AccuW~ forecast

The show I attended was a sellout, as was Ute
one that followed. But the movie will need a lot of
capacity crowds to convince Miramax and other
film companies that, more than just good social
policy, it's good business to produce and distribute films like "Down In The Delta"
There's a lot more at stake here than profit.
Those who bemoan the lack of positive black
stories coming out of Hollywood can send the
film industry a strong message by turning out-in
droves to see "Down in the Delta." Church mcm·
bers should go by Ute bus load to see this movie,
tltc directorial debut of poet Maya Angclou.
The NAACP, which in the past has given tltc
nation's filmmakers a harsh critique, should rally
its members in support of tit is movie. It is the kind
of heartwarming story about a black family's lri·

neighborhoods that the civil rights organization .
bas long called on Hollywood to make.
·
For all those who complain that the film indus·
try only wants to make movies that glorify the ·
corrosive fringe of black life, "Down In The
Delta" is a test of tlteir willingness to support a
film which defies that stereotype.
And it's a test they can't afford to fail.

the first time in nearly two yem. ·
Geno Carlisle scored 29 points as

California upset No. 9 North
Carolina 78-71 Tuesday night in the
Pete Newell Challenge at Oakland,
Calif.
•
" We couldn't stop Carlisle, "
North Carolina coach Bill Guthridge
said. "We were all over him on several of those shots. It's uncanny, the
way he gets those 'shots off."
Brendan Haywood scored 24
points for North Carolina ( 12·3),

which played for the first time since
losing to Georgia Tech on Dec. 22.
The Tar Heels have their first lwogame losing streak since January
1977.
"TheY're very quick and athletic
and they certainly used that,"
Guthridge said of Cal (9-1 ), which
made 14 steals and forced the Tar
' Heels into 24tumovers .
At Le~ington. Jamaal MagloirJ:

had 15 points and eight rebounds as
No. 7 Kentucky routed Tennessee
State 97-47.
The Wildcats (11·3), coming off
losses to Duke and Louisville, shot
74 percent from the field in the second half to halt their first two-game
losing streak since the 1993-94 -season.
"We needed a game like this
heading into conference play 9n

against Aorida," said Ryan
Hogan, who scored 12 points in his
first career start. "We moved the hall
around and finally shot the ball the
way we can shoot it."
Kentucky, which shot only 40
percent from .the field in its two
recent losses, shot 56 percent against
Tennes$Ce State (4-5}.
"I was impressed with our passing and how we took c~e of the bas-

ketball," coach Tubty Sm1th wd,::
"We played . unselfishly.;:to score
points."

By G. SPENCER OSBORNE
Tribune Staff Writer
Control of the boards on both
ends of the court, effi cient ficld-~oal
shooting and a fast-break offense
that contributed to that efficient
shooting spelled a 73-38 victory for
the River Valley Raiders .over the
Wahama White Falcons in Tuesday
night's varsity boys' basketball game
at River Valley Hi gh School.
After senior forward Joey James
put the Raiders on the board with a
19-foot jumper 14 seconds after tip·
off. the White Falcons went ahead 4·
2 with 5:25 left in the first quarter
after two in·the-lane baskets from
JUnor forward. Beau Gerlach.
But junior center Jason Fraley's
first foul sent River Valley forward
Ryan Fowble to the foul line. Fowble
made both free throws , and the game
was tied at 4-4 with 4:23 left
Those ·foul shots started the
Raiders' I 0-0 run that got them
ahead to stay. With senior center
Mike Mollohan scoring the go-ahead
point, Fowble getting three more on
a behind-the-arc basket and James
ahead by eight with I :47 left.
Two free throw s from senior forward Sterling Shields trimmed the
Falcons' deficit to six with I: 36 left.
· After that, River Valley scored eight
Unanswered points in a 94-sccond

span extended inLo the second quarter.
After that run. Wahama never got
closer than nine points from then
until halftime.
River Valley 's grip-it-or-knoek-it·
away defense:
• Caused the Falcons to re gister
only three inswn ccs in which th ey

S,..t~e• .

