Hargrove, and the aasistant state tourism director,
Risa Varasso Viswanathan. During the yesr, these
two with the _help of Gallipolis city residents will
develop a plao to attract more tourists to the area
in hopes of increasing spending in the downtown
area.
Kim Sheets Schuette, from the Ohio Valley
VISitor's Bureau, recognized the need for improv·

while, historic downtown area.
"Now that a lot of these building are in danger,
we have recognized that we need to preserve the
past,' said·SchUette: "We just need to revitalize the
downtown." ·
· Schuette, having heard of the grant during its
first yesr in 1996, decided that since Gallipolis

from tbe city. With the application, Schuette pro·

work on the local project ceased last Sunday.
A San Francisco, Calif. newspaper reported esrlier this

under Chapter 11 because it had not been paid for two
major construction projects it bad completed and was,
therefore, unable to meet the demaods ofits creditors.
Curtis Todt, a apokesman for AM~- Ohio's Westerville

if Atkinson plans to finish the $73.8 million project.
"Since the work stopped, we've been basically checking to see what Atkinson's final position will be. We waiil

·Ohio AG ruling all()ws public to know whereabouts of convicted sex offenders
By JIM FREEMAN
nme•~lnel Staff
POM OY - Finding out if a convicted child
· molester I es in your neighborhood may soon be as
easy as making a trip, to the sheriffs department- or
reading the newspaper.
Ohio residents may have access to information about
all sex offenders submitted to sheriffs departments, fol·
lowing a recent ruling by Ohio Attorney General Betty
Montgomery.
·
Montgomery last week ruled the public can access all
information about sex offenders submitted 10 county
sheriffs under a new state law requiring released sex
criminals to register their address upon release from
prison.
And Meigs County officials are getting
to

!""Y

oblige.
Meigs County Prosecuting Attorney John R. Lentes
said he is prepating a registration book for sex offenders
to be kept by the Meigs County Sheriffs Department,
adding the book will be part of the public .record and
open to public scrutiny in compliance with . Montgomery's order.
·
This means parents could quickly deterinine if a convicted sex offender is in their midst, or even open the
door for publishing in community newspapers the
names and addresses of sex offenders moving into the
county or released from prison.
.
On a personal level, Lentes said he approves of
Montgomery's decision, adding he believes people need
to know when they have sex offenders living nearby.
But don't expect to look at the book soon - there are

no sex offenders registered at this time, Lentes said. To
date, five Meigs Countians have been labeled sexual
predators but they are still in prison, although one is slat·
ed for release next August.
·
In addition, the controversy has not successfully hurdled all court o~tacles, he said.
Meigs Local Schools Superintendent Bill Buckley,
who under the current law must be notified of sex
offenders' whereabouts, said he supports the new law
along with Montgomery's ruling.
'The more we know about them (sex offenders) the
better we are able to deal with it, especially where
school-age children are involved," he said.
The chairman of a local children's advocacy group
was even more supportive of Montgomery's decision.
"They definitely should be published," said Norma

Torres, who heads the 60-member Meigs County Con;
sortium for Children, a group representing a wide vari·
ety of local family and children service providers and
. advocates.
"I have prayed for Megan's Law to come to us," she
said. ''As a mother I would want to know if a sex offend· ,
er lived nearby." .
.
She referred to a similar law passed in New Jersey
commonly known as Megan's Law- named for 7-year·
· old Megan Kanka who was raped and killed by Jesse
Timmendequas, a neighbor with a criminal record for
sex offenses against children. Timrilendequas. was sentenced to death in l11ne.
~·1 support this, if for no other reason, people who are
out to hurt kids won't want to live here,' she said.

Here are five ·princi.ples for everyday life

Having principle means that we

human we may need to strive to

that the wrong doesn't win out. Principle involves a comprehensive law
or rule which makes it very valuable
and important in distinguishing correct procedure or conduct.
When we understimd principles
we have a· solid foundation ih our
lives, a sense of direction or vision .

