Lord vows to rid South Carolina of video gambling
Lord and his Alliance announce a plan to target video poker in Lexington County, citing a 1942 Revenue Department law allowing beer and wine permit actions on complaints by two or more local property owners. They will inspect shops selling beer and wine with video gambling, aiming to remove gambling while preserving alcohol sales. Prosecutor Mabry notes videotaping is not illegal and trespass could result if asked to leave and refuse to comply.

Surveys show fat calories declined from 42 percent in 1965 to 32 percent in 1996, yet many rely on reduced-fat snacks while neglecting vitamins. Dietitians warn supplements cannot replace balanced foods and note beneficial phytochemicals may be missing from multivitamins.

Rose Hill's Rise and Fall Then Modern Uses
The Rose Hill site began as a late 19th century venture and evolved into the Rose Hill Art Center in a converted stable. In the early 1990s it became the Rose Hill House of Studies hosting conferences tied to the Episcopal Synod of America. In recent months backers wrestled to raise funds to keep the college afloat as pledges lapsed and budget woes ended the institution.