Dear Ann Landers: Back in
October 1995, I wrote you a letter. I
was looki~g ·for Bea McGraw: a
woman my family met on a plane
from Russia. She gave our newly
adopted child a S20 bill as her first
American money. We did not thank
Bea properly and asked you lo help
locate her. You printed rny letter, and
sure etlough, we connected.
I thought your readers might like
an update .on our adopted daughter,
Valla: She just celebrated her 7th
birthday and began first grade. Her

fit 78-year-old, drives everywhere
and does a good job of running her
home. The problem? Sh' craves
attention and expects to f be ~nter­
tained and included in everything I
do.
My husband and I have full-time
jobs, and so do our grown children.
They are married with families .
Everyone is busy with their lives.
Mother is included, of course, in

all family functions. where all she
does is complain about how lonely
she is. She loves gossip and knows
everybody's business. She is very
critical of the grandchildren, so of
course they avoid her whenever po$sible. My husband tends her yard ,
and does her repairs. and I take her
to doctor appointments, but we cannot be a marriage of three.
'
Mom is very manipulative with

telling us how well Valla is doing
and how helpful 'and caring she is
toward the other students. She takes
gymnastics several hours a week
and is doing beautifully. She is a
happy child with a lively sense of
humor. We are very proud of her.
When you menti oned the Small
World Adoption Foundation in St.
louis, · the organ ization received
over 3,000 requests for information.
Despite the high cost of foreign
· adoption. Small World was able to
adopt out ovel 100 children who
otherwise wouldn't have had a
chance in life.
Small World recently had a
reunion party my wife and I attended. A couple we mel there told us
· about their newly adopted child and
his experience on the pl~ne trip
h0me. Of course, I told him about
our plane trip and how I wrote to
you about it. He then ~aid my letter
in your column was the reason he
and his wife adopted their little boy.
Ann, ·on behalf of all the people
you have helped, thank you. --Jim,
Charlotte and Valla Mielziner, St.
Charles, Mo.
Dear Jim , Charlotte and Valla;
l:.etters like yours gladden my heart.

Unfortun ately, during thi ~ happy se~9n . the need fo r blood

And t·he Christmas holiday seaso n is a highlig ht for the Barren
Family due to the annua l vi s it of a couple known as Nancy and
l cdd of Cardi ngto n. Ohio. who have come through sleet. ice.
:-.now. fog and high waters for the past 32 years to vi sit the fami ly
at C hn ~tnm.., time .
Nancy and Tedd have seen 18 of the 19 Barrett childre n grow
mtu aduhhood.
Parents of the 19 ·chi ldren were Wendell (Whimpy l and Eva
~ ho were l1fe!ong res ide nts o f Mei gs County. Wendell worked in
the coal mmes and later timbered in Mei g~. Galha and Vinton
Co unties. Eva was a ho memaker and cCitain ly had to he a busy
nne \\ hat "" llh the 19 youngs t er~.
Both · Wende ll and Eva arc now deceased . It is interesting to
no te that ·among the 19, chi ldren. th~re were 13 girl s and six boys
including three sets for twins-one se1 of girl s and two sets of a
hov and a Qirl.
·Minni e 'Barre tt Thompson . Midd leport , is the .· cldqt of the 19
childre n and remembers when her parents had five ·habies in diapers and takin g . bott les at the ~ amc time . And di vision of laJ)or
wasn't anything new for the Barren chi ldren. The o ldest chtld rcn
helped with rhc chores and housework as well as he lping in the
care of you nge r si blin gs.
Min me remembers evenings when Eva would read the Bible to
the children by the o il lamps and Wende ll would lead the young·
sters in singing some old songs such as " Bringing in the Sheaves"
and "You Are My Sun shine". No television or even radi o for the
big family which worked together to solve problems when things
got tough- and they did .
"We were one huge happy fa mily and Nancy and Tedd were
always there for us. They always knew o ur needs .a nd wants, espe·
cially at Christmas ..timc'"; Minnie recalls.
·
.
The Barren children- now adults, of course, came to look
upon Tedd and Nancy as Mr. and Mrs . Santa as well as ange ls as
the years rolled by and the couple maintain ed their yearl y C hrist-·
mas visit bringing gifts for the family.
This year there were 93 child ren, grandchildren and great- .
grandchildren o n hand when Nancy and Tedd made their visit to
the famil y on Dec: 12 at Salem Ce nter.
I would be remi ss if I didn ' t take thi s opportuntty to wi sh you
a healthy. happy and prosperous New Year.. May it be the best ever
for you and yours and may yo u li nd it easy to keep smilin g.

