That's not true ror mariJuana - largely because the pharmaceutical compauses that generally finance drug studies haven' t figured out a way to make
money off mar•Juana, and the federal governmentts worned about scndmg
out ms xcd ssgnals whslc 11 wages 11S war on drugs.
"I dsdn't make that dcctsion," Thomas added "If somebody with some
real crcd&lt;bllsty devetors some sound SCientific evidence that smokss;sg marIJUana does something that no other substance does, lhen absllhltely it
deserves another look "
ManJuana advocate Tomas Salazar Isn't holding his breath.
· " It 's very hard to get nd of 60 years of _pmhibltsomst rhetonc," said
Salazar. who lobbied against repealing the medscal lnarsjuana defense on
behalf of the Sandusky County chapter of the Nauonal Organszatson for the
Reform of ManJuana Laws
"They want to allow sick people to usc very powerful drugs, and thert
doesn't seem to be any worry about abuse or ssde effects," he added
Not that Salazar is opposed to Thomas' pam b1ll
"A doctor ss m a beucr position to dsscem the medscal condiuon and nec~ssary treatment of a pat1ent than a polluc1an IS. "
That"s one of the main arguments manjuana advocates used to support
the med~eal use defense
But wsth lhat slnpped out of state law. diSabled Ohsoans msJ!ht JUst have
to ask thcsr doctors for the hard stuff.

Both would'rather I not split hairs on

if u pregnancy has gone that far,
11 ought to be taken lo term. Frankly,
as an abortson supporter, I can think
of no good reason - other than that
whsch I've already mentioned - to
perform a late-term abonson. For
most people who take side on this
question, abbrt1on is an all-or-nothins
proposition. Reason be damned.

at some point in lime during the past
'three years had ·suffered, a heart
attack.
' He was scheduled to undergo bypass heart surgery al the Columbus
hosp ital~ay since he has several
blocked cries. And, I'm sure you
will re~, II that Bill's wife, Louise .
has been undergoing some health
problems for severa( years. Bill's
taken good care of her in that time

Judge Roben Buck advi ses thai
motorists are required to have proof
of insurance coverage in their motor
vehicles at all times these days and
arc required to.show that proof when
slopped by an officer.
Proof is in that Jitt.le card that
your insurance company sent you
and suggcsied that you place it in the
glove compartment of your vehicle.
Now if y&lt;&gt;u are unable to show ·
.proof of insurance coverage, the
officer will mark a slip which he or
she gives you. The Bureau of Motor
· vehicles receives notice and send~
you a leuer indicating thallherc .is a
problem. If you don't respond to the ·
C'o mmunication showing that you do .
have insurance then your license can
:J)e revoked and bottom lino--your
• cost for geuing it reinstated is $125.
, ' In a recent column · I presented
some information from a program
~eld for ' the observance of the ·
sesquicentennial in Ohio. That program held in Middleport and
Pomeroy marked the I ~Oth anniver'
sary of the seldcmenl of the Northwest Territory. A reader points out
that another sesquicentennial celebration was held . in 1953 and that
apparently was in observance of
Ohio's becoming a stale.

and socialize with them regularly.
.: You probably do, too. but you are

A cross-dresser can be your attorney, your physician. your child's
kinderganen teacher or your drug; : gist They should not be labeled
"peculiar." Actually, they are sensi-

ina side of themselves. ANI .JIIeset the m:ord sttaiJhl once! and for
all ·· they are not gay.
The gentleman whose Jherapi51
told him to give lip cross-dressing
needs to find another therapist.
Cross-dressing fills a slrollg need in
some males, and they should not be
asked to hide a pan of who they are.

Ohio farmers lose topsoil to flood
WEST UNION (AP) -To Ohio
farmers , it was precious topsoil.
Downriver. it . was just mud and

Some farmers say that flooding
along the Ohio River stripped so

farmland that it could wipe out this
year's crop.

Agriculture.
Van Hoose said the flood w.Shed

could be years before the farm recovers. Many of his tobacco beds, which

have in recent years produced 40,000
pounds of tobacco, were destroyed.
In some areas of Haitz's fann,
three to four feet of earth washed
away, leaving only rocks.
Haitz, 50, has lived on the 350acre farm ·overlooking Eagle Creek
·his whole life. He counts himself
among the fortunate.
He lost four calves and two cows,
and had to sell about a ·dozen other
cows and hogs - at half the usual
$425 price - because the fences that
contained them were washed away,he told The Cincinnati Enquirer.
Much of the feed used to fatten his
livestock was ruined in the flood.

Damage caused by recent flash
flooding and an Ohio River flood
dominated conversation during _Monday night's meeting of Pomeroy Village Council.
David Ballard of Bock Street,.and
other residents of the Butternut
Avenue area, urged council to investigate the feasibility of a flood control system for that low-lying area.
During floods. water from the
Ohio River flows into the area
through storm drains, Ballard
explained. He suggested the village
investigate the installation ofa backflow valve and pump to keep the area
dry during floods .
"It's worth checking out," Ballard
·said. "It would save a lot of problems
for the town ... and for the residents."
Council President John Musser
said he would check out the feasibility of such .a system. ·
· Charlene Hoeflich of High Street
approached council concerning the
slip on Legion Terrace, which is in
front of a rentl\) property she owns.
The slip occurred during heavy
rains on March 1..
"It is deteriorating further," she
said.
Mayor Frank Vaughan said the
. sireet department" has contacted a
. contractor to get an estimate and

added that work could stan about
three or four weeks after the estimate
is received.
Musser said getting the work done
will likely depend on the village getting flood assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
"It needs to be done ... the quicker
the better," said Vaughan, who said
village officials have been meeting
with FEMA officials, including
attending
a meeting .. held this morn..
mg .
"We haire got numerous slips,"
said Musser who identified problems
in several areas. "We're trying to
attack them aiL. : We're working on it.
Hoeflich also identified a potential
problem ·on High Street along a road
retaining wall.
In other business. Vaughan as~ed
council members to consider purchasing a new telephone system for
the Pomeroy Municipal Building.
A recent telephone problem temporarily halted access to the Pomeroy
Police Department, he explained .
He said a five-line system with
two lines to thepolice department
and lines to the mayor's office, clerk's
· office and water office would cost
from $1,200 to $1 ,800, depending on
the system purchased.
