Trussell said yesterday he
expects to spend little or no
additional money on food
before the end of the year,
because the Meigs County
Jail has been closed all year,
and will remain closed. ·
·Tru ssell requested a total
of $Ill ,800 in transfers from ·
the food; housing and medical line items into his
salaries line item. In addition
to requesting the transfer of
$29,883.35 from J;lis food
line, · Trussell asked that
$62.000 be transferred from
the housing line, and
$20,000 from the medical

line, leaving no funds in the
food line, $15,367 in the
housing line, and $5.000 in
the medical line.
Commissioners
sai d
Thursday they will not
approve additional transfers
until they can determine how
much Trussell -ws in outstanding bills for tne year.
"We' ll keep a cushion until
we · determine what is
·owing," Commissioner Jim
Sheets said yesterday. ·' J
kriow $1.800 is owed to the
Southeastern
Ohio
Correctional Facility (in
Nelsonville) for housing

costs there, and we won't be
able to house any additional
prisoners there until that's
paid."
"However. I know that the
three .line items in question
- food, hou sing and medical costs - have balances
that well ex~eed what has
been spent to date," Sheets
"lid . "We still mu.1t be able
to anticipate an increase in
any of those costs between
now and the end of the year."
Commissioners have. in
the past. denied Trussell's
requests for funds transfers.

lay off 13 deputies and

There is a cloning lab at
Meigs High School unlike
any·other in Ohio.
· Vocational agriculture
teacher Tim Simpson began
teaching hi s students liow to
clone plants two years ago.
The school built an antiseptic cloning laboratory in the
agriculture department at
the high school that has
begun to reproduce Boston
ferns and venus flytraps,
which eat meat.
More than I 00 students
have cloned the plants and
Simpson expects · many

more will participate in the
cutting edge program in the
future.
Simpson said cloning can
help solve the world's food
. supply problems. Cloning
can help eliminate disease,
bad crop yields, and other
problems that create food
shortages. For instance, if
someone cloned a strawberry plant that was resistant to
disease, then there would be
fewer strawberries wiped
out because of-disease during the harve st. As the
world's population increases, Simpson said better crop
yields will be important to
solving a loommg food
' shortage.
In the short term,

Simpson hopes that what
the students learn from 1he
cloning classes can be used
to make money. Not every
place in the world is ·as perfect for growing things as
Meigs County is . he said.
Other places need flowers, .
plants and vegetable s
shipped in from considerable distances.
Simpson's class is trying
to find a way to successfully clone Boston fern s. If the
students can grow quality
ferns starting from test
tubes, the ferns can be
grown anywhere. This
would eljmmate any ship- ·
ping and handling costs

Revival planned
POMEROY - The Mt.
Hermon United Brethren in
Christ Church will be holding
a revival with the Rev. David
Canfield speaking beginning
with the 10.30 a.m. Sunday
service. The revival will coriti nue throu gh Wednesday.
Evening servtce will be held
at 7 p.m. Everyone is welcome.

I enjoy play ing golf as long
as I do not try to be competiti ve. But there are times are
that my compettti ve natu re
takes over and affects my
conduct.
Las t Frid ay aftern oon I
played nine holes at the
beautiful Riverside course in
Mason . It was the best round
ever. I even got the ball
across that pond on num ber
se ven for a par three . I boasted to others golfers that I had
an extraordinary round
On Saturday evening
Jeshua and I played togethe r.
The question stirred in me
whether I could play well
two days consecutively. To
top matters, Jeshua reminded
me how he had recentl y beaten me. So. my competitive
juices were rather hyped to
strike the ball well on each
swing.
However, holes three. fi ve.
and stx turned into lon g
walks of dt smay. Between
water hazards, sand traps and
trees, positive yardage came
at a premium of strokes. By
the time I got to number
seven, my duffer emotions
were hanging loosely off my
sleeves.
.
Yet, I was hopeful that I
could replay number seven
like I had the previous day
Ir has' occurred to me that,
unlike any other sport I have
played, focu s and concentration absolutely make no difference when it comes to
correctly sinking that ltttle
ball with a club. Thus,
despite my hopeful antictpation, when my eight iron
touched the ball just enough
to dribble it into the pond, I

