RUTLAND
"Some
have been able to watch, I
just haven't" said Margaret
Edwards in talking about the
old Rutland elementary
school, which is in the
process of being razed.
"I attended . there and my ·
kids went there, and I just
haven't been able to bring
myself arou.nd to going .up
there and watch it being torn
down."
Rutland is one of two
schools in the Meigs Local
School District being demolished following the move of
.elementary students into a
new buildipg last fall. Four
other former schools have
been sold or otherwise transferred for personal or special
· purposes.
The asbestos removal on
the two buildings was done
earlier by Keen and Cross,
Inc. The 'demolition work is
being done by Jeffers Coal,
Trucking and Excavating.
Last week demolition and
cleanup of the Salem Center
school area was completed
and work began on tearing
down the Rutland buildiil~.
Once the brick structure 1s
down, the basement wi II be
filled in, the debris hauled
•
away, and the land restored.
Tile walls of the old Rutland elementary school are coming down. It is the last of Six schools to t&gt;e disposed of following the Meigs Local Board of Education's building program , and is one of only two being
torn down. Jeffers Coal, Trucking and Excavating of Pomeroy is doing the work. (Charlene Hoefiich)

Superintendent Jack ·Payton,
who has bee.n with the school
system since he started teaching in 1975, said the district
has made several strides over
the past few years to improve

intervention specialists to help
students in need, instituted
after-school programs and
changed the curriculum when
necessary. As a result, Payton
said 44 percent of the district's
students go on to college.

said with a laugh of his veteran move. "I
fooled lhem with my blazing quickness."
Kings coach Rick Adelman knew how
important Miller 's play was.
" It y,:as huge;· he said. ··we usually don't
get the offensive boards. but maybe our
time was due. That was an enormous play.
If he doesn 't make that play, who knows
what happens. "
· Boozer hit two foul shots to ~nake it 9189, but Bibby penetrated in the lane and
made a nice pass underneath ro Divac,
whose layup sealed il with 24.7 seconds to
play.
"We did a . good job down the stretch
·moving the ball," Stojakovic said. ~we
played with the game on the line."
Ollie, who is losing hi s starting job· to
Mclnnis. had nine points. nine assists and
matched a career high with I0 rebounds for
Cleveland.
After scoring jus! I0 points - .all in a
I :29 span of the opening quarter - in the
first half, Stojakovic hit all four of his 3pointers and converted t..,o three -point
plays in the third as the King s opened. an
eight-point lead.
The Kings shot 74 percent ( 14-of-19) in
the quarter and made five of six 3s.
"We don 't worry about our offense."
Divac said. "We can score. When we play
defense and move the ball around. good
things happen."'
.
Sacramento. which shot a season-low 33
percent in a loss on Tuesday to Portland,
started out hot from tbe floor. But the Kings
went just 1-for-15 during a stretch of the
second quarter that allowed ' the Cavs to
build a six-point lead.
But Bibby hit two free throws and
drained a 3-pointer &lt;is the Kings tied it at 41

The (Dover-New Philadelphia) Times-Reporter, ]all. 16:
By tradi tion. those condemned to be executed go quietly.
Even during the excesses of the French Revolution in the I ate
18th century. the majority of nobles and others approaching
the guillotine did so with 'dignity.'

o~ Wednesday, Lewis Williams Jr. resisted attempts to
place shunts in hi s arms for lethal injections, requiring nine ·
attendants• to restrain him. He continued to vigorously claim
his innocence and call to God for deliverance until the drugs ·
took effect.
!-I.e was the tirst of nine to offer resistance at Lucasville
since the death penalty was reinstituted in Ohio in 1999.
Witne sses to the execution , including Williams' mother,
described the scene as emotional and disturbing.
Williams was convicted of shooting Leoma Chmielewski,
75. in the face during a 1983 robbery. He had undergone the
standard (and lengthy) appeals process and despite his
denials, the courts did not waver in determining he was guilty.
Regardless of the approach, the result was the same, and the
controversial debate over capital punishment as a deterrent to
violent crime will continue.
However, at least Williams got 21 more years of life than
Chmielewski, who had no appeals or pleas accorded to her.