We don't need to do research or take
a poll to dctennine what is best or

Dear Editor,

Ohio celebrates its 200th birthday in 2003. The legislature and the go~­

Ohio Democrats may, be .dow·n, but certainly not out: Glenn ·
By KATHERINE RIZZO
Asaocllted Press Writer
WASHINGTON - He's the last
man standing- his political party's
only prominent figure and sole
statewide officeholder.
When Sen. John Glenn retires next
year, Ohio Democrats will have no
re-election choices at the top of their
1998 ballots.
But the last Democratic incumbent is sanguine and insists brighter
days are ahead.
"People that decry the state of the
pany need to look at the ebb and flow
.of party fonunes in Ohio," Glenn said
in an interview. "It wasn't many
yea~ ago that people were saying, 'Is
the Republican Party dead?'"
The Democrats' losses in the last

few elections - U.S. senator, govern or, secretary of state, treasurer,
auditor, control of the Ohio House
and Senate - won 't be permanent .
either, he said.
As long as they had Glenn,
Democrats weren' t shul out.
But after Glenn?
"I don'nhink we'll necessarily be
down to nothing after the next elec. tion," he said. "We've stood for
opportunity for all people, not just a
few an'd you can put together a pretty good campaign with that as the
center'piece.
With about a year and a half
remaining in his term, Glenn has
been engrossed in what may be his
final high-profile duty - heading the
minority pan of the campaign fund-

what kind of elder statesman he
might become, apan from talking in
general about how he would like to
get young people interested in public service and politics.
"People need to get· excited," he
said. "It's vitally important. It's all
about how people live in their homes
and work in their jobs."
·Democratic activists back home
hope he'll have the time and the inclination to put his enthusiasm - and
marquee value - into the 1998
races.
Unlike former Gov. Richard
Celeste, or Lee Fisher, former attorSen. Glenn
ney general and current gubernatorial hopeful, Glenn hasn't built political infrastructure, agree Democrats
ing abuse probe.
He dismisses speculation about and Republicans alike.

"If (Gov. George) Voinovich were
to hang it up, he's go1 a network, a
campaign machine that he can translate to other folks." said state GOP
spokesman Brett Buerck. "John
Glenn doesn't have anythi'ng like
that. If he says, 'Here, Mary Boyle,
here 's everything I got,' whal can he
give her? "
State Sen. Jeffrey John son agreed.
· " It's not like an endorsement"
from Congressman (Louis) Stokes or
(Cleveland Mayor) Mike While. "
said Johnson, president of lhe Ohio
Legislative Black Caucus. " When.
they endorse you, that puts at your
disposal their operation . They give
you people, they give you mailing
lists, they give you good advice on
how to make sure your message gets

out. '.'
Democratic labor activiSt Dav1d
Lauridsen said much the same thin@
- Glenn doesn 't have what most vet·
eran politicians can offer but has
intangibles the party has come to rely
on.
"John wasn't one of those that
really work~d to build either the party structure or his own structure. but
he has a persona that totally transcends·politics," he said. "Appearing
on behalf of another candidate, that
could be'tremendous ."
Another voice from the trenches,
fonner'pany director Patrick Leahy,
said the lack of a Celeste-type organization is one of the things for which
Democrats sl!ould thank Glenn .

Some school districts can't wait on funding formula revision
By JOHN McCARTHY
Associated Press Writer
COLUMBUS- Voters in school districts that need new buildings won't
confuse the issue with the school funding mess the Legislature is trying to
solve, a suburban district treasurer hopes.
Pickerington, a growing suburb east of Columbus, is putting two school
issues on the Nov. 4 ballot. Some districts have shied away, believing voters are in no tnood to consider funding issues while the state still doesn 't
have a plan of its own.
.