Ron
Branch

spontaneously yielded to the
des ire to wh irl ybird my eight
iron with a ·line drive back in
the direction of my walking
cart ~ to teach the stup id
club a lesson!
But. somehow or another.
my etght iron got tangled in
th e ftn gers on my left hand.
and the re lease we nt dreadfull y aw ry. High into the air
it soared to th e top of that
tree , wh ich btanches overhang 1he water. After latching 11 securely, the branches
JOstled up d llcl down like
some sort oJ gol f course
taunt Both Jeshua and I
stood thete mornentanly
shocked "nd stlent.
Unless it has smce fallen,

It was at the altar of repentance early Sunday morning
before anyone else arrived
that it was as though God
asked me the question. "Ron.
what would cause a golfer to
tee then tree an ctght iron'?"
I res ponded, ''Lo'rd. thou
knowest. It is because l do not
know the game of golf very
well. and it brin ~s untold anxiety and fru strauon."
By v,ay of contrast, many
people are tryin g get throu gh

life on the bas is of understandi ng like my attempts to
play golf. People do not
know how to live with the
greatest amount of joy and
satisfacti on, and it stimulates
untold disappointments, anxIeties, and fru strati ons. There
is critical reason for it.
It ts found in the fact that
there is little · understandm g
about the Word of God.
Thi s is poignantly underscored from a chapter in the
book of Nehemi ah. During a
time of g re~ t tension and
uncertainty. the people heard
God's Word read in light of
their partt cular circumstances, and they wept when
they heard it.
But time was taken to
ex plam the Word to the people. wh tch led them to adJUSt
spi rituall y and ca used them
to rejoice. Their ltves gamed
a greater sen se of securit y
and peace because they made
the effort to understand
God 's princt pl es for livmg.
Therefore, they came to realize that "the JOY of the Lord
is your strength." The Lord's
joy is significantl y attac hed
to Hi s Word.
When the Scripture says to
"let the Word of Christ dwell'
in you ri chly in all wtsdom."
it ts for the disti11ct spintual
benefit to your personal life.

Bridgeport Diocese will pay $21 million .in sex abuse settlement
compassionate."
Lori said all but one of the
16 priests named in the settlement are no longer active in
the church. The Rev. Martin
Ryan was acc used of miscondu ct with a 17-year-old
woman 25 years ago and is
not considered a threat to
children , church offictals
said. Three of the pnests are
dead.
"This settlement represents
vindication for all the survivors of clergy sex abuse and
is an acknowledgment of their
very personal ordeal s," said
Cindy Robinson, an attorney
representing the victims.
The victims suffered prob,
lems includmg depression,
difficulttes wtth relationships
and attempted suictdes after

BRIDGEPORT,
Conn .
The Bridgeport
(AP) Diocese announced a $21
millton settlement Thursday
with 40 people who said they
were molested by priests as
children, and the bi&gt;hop publicly apolugized to the victims.
The payout is believed to
be the third-biggest settlement by a U.S. diocese since
the scandal that has rocked
the Roman Catholic Church
broke in Boston in 2002.
"Let me express my personal remorse and the remorse of
the ent tre diocese for the
harm' that was caused in the
lives of so many tndtviduals,"
Bishop Wtlham Lon said. He
said the settlement ts an effort
to "do what is right, just and

their abuse, said Jason
Tremont, another attorney for
the victims.
'They ' re really a great
bunch of people that went
through a living hell,"
Tremont said.
The settlement is the second in two years for the diocese, whtch covers some of
the wealthtest towns in the
country,
including
Greenwic h, Westport and
New Canaan. The diocese
reached prior settlements
totaling $16.7 million and
involving 47 claims of sexual
abuse, church officials said.
"I would like to thank God
for fipally bringing this journey to an end and my prayer
now ts that all ot: the survivors and their familie s find

