ground. Point a llowed the
Raiders only eight first dow ns all
evening and force d two Roane
turnovers.

The Big Blacks scored twice in
every quarter except the second and
were never se riously threatened in

the extra points, finding Buskirk in
the promised land lo make it a 20-0
game at the half.
The second half was more of the
same for the locals. Brent Rollins,
Point's quarterback who was injured
in the St. Albans scrimmage two
weeks ago, made a surprise start and
scored the founh Big Black touchdown on a 46-yard scamper. Rollins
accounted for 78 yards on the
ground in his first stan of the young
season following his injury .
Buskirk added his second score
of the evening later in the quarter
when he ran 26 yards for another
Point Pleasant touchdown . Eric
Hanning converted both extra point
kicks to bring the score to 37-0 at
the end of lhe third quaner.
Beckner took over for the locals
in the final stanza, scoring both
times he touched the football . Cody
Swann was successful on both extra
point kicks to set the final score.
"I really don't like beating anyone
48-0, but this win was good for us in
many ways," said PPHS head coach
Steve Safford. "First and foremost,
we are 2-0 and it has been a long
time since we started the season
with two straight wins. We received
great production from our front line
people and we also were able to get
some younger kids some quality
playing time which is always good.
And, those younger kids played well
which is very encouraging. Like I
said. I don't like winning 48-0, but it
sure beats being on the wrong end of
the same score," added the long time
Big Black mentor.
This week's agenda : The Big
Blacks hit the road for the first time
when they travel to Hcrben Hoover.

Ross SE gets 38-13 win over Southern
By SCOTT WOLFE
T-S Correspondent
RICHMONDALE - The Ross
Southeastern Panthers. expected to
be in a semi-re buildin g state this
seaso n. proved ot herwi se Friday
night as they rolled to a 38- 13 nonleague win over the Southern
Tornadoes in the season opener in
.Ross County.
Statistically, the game was fairly
close , but bi g plays and untimely
penalties put the Tornadoes in an
early strangle-hold . Southern rushed
for 262 yards co mpared to the
Panthers' 323 yards. The Tornadoes
moved the ball well between the
goal posts, actually dominatmg in

first downs 17 to 12.
For Southern, it was like cele brating your birthday with a party
and not getting an) cake - a
Panther feast and a Tornado famine.
Adding insult to injury. Southern
lo st junior running back Adam
Cumings at the 8:59 mark in the
third quarter. Cumings had already
racked up 47 yards in just over a
half. On Saturday morning .
Cumings' injuries were reponed
only as a sprain. The injury is mobilized and he is listed on a day-to-day
basis. possibly sitting out only a
week.
Ross scored on the eighth play
from scrimmage at the 9:54 mark

when Jared Turner caught an 11 yard Tyler Barbee pass in the right
side nat. The Wes Wood kick was
good for a 7-0 tally.
Southern started the game off
with an on-side type kick thot the
Panthers fumbled but recovered 21
their own 46-yard line.
On the ncKl possess ion . the
Tornadoes staned to move the ball
well. pushing to the Ross IR-yard
line . Southern attempted a sc reen
pass, that fell short of its target in
the backfield. In a delayed reaction.
most everyone, players and fans
alike, were content that the pass fell
incomplete. Tyler Barbee reacted
quickly , picking up the bouncing
pigskin and virtually ran untouched
82-yards for another Ross score at
the 8:44 mark. An unsportsmanlike

penalty prevented a good SE kid.
and the Panthers led 13-0.
The controversial call was discussed at length by the official s. but
when the discussion was over. a

touchdown was signaled and
Southern. st ung by the turn of
events , stood dismayed for much of
the remainder of the first halL
Much like its breakdowns of a
year ago. Southern was again susceptible to the big play, untimely
turnovers and needless penalties.
Southern again moved the ball to
the Ross 27-yard line, but fell short
and was forced to punt. The SHS
defense held in four plays on the
next exchange, but a costly fumble
on the return baited the hook for

losses since the 1989 season.
"We had far too many breakdowns on both sides of the football,"
a disappointed Cromley stated fol lowing the defeat. "We're not playing aggressive enough to overcome
our mistakes and our depth is continuing to give us serious problems,"
the four1h-year coach added.
Missed opportunities and fumbles
plagued the White Falcons throughout the night offensively while
breakdowns in assignments proved
to be the order of the game for the
WHS defensive unit.
Bishop Donahue scored its first ·
three touchdowns. from long range.
with a 42-yard halfback pass, a 38yard reception and lateral and a 77yard kickoff return accounting for
the Bishops first three scores of the
evenmg.

