Area's farmers face ongoing price-cost squeeze in WV counties
West Virginia growers in Monongalia and Preston face a price-cost squeeze with feeder calves selling at 28 to 30 cents a pound last summer. WVU experts warn production costs rising, corn prices spiking, and many cattlemen losing money. Local agents urge efficiency moves and market adjustments while dairy and feeder calf sectors brace for a slow recovery ahead of fall 1976.

Sea Gull theater review on Chekhov production
A Studio Theatre production of The Sea Gull directed by Jon Whitmore earned quiet distinction through subtle insights. Karen Calvert Irina Arkadina and Ellen Pitz as Nina give strong, nuanced performances, while Ralph Marquiss Jr. as Konstantin struggles with intensity and tragedy. The cast’s restraint and the minimal sets heighten Chekhov’s gentle pessismism and the play’s timeless frustrations.
