After the seniors examined their time capsule, this year's second-graders buried their own. Among items buried in a plastic bucket were a class picture, drawing of Clifty Creek's new playground, a school calendar and several newspaper articles detailing the significant news events of the year, including building a new city bridge and the opening of the movie "The Phantom Menace." The second-graders were invited to return to Serra 's house on May 27, 2009. Other students will return each May from this year on as Serra rotates 10 time capsules buried in her flower bed. Serra's husband, Jim, once asked his wife what would happen if they decided to move. "She said we would have to take them with us," he said.

Serra had about 20 students in her class in 1989 including Lorraine Booker, who was killed last year in a fire. The seniors found Booker's letter that they gave to members of her family. While the students enjoyed reading the letters they had written to themselves, they were touched by thoughtful letters written by their parents. "Dear beautiful daughter," one letter read. East senior Shawn Dunbar managed to salvage the entire letter written by his mother that talked about how she was "tearful" writing the letter and thinking of Shawn 10 years older.

"I feel that you are going to be a great success," she wrote. Serra remembered her 1989 second-graders as a close group and hoped the time capsule project, in some way, encouraged a continued closeness and a way for the classmates to encourage each other despite difficult times.

"Dear myself," began a letter from Columbus East High School senior Brandon Allen dated May 16, 1989. "I want to be a archialigist." East senior Joey Martin wrote that he wanted to be a doctor, a dream he still has. In 1989, their "favorites" included sports stars Michael Jordan and Pete Rose and television shows "Alf and "Diff'rent Strokes." One second-grader in 1989 wrote that his favorite move was "The Killer Tomatoes." They also found old friendship bracelets, a computer floppy disk and photos destroyed by water. The evening was filled with laughter and a few tears. "Some of it's sad because one of us couldn't be here," Martin said.

STUDY (Continued from Page One) The 22,0000 women selected to Erticipate nationwide must be at ist 35 years of age and have an increased risk of breast cancer. Not everybody screened will be eligible, Tuell said. The study will last five years, and participants will take part for the whole time Once approved for the study, the women will have visits with CRH's oncologist, answer questions about quality of life and undergo periodic blood work, mammograms and Pap smears. CRH will be among 13 other Community Cancer Care sites around Indiana participating in the trial, including Community Cancer Care of Seymour. Information: Tuell at 37S-5547.

Man surrenders Associated Press CONVERSE A man with a history of violent outbursts held police at bay for more than six hours Wednesday after his wife accused him of beating her and holding her captive overnight. Christopher L. McClanahan surrendered peacefully to Town Marshal Paul Hillsamer about 12:15 p.m. after more than an hour of negotiations with Indiana State Police troopers. 2 (Mil Oil Total cost for projects scheduled for the next five years is about $7 million.

The board, which owns the airport, will apply for about $6 million in federal funds, Schalk said. Ross said other projects only outlined in the plan could become concrete later. Those include instrument landing systems and an extension of the runway, Ross said. The board owns about 2,000 acres, but the facility only takes up about 1,000. The airport leases that space to other businesses.

1,000 acres will be addressed in today's meeting. "Columbus Municipal Airport has so many strengths, there are really no dramatic changes in that part," she said. Schalk said the plan asks that the businesses serve aviation, be community friendly and be an economic development tool for the city. "Some of the parks and industries that are out there right now are really doing that, and they're increasing the people flow out there," she said Indians players will sign autographs on the concourse from 12:45 1:30 pm ii iM.wrf..