Doesn 't the NFL start today? Isn't Jerry Ria:
bad in San Francisco? Let's go after him! He can't
be that good of a role model! He's got to be hiding
something!
. .
.
Let's ask his former girlfriends, his grade school teachers and Juruor bigb
school teammates for stories. Keep digging until you fmd something, anything that can be used against bim.
See if he ever knew Monica. Dido 't Ria: aa:ompany the team to the
White House to meet with Ointon after the 49ers' victory in the Super
BOwl?
Dig, dig. dig and keep digging until you bring me some evidence we ca_o
tw!st. distort and present as half-tnnbs in order to sell papers and destroy hiS
image. After all, it worked for Mark McGwire.
.For example, as late as last Thesday stories surfaced that Mc&lt;lwire was
indirectly responsible for a 600 percent increase in the sale of Androstenedione in the Columbus area.
Will someone please tell me the truth about this legal over-the-counter
product. More important, if it is legal. why is it even an issue? And it it's
.
dangerous, then wbat is it doing on consumer shelves?
Those who use it claim it improves endurance, strength, muscle ~= and
stamina when it is combined with other supplements, such as creaune. But
Mc&lt;lwire isn't taking creatine, so what's the deal?
.
All 1 krtow is that it's a wonderful way for some cut-throat, low-life,
pond-scum reporter to ta!nt on~ of the best sro~es of the year. M~wire, the
most prolific home run h1tter sma: Babe Ruth, 1~ allegedly cheatmg beca~
he's taking a product which the FDA and MaJOr League Baseball say IS
legal.
1 know what we can do. Let's ask every doctor from here to llmbuktu
what they think of Androstenedione, I can't think of a better way to oonfuse
the issue.
b I'
Ltt 's ask the general manager of Powerhouse Gym in Colum us. m
sure he 's an expert on the effects of this prod~ct! After all, don't all gym
managers have degrees in phannaoology? I thmk tf they attended college,
they are more apt to lake the same courses as Andy Katzenmoyer.
1 wonder what sort of abuses one would discover if someone took the
time to investigate the legion of reporters who arc foll~ing ~ig Mac and
Sammy Sosa around the major league circuit~ They mtgbt d~SC?ver that
some of these finger-pointer.; use Viagra, Rogame or that new harrgrowth
product which shouldn't be handled by paegnant women, ~~ tt could
cause certain birth defects. I wonder how many cheat on thetr wtves and are
alcoholics? Do you think they always issue a truthful expense report? .
I'm not attempting to defend perfonnance-enbancmg products. I m JUSt
disgusted at the garbage these reporters continue to pass off under ~e
umbrella of legitimate journalism. It seems they can't stand anyone who ts
decent.
·
h'ch
How many of them reported that Mc&lt;lwire negotiated a contract w r
requires the Cardinals, after they reached over 2 million m attendance, to
donate one dollar from every ticket sold for the remainder of the season to
his charity for children? This number was ~ched last weekend. Here's a
man whose concern for children will translate mto over a mlllton dollar.; for
abused and deprived children in the St. Louis area.
_ _.
I guess this act is not considered n~wswo~y. Just ~It, tf tt was properly reported, it could have caused an mcrease m donauo~s to youth centers.
McGwire's act shows him to be a man of compassro~, characte~ ~nd
integrity. Here is someone who shows his concern for chtldre~ by gtvmg
back to the community. Last I checked, that was the type of acttv1ty we associate with role models.
.
.
Go ahead and bash, taint and destroy the Mc&lt;lwrres, Rtces and ~ of
the world. Then go home and complain about the lack of role models to SOCI·
e~. Explain to your children why there aren't any role models a~ound today
like there was when you were young. The truth be told, there JUSt weren t
any reporters like you.

White Falcons were dominated in

Bishop Donahue raced to a relatively easy 32-21 grid win Friday
evening in the Bend Area team 's
1998 home opener.
A pair of trick plays led to the
Bishops first two touchdowns and
after Wahama closed the gap to a
five point spread early in the third
quarter, a 77 yard kickoff return
essentially took the fight out of the
White Falcons.
The loss was the second in a row
for coach Ed Cromley's Bend Area
team, while Bishop Donahue
improved to 1-1 on the 1998 grid
campaign. The consecutive setbacks
marked the first time WHS has