·
·
But Pickerington cannot afford to wait, said Dennis Mcnoski, district treasurer. The 6,800-pupil district is growing by about 300 to 350 students a year
··and needs new buildings to handle the newcomers, he. said.
·
"I think the state is talking more about operating the schools. Our prob·
lem is the growth," Menoski said Friday.
. ·
.
Pickerington is hoping voters will approve a 3.36-mlll bond 1ssue and an
0.5-milllevy that needs to be passed by ~ext June so the diStrict can quali fy for state school building money. .

decreased over the last decade. Despite a 37.5 percent increase
in mileage, 34 percent fewer trucks are involved in fatal acci~ents,
resulting in a 9 percent decrease in fatalities caused by acc1~ents
involving trucks.
. ·
.
.
.
(2) Fatal accidents rarely are caused by trucke.rs. Of all fatal
highway acciqents, only 12 percent involve trucks, and only 3.2
percent are caused by truck drivers. However, _in 71 perc~nt of fatal
accidents involving one truck and another veh1cle, the dnver of the
other vehicle is the one cited for errors.
.
·
(3) Alcohol use among truck drivers is virtually nonexistent.
,.,... __ ,.. 0.2 percent of truck drivers tested actually showed even a trace
of alcohol in their systems. Of truck drjvers involved in fatal
accidents, only 1.4 percent were intoxicated - for other vehicle,s, that
number is 20 times higher.
(4) The condition of trucks Is safer and continually Improving.
From 1989 to 1996, the number of trucks placed out of service has
de.creased 34 percent. Records indicate that of more than 100 items
on the safety inspection list, an average of fewer than two items per
vehicle actually need to be adjusted or repaired.

Feds throw out election
of Teamsters' president
WASHINGTON (AP) - As
'INmsters President Ron Carey faces
l'new union election, federal officials
m pressing ahead with an investiption of his campaign fund-raising
and the Teamsters' links to the Democ:ratic Party.
.
A federal reviewing officer on
Friday tlu:ew out last December's
contentious Teamsters election and
raised new allegations of a scheme in
which union contributions to politi. cal ' candidates allegedly were
swapped for donations to Carey. .
'· Election overseer Barbara Zack
Quindel ordered a new election
because of the alleged f!lnd-raising
tlbuses by Carey's supporters, forcing
carey into another race with opponent, James P. Hoffa.
' Meanwhile, Justice Department
altd Senate investigators have
pbtained documents raising new
questions about whether top Demoqatjc Party officials were aware of
Jll.t!I\S to lrade financial support for
Carey's campaign for union money
for Democrats in last year's federal
elections.
. Among the evidence are handv,Titten notes by Richard Sullivan, the
Democratic National Committee's
fOrmer finance director, that make a
cryptic reference to Carey and
$50,000 and other references to the
'INmsters support of get-out-thevote efforts for Democrats.
Investigators, speaking on conditiOn of anonylllity, said Sullivan's
notes were not turnc:d over to the Senate until recently and after the summer round of hearings on campaign

In throwing out last year's Teamlien election, Quindel said any hard·•hip ·a new election might cause was

"To avoid a rerun because of the

USA Today
A huge pool of warmer-than-normal Pacific Ocean water is poised to
give the world's weather its biggest
kick since the winter of 1982-83.
El Nino is back . .
As the Pacific's warm water
begins disrupting weather patterns,
forecasters at the National Weather
Service's Climate Prediction Center
in Camp Springs, Md., are making
their most detailed predictions ever of
what El Nino is likely to do to the
counuy ·through the winter.
If the predictions are correct, this
(all, winter and early spring should
bring torrential rain and heavy mountain snow to California, especially to
the southern pan of the state. The
southern USA from California to the
Carolinas will be wet with more and
stronger Gulf of Mexico storms than
usual, and the northern USA should
have a mild winter.
El Nino refers to changes in patterns of Pacific Ocean water temperatures and winds that have global
effects.
Normal!,, the Pacific's warmest
temperatures are west of the International Date Line. The warm ocean
. water creates the U:Opical Pacific's
largest and m0S.t frequent thunderstonns.

