Summers County Profile
Steve Ross
by Sheri Benson
Born in Beckley to Glenna Big.
gers Ross & Lonzo M. Ross, our
profile Steve Darrell Ross says he
"feels at home in Summers County .
The reason? "Because of the frequent
visits to relatives here all of my life."
His relatives are many,including
Haynes, Biggers, Evans & Johnson
residents. Steve has a comfortably
large, caring family including 4
brothers and 3 sisters. His grand-
parents, Summers Countians
Thelma Haynes Biggers & Guy Big-
gers, both now deceased, were often
visited by Steve and his family. =I
can remember a closeness to my
grandparents. The hunting,fishing,
hiking around in the country." he
recalls.
Steve attended Woodrow Wilson
High, Marshall University, Beck]ey
College, Raleigh County Vocational
& Technical Center, and has a de-
glee in electronics engineering.
Which brings us to him & Summers
County. = Through a mutual friend,
I met Jimmy Costs and decided to
establish myself in Summers County
as its electronics services technician.
That, he has done. Since 1984 he has
been repairing electronic equipment,
the last two years servicing Sum-
mere County as Jimmy's T.V.'s elec-
tronic technician, and since Janu-
ary ofl99l its sole proprietor. "Jimmy
Costs wanted very much to see
Summers County continue to have
an electronics service available. In
attempting to continue on for him, I
very much appreciate the supper-
tive patronage of Hinton's people."
he said. "I believe in providing
customers quality & convenience
for their electronics needs. I give
free estimates in the shop, will look
at anything electronic. As sole pro-
prietor, I can save them money. It
costa twice as much for repairs if
they have to send it off. And in the
position I'm in, I can offer a better
warranty than the markets' compe-
tition."
Although Steve Ross is not mar-
ried, he's%eeingDeniee ". Heenjoys
listening to jazz, fishing & hunting.
To be thought of or remembered as a
person who can easily understand
the young people of today and pro-
vide an example to them is what he
wants. What kind ofexample? As he
would say, Phat patience & endur-
ance can pay off in success--- not
forgetting there's a God."

Two W.Va. high school students
got a first-hand look at life in Japan
this summer, and they discuss their
experiences on the new season of
WSWP-TV'slocal interview program
=An Evening With." Hinton High
School senior Emma Chantlett-
Avery, and Paige Kessler, a 1991
graduate of Woodrow Wilson High
School in Beckley, discuss their
experiences on the program airing
Wed. Sept. 18 at 11 pm, and repeats
on Sun. Sept. 22 at 2 pm. The epi-
sode also airs during WSWP's week-

LETTER TO
THE EDITOR
Wake Up
Dear Editor:
Wake up, APCO customers! Get
ready to pay for the grandest con-
sumer rip-off in the history of our
state - "THE APCO RIP-OFF".
Through its ability to increase
our electric bills at an "accelerated
rate", APCO is getting ready to soak
its W.Va. customers for approxi-
mately 400 million dollars, in order
to pay for the building of a 765KV
transmission line across southern
W.Va., to transport electricity to Va.
Over time, without APCO giving its
W.Va. customers one extra kilowatt
of electricity, billions of dollars in
profits will be made by means of this
line.
Think of it! "THE APCO RIP.OFF
guarantees that we, their custom-
era, will give them $400 million dol-
lars, PLUS the billions in long-term
profits our gift will "generate', and
promises nothing in return but
higher electric bills for all! =THE
APCO RIP-OFF" is absolutely
"shocking , isn't it!
If you support I'HE APCO RIP-
OFF", contact your nearest APCO
manager. If not, contact your near-
est governor (348-2000 or 348-3588).

This year, 122,000 American men will leam that
they have prostate cancer. About 32,000 will die of
it this year.
Every man age 40 and over is at risk. One out of
every 11 men will get prostate cancer; one in nine
for black Americans. Many men don't know they
have prostate cancer because it can occur and
spread without any symptoms. A simple one-min-
ute exam can'lead to early diagnosis and effective
treatment.
The Good News
Prostate cancer can be cured if diagnosed early.
