By GLINT CLAYBROOK
Hogansville's newest
restaurant- The China Cafe
-opened on a Friday the 13th

The restaurant at 1879

ness in China.
Joe Zhou, who was a chef
at a five-star restaurant in
Shanghai will be the head
chef at the new Hogansville
eatery, where patrons can
enjoy beer or wine with their
meals, except on Sundays.

Cultural Arts Society Plans First
By CUNT ’A.AYBI~X)K
Toni Striblin wants
Hogansville's cultural arts
programs to match the
growth that seems destined
for the city, which is already
reflected in the number of
new homes going up here in
three new subdivisions.
So, in addition to helping
to rehabilitate the city's old
amphitheater, she's also
heading a new Cultural Arts
Society.
First meeting of the group
is planned for Saturday at 9
a.m at community Bank and
Trust, in the bank's meeting
room.
"The theme for the
Christmas Parade and the
date for that event must be
solidified at this meeting.
"Also, the first steps will be
taken to ut into place board
of directors," she said.
The Cultural Arts Society
will be a non-profit organiza-
tion for the p~ of devel-
oping the cultural arts in
Hogansviile, she said thJs
week in a press release.
With the refurbishing of
the amphitheater on Main
Street next to Hogansville
Elementary School and her
hopes of refurbishing the
main auditorium in the old
Royal Theater - now City Hall
- Striblin is seeking to round
up others in her adoptive
home town who are interest-
ed in "working in the much-
needed areas of historical and
Cultural significance."
She wants the Cultural
Arts Society to help "high-
light our talented people and
children, educate our youth
about our culture, our histo-
ry, our creativity and let them
have hands-on opportunities
to find their talents."
The Society, she said, will

When .Bray needs to pass,
he has plenty of speed to go
to in Mikko Ogletree, Shawn
Strozier, and James Dawson.
Alex Matthews will most like-
ly be the starting tight end.
"This offense requires
both power and finesse to be
successful", said Giddens.
"Our offensive line will be the
key to our running game."
Anchoring the line will be
Josh Stargill, Matt Jeter,
Jared May, and Chris Skipper.
Callaway has something
this year that has been miss-
ing in the past couple of years
and that is depth. The
Cavaliers run at least two
deep at every position.
"I can see a lot of players
competing for playing time
and that's a good thing~, said
Giddens.
Probable starters on the
defensive line will be
Courtney Rhones, Justin
Whaley, Rico Mitchell, and
Bean Sheltor~
Linebackers Chris Doyle
and Derrius Mahone will fill
the holes with Dreke
Patterson, Shawn Strozier,
and Rahman Keyton in the
defensive backfield.

The vehicle was valued at
about $22,500 and electron-
ics equipment and $150 in
cash was also missing,
according to that report.
In a bit of good news for
the department, City
Manager Randy Jordan told
the City Council on Monday
evening that most of the shedt
rock is up in the new police
headquarters building on
Lincoln Street and that paint-
ing and other interior work
is next on the agenda for that
building.
It will house offices, hold-
ing ceils and other facilities
for the department and is
being built at a total estimat"
ed cost of $400,000.
Funds for the new
quarters came from
drug funds that police offi
cers found over the
last year, which totaled more
than $1 million and also fund"
ed the purchase of several
new police cars at no cost to
the city's taxpayers.