Today, hysterectomies J.rc mm.:h

A libroid becomes serious if 11

Questid n: I have a fr iend who
boasts that he can drink more than
the average person and not be drunk .
He says he can actuall y dri ve better
after fini shing off a six pac k. Could
this possibly be true" Arc regul ar
drinkers more immune to the effect&gt;
of alc ohol'' How should t' handle
him at my Ne w Year's party?
Answer: While moderat e drink in g i!, accep1ablc in our soc ie ty. your
friend 's behav ior is not. An yo ne
who reg ularl y drinks 10 the point of
getting drunk has a seri ous alcohol
problem . And. w hen a pcr:-.on i:o.

good. conservative "rule of thumb"
is that if )O U have had more than one
d nn k for each two hours that you
lrave been at a party. don' t drive.
Al ~o. remcrnhc r th&lt;
Jt inebriation is
generally brought o n quicke r if you
.
dri nk on an.cmpty sto mac h.
Regular consumption of alcohol
doc&gt;n' t change the effect of this
drug. however. the freq uent drinker
docs deve lo p a sense that he or she is
bs impaired by it. Numerous studIes have shown th ai this ··sen se of
cont rol" is actua lly imaginary. The
time required to make a dec h.ion and
then react to a driving situation goes
up "i th each d rink . reg ardless of
ho w at:~.:u s t o me tl the person is to
d rinkin g. So. when your friend has
-.. iolat cd the rul e of thumb I gave
earlier, you should not allow him to
d rive home rega rdless of how sober.

or in contro l, he thinks he is.
Statistics from the Centet'l for
Dise~e Control show 1hat about 42 •
percent of the fatal vehicle accidenl5
in this country involve alcohol and
that about 17,000 Amencans lose
their live s in alco hol-related acci·
dents each year. Every. one of the..
accidents is a needless tragedy.
The good news is that because of
concerned folks like you and
inc re ased law enforcement , 1he
number of alcohol-.re lated deaths
has decreased slightly o ver the p~t
few years·. You are to be commend·
ed for your concern about your
guests. Here are a few tips for you o r
anyone else who is holding a pany
this New Year's Eve:
- Suggest your guesl5 come in
groups and that each group se lect a
"designated driver."
- Make non-alcoholic beverages available. preferably served in
the same type of glasses as the alcohoi , for the de;ignated d river and for
anyo ne else who chooses not to con·
sume alcohol.
,.- Guests should no t be persuad·
cd to drink. nor ridiculed if they
choose not to.
- Snacking should be cncour·
aged .
~ Co ffee sho uld be served in the

IHI hour or so of the pany.
On the last point, let me make if
clear 1hat coffee does not counteract
the alcohol as some people believe.
However, it does offset drowsoness,
and a lengthy period of socializing
over coffee provides guests time to
sober up before heading home.
Anybody · includ ing your problem friend • who is obviously drunk
sho uld not be all owe'd to drive under
ANY circumstances. Instead , mmt
they ; lay overnight, go home with
somebody else or take a taxi. This
isn' t j ust for their safety and that of
other motori sts, but al so fo r your
protection. In some states you may
now be held legally responsible for
any injury the intoxi ca1ed person .
causes after leaving your party
drunk .

WASHINGTON (AP)- China's aggres- '
sive pursuit of U.S. technology, .including
sensitive mililary secrets, hurt national
security and calls for extensive reforms, a
House commiltce has concluded.
Commitlee members refused to discuss
specifics Wednesday after unanimously
adopting their report and did not release lhe
700-page document, much of which is clas•
sified.
But The New York Times reporled in
today's editions that the commitlce . concluded the Chinese stole some of this
nation's most sensitive military information, including nuclear weapons designs,
from American military laboralorics.
Those allegations of Chinese .thefl of
information go beyond lhe report's findings
about satellile deals with Chinalhat sparked
the original commitlec investigation.
The newspaper reporlcd that the satellite
deals by two U.S. aerospace companies,
Hughes Electronics Corp. and Lora! Space
&amp; Communications, helped Beijing's ability to launch sattlliles and rockets.
The report, which the committee
appr9ved unanim?usly, found the Chinese
have been pursuing U.S. military information aggressively for !110re than 20 years.
"These transfers arc not limited to mis·
sile (and) satellite technology, but cover
militarily significant techn~logy," said Rep .

"The seriousness of lhe findings and

The committee makes 38 recommendations for legislation and executive action to
remedy the situation, bul those recommen dations and the bulk of the report will be ·
made available later.
!
The Washinglon Post in today's c'ditions
said one o'f the recommendation's was that
. more export licensing authority be granted
to the Derense and State departments and
less to the Commerce Department.
Congress last year inserted a provision
into the 1999 defense spending bill requir·
ing that, beginning in March, satellite
export licensing authorily be transferred
from lhc Commerce Deportment - where
Clinton lodged it in 1996 - back to ihe
St~te Department.
Cox said more details of the classified
report would be provided to the.administration and Congress as appropriate, and
unclassified portions of the report would be
made public in the comi.ng weeks.