Every three to seven years, Wl!f111
water moves eastward to the coast of
Smith America, with the warmest
water and clusl!lrs of large thunderstorms 'moving to the central Pacific.
Changing the storms' location alters
jet slream winds that steer storms.
Storms following altered tracks disrupt normal patterns of wet and dry
weather as far away as Africa.
Not easy to predict
El Nino is the second largest driver of.the world's weather. Only the
warntings and coolings and changes
in precipitation patterns that come
and go with the seas!JDS have bigger
effects.
BurEl Ninos-when they'll happen and what they'll do - aren't as
predictable as the seasons.
·
In the USA, the 1982-83 El Nino
caused more than ·$2 billion in damage ftom storms and flooding_ in the
Pacific Coast, Rocky Mountam and
Gulf Coast states. But it saved $500
million in fuel bills with the ·East's
warmest winter in 25 years. In contrast, a . t976&gt;77 Et Nino brought
drought to California and one of the
century 's coldest winters to the Midwest and East.
Until this year, even when they
knew an El Nino was occurring, forecasters were reluctant to predict in
great detail what it was likely to do.
, "We were kind of happy (just) to

water) was going to be warm or

the CJ,imate Prediction Center.
This year 's more detailed predictions are a result of intense resean:h
prompted by the costly 1982~ 83 El
Nino; advances in' ocean-atmosphere
computer models; and detailed observations of what's going on, not only
at the top of the tropical Pacific and
in the air above it, but also more than
1,000 feet below the ocean.
Forecasters need to know the
depth of unusually warm water and
speeds and directions of underwater
currents to !rack and predict El Nino.
This data now come from 70 buoys
spread across the Pacific along the
equator. They were installed by the
Tropical Oceans and Global Atmosphere Program (TOGA), an international project, over a period of years
beginning in 1985. The project was
prompted by the devastation of the
1982-83 El Nino.
Before that · fateful season,
oceanographers and atmospheric scientists were just getting a handle on
how El Nino works, but they didn't ·
have enough data to give fum proof
that an El Nino was beginning, says
Vernon Kousky of the Climate Prediction Center.
" In October 1982, there was a
growing feeling that there was an El
Nino going on," he says. But little
data were available to confirm this
suspicion.
The only informl!lion about the
Pacific came from scattered measurements by a few ships and an
overview from satellites. But highaltitude haze from the April4, 1982,
eruption of the El Chichon volcano in
Mexico fogged the satellites' view. ·
Data collection has vastly
improved since then . The buoys have
been supplying constant readings
from the ocean, and scientists have
ieamed how to adjust satellite measurements-to take into account volcanic haze.
· Benefu:ial forecasts
Kousky is pleased as he compares
·this year's forecasts with what he and
ott.ers were able to say in 1982.
"Now, if we can help people with the
forecasts, we' re successful,''he say~ .

Michael H. Glantz, a social scientist who specializes in El Nino at
the National Center for Atmospheric
Research in Boulder, Colo., agrees.
.. The hard part is bow do you take
(forecasts) and tailor them to the spe-·
cific needs of industries or sectors of

Maddux outlasts Reds' 11-hit attack to help Braves win 6-2
By The Aasociated Pres•
Neither Greg Maddux nor Darryl
Kile is slowing down as the baseball
season moves closer to its final
month.
Both pitchers improved their
records to 17-3 Friday night and led
their first-place teams to victories.
Maddux struck out a seasOn-high
nine and won desp!te allowing a season-high .11 hits in seven innings as
Atlanta defeated Cincinnati 6-2, and
Kile allowed one run in seven
innings as Houston defeated Col-

orado 9-1. Both pitchers won their
I Oth straight decision.
Maddux, who hasn't lost in 13
starts since Baltimore beat him June
13, allowed. the most hits since
Montreal had II against him July 2,
1996. Maddux, who was helped by
three double plays, also won IOcon·
secutive decisions from May 23·
Aug. 4, 1995.
.. Any time Y9U get II hits off that
guy, you've got to beat him," Reds
manager Jack McKeon said. "He
didn't have his best stuff. We had too

many cai.Jed third strikes. We had
enough guys on base to do some
damage, to get more than two runs."
Mike Cather followed with two
perfect innings as the Braves won for
the fourth lime in five games and
improved 10 8-1 against the Reds this
season. '
"Before I talk about my pitching,
can someone tell me the last time we
won three games in a row?" Maddux
wondered. "I think things are start·
ing to turn around for us. That's the
important thing. "