Project to assist

old strip mine areas
GALLIPOLIS - Trees are now
available for planting on abandoned
and unrcclairned strip mine property
from Lillie Raccoon Creek Project
The Lillie Raccoon Creek
Water&gt;hed Project, a partnership
between the Vinton, Jackson, and
Gallia Soil and Water Conservation
District's Ohio Department of
Natural Resources Division of Soil
and Water, ODNR Division of Mines
and Reclamalion. Ohio Valley
RC&amp;D, Ohto EPA. and the Raccoon
Creek Improvement Comminee, is
offe ring assistance 10 landowners
who have barren ground left over
from previous mining activities.
Thus far this year, officials have
planted 40.000 seedli ng s on
reclaimed strip mine ground in
Jackson County in an a11emp1 to
speed up the production of ground
cover other than grass on approximately 40 acres of land. This was
done in cooperation with the Sands
Hill Coal Company, Division of
Mines and reclamation, and the
Civilian Conservation Corps. For
1999. the group hopes to spread this
a'isistancc to individual private

landowners who have propeny that
remains affected by past mining
areas.
Orten this land stands barren with
lillie 10 no ground cover for years
after mining activ ities have taken

place. In some cases, allempts to
grow cover on the property may have
failed. During heavy rainfall events,
this bare ground can contribute high
loads of sediment to the stream system.
The high sediment loads degrade
water quality in Lillie Raccoon Creek
and eventually Raccoon Creek. If
affects both the habitat for the aquatic life in the stream and value of the
~lion opponunities for people.
The trees that the project will be
making available will include a mixture of hardwoods and some pines.
Some of the trees will be specially
treated so 10 improve their chances
for survival in the rough living conditions. The trees will be available
for planting in late March of 1999 _
To be eligible for the trees the
land must have evidence of past mining activity and be located in the
Lillie Raccoon Creek Watershed.
Landowners must request a site
visit to detennine acreage and eligibility.
The deadline for requests is
Friday, Sept 25.
For more information, contact
Chip Rice, project Coordinator, 740S96-S676.
There arc a limited number of
trees available and eligible requests
will be filed on a first-come, first·
served basis.

Casey oversaw lhe repairs on the church • including a baule with an insurance company who wanted
to pay only pennies a panel for the window damage.
Casey eventually got an insurance adjuster from
Florida to see their true value, and plead the case.
Repairs to the roof and bell tower were finished this
week by the T &amp; T Construction of Oak Hill. Eric
Tober! who worked on the project noted that the bell,
an original fixture weighing nearly 700 pounds and
measuring two and a half feet in diameter, was in perfeel condition.
The church's last pastor James Harris, of Huntington, W.Va., was involved in the decision. At the
group's request, he spoke to the bishop about the
plans for a historical center. "I'm behind it 100%. The
church has had a rich history and they have served
the community welL But, they were without a minister once again, and at the end of everything, They felt
like no one cared about them · that they were forgot len about."

Harris had come to the church when they were
without a pastor. "They were only having services
every other week. I heard about their plight and knew
thai I had to help them. I drove from Huntington with
my wife Freda and grandson Errick, every week.
They kept telling me what a burden it must have been
on me, but it wasn't. II was a joy to serve them. I
wanted to keep the church alive and viable. They
have the sweetest spirit· there is no way you can't
love them. I had to help keep the church going · for
the Lord and for them."
Harris, who has been transferred to a church near
Wheeling, W.Va., says, "No maller where I go, no
maller how large a congregation I have , John Gee
will have a spot in my hean that can never be
replaced."
The group called an organizational meeting wi th
Joseue Baker, Bobelle Braxton, Rev. Gi lbert Craig,
Jr., James Keels, Barbara Scou, Promolia Smith and
Wiberl Stoney. With plans in hand for the transformation from house of worship to historical center, the
group selected the name John Gee Black Historical

CHURCH HISTORY

one that now houses Waugh
Home. When Gallipolis was torn up and muddy during the Civil War, Gee installed sidewalks to maintain
civic pride.
The Gee family married well· establishing themselves as one of the most prominent black families in
the stale.
Among the many genealogical connections, were
the Clark and Woodson families- both were noted
for their endeavors in the fields of education and law.
In 1868 the church was dedicated al its present
site. Some lime in lhe 1880s, the church was named
for Gee, its first greal benefactor and principal
founder.

The church was originally organized in 1818 by
John and Barbara Gee, William and Eliza Napper,
Leah Stewart, Henry and Nancy Bell, John Givens
and Lorian Givens under the name of the Bethel
African Methodist Episcopal Society. After meeting
for many years in a school house on Pine Street in
Gallipolis, the congregation buill a small38 x 40
structure, where they met for several years. In 1866 a
more ambilious building projecl was started. John
Gee, a prominent Gallipolis carpenter donated the
land for the church.
Records at the Ga llia County Historical Society
lists Gee being born on May 29, 1797, to Moses and
Phoebe Gee. He married Mary Rupe on August 26,
1819, in Gallipolis.
According 10 the Sunday Times Sentinel historical
writer James Sands, Gee came to Gallipolis as a servant for J.P.R. Bureau. He followed Bureau to
Columbus when the later became a slate senator. He
had no money and was primarily self taught and self
educated. He did, however, have some instruction at
the local black school in the Pine Street area.
Gee quickly became a " mover and shaker in the
Gallipolis area.
"He became involved in the Mutual Aid Society to
help improvised former slaves in Mason County,
W.Va. Gee was the benefactor of the Pine Street Co lored Cemetery, with his donation of land."
His skills as a carpenter were widely renowned.
He build several structures in Gallipolis, including