SunJ).ay, January 25,

Whenever I write about
art, I get mail from the
Serious Art Community
informing me that I am a
clueless idiot. So let me
begin by stipulating that I am'
a clueless idiot. This is probably why I was unable to
appreciate a work of art I
viewed recently, titled:
'Chair.'
I saw 'Chair' at Art Basel ,
a big art show held recently
on Miami Beach .. It attracted
thousands of Seripus Art
People. who wear mostly
black outfits and can maintain serious expressions no,
matter what work of art they
are viewing.
This is hard. because a lot

mances' wherein ·arti sts ' do
somethi ng Conceptpal . such
as squirt Cheez Whi1z into an
orifice that has tint been
approved by the Pflod and
Drug Administraqon for
snack toppings.
Bui no .matter what the art
is, a Serious Art Person will
view it with the ~o mber
expression of a radi? Iogist
examining X-ruys 1of a
tumor. Whereas an ar1at&lt;wr
will eventual ly give ~ im se lf
away by laughing; or saying
' Huh '~' ; or (tni s is the mmt
embarrassing) asking Hfl at'tgallery person : ' Is ~thi s
wastebasket a piece of art'!
Or can I put my _g um. wrup~r in it?'

were a half-dozen speakers
making a high-pitched sonar

was the an: 'boop.' Sitting
outside on a folding chair
was a gallery person, smoking Marlboros. I wondered
what it would be like to fly
all the way from Paris to
Miami , only ,to spend four
days sitting outside an empty
shipping container going
'boop.' I would go insane. I
would have an apotheosis ·of ·
freaking desuetude.
.In another container, there
was a work that consisted of
a hole drilled in the floor, and
some weeds stuck in it. I
believe the price on that was
$6,000. While I wali examining it, I heard one Serious Art
Perso n say to another (I
swear): 'Wouldn't that be

I want to state, for the
record, that there was also
some very nice-looking art
on display. And I want to
repeat that I am a clueless
idiot. So you ·Serious Art
Peop le don't need to write

that you know MUCH more
about art than I do, OK?
So YOU buy the chair.

The school board hasn't
made a decision about what
to do with the four acres at
the Salem Center site. When
the land was originally transferred to Sa lem Township
and later to the Meigs Local
School District at the time of
consolidati on. the deed carried a provision that the land
would revert to lhe original
owner should it no longe r be
used for school purposes.
The original owner ha~ since
died and owncr.;hip of the prop-

erty is contingent on a fonhcoming legal opinion. "If it is owned
by the district, then it will be
sold," said Superintendent
William Buckley.
The land on which the
Rutland school is located will
be transferred to the Rutland
Volunteer Fire Department
which hopes eventually to
use it as th e site for a new
firehouse.

the one of 2003 So With most every thing on schedule, the league litle pictures on the girls side are becommg ·
increasingly clear.
.
While most prognosticators make
predictions prior to the season starting
- I tend to wait until the .week before
the tourney draw - I gue~s you could
call me a procrastinating prognosticator.
Anyway, armed with the knowledge I
have gamed throughout the season, I
will now discuss and attempt to prediCt
the outcome of our local league races
SEOAL
With Its big win over \'~s itin g Jackson
Thursday, Warren claill)ed a two game
lead over the Ironladies•with JU St four
games to play.
The two teams meet again in the season finale on Feb. 12. but I think by
that time, It will be too late
I predict that Jackson hands Warren
Its only league loss in that game, but
the Lady Warriors take w1ns over
Athens, Point Pleasant and Logan In
the meantime to clinch the outright
crown.
Jackson and Marietta fin1sh in a second place tie at 9-3. I think that Gallia
Academy gets it together and wins two
of its final three, t1nishing fourth at 57. Logan take s fifth at 4-8. followed by
Athens (3-9) and Point Pleasant (0- 12)
Still in contention - Warren (8-0),
Jackson (6-2) and Marietta (7-3)
Mathematically eliminated - Pomt
Pleasant (0-6), Gallia Academy (3-6),
Logan. (3-5) and Athens (2-7).

