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.

have in recent years produced 40,000
pounds of tobacco, were destroyed.
In some areas of Haitz's fann,

Haitz, 50, has lived on the 350acre farm ·overlooking Eagle Creek

He lost four calves and two cows,

cows and hogs - at half the usual

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

"We haire got numerous slips,"
said Musser who identified problems
in several areas. "We're trying to

Hoeflich also identified a potential

council members to consider purchasing a new telephone system for

A recent telephone problem temporarily halted access to the Pomeroy
Police Department, he explained .
He said a five-line system with

pollsters to rormulate hts programs,

Parson Pat and hts dtsctplcs wanl us
to think thetr rellgtous creed and thetr

Millions m re

By TIM FRIEND
. USATODAY
The quality pf life of older Americans is taking a historic turn {or the
better, ~bows a study being reported
Tuesday.
Research shows people 81'!' aging
more gracefully and are less likely .
to be disabled in their twilight,years.
The findings are a landmark in
aging trends, said RiChard S~zman
of th~ National Institute on Aging's
Office of the Demography of Aging.
. The key finding, reponed tn
Tuesday's ''Proceedings of .the
· National Academy of Sciences;"
Disabilities among the elderly have
declined 14.5 percent since 1982,
said Kenneth Manton, who led the
study at Duke U11iversity.
-or 26.9 .mi Ilion .people 65 and
older in 1982, 6.4. million were disabled. Of the 33.7 million elderly in
1994, 7.1 million were disabled c
That's less than the 8.3 million scientists had· expected after adjusting
for.population growth.
. 1
"Not only arc there fewer disabled people, those who are disabled
seem to have fewer disabilities,"
said Suzinan,

By Phillip Alder .
Yesterday I described a deal in
which a defender had to cash a winner
before getting a trump promotion.
When lbe defender didn't take his win·
ner, the d&lt;iclarer got home via a loser·
on-loser play.
There is a situation in which the de·
· clarer-should cash a side-suit winner
or .two - or three! - before moving
into the main stream or the deal.
Here, how would you play In both six
spades and seven spades after West
leads the diamond king?
This is a tough bidding hand.
North's jump to four spades is preemptive, showing a weak hand with a
lot of spades. South might cue-bid or
take a punt at a slam !bidding six
. spades immedlatelyl, but It would be a
gamble:
'
You can rulf five hearts in the dummy and five diamonds in hand. That is ·
10 tricks. So, in six spades, you need
two club "tricks. However, if you are in
.q seven spades. you need three club
tricks. The crux in both cases is that
you must cash those tricks before .
crossruffing.
·
In seven spades, cash three club
tricks , then carry out the perfect
·crossruff. Afterward, thank West for
not leading a trump. In six spades, yo11
should cash just two club tricks. If you
try for the third club trick, an opponent
· might ruff in and return a trump,
)tiDing the contract.
'
What hap~ens if you cross ruff the
first 10 tricks' Both opponents wiD be
unloading clubs. Then when you try to
cash your club tricks, you will get only
one. West will claim the last two tricka
with his lruJt!ps.
Cash side-suit .tricks before embark·
ing on a crossruff.

ODOT lists preference for U.S. 33 ·relocation

.The Ohio Department of Transpottation Tuesday afternoon announced a on April 22, 1993. with the authorization of Sverdrup to proceed with locapreferred corridor for a p~opose4 relocation of U.S. 33 from Athens to Dar' tion studies and environmental investigations for a proposed four-lane , limited access highway. ·
win in Meigs' County.
OOOT was consickring two possible corridors, both located west of the
'!Jle ultimate goal of the project was closure of a gap of the u.s. 33 corridod&gt;etween central Ohio and Interstate 77 near Ravenswood, W.Va., on
exisiing, twisting two-lane highway.
Corridor A, the westernmost route, was selected as the preferred corri· an alignment that minimized impacts to the social, economic and environmental resources within the study area, Pedigo said.
dor.
Tuesday's announcement followed two public hearings.
Accqrding to ODOT District 10 spokeswoman, OOOT selected the route
A public involvement meeting was held March 10, 1994, at an open house
based upon completion of the location studies and environmental investigations by i~ consultant, SverdrUp Inc. of Columbus, and upon public involve- at Alexander Middle School in Shade. Propetty owneis and interested resi. qents were shown the results of preliminary investigation and the basis for
ment and National Environmenlal Policy Act documentation .
selection of the two feasible alternative corridors- A and B.
·
Corridor A also provicks the least expensive route for co~struction An open house hearing was held earlier this year on Jan. 15 at the Ohio
approximately $54 million as opposed to approximately $74 million for CorUniversity Inn in Athens where more than 300 people viewed the highway
ridor B.
•
The preliminacy ckvelopment ·for the relocation of U.S. 33 was initiated ' alignments developed within each of the feasible alternatives . ·

todayI

A preferred alignment was not presented at the hearing because impact~
caused by each alternatiVe were comparable, with the exception of con•
struction costs, according to Pedigo.
.
Estimates for Corridor B were abcut $20 million more than A because it
is a Jonger route and requires more bridges, she said.
A final_environmental document will be submiUcd to the Federal High·
way Adlllmtstrauon someume t'n Apnl, she said.
··
As the project developed, ODOTs funding allocation for major new.con- ·
struction prompted the decision to build a two-lane highway on a four-lane •
nght-of-way. The. two-lane highway, called a Super-2. would include eight·
foot-wide shoulders and turn lanes.
.
·
By ojJtingfor a Super-2. a safe. modern highway could be huilt moch sooner than a four-lane, and the remaining pair of lanes could be built later·on
·