closure and peace of mind."
said Mario 0. Jaiman , one of
the victims.
Jaiman, 38, said he was
abused several times, starting at
the age of nine. "It causes you
to assume guilt for an act you
have no control over," he said.
Lon said most of the
alleged abuse took place in
the 1960s and 1970s.
Attorneys for the victnns,
however, said the abuse contmued into the early 1990s,
when New York Cardinal
Edward Egan was Bridgeport
bishop.
Victims have claimed in
lawsuits
again st
the
Bridgeport Diocese that
when their parents complained about the abuse to
diocesan officials and were

told it would "be taken care wnh

Everybody has opinion on
Buckeyes' offensive offense
BY RusTY MILLER

COLUMBUS - Everyone's gol
an opinion on why Ohio State's
offense is .so offenstve.
Some think it's a malter of
putting everything together.
"We're still kind of trying to find
that niche where we gel that chemistry going and we keep the
defense off the field and get some
sustained drives," wide receiver
1\fichael Jenkins said.
Some think it is nothing in par·
ticular.
"I don' t think there is any one
aspect of the offense you can point
to and say, ' No problem,"' quarterback. Craig Krenzel said.

walked off with the MVP
award.
Wakefield, who relieved to

Games I and 4 and started
with a scoreless inning.
Boone, acquired from
Cincinnati on July 31, then
homered into the left-field
seats, setting the old ballpark
shaking. There wasn't a doubt
from the moment it left his bat.
It was the tirst pennant-winning, extra-inning homer for
the Yankees since Chris

played.
"I never thought of a curse,
but I always said they had bad
luck," said Stott, who lives a

Kerry Wood back to back,"
the Cubs slugger said. ' They

The Marlins' odds against
winning will be even longer

DENVER (A P) - Kobe
Bryant will probably be
ordered to stand trial for
rape but it remains to be
seen if pro sec utors have
er~o u gh evidence to convict
him, many lega l experts
said.
During a two-day preliminary hearing that ended
Wednesday, both sides
showed hints of their strategy. Prosecutors alleged the
NBA superstar forced himself on the Eagle woman
while Bryant 's attorneys
attacked· her credihi lity.
"This is just the beginning
in terms of the evidence and
at a probable cause hearing,
you put on the minimal
amount of evidence that you
think you need in order to
get over the probable C&lt;\USe
thresho ld ," tormer Denver
Karen
prosecutor
Steinhauser said Thursday.
" I would imagine there 's,
going to be a lot more wming and that 's why people
should not make value judgments at thi s point in time
on· the strengths' and weak nesses of the case." ·
Judge Frederick Gannett
hoped .to decide by Jvlonday
whether to order Bryant to
stand trial ·on the sexual
assau lt charge. A 19-yearold Eagle woman accused
the Los Angeles Lakers'
guard of raping her june 30
at the mountain resort where
she worked. Bryant has said
the two had consensual sex.

Winning the 2002 Daytona 500 has been the highlight of Ward Burton's career, as Burton (center) celebrates
with family, friends and Bill Davis Racing teammates In victory lane.

Ward ·restarts career
Burton parts ways with Bill Davis Racing, off to drive No. 0 Pontiac
By Monte Dutton
NASCAR This Week

.
F

or Ward Burton, it's time to start over
'
again. Since the final nine races of the
1995 season, Burton has been driving the
cars - first Pontiacs and then Dodges- of
Bill Davis Racing. In Davis' familiar No. 22,
Burton has won five. times: at Rockingham ,
N.C., in 1995; at Darlington, S.C. , in 2000 and
2001 ; at Daytona Beach, Fla., in 2002; and at
Loudon, N.H., in 2002.
But the relationship between Burton, the
older of racing brothers from South Boston,
Va., and Davis grew old this year.
Over the weekend , Davis announced that
Scott Wimmer will be taking over the driving
·duties in his Caterpillar-sponsored Intrepid af·
ter Sunday's race in Martinsville, Va. Burton,
who will tum 42 on Oct. 25, wiU move to the No.
0 NetZero Pontiac of Haas CNC Racing, in the