TVC Ohio
Meigs Is one of just two local girls
team s with a mathematical shot of winn·ing a league title this season, however. Its loss at Alexander Thursday was a
major setback.
The winner between Belpre at
Alexander Thursday Will ~o a long W\IY
In determimn g who will wear the
crown

A win by Belpre would s~cure at least
a share of the championship for the
Lady Eagles . Not mathematically, but
ih all likelihood - Alexander ensures
it se lf~ title with a win in that game as
well
Meigs has to win Its fmal three
league games, including a home makeup date with the conference leaders,
and hope for a lot of help to wm a
share But I don't see .that happening.
I think Alexander beats Belpre at the
Alley, and then takes down Vinton
County to win the title outright at 8-2.
The championship is outright
because I predict Meigs topples Belpre,
whenever they fmally decide to play.
So Meigs and Belpre share second at
7-3 followed by Vinton County (4-6),
Nelsonville-York (3-7) and Wellston
( 1-9).
Still in contention - Belpre (6-l ),
Alexander (6-2) and Me1gs (4-3).
Mathematically eliminated

VInton County (4-4 ), Wellston ( 1-7),
Nelsonville- York (2-6)
TV C-Hocking
There IS no suspense m the Tri- Valley
Conference Hocking Division, as
Trimble clinched the outnght title with
a win over Southern Thursday
The Lady Tomcats ( 14-0), who are
ranked 6th in the latest Associated
Press Di,vision IV poll, will most likely
fimsh the regular season undefeated. Its
two toughest tests will come at giantkiller Eastern on Feb. 5, and versus
Alexander m the' season finale.
As for the order of finish behind the
champs: I see Eastern, Waterford and
Southern in a three-way tie for second
at 6-4 followed ,by Federal Hocking (28) and Miller (0-10).
League Champion - Tnmble (8-0).

eliminated
Waterford (5-3), Eastern (5-3),
Southern (4-4), Miller (0-7) and
Federal Hocking ( 1-6).
Ohio Valley Conference
The Ohio Valley Conference race is
perhaps the toughest to call. The teams
are so close, that anybody can beat anybody else on any given night- plus its
only at the midway point of the conference schedule.
As far as Olll' local connection goes, I
really liked River Valley's chances
until it fell to South Point last week.
Every game is a key game in this
conference race, and I will not attempt
to mention them all . So ri'II cut right to
the chase.
I'm going to take Chesapeake as the
league champion. River Valley and
South Point both finish second followed by Fairland m fourth, Rock Hill
fifth and Coal Grove in the basement. &gt;-Still in contention - Everyone.
Mathematically eliminated - nonel.

Browns give Butch Davis two-year extension

BEREA (AP) .- The Cleveland
Brown ~ gave coach Butch Davis a
two-year extension Friday despite a
season in which the team lost II

through 2007, and gives him the
additional title of executive vice
president.
Davis joined the Browns in 200 I,
taking over a two-year-old expan sion team that had won just five
games in two seasons. He led the
Brown, to the playoffs in his second
season but injuries and a lackluster
oiTense kept the Browns from building on that success in 2003.
"He inherited a challenging ·situation in January of 200 I , and we are
in a much better position today than
we were three years ago," Browns

pre sident Carmen

statement. "We certainly have not

The
Browns
announced the contract extension with little fanfare or

which Policy had said wou ld be
made after the Super Bowl, provides
the Browns with coaching stability

the Browns dumped a coordinator.

was lired after the Browns blew a
lead t,n · the playoffs against '
Pittsburgh.
The Browns, however, have stuck
by Davis. Their commitment to him
comes as they look to add former
Green Bay general manager Ron
Wolf as a consultant. Davis said
after the season ended that he wanted to make staff "enhancements"
aimed at improving player evaluations.
The team d id not disclose financia l terms of Davis ' extension.
Indications were that it is in line
with the $3 million' a year he got

Municipal bonds offer tax benefits On the trail with the drovers

·.