The Braves are only 22-19 since
the All-Star break. but have now won
three straight for the first time since

Morrissey and his Redmen will be
reaching for even greater heights in
1997.
· The Redmen completed their second consecutive 15-win season in '96
and won both the Mid-Ohio Confer·
ence regular season and tournament
crowns before moving into Great
Lakes Regi&lt;in action for the first time
ever. However, Rio Grande'stitle run

Despite the loss of six staners
from last season's ·Moe championship squad, Morrissey is confident
about the 1997 edition of Lbe Redmen as he welcomes back five key
staners as well as a host of solid role
players. The off-season recruiting
campaign was quite possibly rbe
mosl successful ever with several of
the new players e~pecled to be
among Lhe starting II when the new
season opens Thursday at the Uni·
versily of Mobile in Alabama.
"We had a great season last year,"
said Morrissey. "Bur, we let one slip
away with the loss to St. Xavier. II
was a disappointing way to end the
season, but we learned whal we need
to do 10 get to the national champi·
onship l.evel."
Leading the ·pack of returning
slarters is high scoring striker Simon
Lowey ·who tallied 24 goals · and
eight assists in '96 for a total of 56
points. Lowey's sophomore performance followetl up a 61 point (23
goals &amp; 15 ~sists) freshman campaign.
Lowey enters '97 having been
named MOC Player of the Year

Potato .farming · once· common sight in Gallia
Countyts·Cheshire community during 1800's
By:

.

JameaSande
On one day in
1849 about 10,000
barrels of potatoes
were shipped from G~llia County to
the south. In 1873 some 10 barges
containing 20,000 barrels of potatoes left Gallipolis headed for Vicks·
burg and New Orleans. In the 19th
century Gallia County grew a significant amount of potatoes both for
use in the county and out of the
country.
In 18b7 there were nearly 1000
acre• of potatoes planted in the
coun.ty for the commercial market.
By I 88.1 it had increased to 1200
acres. By 1888 when the numpcr
had slipped to 850 acres, Gullia was
still 13th in potato production
among the 88 counties of Ohio. The
1.886 crop planted on 824 acres produced 72.000 bushels or about 87

bushel• to the acre.
In the early days of Gallia history
potatoes were grown on manured
clover •od. After the plot was
plowed, seed potatoes were dropped
in every third .furrow. Generally
speaking in these early days, farmers
did not usc large potatoes cut up in
pieces for seed. They preferred to
usc whole small potatoes. When the
potatoes were coming up the ground
was harrowed. A plow would be
brought in about early June to kill
the wecds. ·After that the potatoes
wcrc·Jeft alone until it was time to
dig them up.
Some of the early varieties plant·
ed in Galli a County included
Ncshannok and Pink Eye, both reddish in the fle sh. Other types grown
here before the Civil War included:
Peach Blossom and Baltimore Blue .
· In the 1840's the Rohan wa.&lt; promo!cd. It was advenised to even produce in some cases a bushes of pota·
toes in one hill.
There were two major problems

for the early potato farmer: beetles
and rot. The famed Colorado beetle
made its first appearance in Ohio
about 1869. There appeared in the
Gallipolis Journal in June of 1874
suggestions on how to deal with the
famous "western visitor". The rccom mended remedy was Paris Green.
It was supposed to be mixed I pan
Paris Green to 20 pans of flour or
one pan Pans Green with 50 pans of
Plaster of Paris. It could also be dissolved-one tablespoon to· 4 gallons
of water. By thesoundsoftheanicle
there must ·have been some. concern
on the pan of Gallia farmers about
using poison on something that
would later be eaten. The rot was a
blight that spread across Ohio in the
1850's and in some cases wiped out
entire potato crops. In the 1860's a
blight resistant variety called Early
Rose was introduced.
Throughout the 19th century it
cost the farmer about I0 cents a
hushes to grow potatoes. What he
would get back for his labors fluctu·