Dorothy Casey admits the creation of the historical
center is a, "... relief. It was gelling to be too much to
keep the church going. The four of us tried to do as
much as we could, but it was just too much."
She looks forward to educating area children and
adults about the rich, yet mostly unknown history of
the Black community. "We have so much to share
with people and that has given us a reason to embark
upon this project."
The newly elected board of officerS will be
launching a membersh ip drive 10 invite individuals
and organizations to contribute to a project they, too,
believe is much needed.
According to Braxton, "We want to keep this hislory alive and share it with I~ community. We have
much to share ... and this is the first step."

Are picnickers ready to let

By RACHEL BECK
AP Business Writer
NEW YORK (AP)- There's a
new question for hosts gening ready
to set the picnic table this Labor Day

The Gallia Times of
October 4,
1916, ran a
front page
story that told how the Hocking Valley Railroad would no longer run its
trains by telegraph but would
switch to telephone. The article told
how E.E. Gillingham who had
superintended the building and
repair of the Hocking Valley telegraph line from the early 1890s to 19
I 6 would switch to maintaining the
Hocking Valley Railroad's telephone
lines. In effect the era of the telegraph in the history of Galha Country was drawing to an end.
It was in 1847 that poles were
first set in Gallipolis for the telegraph. Those poles ran along First
Avenue. The poles were so prominent then on that avenue that for

speech by mail. He told his readers
that he was surprised that the
telegraphed speech was accurate
even down to the commas, "There
could scarcely be a stronger proof of
the perfection of Professor Morse' s
system of telegraphing thall this."
The telegraph did cause some
problems or temptations as evidenced by the following editorial in
the Gallipolis Jounlal: "We warn
those who have been throwing
stones and brick-bats at the telegraph wire. Offenders should calculate the consequences if they engage
in like sport. Parents will here sec

reason for warning their children
against such reckless mischief, lest
the penitentiary should embrace
sons dear to them. 1be law will be
enforced; must be enforced; or the
company must abandon its work.
This it will not, cannot do. It must
and will fearlessly protect its property. Let the penalty of the law fall
where it may."
One of the pioneers of telegraphing was long time Gallipolis native
William G. Fuller. He lived here
from aboutl865to his death in 1903
as part owner of the Fuller-Hutsinpillar Furniture Company. But from
1848 to 1865 Fuller worked with the
telegraph. After serving with distinction in the Mexican War with
Zachary Taylor and being present at
the battles of Tampico, Vera Cruz,
Alvarado and Campeachy; Fuller

Loretta Lynn's down-home country style still rings true
By MIKE McQUAIDE
The Bellingham Herald
Loretta Lynn 's public relations
people tell me I can have a 10minute phone interview with .the
country music lege nd. Nothing
·about her personal life.
But Lynn lived in Whatcom
County, Wash. for II years, got her
start play ing at the Delta Grange and
the now -defunct Bill's Tavern in
Blaine. Wash . - she even won 17
canning awards and a talent show at
the fair - how can I not ask her
about her personal life, I beg.
Lyn n's people aren't moved.
You have I0 minutes, they
repeat. Nothing personal.
An hour later the phone rings and
someone on the other end says,
.. Stand by for Loretta Lynn:" I
:check the clock. Ten minutes, noth: ing personal .
There's a shuffling sound as the
phone is passed to the Queen of
Country Music.
" Howdy Mike' What y'all doin'
in my ole neck of the woods'!"
Loretta Lynn says in the thickest,

Kentucky-est drawl I've ever heard
in my life. "That's home for me up
there. All my memories are there and
all my kids' memories are there."
In 1950. a 14-year-old pregnant
Lynn moved to the Custer. Wash .,
area with her husband, Mooney.
They lived in Whatcom County until
1961 , raised four children there.
then headed for Nashville, where
Loretta hit it big country-style.
" I just can 'I wait to come back,
but what hurts me most, honey, is
having to leave," Lynn says. She
played the fair in 1974 and 1982, and
in 1988. she sang at Clyde Greene's
funeral in Custer. Greene was a close
family friend and Mooney's employer for several years.
"I know when I leave, I'll go to
the back of the bus, pull the curtains
shut all around me and just cry,"
Lynn says.
Throughout a 30-minute interview, mostly about her personal life,
Lynn was the epitome of downhome, porch-front, Southern hospitality. (I've never been called