~

If you're a[l investor. 2003
was a pretty ~ood year. from·
a tax standpomt. The new tax
laws lowered tax brackets
and cut the maximum rates
on long-term capital gains
and stock dividends to ·15
percent. Still, for 2004. you
may want to do even more to
' control your investment taxes
- so you might want to consider municipal bonds.
By investing in municipal
bonds, or "munis" you may be
able to ac!lieve significant
advantages. particularly if
you're in one of the upper tax
brackets. When you own a
muni, your interest payments
will be free from federal taxes.
and, if the municipality that
issues the bond is located in
your state, your interest payments may also be exempt
from state and local taxes.
In fact, the tax advantage of
munl.ct'pal bonds may be s·o
great that you'd have to earn
a considerable higher interest
rate on a taxable bond such as a corporate bond just to gel the same after- tax
return .
For example, suppose yQur
tax bracket is 25 percent, your
state income tax is 5 percent
and you buy a state tax-free
municipal bond that pays 4.5
Percent 1·nteres t· Y0 u wot1ld
have to earn 6.32 percent,,or
higher, on a corporate bond of
similar maturity and quality
to match the 4.5 percent yield
on your muni. This 6.32 percent figure is the municipal
bond's taxable equivalent
yield." And, your municipal
bond would provide you with
an even greater taxa!Jie equivalent yield if you were in a
higher tax bracket.
Municipal bond intere st is

free from federal taxes. but
some munis - particularly
airport and housing bonds mi~ht be subject to the alternat1ve minimum tax . If you
thi'nk you may have to pay
the AMT. you might want to
avoid these types of bonds.
Conversely. if you know you
won't be assessed tbe AMT
even if you bought · some
AMT-subject muni s, you
might be especially interested
in these bonds, because their
yields are typically higher i
than the yields on regular
munis.
Municipal bonds·are issued
in two. main categories:
General obligation bonds and
revenue bonds. General
ohli11ation hrmds finance the
ongoing activities of state
and· Ioca I governments. wh1.l c
l'l't·en!le hond!i pay for specil.·ic projects. such as airports,
h_ospita.ls al'h.i" T' other civic
1nst1tuttons.
So, when you invest in
munis, you' ll get more than
tax advantages - you' ll also
get the satisfaction of supporting val uable projects or
services in your own state or
community.
And that's not all. Consider
two other benefits you may
get from investing in municipal bonds:
Diversification -· By pure
chasing municipal bonds, you
can help diversify an equityheavy portfolio. Municipal
bond prices generally do not
move . together with stock
prices. And, if you hold your
municipal bonds until maturity, you can expect to receive
back the principal value, along
with the interest payments you
received along the way.

about 100. But sometimes,
there might be 5 or 6 groups
traveling together. Each
group would be separated
from the others by about one
mile.
. They would stop at some
farm, which might also have
a tavern, and here they would
. buy corn. This was a good
deal for the farmer as well.
He could unload some of his
surplus corn at·~ good price.
Some droves would consume

farmer's sons or daughters
would then shovel off the

In the evening. the drovers
would sit around the campfire telling stories of adventure. Since the boys from the
neighborhood would be present , t he d rovers a1ways
embellished these stories.
Some of the wild tales about
Mike Fink, Daniel Boone,
Davy Crockett and others
may have originated as
"drover tales ." The children
would sit, taking it all in.
Some even wished that they
would grow up to be a drover.
The drovers were early risers, according to the eyewitne ss account of John G.
Wilson. "Long before sunrise, they were up and on
their way. Their cries and the

loud crijcking of their whips
could be heard a mile. The
owner would not start so
soon; he stayed to settle their
bills and take a parting drink
with the old farmer. The_
drovers were paid 15 dollars ·
a month and their board and
transportation home by stage
and boat. They were free livers and generall y spent most
of their wages in Richmond
or Baltimore and reached
home no richer save ex peri-·
ence than when they left. But
the spice of danger on the·
roads and the sights if! the
cities were enough to balance
all."
To people back home, they
were heroes of sorts for having made such a bold adventure . They would bring home

Psychologist John M. de
Castro of the University of
Texas studied the self-reported eating patterns of nearly
900 subjects. He found that
people who ate more in the
mornings tended to have
lower overall calorie intake,
while those who ate more in
the evenings tended to have
higher overall calorie intake.
But don't fret if you can't
imagine forgoing an evening
snack for the rest of your life .
There's no magic to maintaining or even )~sin g weight -·
JUSt pay attention to what you ·
consume and increase your
activity to match or exceed it.
De Castro found that morning eating appeared to be
more satiating, or filling ;"!han late-evening snacking. If you
can enjoy a nighttime snack
without continuing to eat
until you feel full , and without ov~fdbing it on total calorie counts for the day, then
enjoy. No one plan will ever
work Jar everyone. Find a
healthy eating pattern that
works for you, and you'll be
more likely to stick to it.

