In the 1983 movie “Uncommon Valor,” retired Col. Cal Rhodes tells the financier of an incursion into Laos and Vietnam to free Americans, including sons of Rhodes’ and the financier’s, held at a prisoner of war camp years after the war was over. Rhodes said he could not talk his son out of serving because of his family’s military history.
“It’s the only thing we are good at,” Rhodes, played by Gene Hackman, says as he traces his ancestors back to the Civil War. “It’s the only thing we want to do.”
WAYNESFIELD — Waynesfield Police Chief Nathan Motter proposed a village-wide ordinance to ban the use, possession and sale of synthetic drugs within village limits during Monday’s Waynesfield Village Council meeting.
The goal of the legislation is to ban the substance which has become known as “bath salts,” a recreational hallucinative drug which has become a problem in the county since the beginning of the year.
An area theatre group has been practicing hard for the past five weeks and has been putting the final touches on their upcoming musical.
The Waynesfield-Goshen Muchinippi Theatre presents “Seussical,” this Friday and Saturday beginning at 7 p.m. in the Waynesfield-Goshen School Auditeria.
The company picked this musical because their idea was to involve as many children as possible.
“We try to, in the summer, involve as many children as we can,” co-producer Pat Noykos said. “We have something where the kids can participate.”
