Children of divorce have a tough enough time · without having a father who berates and speaks in a disparaging way about their mother. So, please hold the cheap shots, Dad. Those kids have enough to deal with. Dear Ann Landers: I am a 34-yearold single mother, divorced for six yean, with four children under the age of 15. I am totally miserable.

Spelling is the key to everything - it's the first step in learning to read and opening up the world around us. Even in our high-tech society, you still have to spell cor: reedy to :iccess the right file. And it's still necessary for the :simpler things in life, like reading instructions and nutri. tion information. , The fact that kids entering building spelling bees and advancing to their district competition can master spelling :isn't to be taken lightly. It's still an ip1portant part of the educational process and a heck of an accomplishment. . As February winds up, the Valley's spelling champions .will again ready their skills for furthe-r competition.

Children of divorce have a tough enough time · without having a father who berates and speaks in a disparaging way about their mother. So, please hold the cheap shots, Dad. Those kids have enough to deal with. Dear Ann Landers: I am a 34-yearold single mother, divorced for six yean, with four children under the age of 15. I am totally miserable.

Spelling is the key to everything - it's the first step in learning to read and opening up the world around us. Even in our high-tech society, you still have to spell cor: reedy to :iccess the right file. And it's still necessary for the :simpler things in life, like reading instructions and nutri. tion information. , The fact that kids entering building spelling bees and advancing to their district competition can master spelling :isn't to be taken lightly. It's still an ip1portant part of the educational process and a heck of an accomplishment. . As February winds up, the Valley's spelling champions .will again ready their skills for furthe-r competition. We wish them luck and the recognition they deserve for excelling in the classroom. . . · . . . · We know sports excites people - especially as basketball's "March madness" taKes hold on the high school ~eve!, but w~ are every bit as proud of our spelling champions and their achievements.

(AP) - Florida carried out its 6.n t execu!ion by injection today, just over a month after changing the law to give condemened prisoners the choice between lethal drugs or the electric chair. Terry Melvin Sirru, 58, was pronounced dead at 7:10a.m . He was sentenced to death for killing an olf-duty sheriff's deputy in 1977 during a drugstore robbery in the central Florida town of Longwood. The Florida Legislature, at a special session Jan. 14, approved giving death row inmates the option of choosing injection over the electric chair. Thirty-four other states execute inmates by injection. Florida stopped executions after the July 8, 1999, electrocuti.o n of ADen Lee "Tiny" Davis. Blood poured from Davis' nose, 1112king a plate-sized stain on his white shirt, , Davis' execution prompted the U.S. Supreme Court to aS!'!e to h~r a C1Seclullengilig Flon<la 'suseof!Fie electric chair. After the •tate law was changed to allow injection, the high court backed out of deciding whether the chair was cruel and unusual punishment. ·· Sirru, who unsuccessfuDy challenged the constitutionality of the electric chair, last week lost a bid attacking the method oflethal . injection. Late Thesday, the U.s. Su11reme Court and the 1 lth Cir. cuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta denied his appeals.. · He was convicted of shooting 55-year-;~>ld George Pfeil, a retired .

(AP) - Florida carried out its 6.n t execu!ion by injection today, just over a month after changing the law to give condemened prisoners the choice between lethal drugs or the electric chair. Terry Melvin Sirru, 58, was pronounced dead at 7:10a.m . He was sentenced to death for killing an olf-duty sheriff's deputy in 1977 during a drugstore robbery in the central Florida town of Longwood. The Florida Legislature, at a special session Jan. 14, approved giving death row inmates the option of choosing injection over the electric chair. Thirty-four other states execute inmates by injection. Florida stopped executions after the July 8, 1999, electrocuti.o n of ADen Lee "Tiny" Davis. Blood poured from Davis' nose, 1112king a plate-sized stain on his white shirt, , Davis' execution prompted the U.S. Supreme Court to aS!'!e to h~r a C1Seclullengilig Flon<la 'suseof!Fie electric chair. After the •tate law was changed to allow injection, the high court backed out of deciding whether the chair was cruel and unusual punishment. ·· Sirru, who unsuccessfuDy challenged the constitutionality of the electric chair, last week lost a bid attacking the method oflethal . injection.

Times for the last 36 years. His article about the deal - was penned in 1962, just before his family moved to the United Stales. He doesn't name names, but we can draw the conclusion that he was playing with Fran, his 9-year-old daughter. Fran's jump to three spades . was unusual. In England, it would have been treated as a strong jump shift. One feels Fran should have bid four spades. When her father doubled five clubs, Fran · must have been nervous about overruling him by bidding five spades. Still, double- . dummy, it takes a low-spade lead to ·net 800 points : spade lo the queen , .ace-king of hearts, heart ruff, diamond switch (or spade). As you can see, , five spades double\~ is easy to make because of the lovely diamond position. West led a club. After winning · -'with the jack, East made the · strange switch to the heart four. A reasonable line is to ruff, play a trump to .ihe dummy, ruff · another heart, return to du·mmy with a trump, and fun the hearts from the ·top. When they split 44, declarer is home, n9t needing luck in diamonds. If they are 5-3, she can ruff a club to hand for a diamond lead toward dummy's king. Instead, Fran discarded a. diamond at trick two, cashed dummy's top trumps, threw another diamond on the second top heart, ruffed a heart inhand, and led a . diamond for plus 850. · , I hope Fran pointed out that .with the ~ing-queen of spades, Alan should have redoubled!

The Meigs Local School Oistrict is petitioning lfor additional classrooms in its school building project. Superintendent Bill Buckley said the Ohio School Facilities Commission calls for the number of classrooms to be based on the number of students divided by 25, or a 25-1 pupil-teacher ratio. The .district is petitioning for classrooms since the Ohio Department of Education is hoping for a 15-1 student-teacher ratio. Buckley said it is unlikely the OSFC will permit the additional classrooms. He added the "!,>ency . ha• been consistent on this issue with districts throughout the state. The board also approved hiring Professional Services Industries · Inc. to provide environmental and geotechnical assessments on proposed buildihgs sites of the new elementary·schools: Buckley said the firrn will examine the sites looking for environmental .issues like gas wel)s, old strip mines and dumps.