The 2004 Nissan Pathfinder Armada is shown 1n this undated publicity photo: The Armada is the first shorter-wheelbase, full-size SUV with a five-speed transmission and head curtain airbags

(AP)- Nissan's first fullsize sport utility vehicle isn't
just as sizable as its major
competitors. It's longer. and
more powerful.
2004
Ni ssan
The
Pathfinder Armada also is the
first shorter wheelbase, fullsize SUV with a five-speed
transmission and head curtain
airbags that are standard. not
optional. on all models.
Add the Armada's· conve. nient fold -llat -into-the-lloor
third-row seats, a haughty V8
e.x haust note and a nicely
tuned suspension that keeps
the ride from being loose and
uncontrolled. It's easy to see
why Ni ssan oftlcials predict
s a~ s of 40,000 to 45,000 in
the first year.
.·
Starting manufacturer 's
suggested retail price. includin g destination charge, is
$33,950, which puts the new
Annada in the heart of full size SUV territory.
The 2004 Chevrolet Tahoe
4X2 starts at $34,995, while a
base , 2004 Ford ' Expedition
XLS .4X2 starts at $33,055
and a 2004 Tuyuta Sequoia
SRS 4X2 starts at $32, 165.
All, with wheelbases that are
in the range of the Armada's
123.2 inches, are considered
main competitors.

Nissan officials· ·. said the
Armada isn't competing
against larger full-size SUVs,
such as the Ford Excursion
and Chevy ·Suburban that
have wheelbases in the 130to 137-inch range.
Shoppers .can't miss the
fact the new Armada looks
from the front almost identical to Nissan's new full-size
pickup truck, the Titan .
Indeed, the two vehiclesbOth launched late last year
- share the same platform,
V8 engine and many other
parts as well as their Canton,
Miss ., assembly plant.
But don 't confuse the
Armada, which can carry
seve n or eight passe.ngers,
with the five- passenger
Ni ssan Pathfinder SUV,
which Nissan has sold for
decades.
The
long-running
Pathfinder remains in the
Ni ssan lineup, but it's a
smaller, mid-size vehicle
. which comes only with a V6..
The new Armada includes

consumers.
But everything about the
Armada, which is expected to

appeal to men with families
who want to ride in comfort,
is big.
In fact , -the n.early 207inch-long Armada is longer
than
the
205.8-inch
Expedition, the 203.'/-inch
Sequoia and 196.9- inch
Tahoe.
It's a big step up into the
tall ~ riding Armada, which
wears standard 18-inch tires.
In contrast, 16- and 17-inch
tires are the norm on the
Tahoe,
Sequoia
and
Expedition.
There's big space for
Armada passengers with 41 .8
inches·of front-seat legroom,
more than the Sequoia's 41.6
inches, the Tahoe's 41.3 inches and the Expedition's 41.1
inches.
·
The Armada 's second-row.
legroom of 41.9 inches is
greater than the main competitors', too . However, the
Armada's third-row legroom
of 32.4 inches , though better
than the Sequoia's, is less
than the . Tahoe's and
Expedition's.
Shoulder room in all three
row s of seats of the Armada
is greater than in the Sl!quoia
and Expedition, but not quite
as good as the Tahoe's.
And whe~ third-row seats

are used by passengers, the
Armada' s 20 cubic feet of
cargo room behind them is
close to the Expedition 's 20.6
cubic feet. and more than the
Tahoe's own 16.3 cubic feet.
But the Sequoia . can utTer
mure than 26 cubi c feet bac k
there.
Many shoppers are likely
to appreciate the Armada's
fold-flat third row. These
seats don ' t need 'W be
renluved to provide the maximum 97 .1 cubic feet of
cargo space .
But note this is less than the
II 0.5 cubi c feet of the
Expedition, which also has
fold-down-into-the-floor rear
seats.
The Armada's 305 horsepower and 3ll5 foot-pounds
of torque at. 3,600 rpm is palpable.

