Stories from Sunday, June 1, 1997

To the editor: I read with interest the May 7 edition of the Southeast Missourian and noted the Random Acts of Kindness Week award your staff and newspaper received. These awards are not accidental, and they don't come easy. Gary Rust, Sen. Peter Kinder and all the staff at the Southeast Missourian have provided many people with a source of principles, truth and fairness that help guide the lives of many people -- especially the youngsters...

To the editor: Have you ever had one of those nights when your brain simply wouldn't shut down enough for you to sleep? You toss and turn and perform all kinds of rituals in your mind, but nothing works. You visualize nothing but pleasant things, count hundreds of stupid sheep, drink a glass of warm milk and finally wind up watching television. Well, have I got a deal for you. Insomnia sufferers of the world, unite!...

To the editor: I would like to take this opportunity to thank your company for the recent donation to the Southeast Missouri Crime Stoppers.

A debate is brewing in Cape Girardeau over whether or not mobile homes should be allowed in residential neighborhoods. Some feel if the quality is high, they should be allowed in neighborhoods just like any other homes. Others feel modular homes should be limited to mobile home parks...

The Cape Girardeau Chamber of Commerce has compiled and released a comprehensive report chocked full of statistics.

The 1997 session of the General Assembly that ended May 16 was by far the most hectic and taxing for me personally and, not coincidentally, easily the most rewarding in all respects.

Langston completes basic training Marine Pfc. Stacy A. Langston, son of Terry Langston of Jackson recently completed basic training at Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego, Calif. He is a 1995 graduate of Jackson High School. Taylor finishes training...

To the editor: In recent weeks various agencies have made comment about the risks involved in smoking. Tobacco was an important part of the economy during the colonial period of our U.S. history. Britain was a good customer in those early days. My grandfather grew his own tobacco, dried and cured it in his own barn. He smoked that homegrown tobacco until he died at the age of 88. It was very strong, and the aroma was not pleasant like many tobaccos of today...

How do Missourians view the record set by this year's First Regular Session of the 89th General Assembly? As might be expected in a world that simultaneously produces a Strom Thurmond and a Jesse Jackson, as well as a John Ashcroft and a Bill Clay, the reviews of the four and a half months of our state Legislature in Jefferson City are decidedly mixed. Here's a sample of what various Missourians have said, or might have said, about the 1997 session:...

25 years ago, 1972 Grant for repairing Cape Girardeau Juvenile Detention Home in Cape Girardeau and possibility of obtaining government aid for construction of badly needed new home were revealed at meeting of County Court; report from Southeast Missouri Regional Law Enforcement Assistance Council said 75-25 matching grant has been approved by council for financing repairs to old building, which has been criticized as being inadequate for caring for juveniles in trouble with law; report added there is possibility county might be eligible for 75-25 construction grant for new facility.. ...

I just finished reading an article -from the Wednesday, May 21, edition of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The title of the article immediately caught my eye: "As Year 2000 Nears, Many Look To Bible For Guide." The gist of the article focused on the millennlum and the Book of Revelation. ...

Patrolman Richard Schmidt waded toward a stalled truck Friday night after the heavy rains pushed Cape La Croix Creek out of its banks on Mount Auburn Road near Kage Road. Two other cars were also stalled out in the water at the intersection. Thad Schwepker never delivered the fast food...

Is Cape Girardeau a safe place to live? It's the million-dollar question for potential home-buyers, job-takers and business entrepreneurs, though not an easy one to answer. The statistics aren't conclusive: Reports of violent crime is down, but reports of crimes against property continues to climb...

ANNA, Ill. -- Union and Jackson counties in Southern Illinois bore the brunt of heavy rain Friday with flash floods, mudslides and closed roads.

A Cape Girardeau Chamber of Commerce committee has painted a statistical picture of the city's quality of life. But it isn't just a numbers game. The committee's goal is to provide the chamber with concrete evidence of both the community's good qualities and those that need improvement...

It's tough to measure quality of life when you're changing dirty diapers. A Cape Girardeau Chamber of Commerce committee spent the past year ferreting out facts about the quality of life in our city. The result: A report that focuses on job growth, high school graduation rates and other statistical stuff that looks good on bar charts...

Overweight? Scared? Not a problem. By mid-June, more patients of Southeast Missouri and surrounding areas will be able to receive medical examinations they either couldn't or were afraid to undergo before. Saturday, workers used a crane and removed a portion of St. Francis Medical Center's roof to begin installation of a new $1.6-million magnetic resonance imaging device. It will be three weeks before the device is operational...

The wait -- and it hasn't been a long one -- is almost over. Within about a week -- give or take a couple of days -- Southeast Missouri State University's new head men's basketball coach will be named. The four finalists named Friday to come to Cape Girardeau for on-campus visits this week really weren't a surprise. In fact, I had listed three of them as prominent coaches interested in the job just a few days after it came open...

Coaching changes seem to naturally occur every year on every level of athletics. But what has been happening in the athletic department at Perryville High this past school year could hardly be described as normal. Perryville public had its eighth high school coach leave the school since last summer, following the resignation of athletic director and long-time Lady Pirates' coach Steve Wunderlich this past Tuesday to become principal of Oran High...

SIKESTON -- Cape Legion Ford & Sons baseball team opened its season Saturday, splitting a pair in the double-elimination Chaffee Tournament. After defeating Perryville 9-0 behind the two-hit pitching of Jeff Lappe, Cape Legion fell 5-4 to Sikeston. Lappe struck out seven and walked two in going the distance. He also helped his own cause with a two-run home run...

Imagine a community with no trees. No buffer from the frigid January wind. No splash of color and sweet fragrance of blossoms for a spring stroll. No swirling, twirling helicopter seeds. No rustling of leaves on a breezy day. No shade from the July sun. No tree to climb. No place to hang an old tire for a swing. No nuts for squirrels. No brilliant colors on a crisp October afternoon. No piles of leaves to run and jump in...

Crime statistics gauge reported crime and not actual crime, a fact that police say can be misleading. "A lot of people put a lot of weight on crime numbers," said police Sgt. Carl Kinnison, who also teaches criminal justice courses at Southeast Missouri State University...

Property crimes and drugs currently top the list of Cape Girardeau safety concerns, police officials say, and there is a direct connection between the two.

The sun is at mid-morning which means that the big dappled shade doily cast by the oak lies squarely across the back walk as if some perfectionist could not bear to have it off center. One can see squirrel shadows on the ground as the furry friskies leap high above in the shiny leaves...
