'South Pacific' Makes A Beautiful Destination

As this year's Wagon Wheel Theatre summer season continues, there's one thought that keeps coming back to me. Regardless of the play, this year's acting company is truly an amazing professional bunch. And when you put this mesmerizing troupe into a truly American play such as "South Pacific," throw in some detailed scenery, put the actors in the appropriate garb and let director Roy Hine have his way with it - sit back and prepare yourself for a treat. Set on two islands in the Pacific during World War II, the story builds around two primary relationships.First, there's the romantic relationship between Navy nurse Ensign Nellie Forbush (Jennifer Dow) from Little Rock, Ark., and the older French planter, Emile de Becque (Robert Joseph Miller).A second love pairing involves Lt.Joseph Cable (Jeremy D.Cohen) and young native girl Liat (Vivian Chiu).

Local Residents Give Views On Clinton Scandal

Some are embarrassed, others are saddened, but nobody's surprised about President Clinton's newest sex scandal. While some people interviewed Thursday by the Times-Union said they were saddened, many said Clinton's alleged affair with a White House intern fits a pattern that's continually come to light in the past five years. Most of the 10 people interviewed think the allegations - if proven true - will not lead to the president's downfall. Gwen Jackson, who was at Warsaw Community Public Library learning about home schooling, said she was most bothered by allegations that Clinton may have attempted to coerce the intern from telling the truth.The latest incident was the last straw, she said.