Why should infants

Real health requires a
receive the Hib vaccine?·-different kind of resolve=
LlsA .BURLESON,

RN

PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE
GALLIA COUNTY. HE!\LTH
DEPARTMENT

Through the years, the use
of vaccinations in infants and
children has decreased the
occurrence of ·diseases that
have taken· the lives of many.
One of the vaccinations that
infaftts receive' is the Hib, or
Haemophilus
lnfluenzae
Type b. Many parents knmv
that their children are to get
this vaccination, but are
unsure exactly what the vac- ·
cine protects against.
Haemophilus lnfluenzae
Type b is a serious disease
caused by a bacteria and usually strikes children under the
age of 5, mostly between. six
and twelve months of age.
Even though "influenzae" is
part of the name, Hib does not
cause the "flu". The bacteria
are found in the nose and
throat and are spread by
coughing; sneezing, or just
speaking closely with an
infected person. Older children and adults often carry the
Hib bacteria without showing
any signs or symptoms, but
are able to infect infants easily.
The symptom always seen
with this disease is · fever.
Other symptoms depend on
the part of the body affected.
Hib can result in sinus infections, earaches, and skin infections. Hib can also cause

meningitis, pneumonia and
blood stream infections.
· Hib disease is the leadiri.g
cause of bac terial meningitis in infants . Meningitis is
an infection of the brain and
spinal cord coverings,
.which can lead to lasting
brain damage and deafness.
If Hib meningitis occurs,
infants can suffer long-lasting neurological problems.
Some cases can be fatal.
Before the Hib vaccine
became available in 1988,
about 20.000 children· a year
in the United States became
iII with this disease and nearly 1.000 children died. Since
the vaccine began , rates of
disease among children have
declined by more than 95
percent. Many more children
would get Hib disease if we
stopped vaccinating.
Although there rs a
decrease of the disease,
infants are still contracting
the disease. According to the
Ohio Department of Health.
there were 6 confirmed cases
of Hib in Ohio in 2002. The
way to protect your infant
from this debilitating disease
is to get your child immunized with the Hib vaccine.
Vaccination should begin at 2
months of age, and then continue at 4 months, 6' months,
and then a booster between
12- 15 months of age.
Depending 'on the brand of
Hib vaccine that is used, the ·

ATLANTA (AP) - The
number of states hard-hit by
the flu has dropped to just
five from a peak of 45 right
before Christmas, anq the
death toll among children
have climbed to at least Ill ,
health
officials
said
Thursday.
Only Delaware, Minnesota,
· New York, Pennsylvania and
Vermont reported widespread
flu during the week ending
Jan. 17, according to the
Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention. Twenty
states were listed at that ·level
the previous week.
"I think we're at the point
where in most of the country,
tlu has come and gone, or at
least is smoldering along,"

said Dr. William Schaffner, a
flu expert with Vanderbilt
University Medical Center.
"We're all in recovery phase
and hope that it doesn't come
back. So far it hasn 't and
we're delighted." ,
Still, officials warned that
cases could rise in some communities, and a second wave
could
hit the country, because
·
influenza strains can peak at
different times.
Most of this season's ~c tiv­
ity has been from the tyre A
form of the virus. Outbreaks
of type B can appear late in a
flu season.
Fewer people are seeing a
doctor because of the flu. For
the first time since Nov. 8, the
percentage of outpatient vis-

its for the tlu, at 2 percent,
was lower than expected
nationally.
This flu season, Ill children in 33 states have died
from the flu, the CDC said.
Most of the children were
. very young, 'with the median
age at 4. Texas and Colorado
had the most child deaths,
with 12 each.
But whether the toll among
children is higher or lower
than usual is unclear, because
the CDC does not keep track
of all child deaths from the
tlu.