" honey" so many times in my life.)
Before Lynn started singing professionally, she cleaned houses and
picked strawberries in Whatcom
County to help the family make ends
meet. Mooney worked as a logger,
in agriculture and. for a time, as an
auto mechanic in Ferndale.
With the help of Custer's Edna
Brann, Loretta became adept at
putting up preserves. even winning a
truckload of blue ribbons at the
Northwest Washington Fair.
"Edna done more than anyone to
teach me about canning. and I after I
won a few awards. she wasn't gonna
teach me no more," Loretta says.
cackling with laughter.
While working around the house,
Lynn passed the time serenading her
four small children - Betty Sue,
Jack Benny, Ernest Rey and Sissywith the popular songs of the day.
"Mooney would come home and
hear me singing ' White Christmas'
or something to the babies and he
said, 'You're gonna go out and
work,"' Lynn says.

A nervous Loretta Lynn made her
debut in about
1958 when she
sang with the
Westerners,

a

country band, at
the
Delta
Grange. Fern::.::___J dale's (WashingLorena Lynn
ton)
Annie
Brown, 82, was there.
"She had a cute little cotton dRSS
on and real long hair and when she
opened her mouth, everybody was just
shocked by her voice," Brown says.
"She just had everybody in awe."
Gigs at Whatcom County
nightspots, such as Bill's Tavern and
Blaine's Pastime Inn, followed.
As if raising a family and performing weren't enough to occupy
her time, Lynn started writing her
own songs.
"Doo (Mooney's real name was
Doolittle) got me a song book and I
looked through it and I thought, 'this
ain't so hard, anybody can do this,"

Powerful human drama will steal you away
By ELEANOR O'SULLNAN
Asbury Park Press

Despite being made in the selfpromoting '90s, "The Thief" possesses the great humanistic traditions of an earlier screen era.
It 's a join t French and Russian
production and the sobering fact is
that it was made for TV, which just
goes to show you that the tube needn'I be a reposttory of mediocrity.
Lyrical, bright. funny and imaginal!ve, "The Thief" tells a simple
ta le well . We witness the story
through the eyes of 6-year-old
Sanya, who is brought to luminous
life by newcomer Misha Philipchuk.
The boy has the sweet nature and
easy screen presence of all memorable child actors.
It's 1952. Sanya and his beautiful
widowed mother Katya (Ekaterina
Rcdnikova) wander aimlessly
through Russia by train, seeking
food and shelter. In the cruel grip of
Stalin, Russia is a shattered nation
unable to provide even basic staples
lor its people.
A beguiling, handsome officer
Tolyan (Vladimir Mashkov) deliberately bumps into sexy Katya on a
train and quickly works himself into

her life. Her fatherless son is alarmed
by Tolyan 's forceful personality but
intrigued by his magnetism.
The threesome become a family,
but with a twist: Despite his uniform, Tolyan is no soldier. He's a
scam artist and thief. His modus
operandi is to move the family into
collective apartments, charm the
landlord and tenants, then rob them
blind. With the stolen goods jammed
into a table cloth, Tolyan and his
new family hop a quick train out of
town and then celebrate in the dining car with gnod fnod and wine.
It 's an exhilarating life, freed of
money worries and boredom. Naturally, it can't last.
Of the movie's many riches, there
is the genuine comradeship that
Tolyan inspires among his new
neighbors. For a time, they are lifted
out of their grim lives by his bonhomie.
Director Pavel Chukhrai's flawless touch hits a nerve in a haunting
seaside scene: After a particularly
fruitful burglary, Tolyan takes the
boy and his mother to a resort at the
Black Sea. Until this moment,
Chukhrai has shot the film, appropriately, in murky, hushed tones.

But he shakes us up by bathing
the following scene in dazzling light.
You can practically feel the warmth
of the day : Pointing all the way, a
grinning Sanya rushes through a
sumptuous hotel down a flowerstrewn lane to a mass of blue. The
adult Sanya tells us in voice-over
that it was his first view of the sea.
At this moment, we understand
why Sanya and his mother are so
grateful to this strange man.
The relationship that develops
between Tolyan and the boy is crucial to the story's coda. Tolyan can
be a bad influence - he teaches the
boy how to fight dirty - and he can
be a helpful guide through life's
brambles. Vladimir Mashkov is an
actor of enormous appeal, so it's
easy to understand why everyone is
duped by Tolyan.
And Chukhrai is so masterful, he
can even steal from .. Shane" and
make the scene stand on its own. It's
as beautiful and sad as the U.S. original, directed by George Stevens.
Chukhrai's movie has echoes of
another Stevens' film, "The More
the Merrier," a wartime comedy
about strangers sharing living quarters.

