promoted to Staff Sergeant.
Charles Fisher of Union said
his son Mark arrived in Saudi
Arabia approximately one month
ago from Fort Bragg, North Caro-
lina. He is serving with the Army °
504 82nd Airborne, I'hlngs are
pretty rough over there," Mr
Fisher said. "It's awfully hot, and
they're into the sandstorm sea-
son, too. One of the biggest
problems I see Is with the mail
service. I can get a letter from
him in about ten days, but Pve
sent quite a few, and he just
doesn't seem to be getting many
of them. That's been very frus-
trating, and I believe people need
to write their congressmen to
ask why this is such a problem.
One of the greatest things our
boys need is to hear from us. It's
awfully hot, and there's not
much for them to do."

the slow mail. "It's very hard on

Todd I nganacre has been in

parents are Bill and Darlene
Longanacre of Ronceverte. Mrs
Longanacre said she received a
letter from her son three weeks

Plans call for the re-construc-

its original configuration. Part of
the dam has already been rebuilt
and Mr Tuckwiller spends three
days a week at the dam taking
readings on the stream required
by the federal government.
"Assuming all goes well we'll
get our license in September
1991. We will be in production
by September 1993," Mr Tuck-
wilier says. Once the license is
granted, actual construction of
the wicket gates and power

the installation of three induc-

ported the 12-foot pie. Sheets of
tin were then placed over the top
to retain the heat. The pie was
finished in one hour and ten
minutes, after which approxi-

About one-half was eaten; the
remainder was thrown away
later in the day. Russell Jessee,
one of those who sampled the
pie, said. "It tasted good. The
crust was thick, and the filling
was thin, but it tasted just fine."

were of elementary and junior

of the joint effort. "Never in my