Valley

race at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Oct. 26. ·
"When I went there (to Davis' team), it was
a relatively new team ," Burton said. "We
worked together, put together a successful
program.and won some races. But sometimes .
circumstances present themselves that you
don't have control over. There comes a point
where it's time to move on."
Burton's 2002 victory in the Daytona
500 was the highlight of his career.
Even though he won again later in the
season , consistency was a problem.
Burton finished only 25th in the
Winston Cup points standings.
This year has been a tough one
for all involved . Only four times
has Burton finished in the top 10.
His best finish to date was a sixth
at Watkins Glen, N.Y., in August.
"I'm looking toward the future,
not the past," Burton said.

Everything's not fine
I recently read a letter from one
of you r re aders aski ng wher e the
money goe s that is collected from
fines. I was ve ry disappointed to
hear that the money was given back
to the drivers by how they finish in
the points standings.
Why doesn 't NASCAR stdrt a
foundation - like the Make-A-Wish
Foundat ion - and he lp terminally il l
chil dren or adults experience a oncein-a-li fetime experience of going to a
race or meeting their favorite drivers? If NA SCAR is truly the No . 1
spectat or sport, then a foundation of
this sorris worth looking into.

appre~ended, on foot, near
his home on Collin.s Road.
Hoover pled innocent to
the domestic violence and
resisting arrest charges
before Meigs County Coun
Judge Steven L. Story
Friday. The charge of felony
fleeing must be addressed
by the Meigs County Grand
Jury if it is' to proceed,
because Story is unable to
accept a plea on felony
charges.
Pomeroy
Attorney
Christopher . Tenaglia was
appointed to represent

Hoover. A preliminary hearing in the case has been set
for Oct. 30.
Story issued a restraining
order preventing Hoover
from contacting the victim
or her family.

Patrolman Na1e Lather were
called to a residence on

scene, but returned as the
officers were taking statements from the alleged victim.
When advised he was
under arrest, Hoover left in
his truck, and travell!d on
Route 7A to U.S. 33, and
then to Route 7 to his residence, where he continued
on foot through a field . He
was appre hended by the
Pomeroy
officers,
a
Middleport officer and an
Ohio State Highway Patrol
trooper, Proffitt'Said.

absence.
Trussell
Tru sse II
said Friday
it could take up to four months
to re.1eh the bottom of a stack
of warrants and ci vii papers
which have awaited service
during the period his staff has
been laid off. Trussell laid off
his entire staff of I 3 deputies
and all but one of his office
statl in mid-June, when his
salaries fund was depleted.
By virtue of a $29.000 funds
transfer approved by Meigs
County ComnuSSloners on
Friday. those officers returned
10 work at midnight on Friday
night . Thev are guaranteed at
least four · weeks' work. and
Trussell and commissioners
have expressed hope thai
funds remai ning in Trussell's
original January appropriation
will be able lo keep the staff at
work until the end of the year.
"1'here are a lot of papers that
need to be served, and thai's the
tirsl priOrity now that my smff
has rerumed," Trussell said
Friday. ''Deputies serve warrants,
and I have been unable to do so
since they 've been off work."
Trussell was unable to say
how manv warrants. summonses and other documents remain
unserved. With the help of a
part·time administrative assistant. he has manned the sheriff's office by himself, operating office hours in the morning
and working in the tield and
answering calls from the public
in·the afternoon and evening.
Trussell said the rerum of
deputies will also allow for the
investigation of a rash of breaking -and entering incidents
which have gone unsolved. ·