'ER' and 'Jurassic Park' share something, but not dinosaurs
By JOHN KIESEWETTER
The G:lnclnnatl Enquirer
Would " ER, " today 's best TV
drama, have been as successful in
the 1960s?
Thai's not idle speculation.
What most loyal "ER" fans don't
know - eve n many folks at NBC
dun 't know - is that the original
"ER" pilot script dates back 30
years.
Many have heard that best-selling author Michael Crichton
("Jurassic Park") created the drama
based on his days as a Harvard Medical School student (1964-'69). He
was inept Dr. John Carter, portrayed
by Noah Wyle.
But Crichton actually wrote the
script back then'

says CBS President Leslie Moonves,

in 1994.
" As a mal!er of fact, there was a
reference In Tommy Heinsohn playing for the Roston Celtics. That's
how old the ' ER' script was."
Heinsohn retired from the Celtics·

"I give George a lot of credit
because he saw that being one of six

Some other things to know while
watching the first "ER:"
• Julianna Margulies' character
(nurse Carol Hathaway), based on
Crichton 's friend who committed
suicide, was supposed to die in her
final scene in the pilot. But the cast
and crew loved the actress and pursuaded producers to keep the character alive.

"The Thief" is actually a celebration of a grim era's difficult but
more convivial way of life. Tolyan
couldn't possibly exist in today's
world, with its paranoia and distrust
of
strangers.
Director-writer
Chukhrai knows that, which is why
his film 's powerful ending has such
elegiac overtones. It signals the end
of an era, but the good news is that

human dramas are a thing of our
film past.

Lynn says.
She wrote and recorded the song
"Honky Tonk Girl," which climbed
the country music charts. Lynn doesn't sound impressed when she
recalls the song.
"I had only been writing songs

it sounds like a dang jam session,"
she says.
The song's popularity fueled the

POMEROY - It's time to attend
the Farm Science Review, September
22-24th at the Molly Caren Agricultural Center. London. Ohio. Put on
your hiking shoes as you look over
600 exhibits. covering 93 acres.
showing you the latest agricultural
equipment, seed and production
methods. Visit the full scale displays
of pond~. wildlife areas. and land usc:
ideas. Homeowners can visit the
Utzinger Gardens to learn the latest
tips on maintaining vegetable. garden
and lawns. Admission is S4 dollars in
advance (available at our extension
office. Shade River Ag and Sugar
Run Mill until September 21st) and
$6 dollars a1 the gate. Children 12 and
under are free.
Are perennial weeds such as John' son grass. hemp dogbane. ironweed,
milkweed and thistles a problem in
your fields. pastures or along your
roadways? Hard work, crop rotation
and perseveraoce is needed to bring
these weeds under control.
September is an excellent month
to conclude control measures. If not
spraying weed&lt; continue to brush hog

~eeds before they go to seed. Spraymg regrowth on last month's mown
weeds will need to be delayed this
year due to dry conditions. Systemic
herbicides (like Roundup Ultra) need
to be applied to actively growi ng.
non-stressed weeds. Systemic herbicides are taken into the plant through
the leaves and are translocated into
the . root system. So delay spraying
until after much needed rains occur
and plants are actively growing. Spot
sprays or using a weed wick are ·ideal this time of year as you can minimize the amount of sprdy used. yet
maximize the number of weeds
killed. Make sure to follow label
instructions.
Remember to continue to control
perennial weeds next spring as dormant weed seeds from prior years
begin to germinate. Pre or post emergent herbicides for the young
seedling control will be needed.
Aggressive cultivation of fir.;t or
second stage seedlings may help in
some row crops. just watch out for
weeds within the row. Review the
Ohio State University Extension's
Weed Control Guide available at the
extension office for effective herbi-

cide recommendations that can be
applied to crops you are growing.

a private pesticide license to spray
chemicals on your farm or greenhouse. plan on attending an arranged

The best retirement: Plan now to make it happen
By JAY CALDWELL
GALLIPOLIS - Ask a number of
people to give you their definitions
of "the best retirement" and you'll
get a lot of different answers. Some
mtght say it's the freedom to travel ,
explonng whatever small town or
major natton they find intriguiny.
Others would reply that it's tloc
chance to tndulge in favorite sporo·
and hobbies--golf. fishing. gardening. craft's--or to learn new ones.
Still others would say that for them,
the best retirement means si mply
being able to spend more time with
friends and neighbors. children and
grande hi ldren.
Varied answers. indeed. Peopie
define retirement as personally as
they've defined their lives. But
there's one definition they all can
agree on: 'The be st retirement "
means freedom from financial worncs.
You probably leel the same. A
secure and comfortable retirement
'is •omctbing ~all hope for. But in
today's complex and costly world.