From cramps to colds'to depression, doctors are getting behind

DEAR C.G.: The mineral content of water differs according to where i1

'Look at that. You know, honey, if

"On this very piano, I was asked to
sing a couple of songs for Johnny
Mercer one night at a party. I was 7.
My mother wanted to find out if I
could sing. He said two words of
advice: 'Grow up."'
She rel"embers that after her
father died, Mercer "used to come
over three or four times a week to

loved the Whiting family. He was
constantly working with me on my
singing. He'd say, 'You did that well

Mercer also had her record "My

because both Maurice Chevalier and

Ms. Whiting bad long wanted to

It's almost time to harvest corn for silage :

By JENNIFER BYRNES
GALLIPOLIS - With summer flying by, harvest time will be here
before we know it. Those growers
who are concerned with han:esting

maturity of their corn crops for dry
matter content. According to Marc
Sule of OSU, determining the proper time to harvest corn for silage is an
important decision because the whole
plant dry matter content varies with
maturity, and will also influence ferCorn that is ensiled too dry

corn at30-35 percent dry matter (6570 percent.moisture .
Judging the dry matter content of
whole plant corn can by tricky. The
grain may be drying excessively,
while the stalks remain green. Corn
is commonly ensiled in an over-dry
state, and un(ortunately, dry kernels
are not utilized as well by animals.
The old rule of thumb is to chop corn
for silage when the milkline is 112 to
213 of the way down from the tip of
the kernel.
·According to Sulc, new studies
show that at 1/4 milk line, com is at
30-40 percent dry matter. Thus, use
the kernel milkline as a general
guide, but keep in mind that com ai
the 1/4 milkline stage is probably
very near the optimal time to harvest.
This is the proper time to determine
the aciual dry matter content, by
using a commercial forage moisture
tester.
For more information about when
to harvest com for silage, or the ensiling process, please . call the OSU ·
Extension office at 614-446-7007.

BLUE MOLD FORECAST: Blue
mold reports are coming in from all
over the county. Cases are ranging in
severity. As harvest approaches, the
most common question is to spray or
. not·to spray. It may come as a relief
to some producers that Ac.robat MZ
is not labeled to spray after topping.
[f the crop is young with a threaten·
ing case of blue mold, spray Acrobat
prior to topping. During rainy periods, apply Acrobat as often as every
5-7 days. For producers with topped
tobacco crops that have advancing
cases of blue mold -- keep in mind
that the crop will gain 200
pounds/acre after topping, thus cu~·
ling tobacco early to avoid blue
mold losses may not 'be economically rewarding. Early harvest is only
practical in severe cases of blue
mold.
PEPPER PRODUCERS : The
Riveview Farms ·pepper receiving

; · to do just that with a computer that
• . measures the comfort of pigs by the
· ·• way they position themselves at rest.
•· :
"You won't have to guess and you
: won't have to stay around all day to
: ·· adjust the thennostat. Instead, you let
, the pigs be the thennostat," said Xin
(pronounced Shin).
•
"It will be interesting to see if he
&lt;an succeed," said Jon Caspers, a
,: past president of the Iowa Pork Pro• ducers Association, which is financ:_ ing Xin 's work. "This (invention)
,_ • would llllow us to fine-tune the sys. · tern and ask the pig what is most
comfortable."
' A chilly pig will born calories just
, to stay warm, which is an inefficient,
: •~ use of feed, while a warm pig will not
f~llike eating at all.
"Right now, a lot of producers
•: .. compensate for their lack of know!; : edge by providing different environ; •• ments in the same pen. They might
put a heating lamp over part of the
pen, so if the pig is cold he can go
over there and get warm," Caspers
said.
Simply providing a constant temperature is not the answer, Xin said.
