  • Digital imaging improves area health care

     Quality health care has taken another step forward in Union County.

    Baptist Memorial Hospital-Union County has acquired a new digital mammography machine that produces a much better quality picture than the old x-ray technique.

  • Cheerleader facility needed

     The decision by the New Albany School Board to go ahead with plans to build a practice facility for high school cheerleaders is a win-win situation for the city’s high school and for district taxpayers.

  • A conversation with Huey

     Some of my best conversations are with Huey. He listens. And most of the time when I tell him something, I don’t get a lot of argument.

    I listen when he talks, too. But sometimes we don’t even have to talk. We’ve been friends for 14 years, and know each other so well that we anticipate what the other wants.

  • Ohio company to purchase Piper Metal

     Although it is too early to make a definitive statement, we think the purchase of New Albany’s Piper Metal Forming Corporation by Worthington Industries could be a good thing for our community. The deal is expected to close in about 30 days.

  • Consider options on animal control

     The city of New Albany has taken bids for an independent contractor to take over animal control in the city. Six proposed contractors have turned in bids, ranging from about $25,000 to $45.000 a year for a four-year contract.

  • Letter to the Editor

     The mayoral and other elections are finally over.  Every Saturday I was afraid I was going to be caught in my boxer shorts by some wannabe candidate!

  • Do geeks get the girls?

     We often have a discussion at our house about whether, in the end, the geek gets the girl.

    Having been a geek all my life, I come down on the side that they do. But it’s easier to believe that at age 63 than at age 17.

  • Let’s go out to see summer baseball

     The wait is over and the new collegiate baseball summer league games are underway at Legion Field at the New Albany Sportsplex.

    Four teams have been put together in the North Division of the Cotton States Baseball League, and all four teams will play their games in New Albany this summer.