an affordable
retirement
takes
more
than hope . It
takes:
Understanding
You need to
recognize and
comprehend
your
main
sources
of
retirement
Caldwell
mcome--your
three retirement paychecks: Social
Security. employer pension benefits
and your own ,sav ings and invest ments.
Planning
You need to learn how careful
planning can make those three paychecks work together to create the
best retirement for you.
Let's face it: Most of us don't
really want to plan for retirement.
We have many other things we'd
rather think about-and spend our
money on--and retirement isn't

always at the top of our agenda'
But first get comfortable with
the concept. Don't look at retire·
mcnt planning as something to be
avoided as long as possible.
Instead . 'view it as an opportunity
you have today to r•·edict and influ·
ence the size of the retirement pay·
checks you'll be receiving. Through
plannmg , you can determine :
•How big a total paycheck you'll
need m retirement.
•How big a retirement paycheck
you can expect from the government and your employer.
•How hig a retirement paycheck
you can give yourself.
Your paycheck to yourself
Just like previous generations.
you may he counting on the gov·
ernment's paycheck (Social Sccuri·
ty I or your employer' s paycheck
(pension benefits) to create a finan ·
cially secure retirement for you.
That's risky at best. These days.
Social Security and employer pen·
sion bcncftts make- up only 40 percent to 60 percent of your retire-

ment income needs. and that percentage will probably continue to
decrease.
What's needed . then. is an
increase in your third retirement
paycheck--the one you can give
yourself. With proper planning and
professional advice. that paycheck
can be substantial. It can spell that
difference between a financially
uncertain rctircmcnl··or nne that is
virtually worry-free.
How can you write a retirement paycheck to yourself ?
By starting to plan for it now By
beginning a program of regular sav.
ing and divcrsilicd. tax -sensitive
investtng to accumulate the money
you'll need . And hy working with a
professional advisor who is specially trained in retirement planning.

suffered from bouts of physical
exhaustion.
"It's been really tough at times,"
says Lynn, who also lost a son, Jack
Benny, in 1984 when he attempted
to cross a river on horseback.
If her upcoming schedule is any
indication, Lynn's way of coping
with adversity is obvious: work, and
lots of it. She has performance dates
booked through the end of the year
and is recording a CD of country
standards along with remakes of
some of her own hits.
"They've been hits once, I don't
see why they can 'I be hits again,"
she says matter-()f-factly.
She's got another autobiography
in the works and says that when the
movie of this one is made, she's
going to put in some screen time.
"I'm going to play me in part of
it and my mommy in part of it,"
Lynn says.
Whereas "Coal Miner's Daughter" starts when Loretta is 13, her
new book starts with her earliest
childhood memory.
"I tell you, honey, I was shocked
when I realized what it was," Loretta says.
Well, what was it? ''I'm not
going to tell you what it is. You 're
gonna have to buy the book, honey."

the new roof can he applied overthe

Gravel over a built-up roof is

Stocks' volatility adds concern to Social Security debate
By WIWAII II. WELCH
USA Today
WASHINGTON - The stock
nwlr.et's recent volatility has dumped
a heavy dose of reality on the debate
over whether to add per.;onal investment accounts to the Social Security
~y, tem .

There's no good time for a bear
market, but Wall Street's decline even partially offset by last week's
gains - could hardly have come at
a worse time for those who want to
reshape the national retirement program to include market investments.
'" It's like a dash of cold water on
the debate," says economist Robert
Reischauer. former director of the

Congressional Budget Office and a
leading opponent of privatizing
Social Security. " It will wake people
up to the risks as well as the opportunities of investing through private
accounL&lt;."
Rep. Mark Sanford, R-S.C.. a
leading advocate of privatization,
agrees that the market turmoil makes
the debate much more difficult than
it was three months ago.
··A lot of people have never seen
a bear market ." Sanford says.
"They've been in a one-way ride for
the la.&lt;t 10 years. and that's not real·
ity:·
Sanford and other advocates of
pulling a part of Sucial Security into

private accounts say the marlcet is still
up over the long term.
And. they say, dips like this are to
be expected and don' t change the
financial rationale for investments.
But the decline comes ju.o;t months
before President Clinton plans to a.o;k
Congress to join him in corning up
with a plan to overflaul Social Security in an effort to en"'lre its future
solvency and improve returns for
today's workers.
Until now, advocates of privatizing a part of Social Security seemed
to be winning the debate. With Wall
Street enjoying a roaring bull mart.et
that peaked in mid-July. polls showed
Americans liked the idea of control-

ling liOI1Ie of their Social Security
payroll taxes in slo.:k or bond investments.
Clinton acknowledged the power
of the privatizets' arguments at a
forum on Social Security in laleJuly.
The leading proposals from bolh
parties in CongrcsA would divert 2
percentage points of Social Security

Insurer to settle
class action suit
COLUMBUS (AP) - Nationwide Mutual insurance polkyholders
allegedly misled by the company
when they houghtlife insurance policies may be eligible for compensation
thai could total up to S100 million to
settle a class-action lawsuit.
The company announced Friday
thai it has tentatively agreed to settle
a class-action lawsuit that could ben·
efit million for an estimated 650,000
customers.
··we think it is a fair settlement,"
Nationwide spokesman John Millen
said Friday. " It puts the potential for
litigation behind us."
The lawsuit was filed against
Nationwide and one of its companies,
Nationwide Life Insurance, in New
York State Supreme Court in Febru·
ary 1997. Policyholder.; claimed they
were misled when they bought one of
several types of life insurance policies sold by the company from 1982
through 1997. New York auomey
Marc Gross said.
The court gave tenUJtive approval
of the seulement Aug. 20 and anoth·
er hearing is scheduled for Dec. 17.
Gro" said some policyholders
were told that their life insurance
policies would have enough cash value that they would not have to pay
premiums atier seven 10 10 years. and
the policies could have enough value to pay for new policies or addi·
tional covtr•ge.
But he said customers were not
told that if interest rJtes fell from their
historic highs in the 1980s that they
would have to continue to pay premiums . Interest rates have fallen
dramatically since then.

Greenspan hints at interest rate reduction
By MARTIN CRUTSINGER
AP Economics Writer
SAN FRANCISCO- The Japan(&lt;e may not have offered new
answer.; to a deepening global financial crisis. but Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said the world's
most powerful central bank was
growing concerned enough to consider cutting U.S. interest rates.
A meeting Friday between Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin and new
Japanese Finance Minister Kiichi
Miyazawa had been billed as a show·
down. AI issue. as President Clinton
put it this week. was the need for a
"profoundly important" discussion
about Japan more aggressively

sides said: Japan insisted il wa.&lt;

who joined Rubin and Miyazawa for
dinner after a speech in Oakland.
Analysts said Greenspan's remarks
provided a clear signal the Fed stood
ready to cut interest rates to ensure
that the U.S. economy is not dragged
into a recession.

Swissair plane's
flight recorder ·fourid
HALIFAX. Nova Scotia (AP)Divers have retrieved Swissair Flight
Ill's Oight data recorder despite an
emergency that endangered their
lives, but experts say the "black box"
contains no information from the
final six minutes of the doomed
night.
CrJsh investigators had high
hopes after the data recorder was
recovered from the ocean floor Sun·
dny. But laboratory examinations on
Monday revealed that there was no
data from the last minutes right
before the MD-II jumbo jet plunged
into the sea off Nova Scotia late
Wednesday. killing all 229 people
aboard.
Vic Gerden, the chief cra~h investigator, said the·data recorder"stopped
once the plane dropped below 10.000
feet altitude. A power failure seems
probable. he said.
·
In a scare Monday night that was
reminiscent of last week's crash. a
charter plane belonging to a subsidiary of Swissair"s parent company
returned to Halifax shortly afrer
reporting smoke in its galley.
The Balair/CTA Airbus A-310
was on a Hight from Zurich to Vancnuver via a scheduled stop in Halifax with 144 passengers on board.
SAirGroup spokeswoman Beatrice

Tschanz said in Zurich. The smoke
was caused by a short-circuit, she
said.
··It was not an em&lt;rgency landing" and went without any problems.
Tschanz said. The plane continued to
Vancouver early today. she said.
In Halifax on Monday, Gerden
said the dala recorder from Swissair
Flight Ill was in good condition and
should provide useful evidence about
100 types of information ranging
from altitude and airspeed to whether
the plane's smoke warning lights
were on.
The data recorder. found at a depth
of 190 feel, nearly didn't make it to
the surface. Navy Capt. Phil Webster
said one of the two divers developed
a leak in his suit. and the pair had to
make an a.cent- clutching the black
box - much more rapidly than is
considered safe.
One of the divers became ill from
the rapid change in pressure. Both ·
were put in a decompression chamber, then taken to a hospital. Both
were recovering at home. Web!lter
said.
AI the cra•h site, in the Atlantic
five miles off shore, divers equipped
with hand-held sonar searched Mooday for the plane's other black boxthe cockpit voice recorder.

WASHINGTON - Along with

the IRS most is what happens to the
baseball.
